And it starts with copper, the mineral copper. Theres copper in brass. Theres copper in bronze. The Statue Of Liberty is sheathed in a layer of copper. Thats about the thickness of two pennies. Pennies themselves used to be copper, but now theyre just coppercovered zinc, which sort of seems sad. It makes financial sense, because copper over time became too valuable to use in something as cheap as a penny, because most of what we use copper for now is conducting electricity. We use copper for wiring. There is a massive global appetite for copper. And the Worlds Largest producer of copper is an american company. Its a company that used to be based in new orleans but now the Mining Company freeport is based in phoenix, arizona. And the freeport Mining Company of phoenix, arizona, they do still mine copper in arizona and

It is my hope that if you are confirmed and we do make progress on bipartisan criminal Justice Reform that as Attorney General you will carry out whatever legislative decisions might be made by this body. Last let me say in my six years here in addition to not working on a number of bipartisan proposals on criminal Justice Reform you have repeatedly voted against congressional attempts to prohibit torture in the military on text or the interrogation context and to defend enhanced interrogation practices. Are you clear now that our statutes prohibit torture and if the president were to rover yid that clear Legal Authority what actions would you take . On your previous question i would note the federal prison population has already dropped 10 or more percent and will drop

Late today, the Justice Department told them it immediate more time to review the request. The Spokesperson Sean Spicer said the president made the stupid charge. Spicer dodged some of the
