by the time they made the phone calls to new orleans, and a member we are talking again baton rouge is an hour and a half drive. but all it there are two lane road to the march. it took four hours to get the doctor here. for the time he got here the poison and the other things and they got shot kind of set in the infection. and he would long ultimately died several hours later. who shot huey long? all sorts of speculation part i can say first-hand accounts from the bodyguard who was with him colonel, far k called him chief because he was also chief of police said i was there. it's all a bunch of -- it about bodyguard shooting him. it was one small caliber bullet. i was there and they took it out of his stomach. they put in my hand. i turned it over to the lab. i held it. i know for a fact. and rumor back then and in many of the books i have read that said huey long had done some things to the weiss family. because they were anti-long back then. that is what provoked weiss to do it he did. he was a mild mannered nice doctor who for whatever reason did what he did. and of course everyone

highway 61, between new orleans and baton rouge. it was a two, three-hour trip, easy three-hour trip. he said, we would run down that highway. he said there was a stop, i would make my phone call. huey would get something to drink. i didn't know enough to say was it alcoholic, non-alcoholic? to this day that service station restaurant is still there. it looks art deco '30s style. he said, i would stop there and make my phone call, because all we had in our car was receivers. in other words, it would receive a radio transmission. they couldn't transmit back. it was, in effect, a police radio, but it was a radio. he said, i would make my call and we would leave. we traveled in two cars. i traveled with the governor or the senator, and there was always a car in front of us. it was not uncommon you would hear plink, plink, someone shooting at us along the way. he said, remember, we were rural. we were just coming out of the throes of -- the war was over, world war i was over, huey long was a populist. they had never had anyone like him

i think a boyd enadministration with a blue senate majority was willing and able to accept that baton and go forward to me, when you see rates, the ten-year treasury reverse the way it did today in front of that fed meeting and then surging the way it did, this may be a tough slog. we may have a consumer really stretched heading into the holiday season with not a lot of help right as this virus is surging again. what do the mitigation efforts look like and what do they do to the economy? you go back into the big tech. i am key on what powell says tomorrow and if that will cause volatility in the market i don't like the way we closed here off the highs. i think we are probably ready after a low on friday, up 7% at the height this morning and just three trading days, i think we could probably come back into 3400 there is tons of uncertainty this election will be contested and that uncertainty, i don't think investors will like, especially after a sharp rally >> remember back bush v gore, it took a month i am not saying it is a completely parallel situation, but it could be a month befor

this weapon has less lethal foam baton projectiles. the fourth officer was equipped with a department-issued firearm. mr. estrada, while lying on the sidewalk and holding a knife in his right hand, retrieved the fly frying pan and attempted to stand up. the officers ordered mr. estrada several times to drop the knife and stay down on the ground. mr. estrada did not comply and attempted to stand while saying no, f-u. the first and third officers deployed the respective eriws at mr. estrada as he was rising to his feet. the less lethal projectiles were ghean ineffective as he did not drop the knife or the frying pan and succeeded in standing upright. the fourth officer deployed his firearm at mr. estrada. mr. estrada again dropped to the sidewalk but did not drop the knife. he broadcast that he was involved in a shooting and they were giving the suspect verbal commands but that mr. estrada was non-compliant. officers continued giving multiple commands to mr. estrada to drop the knife and to stay down. mr. estrada, however, did not comply

on january 20 at noontime should he be the one who will be taking the baton. >> and in fact, you folksanged the clearances so expeditiously and shared the intelligence that on inauguration day, when you were handing off, there was a terror threat, and the incoming and outgoing teams worked together in the situation room to thwart that attack. there couldn't be a clearer example of how at 12:01, joe biden becomes president of the united states, all things being considered, so far, according to the "new york times" count, checking with all 50 states, there is no deciding battleground state in which the margin is less than is being challenged, the margin of victory is greater, i should say, than any of the challenged ballots, and most of the secretaries of state are saying there is no fraud that has been found. >> i do not see a credible path to success for president trump. but i am not the expert. he has plenty of lawyers. yes, there's going to be recounts, georgia is doing one automatically because the election is so close down there. i don't believe that there are enough challenges to

seeing fewer fractures and serious bodily injuries because they were using the taser rather than a baton. stephen: the data also shows san jose pd saw use of force incidents drop 13.4% from 2015 to 2019, the time the tracking has been taking place. and some racial disparities are disappearing. five years ago, when san jose police arrested a hispanic man, there was an 11% greater chance they would use force on him than when they arrested a white man. today, that hispanic person has a 2% lower chance than a white person of seeing force used against him. eddie: we have a lot more work to do, but i think the expectation is that we are moving that needle in that, you know, that this tool absolutely helps us do that. stephen: the use of force project agrees with those numbers, but still gives san jose an f grade for its deadly use of force data, noting that in 2018, hispanics were 3.4 times more likely to have deadly force used against them than white people. is that the biggest problem right now is people just don't know and there's not enough data analytics to say what works, what's effectiv

we want the baton to be passed to someone who understands what it will be like to feel that baton and know what the responsibilities are. literally the first minute of being president of the united states. in the transition will be from donald trump to donald trump for a second term then he will be prepared. i think the path to that solution for donald trump is not viable. i don't see how it can happen. i think donald trump has lost the election. he did a remarkable job of getting people to turn out. he should celebrate that. boy did he participate in a remarkable exercise of democracy in getting record number of people to the polls and a record number of people voted for him. i do think joe biden got more votes than donald trump and i think that joe biden will end up being the next president of the united states. he already has 306 electoral college votes. i think it's time to recognize reality. president trump should not lose more credibility. he should not lose more trust. he should not lose more respect. he should recognize the reality today and help the next president be able to

this is the 1st time since the attack that sadness has returned to the baton. it's bringing back his trauma, which is still deeply affecting him. also it's stressing me out to be here. i'm quite anxious now. even nowadays when i go to the cinema or restaurant, i'm concerned about my safety and where the next emergency exit is as the 13th of november 25th teen. i thought i lived in a safe country. now i don't believe that anymore. security do music is helping to heal his wounds. but for sadness, it's also an affirmation of life form. there was a radical islamists would like to see a society in which we can draw make music, sing they believe that only the prophet has the right to do that. so this is a way of saying, no, i exist, i'm alive. and i want to continue doing what i'm free to do in my country but with a spate of recent terror attacks and measures to combat the corona pandemic pressure on those freedoms is mounting the oval. let's have a closer look at this phenomenon with nothing else have made. here's a cognitive scientist who's researched the roots of

april dunn of baton rouge, louisiana, was a drin advocate denied a higscholoma ofties. her own, april helped state lawmakers pass a bill that allowed students with disabilities to receive their degrees, and went on to work closely with the governor. kind, outgoing, sociable, april was a great source of pride for her family. she was just 33. sean boynes, once a captain in the u.s. air force, was a pharmacist dedicatedo serving his maryland clients. sean received three degrees from howard university, where he played football, mentored pharmacy students, and married his bride, nicole, on campus. funny and joyful, it was sean's smile that caught nicole's heart. for sierra and gabrielle, their father was their comforter and cheerleader. was 46 years old. vincent lionti, a violist with the new york metropolitan opera for 33 yearswas known for his quiet confidence, humility and kindness. vincent's first teacher was his father, victor, who conducted the westchester youth symphony orchestra, before passing the baton vincent in 1997. vincent met s wife, kristin, in the met cafete

what would the baton passing look like if there was communication like that? >> well, first of all, you can talk about things like what is the level of supply that is available? what is the utilization of ppes? what about the hospital beds that the various members of the current coronavirus task force are in communication with the health groups in different states getting interaction at a formal level with the governors? understanding every detail of the vaccine program. not only the two vaccines that have fortunately been shown to be very effective but where are we in operation warp speed with regard to the other candidates which are coming into their own in the sense of clinical trial, accumulating data. all of those things can be done in partnership. >> that sounds to me as things that would make a difference. >> of course they would. i could recall in the transition that we had from the obama administration to the trump administration that then chief of staff denis mcdonough worked with reins priebus and talked about how we handled ebola and zika to give t

is really important in a smooth handing over of the information as well as almost like passing the baton in a race. you don't want to stop pnd and then give it to somebody, you want to just keep going. and that is what transition is. so certainly would make things more smoothly. >> and then look, we are in the midst of a coronavirus surge. only expected to get worse. what do you make of that? >> well, the failure to pass over the baton in the transition process would be abhor rently irresponsibility and it is actually malpractice. they need to start thinking about mass manufacture and mass distribute this vaccine. that is not happening. there are secret service protections that joe biden is not getting because the gsa cannot release transitional funds. that is not happening. so there are real ramifications. you could even make the afrgt that this country was more septemb succesceptible to 9/11 because were close to the transition. and a transition lasts almost 18 months into a new presidency. so leaving -- losing this period, even this six, eight weeks is crucial and it just shows that d

think about all that has to be done to move forward with vaccines and the economy and that is a baton handoff that is fundamental to all of us and requires a large number of people to be well coordinated on the biden team and up to speed and that takes time. that is really what we are talking about here, ensuring that the biden team is given access not just to daily briefs, but to people working on these problems now, the information they need, and to the processing parts of our government that will enable -- enable their team to step in right away. host: we are talking about the process of the presidential transition, our guest is the president and ceo for the partnership for public service. your calls are welcome, (202) 748-8000. .epublicans, (202) 748-8001 independents and others, (202) 748-8002. you mentioned the delay in the 2000 handoff. we so far have yet to have president trump concede or recognize joe biden as the winner of the 2020 election. is there any other historical similarity or similar sort of setting where there was a delay like this caused by one candidate refusing
