senator dianne feinstein took to the senate floor on tuesday to accuse the cia of accessing computers used senate staff. >> i have grave concerns the cia search banwell violated the separation of powers printable's embodied in the united states thetitution, including speech and debate clause. it may have undermined the constitutional framework essential to effective congressional oversight of intelligence activities or any other government function. i have asked for an apology and a recognition that this cia search of computers used by its oversight committee was inappropriate. i have received neither. >> feinstein also accused the cia secretly removing more than 900 documents from computers used by the senate intelligence committee, and said it tried to intimidate congressional investigators by requesting an fbi inquiry of their conduct. at a public event nearby in washington, cia director john brennan rejected the allegations. >> as far as the allegations of cia hacking into the senate computers, nothing could be further from the truth. we would not do that. that is just beyond the scope

us. senator jilly brand came close to getting what she needed for her bill. as we heard, for two decades every secretary of defence said there's zero tolerance for scult. is there any doubt that the system is broken. >> there's no doubt. the sad reality is we as a nation sat by and let the infers members bear the brunt of this judicial system. everyone has been on notice that the system is broking. >> the senator said she was disappointed by the lack of support from the white house. would that have helped? >> it would have helped. >> obviously the president is the commander in chief. he should have the same impatience and unwillingness to tolerate more rapes or sexuality assaults. we know it's time for a change your, there has to be reform. her main change, the main demonstrate of her bill was to take the prosecution of sexual assault cases outside the chain of military command, that if it stayed as it is now, people cases. >> it's an important structural reform. the by it is set up you have the people in charge, the commanders serving as judges, in an ajudic

us. >> senator markey, let's talk about the folks across the eye aisle who are not participating i read lryan lidza's piece, whih you were involved in the waxman-markey and the efforts in the senate. at that point, this is only a couple of years ago, lindsey graham was saying that carbon emissions were not good for the planet. john mccain was thinking of participating in reform. one gets the sense that these sort of elder republicans -- i don't mean in terms of age but people who have been in legislation and have seen how far we've come in terms of this debate and how far we've gone back, they know it's real, and yet the public amnesia would seem to verge on the criminal, given their intraction and complete blinders, publicly, rhetorically, on the issue. do you ever have private conversations with senators mccain and graham and say, you were at the table once, can't we get you back? >> the way i view this issue is that climate science is something that's undeniable but not inevitable. you are right, there are people on the republican side of the aisle who do agree with the science. and

senate. infiltrating computers used by the senate intelligence committee. >> i have grave concerns that the cia's search may well have violated the separation of powers principles. >> reporter: the fireworks stem from a senate investigation into the cia's secret interrogation techniques used after 9/11. senate staffers were invited into an undisclosed cia office to review thousands of documents. it was there, senator feinstein says, the cia secretly searched her staff's computers, removing documents. she says nearly 1,000 pages went missing. cia director john brennan denied the charges. >> nothing could be further from the truth. we wouldn't do that. >> reporter: the white house says it's taking the allegations seriously. but has confidence in brennan. peter earnest, a cia officer for more than three decades, says he's never seen such a standoff. >> the toing and froing and back and forth. i recall nothing like this. >> reporter: one senator saying, tonight, this is nixon stuff. jeff zeleny, abc news, the capitol. >>> next in the news tonight, federal investigators say they were on the trail of w

senator dianne feinstein says the agency improperly searched computers used by senate investigators who used torture during terror interrogations. >>> and we got a preview of what congressional campaigns might look like this fall when midterm elections are held. republican david jolly won a special election for florida's 13th district. the seat was vacated when veteran congressman bill young died in october. more than $11 million was spent on the race, and the keys issue during the campaign was president obama's health care law. >>> the white house says nearly a million people signed up last month, but the six-month enrollment ends march 31st, and the administrations still far short of its goal of having 7 million people covered, and that's why on tuesday president obama hoped his message to get uninsured americans to sign up would go viral. >> i have to know. what is it like to be the last black president? >>. >> seriouslily? what is it like to be the last time to ever talk to a president? >> president obama enlisted the help of comedian miami zach galifianakis on the website "funny or

senator graham joins us. >> thank you. >> good evening, sir. so, you obviously don't agree with anything that -- how the president is handling his foreign policy? >> no. it's falling apart. you tell putin better not give putin asylum even before you agree with snowden or not. there will be consequences, nothing happens. we will find the people who killed our four folks in libya. we are going to bring them to justice. 18 months later, nothing happens. >> do we know where they're by the way. >> oh, one of them -- the lead suspect has been interviewed by the cnn for sure and one british newspaper. yes, if cnn can find them why can't we find them? >> are we trying to find them? >> i am completely upset with the investigation. i think the obama administration knows where they are at but not doing anything about them. >> maybe they don't want these people come to light and know it was terrorism. you have four dead americans. first ambassador killed in 33 years. the president made all these speeches about we are going to bring them to justice. we know

and then the conclusion, let me say where i started, we're asking senators to join us in a debate about the childcare and development block grant. what we hope senators will do is come to the floor with their ideas about it. we know of a number of senators who have amendments on both sides of the aisle. what we're saying to those senators is if you have an amendment that's related to our bill, you'll have a chance to talk about it and you'll have a chance for it to be voted on and perhaps accepted by the full senate and then hopefully this bill will go to the house and become a law. we know that that hasn't been the story as often as it should be in the senate but we'd like to see that happen more often. it requires a little bit of restraint on the part of each of us as senators. we can't all exercise all of our rights all the time and get anything done. it requires some trust and restraint on the part of our leader, senator reid, senator mcconnell, we appreciate them turning the management of the bill over to senator mikulski and senator burr with senator harkin and i in support of the

us. senator do you ever take off your political hat and think about people as human beings, not republicans like the 17-year-old with malformations on her brain about to have her 90th surgery who lost insurance because of you? now she's a liar too? her mom now demanding that you put your money where your mouth is and apologize to her and the american people. harry, time to take off those rose colored glasses and start looking at people as human beings and not as your political enemies. >>> with me now practicing fen and former senior policy adviser to the centers for medicare and medicaid services, dr. scott gottlieb and authur of beating obama care, betty. are these stories add made up? >> no. there are a lot of dislocations in the market where people are finding they thought they were insured and they're not. or they got insurance throuobam and they can't get to the doctors they need to. >> let's take a listen to something else that harry reid said. >> for years jean was locked into her job as a schoolteacher because she, brett and their two teenage children needed guaranteed health insur

us. senator feinstein has taken the helm on this issue and you've been heavily involved as well.rather cryptic issue. >> does the federal computer fraud and abuse act apply to the cia? it seems to me that's a yes or no question. >> i would have to look into what that actually calls for and it's applicability to the authorities. >> it seems clear that you were responding to this. brennan responded that the letter does not, quote, prohibit investigative protective or intelligence activity of an intelligence agency. feinstein made it clear that she thinks the cia may have violated the constitution. what do you think? >> mr. brennan did also say that in fact the computer fraud law does apply to them and the reality is that those computers, in effect, belong to the cia but were reserved exclusively for the committee's youth and what this goes to, the fundamental question here is whether the congress of the united states is going to be able to do effective oversight over the intelligence apparatus and again and again, the intelligence leadership has in effect thwarted the ability of co

gorbachev, tear down this wall. >>> all right, joining us, senator rand paul, your reactions, big dramatictraw poll victory two years in a row by a very significant margin. what is your reaction? >> well, you know, i would always rather get first than second, somebody asked me over the weekend, do you think the yimportant? i said only if you get first, not second. you have been there, there are thousands of young kids there. it is really exciting. and you doi.s:y feel all the en of the college kids and some a little older than college. >> what do you think about the message, your dadçc,]em did well at cpac and the straw$ polls, what do you think it is about the message of appealing to the younger cpac crowd? >> well, if you talk to young kids, mine included, they're on and they're like dad, i'm in the basement. sometimes they don't understand how the government would be able to collect their phone records without a warrant or without a suspicion. so they're very in tune to the nsa scandal. >> you really have taken on a lot of issues. and one"ç is 2fu outreach. the second one is the nsa, t

senate. my opponents may say that we already had our chance to impact this policy, but what we have before us now is a different bill, a bill that we've never seen before. this bill is not a conference report. it takes zero cues from the senate bill. not a single representative of the american people has been given the opportunity to offer even a single amendment to this legislation. all i've been asking for is a vote on an amendment that eliminates certain insurance rebates for second homes. my amendment would not change homeowners' flood insurance policies or even reduce the new taxpayer subsidy we're going to give them. it simply removes a retroactive reimbursement for second homes. essentially, we ask that working families around the country, including taxpayers in my state, not have to cut an additional check to the owners of coastal vacation houses. i know of no one who objects to my provision on policy grounds. let me repeat that. i don't know of anyone -- not one person -- who has raised a policy objection to the amendment that i've offered. it is an objective improvement to the under

i first want to begin by thanking my colleague, senator schatz who's here with us, senator whitehouse, my colleague from rhode island, senator boxer, members of the senate climate task force for their leadership and for bringing so many of our colleagues to the floor last evening and through the early hours of this morning to call attention to this critical issue of climate change. this issue is daunting and difficult. one reason it's so daunting and difficult is that it is a slow-moving crisis. we are often faulted for not responding to critical issues before us but we are certainly faulted for not responding for those who have responded over the many months and years. the nature of our attention span and political process and other issues crowd out these potential issues. but what we've seen as we look back has been a clear path of evidence suggesting that our climate is changing. and our climate is changing is ways that is going to disadvantageous. disadvantageous in terms of our economic productivity, our national security. going to disadvantageous in terms of things we take for g
