mr. stewart's basketball hypothetical? i thought that was pretty good. what the coach what significantly contributed to the loss, he'll talk about the missed layup rather than the missed desperation throw. each would count for two points, assuming it was within their -- [laughter] >> very hard for me to translate the amount concept into performance on the basketball court, but mr. stewart's other example was a contribution to a charity, and i certainly would accept the notion that if bill gates and i each contribute $100 to a charity, i've made the more significant contribution, but that's because we're using contribution in that context to moon something else. we're using it to mean donate or give. not talking about cause sawings. >> the basketball thing is to make it parallel to what is at issue here, the question should -- you should ask the coach, which of the -- you lost 101 to 100. which of the 101 points contributed most to your loss? [laughter] >> i assume the answer is that some done. >> the one that was the layup. he would not answer, the one t

mr. stewart. >> mr. chief justice, and may it please the court -- i would like to begin by reinforcing two of the points that mr. clement made. the first is that what aereo is doing is really the functional equivalent of what congress in the 1976 act wanted to define as a public performance. as the chief justice said, one potential way of looking at this is that aereo and companies like it are not providing services, they are simply providing equipment that does, in a more sophisticated way, what the viewer himself can do. it's a plausible way of looking at the world. that's what the court in fortnightly and teleprompter said, but congress acted to override that and to make clear that cable services, services that used one big antenna to pull broadcast signals out of the sky and reroute it to their subscribers, those people were engaged in public performances and they ought to be paying royalties. the second thing that i would like to 10 reinforce in mr. clement's presentation is that there is -- no reas

mr. stewart? i stand for proportionality. i thought there was a lack of proportionality here. >> jon: it's proportionality, portion control. the government is overreacting which they tend to do when they attempt to collect money and the ower might have mentioned he has weapons and is vowing to do whatever it takes with his wife adding that she has a loaded shotgun and is ready to do what we have to do. i'm sure the government f they tried one more time sent a couple more guys up there with a swiss army knife and one of those credit card swipers, i'm sure we could settle this reasonably. because sean hannity is for proportionality when dealing with dissent. like when a police officer generally seasoned at uc davis. >> it's a lot of pepper spray. >> it was a lot. >> did they cross the line? i don't think so. [audience boos] >> jon: no, that was proportional. in fact, they couldn't have crossed the line because i didn't even see a line because my (bleep) eyes were burning because i had just had a pepper spray shower. [cheers and

mr. stewart and chairman smith in support of this bill. i want to thank them as well as ranking member johnson for their work on this important bill. members on both sides of the aisle can be assured that this bill represents a truly is built effort and on discussions with and advice from the weather community. mr. bridenstine introduced a well intentioned bill that went a long way toward improving the ools available to noaa -- noaa for evaluating technologies. his research was appropriate and helpful. at the subcommittee markup, mr. grayson added a valuable amendment for a focused hurricane research program. representative stewart, then the chairman of the environment subcommittee, worked with my staff and me on a manager's amendment to add to the tools and programs in the original bill. we drew on expert advice from the weather enterprise and from extensive reports from the national academy of sciences and the national academy of public administration. experts told us that to improve weather forecasting, the research at the office of oce

mr. stewart. >> thank you, mr. chairman. deputies and arms and others. thank you and your staff for the work you do. it is easy to be courageous when i am wearing the pen, but i have watched them with others and they seem to be just as courtesy. i will say it seems to be the sense of the committee we need open up more access during rush hour. will you commit you will find way to do that? >> we will definitely look at and do everything we can to try to relieve those issues. >> i think that is important. if you can't, i think it would be probably to explain why not and see if we can help you with that. something very quick, i want to some to something that is going to take a little more time but not many. the incident in october made us many comfortable. it was a tragedy for the family involved and difficult for the officers involved in the shooting and i know you examined what happened there. can you share lessons you learned from that incident that maybe helpful to avoid that in the future? >> we would all prefer nothing like that ever happen here. this

mr. stewart. >> mr. chief justice, and may it please the court, in promulgating the transport rule epa sought to protect the public health and strike a fair balance between the competing interest. the epa analysis proceeded in three basic steps. epa perform a screening analysis to determine which states would be covered by the transport will. in order to do that they first identified that downwind receptors that were in a state of non attainment or add maintenance difficulties and then determine to which states were linked to those receptors. in order to be linked the upwind state had to contribute 1 percent for more of the relevant national ambient air quality standards to that downwind receptor. in the state it did not contribute at least 1% to any of the relevant downwind receptors was determined not to contribute significantly to non attainment at that area. second, once the states that work to be covered by the transport rule had been identified epa said the state commission's budget for each state,

mr. stewart? i stand for proportionality. what you don't stand for is 200 armed agents and snipers pointing guns at their family. i do not support blm pushing and shoving women. i am shocked that jon stewart claims that he was such a devout law and order type of guy, that he's okay with this. the question is what is his position? does he disagree with me? does he stand with harry reid, for example? >> these people who hold themselves out to be patriots, they are not. they are nothing more than domestic terrorists. >> domestic terrorists? really, their cows were eating government grass. maybe that's john's position or maybe he agrees with donna brazil. >> remember, this is the 19th anniversary of the oklahoma bombing, so this notion that mr. bundy has no other recourse but violence -- anti government violence is absolutely wrong. he's been waging this battle for two decades. he's lost. everybody else is paying their grazing fees. he should pay his fees as well. >> what are you reluctant to compare bundy to timothy mcveigh? >> a

mr. jon stewart. oh, my god see you all i need to look at the program. indeed. so jack garden is going to come up here and talk about this from the jon stewart company (clapping.) well, that's what you get when you work for a company that's named after a man they call all of us jon stewart all the time and it was producing for me when someone called him jack. let's rearrange the next time for speakers thank you ymca so i'm honored to be able to say i was one of the village people with the leader the speaking and mayor and bust a circled move on behalf of everybody up here. thanks to mechanic and thanks to the mayor and commissioner torres and nancy pelosi and all the previous speakers for their comments and support it's hard to revoke all the supporters we're very honored to have the housing authority and commissioners and former ocii commissioners the director of planning and so many help us celebrate the grand opening of the new hunter's view. phase one we're celebrating here today one hundred and 7 brand new units is 14 percent of new unit that are going to b

mr. jon stewart at comedy central. i see you're doing something with jon stewart. will you tell us about that? >> doing a psa. our efforts are to help our troops, the wounded warriors returning from the war zone and needing mentorship. needing employment. there are so many trained, equipped troops returning home and we want to make sure they get a great shot. a fair shot at getting a good, sustainable job. tough to do of course in this economy. when you know, 18 to 20 million americans seeking full time, good employment, can't find it because of the economic condition we're in, but whatever we can do to help those troops. it is our military. they have paid the price, they have made the sacrifices to allow us to be free. how dare their sacrifices, their efforts, but in vain? part of that is sustainable, good employment in the future for their families. that's what we're going to fight for. >> great cause, governor. we appreciate you coming on the freedom summit very much. have a great weekend and we'll talk to you very, very soon. >> thanks so much. up. a short word

mr. stewart: unfortunately these are not records that they should be proud of. in 2013, the federal register contained nearly 80,000 pages. 80,000 pages of new rules and regulations imposed on american businesses. we know that the result of this is that it stiffles jobs, it slows economic growth and it hurts opportunities for hardworking americans. before coming to congress, i was a small business owner. i saw firsthand the devastating effect of these regulations on job creation and growth. this administration will be remembered for one thing and that's obamacare, which i think is the worst law written in the history of the universe. but it will also be recognized for another and that is dodd-frank, which runs a close second. both of these are emblem attic of this philosophy of bigger government, more powerful government, less effective government. now is the time to get serious about reducing the regulatory overburden upon the american people. and with that, mr. speaker, i yield back my time. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from tex

mr that you stewart was locked up. >> free housing. >> joanne, do you tim paw thighs when -- sympathizethese guys guys ? >> i rt started watching their "house of cards." and they send this their money on hookers, barbecue. i like thm and i like lessons in frugality. wouldn't it be nice if we set them up and have reality and tv cameras. >> they look pretty boring. >> they think so. we will find out the whole story. >> build them a barics. maybe it a barics. >> they live in crime me circles. >> give me a barroks. that's better than your office. >> i think you are. >> i am not, i am not. but don't you think you wantç impressive legislators and not just people who inherited money or won the machine lottery, but people are impressive. it would be better if they worked half time. they have to watch out for yellow fever in dc. >> she is not a pro golfer, but she sweeps with one.ç should wayne gretzky's be on the cover? that's the subject of -- >> "red eye debate 2 swrur 14"." >> welcome no the red eye debate center. i'm andy levey. parking vouchers will be handed out, but only after the debat

mr. stewart: thank you, dr. price, who is one of the bright lights here in congress for your leadership. imagine the c.e.o. of a business telling the board of directors he'd like to buy a new piece of commiment. -- equipment. unfortunately this equipment is expensive. but buying it, they will improve their cash flow and grow the business. that's a beautiful thing. but then imagine that the board of directors goes back to this c.e.o. and says, you have to consider the cost of this equipment, but you cannot consider the benefits of buying this piece of equipment. so it messes up entirely his profit projection. they're not able to consider the higher revenue and the growth of this company would undertake. that would be absurd. and of course that wouldn't be sound business decision. but that's exactly the situation that we find ourselves in right now. congressional budget office does not have the ability to account for economic growth. specifically, the impact on g.d.p. when it comes from tax uts. c.b.o. is in the r

mr. morgan. towards 1880, tiffany purchased the diamond and sold it to isabella stewart gardner.ie's sold it for the first time for $2 million. it is back with us now and is going to be make more than $5 million. >> is there a way to determine what is going to be the fashion? we know about color diamonds. >> people have realized how much rarer they got, how rare are defined in large sizes. this education the market like we have seen the good temporary art market that has driven prices to a new level. >> let's talk about a pink diamond. this is one that is available. people can go and see it in new york because it is going to be auctioned off. >> that is right. you can see all of them. we are on exhibition. everybody is welcome. the pink is a harry went and i'm in. a very strong color. what is great about this diamonds, it is being offered by a nice couple. all of the proceeds from the sale of the diamond will go to animal welfare. a good cause. >> what kind of demand you expect to be sustained? after these auctions, is there going to be another way? this seems like the second big

stewart, what do you think of what mr. buffett did or did not do at the board meeting? >> little surprised, sue, at what warren did. he said it's un-american to vote no. one of the great things about this country has been balance of power and exactly -- that's exactly what a board needs to do with management. boards need to be able to say no, need too be able to push back. i'm surprised that the board was even willing to put up a comp plan in which warren buffett disagreed. that discussion should have taken place way before this was presented to the shareholders. >> brad, whey don't you weigh in on that as well? i know you deal mostly with private boards bust also have opinions on public boards. tell me. >> i thought it was an odd statement. it felt passive aggressive. you know, if a large shareholder has an opinion that's different than what's being proposed for a vote, they should vote no. and as a director on a lot of companies, whenever a large shareholder has ever approached me or anything on the board about something, it's always generated an interesting and produ

is jazzy kol ins and stewart smith and they are here in spirit and we want to thank them for the service. and so with that i will turn it over to supervisor weiner. >> i thank you, mr. chairman and i also want to acknowledge stew and jazzy who were incredibly committed to the work of the task force and so many other issues of importance in the community and i know that they are greatly missed by all of us and they are in spirit here today. as we talk about the wonderful work of the task force, and i remember that it was almost two years ago that supervisor campos and i were aprofpd by bill and others saying that would you help that we would really start meaningful addressing this growing issue in our community. and that is how do we make sure that we are addressing the needs of our growing lgbt senior population and supervisor campos and i immediately agreed to work on that, with bill and the others. and then supervisor alagi joined us and we sponsored the legislation that created this task force and i have to say that i have been to so impressed by the work that the task force did, people have been, and we really, i think that empaneled a very diverse set of task

stewart and jay leno. let us know we'll let you know some of the results. putting you on the spot. mr.auer, who do you think? >> i'm not going there. no. >> i'll go there. >> i think neil patrick harris -- he'd be great. >> ellen degeneres. i like that one. >> dylan, i think it's ellen or chelsea. time for a female on the network. is. >> tina fey, amy poehler. >> can we let dave have his next couple of months? >> all right tamron thanks very much. >>> coming up more on that violent outbreak of tornadoes and the areas under the gun for severe weather today. >> plus former president george w. bush reveals his portraits of world leaders for the first time anywhere. among them a painting of his own father that even his own mother has not seen. well, guess what she's with us live and you know she's going to tell us what she thinks. but first, this is "today" on nbc. >>> coming up on "trending," the embarrassing reason this teenager found herself stuck in a drain in need of rescue. >>> opens up about his new movie, fame and his engagement. and w let me get this straight...
