and that's that's lyndon johnson. our sense that the government has constructive role to play in the life of the nation. yes, of course a lot of that is fdr johnson trying to out fdr fdr but it's lbj himself and that battle that we talk about with the conservative movement that you've described that is contesting, you know, those those very points. and it is that push and pull and the wrestling that's that's taking place around that. and, you know, nikki, i'm wondering if you can pick up on some of that that mark was just talking about. you know, the low stock of johnson when he dies 50 years ago in 1973 and this new moment that seems to be happening for for lyndon johnson right now and why you you think that's occurring, particularly early? because there was such an effort to use him as the the target the poster child for all that wrong with government for for many of the reasons that you described i think conservatives have a big role to play in why lyndon johnson is so popular these days or why gained in reputation

lyndon johnson, that was somewhere around 1967, when he was president.aw the passage of the space treaty. it was ratified by the senate. it is a declaration of the peaceful use of space. the artemis accords, named after artemis, the twin sister of apollo. which is the name of the program that is taking us back to the moon and on to mars. the artemis accords are a declaration of common sense principles of the peaceful uses of space. and thus far, we have about 33 countries that have signed it, and there will be a lot more. >> we are out of time, and i want to end by giving you a book that everyone here knows i'm in orange and white bleeder. one of our past chancellors of the university of texas system, he was a deputy administrator of nasa -- of nasa. >> one smart guy. >> he was awesome, he was so interesting, and he talked about , in this book that was written, the space station, a personal journey, and he talks about a lot of the inside things that went on that is the history of our nasa efforts in his role in it, he became secretary of the air force af

that's what lyndon johnson signed new hampshire, jean mccarthy got 42% of the vote. and then in johnson dropped out of the presidential race, not because he thought gene mccarthy could beat him to the nomination. he was sure he would get the nomination of the convention in chicago, because that's where it was going to be decided. it wasn't gonna be decided in the primaries. but the signaling and johnson got from the new hampshire vote was i can't win in november. this is too much weakness within my own party for me to win in november. and that's why he dropped out. when you look at this vote on uncommitted, which is one that i fully respect, strategically, and the people who want to cast, to deliver this expression of, this is based on a policy that we care about, we think the president is failing us on this one policy and only on this one policy, and no other policy. this is not a vote for a person. they could have put up a candidate. they could've gone to dean phillips. dean phillips says he wants to see a cease-fire in december. they refused. refused to vote for d

we when i guarantee it is not lyndon johnson because that is lyndon baines johnson but i'm going withal please. harry s truman. he's got it right again. do you look it up? >> i don't look it up. it's not allowed. i don't. ashley is the one that gets it right. stuart: the us didn't stand for any name but was a compromise between the names of his grandfather, truman and solomon. out of time, coast-to-coast starts now

that's what lyndon johnson signed new hampshire, jean mccarthy got 42% of the vote. and then in johnson dropped out of the presidential race, not because he thought gene mccarthy could beat him to the nomination. he was sure he would get the nomination of the convention in chicago, becausethat'sbe decdec the primaries. got from the new hampshire vote was i can't win in november. this is too much weakness within my own party for me to win in november. and that's why he dropped out. whenvois one that i fully respect, strategically, and the people who want to cast, to deliver this expression of, this is based on a policy that we care about, we think the president is failing us on this one policy and only on this one policy, and no other policy. this is not a vote for a person. they could have put up a candidate. they could've gone to dean phillips. dean phillips says he wants to see a cease-fire in december. they refused. refused to vote for dean phillips. and they cast a vote that says to the president, we are not with you tonight. that's all that vote says. we are unc

when lyndon johnson saw those results, that was it. it was all over. >> it was, lawrence o'donnell, reminding us to learn from history. president johnson saw that similar number, a challenger cracking 40% in his own party against a white house veteran and he was out. rfk was in the wings. a lot of details we could get into. we dug into this to present context tonight. how experts knew that an opponent doing that well inside lbj's own party when he had the white house behind him, that could be curtains from lbj. >> in the democratic party, the important point is that there is a contest at all. usually when an incumbent president is running for re-election, nobody in his own party comes in toal challenge him. senator mccarthy has come to challenge him this time. if mccarthy gets 30% of the vote or more against an incumbent president he can legitimately claim a legitimate victory. >> that would mean there's something going on, some problems, some alerts, some serious opposition. mccarthy won 42% in a result seen as stunning at the time. n

but then i was lyndon johnson. you said he was lonely because he. he'd been kicked out. really? i mean, he had he had withdrawn, but it was really because he had to withdraw. yeah. and it was so sad because he knew that he had extraordinary he had done extraordinary things. i mean medicare, medicaid, aid to education immigration reform, voting rights, pbs desegregating the south. i aid to the cities. extraordinary but the vietnam war had cut it all into and he just needed to feel like he'd be remembered somehow. i think it's that of all of us to somehow be remembered. and and he chose me somehow because i was there and maybe because i was young. and maybe because i was going to be an historian or. he thought i might be to tell the stories, too. and so they they became the foundation of the first book. and luckily the book did well. so that me to become a writer because i would, i would have been a teacher and maybe a professor, even, but not a writer by profession. it was listening to you tell these these origin stories. i'm well, one person here, robbie, is, is known for his fi

during the administration of lyndon johnson. this is lyndon johnson signing the voting rights act. this is lyndon johnson initiating programs but this is lyndon johnson that did more than any other president has ever done since abraham lincoln. there is no other president had a progressive agenda quite like that. in the background of that or the foreground of that, that did not stop dr. king for pushing from peace and to make that speech from riverside in which he stated verbatim that he would not speak against the city across america in terms of their violence. he has clearly spoken to the greatest purveyor in the world, our own government. that is example we have to move . we are not going to demobilized. we will not stand down no matter who is in public office. we have to maintain an activist friend and organizing front to maintain accountability across the board. >> kate, would you like to comment? we will open it up to the floor. please, identify yourself, name, affiliation and if you had a particular role in the antiwar, anti-iraq war movement, you may state that. george. >>

it was difficult for lyndon johnson to go into the south after the passage of the civil rights bill. but lady bird, who had southern roots and who had family from alabama and used to spend much of her childhood there, summers said she would take it on, and she gave some pretty dramatic speeches that made it very clear what her position was. she said in one speech, i know that many of you do not agree with the civil rights bill or the president's support of it. it would be a bottomless tragedy for our country to be racial divided. this is not a challenge only in the south. it is a national challenge. this was such a dangerous trip that they were bomb threats. they had to run an empty engine ahead of her train just because of bomb threats on the tracks. she was also heckled, but she showed great poise and grace and made it clear that they had their right to speak. but she also did. lady bird. beautiful nation program was a lot more than billboards and cleaning up highways. she also worked as head on wilson and some of the neighborhoods in washington where minorities were living and did

johnson from 1957 were revived, he then frightened his fellow citizens that soon the soviets would beginnuclear bombs at america from space, like children throw from stockade. because they made the decision to do something in space. nuclear threat it’s not scary from the outside, but ohio’s forests have been bombed for a long time. they don't worry about providing answers to a city they just nuked. just 2 days before the disaster, the same derailed train broke down. did this company keep their train from sending out barrels of chemicals, knowing that the train would also run on wobbly brakes. no. having survived the environmental apocalypse, 400 residents of east palestine soon found themselves hostage to the foreign policy ambitions of the american leadership. last february for years, biden was engaged in ukraine; those begging for help were not interesting to him. he remembered them only now. the distance from palestine to washington is 450 km. biden traveled 378 days. too little, too late, written on the route of his motorcade, everyone is talking about it, he arrived late, and would

senate representing minnesota and four years as lyndon johnson's vice president. he is largely remembered mifor losing to richard nixon in the 1968 presidential campaign. and again to george mcgovern for the democratic presidential nomination in 1972. humphrey was disparaged from having dutifully supported johnson's conduct of the vietnam war. and though once the nation's preeminent liberal politician, humphrey came to be regarded but sam tells another story arguing that humphrey actually left quite a consequence a legacy earlier in his political career as something of a beacon for genuine democracy. as mayor of minneapolis, humphrey pushed through reforms to end anti- black and other mechanisms of discrimination and he made some progress in dismantling present just in the city's police department. and then at the 1948 democratic national convention, 75 years ago, this month, humphrey bolted into national prominences when he delivered a powerful speech advocating a robust civil rights plan for the democratic party's platform. this was a time of they dominated the

this is lyndon johnson. they initiated the poverty programs. this is lyndon johnson. it did more on a domestic front than other president since fdr and abraham lincoln. there's no other president they had they had a progressive agenda quite like that in the background of that or the foreground of that that did not stop dr. king from for peace and from us making that speech from riverside church. a time to break silence in which he he stated verbatim that he would not speak against the urban rebels in the cities across america in terms of their monitoring cocktails near violence until he has clearly spoken to the greatest purveyor of ours in the world, his own. that is that's the example that i believe we have, that we have to move for that. we're not going to demobilize. we're not going to stand down no matter who's in public office, that we have to maintain an activist front, an organizing front to maintain accountability all across the board. kate, would you like to comment now? okay. we'll open it up to the floor, identify yourself. name, affiliation, academic affi

a stepping aside, which happened in march for lyndon johnson, ben. >> this is the great purge. the media is trying to do it for the democratic party and force him out, this is not by accident that the media has turned on him since he did that horrific press conference in prime time a couple weeks ago. they saw it. the democratic party saw it and realize we can't keep hiding joe biden. we're terrified of what he's going to say next. that's number 1. number 2, this is not so much about age. it isn't. it's about cognitive decline. you look at donald trump's schedule. you look at his day. you compare it. they said by his own words, he's a noon to 4:00 president. he's a noon to 4:00 president. we put a step in there and we shut him down. so what democrats are doing right now, they're saying how in the hell do we get rid of joe biden? they're using the media to do it for them. they're hoping to get it done quickly. >> martha: let's hope that they can release these transcripts with robert hur and clean some of that up. >> i need to respond. >> martha: you ate up a lot at the top. i li

we when i guarantee it is not lyndon johnson because that is lyndon baines johnson but i'm going with ulysses s grant. reveal please. harry s truman. he's got it right again. do you look it up? >> i don't look it up. it's not allowed. i don't. ashley is the one that gets it right. stuart: the us didn't stand for any name but was a compromise between the names of his grandfather, truman and solomon. out of time, coast-to-coast starts now. neil: we are focused on nvidia, the nasdaq. in the case of nvidia about hundred points, good for a 13% gain, lifting anything check with including all the magnificent seven, not all of them doing what they are doing but many putting a confirmation that ai is not just a passing fad. they are there making a ton of money on it and the hope seems to be they will continue doing so. it in the eye of the beholder whether this is actually the case anyway. susan is falling all of this including spillover for other tech names with the exception it seems of tesla. what have you got for us? susan: could be the biggest day in history for stock market creation. nvi

lyndon johnson was burned by the war in vietnam and decided to pull out because of that.the bigger enemy that is faced by joe biden is age itself. he is old. he's not up to this. he can't string together two sentences. he's seen as a weak leader. americans will vote for a strong leader even if they disagree with him and have questions about his personality because that they know how important the job is. you have one guy that is strong, another guy that is soon as weak. at the end of the day, it's problematic for the democrats if they hope to hold on to the white house. >> neil: well, that other guy, donald trump, you carry a lot of baggage as well. he might be seen strong on certain issues but many say he's nuts. how do you balance that? >> that's what i put in my column today. this is going to be one for the books. you cannot sit here and say i know how this will all come out. you can't say that. there's so many things that could happen. what about debates? are there going to be debates? what happens in those debates? >> neil: what if there's no debates? >> and who gets

at this point the chance of him to have the lyndon johnson in announcing in march of 68 which is pretty unlikely. we have our matchup. we don't know what no labels is going to do but we can talk about that later. to me just looking at the general election if you have an incumbent president running for re-election the election is generally a referendum on the incumbent. what's unique about this election is it's the first is was alluded to this is the first election since 1892 that you have back-to-back presence facing off. we founder member grover cleveland and benjamin harrison where cleveland -- harrison was the president cleveland beat him in four years later they flipped it around but when you have back-to-back presence with the unique opportunity to do a comparison shopping like put them next to each other and whether it's the right way of looking at it or not for a lot of these swing voters the that 43% we are talking about the call themselves independents-3/4 of them aren't. it's only eight or 10 that are pearly -- truly independent. for them they are basically asking themselves t

then '64, the tankin crisis, president lyndon johnson wants to introduce the united states is more activen fleet ships in ta'. to do something against saddam hussein , something, i probably said wrong, wants to do something very bad against saddam hussein, remove him from power, and , if possible, remove him from life altogether, and secretary of state colin powell goes at the un general assembly session and waving there a test tube in which there was, believe it or not, a threat to the united states of america that must be contained by any means, because russia. for everything, it represents a kind of evil empire, as it was customary to talk about the soviet union, only in some square, cube or to the tenth power, so money is needed, therefore ukraine is needed, so everything else is needed that would allow russia not to allow her sinister plans to be realized, which are aimed at the united states, but which ultimately, as american politicians are trying to present it. i can imagine that in in the coming weeks or months this will not be the last story of this level, so you recalled the hi

at this point i think the chance of him deciding to pull lyndon johnson and announcing in march that he is not burning is pretty unlikely. to me, just looking at the general election, when you have an incumbent president running for reelection, there is the incumbent on the sending president. what is unique about this election is this is the first election since 1892 you have had back to back presidents facing off. cleveland beat him and then four years later they flipped it around. put them next to each other and whether it is the right way of looking at it or not, for a lot of the swing voters, the 43% you're talking about -- it is only about eight or 10 for the truly independent. they were asking themselves questions -- was a better off before january of 2021 or have i been better off since? when you ask if the policies of trump helped you or hurt you, who do you trust more? i am not passing judgment on their opinion but trump sort of one by double digits on almost all of them. i think the president does not benefit on that side by side comparison. i think that is the frame they w
