barbara bush is down in the lower left hand corner, and she and her daughter in law, laura bush, understood the link between education, poverty and the ability to move upward mobility in this country. and so they both were firmly committed to civil rights, to equal rights, especially when it came to education. and barbara bush's literacy programs were an excellent example, especially for adult literacy, to help people move on and try to improve their lives. in 2021, the barbara bush foundation for family literacy began a new program that was for anti-bias and anti-racist educational resources. so even after her death, her foundation, her legacy lives on and continues that work. laura bush, after she graduated from college, chose to work in depressed areas of both houston and dallas and she wanted to do something to improve the lives of some of the children in these areas. and she believed education was a way of doing it. she also, through literacy programs, was trying to do what she could to equalize some of the educational opportunities in this country. she did a special program on the har

laura bush deputy chief financial officer in addition to the technical work and planning work that the engineers will do on this project, the finance team and the external affairs team are also going to be working really hard on trying to figure out how we best finance this project. right now in the capital plan, we're being as transparent as possible, but all of the costs right now fall on spec ratepayers. we are working now and we have some time before the project really starts to ramp up to try and offset that cost. somehow um, some options. we have right now is this is not just a san francisco issue. this is a regional issue. this is facing other utilities in the region. um, so we are exploring ways in which we can work together with regional partners and potentially get non ratepayer funds such as federal grants, things like that, to try and offset the burden on the ratepayers here. so that's something we will we'll be doing alongside the technical planning work that's being done in infrastructure and wastewater. great. excellent thank you. thank you for that. um, and then with th

laura bush, deputy cfo. um, so as you remember from nancy holmes presentation last monday, it's is increasing their budget for various different projects, which jennifer can explain. we put those into the budget in a number of different ways. we put them directly into its operating budget. we put some projects into the capital budget and we ran some projects through program attic and the programmatic projects get allocated to the enterprises. so just depending on the type of projects and where it was most suitable to put in the budget, um, that's where it's appearing and it's coming up here because the programmatic projects sit within the enterprises. so we allocated a portion of the it's programmatic projects to each enterprise. so that's why you're seeing the increase here. and don't get me wrong, i'm actually excited to see this. and i'm assuming, uh, maybe this wasn't a line before or this is a brand new line. this is new. and i think this maybe goes back to what, um, uh, commissioner stacy mentioned too

. >> lowest approval rating since president bush's second term. >> laura: yeah, why are they surprisediscontent when they see it. poverty and the fentanyl, some are seeing the writing on the wall and want the courts to rush in and tie him up in court or send him to jail. >> i'm at the freak-out stage. american citizens deserve to know whether a candidate for office is a felon and insurrectionist. >> laura: joining me is ben dominic, fox news contributor. they have to change, they are worry. >> the desperation, laura, it is all they have to hang their hat on. a big part of this, they recognize they have not been able to admit to themselves that he's a failure, a terrible president. he's bad at everything. they have been trying to sweet talk themselves to navigate this election cycle. that is not there anymore for them. you see that in desperation about this border bill. that is abhorrent and they are grasping on to a way to blame it on republicans, otherwise he will be doomed to have this around his neck going into november and he will lose because of it. >> laura: biden today addressed

laura bush had a role of supporting her husband particularly in wartime., reluctant, but stepped up, was visible and had a role as a voice, as the first black first lady, but melania trump was not invisible, but not very visible. >> absent at times. >> yeah. >> not very there. >> it's interesting, i talked to one of her former aids, stephanie grisham for the role, she was former white house secretary and top aid to melania who said said, she would tell us all the time, this is our office, we do our own thing, and she said, we might have pushed it a little too far, but we did establish that this role is completely voluntary, which is true. you know, you're not paid. there are no actual rules. you can do as little or as much to a point, i suppose, as you want. i think, you know, melania trump did enjoy being the first lady and liked putting the first lady logo on things and traveling in her capacity as first lady. she liked a lot less the scrutiny that came with it. she was a headline obsessive, she still is. she trolls -- or trawls the internet for coverage

bush's second term. >> laura: yeah. why are they surprised?o they not recognize discontent when they see it? migrants getting benefits as veterans, homeless people in the united states struggle? the poverty, the fentanyl? but, some are seeing the writing on the wall and, thus, they want the courts to rush in for the big rescue. tie trump up in court or even send him to jail. >> i am officially now at the freak out stage. i can't imagine a more compelling need for speed than the idea that american citizens deserve to know before the election whether a candidate for office is a felon and an insurrectionist. >> laura: joining me now is ben domenech editor-at-large at the spectator fox news contributor. ben, they have to change the depends at this point not just for joe but for themselves. they are very worried and they want lawfare to save them, the desperation. the desperation, laura. they need it so much. it's all that they have to hang their hat on. a big part of this is that they recognize on some deep level that they haven't been able to adm

but they wanted unanimity, laura.hey wanted to get karen henderson, that bush-appointed judge, who is known to be prickly. she asked harder questions at the oral argument to join with judge pan and judge childs. they got that. and the power of the opinion, the depth of the opinion, it's a landmark in what has been a long history of important opinions from the d.c. circuit. >> do we know they were trying to persuade? is that the reason or the thought? >> that's the assumption. given the speed they scheduled oral argument and the clarity of the views of two of the judges, you have to ask yourself, why did it take four full weeks. pan and childs were in a hurry. must be that they were bringing henderson along and that was the right decision. >> you look at this. it was unanimous. and the court shot down the idea of absolute immunity. the court shot down double- double-jeopardy. they shot down the notions and this is an important part, of whether he was acting in his official capacity, so to speak. they are not convinced

laura, i was at the white house, white house physician for 14 years. president bush, president obama and president trump for three years. i was there 14 years, for three administration and eight years in the obama administration. most of these people in the west wing with joe biden, i took care of them. for them to make that claim is ridiculous. >> laura: we get it, they are smearing you. yeah. >> laura: they are smearing you. i want to point out something chris matthews on msnbc said this morning. he had advice for biden staffers. i will ask you if that would work. >> biden will get out and mix it up and hang out with regular people. he may make problems along the way and make more gaffes, of course he will. if i were in the back room with him, i would make him feel better about himself, be nice and encouraging, that is what staffers should do, encourage the guy. >> laura: if someone is declining because of various aging issues, everyone wants to be encouraged, does that get at the problem we know he's not making the big decisions here? >> yeah, it be
