mr. linda thomas greenfield stated that russia intends to dismantle ukraine and completely erase it from world map. this impression was made by the ambassador based on the conversation between the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov and the us secretary of state anthony blinken, as you know, lavrov told blinken that pumping ukraine with us and nato weapons only continues the fire and the regime in kyiv , continuing conflicts, increasing losses, what do you think about these threats, what are they based on, is it just a bluff, or does putin really have some kind of trump card left in him if we talk about what trump is, then we all remember that russia is a nuclear power this week, including from a number of experts, there were opinions about the fact that russia can resort to e to point acts nuclear strikes, that is, this week the world has been talking about the nuclear threat for a new time, and competent military experts from around the world have said it. i don't remember exactly what this statement was from the british intelligence research institute, but a number of such statemen

mr. thomas, who does not believe.uy who likes to see and feel the product with his hands to see what it 's worth. so, but making sure that the product is ok, you will praise it louder than anyone. i guessed. so here's to the abolition of our rules. you personally receive an invitation from our firm. visit to inspect our local branch. together with state acceptance committee. congratulations mister. well, today you are in a good mood, as always, you asked for an entertaining little book. the young official or the bachelor ruined the old woman. she took things as a pawn, well, the safe and stuffed it to capacity was relatively a little lacking, but the old woman is not a pity. she's a jerk, right? and he had a clear bright path ahead. ugh probably. in any case, the very impatient one fastened the ax in a noose under his armpit and went to visit her in the evening. oh why an ax? why so bulky could be put there under the pillow test tube with radio and currents. in our time with an ax, this is the only chance in case of f

mr. thomas brady edward patrick. being an new england myself, i don't blame them one bit. so my point here sir, this country simply can't afford critically a preventable one. i'm surprised in reviewing the league rules to prepare for this hearing, the schuylkill hearing we uncovered that the nfl requires footballs today. >> the rules apply to everyone and if there applied equally. >> commissioner are you currently in new york city? >> sim. >> so you are at sea level, and were at washington, d.c. at sea level. so what do we do in denver at mile high stadium with thousand 280 feet high above sea level and how do we account for the variances that do occur with their differing atmosphere pressures vis-À-vis the psi intervals? >> congressman it's one of the reasons why this editor of your colleagues have mentioned that we had a lengthy report following the plate gate. we had several studies that went with 50 pages or more talking about lisa's exact issues. i can't recite exactly what they were at this point in time but they considered altitude, they consider temperature, they c

mr. langevin: i rise in strong support of h.r. 8404 respect marriage act. i was deeply disturbed by justice thomasopinion in dobbs versus jackson which made marriage equality that he is intent on destroying. marriage equality is at risk in america and we must pass legislation to enshrine the right to mary the same couples and interracial couples. when i was a state representative, i supported legislation to ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and discussed this bill with my late father who grew up during the civil rights movement. he firmly believed that all americans should be entitled to equal civil rights just like the jim crow laws that held discrimination, he said the mistreatment would mark a shameful chapter. when the supreme court legalized marriage equality, i fear that future is no longer guaranteed. i urge my colleagues to support this bill so marriage equality remains the law of the land. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from new york reserves. the gentleman from ohio. mr. jordan: we reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from new york. mr. nadle

mr. jordan: thank you, madam speaker. i yield five minutes to the gentleman from kentucky and the co-chair of the second amendment caucus, thomas massie. mr. massie: i thank the gentleman from ohio. before i talk about the substance of this bill or the lack thereof, i'd like to put it in the context of the other dozen or so unserious, unconstitutional, unnecessary and unsafe responses to gun shootings in this country that the democrats have offered and passed in this chamber. what have they done? they passed a law to ban m magazines with the capacity of more than 15 rounds. the chairman of the rules committee claimed this would stop shootings like the one at virginia tech. what he failed to mention is the shooter at virginia tech never used a magazine that had more than 15 rounds. that's an example of an unserious solution that's come from this body. what else have they done? they've changed the definition of a gun dealer. so that any law-abiding individual who sells a firearm to anybody and makes a profit of it now might be a gun dealer. and, therefore, prosecutable. and a federal crime. what else have they done that's unserio

the washington post also reported that thomas sent e- mails to 29 arizona state lawmakers, urging them to help overturn mrs loss. >>> now to a fast-moving fire near yosemite national park. the oak fire burning 15,000 acres in mariposa county as the high winds and dry conditions fuel the flames. governor newsom declaring a state of emergency. 6,000 residents have been forced to evacuate. at least ten structures have been destroyed and five others damaged so far. >>> parts of the country could soon see relief from the heat. 40million are battling triple- digits, but severe weather today could cool down the northeast, brian. no one needs that more than new york city. it's sweltering, and it is smelly, disgusting, sticky, all of the above. we cannot get the rain and cooler temperatures fast enough. >> there's nothing like the smell of the subway in like late july with the heat and humidity, right? it has its own -- we should bottle that, francis. o to a train. >> for what, brian, i don't know, but more power to you. >> we will make it. francis rivera, it's amazing, the headlines, it's hot in summer. who would

mr. stone they're not before you : in part because there's no administrative record. justice kavanaugh:okay. chief justice roberts justice thomasything further? justice breyer? justice alito? justice sotomayor, anything further? justice kagan? justice gorsuch? justice kavanaugh? justice kavanaugh:how -- how do you see this playing out, then, on the october memo? mr. -- mr. stone that this court : should affirm the district -- the fifth circuit's affirmance of the district court's injunction and with the october memoranda and the october administrative record, the united states should go to the district court, seek relief under rule 60(b)(5) and say either we have fully satisfied both conditions or, at minimum for the apa purposes, we have satisfied the apa compliance condition. and if they have, then, of course, it would be an abuse of discretion for the district court to deny modifying or satisfying that injunction as a matter of law. and if they haven't, then, of course, we'll litigate that there. >> thank you, mr. chief justice. let me make one quick factual correction, and then i'll turn to a couple of points on the statuto

mr. chairman. first if i may just pick up on the china exchange you had with ambassador thomas-greenfield, just to note it's not only not giving to these public international organizations at scale remotely commensurate to the crisis at hand, last time china gave $34 million for a crisis, but a much lesser crisis than this. another issue is the amount of debt that these countries that are so vulnerable right now have incurred principally in many cases bilaterally to china and the amount of money, i was just in zambia and malawi, that these countries spent on infrastructure that currently doesn't currently exist or on very high interest rates that are still now basically impeding the ability of these governments to borrow and to put in place the kind of social safety notice needed right now, it is horrific. so greater energy in that space as well from beijing would make a huge difference for countries really finding themselveses on the brink. with regard to your question, just to say that again we have moved very swiftly to take advantage of the incredible generosity that people up here have shown,

mr. langevin: i rise in strong support of h.r. 8404 respect marriage act. i was deeply disturbed by justice thomas' opinion in dobbs versus jackson which made marriage equality that he is intent on destroying. marriage equality is at risk in america and we must pass legislation to enshrine the right to mary the same couples and interracial couples. when i was a state representative, i supported legislation to ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and discussed this bill with my late father who grew up during the civil rights movement. he firmly believed that all americans should be entitled to equal civil rights just like the jim crow laws that held discrimination, he said the mistreatment would mark a shameful chapter. when the supreme court legalized marriage equality, i fear that future is no longer guaranteed. i urge my colleagues to support this bill so marriage equality remains the law of the land. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from new york reserves. the gentleman from ohio. mr. jordan: we reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from new york. mr. nad

mr. foster is there anything you like to add? >> justice thomasa philosopher so he does not seek to strip away rights background them into the nations constitution we know those it had substantive due process from the decision that was founded even more strongly through due process and other signs of decisions we talked about. and then not protecting black americans who were enslaved in dred scott. we are looking to reading the foundation of the nation to make sure they are grounded properly in the nations constitution so they can be protected. >> in that process. but we just celebrated our 246 birthday as a nation and we are still an experiment of self-governance on the world stage the greatest constitution and has endured but not if we in abandoned the principles. that's what a regionalism is all about. it is the model for everyone else around the world and there is a reason. and by god's grace will continue to be. but in the very first certificate of the nation's that you have the unalienable right to be born. >> thank you, mr. chair and think

constitutional interpretation waives all of those decisions that justice thomas himself revisiting open to the reversal. >> thank you, mrchair. >> thank you, mr. chair and to the panelists for your testimony and your presence today. i believe i may be concluding the hearing. one more after this. i would like to focus these few minutes if i might. the real world impact on the consequences for women's health, women's risk of death or grievous injury or such not enforced but perhaps soon hb 41 inio georgia and with very limid exceptions and other states where even more draconian and extreme bands on abortion are on the books and the implications make their way through the courts. based on your experience, when a state government steps in and decides it will regulate pregnancy and forbid a woman in consultation with m her doctor from making the personal choice about her pregnancy as early as six weeks in pregnancy, what are the implications for women's health? >> thank you and i want to recognize your probably the closest to the issue with some personal experience so certainly you have heard some of the stories already. and

mr. commissioner, i am sure you are aware that many new england warship thomas edward patrick brady jr.as a demigod of sorts. being a new england native myself, i don't blame them one bit. my point here, sir, this country simply can't afford another scandal. particularly a preventable one. i am surprised that in reviewing the lead rules to prepare for this hearing, this critical hearing, we uncover that the nfl requires footballs today to be inflated to a gauge pressure between 12.5 and 13.5 psg. the rules don't stay and specify the temperature at which these measurements are to be made and the pressure temperature law states that there is a positive correlation between the temperature and the pressure of a gas when there is a fixed volume and mass. so, how can we commissioner guarantee the consistency of the psi levels of football moving forward? >> well, congressman, it's been quite a while since i focused on this issue. i will tell you, our procedures now are that game officials make that check prior to the game. so, they are the ones that do that individually. and then the balls are

thomas. he's not some quote unquote liberal judge. i think the rulings were well founded and will hold on appeal. we shall see. >> mr.said the prosecutor likely won the case on the closing argument, is it clear what he's talking about there? >> reporter: you know, they had a really succinct closing argument, they basically said, this is a really simple case. bannon needed to show up. he didn't show up. he acted like the rules didn't apply to him and then he made this last ditch offer to offer to testify. they said, don't buy it. just don't buy it. that was their closing argument and the reason it was so simple is part of what is shown is complaining about there. there were a lot of defenses that steve bannon wanted to put forward that the court did not allow, that legal precedent does not allow you to use in these cases. that's part of what we have seen his attorneys complaining about in the months leading up to that case, and i think that's what they're hoping is going to lay the groundwork for their appeal going forward. >> satellit we heard one report doesn't seem like the misdemeanor from hell case you promised.

thomas jefferson. from my home district in virginia. from where mr. -- the gentleman from texas went to school. said what country can preserve its liberties if it's rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. let them take arms. thomas jefferson also said, no free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. back to james madison. the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. a well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country. george mason said, to disarm the people, that was the best and most effectule way to enslave them. patrick henry said, are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? if our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety or equal safety to us than our own hands? samuel adams said the constitution that will sever -- shall never be construed to authorize congress to prevent the people of the un

thomas in raleigh, north carolina. caller: the hearings have not changed my mind. jim jordan and mr. banks should have been on the committee but nancy pelosi knew that they would present the other side. why haven't we covered all of the rioting going on in portland? officers and businesses got looted. name one thing joe biden has done since he got in. look at baby food, gas prices, on and on and he will not take a single question when he does a press conference. if donald trump did not take a single question, the media would be going crazy. anything joe biden or kamala harris has done has helped this country. the midterms will be the biggest red wave you have ever seen. host: barry in maryland. go ahead. caller: good morning, america. i called in because it always begs the question as to why the republican callers cannot understand this is a hearing. a hearing does not allow you or does not offer that there is going to be a defense of what they are talking about. they are holding the hearing to get information as to what went on. why do these republicans keep talking about, oh, the h
