Thank you, mr. Mcgovern for your leadership and chris smith who has been working on this issue. I rise in remembrance of the horror perpetrated by the Chinese Government 30 years ago today. The heroism of those died in the name of human rights and human dignity. I absolute chairman mcgovern, chairman engel, chris smith, mr. Mccaul and so many others for bringing this resolution forward which ensures that we do not merely remember that dark chapter of history but we record it in the official proceedings of the United States congress. 30 years ago, one million students, workers, citizens, men and women full of passion and idealism peacefully marched for a better future. They raised their own statue of liberty. They dared to dream of the democracy we cherish here in the United States, not necessarily the same kind of democracy, but for a democratic freedom. They stood up for freedom and they only to be cut down by a hail of bullets and a line of tanks. Earlier this year, the tiananmen mot
Antisemitism, hate speech, or threats of violence of any kind. House Speaker Mike Johnson and House Minority leader Hakeem Jeffries also spoke at the ceremony, which was hosted by the United States Holocaust Memorial museum in washington, d. C. Ladies and gentlemen, allan holt, vice chairman of the United States Holocaust Memorial council. Mr. Holt good morning. Every year we begin this ceremony with a tribute to the american soldiers along with our allies who courageously fought germany and collaborators. Every year there are fewer veterans. Our veterans will eventually pass from the scene for the United States Holocaust Memorial will never forget them. We will continue to monitor. In our flags and in our permanent exhibitions. We do all of this to the past and as world war ii recedes in time, its lessons live on. And as we look at the world around us especially on our campuses clearly war lessons are more timely than ever. Our nation, especially our youth, need to understand the dang

And im proud to say and be that among the many voices represented here, the california delegation is the largest and hopefully the loudest. [cheers and applause] there you go. So having grown up in the bay area, i fondly remember those Jewish National fund boxes that we would use to collect donations to plant trees for israel. Years later, when i visited israel for the first time, i saw the fruits of that effort and the israeli ingenuity that has truly made a desert bloom. I soaked in the sights and sounds and smells of j
Last year they were shot directly into the fog. That may be an issue as we go into tonight. As we start out the day, we have the clouds and the fog in San Francisco. Its 56 degrees there and coastal clouds in the peninsula. Its 57. 53 in the north bay. As we head into the afternoon it will be up to 76 degrees. Beautiful weather nice and sunny, warm for the inland areas. Not too hot. Mostly sunny in the north bay and up to 76 degrees as we head into the several days well keep this weather. Well talk about what to expect tonight. Its coming up in the microclimate forecast. Firefighters were kept busy overnight in the east bay fighting a string of small grass fires that eventually merged into one fire. Crews were called to an area in martinez. No word how many acres were burned or whether fireworks could be at the root of the cause. This time of year fire danger is generally high for the fourth of july. Police and fire crews around the bay area illegal fireworks one of the threats to star
Overseas, this time in saudi arabia. A wave of terror puts the world on edge. The deadliest terror tack in iraq in over a year. When a bomb goes off in a Shopping Mall in busy baghdad. What is your feeling about these up particular ticks in at Hillary Clinton, questioned by the fbi over her email server. Is the fbi going to make the right recommendation that you or i or anyone else in the American Public would be indicted by now. Nigel farage is resigning. An explosion shakes central park, leaving a young man with serious injury, a homemade fire work is to blame. We dont flow what happened. The world mourning holocaust survivor, elie wiesel. I dont live in the past. The past lives in me. The flood warnings remain in effect in kansas after heavy storms. It looks like it is going to get worst. A plane crash lands in the middle of a lake. It went down and flipped over all made it out alive. All that are you kidding me. And all that matters. The braves and marlins, first of mlb at an activ
