for that we're joined by carrie johnson of npr.s week about eric holder's resignation and she joins us now. thank you for taking a few minutes. yes, the attorney general was in ferguson last month. the attorney general has made it clear that this is a very important investigation to him by the department with eric holder stepping aside imminently. is that going to affect how the justice department approaches this in any way? >> eric holder has said he's going to stay on the job until the president nominates and the senate confirms his successor. and, steve, that could take the rest of the year and into 2015. i was doing some reporting this week and it's not clear that the ferguson investigations will be done before eric holder leaves. note, steve, there are two investigations. one of officer darren wilson and whether he violated the civil rights of michael brown. and a second, a civil investigation of whether the ferguson police department has engaged in a pattern or practice of discrimination. that investigation may take a little

. >> carrie johnson, was this unexpected? >> eric holder's been signaling for months and months now that he did not intend to serve a full two interprets as attorney general. he pointed out that one of his former bosses, janet reno, the attorney general in the clinton years, did so and he thought that was a marathon enterprise. he did not want to serve a full eight years. of course, peter, the timing here is delicate because you don't want to leave with less than a year in the administration to leave the white house with the political problem of replacing you before an election. so holder figured now was the right time. he says he's going to stay until the senate confirms his successor which of course sets up a big battle between democrats and republicans on capitol hill over the timing of that decision. a battle that they started to engage as early as yesterday afternoon with charles grassley, the leading republican on the senate judiciary committee saying we don't want to have any confirmation hearing for a potential ag nom

it reads, officer carrie johnson had heard debris fall from the truman balcony the night before.ned during the roll call before her shift saturday afternoon as superiors explained that the gun shots were from people in two cars shooting at each other. johnson had told people friday night she thought the house had been hit. but on saturday she did not challenge her superiors. for fear of being criticized. she later told investigators. that's what she said. what do you make of that? are we into a situation now where there's sort of a, don't ask questions situation, because you don't want bad pr, making the white house look more vulnerable than they wanted to look? >> i think that is one of the big concerns. i can tell you there was a robust exchange about that very point that you just mentioned. congressman cummings really after a series of tough questions about that, about the culture, about why that secret service agent that night didn't feel as though she could say, i did hear gun shots fired. instead that agent felt as though she had to leak it. she said it was a breakdown in t

[james duesenberry] but in 1965, the real aggregate demand was rising at an annual rate of nearly 8%. it was continuing to rise into 1966. that produced the high-capacity utilization, the ring raw materials prices, and the decline in unemployment accompanied by labor shortages. many economists felt a tax increase would take money from consumers and business. spending would drop, inflationary pressures retreat. but as the tax measure was debated, the white house would unleash new inflationary forces. johnson didn't want to hear warnings about inflation. lyndon johnson had a dream of a great society. this administration today, here and now, declares unconditional war on poverty in america. lbj b
