that is very important because social security is their benefit security derives from that structure.his goes back to the time of franklin roosevelt. he didn't want a ram battling for funding each year. didn't want a program where it was continually subject to the whims of politicians as to what the benefit rules would be. he wanted something where people could say, we earned these benefits, we paid for these benefits, we funded these pend on them. social security has delivered that. there is a catch. it only workss long as lawmakers are willing to align the programs benefit schedules with it tax schedules. if they are not going to do that, ty are no longer willintoe this kind of self financing system. unfortunately, the program is badly out of balance now,es repg us that a negative changes need to be made. host: the retirement trust fund can pay 100% of benefits until the year 2033, less than 10 years from now. after 2033, reserves will become depled they n continue to pay u to 77% of benefits, but the disability insurance trust fund could pay 100% of its how concerned should congres

i lead the cyber security division and worked in cyber security for most of my career. i was doing private sector cyber security before that. i was doing it for agencies. i came about my current role in a different way. my person nal story i was 16 years old. weapon in medical school that was when the d.c. sniper was effecting so many communities. i'm sure a lot of you remember that. i object severed with such an emotional resonance. the fact that when so many people were, for very good reasons, cowering in their homes, canceling events. taking precautions. our first responder communities were the ones surging to respond. i got my emt lessons. on a 20 plus year journey and working at the state fire academy in the state of illinois. working as a volunteer firefighter and most recently in maryland. public safety and the fire service has been the through line of my person nal self identity and lived exexperience into the cyber security area of our space. i volunteered in maryland until i had my third kid awhile ago. that's more than i can bare. i did it until this point. i

peace , security, ensuring the national security of our country, armed defense, in accordance with thein essence, it contains the foundations of the military policy of our country, the main provisions remained unchanged, military doctrine, the most important thing.. which in wartime is transformed into state defense, the basis is the armed defense of the country. in general, i would say that the military has become inactive a little more broadly, a chapter has appeared related to the implementation of international obligations in the field, primarily peacekeeping activities, therefore, if the old document had five chapters and 10 sections, the current military doctrine already consists of six chapters and... sections, document it turned out, in my opinion, to be systematic, methodological, specific, taking into account the realities of the modern, modern situation, and providing a foundation for the future, for the future, in general, in my opinion, what are the strengths of this document is, firstly, its clearly expressed national character, we are not copying anyone in this document,

first, the interagency security committee led by the cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency establishing the security standards at federal facilities. the federal protective service then uses those standards to see what safety measures can be improved. they identify risk to the federal facilities and then make recommendations as to how to navigate them. they conduct thousands of these assessments each and every year. they submit these assessments to federal agencies, recommending countermeasures like security cameras, access control systems and x-ray screening equipment. the tools make it easier to protect these facilities and the americans who use them every day. unfortunately, these recommendations are rarely implemented. from 2017 to 2021, the submitted over 25,000 of these reports. federal agencies completely ignored roughly half of those. what agencies didn't acknowledging the recommendations, the only approved 27% of the recommended security measures. factors like cost and bureaucratic hurdles often make it easier to maintain current systems. in other words, we are get

willal security doesn't need social security doesn't need a commission. it doesn't need to go behinded it -- helped closed doors. it -- behind closed doors. it needs a vote. just like the vote we're giving today, to this commonsense proposal. a vote on social security pure common sense. because it assis 70 fellow americans. this is not democrat or republican. this is about your brothers, your sisters your families, your aunts your uncles,ith and people in your communities. and speaking of c benefits. this is an enormous economic development plan because the money goesirectly to the individual. and where do those individuals spend that social security money? right back in your district. right back in the district that these individuals live in. it helps out the local pharmacist, it helps out t store. it helps out individuals. this is something that should be embraced by both sides. ironicically in the past when social -- ironically in the past when social security has been enhanced it happened under dwightdwight eisenhower and under mr. nixon as well, but

. assessment of the state of national security, determination of national security indicators in alle head of our state, these are the changes, the main changes came from the citizens of our society, the citizens of our country, they were brought to the attention of the president and members of the security council at the security council, approved, and the president instructed to complete the document and prepare to pass the exam at the entire belarusian people's assembly in front of the citizens of our country. the fact that we are here in the museum of the modern belarusian state. at the meeting of the security council , the draft of a new military doctrine was also discussed. in your opinion, what provisions are currently included in it? what is military doctrine? this is a system of officially accepted views on issues of maintaining international peace, security, ensuring the national security of our country, armed defense, in accordance with the defense plan. that is, in essence, it lays the foundations of our country’s military policy. the basic provisions remained, as it were

we are focusing on social security.igher immigration tends to increase social security. immigrants pay taxes before they become beneficiaries, and they tend to be younger than the general population. you get a considerable burst of revenue when you have higher immigration. in the trustees report each year there is a sensitivity analysis which shows how program finances look with higher levels of immigration, lower levels. program do better with higher levels of immigration. i have to caution, nothing changes the progressions too much, when you are talking inflation, immigration, fertility, the basic contours remain the same. we are just improving around the edges but immigration does improve the finances of social security in general. host: patty on the line for republicans, out of the steel city. good morning. caller: i have a question and comment. i am a boomer. into social security. the politicians couldn't keep their sticky hands off of it. they kept on stealing our money. now they are telling us we have a problem,

security assistance delivered ukraine. we have seen no credible evidence of the misuse or illicit diversion of america equipment provided to ukraine. but what we do see is ukraine using the capabilities that we have provided to defend itself against russian aggression. now, i want to take a few minutes to commend the allies andartners have risen to the moment i announce important new long-term security assistance packages since we last met. this includes significant announcements by his dystonia, germany, latvia, with the way neah, the netherlands, norway, sweden, and the united kingdom. taken together these commitments will announce the billions of dollars in additional military aid for ukraine. we must continue to focus on ukraine's immediate battlefield needs and on helping ukraine to strengthen modernize and sustain his defense forces for the long haul. that's why the united states hosted the industrial base conference last month with the goal of ushering in a new era of cooperation to meet ukraine's long-term security

the draft concept of national security and military doctrine.lthough we are talking about complex documents, the topic is not at all boring, especially in these times. the focus is on the letters that actually define what peace , war is, and in what cases the power component can become dominant in people’s lives. in addition, according to the new constitution, both documents are approved by the all-belarusian people's assembly. and this. of course, this is not the only thing regarding the concept and doctrine for the first time. let us immediately note that not all countries have such documents; their very presence speaks of the country’s maturity, ability start from the foundation by naming problems and taking responsibility in clearly defined acute situations. so, the doctrine: what is important in its draft is that global changes in the world are not simply indicated, but are recorded in the context of amendments to the military security system. in other words, the document not only answers the question. how to adapt to everything new, but th

that's right, verbal agreements, but they are not reached in matters of security, security guaranteesespecially since these two words of security guarantees, they say that the document had to comply with the international the convention on agreements and... speech, which provides for the mandatory implementation of national constitutional norms from the point of view of actual ratification, i am not saying this for the first time, i hope that in the future, and perhaps in the case of great britain, at least ukrainian the political leadership will return to this issue and send this document to the parliament for ratification, because i do not know... for what reasons, i cannot understand, for what reasons the lack of ratification of such a document was allowed, because from the point of view of the information motive, political sounding - it's a great step, it's a great step, another matter is why they didn't reach the actual legal basis for the actions of such a document, because you understand, when you and i are being told that what you see is not the right word in the budapest memo

, ukraine's security is part of the entire euro-atlantic security. that is why the guarantees provided will be valid until our accession to nato. if this happens earlier than the term of the agreement, the security architecture we have created will actually be incorporated into the security system of the entire alliance. we have now agreed with britain on security in all spheres: on land, in the air, at sea, in cyberspace. in broad political interaction , in detail in the agreement, regarding weapons, absolutely clearly regarding our state border, fundamentally, regarding sanctions, fairly, regarding compensating russia for the damages caused by its aggression, reliably, regarding post-war reconstruction, of course, as needed by ukraine and britain will be able to conclude additional sectoral agreements, this is an excellent result. united kingdom confirms the long-term nature of our relations, and this will be recorded in a separate document, the details of which i think the prime minister himself will tell about some of the details of this, and sep

it uses words like secure. he said the border was secure. he said operational control. phrases which could be interpreted differently by different people. the tape here is so thin on constitutional grounds that it's laughable. and what's really tragic is that this is wasted time that we could be spending to work together to actually fix the problem as the administration is trying to do and the senate is trying to do but instead, we are here, debating these very thin, flimsy, legal arguments for constitutional impeachment. i yield back. >> the gentleman's time is expired. >> i ask unanimous consent to enter the case we are talking about. number 22-v8 june 23, 2020. >> without objection, so ordered. >> i ask unanimous consent to enter for the record from the center for immigration studies titled by admitting massive numbers of parolees, secretary mayorkas seeks to bypass and subvert the entire immigrant system. >> without objection, so ordered. >> chairman. >> chairman. >> i recognized miss sheila jackson lee. >> i ask, include in the section 4 of the constitution of the

and it doesn't make israel easy to assure peace and security. the palestinian authorities that the authority to improve its governance and we will meet again tomorrow. if israel wants its arab neighbors to make the tough decisions necessary to help ensure lasting security, israeli leaders will have to make hard decisions themselves. when president biden addressed the people of israel days after the october 7 attack, he made a very simple pledge, the united states has israel's back today, tomorrow, always. the friendship between our nations is truly exceptional. it's our unique bond and america's enduring commitment to the people of israel that allows, indeed demands we're as forthright as possible in the moments where the stakes are highest, when the choices matter the most. this is one of those moments. happy to take some questions. >> the first question goes to simon lewis with reuters. reporter: thank you. mr. secretary, the feature of the gaza strip has been a theme of your trip while you've been visiting regional countries. i wonder today,

, sing the national security is u.s.urity and we first need to deal with the situation at the southern border before we go out and help one of our ales top republicans like mitch mcconnell was one of the foremost if not the foremost advocate for ukraine on capitol hill said fine, this is what we will do. this is how the senate bipartisan group came together to hash out details and come to an agreement on border security and it was meant to unlock aid for ukraine. it doesn't have to be linked to ■vone another but this was a demand that republicans have made which is why there's been a lot of questions about why republicans are now being skeptical of the bill and criticizing it. this is what they requested as art of ukraine. we can get into the conversation about ukraine aiden how there are number concurrence -- conservatives in the house are not giving the border security deal look because they don't want to advance it. it's become a very political mess. host: about 10 minutes left with michael hill. -- michael schnell. i

in the meeting of the security council regarding yemen , the abuse of the recent security council resolution against yemen by the united states and england to attack this country was criticized. the security council held two meetings: one about the situation in gaza and the other to review the us and british military aggression in yemen. in the first session , the assistant secretary general of the united nations for human rights described the israeli regime's action to displace people and forcibly evacuate gaza as a war crime. to solve this crisis. it should be noted that the attacks against israel on the 7th of october had many results it is a decade of human rights violations. the un humanitarian coordinator announced the death of 148 un employees in the attacks of the zionist regime on gaza . the situation in gaza is terrible. 1 million 900 thousand people who were forcibly displaced many times due to the rain of bombs and rockets. this meeting of the security council ended without any results for the people of gaza. in a meeting held by the security council regarding yemen, the assistan

and military security that today really threaten the independence and security of our country , the republic of belarus, we are talking about actions, subjects of international law, their views, their attitude towards the use of military force, including how this can affect the security of our country if it is military force will be applied in relation to belarus. don't miss important accents in ensuring national security in the draft issue number one for state secretary of the security council of belarus alexander volfovich today at 7:00 pm. focus on the training of future internal troops officers, taking into account realities, is already being done for military training. for 31 years, this department of the military academy has been preparing the best in their field, and in order to quickly and clearly respond to the challenges of the time, it is making adjustments to the training plan. from the second year , another discipline was introduced, drone operator: which the state will assign to us, as for the election campaign, the faculty was, is, remains the reserve of the commander

on a security supplemental that would include border security. that is the right approach but here is what i would like president biden in the country to know. if we do not fix parole there will be no deal. the numbers are absolutely shocking. the tool biden uses to implement open borders is the tool called parole. from fiscal year 2014, the last decade, obama and trump on average paroled 5623 people on average. last year fiscal year 22, the biden administration patrolled -- paroled 795,000 people. the law requires individual analysis of the parole request based on two factors. unique humanitarian need or special benefit to the country. there is no way they did an individual analysis on that many people. blanket parole approach is illegal and the biden administration will lose in court. they paroled 140,000 people from four countries. nicaragua, venezuela, cuba, haiti. that is not the law. the statute regarding parole requires individual analysis on two factors. they have been abusing the tool called parole and when you compare it to what other p

as you add in the security measures, you get more secure an increase the chance of delays in having to increase the transmission that were not in service with well-meaning legacy devices. it also increases the penetration of the alerts. those things have been studied extensively and there -- although there have been no recommendations to address this problem specifically. the feeling so far has been that the risk from this particular challenge which is geographically limited and requires specific conditions to actually be successful was lower than the risk being pointed out some of the other speakers of those originators with the span of those alerts being much larger. yes, there are unique alerts associated with these systems. as you can see in the context, the overall challenges. >> i appreciate that. stephen? i mean, christopher. i apologize. [laughter] >> k. we talked about a number of providers including the ecosystem. i think cybersecurity and our role in this ecosystem is denise sabean empty-handed analysis. -- is that it needs to be an empty-handed analysis. there is rule makin

crisis, devastating wars, terrorism, the israeli lobby, crackdown, diplomacy, no compromise national security. يا عمري يا عمري اختي حبيبته حبيبتي عمري ماس حبيبتي عمري ماسه. "iran strikes in iraq, syria and pakistan have been conducted while iran has stated that it does respect all nation's sovereignty and territorial integrity, yet it will not hesitate to act militarily if its own national security is threatened. has iran acted within the rules of international law, deterrance and defense of its own security? iran has been a victim of terrorism though since the early days after the victory of the islamic revolution. the most recent terrorist attack hit karman almost two weeks ago, claiming..." than 90 lives, many iranians, beat ordinary people, officials and nuclear scientists, have fallen victim to foreign-back terrorist attacks. in this edition of the spotlight, we will look at those who have acted against iran, now and in the past, like israel and the us, we have back terrorist groups committing terrorist acts against iran. first let me introduce our guest for this edition of the program.

when that the security of iq and pakistan are the security of the republic of iran. >> both disagreeth what you said. minister, let me ask you, you came onl$ my program and my in october 29th and she asked you, do you want the war to spread and you said no, we do not want the war to the spread, we do not want escalation. since then, hezbollah has launched attacks against israel, the houthis are attacking ships in red sea. you have attacked iraq, you attacked pakistan. it certainly seems that the actions of allies do not suggest that you are trying to keep this war from spreading. it seems as though you are encouraging an escalation. >> i agree with you in the weste witnessing enlargement of the crisis and detentions, but■; t n what happened seventh of october and hamas is liberation group that has been fighting against occupation to liberate the occupied territories of palestine. th an operation. of course, we never agree with or approve of the killing of women and children anywhere in the world but i want to tell you that it is not rooted on what happened on the seventh of october.

this is a national security issue and i am seeking an immigration solution that is strong secure andhumane. i implore my colleagues in the majority party to not jeopardize innocent lives and the safety of our communities by waiting to address this pressing issue until after the election. let us put those solutions up for a vote so the american people can see if we stand for results or if we stand for political theater. thank you ranking member nadler and i thank you for the time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. the gentleman from new york reserves. the gentleman from oregon is recognized. mr. bentz: thank you, mr. speaker. it seems to me that the democrats want to leave the border open andate the illegal presence of those in the united states. i want to inform the gentleman i'm prepared to close. i reserve. mr. nadler: mr. speaker i'm prepared to close. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentleman from new york is recognized. mr. nadler: i'll be very brief mr. speaker. this legislation does nothing to improve our immigration system, while making

and to ensure the security of ukraine , to ensure the security of the countries of central europe , tonsure the security of the countries of the european continent, further, to ensure the security of the countries of the north atlantic bloc, to ensure the countries of the euro-russian bloc and global security, these are actually these components, these components, they ... should not create a hedgehog in relation to each other, and it is most suitable to select all this, systematize, definitely the format ramstein, and here it is very important that , well, at least somehow in the format of ramstein for today , we move on to a conversation on this topic, because even the first thing we talked about with you, it looks like: these are some bilateral... and industry agreements, because it will be read like that from the point of view, actually, now, and what does it have to do with central european security, absolutely nothing, well, what we are talking about, like a mirage, like an intermarium there of two seas, three seas and so on , now how it will be formed in the system of relationsh

, the real security would occur and the true stability and security actually happens and there would be no war and no insecurity because the countries are the most important players in our region, it's just enough to get them their own power is just enough to have them capable to increase the capability and empower them to defend themselves so irony is pursuing such agenda such agenda to help them to defend them. and it is how it is working with different countries, so it is working with syria with the help of the syrian government, with iraq, and even we can see that, it could be analytically discussed that we had mr. rumi just recently in pakistan, it seems that even the today attack was something that was discussed with the pakistani government, we are out of time, i'm sorry for jumping get, let me thank my guest in tehran, elijah magner in brussels and thank you for watching this episode of the spotlight up in your host b, see you next time, enduring and surviving the genocide of the century happening in the largest open air concentration camp on earth in gaza does not stop the a

again, the president already has the authority to secure the southern border. even in precedent set by the supreme court in trump vs. hawaii, the president can make, quote, decisions whether and when to suspend entry, whose en suspend, for how long, and on what conditions, end quote. mr. speaker, president biden is acting as if congress has tied his hands, and the only way he can secure the border is with more congressional approval. the truth is that president biden has been sitting on his own hands for months on end. perhaps he should take a long, hard look in the mirror. i yield back, mr. speaker. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from connecticut, mr. courtney, for five minutes mr. courtney: thank you, mr. speaker. i want to take a minute this morning to look at the 118th congress, which just completed its first year of operation last december. it was sadly the least productive congress in memory. 31 bills were enacted during that first year of the 118th congress. again, that is a fraction of thn introduced in this congress. obvi o

when the national security legislation was put on the table, not least by yourself as security minister they're not able to do that. but what we have seen in recent months and years is many hongkongers voting with their feet and choosing to leave the territory if they can get a visa to go to somewhere else. i'm looking at the numbers who've gone to taiwan — more than 37,000 have secured temporary residency, nearly 6,000, permanent residency. 160,000 have taken advantage of an offer from the uk to ease visa rules for those coming from hong kong. the truth is, many hongkongers — particularly the better off, the very well—educated, those who are able to travel — want to get out as they see china suffocating your territory. talking about the emigration to britain, your government has actually breached its undertaking in the memorandum on nationality signed during the sino—british negotiations not to offer a route to right of abode to hongkongers who are chinese nationals. but address my point, which is to ask you why so many hongkongers want to leave? there has always been outflows of hong

had additional security controls in place. had additional information state and local election officials were showing that will be the case in 2024 because this community is robust and established rate what challenges do we face with the technology community? we heard illusions with the media. what election feels went there from 2020 through 2022 the threats, the harassment from the targeting is resulted in exodus. neil shared some numbers on how may have left and how we are leaving. this is significant these are members of this community we are taking time to work with to establish one of the risk tolerances? can it mitigate risk to the systems what steps do we need to be taken together? so now's your pivot toward 2024 there's an opportunity for cisa miss an opportunity in the private sector there's an opportunity for state and local two band back together re- dedicate themselves to some of the several work that we were doing for 2018 -- 2020 because there's a whole new community of election officials that did not ask for his
