that's an extraordinary statement from the acting defense secretary. chris miller was on the phone during the riots at the capitol with nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, mitch mcconnell and he listed all of those people and others that reached out to him, and not once did you hear from the president of the united states. >> no. >> that is just an extraordinary statement. >> we have less than a minute left. i want to put you on the spot quickly does he run again. there's two of you so you can give me yes and no and one of you will be right. >> i think that he is making all of the noise of somebody that wants to run again. we know how much he enjoys the spotlight. we are not in the prognostication business, but right at this moment he sure sounds like a guy that is running. >> i agree if he had to make the decision tomorrow the answer would be yes but we know that a year or two in politics is a long time. who knows how his health is going to be when he arrives. and we want to know what you think, john. >> i've been thinking know but i am more convinced than t

apple at this point is working for the east side defense counsel hoping that america would join in the world which in 1940 when they do it at this point being a communist is okay. we left out of that history in 1940 when the soviets ribbentrop pact made it difficult to be a communist because the whole idea was to be fighting the fascist and then they made this pact but by 1941 then it's okay. and by 1942 julius has made himself available to the russians probably because there were so many rallies at this point and the american government had to persuade everyone rushes and now our ally. russia is our friend so there were a lot of rallies and showing how courageous the russians were and probably that's where julia's introduces himself and offers all these friends of his from pcn y. who are involved in government engineering work as possibly able to pass information. i think at this point apple probably knows or whether she knows from it she surely does know that julius is helping. i think she probably admired what he was doing but certainly was totally involved in being a good mother an

i mean, i mean, look at our military budget, the senate this week added $25000000000.00 to biden's defense budget, which means they failed to add $30000000000.00 to our military budget, or $40000000.00 or 43000000. those are all the numbers that can take up. they only added $25000000000.00 to the military intelligence. industrial complex is already one trillion dollar. 0 annual pay date, i mean we would such a pathetic measly amount of money. how will the joint chiefs of staff keep their gold plated well, if properly polished for the winter festival in which they ceremonially impregnated f 35 fighter jet by a hump against town pipe rental? they that i think we're all asking that question right. how could we possibly pay for our citizens to have something as frivolous, an elitist as health care when our military had do and to combat missions in iraq this week? i assume, because they didn't have the cash to keep going on. our trillion dollar military is suffering right now. they're borderline destitute. i heard instead of night vision goggles, they're only equipped with day vision goggles, w

more than $3000000000.00 a year and us financial aid, much of its spent on defense, certainly help. the israeli government can also choose which countries companies like and so can deal with through the selective issuing of export license. which means the pegasus story isn't just about surveillance. the spyware is a form of diplomatic currency. the israeli government spends to make new friends and forge new alliances through technology whose roots traced back to israel's military, and it's surveillance of palestinians. mm. the israeli tech sector. it is based quite a lot on the alumni of the elite israeli technological that these people were trained by the best and use during their military service to surveil palestine. in a lot of times they used to beta, they gathered in order to explore it or to use against palestinians in order to come out with additional information. it's no coincidence that israel has the highest surveillance companies per capita in the world. it's also not a coincidence that 80 percent of founder and so the israel cybersecurity companies come from the israeli

. >> paul: let's bring in cliff may, founder and president of the foundation for defense of democracies. cliff, good to see you. first, how fast are events deteriorating in afghanistan? >> very rapidly. one could say that a bloodbath is coming, except that a bloodbath is really already here. about 100 civilians were taken by taliban in kandahar. they were taken out and shot or beheaded. that's really bad. there's not a lot of reporting going on. one of the reasons is one of the best reporters in afghanistan, dana sadiki, he was captured by the taliban and executed. we're seeing a very rapid deterioration. we're seeing america surrender, and i just want to remind you, that khalid sheikh mohammed, al qaeda mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, when he was at gitmo, he told his interrogator, we will win, he told his interrogator. we only need to fight long enough for you to defeat yourself by quitting. that's what's going on right now. so i don't know that he drinks champagne or he has access to it at guantanamo but if he does on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, he would be justified in breaking op

if he did, that would be a defense. on the other hand, if he knew he lost and this was an intentional effort to subvert our free and fair election, it is hard to imagine a more appropriate case for criminal prosecution. this was an extraordinarily dangerous moment for our democracy. >> talk about though, paul, how difficult it is to prove intent. i mean we have had an iteration of this conversation over the last five years so many different times because the conversation the former president has had with top officials, right, whether or not his intent was such. how difficult is it to even go down that road? >> it is almost like answering the question was trump just extraordinarily ignorant or was he evil in a criminal culpable way. there's some evidence that he knew that what he was doing was wrong because we had this repeated conduct, including not just pressuring the justice department but pressuring his own vice president on january 6th to ignore the constitution and somehow not try to -- not try to certify those ele

what we have been recommending for years and what is being done right now is there has been a national defense strategy well before the pandemic that is supposed to work across the entire federal government and the aviation pandemic plan would just be a piece of that within the industry. it is pretty well spelled out who is responsible at the highest level. hhs and dhs have that broad authority to develop the strategy. as i mentioned, i totally agree that the department of transportation would have the lead working with her particular industry. >> thank you very much and a reminder to members, i have a bill to direct d.o.t. to direct the plan and would welcome cosponsors. continuing on, i think it is page 17 of your testimony, if you could quickly address the aviation manufacturing jobs protection program, which we approved in the american rescue plan. it has been set up, first round of applications have been processed. the application process has been reopened. have you started to look at d.o.t.'s rollout of the application process or will you wait a certain amount of time before you take a l

senator scott, first, i appreciate your defense of the cuban people and your articulation of that. so powerfulfully and consistently. secondly, i will take stock of what you said, urging me to be even more vocal about the situation in cuba, as you know, this is something profoundly personal to me. i was born in cuba and my parents brought me here as refugees fleeing the communist takeover of cuba and my father lost his business, the place of his birth, where he thought he would raise his family and even the opportunity to lay his mother to rest. i join you, condemning the authoritarian regime in cuba and its repression of the people of cuba and i echo your and the president's and our secretary of state's and the president's national security advisors condemnation of the actions of the authoritarian regime in cuba. we stand very strongly with the people of cuba and the measures this administration has taken are powerfulfully evident to that. >> that you, secretary. do you believe the administration's doing enough to focus on-- i mean, cuba is the root cause of the problem. look at t

to figure out exactly what you are saying, appropriate defense for this? >> guest: i think it is. i mean, the kinds of governance that would lurk is not good to be effective against nonstate actors, gangs, criminals. they are being employed in mexico by cartels to attack police and attack other cartels. governance, that's not going to affect that, right? they are already commercially available. they can modify them to be deadly, those sort of arms control can affect that. arms control would be effective i think is when you start getting into larger systems that can launch precision guided munitions or missiles and stuff like that. even then, china is one of the largest exporters of drones similar to predators and they will not sign on to something like that. they have actually used our unwillingness to sell to some of these countries as an advantage to sell to them. they've got this market with the u.s. prior to pulling out wouldn't sell to these countries so china said we will fill that point and we will sell you in armed drone. >> host: well, wayne, i do

joining me, the former deputy attorney general under president bill clinton, former defense department general counsel and former member of the 9/11 commission. so, first of all, do you agree with donald trump's assessment of what's going on, his accusations and it's actually helping to clarify what happened, that which he's accused -- not accused, but conversation? >> no, those notes reflect that he was trying to influence the department of justice to call the election corrupt. that effort on his part was corrupt. >> so this idea, jamie, of a sitting president even having conversations like this with top doj officials, is that routine? >> no, it's not only not routine, it's against every tradition of the department of justice in republican and democratic administrations alike. it's totally abhorrent. >> what do you make of the fact that the doj has provided these notes to congress and they've been released? does that meet with your expectations as a former deputy attorney general yourself? >> i think that the department of justice is now trying to right the ship in many ways in the re
