involvement in the spanish civil war in the late 1930's. >> this coup attempt happened in spain when all over the country, right-wing army officers tried to seize power and in parts of the country succeeded in seizing power in 1936. it sent a shout wave -- shockwave of alarm throughout the world. here was a major company -- country in europe, the right wing military quickly backed by hitler and mussolini who sent arms, airplanes, tanks, tankers and miscellany sent 80,000 ground troops, here was the spanish right making a grab for power and people all over the world felt it out to be resisted. it is not here, where? otherwise we are next. click sunday night at eight eastern and pacific. the leaders of five nordic countries, iceland, norway, sweden, denmark, and finland are in washington, d.c. for meetings with president obama. here is the scene as they arrived at the white house earlier this evening for state dinner. we will bring you more from the dinner later tonight on c-span.

was harry claiborne. we had three impeachments in the 1980's which is interesting because there had not been a single one since the 1930's. by the time we got to the 1980's, they had no personal knowledge of impeachment trials. they had to kind of start with the process from scratch. there are several things they can do with impeachment. the main purpose of impeachment is to remove someone from office, but in the senate can vote to also disqualify that person from serving in any future office, and they often do hold those votes separately so they can convict someone but not squalify them from future service, and that is what the case with hastings, for instance -- he served in the house after being convicted. brian: judge clyburn committed suicide before was all over, years later. the audience did not see the hastings clip. the congressmen now from florida, here is jeff hastings talking about it.

ultimately the house agreed to adopt his amendment. subsequently there were two amendments s -- that democrats said were related to l.g.b.t. that led to them opposing the water bill on the floor. one placed a limitation on the federal government to be able to limit funds to north carolina. as your viewers probably understand, north carolina is involveded in a federal-state tussle over north carolina's reagged -- trgged -- transgender bathroom law. the democrats used that. there was another amendment from representative bradley burns of alabama which appeared to provide a religious freedom exemption to mr. maloney's amendment. so that was also adopted. with those two adopt -- adopted, plus the fact that mr. maloney's was adopted, republicans, many of them came out against the bill and we had 106 republicans only in favor. >> so the final tally, 112-305. that bill went down in the house. so what are you hearing now from house appropriations chair hall rogers and other house republican leaders about how the bill's defeat might impact the appropriations process overall? >> house leadersh

you know you don't have to go back to the beginning of the epublic. go back to the 1990's. after eight years, 23 million new jobs, and incomes went up for everybody, not just those at the top, middle class families, working families, poor families. more people lifted out of poverty than any time in recent history. we were on the right track. we even had a balanced budget and a surplus. we could have paid down the national debt. so what happens? i'll tell you what happens. the republicans came back and slashed taxes on the wealthy, took their eyes off the mortgage and finance markets, and you know what happened. the worst financial crisis since the great recession. and it is true as gavin was saying. there's some video that surfaced where donald trump is actually rooting, rooting for a housing collapse. because he says, well, i'll be able to make a lot of money. con artist. five million homes were lost. a lot of homes right here in california and where i just was in nevada. think of the heart break. think of the suffering and disappointment. we know a lot about donald trump. he ro

in the 1990's. that is not the democratic party of today. that is what i meant when i said we have a lot to talk about in the fall. we will make it our business also to speak truth to power if we think power is strained from the straight and narrow. thank you. >> governor johnson, you have been speaking about this as a hypothetical. now that it is a real thing, can you talk about what this means for the libertarian party in 2015? outside of this building, there are tens of millions of americans that want to understand what libertarian is and means, and in my opinion, this is the best message team going forward to a process that. -- 2:00 push that. accomplish that. gov. weld: those of you who have any familiarity with massachusetts in the 90's will remember that paul cellucci and . ran as a unified team he became the governor right after me. it was a totally unified administration. the lieutenant governor did not have separate staff. there was no issues. everything was done together. very and i talked about this. i think it we are successful, the best way to organize the white house

organization and we work with many other organizations and also n.g.o.'s, about 9% of our funding going through n.g.o.'s. we're not just about money. money counts and is important but we work with our diplomatic colleagues, of which i am one, to get our message out around the world to improve humanitarian care. we work with our allies and we do have allies supporting our efforts. there are people behind me standing in ex-to me in this fight. the european humanitarian organization that is part of the european union, the large european countries such as germany. u.k. i believe is the second largest contributor in the world. canada and australia play large roles. we'd like to see that expand to other countries such as china. the gulf states have made some steps forward in the recent years. we'd like to see them do more. but we use our diplomacy not just to look for more money but also to push for goals and policy changes that will help refugees around the world. e do that in such ways as -- simple ways as pushing countries to keep their borders open so refugees can come in. we also try and get the

going. ms. kenan: there was a question over here. >> steve ck i s t herotocol? the second is, have you received either from capital police or fbi any of the other organizations, notice about having your own or your peer's medical information hacked? and the elephant in the room is casualty. so what about the insurance companies that, to the extent that a lot of their patients get hacked could face a serious, massive class-action suit? and thanks. mr. hurd: the first, the first question, look, the oversight rule of congress to make sure we are providing performance standards rather than trying to bake something in, into a law, is important. because the reality is as soon as we say this is a best practice, it will change in six months. and so we have to create legislation that is flexible and grows with the times. and that is when you talk about performance. what should, what should the outcomes be. i'm not aware of anything dealing with individual members being, their health information being targeted. and the last one? >> liability of ensure -- insurers. ms. kenan: oh, absolutely. i th

tax credit, something my husband started in the 1990's, to steer investment and private enterprise to appalachia. having a good job is about much more than getting a paycheck. it is about dignity and a sense of purpose. i do not want young people to leave home to find those things. i want them to be able to state -- to be able to stay right here in this region, be near their family and friends and learn a great living. the able to give their kids a great life. you should not have to leave home when we are in such a connected world now. let's connect ourselves up, let's get creative. i know we can create a really bright future. and the third part of our plan for revitalizing appalachian communities. investing in education and training. it does not have to be college or university. it could be apprenticeship, community colleges, but it makes a real difference. we're going to make community college free and give all young people -- [applause] sec. clinton: the chance to graduate debt free.

asia, we have surpassed the level of arms transfers from the mid-1980's. china is a relatively small part of this demand. it is making weapons on its own. the market, in terms of who sells what to whom looks much more different in asia than anywhere else on the planet. the united states has a , andnding lead in non-asia i am excluding china from this for a host of reasons. russia has a massive market share compared to the global position. more successful at exporting weapons to some of its neighbors, i would not go so far to say that china is an outstanding exporter of weapons. this might interest only me that 80% of china's arms transfers over the past four years have been to three countries. pakistan, myanmar and bangladesh. adon't think it is coincidence that they all are bordering india. area of states that it imports too. marketer is a climbing. we are at 32%. market share is 34%. so even though we have pivoted to asia as a national security interest, we are so much more or dominant in the middle east as opposed to asia. is puzzling, because the united states should be a w

the late 1990's, which was the last sustain growth and median income we have seen in america for quite some time, from the end of that, what you had was incomes not rising for most americans the way they have been experiencing. and they borrowed more money to keep up their consumption patterns. they were helped a bit by housing bubble. when that burst, the recession was sort of the stopping of the music. you could not borrow as much. they could not -- their incomes started going down instead of stagnating. what we emerged the recession from was a middle-class sort of laid bare as having been in this more precarious position and maybe we have realized in the early 2000's. not great job creation or wealth creation because so much of it had been on paper with housing. people lost a lot of what they had. middle-class homeownership is down after the recession. middle-class stock ownership is down, business ownership is down. notle-class incomes fell just in the recession, but in the recovery in the first couple of years, and have only stabilize over the last couple of years since then. and

medals back like what happened back in the early 1970's with john kerry when he came back from the vietnam war. they did the same, throwing their medals back. and these soldiers in 2012, two of the reporters that came, democracy now was there and did a number of shows on this. but two of the reporters that ent to cover it, the great cinematogophraer who recently died at the age of 93, amazing film maker, and a young reporter named james foley. james foley, who of course is well known to everyone because he ultimately was beheaded by isis. he went back to syria after covering this event, this antinato protest. he was one, jim foley, who deeply believed in hearing eople's voices on the ground that perhaps to -- he covered war to end war. and he felt that the people of syria's voices were not being heard. he had already been held hostage in libya. he came here to cover the peace movement. he went back to cover the people on the ground who were the victims of war. and he ultimately would face the ultimate penalty for what he did. and he was beheaded by isis. his family, i just intervie

workforce in the early 1980's i was paid minimum wage of $3.35. we are asking the young men and women of puerto rico to make just $.90 above that. in fact the last time the minimum wage was this low in the united states was 25 years ago. but in today's dollars, workers haven't had a minimum wage this low since 1940. the young men and women of puerto rico are american citizens, and they don't deserve to be treated like second-class citizens. the workers being affected are not high school students with a summer job. they are young people setting off their careers, many of them struggling to pay student loan payments to become self-sufficient. i am also concerned that there is nothing in this hill that would prevent an employer from laying off older workers the first chance they get just like a good bring cheaper labor. the people of puerto rico are already dealing with an increasing challenging economic environment. lowering the wage with only an insult to this injury and sends aboutong statement whether we value puerto ricans as equal american citizens. during our hearing on this issue, o

territory in the 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, when some republicans did not want to be identified leader andparty lik many democrats did not want to be identified with their party leader. when richard nixon was reelected in 1972, he carried, i think, 389 congressional districts against george mcgovern. half of them voted for democratic congressman. so, the americans are capable of splitting tickets if they want to. in this context, i think turnout is going to be important. we had a surge-increasing surge of turnout during the george w. bush presidency, including the 2006 and 2008, a repudiation of the bush presidency. we have had declining turnout during the obama presidency, particularly of democrats, but not any surge of republican turnout. i have been of the view that the fact of republican turnout was a lot bigger in the primaries this year and caucuses that -- than democratic turnout has, perhaps, some significance for the general election. and others in the 538.com website, for example, have pooh-poohed that and said in 1976 it didn't. i don't think that's relevant. i think, i thin

years, this is what has happened. in the 1950's, we were hardly reliant at all and you see in the lower left corner the minerals from other countries, many of them friendly. many of them, years later in the 1980's, imports beginning with russia and even china and by the year 2014, we are importing minerals, ozens of china, canada and some of them from places in the world where we wished we didn't have to be. the countries who are most stable in the world are the best trading partners. the white house has come off of -- with a report which they give a stability index involving stability, economics, political, what have you and bavelly, the best countries are in green. the most stable. the ones in red are to be avoided if possible, yet if that is the only source of a mineral, like cobalt. closer to home. mainly in the western states. those locations are fixed by their geology. we look at a critical mineral like rare earth elements -- there are's a lot of them but there are deposits. there was only one mine operating in california by the name of mountain pass and the company that ran

. one of the things that israel is will say, and what has been laid plan,s quite a rigorous but what skeptics will say is, look, americans trained forces in iraq and afghanistan, and those forces fell apart. how do we know we will not have a repeat of that? at the end of the day, you just do not know and cannot really trust them. michele: if you look more closely at the american record, to record of training relieve counterterrorism as much or positive, mainly for a couple of reasons. tend to be the best forces available, and you get the best human capital to work with, it is also true that we'll most always sustain the relationship, and we continue working with them. so even in places like iraq and afghanistan, were some aspects of the force have underperformed, the elite units have stayed very professional and have continued to serve very well. i think the key lessons for me are, you have to sustain a relationship over time, not just for training, but to avoid the proliferation of the force. would have been iraq that caused for the visions to fall apart is not lack of training. wha

? i will now turn to tax policy. s as the revenge of the source basis approach to tax, and part of it i think is i get this from what bob stack said because the deal as i understood it coming out of world war ii was in the eternal war of residence and source, the source countries would limit their takes of tax and that has been the u.s. view of the world. it is particularly and dramatically reflected in our treaty policy where we are way beyond the oecd in favoring the countries of residence. what happened is that the country, and we are residence country, failed to do their part of the deal, impose tax on their taxpayers. you could draw a direct line between check the box of that. that is a direct reaction to the check the box rule. they were used aggressively by u.s. taxpayers in ways that got under the skin of a lot of countries. i think it was probably a foreseeable thing that that would happen. i think the problem -- i am like john, have never been inside a corporation -- but the problem is that war between the long and the short views. that would seem to me that taking the short

great our people are. me,s never a surprise to and it's a strategic advantage. you and all our people are the reasons why we have all the friends and allies around the world, and our adversaries don' t. the united states is one of the only countries to prepare and educate our military officers. you have been trained here to be leaders, ethical officers, to uphold our highest standards of honor and integrity. that is what i and the country expect from you. but you were also some of the finest young men and women america has to offer. you are why the united states remains a security partner of choice in the asia-pacific and around the world. and why our circle of allies and partners continues to grow. most important, you are respectful of other people, and the citizens around the world that we partner with an fight with appreciate how you conduct yourselves. learned that you are intimidate, to course, or exclude, but instead that you inspire, cooperate, and include. to draw people in countries the united states, because each of you except your responsibilities with him as the midshipmen

notwithstanding that, the vote kept changing. mr. speaker, from a parliamentary perspective, how s that possible? the speaker pro tempore: the chair will entertain requests for changes. mr. hoyer: i saw no one come to the desk to change their vote, mr. speaker. the speaker pro tempore: does the gentleman have a parliamentary inquiry. mr. hoyer: the inquiry is how can the vote change when no one comes to the well to change heir vote? the speaker pro tempore: the chair had not yet announced request for changes. mr. hoyer: i didn't hear the chair request change, but i do know that from my personal observation not one of those members who apparently changed their vote because it kept changing on the board came to this well and had the courage to change from green to red or red to green. how is that possible, mr. speaker? the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman has not stated a parliamentary inquiry. mr. hoyer: mr. speaker, let me raise another parliamentary inquirery. mr. speaker, let me raise a parliamentary inquirery. mr. speaker -- the speaker pro tempore: the chair will put them engross.

theys to weigh in, wanted present >umed political s who would elect someone electable. that's how we came up with superdelegates. host: and senator sanders is insisting that he will have 50% plus 1% of the pledged delegates, saying that would earn him the right to be the democratic nominee. mark: that's his argument, that's what he says. it is worth pointing out a couple of things, because you've your a lot of discussion out there. it is worth noting, to the extent that folks care about those things, that hillary clinton has a very substantial lead in the popular vote, about 3 million over bernie sanders. in 2008, barack obama won the primary vote by a whisker, but of won the majority superdelegates that put him over the top. sanders' argument is that folks will, would, and should come his way am i and he thinks he can win this on a hot streak, racking new jersey, california, and all the other states, and superdelegates will come floating in his direction. i won't make a prediction whether they will or won't, though -- but let's go back to 2008. clinton won five of the last eight con

you had any experience with this? mr. cox: sir, we believe that the t.s.o.'s that are employed by the federal government, number one, is a professionalized work force. they do a great job. they have been trained to do that. and i think the record speaks very clearly for themselves, since 9/11, we have not had acts of terrorism in this country. we had a privatized work force on 9/11, and we saw what happened. this country was brought to its knees. the government has been taking care of that, been doing that. part of our real problem right now is a lack of staffing, not enough staff to do the work properly. mr. carter: but -- and i understand and i appreciate what you're saying, but at the same time i'm convinced that the private industry can do this just as well with oversight with t.s.a. and save money and improve customer service and decrease the long lines that we are experiencing at our airports. and i don't -- and they go through the same training. t.s.a. still has oversight, the responsibility. i think it's unfair to compare what happened on 9/11 between privatization and being r

's, that meant talking to neighbors and family. today, with more than a billion individuals on facebook, what a person says and does on social media can often give a better insight on who they really are. since 2008, various federal agencies have conducted studies on using social media data in investigations and they all find the same thing, that there is a wealth of important information on social media. this issue now facing the federal government is how to use social media information while respecting the legitimate privacy concerns that are often brought forth. the good news is that using social media checks in security clearance investigations does not have to be a by nairy decision between -- binary decision between big brother and an ineffective system. there are several reason options to us to use social media data in a responsible way. it is encouraging that -- to see that odni announced this morning in advance of today's hearing a new policy that will follow -- will allow federal agencies to review publicly available social media information as part of the clearance i

[applause] we are smarter than this. i will tell you what, george in 1789, he came in and he made a covenant in a building in a church that is called the little church that stood. the reason it is called a little church that stood is because it is the church run across from the world trade center. it is the only building across from the trade center that did not lose all of its windows. in fa

saying and where was he and how come he is just now talking. 1960's, when the people talk like bernie sanders, what happened to them? they ended up being assassinated. look at robert kennedy. look at john kennedy. look at martin luther king. i think bernie is a brave man, i think he is a brilliant man. care. does not he has seen his family, his kids. he is telling the truth about america. we need a change. we need a revolution. it is going to happen. these people who are following hillary saying that she is good for black people or whatever, i am telling you, the clintons have done nothing for black folks except for locking them up. look at the history. hillary called our kids super predators. let's be real. it is time for a change. it is time for everybody. look what we got, donald trump? let's be real. host: that is clifton from oakland, california. let's hear from dan. go ahead. about the calling primary. they are tax funded and i would like to know as far as all of these independence being shut out of the process before the general election. iowa -- dan from iowa. amy: thes

excising of the cancerous tumor, israel. and the several weeks ago, the testing of ballistic missiles, s it had been with jihad missiles, with its emblem of "wipe israel off the map," three weeks ago. what is so disturbing about these, is that they are standing violations of the prohibition against this direct public incitement to genocide, anchored in the genocide convention and international law. in effect, state parties have a responsibility. it is not a policy option to hold the leadership of iran accountable. i want to distinguish it from people and public of iran, who are otherwise the targets of mass domestic repression. similarly, the international community is not addressing that, as well. the second manifestation of genocidal anti-semitism are the covenants and charters and declarations. ammas, the sunni surrogate. am not telling you anything new when you say that hamas own public charter calls for the destruction of israel and the killing of jews, you can find that in article seven. but what is less well known and surprised my colleagues in the canadian parliament, was when i

. >> i have an inquiry. is mr. hanna here? >> yes. >> then why didn't mr. cummings s?ked him the question >> i can say whatever i wanted to say in my opening statement. >> just be fair about it. you can say what you want. >> i wanted to know if he was here. >> mr. rhodes is not here. i would also note that the democrats were free and usually almost always invited democratic witness but there is no democratic witness because you did not invite one. >> you know for fact that we got less than the notice is required in the rules and did not object and went on with the hearing. you know that. >> i disagree with the timing issue. >> you gave us the required time. >> yes. >> i disagree. >> we will sort that out. we have a good working relationship. >> parliamentary inquiry. does the executive privilege applied to media interviews or appearances before congress? >> i do not know the full answer but i believe they are free to talk to whoever they want to in the media but they did claim executive privilege. >> is that a yes or no, does that apply when you are being interviewed by "the new

1930's. in the 1960's it was connected with the new frontier, kennedy. then it became very anti-war. it is now regarded as left of center but not far. [end video clip] brian: does that make you left of center? michael: maybe i look a lot older. i consider myself left of center. many liberal left -- but not extreme left. a lot of people deny that. a lot of people accuse me of being a right-winger in disguise. brian: why? michael: well, i've written a couple of things. i was skeptical of the idea that edward snowden could have the right to publish anything he wanted out of government secrets. it seems to me that the government at some point has to have the last word. and that was a very unpopular position. and i have always been a debt hawk. i think the accumulated debt of the government has to be paid off. that is going to be very difficult. i take the pete peterson view. not terribly original, but i think it is true. the official left position is, where is this inflation you have been talking about? it does not exist. so that also has not contributed to my popularity. brian: how muc

not go to the oscars this year. right.'s j.d.: you really can't see at this point after the people leave this area, they go into a series of rooms that are quite crowded, posing for pictures. smith -- jada smith. smiths this the year obviously caused quite a stir by speaking out about the lack of african-american nominees at the academy awards, and mr. smith was in concussion, a movie that got a lot of critical acclaim, but did not find an audience. he did not get the nomination he wanted. >> has significant politically wouldn't have been -- how significantly would he have been [indiscernible] very, very big deal in hollywood. tonight, cheryl brown eyes and, the african-american head of the motion picture academy is here at the awards. i'm the really, i think started a huge conversation about race in hollywood. and as you know, it has always been a perennial issue. j.d.: he came back to get his picture taken, and they are shutting their names now. snuck in and came back around to have their photos taken.

you i like to expand our k-9 program beyond what we currently have. right now, i pushed k-9's to the largest airports where we're experiencing some of the biggest problems. my plan is to backfill those as we can bring more k-9's on board. i will find out where new orleans is on the priority list. >> i have read and i know about your goal to increase pre-check passengers. one idea that i think that, you know, let me just say off hand, i am opposed to the baggage fees. i think it's abominable. the price of gas has gone down and has been very low for the last year. so, airline ticket prices have remained the same. i think baggage fees is another way to dig into the american people's pockets and make excessive money. but i think it pushes the carry-ons through our security checkpoints. which means our margin of error, if it's 1% or .1%, now that we have millions more bags because airlines are doing their fees, i think at some point i want to just prohibit them. but if we want to push people to pre-check, why don't we just say, anybody who has pre-check, the airlines cannot charge you bag

[applause] larry: mr. mcafee. do we need a minimum wage in a free market? where you are worth a certain amount and you are not getting paid, and you may walk across the street at your free will and get paid what you deserve. it will happen. minimum wages are an illusion. it has nothing to do with whether we are men or women. it has to be what can you do and what is that worth? that is the free market. larry: mr. perry. mr. perry: i have a question for those that support a minimum wage. hopefully it is no one in th
