About a fascinating book. It was a fasting book about a fascinating case, National Federation of independent business is versus sebelius, better known as the obamacare case. As i read this book i thought that i was really watching some very, very smart people who obviously respect each other but youre in no way, shape, or form shy about challenging each other, and they would advance and refine their arguments as the book progressed covering many facets of the obamacare case, some of which they will discuss today. I will introduce all of the speakers anywhere in which they will speak it will start off with trevor burrus. Trevor was the editor of a conspiracy against obamacare.

Down their driving ships around the caribbean trying to do interdictions, but back in 98 i had a chance to do a Diplomatic Mission going into venezuela and colombia. At the time venezuela was very friendly with us and accept this in there. When we pulled into columbia, quite a different situation. Was one of the few towns you could go around in safely. I have had the chance to watch how planned columbia has worked, the partnerships were developed with the colombians.

Mood among a strong the vast majority of russians that the United States is very happy to facilitate russia declined, Energy Diversification away from russia and even Shock Therapy which i do not necessarily agree with.

The permanent subcommittee on investigations will come to order. Today the subcommittee continues our bipartisan work investigating conditions in prisons, jails, and Detention Centers across the United States. I think the Ranking Member for his cooperation. In july we released findings of corruption, abuse and misconduct in the federal prison system and questioned the now former director of the federal bureau of prisons. Today after a 10 month bipartisan investigation we can reveal that despite a clear charge from congress to determine who is dying in prisons and jails across the country, where they are dying and why they are dying that abutment of justice is failing to do so. This failure undermines efforts to address the urgent humanitarian crisis ongoing behind bars across the country. Our investigation has revealed that last year alone, according to gao analysis the department of justice failed to identify at least 990 deaths in custody, nearly one thousand uncounted deaths and the
Like crazy, so it hasnt stopped the seasms crazy, that may be the disturbing word to use in that sentence. Here we are, almost a year from sandy hook, and the gun industry has been very successful at using these terrifying events to propel sales for fear of future crackdown on gun sales. Exactly.
