even with folks within the commonwealth again this is a tragedy. i don't want to lose sight of that but we do have a responsibility to look at the facts as they are and we can't be in the business. i don't think we want a justice system that is in the business of fashioning facts or laws to a particular narrative. we have to be in the business of presenting the information to the grand jury and ultimately allowing them to make a decision about what to do subsequently. >> last question. >> yes, ma'am. far in the back. we will take these last two here. >> i apologize. >> thank you very much sir. i want to ask if you personally believe someone should have been charged with homicide or one of the charges in this case and if you could please walk us through what happened after the officers knocked on the door. did they hear any answer? how long did they wait before everything erupted? so, both of those questions. thank you very much. >> as to your first question, again, this is about what the grand jury decided. one of the misconceptions out there is th

for the community of louisville and for the commonwealth. we needed to have a thorough investigation. we also got the fbi involved in terms of the ballistics report. we needed additional -- their ability to scruttenize and make an independent assessment. so, the length of the investigation was a reflection i hope people understand of how important it was that we got this right. we didn't want to rush it and we did not. and i am grateful to the team that is behind me for the work they did. look, over 200 years of combined experience. these are prosecutors and investigators who don't care about political distinctions, don't care about influence in any particular regard. what they care about is the truth. and we presented that to the grand jury. >> sir. >> i'm sorry. i won't get into what our private conversation was. yes, ma'am. >> what do you stie people who say this is just another example of the black community not getting full justice and what specifically do you plan to do to calm a community that's long been hurting. and do you understan

[applause] ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> welcome to the commonwealth club.ith the staff at the commonwealth club, putting together all these online programs. we have done really dozens of them since the covid crisis began and it's my great pleasure to introduce susan eisenhower, the granddaughter of president eisenhower and written a great back, "how ike lead" it's like a u2 supply plane overview of the principles that led his presidency and a young girl's point of view on the man himself and it's quite a combination and a nice combination because it is the combination you lived your life at because you're a political analyst. you have lived your life this way and you knew him personally for many years. i thought that was interesting help didn't pass away until you were already in college or around that age, right? >> yes. >> so, welcome, everybody, and we'll get started to talk about president eisenhower for those who aren't familiar with the dates he was president from 1953 until 1961, jfk was the president right afterwards and he was the supreme allied co

you did it successfully. >> thank you for the opportunity back at the commonwealth club. wonderful opportunity of presenting two of my other books at the club in years past so it is great to be back and talk about this and the question is a very interesting one. as part of the disclaimer for our discussion this evening i should say as a kid i was raised to compartmentalize what i knew about his politics, the period in which he governed, the issues that he dealt with, and on the other side my relationship with him as a grandparent. this is a marriage of those two things and it was quite an experience to put it together in one place because i was continually struck by how we were doing certain things as a family dealing with these crises so that was interesting was the impetus for why to do it now revolves around three events. one is the 70 fifth anniversary of the end of world war ii, certainly v-j day is about to occur but we had the 70 fifth anniversary of the end of the war in europe back in may of this year the eisenhower memorial in washington dc will be dedicated on

the word commonwealth signifies a group united by common interest. equally a significant is the fact that in the political realm, a commonwealth avenue mister webster defined has come to me generally association based upon free choice. tonight i shall try to apply to some aspects of the world of international affairs the things principle of this organization . that this state suffered because of a failure of some elements to cooperate as effectively for good asothers did for evil . no group, no matter how well-intentioned can cooperate fully unless there is for a firm basis of common understanding . with the founders of your club recognize. by noting that one of the great difficulties was that different groups in california did not know each other. they were separated by wide areas and they also distrusted each other. just as a california of 1903, theodore club was founded was a far cry from the commonwealth of california today . so the world as we turned into the 20th century is carefully recognizable as the one we know in 1960. >> and the same issu

even with folks within the commonwealth, again, this is a tragedy. i don't want to lose sight of that, but we do have a responsibility to look at the facts as they are. and we can't be in the business -- i don't think we want a justice system that is in the business of fashioning facts or laws to a particular narrative. we have to be in the business of presenting the information to the grand jury and ultimately allowing them to make a decision about what to do subsequently. >> last question. >> yes, ma'am. far in the back. i apologize. actually, we'll take these last two here. either one can start. >> thank you very much, sir. i wanted to ask if you, you know, if you believe personally that someone should have been charged with homicide or one of the similar charges in this case. and if you could please walk us through what happened after the door -- the officers knocked on the door, did they hear an answer? how long did they wait before everything erupted? both of those questions, please, and thank you very much. >> as to your first question, again,

he spoke of the commonwealth club here 60 years ago. as you know, and have a little clip, maybe about three minutes long where everybody can hear his voice. i know a lot of people are not aware of it, it's not as commonly heard as president kennedy scores, for example, with the clips. but the way he says what he says is almost as important as what he says. i think it's very relevant for today just as you were saying. so soon as that clip gets started we will listen to it. but i find it fascinating as we were saying earlier, this generation of men. my father was in the war. he went to north african went up to italy and sicily. righty? go ahead and run it. >> i'm glad to be here this evening to sustain your perfect score as having as a speaker every president of the united states. since this club was founded at the beginning of the century. [applause] >> sorry we don't have live audiences right now. >> i give you no reason to abandon the practice. [laughing] moved by by the wisdom developd out of the experience, the organizer of this club

but i am grateful for the debates, his commitment to the commonwealth, and the energy and enthusiasme brought to this race. obviously, these results were not the ones we were hoping for. to everyone who fought with us, for everyone who stood with us, for everyone who believed in us and gave us their sweat, tears, hearts and souls to this fight, i am so proud of what we accomplished. what we built together. we built a campaign for the people that our politics often leaves behind. we built a campaign for lawrence and for chelsea. xbury, new bedford, for brockton, for springfield, lowell and worcester. we built a campaign for working folks of every color and creed who carry the economic injustice of this country on their backs. who don't lie awake at night worried about political labels, but about the child care bill due friday. the paycheck that is still a week away. the impossible balancing act of keeping the people you love healthy and safe and sheltered and fed in america today. we built a campaign for those who do not have the luxury of accepting the status quo, or the privilege of

i choose a path that moves the commonwealth forward and toward healing. you have that choice as well. let's make it together. thank you and god bless. i will now take some questions. in regards to the [ inaudible ]. >> i won't get into the specific of the makeup of the grand jury. >> you mentioned that breonna taylor was hit by six bullets and you identified the one that killed her. who shot the other five bullets and [ inaudible ] miss taylor. >> based on the evidence, there is nothing conclusive to say that detective hankison's any of his bullets hit miss taylor. >> i'm curious, to the family of those, based on what you're saying today, the grand jury basically found none of the officers involved are directly responsible for breonna taylor's death? >> as i said from the beginning and i appreciate that question, this is a tragedy. sometimes the criminal law is not adequate to respond to a tragedy. i fully acknowledge that and i know many that are watching today and those that are listening recognize that as well. but the response is that the grand jury w

this commonwealth, it's a great commonwealth. it's a great place. the boilermakers local union -- local 154, they started in pittsburgh 125 years ago. none of you are around. now represents members in pennsylvania, ohio, and west virginia. i want to thank john hughes and the boilermakers, here today. it's a great honor to have you. who is john? where the is john? john, we appreciate it. we appreciate it. you know what, john is the head, you've got the worst location. i said, where is john? put up your hand to john. a that guy. >> you got my vote, john. boilermakers, thank you. what a job you do. near the heart of this country. thank you very much, that's a great endorsement. that's a great endorsement. joe biden spent the last 47 years shipping pennsylvania jobs to china in foreign nations. i've spent the last four years bringing them back home, and we are bringing them back home. bringing a lot of things back home. [cheers and applause] i ended the last administration's eighth year, a war on pennsylvania oil and coal and fracking -- if you look at

don't believe me, ask the sheraton ask law enforcement officers across the commonwealth. moderator: thank you senator. dr. gade one minute. gade: let's talk about a record mart previewed the of the police by $50 million in new 2004 budget in crime rates went up after that. you've done nothing am police body cameras and nothing to push federal resources to state and local governments so they have the money to do that. as a matter of fact the bill you are advocating for along with the left-wing colleagues in the senate prohibit nonlethal riot -- methods like choke holds and that finds -- some spine for someone who's never been in a physical fight but let me tell you what happens on the ground when police officers are struggling with the suspect. if they can't use the chokehold sometimes guess what they are going to reach for? they will reach for a lethal means. they will reach for their pistol and i will be the next killing that happens. if we take away tools from police it's no wonder violence goes up and that's why we need to have fundamental police reform. i talked about

commonwealth virginia was certainly growing things like tobacco and cultivating cotton. you can see how intense are how populist the slave people and in slave people were here in virginia at the time. let's go down to georgia. if you notice they were growing rice and different things down here. once again we have a concentration of enslaved individuals. the mississippi river valley same thing. the growing cotton and other cultivating cash crops that allow whites to be able to capitalize on that. once again, look again at the concentration of enslaved people in the mississippi river valley. in may of 1861, there was a perfect storm. several things came together to create what we call today the contraband decision. the first thing occurred is that abraham lincoln promoted and assigned major general william button or to take command of fort murrow. almost on the heels of that, the commonwealth of virginia that have been setting on the fence and under the production on whether to be an stand the production of the united states to join the confederacy made a decision. they wo

the second was puerto rico's evolution from a territory to commonwealth which was made possible by a line of ricans.inded puerto these strands were widely divergent at the beginning but by the end, they come together. resources are pooled, agendas that had been local are nationalized, there is a large wrasse root movement, -- large grass roots movement, groups raza, which is a more radical movement come together. this time in congress when his panic americans serve a, institutional apprenticeship, the length of service increases for them. they receive more prominent committee assignments. just a handful of the people here who stick out in this time serving resident commissioner from puerto rico and the principal architect of the rico's move to commonwealth status in the early 1950's. he was widely respected i house colleagues. he had a very close working relationship with the longtime was the sonnor who of munoz rivera and that partnership produced the commonwealth change in the 50's, which changed. can autonomy. and other individual here -- henry gonzales, he gets his start in local

gregory the illuminator on commonwealth avenue. that structure as you see still standing but many of the windows boarded up, there was a pile of charge debris out in the street. the building was the site of the original church back in the 50s, it now houses the church library, offices, and sunday school classrooms. >> in the past have had priest living here and we are lucky that it did not, they do not have anybody at to come you know, the upper level. >>> this is the second damaging incident at an armenian facility in san francisco this summer. the casey the armenian school was tagged with graffiti back in july, now at this point investigators have drawn no connection between the two events. >>> first and jobless claims in california are down but experts we spoke to a that is not me businesses are hiring. the labor department shows an estimated 230,000 californians filed first-time claims last week. that is down from 243,000 the week prior. the former employment development department director says even with partial reopenings, th

then they treat the commonwealth like an atm.hink that the green new deal is aspirational on purpose. it is about how we transition to an economy and an earth that we can inhabit and that is just, and i think that it reflects a history of innovation, industrial and otherwise in america. we are very, very good at that. we are not as good historically at transition. this is to the point of the question. meaning, we move on to the next thing often, john, i think, without always taking care to pay attention to the consequences of that change. who's left behind? who's left out? i think the real opportunity now to win support for the green new deal and for the objectives behind it particularly those that have to do with moving us to a carbon-free economy, is how we bring folks who are involved in the carbon economy along. not just persuasion, but giving them a stake in moving from where we are to where we need to go. >> governor patrick, grateful for your insights. interesting time in the commonwealth subpoena to get up there myself an

we represent 16 regional councils throughout the commonwealth of pennsylvania and 94 construction unions, which all aspects of construction through the state of pennsylvania, collectively we have about 135,000 construction men and women in the commonwealth who are building major projects like the planting beaver county, which by the way, donald trump didn't start. that was started under the obama administration. i sigh press release he put on that -- saw a press release he put on that they mandated everybody show up for the event he was at. he stood up there and said he entity outt whole there, which isn't true. but i will go away from that for a minute. we have had the opportunity to meet several times through the years, and you have my highest respect. our union members are better off because of you and what you have done in your career as a senator and as vice president. we couldn't ask for a better friend to become president of the united states. us,it's just -- it saddens saddens me personally, with some of the stuff that is going on in our country, starting from the white house. sh

campaign that has been fierce, but always fueled by a shared commitment to the people of this great commonwealthmassachusetts, and the united states of america. i look forward to talking with congressman kennedy and working with him to make the lasting meaningful change i know we are both committed to. [applause] to my beautiful partner and best friend, my wife susan. since you married me 32 years ago, every day of my life has been brighter and fuller and more joyous. i am honored to walk through this life together and to celebrate tonight with you. have been witho me since that day in 1976 that i first decided to run for congress come i would not be here without you. teame greatest campaign staff, fellows, supporters, volunteers, the marquis -- that andy candidate has ever been blessed to know, you have my unending gratitude. your brilliance and creativity and passion inspire me everyday. to the greatest campaign manager of all time, john walsh, thank you.

the newly annointed secretary of state for foreign, commonwealth and development affairs came to theabour. the new foreign commonwealth and development office will deliver on this government mission to forge a truly global britain to defend all aspects of the british national interest and to project this country as an even stronger force for good in the world. can i thank him for that? but the truth is this is a complete mess. it has made a nonsense of his own review. the integrated department has come before the integrated strategy, thousands of staff with world— renowned expertise have been treated disgracefully, holding meetings in recent weeks for senior civil servants who can't even answer basic questions about how this department is going to operate. and why? because the government was shamed by a footballer into supporting some of the poorest children in this world. it doesn't bode very well for a commitment to the poorest people across the planet. the snp raised reports the government might ditch its commitment to spent 0.7% of national economic output on overseas development

he said it looked like we have things under control here in the commonwealth. i believe we do.ll if we needed additional help. but again he had stated and ai gree thi agree we have things in place to allow people to express their first amendment rights to express their pain and frustration, but at the same time keeping everybody safe. because we saw last night we can have 99.99% of people doing the right thing, but one person that wants to get out there and do the wrong thing. it caused a lot of harm and can even change the perception. so we're doing everything it takes in kentucky to make sure people can be heard but that we can keep them safe. >> final question, if i can, we saw images of civilians armed to the teeth on the streets of louisville yesterday, vigilante groups, militia groups, self appointed law enforcement. i'm curious, as governor of kentucky do you see any place of groups like this responding to protests? >> i see no place for what are often white supremacy groups in our society in general. they've protested me. they hung ne in effigy on our capitol grounds, w

on the heels of that, the commonwealth of virginia was sitting on the fence. they would form a new confederate government and at the conclusion of the the citizensl war, of the united states to reunite the country. many confederate officers would not be charged with the religious reason. many of those officers actually positionsand occupied within your leasees s grant -- ulysses s grant's administration. this flag is from the american civil war. this flag was outside his cell on a daily basis to remind him of the crimes he had committed against his government. we try to look at all aspects of this. this cell door is the most important artifacts from his incarceration here at fort monroe. behind the store, he would look out and realize that the american civil war was over and that the confederacy was no longer part of the historic narrative of the united states. we have taken a tour all the way through the civil war but there is so much more to see. in the early 20th century, fort monroe becomes an important training ground for the military. it is here that a m

issues that were critical not only to folks in my community but pennsylvania families across the commonwealth, that you could look at the investment we need to make in our young people, k-12 and also in terms of decay and early learning -- of pre-k and early learning. , they reallytaxes question them, whether or not they can stay in their homes. and i think about issues of health care and climate change, so many of these things -- the battle front of them are right in our state capitals. not every single issue is going to be solved in the oval office, certainly not in this oval office. but many of the issues that we face are happening at the state and local level, so i felt that was an important place to be involved, running a competitive race come in here we are. host: when and why did you decide to endorse joe biden? you look atnk if everything going on right now, it really has made more for him, what i said about the vice president when i endorsed him on the day he announced his campaign, that we really need a leader that has the confidence, the compassion, to really guide us through incre

the foreign, commonwealth and development office calls the action unacceptable. inquiry into the manchester arena bombing which killed 22 people hears that a0 minutes after the explosion, only one paramedic had arrived at the scene. this does break international law in a very specific and limited way. a government minister admits a new bill to amend the uk's brexit deal with the eu will break international law. heading towards the point of no return — andrew lloyd webber warns of the damage done by the pandemic on theatre and the wider world of arts. good evening. let's bring you more on one of our main stories that tougher restrictions have been imposed in bolton in greater manchester after a sharp rise in coronavirus cases there — the town now has the uk's highest infection rate. restaurants, pubs and cafes have been told they can only do takeaways from today and they must close by 10pm. the rise in cases across the country is being largely driven by a big increase in cases among 18—to—30—year—olds. it comes amid a continuing rise in new cases and a jump the la

collectively have about 135,000 construction men and women in the commonwealth, building major projects which donald trump didn't start. that was stored under the obama administration and i saw press release he put on that they mandated everybody chill up for the event that he was at out there, and then he stood up there and said that he created that whole entity out there, which isn't true. but i will go away from that for a minute, but you know, we've had the opportunity to meet several times through the years, and you have my highest respect. our union members are better off because of you, and what you've done in your career as a senator and as vice president. we couldn't ask for a better friend to become president of united states. it's just, it saddens us, saddens me personally with some of the stuff that is going on in our country, starting from the white house. we need the ship righted again. i really believe that you are the man that can do it. you have my 100% support. >> well, thank you. i have been union from the time i was a kid. my house you didn't go up -- we knew who bui

the commonwealth of the northern mariana island, which rely heavily on tourism, has not been immuned from the economic devastation resulting from covid-19. moreover, has been trying to it recover from two typhoons that wreaked havoc on the country in 2018. by extending the s.b.a. and fast programs to the commonwealth of the northern mariana islands, congress will extend valuable opportunity for small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs to receive support from qualified coumors on how to launch and grow their small businesses as well as recover from the economic catastrophes. in march, h.r. 61 was unanimously approved by the small business -- by the house small business committee. and i commend the sponsor of the legislation, mr. sablan, and miss raddy wagon, for erasing this inex-- raising this inequity to the community. the dedication they have shown to create greater parity to the entrepreneurs in all territories shows exactly how small business issues are neither democrat or republican issues. they are american issues. i urge all my colleagues to join me in supporting the s

. >> yet it is an overwhelming challenge for the commonwealth of pennsylvania and for many states acrosshe country in that we have unprecedented requests for this many states have not had widespread use of mail-in balloting in the past. in pennsylvania, you had this concern about so-called naked ballots. you have a process you get your ballot, put it inside one envelope, that envelope in a larger envelope, designed to protect the integrity of the vote, the privacy of that voter there are court cases suggesting 100,000 ballots might not be valid. can anything be done between new and election day do with that or do you think questions about these ballots could determine who wins? >> no i think there is a great deal that can be done. there is a great deal that is being done. education, voter awareness, what is not helpful is panic and chaos. and i challenge anybody to not feed into that. that helps the other side. and they know that. that's why they're trying to foment that. follow the instructions, vote early, we're going to have an outcome guaranteed to be reliable, and a true reflection

how does that play to those within the commonwealth? guest: any time you go to any of these events, you hear somebody say that joe biden is the third senator from pennsylvania. i do not know how well it does here the western part of the state. i think he is definitely experiencing a home bump, per se. in the eastern part of the state, he was the kid. he would cross state lines an and work in dcn come back. he did his rollcall vote from scranton, pennsylvania. i think it is important. i do not know how much it is known here in the western part of the state. host: from here on out to election day, what are things you are watching for? guest: i am looking at the legal battle in the supreme court. when the president came here, he went on an eight minute rant about how you should go to the polls. there is a lot of confusion in pennsylvania. that's a lot of fear discount could take a long time, especially here in a state that could end up one way or another. how these battles play out in court and how the rhetorical battles play out i think i
