shelby: thank you mr. chairman. >> thank you senator shelby. continued interest in everything you're doing. do have a final comment? >> thank you mr. chairman to you and the members of this committee. it is a remarkable moment in history. to allow take a moment me to introduce to you the future senator from michigan, my granddaughter, she is sitting back there. please stand up. [applause] >> that is wonderful. >> i dream of a day when she doesn't have to worry about the health of her self, or maybe even her grandfather if you still interested in playing his guitar and riding his motorcycle 20 years from now. thank you for your support. >> thank you for being here. we hope you're still playing your guitar and writing a motorcycle 20 years from now. thanks for the directors for joining you today. the records they open for one week for additional questions. the subcommittee will stand in recess until june 27 at 1030 -- 10:30 a.m. [chatter] this weekend on c-span3, today on the civil war, the disbanding of the confederate army is discussed by profe

shelby, senator susan collins says she's waiting on the cbo score to come out.e of those on the fence, what are you expecting from the cbo score? >> well, it's hard to -- i don't to want forecast the cbo score, but the big number to look for is how many would lose insurance under this bill? the number in the house was 23 million, so if it can beat that number, that might give some senators more, more courage to get behind it. we're also looking at thousand affects the budget. and generally the big sticking point is medicaid and how long and how far should the medicaid expansion rollbacks go and should we cap medicaid? offer block grants? medicaid seems to be the biggest issue though there are smaller issues, defunding planned parenthood for one year for example is something senator murkowski said she can't get behind. senator collins expressed concerns behind that. there are some little nuances in the bill as well that could be negotiated this week. >> david, do you expect the cbo score to help or hurt mitch mcconnell as he tries to rally his troops to vote for

but, guys, i would ask you and shelby to you.s isn't going to stop them from investing in renewable energy. >> what is going to really change? as i said earlier, market sources make it profitable to invest in renewable energy and also under tremendous pressure from shareholders and customers to reduce their carbon footprints. to clean things up. they will push forward with these investments and continue to comply with the paris agreement. and, so, they like this framework because it levels the playing field for big business and small businesses, international businesses and now we have a lot of uncertainty. donald trump left the door open saying maybe we'll go back into the paris agreement. now who knows. you never know. >> the withdrawal that was not permanent. but you never know. the administration has so far been sketchy on what renegotiation will look like and what terms they want. part of that is a negotiation tactic on their part. when you look at what these businesses are doing. we have seen states and mayors coming out an

into the trump presidency and trump is just as vicious and vulgar as ever and that's politics panel shelby and the guys here who will join me to discuss whether the trump's temperament makes him one fit to perform his duties as president. scott broad c.p.a. moved on tuesday to rescind the clean water rule that was designed to limit pollution and about two thirds of all the nation's bodies of water move comes months after trump signed an executive order in february instructing pruitt to start the process of legally rolling back the water rule even though the rule had not yet taken a fact as a result of lingering legal questions. republican party and trump's bass ale this move is a bit wet over so-called job killing regulations that quote would have put backyard ponds potholes and prairie potholes under washington's control and quote but is that really true or is this really just about letting big business push their cleanup costs onto the public in the form of toxic water joining me for more on this story is patty lovera assistant director for food and water watch welcome back hi thanks gre

shelby: but this is a problem, is it not? mr. rosenstein: it is a challenge in regards to some state and locals. of. shelby: there are a lot people wanting to question you, so senator shaheen. outletsheen: many news last night and this morning are isorting that trump considering firing special counsel robert. under the regulations governing the appointment of a special counsel, and i quote, "these special counsel may be removedned or move -- from office only by the attorney general. the attorney general may remove a special counsel for dereliction of duty and other cause, including violation of departmental policy. shalltorney general inform in writing the specific reason for his or her removal." matter,erstand, in this you are the one exercising hiring and firing authority, because attorney general sessions is recused, is that correct? mr. rosenstein: that is correct. sen. shaheen: at this point, heidi seen any evidence of good cause for firing of special counsel molar? mr. rosenstein: i have not. sen. shaheen: have you given th

shelby, starting with you, there seems to be quite a bit of political opposition. we know of four senators that will not go along with this. what would convince them otherwise? is there an opportunity to negotiate their way to final bill in a realistic time frame? >> well they do have a short window to negotiate. we know that they will be holding some debates on the senate floor next week. they will have time to propose amendments. could see something similar in the house. have the bill, majority of republicans back it, but you still need more republicans on board. they meet in the middle, come up with amendments, more state waivers, flexibility for states to reach a yes. 50 republican votes. but there is not much time. keep in mind this bill has to go back to the house and be approved by the house. it could get tricky, you have to meet in the middle not just with the claim about but the other side of congress. trish: hadley heath manning, there is differences between what we saw in the senate bill, what we saw in the house bill. one of the critical ones is the sen

cnn political director david chalian and shelby holliday. so, great to have both of you with me and david chalian, i mean, i think to jeff's point, this is so much more than math. this is like mega-philosophical differences between the different pieces of the spectrum of the u.s. senate. i mean, explain to me why it is so hard to get to 50. >> yeah, no, you're absolutely right. this isn't just -- although this will certainly be part of it -- cajoling and giving a little money here, i'll help you with some rural hospital program there, it's not just about finding pork to put back in the bill to get these votes on board. mitch mcconnell has to bridge a major ideological divide inside his own conference. i think it was john boehner, the former speaker of the house, that said, republicans have never agreed on what to do on health care and i think that's proving to be true right now, because brooke, if indeed mitch mcconnell goes a little bit more conservative with the bill to bring on ted cruz or mike lee, get them more comfortable with maybe ge

first, kimberly dosher, and business reporter for "the wall street journal," shelby holiday. so, shelby, comey's testimony is now compared to anita hill back in 1991 when she went on and testified about sexually being harassed by clarence thomas who was at the time being confirmed by the u.s. supreme court. is this so built up, that people will be let down? >> the hype is certainly there. obviously we're talking about different issues, different people. all eyes are on comey this week. people are curious whether or not he will be able to testify in the first place. the white house does seem at this point that it thinks it's too politically risky to invoke executive privilege to prevent comey from going under testifying. we will see him up there, i believe. but there are so many questions. and they're very nuanced tiny questions that would tell us a lot. for example, did president trump invite comey to dinner or did comey invited president trump to dinner? president trump said one thing, comey may say another thing. president trump's been very vocal about his relationship with

blunt: senator shelby. mr. shelby: madam secretary, thank you for your service and thank you for taking on -- taking on a job that's so challenging and we all realize that. madam secretary, in your testimony you stated you support expanding educational options for low-income families regardless of their zip code. specifically, you stated that you are committed to locally developed student centered charter school programs. in many rural areas in america, including my state of alabama, the infrastructure needed to establish and effectively run a charter school just doesn't exist. however , in some of these areas, there are established stewings of higher learning. small colleges, some universities that know the unique needs of education of students. many of these rural areas are in need of alternative educational options if they don't -- that they don't have today. the question is, would you be open to examining the idea of a rural -- of rural institutions of higher education establishing charter schools to create

shelby is reporter for the "wall street journal" in new york. in washington, chris stirrewalt. greg, start with you. surprised by results tonight? did you see it closing in the last few days? >> we saw it closing but we didn't realize it would be this wide of a margin for handel. this looked easier than it seemed in the field. every poll showed it razor thin. it was not even close by the end of it. this is a six-point margin where jon ossoff wasn't able to improve on hillary clinton's margin in georgia. >> bret: so is this a situation where the polls are wrong again? >> well, now, wait a minute. >> i'm just asking. >> i'm just saying that the poll, we did see the late polls that showed -- we don't care about the top line number as much as the movement. in the closing weeks the movement for karen handel was clear. she was closing the gap. as the focus on the race came down to the make or break, the do or die, if the republicans lose this the party will be exploded by the nuclear bombs and cast in a by -- in an abyss and they will die, they said we better vote. what the democrats

senator shelby. >> i was in another committee. sorry. dr. collins, how much money overall in the u.s. by not just nih but all of the governmental agencies, v.a., has spent on biomedical research and how much is spent out of the private sector. whatever it is it's not enough. i know that. >> so, the nih budget you all have overseen and thank you for your strong support and a very pipe way, this has now led us to 34 billion. the v.a. part i don't have the number in front of me. >> furnished some of that for the record. >> happy to do that. the private sector outspends government supported by a factor of 2 or maybe more than 2. 2-1, 3-1 in that space. we're talking about an overall span in the neighborhood of $100 billion a year. >> how much of that is complimenta complimentary, do you record nate sum, the guess vers in the private sector and other government aus there is a lot of overlap there. >> its -- encourage the collaborative, and this project -- >> how do we do that? >> we have a model that is w

senator richard shelby chairs the appropriations subcommittee on science. at the hearing will come to order. i am pleased to welcome acting administrator robert lightfoot to the commerce and science appropriations subcommittee hearing to examine nasa's fiscal year 2018 budget request. mr. lightfoot my works well together during his tenure as the director of nasa's flight center in huntsville alabama. mr. lightfoot thank you for serving as nasa's leader during this time of change and i appreciate you joining us here today. the administration has proposed a fiscal year 2018 budget of $19.1 billion for nasa which is a reduction of 2.9% from the current year level. while this overall cut is less than many other agencies that have experienced the president's budget request reflects a significant reduction of 561 million dollars. this budget request attempts to navigate a challenging fiscal environment that would disrupt ongoing missions and delay future explorations for years to come. there are proposals to eliminate the entire education director at using the ra

shelby holliday? >> this under cscores the confusion with the administration. one hand is not talking to the other, whether it's the debt ceiling or climate or taxes. but they are saying that this is in america's best interests. climate change has a huge economic angle. people say if the temperature continues to rise, that hurts industries, agriculture, manufacturing, incomes will fall. it has a global economic impact. and so that's one of the big reasons everyone in the world has been addressing it. i do think it's really fascinating that donald trump is a jobs first, america first, economy first president but yet he ignored from fortune 500 ceos. it's not a surprise that he pulled out of the paris agreement. it's something he said he would do on his campaign trail. we can't be shocked that he did it. >> we've got to leave it there for a moment, guys. stand by, everyone. more breaking news to talk about at this hour. the white house suggests president trump is deciding whether to use executive privilege to try and block fired fbi director james comey from test

because he assumed shelby was a black prop.y black friend, therefore i can use the n-word or say something. i think bill maher has talked enough on equality and being a progressive that he feels he has carte blanche. he can make these jokes but the fact is, the joke is real. house. he was making a joke about some kind of suffering. >> juan: the thing i don't get, k.g., we hear all these complaints about bill maher. why not about these black rappers who use these words to access? they are equally degrading. >> kimberly: if you are saying there's a double standard -- it's a word inappropriate to use. it should not be used by anybody. i think what bill maher did is absolutely reprehensible. i'm shocked somebody like himself would do and say something like that. i don't know. if he thinks he's above it and isn't going to be held accountable, that's really sad. >> juan: i agree. jesse, what do you make of the fact that this comes on the heels of kathy griffin? it seems like the provocateurs are running wild. >> jesse: i think the le

chairman shelby: senator coons. senator coons: thank you, mr. chairman. deputy attorney general rosenstein thank you for being ere. you are here because attorney general sessions abruptly canceled his commitment to appear before this committee it is the attorney general's job to be here today. the fact he has again chosen to skip this hearing is unacceptable. the attorney general, believe, has chosen to skip this hearing today in order to avoid difficult questions about the scope of his recusal. questions which have already been asked of you by several senators, but i'll attempt to explore it further. i do think it's important that we have a full and engaged conversation with the attorney general about the department of justice in front of both the judiciary committee and the appropriations subcommittee responsible for the entity he still leads. let me start briefly with some good news, if i might. mr. rosenstein, you're here in part to talk about the budget of the department of justice. in 2014 congress demonstrated its commitment to the victims of child

joining me now deroy murdock and shelby holliday.mbers, the average congressional race, $1.3 million if you were the winner. this is so outside what normally happens. will money make the difference? >> this is the kind of spending you see in u.s. senate races, in texas and illinois. trish: amazing. >> in june, and a special election. >> remarkable. gerri: crazy. >> the stakes are high for republicans. if karen handel wins she'll be reliable in the house. if ossoff wins, moderate republicans will dive under desks and get harder to get president trump's agenda passed. if you want to see the agenda passed, go to karen handel. three minutes, get in line. gerri: breaking right now. shelby to you. when you look into this, who has the edge do you think? we see the polls say one thing, but do you think either of the candidates can make a difference? >> i think karen handels hat edge, and i'll say this, today it rained and i've been getting messages from democrats and republicans, i was down there last week, democrats are nervous, they say th

shelby holliday is here. they're both wanting to win it. why is it so critical? >> this race is so high. it's making people do things they have never done before. i met voters putting up signs for the first time, new yorking on doors. these are older women that never ever in their lives have been politically active. now they know the stakes are high. >> you're seeing it on both sides. >> both sides. for the democrats, stakes are high because of the money pouring into this race. you have a 30-year-old political novice that has never held elective office but he's energized his base, this is john ossoff. he has the money and the energy in democratic party. if he can win, could help unite the party and could help energize them moving into the mid-terms. if he loses, the fear is that all this money, all this campaigning, all of this frenzy doesn't matter. so the wind would be taken out of their sails. >> trish: so the democrats need this win and looking to mid-terms and saying, we won't stand for anything. we don't have a platform. we are anti-trump. is being anti-tru

richard shelby, who is the chairman of the rules committee, put out a statement and said at no pointvery try to change the rules. we are not trying to interfere with press coverage. earlier today, or last night, i tried to do an interview with a couple senators about health care. rand paul of kentucky and bill cassidy of louisiana. they are very involved in the issue and i said outside by the senate steps and technically i'm told i was in violation because i didn't get the approval. but now we are told later on that things are going to be getting back to normal. the radio tv correspondents association, which is the group which represents reporters on capitol hill, the electronic media, put out a statement saying we are condemning this in the strongest possible terms. i am told at the end of the day here, that this was a miscommunication. senator shelby is saying things are back to normal but they are still reviewing the rules for press coverage. part of this has been brought on by the crush of reporters descending on capitol hill to cover senators at this very hectic news time. >> br

shelby? >> yes. absolutely. i think what is really important, i just got an e-mail from a legal expert who said donald trump is losing control of the narrative. the president does not seem to be getting any help from senator -- now attorney general jeff sessions from his lawyers. he has people out there swinging for him. and they're not helping his case. and so the narrative is getting lost. as the narrative gets lost, president trump is not helping himself by tweeting and appearing to try to influence justice. i won't say obstruct. i think that's much more difficult to prove. you have to prove intent. but he's trying to influence the investigation. he is threatening the people investigating him. you know, he sending out provocative tweets about tapes and about these justice officials. he's fired sally yates. he fired jim comey. he's fired others. the narrative keeps mushrooming and he cannot stop it. >> i don't want to focus on this just because i happen to be a lawyer, but i do it this lawyering of the other o

hello i'm don shelby. what you're about to see is one of the most exciting and humbling assignments of my career. i was asked to interview bill moyers. it's something like playing the piano for mozart. because to my mind bill moyers is the greatest broadcast journalist of our age. he's won more than 30 national emmys, a lifetime achievement award for the national academy of television arts and sciences, nine george foster peabody awards, the broadcast equivalent of the pulitzer prize, three george polk awards, and the dupont-columbia golden baton. he's introduced us to some of the world's most remarkable people in his one-on-one interviews and shared with us a world of ideas. and he once took us inside his own family in a very personal way. he's authored 12 books. i'm incompetent to properly introduce bill moyers there's simply not enough time. before a studio audience a man known for his modesty and his reluctance to talk about himself, agreed to sit down with me for a conversation i shall never forget. l
