not only was president carter but it was definitely mrs. carter, who earlier on had responded to a refugees international vigil outside the white house gates and one of the legendary actors in the state department, his wife is vietnamese. she engaged mrs. carter in a conversation, saying please rescue my people. they're drowning at sea. an order after that went out to have the p3 aircraft, out of japan, to begin to look for refugee boats that were afloat and having fleets start to pick them up. the commitment of the carters in so many different ways was extraordinary. i thought i would concentrate on the unforeseen difficulties that the refugee act gave us. we were quite hope with parole actually, in the field. and the switch to -- for the cambodian caseload in particular was a real watershed moment that led to at least 18 months of trench warfare. i talked -- prior to coming here a couple of days ago, with doris, the i.n.s. commissioner at that time. who i think was supposed to come down here as well but for health reasons couldn't make it. i rea

the free media and patriots had to remind mr carter that chavez is bad and venezuela together with china and russia iran maybe turkey a little north korea definitely geez bernie better grab a pen them and more baddies and even if they do what america does you can't compare the 2 because you actually can't compare them it's entirely possible and even reasonable but because just don't as trump found out when asked by a journalist about president vladimir putin being a killer a lot of killers go to kill is what you think our country so innocent rowland well it's technically right but it's not what america wants to hear one patriotic american put it and no i don't think there's any equivalent i do think america is exceptional america is different there's a clear distinction here and when you're exceptional you don't have to make sense you're just special you do bernie and be quite so nice here. for this mare is lost his fight to protect the people in his village from past the size of though he himself banned the use of court then overruled him he's now appealing that decision but his case is

the phone and called i readily but that was the kind of commitment we had and not only was this mrs. carter early, were going well only the overnight and the challenge for what you and i said we deal with this because the interviewing officer has the right to make these adjudications. they put together country studies and a framework of bringing ins officers back to the state department for briefings but nothing worked. and leading into the reagan years, the attorney general went out there and once again there was no success, why after the attorney general's visit the rejection rates had gone up yet again and we had to go back through the white house to the just this department to correct this matter. that somebody has got to to bring ins back to the reservation indoors is not able to do this on her own. there are a series of concrete cables and they were all put together in my success as a refugee coordinator in bangkok claims he lost 40 pounds and is four months down there trying to watch the process to make sure he got back on track. among other things, doris had to say we don't think th

. >> carter, thank you mr. sunshine here. carter paxton worth.ember lows. >> i would make one point. to think about it, so far the hardest hit for farmers. now we're really starting to focus on the consumer here farmers got a bailout. farmers got this really nice socialist chunk of cash that our manufacturers, right we're paying for these tariffs and then they got the money. so then pretty soon consumers, they're going to need a bailout, right? and we've bailed out consumers before if we keep ratcheting up these tariffs are consumers going to get a bailout? what do you think that means if we just have these tariffs -- >> what are you talking about? >> tax cuts. >> well -- >> first of all -- >> i would be more worried about corporate america. >> real tax would have to go to zero and below this is how it all starts. >> but if anything the place where there's an issue when slow growth, the first place you're going to stop is feel that triple beat tranche of debt that will very quickly turn to junk, some of, it if you get a lower growth -- the -- bac

( laughter ) >> well, i mean, let me start with ronald reagan. i worked for casper weinberger, who was the secretary of defense for president ronald reagan, and then you just keep going through president bush one, and then president clinton, president bush two, and so forth, on to president obama. i'd say they were all pretty good executives, in my observation, pretty good-- >> stephen: executives as commanders in chief. >> yeah, yeah. a

you guys were talking about carter earlier. mr. light, thank you for your work.ted to ask you about wind turbines and the creation of energy in the u.s.. i believe that texas is in the number one position. if you could talk about that, the increase in the u.s., and i also wanted to ask you about the senator sanders climate change governor in his, who i really only just became aware of during the debates. if you could talk about those two plans and if you could compare the plans? i want to ask c-span to do a access to energy for elderly people. my 91-year-old mother just had her electric turned off by dayton power and light, whom she has been a customer of for 60 years for being 30 days late with the bill. they turned off her electric when it was in the high 80 degrees, 90 degree weather. they turned her energy off for 30 days late. if you could do a show -- her hospice nurse told me that they walked in to tons of houses in the middle of the winter and in the summer where dayton power and light has turned off elderly people's electric. if you could do a program on

what i said are facts the fact that the state department said that carter is ahead there with neighbors this is a fact the fact that mr minutiae was in the hand commanded qatar only a few months ago this is a fact the fact that the name that you just mentioned and the 4 the only 4 names that we have on there is it make this as. they had actions taken against them years ago not only to the those are the facts that you know you should put in place so that if you let me let me give you a let me give you a few more facts and let me give you a few more phone it in addition to this and that i might want to go to a point that you mentioned earlier the problem is courting courting countries that accused coppered of terrorism as if they were in a position to accuse other of terrorism whereas these 3 countries egypt and saudi united arab emirates had their own citizens participating in september 11th let's look at ability of akureyri arrested in 2016 supposedly served his sentence under house arrest very nice and comfortable for coordinating the funding between qatari finances and al qaeda serious charge just a few months at ho

>> carter. >> how old are you? >> 10. nice to meet you. mr. steyer: my youngest is 25. i miss having a 10-year-old. most fun i ever had. >> i would like an autograph. then i have a question. ok.steyer: >> teachers get higher salaries but they are getting low pay. mr. steyer: they are very low paid. >> will you do anything about that? mr. steyer: yes. my mom is a teacher. >> my mom and dad are, too. and i know how hard it is to work and they don't get enough pay. but teachers are incredibly important. so from my standpoint, it's not just the money, it's a profession. in california, that something i was really trying to work on. what grade are you going into? >> fifth. [inaudible] >> thank you. >> thank you, so much. >> we're going to take a few questions. 5-10 minutes. mr. steyer: you guys like really y to me. are you guys perspiring? i would give congress 100 days to pass some form of the green new deal. what a state of emergency gives the president the ability to do is address things like building codes, miles per gallon. in an emergency, the president change things. i

it was jimmy carter at that economic summit in tokyo. apology, mr. president, i salute you, mr. vice president mondale, you were terrific. >> as you are talking to, we talked about the importance of leadership, you were talking about the importance of elected officials, but it is importance of leadership at the staff level, right? it is importance of leadership of presidents and members of congress on making sure that they are putting good, hard working, dedicated people in those positions. because as someone that's a former staffer, you know, that's where the work gets done, at the deep level. so that's really the benefit of this conversation, sort of opening the curtain behind the scenes, figuring out how the refugees act of 1980 came to be. thinking about how that came to be, it was a particularly challenging time both in the world and the political climate and if you took the refugee act of 1980 out of the picture app looked at the crisis, the fact that the refugee act of 1980 was able to be passed and signed into law and voted on unanimously in the senate is a remarkable ac

carter page fisa application process. remember the context and the timing of this, right? mr. steele had been fired as an informant for leaking to the media before all of these meetings that we see the 302s about. the 302s are the fbi still getting information from an informant. not as part of the mueller investigation but something else. it's huge questions, very fair questions about why the fisa court didn't get a full disclosure at some point about this dossier and why the fbi was still culling information from a guy that says he hates trump and wants to see him lose at all costs. >> dana: michael, does that seem suspicious to you? >> not particularly. there's two things going on here. the first thing is we can take the legal side of it. that's that we have something that is disgruntled given information, this is a common tactic when anybody wants to attack a process. they attack the outside of the investigation, attack the investigators and say the police are -- they were eating tomorrow doughnuts. what happened in the o.j. trial? we don't remember much about the o.j. case

it was jimmy carter at that economic summit in tokyo. i salute you esther president, mr. vice president mondale you are terrific. >> thank you. we have talked a lot about the importance of leadership and the importance of elect did officials. it is also the importance of leadership of our president and members of congress and making sure they are putting good hard- working, dedicated people in those positions. this is where the works get done. opening the curtain and figuring out how the refugee act in 1980 came to be. it was a very challenging time in the world and the political climate. the refugee act of 1980, if you take it out of the picture and look at that crisis, the refugee act of 1980 was able to be passed and signed into law and it really is a remarkable achievement. i would love to know what else. was president carter the catalyst? what else was happening allowing it to be pushed. >> i think it was several events. one was the indochinese refugee crisis. the constant communication between the executive and the legislator. at that time they came to agreement. it

mr. establishment. they were nowhere in the race. howard dean had it looked it looked like. jimmy carter was jimmy who. and this was in january.re speeding up this process now. but one thing that strikes me, nothing's moved since last june, and that's my question to everybody here. how come if anything can happen, nothing's happened except warren has moved up a bit. nothing's happened. >> i think it's interesting, chris, in the sense that biden has taken some blows and he still has a sizable lead, except for that one outlier monmouth poll over everybody else. i don't think that's insignificant. but as much as a nevada partisan as i am, i have to say of the john delaney is right in the way the presidential campaigns are covered, everything will crystallize in iowa, and then it will either be okay, it looks like everything is the same in the top three of the top three, or we'll be saying on the night of the iowa caucus, oh my god, candidate x, whether it's mayor pete or castro or someone we never thought could do it suddenly did well in iowa, then that momentum carries on to new hampshire and then back to the most important stat

mr. leland: the argument there was how about pappy cannon derailed eight debbie bush and we can argue kennedy derailed carter, you're not making a positive case for why you should be president? >> i want to roll up my sleeves and do the hard work to unify the country and stop deficit spending inducible meaningful about cutting co2 emissions and everything this company is not doing. leland: i've not heard anybody talk about deficit spending in the republican party in a long time that might make you an outcast. >> industry. those folks in washington they got money is there money. they do not understand my motto. there is no such thing as government money, it's taxpayers money. nobody in washington and congress or ministration is workinlooking out for the taxpa. we need to reverse that and do what i did in massachusetts which is cut spending in dollars and if you have the political will you could do it. they do not have the political will to do it. leland: there is no appetite as you point out. my favorite, for anybody on the trail especially in iowa your favorite at the iowa state fair? >> i think it's going t

mr. president, what we have here is an idea that's going to make it easier for all americans to vote. presidents carterid it's a great idea and you have the opportunity to prove that you can be bipartisan and do something for all americans. we call it the trump card. i handed it to him. >> this looks like a picture of a social security card with donald trump's picture on the front and the back. >> 35 states require voters to show some form of i.d. at the polls, and their pitch is that every citizen had easy access to a free photo i.d. then more people would be able to vote. you actually took his picture and put it on there. >> he said -- >> great idea. >> said, let me make it easy, you own hotels. as president, you're going to own voting booths. you got to fill it with voters. you're a businessman. you understand the practical common sense solution to getting people into voting booths and that is a photo i.d. >> so far, president trump hasn't turned king and waktel's idea into action. >> but, look, the reality is that no one is really interested in trying to make it more convenient for people to vote.

carter to roosevelt to woodrow wilson. all former governors who defeated incumbent presidents. i just want to make that point clear. governors are closer to the people. [applause] mrer: we balance every budget, every year and get things done. as governor of colorado, we passed the country's first methane regulation to fight climate change. we passed universal background checks and limits on the size of magazines. we achieved near universal health care and expanded reproductive rights in the process reducing unintended pregnancy by 54%. [cheering] mr. hickenlooper: and we created the number one economy in the country. in each case, we created a template that could be easily modified into national policy. now, none of the others running for president have done any of that. they are proposing medicare for all, a plan that might cost billions of dollars. a green new deal that would guarantee a federal job for everyone. and in some cases, they advocate for policies that would play right into the hands of president trump. meanwhile, this president lurches from one crisis to another. his tariff wars have cost american farmers billions of dollars. ahaz already had to ask

one of my favorite lines is when he gets june carter to come out and sing a duet, and she goes on stage and says you have me out on stage, mr. cash. is that were your plan ends? for this president, that is where the plan ends. we started a war and he had no plans to get out of the war. i spent 30 years building a business from scratch. you want someone who understands economics around the world, i have done it. you want summoned to take on the -- somebody to take on the president and call him out for being a fake? is doing makes no sense for the farmers of iowa and for everybody who lives here and everyone in america. love to do it. because he is not scary. he is incompetent. [applause] .> my name is jeannie i support rights for all voters. do you support the ability for people in prison to vote even while serving time? mr. steyer: we have supported the rights of people who have paid their debt to society and come out of prison to vote and we supported actively in places where does not exist, including specifically florida. that is the model i believe in. i believe in redemption. that we give people a second chance. that we

mr. super patriot himself, jim comey. as we all know by now, comey signed off on the very first fisa application against donald trump and his campaign associate carter page and we also now know he signed two other fisa applications, all based, the bulk of information, the bought and paid for phony russian dossier, bought and paid for by hillary clinton. he swore three times that the evidence in those applications were true, accurate, and verified. in reality, in truth, none of it was any of the above. none of it was true, none of it was verified and comey was lying. now, the first fisa request relied on hillary's bought and paid for dirty dossier, russian dossier, that wasn't true. neither was the second or third warrant. it was all based on the phony dossier. none of it accurate, none of it verifiable. it was all unverifiable garbage. comey knew the intel was b.s. he was warned specifically on multiple occasions by multiple people in multiple sources. no serious attempt was ever made to verify the dossier's claims that he signed off on three times. comey used it in a way in order to secure a backdoor into all things trump campaign and then transiti

the photo there is of helena bonham carter and olivia colman in "the crown". the guardian says mrty leaders to oust borisjohnson to stop a no—deal brexit. there's a photo of climate change activist greta thunberg on the front page, she's on a two week voyage across the atlantic to attend a summit in new york. the daily telegraph leads on the same story, saying the labour leader's move had been expected, but "it was thought he would not act until mps returned from the summer recess". borisjohnson's girlfriend, carrie symonds, also features on the front page — she's been speaking at an environmental conference. and finally, away from politics, the times splashes with its own investigation. it claims that call handlers working for the police have been trained to mislead victims of fraud into thinking their cases will be investigated when most are never looked at again. greta thunberg is on that front page too. what have you seen in the papers? do things that relate to transport that we re things that relate to transport that were announced yesterday, rail fa res, were announced yeste
