of force especially deadly uses of force. and with 37 years of experience for what we asked for what we need is people to approach to problem-solving that there are times to have a heart of a warrior. because some of these deadly encounters over the years we have people that were cops afraid of their own shadow. and not austin texas ray came from but to make the police academy a warmer and gentler college environment and here is what i word caution. if we can't test your metal how you would react to physical the diversity or psychological electricity come i would hate not to be able to read somebody out toso go straight for the gun and then in broad daylight and my officer at the time encounters him and has his gun in his hand. and then to assess that kind of mindset and fear any training environment? of the real cop and how do we balance it? >> that's a hard issue. sue, and the washington state law enforcement academy she is the person here readm, the influential so one of the things that sue always says that was very powerf

think of us like the freemasons for criminals. when i got home i got an e-mail from the head of communications of the united grand lodge of england saying would you like to come in for a chat? the free masons up and down england had phoned in to protest that i was comparing them to the mafia. so i did of course go along. i talked to the historian, i realize there immediately i think that there was i only knew a little bit about history of free masonry. particularly form an angle in italy has a very important role in the history of free masonry, that's why spent a fair bit of my book in there. the united states occupies so does britain and italy they are the major bases if you would like. italy because of the catholic church long history of fear and suspicion of freemasonry. free masonry is first repressed by mussolini in 19205. and also the whole history of collusion between free masonry, crime, the p2 story and various mafia organizations to the freemasons in italy. so, i knew a bit of the story. then i realize, i got the sense y

the bias we all have they come from the media, they come from people around us. you cannot just wish them away. what you can try to do is be conscious of them and make sure you do not given to them. and it is not your fault but it is your responsibility to counterbalance those biases that we all have. i cannot think about specific instances off the top of my head but there were moments for instance there terrible neighborhood in terms of crime rates and so on. i end up talking to somebody who is really, really thoughtful, really, released martin educated. i find myself surprised. assuming something intellectually isw wrong. because this is a poor neighborhood, everyone i news going to be poorly educated and that is just not b true. i do think i caught myself and some moments of making assumptions that probably came out of my own bias. and then being embarrassedea when i realize how erroneousou they were. >> i think we have all been there. and it is okay that we have been there. i think the fact you are in tune with your self your own biases there something you ta

i've been telling folks when you look at instances of unjustified uses of force, especially deadly uses of force. i would argue about 37 years of experience, we have to be careful what we ask for. because what we need is people that have mind over guardian and-- there are times and i'm sure you witnessed it only to talk about it, that you have to have the heart of a warrior. i would argue some of the deadly encountered over the years is because we have people who have cops that are wearing a badge that are afraid of their own shadows. we need to make the police academy, warmer, gentler, it shouldn't be para military stuff and here is the caution, if we can't test your mettle how you'll react to physical adversity or psychological adversity and people getting under your skin. i'd hate to weed out someone who would go to their gun. a man, totally naked in broad daylight and my officer encounters him with a gun in his hand. do you have experience that warrior cop versus the guardian cop. should should we balance there. >> gosh, no, it's a really hard issue, but i don't think it's either/or

here's the deal, if incentives help us beat this virus, i believe we should use them. we all benefits when we get more people vaccinated. and the addition to providing incentives for vaccination it is time to impose requirements on key groups to make sure they are vaccinated. just this week we took an important step to protect our veterans. like many civilian hospital systems are doing, the department of veterans affairs will now require covid-19 vaccines for doctors and nurses and other healthcare workers who provide medical care for veterans. we must do everything possible to protect our veterans from getting covid when they come to get medical care they so richly earned serving their country. we owe them. next, since many vaccinations are required for active duty military today, i am asking the defense department to look into how and when they will add covid-19 to the list of vaccinations the armed forces must get. our men and women in uniform who protect this country from grave threat should be protected as much as possible from getting covid-19. i think this is pa

i'm using the vehicle and drive. i'm using my equipment. we don't have enough resources to do what were doing it now and if you take the money away, then what. because the polite version of their response. there's an angry version. art: . [inaudible]. rosa: bullet our viewers imagine the other version. but if you say to the cops and said, very different say, okay, what are things you do the frustrate you that you wish you didn't have to do and that you don't think that you should be doing. you take a mentally ill person to the emergency psychiatric clinic and you know that person will be back on the street without medications and a home to go to the very next day they say oh, their million things. and it's stunning we end up picking up the slack printed and then i think it could you to a much different much of a their conversation you are saying let's work together the critics in the place to talk about what this communities priorities arew do we would get them in an ideae world and how far are we away from them now about we gradually recal

it's on us to make sure that they get it. the funding is there and the urgency is there. one of the things the pandemic has shown us or has exposed, the inequities and the gaps that are there and i just wonder when it comes to that kind of access, was the access even more severe than you thought it was before the pandemic? >> yes and i will share with you it was about april of 2020 we were about a month into the shut down in connecticut and i had a conversation with a superintendent from a very wealthy district. they had great broadband access and many were fortunate to have a parent to be able to work from home and then the curriculum top-notch. we invested in it years ago so all we had to do is flip a switch and they got high quality education. that same day i spoke to a superintendent that was under resourced with students that were well below the poverty line and i asked how it's going there and she shared with me that it took four weeks to communicate with her families and through snail mail and community was four weeks ahead already. they were trying to connect with

us code title 18 part one chapter 1133 section 2331. the term domestic terrorism means activities that involves acts dangerous to human life that are in violation of the la of the united states or any state. and if you're to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or to influence the policy of the government by intimidation or coercion or to affect the conduct of the government by mass instruction assassination were kidnapping i primarily with the jurisdiction of the us. i've got one final question before my time is up. are there questions you hope we can answer as a committee about the causes of the attacks and what happened in the weeks prio to january 6 i think in my opinion we need to get to the bottom of who brought those people here. why they were led to believe that the process was rigged along those lines. for going back to what he said. have had my 15 years of service. had given tours to thousands of people. had no point in time was i ever attacked. i don't know how youth you see my hand leading getting concus

." >> tanks for joining us. i'm art acevedo, police chief in houston, texas, and the modern and happy to visit with rosa brooks, the author of an interesting book about policing and her experience in policing "tangled up in blue: policing the american city." roser, thanks for being on at thanks for having me, and i look forward to this conversation but after start off with one pressing question. what in the world made you leave the confines of the classroom, your home and go on and get trained as a police officer hit the streets in washington, d.c.? >> if you ask my family that they would say insanity, midlife crisis. i was just curious pickups probably the driving force. when i found out that d.c. has a reserve officer program where you are not just directing traffic or something but where you can be, a sworn armed police officer, i thought no way, that's crazy. you're going to give again into a law law professor? bad idea. it was probably that, just plain curiosity. the other thing as you know very, very well,

we asked them to join us. they said they were qualified not because of people who were janitors, hairdressers, factory workers, who did not benefit. i realized after two or three such encounters that i was in the wrong struggle. in fact, i have a headline in my office that was written by the late bill wrathberry, a headline in 1965, poor negroes do not benefit from the gains of the civil rights movement and it goes on to list the reasons. so i believe that there has been a bifurcation of the black community that existed since then and continues to this day. >> okay. let's -- i still want to stick s on your title for a bit. rescuing american history. >> yes. american history as it was told as it is unfolded, 1619, does not really talk about the true authentic picture of blacks. blacks are never defined by slavery. so some of our essays, for instance, looks at the records of six major plantations at the end of slavery, to look at what was happening in the family. they found that 70% of slave families had a man a

with them, what can you update us on? >> let me check on that for you, kelly it certainly is possible their people here who plan to meet with him as we have in the past when other legislators have come to washington so let me see if there is a planned meeting with anyone from her team, go ahead. >> coming in on the question jonathan was asking what is the status of the formal request the u.s. troops still under analysis? >> that is right still under review. >> it is not enrolled out? >> no. >> what is the current assessment here is how haiti ranks in terms of american interests? [inaudible] states of the president and the administration don't think it is in a rank order with issues happening around the world. they are all important that so we have a big government and why we are focused on doing what we can to support the people of haiti, support the people of cuba, continue to address the range of challenges we have from the record had. >> home request the president mentioned officials talk about gun violence he did some

thank you for joining us today. it's all yours. >> thank you very much so it's important that timely and with that research to b get the book out so let me start by asking at what point and how did you realize that it was material screening to be told so let's start with alex. >> i am very glad for one - - very bad for being here. thank you to the festival for organizing m this. it is about regional inequality those growing grabs one - - going gaps i have spent a lot of time around the country growing increasingly concerned or alarmed by the disparities around the country between winner takee all cities and left behind towns. and how to write about it or capture in the book so i finally decided to frame it around amazon to use that as a lands and not to a country in these growing divides. >> i started to read his burkett is grippingg and fascinating i recommend everybody to read it. so the main narrative that spoke to me to do research aboutbo all the written by prisoners that ended up in the us and other democratic

it by constructing profiles of us which they then sell to advertisers. these advertiserslehe try to ust as a form of it really behavioral manipulation. i like your new product, is based on of yourf previous history and were going to put in front of you images words and so far that we know have a great chance or have a chance of changing your mind. behavioral advertising based on your personal characteristics. i think the form of advertisings is nondestructive. in the surveillance that goes into it, is how dangerous that i think we had a withdrawal section 230 immunity for any company permits and engages itself inco behavioral advertisg or engaging in a sort of algorithmic implementation behind it. i would hope to answer your question directly, would help the new get bipartisan support and i was a human democrat friends across the aisle, we had to be able to agree on this, the behavioral advertising is encouraging master mass tracking mass surveillance mass taking of data so i propose that the place to start predict. cat: senator have you had any discussi

they used to call that community consent. but there's no consent involved they change the name now the college community notification and the problem with that you go to areas in north carolina in the area of duke university and you had u a 5 million people in that region who could be affected but when they did the community consent they reached only a tiny tiny percentage ofny these people, a few hundred people and that's typically what happens the example was in seattle where at one point they told people the same thing that we arepl testing artificial blod and if you're an accident from a trauma victim, we may put the artificial blood in you without asking, they were diluted by request for exemption. andda the exemption instead of being a bracelet that you had to wait 24 hours a day every day, a bracelet saying i declined the study and in this case i declined the study they got somebody request for bracelet that they ran out and they ran out for one year. during the one year, nobody could get exemption from the study. so i

you can use twitter, with the # live. as the near driver of economic growth and a long-term clean energy bill now, what does the labor community think about this generally and the bipartisan proposal? >> well, first of all, just let me say to you, sasha and to jason and the team at bipartisan policy center for bringing us together for this discussion. i absolutely love what we just heard from secretary buttigieg and i should just remind folks off the top the afl-cio is an organization of 12 and a half million working people and 56 different unions all across every sector of the economy and they all have an interest in infrastructure policy. so i'm bringing the voices of those workers with me today and we're in full support of the bipartisan infrastructure plan and we are working very hard right now to get it passed. i know there's some debate about the bipartisan deal, whether it goes far enough, but we think that it still brings the investment the american people have been waiting for for far too long as the secretary sa

you didn't leave us. you decided to stay around when we were making a wonderful transition and for that we owe you a great sense of gratitude so in 2018, you were selected unanimously as the third president and ceo at mmtc's history and you served in that position until your retirement may 31, 2021 and quite frankly a very disappointing retirement if i may say this to you publicly but we knew you had to go out and do other wonderfulul thingso i am just happy that you are well and for the great service and the relationship that you and i enjoyed. during your time as ceo and president when i had the opportunity to be chair at the time, you trim provided the tremendous leadership in the mission oriented goals. and a great personal sacrifice for you and your family a lot of this was your personal sacrifice and for that, we are personally gratified for that and so is our board and all of our supporters. .. >> so for all of your distinguished service and dedication we will have a copy of this resolution signed

they want to cancel us. how many of you are not sure what you can say right now, air worried about what you can say will be socially acceptable? i believe there's going to be a big backlash coming and it's going to come from all of us and there's nothing the democrats can do to stop us. [applause] >> now, in my two years in d.c., i've watched a lot of crazy things. you wouldn't believe how things work up there. the democrats want to defund the police, they want to gut funding for our military. we've watched the democrats push for open borders and closed schools. we watched them try to impeach a duly elected president twice for nonsense. but those aren't the craziest things they're trying to do. the craziest bill that they have is what they call the "for the people act" have you heard of it? so let's call it, it's not for the people. we should call it what it is, it's called the corrupt politicians act. [applause] >> so far we've been able to block this insane partisan power grab from the democrats. they're g

one 100% and we learn how to reengage with the world around us and the community around us, the actual people in physical spaces and stores and life in our place rather than hunkering down so that's my hope that these books will help with that. >> thank you very much, that was one of our questions, what they can do to make things better because art is a question which was mentioned in her book, a really good way to start realizing what we are doing and another question, it's not that we can just completely unplugged that, some of it depends on technology, doesn't have to depend on context. is there any way to search for brands, anyway we can do" did you come up with that either companies or we can search for those doing better thanth other? >> fortunately, i think the way most companies do business with china and the way they investigate their factories in china, i don't think there is any company out there that could safely guarantee consumers that there is no forced labor in their supply chain because for the most part the t quality of e audits the companies doing are very weak, they

and the rest of us are perfect for it. but coming to the realization, it was for me because at first i had an intolerance of any evidence of being less than perfectly actuated by a spirit of service that i began to realize that he is a human being as we all are is really important to not expect perfection because when we dusted to be disappointed but rather to appreciate people not only achieve great things but inspired untold members of other people to also pursue a selfless agenda for their lives. so i i love him and us to love m and i think anybody's is. medical science perfectly. peter: will professionally, for that book in your own it person on the lead you. harriet: women before that on the book, i think that i was probably inspired by the film, starring audrey hepburn but very different for other rules, she was not sort of this, she was actually a none is deeply conflicted by her political release and passion and torn between being good none idea some survey and quiet none. and it being hero pretty and summarily ins

us to reemerge in the world. all of the things manufacturing enabled, everything we use every day, the technology is inherent in enabling those products. if you want to make an impact, this is the sector. when you look at what technology is doing, it is enabling employees. how do we deploy it together to get there faster to make sure that -- that workers are in the safest conditions, it is a top priority for every manufacturer. if you're able to use sensors not only to make sure that you are not in a place you would rather not be, but also to get ahead of and not only toen make sure that you are not in place you would rather not be but also to get ahead of maintenance and to have real timeni estimates of what is happening and what you need to plan for. that will keep operations going and make us more productive and manufacturing continue to be so competitive here in the west. >> to be clear, jobs are not changing. a lot of the debate is jobs going away being created? my answer is yes. sometimes a automation chang

become parents with us. if nothing else ask the school principal every school as a curriculumdirector . you've got to ask questions in such a way you get them talking. he notes and then i also forced them to talk to the superintendent. then i ask them to share with other. they need to have bylaws in their community because parents need to be activated and mobilized to go to their elected school board and hold them accountable. >> let's pick up that point, about working together maybe with other parents to get back and imagine if your parentsout there sometimes , who else feels the same way when in fact they may well be part of the silent majority . what is your experience in working with other parents? >> i would say many parents are afraid. if they don't want to speak up, they don't want to cause controversy s. not necessarily it will reflect on them but because of the impact it will have on their children and how their children may betreated by others . so i volunteer a lot at my son's school especially. u

here is what is apparently so outrage us. -- outrageous. they want to wind down a few emergency covid voting procedures, including drive-thru voting and polling places that are open all night long. i'm serious. that's what this is all about. that they want to wind down two covid voting procedures, drive-thru voting and polling place that are open 24/7. because of the pandemic, for the first time ever some places in texas experimented with these brand new unusual measures. but now winding them down is somehow an assault on democracy? really? if texas is not interested in permanently letting people vote from their car windows or at 3:00 in the morning, then president biden says, quote, they want to make it so hard and inconvenient, they hope people don't vote at all simply because you can't vote all night. really? these brand new exceptions for a hundred-year pandemic are supposed to now be sacred pillars of our system? things that we did last year to deal with a 100-year pandemic? to get rid of any of that is a threat to our system? voter i.

protecting public safety and the role of policing the police chief in atlanta, thank you for joining us, chief. >> thanks for having me, i appreciate it. >> i have no easy questions for you as you would expect and we will start with being in wlouisville, crime was up and t that time for you previously worked 25 years. crime is up in virtually every fixity, shootings, homicides up. recently you noteds homicide roast knives you present last year end they are authorized now 104 so far this year. why is this happening? for so many years of declines, we used to see it going down steadily year after year, what is the change in 2020 which continued into 2021? >> i appreciate it, i think you're asking the right question and that is, if you find the solution, who practically got where it is and when i look at louisville and atlanta and georgia first of all, in the southern states we have had lax gun laws, it lends itself for high proliferation and that already. there is this component to it, individuals already marginalized but further set off to decide particular. if you have young people who d

, but today he's going to take us through the capitol and tell us what is really there that you don't see right away but it's somehow is available as you walk-through the capitol. steve, take us on a tour of the unknown. >> thank you, jane. ghosts have been interfering to present in the program. this is the spookiest picture in the capitol building. the oldest photo known and i think it looks pretty spooky. i get asked what are ghosts in definition for this purpose and i have come up with the idea that ghosts -- the capitol is filled with spirit. we can talk about those, but some spirits arouse fear. we all believe in spirits in the capitol, democracy and, of course, freedom, has fans on top of the dome and there's even a spirit connected with that, philip reed, this is probably not a photograph of philip reed but the man who installed statute freedom on top of the capitol and probably worked with him. enslaved man who helped create the statute of freedom and he actually got his freedom while he was working on it, slavery was abolished in washington, d.c. while he was working on the s

governors have a new credibility, governors have a newt status, let us use it well and let us use it to do well. thank you all very much. >> remarks from arkansas governor asa hutchison, here he is discussing the economic recovery and policy decisions for upcoming year. >> thank you very much, welcome back, everyone. our first order of business is to move the resolution to elect the o

why don't you tell us more about, you know, the trail of the books and where do your books take us to and why? why don't we start with you, amelia, all the way to china? >> yeah, yeah, my book starts with an average american consumer, her she's a mother of two and actually working on decorating her child's halloween party and that's when she comes across this very, very cheaply purchased product from kmart, these gravestones that were made of styrofoam and sat in her storage for two years before she opened it, somebody had purchased because insanely cheap, too good of a deal to pass on, such a bargain deal and, but nobody actually had a real need for it, it sat in storage for two years before she remembered she had it and when she finally opened it, she was shocked to receive an sos letter from a prisoner in china who manufactured this in a labor camp and the book tells the story how he landed in labor camp and most importantly what are the problems in our supply chain that make it easy for things to be manufactured in labor camps to be sold in a kmart in portland, oregon. >> fulfillm

you joined us over ten years ago as the chief operating officer. you didn't leave us. you decided to stay around while we were making this transition and for that we owed a great sense of depth and gratitude. in 2018, you were selected as the third president and ceo and you served in that position until your retirement on may 31, 2021 and quite frankly a very disappointing retirement but the reason you had to go on to do other things we are not complaining. i'm just happy that you are well and for the great service and relationship we enjoy. during your time as ceo and president when i had the opportunity to be the chair you provided tremendous leadership and commitment to all of the mission oriented goals and sometimes i'm sorry to say, a great sacrifice to you and the founding and i would like to say about all of the wonderful things you did for that we are personally gratified. for all of the sacrifices that you made in this steadfast and creative resolve to increase funding through difficult times as you know in the pandemic it was doing all of the social unrest bu

that certainly isn't language that i would use. whether they are rioting at the capitol or federal buildings in portland or elsewhere or who identify with the left or the right. over the past year by criminal rioters. >> manyou americans first got to know you from the photo on the sixth.ix who was that directed to? >> i was entering the house chamber the morning i of the sih to go in for the beginning of the electoral count and those were demonstrators on the plaza on the east side standing behind barricades. when i walked by that particular group of folks were standing there peacefully behind g barricades off the plaza and i waved to them, pumped my fist and thanked them for being there and they had every right. >> after what happened, do you regret that at all? >> no w because i don't know wht of those protesters participated in the criminal riots and it is a slur on the thousands, tens of thousandss of people who came to the capital that day to demonstrate peacefully to lock them in with the criminal riots and say you are all ba

[laughter] i think a lot of us come from similar backgrounds. they work hard, serve the communities and serve their country. that's why i moved so quickly to pass the rescue plan. to save jobs and businesses and lives and we did. more than a 600,000 jobs per month since i've taken office so over 3 million jobs all told. [applause] the fastest at this point of thanany administration on record because of you all. we brought this economy back from the brink, tax cuts and working families. we designed the strategy not only for a temporary boost, but the way the foundation for a long term boomed. when i arrived in office we had a long time since the federal government worked hard for working people. things have been great for the corporations and the wealthy folks at the top. those 55 major corporations the past three years paid a zero and federal taxes making over $40 billion. they had no complaints. when i put my hand on the bible, january 20th, took the oath of office and i made a commitment to the american people we are going to change the paradi

world around us, with the community around us. the people and physical spaces and stores and just life that's in our place. rather than just hunkering down on the screen area so that is my hope, that that both these folks will help with that. thank you very much because actually one of our questions chris was about what can we do? what can i do to make things better because if this is so big. i think what amelia mentioned in her book is a really good place to start realizing what we're doing and take action. and there's another question is , i'm sure the same is it is not that we can completely unblock. some of this depends on certain technology for example those who depend on context. is there a way to search for brands that are relatively ethical? is there any way we can find those? those other companies or places in which for those that are doing better than others? >> unfortunately i have to say the way that most companies do business with china and the way that they investigate their factories in china, i don't really think t

." >> host: thanks for joining us in houston texas. today i am honored and happy to visit with rosa brooks, the author of an interesting book about policing and her experience of policing, "tangled up in blue policing the american city." thank you for being on and for having me. i look forward to the conversation. i've got toe start off with one pressingre question. what in the world made you leave the confines of the classroom, your home and get trained as a police officer to hit the streets in washington, d.c.? >> if you asked my family that, they would say insanity, some kind of a midlife crisis. but i was curious. that was probably the driving force. when i found out a dc had a reserve officer program where you are not just directing traffic but you can become a swarm armed police officer i thought that's crazy. you're going to give a gun to a law professor. it's partly that. plain curiosity. oand through the other thing tt you know very well it's been in the spotlight for years now. you want to change something, i think you need t

tell us what the fec is doing to sure more airways are able to get out to the market and use 5g. >> absolutely. i think a few years ago focusing all of its energy in the early 5g days, airways that are high up, lots of capacity but their signals don't travel very far so that means you have to have lots of ground-based facilities to make them viable and that is a costly thing to do so if we relied on millimeter spectrum from a fluid growth the digital divide of 5g. the good news is in the last year several months we have recognized millimeter waves mid band spectrum, that is the peak and how we deploy 5g across the country because it has a mix of capacity but it is ideal for the technology an early this year we entered the spectrum, we are going to get the licenses aftermarket shortly and another spectrum this year week disturbed more than 250 licenses and travel communities to help them improve productivity where they are and walking federal authorities to what's next and what we can make available 5g and coming forward. we are doing a lot to fix where we were and it will help in this technolo
