senator from kentucky. mr. paul: one of the greatest things about our country is the bill of rights. you know, when we passed the constitution, many people were fearful that if specific rights were not enumerated, they might be be taken away. i think other people said, well, we don't need a bill of rights. who could imagine a time when we would take away the right to trial? who can imagine a time when you wouldn't get a lawyer, or that you could be held indefinitely without a trial? so some people oppose the bill of rights -- opposed the bill of rights and said we don't need this because it's so obvious that no one in their right mind would ever argue that an american citizen or someone apprehended or accused of a crime in the united states would be held without limit, would be sent to a camp in another country and held forever without a trial. none of our founding fathers ever imagined that could happen. and yet, here we are. here we are at a time where just four or five years ago, this body passed a bill that says an forever. citizen can be detained that an american citizen accuse

, make your thoughts on twitter, on facebook as well. kentucky, republican line, you're next. caller: yes, i was born and raised in virginia. i since moved out. but the values that's been done by the young lady at the restaurant owner is not the values that i was at. so i think when you start bringing people in from different parts of the world, which is great, and different part of the country is great, but instead of trying to change things to your values, you should be able to roll into the values of the people there. for example, i don't think this lady is going to last very long in lexington now because of the value of the people that are not going to support that. but this lady, all she's doing is standing up to the rhetoric of maxine waters and the people who want to bring down the people who work for the president. did i 23 years in the military. just the other day, i was called a nazi because i voted for donald trump. so these are the problems we have in this country. it's sad, but hopefully we can work through it before we fall apart. thank you very much. host: republican l

experience, without question. >> eric landis, kentucky. is there a specific focus area or region that the russians are more interested in, in potential aggressive actions like the baltic stakes, latvia, estonia, those areas? or is it more towards -- is there focus more towards syria? >> so if you look at the new units that they have created, the new divisions since 2013, so pre-ukraine is really when the process started. i think it's -- six or seven divisions potentially. most of those are actually located near the ukrainian border. so i would pay less attention to what they're saying but what they're actually doing and putting things. so if you look at the ground forces, one would say that the focus is in the southern military district, and along the borders of ukraine and belarus. so it's a forecasted area of instability, is what i would say that that tells me. in terms of other forces, we haven't seen that kind of revision in terms of the navy or the air forces. i think the airborne forces are due to get quite a bit larger over the next couple of years. but i think that's across ru

florence, kentucky, you disapprove. good morning, go ahead. >> caller: hey, how are you doing? >> good. >> caller: i think that donald trump is one of the most ignorant presidents we've ever had. obviously to me he's the most ignorant because he doesn't even understand trade balance. international trade is not the government spends money and spends too much to china and we're mad about it. american people spend their money at walmart buying chinese goods. the problem with the trade imbalance is we just buy more from china than they buy from us. well, get over it. the international trade system has imbalances in it, but we're doing just fine. why are they picking fights with all our allies and making all these tariffs because donald trump doesn't understand the basics of international trade relationships? he's a complete idiot, and he's running our country in the ditch. the american people, for example, need to know what he's recently done to the solar power industry. north carolina is number two in the nation. i'm from north carolina. i'm just currently in kentucky. north caro

local communities. the service members who serve at kentucky's army installations and in the kentucky air and army national guard are critical to our overall national defense strategy. i'm proud to represent them here in the senate. fort campbell is the home to the 101st airborne division and a number of special operations units. in recent years many of these service members have seen a near constant, constant cycle of deployment to iraq and afghanistan. this ndaa ensures they are not forgotten. fort knox hosts the army human resources command and recruiting command where the ndaa will help modernize office personnel management. and this year's legislation paves the way for new construction projects at both these facilities. in madison county, the bluegrass army depot is responsible for storing and demilitarizing conventional and legacy chemical weapons. it's a top of the line facility integral to our national security, passing this ndaa will help ensure it can continue safe and effective operations. it's my privilege to represent the men and women of the kentucky air and army nationa

senate, i here by appoint the honorable rand paul, a senator from the commonwealth of kentucky, who will perform the duties of the chair. signed: orrin g. hatch, president pro tempore. mr. mcconnell: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. mcconnell: mr. president, my colleagues and i on the agriculture committee will mark up the farm bill today. it's a landmark piece of legislation that will benefit farmers and communities throughout our country. i'll have much more to say on the subject in the days and weeks ahead, particularly when it arrives here on the floor. i'm particularly excited that the legislation being considered today includes provision from the hemp farming act of 23018 of which the -- 2018 of which the occupant of the chair is an original cosponsor which i introduced earlier this year. this will empower farmers to realize the potential for industrial hemp. i thank chairman roberts for his leadership and con frat late him and all of our colleagues on the committee for their bipartisan collaboration and the impressive bill that it has produced. n

are all for them. i suggest the senator, junior senator from kentucky is for all of these amendments, too. if we don't have any of these amendments, then what amendments will we have? and what good does it do to offer an objection to these amendments that have -- that are all germane just because he's upset with some senior sator from another state? i'm thinking now where do we go from here? where we gorom here is i'm going to offer another block of votes as soon as we have some that are all germane and agreed to on both sides. when that happens, i'm hoping there won't be objection i hope we can break this logjam. if not, what's going to happen is we are going to end up voting for this bill. we know it's going to pass. it's passed for 57 consecutive year so it's going to pass, but it will pass without the amendments of those individuals who have wanted an ope amendment process, which i have wanted, which my democrat colleague froe made that effort for a long period of time. so a concerned. i think that it could end up that we will have -- it's not as if we haven't had amendments. i w

memory of a brave kentucky indiana. president trump will posthumously award first liewrnt garland merle connor with our nation's highest military distinction, the medal of honor. in 1941, garland left his farm town in clinton county, kentucky. this quiet 21-year-old enlisted in the army. when he returned after world war ii service that spanned eight major campaigns and earned a battlefield commission, four silver stars, three purple hearts, and the distinguished service cross, he was a hero. lieutenant connor wasn't supposed to be in a snow-covered forest that january morning in 1945. he was meant to be recovering in a hospital, but with his unit in need, he snuck away and returned to the front in france. when he rejoined his comrades, they were in urgent danger, pinned down by six german tanks. lieutenant conner stepped forward. he took a telephone, a radio, and a wire reel and ran toward the enemy alone, totally alone. past the american line, in a ditch barely large enough to cover him, lieutenant conner began directing artillery against the approaching enemy. he held his ground throu

kentucky. earlier this year, i asked secretary perry to take a visit with me to the paducah plant in western kentucky. i was glad he took me up on the offer. secretary perry said that we had a p responsibility to decommission the site. this is an important step to fulfill that step to the community and to the thousands-plus workers dedicated to environmental cleanup. this legislation provides funding for the am laichian regional commission to improve distressed counties in kentucky and the regionped and funds the homestead locks and dams and kentucky locks, this is for the 1,900-plus miles of inland waterways and the 13,000 maritime jobs they support. the reality is this legislation is needed to support communities across our country. energy matters to all americans, water infrastructure matters to all americans. i urge everyone to join me in supporting this bill. now, on another matter, yesterday gallup reported that the percentage of americans satisfied with the way things are going in our country is as high as it has been since 2005. that is nearly a 13-year high. no wonder with a

is just $3.2 billion in u.s. exports, but it comes fr politically sensitive states like kentucky, wisconsin, and florida. the e.u. commissioner for trade cecilia mounstrom said we did not want to be in this position. however, thend unilateral unjustified decision of the u.s. to impose steel and alum pneumonia tariffs on the e.u. means we are left with no other choice. needless to say, if the u.s. removes the tariffed, our measures will ao be removed. the measures from europe are just one arrow aimed at the u.s. in respoe to its ste and alum pneumonia strategy. china in may stood down onn tariffswine, nuts, and fruit as it struck a truce with the u.s., but that's over now. can't takesnch from effect july 1st, and mexico said it would i retalia early july after its elections. president trump has said in this tit for tat trade dispute, any country that fights back with tariffs will just get even more from the u.s. i'm kayla in washington. >>> well, the war of words didn't end today the president threaterned a massive tax on all european car imports, and as p l la bow tells us, that
