Along with the director what our options might be as we proceed forward. This is something i would recommend all of the members that they become educated in on a periodic basis. Because this is not the end of Technology Advances and therefore this is not the last challenge were going to be faced with from a technology standpoint. Senator langford. Thank you mr. Chairman and you are right, this is not the last one this is the latest Technology Battle were dealing with. George comey thank you for your work and pass on to the folks that work some very long hours leading up to july the 4th our appreciation for what they did for the nation and the citizens of my state and people around the country. We do appreciate their work very much and you have a terrific team. The challenge we face on this is not only on the Technology Side and dealing with terrorism, it is the benefit gained from this. I would say the folks at opm would be glad that touk about to talk about encryption if they would ha
Disease in virtually all of the countries around the world. I was just impressed as i walked through the poster sessions at aaic how many of the posters were researchers from korea, thailand, china, japan, et cetera, who were coming here to washington to share their knowledge and their perspective on the disease. Its a global disease, for sure. Its not affecting western countries. I want to throw one more question in here which is in terms of having a National Plan and harnessing all of the different groups working on this from the Research Community to big pharma to universities, government, et cetera. Three years ago, the Obama Administration released a National Plan to address alzheimers and the goal was struck me as exceedingly ambitious. By 2025, so in ten years to be able to prevent and effectively treat alzheimers disease. Does that strike you both as realistic . Ten years . The way we look at it its an aspirational goal. We absolutely want to be there by 2025, and i think the e
Want to show you the unedited version of that portion of the phone conversation. You are saying that Us Church Leaders did not know that it was a Sexual Assault against a child. Yeah. The lengthy im just now on the highway here and thats kind of the elders estimate that won the elders when the leadership of the church discovered that he was that it was Sexual Assault on a child that happened the day of the arrest thats when that came out. So yesterday . Yes yesterday he could since ferguson is the head of agape church it was our understanding that when we asked when did Us Church Leaders know, his answer was referring to himself to. The rest of fergusons letter to the congregation this weekend goes on to support that. He wrote i knew she wanted to know when i found out and i had been advised by our lawyer not to discuss that in the press so want to talk about rather than answer her question. Ferguson apologized to his church for the misleading statement but still never answered the que
Come from. I guess secondly, ill just point out real quick again i think laura coates really talked well about the questioning of the attorney general about the lack of africanamericans in this building. I think the leadership shows there is a lack of any such advice by the fact you see his opening remarks where he talks about blackonblack crime and the whole narrative that Police Reform should not be tackled right now because its leading to increased crime. Now, the last time we had a conversation about this after ferguson, you know, jim comey and other people went out and claimed there was something called a ferguson effect. Research showed it was bogus. Were beginning to see that again this year. I think the attorney general could use some challenging on that line of on that thought process as well. What would you like to hear him asked about regarding that . In his opening remarks he talks about how police are risk adverse and as a result theyre essentially not doing their jobs. I
