united continental stock is up 1,470% since then.one of the top 15 performers in the s&p 500 since that moment, leaving the rest of the airline industry in the dust. only delta even comes close, up 1,064% over the same period. now, it's true over just the past five years, united continental is up 152%. it's still pretty darned good return, but not as good as delta, jetblue, or southwest over that period. that means the activists are technically correct. it's the worst performer in the industry over the last five years. but to me, if we were talking about stocks, i wouldn't regard that as cherry picking. since united continental is test be performer over the last seven years. and it's been pretty consistently outperformed both the dow transports and the s&p 500 in every time frame longer than the past 12 months, where the whole industry has, indeed, struggled. and compared to the rest of the industry, over the last two years, united continental has been better than some and worse than others. so i'm not buying this first charge of cle

we get to pick which refugees are special interests to the united states and bring them to the united states. the asylum program allows people who are already here to apply for asylum and there's no numerical limit on asylum. so if you can claim that you're a refugee and you're already here under our law and international law, we cannot return you to your home country. you qualify for discretionary asylum status in the united states, which can put you on a path to a green card and eventually becoming a u.s. citizen along with everybody else. no numerical limit. so it's very tempting, i think, given the fact that you may be a refugee in a displaced person camp in jordan or turkey and if the u.s. doesn't pick you, you're kind of stuck there. but if you can get yourself into the united states or at the border and make the claim, then you're going to get processed sooner or later. and i think that is a great temp tak temptation. and i think the administration frankly is trying to balance expectations and is deliberately, i think, trying to deter people by imposing some consequences on the

[applause] the people ask why it because that is not how you make a deal. they come to a table as they negotiate. each side must give up something those values that we have to do something in exchange for something that is required. that is what a deal is. something when we oppose it we bring together a group of people to come up with something that will not happen with the united nations. very important to only furthered delegitimatize israel it is a catastrophe and a disaster and it will not happen.

in the first world war of dough buoys came from all parts of the united states, because to the first world war is the first time that we conscript a mass army from the very beginning of a conflict. so we'd also had drafts before in the past but they had come in the middle of a conflict, and the civil war when voluntary lenment dropped off. the first world war, we enact the draft right from the very beginning, a short window of opportunity to volunteer, and the army, and that closes off, and so what that means is 72% of the armis going to be conscripted and they have to spread the period out equally throughout the united states. every state has a quota, and the idea this really is a men's army that represents the american population. so there were a few reasons america decided to race the army different any in the first world war. the first reason is they expected there to be large casualties. america enters the war in 1917, so the war has been going on for two and a half years, so they understand and in fact they're going to need millions of men, and they're worried that after the fi
