it is not solely usa gymnastics. it is also the clubs that are within and under usa gymnastics, those private coaches. they are still on the floor out there verbally, emotionally, physically and psychologically abusing these young girls. that is why when these hundreds of young girls went through what they went through with larry nassar, many remained silent because they were already experiencing abuse in other ways that the sexual abuse was just adding to the uncomfortability that they were already facing. and nobody is bringing up the fact that john geddard who was charged in 20 plus cases of human trafficking, child porn, just to name a few, ended up taking his own life. that was the 2012 olympic team coach. he was the one who also opened his doors for larry nassar to come in. there is a lot of gym owners, a lot of private coaches out there that need not be working with our young kids because they are toxic, they are abusive and they are damaging these young people. >> and anne thompson, what do you think is reall

by usa gymnastics. i want you to know this didn't happen to gymnast two or agent lee a. it happened to me, maggie nichols. since i was a child i had a dream of competing for my country in the world championships and olympic games. i was an elite level gymnast by the age of 13. by the time i was 14, i made the national team. i traveled internationally for four years attending competitions and in 2015 at the world championships representing our country where i won a gold medal. my olympic dreams ended in the summer of 2015 when my coach and i reported larry nassar' abuse to usag leadership. i went on to compete at the university of oklahoma where i was named first team all american in the all-around in all four events and was an eight-time national champion. i reported my abuse to usa gymnastics over six years ago, and so my family and i received few answers and have even more questions about how this was allowed to occur and dozens of other little girls and women at michigan state had to be abused after i reported. in sacrificing my childhood for the chance to compete for

usa olympic committees. we can't believe there is a safer future for children unless he we understand everything that happened. usa gymnastics said they did full investigations but they were not independent. nothing should be off-limits. should go back that hasn't been done and that's something we asked for, for years. we would like to see a 3 organizations investigated and the scope of it matters. until we know all of the facts it's just guess work. i hope you guys feel the same way about the idea if we are speaking about children going into sports, i don't want to be guessing they will be okay. i want to know with 100% certainty that someone looking the other way for us still isn't in a position of power. the investigation is crucial. until that, i don't have any faith that things will get better in the sport. >> okay. i will go to my last question. i hope this is not something so sensitive you don't feel you can talk about it. do you have any thoughts or inputs to share about the national nonprofit entity

my reports of abuse were not only buried by usa, g u, s o p c. but they were also mis handled by federal law enforcement officers who failed to follow their most basic duties the f, b, i and others within both usa, g and u. s. o, p c, knew that nasa molested children and did nothing to restrict his access. steve penny and any usa g employ could have walked a few steps to file a report with the indiana child protective services since they shared the same building. instead, they quietly allowed nasser to slip out the side door, knowingly, allowing him to continue his work at m. s. u. sparrow, hospital, a usa g club, and even run for school board. nasser found more than $100.00 new victims come, alas, it was like serving innocent children up to a pedophile on a silver platter. why did none of these organizations warn any one? usa g and u. s. o, p c, have a long history of enabling abuse by turning a blind eye. both organizations knew of nasser abuse long before it became public. although you wouldn't know that by their, by reading their press releas

we need to feel like we are not adversaries to usa gymnastics. i imagine we all feel it's crazy for me to try to wrap my ahead around all we're asking for is that when a child goes into gymnastics or goes to school that they can be spared abuse. the fact we have been treat bid adversaries by so many organizations and our abuse has been diminished. we have been victim shamed online over and over again. we have been gas lit. we have been made the feel we don't matter by these organizations. i never want another child to feel that way again. mykalya mentioned this so so often survivors question themselves. they distrust how they feel. that's something i went through and especially because the fbi made me feel like my abuse didn't count and it wasn't a big deal. i remember sitting there with the fbi agent and him trying to convince me it wasn't that bad. it's taken me years of therapy to realize that my abuse was bad. it does matter and i think it's really important to also have education and prevention in the sport as well. i don't see the organizat

host: what was the usa freedom act? guest: we need to talk about the fisa amendments act because this is something that happens in between those two. host: go for it. guest: in 2008, some of the stuff we were talking about comes a little bit later so there are 2000 for additions like the so-called lone wolf authority to essentially use pfizer for suspected terrorists who are not to a terrorist organization. as far as we know, it's never been used but remains on the books. in 2008, as more and more of the components of stellar wind are exposed, it becomes clear that one part of stellar wind, the targeted but warrantless collection of certain international communications traffic is not really something that you can adequately shoehorn into these existing brought authorities. in 2008, the pfizer amendment act is passed. the most significant part is section 702. what that does is authorized what our founding fathers would've pulled a general warrant. the premise behind 702 is that it creates a kind of authority that could b

larry nassar and that usa team. think about having raised in your gym a child in your care and coaching, and then to watch this happen. i mean, you talk about collateral damage. there is so much. i do want to say what we're setting up for now. so the director of the fbi, christopher wray and the office of the inspector general, represented by the ig himself, horowitz, will be next, inside that senate judiciary committee. and as they begin to get set, i do want to quickly -- we'll have to go very fast when they walk in the room and start talking. i want to quickly, kayleigh, get your thoughts about what you want to hear from those two. >> kayleigh: we're going to hear a backward looking account of what happened. we anticipate reporting a scathing statement from wray. i think there needs to be a forward look. one of the senators brought forward a very important point. is the fbi equipped to handle sexual abuse cases? you came into a really bad system. what have you done since then to make sure this never happens again

europe are the defending champions, but they have a huge task to repeat that feat on usa soil.o live now to whistling straits, where our correspondent andy swiss is following the action. andy, as i said in my headlines, europe started well but the usa just starting to show now why everyone said they were favourites. they are so superior on paper, are they not? yes, as you say, on paper us very much the favourites also they have eight out of the world top ten players, and they also have home advantage, and it was certainly a pretty tough morning for the european players, although they did get up to a decent start courtesy of the spanish duo ofjon rahm and sergio garcia, who beatjordan spieth and justin thomas to win the first point of this ryder cup, a brilliant performance from the two spaniards, jon rahm in particular with sump terrific pots —— sump terrific putts. afterwards, these were the thoughts of sergio garcia. it felt great. the best thing is i knew_ it felt great. the best thing is i knew i— it felt great. the best thing is i knew i had on my side, jon, and i would _

i'd love a job with the usa olympic and paralympic committee. that was the conversation. but could all of this be born because he wanted a job? there was another. the special supervisory agent was the one that interviewed michaela maroney and he also covered it up. what were the conversations between them that we don't know about? because the attorney for these victims believes there was a conspiracy here. that is a very serious allegation, it is a loaded term, but what were the conversations so that at least two fbi agents worked toward the same result? . >> flhopefully we get some absolutes to those questions when the justice department testifies. when you talk to people at the fbi and the justice department, can they tell you with certainty that the roots of that corruption, potential conflict of interest, all of those roots have been ripped out, or is there still a problem? >> no. we don't even fully understand the roots of the problem, exactly why they were engaging together in this same pattern of behavior. why did it take a year and a half to write down a victim st

that's why congress must quickly enact the restoring brand usa act. i would like to thank you for an reducing the restoring brand usa act which provides one-time emergency funding of 250 million to support the organizations recovery. we strongly support the inclusion of this act in the omnibus tourism act of 2021 which provides another possible pathway towards enactment. finally, congress must support investments and policies that can make the travel industry stronger and more globally competitive than it was before the pandemic. congress can a call pushes by enacting the visit america act which would elevate the commerce department role in coordinating federal travel policies and setting long-term national strategies, establishing more senior leadership at the department of transportation to coordinate travel policy across all modes of transportation, enacting the one-stop security pilot program that would streamline the entry process without compromising security, and making investments in travel infrastructure to bring about a more modern efficient

death valley in the usa. unarguably one of the hottest places on earth.ing argued within the meteorological world. it currently holds the record for the highest temperature on earth, 56.7 celsius, 134 fahrenheit, back in 1913. but that reading, taken at this weather station, just doesn't add up, according to weather historian christopher burt. observations got to be a little kind of screwy in may of 1913 when it kind of looked like maybe he was just filling in the spaces for the temperature, because they were kind of all the same day after day even though temperature was varying wildly from day to day at all the other surrounding sites. so that was kind of a little red flag at the beginning there. the world meteorological organisation verifies temperature records, and randy cerveny who signs off their investigations says he hasn't seen enough evidence to discount the 1913 reading. obviously we don't have as good of quality of data going back to that time as we do with modern records today. we can take the record and actually have the sensor that recorded

how did it get from afghanistan all the way to the usa? the fellow government, instead of dealing with wounded troops, basically turn them into a bunch of junkies and oxycontin. and this texas abortion, i do not know if c-span or anybody brought it up, do you know if texas is a parental rights state? i don't know if you know what that is, but that allows a sexual abuser to come back to the woman and say, i want to see my kid. 14 states have that law. i don't know if states up the law against that abuse or make vigilantes of people who force these deadbeat dads to pay for their own kids. i know texas is probably going to rely on settlement money like they rely on federal money for everything else. you never talk about socialization of settled money for all of these red states. keep up a good job as usual, c-span. >> in new york city, good morning to rob on a democrat's line. >> good morning. thank you for your good work and c-span. i guess my top story is has to do with this texas abortion law that are just ridiculous and medieval. it is so

death valley in the usa, unarguably one of the hottest places on earth.being argued in the meteorological world. it currently holds the record for the highest temperature on earth. 56.7 celsius, 124 fahrenheit back in 2014. at this weather station that just doesn't add up according to weather historian christopher bert. it's gotta be a bit screwy in terms of 1913 when it looked like maybe he was just filling in the spaces because we've seen them all of the same, day after day, but the temperature was very varying widely from day to day at all the other surrounding sites. so, there was a little bit of a red flag at the beginning there. the world meteorological 0rganisation verifies temperature records and they signed off the investigations saying that they have not seen enough evidence to discount the 1913 reading. obviously, we don't have as good data as we do with modern records today. we can take a record and actually have the sensor that recorded it tested independently in the lab and make sure it was working. we don't have that luxury of observations
