Do you and arnie duncan sort of sit down and talk about how you interact and how to change what education means and what continuing education means in the labor front . I would ask the president of conversation. What the president understands, and i think the biggest adjustment we have to do is there are multiple pathways to the prosperity and apprenticeship is one of them. Community college etc. And the workforce innovation and opportunity that is a joint venture between the department of education and the department of labor. But it does is end and that the collaboration between the two agencies. One more quick example weve done a lot of collaboration and redesign in high school for the career Technical Education so the sixyear High School Model that some of you in the audience and twitter may have seen is a remarkable example of how to create pathways to the middle class. At the end of which youve gotten a Frame Associates degree. I went to the academy in chicago and that school is
Leaving. Joining me now is democratic senator of virginia whos also the Vice President of the Senate Intelligence committee. Thanks for being here this morning. Thank you. Let me get your reaction to the resignation a few days ago. What do you make of that. Well, it is a consistent pattern we see of bill barr not acting as attorney general, protecting our whole country. Hes acting for the most part simply as an agent for donald trump and this investigation i feel like has added an odor to it the whole time. I dont know what durham will find or not but i would point out that you know, i wonder if hes going to then investigate the bipartisan Intelligence Committee because we came out 141 with a document in much more detail than mueller aligns the connections between russia and trump. I know its deep in the weeds and complicated but for the American People, in two sentences what are the conclusions of that report . Well, we leave it to the reader to draw their own conclusions but factuall
Year. The prince actually hadnt attended the state opening i dont think since 1996 before last year, though he had attended several before then. So this is the second time that theyve attended as a couple, and they are now arriving at the sovereigns entrance under the victoria tower, and what well see a little later on is charles and camilla seated at the queens side just on the righthand side of the main throne in the ceremonial chairs, the chairs of state which are being brought in for them. So this is a relatively new development that were seeing. A real sense as well, nick, last time, although these obviously are things that we deal with sensitively, that is by the way the duke of norfolk, he is in charge of the really big events of state, including coronations, state funerals, really significant events. He is here today because really hes the organizing mastermind of the state opening. I just mentioned the sensitivity around the understandable process of looking ahead and the fact
U. S. Student loan debt. Later, discussions about Cyber Security and business. Now a Senate Hearing on training firefighters who respond to firefighters. Mark begich questioned officials representing the Forest Service and firefighters about the resources needed with increasing firefighters in Populated Areas. This hearing is an hour. Thank you so much for being here. Its a pleasure to have folks here. This is the subcommittee on Emergency Management intergovernment relations in the District Of Columbia. I apologize. I have a cold so im suffering through a cold. So i appreciate you being here. I want to thank the witnesses to be here especially on short notice to lend their expertise to our discussion. We are here to look at the problems that are serious and concerns to many states for a while now, and thats wildfires. This is a challenge that confronts communities of all towns, villages, cities, states and the federal government. As a former mayor myself i know firsthand how important
Hawk. This years proposal just reversed it and wants to retire the u2 and keep the global hawk. When you flipflop completely within one year it doesnt give you a lot of confidence these poem proposals have been thought out. If you talk to commanders in korea they want to keep them both with the volatile young leader now in charge in the north. But the other reason im not willing to accept many of the administrations proposals is that im not willing that we have to accept that we have to have a smaller military or a smaller role in the world. Most republicans and Many Democrats are not willing to throw up our hands in retreat and resign ourselves to a smaller military and smaller role. Because we know as the United States retreats others will fill that void and those others will not move the world towards greater freedom and greater prosperity. The United States is exceptional and it is exceptional in a way that no other country in the world is. President also accuses republicans of wan
