it ought to be faced now, and it ought to be faced when someone needs to pledge that there are simplyo gifts if a person serves as president or secretary of state. john: one of the things you said at the time is that willie will be up to bill and hillary clinton. they are the only ones who can do this the right way and maintain a sense of trust that there are no conflicts of interest. mark just asked you about the totality of things. you look at the totality of things that they did a good job or do you think they failed? fmr. senator lugar: i think they did a reasonable job in the sense that you look at it as a batting average. how many times there might have been confusion or speculation on the part of foreign powers quite apart from any money taken by the clintons, privately or publicly. that will be for many people to judge and my guess is, sadly that we are in for quite a period of weeks or months of examining the situation because it is a point of vulnerability. john: does it bother you? there has been one part where the government of algeria made a donation after the earthquake

i believe that you ought to pursue those. appreciate the fact that senator bob corker has been working on a bipartisan way the foreign relations committee voting 19-0, on legislation just the other day that will make it possible for the senate to review what occurs. if something does occur by june 30, and to move ahead. i would save right now that there are amendments that are being suggested, such as iranians ought to recognize israel as a part of this deal for example, or there ought to be a formal treaty as a matter of fact. 2/3 majority as opposed to the majority that is inclined to be the case now. other amendments of that variety. the battle still goes on in this country apart from the negotiations in iran. it will be difficult enough. it will be not semi-miraculous but remarkable if by june 30 the parties come to a conclusion that is clear that the iranian nuclear program will be set back. the centrifuges will be declining in number, there will be access by international atomic -- or the energy association, or anyone e

they think we ought to have tax reform. they think we ought to have productive energy policy. they think that regulations, especially coming out of washington are too onerous and costly and when people understand how that's affecting opportunities they're going to say let's get some common sense in the regulations rather than more of them. neil: in the meantime put you down as a maybe on o'malley. right, governor? >> not likely. neil: good to see you, thank you, sir? >> thank you neil. neil: focus on what hillary clinton seems to be running from. >> i want to be sure that we get small businesses starting and growing in america again. we have stalled out. neil: say what? charlie gasparino says get ready for hillary to run from the obama economy. just as you predicted and outline the biggest worry is the suddenly shaky recovery. but this is the first time for her to be this point-blank about it. >> this direct. i think we're going to see more of that. your first guest talked about the tightrope jittering and that is essentially what she has to do. she has to talk liberal and tal

in the united states ought to have the same set of benefits. it shouldn't make any difference what state you live in. if you live in alabama or live in washington state, you'll get way different treatment in the medicaid program. and that's not fair. in this country we're all americans and we're all one and we ought to be treated the same. >> i think ultimately it will have to be taken over by congress because there are a number of states where they refuse to expand the medicaid coverage. president obama gave expansion of medicaid and said we'll pay for it. we'll pay 100% and governors still said we don't want to give it. they are essentially saying to the poor people in their states, no, we don't want it. you can look at florida and look at texas and look at alabama. there's a whole bunch of places where governors have simply refused to take care of the people in their states. i think it's wrong. >> independent line from florida. good morning. >> caller: hello, good morning pedro, hello representative mcdermott. last time i spoke to you is bef

one argument you ought to know, an interesting argument, the president i'm sure hears this. there are some who argue as soon as you expand the pell grant the cost of higher education goes up. in other words the more dollars you put into the system i.e. demand, the supply does not expand as rapidly and therefore the cost goes up. and so there are many members who argue the problem with pell grants or another assistances it simply goes into increases college costs. i'm on a board of trustees here and i'm obst. mary's college board of trustees. i'm the longest serving member of the board of trustees. we are having great difficulty keeping costs down, not raising tuition, while at the same time retaining quality faculty. you've got this end quality support staff. and it is a real challenge. so that there has been a focus on academic credits. academic focus. but if we're going to expand as an economy, we also need to have opportunities and availability and affordability for, as you say, noncredit courses but which very much lead to economic growth in our society. >> what i would

and the federal government ought to only spend $3 trillion in revenue. well, in the the next couple of days, he is going to get questions about what is the 500 or $600 billion you're going to cut out of government now in order to make it make the expenditures match the income. if you belief that why did you last week call for increasing the defense budget by $190 billion if you don't think the government ought to spend anything more than it gets in? >> so it's going to get rugged the next couple of weeks, karl, thank you. >> it's going to get rugged, you bet. >> indeed. in a programming note sean hannity sits down with rand paul for an hour long interview. don't miss it dvr 10 p.m. on hannity. right now news about sergeant bowe bergdahl. did very a secret plan. fox news correspondent catherine herridge joins us. did he have a secret plan. >> we were able to get new information from two sources, one military and one intelligence about this initial investigation in 2009 into bowe bergdahl's disappearance. they looked at his computer, they interviewed his s

it ought not to divide us along any partisan or party lines. i am proud to have worked with members on both sides of the aisle, and i hope that we can come to agreement now with my good friend and my excellent colleague, senator cornyn and others who have worked so hard and who are so genuinely determined to solve this problem and to take a step. it's only a first step in the direction of combating human trafficking. thank you mr. president. i yield the floor. mr. president, i note the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: mr. mcconnell: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. mcconnell: i ask consent that further proceedings under the quorum call be dispensed with. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. mcconnell: mr. president my friend and colleague senator cornyn, has been involved in discussions with the majority about a path forward on the trafficking bill, and i'd like to ask him if he is optimistic that we may be able to reach an agreement at some point in th

we ought to be helpful to them, and help stop them.tt stevens at "the wall street journal" talks about the situation internationally, like the broken window syndrome. if you let police department, if you let broken windows occurring in a neighbourhood, it will deteriorate. brett says the same thing is the case internationally. if we don't stop some of the crazed undertakings like al-shabab, i.s.i.s. and the rest, the broken window syndrome takes over the continent. you don't want to send in the army. there's a reasonable approach that would help local democratically inclined powers to get the job done, without announcing as soon as you do something that you are about to propensity. >> you sound like you moderated the position since the start of the iraq war, after you suggested that iraq had something to do with it, and you need to be forceful. >> i think that we showed by going in and by the success in the surge, that we could have taken saddam out, and help bring a lot more order and democracy to the country than we did. we felt the

and we ought to not make this a partisan issue. this is an issue of whether we're going to resolve this problem through an aggressive agreement that the world can enforce or whether we're going to be drawn into military action that would be catastrophic in terms of the atmosphere in that region and what it would mean for the united states and for the rest of the world. so why not give this a chance? every expert every arms expert that i've seen is treating this seriously. you may have differences on some aspects of it but to say it asks for nothing is completely off base completely off base. >> go ahead. >> here's vice president cheney telling a crude of new jersey republicans this week there have been a number of times where we've been faced with the potential threat of a nuclear middle east and what's worked is military force and the willingness to go in and use military capability to strip nuclear arms from places such as iraq, such as iran such as syria and unfortunately, barack obama doesn't seem to understand that close quote

ought to be subject to the warrant requirement. there are sort of questions about entities that might not fit neatly into the category of remote computing services. and so i think there's quite a bit of room for some smart thinking among folks who are in this room and also in congress to think about forward looking approaches. to think about how we would fashion a statute in 2015 based on the expectations of privacy that people are entitled to have and they do have today. i'll stop right there. >> that's great. thank you for teeing up all of those fascinating questions about reform, that's the electronic privacy act in congress. about the foreign intelligence surveillance act reform and access to internet of things. and thanks to your sense that the 24/p drone surveillance would violate the fourth amendment. we have a circuit split between david and ahmed. do you think that 24/7 drone surveillance would violate the fourth amendment according to current supreme court doctrine? >> has this little drone found me in my bedroom? >> only

we ought to share the gospel with these terrorists. while that's certainly an appropriate individual response of christians, government has a different responsibility. the new testament says government is in avenger to bring wrath upon those who practice evil. and on the eve of these holy days all christians ought to stand together with people of the jewish faith and all freedom loving americans, we ought to demand that our government do whatever's necessary to eradicate radical islam. because i promise you these murderers are not going to stop in africa. they're not stopping in the middle east. they're coming after every one of us if we don't stop them. >> you know, after the holocaust if you go to the holocaust memorials it always says never again, never again. and yet we watched these christians being targeted and jews too for that matter in city after city, and ancient artifacts and places that are beloved and wiped and have been for centuries being torn down as though it's nothing. and the question is whether there will be some so

we ought to show more professional development. and provide professional development teachers. it doesn't tell mechanics how to work. the state doesn't tell them how to do heart surgery. teachers are qualified to teach american history. let's teach it. >> the kids are closing up books in june. do we want a kid that loves the morals or a way of understanding america that they didn't have before. >> i think it's that ground level knowledge - that it is important. we see a lot of anecdotal evidence. personally, i don't think it matters - that slants towards encouraging a sense of pride. if you want those that are going to be informed, knowing a narrative that is not going to encourage that. that doesn't mean that we need a curriculum that simply glosses over or lies about the dark periods, and i don't think it is offering that type of tutelage in the classroom. you can twist this you can give a student rational content-rich reads, to be proud of their country, and provide them with the habits of mind to be - to necessarily take it at face value, and know when descent might be appr

everybody ought to pay their taxes. everybody. everybody ought to pay their taxes. now if you're really rich, you can find an accountant who can find you about every loophole that there is that we've given. we don't have a bill on the floor to close loopholes. the chairman admits that federal employees pay their taxes at a -- voluntarily and correctly -- at a higher percentage an the general public. should every one of them, should it be 100%? the chairman is right it should be 100%. the gentleman from north carolina talks about our federal employees and they ought to be treated correctly. we're their board of directors. i will tell you, folks if any board of directors of any large corporation treated its employees the way we treat them they'd all quit and the company would go bankrupt because we treat our federal employees very poorly. . very poorly. and the general public, of course, thinks they're loafing and not working hard and this, that and the other. and that's wrong. we have the best civil service in the world. and this does convey the message that somehow

well, if we're going to be training we ought to want help. we ought to want other people helping us train. nato's the logical vehicle. we know there's going to be an assistance requirement for afghanistan. if we're going to be doing assistance we ought to want help in that. if other countries want their troops involved, they will be more inclined to make assistance commitments. so we ought to be focusing very hard on extending to some degree the nato mandate beyond 2016 however we constitute our part of it, so we don't just fall off the edge of a cliff. and nato is not a -- this is 26 nations and steering a supertanker is easy compared to getting turns and -- you just don't get quick adjustments with 26 nations. so while we are busy contemplating our own future month to month we really need to stake out a nato policy. thank you. >> we want to leave time for questions from the audience here. but let me pose one last question from the panel here. for the panel. how do you view the prospects for a agreement with the taliban? what priority should

i don't think we ought to treat people unfairly.people with respect and tolerance. at the same time to tell a christian -- >> a baker that maybe doesn't want to put on a cake allah akbar. does religious liberty trump -- which takes precedence in your mind? >> why do we even have coercion in a free society. they seem to be antagonistic. i would think we ought to try freedom in most of these things. also people ought to understand that people's opinions change through persuasion. if i really want to convince you to come to my way of political or religious beliefs, like if i go to africa i don't evangelize by forcing you to join my religion, i've got to convince you to. if you want to convince people of marriage, they need to do it through persuasion. >> you've gone out of your more than any other candidate on the republican side to reach out to historically black colleges, and audiences that are not traditionally either conservative, libertarian or republican. and you got into a bit of a controversy in an nbc interview, shouldn't surp

that's the way it ought to be. every generation ought to hit easier than the previous generation.ama household. not true for black families outside of the obama household. the data indicates now that for the first time ever, black kids today, the generation of black kids today, are not going to do as well as their parents. sasha and malia don't have that problem but most black kid, the data tell us, are not going to do as well as their parents have done. so now in black america, we flip the script. for all the sacrifice and all the service and all the struggle, the blood, the sweat and tears we have now arrived at a play in more than history in black history, where black kids are not going to do as well as their parents. i've gone full circle here. so again i'm not ever going to call the president a house negro. what i am suggesting is he had a different journey and the journey he had is the different than the journey most of us have had and the journey his kids -- his daughters are going to have is a very different journey than most black kid inside america are going to have if w

. -- it ought to be your parents ideally. for me, it was a teacher. that's your role model, and i found that, and it was a history teacher at my high school. i called her and told her last year -- i put it on my schedule to call her quarterly, and i thanked her for years and years. she was a great lady. >> if you were in the navy and you went through school, did you go through any other kind of training before you went to combat? rep. hall: no, we were in the navy, and we graduated into:. there, they decided if you were going to fly fighters or torpedo bombers. of course, i wanted to fly big engines because i wanted to have something to do when the war was over, fly private airlines. i asked for big engines, they gave me fighters. all the guys that asked for fighters got big engines. i don't know if i would do it again if i had to do it over again. we were sent to daytona beach. you can imagine taking two kids from rockwall county, black land, cotton and corn, sending us down to white beaches. something we would have never have done but for the war. i

once i'm an adult, i ought to take my own chances, even if i'm a fool.lton friedman said, part of freedom is the freedom to be a fool. but orthopedic surgeon alton who repairs bones of people in accidents says, yes motorcycles should be mandatory. why, it's my head, leave it alone? >> that's a valid argument. i'm a native texas. itexan.i believe in civil liberties. at 23, i lost one of my close friends who was riding his harley pe. he hit a pothole and died. >> so i'm sorry that happened to him. but i ought to be allowed to risk my life if i want. >> but what about the cost to society as a whole? we have a limited health care dollar budget. and 44% of all the costs of these head trauma patients which are astronomically more costly to our health care budgets are borne by society because weirdly our -- maybe naturally, the insurance companies don't like to cover motorcycle injuries because of that added health care burden. stossel: this is the argument i hear all the time. other people are paying for this. so this gives the state a reason to intervene. by

why ought humanity remember moral nightmares? rather than moments of human trial, moments in which humans behave nobly? because the issue for us to sort out is what humanity ought to remember rather than what it is good for humanity to remember. what should we remember? we ought to remember not what just makes us feel good. that is a tough challenge, isn't it? who wants to live with a narrative that seems to be full of moral nightmares? that's what i took from her amazing lecture earlier. there are some aspects of the civil war story. we don't want to go there. this is what we ought to remember, not just what is good for us to remember. it's a tough challenge. it's a tough challenge in a culture like ours, a country like ours. i'm going to generalize. americans don't like to see their past as tragic. as laden with terrible beginnings and ends and struggles. we don't like to see our past is essentially tragic we like to see it as a progressive narrative and triumphant. we've done it with the civil war over and over. we fashion it

everyone in the country illegally will not say everybody ought to be deported. everybody ought to be assessed and we had to determine whether they are in a state for -- went to the united states and on an individual level whether they get to stay or go. it is bewildering how the irs goes to 100 million tax cuts down to what i ate for lunch six months ago at a kosher restaurant and whether his business lunch or not but they can't track down 14 million people and decide whether it be good for them to be in the country or not. >> host: ben shapiro from charleston, west virginia. seems like a fan of yours. if she wants to listen to you read you what is the best source? >> guest: truth revolt.org is one of my websites. you can check there to pray partners. if you want to listen kr l.a. every morning, 19 and on the east coast. afternoon i do a second radio show. my second radio shows 3:00 to 6:00 in seattle. you can google in bothell. >> host: you also tweaked. >> guest: as you know i'm rather volatile on twitter. it is@ben shapiro. political debates extraordinaire as

we republicans ought to be able to agree with that. i believe that is in concord, ambassador ambassador, with the people's thinking across the united states. it's been a lot of discussion about how the potential candidate in '16 is a governor or past governor because they want to see somebody who actually run something, but i believe what i'm bringing to the table is a long history of thinking about the international relations in this country. the degree in foreign policy from uva experience overseas, training as an speejs agent living among the german people. study of international law. visited 18 countries on three continue innocents as governor. in addition to that, i've been to afghanistan, pakistan israel croatia chaired the national commission for five years on homeland security after the three years in the 9/11 attack, i was the governor of virginia during the 9/11 attack and had to protect my state and reawaken the economy of my state, which took a terrible blow when they closed airports in virginia around the washington, d.c.

we ought to be thinking about that. we ought to be thinking about the families who have lost loved ones, not because of the united states but because their loved ones were taken hostage by al qaeda. >> tony, i think what david said is absolutely right. but still, there was a tactical perhaps military mistake made that led to the deaths of two innocent people. do you believe do you think that the white house is directing these strategic operations themselves? >> this is not a -- lbj conducting operations on rice paddies during the vietnam war, absolutely. part of the problem is the intel. i talked to a former director of one of the three-letter agencies yesterday about this. all the tactical calls were being made at the white house, down the road here. let me tell you, this t doesn't happen instantaneous. it takes time for information to work up. as mik said in his presentation there, we're relying completely on overhead observation. that's like looking for fish through a soda straw. just doesn't work well. so you need t

those people ought to be sentenced. but they ought to be sentenced to drug rehab. >> but i think there is a lot of people in the streets making money on it. look at this now, the arrests in new york city. >> they're still hurting from eric gardner. >> apparently this was a demonstration on the issue of freddie gray. >> but they're still hurting from eric garner. >> okay. you're right. the garner family is going to speak. so they're going to get -- these are all getting intertangled here. >> this is a real issue in this country. the spotlight is on it. >> let me ask you. you cover this. when this thing started, before ferguson, down in florida with zimmerman, and the vigilante case, and then it led to a loft police cases. it had the same kind of look to it, a white guy killing a black guy. with no real justification. and the court system got into it where you have cameras, it's been different, clearly. and you go to ferguson, you go to garner, you go to cleveland with the kid getting killed in schoolyard. on the cop that

it is a rethinking of how the whole thing ought to be designed. this brings us to the architects of this house. herbert w brown and arthur. let me say that all of the information that you would want is available. there are a bit of mysteries about both of them, and i will come back to part of that in half a minute. brown and little are both boston upper class, born on beacon hill in theat area. arthur little in 1877 did one of the earliest books examining early american architecture. early american architecture wasn't a concern of anybody. he goes out with sketches. early new england interiors. he attended mit school of architecture. then he traveled abroad. with mr. brown, it is a little unclear whether he did attend mit, but he does travel abroad. he is in paris with her hee was a member is unclear. the exact date they team up is unclear. there are a couple different dates when they are out there. they begin to do houses such as this, the salem house. it is a sort of a federal revival. this is our turn little -- ar hturrthur little's own house.

you ought to be paying for it. you pay for things like bottled water.n't you pay for music? and if you only have things going to few -- to free songwriters cannot make a living. you would have a loss of a high percentage of americans songwriters who cannot earn a living. the average american pays about $500 a year on music, but about 100 of that is for live music. if you are a songwriter that does not tour, you are not able to get any of that income. services have got to have a price point so you can make a living if you are a songwriter. cory: interesting stuff. thank you very much. well the drama continues as two , former federal agents are charged with money laundering and wire fraud and stealing bitcoins from silk road. it is an amazing story, next on "bloomberg west." ♪ ♪ cory: the bwest byte is when we focus on one number that tells a whole lot. joining me to tell us a whole lot is charles allen via skype. charles, what is the byte? charles: 2 is the number of the day today. that is the number of agents arrested in the silk road case. this is an a

to have the minimum wage, and if we ought to have a minimum wage, the question of where it should be set would seem to be higher than where it is now, which is that -- which is at a historic low in relationship to the rest of the labor market. there is a good argument that a minimum wage is not good enough as a way of dealing with the problem of wage stagnation across the labor market, including at -- in relatively low wage work like fast food and walmart where there are powerful arguments if you look at the firms that they ought to be paid well above the minimum wage. they are not a pretzel stand. but question is how. and if you believe that what is going on right now in the streets, so to speak, collective bargaining by walmart and mcdonald's workers with walmart and mcdonald's management, if you think that's the right way to do it you ought to ask yourself how do you sustain that and broaden it? because the reality is that -- there is no secret about this, the reality is is that those workers are being supported by other workers who are enmeshed -- part of the old collective barri

and i think at least we ought to consider before we rush down this route i think we ought to consider whether this technology should be thought of the way we thought of chemical warfare for example after the first world war. and it was just decided that, you know, gee we are two countries, we don't like each other but as much as i might hate you and you hate me we're not going to do wit chemical weapons. >> there is a line we're not going to cross. >> right. i wonder if we imagine the possibilities, 20 30 years out and where we are headed if it isn't time to say wait a minute. let's talk about this and see if that's really where we want to go. >> jujeugene. really appreciate your time. lots more including our chat with senator ted cruz in a very unexpected place. and the presidential joke no cover, no minimum. lots ahead. so please stay is with us. cats like to eat. up today, new friskies 7. we're trying seven cat-favorite flavors all in one dish. now for the moment of truth. yep, looks like it's time to share what our cats love with your cats. new friskies 7. for cats. by cats. >>> n

once i'm an adult, i ought to take my own chances, even if i'm a fool.n said, part of freedom is the freedom to be a fool. but orthopedic surgeon alton who repairs bones of people in accidents says, yes motorcycles should be mandatory. why, it's my head, leave it alone? >> that's a valid argument. i'm a native texas. itexan.i believe in civil liberties. at 23, i lost one of my close friends who was riding his harley pe. he hit a pothole and died. >> so i'm sorry that happened to him. but i ought to be allowed to risk my life if i want. >> but what about the cost to society as a whole? we have a limited health care dollar budget. and 44% of all the costs of these head trauma patients which are astronomically more costly to our health care budgets are borne by society because weirdly our -- maybe naturally, the insurance companies don't like to cover motorcycle injuries because of that added health care burden. stossel: this is the argument i hear all the time. other people are paying for this. so this gives the state a reason to intervene. by that logic t

and something we don't talk about very much here, but which ought to be said, is that wage stagnationly correlated with the dismantling of the collective bargaining estimate, particularly in the private sector in a twhaway that is not true in other countries. i would suggest two things. one is to the extent we all agree that wages -- that it is good for low wage workers to enjoy wage increases, and i suspect we all agree that it is good for workers as a whole to enjoy wage increases commensurate with their growing productivity, then the question is not should we have a minimum wage, but where should it be and i'm afraid there is no way to get around it, it needs to be higher than where it is now for it to do its job, a. and, b, we need to think carefully about how in today's economy and today's labor market, today's globalized world, how do we ensure -- how do we ensure that the interaction that is going on between walmart's workers and mcdonald's workers and management which is leading to their wages being increased after years of stagnation and the fact that walmart really falling c

but maybe you ought to have a right to control the data. or to -- or a right for your data to be protected. and maybe the government then could get involved and facilitate that or regulate that. but i think another thing that greg mentioned is sort of -- what these companies can do with their analytics. so google -- well, google and facebook. google can parse through and categorize youtube videos and tell you what all google, youtube videos have somebody wearing orange pants and raising their hands. facebook can tell you if somebody's depressed before they're clinically diagnosable with depression. when you think about these things from a law enforcement or intelligence perspective, they're very useful tools. and so at what point will -- at what point will that be purchased or requested or asked for or compelled. that's sort of a question i have about social media. >> we're positive, of course, google would never process these feeds. but google unlike facebook is subject to a privacy protection from europe and that's the right to be forgott

that's the way it ought to work. since 1973 for a whole variety of reasons, not simply because of trade, obviously, but certainly trade, i believe, is a substantial factor, we have a -- in the united states of america, productivity up 74% in those 40 years, wages up 9, not 91, 9%. neither political party has come up with an answer to that central challenge. part of the debate -- part of this debate, i think -- probably should say part of the resolution of that problem is what we do on trade. not the only part of the solution. so we see now that a recent paper by economists at the university of pennsylvania as well as other universities found that when workers are displaced by trade, and they switch jobs they suffer real wage losses between 12% and 17%. i guess, mr. trumka, going to ask you, and some of this you set forth in your testimony, what is the best approach in terms of using our trade policy to address this wage problem or lack of wage growth? mr. trumka: first of all you have to get it right on the trade aut

you're going to hear them say, well, the market ought to decide. transit is really local.rivate sector will build it or the local folks should pay for it. i was in south carolina doing a presentation at the south carolina chamber of commerce infrastructure day. anybody here from south carolina? okay, in the back, thank you very much. you had a congressman there who for the most part said all the right things, including we ought to raise the gas tax. i hear he got some phone calls about that, but i compliment tom rice for saying, you know, what we probably ought to do is raise the gas tax. then rice put up a chart and he showed, well, south carolina, we don't get any real transit money back, and if we just got rid of transit, then we could fix the highway problem. to which i replied, thanks to brian tynan's quick research to me as i'm typing on my phone, south carolina, 47% of your resources for transit come from the federal government, so don't tell me it doesn't matter, don't tell me it's a small amount. that's a pretty big deal and that's in south carolina. then he said,

i say, in a free country, people ought to have the right to discriminate. government must not. the worse of american racism and homophobia slavery, segregation enforced by jim crow, state bans on interracial marriage, anti-sodomy laws and so forth was government discrimination. and that's wrong. but private actions are different. if i start a business, with my own money, i ought to be allowed to serve only libertarians or people who wear blue shirts, whatever. it's my business. my customers have choices. if i'm racist or anti-gay free market competition will punish me. enough people will boycott my business and i'll lose money. punishment from market competition is enough. more and more oppressive law is not needed here. in private life we don't need religious freedom acts. it should be part of the individual freedom. part of being an earn in. that's what i think, but i'm losing this battle because religion is constantly under threat. >>> in texas, the apache tribe celebrated by conducting this ceremony, it includes wearing feathers including eagle feathers then the government

. >> he -- >> you ought to be ashamed of yourself! >> -- wants government officials to play by the same rules as everybody else. >> they're afraid of me. >> you're not allowed to do that. >> and they're afraid of my video camera. >> and she -- >> i probably cried more than i have in my life. >> -- summoned the strength to protect her father. what all three of these people capture on camera is shocking. >> something just hit me like a ton of bricks. >> in plain sight. >> you're going to jail, buddy. >> and in their homes. >> get out of my face, man! >> using video cameras. >> get off my camera. >> to fight for justice for safer streets. >> do you want to go to jail? >> and for their loved ones. >> the camera saved my dad's life. >> "caught on camera: video vigilantes." have you ever seen something that made you so angry that you wanted to say something or even do something about it? but you weren't sure what? most of us can't hand out a ticket or arrest people. but the folks you're about to meet have found a clever way to take action,

we're so close to each other i feel like we ought to be having a cup of coffee. >> want a beer? >> i'll take that. commissioner clyburn, this is something senator heller talked about as well it makes little sense that the general public did not have access to the text of the order until two weeks after the commission voted on it. so my question to you, commissioner clyburn is this. should the fcc publicly release items put on circulation prior to a commission vote, especially those that significantly impact the economy? >> one of the things that i like to talk about in terms of this process, it is one of the most open in the world. we had a notice and 4 million comments that allowed people to weigh in. one of the things i'm also cautious about when we talk to them i'm open to any type of you know ways that we can improve the transparency is there is a deliberative process that takes place among us, and i would love for that to continue. i'm able to speak in an unbridled fashion. one of the things i'm worried about in terms of releasing things prematurely is that could be comprom

i think we ought to keep it in that perspective. it is tempting for the government to want to take over every aspect of our lives, but that is not something we need to do. the american people are resilient. they largely want to be left alone. they want to have fruit of their labor. they're willing to pay some taxes for roads and schools and the things we all collectively need, law enforcement. but, they don't want a government that tells them what to eat, what to drink, how to be clothed, how much they can do this, that, or the other. the american innovative spirit has always defied that, and it still does today. i hope to bring that reminder, as we go back and look at our framing documents right here in this town -- magnificent to see them -- they remind us we can pursue that happiness, that we do have life, liberty, and property. and the government has to protect those things and also promote good policy to protect those things. not take away and encroach upon it. host: can you carry on with those principles and yet also compromis

i think the nelson amendment interest and ought to be included. i yield back. >> textiles. the nature of congress for the past 30 years has been allow people to get in the textile business because it's easy and cheap. just like senator nelson lobbies for the jobs it creates, 300 jobs in florida, it probably used to be three million in north carolina. we've got a textile industry that hangs on the ledge. not places that have a history of textiles. i would encourage my colleagues trade is about making it fair. the precedent you set don't make an investment, just mover overseas. go somewhere where it's cheaper. go somewhere where labor is cheaper and you can buy cotton cheaper. it basics the ag business in the united states and unskilled workers that have a lifetime in these mills. we've gotten to be experts at transforming a 1930 mill into something different than a manufacturing facility because we've lost so many textile companies in our state. i would encourage a no vote. >> senator from north carolina expresses my view pretty well. i can't support this amendment. i unders
