>> the meeting didn't last but a few minutes because right at the time all this was happening, capital policeman broke in and said we are getting out of here. i need everyone to come right now and there was a mad scramble literally running out of the capital building. i saw young staff. i even saw senator bird carrying a couple books and having some difficulty walking quickly but nonetheless evacuating as we were all attempting to leave the building not sure where this will lead. >> host: you saw the smoke coming from the pentagon across the mall. the remember what your fellow senators said? >> guest: it was a sense of disbelief and a sense of real concern that there had to have been a connection of what we see on tv, how this was all understood, there is tremendous confusion, a very palpable -- something unusual in the extreme. >> host: when you heard a plane visiting the capital what did you think? >> guest: think of our own personal safety and part for the mad scramble out of the building, the odd thing was where we ought to go. i remember just like you see in the movies, the suv i

she was working all of the time. the only time i saw her actually, i remove this so clearly. she wanted to make sure i learned english. when i came here i did not know english. she was very strict but here's how you need to learn you have to memorize 100 vocabulary words every night. every night she would make sure she grilled me on the spelling, the use of the word, the definition 100 words. a lot of kids might resent that. here's the thing i was asleep because my mother was working multiple jobs. by the time she came home i was asleep at eye member being awakened every night to be drilled in these vocabulary words. since my mother every night why am i doing this? without thinking for a moment about how tired she must have been in the kind of sacrifice she was making every night she was coming home to say i want you to have your best life, this is why we are doing this. we just never really became close. we fought a lot, i did not really get to know her until she was diagnosed with what turned out to be metastatic cancer. i was her caregiver for eight years while she fought

the single time the most world leaders have been in camp at any one time. the incident want to go back to his 1961. april 1961. president kennedy inaugurated in january succeeding president eisenhower. bad things are being planned by the scenes with the cia, u.s. government and others passed off to the administration you see the photo of the top right of pulitzer prize winning photo called serious steps. what's interesting about this i think from a human and political point is that president kennedy inherited the operation. it was launched, and did not go well hence the name. riches across the political and personal i'll and invites president eisenhower to come to camp david and help them understand how to get to this how do i fix this mess, what do i do? it's a very poignant and significant moment i think part of the new upstart democrat inviting the old guard five-star general to talk about what to do. i think it's a very humble may be possibly desperate measure. very humble way to recognize leadership and what passes between administrations and talk about

he was the guy at the time. she marched right in there and said i think i deserve a spot on your television network. i got you through the depression and you owe me. he thought about it for a little while. she had been rejected by the other networks. but she was not taking no for an answer.. he said okay let's try it and that is how goldberg's started. this is the kind of thing that goes on throughout her career. she was so dedicated to work on this in particular and in some ways eventually it turned out to be somewhat of a downfall. but really just such a powerful woman and t wasn't surprised behind the scenes. she loved to dress beautifully. she didn't cook and she put out a lot of health stresses that would cost like $1.50. and had a successful cookbook so was also a master of her image. >> it is a show that i recall seeing as a kid and constant reruns. talk about your show, what was the premise and were you able to interview any of the actors in the show? this is the quintessential one of the first family sit

the national the national intelligence estimates at the time the us national intelligence at the time assessed that the soviets had far fewer nuclear missiles than they were claiming. it was bluster. and then khrushed off backs down on berlin and that seems to confirm pincofsky's intelligence. at the same time pankowsky says kristoff might do something desperate. cia gave pinkovsky the code name hero the vast documentary intelligence that he provided was marked with the code word ironbark. and then the oral debriefings he gave that was the chickadee intelligence. and this is this is what we do we give multiple code names to mask the source of this intelligence colonel kuklinski who spied for cia and 1970s. his codename was gull and the intelligence from him was called chrysanthemum. so meanwhile the kennedy brothers the president and the attorney general are pressuring cia to do something about the castro regime. bay of pigs was embarrassing it looks like they want revenge. they don't like being humiliated. they liked covert action christopher andrew mentions that they approved that p

and of course, you're with president bush all the time. so tell us a little bit about how that they went forward and in particular the picture that was taken at the elementary school where president bush responded. >> that date was just planned out to be the most amazing day in my time at the white house obviously. and for me, nine months into the job i was still learning a lot, traveling with the president and all that so i'm in the classroom and i see the whisper of that moment and obviously, that expression on the president's face changed. iknew something was wrong . i knew the president well enough at that stage, walking into the classroom behind the separate classroom there was a holding room and that's where the presidents and staff were there. there was a tv in the room so immediately when we leftthe classroom , we walk in, and seeing those images on the tv screen, the liveimages of the burning towerson never forget . i was stunned . i knew that day, the day would be in terms of history. not knowing how big, how bad it would get. eve

rest of the time so they could have the best of both city life and country life at the same timell drive instead of a single huge factory, he wanted a string of small factories. electrical power factories up and down the river and around each factory would be small land leases or sales for workers so they could have five or 10 acres of farm for 20 if they wanted and they could afford it because he offer financing for buying the land and he would offer advice on how to farm and rent them farm machinery to farm them. when they were done with their crops which would only take a few weeks, they could go to the steady job and make a regular wage and improve their land, educate their kids and so on. so he built this vision around a new kind of american life. act what he thomas edison created in northern alabama. this tells the story of how they tried to do that and why they failed. finally, the book tells what happens next. the story moves eventually toward the creation of one of the greatest achievements of government in the united states, a project called tennessee valley, tpa which

i mean, i have mixed feelings about the time growing — it was a very picturesque place to grow up. there was a peaceful castle and cathedral. but at the time — and we're talking about the late �*60s and the early �*70s — growing up as a kid and then moving into puberty, it was kind of — it was very isolating in a lot of ways, because i didn't really identify with a lot of people around me. there weren't many brown kids in school. no, not at all. i mean, if, you know, barely any. so i didn't really have anyone that i could identify with in terms of anyone who looked like me, particularly, apart from my brothers and my parents who are — my brothers are eight and five years older than me, so we didn't really hang out together or anything like that. and i had friends, but it was... inevitably, i kind of had this split personality, almost, where i'd be living in a home where we'd talk about india a great deal, or my parents would be speaking punjabi quite a lot... so you were in kent but you felt very indian? sometimes, but then, when i would go to school, i'd have all the same reference

the law in virginia at the time was public meetings had to be segregated. he thought that was a big just because we just fought world war ii and he was aware of the court decisions in the naacp in higher education. so we pushed and he talked with students, faculty, ultimately the president of the university and the agreed to have non-segregated meeting. from all i could tell it was a frisbee at that time public on the campus. 1500 people came. that wasn't an epiphany. he didn't become a crusader after that picky what on and the first daughter was born. he was a young married couple and -- [inaudible] but by the time he got -- in the '50s are interesting. i write about that in my book what's happening in african-american struggle, brown, king, malcolm x, baldwin, so things are heating up the things are moving in a pail of the white people moving in a parallel. 1960 the campaign is a pivot point because -- [inaudible] ignites mass protests across the south and also ignites youth activism. so breaking through the cold war, apathy, and 1960 when john kennedy ran

i was next to the two of them much of the time. not the whole time, but a lot of the time, and just comparing notes and checking in with each other. >> when did you first see the photographs of you in the gallery and jason comforting you? and then, when did you first talk to him about that moment? rep. wild: so, while i was still in the safe room, my son texted on our family thread. like many families, we have a family group thread, and texted me a copy of the picture. he said, mom, i think you should see this before somebody brings it to your attention. and i just remember looking at it and being horrified thinking i can't believe that this picture was taken or that i was in this situation. it seemed really surreal. i couldn't remember ever being on my back. i kept looking at it thinking, i don't remember being in this position. and then -- that is when i first saw it. i guess it started to go viral pretty quickly because i had colleagues coming over and showing it to me on their phones. did you see this? did you see that? then i t

he was the guy at the time. and she marched in there and said, i think i deserve a spot on your television network. i got you through the depression on radio. and you owe me. and he thought -- she had been reject by all the other networks including him once and she was not take nothing for an answer. so she demand this and he said, all right, let's try it. and that is how the goldberg's started. so, she -- this is very, like -- this is the kind of thing that guess on for her over and over throughout her career. she really was so dedicated to work and to this character, i think in particular, and in some ways turn out to be a downfall for her. so dedicated to this, but really just like such a powerful woman and knew it and would was nat afraid to use it behind the scenes inch public she presented this image of america's mother. behind the scenes she loved to dress beautifully. she did not cook. and yet she put out a line of house dresses that would cost 1.50 and had a successful cook book. so she was also a master

instrumental in the march. any time he saw me, i remember once i saw him in washington for one of the marches on washington, one of the anniversaries. he was standing behind this area they blocked off for the dignitaries he was always that kind of person i think i've gotten to the age now i can look back and reflect on these moments and to know these people would be such giants in history but i'm still very fortunate to have them around and to have learned from them. >> you left college and became a teacher those types of connections and ability to expose students to leaders and people who were out in the world making change seemed really important to you. i was really struck by the experiences you tried to, you went through great pains to put for your students, to put together for your students taking middle schoolers from dc to the anniversary from the montgomery march and from the inauguration. when you were thinking about that as an educator, what was driving you to create a those moments for these students? >> to s

so those were two of the common phrases. there were timese was progress i think superficially but almost an illusion during obama's first term when he sent the surge of 100,000 troops to afghanistan. look like they would be making some progress in terms of taking a real, weakening the taliban, building up the afghan government. we built tons of schools and clinics and hospitals and roads in afghanistan. we spent a ton of money over there and looked on the surface like progress but underneath what became clear in the documents i obtained for the book where people didn't have any faith this was going to last, they knew there were some fundamental flaws in the whole strategy. number one was the whole purpose of obama's surge strategy was to build up the afghan government so that the afghan people particularly in rural areas would side with the government over the taliban, that they would fight against the taliban to protect their own government. but in the field people said the afghan government was clearly corrupt, that afghans had no faith in

so that's why it was just the timing of it. and it was my obligation, i felt like it was my duty to my people to change the narrative of the way the world was painting on people, which is again what's happening now. so your concern was as lama phobia, arising from generalizing the, the acts of some terrorist and saying, well that's the whole religion or a whole range of people. that was your concern. yes. range of people. and of course because $911.00 was linked to ghana. sad was the why the muslim community, but then in particular i've got a son because every time i spoke to people and they would ask me, where is your background from? i say i've got a sense like, oh summer been like he's not i've got so yeah that's, that doesn't relate to me. but that's the view that people had of i've got a son. so i felt like i was the, the fighter for the i've got an identity and i did that then. and at that time there was no social media, things going viral. so now that i'm speaking up, i feel does a lot of my god follows feel that it's ver

perhaps this is the time to utilize that to launch into the conversation. thank you for your time. prof. chemerisky: truly my coming up next, we will head to lake tahoe, where evacuees are returning, and so are tourists, so what the caldor fire continue to get lifted, and full containment is expected in a few weeks, but even though that was relegated to the south lake tahoe area, that was the main area of concern, the entire region has certainly been impacted, both for the residence and the businesses that count on tourists. joining us right now to talk about returning to lake tahoe is the president and ceo of incline village,re. andy, -- andy, thank you for taking the time. nice to have you. andy: thank you. kristen: lake tahoe was in the crosshairs, and you are on the other site of the lake, and i know there is late summer and early fall. talk about that. what has been the impact on you? andy: yes, the whole region got impacted. about half of the tahoe population was evacuated, the geographic area, and it was over the important labor day holiday, but we all felt around the region

" came out at the same time the slate story did. "the times" reported that the fbi looked into this matter. spent several weeks looking into the matter and ultimately concluded there could be innocuous explanation for the contacts. but that was basically that. that was basically how to resolved. alpha bank and its kremlin-connected executives have always vociferously denied the allegations that they had anything to do with the trump campaign or any kind of election interference. in fact, alpha bank claimed into a pair of lawsuits that the allegations or the intimations in this reporting were all some sort of giant frame-up. they claimed that these computer scientists, these computer researchers fabricated these server communication records in order to smear their company and smear the trump campaign. here's where we get to tonight's breaking news because that quite baroque theory that the unexplained server look-ups between this bank and the trump organization, you know, they are not evidence of a and not innocuous pings. alfit was

such time as i may consume. -- i yield myself the balance of my time. madam speaker, from the 2016 about a still day truck attack in france to the 2017 deadly car ramming in charlottesville to the 2017 attack that took the lives of darren drake and seven others, we've seen the use of vehicles to carry out terrorist attacks become disturbingly common. our nation faces a complex and evolving threat landscape, but the threat of vehicles ramming attacks is not going away. as long as would-be terrorists seek to use rental vehicles as a weapon of terror, we must provide rental dealers with the ability to do their part. i urge my colleagues to support the darren drake act, and i yield back the balance of the time. the speaker pro tempore: the question is will the house suspend the rules and pass the bill h.r. 4089, as amended. those in favor say aye. those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, 2/3 having responded in the affirmative, the rules are suspended, the bill is passed, and without objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. for what p

and that was the first time i've ever seen my dad cry. d i knew the worst had definitely happened if he was that worried. >> and that was the first time i saw my dad cry too. and, you know, he was always this big, strong man. and when you see that, you -- it's like, "okay. this is -- this is not good." >> that's got to be a terrible thing to tell your kids because they want -- they want you to tell them, "this is going to be okay." >> dad always had all the answers. >> and you can't tell them this is going to be okay. >> no. you don't want fabrication. >> across town that morning, pennsylvania state trooper fred caldwell was on the case. his first call had been to margaret dolan, kathy's mom. >> i remember asking her if she had noticed any changes recently or anything in her demeanor that was unusual. and she said that in the last four to six weeks or so, she just wasn't herself. >> then the trooper asked one of those probing and indelicate questions that cops have to ask. >> i asked her mom if she had any indication that she was seeing an
