the sheriffs are loud and vociferous and okay, but they have that freedom.e rest of us ought to keep our whits about us and say these ideas, while they're entitled to them, are not helpful in moving this issue forward. we need to do something different which is what we did last year, and i'm extraordinarily proud of what we did last year and what the governor did last year. >> john, you say you're proud. you lost your job, in part, because of this issue. the governor was with you on this, but now seems like he regrets part of it. what do you make of that, that regret from him and he's still in office? >> well, certainly he's facing re-election, and i think he's making a similar mistake that was made in the recall elections because again, those were issue committees. so i didn't get to have any say in what we said or did and how we spent our money. but we didn't talk about guns and the violence that they do, and what little truthfully we had done to stem that, and now i am extraordinarily disappointed that the government is disrespecting the families of the v

massachusetts they tried their own massachusetts version of that colorado law, but the protests were so vociferouscal police said it was not a workable law for them. in testimony before the massachusetts legislature, seven years into massachusetts trying to enforce their version of the sort of bubble law, the man who's now boston's commissioner of police told the legislature the floating bubble law was basically impossible for police to enforce outside massachusetts clinics. he said, "i like to make the reference of basketball referee down there. we're watching feet. watching hands." he said it was impossible to enforce. that year that he made that testimony, 2007, massachusetts changed its law basically to make the whole thing simpler. and in massachusetts now, there is a yellow line painted on the ground outside clinic entrances. it marks a fixed zone. a fixed space. 35 feet from the clinic entrance that is basically a no-protest zone, a bubble like you've got around polling places, like you've got around military funerals. like the justices of the supreme court enjoy every day. that fixed zone

david, we've had people like john mccain coming out and being really vociferous on this point, accusing the president of napping on the job. do you think that this solution is going to satisfy those more hawkish elements in washington? >> no, i don't think so. i think the president has two chief concerns. one is, he's got the prospect of an islamic al qaeda state taking root in iraq when it's already taken root in part of syria. you have this al qaeda terrorist state that crosses these two countries and has the very real prospect of being in a position to be able to attack americans either in the region, in europe or even here in the united states. the president is on record. he doesn't want that to happen anywhere on the globe. really the basis for fighting in afghanistan. so that part of his foreign policy philosophy we know. the other piece is what chuck gets at. you'll never be able to beat back an isis and keep it beaten back if you don't have someone in charge of iraq who can keep all of these pieces together. kurds, sunnis and shia. maliki is not the guy. and that's the relate. t

everything that happened which is over the past ten amongst there have been all kinds of debates, vociferous, spirited, scornful, but the essential claim has been of one side, the nsa insisting that we need not worry about what it is that they're doing because it's an extremely discriminating, targeted, careful form of surveillance only interested in monitoring the communications of people who are engaged in terrorist plotting or other forms of threats to american national security. and on the other side you have people like in the and edward snowedden and the aclu and other people who have been saying that actually the exact opposite is true. this is a system of indiscriminate, limitless, upick quit to us surveillance, unliking in been created in the world and you look at the debate, death alexander says one thing and i say the opposite, there's no way for a person in good faith to resolve those differences except for the good luck we happen to have tens of thousands of nsa documents which resolves the differences decisively. one document i published is illustrative of countless documents t

if all that the women can see and hear are vociferous opponents of abortion the buffer zones have effectivelyntended or not the court's ruling gives it to anti-choice advocates to counsel a pregnant woman about the choices she should or should not make with her own body. yet these counselors don't have to hold any particular license to hole these sidewalk counseling sessions. what about the rights of pregnant with women who want to keep their condition, you know, p private? the court's decision can be viewed as narrowly tailored. it is a step towards taking away a woman's access to full reproductive care and preventing had her from enjoying the full breadth of autonomy. erin carmon, akhil from yale university. michelle, who is a clinic escort be a defense organizer. thank you for being here. >> thank you for having us. >> i have many feelings. this a unanimous decision. i have enough respect left for the court that it makes me presume this must have been legally the right decision. >> well, i have some questions. here is the good news. they love the first amendment. >> well, that's good. ever

little bit of the charlie story who was a founder of bit instant right and one of the first and most vociferous bitcoin evangelists and he got caught at the airport and arrested and allegedly he's involved with some money laundering but he's a young guy twenty two twenty three years old got really caught up in the in the phantasmagorical ito's so much libertarianism and it's just i think it's impossible to reconcile what you doing when you just in your bedroom at a laptop and understand the power of how illegal it is when you do something so you can easily get kind of sucked into it because it is a like a like a drug trip in that sense a lot of people when the internet hit in the mid ninety's they equate it to l.s.d. in the sixty's because it gave this unbelievable amount of freedom and then that became co-opted you know very much as h.b.o. is paid to play the internet is dead as we know it you know the net neutrality is dead then bitcoin comes along and it's again this l.s.d. counterculture movement of freedom but now it's meeting regulation it's meeting resistance it's meeting it is bitcoin g

if you were to ask me which side of the aisle speaks most vociferously about local control, i will tell you that side of the aisle. so when republicans interfere with local matters of the district of columbia, they are in violation of some of their most threshold principles. representative jordan interestingly introduced, and i think this may not have had to do with the fact that it was the new ear anniversary of the town shooting, but that's when he introduced the bill, there were services all over the country. i think he just introduced it because that's when he thought of it and it was on his national rifle association checklist. most recently representative rk meadows of north carolina has introduced a bill that would keep the federal government from deducting as an employer the dues of federal employees. it's a labor right. if you vote that your employer can deduct your dues, you can do so private and public employer. well, i wouldn't be on this floor if this were a national bill. that's consistent with representative meadows' views. but representative meadows is -- has reached int
