but by 2014, bob's health is in steep decline.agnosed with advanced emphysema and confined to quarters -- with his troops. >> how important were "the guys" at the end? >> very important. he would sit in that room seven days a week, surrounded by his soldiers. that made him happy. >> maybe so, but bob doesn't want his wife to have to figure out what to do with them once he's gone. did he tell you what to do? >> he did not want to leave me with the soldiers. >> bob wanted to sell off the collection so carole wouldn't have to deal with it. >> meet the man bob drafts to decommission his army. >> when i first walked into this room, i was just kind of in awe. 'cause there's some die-hard collectors that would really just die to have some of these sets. >> that's next. >> but first, our "strange inheritance" quiz question. the answer after the break. there are times when our need to connect really matters. to keep customers and employees in the know. to keep business moving. comcast business is prepared for times like these. powered by t

great to see bob and doug in orbit. we have the astronauts, we have mission control, and we think of ourselves as the spacecraft experts for human spaceflight. so it was great to see this executed so well. we look forward to a great continuation of the mission. >> next, we will hear from the deputy director of the commercial crew program. >> good afternoon. it's a very exciting day to be here for commercial crew. the launch yesterday was phenomenal and today, to dock to andspace station, the u.s. the program have been working on this for many years. i can't tell you how may people cross nasa and the whole country putting in tireless hours, missing time with their family, hard work to make the day happen, but we are thrilled. before 9:30ened this morning. what has been happening since march is a series of rendezvous burns to get into this approach face today. today went really well. we are learning about the vehicle, how to manage it and watching the life-support system. it is certainly different from demo one. those lif

hello, chris, doug and bob. for doug and bob i wonder if during the ascent or during your overnight time was there a point for that sense of history received in where you allowed yourself to consider the history that you were making and what were those specific moments, thanks. >> honestly, robert, good to talk with you. i don't know if we ever reflected on it over the 19 our rendezvous. i mean, i think you may have a random thoughts going through your head every now and again but both bob and i are over the last five years been pretty focused on this mission and flying this mission and i think that that is really what we put our entire effort mentally and physically into from the time we walked out of the onc building until we docked with the space station and we are still doing it but you know, it was focusing on everything we could do to make sure we did what we needed to do to make it a successful accent, rendezvous and docking. also, we tried to take in all the things that the falcon nine and the dragon sho

andlly, as glad to have bob doug on board. chris cassidy was lonely being the only person who is among the u.s. having two friends up there, we will do our best to keep the three of them busy. the commercial crew program and the space x team, learning as much can about the dragon. and as others have stated, this is a test flight. the's really important is next mission of the dragon, which is the crew one mission, which is set up to be a long-duration flight. wewant to learn as much as can, as quick as we can about this vehicle. and doug busy doing work on that dragon and on the space station. when the time is right, get them back home safely and start looking towards getting the crew one mission on board. we are looking forward to the next few weeks, couple of months . it is off to a great start. from thee will hear nasa astronaut. >> thank you. what an incredible privilege to be a part of this phenomenal team, this space x partnership. and to be a part of this historic 24 hours. to see the vehicle dock with the international

what are the solutions, bob?the solutions. >> the solutions, the solutions have to to occur from within. if you say that 70% of the families raising children that are dropping out of school, it can be with 30% or not. what the woodson center does, we go into those low income communities x we find out what is happening among the 30%, assist them. they are the social entrepreneur, the healing agent is thes. -- agents. we have examples of when you invest in those entrepreneurs, you invest in these neighborhood if leaders, you can create eye lancz of excellence. islands of excellence. it's demonstrated when you take old values and place them, a new vision and involve the people, you can transform an entire community from the inside out as a hedge against gentrification. and so there are models, but we must invest not in those who are -- black lives matter is taking up $100 million in the name of helping low income people. if a fraction of that were invested in institutions welcomn their communities, we have groups li

go ahead, bob. bob: go ahead, lou. lou: is it going too far to say that the black community, the poorest among them in our inner cities are being exploited by the democratic activists for purposes that don't include their own safety and welfare? bob: it is coming at the expense. it's like people being paid to solve a problem that they helped create. one of the things that was the strength of the black man, when slavery ended in 1865 there was a study done by scholars that documented that 75% of those slaves on the plantations, had a man and a woman raising children and that solid black family continued for another 100 years through virulent racism and discrimination and up until 1965, 85% of all black families had a man and woman raising children. in the 10 years of the depression, from 1930 to 1940, black americans had a higher marriage rate than any other group in the nation. elderly people could walk safely without fear of being mugged by their grandchildren. that's because of the christian values and nuclear family

this is for bob and doug. what were some of the first things you wanted to see or do after you arrived? has it changed much since you were last there or does it feel like a second home to you? thanks. i don't want to speak for doug, but one of the things i was most excited about was being able to make a phone call home. it is been a long time since i launched into orbit and i have a little boy who got a chance to watch me do that for the first time. i just wanted to understand what his experience was as sure that with him while it was fresh in his mind. he was able to make the trip back to houston after watching the docking from florida and was pretty excited about the whole thing. that was wonderful for me. as far as the space station goes, it seems a lot like it did when i was here last. there is quite a bit more science going on, quite a bit more equipment especially on the gym side, but the overall structure and layout is very similar. we did comment yesterday about the airlock configuration. it is not as

[laughter] bob michele, when do i get a real yield back? bob: i know. it just seems to have been another one of these casualties of the crisis. i guess we will know things are further returning to normal when it comes back because by then, all the value will have been squeezed out of the bond market. jonathan: you sound like you've become more constructive in the last couple of weeks. can you walk us through whether you have, and why? bob: for sure, we have. when you look at the over woman response by policymakers, both monetary and on the fiscal side, it has been dramatic. it has not just been a handful of developed markets. it has been in the emerging markets. in the last couple of days, you had rate cuts out of indonesia, a rate cut out of brazil. you had a rate cut out of russia. i look at where brazil central bank rates are. they are 2.25%. that is where the u.s. was a year ago. so the policymakers have no interest in watching the pandemic continue to shut down the global economy. they are doing everything they can. jonathan: is this a case of ther

robert: that include the president's -- >> bob -- robert: do you want to jump in, abby?ust quickly. right.k that -- that's exactly and what we've also seen in this past week, fueled by these protests, actually, that have i been othe streets, is voter registration is up. people a votg in really high numbers, historic numbers for some of these primaries. that's a trend that i expect to see coming november. and it's one of the reasons that the president himself is extremely nervous. he thinks that all of these people voting by mail are a thre to him. this is a battlefield that republicans could be competitive in. but because the president is so opposed to vote by mail, they are putting themselves at a disadvanta g. i think itng to be a huge factor as we go forward. ere is a lot of energy in the democratic base that is being harnessed not just by restration but by people having more means to vote. and that's something at could benefit top and bottom of the ticket comeovember. robert: jonathan, house democrats passed sweeping cing legislation on thursday. but the whole thing

he was a salesmen named bob mays., he was completely shaken, and he says, "i don't know if this is some kind of a prank. i don't know what they're doing this for," but the last thing he imagined was that it was true. he could not imagine that kimberly mays was not actually his daughter. so the fbi came to him and said, "will you take a lie detector test?" and he says, "i'll take any kind of a test, this is my baby." and so he took a lie detector test and he passed it with flying colors. >> mays' position is, he doesn't care who the biological parents are. >> i'm herer i always have been, and i always will be. >> any chance in your mind that this might not be your natural daughter? >> i don't believe that, charlie, no. >> so the twiggs file the position in court, asking that genetic testing be required to determine whether kimberly is their daughter. >> they want to get to know her, have a relationship with her. >> first they come in and want a blood typing. then they want dna. as each thing goes, you're slowly allowin

bob woodson founder president of the woodson center and originator of the project we have bob on here if two months ago. he was a civil rights activist and he's committed and spent his entire life in these communities that peoplewo talk about that they've never been to particularly in the media. bob, woodson you see what's happening in our country, cities ab states, i want to put it to you this t way, this is a civil rights movement. what kind of civil rights movement is this when you're burning down your own cities and you don't even have a precise message? i don't see any leaders i see anarchy mayhem, i see a media that's very excited about it. i see a democrat party that's run these cities for decades one party rule it see a national democrat party that won't condemn the violence in a full throated aggressive way. what do you make of this? >> certainly what they're doing is a perversion of the civil rights movement, and but it's a continuation, mark, of a martha started 50 years ago with the passage of the civil rights bill. the great expectation at that time was that the problem o

lou: joining us now is bob woodson, welcome bob a former cl rights activist, he headed the national urbancriminal justice. he is the founder of the woodson center which helps residents of low income neighborhoods. bob, it's great to have you back with us, good to see you -- >> [inaudible] lou: -- and this movement if around the country, great to have you, this movement by these mobs to tear down statues, it is just befuddling. what is driving this, in your judgment, as best you can judge? >> well, the pretext of all of this, of course, was pursuing social justice and challenging institutional racism, and they used george floyd as a symbol of that. they're always trolling for other george floyds. the head of black lives matter went to houston when a 7-year-old girl was killed and raised $1 is 00,000 -- 100,000 reward money with anticipating that the villain expect person who kill her was white, only to discover that the murderer was black. and so then it's not a story after that. so they're always trolling for new symbols of their protests. but this is not about social justice. and, again,

>> bob, i actually do think thatmp there is someus to try to get this done. as abby was saying.e but i think challenges at the end of the day, they have to come up with a bill that presidt trump would sign. and i don't think democrats have anyth fait president trump would ever sign anything on racial justice tha they could actually stomach. and if they did pass something th he was willing to sign, it would actually end up looking bad for them. it seems as though the bet is being made that the momtentum o s will continue. they will be able to pass something in a more -- in a friendlier political atmosphere rtnext year. ro that is it for this week. the time flies. thank you ry much to our reporters, abby phillip, kasie nt, dan balz, an jonathan lemire, really appreciate your time on a friday night. a lot nk fun. and tou all for joining us. we will keep taking you as close to the news as we can. make sure to check out on the extra, our social media and website will have a discussion about the attorney general e who's under fnd what it all means for d.o.j. i'mobert costa. good night

bob fled immediately. charles stuck around for a minute or two trying to convince them that the pistol had gone off accidentally but eventually turned and ran as well. interestingly, the picture in the middle shows bob and jesse together. last october a woman came forward and set her grandmother had a family picture they were handing down, and she claims that this is the real picture. somebody from the houston police department who does facial recognition analyze a -- recognition analysis confirm this is a legitimate photo. a couple james brothers historians do not like the idea of jesse and bob being in a picture together and they are claiming fraud. there has been uproar over whether or not this is a real picture, going on right now. that is kind of interesting. murdered jesse james, the ford brothers expected to be treated as heroes but instead they got public abuse because it seemed like a cowardly way to kill jesse james. they killed him for two reasons. the first was a $10,000 reward. the second was

welcome to bob and doug. the whole world saw this mission and we are so, so proud of everything you have done for our country and in fact to inspire the world. >> we appreciate that, sir. it has been our honor to be just a small part of this. we have to give credit to spacex, the commercial crew program, and of course nasa. it is great to get the united states back in the crewed launch business and we are glad to be in this magnificent complex. >> we have some vips here and i am sure they have some questions to ask you, but i have one of my own before i turn over. i want to find out if you guys got any sleep on your way up there in the last 19 hours. did you guys get any sleep? >> a lot of folks in hawthorne were asking the same question, sir. we did get probably a good seven hours or so opportunity for sleep. i did sleep and doug did as well. the first night is always a challenge, but the dragon is a slick vehicle and we had good airflow. just excited to be back in low-earth orbit again. >> amazing. one of t

bob davis is with us this evening, senior editor at "the wall street journal.", important book "superpower showdown: how the battle between trump and xi threatens a new cold war." it is now available everywhere. we recommend it to you highly. lingling, i'm going to begin with you, if i may. >> sure. lou: this book focuses on the trump administration and an entirely new way of doing business by an american president. your thoughts about the great disrupter and this president who had the foresight to take on china. >> sure. very glad to be here, lou. thank you so much. yes, absolutely. president trump really broke with a lot of tradition. his trade offensive against china was up precedented -- unprecedented and, you know, initially caught the authority it is in china off guard many times. so, yeah. it's a wake-up call also to the chinese government that, you know, the past relationship with the u.s., a kind of engagement washington a had with beijing for many years now coming to end. lou: and that, that requires a next phase, bob. is that phase without question a

bob nardelli wants in, go ahead, bob. >> first of all, thanks for your service.hdad. you processed over 100 terrorists over there. so i was really pleased to hear the specifics of what you're recommending as opposed to just the generic things. so we know that speed, less talk and more action is going to be critical and give us a projection, how fast will congress be able to respond to this situation, the crisis that we're in, so that we do have proof positive evidence that we're listening and we're responding. >> well, bob, thanks for the question. you know, i think we're going to see quick action here. we already have tim scott working on a republican version of this bill in the senate and we have pete stauber, a former police officer, in the house that's leading an alternative to the democrat proposal. we're being told the judiciary committee is going to be in next week to do a mark-up where we actually move legislation out of committee and then we're going told we're coming in early, which will be later this month, to actually move whatever product comes out o

bob woodson, you see what's happening to our country come you see what's happening in these cities and states, i want to put it to you this way , this is a civil rights movement. what kind of civil rights movement is this when you're burning down your own cities and you don't even have a precise message, i don't see any leader leaders, i see anarchy and mayhem, i see media that's very excited about it, democrat party that has run these cities for decade and a national democrat party that won't condemn the violence in a full throated and aggressive way. what do you make of this. >> certainly, what they're doing is a perversion of the civil rights movement, and, but it's a continuation mark of a march that started 50 years ago with the civil rights bill, the great expectation at this time was that the problem of the inner cities and poor blacks was that there was whites running those systems and so the great promise was if you just all elect blacks to those offices, then their inequities would improve, and what we have done over the last 50 years, we've spent about $22 trillion in govern

so bob, thank you in particular for your diligence. and also thank you one treasure island who has been coordinating with the san francisco food bank for the delivery of free groceries for people who need it. thank you to the staff and thank you to the san francisco food bank and also, thank you to the school district for continuing to deliver meals to school children on treasure island so they can eat three meals a day, five days a week and they are serving about 180 children. so there are many whom we have to thank and certainly fort mel workers who are on the frontline, those who are leaving their homes everyday to work so we can have food deliveries and caregiving and let's not forget to be thankful for simple acts of kindness by our neighbors to each other. and this is the first public meeting since the city asked we shelter at home. because of this, please be patient with us and with the technology as we have to work out the glitches and get accustomed to having meetings online. and if you have public comments, there will be a wa

thanks, bob. >>> our fire danger continues for you. meteorologist kari hall has been monitoring those conditions outside for us. there was a high fire danger yesterday. what about today? >> today still a fire danger, but we don't have the wind and the fire danger exists because we have such critically dry vegetation across the bay area. i was looking at this shot, krager, not too far from bob is in clayton and you can see the burn scar in the distance. we have a new brush fire starting to spark up there and this is something that bob maybe has to watch as he's out in that area as we go into the next several minutes, so all of these issues, because of the warm temperatures, low humidity and all you need is a light breeze. we're already starting to see those temperatures warming up here, with some spots inland already in the low to mid 80s, and it's going to be another hot day as we get ready for some highs in the low 90s here. we'll see this heat return for the weekend. we'll talk about that for the fourth of july, that's coming up in t

bob: good morning, tom. it depends upon your time horizon. , we have entered a new regime, but we haven't done this before in the united states. we have done it in other countries. i would argue we have crossed the rubicon with respect to cooperation,netary and there is no way to go back. the fed has essentially surrendered its balance sheet to treasury and will continue to do so in order to do its part to help underwrite a recovery of economic activity to full employment and the targeted inflation regime. but we have seen this before in the post world war period, in the decade-long explicit yield curve control where the fed effectively surrendered its balance sheet. i think that is the regime we are in for the foreseeable future. jonathan: what you just said is so powerful, and you said it so dip a medically. y are very able. i am just trying to understand whether they formalize the effort not necessarily today, but in the coming meetings. expecting?u expect-bob: i don't clarity today. i think they are impl

bob: great question.ed to get rid whole idea that our businesses are going to get back to a certain level at a certain point. if we are doing the best we can, that should be good enough from their intended purposes. i cannot predict customers coming back the next six months. like the government to take care of paying for employees. there is no reason i should be put in the middle of that. you want to help me pay my rent, utilities, great. but let me figure out if i need five or 20 employees right now. i will deal with that. you cover on implement for the rest of them. onnot send me money based hiring people that i don't need. bob, you mentioned a number of challenges you are facing. one of them sounds very familiar to what we are having in canada. they putgency pay that in place to make sure people have a roof over their head, food on their plates, is generous, stopping people from coming back to work. do you think there needs to be a some point to make sure that people have the right incentives to come b

i will start at the far end, with professor bob anderson. i'm only going to say about bob that he is a young scholar who is embedded in the indian movement and basically has the ability to look at the elaboration of history in a very positive way, in a nonpartisan way, even though he was part of a previous democratic administration. i cannot describe reid chambers. he calls himself a subaltern to me when we were working together back in the 1970's. well, thank you, but the fact of the matter is that this guy is a scholar, he's a lawyer, and he has devoted his entire career to representing tribal interests. he is a giant in his field. and i am leading up -- i won't say this is the best or that the last is best, but i will guarantee you that i have never seen a person with such passion as bobbie kilberg. she started as a white house fellow. and grabbed this issue when she was working with john ehrlichman and has never let it go and has had a very distinguished career in government to this very day. but she has also done other things in the tec

in dublin, bob redell, "today in the bay." >>> all right, thank you very much, bob. more emotion is expected today in a butte county courtroom. that's when relatives of victims who died in the 2018 paradise fire will be appearing at pg&e's court hearing. it's that plea hearing that is going on. yesterday ceo bill johnson entered a guilty plea, 84 times. each time to one count of involuntary manslaughter. faulty equipment started the fire. as part of the plea pg&e will pay a maximum $3.5 million fine. a scathing grand jury report found the utility repeatedly ignored warnings about putting profits first. >>> new details in a deadly police shooting two weeks ago in a chaotic protest in vallejo. officers filed a temporary restraining order to block officers' names from being released tied to the death of sean monterrosa. investigators say an officer mistook the hammer in monterrosa's shirt pocket for a gun and then fired.

"today in the bay" tracie potts is live this morning with that and the effort to remove symbols of racism in washington and the nation's military basis. tracie? >> right. the president is a big no on renaming those bases and he's getting a lot of questions, too, marcus, about this rally that he scheduled next week about the timing and the location of that. president trump heads to dallas today. he'll talk police reform with state leaders and law enforcement. but it's his rally next week in tulsa, oklahoma, that is drawing criticism. >> beautiful new venue. brand-new. and they're looking forward to it. >> reporter: that rally, the first since the coronavirus pandemic is scheduled on june 19th. june teenth, a day when african-americans remember the end of slavery happening in a city where a white mob killed hundreds of black residents in 1921. the preside

and at the time, that was extremely rare for tt to happen, bob.ert: jonathan,'ve been followingour reporting all week. you comout of a great tradition at the "new york times." when you think about the political side here, what was gained? was this a presint thinkthg abou campaign and law and order and suburban vots or something olse? yeah, he had his eye on his re-election, certainly in his comments. i think h sees an opportunity to try to come across as somebody who is -- pushing off of people's television that are to some voters frightening seeing- looting, seeing stores being broken into. trump has taken it upon himself saying if i'm thene as a strong man to come down on that conduct, i'm to be over atpolitically. a gamble, though, because if people want order, they wa stability, they're not looking for a sort of chaotic moment, well, he's probably not the best candidate given his conduct. this has always been the challenge with trump, bob, is that even ifor he'sof given can itical oortunity, he often be his own worst enemy given his own rhetor
