you two quick ones first i know north korea is the last one was in two thousand and ten obviously north korea has made a lot of strides in its nuclear program and you list eleven fielded or in development nuclear delivery systems from north korea  review is kind of specifically tailored to north korea or focus on the north korean threat and i know we you mentioned briefing russia on this was china also briefed on this review  capabilities in the nuclear triad that exist today as well as the recapitalization that's discussed in the report and some of these supplementary capabilities all of those things in various circumstances would have a political ability and the type of hypothetical scenarios that we worry about with north korea unfortunately some of the our concerns that we used to have a few years ago have become quite frankly not so hypothetical anymore in terms of the threat that we face and so i think whether it's with north korea in and demonstrating that we have a range of options that we have flexible options that these are credible and can be employed when necessary i think is very important to reinforcing deterrence certainly wouldn't want that regime or others to wrongly conclude that there's a lack of resolve on our part should they threaten the use of nuclear weapons or use nuclear weapons against the united states so i think in this circumstance having this more flexible set of capabilities that we can tailor to the circumstances whether it be with north korea or another to reinforce that deterrence and this is a much more challenging activity than twenty years ago or more we've really got to watch out for that and we've long sought to have dialogue with china just pacifically to discuss and enhance our understanding of nuclear weapon issues to help manage the risk of miscalculation misperceptions so yes we well certainly the nuclear posture review talks about one of its aims deterring a north korean nuclear attack and on that we're very explicit that clearly these capabilities are intended to deter north korea from  nuclear attack on united states or our allies another element of our deterrent posture with north korea is the ballistic missile defense system that the united states employs one of the things that it does is it reduces the likelihood that north korea would contemplate or use a ballistic missile to attack the united states knowing that we have a capability to defeat that and if north korea would in a hypothetical launch a ballistic missile tipped with a nuclear weapon at the united states that we intercepted it's not the sort of thing that we would say oh well that's the end of the story let's go back to the way things were before that kind of attack on the united states or our allies we defeated is something that we would regard extremely seriously for obvious reasons and so ballistic missile defenses that are credible and effective are very important as part of our to turn equation both for the united states as well as for our friends and allies around the world and that's why you've seen us over the years in the united states defense department not only deploy some of these capabilities on the home territory of our allies where they host them but also have our forces that are deployed there increasingly have those capabilities because the connection between our allies security in an attack with shorter range missiles and that against the united states homeland are increasingly being driven together and we have to have an integrated set of capabilities which is what we're pursuing and we've requested money from the congress both last year you will see that again in our budget proposal this year to the congress for substantial funds for a ballistic missile defense system our nuclear capabilities are also very important in that deterrence equation how we message how we talk about the circumstances is also part of our messaging to north korea and you'll see some passages in the n p r speak directly to north korea about our thinking in that regard i think first of all the nuclear posture review was something that the president instructed us that the defense department energy department state department and others to construct and so certainly in this most basic level it's a response to instruction from the president that we do this type of review and so it clearly reflects the priorities of his administration that have to come forward and we were given certain criteria under which to look i do think though the  its adjustments in how we approach nuclear weapons and the delivery systems is really driven by the threat environment which continues to evolve in very concerning ways you mentioned the congressional reaction i think one of the things that i've heard when i've been up with senators and congressmen is increasing concern across the political spectrum about what's going on in that environment about the change in the security threats facing the united states and our allies a lot of concern about what  the direction in russia and the type of capabilities and doctrine that the russian government is pursuing and indeed some of its behavior is you know against its near abroad and against other countries certainly china is also an area that you mention the congress john a lot of concern there about its increasing capabilities in north korea so i think that security environment is really what's informing and driving some of the changes here again for a more flexible set of capabilities for tailored deterrents so that there's no one size fits all approach to every circumstance and to how we're going to deter and deter adversaries and assure allies your other question about low yield nuclear weapons again nuclear weapons have been in the u s arsenal for decades and the the obvious point behind that is in both republican and democratic administrations they've been present and what is contemplated here for the recapitalization of the nuclear triad i would point out many of those programs were begun in the request of the congress in the last administration and so i thought you think there is there is a bipartisanship around the need for a strong effective nuclear triad and i'm optimistic that the congress will again support this kind of budget request that the president will come forward with shortly in accordance with his statements that he made before about wanting a robust you know again it's a capability the united states possessed for decades after its introduction before that system was later in its service life i want to speak for the the previous administration in terms of their decision making but i will speak for what the nuclear posture review calls for which is studying the appropriate way to move forward for an reintroduction of a submarine launch cruise missile with the appropriate attributes that we can have flexible credible low yield nuclear options in order to reinforce this idea of tailored deter caller clark breaking the fact it's been a long time since the senior leadership of the united states has paid such close attention to nuclear matters that have you m or other is taken a personal part and word games to improve your understanding of the solution make a matrix seize the command and control intricacies  or do you plan to the type of planning that you're referring to that i should back up and say planning for various contingencies performing exercises and thought explorations about various circumstances world's one of the tools we routinely use at the defense department in a whole range of circumstances those are not unique to the nuclear weapons enterprise certainly in the nuclear weapons enterprise the stakes are dramatically higher but yes that is the kind of  discussion the type of planning we do and some the only thing but it's one of the tools that we use and i have personally participated in that type of planning in exercises and that's the way i would note i served in the pentagon  defense department i similarly produce you know participated in planning and exercises at that time so it's not a new innovation of the present administration but do you see  crease depth of interest and the nuclear issue has elevated your participation to any degree or or why i think that the security environment in the world has elevated the level of attention to this area whether it's in the defense department the energy farm state department i won't speak for my colleagues but in the congress as well certainly the diverse organs united states government and i think there's no question people are more concerned about this and how can you not be kim jong un brings it to you front of your radar screen in the morning many times based on what he's saying or doing that yes please do so th e national level i want to talk about the national level interest in the fact that this is a policy that was created by the interagency reviewed and approved by the president the united states reasserting our  commitment to maintaining and securing modernizing and our nuclear stockpile and our infrastructure so that to me is is very good news for the for the country for the people the united states for the people i represent here today given that we've we have people that have devoted their their adult lives to this endeavor they believe in it i really appreciated  deputy secretary of defense calling calling out the men and women that work in this area i'll do the same for ours that are not in uniform but but have strong beliefs that what they do every day is strengthening national security so they have the the national level support for that i think is is very good and will will definitely help us moving forward to with all the work that we have going on and will continue to do  so from a security perspective from the diplomatic perspective is the worsening security situation is something that we certainly take note of at the state department and as i mentioned our allies like partners have certainly are aware of it and also  defense information systems agency this is the computing part of the military and that's all those server farms they're involved with small businesses that then do computing in a prize e mail careers and i  i get these emails sent to my inbox i knew anybody can do it a hosted employment security summit took place at the agency's for me to headquarters that would be where and as a is in for me bringing together more than two hundred and fifty department of defense and point security subject matter experts now that's cold word for people with security clearances who know a lot about their particular special access program and knowledge special access program this is two hundred fifty of these guys is like a mass of get together systems administrators analyst and users to discuss a modernization efforts three day event this thing went on and on and on giving em point practitioners and peers that magic word again subject matter experts when i sued the president and went to the supreme court that's one of the things that the district court said is that he is not us subject matter experts with torture the opportunity to hear from d d chief information officer u s cyber command that's part of an as say and joint force headquarters d o d

electromagnetic frequencies and directed energy weapons testing on people that's a violation of international treaties and explore the way ahead for an enterprise and point security solution they want big highlighted the time of this of the head event in her opening remarks it is a component command of cyber cum comm that means that the  and cyber comm are housed in the same for me buildings and i

levels we recognize the value of a modernized enterprise solutions said great kathleen great were navy were admiral there is an urgency to secure our networks effectively in a way that leverages efficiencies she continued we have to go beyond we have to do it our way we have to get to a common common set of standards so that we can secure the entirety of the deal would be i am well

defense contractor mark heat mark lockheed martin implicated in covert microwave weaponry assault on targeted individuals and these are totally innocent people that they can round up and throw in jail so they zap them to death what's that all about that is so many laws are being broken it's rageous they call them targeted individuals or t i is but they're basically using people as guinea pigs and lab rats and zapping them across the country a lot of these people don't realize they're b zapped about about twenty thirty fifty eighty thousand probably realize they're being zapped but the rest of the people don't understand that their physical skills are being caused by the department of defen using them for experiments that's why you see all these ads on t v for all these medicines that not
