the size of the state department. the state department and diplomacy are essentially the relationship building part of how we deal with other nations. military represents hopefully a deterrent, but if necessary a coercive force. you want that to be your last option. unfortunately, we have it always prioritized, or built up, the infrastructure for diplomacy that were allowed -- that would allow us to reduce tensions and build alliances around the world to make sure we are in the strongest position in terms of allies and support. it is interesting you mentioned the number of diplomats china has committed they are -- there is right now an imbalance between the u.s. military positions around the world. china only has one military base outside of mainline -- mainland china, that's in djibouti. they are trying to get to other continents around the world, but the u.s. is far ahead of china in that respect. still, they have done a lot of work under their belt and wrote initiative to expand their alliances around the world. wh

, state, another state. kretzer: justice kavanaugh, i think i'd have to very respectfully disagree with the premise of that last part of the question, which is that a non-tdcj employee chaplain necessarily carries with him some appreciable additional level of risk. i can say i attach -- justice kavanaugh: okay. can i stop you right there? i don't see how you can say that. there's another human being, to go back to judge higginbotham, in the execution room in about the most fraught situation anyone could imagine, especially if the person is, by definition, close to the inmate, spiritually, friends, and they're about to die and be put to death. and the idea that we can predict how another human being will react in that situation and be sure, as you're saying, that the person is not going to react in a way that they would never react in any other situation, i just don't -- i don't know. you might be right and -- and we'll see, i guess, if -- if you prevail here, how this plays out. but it's not my decision, and

[inaudible] the state and the city the state of emergency in the city. >> we really want to get that vaccine approved for them right, dr. baba. do you have someone under 12 at home? you're asking for others. >> for others. >> i'm still going to get asked by potential students what's step one and step two how to go about. >> i hope you'll correct me if i'm wrong. we have things set up all across the city. we'll do that annually and run that against our add missions records. one of those schools have their tuition covered for eight consecutive terms. >> do you mean physical or online? >> the physical site. we're going to send them out. >> thank you. >> placed across the city. >> i'm from the san francisco examiner. we know people from all walks of life and also the age group between 25 to 34 is really the lowest vaccinated age group right now. so can you talk about why this is specifically for the age group that it was and kind of what your thoughts are with kind of getting that younger adult age group vaccinated too. >> we're focused on this group because they are so far our largest i

some states appoint the secretary of state. when they do, that is usually a democrat governor appointing a democrat secretary or a republican governor appointing a republican secretary of state. you really cannot take the politics out of it. we are not running the election. we oversee the election. we received of results from the counties. we cannot change those results. we investigate and make sure we have honest elections. the secretary of state's office is not trying to overturn the will of the people. host: next, james on the independent line. caller: greetings, good morning. regarding mr. reynolds at the georgia bureau of investigation recently dismissing the data presentation, i find this alarming. if you are an engineer and say that data speaks strongly, the synchronization of surveillance video and the pings off the cell phone data seem to be a big question, especially when it comes to ballot harvesting. please speak to that and given honest answer. please don't refute that because it is irrefutable data. guest: they sa

in my state, in the state of missouri, we have historic flooding. historic flooding in my state. unfortunately, we had many residents who were out of -- who were forced out of their homes. out of their businesses, off their farms. their experience with fema was not a pleasant one. they could not figure out what the rules were, who to talk to, we had residents who were awarded assistance and had it retracted from them while they were still out of their homes you do qualify, no, give it back to us. this is totally unacceptable and at a minimum, fema needs to commit to being more transparent and doing a better job on the ground in informing residents in disaster areas what assistance is available, what fema can do to help them, who the contacts are and where they can get information and on to make sure when assistance is needed, it gets to the people who need it and it has not been redrawn from the rug and pulled out in front of them. can you commit you will work with me on these transparency issues, on these informational issues for my constituents in the state of missouri, but for

the state of texas is not. >> counsel, the state is an idealized entity. the whole fiction of ex parte young had to be created because a state can't -- it can only designate people to act for it. and so if the state is designating whether it's ordinary citizens or the attorney general, district attorneys, if it is designating those people to act for it, why are those people bound by any judgment that says state, , what you're doing is unconstitutional? >> they -- >> they are no agent of yours. can enforce this law. whether it's ordinary citizens, the attorney general, state licensing officials, clerks of court or as shelley recognized the court system that would enforce a restrictive covenant demanding segregation. why aren't we in exactly that same position? >> they would be bound if they could satisfy the test of rule 65 which says they have to be acting in active concert. >> why? each of them is acting under the directives of the state law so why aren't they acting like the state? >> i respectfully disagree with that characterization. >> i know you disa

one of the greatest treasures in our state. one of the things we could do around the state, my son and i spent time in the homes of some families who had farms in vermont, and after talking with them i was convinced we needed a law to set standards in organic farming. as chairman of the agriculture committee, committee that's able to pass the law that established the national organics standards and labor program that helped launch organic farm sector that is now a $55 billion a year industry. across this country. also a great avenue for vermont. i also look at the former chairman of the committee in agriculture and forestry. i brought back the word nutrition. every named at the agriculture nutrition and forestry committee. i was pleased a republican and every democrat on the committee voted with me to do that. again by meeting with vermonters all over the state, i realized the need to have a law that allowed snap benefits to be used in farmers' markets to increase our student lunch programs, and give the means to create the far

they enforce state law. shelley versus kramer being the most prominent landmark example of that. can you fill in the gaps there and explained to me how we should think about that language and light of how we conceptualize state court enforcement of private civil suits now? >> yes your honor. i think the most straight forward ways to apply ex parte young is to apply relief on ex parte young that was up the commencement of the suits and not create any of the problems raised in ex parte young about stopping the adjudication for a quick sorry to interrupt i think justice thomas' question wasn't getting at, take the point to distinguish the judges from the clerks. are they in that language are you saying we should not do that and i just want to hear your answer why should we do that? >> that's right i don't think so that language i think that language supports relief against the clerks versus whether courts should restrain there are instances of the court has recognized where it relief against eight judges and co

to that i would add the state of iowa, which is eight-point trump state in which charles grassley is running again, those who wagered money against chuck grassley have him winning elections and have been losing it for 64 years, he was first elected to the iowa legislator in the democratic year of 1958 to the house of representatives in the democratic year of 1974. he 1 still getting up at 5:00 a.m. and running, doing his daily jogging and he announced his candidacy there, i think he will be tough to beat. and i note some democrats are hoping a republican primary winner will put missouri a 15 point trump state within range and some republicans hope there will be a spirited challenge against michael bennett in colorado, a republican state. i think those look like very long shots now. so basically we are seeing a nation that's a little tilted with the governor races being won by the republican in virginia and coming within three points of winning in new jersey, a 16-point biden state. but i think in state races, you're liable to see more factors pertaining to the specific candidate or t

state and federal governments. and settlements are in the best interest of those governments because a trial could result in even greater liability than a settlement could. am i correct in that view? >> you are, senator. and i think the american public was united in its condemnation of the family separation policy of the prior administration, and it is that that will constitute a jury in any trial. >> thank you. senator cruz. >> thank you, mr. chairman. secretary mayorkas, you told senator graham that you have released somewhere between 500,000 and 700,000 illegal aliens. you told me you don't know how many of those had covid. you told me further you don't know how many of those were sexually assaulted by the human traffickers who brought them in. when you were talking with chairman durbin, you talked about catch and release. and chairman durbin asked you whether illegal immigrants who were released under catch and release and given a court date in the future, whether they show up. you responded, quote, the great m

state court? so what's the difference between this case where you think he's an enforcer and 4 billion other cases -- you've read their briefs. all right. you understand their argument. what's your response to it? >> the response is that under the rule that we are advancing here is that where a state is trying to nullify the exercise of a right, a constitutional right that's been recognized by this court, by delegating enforcement to the public and taking away normal, ordinary executive officials. and then also creating special court rules, in order to turn the court system -- we're not -- we're not saying that judges or clerk are intending to do anything here, but it's the rules that have been created by the texas legislature that turn courts into a weapon that can be used to nullify constitutional -- >> you might appreciate that the idea of suing the judges sort of got our attention. but is there even a case or controversy in such a suit? i understand the position of the plaintiff, exactly what

we are respecting people's individual freedom and the state. [cheers and applause] and that is something that is very important. i don't know how it ever came to this point even doctor fauci would say no mandate. to say you cannot even work some people say kids should not even be able to go to school and this has gotten so far out of whack. so florida from the very beginning, when they were bugging us all they wanted to do was lockdown, we were opening the state keeping businesses open. and they would criticize us we actually wanted to have our kids in school in person but we did and we led on that and we let on a number of things. most recently we led on providing early treatment options with monoclonal antibodies with a huge success. they don't want to tell you this but florida for almost one month has been either the lowest where one of the lowest covid in the entire country. [cheers and applause] that is a fact. you can see that surging another parts. the corporate media doesn't like it with a surge in other parts just in places that they d

states. in virginia, a record number of registered voters cast early ballots ahead of today's highly-watched governor's race between democrat terry mcauliffe and republican glenn youngkin, a former ceo of a private equity firm who's backed by former president donald trump. terry mcauliffe is close to bill and hillary clinton and is one of the democratic party's most prolific fundraisers. he previously served one term as virginia's governor and was chair of the democratic national committee from 2001-2005. advisers to the centers for disease control meet today to discuss the pfizer covid vaccine -19 for children as young as five. the fda has already approved shots for five- to 11-year-olds, saying the benefits of vaccinations far outweigh the risks to kids. the biden administration says millions of pediatric vaccine doses have already begun shipping around the country and that inoculations could begin later this week once cdc director dr. rochelle walensky gives the final green light. new york

that is threats of punishment of united states citizens. understand what that is, then develop the algorithms and supporting technologies needed to defeat that. narrowly focus at, let's have it as a just break glass initiative. on a day-to-day basis these wouldn't be used, but when there is an intense crisis, over ukraine or whatever the crisis, then we would have something to fall back on. we would have some operational capabilities. above all, let's exercise those capabilities, because they are not real unless you exercise them first. mr. ferrari: one of the points made by the proponents of information operations in russia, and in china is that there is no time period between war and peace. we live in this constant gray zone, and both of you have made this point. first off, how would you exercise in case of emergency break glass, when really we are in this constant fight? second, to elisabeth's point on these c.e.o.'s of a lot of these large tech companies, i believe a lot of them view their role as global in nature. if you look at facebo

. >> host: several highly publicized school mass shootings in the united states. what would you suggest to prevent those? >> this is something that has concerned me for 420 years and a major focus of my research. the research center that i'm president of reported a while ago that with all the school shootings, every type of school shooting all the way up to mask public shootings from 2000 through 2003 teen and what we found was that in the states, in the schools that allow teachers and staff to be able to go and carry guns there hasn't been one attack at any level in which anybody has been wounded or killed in any of those schools. the attacks for which they occur keep on occurring in places which teachers and staff aren't allowed to carry. you may have one police officer guarding the school but it's an almost impossible job. if you have one person he is the only that's known to have a gun and he is in uniform who do you think they go after first because they know if they can take out that one officer they are going to have free reign to go after the people. the a

a larger percentage than most states, and fact, of all the states. the rest of this date is a mix of those who work in higher education, defense contractors, and agriculture. a majority of the state is still extremely rural. this gives the state are represented should -- representation of the various demographics that make up the united states. those demographics have been increasingly blue. resident biden had a 10% lead over president trump. yet yesterday, this week by the republicans -- sweep by the republicans shows a winning play for the gop going into the 2022 midterms. natasha joins us with all of the results of tuesday's elections, as well as the issues which motivated voters to the polls. virginia was the main focus, but there were other major races, including with one which took longer to call then just election night. >> yes, and we will get to those. we have to start with the race in virginia. you might've heard the state travel slogan, "virginia is for lovers," but on tuesday, but motto could have been virginia is for voters. >> all, virg

versus texas, whether the united states could sue a sovereign state. or whether that was in permissible. whenever nonetheless, -- both of these questions go to the broader existential question of, what is the united states supreme court have to say when a state goes rogue. and decides to completely defy the courts precedence. >> yeah, that was a lot of the argumentation, yet if you have a constitutional right and you come up with some crafty scheme to deny it, we can still see what you're doing. this was the -- and, amy for you, the kind of novel jurisdictional question here, relates directly to the work you do. because the whole thing was crafted in this way to avoid an injunction, to shut down abortion providers in the state of texas, and keep them shut down as long as possible to basically bleed you drive. to make you impossible for you to stay in business and continue providing health care for women. what effect has it had? >> you know, the effect has been devastating, chris. it's right you're right, is there to block access, to make it more diffic

now, the united states cannot have the cake, i eat it back in 1979, the united states did the right thing. they sever the relations with taiwan. they cancel the defense treaty between the united states and taiwan. they withdrew all the u. s. troops, station leading taiwan. now if they want to really reverse that, be my guest, but the consequences will be there will be no more to provide the relations between china and the united states and the real legal status between channels. mainland anti one is the our finished a civil war. why taiwan ended up with his current situation. first of all, it's because of the cairo declaration pottstown declaration. secondly, it's because of the civil war in china, the nationalist of forces, fred, the mainland, and settled down in taiwan. so if the united states keep provoking that they probably will provoke the resumption of the civil war. and do you think the u. s. wants to shit its sons and daughters plot for a civil war between china's mainland and china's taiwan provings. be. ready my guest, i don't think the united states want to ship blood of the a

your state department is welcome to returned her talks. we believe every means possible to quickly reach and implement an understanding on a mutual return to compliance with the jcp away by closing the relatively small number of issues that remained outstanding at the end of june. when the 6 round concluded, we believe that if the iranians are serious, we can manage to do that in relatively short order. but we've also been clear, including as this pause has dragged on for some time, that this window of opportunity will not be open forever. dosage or berries, following developments from doha, she says, some sticking points remain. despite the announcement to resume talks, there are never said they weren't going to go back to the negotiating table with the world powers. it was just a matter of time before they decided when they would resume these talks, then you administration of abraham racy, which took office in august, said that they were being handed over the file from the previous negotiating team of then president has had ro, honie, an

we don't learned lessons to well in the united states. we should because otherwise, we will spend another trillion dollars and have a horrible result. on the class of patient, all i can tell you is i have been here maybe as long as you have since 1982 and i've been dealing with classified information since 1978 and i have learned one thing and i will take it to my grave and that is governments don't classify good news. that's the one thing i've learned. i don't think it has changed since vietnam were probably since world war ii. if a government classifies good news, they will then leak it. i don't know how you break that chain. i think it was senator mccain who talked about classification is basically used to protect incompetency and other nefarious actions. he would know better than any of us. i think there is some truth to that. that's the best way to hide your screw ups is put of classification on it. >> that's quite a slate of reports that's been requested by congress and they look over to reading them stuff i'm wondering if there any

you just invoked the states secret privilege where you send a notice to say we intend to invoke the state secrets privilege and now we invoke the states secret privilege, make sense? >> in this case it does and served the useful function and they served a motion and we said as a preliminary matter before even briefing it, we tried to make some of these totten versus reynolds kinds of arguments to the district court and we said don't even look at the information, first decide as a threshold matter whether or not the state secrets doctrine can apply here and may be a necessary evil you'll have to ask look at ex parte information and if you avoid that would be better and is unconstitutional. we lost obviously that argument. but i think it served a very important function here. and yeah, i do thinking it's important for that reason. justice alito: one other question, under 1806 do you think that the judge must be able to look at all the evidence to the extent it's necessary to decide whether the surveillance was lawful? >> its applications, orders, and such other materials as are necessary to

into a border state. the amount of drugs, the amount of trafficking that is flowing in here, talking to local law enforcement, the way they're looking at the cartels. mr. attorney general, there is a lot that needs to be done to secure this country, and the parents of the kiddos in our schools, they are not the problem. there are other problems that need your attention. >> thank you, senator blackburn. the committee will stand in recess for five minutes. meeting will resume. senator hawley? >> mr. chairman, did you call on me? i'm happy to go. >> i'm sorry. i didn't see senator osoff. thank you, senator hawley. thank you, mr. chairman. attorney general, nice to see you. thank you for joining us. last week, the senate passed legislation that i introduced alongside chair durbin and ranking member grassley, the prison camera reform act. to reduce violence and civil rights abuses in b.o.p. facilities by overhauling the security camera system that ig horowitz has found is outdated, unreliable, as well as the m

states, why? because we're resonating with the american people because we're talking about the voters. >> are you worried that in some areas or with some candidates they're going to-- because they're not all youngkin not all going to talk about school. a lot of them are going to talk about the elections, the fraud, the voting. are you worried that that messaging-- >> i think the message has been customized to the state and down to the voter. the rnc does that customizing it to the voter and every door knock a different message, but you've got to do what works in your community and talk about issues that resonate. i don't think in florida what happened in the schools are going to be issue because ron desantis kept the schools open. my brother's daughters got to go to homecoming and had a normal life and my kids didn't. they're not behind in geometry or algebra. my kids are. and they're different from a red state run by a republican governor. >> from the german newspaper. >> thank you. interested in

but the border patrol is not shipping people to any state anywhere in the united states. like any other law enforcement, you have limited options once you identify a criminal activity. you arrest the individual and you either release them with something or you detain them or in the case of the border patrol, you deport them. so those are really the only options. the reason that we get to the point we are today is exactly what tom mentioned. when you shut down all your detention and you dramatically reduce your ability to actually deport people, then the only option left is releasing them. the u.s. border patrol is an interdiction agency, customs and border protection the same. we do not own or have massive detention facilities. we have processing facilities. these terms mean going. a processing facility is just that, computers, short term holding. no beds, no food. there's no intent to keep people there long term. border patrol has been criticized over and over again for detaining people too long. that's because the rest of the system is backed up. and border patrol arres

the republican leaders of the state assembly and the state senate introduced maps. for those of you that are familiar with the maps of wisconsin, we have very extreme partisan gerrymander's in place into the proposals would make them even more extreme. the governor, in the meantime, created a people's maps commission and brought a group of people from across the state together to design maps in the way i think they should be designed in a nonpartisan fashion that considers the interests of communities into voters across the state. they are going to release their proposed maps very soon as well. i don't think really anybody in the state expects that they will reach an agreement, but it's -- we always keep hope out that maybe there will be some agreement. if not, this is going to play out in court, and there are currently two c litigations pending. one is in federal court. the c federal court has held the case t in advance, while the ste supreme court considers redistricting. and there's the second litigation in the state supreme court. p now that's playing out right

in surrounding states, there are only 15. so picture that in your head, folks, all those millions of people who only have very limited access. what is the impact of these laws for rooep real people on the ground in texas. are people increasingly desperate to access these health care services they need? are they going to extreme lengths? >> yes, thanks. let's be frank. in the 55-plus days since texas' extreme six-week abortion ban, sb-8 took effect, abortion access's been decimated in texas. but texans have not stopped needing or seeking abortions, right? so this means that clinics in neighboring states have reported huge upticks in patients traveling from texas. an oklahoma clinic reported that two-thirds, two-thirds of the phone calls they receive since sb-8 took effect, they're from patients in texas. this law must be stopped. >> melissa, mark joseph stern argues that break net speed of these hearings means at least one justice is undecided about the texas law. why would it rush to hear these cases? what does that signal, i

s. department of state. i was asked to give speeches in ukraine and when i went there i got a long briefing by john mccain of the state department. and colin powell that we have to trust to who you couldn't trust. and there really was just one person. you could trust that was victor. you, shank, go who was running for president. the briefing i got was if he doesn't win, ukraine has no chance to speak to barbara. victor use jenco foreign february 23rd 1954. he has a degree in economics from 1976. he was involved in the banking sector, working his way up from a clerk to chairman of the national bank of ukraine. however, in this post, he did not decide anything himself. in 1999, he became prime minister of the government of ukraine in 1093 by a twist of fate. on a plane from the united states, he sat next to a united states citizen, catherine clair too much ankle. they were soon married catherine claire, too much ankle. she was born in 1961 in the united states. from the age of 14, she was a member of the ultra

good evening to everyone here in the united states, and get running to you mr. president out beijing. -- morning to you mr. president of beijing. i'm happy we have time to meet, and i look forward to a candid and forthright discussion. as i said before, our responsibility as leaders of china and the united states is to ensure that the competition between our countries does not create conflict whether intended or unintended. it seems to me we need to establish some common sense guardrails, be clear about where we disagree, and work together where our interests intersect. none of this as a favor to either of our countries, but it is responsible world leadership, and you are a major world leader, so is the united states. our bilateral relationship will have a profound impact on both our countries and the rest of the world. we have responsibility to the world as well as to our people. it's why we believe all countries have to play by the same rules of the road. and the united states is always going to stand up for our interests and values, and those of our allies an

the state budget. so there's a tax passed on all wartime earnings. and congratulations you have a portion of my nothing but there is a tax on this morning that he made who hard himself out. but at this point i think this is a their august or september of 1855, shortly after the war. they are attorneys and moves to north mississippi and went to the governor. and you can find these experiences from all different backgrounds another slave and as a businessman a race to the governor needs a look, i already paid my part-time earnings and he is a statement including in his letter from the manu him him saying, he paid a portion of his earnings to me and basically the text of the argument they make to the governor, you can either give me back the tax money that the sheriff has collected from e or we can try to figure out how much you owe me for my labor as an enslaved man in the governor running back ms. just says give him back his money because he's not ready to tackle the bigger issue pretty. >> but for a lo

ready the leadership of the united states is closely monitored, what's going on in the soviet union, and indeed, something extraordinary is transpiring. the all powerful communist party is rapidly losing control. red hammer and sickle flags are fluttering in the wind. new concepts of governance were gaining strength. in the further windows from moscow, the stronger these ideas are felt a man we met and meet incredibly beautiful standing country with opposition. i was very hard to get to know a, to, to its remarkable people. and we did to craze. really independence will lead to greater future how popular at was a day? yeah, that will korean cindy finance among the workers ain't a james. yeah. and high people, i'm your level. we're inscrutable at the commit to come across them way in ways of some that the more political yet in shown us up raska. nope. can a bit of a rule walk to collision on miss couple other graciela going to what the bomb yet nuclear, you know, not centrally push. mr. kayla talk so says shown where your switch us on one. coil it on autopay, lum. de la. c'mon, louis c

of you threatened by the united states. they have grown increasingly goes together. so nice. it's kind of finds it. so someone isolated with facing this are very substantial long and demon b. again, you know that we can bring up a new cold war paradigm. but on china's and nominally a communist country, it's run by a communist party. but it doesn't want to export its ideology. unlike during the 1st cold war, russia, well, it's just a conservative country out there interested in its own self interest here. but how, how do account is american exceptionalism play in this? because i'm the one hand, you know, if you're just said, you know, there's a finally, a reckoning, a recognition. finally, it took a long time that there are other great powers. ok. but the, there they're not this, these 3 great powers are not the same for the u. s. is very and tend to export. it's ivy ology rules based order and all that other nonsense here. and that's what for me, makes it dangerous because the, that russia, basically it's a status quo power

some states some states more than 50%, two thirds of u.s. counties have high community transmission. as the weather gets colder and people spend more time indoors, what are the chances that we will see another winter surge? >> the good news, we are well down from the peak that we hit during the delta waiver earlier this year, early summer. as winter approaches people going indoors and the virus is able to transmit in cold dry air. we know that increases the possibility that there will be spread. a couple of things are critical, number one if you are vaccinated of getting six intrinsic and transmitting the virus to somebody else much lower and makes it important as winter approaches. and second, if you're eligible to get a booster shot, it's especially helpful if you go ahead and do that now. as winter approaches again and people get prepared for the holidays. we should be prepared for the fact that there may be an uptick in cases that we see in various parts of the country with cold weather. the last year is still true, the vaccine give you

we need some or we're sovereign states, can i likely to change? i hear it's not going to change their behavior. they're going to continue to do what they do and it's going to be more in trade and less in terms of trying to match this mortgage mentality in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story. on out j 0 lou ah, ah, hello again. i missed you today and oh, let's remind you of our top stories here. the salad to don's military leader has agreed with the u. s. secretary of state on the need to speed up the formation of a new government general under father albert hom, has ordered the release of for civilian cabinet ministers detained in last month. military take over the un security council is set to meet to discuss the escalation conflict and ethiopia. there are growing calls for an immediate cease fire, and the u. s. envoys in addis ababa to push for de escalation. china has reported 68 new cove at 19 cases as it scrambles to contain a new outbreak. more than $900.00 infections have been reported a since the search began in mid oc

since today's hearing is also about the state of the state department, we must address the department's role in the hazardous withdrawal from afghanistan. despite the administration's efforts to put afghanistan in the rearview mirror, it remains a pressing national security concern for the senate and the american people. it's been over a month since secretary blinken appeared before this committee, and we have yet to receive thee secretary's responses to ours questions for the record thatit were propounded at that time. this is an unacceptable delay, and we expect better responsiveness from the department, which they have always promised, but have never executed on. on the issue of continued evacuations, in september, secretary blinken assured us that there were just one hundred americans remaining in afghanistan that wished to depart. one hundred. just last week, however, the team responsible for continued evacuations of americans told us that they're working with over c 170 americans who wish to depart from more than 360 americans who remain there. and the list is growing. i want to m

look at the state of the amhara region. it would be in rebellion to any government formed of the tigray leadership and the oromo liberation army. with regards to genocide, we have already import area we have seen media reports. we know severe abuses have been committed by the eritrean forces, the by the government, by the amhara. the report talks about abuses by tigrayan militia as well. clearly there has been very severe restrictions placed upon the region in terms of those services, trade, and aid. that seems to be a deliberate policy by the federal government. i and my organization are not in a position to call it genocide. that is up to human rights investigators and international lawyers. >> what is it going to take the end -- to end the suffering of people in ethiopia? >> i would like to say a little bit on the report, they call it a joint investigation by the ethiopian human rights commission. i think from the tigrayan position, i find this to be an insult. you do not allow the perpetrator of the crimes to be part of

of career employees but our board of directors is made up of the directors of the 50 state department of transportation including district of columbia and court of organ. it. >> so the roadbuilding issues and things like that, correct pretty. >> more tha' just road believe in highways, work multi- organization involved in all modes of transportation, because every state department transportation in the country right now is involved in transportation, not just roads and highways and that's how we began 107 years ago as an organization just focused on highways bridges roads and now we are truly an organization to reflect our members and the state department transportation. >> in those multimodal weights, which is currently being spent on the infrastructure in our transportation intersection without adding any more money. >> i think that the important point is here not enough, the states and localities over the last several years have stepped up and increased funding for the transportation infrastructure and the federal government has not for the most part, the funding from the federal g

as for hamas, they only want a one state solution, a palestinian state with no israel. that's not an accusation, it's a fact, just ask them. this is a story that is seldom told but it needs to be told from congress to college campuses. the palestinian leadership has never viewed the peace process as a way of achieving peace with israel. they have always viewed it as a way to destroy israel. [applause] how else can you explain the fact that israel has accepted two-state solutions multiple times only to be rejected by the palestinians every time and followed by violence? if you look at public opinion, there remains far more support in israel for a stew state -- two state solution than there is among the postings. if president had gone forward with the elections in the west bank, we know what would have happened, he would have lost to hamas, a group that openly calls for israel's complete destruction. this is who israel is doing with. even the palestinian authority leaders praised and teach their children that israel will eventually disappear. they are not a partner for pe

rescue plan, put more dollars for the states to expand. if you think about what happens in these that have not expanded coverage, some of the poorest people in our country not having access to critical services puts a strain on our hospitals and on our providers. it makes a difference when it comes to child health. if people don't have coverage and then get pregnant and then have coverage, you have already let them be farther back. if you don't get treatment for underlying services until you have coverage, your health is not as strong as it could be. the coverage gap, as we call it, is a crucial aspect. necessary, not efficient to making sure we address health disparities and improve child health. jonathan: i have to talk about the social determinants of health. what services need to be provided to medicaid pediatric recipients to bolster their coverage and make it as equitable as possible? chiquita: there is a lot of focus on the social determinants of health and i like to think of it as those services that are adjacent to health that inf
