For a woman to be at the head of the most powerful country in the world, when one of our key allies doesnt allow women to drive, and our most significant enemy at this time, isis, is literally executing women and girls simply for being women and girls, i think this sends a powerful message from the bully pulpit about what america stands for.

Local correctional facility you visited and better than many of the federal facilities, yet youre advising the president on the closure of this facility so he can propose building a new facility here. Does that make any sense . Would it not be better to tell the American People the real story, that its a model detention facility, that the red cross has regular access, dispel the false narrative that some use, rather than close down what is a great facility . I do think its a professionally run and a humanely run facility, and in particular, the servicemen who and women who serve there, face enormous hardship in their service, and they do an outstanding job in running the facility. General kelly did an outstanding job in managing, now admiral tib has taken over that process and they both do an incredible job in maintaining what is a very well run facility. That said, we still think it should be closed. Were going to greg meeks of new york, and then mo brooks of alabama. Thank you, mr. C
Uguay are being asked to shoulder a heavy burden in responsibility, and there are real concerns about the Administration Setting aside intelligence assessments to deceive countries about the threat posed by the militants they are being asked to take in.

The brain worm burrows into the brain of the ant ant and make solution in the brain of the ant just like a physiologist might make a lesion in the brain of an ant and causes the ants to instead of going down into the ground in the heat of the day the ant goes up grass stems to the top where it shouldnt be in the middle of the day and there it becomes vulnerable to being eaten by a sheep which is exactly what the brain worm wants because the brain worms next host after the ant is a sheep. There are lots and lots of examples of parasites manipulating their hosts for their own advantage. I want to regard every one of those changes in the host behavior as an extended phenotype. Finally, a parasite doesnt actually have to live inside its host. Cuckoos and the american equivalent of cuckoos parasitize other birds by laying eggs in the other birds nest in the cuckoo hatches out and i talk about cuckoos, euro
Would the administration give back a naval base . That issue is not on the table would the i dont it could be on our table. Would you object . I dont know the answer to that. Let me go to mr. Smith. We have the act that doesnt allow us to deal with Certain Properties seized by americans. You have travel, credit cards, et cetera. How do you plan to make sure american travellers arent confiscated from americans or otherwise violating the cuban solidarity. That act says you cant provide a loan to further transactions about a confiscated propertiment doesnt say you cant stay at a hotel or does the Credit Card Company extend the loan when you use a credit card to pay for a hotel stay at a confiscated property . A credit card may extend a loan to the traveller. So you are extending a loan to facilitate staying at the hotel, thats in conformity with the act . We have the act replicated in regulations. We will follow to the letter whats in the act because we have with it in our regulations. We
