so, hypothetically, counterfactually, one possible outcome could have been the ethics committee was allowed to go forward. they would have waited for the results and left the senate then. if the ethics committee had come out with some damming report. that didn't happen. senator franken resigned today. that means the ethics investigation will not happen. but now we know there will be an ethics investigation of this man, republican texas congressman blake farenthold. it was recently reported that $80,000 of taxpayer money was paid out to settle a sexual harassment claim from one of his staffers. it's been interesting this week, on the republican side while democrats have been twisting themselves into knots over those members of congress, there are almost no calls for blake farenthold's resignation or any consequences for him, despite the non-disputed revolutions that there was a taxpayer-funded settlement for allegations in his office and announced they will start an investigation into blake farenthold over that matter. speaker of the house paul ryan referred to the committee an allegation co

lack of a better word, they have specific criteria for how -- what documentation is required, so hypothetically, for a funeral and burial, obviously, it's a crime, it's a homicide, we -- we receive documentation from the inspectors in the homicide division, and then, of course, the invoice from the funeral home indicating what the cost of the expense would be, and then, it goes onto the claim support for the last checks and balances of what they're going to issue. >>supervisor cohen: okay. thank you. thank you very much. colleagues, do you have any other questions for miss deal i can't. if not, we'll go to public comment, see if there are any members of the public like to speak on these items. seeing none, public comment is closed. is there a motion? >>supervisor tang: i'll make a motion to this send this to the full board with a positive recommendation. >>supervisor cohen: we'll take that without objection. mr. clerk, could you call item 1, please. >> clerk: eyes 1, resolution authorizing the exercise of an option to extend the term of a lease for approximately 20,000 square feet, consisting o

>> that's correct, your honor, we -- >> so i'll give you my hypothetical. >> can i just clarify one thing before? that point is with respect to statutory claims. with respect to constitutional claims the analysis is slightly different. >> okay. that's fine. so now here's my hypothetical for you, and i realize that i'm going to say it in an extreme case, but sometimes hypotheticals help us to understand the limits of our principle. let's say the president sat down with his cabinet and they discussed things and decided the world's a very dangerous place these days. in fact, it's so dangerous that the president decided he's going to exclude entry from any person, from any place in the world, if they're not american citizens, under authority of 1182-f, and they make some detrimentality finding that it would be dangerous to u.s. residents if there were such entry. so would that be ges tissuable? >> i don't think so, your honor, first of all, something like that i don't think there would possibly be a constitutional argument. let's focus on the statutory piece for a second. on the statutory pie

that, that hypothetical, i think that demonstrates that an official act by a president, even if it's constitutionally delegated to the president, could still be the execution of some felly. >> so, say hypothetically that robert mueller and his team have evidence that they believe supports a charge of corruption of justice, of obstruction of justice against the president or vice-president. what then? can he prosecute them? >> well, i said before, that he would-- my view and i think that it's bolstered by historical evidence is that mueller cannot bring an indictment against a sitting president, but he could bring-- those functional problems do not pertain to a vice-president, right? so, other foreclosures besides the president could face indictment the same way that we've seen indictments of manafort and popadopolous and flynn, we could see that now in other cases. i think the bottom line, the right way to proceed historically based upon the constitution, is by impeachment and removal and then there might be indictments, they might not be. i'd also say here, that given how impeachment and removal go, it may be perfectly reasonable for trump to have his own gerald ford, in the s

hypotheticals. are any of you going to be there next month? i sure hope so. it is true. steve: story out there. in a bunch papers. i guess -- ainsley: we get what you're saying. you don't know. >> i will be here. jo thanks, kellyanne. brian: i agree with ari fleischer's tweet. regardless if it is true or not it is damaging. it is damaging to the country. his tweet said for this leak to come out is damaging to the country, bus the secretary of state looks diminished. for the secretary of state not to have a full strong, portfolio representing administration is problematic, especially with north korea simmering. steve: you heard kellyanne's take on verdict in kate steinle case. our next guest dedicated her life to helping families that lost loved ones to illegals. why she said americans deserve better coming up. ainsley: he was "gq" citizen of the year. colin kaepernick is given a new award by "sports illustrated." don't be fooled. why it is just a new way to attack president trump. ♪ i can breathe again! i can breathe again! vicks sinex... breathe on. ♪ but it

hypothetical. general francisco: sure. so the answer to your hypothetical is, as this court has repeatedly said, not everything that expresses a message is speech. i think when it comes to -- justice kagan: so the baker is speech, but the great chef who is like everything is perfect on the plate and it's a work of art, it is a masterpiece? general francisco: well, your honor, you have to confront that issue in every first amendment case, if you're -- justice alito: general, my colleagues i think go to more elite restaurants than i do, but my -- [laughter] general francisco: same here, your honor. justice alito: i think that if -- justice kagan: well, ollie's barbecue. justice alito: if in my dreams i could go to a michelin, i don't know, one-tenth star, i don't know, two-star restaurant, and there was a menu of wonderful dishes created by the chef with great creativity, and i said i really don't want any of these. here is the recipe. i want you to make this for me. do you think he would do that? general francisco: probably no

so if he drinks two bottles of genepi and he goes off piste and falls into a crevasse, dislocates his shoulder, breaks his knee. >> eric: why me? >> anthony: and has a concussion. this is a hypotheticalre all messed up from a concussion, what is the thing i should do? should i ski to the bottom and talk to someone? i call my cell phone? first i call the production company and tell them we need somebody else for the rest of the show. >> eric: he's such a nice guy. >> laurent: to answer your question, there is something today we use more and more on people cell phones. >> eric: on, find my phone. >> anthony: find my corpse. >> laurent: we ask the people to go back on their phone and there is a gps inside it, and it tells us exactly where to find you. >> anthony: avalanches happen here, frequently. laurent and his rescue squads are here to prevent them before they occur if possible, and if not, to find you and dig you out. allow us to demonstrate. we bury our local contact, bullet, under the snow. search dogs, hopefully, will find him before he becomes a corp-sicle and our production insurance becomes unsustainably expensive. so how common are avalanches? where are they most likely to h

picked up on an intercept he's saying that conversation actually was of substance and so if sessions, again, hypotheticallyen interviewed by the fbi during this pre-mueller period and said it was not substantive, but kislyak says it is substantive, they may find that to be disingenuous or false and so that's why i said at the outset, all of these people in the ecosystem of the mueller investigation, are implicated by the lies that mueller picked to file this information with respect to. i think everyone has to be worried about what did they say back in january before mueller got there when they weren't even contemplating what mueller might be investigating? >> michael zeldin stand by, errol lewis is here with me now. you've been with me this whole time since the news broke that michael flynn was on his way to the courthouse where he is pleading guilty to lying to the fbi and you pointed out a key fact here, which was known beforehand but this just puts a finer point on it, the russia investigation is not a hoax anymore. once the national security adviser pleads guilty to lying to the fbi as part of this in

it's a hypothetical issue. with so many other issues, i've not tried to mentally address that. this is not going to go away. >> neil: what about mentally addressing the al franken situation? >> i'll allow the ethics investigation to do their work. they started their work. al franken said they should do it and they're doing it. let's let that work through the right process and let's get a decision on it. >> neil: your colleague ted cruz seemed to think that al franken shouldn't be in the united states senate even though if you think about it, roy moore what he's been charged with has been decades old and on the surface seems to be more severe. >> it's a big deal for both. the interesting thing for me, we as a nation are talking about personal behavior mattering for your public life. it's a good thing. a couple decades ago, we weren't talking about it. it does at that time and it does right now. let's keep talking about it and keep pushing leaders and media and hollywood and congress -- >> neil: but when there's private behavior issues that came up with john conyers and he's not

so it means you could hypothetically order your latte and hot wings right from your dashboard. >> livingour best life. >>> uc berkeley has a unique with a i to help students relieve the stress of finals, llamas. students took selfies with the llama yesterday. organizers say this is a way for students to destress before finals week next week. gio caldwell has been caring for llamas for the past 35 years and says the llamas have a special connection with people. >> students from all these different cultures inherently just know i can open up, i can just love these guys and the llamas know that they can do the same thing. >> cal has brought llamas to campus for the past four years. >> look at this generation we live in. everybody is like taking selfies with the llamas, everyone has their phones out. way more people taking photos with the llama than touching the familia or commuting with the lla llama. >> that would take zero stress away from me, but good for them. if that's what works, then that's what works. >> llama ate my homework. whatever it takes. >>> all right. let's talk about the k

. >> so i want to ask you a hypothetical. this is a real hypothetical. [laughter] if judge jackson falls in love with judge griffiths yellow stockings and then she decides to marry the next strange stout smiling fellow who shows up in yellow stockings because he reminds her of judge griffiths, is judge griffiths really to blame if it doesn't work out? maybe olivia just have a type? judge griffiths can carry off the yellow much better than malvolio can. but the problem is she married a stranger. she thought she was in love with one person and thought to was marrying that person. i will tell you, this jurisdiction has had this issue before. --n lady ricky spears duchess of fresno accidentally marry that guy at that drive .hrough thing in las vegas this court permitted her to a note that union. her only defense was groups, i did it again. argument seems to be look what you made me do. [laughter] but, miss stetson he did identify himself as sebastian. said, whoucho marx are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes? >> but i think that gets back to the ros

and so this isn't a hypothetical that mike flynn has information that goes to the very heart of this investigation, we know it by the fact that mike flynn was allowed to plead guilty to a single count. >> natasha, what do you think or what's your sense of what the motivations would be for mike flynn to lie to the fbi about this? there's been a lot of kind of confusion. we knew quite some time ago that he had lied about something to the vice president of the united states. and of course that tweet kind of mud dig the waters further. but what's in it it for mike flynn to lie? >> it would have looked really bad for the trump administration to have been negotiating an easing of sanctions even before they took office in january. the obama administration kpeld 35 russian dip mots mats. they impoised harsh sanctions on russia. and for it to come out that other transition officials, the idea that they were actively working to undermine that in december before they were even in the white house, that would have made it look like, perhaps, they were paying russia back for something, perhaps the

so that is the point of slide 5. again, going back to our data just to show you that this hypothetical research-based project that we started is actually seeing that in our data so here with you those in our population who have higher well-being scores they're more likely to get their preventative screenings unless they're super high on the well-being and they start off again so those folks might have a little bit of a untouchable concern so it's that just before that highest range where they're accessing their preventative care at the highest rate. on slide 7, this is self reported days off so this is someone who is off a lot could say they're not off a lot but you say the same exact thing and as the well-being score goes down the days off goes up, right , so that is what the research said would happen and that's what we're seeing in our population. slide 8, slide 8 is a little harder to read and so there were questions at the end of the well-being assessment that asked folks of the following factors which impacted your ability to be productive at work so it wasn't actually taken in to account in to the well-being s

. >> so can i ask you a hypothetical question?questions. >> i don't think you're going to like the real one either. >> do you have the papers? >> not yet. >> oh, gosh. oh, gosh, because you know the -- the position that would put me in. >> meryl and tom, welcome back to the table. it's good to see you both. >> and congrats on your golden glob >> you saw the last segment. >> i saw the last few segments. >> it is a news program. >> but yeah, we do like to say -- we don't say the news is back for nothing, tom hanks. you know that. buzz th but this is the thing. the nominations yesterday and some of the reactions from the nominees say the first thing i did was put on a boy band song and dance. is that what the two of you did? she played an old band -- boy band song. >> which one? would that be the back street boys? >> menudo. >> oh, even better. all right. all right. man, that's going deep. >> i guess it's just the way of saying congrats to you on your golden globe nominations. i love this movie and what strikes me is it's so relevant

but then that does raise the risk then of a equities taking place in a hypothetical second term. soscenarios, these are ran come -- random by analysts, but that was one of the most things that bull rally could continue well into trump's term, including housing prospects closer to the next election. tom: let's bounce off your expertise in government, and in particular european government. i believe we have the year really without a german government. how does germany do over the next 10 years for the pessimists? do they stay together, or is there a resurgence of the new right? >> well, that's one of the scenarios we look at, this idea that the generational gap in europe gets worse, and that sort of compounds the very divisive die natural that i can we're seeing in european politics at the moment, but indeed, we do see angela merkel continuing into a fourth term, but obviously much weaker, and given the fact that you have a much weaker pro-european government in the heart of europe, that does potentially at least open up the way for these populist on the left and right to sort of stok

everyone has a better sense of what augmented reality is, so it's easier to describe a number two in the concern section we talked about hypotheticallyf you have this augmented world you could get the augmented world with the real world in ways the real world didn't want it to interact so like for example you could have an augmented world where someone who drew a swastika on the door or on someone's door and you have the right to ask them to get rid of that work what are the rules they are and pokÉmon go ended up setting up pokey stops in the holocaust museum and at the hero shema bomb memorial and so we were able to say like indeed the augmented reality world can do things the real world wishes were not happening i guess the answer in that case is you write nintendo and say please stop being a jerk's like portals should not be at these places and i think nintendo complied and it ended up being more work, but in both of those cases it was useful and made it more interesting. >> can i add there are experts in augmented reality that says pokÉmon dozen counts. the reason is pokÉmon is not-- did we define augmented reality? good. the way

so usaid oversight in the state department oversight became somewhat tenuous as congress continue to ask questions what is it you are doing, hypothetically to be able to react? and so we went to a growth time over 25 years and a believe a report will be coming out soon as to what these enterprise funds and legacies of left behind 25 years later. and as the other members from legacy fund. an actual member of the remaining american legacy fund. i see steve from the russian lines. number of people who are still part of this were involved. but the question is truly what can we do an enterprise fund version a 2.0. since context of the -- must have position to do with very effective and educated people who just didn't have financial institutions in place and banking sectors in place because with things thatna for julie kim at a number of on the board with the suns are able to jump start. usaid continued oversight of that has gone from just being involved in having 1000 question asked of you. when enterprise fund started in 2011 and 112 after the arab spring, no one really knew what the relationship is going to be. i'll let2 jim and bow talk mo

so violent? ok aidan, you have gotten out of fishing and now you are trafficking narcotics, what do you like to sell? >> this is all hypothetical. >> something good. i don't know. prof. muoz: aidan is trafficking cocaine, all right? ok claire it the fish and now they want a better time. so aidan promises them a brick of cocaine but he only gives them a half. what do you do? >> find him. prof. muoz: you don't go to campus security? why not? >> because it is illegal what we are doing. prof. muoz: you can't -- when aidan owns business and soren owns another business. but if aidan is selling drugs and his business partner does not pay him the right amount, you cannot go to court. how do you protect your rights? that is why the drug trade is always so violent. it is lawless. but there is still sort of a natural justice to it all. you are supposed to agree to pay what you agreed upon. the problem with living alone in the state of nature, that is an authority -- a state there is no authority. people do not follow the natural law. there are too many individuals like soren and claire. they do not respect the rights of others. that is wh

press well under this hypothetically if a reporter were to report on that before was officially put into parliament that in theory be a violation of the c. of the official secrets act so it has a very very broad definition here now in this case it's quite serious i mean we're talking about possibility of a fourteen year prison sentence for these two parters reporters as your reports before said they had been reporting on the crisis and were kind state now there have been reports in the local media here connecting the arrests of these two reuters journalists to human remains that were recently found in northern rakhine state so it's leading to a lot of questions as to what happened how did these people die and is there any connection to those remains and any reports that the reuters journalists might have been working on keep in mind you want officials have accused me and mark the military of ethnic cleansing the military continues to deny it so the big question here is will these remains a blow a hole in the military claims and if they do is what the reuters journalist is that what they were working on is that why they were arrested we just do not know at this time da

opinion speaking to the political actors trying to get them on the hypothetical side of the president when and if this matter comes to them so they will have the arguments in their mind. it's the job of a legal team to throw everything at the wall and hope something sticks. you see them planting the seeds for different situations, if it gets to that points, the president's sometimes allies and the republican party can fall back on. >> you can see the feud between feinstein and grassly have run the committee together, and when you see tension there, you start to see maybe the political lines are being drawn. molly, to that point, this new information about the fbi counter intelligence agent, the one that changed the language on the hillary clinton memo from grossly negligent to extremely careless, the questions being raised about him, how does it play into the political argument now? >> i spoke to allies of robert mueller who believe if anything this gives the investigation more credibility because when it came to light he did dismiss this person. there's no question it raises questions about the team around mueller. this has

wedding ceremony, not at the video is not so there is a distinction if we start to draw lines i may have different ideas with different types of expression and hypotheticals but the bottom line all the real life is this cost of the libertarian first principles to have a very wide range of challenges with conduct and businesses to you really want courts to determine what is religious or not? you have to live mitt. >> but that is what they are paid for i have seen other petitions. >> i disagree. the implications are already on the wall it the supreme court reverses colorado with copycat lawsuits. and. >> would you really make a wedding singer to express themselves that they disagree with?. >> wedding express said -- a wedding singer. >> the videographer? how the police this? that the singer could bianchi -- off key were the cake that falls. and always looks that specific performance. >> keep the law as it currently stands you don't have to police. >> but then he forced the wedding singer but he is not professional. >> but the court has to make a judge on the quality of the performance that is a separate suit i could see that coming down the road. >> so let

we reduce our levels of this is a , and hypothetical of zero mmigration, without any immigrants going forward in the next 20 years, working age decline.n will and so there's a lot of pros and immigration. one thing going forward. in terms of working age growth population, immigration will play a larger role. i want to briefly turn to a different research project that we've done and talk about the of the labor force and will advance e, i to the following slide. hat we did is we looked at the skill requirements of u.s. jobs. nd just a little bit of background. the u.s. department of labor in collection called own it, fashion look iled at the characteristics of well occupations. they survey workers and they rs that talk rate to the workers and in detailed 900 ion describe more than occupations. hat we did is looking at characterizations of social kills, interpersonal communication, and management skills. analytical called dozen job 's about a criteria that captured critical computer usage. physical skills, manual dexterity or if you had the job. machines on every job is rated on the scale. jobswe did is we looked at that have above average social ski

so the question is what if the kremlin banks bought trump's bank to get leverage over him? not a hypotheticalrting that mueller wants the records to see whether deutsch bank may have sold some of trump's mortgage or other loans to russian state development bank veb or other russian banks under u.s. and eu sanctions. basically a reference to whether putin's controlled bank would own donald trump. not the first time this issue has come up. >> i wanted to ask you, if you're familiar with deutsch bank and its $300 million loan to donald trump and his organization. >> that's not something i'm going to comment on. >> so an individual's association with the bank that has had dealings with russian money laundering, that would be something would be a red flag for a counter intelligence organization? >> that's a hypo. i don't want to answer. >> that was bill cohen. he's worked at three of the largest banks on wall street. his most recent book is why wall street matters. you're someone who understands, i don't know how you buy debt. debt doesn't seem like something most people would want to buy. what do

so you do one more than he think maybe that one more, than the other person does it. may be a question. maybe it's hypotheticalthen you go, if i ignore this. i thought the emojis were the reason for ending texting relationships. clearly i am wrong. >> dana: can you imagine if you are a justice department staffer and you have to read these. strategy to muddy the waters and question the professionalism of the fbi seems to be working. cbs poll today shows republicans think this is a political witch hunt and think it's absolutely, though there is proof of collusion somewhere and they are going to get there. basically the parties -- >> juan: that's where we sit. that's not a change. republicans don't see anything. i might add generally, the democrat side of the equation. what interests me on this is you see the president's strategy is to attack and go after robert mueller. to the point of going after the fbi now the justice department and all of this idea that he might fire robert mueller. you have people like karl rove writing this morning and others saying, don't fire the special counsel. if you do, there's going

so. as long as we accept that, it's worth $20 anywhere you go. it doesn't matter whether there's a hypothetical gold piece behind it or not. that is a 20th century understanding of economics. >> one more question. >> this for you. wonderful. but i wonder at that time when they have election of president and then maybe some officials, in that environment, do they put just other issues for the banks to control our government? is it really an issue in the election or does it all cover up and people don't know about it? >> no, it was a real issue. not, i could answer this in several different ways. was it a decisive issue? nobody can ever tell. the only thing you can tell at the end of a presidential election is that one person won. jackson himself believed that since he had -- remember the timing here, re-charter bill passed congress in early july of 1832, jackson vetoed it, then the election was in november. jackson himself took that overwhelming re-election because it was overwhelming. he stomped henry clay pretty badly. as a mandate. in a modern word. and indeed, jackson's, you said over and ov

so if you want the social media package, maybe you pay extra for that and pay extra to access netflix. all of these are hypotheticals, but in theory they would be legal and perfectly acceptable. >> supporters include industry lobing group u.s. telecom promise consumer fears are unfounded. >> consumers care that content isn't blocked. those principles existed before the current rules and they're going to exist after. >> but fcc commissioner jessica warson who is voting against the proposal disagrees. >> we know they have the technical ability to do so and the business incentive to do so and now fcc is giving them the legal green light to go ahead and explore those kind of relationships. >>> and that was jolene kent reporting. food lovers are always looking for the new spot to check out on d.c. it is at the top of the hot list these days and we are talking about the executive schiff and what is behind bresca's big boom. you were recently named rising culinary star by metropolitan wash wish. congratulations. >> thank you. >> thanks for being here. >> thank you for having us. >> how would you there. >> we are focusing

hypothetical of zero immigration. without any immigrants going forward in the next 20 years, the working age population will decline, and so there's a lot of pros and cons for immigration. one thing going forward, in terms of working age growth in the population, immigration will play a larger role. i want to briefly turn to a different research project that we've done and talk about the quality of the labor force, and for time's sake, i will advance to the following slide. what we did is we looked at the skill requirements of u.s. jobs. and just a little bit of background, the u.s. department of labor in a data collection , they, in a detailed fashion, look at the characteristics of well over 900 u.s. occupations. they survey workers, and they also have job raters that talk to the workers, and, in detailed fashion, describe more than 900 occupations. what we did is we looked at characteristics, very detailed, we looked at about a dozen that we thought captured social skills on the job. this would be interpersonal communication, writing skills, and management skills. that is what we mean by social skills. what we call anal

so -- flip the script. the republicans who put this forward talking whether there's need for net neutrality and not putting them forward, hypotheticallythe idea, think more broadly about the kinds of things we regulate and how. >> they scrap the rules but we'll have a lawsuit. and probably the reason i brought that up, big name behind the lawsuit. amazons, apples, not little joe and john x? >> haven't said they'd sue. lobbying organizations by names most consumers haven't heard of but definitely there will be a case here. and the concern is that -- twofold. first start-ups would be mostly hurt by this. youtube can afford to pay for faster access to one's pipes but the smaller video start-up neither of us have heard of can't pay the tolls to a company like comcast or at&t. the other side of this is that consumer groups say anything that impacts their ability to speak, your ability to say stuff online gives everyone standing here. so they have an argument to bring to the courts. >> i don't understand why congress isn't involved. at some point we're never going to solve this problem if the s.e.c. is basically, fcc, depends on the party a
