Representative Brendan Boyle democrat of pennsylvania, tell us one thing that has surprised you the most since in washington. [laughter] not toole fortunately much surprised me. I was a state legislator before coming here. Procedures i have been familiar with through the lifestyle. Me has pleasantly surprised is that generally most members i find get along pretty well. I am going against the grain in saying that, but i have relationships on both sides of the aisle. Partisan. To be too generally i would say that people are more constructive than what appears on tv. As people solve more colleagues that coworkers. What translates out to the world is a worst of both sides. [laughter] you talk about the personalities. Into thee went to get capitol complex and get her early in the morning, your here all day. Early in there morning, you are here all day. There is a constant fastpaced and trying to squeeze everything in in a few days. I think that is one of the challenges im hearing in d. C. H
Fundraising he can receive. An outside group can spend millions of dollars were a super wealthy individual can write a check and spend a huge amount of money. That in equity in the system has created a situation where we have the worst of both worlds. It achieves absolutely nothing. And believeterested in fundamental Campaign Finance reform. The only extent which my opinion has changed is that i feel more strongly. Host tell us about your family. When you go home, who do you go home to . ,ow do you balance all of this the legislating and constituent services with the home piece . Rep. Boyle my wife and i have been married for 10 years. We have a beautiful, gorgeous daughter who is 18 months. Year and he has a defined personality. That she already has a defined personality. My dad is still with us fortunately and we spend a lot of time with them. He lives in my district and a neighborhood in philadelphia. We see him quite a bit. As well as my sibling, my brother who is also in politics.
That the same or looked at differently and the role of federal government may be different in them in supporting the states to accomplish these opposed to the state supporting the municipalities and the counties to getting things done.

Its access to health care, affordability of health care, access to education and Higher Education coul. Bill what has surprised you the most since your swearing in . Rep. Coleman my republican colleagues refusing to drop the issues like a womans right to and myopically immigration from the southern border perspective as opposed to internationally. Things of that nature and our refusal to move beyond those issues. Up, i wante we wrap to ask your daytoday routine on capitol hill.

One last question and this is for everyone, with all of this in mind and maybe well start on the right, do you think its worth hosting the world cup . Yes. Why . Not letting you off the hook that easy. Well, i think its very important for a country like russia to get this kind of recognition and thats an important tool. We have been discussing how russia will be playing around but thats our own selfpower toward russia, that we can use that occasion. Its a nice way where we can try to celebrate what we share together with russia and put everyone back at least at the table of the discussion and so and so.

The population will be very much interested in sharing more International Guests and sharing more stories about their own experience in the western world. I think everybody makes sense. Laurie .

M. , wow, so many fake news stories this day, the Fake News Media is out of control. 10 47 a. M. Nbc news is fake news and more dishonest than even cnn. They are a disgrace to good reporting. No wonder their news ratings are way down. 11 18 a. M. The nbc news story has just been t
