National oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the numbers from the National Academy of sciences and said they really drive me to the judgment that Climate Change is the scientific equivalent of a speeding mack truck. But, madam president , i believe numbers really dont capture this discussion fully because what people really want to know is whats the impact of Climate Change in their community . What does it really mean for them in actually their part of our country . So to get into those impacts, i want to start with one that is really shellacking my home state, and that is these wildfires that are burning longer, getting hotter and starting earlier.

I think they definitely need to do a better job there. I think this is true not just for president obama but everyone of us. Things are complicated. They are more complex than they look on paper. You bring up the payroll tax cut. I thought it was a terrible idea in the context where we are supposed to collect this money to help pay for the retirement of current retirees.

Been i do think there has in messaging problem with obama. He did not do the things he could have

The chair for what purpose does the gentleman rise . Mr. Frelinghuysen i rise to claim time in opposition. The chair the gentleman is recognized. Mr. Frelinghuysen the army has made it clear to the committee that it doesnt want to retain the c23s, the she prmbings as, the work horses that have been doing work for over 30 years or require any replacement platform.

As of july 14 of those had been turned into fort sill turned in to fort sill, oklahoma where they were in semiflyable storage. The remaining aircraft are to be turned in to fort sill by october of this year. Because this amendment only applies to fiscal
Of the white house lying about the timing of when exactly Rex Tillerson was fired and then the white house firing another Senior State Department official thanks guy. Ding. When that guy told the truth about when tillerson actually got canned. I know that im sort of the only person in the media fix saated this but its an intriguing question. Why did the white house go to such lengths to concoct a proven false story about when exactly Rex Tillerson got fired as secretary of state . We still dont know but that false story is why they had to fire that other guy on the way out the door, as well. Then there was David Schulkin and the white house went to some length to concoct a false story about that. In his case at v. A. , administration said that he resigned when in fact David Schulkin didnt resign. He didnt quit. They fired him and the white house has been caught in a lie trying to convince people he quit when he didnt. The number of highlevel departures from the most chaotic president i
