they owned the press and the academia and bit the centrism and liberalism and they did not feel they needed to build up a counter establishment and charles koch wanted to take it over so we pulled up his own craft and academia and all of these organizations. maybe if the democrats feel endangered enough they will do the same. >> anything else? yes. >> [inaudible] there is a report that there are additional recordings of the torture sessions and tylan that gina was not able to destroy and they said something is that what you've heard as well? do you think those tapes will ever see the light of day? >> i don't know about it but it does not surprise me as a possibility because they recorded everything. one of the things i cannot believe what i was doing the book was in the beginning anyway was it was so meticulous and deliberate and it was there were scientists and doctors and psychologists measuring to make sure that when the water boarded people they measured their oxygen levels so that they did not die but they go right up to the edge of dying and it would not surprise me if there we

so he built up his own academia and all of these organizations. maybe if the democrats feel endangered enough they would do the same. there are additional recordings. is that something you've heard as well. do you think they will ever see the light of day. i don't know about it. it doesn't surprise me as a possibility. because they reported everything. it was so meticulous in deliberate and there were scientists and doctors psychologist measuring to make sure that when they waterboarding people they measured their oxygen level so they didn't die. it wouldn't surprise me if there were other records i don't know if there are more videotapes or not. most of these people were on. there is some examples of people trying to destroy the video. water boarded 88 times. they can be incompetent when it comes to that. thank you so much. in terms of your contact we hear a lot about accusations made. in terms of your contacts with people who had worked in the state department or cia or career people how are these people doing. i think at the morale is just terr

our country that have specific expertise and cutting-edge technology that have prominent positions in academia and then they recruit them for projects on china or the chinese government and often times we don't have an understanding of what that program was or whether there was a quid pro quo. >> if they have a robust engineering program we have a lot of international researchers coming in and working in partnership with the university. we have the researcher engineer from china working on some stuff and he goes back to china maybe someone from maryland follows him back. i don't know. what the university be in jeopardy that they wouldn't be able to see the future federally funded research dollars? >> if that individual applied for the grant, the educational grant, they would have to certify whether or not they have participatehadparticipated in ae program in the past and from there they can decide. is that person to us-based researcher working with the chinese researcher? >> it's a us-based person as a part of their program. >> not to pummel a dead horse here but that is a problem the certific

and once you get all the academia behind you, it still comes down to who are those who are less fortunate that we need to give more concern to? and that's where we are. and i'm hopeful that eventually that we can get there because they are the ones who wake up tomorrow with nothing on the table. and i yield back, mr. chairman. >> are there other amendments to title iv? well, everybody had a five-minute bite at the apple. are there other amendments? recognize mr. walsh for five minutes. >> that's why i'm going to yield to one of those smart people, mr. mcgovern. >> i thank the gentleman for yielding. i'm amazed at how this markup has evolved. in the beginning, my friends on the other side were talking about how these provisions were the greatest thing since slice bread. they were wonderful and then mr. davis basically said don't pay attention to what's in the bill. you may think it's bad but this is the beginning of a process. it will change and change and maybe get better. here is a radical idea. why don't we start off with the very best product we can? rather than something that nobody k

that came from government, academia, business, working together for how it evolves. i think you see the same thing in ai. reporter: today a select committee at the white house was formed across government agencies. the head of r&d for those government agencies to figure out how to use artificial intelligence better. the head of the white house science and technology office said this will increase productivity. artificial intelligence will help in health care and possibly save lives. it will mean displacement and some job losses. on that front industry leaders want to see the white house and this administration put money forward for training. already the trump administration has put in $200 million per year for stem and computer science training. the industry come on top and behind that added $300 million a year for that. with all the privacy concerns mostly at the white house they're concerned with the loss of possibly non-tech jobs. melissa. melissa: he wardlaw recognize, thank you for that. david: tensions escalating between israel and iran to say the least. is the

deep—seated prejudices and stereotypes are preventing ethnic minority staff from gaining senior positions in academia. baroness amos, who's director of the school of oriental and african studies is with me now. could you outlined the scale of the problem is you see it? it is a huge challenge. less than 1% of our professors, from lack and minority ethnic backgrounds. that is a very low number. we are seeing increasing numbers of young people from this committee is going to university, we are seeing two trends. 0ne committee is going to university, we are seeing two trends. one is a high dropout rate and a lot of universities are trying to do something about that. we are also seeing, even when you make sure that you standardise intensive entry qualifications and so one, black and minority ethnic students leaving university with fewer firsts and upper seconds, for example. clearly a cultural issue that we have to deal with. could a cultural issue that we have to dealwith. could you put a cultural issue that we have to deal with. could you put your finger on what that issue is? why is there that problem?

of a maturity level that should be of a college age when it comes to whether it's emotion or academ academia, their intelligence. safe spaces are a disgusting idea to try to take students that are in their formative years to go from high school to adulthood and be putting them in an area where it's ok if you get offended by ideas. the real world is not like that. >> bill: how many schools have you spoken at? >> oh, a couple dozen in the past year. everywhere from northern california to miami to virginia and texas. all across the country. >> bill: very interesting. thanks for coming on, ok? make campus great again. i think there's something to that slogan. thank you, lauren, for coming on today. >> thanks for having me. >> julie: the time and the place are set. what else do we know about next month's summit between president trump and kim jong un? details straight ahead. kage was making me feel like i couldn't spend time with my grandson. now depend fit-flex has their fastest absorbing material inside, so it keeps me dry and protected. go to depend.com - get a coupon and try them for yourself

almost everybody i have talked to -- democrats, republicans, people in industry, people in academia -- they say this is years away. what i think a lot of these companies are looking for is two things. the first is standards, how good does the ai need to be? what does it need to do? the other thing they are looking for is to understand the current regulatory environment. spencer mentioned health care, things like hipaa, the health care privacy law, how is that going to apply if ai is making decisions about your health or aiding in a diagnostic? i think what the industry wants to know is how exactly to think about those issues before they look at any kind of new, broad-based ai regulation act. emily: you know so much about how much these companies are lobbying congress, what they're asking for, and what kind of money they are spending. talk to us about how lobbying efforts have changed or evolved over the last year under the trump administration. ben: i think you see this interesting aspect of lobbying in the trump administration. there are a lot of people who go straight to the white h

i do think that we have become a little more closed minded in academia than we were in the past. that is probably not the students. students are always -- they always think they have the truth. look at the three of us, we are bald. it means we went to school during the vietnam war times. you are a little younger, ben, sorry. terrence: don't get him mad. ben: class of 68. edward: there was no more tumultuous time than that. the difference was where we thought we knew everything, there were people that pushed back. that was true among the faculty, among the media, and intelligentsia. i think right now, the one thing i would say we have to worry about is that those other three groups are not pushing back perhaps as hard as they should. terrence: thank you. mr. secretary, then mr. chairman. henry: i think, if we are optimistic, it has to come from the young people. all the issues we talked about today were about whether it is the national debt or whether it is our political system, or some of the issues we didn't talk about like climate change and environmental risks. these are gener

i love academia. no plans to consider coming here? i have no plans. but you are not ruling it out. look, all ican you are not ruling it out. look, all i can say is i am very happy with my currentjob. later today president trump's business team, led by us treasury secretary steven mnuchin, will host the vice premier of china, liu he, for trade talks in washington. it is the second round of talks aimed at heading off a damaging trade war between the two sides following their meetings in beijing two weeks ago. the us has threatened to impose punitive tariffs on up to $150 billion in chinese goods, demanding a rebalancing of their trading relationship. the bbc‘s robin brant reports from dongguan, in southern china, which could be hit hard. if the trade war comes, this is where china will feel it — really feel it. dongguan is near the south coast, a place once dubbed the workshop of the world. in this factory, oil, lubrication, is everywhere. the smell of it is in the air, the feel of it under your feet. they make precision metal parts here, and they reckon up to 300 could be hit by

mike with george mason university and former journalist and now in academia, doing research on college sports. first, i want to emphasize that nobody has a license on someone's ability, right? in terms of somebody being good or bad, you know? that depends on -- we don't know, right? so i want to say, having said that, the system that the soccer leagues in britain used is being used in this country in amateur leagues and stuff, and i think that could be something we could look at as a way to sort of, you know, get young people, you know -- that our college players playing in the summer in leagues that don't get paid much but it is guiding them in the right direction to be professionals. so maybe something like that could be formed in the different sports. i know it's difficult for football, but, you know, in the different sports. i just wanted to share that. >> great, thank you. other questions? yep, in the back. over here, we've got a question. >> thanks for doing this. my name is michael pointer. i was a sports writer for more than 20 years primarily at the indianapolis star, covered

we are at that point with the ncaa, with the general public, with academia, with the sports world in general that we are at that point. now, you can't just make statements. yet to go for the details. >> right here in the front. >> andy, either question for you. the ncaa is a cartel, economic cartel. why i did not leading the charge to go to create, to take advantage of the financial opportunity. that seems to be out there. based on just j. d. with these super athletes where there's another, this whole economic opportunity. >> i think that's a good question. a couple things can use fax it came out in public in court. clc which is now called img college, a licensee group that focuses on college figured there was $1 billion of lost individual name image and likeness or joint team individual name and like a silly thing left on the table. this was in 2004 that on team stuff the nfl and nba combine is equal to what the ncaa does on team stuff. on individual stuff that was basically one thing dollars ahead. individuals are not worth as much. five of them it is a lot of money. why did that o

committee that encompasses diverse representation from law enforcement, civil rights organizations and academia. we held a series of meetings to hear perspectives from hate crime survivors, academic experts, national and grassroots advocacy leaders and law enforcement officials on barriers and best practices to combat hate. end product will be a summary report out lining critical issues detailing discussions from the advisory group, will be released between this summer and early fall of 2018. it is very comprehensive document. that we will clearly make available to this committee. today i would like to focus on some of the challenges law enforcement faces when it comes to hate crimes. underreporting of hate crime statistics as you heard from the last two presenters. over the years one of the greatest barriers confronting overcoming hate violence has been the lack of statistical data on the occurrence and nature of these crimes. participation in the fbi's national reporting system which like the rest of the ucr, uniform crime reporting program, is voluntary. while participation has increased ove

in the west in the halls of government academia and the media which will echo they continually talk about russia and sometimes china as revisionist or revanche just powers against they don't there's two different world orders we're talking about they refer to the liberal world order not to the un stablished world order they're talking about the world order that they believe started with bretton woods and continued up through the collapse of the soviet union and came to its biggest height of union polarity of u.s. led western hegemony during the one nine hundred ninety s. and what they're talking about is russia and china returning to positions of great power status in the world are blocking their control of the world whereas russia and china and i'm not going to stand for it k.k. from a realist perspective and of course from a relativist position of weakness little to the us prefer the rules bound system in one thousand nine hundred five established by the un. whereas the us regards the principle un prince of the security council principles un charter principles of sovereignty and non int

again, it's frustrating, steve, to see the mainstream media and others in academia now as well, take that hamas narrative and run with it at the end of the day, there is not much that separates hamas from isis over the past several years. hamas has fired rockets, missiles at israel suicide bombings, terror tunnels and all the rest. steve: i know it still, each the parents have reached out. nothing from the principal. eric, thank you very much for joining us live. >> thank you, steve. steve: going to step aside. jonathan turley coming up next. non-small cell lung canc . .non-small cell lung canc who'd say no to a...? who wouldn't want a chance to live longer. opdivo (nivolumab). over 40,000 patients have been prescribed opdivo immunotherapy. opdivo can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in your body and affect how they work. this may happen during or after treatment has ended, and may become serious and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you experience new or worsening cough; chest pain; shortness of breath; diarrhea; severe stomach pain or tenderne

pete: doctor, we cover a lot of crazy stories about academia. great to cover a good one like this. you are a veteran. probably aren't many college veterans who are vets how much of your own background colors your decision here. >> i was a soldier in the gulf war and after that have been connected to the department of defense ever since. i have done research. psychologist by training. done research over the years on veterans issues. i started the national center for veterans studies at the university of utah. so i have been connected and sensitive and aware of veterans issues from the very beginning of my career. and we have been attentive to veterans' challenges. as you know, we have been at war for quite a number of years now. so we feel like we need to do a part -- we need to do some of the lift and we need to help. pete: good on you doctor, for students and parents watching where can they go to get more information. go to the university of memphis. go to our web paige memphis.edu. number of connection. we will help you. we will assist those students and connect them to the right

individual businesses, industries as a whole, academia, government, we all have a role to play in moving the needle forward. and one critical area where i see government playing a critical role is what i call a convener of conversations. and that is to bring people around the table and put the important issues and needs on the table with the right people so that we can have an open dialogue to ensure that the needs of tomorrow are being addressed by our schools and our education system so we can prepare for that workforce. and it's important in doing so that we break those silos down so that we can have good important conversations. and there is no easy fix there is sometimes communication and language differences. but it's really important to have those conversations. and to use a term that i heard this morning, that's stefani pashman used from the allegheny conference, it's the information gap. how do we ensure that we're fulfilling that information gap and making sure that those conversations exist? and i'll tell you, in the conversations that we had in new york city government, it's

i spent five years in academia uncertain about what it could be leading me and when i returned to mexico city five years later, it seems to me that mexico city environmental issues have only increased in my absence. i personally experienced a week without water on my apartment so it was really like shocking that such a city of mexico is having this huge problem and we need to address them. i had a much knowledge but little practice so i decided it was time to set out my own to solve solutions with the growing need in mexico city that is to address the food waste. organic waste management, especially in the mega cities like mexico city is carrying many logistical challenges and a lot of environmental impacts. particularly because people took enough care doing a good sorting of the waste and there's not a secondary market he on organic waste precisely so there's were my years in banking so i took my study on financial background and began thinking about how to create a economy in in order to reduce waste impact. i started with the two amazing partners to focus on assistance and in the city

[applause] >> who's a leader you admire in business or philanthropy or academia? >> i worked for a great ceo al-awlaki's martin in bob stephens who came from the humblest of circumstances, was a marine in vietnam who got his first job helping build aircraft and grew up to be the ceo of lockheed martin and never lost that ability to connect to people and to try to get the truth from them. so i admire him a lot. i'll stop there. and k select off the list, i was going to say you next. [laughing] did bill clinton's meeting with loretta lynch influence your decision to hold a press conference in the summer of 16? >> yes. it was the meeting in conjunction with loretta who i like very much and not a long time. the writers to seek to announce that she recuse herself but would accept my recommendation and that of the career prosecutors. at that point i decided as much as i like loretta, this result will not have credibility with the american people if i announce it standing next to her. and so never thought i would be, never thought of this as a 500 your flood. ever though

law enforcement, academia we could go down the list, science. as general hayden said, all of the fact-based institution this is country has built its foundation on over the past several centuries. and i wonder if you do have to be a psychiatrist to figure out that that's donald trumps intent. >> i don't know if you have to be a psychiatrist or just a political analyst. he is going for the jugular. he's fighting as hard as he can to save himself and his presidency and he's attacking targets that let's be honest the public has had some suspicion for. the idea that there's a cabal of elitists in washington, that's something americans have felt for a couple centuries, this suspicion toward washington and central pow er. it's the cynical way that it's being exploited that i find disturbing. we depend on these agencies for our security as a country and bashing them everyday the way the president does causes harm. and to bash the news media -- it was only a decade or so that the arrival of cnn to cover a demonstration or protest in eastern europe and g

general hayden said the intel community like law enforcement officers, like people in journalism, like academia, the one thing they have in common that donald trump is attacking is they are fact-based. they don't always get the facts right but they are driven by facts and that is something that obviously doesn't play in donald trump's benefit so he has to attack. do you agree with general hayden's assessment? >> i do. we ran into this almost immediately on january 6 of 2017 when we went up to trump tower to brief then president-elect and his team on the intelligence community assessment and right a away and i think the president has been consistent that anything that casts doubt on the legitimacy of his election he has problems with. so that was the bad news, the truth to power we were serving up to him and that's been an issu issue. we have alternative facts and relative truth and that's anathema to anyone in the information business. >> one thing you used to do in your previous incarnation is you used to go up every january and february and give the threat briefing and line up the major threa

bloom, compared the tyranny of feminism in academia to -- he was writing at a time when women accounted for 10% of college tenured faculty. it is worth looking back at what was considered annoyingly outrageously politically correct in the 1980's, the last time we have this debate. having to -- not being able to call indigenous people " indians" or use terms like african-americans. adding women or people of color to the western curriculum, not making gay jokes are using "retart" as the next set. new words stick in your throat the way we are used to talking and thinking natural and normal. by definition, and then the new terms and concepts that have social utility stick and those that don't fall away. if you go back to the 1970's, ms stuck around and women with a y didn't. i hope that someday we will look thatand marvel gender-neutral protons ever seen like an existential threat. i also don't think it is clear that that might not happen because, there are plenty of places that have indeed dialed back cosmopolitanism and reinstated patriarchy in the name of staving off chaos. they seemed l

e promulgated such awareness and threat to not only academia and industry with respect to the threat to china and other nations who are stealing our proprietary data and trade secrets. we'll continue to do that and work with the association. i concur with your point. the private sector, leadership that is at the c.e.o. level needs to be a little bit more active in terms of obtaining security scleernses so that information that is classified can get to them in a more effective and efficient manner. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i want to pick up, mr. evanina, on the vice chairman's work to v.t.e. specifically, and thank you for the visit we had in our office. i thought it was very herphepful. now, in 2012 the house intelligence committee issued a nonclassified bipartisan report on national security issues posed by the chinese telecom companies. one of them was z.t.e. senator wyden: the report concluded the risks associated with z.t.e.'s provision of equipment to u.s. critical infrastructure could undermine american national security interests. do you agree with that bipartisan report? m
