next hour i'm joined now by democratic senator lisa blunt rochester of delaware. she serves on the senate commerce committee, among others. senator, thanks so much for being with us. on elon musk in his efforts. if this is, in fact, pumping the brakes a bit from the president, what do you think prompted it? >> well, you know, first of all, let's start with the premise that any president can have a vision. but this vision, instead of being responsible, has been reckless, whether it is the, you know, whether it's the federal employees who keep us safe and healthy, who are being with a chainsaw, whether it's a chainsaw, a wood chipper, a scalpel, whatever tool they want to use. as the former secretary of labor in delaware and a person who served as the head of state personnel, this is not workforce planning. this is not how you do things. it is really just chaos, confusion and cruelty. and then today, with the tariffs, we are seeing the impact of the tariffs on the american people as well. i think, though, bottom line, i think they're starting to hear from our consti

we in a situation where donald trump's proposal for peace and ukraine has provoked this mass of rochester and all of militarized ation. doesn't make any sense. so, i mean, the things you know, they say it's excellent. everybody knew that you prayed was never going to join nasal. that was never going to happen. he said, what everybody knew. i know, suspect ukraine comes when the war it smoke, but they haven't falls a road to the yard or they're useless or anything like that. just look at a map. ukraine is a fraction the size of the ocean, which is a joint, you know, nuclear power on their boards or do the songs. it just doesn't make sense. and i think stop the war in britain is actually for the war such as such as being the circle left in european countries. and we have moved much. but on censorship and propaganda, i understand its getting pretty bad in your as regards the continuing genocide in gauze, old, the at the trump stopped the aerial bombardment of gaza. trump is talking to hum us, we understand. and uh, how bad is it is were goods uh, what's happening in palestine because of your

countries in the west which are still a very disappointed that they lost all the wars they came to rochester. they will continue, and they want to miss you is ukraine in of war against russia? that's the kind of acceptance. and in the end, he's down broad, but the enough to see that okay, united states is impossible to, to continue in this work. i hope that in few weeks, maybe in a month, they've changed it. i think it's tomorrow to be very hard for us, but it's still more and more people and more and more of uh, politicians, either you or if you need me on the call for peace. call 46544, normalization of relations to be the restaurant. this was a message me. there was a report by russian intelligence that came out yesterday saying brussels quote, wages war against leaders supporting at donald trump. and now you're a european parliament member. what have you seen and that, um, do you see this taking place of the fella? so it goes to the lot from the end of maybe 2 of you would've been parliament, you know, the major anything to you to be in the bottom. and then the so i would say quality cen

amy from rochester hills volunteered recently on a sixth grade field trip. you all remember field trips, right? the bus ride is loud and full of excitement about the day ahead. well, on this bus, amy said it was silent. all the kids were glued to their phones. amy's daughter wishes she was born before social media. our educators get it. it's hard to teach geography or geometry when you're competing against memes or dm's. other states, red and blue, have taken action. so has most of europe and canada. i understand the need to be connected to your child, but we can do better. this year, let's pass bipartisan legislation to limit the use of phones in class. we've seen encouraging data about how common sense restrictions on phone use during class lead to more learning and less bullying. kids listen, they raise their hands, they make more friends. >> you can watch this program in its entirety if you go to our website, c-span.org. we leave it here and take you to an economic policy conference. live coverage on c-span3. >> we are going to do a wrap up today of our

whether people labor at steel in buffalo, rochester, carrier in syracuse, the southern tier, or longsland, over the years, they would have felt so betrayed, they had done everything they were supposed to do, but the jobs left. every single one of my five siblings wanted to stay and had to leave home because jobs were more plentiful in other states. that really hurt. it was not just the jobs leaving. it was hoped that was leaving -- hope that was leaving, too. i tell you that is not to give you a history lesson but to reinforce why these fights are so personal to me and i feel like this happened just yesterday. the same way the millennials felt in 2008-2010 when the great recession undermined their futures. i will tell you this. i don't ever want the people of the state, our neighbors, to have the same sense of anxiety that was so pervasive when i was younger. that's why i decided to stay and fight. witnessing the struggles, the pain of those left behind. it inspired me to run for office and be a voice for communities that had fallen. -- fallen on hard times. because i had lived that

the northern district covers albany, utica, up to canada and then buffalo, rochester. that basically is how the state of new york is divided in terms of the federal districts. i think there are 94 federal districts, not 96. we have four of them. so eastern district and southern district, basically those in the united states are the primary courts which handle a lot of high-profile cases because it is new york and it basically is a rough education about how the federal courts go about doing their business. peter: when you are watching a relatively modern series like the sopranos, are you seeing reality? judge block: actually, i had a major mafioso case, the peter gotti prosecution after his brother john died in prison, somebody had to take over the family, they gambino family. and peter, he was not really caught up in that world like his brother was and some other members of the family but he was the uncle and they made him the head of the family, to keep it in the family, i guess. so then the government prosecuted peter in this wide sweeping indictment several years ag

david hall rivas, seth moulton, lisa blunt, rochester, some really young, great democrats who are not coming in with 50 years of baggage, who maybe weren't at d-day physically and who, who, who want to progress the party forward in a clear eyed way. but there's also another problem that democrats really don't want to face. i say this all the time. they've got some bad math, and the bad math is policies that did not work. you can tell me all day long that biden's border policy was good. it was not americans totally, totally disagreed with me with with with that policy. you can say that the economy was great under biden. americans disagreed with your inflationary economic policy. you can say crime was down. americans disagreed with your soft on crime policy. if they don't address those three policy issues, then none of this matters. those are the things that are going to get them voted into office again and restore that confidence that a lot of people are. >> lacking in some of those situations, that we are dealing with an electorate that's being lied to. we are we are at crime in ameri
