federal/state. how about a case that's been tried in one system, then is tried in the other system and the identical conduct is followed. does this conclusion operate? >> are you talking criminal law? or civil law? >> i'm talking about criminal lauchlt. >> snow criminal law, your honor, there is no non-mutual collateral estoppel. the court said as much in standoffer. federal and state crimes are not the same offense under the double jeopardy clause. >> don't all your problems go away if you are the first to file, if you win the race to the courthouse, and i would assume the same is true with the states, so what's most likely is that you and the states are going to sit down and develop a way of coordinating which cases you're going to file in first and which ones they're going to file in first. >> your honor, i'm not sure that's true because i'm not sure that we're always going to cooperate. i think the history of this nation has shown that the federal government and states do not always see eye-to-e

the export narcotics to the united states. we export drugs -- partly, we export guns and laundered money back into these cartels. we wonder why they are so powerful? according to the latest dea drug threat assessment, the amount of bulk cash seized has been steadily decreasing over the last eight years. dea report quote, large amounts of cash continue to be interdicted along major highway corridors with the cash typically concealed and hidden in vehicle compartment or among legitimate cargo. again, there would be strong bipartisan support in congress for more resources for outbound inspections if only the administration put as much priority on this effort as they do on a wall. there is more that congress can do. in 2013 when democrats controlled the senate we passed bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform. do you know how much was included in that bill for border security funding? $40 billion, and over 60 senators senators voted for it. no lack of will it comes to border security. sadly, republican leaders in the house ref

or some other transparency of government. >> i agree there is no deep state in the united states. i think there is an fbi, a cia, and nsa, now there's a director of national intelligence, and there is a history of some agencies. odni isn't recent enough so there's less history of them violating the law. violating civil liberties, but there's also a very strong and noble record of those abuses having been brought to light, changing having been made, and i used to work in eastern europe right after the fall of the wall, when one of the tasks that the reformers wanted to do was set up a legal structure to bring under control what was the deep state in those communist countries. the kgb and associated secret police. and what i used to say was, that in the united states we don't have a system where we can be sure that the intelligence agencies will not violate the law, but we do have a system where it is pretty likely that pretty soon those violations will come to light. and that's i think different. one of the key differences. and the other thing i would say is that when you ask the q

they were, by law, slave states. they reinstated slavery when they went into indian territory, and they fought with the confederacy. one of the goals of the museum was to show indians as human, as capable of all the good and evil and with any other kinds of people do. we have an image of the house. greenwood leflore. a native leader who had hundreds of enslaved persons, and his mansion was based on one by napoleon in france. it is complicated and this is something the museum is taking on, to show the complexity of some of this history. the cotton kingdom's success of course, building it came at an extraordinarily high cost. first of all the enslavement of millions of human beings. the disposition of native americans. but even that wealth, even accessibility to the country in the cotton kingdom, resulted in the civil war. the worst war in american history. the end result of this is something that the country is still coming to terms with. what we hope is in this exhibition, to show there is an argument to say that ind

senators represent their state and not surprisingly, they often reflect their state's heritage, traditions, and values. the people of missouri rightly prize their reputation as independent, straightforward, and trustworthy, qualities that define my friend senator claire mccaskill. to that i would add another quality that defines this accomplished leader from the show me state. like her inspiration in public service, president harry truman, senator mccaskill is feisty. in her two terms in the senate, senator mccaskill has demonstrate her belief that no party holds a monopoly on good ideas. it has been such a pleasure to work with her across the aisle on so many issues. she was always the best of partners, strong, strategic, determined, and she got a lot done. an issue that brought us together as leaders of the senate aging committee was the extensive bipartisan investigation we launched in 2015 into the extreme spikes in the prices of many prescription drugs. the findings of our investigation were appalling, and the reform legislation that we coauthored is producing results and spurring app

almost every state. let's go to the list of the states. almost every state here are the states allowing some form of marijuana. alabama, alaska, arizona, arkansas, california, colorado, connecticut, delaware, florida. it goes on and on. it's easier to say the three states that have not allowed it. idaho, nebraska, and south dakota. the only three states that have not. recent polling from quinnipiac shows more than 60% of the american people support legalized marijuana and 93% support medical marijuana. 93% support medical marijuana. the american people have made up their minds. this is happening. let's be clear. this isn't just happening in blue states like california or massachusetts or purple states like colorado. it's happening in bold, deep red states like utah, oklahoma, and west virginia and it's happening in swing states like florida, ohio, pennsylvania, michigan, and missouri. the bedrock principle of our government expressed in the declaration of independence is that governments derive their just now we ares from the consent of th

that was to help states and communities reach goals, national education goals state by state, community by community. so we had nebraska 2000, and nashville 2000 as democrats and republicans sought to do that. the importance of it was that president george herbert walker bush understood that to have lasting reform in education, it has to be owned by the state. it has to be owned by the community. we saw that on the recent exercise of common core standards. it was developed by the governors. it was moving through the country state by state by state, and then when the federal government mandated it in effect, there was a great rebellion because there wasn't anybody buying it. the same with teacher evaluation. i led a fight to evaluate tennessee teachers. that was the hardest fight i was ever involved in. but we did it. and thousands of teachers went up the career ladder. when you order it in washington, they don't buy into it and president bush understood that. so with his national education goals, his volunteer in national standards, his volunteer in national tests, they were all volunta

fishing in state waters. let's keep in mind, there's no thing -- there's nothing that distinguishes state waters and federal waters. when you get outside the seaward boundaries of states generally three miles in most states, it's indistinguishable, the species go back and forth, but the management styles have fundamentally changed in my home state of louisiana, our recreational fishers have determined they will impose a fee on themselves to improve the collection of data, to improve the science, to better inform our fishery management decisions. the federal government has the opportunity to do the same thing and some cases to better involve states to ensure the complementary nature of fisheries management in the gulf of mexico, in the atlantic, the pacific, and alaska and in other areas. this bill will allow the recreational fishery management council to manage recreational fisheries more successfully based on public access without hard quotas or t.a.c.'s. ultimately, these changes will help to avoid sudden c

does state b. that, of course, is the fact pattern of heath v. alabama. under petitioner's view, state a would not be able to vindicate its interest in that sterner prosecution, if state b were to go first. that could -- that situation could also play out if a state has a sterner penalty for a particular act than does the federal government. this court, of course, saw that in the screws case, where the state penalty was much stronger than the federal penalty. we also see that in, for example, the area of robbery. under federal law a robbery of a u.s. letter carrier carrying u.s. mail is punishable by up to 10 years. in texas, however, robbery is punishable by up to 20 years. again, under petitioner's view, texas would not be able to vindicate -- justice kagan: i think what your friends on the other side might say to that is something along the lines of, well, it's one thing to pick the higher penalty and, you know, let the state or the government with the higher penalty go forward. the problem with

and the state distributes that to the population. so, some people have talked about social ownership of the robots so tom is collectively owned by society and that the wealth generated from those robots goes into a sovereign wealth fund, and the sawrve aren't wealth fund gets distributed. which is a more egalitarian way of looking at it than ubi. they call themselves techno socialists and there are means all over the internet about fully automated space -- whatever socialism. so i do think that technology i think part of the reason that people are so open-minded to any kind of political solution in this historical moment is the threat and the fear of the technological on slot coming aour way and what's going to happen when we have a bunch of surplus community who don't have opportunities for employment. that's going to be soon, right? so i do think that that's -- again is -- i say this at the end of the book i do think the particular historical contingency and circumstances we find ourselves in right now requires us to be really open

individual states. jonathan: do you think that politicians like bill clinton bear some of the blame for the current crisis by overselling the benefits of trade or at least not being completely honest about what some of the downsize would be? and then not doing enough work to buffer the public from the inevitable disorienting shifts that are occurred? stewart: if i might pick that up. they bear a bit, you know, i think on the one hand, bill clinton was somebody who had enormous empathy and communicated that empathy and had sort of a populist or a popular common man sort of ability to communicate with people but i think there was an element of sort of go, go, globalization that sort of touch o'ed globalization -- turboed globalization that took hold. capital has done very well and i think to some degree i'm in favor of openness but i feel like -- at least in some cases when it came to labor and employment and ensuring that there's a lot of talk about skills and retraining and trade adjustment assistance a

and turning to the headlines now on al-jazeera the united states is announced criminal charges against two who allegedly worked for the chinese government the justice department is accusing them of waging a cyber campaign that focused on the large scale theft of commercial intellectual property and alleges it allegedly targeted entities across the u.s. europe and asia china's goal simply put is to replace the u.s. as the world's leading superpower and they're using illegal methods to get there they're using an expanding set of nontraditional and illegal methods china's state sponsored actors are the most active perpetrators of economic espionage against us in short to strengthen themselves and to weaken the united states and while we welcome fair competition we cannot and will not tolerate illegal hacking stealing or cheating in other news the presidential election in democratic republic of congo has been delayed till december thirtieth the announcement was made earlier by the electoral commission president the vote had been scheduled for sunday but the ebola outbreak and a fire that d

states doesn't wish to really move the i said lee she. actually puts all the conditions that it needs to have a fundamental change in the policy of syria and that fundamental change i think. i don't think it's possible at this point nor did they would have to they would have to take what's there on the table mr mr james jeffrey thing he's also in his words between the lines you can see a threat he's saying that the assad regime did not win the war yet well. what does he mean by that does he mean that the united states is ready to reengage by supporting terrorist organizations and by creating chaos in syria and trying again on this failed and destructive kind of a move towards i'm not sure but he's not in a position to make any conditions. let's turn attention to costa rica where several hundred exile nicaraguans have protested against their country's president. the protesters are demanding that ortega start the repression of media and civil rights since the nicaraguans have fled to costa rica since the outbreak of anti-government protests

state laws and regulations typically require that providers be licensed in the state where the patient is located, thus restricting the reach of telehealth across state lines. we would like to loosen these restrictions so telehealth can better meet patient needs. finally and perhaps the most egregious of all certificate of need laws that require healthcare providers to obtain permission from estate or state license agency or existing providers in order to construct new healthcare facilities, expand existing ones or offer certain healthcare systems. the evidence to date exist that these are costly barriers for entry or cost providers that don't control costs or improve healthcare quality. evidence suggests that greater competition incentivized providers to become more efficient. recent work shows that hospitals faced with a more competitive environment have better management practices. consistent with this evidence, repealing or narrowing an laws can reduce the cost of con laws. based on the evidence and their enforcement experience the two federal antitrust agencies, the ftc and the an

the house would vote by states. each state having one vote. the rational for that was the same as for the electoral college. it was to prevent the larger states from dominating the elections, a simple majority in the house would then provide the victor. the physical process of the voting and how it was achieved, how it was accounted, that's kind of a story for another day. what is about earth nent -- pertinent about today are the 1824 election results. there were simply too many candidates. by the time they got to the election in the fall, there were four, secretary of state. john quincy adams of massachusetts. secretary of the treasury, william h crawford of georgia. speaker of the house, henry clay of kentucky, and senator andrew jackson of tennessee. the abundance of candidates assured that no one was going to receive a majority in the electoral college and that was apparent by the late fall of 1824. accordingly, the 12th amendment kicked in. the top three were jackson, adams and crawford. these would be the candidates before the house of r

fund, or eraf, and that was done in a time of state budget crisis or state budget woes. and what happened there was the state required counties to shift money into eraf, this new creation, and eraf allowed the state to reduce its payments to minimum funding guarantees for school districts. so it was a way to manage their problems, their fiscal issues at the state level, and it's been with us ever since, since 1992, and we'll explain more about how eraf works in a moment. but in the current day of each dollar property taxes, about two thirds goes to the city, about 8% comes to sfusd, about 1.5% to city college and a small portion to other entities, and then 25% is shifted into what's call this educational revenue augmentation fund, eraf. so this is a really important chart about what's happening now with eraf. so if you look on the left-hand column of this stacked bar chart, this shows what a typical relationship is like in -- in terms of how the funds flow to education or to other purposes. so -- and this has been true for the city and county of san francisco and sfusd a

between united states and china. to carry on for a long time yeah absolutely thank you for the analysis great as always international independent china specialist on drew a long. well though it was mostly serious business at the summit as usual there were a few lifer moments too and even then the cation all heck up along the way. everything was scheduled down to the last minute but when we got direction now we understood president macron was already getting into he's car. passing. to some of the week's other headline news nod last sunday russian border patrol sees three ukrainian ships near the crimean peninsula moscow accuses the ships of violating its territorial waters the incident brought russia and ukraine close to full blown conflict and stirred international concern. contrary to the un convention on russian border ships carried out a frankly aggressive action against the vessels of the navy. three ukrainian patrol boats say the russians were approaching russian territorial waters which they entered they were a

and those who have briefed him on this matter his secretary of state my pump a.o. has said that this will not be the final word in the us response to this action secretary maddest secretary of defense has said that any type of backing away or minimizing of our relationship with saudi arabia that would embolden iran would be disastrous for the national security the united states and so i think the president's trying to balance the facts that he's receiving from his advisors with the morality that we know as united states americans we want to be the shining city on the hill we have to also develop some type of a measured response that does not permit this to happen again all right figured coming to you now what is what has happened to members of congress in the u.s. why of they all suddenly around this particular moment galvanized and decided that it's time to cool out mohammed bin sound man they're not going to put up with this particular lead the likes of of lindsey graham who as we know is a real close ally of president trump and his the two has been a great suppo

and again, i would be remiss if i didn't state how disappointed i am in that the state department isre and can't help answer or validate some questions that have arisen because of the testimony that we have heard here today. for example, the last time our staff and i met with miss littleton, the department of state was there and we talked about a number of different approaches that they might try to execute. to make these things happen a little bit more efficiently. they promised to update us and they did in fact contact this and tell us that the local law enforcement had gone to the children's school to execute an order and they plan actually to take the kids into possession and return them to you. but can you just imagine on that particular day, the kidnapper didn't let the children go to school? and he refiled an appeal of every other finding. so i think the political pressure definitely needs to be applied at a higher level as mentioned here. when we interface with the local authorities, there is obviously more than a little bit of corruption and they are not on our side like so

court state employees. but he knows that garcia is still good law. the fair labor standards act is still good law. and i'm sure the states will violate it. [laughter] >> i want to talk about boy umedian. we were on a panel in march when it came out. we were all asked what we thought it would come out. we all said let's ask justice kennedy. then i suggested that he would take a very anti-formalist, functionalist approach and rule against the executive branch. but in fact, isn't it true that symbolic.t is with the court did in that case is it said that prisoners at guantanamo bay have more rights than the congress had given them to appeal to the d.c. circuit. but they didn't spell out what that was. not a burden of proof. not in how they will establish their innocence or not innocent. and then the d.c. court of reclaim anda doesn't give anybody claims. and he gets worse. the supreme court never takes certain again on any case. judges, you need to take responsibility for these cases. is it judicial supremacy o

eastern libya is controlled by the gulf states think of what should be the form of the new libyan state federalist sent proponents of centralized government monarchists and islamists are vying to shape the constitution in their own image as national minorities including berber and peoples are fighting for their rights. alliances are being forged behind the scenes but prospects for peace seem more distant than ever what happened to the revolution of two thousand and eleven and its promises. and. what lies behind the failures of the last seventy years. after the plenary session of those saddam tone decides he wants to talk to ordinary libyans to find out more about what went wrong. in benghazi the protests began on the seventeenth of february two thousand and eleven . i shout no i did that i mean it was about russia but i had methadone as you know back then we had something completely different in mind to what it. did we start the revolution with the aim of seeing people die. because as you know about that and witnessing the destruction of our cities it was up to. one of many. doesn't it

and the state of texas. anti-israel any policy is an anti-texas policy. israel ists of considered to be un-texan. and texas is not going to do business with any company that boycotts israel. amy: that is texas governor greg abbott speaking about the legislation a year ago. bahia amawi, are you an active member of the bds movement? >> i am not an active member of bds at all. for just, personally myself, if i'm aware of our product that is supporting israel or is made in the country, then i just have her personal -- i make a personal choice to avoid it because i don't want to support their ongoing occupation and aggression and inhumane treatment of the palestinians. it is making me complicit with the whole occupation. i did not go -- through and find a list of things. i just happen to know about it or if somehow i found out, then i just avoid it. other than that, i'm not really an active member. juan: what has been the reaction of your fellow employees at the school were other teachers as the results of what h

we saw the tpp proceed without the united states. we saw pakistan pushback on long-term china's strategy of developing influence through investment. this was not done at the united states' instigation. other nations are constraining us a we don't have blocs. what do i suggest instead of a new cold war? i say u.s.-china relations. balanced, it seems to me that it is still a very useful phrase and it does not tie us into any framework. the last part of your question was are we heading there. could we get there? comingre worrisome signs from both capitals, one of which we saw just last week when the american administration announced a new africa policy and sit of framing it in terms of american interests vis-a-vis african nations or the needs of africa, it was phrased in terms of countering china in africa. i think that this was bad africa policy and it implies a desire to set up blocks. we also do see in chinese diplomacy a tendency to want to spread chinese influence which is counter to international best practices, a desire to have n

the way to go even if the state were to take strong action against human rights activists. really harsh sanctions wouldn't be effective because then the government just says see the sanctions hit all russian citizens and we all suffer as a result. we striving. russians who fear injustice in their own courts can still turn to the council of europe and the european court of human rights. these avenues are an important last resort for rights activists. i am in favor of russia remaining a member of the council of europe this is important for russian citizens but also important for the citizens of european states exclusion could have negative consequences other political systems could follow this example. for human rights activists the situation remains bleak international rights organizations have accused the kremlin and its secret service of human rights violations but the west's condemnation appears to have made little impact. the bundesliga match day fifteen is in the books let's take a look at all that results frank age level and life dominated minds dortmund lehmann got up

and of specially of the united states now when the united states started to withdraw from the scene in syria you can we were able to see there is no very common international politics where somebody went out of the door somebody some others would come in the village and we saw now it's the ceasefire and it's organized but turkey and russia europe doesn't play any role should that change should europe have more i think europe should step up in international affairs therefore it's a new what in syria would you first first of all we should support the cease fire and of course i think at the end of the day everybody wants to see europe as part of the re construction process of syria the next step is that we should have under the u.n. umbrella in geneva a constitutional reform i'm very happy that the turks and others tried to hand over the process to the united nations and then europe can play a role in this process. it has to be under the umbrella of the united nations i think that's the right way to do it what about a role in the middle east peace process do you really believe that the ne
