>> well, mr. speaker, this is a remarkable moment where the honor rabble gentleman has said something which i whole heartedly agree with. that there wouldn't be more members joining the european union in the next five years and i think that's important for the scottish referendum debate. he said we're not going to meet again. the house of commons will be meeting in september. >> can the prime minister explain why he's giving more knighthoods than he's given cabinet jobs to women? it's always interesting to take a lecture from the party that gave a knighthood to frank goodwin. >> i have appointed more women to cabinet on the basis that they deserve those jobs and i want a team that reflects modern britain and can be everything that modern britain is needed to be. i make no apology for saying i think in public life we should recognize public service, people who are worked hard, people who contributed to our nation, contributed to our government. i think that is is a good thing to do. >> mrs. sheryl

mr. royce: well, mr. speaker, i yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman from north carolina, mr. mark meadows, although a new member to the committee, a very active member on foreign affairs and the author of this important legislation. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from north carolina is recognized. mr. meadows: thank you, mr. speaker. and i would like to thank the chairman of the full committee, chairman royce, for his leadership, his kind words but really for bringing forth this bill so that the american people can once again unify against what we all know is a blight on our country, a blight on our world when terrorism prevails, we must stand firm. and i want to thank the chairman for his leadership on that. also want to echo the comments of the ranking member where he talked about this being a bipartisan effort. indeed, we have the chairman, the ranking member taking a lead. my colleague, mr. schneider from illinois, working with us on this. and today we have an opportunity to pla

mr. flake: well, thank you. i have to run to a hearing in a second but i just want to say, yes, the president -- i, frankly, myself and senator mccain, senator feinstein on the other side of the aisle and many others, i think everyone here, signed a letter to the president asking him to make a clear statement that children coming now will be deported. he did so. so did the secretary of homeland security. our state department has relayed that message. but you can say that until you're blue in the face but if the reality is that children -- unaccompanied minors who get here are then placed with guardians or families around the country and we appropriate $1.8 billion to do so, then the message that is sent is exactly the opposite of what the president is saying. and so i think that's what we're all here today to say, is we have to not just say the right thing, we have to do the right thing. and the right thing here is to change the law that allows the loophole for people to stay here indefinitely and send the messa

mr. ceo? >> well, andrew. we try to take a long view of what we try to do. we want to be a cultural institution. we exist so other people can do things. i'm in service to for people who work with me in kickstart a. this is an idea that we believe in very deeply and i feel like we are trying to shepherd into the world. if the long-term help of this -- health of this mission is important and we think being owned by giant company would be best for that, is that we imagine very traditional things like profit-sharing to make sure that the value we create get shared with our community. >> we are out of time. what does the ceo coach tell you? [laughter] >> we talk about the challenges of the job. it is a strange job. some of my friends who are ceos talk about the pressures and the crushing weight you feel the fear and terror and the thrill and excitement of responsibility. i couldn't imagine anything better to do with my life than this. >> thank you very much, we appreciate it.

in that contesksd what the government is doing for mental health conditions is important as well. >> mr. speaker we now know for certain that taxpayers last year were robbed of around 1 billion pounds because of the botched bargain basement fire sale of royal mail. will he now do as the select can he has asked and publish the list of those preferential investors? and when will somebody be held to account for this right royal mail fiasco? >> i just completely disagree with the honorable gentleman. for year after year royal mail lost money. the taxpayer had to back it up. in this government we have achieved what no previous government has achieved which is the successful privatization of the royal mail. the taxpayer has received money from that sale and we now receive the tax on the profits of royal mail rather than the losses and the mismanagement of the labor years. >> mr. speaker, later this year, the best connected to the super fast broad band which is hugely helpful for our tourism industry which provides thousands of jobs. eceived a wonderful boost. would my friend agree rolling out

mr. mccarthy: well, i thank the gentleman for yielding. i thank the gentleman's passion for crisis just as we have on this side. you know, since we have taken the majority, you know in the pledge to america that we post bills for the three-day process. so as i mentioned, in the schedule announcement for next week, members should be prepared for possible legislation to address the ongoing border crisis. once the timing is finalized, the rules committee will announce a hearing on the measure to determine the process by which the bill will be brought before the house. and i yield back. mr. hoyer: i thank, mr. speaker, the majority leader for that information. and i'm glad that he brought up the processes that will be followed and i want to quote to him something speaker boehner said on january 5, 2011, when he took the gavel. quote, but you will always have the right to robust debate in open process that allows you to represent your constituents, to make your case, offer alternatives and be heard. now, the gentleman has told me now three time

testified he loaned the mcdonald's $15,000 to cover catering at their daughter's wedding as well as buying dresses for mrs. o'donnell. well, her lawyers argued she accepted them because she had a crush on williams. >>> a suspect is in custody accused of killing a police officer in the twin cities. officer scott patrick was fatally shot during a routine traffic stop. a man believed to be the shooter got into a gun the bale with police last night. he and a woman he was with were both wounded. nationwide more than 70 police officers have died this year. >>> we're learning new details about that massive water main break on the campus of ucla. the city now says 20 million gallons of water shot out of that three-story geyser double what they first thought and it's still leaking at this hour, about a thousand gallons a minute. hundreds of cars and school garages are still under water and the school's newly renovated basketball arena pauley pavilion was submerged under nearly a foot of water. >>> meantime, still under feet of water this morning, parts of colorado. two days of heavy rains are starting to let up th

and this was a good means of eliminating gorbachev as a political rival the problem with mr yeltsin as you well know his rule led to ten years of chaos and the one positive thing that mr putin has done in my view is he's ended more or less the chaos the question is having gone into crimea i mean now threatened elsewhere building up the size of the military is he in fact taking money away from education and science as some russian scholars themselves say well that's a valid point even though i think if you look at public opinion polls the overwhelming majority of freshens do believe that crimea was is and will be russian now in these political climate though i find it very interesting that a couple of days ago i put in took time to send a telegram to president obama congratulating americans on their independence day and expressing the hope that the two countries could overcome the current difficulties and build their relationship on a quote pick magic and equipped to build basis but isn't that a major difference between now and then because the united states used to view the u.s.s.r. as an equal

mr. shep came in and began operating the waterfall wellness at the location. i'm sorry, i have a couple of things for the overhead. and, of course, >> you had it correct the first time. >> now again, you don't need to get into the disputes between the parties are those issues that are being litigated between them we know in 2011 shortly after the location had a fire caused by unpermitted i uninspected electrical work throughout the building and an, anlogically grow specific to conditions the planning commission placed on the permit the upstairs unit was to remain an residential unit the d b.a. staff mr. larry who ran the mc d program made a recommendation as the doctor that this operator you can see should be barred from operatidispensary they fou they were stealing power and bypassed the pg&e meter and had installed the grow contrary to the grow permissions in state law and caused the fire that endargd obviously everyone in the neighborhood he essentially and the building burnt so it was red-tagged by the dbi. to my understanding and from there the place was

europe the launch mentor so these are target of the figures and the facts speaks very clearly here well mr fuller it's an old rhetorical trick to call people who disagree with you a populist or extremist well i think everybody's entitled to his or her own opinion now speaking about the growth according to the european commission website wait wait wait wait no no i'm sorry i'm sorry i don't i'm sorry i don't accept your argument that i called those who do not agree was me as a populist i didn't say that there are many people i respect who do not agree with me and i do not call them populist but they are you just said that they arise. far right parties in both. u.k. and france was. how by some of the populace then that's what i was referring to anyway rather than trying to split up hairs on the stylist at least the differences here can i ask you a very serious question about be economic benefits of disagreement for ukraine it's been asked made that the joy of signing these association agreement will contribute about one point two billion euros to the ukrainian economy which you said previous

but not at all in your petition for certiorari. >> well, we did in the -- it was in the footnote on page 2 of the petitioner for writ of certiorari, mr. justice. well, i would think so but there really is no issue between the parties here on the issue of jurisdiction. i mean, there's no argument as between the parties on it. and, while of course the parties can't agree on it, i must say that on three different bases the jurisdiction does exist as we see it. now, i am not yet getting to the question of the intra-executive matter that has been raised but i am discussing now the statutory basis of jurisdiction, and -- >> (inaudible) >> to answer your question directly, sir, this is correct. we are standing upon not only the matter that this is an appeal that properly had been in the court of appeals and, for that reason, has been moved up here properly under 1254-1. we also say that court has jurisdiction over the petition and cross-petition under 1254-1 because it present for review all questions raised by the president's petition for writ of mandamus. and then we also say that, in addition to that, the all writs act gives this court j

. >> well, mr. president, uh, as your press secretary, i have to be honest. it has not been a good week. but on the plus side, you have a state dinner tonight, and all of your biggest supporters are going to be here.

mr. president. okay? >> welld this from the same woman who also was delighted and said perfect when she found out that the instant messaging system at the irs was not something that was archived and therefore the communications she was having with some of her staff being careful what you say in e-mails wouldn't get found. >> i believe there is enough circumstantial evidence to say that lois lerner is guilty of what people are saying about her. that she targeted conservative groups. enough circumstantial. bergdahl. haven't heard much about him. the sergeant was back. traded for five top terrorists back in the u.s.a. is he back active duty. now congress wants to do, what to bergdahl, cammeron? >> well, congress first of all wants to sanction the president. and what mr. bergdahl is facing is official questioning by the pentagon for the first time just next week since his disappearance in 2009. they are going to be ask asking him specifically what he was doing in the hands of the taliban for that five years. the chie

mr. abbas. >> well i don't speak on behalf of mr. abbas. still i think what we need is unity of all palestinians. i think what we need is solidarity. >> what is being done to foster that? what is being done to foster that? as an example for instance what we're seeing right now. if you look at local television, on tv where you are now, they're showing. if you go to gaza, they're showing live coverage of the air attacks. >> more than that. even more criticism of the behavior of the palestinian official during attacks on people. this is angering allel palestinians including young people. this is additional proof we need leadership in touch with people, following what's happening to palestinian population. most of all what we need immediately is that they should immediately restrain the israeli army and government. they're leading the place into a big explosion. the people who suffer most from this explosion are palestinians. those are losing their lives including the children that are killed by israeli tourists and israeli army. just remember,

mr. bonifaz, you can weigh in as well. mr. bopp, do you think there is a ceiling on the money a corporation can contribute to a campaign? as a corollary, money that has no -- that is contribute has no influence on a legislature once they have been elected? >> right now, corporations and labor unions can be prohibited from contributing to candidates. citizens united involve independent speech, not contributions. they are also subject to a lower standard under the law as far as allowing contribution limits to be had. abysmally they are low. i am involved in the republican party and i say to republican groups, and i will chance it here, you can't even buy a democrat congressman for $2600. the anecdotal evidence is that it takes six figures. congressman william jefferson of new orleans, yet 99,000 in cold, hard cash in his freezer. he went to jail. to be bipartisan, duke cunningham, e-commerce and from san diego, he came in for an earmarked weapon system. he would literally pull out a schedule and the lowest schedule based on the

mr. president? the presiding officer: the senior senator from maryland is recognized. ms. mikulski: well, mr. president, i think you've just heard a really interesting and i think -- oh, i'm sorry. excuse me. from the way the gentleman from new mexico concluded -- was the senator from california next? yeah, i thought i was at 5:00 -- 4:52. so i didn't mean to jump the line. i real lie do want to hear from the gentlelady from california, the chair of the intelligence committed and also the chair of the committee on interagency. i look forward to t excuse me. the presiding officer: the senior senator from california is recognized. mrs. feinstein: thank you. i want to begin by saying the appropriations committee is in very good hands. chairman mikulski has done an excellent job. and i strongly support this supplemental that she has put together. i want to give you just some brief background of my involvement in this issue and the issue being the unaccompanied alien children. it began around 1999 on thanksgiving day. a 5-year-old in an inner tube off the coast of florida, three miles out, was pic

mr. bonifaz, you can weigh in as well. mr. bopp, do you think there is a ceiling on the money a corporation can contribute to a campaign? as a corollary, do you think that money that is contributed has no influence on a legislature once they have been elected? >> first, limits. right now, corporations and labor unions can be prohibited from contributing to candidates. citizens united involve independent speech, not contributions. they are also subject to a lower standard under the law as far as allowing contribution limits to be had. i do think they are abysmally low. i am involved in the republican party and i say to republican groups, and i will chance it here, you can't even buy a democrat congressman for $2600. the anecdotal evidence is that it takes six figures. congressman william jefferson of new orleans, he had 99,000 in cold, hard cash in his freezer. he went to jail. to be bipartisan, duke cunningham, a republican from san diego, he came in for an earmarked weapon system. he would literally pull out a schedule and th

mr. cruz: well, senator sessions, it causes me great concern. and one of "the" most troubling aspects of the obama presidency has been the persistent pattern of lawlessness from this president. we've never seen a president who if he disagrees with a particular law so frequently and so brazenly refuses to enforce it, refuses to comply with it and asserts the power to unilaterally change it. the president famously said, "i have a pen and i have a phone," and he seems to confuse his pen and his phone for the constitutional process of lawmaking that our country was built on. rule of law does not mean you have a country with a whole lot of laws. most countries have laws and many totalitarian countries have a whole lot of laws. rule of law means that no man is above the law. it means that everyone, everyone, everyone, and especially the president, is bound by the law. president obama openly defies his constitutional obligation under article 2 of the constitution to take care that the laws be faithfully executed. i would note professor turley, whom the

mr. chairman, thank you. >> well, mr. chairman -- >> could dr. emmert respond?ave a sacred obligation to senator ayotte. she is next. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i appreciate it. let me just say up front on this issue of athletic departments investigating sexual assault allegations, that is ridiculous. you've got to get -- fix that right away. i am a proud graduate of the penn state university, and it's obviously we're -- it was so troubling and disappointing to see what happened at my be university. i loved the university, but the athletic department is not where you handle these kinds of allegations, so you've got to fix that. dr. emmert, walk out this door and fix that. what i'm troubled about when i hear the testimony today and i just need to understand, senator blumenthal asked about the change to an employer/employee model. we've talked about compensation potentially for athletes today. i don't want to see any athletes mistreated. i want them to be able to have a quality of life that's important as they serve and get the education and be able to be an athl

mr.-- >> well, let me touch on what mr. marino was talking about. a fair market is a free market with a level playing field that adequately compensates all creators but also serves the public interest. so if we scrap everything and start from scratch, that should be the guiding principle. how do we make sure that small creators, big creators and the public, all of their interests are well balanced. >> [inaudible] >> thank you. you know, i think it's something that the congress should consider, and, you know, and as part of that consideration, please take into account the concentration of ownership in the music industry. and as you think about who's sitting across the table to negotiate the right, who actually is that? and in many cases it isn't ms. cash, it's universal music, it's sony, it's warner. and on both the label side as well as the publishing side. the concentrations that -- i go be out every day and try and negotiate direct licenses. and over the last six years, i've negotiated a hundred direct licenses with the music industry, none of the

mrs. parks well for half a million dollars each which your have to recognize is a small proportion of a $300 million. and when mrs. clark died geode, at that point, a lot of money in gift taxes to the address. been so generous that they had not been able to keep up for had not filed. there were seven years in which they did not file. and at her desk in the -- death mrs. clark of in taxes and interest and penalties $82 million, a bill that was rising $9,000 a day. i spoke with one of misses clark's bankers use of the following to spur me on to my guess. he said, though story is utterly mysterious but equally frightening. all the markings of massive fraud. poor ms. clark sounds like one and a long list of risk-little ladies taken advantage of by supposedly trustworthy analyzers well, a post script if, in fact, that is what happened to. along the way i was introduced to the cousin who had turned out to be a much better investigative reporter and i because he had the presence of mind to look for her name in the santa barbara telephone directly to sub directory. there were two listings. and back

mr. miller? >> well, the reality is our songwriters association looks at the numbers that we've lost 80% to 90% of the song wherewriters the last 12 years. five years is a long time. i don't know. i fear what that would mean. certainly if we do have status quo and we ease more into a streaming model, it seems as catastrophic as we would assume that it is. what's interesting is my wife told me this morning that late last night, my 11-year-old, noah, asked what happens after today? are all of daddy's problems solved? which caused my wife to call and say, i should understand more than i do, but answer that question, what happens after today? does it get better? to her i have to say i don't know. it's a hard process. obviously a complicated process. i'm not the legal guy here. i look for words to rhyme with love every day. until yesterday i had never used the word omnibus, okay? that's the truth. but i will say this, i hope that you will take all of the facts into consideration and understand, an american pr

well. i wanted to first say that i think the report by mr. egon is very important but it needs to be taken with a grain of salt in some of the areas by giving a couple of references as well i think i'm a little bit puzzles there's an analysis from our board of supervisors but not the one presented by the planning department as well. i wanted to say i'm glad that mr. egon finds instances where formula retail can be beneficial to the city and neighborhoods i'll start by saying i think he cites and quote situations arise in which limiting formula retail is to the economy and others parts he acknowledges this could happen with prices difference between a retailer is low when spending difference is high and the consumers building the loss of an existing business will have a negative impact on the neighborhood and 3 because artist individual situations the case by case authorization maybe a complete policy to deal with the issues i think there are other places he is acknowledging the reporting considers the spending for businesses will provide more

mr. conyers, as well. and commend the chairman of that subcommittee, mr. sensenbrenner, as well as congresswoman noem for their leadership on this issue as well. sex trafficking is a serious problem and while we see it around the world, we should not overlook the fact that it is a serious problem right here in the united states. this bill joins several others that we have already passed through the house, representatives, to address this serious problem and it deserves the same bipartisan support that the others received and it also deserves consideration on the other side of the capitol by the other body, which needs to take these bills up and pass them as well, so they can go to the president's desk and be signed into law. this is truly a bipartisan effort, to address a serious national problem and we all need to join into the solution. with that i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the question is, will the house suspend the rules and pass the bill, h.r. 5135. those in favor say
