professor cole: yes. >> ok. professor cole: all right. the last point i want to make is about her own marriage and her own household. this is actually in lucretia mott's own hand, written months before she died. the independence of the husband theire wife is equal and obligation is reciprocal. she is talking about a certain sort of relationship in which husbands and wives are a unified, companionist pairing, not one in which the relationship is economic in nature, is particularly on even in terms of hierarchy, that she has to ask for permission. they are a team. this is a way in which people talk about good marriages today. that she isidea calling for it then does put her in a modern, ahead of her time perspective, but it is not for the radical groups that she was a part of. they really did see the development of these relationships as being on the forefront of being able to challenge the wrongs of their society overall, that it started in the household. in fact, william lloyd garrison, , andhe talked about this this is later, talked abou

cole, mr. davis, i want to thank minority leader mccarthy, i want to congratulate jim mcgovern, chairman of the rules committee, for his fairness and attentiveness to everybody's position. we didn't reach agreement, i'm sorry we didn't reach agreement, but tea wee took a lot of the ideas that our friends on the republican side of the aisle suggested. there were good suggestions. and we incorporated them in what we are doing. we are included in this resolution such as retiring any software platform be approved by the chief administrative officer. some technology that is not accepted or approved to work would be used. the chief administrator officer and allowing committees to hold hybrid hearings, which i just referred to, and both reform in person participation simultaneously. however, mr. speaker, we were unable to reach a consensus on adopting 21st century tools. 21st century tools that would allow the house to meet its constitutional responsibilities during this emergency which is why democra

-- >> congressman cole? >> i agree very much with what the chairman had to say. he's concerned about war powers long before there was a republican president. we were working on this one -- when president obama was in. you can't question jim mcgovern's credentials in this regard. he has raised this from an institutional standpoint. i think he's the ideal person to lead this discussion because he demonstrated his loyalty and interest in defending the institution of the house of representatives, regardless of who was president and who was speaker. so we approach it very much in that fashion. and i think we were talking together, somebody made the point, we have very distinguished witnesses. wouldn't it be wonderful if no one, at the end of the day, could tell if it was a republican witness or a democratic witness? these are people here to talk about the appropriate balance within the constitution of the united states. so there's a very widespread sense, and it spans the political spectrum and overlaps the partisan divide in congress, that we have simply given away t

cole: that is not the question in this case. justice sotomayor: once we decide the case in your favor, then that question is inevitable. it may not be if there are single-sex bathrooms, there might be one answer, meaning, what harm would other women feel if a man is using a single-sex bathroom? it might be another if it is two locker rooms. girls and boys. who walks in is something you cannot control. that is what the question is. mr. cole: the reason deciding this case will not decide that case -- even if you were against us, that case can arise because it is a sex specific rule, and anyone affected by a sex specific role can argue it is discriminates against them because a reasonable person in their shoes would experience significant harm. >> i understood you to say that if your client had been fired for using the women's bathroom, that would be a violation of title vii. mr. cole: in our view, if we were litigating that case, which we are not, the restroom was a hypothetical and not a reason why she was fired, but were we liti

andy coles has denied having an inappropriate relationship with her.ho first publicly revealed his past. in his 2014 autobiography, he wrote of his elder brother, "he had joined special branch and was undercover, living a double life." 2a years after she met andy coles, jessica learned his true identity. it was total shock. you obviously, you remember the things that you said to one another, the times you were intimate with them, and then think, "who was listening?" andy coles was one of many police spies, who posed as activists to gather information on protest movements. his unit, the special demonstration squad, is set to be investigated at the upcoming inquiry into undercover policing. an internal metropolitan police inquiry has resulted in no criminal proceedings and the police watchdog found no grounds to investigate andy coles. but the met said it is credible he had a relationship withjessica, and if he was still a serving officer, he would have had a case to answer for alleged gross misconduct. we asked andy coles for an interview, or a statemen

lily cole? us also has choices to make right now in terms of how this is played out. we know we need to move away from fossil fuels, we know we need to move towards renewables, because the science is very clear that we will run into more and more of these crises if we don't make these transitions. and i think that there are encouraging signs that that movement is possible. both from a political level but also from an individual level where you see decentralisation of energy, and there has been movement towards decentralisation in covid generally where people focus more on local economies, on growing their own vegetable patch, and if you think about that when it comes to build local energy cooperatives and trying to take local ownership of energy, then we'd be proactive players in the move towards renewable. inger, we've seen a reduction in the demand for oil which has made prices plummet and fossil fuels, do you think this will assist the transition to renewable energy? i was too optimistic so i

lily cole.sis, i use this metaphor of how two football teams in the uk for example, arsenal and chelsea might be completely against each other, their fans might be antagonistic to each other and when england another country like france, those same fans willjoin together and stand side by side to try and beat the new enemy. it's a metaphor for, what is the enemy that we need, in order to come together as a global community? and i was talking about it in terms of the climate crisis, which does impact every single human being living on this planet regardless of their situation, and hoping that that might be an enemy that we would band together to work against. and i think covid has been that enemy, and it has been extraordinary to see how the global community and also local communities have worked together and how much kindness and solidarity and cooperation has emerged in response to crisis. whether we take that metaphor and apply it immediately, which would be my hope, is questionable, but the re

and you know, my friend tom cole and i, we are from different political parties. i'm a liberal, he's a conservative. but we are both institutionalist. we both respect this institution. we both respect the constitution. we think that over the last few decades, congress has been too willing to cede authority that is rightfully ours to the executive branch. the executive branch has been only too willing to take it. at the end of the day, that doesn't serve the american people. i think it undermines the constitution. but it doesn't serve our constituents. we are the house of representatives. we are the closest to the people. we have to get elected every two years. you can't serve in this institution unless you have been voted on by the people. i think we are closer to where the people are. and so on some of these decisions that are being made, we should have a role in them. we are not right now. i think that does not serve our constituents well. so this is a good time to do it. by the way, this hearing is not going to be about donald trump or barack obama or bill clin
