dwight since eisenhower, each president that succeeded dwight eisenhower diminished our enforcement worse and worse and worse, less and less and less. so from dwight eisenhower we ratcheted downhill. and so there were fewer that were deported and less border security under kennedy, under johnson, and under nixon and on down the line. when we got to bill clinton, i was very concerned that he was not paying attention to his responsibility to take care that the laws were faithfully executed and when i look back on what he had to say at the time, he was at least giving lip service to. it unlike hillary clinton who essentially came out and said, we're going to have to give people citizenship, reward them with citizenship for breaking our laws. i recall a time here in about 2004 or 2005, when the immigration debate was ramping up again. they had bused in thousands of -- many of them illegal aliens, i presume. out here in the west -- in the west lawn. and a lot of them had on matching white t-shirts. i remember what they said. senator teddy kennedy was active then. he went out to speak to them,

i've now made a simple tactical decision which is joe mccarthy wanted nothing more than for dwight eisenhower to stand up and say i did not senator joseph mccarthy. eisenhower would never do it and many of his advisers again to despair over his restraint in doing that because he believed more than anything what he wanted was the attention that would come in a face-to-face duel between eisenhower and mccarthy. i couldn't give it to him. you could read the letters he received from a friend who said, you know, mr. president, i feel at the end of the day you're missing an opportunity. and not standing up to this bully. we need your moral authority to weigh in. i think i tortured him and frustrated him. there are moments when he made veiled attacks. don't join the book burners and things like that. but he didn't name him. i think it was a tactical decision that it would destroy the republican party. remember when mccarthy, this is a republican party that is only just started to grow tissues pulling it back together into a unified party. you know, when mccarthy was finally centered, many of you wil

him and the administration, comes out as the outstanding presidential lawyer whose client is dwight eisenhowernd that is all that he cares about. i think that eisenhower very early on contain dulles and and then eisenhower asked a lot of senior officials to think through the options ahead and how do we wage of cold war? stay the same or be really aggressive? i believe in the documentary evidence is there was an exercise by a large designed to defang dulles he keeps saying the world is ending the communists are taking over everywhere spring of 53 he said come up with a plan to wage the cold war differently. he did that it eisenhower said fine. good. straightahead. full speed ahead on what i'm doing anyway. to go the other way would have led to war. it was a way to contain him. time and time again i think that we see eisenhower investing dulles. we see him out on all live then crawling back to get closer to eisenhower. you are interested in the suez crisis that perhaps john foster dulles was playing a double game and wanted the british and the french to overthrow nasa before anything could be do

i appreciate it very much, and i look forward to talking to you about dwight eisenhower. dwight eisenhower was born in 1890. he grew up in abilene, kansas, one of five brothers. his mother and father emphasized the values of personal faith hard work, self-discipline, and , education. he entered west point in 1911 for two reasons, one, to advance his athletic career, and the second, to get a free education. his athletic ambitions were cut short in 1912, when he suffered an injury playing football. the eisenhower, football was a unique sport because he the es a unique sport because he believed it had a transformative effect on people. football, he wrote, instills in men the feeling that victory comes through hard almost , slavish work, team play, self-confidence, and an enthusiasm that amounts to dedication. he would take this concept of football and apply it, quite effectively to military , training. after graduating in 1915, he arrived at fort sam houston and assigned to the 19th infantry regiment. because of tensions with mexico, national guard units were sent to the bor

and first up tonight, here's historian william hitchcock on the presidency of dwight eisenhower.

they told me, when we won the state of wisconsin, it hadn't been won by a republican since dwight d. eisenhower in 1952. did you know that?

i was wondering if you could talk a little bit about dwight eisenhower's reluctance to use nuclear weapons during world war ii? could that have been shaped by his world war i and world war ii experiences? being the commander? i know that he was later -- it was released that classified information that macarthur was not in favor of the use of nuclear weapons in japan as ell. i was wondering if you could talk about his position and stands in regards to nuclear weapons and how his experiences with warfare might have shaped that? prof. dickson: in europe at least, nuclear weapons were not considered, although the manhattan project was intended to develop nuclear weapons for germany. germany surrendered before the weapon was actually capable and could be deployed. so i do not think that was part of eisenhower's thinking. i do not even know if he was ready for the manhattan project. the employment of some colleagues we will talk about, arry truman. ou can ask for further elaboration later on, but i think that the consideration, eisenhower was candidate for president, he threatened the soviet uni

mentioned that in order to provide better relations between the united states and japan, president dwight eisenhower asked the current mayor at the time, george christopher to establish the san francisco socket sister city association. the mission statement of the sister city is very similar to all the other sister city association's. we were attempting to build bridges of friendship and commerce between the two great powers of the pacific rim. san francisco, and osaka. i know that we will continue on despite anything that anybody has said. san francisco and the osaka relationship will continue far into the future. i know everybody is anxious to get to lunch, so i just wanted to mention the other sister cities and their chairs. they are all here. everyone likes to hear their own name. if you would allow me to mention their names, and please, i apologize for the pronunciation. some of these are pretty difficult. anyway, we have frankie gillett. amann jordan. richard r. menino. james hurley. is that correct? >> mayor farrell: german. >> i apologize. kim when. arthur will tell. hannah fleck. christophe

i just look at what happened with world war ii and dwight eisenhower and how he labored under such difficulty to bring together all of these nations to fight and to actually win world war ii. at a time when america wasn't that into these kinds of alliances. and then look at what the past 50, 60, 70 years has brought us. a relative time of peace and prosperity. these nations are our best friends. and it seems like they're just hellbent on destroying that. >>an bremer said i president trump considers the relationship a 10, is it a 1 to 100 scale? 1 being the worst, 100 being the best? max booth wrote this. has me concerned. for "the washington post." i can't stop thinking about this interview unless i'm missing something. these are the most hostile comments any u.s. official has made about any u.s. ally ever. this is tougher than the way u.s. presidents talk about leaders like saddam hussein and sha bashar al assad before we bomb them. the president is going after democrat leaders. not autocratic dictators. who is about to sit down with nice guy kim jong-un. >> and yet he feels as if he deserve

they told me, when we won the state of wisconsin, it hadn't been won by a republican since dwight d. eisenhower in 1952. did you know that? >> stephen: i did not know that because that is not true. ( laughter ) i did not -- i didn't know. that's on me. i didn't know. ( cheers and applause ) >> jon: didn't know it. it's not true. >> stephen: both richard nixon and ronald reagan each won wisconsin twice. and you know who else has won since eisenhower in 1952? eisenhower in 1956! ( laughter ) he's full of these fun facts. trump is like a snapple cap, but that ain't lemonade in there. ( laughter ) but you know what? ( piano riff ) there might be a lot of bad news out there. but we need to focus on those making this a better world-- specifically, a police dog in madrid named poncho who learned c.p.r. there's the officer, pretending to pass out. he's lying there in distress and -- porcho to the rescue! there he is, giving him chest compressions. then, he checks for a pulse, then more chest compressions! checks for a pulse, checks for a pulse. more compressions! more compressions! you can do it, ponch

that is what dwight d. eisenhower said way back when, andor that i think we should remember today. thank you very much, mr. president. i would yield the floor. a senator: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from oklahoma. mr. inhofe: mr. president, some -- i'll wait til later to do that, but i would suggest that the war powers act does specifically say that the president has the power, the very power to enter our troops into combat should it be necessary. what i'd like to do, people are asking me questions and calling up on where are we on t ndaa. i just want to make a few comments about that and give as an exact status as to where we are right now. we said it before but we can't overstate this. this bill, the ndaa is going to pass. we know it's going to pass. it's passed for 57 consecutive years. and it's one that has to pass because this is what -- the most important bill of the year. whrs night we adopted a manager's package of som 45 bipartisan amendments. this is on top of some 300 amendments that we already have gone through in the committee. and i want to say w
