he had himself wheeled into churchill's bedroom to tell him the news it so happened churchill was coming out of the bathroom and had nothing on so roosevelt said i'm so sorry, i'll come back in a few moments with churchill ever able to speak in a formal voice said least say the prime minister of great britain has nothing to hide from the president of the united states . >> he would go into the room where he saves live and read aloud to them from shakespeare's comedies. when they would fall asleep he would return to his own bed and those comic passages would be in his head rather than use of the day. fdr had his own ritual for nights that were filled with great attention. he isclosed his eyes and imagine himself back in hyde park as a boy standing with his debt sweat at the top of the hill that stretched down from the wooded clips below at the hudson river. he would in his mind i accelerate down the hill maneuvering all the familiar curves, get to the bottom of the hill, take this land up and go over and over again. again and again he would play that remembered seeing undoing the knowledg

churchill was just coming out of the bathtub and had absolutely nothing on. so roosevelt said, i'm so sorry. i'll come back in a few moments, but churchill ever able to speak in a very formal voice said, oh no, please stay the prime minister of great britain has nothing to hide from the president of the united states. can you imagine you have the ability to say that at that moment and then he's told the idea of using the word united nations. he quotes an entire poem in british literature where the words united nations and once been used. so the next morning i couldn't wait to go in the bath. and then i truly felt i am in the presence of the greatness of the past. but still despite cocktail hours theaters exercising there were times when the pressures were such that sleep proved impossible what then did the presidents do. well lincoln had two rituals on really troubling days. he would go over pardons for soldiers before bedtime. if he found an excuse for saving a soldier's life from death who had fallen asleep on pick a duty perhaps or run away from battle. he

she did have very dual dinners with winston churchill -- dull dinners with winston churchill, who stepped on her toes when they went dancing. she did marry a handsome stockbroker from maryland, but he had more charm than money. she was madly in love with him, he her. she had one of the most lavish weddings ever held in maryland. this was -- i forgot to say -- she was born not long after the civil war in 1878. so, right after the wedding -- well, nine months after the wedding, they had a son. [laughter] i kept count. jeff: [laughter] janet: they made it. [laughter] and, they had a wonderful society kind of life. you know, the country club dinners and the charity luncheons and the special dances and all of that. jeff: all right, so why did she want to be a spy? she seems to have a perfect life and existence. why do that dangerous work? janet: she did. but, in 1915, her husband died very young. she was a widow at 37. she was very interested in world affairs. she had traveled as a child to europe every summer. she spoke five languages fluently. at the age of 10, she was the family translator

so i say if he can do it, if churchill could do it, if mlk do this, churchill, where did churchill practice? churchill. there's a story about his valet. norman, who used to hear churchill murmur in the bathroom, in the tub and. he would run and say, sir, what can i get you? and he would say, norman, i'm not talking to you. i'm addressing the house of commons. churchill would practice his speeches. the topic is churchill. i tell the story in the book when he was a younger mp, tried to give a speech, the commons lost his place, went red faced. i'm sure many of us have been there just, couldn't remember what was the next thing they wanted to say. and he got if you watch the house of commons is not like the house of representatives is much more furious prime minister is quite spicier little spicier belligerent and he got heckled down was so embarrassed that that would never happen to me again. so he spent the next 20, 30 years becoming the guy we now remember fight on the beaches, stand up to the nazis that, didn't come naturally to him. so give us a little sense of each stage. so you have a bi

eh, churchill. to be honest, in his place, i used this for the first time, if memory serves.hey compared godin with churchill, that is, his vietnamese dictator in the sixty-first year of linden johnson, then the vice president under kennedy went there to south vietnam and called him that after 2 years, what happened to him? in general, liquidated. yes, here, as if in 2 years, the new churchill is written off, therefore here you need to think for him, in any case , think, yes, and the old god be with him. but the fact that everyone was all churching, then after 2 years they leave this is important. i could never understand at all, i speak to this program several times. where did you get the legends about the great political figure from the people who came out of the war as a winner. not only lost the elections, but lost the empire. yes, that is, de facts, the british empire collapsed as a result of the second world war, but they formally blamed it and everyone else, you can immediately blame it. anything, but it's a fact. data collapsed yes, it is considered to be considered i

fdr, stalin and churchill, rosa velt gives his inaugural address, his fourth inaugural in in january. of 1945, the shortest inaugural speech of his presidency. again, he's in he's in really declining health at this point. but he makes a fateful decision to attend a conference of the big three despite, again, his poor health because of his concerns about keeping the alliance together. and we're going to go to portion of the exhibit where we focus very closely on what happens next. so we moved a different part of the exhibition to pick up the story where we left off. we were talking about fdr, his election, and then his inaugural in january of 1945, and then he makes a decision to take a very long journey to and this all relates to his his desires and hopes for the postwar. maybe we can pick that up, david, and talk a little about that. it's interesting. you know, when we think about the 1944 election and where things stood at the end of that year, we tend to forget, you know, the war was by no means over in europe or in asia, more americans died, for example, in the battle of the bulge

can -- >> where did churchill practice?ory of his valet who used to hear churchill murmuring in the bathroom in the tub and he would run and say sir what can i get you and he would say i'm not talking to you i'm addressing house ofdr commons. churchill would practice his speech in the talk because in the book when he was a younger mp tries to give a speech in the commons went red face i'm sure many have been there and couldn't remember what what wast thing to sayho and it was not le house of representatives it was furious -- >> spicier -- and belligerent so spent next 30 years fight them on beaches stapgd up to the nazis that didn't come naturally to him. >> give us a little sense of each stage so you have a big interview coming up this sundaye maybe you do i don't know what it is you can tell us all here. [laughter] whatat are you doing to prepare for that starting tomorrow -- >> so the number one thing i do when i have an interview guest and i encourage this doesn't just apply to interviews but you have a big meeting in t

is close because of that another danger threatened both of them, which is interesting that before churchill and stalin actually came close and germany attacked the soviet union, poland, germany, and the soviet union had already reached an agreement about poland. one of the iranian concerns was that iran and germany and the soviet union reach an agreement that small governments are always worried about this agreement being great powers during the war, on this basis, iran tried to behave in such a way that it would not be closer to hitler and stalin to attack iran. i wanted the 9th defense treaty based on this, but secretly, britain i didn't do this because countries are close to each other based on their proximity, but based on their proximity to each other. when germany and the soviet union are close to each other, the germans hear these rumors, the rumors that are circulating in tehran, in political circles that attack iran. slow, but it needs to be said that actually the rumors that the british embassy is making up, at the same time that we are united and close, radio berlin attacks reza

i have been reading books about churchill.he capacity to take the heat, when the german planes were flying over, he would be up on the rooftop. he insisted that is where the action was. madeleine: is it true there is courage everywhere you look, not necessarily in government, but other places? i am thinking of young kids who filed a lawsuit against montana and one. mr. gergen: i am so glad you raise that. the people who showed courage these days and purpose tend to be black, people of color, and they tend to be women. black women are on the high moral ground. they have shown a lot of courage. you look at rosa parks, a long tradition coming down from that. people doing really gutsy things. the interesting thing is we are beginning to see with women making their way in the world. it is much better than it was. women have been working hard at success. whereas young men have gone the opposite. there are a variety of industries, what is happening to the epidemic of loneliness. in drugs and that sort of thing. it is also true, the s

delivering lectures on washington and lincoln, churchill and did all. i'm pleased to have an article on the late jesuit political theorist, a brand-new issue of modern age . there was a man who knew the meaning of both reason and revelation to the depths of his soul. i've joked with family and friends that i know all seven good just wits. there may be 12 or 14 but i know them all and i'll tell you a quick story about him. months before he died age of 91 i just published a book called the idol of our age, how the origin of humanity was christianity and i wrote to father tim i need your address. to send you my new book. he said nevermind, i've alreadyreviewed it . he was a 91-year-old jesuit. right to the very end. and of course let's not forget all the bright decent amiable and energetic students i came over the years. and a few that challenged the nerves but on the whole the students were just a delight. and open and hungry with the kind of wisdom that is less and less available on college campuses today. so in a contemporary climate where education at

i understand that the west constantly refuses to make an equal sign between what churchill said and thetion that i will now remind you that kerchen said that there will be a west will consider the nazi hitlerian potential destroyed when the defense potential of germany and japan will be completely destroyed, this was churchill's phrase. and now the west cannot afford to think like that because it is afraid to even think about russia's nuclear disarmament and is afraid to even think about the possibility of losing control of putin's criminal regime, er, control over nuclear weapons. well, in the end, it does not make the situation easier for ukraine, and it forces the defense forces to move on with the risk of losses with such bloody fierce battles, but this is moving towards de-occupation. states well, by the way, there is a lot of discussion on russian television about the fact that western weapons are on fire, we will see what will happen to the planes, although we remember that putin said that if the planes are given to ukraine , they will take off somewhere in other countries. well,

the most important thing is that in general i was in the box with churchill's son , the united states. he forgot at all with whom churchill fought and with whom he was ally in the forties, but maybe it doesn't know, i don't argue. you know very well. i named them today. well, yesterday, american time, we had a debate night. here are the republican candidates. yes, uh rama with you, essentially winning this debate in the absence of trump. e of the candidates who refused to support ukraine and he won. well, you understand how cunning he is, as it were, uh, resolutely raised his hand that she refuses to support ukraine and, get the one standing next to whom for a long time was considered the favorite after trump. yes he is how would you know just a minute so something there waved in such a way that it seems like he picked it up. well, at the right time. still, it will be appreciated together now. you do not support an increase in funding for ukraine. i do not. i think it's a disaster that we're defending someone else's border invasion when we should be using the same military resources t

such was churchill's phrase and now the west cannot afford to think like that because it is afraid toear disarmament of russia and is afraid to even think about the possibility of losing control of the criminal regime of putin er control over nuclear weapons er well er in the end it does not make the situation easier for ukraine er and er forces the defense forces to move further with the risk of er losses with er such bloody fierce battles but this is moving in the direction de-occupation of the state well, by the way , there is a lot of discussion on russian television about the fact that western weapons are on fire, we will see what will happen to the planes, although we remember that putin said that if the planes

there's a wonderful story of a visit from churchill to roosevelt during world war two and he recalledsitting by the president's side for two hours as the president was just simply putting his stamps in a place for getting the cares of the world until finally a dispatch came in the both of them had to turn their attention to the world war at large, but he said he just found enormous comfort in watching that roosevelt would switch himself from those terr. precious to something like a stamp collection and then there was also his love of poker a love that was shared by truman and eisenhower fdr relished the psychological aspects of the game as i suspect all of them did and he took particular pleasure in paying by check when he lost because he figured that the person who he lost to would want to keep the check as a souvenir so he would never ca keep the check as a souvenir so they would never cash it but the great story was his custom every year when the speaker of the house was about call when congress would adjourn he would like a poker game and congress was a journey who was was ahead w

the churchill said, if napoleon had had the prompt a newspaper, no one would ever have known that he lost the battle of waterloo and to put in the pretty good and can afford to lose the ukraine. war was still just kinda clear. it also stands behind sweden's bid to join nato distribution submarines and operate them in the baltic sea or then we have a skilled fleet with modern corvettes and the ability to operate in coastal areas and move around the idea that you just now you also have a strong defense industry in sweden, city out of bosses. right. and there's no other country in the world with 10000000 inhabitants that can build and design both submarines and combat aircraft for those 2 days clicked on. another important factor is good land. a swedish island in the baltic sea. busy chalk those coming for the opportunity for later on. so sam and o told him he's one of 3 strategic p and pull some times in the politics. the region are treat for and homes another item, it's a danish territory. so, you know, to look for from russia's colleen in grafton and just tossed the entry way to the

so she had a check with us in the blue, and that's the churchill said. if napoleon had had the prompt a newspaper, no one would ever have known that he lost the battle of waterloo, and we'll put you on, was a pretty good and you can afford to lose the ukraine war. and we're still just convinced the russian people. but they're actually winning the war. we go in stock on the united states, make clear. it also stands behind sweden speed to join nato, a semester. thanks for hosting me today and, and thanks for the warm welcome. and the special thanks for those great. one of the 1st you have made the bow and historic decision to apply for nato membership. and you have the full and firm support of the united states. but what will nato gain from the membership of these 2 countries, which may be geographically large, but have a relatively small population. only $16000000.00 people in all the on steam in each house and should be in on into looking at the middle trees of sweden and finland. it's evident that they both have well equipped and powerful armed forces.

the pleasure of participating in the george washington program delivering lectures in washington, churchilli am pleased to have an article on james scholl the issue of modern age. there was a man who knew the meaning of reason and revelation to the depths of his soul. i know all seven could in the world. there may be 12 or 14 but he's among the greatest of them. before he died at the age of 91 and published a book in religious of humanity and i wrote him and said jim, i need your address to send you my book. he said nevermind, i've already reviewed it so there was a 91-year-old who was alert to the verynd end and let's not forget the great decent energetic students i came across over the years but a few that challenged the nerds and they were just like, open and hungry for the kind of wisdom less and less available on college campuses today so contemporaryy climate where education at every level combines repudiation of our inheritance with contentedness that seeks to destroy what remains of him. the work has become even more and i am proud to stand with isi in this enterprise. the inheritan

was broken there in the seventy's back during world war 2, franklin d. roosevelt hosted winston churchill there is it's always had that kind of, that kind of stays at. so i think there's an important message by having doesn't come, david dot add us, wants to nail down this very, very important regional partnership with 2 of its great allies in the region. japan inside korea who haven't always seen i to i, but in this case they now have sort of a common adversary, maybe enemies to strong in china and also with north korea to have japan and south korea come together like this was something many people thought impossible just a few short years ago. what changed? yeah, i mean, this week mark, 78 years since the ending of, of japan's colonization of south korea. so it's, it's, it's a big weekend and they've had a lot of issues. they always had issues about sex slavery during the 2nd world war, and a lot of residual issues from that and trade difficulties down the years. but i think what brought them together is, 1st of all, the china has emerged as a major improvements in the region. and also

when i walked hillsdale tonight, i saw the beautiful portrait of churchill just before covid i was speaking at another great american university. and at the end of my remarks. it's common for people who who speak from time to time people will come down to where you're speaking afterward and and you have a bit of conversation. and i had a number of undergraduates come down who told me they were really intrigued by this of winston churchill, whom they had heard of. george washington, thomas jefferson. theodore roosevelt. theodore roosevelt. oh, my gosh. roosevelt. remarkable ame another one of my favorite hist who who died very, very recently, not even in. right. but wrote one of the besle volumes ever written on american and the story of america right paul johnson, john theodore roosevelt rightfully was paul johnson's favorite president, right. he famously every american one time in his or her life should stand on the south rim of the grand canyon right. i know i have new yorkers in the room this evening, you know, he bequeath wreathed to the natural museum in new york that incredible museum

he became part of an enduring legend, and like mark twain, winston churchill, and oscar wilde, many famous quips old and new were treated to him that he almost certainly never said. some that had been uttered by his father and namesake also rebounded to the sun. a few stores in particular stubbornly refused to die. a second-class mind but a first-class temperature -- temper is often quoted as his assessment of fdr, but it has no basis in reality. oh, to be 80 again, what the 90 -- 90-year-old justice was thought to have said wasn't not bad but it was not him using. variations go back a century before him. many brought observations about aging were indubitably his. one of my greatest problems, he casually observed to his young secretary one day, is to find available vices for old age. starting at age 70, he always picked a young man to be his secretary, and he said that he was subject to the right to dog him or reside. his putdowns have occasionally achieved well deceit -- deserved a mortality. holmes once said that a man's mind was like a vice, the jaws of which did not meet. it only held
