shortly after taking office, the obama administration discarded the 2008 rule that went through five years of extensive public comment and environmental review. since then, the administration has spent over $10 million of the taxpayers' dollars working to rewrite this rule, including hiring new contractors, then only to dismiss those same contractors once it was publicly revealed that the administration's proposed rewrite would cost 7,000 jobs and cause economic harm in 22 states. a report released by our house natural resources committee staff in 2012 following years of oversight and investigations exposed gross mismanagement of the rulemaking process and potential political interference and widespread economic harm the proposed regulation would cause. earlier this year the u.s. department of interior office of inspector general, or i.g., released a report with similar findings. however, what's more troubling is that the i.g. has identified significant ongoing problems with the rulemaking process. to make matters worse, they are refusing to disclose those problems to us here in congr

and the majority was not appointed by the obama administration. me, is pretty interesting. this supreme court doesn't want to hear their case i think that that's where the home school advocate's anger should be directed. now, granted the administration didn't support them. they want to court to say they shouldn't. i wonder if this family could have stayed in the u.s. under any other circumstances. people come to the united states all the time. not asking for asylum, but they come for the same reason this family did, for freedom. >> well, they still may stay here because this president famously exercises what he calls enforcement discretion. and it's up to him to decide whether to enforce the deportation. this family is not here as immigrants but seeking asylum from persecution. that's what asylum means. and the administration argues, i'm afraid technically rightly that, in fact, they are not persecuted because the law that they have a grievance with is not applied to their family or category of home schoolers but to all germans. furthermore, we see

the obama administration announcing it is considering plans to give up u.s. oversight of the domain registry of the internet. it's currently controlled by the commerce department, but could be handed over to some sort of international agency. critics say this would put control of the web into some really dangerous hands. >> the obama administration argues that this is necessary because the internet now exists under the control of one government and that's dangerous. there is some logic to that, isn't there? >> i don't trust any other government, the chinas of the world, russias of the world to control that which they seek to not have available to even their own populations. i don't want america subject to others who are not as free and open as we are. >> what about that? richard fowler is a democratic strategist, radio talk show host. he joins us. danine joins us, director of the outreach for freedom works. good to see you both. danine, u.s. programmers invented the internet. they advanced it and nurtured it and protected it and did so in a remarkably compete

three years ago the obama administration's own experts estimated that these unnecessary and sweeping changes could kill 7,000 jobs. the urge to issue mandates was too strong and instead of listening to reason, the administration fired its own advisors and kept on pressing. that's no way to promote economic recovery. mr. chairman, today's legislation would halt the obama administration's haphazard and disastrous rulemaking. hoosiers deserve an all-of-the-above energy plan, not a red-tape agenda. so i would urge my colleagues to support this legislation and i yield back. the chair: the gentleman's time has expired. the gentleman from washington reserves. the gentleman from new jersey. mr. holt: mr. speaker, i'm pleased to yield two minutes to the gentleman from oregon, a most thoughtful and strong spokesperson on protecting our environment and people's health, mr. blumenauer. the chair: the gentleman from oregon is recognized for tpwhoins. mr. blumenauer: thank you. i appreciate -- for twomans -- for two minutes. mr. blumenauer: thank you. there's nothing here in terms of what the admin

if you really change the basic nature of obamacare, you are reject the whole premise of the obama administrationent, all the time. you reject any part of that, you undermine the whole presence of the obama president. >> if they keep doing small steps in and those steps keep building up until the november election, the combination of all of that will be detrimental to the cost. stuart: should i build? >> i think their prospects of getting out of this are better than targets. stuart: thank you very much. we appreciate you being with us. we have our own version of march madness. google versus zynga. here is how google stacks up against zynga. zynga has 2000 employees, $4 billion market value. david versus goliath. i've got that. what do you think? >> have to go with google. it does not add up. they still cannot get online gaming yet. google is splitting april 2. >> okay. good. priceline. how does it stack up against tesla? priceline, 8000 employees. tesla, 6000 employees. $28 billion market value. where are these companies going? elon musk just sent a local letter to customers in new jersey saying

ever since the obama administration came in. w, take, for example, the fact that we have status of forces agreement, probably with 100, 125 countries in the world. this administration, the white house and the statement department have failed to get a status of forces agreement. a trained ape can get a status of forces agreement. it does not take a genius. we have so mismanaged that relationship. i think that he has tried to separate his harshness against the white house and the administration from the american people and the people that he appreciates that served in that country. >> mr. secretary, thank you, sir for joining us. >> you bet. >> straight ahead, does this sound strange. union reps can go with federal safety inspectors to inspect nonunion businesses would s. that >>> does this sound like i object tim accommodation to you. union representatives are going along with federal safety inspectors to nonunion businesses is that legal? >> julian, tell me the story that you reported about the safety inspections. >> well, actual

and therefore i am applause the fact that president obama's administration is active in every arena. in, iran, syria the middle east peace process and so many other parts of the world. >> that was netherlands prime minister mark rutte. the president obama says the world is a messy place but that the u.s. has consistently been able to get coalitions with international community around a core set of principles. del. >> and candle, on that note the president indicate that go if nothing else, they seemed to be to be keying keeping the eye on the prize saying had there been nukes right now in you crying, the crisis there would have been much worse. >> reporter: indeed it would very much the president also complemented ukraine on its continued compliance with the agreement that removed nuclear weapons from ukraine. in exchange for guarantee of sovereignty for the nation of ukraine. >> and randall, also what is the latest knew concerning what is the g7 because russia has been suspended from the g8 and that scheduled meeting in sochi? >> reporter: well, the g7, the u.s. and six major industri

we appreciate it. >>> this just in -- the obama administration making yet another change to the president's measure which it once called settled law. obamacare, of course, i'm talking about. moments ago the administration announced that insurers can keep customers on policies even if they don't completely comply with the standards for obamacare for two more years. you'll remember that many americans got cancellation letters from their insurers after sign-ups beegan because their policies did not fit the government's criteria. in many views they were junk policies. this move could prevent that from happening again just before this year's midterm elections. >>> up next, as intense meetings in paris today wrapped up with no clear resolution to the crisis, what can the west do to rein in putin? anything? what does an apron have to do with car insurance? an apron is hard work. an apron is pride in what you do. an apron is not quitting until you've made something a little better. what does an apron have to do with car insurance? for us, everything. where their electricity comes from. they flip th

they didn't know if the obama administration was going to allow them to or not. only in this umbrella provided to the demonstrators when the egyptian military was broadly by washington. this was the beginning of the collapse of the mubarak regime. then as it was quoted into the brotherhood started to go inside of the square coordinated themselves or others with more visible in washington and a renter -- all media and it was when the brotherhood went and the statement changed. for the first time because the brotherhood was still out. when the brotherhood was in and the speeches began to become actual then they should resign. >> host: i will give you a different implication, tell me if i'm wrong, but i think what you said is because the brotherhood joined and the u.s. administration had a favorable attitude, then our administration decided to go further and saying you must go in supporting. and so it sounds as if our favorable attitude toward the brotherhood is what allows us to go further. and an alternative explanation of the sequence i don't disagree with your d

while i'm speaking of that we know we just learned recently that the obama administration that i had started a new historical low when it comes to government transparency at unity been censoring him denying the number of forty requests that have been issued over the course of the obama administration to speak a little more probably to the difficulty as citizens and journalists are experiencing when it comes to you. i initially nice way requests. sure it doesn't all other federal agencies in particular the agency's doing intelligence and law enforcement work. i seem to think that they can be found in you from point a unit on what congress intended when they passed a law they could come up with a variety of different legal tricks to try to get out of their obligations. so things that it is inflating our include the very lengthy delays on extraordinary he's that you might be charged to the document. com or agencies money to do much of a search to locate the doctor didn't even accept. although now that your client nine shapiro is actually at. he is known to act as the most prolific whate

is the obama administration planning to give up our secret password? james rosen investigates. >> what you give away with the stroke of a pen you only get back by the barrel of a gun. >> that is bradley blakeman, former senior adviser to president george w. bush, and he is referring to the obama administration's announcement that it intends to relinquished oversight of ican. essence, blakeman contends the u.s. will be giving up control of the internet. >> you said this is all part of the president's strategy of apiecement and pandering. that sounds pretty harsh. what do you mean by that? >> what i believe is that the united states thinks we have to apologize for our power. the fact is that america is the most free and open country, has made the internet available not just to americans but the world. >> the commerce department's long-standing contract with ican is set to expire in september 2015. the plan is to have a new body take over management of ican. supporters which include businesses, say the shift is long overdie. >> this is all about separatin

. >> the obama administration argues that this is necessary because the internet now exists under the control of one government and that's dangerous. there's some logic to that, isn't there? >> i don't trust any other government, the chinas of the world, the russias of the world to control that which they seek to not have available even to their own populations. i don't want america subject to others who are not as free and open as we are. >> you can learn more about the president's plan on a fox news special called "surrendering america" hosted by bret baier. >>> a federal judge has barred commissioners from prayers in their meetings. one commissioner is pushing back saying she's willing to go to jail for her beliefs. >> i believe this is a fundamental right of america. if we cease to believe that our rights come to go, we cease to be america. >> that commissioner will join us live exclusively coming up. >>> a rare look inside the national security agency. our own brett bare takes us deep behind the scenes. >>> first my sunday exclusive with senator ted cruz, executive over reach and

but the obama administration is sayi inamericans can have a few more weeks to sign up. here's what health and human services secretary kathleen sebelius said about that yesterday. >> we now have 6 million folks as of a couple of days ago who have enrolled in a plan. i think we will have significantly more by the time that open enrollment ends and that's new health security for millions of americans. >> but republicans dispute those numbers because they don't differentiate between those who sign up and those who have actually made a first payment for new health insurance. one republican congressman says the true sign-up numbers may be a lot lower. >> we discovered a portal with which they communicate to insurance companies since december which is where they insist insurance companies provide them with the number of those when have enrolled and those who have paid as well and so they have if not a precise, a very accurate picture, of who actually has paid. it could be as much as 20% off of these gross numbers that they're giving to the press. >> house republican speaker j

power is the obama administration. eporters should be equally objective towards both. >> gotta go. greg, jim, thank you very much for coming in today. >>> up next, lena dunham is the media's new it girl, but does most of the country care about her new series, "it girls" and later, bob costas take on whether he might retire. they work fast on heart burn and taste awesome. these are good. told ya! i'm feeling better already. alka-seltzer fruit chews. enjoy the relief! ...return on investment wall isn't a street... isn't the only return i'm looking forward to... for some, every dollar is earned with sweat, sacrifice, courage. which is why usaa is honored to help our members with everything from investing for retirement to saving for college. our commitment to current and former military members and their families is without equal. >>> lena dunhham is a media sensation. >> i came here to say i don't think we should see each other any more. i don't think we should see each other any more and it makes me feel stupid and pathe

fast forward to the obama administration, clueless on the world stage, completely clueless on the war front. president obama has no war strategy, fickle foreign policy and a paperer tiger immanual. all the while threatening just about everybody and going after just about nobody. never meaning what he says or saying what he means. his policies are destroying our country, putting our troops in harm's way and endangering america's security. his blof yating is creating ill will around the world. pity the next president of the united states. now, the skirmish hasn't even begun between russia and ukraine yet president obama runs out to a press conference last night to get in the middle of the fight warning russia that there will be cost for any russian military intervention. take a listen. >> indeed the united states will stand with the international community in affirming that there will be costs for any military intervention in ukraine. >> really, mr. president? what are you going to do? your red lines become pink lines which in the end makes look completely yellow. and just this afternoo

you were in the clinton administration and intelligence council and obama administrati administration tell us if you look back on the clinton administration, obama and it may start with bush i. >> host: in my book i discuss since the collapse of the soviet union i should point out i was in policy planning in the last 18 months of the administration and then at the national intelligence in the bush administration. both times when i served in government we were already on a downward slide in the relationship. so i think the first was briefed because president george h. w. bush and with president yeltsin for a year was on the focus and oof course general scowcroft was the national advisor when the focus was on disarmament on the controls into deep nuclear rising say ukraine and making sure after the collapse of the soviet union to nuclear weapons was safe there was probably not enough attention given to helping out the new russian government financially, economically and i know president nixon himself was in favor of that but that was very much a perco where the intent to renew focused o

it was not something the obama administration wanted and the russians with the legislation on the adoption. the administration understands it but i think we are a pluralistic system and the congress is very important. they take a rather different approach to dealing with russia. >> host: one important thing about your career is in addition to being the leading academic you of course were in several administrations. your book covers a lot of ground. it starts with the last days of the soviet union and then it goes to the current period. you were in the clinton administration. you were in the bush administration and in the state department. tell us if you look back, according to the administration, the bush administration and the obama administration if we can start with which one. you seem to be favorably disposed to the whoosh and i'm talking about bush 41. >> guest: in my book i discuss for resets that i count since the collapse of the soviet union. i should point out i was in policy planning in the last 18 months of the clinton administration in six months of the bush and administration

they didn't even know if the obama administration in the west in general were going to a love mubarak to -- it's only when the umbrella was provided to the demonstrated second day, their day, fourth day when the egyptian military was brought by washington do not go. this was the beginning of the collapse of the mubarak regime. then is as if that was coordinated through the brotherhood web site of the tahrir square coordinated themselves. it was when the brotherhood were in fact the statement of the white house changed. before it was we want to see how we are going to solve this issue between the government and the protesters for the first 72 hours. when the brotherhood was in and al-jazeera was covering and cardelli began to become essential than mr. mubarak issued it. >> host: i would give you a different way to interpret that because the implication and tell me if i'm wrong but i think he just reaffirmed it. the implication of the book and i think what you said is that because the brotherhood joined and the u.s. administration had a favorable attitude toward the brotherhood than our

obama says no. he will not go to the g-8 summit in sochi. senior administration officials announcing the president will not go to sochi unless president putin reverses course on the ryu rainy. also just breaking president obama reportedly offering president putin a way out of crisis. and minutes ago president obama getting off the phone with german chancellor angela merkel. the two speaking an hour about the developing crisis. this dramatic video does tell it all russian and union crew rainyian troops firing each other. both the violence and political tension escalating by the minute. for the very latest we go to live in ukraine. what's going on? well i'm here in kiev. what is happening seems to be crew rainyian side has attempted all attempts by putin tries to provoke choosing a fire fight which would ahim to justify his invasion of crimea and to try to justify an invasion of other parts of the ukraine. >> do you have the sense that this is getting worse? because we are looking at this video and we see, you know, this is obviously video of -- that is not live vi

i think the obama administration has done a few things that beg that question.s this happening? this is not a good idea. it's also not finished yet. this is not something that has to a. the american people need to speak up. it transcends liberal conservative lines. every american should be up in arms about the nature of this plan. it should not occur. it will harm everyone because the internet does benefit the world. taking it out of our hands means everyone will lose. >> it caught our attention for sure. i only have 15 seconds. how do you think this plays out? >> i think we need to have that conversation. not just about the international community, but here at home on this issue of neutrality, for example, because there are corporations that are saying that they want to have the ability to control internet traffic as well. so this isn't just an international conversation. this is a domestic conversation and the obama administration has been forthright in saying they want to provide equal access to everybody. so i think they've been right on that issue. >> all r

and the obama administration has invoked national security to deny foia requests -- >> 9,000 times? eah, more than any other administration. and they also have the luxury of invoting the nsa act of 1959 which the nsa argues exempts it entirely from the freedom of information act. and the release of records which will paint them in a positive light, unsurprisingly, the nsa only complied with 2% of its requests last year. so absolutely we're facing a crisis. >> our community has tweeted in, and there is a facebook post from andrew . . . and speaking about the nsa, brad tweets in . . . check it out. another reacted document there, lisa. and then rich goes . . . all right. horace i want to go to you. look, ryan mentioned the nine exemptions that the go uses to get out of foia requests. the one used most frequently is documents are in the interest of national security. do you believe the obama has abused that? >> i'm not sure of that. i would settle for if osha or the mine safety health administration or epa or department of transportation, if they would make this kind of information and

at the same time, though, some republicans have been voicing some deep criticisms of the obama administration's relations with russia. using the ukrainian crisis to attack president obama's foreign policy in general. here's what republican graham tweeted earlier today. it started with benghazi, when you kill americans and nobody pays a price, you invite this type of aggression. senator john mccain said similar things of the obama white house. calling their policy feckless. senator chris murphy on the foreign relations committee hit back today at them. listen. >> i've listened to some of my good friends on the republican side try to score political points in connection with the russian move on crimea. trying to paint this somehow as obama's fault. this is a ridiculous contention. putin marched into georgia in 2008 under a republican president and many considered to be strong on foreign policy and now he's doing it with a democrat in office. >> earlier i spoke with republican senator marco rubio of florida. senator rubio, you outlined eight items which you said the u.s. must do and should do imme

and said that companies should not be fined if their religious beliefs do not align with the obama administrationcongressman welcome. >> thank you, lou. lou: you are hopeful for your side's cause. in listening to the skepticism, expressed by the justices today? >> i am, the hole u hopeful nat, justice say can administration really force people to do this, and the question about religious freedom act, they continue to act can administration set aside from bill from congress and ignore that. solicit or general continued to come back and say yes, we can, and hobby lobby side, saying no, they can't ignore that. the big issue is not just about contraceptives but can administration say to a business and business owner, you can practice your faith on weekends and at home but not while at work. that becomes critical issue here, are all of first amendment apply in all places, or only in certain times and places 92 that represents a skhreugz o collisis and powers. sometimes it more difficult than it right seem, corporations also under law, seen as person or a citizen, so many issues at work here. i'm not c

he was connecting those foreign policy dots, very critical of the obama administration foreign policy. he hit some points directly related to that. starting with ukraine he said while there's not a time right now for military action, he thinks all options should be on the table and the obama administration shouldn't limit itself. >> we with economic sanctions, there's a broad away of options that we have. this is the ultimate result of a foreign policy where nobody believes in america's strength anymore! >> >> senator mccains direct kit six, he talked iran, one of the main issues being talked about here in the foreign policy spectrum. he is one of the members of congress who wants to impose sanctions on iran as a failsafe if it fails to live up to its bargain over nuclear capabilities. some say there will be sanctions to kick in immediately if iran pulls back anymore. here's what he had to say about that. >> the only alternatei to compromising on our terms is more crippling sanctions or worse. the senate should pass new bipartisan sanctions legislation that would take affect if the cu

the obama administration has announced u.s. will give up the administering of domain names and web addresses on the internet. the new predatory body will be created to exert formal control. internet operation will assign names and numbers welcome the move. >> this is a moment of triumph. this is a moment where it shows it is mature and ready and we no longer need the stewardship of one government. we now need the world's stewardship to come and ensure that our functions are performed as requested by the global community. >> u.s. has faced calls to relinquish its control of internet addresses in the wake of the revelations over extensive nsa spying. clashes broke out in venezuela on sunday amidst continued antigovernment protests. now since of demonstrators marched on the venezuelan army base to protest what they claim to be cuban interference in venezuela's military. at least 28 people have been killed and over 300 wounded in the last six weeks, marking venezuela's worst violence in 10 years. a group of haitians and their advoc

>>> the obama administration proposed sweeping changes to the nsa's surveillance records of american's phone records. puts the burden on phone companies instead of on the government. the president says the changes would help ease concerns about privacy while still keeping americans safe. >> overall i'm confident that it allows to us do what is necessary in order to deal with the dangers of the terrorists attacks but does so in a way that addresses some of the concerns that[er people had ra. >> federal regulations already require phone companies to hold onto so-called metadata on all phone calls for 18 months. but that does not include records on the caller's names or the content of those calls. >>> the government and telecom giants monitor phone calls,

regular and consistent basis. >> many of the foal low republicans have been very critical of the obama administrationth russia. do you think john mccain, for instance called the obama leadership feckless on the issues. others have been even harsher. is that kind of rhetoric, are those kind of criticisms fair given the fact under president bush vladimir putin had the military action in georgia, many of the policies president bush tried to institute against vladimir putin didn't seem to have the kind of response the u.s. would have liked? >> well, i think mistakes were made in the bush administration, as well. i have certainly been a critic of the obama foreign policy in general. i continue to be. i also think in a moment of international crisis, especially one of importance such as this one, it is critical. we're a free society. we will have this debate for years to come. we have had it in the past. there's plenty of time to critical of the mistakes that have been made by this administration and previous ones. i do think now given the urgency of the moment it is important that we try to find a way to

what country in the world thinks we are stronger today five years into the obama administration? that's just a sad fact, and vladimir putin is strong because we are weak. that's just a fact. >> i've got to leave it there. we are flat out of time. david axelrod, you're a great sport. i appreciate you coming on the show very very much form mary madeline as always. senator johnson will be around for a while, but now it's time for a very special moment for me. many of you know the "the kudlow report" actually started years ago as "kudlow & cramer" before we were both spun off to maximize profits, my great pal is going to here to join me.

a senior obama administration official tells nbc news that president obama has been meeting with his national security council discussing potential options with ukraine. tensions remain extremely high as russia steps up its occupation of crimea, a semi autonomous region located on the black sea in the southern section of the country. russian president vladimir putin shows no sign of backing down, despite mounting pressure from the u.s., nato and the eu. this standoff has escalated incredibly quickly with a steady string of major developments since pro-kremlin forces moved into ukraine last week. >> the united states will stand with the international community in affirming there will be costs in any military intervention in ukraine. >> when armed and masked gunmen appeared at the two main airports in crimea friday, the world wondered whether russia had really decided to begin an invasion of ukraine. by saturday morning, that question had largely been answered. >> this morning the occupation moved from airports and military installations into the center of the crimean capital itself. >

obama's reasons not for doing that, but the way this played out, bush's actions plus obama's actions make the administration look weaker in russia's eyes. i'm not saying that's fair, but that's how they see it. >> and, ambassador, some of this is less about obama and more that putin made a calculation about the europeans, and that they're so addicted financially to russia. >> yeah. >> that they're not going to -- there's real economic sanctions the u.s. and world community could hit russia with, but the europeans may not like it. >> right. and there's actually a lot of russian money parked in western financial institutions. many of the europeans. so the obama administration is trying to work closely with the europeans, because any financial sanctions you might imply will be far more painful to the russians if it's a joint american-european effort. this is where putin has to be careful now. crimea is one thing. there've been these maneuvers north of ukraine. you hear this language coming out of moscow suggesting russians in eastern ukraine are somehow at risk. that's just nonsense. >> right. >> there's a mil

so why in the world would the obama administration deny to 16,000 employees scattered across the united states potentially their job, their livelihood and it's either you agree with our administration's view of religion and morality or you forfeit your company? this is a pretty big deal. this is about as big as it gets and this to me shows a stunning arrogance of power by the obama administration that they would force people to give up and yield their religious liberty and freedom of expression rights or pay for that right. mr. gohmert: and one of the justices -- and, again, since we don't have cameras in the courtroom yet -- i will be fighting for that in the future. i could only listen to the audio, but one of the justices -- again -- tried to belittle paul clement's comments that they have a choice. the gentlelady has pointed out accurately you pay $2,000 or $ 36,500, but he was indicating when you add up, with all the employees they have, the total $475 hey either pay llion or they can drop the insurance, leave the employees in a dilemma, have to go buy obamacare insurance that othe

administration. brennan is not just an old obama ally somehow only swept into the white house in 2008. a cia lifer working at a high level within the agency in the clinton white house years and during the george w. bush administration. and it's those bush years that are central to this whole issue. brennan oversaw secret prisons and some of the controversial interrogation and detention programs of those terror suspects during that time. it was a practice that was widely slammed by congressional democrats. that piece of history has dogged brennan for nearly a decade. he became a close advisor to then senator obama during his march to the white house in 2008, but it was that connection to those interrogation programs that ended up preventing president obama from officially nominating brennan to the job he now holds today over at the cia. brennan instead during the first term became the president's chief counterterrorism advisor, became the key voice in the raid that killed osama bin laden, and helped conduct the drone war. when president obama won a second term, the administration decide

[applause] i am going to focus on the policy of the obama administration toward syria. i suspect -- good question. very good question. the question was, do they have one. i suspect that within this from there are some of you are low the frustrated with how the white house has handled the obama administration. all of you. i suspect -- well, you see, and they say that the syrians have hard time reaching agreement. not true. not true. i suspect there are some of you may be more than frustrated, upset, angry about how the obama administration is analysts' policy. i want to confess to you, i don't know if this offers you very much consolation, but you're not alone. for those of us to follow the serious crisis closely, for those of us to watch out the obama administration is managing its handling of the serious crisis, one of the most extraordinary puzzles and challenges that we deal with concerns the incredible risk aversion of the obama administration with respect to its think is of assyria and even more so it's incredible reluctance to change course even after it has pursu
