Is expected to sign that legislation. A gyro doctor from gettysburg, pennsylvania to the line of gyro copter from gettysburg, pennsylvania to the lawn of the capital. We would like to hear from you. The numbers are on screen. Send us a tweet. Send a comment on facebook or send us an email. Well be looking at the front page today of the Washington Post and the picture of that gyro copter as it was about to land on the west lawn of the u. S. Capitol. This is a picture taken from one eyewitness on the u. S. Capitol. The question is, how could this happen you and has is following the story from roll call joins us on the phone. Hannah hess works for all and is joining us on the phone. This is the most secure airspace in the world and he was able to penetrate it. Guest that is exactly right. And it appears he was working in concert with the Tampa Bay Times. They posted the story before he cuts down on the lawn. The reporters reached out to both the secret service and the Capitol Police, and there is an unidentified sergeant who said they knew nothing about this mans arrival before they came. Capitol Police Arrested him, but there were few answers for the press that was assembled yesterday on the capitol lawn waiting for the Capitol Police chief to address them about what Capitol Police knew, when they knew it, and how close they were communicating with the secret service and whether or not this could have been prevented. We even had senator Lindsey Graham come out yesterday and suggests this gyro copter should have been shot out of the sky. Host let me ask you about the tampa bay newspaper, because as you just indicated, the headline is paper is along for the ride are. Pointing out store is also Available Online at washington. Come. What are you hearing on that front . Guest its an important question to consider. Again, there are not really answers from the Capitol Police on how this would have been handled also handled. It is an intelligence question but its obviously important to think about what the newspapers responsibility is full survey could have shot down this plane. My sources tell me that the cop that was first seeing the fly come in was on the radio saying does this guy have clearance . Im seeing this guy landing on the capital lawn on the capitol lawn. There was a lot of confusion. And the woman who was confused on october 3, 2013, and drove her car into the security gate outside the capital. And in that case, lethal force was used and she was shot to death in her car. What is the appropriate response and how would that have changed if they had more intelligence about what was about to happen . Host let me give you some information about the gyrocopter did that weighs about 254 pounds and the range between takeoff and landing is about 70 to 80 miles. In drive, its about a twohour drive from washington, d. C. To gettysburg and in that entire time he was not stopped by anyone, despite the billions that we pay for norad and other security. And with other security concerns, there is a piece that the Washington Post points out and also some changes. What can you tell us . Guest i reported just a couple of hours before this gyrocopter landed that the office of police had received notice that one of the deputy chiefs would be taking over the resigning t retiring capital chiefs. He had submitted his letter of resignation to the Capitol Police board. Its still unclear if the sergeant at arms at the capital will act his resignation. They have also apparently challenged him to come up with some solutions for how to handle security concerns around the capital. The capitol. There is tension in the rankandfile of the leadership at it raises questions whether or not indication is adequate when there is an emergency. The results of a scare there was also a scare this past saturday. There was a suicide on the west front. It appeared to be unrelated, but also cost the lockdown of the capital. Host there are Security Issues desk covering Security Issues for rollcall, hannah hess, thank you for being with us. Guest thank you. Host we want to hear from you. The headline from the amended Atlanta Journalconstitution is senate oks medicare fix. The president is expected to sign the measure. Here is this tweet on the gyrocopter. Lets hear from you. Bob is first up, Houston Texas democrat line. Good morning to you. Caller good morning. How are you . Host fine, thank you. How are you . Caller ok. Listen, i have two concerns about our democracy and that is why i called in some concerns i have are gerrymandering and the money in politics. And that is why i called in. The two concerns i have are gerrymandering and the money in politics. It is no longer the peoples house. The last election that we had where only 30 of the people voted, the split between democrats and republicans was about 5050, but yet the house went to a majority of Something Like 40 more republicans than democrats. I think what we have is both parties not willing to do anything about it and both of them are participating in the gerrymandering. Then we have two cases now that the Supreme Court has heard about gerrymandering, one of them from alabama and the other one was from arizona about the legislature wishing to overturn a citizens prerogative where they went up and set up a nonpartisan commission to set boundary lines and the legislature wants to take that over. Host bob thanks very much for the call from houston, texas. The numbers are on the screen. A story by Jonathan Martin inside the New York Times as Hillary Clinton is wrapping up her visit to iowa with a vignette for business coders for Business Owners. When bill clinton loved his governorship in the 1980s and how he was able to come back in arkansas politics. The story is available atn ytimes. Com by Jonathan Martin. Sally is next. What is on your mind . Caller hi, thank you very much. I have a comment and eric west will stop and a request. I appreciate cspan and have abridged have listened to it for years, but im on a mission to amend the constitution to say money is not reach and corporations are not natural persons money is not speech and corporations are not natural persons so we can regain a voice our government. It seems to be completely unheard of now. And also, if you would have david cobb moved to amend on the washington journal who was a Green Party Candidate in 2008 and hes very informed on amending the constitution. Were doing another initiative in washington it and we are just starting to get signatures for it. Host sally, thank you. By the way, the head of the Libertarian Party join us on sunday. And we do all always cover the third Party Conventions leading up to elections. A friend of senator menendez just had indicted for Medicare Fraud where he pocketed over 150 million. Bernie republican line. Good morning. Caller good morning and thanks for taking my call. Very simply, if you want to reduce money in politics eliminate reelections. For instance, give the president one term of eight years, maybe 12, or maybe 10. And you can do that with everyone else. First of all, they will be fewer elections and less money required for elections. Also, if someone wanted a corrupt official, they could give them all the money they want but once hes elected and cannot be reelected, they cannot count on him to do anything that he doesnt want to do. That is my suggestion. Remove reelections from the senate, from the president the the presidency and the house. Host in the wall street journal a piece that is getting a lot of attention this country and in europe as europe is charging google over its searches. It could lead to broader action by the european union. And below that, Clinton Charity to keep foreign donors. Vicki, thanks for being with us. Caller my suggestion is for all human beings. The problem is, this is why white people treat black people like animals. Until white people realize that black people are human beings all minorities, we are human beings and then they can understand us and feel the way they are supposed to feel about all human beings. Host vicki from california. In politico. Com, this story says this senate names and entire budget panel to negotiate spending blueprint. The Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell may need the entire senate. Skipping over some of the senior members who borrowed the gop who barred the gop from boosting the entire markup. It could make for some interesting talks. Senator pat toomey, for instance, would like to keep a higher threshold for defense money, even something his fellow senators want to trim. And senator bob corker is a big backer for delayed mandatory spending and using the spending hikes elsewhere. The full story is Available Online at politico. Com. In texas, democrat line, good morning. Caller good morning and thank you for taking my call. You are my favorite host. I have a favor to ask come up and im a little nervous so bear with me. Every time a hear someone get on your program, or any of the washington journal programs and talk about entitlements, they always call entitlements Social Security, medicare, and medicaid , and they are not the only entitlements. Any Government Employee or any government benefit that is guaranteed by the government is an entitlement. That includes all of their health care, their pensions, and i wish you would point that out when someone mentions that again. Host ok, bob, thanks for the call from texas. The headline of the front page of usa today after the pilot landed on the capital. Doug use is 61 years old. And a story that is getting attention is that the Tampa Bay Times new about this several months ago. Bruce, welcome to the program. Caller good morning. If you will give me a little bit of time to try to elaborate can i will try to be at concise as possible. As concise as possible. The first thing is illegal immigrants. I live in southeast baltimore. Mayor Rawlings Blake of the city barack obama put out an executive order to stop discrimination supposedly. But it was really to protect illegal immigrants. Im tired of it. My neighborhood has an awful lot of illegal immigrants, and when a lot of them moved here, a lot of hispanics moved here 10 years ago i always said they had the right to be here. But what i noticed is, they show no respect for the rest of the neighborhood, made no attempt to simulate to assimilate. And nancy pelosi, speaker of the house, hires them illegally and there is a lot of noise in my neighborhood and im sick of it. A quick segue, the guy that was talking about entitlements, i worked at a steel plant for 29 years. And because of what happened with pension benefit guarantee the corporation and took our benefits, up to 300 million the last 10 years and our representatives have done nothing about it. And mr. Ben corning then i went to that i went to a number of times about it, he seems to be more important more interested in Trayvon Martin and the ferguson issue than he is about all the steelworkers and the 30,000 people that work there. Im tired of it. Im going to tell you another thing. Im tired of the National Public radio stations, the guys like mark steiner and dan rogers that are always preaching racism. They always assume that white people are white supremacist. Im tired of it. Im openminded photo i except everybody for who they are. I believe in what Martin Luther king said about being judged by the content of the character. I am going to say this. I have to be careful. I do want to be offending anybody. The wainwright people are being treated, its terrible. Host we have a few minutes left and then to members of congress will be joining us. This story that we talked about earlier about the Capitol Police chief leadership question, this is the story that she posted back in february. Also posting concerns about the security at the u. S. Capitol and whether or not there are enough checkpoints in parking gorgeous. That stories from june of last year. Lets go to ken in virginia. Caller good morning. I worked on capitol hill, and im not disclosing what agency or work for. Of the fact of the matter is the newspaper didnt have the right to withhold information on something that is violating the law and there is a nofly zone, regardless of what when you are trying to make or how innocent it may seem to stop it may seem. It can encourage others to violate the law. Its very dangerous. There are quite a few visitors to the capital and a put a puts people in unnecessary fear and can cause panic. Host a story this morning says that the pilot landed on a different location at the west front, but was prepared for what was happening. But he did notify anyone. Caller that is correct, the plan was for him to land on these signs new the Supreme Court. But that did not happen. The east side of the Supreme Court. But that did not happen. It shows they were out to get a story. It shows the interest our media have over protecting our nation. Host thanks for the call. Story from the Washington Post is is the paper along for the ride . The front page of the l. A. Times, courtesy of the museum newseum. And also the front page of the boston globe, Aaron Hernandez guilty of murder. Mike is next from a hobby arizona mojave, arizona. Caller i have a couple of comments about Navy Recruiting advertising. A specific one where they have a person talking, probably an actress, that said she promises to obey those appointed over her. I think the proper statement would be to say she would obey the lawful orders of those over her, not just any. The second comment is that with made a commitment to go anywhere in the world to protect democracy. What is democracy here and what is democracy their . Democracy there . I think they were more advertisement than recruitment. Host thank you. The front page of the washington times, the selling of the new hillary. And governor Chris Christie travels across New Hampshire calling for changes in Social Security and the impact it has on the president ial campaign. They travel to nashua, New Hampshire for the first the nation leadership summit. Next is don from greenville, ohio, good morning. Caller good morning. I would like to talk a little bit about third party. Mainly, i think weve had five other parties run for president. I was like to say they should get together and call the new party we, the people of the United States. Without that you will never get campaignfinance reform. You will not get term limits. Because people, wake up. These two parties are not the same anymore. I would also like to see Bernie Sanders president of this new party. That is all i have to say. Host thank you for the call. From inside the washington times, obamacare customers feeling the tax pain. The tax bill came do for many obamacare customers yesterday with at least half of those who got Health Care Subsidies in 2014 having to pay money back to the irs. That does not mean they were not Horror Stories on april 15. The deadline to file, John Koskinen said was better than predicted. Here is a portion of yesterdays hearing. [video clip] senator mccaskill when we vent frustration by cutting funding who are replenishing . John kiskinen ultimately, you are punishing taxpayers. The people that get it worse are the people working in our call centers, whose satisfaction comes from helping people and they feel they have the resources to do that. Senator mccaskill your budget has been cut by 18 since the scandal has come up. What is the galway now for a taxpayer who has a problem . The call weight now for a taxpayer who has a problem . What is the average amount of time on the phone . Commissioner koskinen about 20 to 30 minutes. Senator mccaskill and once they answer the phone, what are the answers you are able to give after these are coney and cut these are coney and cuts . Commissioner koskinen about 60 of the calls are not going through. When the system gets overloaded and we know you are going to be there too long, you will simply get disconnected. You aggravate the problem because people will have to call back. On average, people are calling back to her three or four times just to get into the q2 weight 30 minutes. Just to get into the line to wait 30 minutes. Host the chances of being audited by our by the irs because of budget cuts are now less than 1 . Don from greenville, ohio, independent line. Youre on the air. Caller i just was on, but i must not have gotten disconnected. I was talking about another problem and i think this has to do with Supreme Court judges. I would like the people of the United States to be able to if they run and they like the president , the people of the United States should have the right to vote for them. I dont think they should be able to be put in there for the rest of their lives. Its very important nato ge
