Felt i was attacking him. I felt he was asked a tough but fair question. We agreed to disagree. Mr. Trump did interviews over the weekend that attacked me personally. Ive decided not to respond. Mr. Trump is an interesting man whos captured the attention of the electorate. Thats why hes leading in the polls. Trump, who is the front runner, will not apologize. And i certainly will not apologize for doing good journalism. So ill continue doing my job without fear or favor. And mr. Trump, i expect, will continue with what has been a Successful Campaign thus far. This is a tough business, and its time now to move forward. Megyn kelly responding last night. Hillary clinton at her event yesterday on Student Loans, she had a news conference. She reacted to last thursday nights gop debate and what mr. Trump has been saying about megyn kelly. None of the candidates offered solutions for how to make College Affordable or how to raise incomes for hardworking families. They dont even talk about the real pressures facing american families. While what donald trump said about megyn kelly is outrageous, what the rest of the republicans are saying about all women is also outrageous. They brag about slashing Womens Health care funding. They say they would force women who have been raped to carry their rapists child. And we dont hear any of them supporting raising the minimum wage, paid leave for new parents, access to quality childcare, equal pay for women, or anything else that will help to, you know, give women a chance to get ahead. Megyn kelly is a strong woman and more than capable of defending herself against donald trump. Im worried about what republican policies would do to the rest of americas women, and i will continue to speak up and speak out about that today and through the rest of this campaign and in the white house. That was Hillary Clinton yesterday responding to the trump kelly back and forth. And theres this in the newspapers this morning. The Washington Post, clinton takes an oath on turning over emails. Democratic president ial front runner Hillary Clinton facing questions over her use of a private email system. The secretary of state signed a statement over the weekend over penalty of perjury that she has turned over to the government all of the emails that were federal records. The statement, which the state department submitted to a federal court monday, match what is she and her campaign have said for months about her exclusive use of a private email account and server to conduct business. So the latest on that from the Washington Post this morning. And then there is also this in politics courtesy of the nuseum here in washington from the Atlanta Journal constitution, cruz keeps focus on the south. Texas u. S. Senator ted cruz was flocked after a solemn Prayer Service in birmingham suburbs. Ovations greeted him long before he took the stage at a standing room rally and more than 1,000 people crammed into a town hall to eat free ice cream and hear him speak. Its the biggest commitment yet of any president ial candidate to the s. E. C. Primary. The collection of mostly Southern States voting as a bloc on march 1st. By the way, also jeb bush is going to be talking this evening in california. Hell be giving a Foreign Policy speech. Well have coverage of that. Itll be airing at 11 00 p. M. Eastern time, then 8 00 p. M. On the pacific. Politico has a story this morning with the headline that jeb bush is expected to assail clinton and obama on iraq. He will ask, where was the secretary of state clinton in all of this . So tune in if youre interested in that. 11 00 p. M. Eastern time. Part of our road to the white house coverage here on cspan. Then heres this headline in the chicago sun times. Its about aaron schock. Many of you know that name. The illinois congressman who was forced to step down. Schock to the federal government, lets make a deal. Lynn sweet reporting that documents show the former congressman has been seeking immunity from prosecutors. Also another headline for you this morning. This is one many of you are familiar with. Usa today, a state of emergency has been declared in ferguson as violence erupts there in that city. Police in st. Louis on monday. You can see the picture here. Arrested dozens of people during protests at a courthouse. The demonstrations were part of events dubbed moralmonday. Clergy members prayed in front of the building and spread oil on it saying they were anointing it. Author and activist cornel west along with other prominent protesters arrested at the demonstration. West and others jumped over the metal barricades around the building and walked toward officers guarding it. The protesters sat in front of the buildings entrance and police surrounded the group. Overnight in ferguson, at least three people were shot and four arrested as peaceful protests became violent. A young man shot there in that city as well. So state of emergency declared in ferguson. Weve been talking about Student Loan Debt in this country, asking all of you to tell us your experience with it. We divided the lines. If you have Student Loan Debt, dial in at 2027488000. If youve paid off those loans, dial in at 2027488001. Lets go to oregon. Eugene, no Student Loans. Caller good morning. Glad to be on the program. First of all, no Student Loan Debt. No student should have to pay for going to college. The English Program they had where any kid could go to school was great. I think theyve changed it a little bit now. Over in cuba, students get a chance to go to School Without having to pay, and theyre very educated. So we, as being one of the leading countries in the world, the richest country in the world, should not have our students burdened down with all of this debt. We sit here and talk about some kids shouldnt go to college. Thats a lie. Every kid should have the ability to go to college. College is about expanding your horizons, about getting to know the arts, to appreciate the interactivity with other people from other cultures. Vocation is about work. So the two can go together, but you dont want to eliminate one for the other. So when you hear people talking about they shouldnt some people shouldnt go to college, that is a racist because i came up during a time when they said the same exact thing back in the 60s. You got certain people that need to go do plumbing work and certain people that need to go do brick laying. But guess what . We had some of the best educated carpenters, plumbers, and mechanics because we were able to go to college, get an education, and then enhance our vocation. So i want our country to realize and people stop talking about because everybody out there talking has a son, a grandson, a niece, a daughter that needs education. Okay, eugene. Got your point. Eugene arguing for free college education. Listen to what Bernie Sanders, senator from vermont, running for the democratic nomination, had to say on this recently. I have introduced legislation and will fight as president of the United States to make certain that every Public College and university in america is tuition free. [ cheers and applause ] we must also significantly reduce student debt. It is insane that people in this room are paying 8 , 9 , 10 Interest Rates on student debt when you could refinance your home for 2 or 3 . Senator Bernie Sanders on this issue of Student Loan Debt. By the way, the hill newspaper with this headline. Sandsers pulls crowd of 27,500 people in los angeles. Large crowds turning out for the independent senator from vermont. Marie in santa ana, california. You paid off those Student Loans. What was it like . Caller i attended college in the late 60s as well as my husband. Neither of us accrued debt for our bachelors degrees. My husband went to medical school. We did borrow money for medical school. My profession is im an educational therapist. I work with students who have learning difficulties. Here in california students must graduate in the top third of their High School Classes in order to attend public universities. The fact is, here in california one out of four of them have to take remedial classes. They have to pay tuition for those remedial classes. Yet, those classes do not apply toward their degrees. I believe what we need to do is we need to reform our k12 school systems. This is terrible. Also, the situation is even worse for Community College students. If you look at the data, which i keep track of, over 50 of the students who attend Community Colleges also have to take remedial classes. In english, reading, and math. Our k12 system is increasing the cost of Higher Education. Okay, marie. Mick in powell, ohio. No Student Loans. Good morning. Caller hi. Thanks for your time. I have no Student Loans. I was not in the position to attend college in the 70s when i got out of high school. As now, theres an enormous discrepancy Higher Education, as it exists right now, is a subsidy for the upper middle class families who are in the position to send their children to school at the expense of the less fortunate. I believe that a person who wants to gets a degree in entomology, modern dance should be allowed to do that. But that they should bear the consequences of the decision they made and pay the loans that they took in order to subsidize that curiosity, as reagan put it, that intellectual going to grade 1 through 12. Every time i turn around, theyre asking for School Supplies and a backpack that im supposed to supply them with. How am i supposed to have any faith in the system if im supposed to be supporting these people all the way through their Higher Education . And then even now, youre saying were not they have to pay their debt after 20 years. What kind of education is that, that you dont have to pay for something you signed up for . All right. Thanks, donald. On twitter, heres some reaction from our viewers. One person says, Student Loans shouldnt have a high interest fee. There shouldnt be big profits from this as if a business or a mortgage loan. Then you have this from one of our viewers. I recommend going to a vocational school. I have a basw, and most jobs require a masters. I dont want to pay Student Loans forever. Then elliott says, government should only give grants for degrees and certificates that guarantee employment. Jim in new york, youve paid off those loans. Good morning to you. Caller hello . Jim, youre on the air. Caller oh, firsttime caller. In terms of not having any loans, my parents came out of the depression and world war ii. What they taught us was to pay your bills and then save, save, save. Based on that, they were able to get me through college with no loans. I had one son under the clinton years. I had saved up enough money, so i kind of would what i was able to do is take out a loan while i was making money on our investments and then when the loan came due, pay the whole thing off. Okay. Caller if i had more than one kid, then there would have been big troubles. I think the problem also is with the colleges. You know, they always say people graduate and they have 88 or whatever of success rate. My son, having gone through johnson and wales for a business degree now is a waiter. Hes a waiter at the same job he was at when he was getting these degrees. He cant find a job now at this point. Last thing i just wanted to say, with my mother, where we grew up, she was a member of the school board forever and a day. Her theory was not everyone should have to go to college. Vocational schools were underrated, and that was one of her big pushes. She was able to get where we were at. All right, jim. Some other quick headlines for you as well. Another one on campaign 2016. Governor rick terry stops paying his staff as fundraising has faltered. He stopped paying his staff at the National Headquarters in austin as well as in early caucus and primary states of iowa and south carolina. According to a republican familiar with the campaign, the Campaign Manager told Staff Members friday, the day after the first republican president ial debate, that theyd no longer be paid and were free to seek other jobs. So far, most aides have stuck with perry. Then this on the front of the wall street journal this morning on china. Wall street journal reporting that china acts to devalue its currency. Chinas central bank devalued its tightly controlled currency tuesday at the worlds second largest economy continues to sputter. In an apparent effort to blunt criticism over chinas Exchange Rate policy, the peoples bank of china took the step with an eye toward making the currency value more market based. Midpoint or fixing will now be based on how it closes in the previous trading session. Until now, the fixing had been entirely determined by the central bank itself. Then theres also this from the New York Times this morning. The trial for that Washington Post reporter being held in iran is over. A verdict is expected soon for the reporter. And then theres this from the business and tech section of the wall street journal this morning. Startups vie to build an uber for health care. Listen to this. This app, called heal, is one of several startups putting a hiketech spin on oldfashioned house calls or inperson visits since they can take place anywhere. The Services Provide a range of nonemergency medical care from giving flu shots to treating strep throat and treating lacerations. The Companies Use slightly different models. Pager in new york city dispatches doctors or nurse p k practitioners via uber for 200. Another promises to get a doctor to your sofa in under an hour for 99. A medical assistant goes along to do the driving and the parking. So theres these apps that are starting up across the country where a doctor is on demand and will come to your house. They dont take insurance, but you can either pay out of your Health Savings accounts for these services or submit the bill to your insurance company. Kaitlin in virginia. You have Student Loan Debt. Good morning to you. Go ahead. Caller good morning. Yes, i graduated college in 2013 from Florida State university, and i have still got 30,000 in debt. I deferred loan payments for about a year and then realized how much interest had accrued. For the last several month, ive been paying about 350 a month in Student Loans. You know, it doesnt give me an opportunity to save, to get ahead in the game as an adult. I really think what they need to do is more education about when you seek out Student Loans. When i was in school, you know, theres a day where everyone gets Financial Aid sent into their bank account, thousands of dollars. And you dont really understand the consequences of it and what youll be paying after school. Yeah, how old are you . Caller 24. 24. And how much do you have in Student Loan Debt . Caller about 30,000. And it was about 35,000. Okay. So you pay about 350 a month. What does that mean for your monthly bills . How much of that eats up your income . Caller oh, its all of my savings. I cant manage to save any money, really, by paying off these loans. If i want to get another car, its going to be hard to do that. Id like to buy a home im living in right now, put money towards a mortgage instead of rent. Its going to be hard to do that to, you know, save enough for a down payment. How much is your rent . Caller 1,000 a month. And i share that with a roommate. So 1,000 split between the two of you . Caller yeah. All right. Caller not including bills and whatnot. Right. So your student loan is almost as much as your rent payment. Caller yeah, kind of, you know. Right. Kaitlin, 24 years old in virginia, appreciate the phone call.
