gather for this event but given when's happening here, france exerted extra measures to try to tamp things down and to keep things secure and certainly again the president dining in paris tonight, being able to move about the city is a sign to try to show paris is alive working, at the same time, exerting extra security measures. kate? >> a real statement, thanks so much. let's talk about the stakes at this historic climate change summit and bring in tony decopul. so you have been following this. in terms of climate change summits, put this in perspective for us. what are they hoping to accomplish? >> it's unprecedented. you have 196 countries in the world agreeing that global warming is an issue and virtually all of them pledged to cut the pollution that causes global warming. we have a debate about it. the rest of the sworld gathering in paris and saying, okay, it's settled. >> it is a problem. >> we're coming the table. what makes it an interesting human drama is president obama is trying to lead on the issue. at the opening ceremonies, given three minutes to speak and he went ni

of france again our deepest sympathy. this committee in particular is well aware of the impact of terrorism. our subcommittee on crime is in homeland security and investigations, so i offer it to the people of france and certainly we stand ungtd with them as the justice department through the president of the united states have already been working. to that point i have a headline that says the u.s. justice department working with french authorities after attacks which is a good thing. and i say that because there have been a massive race by various states to make pronouncements of blocking syrian refugees, people seeking asylum and i understand the fear. i hope that we do not operate under fear. but my question is, your confidence in procedures, and i would suggest that there be an interagency task force as i hope that we will have a task force either out of this judiciary committee on paris or either -- i know there's one recommended by the majority that we will have one that is bipartisan on this issue. it would be helpful to the administration. do you feel confident in our pro

, those that are mentally ill and are criminals. as we speak in far away paris, france, 194 countries are gathering in paris to negotiate an international agreement to address climate change. fortunately for the world, president obama's committed to doing something about that climate change, and i send all my appreciation, my accolades to the french people for going ahead with this extremely important conference and not let those terrible acts that occurred stop them from doing so. because of obama's leadership, the united states is taking on a more prominent role, rolling back dangerous carbon emissions, not only from our country but from china, india, brazil and other major sources of climate changing pollution. before the conference in paris even started, more than 170 countries representing over 90% of global carbon emissions made concrete pledges to reduce carbon pollution. climate change is among the most serious problems we face today. what does the pentagon say? what do all the security agencies say the most serious problem facing america today is? climate change. we're beginn

many in france, there was also the fact that they used a normal cell phone sending each other text messages, so it does seem these people are prepared, but the details they really didn't think about it. so it shows that maybe. they carried out attacks in haste and it also shows how easy it is to commit these attacks in europe. >> it surgecertainly does. thank you so much. >>> coming up, we're going to talk about a critical meeting donald trump is having today meeting with black pastors across the country. some of them support him, some do not. some refuse to go. you see all the attention outside of trump tower here in new york as they walked in for that meeting. we're going to have a pastor on who declined an invitation to be there. >>> also chris christie responding to trump's insult a after he picks up a major endorsement from the key state of new hampshire. we'll talk about that. . >>> and the plifolice officer w saved a newborn. this is a a remarkable story you have it to hear the story behind this photo, next. now that we've added an adjustable base, my favorite part is to be

on his way to france. just last month, fbi director comey told this committee that the u.s. refugee vetting process is not adequate to guarantee that syrians referred for resettlement in the u.s. are not terrorists who plan to harm us. yet the president presses on with his plan to resettle at least 10,000 syrian refugees during this fiscal year alone. i look forward to hearing your thoughts on this issue considering that the top counterterrorism investigator in the u.s. consistently states that the databases and law enforcement resources are not available to properly vet syrians. further more, reports indicate that despite repeated congressional action to the contrary this administration thinks terrorists at guantanamo bay who are cut from the same cloth as the paris attackers and many of whom are deemed too dangerous for release to foreign countries should be brought to the united states. transferring these combat tonights to the united states will only increase their odds of being released inside the u.s. these public and national security concerns coupled with unanswered question
