dwight was born in beckly, west virginia. after serving in the united states navy in world war ii, he came back to knoxville and graduated with a degree in industrial engineering. dwight started his political career in 1963 by serving on the old knoxville city council and then as a county clerk and then became the knox county mayor. he worked with organizations including the ymca, the national conference of christians and jews. he was a family member who loved the lord and with a long time member of first baptist church of knoxville where he was a trustee for 15 years. he served as a deacon and faithfully taught sunday school. behind me right here is a picture of all the knox county mayors who went to last year's county budget address. myself, mayor shumpert, mayor jacobs, mayor ragsdale and mayor kessel down there. i know we're proud of the work. my wife and i are praying for dwight's family. he will be greatly missed by those in knox county. with that i yield back the balance of my time, george. the speaker pro tempore: pur

dwight, which way are you leaning early in south carolina? with sarah as far as trump goes. he's got the experience, he's got the season behind him. if you looked at what he's done for the country the first time around, he is definitely -- he has definitely proven himself over and and over again. he does what he says and say what is he does. and with desantis the, i like him too. and being a veteran, you know, with desantis i believe if he was one of the runs -- ones that was in the finals, i would have to, you know, lean more towards him just back another navy veteran. you know? i just think that right now he lacks the experience in the oval office. will: you know, dwight, your opinion is one i feel like that i've encountered on a couple of occasions, and that it's you like desantis, you'd be happy with desantis, but when pressed or persuade or when making a choice, you do end up book towards trump. i feel like that is an opinion i've heard not once, okay? i don't know how often i can say i've encountered that, but in other words, it's this

those young soldiers knew it and their leader, general dwight eisenhower, whose statue so appropriately stands in the rotunda of this sacred building most certainly knew it. he took time from the war effort to visit a camp to see if the reports he had read could possibly be true. when he entered a subcamp of pwaoupbg wald, he realized that they did not even begin to describe what human beings had done to other human beings. eisenhower immediately ordered other allied soldiers to witness the camps. but he did much more. worried that we'll would not believe the truth -- people would not believe the truth, he urged journalists and members of congress to visit the camps and to be witnesses. he hoped that an abundance of firsthand accounts of the atrocities would prevent anyone from ever disbelieving them or attributing them to propaganda. sadly e wrong. very wrong -- sadly, he was wrong. very wrong. today we witness that very charge of propaganda from those who would deny or minimize the holocaust. this amidst rising anti-semitism and racism. those soldiers who fought for our freedom would

i have a feeling to dwight d.isenhower was feeling about his party at that particular time, that is the way i feel about the political party, the republican party as of right now. i believe the american people need to understand the situation as it is. thank you. host: we are in open forum right now. republicans, (202) 748-8001. democrats, (202) 748-8000. independents, (202) 748-8002. let's go to the republican lines. randy is calling from kentucky. caller: good morning. what ironies here. i saw last night where it was reported biden signed off on the doj investigating, indicting trump. now, once you all have his campaign rallies, lock him up, hillary will be on stage with him. throw that piston the air, lock him up. lock him up, lock him up.

and so a young officer dwight d. eisenhower is given command of this funny, it's almost like a mad max movie were all these guys are in tanks and they get bogged down and stuck, but they make it. they almost didn't make it out of utah but they did make it, and it's interesting because of course eisenhower is the president drink the interstate highway system. so that's a good one. but the journey is a great device. i didn't even know what a good device it would be. this project sort of fell into my lap because of disunion, but now i am thinking about others. the wartime journeys of franklin roosevelt's are fascinating. an old man in a wheelchair is going farther than any american president ever has gone. he goes to casablanca. he goes to cairo. he goes to tehran. he goes to yalta. yalta very close to the fighting in ukraine today, and so those are good. i think john f. kennedy's mean journeys, he wasn't president for very long but eu's presidential travel to his advantage. there's one trip where he gets a famous speec

roosevelt's real justification act but electricity to millions of americans in rural america. 70 years ago, dwight eisenhower launched the interstate highway system, the largest infrastructure project to date in history. that was the bipartisan infrastructure and that is what it does. just last week, they announced the plan to bring affordable high-speed internet to end a decade of unaffordable and accessible internet to every home in america. every small business in america. it is no surprise people strenuously opposed voting against it but we had this going on. they said this is going to bankrupt america. it is great to see alabama received article funds to boost ongoing broadband efforts. we are replacing every single leadpipe in this country to put our children's health act correctly. updating our power grid, rating or air force. one of you talked about how important that is for the great lakes as well. last week, i 95 back where i live, you were the east coast, it is one of the most important links of the entire east coast. guess what, a guy hitting -- a guy driving a truck knocked down a who

well, dwight eisenhower was in place of honor, but the other two presidents, interesting enough, were the progressive era presidents. theodore roosevelt and woodrow wilson. well, ford took them down and in their place, and he defined himself surprised people by putting up abraham lincoln, who was a lifelong hero, and harry truman. and lots of people scratch their and wondered why harry truman? well, it turns out they had what common they were both plainspoken midwesterners. harry truman always said his days in the senate, the happiest days of his wife. he loved capitol hill i think more than he did presidency. this was 20 years before david mccullough. so that's when harry truman was still very much out of fashion. they were both what i would call charismatic, challenged. which is to say they very rarely electrified an audience with their rhetorical brilliance. but guess what it didn't matter because they had character, they had decency. and although each of them was quite capable of a being partizan. after all, ford had been republican in the house. the fact is that ultimately they u

rural electrification act bringing electricity to millions of americans of rural america years ago, dwight eisenhower launched the interstate highway system with the largest infrastructure system to date and that's with bipartisan infrastructure law does. it grew air grandkids and kids only bigger and we announced our plan to bring affordable high-speed internet to end a decade of unaffordable and inaccessible internet to every home in america, every small business in america. [applause] it's no surprise we got some converse. people strenuously opposed voting against it when we had this going on. they said this would bankrupt america. a guy named super bowl from alabama -- tuberville who was supposed to legislation and here's what he said -- great to see alabama receive critical funds to boost ongoing broadband efforts. [applause] [laughter] we are replacing every single leadpipe in this country and putting our children's health back. 400,000 schools, 10 million homes.

so, or maybe tell us a bit more then about these allegations and dwight nicholas dudgeon was arrested. well, the allegations uh, part of a, a fairly long running investigation by scottish police begin going since 2021. and what the trying to work out is whether the s and p took about 660000 pounds as about $750000.00. of campaign money that was supposed to be for promising scottish independence and used it for other means that is essentially the, the crux of the investigation. nicholas dash and was arrested. do you want to that about 10 o'clock in the morning and then question for just to have a 7 as released about 5520 in the often noon. she came out but she's putting out a statement on twitter and she says to find myself in the situation i did today with onset not committed, no offences by the shock. and the distressing i intend to be back in parliament soon, where i will continue to represent my clause, guys, south constituents to the very best of my ability has spikes. and also i said that she has consistently said that she would cooperate with this investigation. and that she has

dwight's thought upon the magic. who so kind of a telephone delay in congress and dillman and brazil. how they started caught action against korea who is on definitely the mainly the ecuadorian people. look what they did to castillo as a morales through that qu, in bolivia. and the last one's still fresh, no memory, look what they did to lula. the way he was prosecuted in today's origin, tina therefore i didn't get cushion of them and late because they know that this woman is a key political think i know down the analogy and teen about it, old left america as well. so what we're seeing is nothing but hatred, i'm refreshing campaigns based on lies slammed and side stories about the left wing lead is they have families, friends, and all the people around them. i think the most important thing is that all people understand that this trap has been set for them. all these campaigns of targeting the real protect is of the people, the policies, organizations, institutions, and leaders that have the interest of the people at

and like i said, a big fact finding of the church committee was that presidents like dwight eisenhower pretty much knew what the cia doing. you know, if they didn't know because they want to know. but eisenhower knew that americans were being drugged without their knowledge. and he to use the cia as a force of shadow american power, he didn't want a direct military confrontation with the soviets. so he thought he would use it to subvert, you know, keep the status quo in favor of the western powers, europe and the united states. he used it to stage coups in nine in iran in 1953, guatemala, 1954, congo, 1960, and kind of sought to replace european colonialism with american hegemony and helping him with this were the brothers allen dulles as director of cia and john foster dulles as secretary of state. and neither of these men particularly suited for their jobs. they were and elitist both their uncle and their grandfather had been secretary of state. how elitist they were and were pretty arrogant and had this foreign policy where there was zero room for even negotiate with communists and

dwight joins us now and director of the national pork producer's council.ant pig raising to the changed. they eat a lot of pork. that law means the supreme court said well we have to uphold the law which means that you, sir, have to comply and you have to make these changes and you say it will hurt farmers. >> absolutely, dana. if i could maybe expand a little bit. it wasn't the california voters that decided this. the special interest groups hijacked the ballot initiative process and they duped the california voters by actually putting false information on the ballot. i'll tell you what, we stand shoulder to shoulder with our customers and the great families in california who have long enjoyed the products that we produce for them on our farms. >> dana: what did they say, what is the law now that you are supposed to comply with? >> quite frankly, the law is focused very specifically on the foundational animals in the herd, the mothers. all about the sows who produce the piglets. we care for our mothers from the moment of conception because we embrace conce

>> yeah, at the end of the eisenhower administration, the cia decided -- dwight eisenhower was very interested the cia to try to kill castro. the cia decided that one way they could do it was to form a secret alliance with the mafia. so they had -- they arranged for former fbi agent named bob mayhew who was also on contract with the cia to contact mobsters around the country to see if they would form an alliance to work with the cia to get to cuba and kill castro. so he first contacted johnny roselli, who was a flamboyant mobster both operating in los angeles and las vegas, and roselli then contact sam gioconda who was the boss of the chicago mob. the two of them contacted the mob boss in florida and had long time casino operations in cuba before castro took over. so they went with mayhew to miami beach and set up shop in the fountain blue hotel to try to figure out how to get poisons to somebody close to castro who could kill him. but the plot kind of unraveled very quickly because gioconda had a girlfriend in las vegas, phyllis mcguire, one of the famous mcguire sisters, singing act, and he

now we understand the search area is about dwight the size of connecticut appeared the subis about the size of a minivan. we'll hear from someone who is on the very sub that is missing. miguel mar questioned is in the newfo newfoundland, and what is the lastest you are learning, miguel. >> reporter: look, for as great a concern as oxygen is on the sub, there is great urgency here. they get it, but searchers i've been talking to, they are operating on the assumption that those five people, if they are alive, are conserving their oxygen and may go past the 96-hour limit, basically say that they will figure out, before they do anything else, they will figure out what happened to the titan. rescuers clinging to every sliver of hope. interesting sounds from the ocean depths could be a sign, the sign of life. >> the noises were heard by a canadian p-3. that was this morning and some yesterday. >> reporter: the noise described as banging sounds at regular intervals. in the homeland security briefing, they're described as less specific than that, but still the focus of the search. >> where he

this particular manuscript covers the period see essentially from -- period essentially from 1901 to dwight eisenhower's last day in office. what's fascinating and terrifying is to go through records from the world war i era and see exactly how victimized german americans were and i'm talking about lynchings. i'm talking about murders. all these kinds of things. so i think it's a phenomenon that unfortunately is human. because here you're talking about, you know, one group of essential liangelo americans -- essentially angelo americans prosecuting another group of white americans, a large number of them ultimately, and again it's that foreigner aspect to it, right? so there has to be -- they have to be colluding in some way, right? and i think it's a broader ultimately societal problem. it's just that over the course of the last -- and i would actually go back further. i think the focus on arab and muslim americans easily goes back to the palestinian rights era. i mean, they targeted professor sayid as columbia and so many others. there's an investigation which we don't have time to get int

, for the desert south, west temperatures have been on the up in mexico, the launch, the fine and dwight picture here. lots of heat as well for the likes of cluster we down in the south, but still a very wet picture. but for the west of that rain, we have to look to the bahamas as well as to cuba. we could see some flooding from those torrential downpours over the weekend. some of that rain working its way into jamaica as well that you weather update. the weather brought to you by visit the for children who is saying the crashed and the colombian jungle more than 5 weeks ago. i've been found to like the commentary told. so this is out to say on the from the also in the news reports of heavy fighting an eastern and southern ukraine as russia's presidents claims the counter effects.

can you imagine dwight eisenhower or kennedy or george herbert walker bush every imagining that one of their successors would violate the espionage act. someone on the republican side needs to stand up and say, wait, this is a serious matter. take it seriously, people. >> why aren't they speaking out? why aren't they doing it. >> well i'm not in their heads. jim, i'm an analyst and historian and i follow politics. i think it is the same politics. hoping that either trump will go away or somehow his followers will not do something terrible. the fear, i'm certain among republican leaders, is that if they say too much, this he will push away the people they need in 2024 to deliver the white house. that is to me putting party over country and it is time to put country over party. >> and trump said he won't drop out of the race even if he's convicted. and in your view, i mean, what could the party do? what could the country do? because it sounds as though if you're following this case, and how this process might play out, you know, it is quite possible we may not see this fully adjudicated

american people know about the existing accountability mechanisms including third-party monitors such as dwight and the robust oversight being conducted by congress. in particular this committee. when republicans took the majority we made it very clear accountability will be paramount to continued assistance in ukraine. this is just the first of many hearings and briefings i will hold to ensure the assistance we are providing is being used as intended. of the $113 billion propose rated across four supplementals, approximately 60% is going to american troops, american workers, and the modernizing of american stockpiles. in fact, only 20% of the funding is going directly to the ukrainian government in the form of direct budgetary assistance. as required by law these funds are only disbursed to ukraine following verification that the money is spent on approved items and activities. all funds are subjected to external third party monitoring by deloitte. they are conducting randomized spot checks to verify the use of this assistance. additionally they are working with ukraine's ministry of finance t

can you imagine if dwight eisenhower had been reckless about secrets? people would have died.r ii, it allowed us to were in world war ii. but if we had a president like fdr who said, well, i'm just going to leave some sensitive documents in my bathroom next to the twilight, and if somebody happens to go in there and happens to be an agent of a foreign power. and gets to a hostile country, too bad. we would never have leadership like this, ever before. donald trump is in a category of his own. >> nixon comes the closest. but what he was trying to purloin and keep from himself, was evidence of his own criminality. of his own criminal conduct. the idea with donald trump is that he thought that really high level national security information from multiple agencies. from the department of defense, to the cia, belong to him. because it was briefed to him while he was president. and the arrogance of that, and taking things that belong to the united states and saying it's mine, mine, mine. it is a level of sociopathy that i don't think i've ever read about. and there have been some pr

railroad electrification act brought electricity to millions of americans in rural america 70 years ago dwight eisenhower launched the interstate highway system, the largest infrastructure project to date in history that's what the bipartisan infrastructure law does. it will be for our kids and grandkids, only bigger just last week we announced our plan to bring affordable high speed internet to end the decade of unaffordable and inaccessible internet to every home in america. every small business in america. and to no one's surprise -- and to no one's surprise it's bringing along some converts people strenuously opposed, voting against it when we had this going on. this was going to bankrupt america. well, there is a guy named tuberville, senator from alabama, announcing he strongly opposed the legislation, now he's hailing its passage here is what he said, quote, it's great to see alabama receive critical funds to boost ongoing broadband efforts. we're replacing every single lead pipe in this country and putting our children's health back directly. 400,000 schools, 10 million homes. we're fi

he alleged that president dwight david eisenhower and most of the u.s.der secret communist mind control. he even opposed adding fluorine to the nation's water supply, also part of the communist plot to control our minds through an involuntary medical experiment. at its peek, the john birch society had more than 100,000 member. so what does this all have to do with barry goldwater's most infamous line? well, at the time, despite the birchers' growing popularity based on their anti-communist and evangelical zeal, conservative leaders like richard nixon and william f. buckley rallied to boot them out of the party. but goldwater knew he needed those bircher votes. the group had endorsed his candidacy. hence, the extremism in the defense of liberty red meat. american voters weren't so keen on it, though, and their association of him with the birchers arguably contributed to goldwater's landslide defeat and the purge from the republican party of that particular brand of extremism. except it never actually went away. their ideas are still thriving among the mod
