The night that i win the emmy. Being on the Supreme Court was an improbable dream. Its hard work and its controversial. Without information, there is no freedom. And its journalists who provide that information. Window rolls down and this guy says, hey, he goes to 11 00. [laughter]. Rick hertzberg, welcome. Great to be here. Nice to see you again, and for no particular reason except just to talk politics, which i love to do. The oh, im ready for that. And especially with you. So lets start with the president. Lets start high up on the chain here. You wrote a book after the 2008 campaign. It was a collection of essays, in fact, published a book called obamanos the birth of a new political era. Has it turned out in the intervening years as you expected it would given your thoughts about him back then . Well not really, no. But of course its traditional among political pundits to say, well theres nothing really surprising about anything thats ever happened because i saw it all so clearly
Those amounts tapering off. Outside right now lots of clouds in place. Low and higher clouds. You still have enough lowlevel moisture to produce the missed and drizzle. Heres a look at the current radar. You will see the sweeps going around trying to detect rainfall. A few showers to the hills and action offshore. Nothing to significant. Here is a little bit of the medium view. More clouds out there. This will be the main story. Especially by the weekend as we have a series of storms setting up out here. We will have a lot of dynamics and moisture to work with. Were talking about excessive rainfall rates. We will track systems all day long through the weekend. And also on our weather app. Were taking a look at the live. You can zoom in. On saturday night we will have a lot of yellow and red showing up offshore. You can customize this app, i can add a marine warning layer. I can close that and there is the warning showing up. If you click on that there is a chance we could have a flood
Do that. I can make any particular specific comments about plans are actually think i think those are the things to look out to better understand whats going on. What i can say, in 2015, employerbased insurance and marketplace insurance were very different when it came to apply the deductible to Prescription Drugs benefits. Employerbased insurance, less than 10 applied. Marketplace insurance, i think the majority of plans may be as much as 70 you have to meet a deductible. For some of the tiers at least before you received Prescription Drug benefits. And so postaca all of you know theres a requirement that you cant discriminate in benefits, and we jointly with sister agencies including the insurance regulators and folks from the Health Department looked at the tiers on the formulary and with help of outside researchers there was a pattern that evolved that certain hiv drugs are classified in the highest out of pocket tiers, and based on that we thought it was discriminatory benefit des
Important. Security Council Resolution is only as strong as the nation states who back it and their willingness to see it through. You know, yesterday and i want to move this question now to assad and putins relationship with assad. Yesterday made a comment, and i quote, refugees undoubtedly need our compassion and support. The only way to resolve the problem is to restore statehood. My question, and ill start with dr. Gavinaw, can we solve this problem as long as assad is barrel bombing his own people, targeting open markets and children . The question before us is can we solve this . One level is obviously the immediate crisis and then the longTerm Solution. As you said, this is no longer a blip. It is a trend. If that trend is there, going back to what senator cardin mentioned earlier, we have to develop a different strategy. This is not just about feeding people for a few weeks. Its about educating, training. In trying to prevent this now, at least getting at the immediate crisis,
About this report is what it shows us is weve got a whole lot more work to do so that we can confront this threat and hopefully we know our committee has come together in a bipartisan fashion but this is an issue that should have no party lines because this is an American Issue were talking about safety to our people and hopefully we can convince the rest of our colleagues to move Forward Together to confront this crisis. Thank you congressman vela. The chair recognizes mr. Hurd from texas. Thank you chairman and Ranking Member thompson, the chairman katko, that was pleasure working alongside of you. I spent almost over nine years as an undercover officer in the cia. I was the guy in the back alleys chasing al qaeda and the taliban and having seen enemies like that up close and personal and seeing what isis has evolved into is scary. There are clear and present danger to the United States and we need to do everything we can to stop them in their tracks. One of the shocking things for m
