It is clear that the u. N. Will likely maintain a political presence. They have a critical human rights mop to having role monitoring role, and were seeing right now the centrality of supporting the afghanled voting process. Those are all things that dont cease to be necessary in the wake of any u. S. Drawdown or even eventually, you know, when all troops are, all american troops are out of afghanistan. Because president karzai has not signed the bsa, the president has not made his decisions about what the u. S. Troop presence is going to look like after this year, and i think the u. N. Is waiting to understand that better. Weve seen just with the monstrous taliban attacks that have occurred in the last few weeks mission to all those that preceded those attacks just how precarious the security is, particularly for civilians who are trying to aid the afghan p population. And so that is a challenge. Thank you. Chairman, welcome. And let me ask you, we talk about the fact that we spent a
For workers 55 and older . 4. 7 . Did that improved over last year . Yes. Did you know how that was prerecession . No. Abouten now have more 500,000 jobs since the recession began, while men is that right . Yes. They called it the man session . I still think we have an issue, and i touched on this with the longterm unemployed, and issue with some of the wages that people make, even though they have jobs they are not able to support their families. And one of the ways we know works is education. College degrees make a difference. What is the Unemployment Rate for college is now . See. , lets let me see if i got ok. That is ok, you can give it to me later. I used to always ask this every month to find where we were in relation to here we go, Unemployment Rates for college graduates. 3. 7 . Do you know what it is for high school or people who did not complete high school . 7. 5 for High School Graduates with no college, and 11 for those without a high school diploma. Have there been any t
16,500, 12,000 nurses and pas. The figure is out to 287 unique visitors per provider per year. Think about that. Double it. Say its 500. The average private care physician this country sees, five times that. So when i hear that we need more providers and more money, i just go nuts. Because what we need is exactly what you said, representative coffman, we need leadership. And we need what the Ranking Member from the house said. We need the ability to control those that manage. And if you dont fix the real problems, youll be back here again and the commitment to our veterans will be wasted, and the most important thing is we will have wasted an opportunity to actually make a difference in their lives, which is our commitment to them. So i look forward to working im involved. I issued a report today, and mr. Chairman, i would like a copy of that report to be placed as part of the minutes. Without objection. It paints a dismal picture of the va, and its not just in health care. And if you
Six states, the same six we left you with last night still not able to call those states. Early this morning the president came out and declared that in his the way he viewed it, he had won enough states to win while joe biden came out and said also he believed that he was on the track to a victory but called for patience. He said this is not over until the votes all have been counted. And that is happening right now. Well dig into all these states and take a look where it stands with bill hemmer at the billboard. He is back, too. But first Fox Team Coverage were live in pennsylvania. Jonathan serrie live in atlanta. Peter doocy live in wilmington, delaware. We start with White House Correspondent john rob frerts the north lawn. Did you leave and come back or did you just have another change of clothes . I dont live that far away. Didnt take me long to get a couple hours sleep and get back. Good morning. Was on a Conference Call in the last hour with the Trump Campaign which they tempe
In a world of alternative facts and that he shows no hesitation about leading the country into crisis. We will win, he tweets to the nation and the world one week after an election he plainly and convincingly lost. Were used to lies about crowd size or his support for policies he opposes, but this is different and its dangerous. The president and his team have every right to challenge any result they can prove as fraudulent but one week after election day they have offered no proof, not in pennsylvania, georgia, not any place on the map that shows joe biden is americas president elect. 76 million americans voted for biden. Many of them because they are tired of a president who lies and lies constantly. Leading republicans so far are sproerti supporting the president s refusal to accept the results. Two Senate Runoffs in january both in georgia determine if republicans keep control of the senate. Vice president pence will join the weekly gop lunch today to talk strategy. The president e
