Is at loggerheads with the constitutional authorities. The court that allowed the opposition to participate in the elections. Ukrainian units are fighting in sudan on the side of the rebels. Have you noticed that in this list of very highprofile events there are no big players, that is, those who have enough strength, to influence big politics, really no, except for israel and its war with hamas, even though the situation there has not yet been brought under control throughout the country, and the number of dead and wounded on both sides is incredible, all together, it could be a serious signal, a critical mass. Has gathered, the war is going on between everyone and everyone, the factor of force matters again, but the chains of events are long, taking into account the supply chains of weapons and the movement of money in the connected world, now its like this, behind each of the breakthroughs of the smoldering fire are the interests of the americans, and iran and china, ours marked by
Im Francine Lacqua in london. We have a lot to get through today. We have quite a lot of news. Mark carney and Philip Hammond, and we will get on to brexit. First, let me show you your markets. A lot of the movement we saw in the last hour reports to what we heard from the chancellor and the boe governor. I would suggest it is really what is happening in the u. K. That many to look at. 675. Can see the pound, 1. 2 when it says market matrix, it is basically the difference between the two year gilt yield and the 30 year gilt yield. That curve is kind of flat. The u. S. Dollar, pretty much unchanged at 1197. The two year u. S. Yield, 1. 36. Lets get straight to the bloomberg first word news. Fourter barclays and former executives have been charged with conspiracy to commit fraud. The u. K. Fraud office said john varley and roger jenkins, and oth faced charges, along with the bank.

Feel differently about the effectiveness of the office of Inspector General. Attorney general cole asked the office of Legal Council to issue a formal opinion resolving this dispute. I hope the Principle Deputy assistant attorney general Karl Thompson and his team would adhere to the plain text of the statute and to our obvious intent and grant the Inspector General unfettered access to every document in the departments position. If the office of Legal Counsel find ambiguity to hold in place any of them on the Inspector Generals access to information, the house judiciary should be the first to act to correct their mistaken impression. Inspector general horowitz, we welcome and we look forward to your testimony today. And to your assistants legislative response is indeed required. I thank the chairman and yield back. The chair thanks the gentleman. And chair understands that the gentleman from ohio would like to make a brief statement welcoming the Inspector General. I thank the chairma

I believe we have to get away from carbon generators as the primary source of energy in this country, and this is one way that needs to be explored to do that.

The policies my opponent discusses are killing our coal industry, and then he is not supporting things like offshore drilling, the keystone pipeline, and other ways we can have more Affordable Energy. The way you get an economy moving is to have Affordable Energy. Our gas prices have gone up. If you are th
Jump in. Dont be shy. Certainly i think from my little world of this surveillance world where so much trust has been lost, especially for users outside the United States, i think the simple but very meaningful steps would include updating u. S. Surveillance law. Weve got some good vehicles for that. Weve got great vehicles right now for reforming the Electronic Communications privacy act which is one of our domestic surveillance statutes. Get it to be consistent with the standards that most companies are complying with any way in the United States. Statutes are way out of date. The second is addressing the National Security authorities in the United States, u. S. Freedom act is one vehicle that does a nice job of addressing concerns. Particularly issues of bulk surveillance by u. S. Natural security. Those are two very important vehicles that are there ready to be passed and can help reduce the concerns about aggressive u. S.
