davis' family moved south soon after davis' birth. they moved to louisiana and then over to mississippi. davis grew up mostly in mississippi. although, he returned to kentucky a couple times both for educational reasons. he went to boarding school in kentucky and then later to transylvania university in kentucky before going off to the u.s. u.s. military military academy at west point. lincoln, by contrast, spent whatlincoln, by contrast, spent about the first seven years of his life in kentucky until his you parents moved to indiana, which is where lincoln grew up. 20 he didn't move to illinois until he was 21. below davis, on the mantle, are various things that were made by confederate prisoners of war in union prison camps, out of anything they could find, shells, wood, bones, glass, and whatever they could pick up in those northern prison camps. throughout roughly the middle two years of the war tharks was a regular prisoner exchange service. many confederate prisoners who had been exchanged for union prisoners would come through

davis, he resents it. this is his wife talking. , my husbando said does not understand the art of politics and would not practice them if understood. that relates to what i was saying earlier. was aclear davis top-notch u.s. secretary of war. what she was getting at was he did not clear dust in a care for the politicking. he was not that kind of man. he was not the kind of politician. he did not do it. i hope that gives some feeling leastis' character, at out of the arena with other men. it is clear with people considered his social inferiors, women, children, black people, he was very generous, kind, tolerant, indulgent, even. other men come he could be sharp. our next room is the bedroom. it was shared by jefferson davis and his wife. that was little unusual for this time period because it wealthy married couple would tend to have a separate beds and bedrooms. as we have seen, jefferson davis converted the other bedroom to his office. so he and his wife shared this office and this bed. the mattress is mo

it may have been michael cohen or lanny davis.i think we learned from rudy giuliani there are some people at which people are past their prime. and whatever talents lanny davis had 10 or 20 years ago may not be in effect now. listen, he's been dealt a cruddy hand, and he's trying his best to throw up enough dirt and enough confusion, which is exactly what trump's side is doing. so in that regard at least he has company. >> jennifer, thank you. tim o'brien, thank you for staying with us throughout this hour. of course brian has much more on this breaking news story in the "the 11th hour" with brian williams, and that starts right now. >>> the breaking news we're covering tonight, the cohen-trump audio recording released by the cohen team tonight on prime time television. you'll hear the president's voice for yourself, especially the one word he uses which motivated this leak. also the president today speaking to vetvens suggesting an alternative truth. he tells them what you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening

are you confident, mr davies?wo years, he has been the man in brussels, leading the negotiations with the european union that would shape the uk's future outside it. at the prime minister's country residence on friday, where theresa may's top team gathered to hear her final plan, he was, in his words, the odd man out. it would put the uk ona the odd man out. it would put the uk on a path to close to the eu for his liking. the driving was primarily from number 10, rather than my department. that is fair enough, it is not the first time there has been a debate by a goal margin. as you say, i lost the argument. it's not just that i lose the argument in something which is in somebody else's department, the point is that i was the person who had two presented to parliament, to the european union, to everybody else. ifi european union, to everybody else. if i don't believe in it, i won't do as good a job at somebody that does. in his resignation letter, he said the current trade policy and tactics was making it less and

this is not about the departure of one man, david davis.the negotiations. arguably for decades. that is what is broken out. however the prime minister tries to play it, this isn't about one man had not been able to live with the compromise on friday. it is actually about something that goes to the heart of the problem which is this division. i think that after the referendum the prime minister made a fundamental mistake because, instead of trying to bring the country together, she issued very hard red lines which made negotiations extremely difficult and she has never really recovered from that. let's get more on the use about the new brexit secretary. david davis resigned last night saying he is no longer the best person. good morning. there is only one talking point at westminster and that is a resignation of david davis and the implications and the potential for further resignations and the new appointment and a further appointment and a further appointment to come because steve baker also resigned last night. i haven't yet who is replac

david davis was at the forefront of all those negotiations.all the ministers gathered together at the ministers gathered together at the uk prime minister's summer residence chequers and went over what we called a policy document do what we called a policy document do what they came out with were the proposals that theresa may would ta ke forward proposals that theresa may would take forward to the eu to say this is how we want our future relationship with the eu to look like. what they wanted was unity on these matters. and she was harsh about it in the sense that like it or lump it, if you do not toe the line then resigned. and here we see the first very high profile resignation in her cabinet. and now, of course, in the next few hours we will blow over this, whether this house of cards collapsing around her. ringing you some information that theresa may has responded to david davis's resignation letter, still waiting to get the contents of that letter and his exact words but she says he disagrees with david davis's characterisation of brexi

david davis was teetering a while ago.s actually resigned, he has threatened to resign a few times. iam has threatened to resign a few times. i am glad he has come to this decision. why didn't he resigned on friday? he has effectively gone into chequers, signed up as a member of cabinet to collective responsibility that this is the negotiating plan the government will use going forward , the government will use going forward, and we get to sunday night and he has changed his mind. i am surprised he effectively signed up to it, allowed the impression to go out that the cabinet was united around it, and hours before the prime minister is due to make a statement in the house of commons and crucially met her mps to sell the plan, he has resigned. my first thought is that i don't think it will have the impact he thinks it will have the impact he thinks it will have. i think he thinks it will bring down the government and start a chain reaction in which michael gove and boris johnson a chain reaction in which michael gove and bo

tonight, david davis and boris johnson are still in post.david davis and borisjohnson are no longer in government, having expressed their strong dislike of the brexit strategy. in mrjohnson‘s case that dislike asman expressed this evening in the strongest terms. how secure is mrs may? word is at leave the uk approach to the last phase of the brexit talks? laura kuenssberg is back. let's focus on the prime minister's own position. how do you read it? there are two competing theories. one is this day looks like a complete fiasco. you have a group of d oze ns a complete fiasco. you have a group of dozens of tory rebels adamant privately they are going to do everything in their power to stop this chequers compromise brokered at the end of last week from going ahead. dark mutterings about threats of more ministers walking out. we don't know how committed they are to that. how seriously are they going to try to take any potential moves against theresa may. the competing theory is, well, this has been a very rocky day. but actually, theresa may may

will she replace david davis, and if so, with her?stion that michael gove will be the sort of replacement of david davis and he has put himself out there as the brexiteer that remainers can work with, which is a convoluted sort of statement. most of this is about how civil servants negotiate between each other and mr davies's nose was put out ofjoint because the chief was moved into number ten, away from him. ithink was moved into number ten, away from him. i think this is really down to bureaucrats to sort out. i think thatis bureaucrats to sort out. i think that is where it will go. it was a lwa ys that is where it will go. it was always going to be a soft and not a ha rd always going to be a soft and not a hard brexit, which is what the brexiteers wanted, and i think we will get more of that going forward. we will look through the other stories in our news briefing and the media's analysis of what some are calling disarray in government, as david davis resigns as brexit secretary. we will be live to brussels to get reaction to all

here's a david davis protege and if anything he is more hardline than david davis.s. i don't believe for a minute that dominic raab believes in this negotiating position. he may be a little more inscrutable than david davis are not have the sort of economy that david davis has. when he sits opposite michel barnier is he going to believe what he is saying? i find, i struggle to believe it. where do we go from here, do you think?” struggle to believe it. where do we go from here, do you think? i think it's difficult. the government made a promise on the irish border and vote leave made a promise on the irish border that cannot be reconciled with a proper brexit. you have to have regulatory and custom circuitry. they have another problem with what happens in terms of our freedom to strike trade deals, which can be reconciled with that and it has an unwillingness and seemingly inability to either understand that trade off, let alone communicate it to anyone else and at some point you assume those incompatible positions will have a head—on collision of the big deal to me

i asked lanny davis and he rightly skirted the question. he said, i've got my own privilege issues with my client, michael cohen, i can't answer that. if you play it again, he says, no, we have to get all of the things, and then they have the discussion of a, god forbid something happens to mr. pecker. so it wasn't just one thing. what other things do they have? >> we have to put up a response, so here's what the trump team is saying of what he said on tape. >> this is their version of the transcript. they said, this is the transcript. >> they're saying he said, well, are you going to pay him with something? then donald trump said, don't pay him with cash, check. and he says, no, no, no, i got it. nowhere in there does it say michael cohen says cash. >> michael cohen never says cash in what i hear -- >> check, rather. you hear him say check. >> i never hear michael cohen say cash or check. i hear donald trump say cash and check. the trump organization has this argument that he was talking about a way to pay for things and not green money. t

two other ministers resigned along with mr davis. he says the prime minister's plans will undermine negotiations with brussels and that the uk parliament would not win back powers from brussels after brexit. so does he have a point? well, here are the key points of what was agreed. the uk will "maintain a common rulebook for all goods" with the eu, including agricultural products, after brexit. a treaty will be signed to avoid friction at the uk—eu border, including northern ireland. a so—called "joint institutional framework" will interpret uk—eu agreements. cases will still be referred to the european court ofjustice to interpret eu rules. the borders between the uk and eu will be treated as a "combined customs territory". the uk would apply domestic tariffs and trade policies for goods intended for the uk, but charge eu tariffs for goods heading into the eu. the plan says it will end the free movement of people, "giving the uk back control over how many people enter the country." a "mobility framework" will be set up to allow uk a

governmentstates always maintains that lee and davis were committing treason. thecle three of constitution was where the crime of treason was defined. it is the only crime defined in the constitution. after the civil war, the president of the united states, andrew johnson, the chief justice of the supreme court and the attorney general of the united states and a hetero judge in virginia all for felt that treason had been committed and that the confederate leaders needed to be punished. so we have to be careful of the when we thinkim about the united states government decision on this. that is something we are often forgetting. , andrewg worth noting johnson was a southerner from tennessee and james was from kentucky. underwood froze -- underwood was from virginia but he was a northerner. he had moved to virginia as an adult and had been a tutor. that is how he met his wife. that is one part of this missing legal case that i think we have to consider. some people might make the case that, we did forget but maybe it was a good ring to move on and reconciliation w

are you confident today, mr davis?d has been the uk's man in brussels, leading the negotiations with the european union that would shape the uk's future outside it. but at the prime minister's country residence on friday, where theresa may's top team gathered to hear her final plan, he was, in his own words, the odd man out. it put the uk on a path to a relationship far too to close to the eu for his liking. the drive in the last week in this white paper was primarily number 10, rather than my department. that's fair enough, it's not the first time that's been a debate by a long margin. as you say, i lost the argument. the point being, it's notjust that i lose the argument in something which is in somebody else's department, orsomething that is general collective responsibility, the point is that i was the person who had to present it to parliament, to the european union, to everybody else. if i don't believe in it, i won't do as good a job at somebody that does believe in it. in his resignation letter, david davis sai

, and presumably, they would go after -- they had davis, trygo after davis first, and presumably, lee would have been second. they would have tried him next. one thing i will say about this, too, that i think is sort of interesting is the case against davis, and then, of course, against all of the confederates, broke down because the attorney general, i think, felt he was doing the right thing and believed that treason should be tried by a jury in a traditional court and not only that, but treason needed to breach right in the location where it was committed. in this case, virginia. if we stop and think for a second, how easy or difficult to you think it would have been to try jefferson davis and robert e. lee in a richmond courtroom made up of ordinary virginians after the civil war? i think the union propagators look at the odds of being successful in trying such a case and realized, "all we need is one to think that treason has not been committed, and we would lose." for his part, underwood felt probably that having an african-american jury might improve the odds for a successful p

and, you know, the hiring of lanny davis, you don't hire lanny davis if you want to be quiet and lay low. you hire lanny davis if you want to be on television and you want to get your side out and you want a fight on cable news. and so, yeah, whether or not that's ultimately good for michael cohen, i don't know. but lanny davis' book subtitle is "tell it all, tell it first and tell it yourself." and here they told it second. >> cynthia, let me walk you over to the edge of professional courtesy and ask about mr. cohen. we note his name is not on any of the short lists for the supreme court. what kind of lawyer is or was he? >> oh, mr. cohen is the kind of lawyer that you hire if you want to do dirty back room deals, if you want someone to help to skirt the law with you. that's why donald trump picked him. he could have picked laurence tribe, but he didn't. he picked michael cohen and he did it for a reason. now, he's going to pay. it's the old classic saying, if you lie down with the dogs, you get up with the fleas. >> wow. i want badly to end on that word, but phil rucker, one more q

i asked lanny davis about that and he said i can't answer that question, don. there's a reason i keep saying the truth is on our side. he says. and who most wants to hear the truth from michael cohen? i have to leave that unanswered. what do you think about that statement? >> don, you know, look, i think lanny is a very good attorney, but i think he's playing a game, him and michael cohen with the public. i mean there's nothing stopping michael cohen from coming clean right now, disclosing all of this information and all of these tapes. there was nothing stopping michael cohen from issuing a statement tonight about what really happened during this meeting. you know, i mean, lanny was hired to do one thing and he wasn't hired to represent michael cohen before the southern district. that's mr. parillo's job. he wasn't hired to represent him in defending our cases. that's mr. blakely's job. lanny was brought in to change the narrative and push the reset button about the optics related to michael cohen. you know what, lanny may be able -- he may be a good makeup ar

davis was one of the big obstacles to soft brexit.ket was keener perhaps on that closer relationship with the european union. he's now gone. theresa may was making this gamble that she could afford to lose the likes of mr. davis or mr. johnson because the numbers in the conservative party are not there to unseat her. they may be there to challenge her leadership, but probably not unseat her. maybe the government is more unsecure when -- then you think. i think that's for collected in the market. guy: thanks very much indeed. david merritt joining us. take a look at this chart. this is volatility. we are, when you look at sterling, barely pricing any price action. this is an indication of how the market sees the brexit story via the prism of the cable rate. the long-term average on this over the charts we've got here, 7.77. it's currently trading 7.35, so below average. the market isn't pricing any fireworks. is the market misreading this story? the cio of investment management joins us on set. your thoughts? guest: my perspective is w

talk about who lanny davis is. and what he could potentially do with somebody like michael cohen. >> yeah. lanny davis is an expert, steve, in navigating the washington scandal culture and the washington media political culture. he has done that effectively going back to bill clinton and his impeachment scandal. and with other clients. and he doesn't necessarily have ideological rigidity. might consider a democratic capital d sensibility. he has invited steve bannon the former trump white house adviser to debate. steve bannon when he was in the white house and trying to advise donald trump on how to navigate the then unfolding mueller probe, he reached out to lanny davis to pick his brain about it. so a recognized expert in this. and one showing a willingness to work. >> michael cohen has been under taking in public recently, the abc news interview, changing his profile. public image strantegy. do you read lanny davis is somebody who can navigate the court of public opinion or court of law? >> both. lanny davis is

i think it's clear -- >> my apology, senator feingold first, then senator davis. >> hello, senator davis. >> the stakes couldn't possibly be higher. what we have here is the united states supreme court is really changing its character. first of all, it was stolen. this whole seat was stolen, the scalia seat. after that, you have a president who wasn't even elected by the majority of the americans being able to pick that replacement instead of barack obama. now, you have the president picking more people when he's under investigation for probably legal activity before and after he became president. what we really have is the united states supreme court is becoming a kangaroo court. the definition of a kangaroo court is a court where the outcome is predetermined. >> senator davis, as we look at the supreme court where many activists are gathering tonight, i want to play for you the person who has become the shadow president in the trump era when it comes to these appointments. not a household name but so important, leonard leo, runs the federalist society. what i'm saying may sound like a
