National standards for not only the equipment but the training so that we have a National Response regardless of whether where someone might appear that needs help . Could you share with us and did you respond or did the president respond to the National Nurses united request . So, with regard to the issue of make something you are that our Health Care Workers were prepared, i think we need to think about it in a number of different levels. The first is in that screening and monitoring and thats what state and local Health Care Workers are doing, with then checking on the people who have come from these countries. Second is that that initial front line worker, in a Health Care Institution that needs to be able to detect and isolate, ask the right question. If off fever what is your travel history . The next is the level where treatment will occur and as we describe in our submission, this will be in a more state by state basis and where the cases are in terms of treatment. The question
The question was, should the United States for the first time in history attempt prior restraint publication . Someone who believes he has good civil liberties, my instinct was absolutely not. I looked at what was going to be published. We had what we called tickets. I would not have had clearance for this kind of stuff and thermonuclear weapons and it was going to come out in a magazine. We knew how long it took the french to go from fission diffusion. Fission to fusion. This was an arms important. This was enormously important. Thermonuclear weapons was put out in the open literature. Hear thats whenever i hear that a country has claimed that it has successfully detonated a thermonuclear weapon and you read that our judgment is, no, not really. Im happy about that. Because the level of destruction damaging, ith more makes a difference. In the terms of deterrence theory, i would say not much. Not much. Thank you all very much.

The light to the offers. Unlike the radical turn the gop offers. We want to strengthen and keep the promise of medicare and build on the economic progress we have seen over the past years. I would like to yield my time to the gentlewoman from michigan. Thank you for all the work, the discussion we are all having among ourselves. The budget resolution has many things in it that concerns me. It hurts seniors. It hurts young people. Perhaps most of all, it takes away Economic Opportunities for hardworking families in this country. I am concerned by the assumption that there are some people who dont want to work. In michigan, i know too many people who are looking for jobs and cannot find them, or are working hard just to get ahead working two or three jobs. In michigan, and across the country, people just want the chance to work and the opportunity to earn a fair living. For many years, anyone willing to put in an honest day of work in this country could earn a fair wage. That built the A

What are your thoughts . Call we want to get your thoughts on social media as well on twitter or facebook. Or send us an email. We will get your thoughts in a moment. First, Josh Gerstein is joining us on the phone. Heres your headline what was this memo . Guest this is a white paper that looks like it was derived from some confidential legal opinions that the opinions opinions that the Justice Department wrote that authorized drones or some other Counterterrorism Operations to basically killed u. S. Citizens overseas. And it talks about one set of circumstances. It looks like it is talking specifically about a particular country or type of country or certain type of leaders or terrorist organizations and under what conditions it would be ok to use this type of lethal force.

Clearly the attorney general and Deputy Attorney general and the president knew about it. Fbi director learned about it a short time ago, and bret, this goes back to last year which is really the most surprising part of it. Writing a memorandum for the attorney general, the Deputy Attorney general Rob Rosenstein said as you and i have discusse discussed, talking about Jeff Sessions, i cannot defend the director james comeys handling of the conclusion of the investigation of secretary clintons emails, and i do not understand his refusal to accept the nearly universal judgment that he was mistaken in what he did. Almost everyone agrees the director made serious mistakes. To the substance of what happened, the Deputy Attorney general Rob Rosenstein, writing about comeys handling last year during the Election Campaign of the clinton email issue said the director was wrong to usurp the attorney generals authority on july 5th, 2016.
