medicaid expansion is i think that under obamacare was dishonest accounting because what we did is we expanded it to a lot of new people, maybe 12 million new people, but we paid for it all at the federal government level. really nothing at the federal government level is really paid for. we borrow the money. we re $500 million in the hole. we had trouble funding traditional medicare, medicaid, food stamps, social security before we expanded into obamacare. there isn t enough money for everything. and i think we need to be honest with the american people. if people want medicaid expansion, the most honest ways to say the state should pay for it and the states will have to raise taxes. then people will get a visible trade off. in kentucky, we have 4850,000 new people on medicaid, it should completely be a state function. the federal government shouldn t be expanding it and the state should say, we have to pay the traditional percentage we pay if we want to do this, but the governors tol
the claims than the 17 intelligence agencies. i can go to the election one and talk about that. this is an issue within our politics. we should all be against illegal voting. we have a question when the illegal voting happens. we have convictions on the books. this commission intends to take voting officials which by the way voting is a state function to work with them to make sure that we have less voter fraud. when it comes to the question about russia s hacking in the election. look, nobody has found one example of any interaction or law breaking by the trump campaign. i love to hear that law breaking. how about a russian official they named? this is the investigation in search of a crime. it is time for the american people to get the facts from the fbi. not an answer to my question, but we re out of time. you will be back. that was a big question. it is an important question what the president gives credence to. thank you. bakari, sorry. we re out of time.
intervention side, donald trump has talked about how he talks in almost a neoisolationist way on occasions. i can t explain what s going on. it s not as if there is a governing how i do put this, there s not a governing intelligence over this process right now that says we want people in these lanes for these reasons. it s just happenstance. rex tillerson as possible secretary of state. he s president of his own country, called exxon. a big country. the biggest energy publicly owned energy company, second only to aramco. which is a state function. he knows a lot about the world. through one prism. it is the prism of an energy executive. he knows about russia through the prism of energy. he knows about the arab world through the prism of energy which is fine. he has a lot of global experience, but does he and were
the the sort of reputation of police officers all over the country, not to mention that this is not a state function, and the definition of sanctuary city is really very unclear. some places are not sanctuary cities because of any sort of political leanings but just out of a matter of practicality. do police officers want to be put in a position, for example, where they lock someone up under a detainer coming from i.c.e. only to find out that they have locked someone up improperly and they are sued and then the federal government doesn t indem any if i them for illegally holding someone in their jails. joy, can i just add to that. one of the things that we re finding, too, is overwhelmingly 67% of the latino community, they believe deeply in law enforcement. conversely though, 68% are afraid of racial profiling. when you ve all of a sudden connect the dots between i.c.e. agents and police officers, there is increased violence that just goes unreported.
country. and certainly, the justice department has one problem here is that, you know, what people want is justice. what they want is for officers who have done wrong to be brought up on the charges, but the problem is that that is usually a state function, because it is homicide charges, state law. and federal government oversees the civil rights violations, and again, it is going to take a long time the, a and not the same jurisdiction, and what the justice department is facing is that we have the police departments around the country with severe problems, and everybody seems to be turning to the justice department to try to fikts fix it. what they want is the states and the cities to fix the department departments and take the hint, right? 20 of these the investigations launched, and they want the cities and the states to fix these problems and not to have a small section within the civil rights division to come in and
