[laughter] tom never said a word. i return to the legislature determined to learn as much as i could about the realities of governing effectively and the challenges of legislating well. when i finally ran for congress, he was majority leader of the house. as i arrived for his first term in 1989, tom was about to become speaker. i know now that he was about to become the last speaker of the whole house. he believed that the speaker was the speaker for the whole house and he lived that to his very core. today, many will note tom's devotion to the house of representatives and his knowledge of the history of this organization. you learn in enormous amounts and he appreciated the role of the house and our balanced structure of government and he knew well the challenge of maintaining that fragile balance. when he assumed his speakership, he brought to it a scholars depth of understanding and a disciple's passion. he led the house with fairness and a style of leadership we have not seen and we have recently looked for, but h

i think tourists still come to tom when they need help base wear written up in tour guides. we continue to a provided exemplar dental services for those who are fengd that hiv and we continue to a have this beautiful space downstairs have a strong commitment to provide services in your offer 15 community sites. we have a wonderful office space o pet treatment program that brings recovery right into the preliminary care setting pr we are ahead of the curtain with community based primary care hepatitis care treatment and ahead of the hiv care and we co- run a center of the obsolesce in the tenderloin. through josh about 12 years ago we started or josh started the first medication adherence program for people who are homeless or mentally ill and many people were written off because they were thought two disorganized to manage it and we said no, we, take care of those people and help them and that program continues (clapping) we've had integrated prim care and behavioral health before president obama thought about that. we have our psychiatry services. and our transgenders tuesd

tom believed in that rule. and he practiced it from the day he came to the house and all during his time as speaker of the house. tom foley was proud to be a member of this house. i share that deep pride in this great institution and i guess that is one reason we were able to work together. we both saw the house of representatives not as a necessary evil but as one of the great creations of a free people. on our last days in congress on november 29, 1994, tom did me the great honor of inviting me to the speaker's podium to preside over the house while he gave his remarks from the well. incidentally, that was the first time in 40 years a republican had been on that roster. when we stood side by side at the podium on that last day of the 103rd congress, we knew we were icons of a bygone era. as we visited for the last time 20 years later, i think we felt good about that. we both took great pride in knowing we had made things happen that we found good ways to solve difficult problems and make the house a working i

roslyn, let's pick up on tom's passion. he told me a couple points that are important, that is the consciousness awareness, this growing consciousness around bullying. and it's a question i guess that requires, has bullying gotten worse or have we gotten better to begin to recognize it? >> hard to know. tom and the president refer to as far too often as a rite of passage. we certainly are seeing evidence in ways that i don't recall, the levels of violence, the vitriolic violence, it's not just coming from the back of the school, it's coming at home, social media, you are inundated with it, the effects of it. we also certainly there's been an evolution of what we should tolerate. for me, for example, very early on in the administration i had the privilege of meeting with carl hoover walker's mother. he would have been 11 years old on the day that we were meeting. this was in the spring of 2009. and as she was leaving and she was talking about his death and he was one of the earliest stories that we had heard about a young pe

tom knew that. he practiced it. he took flak from time to time for being a little too friendly with republicans but i don't think he ever doubted the wisdom of his approach, even in defeat. as he often said, the first vote you need to earn is your own. it was a principle that served him very well. it is one that i think says a lot about the legacy of the gentleman from spokane. we honor his service and his memory. may we draw all of the right lessons from both. [applause] >> for four years i served in the house with speaker tom foley during the time i served, he was the majority with. -- whip. i also served with the man who would succeed him, newt gingrich. we do not agree on too much, but when he wrote in last week's "time" magazine that tom foley was a pragmatic man, a person of great integrity, and a patriot, i could not agree more. this is what he wrote, and i quote. i have nothing a phone -- but fond memories. we worked together when we could, competed when we had to. i, too, have fond memories of my time servi

the reason for the letter was after our first meeting about this when ron tom was there and ron tom said i've approved this before and he met with the architect and owner after that and they set up 0 time yesterday and as part of that meeting ron tom quid them to draw up another request and submit a letter for that meeting. that's why it was yes, i do. but i did notice a change from the windows to the doors >> it was pointed out to you. >> no i don't think anybody realizeed but certainly i noticed the change. i did speak to the gentleman at dbi about this and we discussed the exiting about 9:30 or tengs this morning but this - i did tell him dbi agreed about the exit and they spoke with mr. ron tom yes, i do after speaking with me >> mr. t may i ask you to sit down until your called. >> you said i believe that from what you could see those changes wouldn't trigger any changes from the street and that's your criteria; right? >> the only physical change is rome one door opening basically at the top landing area to the small door to the right you would remove that door and taking a site of

district 6 came to my office and said there was one place i had to visit immediately and that's the tom o'dell clinic. they came every week into my office wanting to know that. i want to say they're here in the audience they're not the easiest to pleas of our constituents and trust me they come into the office to let me know what i'm doing right and wrong by the one thing that praises us is the tom o'dell clinic. when i went to meet the staff and i got to meet the board that included many of our constituents i saw how much they loved the space. those are not the easiest to please but they know their loved and cared for and a place with integrity and respect. i mentioned this a couple months ago when i came to the affordable housing program an amazing youth space here in the tenderloin. but when i spinster a night in one of the homeless shelters homelessness is not just an economic issue we treat homelessness as a economic issue we talk about job creation and housing and food. what became clear is homeless is a public health issue. that people have homeless not only because of the econom

i'm sorry tom i missed that. there are things that are you suggesting that the government should be hiring vets the way they're on roosevelt did i'm suggesting that this president didn't keep his promise about jobs jobs jobs all he did was put up more roadblocks that keep the private sector from creating jobs and this has hurt our veterans as well as many others all those jobs those pieces of jobs legislation that nancy pelosi passed out of the house are that there are democrats i think i think the job. of conservatives unfortunately that even president obama said that he's trying to get better and work for is at wal-mart i mean these are the jobs that we we think the veterans deserve here unfortunately and that's a sad state look on veterans day you want to honor veterans in two ways by making sure we're providing for all their needs and by also making sure we're not creating more veterans with more military misadventures in the u.s. wars of aggression around the world unfortunate we're not doing either of those

tom perez is my second favorite department of justice official. we are very honored today that tom perez has come from washington, dc, to give welcoming remarks here at this summit. tom perez is the assistant attorney general of the civil rights division in washington, dc, he was nominated for that position by president obama and sworn in in october of 2009 and we are all the lucky -- we are all very lucky that that happened in october of 2009. tom has spent his entire career in public service and on protecting the civil rights of our most vulnerable people. tom actually joined the civil rights division as a young lawyer and while he was there he prosecuted some of the most significant cases in the country. lawyers in the civil rights division get fanned out to places in the country to handle cases in mississippi and alabama and california and all over and tom was one of those people. he was sent to texas to handle a very significant hate crime case when he was a young lawyer that involved a gang of white supremacists that went on a killing spree

and then finally, last week senator cruz met with tom wheeler, and tom -- privately -- and tom wheeler assured senator cruz that implementing the requirements of the disclose act is, quote, not a priority for the fcc. that assuaged senator cruz's concerns. he lifted the hold, and tom wheeler was promptly confirmed be i the senate. >> sam gustin, what about the issue of media ownership? is that going to come up in the next several months at the fcc? >> guest: that will definitely come up. for many years media concentration has been a major issue for the fcc. there was a lot of criticism about comcast's purchase of nbc universal which, essentially, come wined the largest cable -- combined the largest cable company in the united states with one of the crown jewels of the american media business, nbc universal, the peacock network, the movie studio, etc. so there was a lot of criticism about that. there are also rules regarding media ownership in cities around the country. so, for example, in places like new york or los angeles or other big media markets, there are rules that prohibit big

the two guys named tom, are actually tom turkey. here is the fight. >> two tom turkeys fighting for domination. >> i don't see this as so much a fight as a tango. >> it's kind of like weird arm wrestling but with their neck. >> two details are fighting for the dominance, for the -- here you see them enjoining glasses and weeds. four men, four boys, all of it, stupid fighting over a women while the women are enjoying their life. >> i love this guy. he's giving us life commentary. deep thought. this guy is incredible. >> wow. beautiful, i have never seen turkeys fight. >> they make their way back over. >> to like, break it up, guys stop it? >> they continue to ignore them. >> do you guys want to join in or don't want to ex-spend your initial. >> there were three females and only two of them. >> good odded. >> i love how the girls aren't fighting for each other for only two guys. logical thing, one of the girls would have to go. >> the girls know they're too tired to do anything. no word on who won. >> probably still fighting. >> yeah.

tom, let's continue on that note. if i was coming out from either a treatment program or a therapeutic community, or even if i was in a mutual support group, but i felt that, you know, that one hour, even once a day or whatever, was not really connecting me, what would a peer support program provide for me? well, it's a good question. and first of all, you know, we always tell peers they're not counselors, so they don't give advice, they don't diagnose, but they're also not 12 step sponsors, and i think that's an important distinction. but a peer-to-peer experience, as someone's entering the community from whatever-a treatment or institution-the peer will help them have a soft landing and provide them with community resources, such as? community connection- -well, housing, education, employment, venues to that, maybe it may be something like childcare. it could be instrumental, it could be emotional, it could be educational, or it could be what we call affiliational. so, affiliation means connection to family, communi

tom's absolutely right. i was part of the team that actually responded to the capitol when those two officers officer chestnut and officer gibson were killed by an armed gunman as he enter the capitol building itself. so absolutely. there's officers manning those checkpoints extremely vulnerable, wolf. >> and why aren't they armed? >> well, the tsa, you know, i this i their main mission is operating the checkpoints looking for -- you know the screening of passengers and you have law enforcement in this particular case, you've got the airport police there at l.a.x. that they are behind them usually in the secure area. but i'm sure that's something, again, after incidents like this that they will review and maybe change the policy and have more additional armed officers on the other side of the checkpoint. so i'm sure you know, we have instances like this, law enforcement takes a close look, okay, what can we do to be more proactive than reactive to active shooters and such. >> let me bring deborah feyerick, i

tom thanks for having me back so catherine you know it's going to. i was just going to tell you if you're fired up about the kind of corporate practices you were just describing you're going to be really upset about what i have to tell you today ok that's that you know these aren't just abuses of privilege these company behaviors are actually at the core of what's holding our economy back increasing inequality across the board and depressing the consumer spending that would be in you know another circumstance have us thriving with more jobs and more to go around for everyone so care through your news story for the most suggests that it would be really easy for a big company like wal-mart to start offering its workers a living wage what could they do right now to give their workers for example a five dollars eighty three seven hour raise which many suggest would take people to you know the upper edge of poverty tour to a reasonable living starting. that's the workers that are speaking out against wal-mart are calling for a wage equivalent to twenty fi

tom brady with one more shot. >> al: talib playing with a strained hip. all over thomas all night long as colquitt's kick, they put the rush on that time. takes a good denver hop but it eats more clock as well on its way down the sideline. they'll spot the ball at the 11 yard line. 28 seconds remaining. afc playoff picture right now, of course a lot depends on what's going to happen here. denver either goes to 10-1 or 9-2. right now kc and tennessee would be in the wild card spot despite a 5-6 record. pittsburgh, baltimore, san diego, the jets and miami all in the hunt. >> cris: if new england were to win out, they would be the number two seed at least. that would be the worst they could do. so they control their fate here. this is a dangerous round. you think back to the super bowl in this situation in tom brady's first year, some very safe passes, maybe a little screen something, see if it gets going. >> al: here's edelman and he will pick up a yard, maybe two. that takes six seconds off the clock. and we look like we're very much headed for overtime. >

>> tom said it well, before and after. i can't put the death of john f. kennedy and the autopsy pictures and the tabs running now with the life he led right up until the bullets. i wrote my book blinding myself on purpose to what happened to him so i could write about his life. what i worked on certainly was a playboy. all these things, totally true. but i tried to work on the working politician who was trying to get something good done for the country. that one part of it was truly idealistic. he was trying to figure out the politics in texas. do you want to know why the daily press was so important in dallas, why was ft. worth still a yellow dog democrat? he's studying these questions and trying to get answers like tip o'neill, trying to get things out. he needed taxes, he needed georgia, probably. just a couple weeks before he got killed, he's on the phone with dick daley trying to not be too perfect on the civil rights bill. he was working in philly to try to get the vote there. he was really a working politician, as you said, delayed with civil right
