president of the massachusetts senate. and massachusetts lieutenant governor. and governor. during coolidge's coming of age as a practicing politician. american politics, including his own republican party, were seized by a new impulse that called itself progressivism. the progressive movement championed many great causes and achieved some of them, including women's suffrage and a host of private, voluntary welfare initiatives. and institutions that included grace goodhue, coolidge's lifelong project of the education of the deaf. but when it came to government progressive ism sought to cast aside traditional constitutional principles of separation of powers and limited government and to replace them with activist, headstrong and supposedly scientific government that would reform society from top to bottom and remake human nature itself. progressive vision was a clever brand name. it appealed to americans innate commitment to progress that harkened back to our revolutionary founding. even as it sought to repeal all the works of that founding, it appealed for a time to coolidg

events in massachusetts got everyone's attention. soon after the adjournment of the annapolis convention, daniel shays organized several hundred impoverished farmers and marched to springfield. such rebellions by the people had been occurring quite regularly throughout 1786. in massachusetts, new hampshire, connecticut and vermont. rebellious farmers had closed courts, broken up farm auctions and attacked state legislatures. by the end of the year, nearly 9000 rebels had been organized with no real federal army and an inadequate militia. the situation threatened to get out of hand. during this period, abigail adams wrote to thomas jefferson regarding the rebellion. it is true, sir. the uprising has have been very alarming. they have even stopped the courts of justice in several counties. a few weeks after the final defeat of shays by the massachusetts militia in january 1787, the continental congress endorsed the annapolis proposal for a general convention and called upon all states to send delegates to philadelphia in may. daniel sh

we've just covered the founding of jamestown in massachusetts in the middle colonies. and last time we were talking about how diverse the colonies were getting not just british, but different people, how much more population, how much were growing, how the economy was booming, and how the great awakening was both dividing. colonies one from another, or rather people within, the colonies one from the another, but also providing a common experience right? this is where we've come from. where we're going is the revolution. we're talking about wars and we're talking about tensions. the theme of today is the colonists were whining freeloaders getting all the benefits of british citizenship. yep. without footing any of the cost. that's the motherland fought to protect them. they then objected to carrying any of the burden for paying their share of the costs of protecting them. we're going to talk about the situation at the end of the last war, what the solutions, including curb the freeloading colonists. just stay with me on this, okay? stay with me on this. the european in

it was impossible for me to return to massachusetts, he declared, without that. hiring a hack driver to convey him to sharpsburg, the boston refused to north without a souvenir. i picked up a rebel canteen and one of our own, he began. but there was something repulsive about the trodden and stained relics of that stale battlefield. it was like the table of some -- left and. one turned away, disgusted its broken fragments and muddy heel taps. ultimate lee, the senior holmes, settled for a bullet or two a button and a brass plate from a soldier's belt, together with a which i picked up. he explained he directed to richmond, virginia. it seal unbroken unbroken. the elder holmes was hardly alone in pondering propriety of his relics. indeed, the invited a fierce debate about what constituted conduct on a battlefield. yet strewn with wounded and dead bodies. even as own morbid curiosity delivered to the field. one philadelphia spectator registered indignation at the sight civilians plundering the shell plowed ground per lining, discarded muskets and other souvenirs. i

in the weeks that followed, the massachusetts lieutenant, on at least two more occasions. in october, he sent home a button cut from a dead rebel's coat, ensuring his wife, rebecca, she need not be afraid. most of their officers are gentlemanly and intelligent, he cautioned, but i could never find one, yet, who could define what their rights were, except as abolitionists wanted to steal all of their enslaved persons. before long, soldiers encountered civilian competition in their pursuit of relics. very powerful evidence that many loyal northerners immediately apprehended the significance of the antietam battle. the battlefield of wednesday, one soldier reported, is trampled by a small army of curiosity seekers from the west, north, and east. a narrow road leading into sharpsburg, daily choked with carriages, delivering civilians and aid workers to the battlefield. within a week, these civilians had pretty well cleared away all material evidence of the struggle, leaving only the few bodies that polluted the burial cruise to testify to the fight. many of these civilians fel

and becoming the massachusetts senate president. coolidge delivered, his famous faith in massachusetts, saying men do not make laws. they do, but discover them. laws must be justified by something more than the will of the majority. they must rest on the eternal foundation of righteousness. governor noem leads a state that captures the spirit of western independence with the humble moral framework of its state under god. the people rule. i cannot help but know that one popular president, the green mountains of vermont, announced while in the black hills of south dakota that he chooses not to run. perhaps a governor in south dakota will choose otherwise. thank you, governor, for your leadership, for your service to our country, and for being a shining example of the american spirit that coolidge deeply embodied. let's give a warm welcome to governor kristi noem, a leader making difference for the people of south dakota, and by her example, all americans. well, good afternoon. it's wonderful to be with all of you. thank you for inviti

a massachusetts-born officer who had had his 12th brigade into the cornfield site. neither time nor change could dim the remembrance of carnage too horrible to be real and yet too real to forget. a doleful drip of reports from the hospitals and hometowns where men recovered from the injuries continued to find hot and stockman of the army throughout that whole. issuing a keen reminder that grief and trauma were anything but linear. but, still, confronting the war's realities in this visceral way, i think it is important to say, set no great wave of disillusionment crashing through the ranks of the armies of the potomac. in fact, much to the contrary, it seemed only to harden or renew that army's resolve. we see many sorrowful sites, joseph callin would remark, but the battle must be fought and victory must be ours. rebellion must be put down at any price. like colllinwoods, he was a much-devoted mcclellan man. those dreaded sites. those men could not have been permitted to die in vain, a fate that seems increasingly likely with each new day of inaction. i am exceedin

the 54th massachusetts infantry regiment charges battery. wagner, demonstrating the prowess of african-american soldiers pioneering expanded recruitment of black soldiers helping close the door of african enslavement. however, the story is more complex than one regiments attack. 1863 charleston was a cauldron testing military and naval cooperation and experimenting with new technologies and tactics. charleston and firebrands sparked secession and hostilities commenced there in 1861. right. a united states flag over charleston would symbolize the eventual confederate defeat. militarily, charleston was a gateway to inland fronts. targeting confederate infrastructure. in 1862, dozens of blockade runners entered charleston, bringing 46,000 rifles, 3500 barrels of gunpowder, 11 field artillery batteries. one and a quarter million percussion caps and a quarter million prefab recruited cartridges, supplies to equip an entire field army halting these blockade runners was vital to the u.s. navy's wartime mission, keeping the port open was imperative

robert in massachusetts, democratic caller. we have cameras up on capitol hill in several locations today as we wait for republicans to make their way to a meeting in the basement of the capitol. there is the hallway heading into that meeting room where they are going to get behind closed doors. there is mike mccaul, chair of the foreign affairs committee in the house. he has made statements about the dangerous situation he believes we are in with what is happening in israel and gaza. and let's listen in what he is telling reporters now. mr. mccaul: our adversaries are watching and see weakness and dysfunction and plays into their hands that democracy doesn't work. that's dangerous. can't get anything passed on the floor. israel is going to need assistance to fight this war. and we don't have a speaker in the chair, we can't do that. >> thank you.

but i grew up in massachusetts, went to public schools. >> for you and ashley? >> i like to think i was an athlete, my favorite sport was football, but we observed the sabbath and unfortunately in high school i could not play football because of that. and i was able to get a full academic scholarship to columbia college and i went there and played football there. just left the game, and realize how football and life is the greatest training ground for people in business and life or anything. >> what did you do after you graduated from columbia? >> i pledge to go into harvard business school. >> after that, what did you do? >> my father-in-law had a couple box plants and he wanted me to join them. i did not want to. i wanted to go into business for myself. my father advised me since my wife at the time was the equivalent of an only child that i should do that. and out of respect, which i did, i did it for two years, and i was going to leave and i was going to ask what i could do to stay, and i would want to buy into the company, i would did not want to be working

judge, massachusetts has a right-to-shelter law like new york does.not for vets and their families? they don't have any rights. >> you know, when you think about it, laura, what is more patriotic than an army-navy game? and when you think about these are military families as you said, exservicemen, retired, academy graduates, they are all being told as you said to take a hike so that illegals can get a room, the truth is these people pay for this room in advance and the hotel is not even making an effort to get them another room. >> and this is really a microcosm of what is happening in america. where americans are taking a backseat to illegals, paying the bill for them. this is simply an outrage. call this a right-to-shelter state. and she can declare all the emergencies she wants. not accepting illegals, like jury hotel group is engaging,. >> we should celebrate those hotels and motels saying we are for people legally in the united states trying to scam the system. >> the best western refused to engage in that. while this other group is saying sayin

molly line has the story from foxboro, massachusetts for us this morning.ly. >> good morning. for the first time ever the army/navy game is coming here to new england. some fans, including the families of players and veterans, are scrambling to find new accommodations, new hotel rooms. reportedly some of those hotel rooms are going to arriving migrants. according to some reports some reservations long held by military families planning to attend the historic match-up now slated to be at gillette stadium have been canceled to accommodate migrant families which have a right to shelter under massachusetts law. more than 6,000 families are in shelters now. with new migrant arrivals the state is buying up hotel rooms for the use as emergency shelters. mark owns new jersey based hills dale travel and was stunned to get a mass cancellation email from one hotel management group. >> we recently were notified we are no longer able to accommodate any groups as the hotels are now being leased out to the state of massachusetts for refugees. >> hotel management that runs

helene attended wheaton college in massachusetts where she sang into another group the whea-tones. there she is in the back row with the black dress on. one more thing, as much as she left her singing, helene had a another passion. journalism. what did you think what's going to happen to her? everywhere she headed? >> for great things. i saw helene the christmas of december of 1979 at church. she told me that she was going off to denver to do this internship to further interests in journalism. and she was very excited about it. >> helene arrived in january 1980 to begin that internship at a radio station in denver. a long way from home. fortunately, she had relatives nearby. your family didn't worry about her going off to colorado because she was not going to be alone and she was staying with your aunt and uncle. >> exactly. >> then came that day, january 16th. helene had barely been there two weeks when she grabbed the bus from the radio station around 6 pm to go back to her aunt and uncle's house. she'd made the commute before without a problem. that night, helene pruszynski neve

and, i want to thank my dear friend, catherine al gore, the president of the massachusetts historical. for support and long-lasting friendship. and, it is exciting to visit with you. and, with andrew. this mythic another from scripps, we met there, and we have retained our friendship. i'm delighted to be here. gavin has told you what my book is about. i was going to talk about that. so i just want to stress that this book challenges the notion that african-americans had a monolithic experience. it's important that we know that, because somebody americans have a very slight understanding of african- american experiences. it doesn't matter there and finish your color. it is a very poor understanding, and certainly, if they know anybody, it's one-dimensional. and i challenge that notion that african-american experiences were one- dimensional. it is multidimensional. it dependent upon where one lives, where one other one was free or enslaved, whether it was on a large plantation or an urban area or louisiana or in the upper south. so much depended upon where one lives in terms of what exp

he estimates there are 22000 migrants housed across massachusetts right now. some of whom he says has jumped to the front of the line ahead of residents. >> we have constituents that have been waiting for years trying to get a shelter or veterans, let's say, that don't have a place to live but right now we are giving people shelter at a cost of they are saying $45 million. >> now that state rep thinks hotels are signing long term lucrative deals to house migrants which is a disservice to paying customers. a popular tourist destinations such as cape cod where he lives, migrants are guaranteed shelter under the state's right to shelter law which is antiquated. >> matt, thank you. and in fact the fox news at night common sense department is also a little concerned that army navy football fans including veterans and academy graduates are having trouble to find a place to stay because they got bumped from their hotels, so the rooms can be used to house migrants on the taxpayer's dime. turns out massachusetts as matt said is a right to shelter state, i guess that me
