she entered the program at nyu and the important thing to understand is that one or two experiences. this isn't a drug you take every day. you are treating a mental problem wit was an experience, a chemical. >> which is challenging in and of itself. this isn't a chemical fix for anything. so this woman has an experience and at one poihiso a lot of the cancer patients she saw a black mass located under her rib cage and realized that was her fear and she screamed and said get out of my body and it went away. after the trip was over, her fear, she didn't have to fear any more. i wrote in the article using the journalistic way that it was diminished thinking that would be easier to get past the fact checkers so she had obtained a perspective. she said i realized i can't control my cancer but i can control my fear and distinction which is important allowed her to live again. in these two studies if you crunch them, both the hopkins study let me see if i can remember that in 80% of the cases, people have statistically significant reductions in standard measures of depression and anxiety, t

i am now at nyu running an innovation lab. and federal nowt nyu running the innovation lab but what we are grappling with today and thinking about and the problems are big but the solutions are not easy. and for public health and safety for indianapolis. and those that served in a number of different positions throughout the organization. and working with the juvenile justice. and finally lena hackett my first contact in the great city of indianapolis she had community solutions. and then working in indianapolis. not long ago a statement that was made to put people over prisons and futures over jail beds. then to become the mayor in 2016 so explain what is that. >> first thanks for inviting us. and in 2016 like most communities we have an antiquated jail system somewhere between 2,008,000 people somewhere in the early 2000 to say you reach capacity because bad things will happen. because each year each mayor tries to build a new facility. and then to make it the number one mission with a 600 million-dollar jail. we have the op

i can't go enter the hopkins and nyu didn't have me because i didn't fit what they were looking for.and maybe other reasons. i don't know. [ laughing ] guest: and so i went underground. and i end up exploring this underground community of guides who are very serious professional therapists working underground. not that there probably aren't a lot too, but the ones i met were remarkably ethical and trustworthy. well, not all of them. but most of them were. [ laughing ] guest: there was some people that i just thought were a little too wanky for me, but i'm sure they're fine for oem pethe people. so part of my mind is you're going to go to the top of the mountain and what if you have a heart attack. is he going to call 911. he's going to worry about getting arrested. you could die. i was playing out the fantasies. the other side is you have a book to write. [ laughing ] guest: aren't you curious. don't you want to see if you learn something about your consciousness. it went back and forth. and i realize that voice of alarm was my ego trying to prevent me from doing something that was g

the court after justice ginsburg famously was alone on the court from 2005-2009 and she was just at nyu this last year and she described that time between 2005-and justice o'connor retired 22000 and when you ride on the court as a time where it was just her and ate very well fed men. [laughing] >> that's -- >> and then justice kagan joined. now there are three women on the court. interestingly, the dynamic changed a little bit. for a law professor at northwestern along with her students, just released a study a few years ago and they track the number of interruptions in oral arguments at the court, indiebound that women justices are disproportionately interrupted at higher rates than their male colleagues by their male colleagues and by mail advocates. have you noticed that? [laughing] >> i'm sorry. that was truly spontaneous. [laughing] is a woman in the room who has ever failed to notice that? [laughing] [applause] justice ginsburg once noticed, and i hope she has noticed my response to it come at an earlier time where she said she is often spoken at conferences, said something. no on

we already partner with nyu to support their new affordable online masters degree program. they call it their cyber fellows program. we recognize these are initial steps. we will need to continually evaluate our technology and how we're doing and get more precise and build new approaches as, you know, new techniques emerge. and we're counting on new approaches. in fact, we are challenging the industry. it can be a giant company. it can be the academic sector. it can be that brand-new startup that just moved into their garage to build something. we're challenging the industry to build up solutions that can scale to our great city and will help all new yorkers defend themselves online and will fully protect their privacy. new york city believes that a strong, safe, fair and prosperous city depends on securing the digital space where so much personal and economic activity happens. we hope the new york city secure initiative will spark a public discourse on how governments can take action to help improve the cybersecurity for the public. all of us at new york city cyber command

my schools are nyu, columbia, usc, ucla. >> are these some of the better schools? >> yes, they are. >> so you've done your homework. >> yes. a goal without a plan is just a dream. >> okay, i like that. >> this is 13. >> i love what 13 looks like. [ laughter ] >> you told me that you just came back and spoke with somebody graduating from the program who just got their phd. >> yes, sir. >> tell us about that. >> back in 2003 i created the college pathways to clear. we realized that we had a ged program and afterschool program, but we did not have anything that allowed people to access how to get into college and prep for it. so that was really important. a young woman by the name of dr. howard was on our very first college tour in 2005. so, as an oakland high school student, i remembered that we used to race to the post office to beat the mid-light -- midnight deadline to go to college's. she got into uc berkeley, still the number one public institution. at the time, nobody in her family had even graduated high school, so this was a big leap. we had gone to look at c

the drugs she was taking weren't helping, so her parents enrolled her in a study at nyu langone medicalhe started taking epidiolex with an active ingredient derived from marijuana. her awareness and alertness increased, and the seizures decreased. >> i think for us, any teeny bit of relief we might get with the seizures is huge. >> reporter: epidiolex is the first cannabis-based drug to receive approval from the fda. the active ingredient is cannabidiol or cbd, from the marijuana plant. >> it represents a chapter in therapy in the united states for epilepsy. >> reporter: dr. orrin devinsky is a lead physician in the research. >> many of these children and young adults had significant reductions in their most severe and dangerous seizures. >> reporter: side effects may include tiredness, decreased appetite, and diarrhea. the drug does not cause a marijuana high. >> for us, having a day or two days a week where she doesn't have seizures or she just has one when she goes to sleep at night is a relatively good day for us. >> reporter: dtoye. john schiumo, cbs news, new york. >>> president t

really was the reason why i moved to new york city and went to nyu because i saw this white girl with that saul i wanted. yeah. >> trevor: now you are now writing and i think do you feel that gravity of putting people on screan, that identify people out there who maybe have never seen themselves on screen in anyway, shape or form. >> the fact that we have love stories on our show, we are not just merely points of trauma because so often transbodsees are usually dead in an active bodsee. so here we have five women who have different dreams, who have love who want desire who want to be desired, who are funny, who are villains who are all of these different things so in that way when you center these people on the show, you show people that number one it's not scary. that they are not horrible people, that they are not freak shows but instead they are rum human, and tv being such an intimate platform, you know, this people invite you into their home every night. >> right. >> they get to know you and love you and are invested. i hope it doesn't only educate and inspire and entertain but a

you know, i was teaching at nyu-shanghai where the whole mission is to bring u.s.cation to china, and there are a lot of things about the chinese students that they didn't get can and that china didn't get about the school. and i just thought, you know what? i actually understand both sides of this, and there is a book where i can explain it, you know? because there's a lot of deep research, right? >> and avocados -- >> and avocados, well, what i realized is that the piece of information that they were missing was that the self that dominates in the east and the self that.com dominates -- that dominates in the west are very different. we imagine we have a big pit in the center of us, a sacred pit, i will say. this thehing tt we call ourself, we feel this is our identity. you kw, the whole purpose of u.s. education is to understand the nature of this identity, to identify strengths and weaknesses, to develop it, develop this voice, that we're very much committed to making sure that it's fe expression, that it can rule freely. and this is the model that we have. but

i ended up taking a narrative nonfiction course at nyu with an old friend of mine who's a nonfiction writer. through that course i began to be able to think more like a narrative nonfiction writer, rather than a sociologist. i decided i wanted to come either two genres really and try to write a story that was sociologically informed, informed by research, but also that might appeal to a larger audience and i don't have to say that transgender is of great interest these days. people are curious about it. they are sometimes confused about it, don't quite know what it means, so i thought this was potentially a very good topic to write about. i was curious about it myself. >> you are even including a glossary in the back of some terms that over the past few years have become very standard, but too many readers might not be. it seems like as you wrote you are trying to include people may be coming in with no knowledge. is that correct? how did you consider those people and how did you write both for them and people who might have a sibling going through this or going through themselves? >

rob: nyu professor list of all these ice offices names and addresses online.pe somebody doesn't list his name online because he would have a target on his back. it is disgusting what is going on. jillian: democrats demanded donald trump end the 0-tolerance policy so he did, the left saying the executive order they wanted makes things worse, social media sounded off on this. rob: donald trump rallies thousands last night, what are people saying about the pres.'s message. >> reporter: the president spoke a mile away from uncle louis's cafÉ. we are fortunate to have a big crowd here. in the 4:00 am in the central time zone, people are ready to talk. evan is a college sophomore but it is alout the economy. >> a lot of people are not doing well, some are struggling, we need to help them out and put money back in their pockets. >> reporter: for you the tax cuts are huge. >> i think the tax cuts help with growth of the economy especially with industries and all that kind of stuff creating more jobs in america is going to help us. rob: you think the text that are impo

. -- the brennan center for justice at nyu school is a law and policy institute -- when necessary defends a countries system of democracy and justice. there should be little doubt after the 2016 election that one set of defenses that need strengthening is the decades-old ban on foreign spending in american elections. the 21st century rise of the internet, the drastic deregulation of campaign-finance have created huge weaknesses in the legal protections against foreign meddling and spending in american elections. not just by the russians but by any foreign power that will now likely see an opportunity to interfere in american elections. this is a matter, as many have said, of national security. it is also a matter of popular sovereignty. the right of the american people and the american people alone, to decide the future of their government. it is an urgent matter that is critically important to get right soon and we are lucky to have such a distinguished and knowledgeable panel here today to discuss how we can do that. before we begin, on behalf of the brennan center, i would like first t

. >> willa thompson, nyu graduate student. australia has raised red flags about china interfering financially in the election process. i am wondering if you foresee chinese using sharp power to interfere or? anything is possible. we have not seen evidence of that happening here. i think australia, their funding of political campaigns is less restrictive than ours is. that's part of the reason they have suffered from this more than we have. certainly there is enormous amount of interest in congress about chinese influence in the united states and whether that influence is coming to confucius institutes are chinese scientists who may be taking technology back, or even in think tanks. i think this is something that congress is looking at but buti think they need to be looking at it in a very finely grained way because we don't want to unleash some kind of very ugly and negative campaign against all chinese. i think xi jinping has to some extent done chinese people globally at the service by calling on them every year, chinese eve

so -- >> peter schey, can i ask you your reaction to one nyu law professor tonight has called this an unqualified retreat for the president. do you see it that way? >> i think it's a qualified retreat. i got it all from the department of justice today telling me pursuant to the instructions of the president they intend to be in court, possibly as soon as tomorrow, in our case in order to request that the judge modify the agreement. and according to the conversation with the department of justice they want to not only request, in essence, that parents can be detained with their children, which is kind of ridiculous because nothing in the settlement precludes that in the first place. but they also told me something that's not in the executive order. that they're also under instructions to try to modify the settlement which currently says that any facility where minors are detained must be a licensed facility. and they want that part of the settlement stricken or modified so they can start detaining parents with children in military-type facilities or other types of facilities that are n

work thatere is still can be done in the states. , iy schools, for example know nyu and the others have open the schools to the graduates of puerto rico, whose facilities were closed down during the storm. there are different ways you can participate. there are soet and many different projects going on. there are a lot of problems, like what happened after september 11 in new york. there are a lot of resources available to people if they know how to access it. there is a great deal of difficulty in dealing with red is relatedially as to our governments here on the mainland. some resources available to islanders that they are not able to get to. >> we are almost at the conclusion at our -- conclusion of our time. we have been talking about inclusive court houses, courtship, and recently there has been a proposal from some of your colleagues to modify the hiring process so it is not quite as accelerated as it has been. applicants tore have two years upgrade -- and then a cooling off period where no offers are expended. and then opportunity after that open season. have you thought about th

a professor at nyu put personal information about i.c.e. employees on the internet.is readers got the message. in case that message was too subtle, here is actor peter fonda on twitter encouraging his fellow progressives, "get the addresses of the i.c.e. agents and surround their homes in protest. we should find out what homes -- schools their children go to and surround the schools in protest. we don't have to take the agents' kids, we only need to surround their schools and scare the bleep out of them, we need to make their children worry now." and then fonda wrote this. about the current d.h.s. secretary. the gash should be pilloried in lafayette square >> tucker: just another day on progressive twitter. where is all of this going? you know the answer to that. you can feel where it's going. the question is, how did we get there? that's not complicated either. over the past couple of days, trump administration officials have been compared to the nazis dozens of time. on cnn and msnbc. what is the effect of is that? think about that for a second. if you really belie

about 100 of the guys and she meets this young pilot who's from jersey had just graduated recently from nyu. he comes from a privileged background that decides he's going to become a naval aviator and as they go in the secret base in there's a picture in the book of them riding their bicycles and then the war breaks out they are separated. she is on the front lines and he has back in maine end date trade letters back and forth. they would write them every day and when the plane was going back and forth they put on seven or eight letters at a time. that was just a remarkable story for me. in some ways i said the letters you almost know more about their time apart in their time together but they went and decided they wanted to get married there. they got married in maine and the thing about the flying tigers as they were officially disbanded in july of 1892. although pilots have the decision that do you want to stay or do you want to go home. they decide that they are going to leave the unit and he might fly for an airline flying supplies over the himalayas and it was a transition in the army

because ben rhodes, the architect of obama foreign policy after he got a masters in creative writing from nyucally put this in a book, the book got published, and this is how it came to light. over time, the obama legacy being undone completely by president trump, it's going to come out that i was in the end of the bush administration, and we were under such clear orders to make things good for the next team because it was right for the country and obama did the opposite, and it's going to come to light because of partnership and their ideologies. they have done as much as possible to undermine the president. if it hurts america, our economy, our national security, they don't care. liz: well, here's trump budget director mick mulvaney talking to fox about the president's policies this morning. i like your reaction. let's take a listen. >> cannot just ask other countries to treat us better. that's not the way the world works. but everything a president has done is described to help american workers and the american family. and the trade policies is part of that. will it be as quick to show res

. >> my name is meredith mackenzie and i am here on behalf of the nyu center for uman rights. you mentioned we should be concerned about russia feared -- russia. the last title talked about that panel talked about american misinformation, how much comes from russia and what is the responsibility of businesses to look at their model and what they are profiting off of misinformation? you said maybe the solution is in politics but maybe is there a solution for tech companies and media? amber: you got this. pablo: it is tough. why do we see fake news? financial incentive. kids in macedonia creating it because they make money. then also propaganda in many ways it's difficult to identify and politically motivated. so i think it's very challenging to come up where ways to fight it. i think the broad or point is the discussion so far fake news mostly in the u.s. but in other countries -- we're worried about democracy but in other countries are worried about genocide. falsehoods are being shared and leads to political violence. that is something which we ought to pay attention to. >> i

nyu there was recently two suicides very close together. we really see it. that's why we have to talk about it and start destigmatizing it. depression are real. there are always warning signs. >> like what? >> any change in behavior. for instance, i'm not sure if anthony's social media history -- >> four days ago were the last tweets. >> is that unusual? >> hard to know. >> he was out shooting. >> he could have needed to go to work instead of being on social media. >> if you have a friend or family member that's on twitter five times a day, and you're a little bit worried about them and all of a sudden they go to radio silence. that would be a risk factor. i'm not suggesting everyone who takes a healthy break frsocial media is at risk for suicide. >> substance abuse. anthony talked willingly and openly about his battle with heroin in the 1980s. it was a big part of his life. >> yes, and he was candid about that. i think on the program, obviously, we see him drinking, celebrating, having a good time. there were certainly times in the past where he was drinkin

we will also strengthen partnerships with academia to haesilieand we are partnering with nyu for theirer-security program. we recognize that these are our initial steps. we will need to continually evaluate the technolo d how e doing. we need to get more precise and build new approaches as new techniques emerge. we are counting on new approaches. we are challenging the industry , it could be a company, academics, a startup that just came into a garage to build something, right? we are challenging them to build solutions that can scale to our city and help all new yorkers defend themselves online and protect privacy. new york city believes that a strong, safe and prosperous city depends on securing the digital space. we hope that new york city secure will open discourse on how government can take action to improve cyber-security for the public. we are deeply honored to build this infrastructure and assets and help new yorkers begin to protect themselves on line. in closing, make no mistake, in new york city we are having a conversation about the role of government and cyber-security on

the judge also went to nyu law school. he practiced law and was a judge for a combined 26 years. and was the founding partner of butler and then recently retired from the bench. we are very happy to head him here as well. the initial reaction to a couple hundred page book. of how corporations use the courts of law. and somewhere between that. from the great historical perspective as well. regardless of how you feel about the corporation. i'm very excited for professor winkler to have this book. and then i'll be remiss to say if i did not mention acs and make a quick plug so i'm here on behalf of the lawyers chapter. we are very active. we are more than that. we try to bring together the great legal minds across the country. to try to articulate a professional vision. if we are interested. he'll fee to join and reach out to me. i will step down. i will let them do that. thank you charlie for the lovely introduction. thank you judge for being here in doing this. thank you obviously to the books. and for having me. it's a real pleasure to be here. obviously thanks to all of you for

heidi przybyla, daniel goldman, former assistant attorney and professional of constitutional law at nyu. rick, i want to start with you. i have never heard a president say he is king before, but the fact he is kill any investigation, pardon himself. how can he obstruct himself because he is basically legally and constituti god. it's an amazing assertion. what do you make? have you ever heard anybody claim this before? >> the combination of these positions is an incredible sweeping assertion of presidential power, and it's certainly inconsistent with the president's obligation under the u constitution to make sure that the laws be followed faithfully. if he terminated investigations of anybody who had given him campaign contribution, or he ordered the government to prosecute only people who had given to his opponent, the ident can obstruct justice. congress can make it a crime if he acts with a corrupt purpose. >> but, rick, where are they getting this from? where are these people, john dowd and a whole bunch of these lawyers that trump has found, this collection of fixer, or whatever th
