it's not just d.c. right this is happen that a across the country i'm curious do you see how cold it is impacting this really knew before we get to co you know you're saying you know goes back to red lining i would say go back much for who did that and say you know directors very familiar with the famous film i believe is that cocoa really doe's go back to in slave minutes this idea of white supremacy in a really think that we're powerlessness really is presented throughout the show and i think it kind of shows the powerlessness you know black communities that have historically been economic weakness that franchise most of you know i was watching about menaces aside do you think that talked a lot about what happened to the urban centers when the jobs had left and black said that. they're kind of the next generation coming without jobs are going to be left to the drug trade and the powerlessness in that snow and i think that this film shows the powerlessness in gentrification and what's so kind of stark

pretty you touch on don't you d.c. in the go-go's scene in d.c. and how was that much interpretation. so i said oh and i want to again encourage everyone to see residue because some of the opening scene it seems is that there's still that film and that neighborhood during the time to see movement that was taking place last year you know it's this prime example of this black cultural property existed that was bred in d.c. that was discordant that was noisy that was too much for the new presidents who came in to the neighborhood so the story is that you know there's a location shot essential communication and so it's t.v. of a store and the owner donna campbell will play go go music for the last 20 years every single day from 10 to 7 and there were complaints were made nearby residential building where there was a white president who basically kept calling the cops kept calling the department of consumer and regulatory affairs basically saying we want to set this status to elaborate and so there's this way that go go is d.c. but goes black d.c. and

washington, d.c. was my mother's home. we went there -- going to washington, d.c.as something we did every summer. for summer to do it vacation so we could be there for the march. earlyived at the march because my aunt was a red cross volunteer. early, went tose the red cross building, picked up a truck, then proceeded to the grounds of the monument. we had an advantage. we were there early before the buses started rolling in and people were arriving on train. when i got there, i could see the grass and the ground and the flags surrounding the monument. like an houremed or so, you couldn't see anything but people. and to hear music and paul mary started off at lincoln memorial. there were people that i was accustomed to hearing. it was a good moment. one that i have lived with as a moment of honor every year since. course, getting a picture made it more special. being a civil rights activist is what i was destined to be. >> that's incredible. derek, how did you become interested in the history of black activism in our nations capital and what aspect of the march, t

he slunk past all of his critics to get to d.c. now, lincoln would later say to his bodyguard he was sorry he had actually succumbed to the advice of his advisors to get to d.c. in that particular way. it made him -- it caused more division, even as he was going to try to unite this splintering country where already the confederates had been declaring their leadership, their new law s. they had even had congresspeople stealing books out of the library of congress to bring to their new library that was going to represent the new country. so, it was a kind of nightmare for abraham lincoln. so, that relationship with joseph howard was not dissolved by that particular incident. he went on to be invited along for various trips that lincoln took to talk to generals and in to events at the white house. we get to may of 1864. now, this is a reelection year. there's a lot at stake. i mean, first of all, lincoln at this point, he's weary from the cares of the war. he says in the early part of the year, "i don't think i'm going to make it to

it's taking a while for information to come back from d.c. and, finally, they get word that abraham lincoln has gone into the biggest rage that apparently one of the witnesses had ever seen him in in his entire presidency. and he immediately puts out an order that they, the generals are to arrest all the telegraph officers not just in new york but also baltimore, through pennsylvania and d.c. to seize all of the telegrams that are coming from d.c. to new york. newspaperinto the officers and arrest the newspaper editors who put out the proclamation and take over the newspaper offices with the military. a totals caused panic within the city because this was absolutely unconstitutional. there was no warrant for the arrests. there was no going to trial, bringing this to a judge to have them sign the warrant. it was just an immediate seizure, and people thought abraham lincoln was a tyrant to do this. see, all oflet's these editors of these important, you know, these two important papers, "the new york world" and "the journal of commerce," they ar

they deface property and lit fires d.c. police are investigating the crimes as hate crimes take a look at some of the footage we gathered on the ground. there you see. it was. that. according to the black lives matter organization the white nationalist groups targeted ashbury united methodist church the oldest african-american church to remain at its original site this church was founded in 836 they also attacked metropolitan. a series of videos of the attacks were posted by the proud boys on twitter pastors say this is reminiscent of cross burnings. wow you know that's of so interesting about that story is that while a lot of us of heard about you know that there was these protests and they got violent you know the transporters gone violent over the weekend in washington d.c. it felt like i was till you came in and told me this morning i never even knew that black churches were targeted during these protests why why is that why is it so hard for the media to cover that. it's actually a long and storied history where attack

and keep their georgia values in d.c., not have washington, d.c. values. that's what david perdue has done. that's what he'll continue do -- continue to do to represent you and georgia and the armed services committee and all the things that are so important that region and our state. these two fighters here. david perdue and kelly loeffler. georgia needs them, america needs them, our republic needs them. help me welcome my cousin, david perdue, united states senator. ♪ ♪ everyone's watching to see what you will do everyone's looking at you ♪ david: hello, georgia! god bless y'all for being out here on a great georgia afternoon. thank you. sonny said it best. we're the last line of defense. the eyes of america are on us. and we're not going to let them down. with your help we're going to win georgia and cey america. [applause] there are a couple of reasons why we have to do this. one is we have to hold the line against this lad call socialist agenda the democrats are trying to perpetrate on our beloved america. the second reason is that we have to hold the

why yes oh this latest rally here in d.c. was referred to as the 1000000 maggie march say about 3 times fast this is a segment on the we've seen here in d.c. and then even across the country we've seen these quote unquote stop the steel marches and they seem to be made up of thousands of trump supporters who sincerely do believe that he was the rightful winner of the election and severe taking to the streets to make their voices heard now a number of these protesters they have been largely peaceful you've seen people of all ages out there you know family members kids all of that taking part in it and it's a lot of times when those proud boys members and some of those outside groups get involved that then we see violence now if you're asking the question of why are these people still marching we also have to remember these are people who don't trust the media right now they don't trust the government right now there were a number of people here in d.c. that were marching not wearing masks at all and when they were asked by rep

. >>> washington, d.c. holds more power and influence, than anywhere else in the world. >> d.c. emergency 911. how can i help you? >> i need the police to come quickly. i've just found my wife dead. >> and as a homicide prosecutor, i have learned some people will do anything to get a piece of that power for themselves. >> how does somebody in d.c. get away with that? >> when i received the assignment to prosecute the case involving the murder of viola draft, i realized this was going to be a challenge unlike any that i had handled before. >> did you attempt to give her any cpr? >> nope. the obvious was obvious. >> not exactly a grieving spouse. >> no, no emotion, whatsoever. >> she's not breathing? >> no. she is clearly dead. >> i'm glenn kirschner, and i work as a federal prosecutor in washington, d.c. for more than 20 years. i have learned that, in the nation's capital, there's no telling where a murder case may lead you. you may have heard, on crime shows, prosecutors sit around and try to figure out how they're going to prove means, motive, and opportunity. you know, we don'

d.c.er name's chief judge beryl howell. she issued this order in late august. she unsealed it on tuesday although a whole bunch of stuff in the order was still blacked out. what we could see in this document that made it such big news was that it showed that federal prosecutors, justice department prosecutors, had been actively investigating what the judge described as a bribery for pardons scheme. a quote secret lobbying scheme and bribery conspiracy by which some number of people were suspected of arranging bribes in the form of substantial political contributions. what they wanted in exchange for those substantial political contributions was, quote, a presidential pardon or reprieve of sentence. so a cash for pardon scheme in the trump white house being investigated by the justice department? really? that was as far as we knew this story went two days ago. well, just within the last hour, just in the last few minutes, "the new york times" has started to fill in a bunch of the blanks her

we want the people who work in d.c., who serve d.c. residents, to also be protected by our vaccine. the same strategy that we have followed for our testing strategy and as of today, my health director tells me we test the most per capita of any jurisdiction in the united states and that is going to help us contain this virus until we can fully deploy the vaccine. >> unfortunately, the vaccines clearly aren't here yet but could be here the next several weeks. the covid cases, they are awful right now. they are on the rise. not only in d.c. but around the country. we still don't know the full impact of the thanksgiving gatherings, all of the travel around thanksgiving. we will know that maybe in a week or two. at what point will you consider implementing more health restrictions, mayor? >> well, we have been very conservative in our approach, wolf, to -- how we reopen from our stay-at-home order back in june and we have slowly reopened. we never made it to phase three of reopening. we have stayed on a very conservative phase two. last week, i instituted some more -- i've dialed down o

we're very grateful to the people of washington, d.c., the business owners of washington, d.c., who very heeded our advice, and helped us best contain this virus as much as possible to get us to this day. the day when this vaccine starts going out, people start getting this vaccine, get all of their questions answered so they inoculate themselves and their families with the vaccine. today i was actually with several members of d.c. fire and ems, and they will be among the first d.c. government workers who are part of the medical community who will be inoculated starting this thursday. and so the stories that we heard from them, that they're doing it for their city. so that they can go out and do their job safely. they're doing it for their own families. that when they go out to work each day exposing themselves, they know that they aren't then exposing their families. and they're doing it so that we can get back to normal. just as soon as possible. so i am grateful for what i know has been a herculean scientific effort, logistics effort, and now i want all of us to make sure we're commun

at this point in d.c.i would take the most important memorial perhaps the most important memorial for nationwide is the -- which was integrated by president harding on the third anniversary on november 11th, 1921, you can tell from the image that the tombs had not been built, what they have here is the casket. since then of course later on they had one for world war ii. and vietnam, and the korean war, and of course they also found out who the vietnam soldier was and they moved his remains and return them to the family. so i think that's actually the first time that we ever done something like this before, had at tomb of the unknown soldier. many followed after. this many localities built local monuments. so whatever town you came from you might see a small monument like they have all over europe for the dead who died in the great war. for the soldiers who fought and give their lives for us. also on the national mall you see two different memorials slash monuments that are on the mall. actually there on th

so to give statehood to d.c. would be a huge win for d.c.esidents but a huge win for everybody who wants to solve climate change or get health care or have a better supreme court because d.c. right now doesn't have a say in any of that because the senate is designed to give a lot of power to a very small group of people and to deny power to us. so that starts to sort of balance out the numbers problem in the senate. >> you know, john, i think that first of all, 100 is a nice round number in terms of the u.s. senate which i think is always ending up working on people in d.c. more than it should but there is a sense adding states you can't do that but of course, we've done it a ton and every time it been partly a political progress sce. we've added states for political reasons. >> it's always been political. it always been political and about power. in fact, from the very beginning in fact, it was the disputes over the powers over the states versus the central government and articles of confederation that led to the constitutional convention a

you could probably not find a site in washington, d.c.hat is more suited to dwight eisenhower to have a memorial. this square is sounded by health and human services, which used to be called health, ed kaegs and welfare, which was started during the eisenhower administration and then behind you have the department of education, former, hew and started during the oinds hour administration. the federal aviation administration started during the eisenhower administration and the jewel in the crown, full, the air and space museum and, of course, nasa wimp began during the eisenhauer situation as we walk into the memorial from this corner, we have the, coulder here with five stars which was the insignificantia of the five stars for general eisenhower and others dugard world war ii. when there was a commission, it called for him to be rec noise the not only at the 34th person of the united states but expedition rather and the fact that it's clad same avon bar from spain, recognizes this role that he has as five-store general and commander of al

d.c.in the beltway, and literally around the globe as he served as the united states secretary of state and also further served four united states presidents over the course of three decades. secretary baker was scheduled to be our capstone speaker at the 2020 vision for leadership conference. however, he and mrs. baker contracted covid-19. i'm pleased to report that they now have covid-19, the illness, in their rear view mirror. today, the secretary will be interviewed, as i noted, by talmage boston. talmage in his own right is a high-profile persona in texas and across the nation. he is a leading trial lawyer. he is known in our profession as what we call a go-to lawyer or a super lawyer. talmage is also a historian, and he has a special, focused interest on the qualities of leadership in the public and the private square. recently, he authored a book in which he sat down with presidential historians to examine the qualities of leadership that have characterized various united states pre

and they helped me immeasurably in d.c. talmage: peter and susan talk about, of course, your success in working with congress and talk about the ricochets in politics and that you were the master, like a pinball player, being able to play the ricochets. and as i thought about that, i thought about your famous five p's, prior preparation prevents poor performance. how did that five p's translate into being able to deal with the political ricochets that you had to confront constantly? sec. baker: well, they were even more important when you're dealing with the politics of washington. particularly in some of the jobs i had. you know, i get asked frequently , talmage, what do you consider was your most significant accomplishment in the 12 years you were in washington? and i said the most significant accomplishment was running five campaigns for president, being chief of staff for two different presidents, being secretary of treasury and secretary of state , and leaving washington unindicted. and i think my experience as a lawye

house of representatives representing washington d.c. president and it was an amazing day obviously a part of a historic moment in history in any normal election year some might say this part of the process may have gone unnoticed by the american public about see even the international audience as well how have you sort of soul to how have you felt about sort of the gaze of public attention considering all of the flora around this particular election. so help her it was an absolute honor to always vote at american citizen number one i think during this year particularly 2020 is the year the nerves in the midwife i am a nurse 20 twentieth's are also the year we celebrate the women's suffrage movement i am a woman 2020 unfortunately as a year of where we had many strike and death around the cook at 19 at him to make the vibrant that is happening and ravaging our entire world and so as a proud line worker i'm excited to be able to participate that process and also i'm a graduate of howard university so as a woman in the black you know i'm e

we have kevin in washington d.c. when you began your research on this particular book, it sounds as if you had started with the idea that you would talk about the tour of the mona lisa. but then as time went on, you began to gravitate towards the story about kennedy was the impetus that brought the painting to the united states. can you talk more about at what point and why you decided to take that focus in that direction? >> i was really astounded how involved she really was. i mean, this was not just casually showing up at the exhibition to be photographed alongside the painting. she coordinated pages and pages of details of the negotiations with the french for the paintings safe arrival, all the security precautions. really, a my raid of details that added to the pizzazz and excitement of the paintings arrival and its safety. poor john walker though, can you imagine being interested with caring for france is revered cultural treasure? possibly the most famous painting of all-time. how he stumbled on the story was,

from the bloomberg bureau in downtown washington, d.c. to our tv and radio audiences worldwide, i'm kevin cirilli. >> and i'm taylor riggs from new york. welcome to "balance of power," where the world of politics meets the world of business. we go straight to the world of business with bloomberg's abigail doolittle. how much of this stimulus is really going into the hopes and optimism we see in the markets today? abigail: it is certainly a piece of it. we have synchronized ties for the s&p, the dow, and the nasdaq, and the russell 2000. any flavor of equity, they are climbing higher. a piece of it, that stimulus, the idea the economy is going to have that extra boost of money. but i think the bigger thing happening here is you have this melt up over the entire year out of the march lows, but more recently record high after record high, with a little bit of consolidation. right now we are entering an official santa claus rally, would you have stocks rallying over the last five days of one year into the first two days of the new year. we do

washington d.c. los angeles. is nationwide many many people. love ones financing family bases due to gun violence. we got to go around. trying to calm. the city was create it. happen the park florida after the show. like this national. emergency. this is for us because. things happen in these white schools they get the attention. they get trauma services they get grievance counselors and we're going to get more gun laws and we're going to get more police in our schools in our communities like like we're the ones doing this thing and we've been fighting for 4 against gun violence for years and we're not getting the attention. the thing was we want to make sure that since now this is important to everybody want to make sure we're not left out of the conversation a lot of organizing is led by young people leading the way because they're the ones fighting for the next generation. in 20. years you happened and i decided that i need to go out and actually take some action and i took some friends together and organized a statewide monch against the n.

i live here in d.c.oice of united hospital as a critical access point, you know, is great because it's very hard for folks from minority groups like this who sometimes work two and three jobs to get the time off to go and get vaccinated once or sometimes even twice for some of these different formulations and so the issue of access is just as important as the trust deficit. >> doctor, earlier in the show we were talking about the rollout being a little slower, not meeting certain goals. we've seen vice president elect biden get the pfizer vaccine. we've seen dr. fauci get the moderna vaccine and mike pence get the pfizer vaccine and vice president elect kamala harris getting it. what are your thoughts on seeing the leaders coming out and saying look, we believe this is so safe we'll do it on live television? >> it's really important. it's a big issue. people need to know leaders are willing to take these vaccines. i think it's also emphasized by the doctor it's important for local leaders to take the sam

in d.c. as well, this is the centennial of that coming up next july. i did mention earlier that there was one really good outcome that came out of the war and that is that women got the vote. again, the sacrifice that women made, the contribution women made was so significant. the republicans were the initial big supporters of women getting the boat and eventually president wilson through the democratic parties as well, and thus the 19 amendment -- 19th amendment got passed and women could vote for the first time for the 1920 presidential election. here is alice paul, she was tiny, but she was fierce. tennessee was the 36th state to ratify the 19th amendment. topic iny, my favorite the whole world is prohibition.
