puerto rico belongs to but is not part of the united states. in that was given by the supreme court with territories acquired. provided puerto rico was acquired by the united states, the political status of the inhabitants proceeding shall be determined by congress, and it was the emperor's iceman of that position that will activity framework in order for the development of a new relationship between the united states and the territories, and that lack of framework provoked the debate that eventually led to the articles which eventually provide the building blocks for the doctrine of not incorporation. but, in light of all that it has been clear that the territorial nature in the legal, political, and all has been reiterated that only by the supreme court and united states but by the presence task force and by the solicitor general for the supreme court in the case of puerto rico. in fact, it seems that puerto rico's still subject rico's still subject to the plenary powers of congress and they may indefinitely exercise control over puerto rico

session of the united nations security council, the united states, cuba and russia offered separate resolutions and traded bitter charges. >> do you, ambassador, deny to the ussr has placed and is placing medium and intermediate range missiles and sites in cuba? yes or no? don't wait for the translation. yes or no? >> i am not in an american courtroom, sir. therefore, i do not wish to answer a question that's put to me in the fashion in which prosecutor does. in due course, sir, you will have your replay. >> i'm prepared to wait for my answer until hell freezes over if that's your decision. >> each side didn't know what the other side was doing and there was a lot of room for miscalculation. >> we believe there are about 25 soviet ships moving toward cuba. if the vessel does not stop, refuses to heed the instructions, force will be applied to assure that it does stop. >> nikita khrushchev says soviet ships will never submit to the united states blockade. >> the next few days are critical. who is going to blink first? i lost my sight in afghanistan. if you're totally blind, you may a

the united states standing in latin -- the united states' standing in latin america had suffered. suspicion of our motives was high an anti-american voices were ascendant and loud. if you'd asked some of our neighbors about the yankees, you'd have gotten roughly the same answer you'd get from a red sox fan. today, the american flag flies over our re-opened embassy in cuba. more americans are visiting cuba than at any time in the last 50 years. more american companies are looking to invest and do business in cuba. as we normalize relations, we have just announced relation laer to reforms to make it easier for americans to travel to cuba and engage with the cuban people. yesterday -- yesterday marked the first direct mail delivery flight between our countries in 53 years. today, colombia is experiencing historic change, as president obama noted during president santos' visit last month. thanks to the courage and determination of the colombian people and with bipartisan support here for plan colombia, colombia today is more stable, secure, and prosperous than it has been for decades.

united states is an island nation. my former boss, james holloway then third, said he had a meeting with secretary of defense harry brown and the carter administration. during the air of the soviet union in the 1970's. brown argued we needed to pursue civility with the soviet union by achieving parity. to be credit he -- for our allies to even know the united states needed to control the high seas, the navy, on the other hand was as sea denial force. in a war with the soviet union, "thai soviet navy was not an option. let's go to the next life. ok. going back to the 1950's, the eisenhower administration implemented a new look. the air force got a budget to build a be 57 b-52 bomber. the navy wanted to play in the strategic integrated operations as detailed in fisa admiral jerry miller's book. eventually, we put nuclear weapons aboard ballistic submarines. it took on the mission of defending the motherland from the nuclear bombs. nuclear subs and combatants could go after our [indiscernible] meanwhile, the best in stata

the united nations is not a friend of democracy even to the united states of america where as you know, it surely is not a friend to israel and with president obama in his final year. [cheers and applause] >> he may be the worse the to ever happen to israel. believe me. you know, it better than anybody. so with the president in his final year discussions to bring the security council resolution of the eventual agreement of israel and palestine. in agreement post would be a total and complete disaster the united states must oppose this resolution that i will use as president 100 percent. [applause] the people ask why it because that is not how you make a deal. they come to a table as they negotiate. each side must give up something those values that we have to do something in exchange for something that is required. that is what a deal is. something when we oppose it we bring together a group of people to come up with something that will not happen with the united nations. very important to only furthered delegitimatize israel it is a catastrophe and a disaster and it will not happen.

the united states response is freer sanctions. beginning in 2009-2010, the murder of high profile opposition activists, beginning with orlando zapata zamaya, and in 2011 with the founding leader of the ladies in white, lara poyan and harold zaparo, nominatenumerous times for the nobel prize and cul killed in wt appears to be a state security operation. we've seen the violence increase post-december 2014. we are carrying for surli avila leon, one of the people who tried to keep a school open and because she got frustrated with official channels went purged from her position in the government and machete attacked in november of 2014. this is a situation that is deteriorating and the administration's nonresponsiveness does not point to a bright future. today marks the 13th anniversary of the cuban black spring. back in 2003 a year after jimmyy carter's visit to cuba, there was a massive crack down on organizers of the varella project, there was an international campaign of solidarity to see those prisoners of conscience released, and

some are traveling alone, others are traveling as part of family units. some are traveling in search of economic opportunity, others are literally fleeing for their lives to escape war, devastation, rape, and forced inscription into armies. -- conscription into armies. the vast majority are syrian. can anyone tell me why the syrians are fleeing? albert. civil war, absolutely. would anyone else like to talk? meredith.

united. it's also why as president i will make a firm commitment to insure israel maintains its qualitative military edge. the united states should provide israel with the most sophisticated defense technology so it can deter and stop any threats. that includes bolstering israeli missile defenses with new systems like the arrow 3 and david sling. and we should work together to develop better tunnel detection, technology to prevent arms smuggling, kidnapping, and terrorist attacks. one of the first things i'll do in office is invite the israeli prime minister to visit the white house. [ applause ] and i will send a delegation from the pentagon and the joint chiefs to israel for early consultations. let's also expand our collaboration beyond security. together, we can build an even more vibrant culture of innovation that tightens the links between silicon valley and israeli tech companies and entrepreneurs. there is much americans can learn from israel, from cybersecurity to energy security to

reason to get in the united states. if you have a temporary visa program, you have something that allows a release for those pressures. most of the proposals have something like that. >> host: the opinion of james at twitter. i'm opposed to deporting them, but the penalty should be forfeiting the right to vote forever. that is according to james at twitter. we will point out that douglas holtz-eakin is present at the american action forum, headed the cbo. 2003-2005 and also served as director of domestic and economic policy for the john mccain presidential campaign edwards for president george h.w. bush as part of the national of economic advisers. >> guest: i worked for george h.w. bush and also george w. bush. >> host: republican, good morning. go ahead, nadine. >> caller: hey, thanks for taking my call. i think the problem that we've in my circle is that a lot of individuals fear that the face of america is changing. you know, a lot of folks don't want their counties to be like counties in mexico or other countries.

we are still a colony of the united states. of course, it's not settle but even the issue of self-determination is never settled anywhere. because all peoples have began to invite to self-determination. but the results were dramatic snapshot of what the people of puerto rico believe at that time. for the first time that territorial relations defined as such a territorial relation was rejected by the people, and that's a historical and political statement that cannot be forgotten. however, i would like to point out footnote. even if the results have been the other way around, that result would have been invalid under international law. no people may renounce to its right to self-determination. that means that the right to self-determination has been unable right. that means it cannot be renounced. no people may agree to colonialism, to a colonial relationship. that is not valid exercise of self-determination. in the collective level, that cannot be done. in the individual level no individual may consent to slavery which is also

what the united states was doing was not working. we have to have the courage to acknowledge that truth. a policy of isolation designed for the cold war made little sense in the 21st century. the embargo was only hurting the cuban people instead of helping them. and i always believed in what martin luther king, jr. called the fierce urgency of now. we should not fear change. we should embrace it. [ applause ] >> that leaves me to a bigger and more important reason for these changes. [ speaking spanish ] >> i believe in any cuban people. [ cheers and applause ] >> this is not just a policy of normalizing relations with the cuban government. the united states of america is normalizing relations with the cuban people. [ applause ] >> and today i want to share with you my vision of what our future can be. i want the cuban people, especially the young people, to understand why i believe that you should look to the future with hope, not the false promise, which insists that things are better than they really are, or the blind optimism that

united states. for rights purposes, the bill of rights applied to territories in like manner or in the same way that it applied to states, and there's plenty of jurisprudence to affirm this logic. the imperialist tradition, which includes the occupation of native americans, was premised on the strategy of economic and military purposes. territories were selectively occupied, sometimes indefinitely, sometimes treated as foreign in a domestic sense. the constitutional clauses that were used were anything but the territories clause, including the commander in chief clause, the treaties clause, the commerce clause and a whole range of other constitutional clauses, but no occupied territory was governed under the territories clause or the government's power, constitutional source of power, did not emanate from the territories clause. citizenship of birth in an occupied territory was tantamount to birth outside of the united states, and unless congress enacted specific legislation, the children of citizen

because the united states unwisely relies on the united nations for all referrals of refugeesettlemen seeking resettlement christians and other religious minorities fleeing persecution of the victims of audit attentional discrimination. yea last year of the 1,790 syrian refugees of those 41 29 or christian.29 or christian. that means that while 13 percent of syria's prewar religious minorities, only 2.3 percent of the refugees that make it to the us a religious minorities. doubt, syr without doubt syrians of all confessions are being victimized by the savage warbutp and the pacing and imaginal suffering. but only christians and other minorities are the deliberate targets of systematic persecutionen genocide. their ancient communities are risk of extermination, ancestral homes and religious sites are being erased from the middle eastern map.ro christians and other minorities should not be shut out from the small number of refugees to find shelter in the united states. we had to help ensure that these committee survive. but why are christians underrepresented? there are number of factor

i have taken the fight to the united states congress. i once again led the fight to protect social security and medicare. i know when to fight and i know when to find common ground. we cannot allow division in washington to stop all progress for working families. i never believed it was enough to be just a vote or only a vote or only a voice. resultse in delivering for maryland families, and that makes all the difference. vic: thank you very much. now, donna edwards. rep. edwards: maryland is a state with so much going for it. we have great colleges and universities, including historically black colleges and universities. for too many marylanders, they are falling out of the middle class and struggling to get in. i know something about that struggle. that is why i am running for the united states senate, to give a voice to that worker who wants to take a paid day off because a child gets sick and they don't want to lose their job because of that. for the young woman who makes $.78 on the dollar and knows she should be paid the same as a

with the united states commission with no fewer 13 new battleships.to white united states to have ted or 12 nuclear power aircraft carriers. and not part of the build up but the manifestation with a permanently large combat fleet. to characterize as ald s goodwill trip as part of a very coz arrival of the world stage with their peacetime that came to be known the cruz of the great white week. we're not worried about air pollution. [laughter] >> united states immediately declared their pair to be uninvolved with that for attacks but the ostensibly because of american opposition in disgust. but a larger reason was by the year the 20th century toer the united states was toofu prominent into a powerful than those rivalries.he what those ships or not to battleships and then to fend off the u-boat's so the united states set aside those battleships and battle cruisers instead with hundreds of smaller warships. end 1919 it was the largest naval force on earth and it would be as soon as itding finished building those battleships. traditionally united states will now begin to divest itself of t

we get to pick which refugees are special interests to the united states and bring them to the united states. the asylum program allows people who are already here to apply for asylum and there's no numerical limit on asylum. so if you can claim that you're a refugee and you're already here under our law and international law, we cannot return you to your home country. you qualify for discretionary asylum status in the united states, which can put you on a path to a green card and eventually becoming a u.s. citizen along with everybody else. no numerical limit. so it's very tempting, i think, given the fact that you may be a refugee in a displaced person camp in jordan or turkey and if the u.s. doesn't pick you, you're kind of stuck there. but if you can get yourself into the united states or at the border and make the claim, then you're going to get processed sooner or later. and i think that is a great temp tak temptation. and i think the administration frankly is trying to balance expectations and is deliberately, i think, trying to deter people by imposing some consequences on the

for all members of the united nations. on april 7, the president invited the secretary general to coordinate regional and economic and social development programs in southeast asia and we transmitted the text of that address. throw the summer of 1965, we tried to engage members to find ways of engaging members. in january of this sure, the ambassador put the matter to the security council and gave them a summary of the peace offensive. it is there now. in an effort to find out whether the security council can be of some assistance. in moving this away from violence to negotiation. >> it has also been suggested, that the 14 nation conference -- secretary rusk: -- the geneva conference of laos was 14. there were fewer at the geneva conference in 9054, are you referring to the 17 non-relations group. --retary rusk: to reconvene >> to reconvene the geneva conference. that's efficient -- that suggestion has been made many times, chiefly from our side. the other side has been unwilling to come to such a conference. we indicated,

in the united united states military is the finest fighting force that mayank heinz has ever known. i want to ask today any active duty or veterans of the united states military to please stand along with any law-enforcement so we can thank you. america's free, the world the world is free because of you. [applause]. ladies and gentlemen, some of you may be wondering where i get this accent from and i'm here to tell you of course that is undeniably from south texas. [laughter] one that i've had for some time. i do indeed sound southern texas. you may be wondering why this guy with a funny accent cares about the united states. well it is very simple ladies and gentlemen, what is good for america is good for the world. what america does well the world as well. what america is weak, the world becomes an exceedingly dangerous place. that is not a hypothesis, that is not a theory, that is not something that i trumped up were written on the back of a cocktail napkin. that is what we are living right now, we are in that reality where the united states has been weekend by an administration t

as the state department they very reluctantly asked the united states and the united kingdom for assistance. by the end of october, 1962, united states and the royal air force were flying a massive airlift of weapons and equipment into india. six, 707's were landing every day at new delhi international airport. from their american c-130s were taking equipment to the front lines in the himalayas. then the chinese stopped. they paused for a week. then they started again with a larger offensive. at the end of november, this offensive threaten to overrun all of eastern india. if you think of india, there is a a little deck part that sticks out between bangladesh which was east pakistan at that time, all of that look like it was going to fall into chinese hand. it was unclear whether the chinese would stop there. there was some in india that that the chinese would march all the way to calcutta and take india's second-largest city. on november 19, 1962 the crisis came to its head. they said to kennedy to letters, the first letter arrived just before a national security council meeting. the second

united continental stock is up 1,470% since then. that's one of the top 15 performers in the s&p 500 since that moment, leaving the rest of the airline industry in the dust. only delta even comes close, up 1,064% over the same period. now, it's true over just the past five years, united continental is up 152%. it's still pretty darned good return, but not as good as delta, jetblue, or southwest over that period. that means the activists are technically correct. it's the worst performer in the industry over the last five years. but to me, if we were talking about stocks, i wouldn't regard that as cherry picking. since united continental is test be performer over the last seven years. and it's been pretty consistently outperformed both the dow transports and the s&p 500 in every time frame longer than the past 12 months, where the whole industry has, indeed, struggled. and compared to the rest of the industry, over the last two years, united continental has been better than some and worse than others. so i'm not buying this first charg

the united states is an open market. cuba has emphasized the role and rights of the state, the united states is founded upon he rights of the individual. despite these differences, on december 17, 2014, president castro and i announced that the united states and cuba would begin a process to normalize relations between our countries. [applause] since then, we've established diplomatic relations and opened embassies. we've begun initiatives to cooperate on health and agriculture. education and law enforcement. we've reached agreements to restore direct flights and mail service. we've expanded commercial ties and increased the capacity of americans to travel and do business in cuba. and these changes have been welcomed. even though there are still opponents to these policies. still, many people on both sides of this debate have asked, why now? why now? there is one simple answer. what the united states was doing was not working. we have to have the courage to acknowledge that truth. a policy of isolation designed for the c

or defect to the united states. amy: there is going to be a show, baseball game, that will end the trip. i want to ask you, peter, about president obama going before cuba to argentina and saying he will unsealed the files on argentina's dirty war. but the significance and the politics of that trip to argentina? >> we have lost you, amy, but your question is about the announcement that president obama is going to make it several days on march 24 when he is in buenos aires. that happens to be the 40th anniversary of the vicious military coup that took place in 1976. obama will be there. to thel visit a monument human rights victims. he will announce that he is when a specialty classification of cia, defense department and fbi records on the repression in argentina and helped advance truth and justice and memory in that country. i just think that is an amazingly important human rights gesture that will also said another president. he will unveil and reveal history order to make history. and nicaragua to thank you for b

the rye the united states and britain maintained an equal number of battleships the united states battleships in numbers and sizes previously this is the swing shift coming in. it was not only the largest navy on earth it was larger than all the other navies combined. in the 18 months the navy processed out three and a half million men and scrapped or mothballed thousands of ships but it did not return to its peacetime talker due to the almost immediate onset of the cold war the united states took more than 1000 ships on apt to have kept more than a thousand ships on active service. the numbers vary from 300 to 500. fun to boost the numbers reaching a peak of 592 including a number of refurbished older ships kept on active service more to make a statement. reached on law in 2,007, 278 283. critics are correct to note that by historic standards this is a low number, but as i suggested, that is misleading. if we use lightly longer lenses the current number is significantly greater than the nations historical average. the real difference is the nation has now accepted and even embraced the notio

united states, the supreme court of the united states held that that was fine. that the united states had no obligation under its own laws or under international law to conduct asylum interviews on the high seas. so credible fear was a temporary measure, there probably wasn't even necessary in the end. it only lasted for a few months and i was startled to see credible fear appear in the statute of the united states. as part of our expedited removal process. when expedited removal came in, credible fear shows up in the statute. where does that come from? while it was invented as a device to screen out migrants, as has been commented on, it's being used now as a device to screen people in. so they don't have to actually prove their asylum claims. all they have to do is state credible fear. and they're basically in, they join the queue for an immigration judge so they can make their asylum claim in removal proceedings and we know that can sometimes take a long time. and the word is out. this is how you do it. you make a good credible fear claim and you're in. in th

and that's because this transformation has been mirrored by a change in the united states -- united states' approach to the region. before president obama took office, our bilateral relationships were often strained. the united states' standing in latin america had suffered. suspicion of our motives was high an anti-american voices were ascendant and loud. if you'd asked some of our neighbors about the yankees, you'd have gotten roughly the same answer you'd get from a red sox fan. [laughter] >> today, the american flag flies over our re-opened embassy in cuba. more americans are visiting cuba than at any time in the last 50 years. more american companies are looking to invest and do business in cuba. as we normalize relations, we have just announced reforms to make it easier for americans to travel to cuba and engage with the cuban people. yesterday marked the first direct mail delivery flight between our countries in 53 years. today, colombia is experiencing historic change, as president obama noted during president santos' visit last month. thanks to the courage and determination of the

we get to pick which ref gees are of specific interest to the united states and bring them the united states. if asylum programs allows people that are already here to apply for asylum and there's no numerical limit on asylum. if you can claim you're a refugee and already here under our law and international law, we cannot return tow to your home country, you qualify for asylum status in the united states which can put you on the path to a green card and eventually becoming a u.s. citizen along with everybody else. no numerical limit. you may be a refugee in a displaced person camp and if the u.s. doesn't pick you, you're kind of stuck there. but if you can get yourself into the united states or at the border and make the claim, then you're going to get processed. sooner or later. and i think that is a great temptation, as mr. lynch says, that is a poll factor to the extent that people have a realistic expectation. and i think the administration frankly is trying to balance expectations and is deliberately, i think, trying to, trying to deter people by imposing some consequences on th

some important developments at the united nations today. the international community has strongly condemned north korea's weapons of mass destruction proliferation activity. it's continued efforts to advance its nuclear missile programs with unprecedented sanctions. u.n. security council resolution 2270, contains the most extensive multilateral sanctions measures to date, including new sartorial sanctions on north korean mineral exports and financial sanctions targeting north korean banking activities in support of its wmd programs. the resolution also imposes unprecedented inspection requirements on north korean cargo and closes loopholes in the implementation of sanctions. to be clear, today's actions are not aimed at increasing the suffering of the north korean people. rather, our collective goal is to increase the costs on pyongyang's leadership as it stubbornly seeks to advance its prohibited nuclear and ballistic missile programs. we have consistently said that north korea would face consequences for its actions, and we welcome this u

military and the united states intelligence community. these individuals are required to submit biometric and biographical information so that can be used to vet them. and all of this is critical to our national security. at the same time, the united states takes in more refugees through the u.n. program than every other country in the world combined, and we're proud and we should be proud, of the way the united states is viewed around the world as a safe haven for people who have been targeted and victimized nor some cases even the victims of genocide, in their own countries, and there was a big hullabaloo by the republican party. i was asked several times whether or not the state department would conclude that acts of genocide were being carried out by isil in iraq and syria. our are -- are republicans suggesting we should turn our backs on people we have concluded fleeing genocide anywhere country? are the suggesting we should be tough on icele and protect people who might be victims of genocide about we shouldn't let them in the unite

i do this end, i do the seg unit. but i will recommend that you guys go back to 2-4. >> yeah.to separate likely comb. >> that makes five units i can't put david peters on, considering i only have 11 units to actually work with here it makes him very difficult to house. >> i'm probably a headache to stangel. i get into fights. these people, these people, he don't know where to put me. everywhere i go i'm going to cause somebody a headache. i'm going to start something. >> see that's the thing, i don't want to put my man in a situation where he's going to go somewhere else. i'm going to make sure he goes somewhere else, too. >> very much like a soap opera, a lot of silly drama. you keep track the best you can. they do the time, go back to another general population unit. sometimes they make it, sometimes they don't. they come back here and i'm left pick up the pieces. >> stangel is on top of his game. he tries his best to -- who got problems with who, but, no way you can pinpoint everything. he's all right though. he's

the united states standing in latin america suffered. suspicion of our motives was high and anti- american voices were loud. if you had asked him about neighbors about the yankees, you would have gotten roughly the same answer you would get from a red sox fan. [laughter] >> today, the american flag flies over our reopened in the scene cuba. more americans are visiting cuba than at any time in the last 50 years. more american companies are looking to invest in new business in cuba. as we normalize relations, we have just announced regulatory reforms that will make it easier for americans to travel to cuba and engage with the cuban people. yesterday marked the first direct mail delivery flight between our countries in 53 years. today, columbia is experiencing historic change. as president obama noted during president santos is visit last month. thanks to the courage and determination of the columbia people and with bipartisan support here for planned columbia, club you today is more stable, secure and prosperous than it has been for decade

being the terrible enemy and blaming their problems on the united states? >> i think president obama's visit along with his changed policy towards cuba and latin america as a region has been one much more of strategic partnership and engagement rather than clinging to the castro leftist antileftist rhetoric and now we have the president of that supposed source of evil coming down and saying i'm looking to you as partners and i'm looking for engagement. so i absolutely think that rules out the cast troas tired lin ca. when president obama is there to advance a bilateral relationship. >> for not taking a quid pro quo approach to cuba, cuba isn't providing many quotes. has this been mostly a one-sided engagement? >> i think what the obama administration has been trying to did is focus on policies that -- do is focus on policies that can help the cuban people. not so much government for government, but rather can the united states government do to open up policies that are beneficial for the cuban people. that includes increasing the remittance cap and companie

i don't see an election year exception in the united states constitution. and so i'm perplexed as to what is the situation we find ourselves in right now? i thought that i may ask the distinguished gentlelady, my colleague, my co-anchor from ohio, to reflect upon, you might, a few comments that could shed light on the situation we find ourselves in right now as it relates to the supreme court vacancy made by senate majority leader mitch mcconnell over the years during his time here in congress. in 1986, mitch mcconnell said, i believe that a heavy burden must bed me by those who would have this nominee rejected. under the constitution, our duty is to provide advice and consent to judicial nominations. not to substitute our judgment for what our -- for what are reasonable views for a judicial nominee to hold. that was in 1996. in 1990, the said it is clear under our form of government that the advice and consent role of the senate and jew -- in judicial nominations should not be politicized. that was mitch mcconnell in 1990. n 2005 he, said, our job is to re

nehru did very, very reluctantly asked the united states and the united kingdom for a system. and by the end of october of 1962, the united states and the royal air force were flying a massive airlift of weapons and equipment into india. six, 7074 land everyday at new delhi international airport, and from there american c-130s were taking equipment to the front lines in the himalayas indian kashmir. then the chinese stopped. they paused for a week. then they started again with an even larger opens up. at the end of november this offensive threatened to overrun all of eastern india. if you think of india there's that little part that sticks out beyond bangladesh. bangladesh of course in 1962 west east pakistan. all of that part looked like it was going to fall into chinese hands. it was unclear whether the chinese would stop there. there was some of the chinese would march all the way to calcutta and take india's second largest city. on november 19, 1962, the crisis came to its head. nehru sent to kennedy to letters. the first letter arrived just before a national security coun

and we converted 30,000 units and have applications for 185,000 and a waiting list of the units and we are asking congress to remove the cap because the demand is there. some flexibility so that public housing authorities and 30% of their operating and capital money interchangeably. if there is a dire cap cal need they feel have to be addressed now, they feel they have flexibility to do that. this is the kind of flexibility that exists for mtw agencies and a broader request for flexibility and we feel that the 30% flexibility requests makes sense and it could be used for those. just like the answer you gave earlier on section 202 rental housing and on section 811 for the disabled. this is even with a budget agreement. in terms of the needs we are addressing. i hope for a good allocation this year as we write the bills. i hope and expect we will have the usual collaborative process across party lines. that's by the magnitude of this task. how much we are having to devote from staying in place. >> further questions? and once again, thank you and your staff for for participating and your

unit and the berkeley card unit. these are the two areas that perhaps they will start stepping back from so they can overall cut their costs in capital and start rejuvenating themselves. anna: what are the benefits of offloading the african unit? are looking atu this particular chart you can see the likes of the return on equity and the operating margin is less than if you compare it to other units. clearly come it is not getting so much bang for its buck. in the third quarter, it was the only major unit to see a drop off overall in its numbers and today he again we are expecting the fourth quarter to show a negative expert taking. the rand was so hampered and has big exposure to south africa or the african business and it is a slowing business -- a slowing area. analysts say if you had listened from the comments from mcfarlane, the chairman at barclays, he said and the second quarter earnings that berkeley would prefer to increase in africa rather than decrease at it looks as though you could redistribute the cost o

cuba doesn't have to be defined by being against the united states any more than the united states should be defined by being against cuba. and i'm hopeful for the future because of the reconciliation that's taking place among the cuban people. you know, i know that for some cubans on the island, there may be a sense that those who left somehow supported the old order in cuba. i'm sure there's a narrative that lingers here, which suggests that cuban exiles ignored the problems of pre-revolutionary cuba and rejected the struggle to build a new future. but i can tell you today that so many cuban exiles carry a memory of painful and sometimes violent separation. they love cuba. a part of them still considers this their true home. that's why their passion is so strong. that's why their heartache is so great. and for the cuban-american community i have come to know and respect, this is not just about politics. this is about family. the memory of a home that was lost. the desire to rebuild a broken bond. the hope for a better future, the hope for a return and reconciliation. for all of the poli

, german units, uk units, even an american unit and the great concern, of course, those other units at some point could be activated as well. george, you know, the airport areas before security have long been considered one of the most vulnerable targets because there are people -- soldiers roam the area but no real hard security. anybody can have access to an airport area. as people go to the ticket counter to check this those are vulnerable. matt, talk about the kinds of precautions that will be taken across the united states right now in the wake of these attacks in europe. >> well, certainly the fbi will work closely with their counterparts in belgium to learn as much as they can. that will mean as you suggest that there will be security precautions taken here at airports, i think we'll see stepped up security at transportation hubs, the kinds of things we've seen in the past in the united states when there have been attacks in other places, similar to what we saw late last fall in after the paris attacks. >> and what kind of coordination was it with the european intelligence? >> w

airlines for customer satisfaction. ♪ yeah united breaks guitars >> it's not just united. even though the airlines are increasingly coming under fire for bad service, profits soared 61% between the third quarter of 2014 and the same period in 2015. charlie is chairman of travelers united, a passenger rights group in washington. >> there are only four airlines which basically are controlling the air space in north america. that doesn't give us lots of choice. >> in 2008, as u.s. airlines started to merge into the four major players we have today, united, delta, american and southwest, they were also getting hit by sky-high oil prices. so they started charging fees for so-called extras. food, wifi, seat upgrades and more. the move has paid off for carriers and their customers. adjusting for inflation, airfares are cheaper than they used to be, but the extra fees are a bonus for airlines. then in 2014 airlinies scored bigger as oil prices plummeted. by mid-2015 they reported the biggest quarterly profits since 2006, and yet, the savings haven't been passed along to customers.

states units we will have this typically the past used to cite the units in an existing building once you construct the building it is used the past for a situation where you're taking a number of rienl guest rooms and taking them out of one or more building and it says that buildings with the provision eligible for the replacement unit can't be a building previously under the ordinance that means if it as one or more in the past 70 applications have chosen a combination of in lui fees or building new units or citing unit in an existing building with building permits, etc. within transfer into a residential hotel housing units so in looking at section or slide 7 as you can see item number a-4 and slide 8, a 5 those are the types of methods chosen that will require that type of financial formula i know there was some talk about this at the last meeting that's where that comes into play and question by one of the members has to say a building comes in and wanted to convert to the residential guests rooms to toughest one of those previous works they did all in lui fees with the amount is

and potentially after that, the president of the united states. and done so in a way that has unleashed all kinds of instability and very dangerous and dark sentiment in the united states. in brazil, the instability is far greater. i was just writing for an american audience, trying to get them to understand the level of instability by saying that what is happening in brazil is much greater in terms of the disruption than what is happening as a result of donald trump's successful candidacy, because it pervades a must every economic and political institution -- almost every comic and political institution. what you see is this young democracy in brazil that is now being threatened as a result of this really opportunistic and explicate of attack on the part of the country's richest media outlets and richest factions to essentially undo the results of four consecutive democratic elections by trying to remove democratically elected president. she was just reelected in 2014. on totally fictitious grounds of pretext. it is quite dangerous once you thet
