their job is to protect us as a nation. don't cut defense spending. that's how i want them to spend money. i want you out of corporate america. man, there are so many smart people out there that can do this on their own without the interference of the government. >> gary b. >> when chuck says we need to invest in america, that's lefty speak for the government spending more. how about going about it the other way, how about cutting taxes and giving that money back to the american public so we can have the next andrew carnegie or andrew ford who by the way didn't need manufacturing initiatives to run and bring up some of the greatest corporations we've ever had. >> jonas. >> it's worth saying the new andrew carnegie is like this kid that sold out to facebook for multi -- i won't say his family was on welfare on food stamps in this country. there are cases this leads to future growth in america. we also waste a lot of money. it's not so obvious where the waste is going in the budget, necessarily. >> okay. thanks, guys. so, he's known for dirty jobs, now

someone too old to be drafted, i agree with you. ( laughter ) what do you think that would do for us as a nationrvice changes you. i think service made me better than i would have been otherwise. i think every young american should have an opportunity to do service for the nation, not necessarily military. maybe in health care. maybe in education. and i think everyone should get the chance to spend a year at paid, national service. i think it would change how they feel about citizenship. i think it would change how we feel about each other. i think people from connecticut would get to know people from east l.a. i think we'd certainly start to mend some of the divisions in our society. >> stephen: without the draft, how would forrest gump have met buba? ( laughter ) we wouldn't have that delicious shrimp company in times square. ( laughter ) ( applause ) well, general, thank you so much for joining me. general stanley mcchrystal. general stanley mcchrystal. the book i is "my share of the rich, chewy caramel rolled up in smooth milk chocolate. all aboard. rolo. get your smooth on. you think you're

as a nation. we can install more screening devices and make people suspicious of each other but not at a cost of us as a nation. it is notve that enough just to take out guys, although sometimes we must do that. very courageous people have very carefully try to do that. dohave to win the argument you agree with that? >> i do. things i said the at the oxford union. we have to be sensitive to our actions. one of the things i think we will do, and i think we have begun this process, one of the things we will do is develop how we can adjust this issue in the homeland. to the to be sensitive fact that there are people who, while they live in this country, hate this country. they want to do harm to others who feel disassociated and disconnect it and are influenced by forces beyond our control. address thery to audience in some way or another to get at this exact issue. i want to begin thinking about this issue. we have arty started developing ideas for how we can go about the living a better job for that. >> i personally commended that thought. i want to underscore the last part of the last sentence. we

and that's helpful to us as a nation. because anybody who can do that coming from a desperate situation is probably somebody who is going to be able to make substantial contributions to our osociety. we shouldn't shun that individual. we should do everything we can to help that individual. i'm talking about nothing more than compassion. putting a name on it by calling compassion in action but it's what we have always done. we have always rooted for the underdog. >> what has been the reaction to your statement that we should massage or amend affirmative action to some degree? >> i suspect some people say no, no, no. you benefit from affirmative action it has to stay the same forever ever. of course you have people say that it's only because they it are trying to make sure that they ensure an advantage for themselves or their their constituency. what we need to start moving toward here in america is a situation where we actually treat everybody the same. liberty and justice for all. we shouldn't just let those words roll all

all that effects us as a national security issue, and let's remember, it was richard nixon who establishedtection agency and signed the clean air and water act working with a democrat congress. this is a bipartisan issue because it affects all of us. saying we need to do away with the environmental protection agency and it's overreached, epa would love it if congress would act and take action on climate change. that would be great if they set the levels of carbon, but they seem incapable of doing that, so the agency has a legal responsibility to take the action. >> yeah, i think it's clear under current administrative law they do also have the authority to deal with what you're talking about, some of the gaps when this congress is inactive on a host of issues, including this one, they have to continue to do their job, regulating, you mention bipartisanship, an important point, and secretary kerry, of course, making a similar point that this is also a national security issue. another big news item today, as we have been reporting, chris christie is out doing another town hall. you as a form

the biggest achievements probably for us for russians as a nation. the best games ever in the history of my country obviously of us that we obtain the confidence that russia is capability to deliver ambitious project and the most important decide that the gold that we generated to historical legacy for the generations to come well i have the games as you know russia has come under a lot of criticism so how do you feel about those reports i mean how the in any way overshadowed the games you know it's impossible to shadow the truth we were in the brick itself this types from the cold war and now it was broken everybody who came and witnessed this. fish and transpire in a way hospitable they really changed from the criticism to the cover and the real positive things a looking at the object of infrastructure that have been created in the city had all the games what can you tell us about how they are going to be used in diffuse the future of my native city of sochi is very bright the plan for the legacy it's all these very well. with the money allocated to

be the in compatibility of america's domestic agenda with its role as a reserve currency now how the us and its status as a debtor nation when its role as a reserve currency means that foreigners are obliged to accumulate dollar reserves i don't understand how that could work. well there are a number of issues here first of all we should understand that our status as a debtor nation supplying the international reserve currency actually makes us pretty lucky it means that people hold our dollars and we get their goodies just in exchange for these bits of paper that's not a privilege other countries enjoy so if being a debtor means getting people to hold your debt and being able to use that debt instead of having to pay that's not such a bad thing what would be bad is if everyone decided all at once that they want to cash in these dollars that would pose a challenge of course for our monetary policy but. otherwise it's not clear that this debtor status is a bad thing more broadly it could simply mean that a lot of people like investing in the u.s. and that can be a sign of health we have to distinguish between the debts t

what does this say about us as a nation and even before the law allows the state to execute a person we're willing to let the -- let it kill them bit by bit and day-by-day. i do not condone what they have done but i do not condone what we do to them and we put them in solitary for years on an and treat them as subhuman. they are better than that command a civilized society should be better not. would like to believe that the vast majority of the people in the united states would be appalled if they knew will we are doing and understood that we are torturing them for reasons that have little if anything to do with protecting other inmates and prison guards from the. no matter what else we want to call it. i would like to think that we can all agree that our constitution prohibits it. at think the subcommittee for looking at the situation, educating the public about it and employees ten answer any questions you may ask. >> i talked of the inmate that i met that said we get an extra 50 years because they told them to put somebody in this celt i would kill him and i did. it was stunning,

as a nation. we can install more screening devices and make people suspicious of each other but not at a cost of usas a nation. it is notve that enough just to take out guys, although sometimes we must do that. very courageous people have very carefully try to do that. dohave to win the argument you agree with that? >> i do. things i said the at the oxford union. we have to be sensitive to our actions. one of the things i think we will do, and i think we have begun this process, one of the things we will do is develop how we can adjust this issue in the homeland. to the to be sensitive fact that there are people who, while they live in this country, hate this country. they want to do harm to others who feel disassociated and disconnect it and are influenced by forces beyond our control. address thery to audience in some way or another to get at this exact issue. i want to begin thinking about this issue. we have arty started developing ideas for how we can go about the living a better job for that. >> i personally commended that thought. i want to underscore the last part of the last sentence. we a

i don't think help us as a nation to be a strong secure nation to put the families across the country higher energy costs where there's going to be no global impact essentially. jeff's economy gets hurt. patty murray's oyster fisheries get hurt. a lot of people that get hurt if we don't do something. it's not a situation which the economic concerns are all on one side of the equation. no matter how much we may wish that was the case. >> i think if you turn off the u.s. tomorrow, those things will continue to happen. regardless what we do in the country. we have something to say about the chinese. they are making immense progress in indeed. they are making progress so far we are in a kind of mushing tile and competitive danger of losing leadership in these new technologies to china and becoming an importer and consumer of green energy rather than the inventer and manufacturer of green energy. and if we lose that, inured to protect legacy fossil fuel. then we have lost a very, very important battle because i don't, frankly, want our country to be imporgtd the -- importing the scholar an

i can say this, we know what was told to us as a nation is not holding water. and we know that people have manipulated the facts seven weeks before an election. during the attack, i am still not comfortable with the fact that nobody could provide help for these people for over nine hours. before the attack not one person who allowed the security to deteriorate to the point that it became a death trap in benghazi, the consulate itself became a death trap, not one person has been fired. that is unacceptable. so with that, i will turn it over to my colleague, senator mccain. mr. mccain: mr. president? mr. graham: and eventually senator ayotte. the presiding officer: the senator from arizona. mr. mccain: i ask unanimous consent to engage in colloquy with the senator from south carolina and the senator from new hampshire who is here on the floor. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. mccain: i think my colleague from south carolina laid out many of the salient facts according to how they transpired and didn't transpire. and i'd like to go back a bit to last

. >> encouraging speech, that is what makes us strong as a nation, yet here comes the irs, trying to hammer of their power to try to shut down the political speech of police who disagree with them. >> joining me now, brent bazzel, before i ask you, producers, are you feeling happy? a little happy. this is so ridiculous, brent, there they go again. it is all fox news's fault, nothing to do with lois lerner who pled the fifth or anybody else at the irs or this story. >> megyn, just jotting down from memo memory, things i remember about the scandal. it is by no means the complete story. we now know there were hundreds of cases where the irs was persecuting conservative organizati organizations. so much so that the president said he was outraged. like the benghazi video, they tried to blame two agents in cincinnati and that was not true. we know there were hundreds of meeting at the white house with irs officials but we don't know that they discussed any of this. we know that it goes up at least to an obama official who was in charge of oversight who was getting reports on this. we know

nation states as well. the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, aggressive nation state intelligence efforts against us, and assertive russia, competitive china, dangerous and unpredictable mockery of, a challenging iran, lingering ethnic provisions in the balkans , perpetual conflict in the extremism in africa tamale, nigeria, central african republic and the south sudan. violent political struggles and among others ukraine, burma, thailand, and bangladesh. the specter of mass atrocities to increasing stress a burgeoning populations, the urgent demands for energy, water, and food. the increasing sophistication of transnational crime, the tragedy in magnitude of human trafficking, the insidious robber of synthetic drugs, potential for pandemic disease is occasioned by the growth of resistant bacteria. the statements for the record that we submitted provides a comprehensive review of these and other dogs and challenges. my second topic is what is considered an extraordinary time and energy for much of the past year. intel's history the. speaking about potentially the most massive and damaging threats and intelligence information in our history and the ensuing have less of revelations p

but doesn't it say something about us as a nation, a caring, compassionate nation that we're going to be there to help those families living in our towns and our state going to our churches when they're struggling to put food on the table? why was that such an inviting target for some of the house conferees? i don't understand that. there's a lot of money that can be saved in government. we don't want to waste a penny of it but let's focus primarily on those who can afford to pay and are getting a federal subsidy as opposed to those struggling to get by and are asking for a helping hand. this bill does so things i couldn't even start to describe all the different areas dealing with risk on the farm, key investments in energy and research, ag research, programs to help rural communities grow, and helping those in need. most importantly, this reauthorization gives illinois farmers certainty about farm programs and they need it, something they haven't had for the last three years. i'm going to support this bill. i wish that we'd been able to preserve that provision that senator coburn an

one, for us as a nation to become more race-conscience and more difference-conscience is actually a goodlebrate those differences, engage them, be aware and become more culturally competent about them. the real problem with justice thomas' comments, they're talking about these sort of individual racial interactions like somebody doesn't like me because i'm this or somebody doesn't like me because i'm black. that is not what racism is about. it's the systemic issues. i care whether people don't like me prevents me from getting a job or means i end up in the criminal justice system more regularly. and so i think the institutional things are what we need to stay focused on. the individual things need to be worked out but not as important as institutional racism. >> joe, i know that you met with clarence thomas a few times. what is your take on this and how this plays into his ideology. >> well, i think justice thomas is sincere in terms of what he is saying. i think he is talking about what he knows from his own experience and all of our experiences are different. i would disagree on a numb

they are also competing in a where increasingly, their efforts to use cyber security or national security as a market access barrier, whether multilevel protection scheme in china or some of the problems we had around preferential market access in india. having this framework that is built on global standards that are consensus based and developed through multi-stakeholder processes is helpful for those international companies as well. clicks -- >> what would be the process to internationalize the framework, or at least give it more encouragement to be used internationally? clicks what we did in this case is something modeled after the approach that we did with the smart grid standard a few years back. we started with the standard that the framework process was immediate international. we invited international participation. i was meeting with delegations around the world. tomade a deliberate effort look at international standards as one of the building blocks of the framework, and where it asks companies to bring those forward. in some sense, we have been international from the beginning. t

it's what makes us strong as a nation. yet here comes the i.r.s. trying to shut down, use the heavy hammer of their power to try to shut down political speech of people who disagree with them. it's not going to work, mr. speaker. we're not going to stand for it. here in this house. i commend my colleague for bringing the legislation which i'm proud to co-sponsor but over 94,000 americans have already weighed in on this as well, signing letters and inputting public comment, including 70 members of the republican study committee that chimed in. we're not going to stand for this. this will be a bipartisan vote in support of this legislation to stop the abuse of the i.r.s. and i appreciate the time, mr. speaker, and yield back the balance of my time. the speaker: the gentleman's time has expired, the gentleman from louisiana reserves. the gentleman from new york. mr. crowley: i know my colleagues don't want to talk about their radical republican tax bill. it's an actual bill on the plern tax paying public. it's going to tax social security, eliminate ta

ted nugent not only speaks for texas, he speaks to those whoed a here to the second amendment issue. they'll use this as a foil nationally some implications. >> it also brings up the question, what are you responsible for as a candidate? >> right. you were saying they happened to be campaigning together. that was abbott's choice. right? he tied himself to knew gept and he didn't i think strongly and forcefully enough repudiate his comments and i think he could have done that and still had a strong position. i think he's had had a very good couple of months here, largely because davis is not a particularly strong candidate. >> unlike john mccain who in a way when the woman said, i am terrified of obama because i think he is an arab," and he immediately denounced it at that event. greg abbott stool sid silent. >> ted nugent's comments were inappropriate, but will there be any fallout in the lone star state? i doubt. >> he's probably lucky he was in texas. let me ask you about chris christ christie. had a town hall. >> i was there. >> tell me. >> chris christie is clearly under fire with this the bridge episo episode. 90 mi

as pharaoh. gold was used liberally in the tombs of egypt. as a wealthy nation, she could afford the use of the metal, but, more than that, gold was used in the belief that its immutability could be transferred to the deceased. this shrine, also found in the antechamber, is wood covered with a layer of gesso and then overlaid withheetold. the scenes on its sides are hily reminiscent akhenaten's period, with wa family groupings which convey aense of true emotion rarely evident in the more ylized art of other periods. between two of the animal-form beds was found a cache of abaster vases. almost all of them had had their contents of unguents removed by thieves. precious oils must have been extremely valuable in tutankhamun's time, inasmuch as the tomb robbers choose them over many other objects in the tomb. this vase is impressive for its carving, but it is also interesting for its symbolic reference to the unification of egypt. at one time, ept was two countries: the delta area called lower egypt and the southern region called upper egypt. when the two countries

"america tonight"'s correspondent sarah hoye brings us up to date. >> as a nation waited for a verdict in the so-called loud music trial the jury hit a wall in the deliberations and were sent back to their hotel for the evening. mike dunn was indicted in 2012 for murder after fatally shooting 17-year-old jordan davis during a dispute over loud music. dunn and his fiancee stopped at a gas station in central florida where davis and his friends were parked in an suv. the jury heard from the fiancee. >> what did the defendant say? >> i hate that music. >> i hate that music. i heard pop pop pop. >> you got back in the passenger side of the car. did you see a firearm at that point in time? >> yes, michael was putting it into the glove box. >> throughout deliberations, jurors asked to watch that surveillance video twice. >> and with two hands -- >> during closing argument, assistant state attorney john guy told jurors the case wasn't about self defense. it is rather the case of dunn's self-denial. >> jordan davis didn't have a weapon, he had a big mouth and that defendant wasn't going to stan

hospitals will do better as they reduce the repeated readmissions that those folks poorly treated and uncovered with health care would be racking up for us to cover. as a natione have seen that sharply escalating cost of health care is being brought down. is it going in the right direction yet? no. but it's no longer that hockey stick that was eating up our productivity and ability to create a stronger middle class so we can grow our economy. >> yes, sir. >> i think the only way we solve the health care problem in america is to get people to take ownership of their own health. my previous job as president of a medical school, we did health risk assessments on faculty, staff and students. we have gone through a battle to get our waiver for the iowa health and wellness plan. we feel the only way is to get individuals, communities, businesses, everybody on board -- it's not using tobacco products, it's focusing on exercise and nutrition and all those kinds of things, but also if you do a health risk assessment, no your own risk factors and risk -- work to reduce them. there has to be incentive to do that, and that's what we're trying to do for everybody. if we d

as a fat cat. a dare dellive well worth his nice book billions. to patriot national bank, chairman, michael, you are used stuff. >> yeah. neil: does it bother you? >> it does, because i think that people and executive position should be paid for a performance, if you make money and perform for your shareholders and investors, you should be compensated but the tech giants in silicon valley seem to be unscathed and don't come under scrutiny that wall street seems to. neil: their worth is billions of times more, literally for a lot of them, there no comparison about you're worth and overall pay packages. >> looking at excess compensation for executive out of silicon valley they are higher than wall street firms. neil: you know what i hear from tech ceos every time, this subject comes up, we've never embarrassed u.s. government or cost u.s. taxpayer. we would not take advantage of bailouts of u.s., but that bankers will always have that pallcast over them. >> the lifeline of tech companies start on wall street. we are the lifeline to developing them and raising capital, gets that structure in place to grow.

senator kerry, as a small son of a lobsterman from the south shore of boston never i thought i would be able to come and lead us in prayer as a nationthank each of you for being here. i know many of you travel to be here. but what a testimony of the fabric of our country that we're a praying nation and we rely upon god and his good land -- hand upon the united states. i know security and other challenges might have made it hard but we get the opportunity to put away the distractions of the world and unite our hearts and spirits as we pray for our great nation and pray for our leaders. in the military leadership by example is a big deal and i can think of no finer example than for our commander in chief to be here each year to again demonstrate his reliance on god.
