and they are coming to the united states, a nation of immigrants, a nation built on a foundation of core values, and we do not turn away those fleeing persecution and certain death. and it's those same values that tell us that when children, including infants and toddlers, are at our doorstep, we do not put them in cages, tear them from their mothers' arms, let them go without showers, food, or medical attention, or let them sleep on cold floors. the reality is customs and border patrol officers are not trained to care for children, much less those who have experienced trauma. they are not prepared nor qualified to provide the much-needed care to the families and children who are coming here. what's also true is that there are members of our border patrol and law enforcement who are trying to do the right thing. those men and women, they signed up to protect our country from terrorism, narcotics, and foreign threats. they are not trained to take care of traumatized children. but the fact remains the state of things in these immigration facilities is untenable and indefensible. i have had the ch

that is the foundation on which you will be able to resist the attraction that is not adding value toour life and get positives out of the values that are. consider visual artists. when i was researching the book i learned that if you are a visual artist, instagram is a godsend. if you are a visual artist, you have to expose yourself to other people doing work in your genre. it used to be, if you want to be a successful visual artist, you had to live in one of three cities where they had a large gallery seem to expose yourself to art. on instagram, and while of artists post what they are working on. a lot of artists i work with a instagram is crucial to what i do. at the same time, they are unhappy with looking at it all the time. the minimalist response is, maybe take instagram off your phone. maybe you want to curate who you selective lista of artists. and maybe you want a schedule. friday nights on tuesday mornings, 20 minutes. theare not abstaining from tool, but you are putting them to use incredibly selectively for things you care about. host: you write, humans are not wired to

must say as well, the research over a lifetime by the heritage foundation and the brookings institution's ron hansen who is a fellow values colleague from the bush years had a large impact on my and my co-author, also i was recently honored to get two of the 5 volumes, i am struck over and over again by how that remarkable generation of our founders ultimately in the greatest document for freedom in the history of mankind settled on those three words that are more timely today i would argue than any time in the history of our country, we the people. what does we the people mean in the 21st century? if we traveled all around our great country, walked into any room of 100 people would we all mostly agree on who we the people are or what meaning of the phrase is now? i want to say something else. there will never be in a conservative equivalent of the great society. that little bit of time in the 1960s where the administrative state. thes decided they would incentivize the destruction of the family and marriage. there is not ever going to be a moment where from culture conservatives will come together and say here's the 10 p

value proposition for a project like this. it's -- it's a regional effort with national economic impact. the connectivity to other modes of transit and transportation are an essential part of what it does. this is a foundational project, in that sense. and it's important to point out that it also maximizes the value and the utility of existing transportation and especially transit infrastructure investments, that have been made by the region to date. whether it's caltrain, high-speed rail activities, muni, bart or others. so it does serve that local, regional and national function. and as i mentioned before, we're -- we're referring to, as the train project, because downtown extension doesn't really do justice to what this project can accomplish. and doesn't get to the benefit value to the larger region. one of the key initial recommendations is to build the long-term and durable support of stakeholders and local regional, state and federal elected officials. it is an essential element of a project. if you look at the mega-projects nationally and internationally that have succeeded, one common characteristic is they've spent the time and effort up front and it's often considerable effort to build the broad co

[applause] so thank you so much for all that you do to promote and fight for the values that we cherish. this morning let me share some thoughts on how government leaders and policy makers can put these principles into action. you know, one of the most important things that governments can do for families is to create the environment, the climate for growth so that the economy can expand and create more jobs. that means letting families keep more of their hard earned dollars and reducing unnecessary burdens that hamper investment and job creation. you might know that small businesses employ 60% of all workers in our country. they're more likely to be family owned. it is so much harder for them, small businesses, to cope with government paperwork burdens than large corporations, you know, which can afford to hire a lot of lawyers and accountants to comply. and that is why from the very first day this administration has made cutting taxes and reducing red tape

it is a party that is supposed to be built on the foundations and the values of equality for all andundreds of cases still outstanding. the list keeps on stacking up because people are not being held to account. members should be suspended. we should be seeing staff being held to account for this. and if they won't resign they should be sacked. and we need to see constituency parties suspended as well. and yet this action isn't forthcoming. time and time and time again there are stories in the press ona again there are stories in the press on a weekly if not daily basis about this horrid stinking issue within the labour party and still it's not been dealt with. and do you think this is something that the party can actually recover from than? how would you ever consider rejoining the labour party, for example, if they do sort out these problems? well, the problem is so widespread and has been going on for so long and has been going on for so long and still, even today, in the wake of this expose these revelations we had about just last night of this expose these revelations we had abo

calculation of power, often religion is a foundational aspect of shaping what policymakers think of as a national interest and think of exporting morality or core national values and seeing the ways in which religion is tied up into those particular values. bringing the history of religion into the -- excuse me, conservative religion into the study of human rights helps us think about the ways that human rights history and political history around activism -- a lot of these terms are fluid and contested. human rights as a term was fluid and contested in the 1970's, and shows us the ways activists can use language of human rights and shape the parameters of debate and shape the parameters of politics. , thee 1980's, the views ways of thinking about human rights that conservative activists put forth and up shaping the politics of the reagan administration and shaping the way human rights policies look in the 1980's, it was quite significant. so religious differences, religious conflicts all have an impact in politics. basically, we should be keeping this in mind is essentially where i'm going. historian, a modern u.s. political and labor the popularut language t
