Now, this is an issue that this committee has raised repeatedly since isis first began its attacks, and we began calling for airstrikes against isis. So, it has now been two years since president obama dismissed isis as the jv team. Today the administration claims its goal is to degrade and ultimately destroy isis, but it still doesnt have a strategy to get that job done. The tide has not turned in terms of the growing influence of isis. Instead, these fighters on the back of pickup trucks, to use the president s term, have grown into a global force. A force capable of striking in europe, in asia, in africa, and, yes, capable of striking here at home in the United States. There are now, in terms of groups supporting isis, there are 50 isislinked groups on the ground in 21 separate countries. And it is everywhere in cyberspace. And everywhere in cyberspace, it spews that deadly message to kill. Ambassador mcgurk, just back from the front lines with syrian kurds, will note some encouragi
Elementary school teacher. And i want to know where their stance is on the common core and what they want to do with that. Whats most important to me is our national debt, because it is going to effect us teens. And what i find most important is not who you are voting for, because im not endorsing anyone. I want you to just get out to the polls and use your voice, because your vote is your voice. Use it. My number one issue in this campaign is getting big money out of politics. Citizens united needs to be overturned. Until we address that in our politics, Everything Else is just going to keep getting worse and worse. A very small number of people are making decisions about what even comes before the rest of the population. And for that reason, im supporting bernie sanders. I believe that it is every american citizens duty to be politically active and to vote in elections. As a first time voter, im trying to figure out what i like. Im bouncing from candidate to candidate, campaign to ca
We need not entirely abandon our Current System in favor of a fundamentally different system. Limiting deferral and lowering the statutory rate would generally reduce incentives to shift income, eliminate the implicit cost of avoiding repatriation and reduce complexity and uncertainty for firms. Thank you, and i would be happy to answer any questions. Dr. Robinson, thank you. Our final witness, mr. Alan sloan. Chairman wyden how do you do this . Its on. Chairman wyden, Ranking Member hatch, members of the committee, im flattered to be here, and im honored especially pleased to be hitting backup cleanup, which is my normal role in journalism. Before i proceed, i have to say that im speaking for myself alone. Im not speaking for fortune magazine, my employer. Im not speaking for fortunes owner, time, inc. , im not speaking for the Washington Post which has run by material for more than 20 years. I, like senator hatch, am appalled to see that inversions are becoming a partisan wedge issue
There is fighting on the ground and in the hall of power today in iraq. Iraqs president nominating haydr al albadi to be the new Prime Minister. There is a new problem, Nouri Al Maliki is refusing to step down. From iraq. After weeks of deadlock and Islamic State fighters, there is an agreement of a new Prime Minister. But Prime Minister maliki is not going out without a fight. Hes made clear that he will launch a Political Legal challenge against this. Questioning the constitutional basis for not allowing him to form the next government. And the u. S. Has welcomed this move, saying that it believes that this will be a positive step in bringing the country closer together. Other countries as well are welcoming it. And ordinary iraqis are just relieved that there is actually perhaps an end in sight to this political deadlock. On the Ground Fighting continues with Kurdish Forces trying to restay territory that they have lost to the Islamic Group fighters in many parts of the thousand kil
