i think it was baltimore new york, other places. do you notice that the, the, the cow, the character or the, the type of law enforcement, african american wide hispanic law enforcement. you know, there's, if there's ever a place where it may make it sound like america's burning over raise our cities or police by lots of african americans and others. look, here's what we know. george soros funded efforts in the last 5 years to destroy our prosecutorial system. that's not against the law, except i happen to think that he's not, we shouldn't be an american citizen. we could do another show on that. but you know, we know that's what's happened. so we have, as you point out, prosecutors who get into office like in my home city in st. louis and the prosecutor says, i won't let these cops testify there on a no test the by list or, you know, we weren't, we're work with them now. we have cops, of course, last summer there was quote unquote, protests in most major cities. by the way, i don't think anything was actually resolved, but there is

now it's like baltimore it's like a warehouse area. got a union election there. if you could see where houses start to organize, that we pretty extraordinary. that will go some ways towards improving conditions come proving this kind of work pretty set us on the historical arc that was sought last century. those steel jobs are very low paid those workers are badly traded until they got the unions and in the 30s, 40s, and 50s. that made a big difference. we start to see that happen now in the warehouse realm be a very big deal. the elections can happen freely and fairly. the fact president biden spoke out as he did a week or two ago on that point was a very big deal. the other area where the government has a much bigger role to play as an antitrust. one big reason for this regional inequality is that fulfillment is about is economic concentration. to put it very bluntly one reason you have this huge gap between cities and towns is that business and commerce that used to be kind of dispersed all around the country, and various sectors is not sucked, who heard and d

here to react baltimore city council president candidate patterson and mother and grandmother of baltimore candidate yolanda palmer. these numbers, i can't come up with a super litter for them, they are astounding. you can see 24% in the second quarter of the prior school year, at one.0 or below, 41% for the first 3 quarters of the current school year. covid didn't help matters but where's the accountability to school leaders here? >> thank you for having me on this morning. baltimore has the best institutions, financial, health, but who is sitting those opportunities up for our kids? when it comes to accountability there is none because our appointed system, our appointed school board system leaves our parents in the dark. there is no way to get these people out, these people should be fired because they are failing our kids. >> you are a mother and grandmother to students in the system. how bad is it from your perspective? >> it is pretty bad. i definitely agree that there is no accountability. i feel like the mayor should fire the current ceo because of the disappointment in city school

that coming from baltimore mayor brandon scott.tt, and thank you. >> good morning. thanks for having me. >> 151%. as you sit here as mayor, knowing it didn't have to be this way, what is your next step for the city of baltimore? >> well, i think it's to continue our efforts. for those who are unvaccinated in baltimore or otherwise, if you're looking for a sign to talk to your doctor, delta is that sign. if you're unvaccinated. i implore you to take the steps to get the questions you need answered now before it's too late. contracting the disease itself is far worse than a temporary side effect. you don't want to be on that hospital bed as some covid patients have saying, can i still get the vaccine. don't wait until it's that late. we're going to continue, as we have been, going directly into our zip codes that have the lowest vaccination rate, using our credible messenger, our partners, taking our mobile vaccinations to those communities so we're having an impact where we're most needed. this is about keeping people alive. we also

the republicans fight in baltimore we had great young representative who was fantastic. african-american woman. she didn't make it didn't quite make it but she is fantastic. it's almost like a habit you put a democrat in. lawrence: you won some democrat states, democrat cities. >> i did. lawrence: because you went in there and did the work. >> correct. lawrence: what were you able to do they're not able to do. >> we did very well with the hispanic and african-american vote. records, we did records with these votes. i was able to convince them that what they have been doing in the past was wrong. i got criminal justice reform approve. that was a big thing, lawrence. obama couldn't get it done. i'm not sure he tried that hard frankly. he couldn't get it done. we got criminal justice reform done. that broke the ice to a certain extent. and we were able to get tremendous votes. also, the minority, every minority group, they want law and order. they want police. they don't want to be accosted. they don't want to be shot. and that's what's happening. and we can't let it happen

who spent more than 30 years working at a huge steal mill outside of baltimore, sparrows point. at one time was the largest steal mill in the 1950's. a company town, living in this company town and that was wiped completely away and released by a logistics park, a whole bunch of warehouses and i found a gentleman who work 30 years at the steal mill, incredibly dangerous work and loved it because it had purpose and a sense of community and fellowship and camaraderie. and he then after the steel mill closed, he went to work at amazon warehouse there, making less than half of what he said at the steel mill. the work was not as dangerous of course, but isolating and alienating and he couldn't hack it. it was so utterly kind of-- he felt alone, completely alone on the job and none of that fellowship that he had at the steel mill and he finally quite after just a few years. the-- i was talking recently to another former steal worker from the mill who lives nearby and commented on the fact that the workers at the warehouse when they're leaving their shifts go screaming out of the wareh

can you take us back to 1950s baltimore because you paint a picture you bring this period the baltimore orioles and i think that is where she learned the benefits of being operational. i would love to hear about baltimore 1950s and as well the way that they used politics to operate to get things done, to create benefits for constituents. take us back to that part. >> definitely a larger than life figure. when he was 13-years-old never went back and after he was a member of congress invited them back to the courtyard as an honorary diploma graduating from elementary school. he was so enamored that he named his first son thomas after himself and second son franklin and eleanor roosevelt so these were new deal politicians, people who believed in an extensive government and in some ways a corrupt government as we might look at it today a city government that was known for patronage for one political boss who wanted to play and aid in a city job and the mayor said what can he do and the political boss said you can't really do much of anything and he said basically we have a blank slate but n

i have to be clear, this isn't unique to baltimore.ce and put citizens in harm's way. i'm glad to see that the baltimore city police commissioner has reached out and asking for federal resources but this is exactly what was on my platform when i ran for congress this past year. you know, we can ask for federal reviewers. rachel: these policies aren't popular with black people. went through poll numbers. new york city 70% of black democrats want more cops in new york city. 90% of detroit residents want more cops. this idea if you remember, kimberly was started way back when aoc was saying defund ice and then after george floyd it took steam with just defund the police in general. brian: reimagining police which was yusm for defunding police. now they are saying it out loud defund the police. now this is happening. 500 officer vacancies within the baltimore police department. because people are demoralizing who would want to be a cop, right? >> absolutely. why are we vilifying people that put their lives on the line for people that they

>> i think a baltimore it's necessary, and baltimore like major cities around the country you have lost of good police officers, they left the department drugs so you need the federal authorities to common and help. but what is going on and what is necessary is police community of policing and that's where police officers get out of their damn automobiles, they go into the community, some live in these communities and at the same time they've established a report with the members of those communities so those law-abiding citizens within the community can tell law enforcement, you have joe joe next door and jojo is a thug, go get him and this is what you need you need that intelligence from law-abiding citizens but they are scared because they know if they tell on these crooks, by the time the creek is locked up and before the paperwork is finished that kirk is back on that neighborhood that is another demoralizing situation. eric: finally, do you think that cycle can finally be broken? and especially so heartbreaking and tragic. because it affects minority communities. >> when you have

the main portion of the book is my experience leading baltimore's health department and the programswe led that opened visitation programs and partnershi, we werable to reduce benefit mortality by 38% and close the gap between black and white benefit mortality by over 50%. i saw growing up as an immigrant about how people don't have access to care and how we do not treat healthcare as a fundamental human right as it really is. was 10 yrs old when a neighbor child, a neighbor i knew well, he had a severe asthma attack and his grandmother was too afraid to call for help because the family was undocumented and she was afraid that their family would be deported. as aevt -- as a result, this boy died in front of me from asthma attack. this is something that is happening right now because we as a country do not have a system where we value lives the same way and where we are not prioritizing our children. throughout my career working in public health, i have seen what the needare when it comes to understanding that housing is also a health issue. that the food that we and air that we breat

because as we might remember, it was john hopkins in baltimore just out of washington, which delivered all these crucial information in the beginning. all these figures, all these data scientists needed, but also politicians needed to really come to the right conclusions and, and find a way to deal with the pandemic. but just to give you a little bit of a perspective right outside the white house here, there are protests protesting against angular medical because she is not supporting the patient weaver, which would be, which would enable countries all around the world to produce their own vaccination . so this is something where there is a huge disagreement in the united states with angle america. and this might come up later in the press conference and such a great segue in s. a. thank you so much for that because i was going to put that question to you, william, which, you know, it's just alluded to because there was this moment during her speech where we both kind of held her breath. if you're going to announce of removing the patients for the vaccines, right. i, i guess we're hopi

"the baltimore sun" reports a suspected gunman was killed after he shot and wounded two baltimore officersthe parking lot of a mall. the incident happened yesterday as the officers, part of the u.s. marshals task force, were attempting to arrest justin powell. the 32-year-old was wanted for his involvement in a june homicide. a suspect shot at officers who returned fire, killing him. both officers sustained non-life-threatening injuries and are expected to be okay. >>> the "los angeles times" says officials waited hours before notifying the public that raw sewage spilled into the ocean off l.a. beaches. 17 million gallons of unfiltered sewage flooded the shore from one of the city's largest treatment plants after a power outage on sunday. officials said the issue was resolved early monday morning. the incident has prompted beaches to close to the public this week. >> our poor beaches. we've never seen the beach this dirty. i'm going to be honest. we rode our bikes yesterday, and there's a lot of garbage on the beach and now the sewage. it's sad. >> beaches will be reopened after water qual

that call to preserve mount misery as a monument to the hell that happened there, the reason the baltimore sun published that just less than 15 years ago now was this revelation that was published in "the new york times" exactly 15 years ago today. on june 30th, 2006, it's titles weekends with the president's men. it is kind of a kicky sidebar piece in "the new york times" that was published in the summer of 2006. and that piece revealed that that site on the eastern shore of maryland, mount misery, that house, that farm had actually been recently purchased and was now being lived in as a private home. can you imagine, right? first of all, the house is still called mount misery today. that's still the name by which it is known. who would want to live in a place called mount misery? but then you get to the reason that it's called mount misery, right? it was the home, the same building standing there since 1804. frederick douglas was tortured there in 1833 and 1834. whether or not you think that place should be purchased by this country and made into a memorial for the worst most violent evi

she joins us now on skype, from baltimore, maryland, san ramon, welcome throughout his era. give us a sense of what the medical slash cove it picture is in me in law right now. thanks for having me peter. the medical picture is very bleak. currently there is a lot of panic within society. and while the military junta is accusing a lot of civilians for hoarding oxygen and met shortage and inciting, more panic, we have to come to terms with the fact that this panic in this environment was sold by the military. and if you have a ramification of the mistrust that they established over the last few months since the qu, other, any supplies, as you're talking to us, we're watching people unloading canisters of oxygen. are there any supplies getting into the country? and if there are, can the people feel that they can trust the people they're going to to get those supplies of oxygen? because if you're breaking the curfew and risking the rest because you don't want to suffocate to death, literally because that's in effect what, what cobra does to the, the lungs. if you're taking that

you can go to baltimore which has been a bright spot amidst this.arry, we've seen this rise in interpersonal violence. we've seen other index crimes that have not gone up. we've seen interpersonal violence, particularly shootings and homicides across the 50 biggest cities. there's this sort of fascinating consistency in terms of the data we have in 2020 to 2019, which is big and small, places with different policies, different policing policies. how are you thinking about what we've seen in the last year, what we're seeing in the first six months of this year? >> well, chris, you know the problem i think is that we're all experiencing sort of whiplash. i mean, a year ago -- a year and six weeks ago, george floyd is killed and protests begin and everybody's talking about police reform. and now homicides are shooting up and everybody's talking about getting tough on crime again. so, it's very hard for folks to know what we should do. but i think the answer, as amber says, we have a lot of answers. we have answers about what works and treating gun viol

and, you know, baltimore is on, i think, a good path.pretty well. washington d.c. the police department, when i first came here, had a significant sort of gap between police and community. that has been substantially closed by successive police chiefs and waves of new officers. and with a more community based approach to policing, it can work. >>> now to this, iconic hollywood film director and producer richard donner died at the age of 91. his career of film and television spanned six decades, including some of the biggest movies of the '70s and '80s, including "lethal weapon," "superman" and the "goonies". get in here! okay. no [bleep]. you want to kill yourself. >> oh for -- >> shut up, yes or no you want to die? >> i got the job done, what do you want? >> you didn't answer the question. >> what do you want to hear, man? do you want to hear that sometimes i think about eating a bullet? well, i do. >> mikey, mikey, come on, our parents are worried, it's dinner time, why don't we go home. >> home? what home? in a couple more hours it ai

baltimore had adopted a newer and more complex learning platform. now students were being asked to attend classes both online and in-person based on classroom size and professors discretion. i applaud, still, the way baltimore handled this new way of education. all students were given public tests before returning to campus, and masks for the entire semester. they also conducted many randomized tend assisting, testing students for the coronavirus and also offered vaccines. all of these measures turned out to work without a surplus number of positive cases on campus. the access to federal funding was going out organization like college now, that are helping students, and it continued to help students -- that the -- as the world continues to evolve. i continue that the world of higher education would benefit from a doubling of the pell grant and the continued support of covid relief funds. i thank you all for your time and attention, and for listening to my long story. and it has been an absolute honor, thank you. >> thank you very much, mister harris

leana wen, cnn medical analyst and former baltimore health commissioner.author of "lifelines: a doctor's journey in the fight for public health." which was just released today. also with us dr. jerome adams former surgeon general of the united states. dr. adams, you've been calling on the fda to fully approve the pfizer and moderna vaccine so companies will feel more legally confident mandating the vaccine. as kaitlan noted president biden isn't waiting, he's going to announce a vaccine requirement for federal employees and contractors. does the federal government requiring vaccination send the message to other companies to go ahead and do the same even without a full fda approval? >> well, it absolutely does. and i've always contended that the workplace is the best mechanism to get people vaccinated. you look at the nfl. 14 teams with 90 percent-plus vaccination rates. you look at hospitals. and now you've got president biden saying if you work for the federal government i'm going to use my status as your employer to make sure you're doing everything poss

rigid century and then look at gifford's picture of himself as a century at fort federal hill in baltimore with the same stacked cannonballs and the same kind of rigid geometry. there's this wonderful synergy between the two of them the other one. i really love for synergy is the bivouac at arlington heights. this is roughly where the pentagon is right now. this is at the base of arlington house, which of course is the custis lee mansion, it's robert e. lee's family's house until the union army will take possession of it. well about 24 hour maybe 12 hours after virginia. lincoln goes not in my backyard since federal troops over the long bridge, which is now the 14th street bridge and over what will become memorial bridge and basically they occupy arlington county which is why i live in arlington. we don't have a whole lot of exciting things that happen in arlington during the four years of the war because we're basically a giant parade ground and they're busy building the perimeter forts like cf smith and fort runyan. so here you've got the soldiers. it's like sing around the campfire. the

this is the that the union troops outside baltimore get the news that george meade has held the union line the battle of gettysburg has gone to the union and in the very background you will see lee's retreating army headed for harpers ferry as fast as they can get there that notion of relief that notion of a turn in the weather and a turn in the events of the war is supported by the oil sketch that gifford did in the field of that which is dated july 9th 1863 the day that they got the news about the battle. one of the key themes of course for any exhibition on the civil war are the twin issues of abolition and emancipation and we are fortunate that both winslow homer and eastman johnson came of age when they did because between the two of them they make issues around emancipation and abolition issues around human rights and american freedom on a general non-race specific level eastman johnson paints. this picture called negro life in the south in the spring of 1859 before the war starts. he said a falling out with his dad who is a northern democrat from maine. he is on his second marr

the response from the baltimore sun was this is too heavy. humanize her more. what do you mean? it seems so sad. i'm thinking it is sad. can't you write about her dancing? or wearing makeup or something to humanize her? is that i don't want to do that because it's important ethical issue i don't want to dilute that. and then they also asked me pointed questions to me they were very pointed and with the cultural divide so there is a moment in baltimore that had gone through several name changes african-americans refer to itnu as monument mall i guess official name was mont damon so i refer to it as the african-american name they were adamant i should change it and they said i talked to the family they didn't even know that was the official name of the mall most people know about as monument mall so most african-americans thought of it by that name. so i realize there was a cultural friction and disconnect and it would not be bridged. i would not writete about her eudancing. or wearing makeup because that would delete what happened. but i would not impose the wrong name of the mal

w reported julia sound dally is on the ground for us in the town of baltimore time in line it rhineland pallets. net will get a live update in a moment. first, this report another mock of these devastating floods. a landslide collapses houses into the mud evacuated residence had already started to return home. now many a few dead. in other towns, the cleanup effort has already started invalid for time. residents peak through what's left of the home. they say they had almost no time to react before raging flood waters hit the town of miles. and all of a sudden the water breach the damn. all the houses here are the same height. so when the water came up from the salad lightning speed, we all jumped in our cars and drove up the mountain out of pocket. on this, often back on the farm, we had to get ourselves to safety. hundreds of thousands of houses without power of clean water. the internet has been cut and phone reception is down. volunteers have come from nearby areas, bringing whatever equipment they have to help clear roads and houses. yeah, i've been younger come when i arrived here.

i wanted to write more about it and i was approached by the "baltimore sun." i wrote the piece and i was focused on the things i thought were most important to me and readers. i focused on the ethics of appropriating these tissues and the failure to acknowledge the important role of this african-american woman in medicine and of the distribution and things like that. d i simply don't want to dilute that and they also asked me some pointed questions at least to me they were pointed and showed a cultural divide. in baltimore they've had several name changes and the african african-americans refer to as monument hall and the official name was something like that so i refer to it by the name that i should change it but then i began to realize most thought of it by that name there's a cultural disconnect and it wasn't going to be bridged. i wasn't going to write about her dancing and wearing makeup because i thought that would diluteng the import of what uthappened and i wasn't going to impose. i would have been happy with both names but i wasn't going to impose th
