senator sasse should be clear about his.inally, republican senators ought to resolve to speak to the rest of us like adults. no more baby talk. stop with the bumper sticker phrases from 1986. it's a different country now. the question isn't whether we are getting big government, too late. we already have it. in part thanks to you, republican senators. the question is whether we will become a socialist country run by a terrifying alliance of authoritarian big tech moguls and wide eyed identity politics cult members. that could happen. we are closer to it than our leaders acknowledge. just 11 months from now our system could change forever and swiftly destroy everything we have spent 240 years building. that's not an overstatement. it's horrifyingly real and it's being driven by deep economic dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction professional conservatives here in washington spend most of their time either ignoring or pretending doesn't exist. these are supposed to be the guardians of capitalism. somehow they don't seem to notice i

of sass, let's unpack what he said about billionaire george soros, obviously, a big liberal backer who giuliani is clearly not a fan of. he says don't tell me i'm anti-semitic if i oppose him. soros is hardly a jew. i'm more of a jew than soros is. he doesn't belong to a synagogue. he doesn't support israel. he's an enemy of israel. dana, giuliani doesn't seem to be too concerned about how he'll be remembered when asked about his legacy. he actually said f it. is this shocking you and surprise you? this guy was the mayor in the wake of the 9/11 tragedy who had a lot of respect across the country. that doesn't seem to matter to him as much. >> that's what he says. if he didn't care about his legacy, he wouldn't be trying to vindicate himself. he says he's trying to vindicate his client, which is true, but he's also trying to vindicate himself because he's the tip of the spear here. he is leading this whole thing and go back to how it started. it was conversations that he had with the president. information he was also feeding to john solomon who was a climpt f columnist for the hill. wh

this was the focus of ben sasse's comments that the -- comments at the kavanaugh hearing, where he saidongress doesn't resolve anything anymore, congress is the place where -- where we are supposed to hash out policy views or what have you, and everything is being swept to washington and then congress isn't resolving it and pushing it to the administrative agencies ended ultimately gets put into the courts because you can only sue them and that is why there are protests in front of the supreme court instead of congress. i'm skeptical of new regulatory trends, but that is separate to whether you can draw those kinds of laws in a way that is proper in terms of regard for the administrative state. debate so much of this argument, we talked about nondelegation in the supreme court, and it seems the administrative state is almost certainly a function of the judiciary. from this perspective, it matters quite a bit who is in the executive branch. how do you think the trump administration has fared in raining in the administrative state? now, raining in the administrative state is difficult, be

this was the focus of ben sasse's comments one year ago now, if any of you were following that, he talkedbout the dynamic whereby congress doesn't resolve anything anymore, you know, the legislature is the place where we are supposed to hash out clashes of value or policy views or whatever. everything in this pluralist society is being swept washington and congress is not resolving it. it is pushing it to the administrative agencies which gets thrown into the court ultimately. you can only sue them. that is why there are protests in front of the supreme court and congress, which is bizarre. i am skeptical of new regulatory trends, but i think that is separate from whether you can draw those laws good or bad in a way that is proper in terms of the regard for the administrative state. >> so much of this seems to concentrate on the debate -- we talked about nondelegation and the supreme court -- it seems it was almost certainly a function of the judiciary. from this perspective, it matters quite a bit it was in the executive branch right now. how do you think the trump administration so far

wall street is focussed on the short term outcomes you see this on the enterprise companies from the sasserspective. we sold more long term revenue which we can book every month. and we sold less short term revenue like on the instant gratification. we had a $30 million shift and we sold more long term stuff than short term stuff. we meet our number of $870 million so from my perspective it's nothing systematic all we saw is our people selling better for what we wanted to achieve in the long term and taking our eye off the ball for the short tell i'd take that trade every day. i want to do both very well. and we made changes to be able to do that we have not changed our guidance for the full year or for the three-year forecasts we put out for the analysts we have raised the guidance for the year. >> all right so i have said good things about cyber arc. i have followed the path of z scale and crowdstrike. you directly have been taking on z and you have been taking on crowd strike tell me where i maybe shortsighted in thinking say the cyber -- are the ones to invest in. >> look, i think jim

like netflix and privacy companies like apple and other companies that sell box top software through sasse microsoft, the great successes of the platforms and services, we know there's another way to create economic value. i think there's a concern that this will somehow strangle the internet was no longer think that, we know that argument was never true the good news is that consumers can finally know what companies know about them. they can finally understand that companies are sharing data without their knowledge and permission with people they can't identify for a purpose they don't know. they can see their own data trails and participate in the bonanza that comes from data is the new oil. i'm excited about this by the way, efforts in congress for privacy are being influenced heavily by companies like facebook that are trying to basically create anti-privacy bill and call it privacy bill. i'm very worried indeed. good news, trump doesn't like facebook also doesn't like california see which one helikes less >> all right we'll see how it plays out thank you for joining us >> thank you >

. >> talk about sass companies, they took a beating in the fall.fy is really a platform do you think that it makes sense fundamentally that those rebounded and the others haven't or do they -- are they likely to come down or those like workday going back up? >> i am more focused on the internet space if you look at tech broadly, there's a dispersion in terms of outperformers and underperformers, something like shopify with exposure to e-commerce that they do, seeing strong numbers out of black friday 20% growth in e-commerce spending you have seen the kind of outperformance across that group, benefitting them as a whole. you have underperformers within tech that missed this kind of rally. the ones that are sort of most exposed to regulation have been central to that. so i think this hasn't been the kind of rally that's been across the market it has been much more company specific because of factors like that >> huge year for ipos, some of them good. a many more underperforming. in terms of the next classes or generations of tech companies vorlts ne

and we should have a particular contempt for those senators who we know know better, the ben sasses of world, the rob portmans of the world, the john thunes of the world. why is it that these men want to be united states senators? what is it that they're doing up there? they stand for office to defend this unprecedented corruption, this assault on the constitutional order, this erosion of civil liberties. in this country despite all this flaws it's a miracle. it was a miracle birthed in 1787. no republic has endured permanently, and this one is in trouble because the american people in substantial numbers are losing sight of the majesty of this system of government. which is based on the premise that no man or woman is above the law. in this country the law is supreme. and we see one of the two great political parties in the country, the second -- excuse me, the third oldest political party in the world transforming in a matter of 36 months into a cultive personality where the allegiance isn't to the flag, isn't to the country, isn't to the constitution but to a man, to a person. and a

pressure to be reviewed and reformed, it will survive, you have people like yourself or senator ben sasse who said yesterday i spent a lot of time defending the fisa process and defending the fisa court but to find out there were these abuses was eye-opening. >> some of these are outrageous be frank and i don't know why chairman schiff is not upset about being lied to by members of the team that investigated this, cross fire hurricane team which is what the fbi refers that to you. fisa collection to collect, to be able to get evidence without putting potentially involved in espionage and terrorism is important him up but this is an incredible power that should be used and we should be making sure that we are up to every standard to use this power and we found 17 examples of where information was omitted or incorrect and it changed. and the one that is most outrageous to me is that carter page was working for another intelligence organization and because of that activity, the focus on the cross fire hurricane team believed he was working with the russians. to me, that is absolutely outrage

. >> reporter: 25-year-old jack merritt and 23 yield, sass kia jones. both were cambridge graduates, both passionate about giving even the most serious offender a second chance. it was this belief that brought them to an event near london bridge to discuss rehabilitation with former prisoners and a belief that put them into contact with usman kahn, a convicted terrorist out on license. the fact he was freed early has been seized upon by the prime minister, already pledging to get tough on law and order with the general election now less than two weeks away and days before a nato summit in the uk, which will see the country welcome world leaders including the u.s. president. >> i think it's repulsive that individuals as dangerous as this man should be allowed out after serving only eight years, and that's why we are going to change the law. >> i think there has to be an examination of how our prison services work, and crucially what happens to someone released from prison. >> reporter: over the weekend, authorities have increased their surveillance of cr

you are saying, we say -- this sass all records relating to and you say any record relating to. this is a very minute. what is the difference between all or any. this is a super, supe super. >> put your name up. >> can i show you something? >> yes. >> what if we did it this way. after the first sentence, of section 1-a we say, or penal code section cited and then, which list the type of records. so it includes the first sentence which is inclusive of that whole section and the penal code. >> i'm fine with that. >> we're just going to do -- >> yeah. >> we're going to direct everybody. >> that addresses the issue. >> that's fine. >> so instead of -- >> here is says these are the types, this is not a actually all types. i just want to clarify her point. i want to make sure we understand her point. >> we have to let each of us speak without interruption. i do get the chair and i want to understand. you are not on the list yet. you are saying instead of the period next to section 1-a you put a comma and or the word personal code 832 which means you basically capture anything that the

also consider reforms to safe guard civil liberties and i'm more in senator lee's camp than senator sasse. do you believe some of the problems that was uncovered by benefit from congressional action? >> we haven't talked about it, but that ise a very important point. as you know, we make recommendations to the department. we don't make recommendations to congress. congress though has i think important issuesng to think abo in this report as to how this process can be improved and ensure that these kind of errors are addressed going forward. >> inspector general, i'm grateful for your service and for your work. let me just conclude with one last question. president trump has repeatedly claimed that fbi agents and officials were biased against him. and worked to favor the campaign of his opponent hillary clinton. in your investigation, did you find that the fbi took any investigative step based on political bias? >> i'm going to be careful on that because of the rerl ferral made on the altered email and some of the other issues that we found on the fisa. >> didfo you find any substanti inve

of the e misconduct which is clear and is unrefuted in this hearing, theis mitt romney, the ben t sasse, people who have be fidel tus to their constitutional oates and say this is wrong, this is bad, unacceptable at all because clearly in this hearing we see no dispewtation of the facts, but we see no condemnation of the conduct. >> let's work on the refs. the republicans are working the ref and their only ref is donald trump. that's who they're r speaking t. the democrats are making an argument about this has been fair, the republicans are saying this is a terrible thing and get highlights on the news later tonight. the only thing i think the democrats are t missing at this point,ss occasionally put conte into this. a yearnt ago we had breath cavanaugh, republicans refused to give documentation. the president said they didn't want to r go. hillary clinton sat for 18 million hours of benghazi hearings and you can't get mick mulvaney to come in for one day. they're aon fight for two audiences. >> excellent points all around. two fact checks back into the hearings, oneck the talk about fa

in that same scene, we have senator ben sasse bursting into the anteroom and is angry at -- over some information he thought senator whitehouse was peddling that was adverse to judge kavanaugh and he says, where is shellon, i want to fight that guy. so it's ick -- both the crowded marx brothers scene and lick a high school gymnasium. so, we're here and i probably wouldn't have written this book had it not been for a the uproar over the kristine blasey ford allegations and except for those who are members of my immediate family or the book group i hayes been part of you wouldn't be here either itself wasn't for christine blasey ford. but what i want to talk but in man way -- a lot of people i see in the program who have lived this along with me. the story of the kavanaugh confirmation is bigger and in many ways more important than the showdown that is transfixed us all in the fall of 2018. i wanted to tell the story put what happened hen the scenes buts i did want to spend some time in the poock and spend some time this evening talking about the larger history and the broadser implicat

like the lines from one of terrance hayes's poems called "american sonnet for my past and future as":sassmething happens everywhere in this country every day. someone is praying. someone is prey." or how josÉ olivarez explores the danger of his own anger in the lines of his poem, "poem in which i become wolverine:" "i know my rage is poison. i know it kills me first." and still i lovet and feed it." poetry isn't a place of answerio and easy sol. it's a place where we can admit to an unknowing, own our prite despair, and still, sometimes, practice beauty. in my own work, i'm always trying to lean toward the real questions, as in my poem "dead stars:" "look, we are not unspeccular things. we've come this far, survived this much. what would happen if we decided to survive more?" believe people are reading more poetry because we distrust the diatribe, the easy answer, the argument that holds only one note. poetry makes its music from specificy and empathy. it speaks to the whole complex notion of what it means to be human. and that is exactly what we need more of these days-- a chance to be s

. >> senator sasse. >> thank you. mr. horowitz, thank you for being here. thank you to all of you. there are a number of things that are really troubling but some have been unpacked pretty fully so far. i'm going to pick up some loose ends. bruce ohr, who is he and what is his role of the department? then let's ask some questions about the bizarre pathway by which he became involved in this investigation. >> at the time of these events he was an associate deputy attorney general ahead of the crime drug task force. >> and that is connected to the russians interference how? >> it is not. >> what the hell is he doing here? stick with that was the concern that we lay out. he had no role in all of the cash in any of the election interference matters. >> have a bunch of people in the media who wanted to read this as a rorschach test and they wanted to have a predetermined answer for exactly how to interpret each piece and so is the chairman began today, he said predicated of investigation appropriate but some minor mistakes and errors were made. you've outlined in this report 17 signific

have heard this sort of thing happen with jeff flake, with susan collins, with mitt romney, with ben sasseings donald trump had done and then changed. you write this is part of a constant and larger pattern on the left and the cresting wave of hope that moderate republican will shed his or her disguise and take a stand against the president followed by the crash against the rocks of washington political reality that short of leaving the gop republicans will always vote the party line. so your research indicate that the evidence is that republicans will do that. yet democrats always think that it will go a different way. >> i think democrats have yet to let go of the kind of -- the myth that obama tried to make a reality, this era of post partisanship that he could not achieve because of republican kind of intransigence and blockading on the hill led by current senate majority leader mitch mcconnell. and i think that they are still holding out hope that there are still some republicans who are willi willing to cross the party line, still willing to vote what they see as, you know, the way o
