, and the books and a lot of the educational programs and symposiums and work with a collection of about 824,000 objects, but i have a real interest in photography, and we have also 500,000 photographs in the national museum's archive center and i've been working very hard in the year that i've been at this museum. i have a 30-year career at the smithsonian and i just joined the museum in the last year and these photographs are of much interest to me at the archive center. >> so you wrote an article about the collection. tell us why you wrote this article? a virtual tour of history? >> thanks, richard. we have a great magazine. american indian magazine that is a members magazine for our museum and have become more and more familiar with it offer time so when i was asked for the opportunity to consider what photographs we had on-line for the public to see and for students to study online, it was a great opportunity because i was able to review and get really deep into all of the collections of photography that are online about 25,000 photographs of these 500,000. we're continuing to work

his suv and decided they couldn't plant the bomb and always had his suv and to pull the prom and it was a technical marvel because replaced back door of the suv and to match the paint color exactly. they did all this and mossad pulled the trigger. and at one point, that one moment, while they were surveilling and waiting for a moment to strike, they looked, and looked again someone leaning on the car was guess who? general qassem soleimani and they thought we can take them both out. and permission was denied and the only legitimate target and qassem soleimani went off and is just an unbelievable story. and that whole initiation because because that has always been a fraught proposition at the cia. and for decades. and to go through confessions where the israelis. and bush signed off on the deal as long as nobody talked about it. in this chapter that i wrote in the book. >> when you exit your interviews with those cia directors what happened and comment. >> but in the end where tom brennan who gets frustrated with me asking repeatedly for commen comment. he finally looked at me and s

of parents and seminal families and husband and wife and these troops to send on them and then captures them and we don't know what their fate was but then certainly they moved last. >> can you comment in some cases enslaved people fighting with the seminoles can you comment on the extent of slaveholding? >> for the enslaved african americans. and the ultimate fear with the indian uprising that can sweep across the south. so this is the ultimate fear. that relationship between african-americans and native people is quite complex and those who would cultivate. with those life plans across the south but there were fugitive slaves with the cherokees that were embraced by native families that were incorporated into the nation's so in that spectrum a relationship listen to broader perspective and to places of refuge to be potentially allies. >> and then before and after removal to take the indian land and to eliminate the cultural presence and also any indian communities believed generating to add? >> talking about policy, i suppose you could step back and suggest that when we say policy we

don't get rid of gas and coal and oil and that we don't have a make for all plan put in place and we don't raise taxes on american enterprise, that would kill the economy. so -- look, i congratulate him, but i am not going to puts a side conservative principles. >> areas you think you can work with him? >> i've not spoken with president-elect biden. i expect i'll do so at some point but i presume there is a long line of people wishing him a well and offering to work in a collaborative way. yeah, a number of places where we can work together. health care is one of those. look. obamacare not working for millions and millions of americans and we have to fix it. i would rather see is overturned and replaced but unless the court tells us to do that, we have to fix it the way it is and something we can do. we need to get drug prices down and find a way to end surprise billing. we have some ideas on that. an area the president-elect has spoken about i agree on is finding help with family with kids. a more extensive child tax credit is something that we can work on and entitlement reform and

and comfort and feedback.ut go on, sorry. >> and you often said lien and. you don't stick up for your you. and it's so true. and i write in the book how it's really easy to stick up for other people and tell other people's stories. it was hard for me to tell this story. so i wasn't always telling my story. i was telling the story of my parents, my mother. she didn't speak to me for about a week after she read the book actually. so i talk about addiction, i talk about mental health and i bear a lot of secrets in that sense. and i found that my goodness, i didn't want to talk about discrimination. i didn't want to raise my hand and say this is happening to me. is this true. don't treat me this way. i should be valued more. i didn't want to do those things. and i found that out about myself, which was a little bit shocking that i talk the talk and i could defend other people and prosecute cases and stand up for victims, but it was really hard for me to do it for myself. .. >> and i read about it in the book one o

and shared spaces and closing the block down and so forth. i also think it does a good job of talking about and outlining the needs of the most vulnerable residents in san francisco. i will say that particularly when it comes to housing issues, preventing renter evictions and displacement sha, acquiring hotels and motels for supportive housing for people that are experiencing homelessness, and preserving affordable housing funding i think show a comprehensive look, although i agree with supervisor mandelman's point, in terms of addressing street homelessness and really looking at temporary solutions, there's less talk and more work that needs to be done. i will say that one thing from the record that's quite clear, especially when we talk about housing issues, is the need for additional funding to fulfill many of the recommendations that are laid out, such as building enough affordable housing, helping tenants, helping small landlords with back rent issue. there was just a report issued today by the b.l.a., as much as $32 million of rent is u

hands and we are in control of our lives and our communities and our businesses and our investments and our ideas. that's a ptty good world we used to have and we could have it again. it's capitalism, it's liberty but it's not through state control. >> another one of the great questions here is okay, how do help, what are we all supposed to do right n? who do we put pressure on, is it politicians, companies, what can each person on this lifestream do if they want to be part of seeing this reform take place? >> i will go back to the mid-1990s. microsoft is going to take over the entire internet using sort of leveraging with its control of the personal computer and the administration didn't want to do anything about it. they didn't want to get into it. they wanted the opposite. i scratch your back you scratch mine. i give you a monopoly, you kick back some money. that's the way that it worked in the clinton administration and then an attorne in attorney genn iowa, tom miller small towns and riverboats and we say you know what we are not going to live under this monopoly of microsoft. so,

which is airb for cars and delivery ptforms. and to and with a platform cooperative.still working on these issues that was almost ten years and also phd students and insta cart and delivery apps. and let us know in the q&a. >> and the subtitle of the book when the economy got hijacked and the question that want to address is what happened? i want to say for the nonprofi. and an interesting story. and then we can go into detail. following the maker space and the time bank in this loca. so the easiest way to talk about what happened would be the term failure to thrive. one of them failed one thrives in some ways and not in others and with those dynamics with the admissions may hold important lessons such a parcels and i can. and they comprise ma more people to get more attention. so so pretty much in the early days things were pretty good on these platforms. so making a full-time living on these platforms ways hard even in the earldays. that was true for a couple of reasons. so in e very earliest days it was more than minimum wage and that peoe could get from those skil

easy and it was perfect and it fit. but i understand how now if you're looking back you have the success that you have, you wouldn't have to change your name. and it's a different time now that i have to ask you, we always asked what would you go back and tell youryounger self ? you felt you were nervous about, you miscarried . you were about medical, your treatment with medicine, a woman who has kids in this business and so on and so forth but when you look at what's happening now, this racialreckoning . we had, i call it the summer ofgeorge floyd . if you could go back and tell your younger self in the wake of jacob blake shooting, what would you tell yourself back when you were reporting about trayvon martin or when you are entering news television, would you say to that sunny. >> that's a tough one. ididn't know you were going to ask that . what would i tell my younger self? i would, when i was younger i definitely thought that if you did excellent work, that you would succeed. and i think that was a very simplistic

and the military and in the civil war. can you talk about that quick. >> where the civil war began an elderly man as far as publishers go but he was a confederate infantry men demand for three and half years and five many battles and louisiana and returned home at the end of the fighting like half a million other veterans who have seen battles staging guerrilla attacks and to be knowledgeable about those tactics and this is something that does the rise many like them militia men that were confederate veterans who knew how to stage of military assault. >> that is an interesting insight that all the white men who participated in the civil war, that's where they learned organized violence and in fact does he not in the civil war? >> it was one of those last bites in the place called the red river and appears to participate in a massacre of union soldiers. >> killing union soldiers who surrendered. >> there is a line in the book after you told the story and you say chances are better than half that if edward paul was there so

it and they had seen people put and medicine doesn't work for anybody and it's here and here and some guys insist that they're angry about it and they want to try that and up will visit with a man that they were interviewing when they went to vietnam and killed people. he still carrying that around in his heart he killed people and something should have been done for him and he had been around for 40 years. that is terrible, and we need people to help cure those kinds of men that do things and help them get past that. it's a journey. >> it is. i read a book a few years ago and i hope i don't mangle the authors name but he wrote a book called tribes and was talking about pts and why so many veterans struggle with pts. he concluded it was because in most places and for most veterans they don't get that reception back and are not greeted by their community and are not helped to understand what's happening to them as they say it is more the spiritual cleansing. in a way, as well most veterans don't get to tell their story and there's no safe place for them to talk about what they've exper

they were our sons and daughters, our brothers and sisters, and our fathers and mothers.ame at a high price, paid by those who suffered and died on the front lines as well as by those who endured hardship and uncertainty on the home front. it was won by an abiding belief in freedom and democracy and by the strength of character, courage and resilience that defied all odds. it was won by a generation defined as the greatest, not only by what they achieved and more but by the peace and prosperity they created after. their legacy is of hope and world order, and they pass this on to all of us. late senator, my own father who served in a regimen combat team, they return home to fulfill the promise of citizenship and contribute to a life where all things are possible for everyone. like you, i stand on the shoulders of all of these men and women and can stake my claim to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness because of their actions. with after the war, they transformed their fight against tyranny into a life based on the democratic values and purpose, showing us that demo

and trump was on the phone and trump polily rebuffed the request and went back in and voted. this for those of you that don't know, he couldn't go like this. he couldn't raise his ms because he broke both his arms and one of his legs when he w shot down area but he always gestured in a political rally, hiarms were straight up like that. typically in a vote, the vote goes up 1 25 minutes, sometimes takes 40 minutes before they blow the whistle and everybody comes in and rushes in at t end all at the same time and it's chaotic and confused and you can never hear what they're saying but here are gestures, yes if they say yeah ornate, that's all he was dog is just a habit to do that, you can hear a pin drop and everybody had voted. people analyze thathing like a wrestling tourney but it was just happenstance, really. >> i wanto ask a self-interested question here . iniscussing among other ings his frieship with johnny apple, you use the phrase at that moment in vietnam with apple startea mutually beneficial association with the press. talk about his relations with the press and w

and she kind of looked at him and said, yes, mr. chairman, and she left. and she went back to her subcommittee. and she comes back a couple days later to the full committee, and she says, mr. chairman, i want to report back to you, i found $2.5 million to cut out of the bill. julia, that's just wonderful. wherever did you find it? right out of your district, mr. chairman. and he never bothered her again. martha griffiths who was a power in her own right said of julia hansen, that she knew how to exercise power than any women who she had seen in any legislature, and coming from martha, that's high praise. so here we have a campaign postcard of martha griffiths who was one of the influential women members from the 1950s into the 1970s. she represented a michigan district. and like some of the earlier women here, like julia butler hansen, she has a lot of experience before she ever comes to congress. she's a lawyer. she serves as a judge in michigan. and she's elected to the house in 1954. she comes in in 1955. and she too very quickly moves into positions of

kirschbaum and mr. mcguire and mr. tumlin. >> operator: there are three callers waiting on the line. callers, i would like to remind you you have two minutes to speak, at which point in time i will give you a 20-second warning. hello, caller. your two minutes begins now. >> caller: thank you, chair aaron peskin. alita dupree for the record, she and her. this is painful and concerning because i think that we can do better and perform at a higher level. i don't think that we have to shut down a subway to keep it in a state of good repair. i'm not speaking academically, because the new york city subway, which is in new york city, one of the largest systems in the world, has rarely shut down. and the things that causes it to shut down are generally major weather-based catastrophes, like super storm sandy. up until recently that system ran 24/7. it was covid cleaning where they decided to close it at night. and there is some outcry from the public on the 24-hour service, it's disruptive. so it's a high-capacity system in sa

that most of our business loss has been in the food and beverage and leisure and travel industry, and it's resulted in over 130,000 jobs lost, which is predominantly -- which has predominantly affected vulnerable populations, and prop h is something that helps sustain and support our restaurants and other businesses and helps get new businesses up and going at a time when we've lost more businesses than ever before. so i think, on balance, that prop h is extraordinarily helpful. it's my understanding that there are carveouts for culturally sensitive districts, and i think it will ultimately be a positive and helpful force for the city. but the commission as a whole -- i'm speaking here as -- i look forward to working with all of you, and happy to help you any way i can. thank you. >> good afternoon, commissioners. my name is robert sutton, and i live in district five. i'm really happy to see prop h pass. at least in my neighborhood, i'm seeing a lot of businesses close. most recently, love and hate, a ve vegetarian sandwich store, closed after 21 years. i don't think there's a need of

and higher with lgbt americans and working-class americans and jewish americans and over half are nativemericans in the highest share of the nonwhite vote for 60 years. president trump has turned the republican party into a modern multiracial working-class coalition and that is a historic shift and a once in a century shift and meanwhile trump has helped turn the democrats into the party of the coastal and urban elites and look where biden is and got his support wall street, lawyers, professors and all of this gave biden huge advantages. you big money and over twice as much is the president but he had something else, money can't buy and the alignments of bias. big media and big tech. early study found big media is over 90% negative about trump and bite the election and look like 100% and how could that not suppress the vote and how could that whole washington post and abc with biden 17% ahead in wisconsin and how could that not suppress the vote? big tech suppressing the message and suppressing information that could hurt biden. trump had the entire establishment against him and they wer

and it will spark eisenhower and his youth and later his career.robably could not find a site in washington, d.c. that is more suited for dwight eisenhower to have a memorial. this square is surrounded by health and human services which used to be called health education and welfare which was started during the eisenhower administration and then behind you, you have the department of education again, formerly hew that started during the eisenhower administration. the federal aviation administration, again, during the eisenhower administration and the jewel in the crown, if you will, the air and space museum and of course, nasa which began during the eisenhower administration. so it's perfectly suited for ike. as we walk into the memorial from this corner, we have a column here that has the five stars which was, of course, the insignia for generaliz eisenhow and other generals during world war ii, when the legislation was passed in 1999 that created the eisenhower commission, unique to this presidential memorial was the fact that it called for him t

and and and in healing perspective. those were the three reasons why but it becomes and the trade off of that and example of that and the board had approved and city hall allowed us to go forward in 2014 and and staff levels from 14 our five year access returns in the five years ending 2013, or i should say june of '13 was negative 37 basis points. and in the past six years, we out performed by about 2% annually. that value added, allen can commute the numbers but if the range of two and a half billion dollars or more compared to our median clear returns. two and a half billion dollars of value added have call in hospital not just of the pfe but also their benefits, work tools, travel, et cetera, et cetera, all in costs both direct and indirect of those 10 additional ftt over six years, it's been about 20 to $22 billion. maybe 24 by now. so, the way i look at it is we've earned about 100x return in terms of the additional costs we incurred versus the additional value that we've earned. >> this is brian, am i cutting som

and floods and famine. something that characterized him throughout his career. he had a passionate humanitarian stream and that was activated by the suffering in the balkans as was his very postwar sense that america had to leave and so he was not going to stop until he had a deal and that relentlessness that peter mentioned is what bosnia brought out in him. the same qualities didn't work in other places but all of the strengths came together and he achieved what his claim to history that he supports. >> listening to you and thinking about how the first iraq war, 1990, where in writing the book he wanted to take out references to there was a line about maybe we should have stayed longer. he didn't want that in their, suggesting maybe he thought mistakes were made. >> i think jim baker was a pragmatist. he wasn't all about imposing a freedom agenda. he was very calculating about where he thought it was possible that he was going to jump on it and. at the beginning of the bush presidency he became secretary

like you to see and read about death and anguish because you are black and poor or black and trans. i cannot escape the news. i am drowning in it. and those that feel like it is going underwater. heidelberg afforded a critical refuge from it all and a place i did not know the language to offer me an opportunity to be still and quiet my head and think about my country and the moment we currently find ourselves in. there we go. >> thank you so much for that the excerpt from the introduction. as you speak it out loud the feeling so may people are having just this week that it is hurting and feeling underwater why is it this book what do you back to baldwin to think about where we are right now? >> thinking about baldwin for 30 years. was hesitant in graduate school to approach him. but when i finally started reading he became one of the most important resources for the world and how i made sense and so baldwin is a scholarly resource so every epigraph of the book is last chapter is an epigraph from baldwin it is the spine of the book to engage aristotle baldwin is the screen door they

the message is dark and confusing and self-contradictory and it basically is quick to blame others and slow to accept responsibility and hesitant to accept the moral authority of the position of the president of the united states, the job in which you are trying to better the lives of fellow citizens i think we need a profound societal change and i'm not sure where it will come from but we need to treat each other better and get off of our social media and talk over backyard fences and try to remember the better america that existed. we have been speaking with ted and harold holzer. their books are the president versus the press. they are terrific books, well told, narrative history and i urge all of the readers to go out and buy them in the bookstore or online and obtain copies. thank you for being part of the national book festival and thank you for listening. ♪ ♪ ♪ welcome to the commonwealth club. chair of the humanities

blackness and social activism and all these things and kind of take a step back and say how is black man being constructed in spaces and also was something i thought was worth trying to unearth and was a also something happening. and i got some of the convention minutes and church record that there was something else taking place here, too. nicole: thank so you much. that's a really good segue to something i wanted to follow up on. i think one of the central claims you said at the beginning of your book, at the beginning of the talk has to do with the relationship between black church organizing and politics in the form of politics sense and in the sense of voting party politics, electoral politics, so you talking about being interested in investigating what you can tell about the construction of black manhood through these church records leads me into the question of those developments within churches and what's going on in formal politics where in 1867 african-american men or franchised for the first time and begin to vote and black people begin to play a totally different and more

he is saying i believe in this republic and i believe and are citizens and our taxpayers and our legalitizens and i believe that should be the process we follow. listen, i don't believe we have a president elect yet. we don't. the legal votes have not been counted and is not been certified so he should continue to fight. he does that on behalf of everyone who believes we have a system and a constitution worth defending and that is why sony people rallied behind him still to date, even though the entire establishment, as you laid out so beautifully steve, is aligned against him. he fights no matter what because we need that fight in light of what the left wants which is complete control and instruction of america. that is what we are up against but there is no harmony with people who believe that you should be shut down and that america is a bad place. that is why so many can rally behind him because they love the fighting spirit he has, whether backing our troops or making sure our ballots should count. steve: exactly right, pete. well said. thank you so much trade we will see you late

housing and job assistance and more. they are essential cores of our safety net but that safety net is fraying. calls to broward county's 211 help line quadrupled once the pandemic hit and have seen a surge ever since. with federal assistance expiring, the calls get more desperate and now the helpers are calling for help. congress must answer that call. there is nothing more important in this body right now than getting help out to our communities. the house they can senate, the white house must get that help through the covid-19 wave that is crashing across our country as we begin this holiday season. the american people are desperate, desperate, mr. speaker, we can wait no longer. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. for what purpose does the gentleman from new york seek recognition? >> i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> i rise today to honor the distinguished career of centr

musu and mr. kerska and mr. gilman. your companies have worked to create ppe manufacturing facilities here in the u.s. in response to covid-19 with the goal of creating a homegrown american product, however, not only does china dominate global ppe production. they also dominate ppe component and manufacturing equipment sectors. you have described -- some of those circumstances or at least that fact or those facts to us in your testimony. i wondered if you could go into more detail describing the challenges in finding ppe components and manufacturing equipment. mr. kerska, you mentioned the bottles that are unsourceable in the united states. i just want to hear more about the challenges that you face. i would tell you that we had numerous kansas counties, hospitals, nursing homes and others call our office and ask for help in locating ppe often when it was discovered that what was purchased was sitting in a port in california waiting to be approved by the fda which was in many instances denied based upon quality. so i al

on our great american heritage of faith and family, and freedom, and patriotism, and limited governmentdividual responsibility, or whether we will let joe biden and the democratic party surrender to the radical left, shut down our economy, topple our heritage of freedom and traditional values. and, send america on an inevitable path to socialism, and decline. so, men and women of north carolina, let me say from my heart, for everything that has always made this country exceptional and great, for the freedom that heroes through the generations have fought to defend, we need to decide right here and right now that joe biden will never be president of the united states. we are going to reelect president donald trump for four more years. [chanting four more years] it is that important. it is that real, north carolina. i appreciate you all coming out today. i want to thank you for the honor of coming in hearing me out. you know, when the president called me four years ago to join his ticket, i said yes in a heartbeat.

] and it was just, everything about it was so real, and i went and talked to his employees and every, he's a great boss, great leader and they had personal story how he had helped them. and back to minnesota and i went back there and i couldn't wait to tell minnesota 2016, tell all the media i had met this man, donald trump and all the great things we had talked about. well, i did that press release and the media called me a racist, they attacked me, they gave-- [crowd booing] >> the better business bureau took me from an a-plus to an f. but then i knew i was on the right path. god gave us grace on november 8th, 2016 and our president has a gift, a problem solution, but he also knows what it's going to manifest to. he has fought every day for our country and us to overcome, to make our lives better for each and every one of us. he's kept all of his promises that he told me, he told all of us. he has -- he created the best economy in history before this china virus, we had the lowest unemployment, he brought manufacturing back and it would take hours to list everything, out of the gat

men are more -- in nature and women are hormonal and methodic and-- and there are some for risk factorsn women than in men d the other way around. and it's funny in a way that many risk ftors affect women more than me only women not men in case of alzheimer's disease, but the number one risk factor in men is not being married to a woman. >> what? [laughter] >> why is that? >> there are so ny possibilities, from mutations and the number one for men is not being married to a woman. in that se, i mean, i don't think it's nessarily related to a woman as much as being in a supportive, healthy, nurturing relationship because these studies were done on data collected many, many years ago, and were not allowed in this country and men to were married to women, traditional marriages. women are very good at taking carf people. >> yes, we are. . [laughter] >> in lifee're charged of the health of entire family, rit? we sedule the medical appointments, making sure the husband is taking pills, and making sure the health of the family. >> i think it was really cute. >> which is aerfect segue to life st

marin county, and also, rec and park, and some promising results. it's difficult to tell what it can replace in what situation at this point, and i discussed that i'm very skeptical at this product. it's not a registered f.d.a. product, it's an exempt product, but can't argue with results, so we're hopeful on this one. >> thank you, chris. >> commissioner wald? >> thank you. i just want to make the following observation in light of the fact that this is my umpty-umpth time to vote on this list. what we're looking at here is not just data that documents how the use of pesticides has declined so very dramatically in the city and county of san francisco, but that what that reflects is something that's sort of implicit in what chris talks about, but it represents real and dramatic change in the culture of city agencies in how they think about using pesti sides and what they do to not use them. ---esticides and what they do to not use them. i think it's something that everyone, including chris geiger, should be incredibly proud of. it's great what the de

and then he pulls back into traffic and drives away and i started walking towards her and before i got there, maybe it was 100 feet, this other than pulls up next to the body, three people jump out, one points a gun at my feet and says stay back, the other to get the body and throw it in the van andthen they drive off . it's this very apparent attempt, this death squad drops this body and this second slate of the military comesalong to collect it and this happened routinely . there's something about the incident that struck me as utterly fantastic and i remember thinking how is it the american government can support another government that is murdering people in broad daylight? how has the idea become so squalid that you can do something like this . you see this is something that's going to happen and i think for me personally that was a turning point. i remember thinking of revolutions and accused the american government pulled off and that was so much for that afterwards. >> question is for both of you is would you in that time period rather be a spy or a writer? >> julian, you first

i think we -- >> and -- and -- and city hall has my resume and everything all these years. i don't know exactly what else -- i did -- am a founder of a number of organizations locally and internationally, and there is interference. i don't know if i'm talking through. >> chair ronen: can you hear me? can you hear me? is. >> i can hear you more, so i'm not getting it, and of course, i'm using my cell phone, as i was told, because of the difficulty. i think it might be -- oh, i'm getting feedback. >> chair ronen: miss woo, can you hear me? can you hear me? [inaudible]. >> chair ronen: can you hear me? you've presented enough. thank you, we really appreciate it. >> what was that? >> chair ronen: thank you for your presentation. thank you. thank you. and mr. -- oh, mr. carney, i'm sorry. are you available? >> i am. can you hear me? >> chair ronen: we can hear you perfectly. welcome. >> thank you. well good morning. i am patrick carney. thank you for your time today, and thank you to mayor breed for the reappointment. i am a licensed architect with 35 years experience and have a

and i put pictures and sort of xerox copies of the zapruder footage with yarn and thumb tacks and i had wild conspiracy theories, none of which i remember and that's quite deliberate. so the obsession and fascination got into presidential collecting and memorabilia and i have a strange subcollection of presidential locks of hair which is weird until you see it. it's quite fascinating. this really has been a passion of mine my -- trust me, really is something. this has been an interest my entire life so i spend all day thinking about innovation and the future but i had this sort of growing itch to want to dig into the past. when my wife was pregnant with a our eldest daughter who is five years e nears old i needed a nesting project because i was annoying everybody and i decided to write a book about the eight times in history that a u.s. president died in office and how history was transformed by a heartbeat. and this history, in addition to being something i'm deeply park not but, it resonates with me on so many different levels because we're in a time where everybody is look agent lead

o the parents and teachers who are afraid and confused, that fear and anxiety is real and stressful. people who are without a job and unsure of your next step, your stress is real, too. the stress of the situation can often feel too great to handle nd we take very seriously the need to ensure that all americans know that there is and there is hope. we're doing all we can to ensure healthcare tal system in our nation remains open and ready to serve. as you struggle with these great stressors especially during the oliday season, please try to stay connected to loved ones. lease reach out to friends and family, and please know that the national suicide prevention help at is available to any time. 800-273-8225. critically health is important, and we want to do all we can to protect it. thank you, mr. vice president. it's good to see all of you. doctors have well covered the serious state of the epidemiological evidence that we and they have talked about the steps that we can and should be taking, but they have also about the steps that aren't evidence-based that we now.d not be taking ri

and charges and so on. and so they use all these tactics to use all these terrorists and basically beat us down. but at the end of the day, even though we have 60 or 70 to make out what's he said is exactly right. i'm going to going to is michael. go ahead and i'm going i'm going to jump in here because i want you to hear from attorney cool johnson. that's right michael. that's what i just. yeah, i want to say that. i mean, certainly we see the effects of these, that the chilling of dissent, the criminalization of protesters without question. you know, since, you know, midway into the obama administration will say 201520168, lot of people have been paying more and more attention to these so called anti protest laws. there are some good resources out there. people are tracking them, but what percent is exactly right. you know, we see these, you know, in a sense that prosecutorial farnese are raising the bar so that there's potentially higher and higher consequences for people coming into the streets. and so

and race and preachers and pimps and there's an entire world from few square blocks that suddenly gives you a picture of all of america. and of seping history. i read books like that and that was my creative writing class. there is no ubt when i thought about writing this presidential memoir, those were my models as opposed to a traditional pridential memoir with, and that then i met with things such and such and theprime minister such and such . and how well i succeeded in tracking that kind of a more literary approach toit , it will be up to the readers but that was certainly part of what i was trying to do. of course james baldwin didn't have to stick in long explanations of the financial cris or nuclear negotiations so that was the disadvantage. every time once in a while you get in a poetic flow a you realize you know what, i got to do little history, a little work here and try to find that balance was sometimes tough . >> thank you. >> michelle is going to ask some more now. >> when we were writing this book during a period of total and transformation in america and when you're wr

is the key of my book and i think that were taught in school and even by her parents and there's a right answer, your tagging a number word like one to three or target number words under things, in fact you have to decide what belongs in the group of things are counting, say a parent puts down a bunch of oranges and apples in front of a kid and says count the apples, the kid has to know how to tell an apple from an orange in the have to pick up those roles beforehand before they can start to count. that is a simple one, i think it's easy to teach kids to tell an apple from an orange. but go to something more interesting like counting ballots in an election, somebody has to decide, that's what we really want to do is count votes for different candidates. somebody is making a decision before they count the vote, what is a valid ballot business meet the test, did you find in all the right places or whatever. somebody is deciding who even gets to cast the ballot, those classification decisions, who is in and who is out in which ballots always get made before anybody starts to tally up the nu

benefits and get them into meaningful and paying jobs and working them towards self-sufficiency and getting them off reliance on public benefits, public assistance. since 2009, we have made 27,,000 j27,000 job placements and work with many businesses. so what's important for 2020 and 2021? the budget, i believe, just god signed on the 1st. we were able to get our budget increased over last year, over $5 million going into the private sector wage subsidies. our goal this year is to place 3700 individuals into subsidized employment jobs. one of the ways that we hope to do this is we brought back a voucher program which we actually started back in 2009. so in addition to my staff working with employers such as yourselves and other entities to try and get folks placed into jobs, we're also going to be issuing vouchers to job seekers, so they can go out and become their own job developer. they'll be able to go to an employer and present that voucher, saying hey, hire me. you may be eligible for a wage subsidy. it's going to put everyone -- because it's just such a large unemployment right now, a

and his campaign now mount force me and say, yes, it's in a state all of these claims and listen to and talk to all of these people. because then you come out and are saying for transparency sake, ok, what light is of the, the campaign amount or force leave that way because they have the most to gain. i would go ahead more. well, i think they have the math on their side and so i don't think you need to follow up as, as, as my lawyer friends would sank. you got $25.00 in a can, you can file a lawsuit. and so, so far all of the things that janice, talking about there has not been evidence forward and submitted to the court. you have to have evidence for your lawsuit to move forward and we stopped out of the lawsuits that have been filed. officially i'll show you, i did 3 were rejected, rejected as having no evidence. the one that the trump campaign, when she said that there are observers which were present were a good move, a little bit closer to the people, counting the ballots. so not a result of victory and not not, not impacting the outcome. so right now, so far it's all smoke and mir
