but senator byrd aside is a difference. when daniel webster delivered his reply to senator haynes, he knew his audience would understand the like mcbath passed on current events. shakespeare was a central part of what's a historian called a rich shared public culture. today that is left the case. when contemporary politicians invoke shakespeare, they are likely to do so superficially, grabbing a line from quotations on the internet in order to add a sheen of sophistication to their argument. i suggest that if we lose shakespeare, we lose something important to our political life. the folger library is here to remind us of this. that brings me back to our mystery, why is the faulder library here? in the early 20th century, henry folger, one of the leaders of standard oil of new jersey and his wife emily, amassed the world's finest collection of shakespeare's works, shakespeare scholarship and related artifacts. they owned for example, more than a quarter of the first folios in existence. all of this, piled up in the folger's

the overwhelmed bridge connecting the free time and cards byrd neighborhoods is a good place to wind up my corona summer day and. sometimes berlin makes it hard to believe that we're in the middle of a pandemic the city's unique spirit remains unchanged. our next destination was heidelberg. a centuries old bridge below. and enchanting old town in between. and a romantic castle altogether they make for one of germany's most popular destinations. and start by climbing the so-called philosopher's path following in the footsteps of long gone students and scholars from heidelberg university today local people and visitors alike take this path. from the top to get the best view of the city. how work is very high up on the to do list for anyone visiting germany this summer though the coronavirus pandemic has kept many travelers away what does that mean for locals and for tourists like me do manage to come what's the city like without the masses of visitors that's. i doubt. heidelberg palace is a must today it's a ruin but it's the ghostly air of mortality that makes up its charm. the castle

some than others isn't it it really is hall and let's take a look at the individuals who are running byrd in their burden in so many different ways now that eviction lab study found that people of color are disproportionately burden and at higher risk of addictions here are people of color made up about 80 percent of those 61000000 of actions that i spoke about between those years of 2000 to 2016 and according to the census bureau survey black people and latino's have been highly burdened during the pandemic 3 months into cova 19 african-americans and latino runners were twice as likely as white renters to report really their their inability to pay rent now it's people of color those with low income those with less education who are at higher risk of being a victim now $40000000.00 americans are at risk of action by the end of this month if unemployment remains at the levels we're seeing now which the november numbers they don't look good and it very well may given the surge in coven 1000 cases that we're seeing across almost every state in the u.s. since many experts are predicting that

byrd and sheryl sandberg indicated that they saw messaging apps as also being a huge threat to their business model in the future and that was explicitly discussed in 2014 right before the acquisition of whatsapp so what's interesting about this that makes it very different than a lot of these other cases is that you have as you said 46 states attorneys general you also have the f.t.c. all looking at this right and they're trying to make an antitrust case the question is what do you do about this case because remember with the d.o.j. google antitrust you and i have talked about this there was no prescription me saying what do you want the court to do they didn't make a prescription for google's antitrust case in this case there is a prescription he made the prescription it's break up the company make them divest of instagram and whatsapp that's a huge ask to be made of the court but i think it's a fair ask when you consider the fact that rigidly instagram was supposed to be a standalone company today it is not a standalone company it is completely merged with the marketing with the a

i think that stephen byrd having come in at the end of what was a complex and absorbing process couldo businesses together, with the sale of the life business, coming in as it was getting to the end of that cycle, he has come in with a growth agenda, he has come in --h an in norma's commit enormous commitment. we have the capabilities, we've got the skill sets. it is just a question of outward facing, and as the marketplace adjusts because of the coronavirus and the bill that will follow it, there is a huge opportunity for an asset manager with broad products to support. i think one of the things that , how wey important is use our firepower and the mandate that we have by asset owners to engage in that reconstruction in economies, particular within the esg, that is where we are, spending a lot of time designing that. francine: i know you started a formal auction for part many him. how many people are interested? douglas: all i can say is that the process is underway and we are very pleased with the interest that is being shown. francine: both you and the chief executive have so much

she would visit the white house with lyndon johnson and lady byrd, who she was friends with, but later she became friendly with nancy reagan and would visit. she believed very much in civility and that all the first ladies needed to be in their special club, if you like. david: when she got her tour right before the inauguration from mamie eisenhower, did she come back and say it looks wonderful, or did she say, maybe we could fix it up a little bit? dr. brinkley: maybe we could fix it up a little bit. it was underwhelming, the tour. and she was -- and i say that in a way that jackie kennedy was not putting mamie eisenhower down or grandstanding that i come from wealth and i can make the white house look beautiful, she just thought this should be repaired as a people's house as a repository for u.s. history. she thought the arts and furnishings needed to be upgraded and the objects in the white house should be administered by the smithsonian institution instead of it being done in a willy-nilly way, and she took this on because, as we mentioned, she had two children, little children. s

happens in this country in other parts of africa is people tend to leave the big cities as janice byrd and go to rule areas to spend the time with their family and friends the government officials here are concerned that this could cause another increase in infections what they have done to try and curb this is implement some new measures on the ground for example there will be a nighttime curfew they're saying the sale of alcohol in shops can only be sold on certain days and at certain times they saying in some places public gatherings or be limited in terms of numbers and one thing people here do a lot during the festive season is go and hang out at the beaches in huge numbers through these big parties with thousands sometimes attend the governesses this time around that would not be allowed some beaches would be closed no partying would be accepted the question of course now is what that for can so eager to celebrate the festive season are they going to listen to what the government has been saying. ok so south africa give us a picture if you can across the rest of the continent. it

senator byrd told my brother -- offered joe to use his office, which we did. >> and then came the phonemy biden, and i picked up the phone and jimmy biden said, "come home now, there's a terrible accident with neilia and the boys and the babies, all three." >> and you flew back and didn't -- >> we didn't say a word. i just -- we just -- it was a bumpy ride, i remember that. it was a tiny plane, and i remember he was on my right and i just had my hand on his leg, and we just, i mean -- you know. you know. humira patients,... ...this one's for you. you inspired us to make your humira experience even better... with humira citrate-free. it has the same effectiveness you know and trust, but we removed the citrate buffers, there's less liquid, and a thinner needle... with less pain immediately following injection. ask your doctor about humira citrate-free. and you can use your co-pay card to pay as little as $5 a month. humira can lower your ability to fight infections. serious and sometimes fatal infections,... ...including tuberculosis, and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened,... ...

bob byrd as the majority leader, howard baker as the minority leader, how they got things dob for -- done for the american people. and the author laments that the senate doesn't operate today nbltions fashion. i was here for one of those years. senator leahy was here. his closing is more today than it was when the book was published. america is adrift in turbulent and dangerous waters facing enormous challenges at home and abroad. we urgently need our once vaulted political system to function at its best instead of at its worst. to be sure, it's more difficult being a senator today than it was in the 1960's, in the 1970's. the increasingly vitriolic political culture fueled by the 24-hour news cycle, the endless pressure to raise money, the proliferation of lobbyists and organized interests are all known and they take a toll. but all of those factors make it essential that our country has a senate of men and women who bring wisdom, judgment, experience, and independence to their work along with an understanding that the senate must be able to take collective action in the national in

you could have written this story about robert byrd. you could have written this story for 30 years ago strom thurmond. you have a very funny line where somebody is relaying what a member of congress was saying to harry reid who responded by saying, knock it off, we know what you think. this has been happening in the senate especially for a very long time, but my god, it is disturbing, is it not? >> i mean, it is. and as you say, this is something that everybody in the senate knows. and up on the hill, it's no secret, but it's been kept kind of a secret from the american people and also from voters so that when dianne feinstein ran for re-election in 2018, there was really no open discussion of this in california. but people on the hill knew all about it. and it's a sad story. i people, this isn't something that gives anybody any joy to talk about really. because she's been a tremendous force in politics and done a lot of fantastic things, but what they're saying and what they have been saying for a couple of years now is she's really s

when he arrived at the house, he was a young man among giants, byrd, stephens, dole, but the name roberts has come to define its own brand of heartland statesmanship. pat is the first to admit he didn't establish that name all on his own. he inherited it from another great kansan, charles wesley roberts was a marine, a journalist and leader in republican politics. so get ready to experience some deja vu, mr. president, because at age 16 our future colleague got to attend the 1952 convention that nominated kansas' own general eisenhower.

so, just like senator byrd, i also think the lord's day, particularly when it's paired with the weight of starting the new congress, deserves reverence. i yield. mr. mcconnell: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. mcconnell: our bipartisan, bicameral discussions on another major pandemic rescue package continued all night and this morning. we are winnowing down the remaining differences. i think i can speak for all sides when i say i expect and hope to have a final agreement nailed down in a matter of hours. yesterday evening democratic colleagues agreed to important language authored by senator toomey. congress approved several new lending facilities to be operated by the federal reserve. it was to backstop the basic foundations of our economy and prevent any sweeping financial paralysis. the historic legislation staved off systematic collapse. american workers and families still need much more help, but a total financial meltdown never materialized. these new emergency lending facilities were always intended to sunset at the end of this year. senator toomey
