and i really didn't realize how much i didn't know about president eisenhower and i knew general eisenhower. i was committed to doing this thing, starting this process. so i went to abilene. i talked to them about a good book. there's so many books. eisenhower. what what do you think would be good? and they told me the three days of him kind of finishing his presidency to, kennedy's inauguration, i said, well i need somebody to help me research. and they said, our best researcher is a woman named sidney soderberg, who is the former mayor. salina, kansas, next door. and i met her and she said, i'm really interested in this book. i think it could be really good and i'm going to find you nuggets that you've never seen before and like little treasures. and she was so fired up about it. so i got fired up about and she said, but i have to tell you one thing. and i said, what is that? she said, i'm a true blue kansas democrat. i watch show, but i'm a true blue kansas democrat. and i said, well, first of all, thanks for watching and second of all, that's good because i'm a news guy trying to write

eisenhower.hat's the front picture on that book. and they're walking at camp david up the path and kennedy turns to eisenhower and says, you know, i just didn't know it was going to be this tough. and eisenhower turns and said, with due respect, mr. president, i told you exactly this. four months ago. so i think that that leadership quality is to become in your own skin as a leader, to be able to hear even vicious differences is argued in front of and then make a decision. yeah, that's great. so whenever you write a book, yo know myself, i change, i learn things. did your perspective on the past change at all by writing this book or about washington , i learned a lot more contextual history about him. the man, you know, in hear about i did not tell a lie which arguably is a lie. you know i'just a story to make him sound pretty in the big picture but nobody can point back to that moment when he in school and he says that and i think that there was this there is this need and want to make him like

eisenhower.ven presidents have to retire. who can step into his shoes? many think this is the man, eisenhower's vice president for eight years... ...richard milhous nixon. richard nixon is well known to the american people. nixon's not scared of the russians, as soviet premier nikita khruschev finds out at a moscow trade fair. [man] it wasn't supposed to be much. it was supposed to be just a meeting. but it turned into a confrontation. there must be a free exchange of ideas. capitalism versus communism. [indistinct] back and forth and back and forth, jabbing with the fingers. the words didn't matter. it was the images that mattered. [naftali] 'he was presidential.' he seemed ready for the white house. meanwhile, traveling through the bleak wisconsin landscape, there is another man who believes he's destined for the white house. he's young, he's inexperienced, and he's almost unknown.

i've got my eisenhower center. i'll give you my oral histories and all we need is $1,000,000 and you heard that we we missed by a little bit. i thought it was 4 million. and there are a few zeros after that. now that over 400 million. but in any let me just look have steve. who it was a world war and half of it was in the pacific that's significance of the pacific theater we have built this museum the people new orleans the people of louisiana people from all over the world. it began my backyard when. i was having a sherry with nick and i received quite a few from the men that i had been interviewing for a book on d-day. i said, nick, we got to build a museum to hold style. i can't keep storing it in my would cause over anyway and that's how i got started and arthur davis. the famous architect, said i'll tell you, we talked and got going and arthur said, you've got to charley guggenheim to make a film for you and we did. and he said, and you got to get jack macy as the he had met jack when they were working on the

eisenhower looked at in korea a. simple mission you're not asking taiwanese to invade the mainland you're not asking taiwanese forces to to another area. they're going to be defensive. they're going to be holding the beaches, so to speak. they're going to be dug in. they're going to be have hardened, hardened logistics facilities. and part of that was if the taiwanese are holding up of this defensive posture, the us personnel are going to mainly be providing instruction and. that's a key point, probably for deterrence. i think in our current era, how do we maintain deterrence for a long period of time? china is probably not going to go away in five or ten years. in the 1950s, they recognized that this was a perhaps generational challenge. it's not enough to train a soldier in south korea, in taiwan, because in two years, in three years, they will a civilian. you have to create an institution. you have to create an institution that is to change, that is going to adapt as decades pass, and that the majority of the u.s.

those are the code and cipher books that enable general eisenhower to succeed fully launch operation torch. and of course, who else could lead it but george patton. but we need to go to georgetown. we didn't go to northwest africa. we can go six miles up the road to arlington hall on route 50. and collins brings road. it was girls finishing school as they were knowhat time, taken over by army signal intelligence. and here yld signal or the old signal school as it was when it was a girls finishing school. there's beenk written about that calledls highly recommended. now they would work three in three shifts of 8 hours each a roun clock, seven days a week, 365 days a year. obviou they weren't. congressional people on capitol hill with their schedule. these very dedicated individuals, mwomen, because women are much more patient overall than men and have a much more heightened sense of detail than most men. these are generalized options, yes. but basically troop now on your right side is a photograph of a separate section that work there because virginia was completely segregated at the

we just to support my eisenhower center. but if you decide it's you need the tourists and we think you do because it'll be an attraction and we don't want to spend this time money if we don't have tourists. it ended up then going downtown. we had a lot of disappointments. during the first five or six years we were supposed to open in 1994. that didn't happen. we did have academy award winning a nominated film, the top five. they remembered a great, great film. and we had a big premiere of that. then we all went off. steve went off, briefed the white house gang, the clintons and christopher white, all going to normandy for d-day. we're with tom brokaw, 500 people on a tour ship for a full day in 94 was a really a moving moment. i've been there many with steve, but that was a powerful, powerful moment. and tom brokaw had steve on stage all day long. was katie on d-day on those commemoration events and brokaw look, you can talk about the d-day museum building anytime you want, you know, so steve did i thought, oh, man, you know

and general eisenhower, our leader in the program will touch on that very thing greatly others think alike. they see the big picre picture. our first film,al, is an american lady from minneapolis, mia, ota, which is how my family it, because that's where they're from. this is called cynthia. cynthia was the nom de gue of of amy elizabeth for born in 1910. she is awood central casting model, tall, blond hair. they said she had the piercing emerald green eyes. anyone saw. she was fearless. she apso lutely was fearless. there wasn't. she wouldn't go or anything wouldn't do to achieve her goals, which were espionage. she comes here to washington, a teenager. she comes becomes very fluent and linguistics. and she's bitten by potomac fever. probably the most deadly fever in the history of mankind. she goes over to spain during the spanish war in the 1930s. and she becomes deeply involved with british espionage in during their civil war. she then goes to for special operations executive mr. churchill's little plaything of spies in occupied europe. in the beginning of the war in vichy france

he started work in the civil rights division, the justice department, during the eisenhower administration, and stayed on and is somebody who didn't shrink from the most difficult work, including accompanying james meredith to register for classes, become the first black american student at the university of mississippi. there was a terrible riot that. he spent the night in james meredith's dorm room. and a year later there was an event that became burned in everyone's. it was june 15th. it was after the assassination of medgar evers in, mississippi. and evers funeral took place in jackson. and there was a lot of concern that that was going to result in more violence because there were marchers who wanted to protest beyond the funeral and there were a set of racist police officers who were eager to bust some heads. and in the breach, standing in between those two people, those two sets of people was john dore and i want to read a little vignette from a book called the race beat. and it was about press coverage of the civil rights movement. and it talked about that in tense moment. some of

, i learned a lot about eisenhower as a general. i don't know about him as a president. i'm in the same relationship with washington. they are quite similar in some ways despite the fact that they are completely different in their backgrounds. their leadership skills overlap in certain fundamental ways. they have a good eye, both of them for subordinate talent. they have executive minds, organized for executive action. they are very articulate. both orally and in writing. with think of eisenhower as this mumbling --. he is not that. churchill at one point says after he has listened to eisenhower says, good generals do not usually have such powers of expression as he has. washington is the same way. you never come away from a session with washington without any doubt about what the commanders intent is. so, the clarity of their thinking, the clarity of their expression, their physical durability. washington never seems to catch a cold over the course of 18 years. not physically accurate, but he is very durable. eisenhower, despite sm

i mention the eisenhower -- the eisenhower carrier strike group. of course there's the aircraft carrier, the eisenhower. there are two, three other ships associated with that, one cruiser and two destroyers. and four fighter jet squadrons. you have a helicopter squadron, electronic warfare squadron. so all of those just here dealing with this threat from the houthis in yemen. and then more broadly, anderson, this whole area of command as it's known in the middle east falls under u.s. central command. the biggest base there for the u.s. central command is right here in doha, and then you've got the u.s. fifth fleet that patrols the seas. that is based right here in bahrain. and then, anderson, you have thousands and thousands of u.s. troops who are all across the region here in saudi arabia, here in kuwait, here in iraq and jordan. and so if this were to escalate, it's not like the eisenhower is on its own dealing with the houthis. you also have all these u.s. forces, all these u.s. assets and bases across the region ready to spnld. ag the u.s. goal

the eisenhower library sutra gathering these primary source documents. that's half of it. and the other half is interviewing those who knew the nixon so those particularly who knew mrs. nixon. and julie eisenhower and tricia nixon cox have both been so wonderful sharing their memories with me. and it is so critical that you talk people directly who knew that person and i preferably in person, spend a lot of time traveling so i can meet with people who knew the subject and i got to give the east wing a shout out mrs. nixon's posse. they love mrs. nixon and they have all been so wonderful to me and so without the women, since, you know, i'm really focused on mrs. nixon and women's history, they really know going on they were watching. they observed relationships that is crucial. and i in person is always the best but when that failed due to covid telephone calls emails texts you know whatever takes to get the story while second that it's better talking to somebody in person than over the phone or you know some other venue so indeed indeed well he you know, i have to close it

eisenhower is pat nixon the untold story. all three of these works are set to be released next year, paul carter writes in his preface, quote, i am a trial attorney. i am quite aware that speak louder than words and. i know the thoroughness required to assemble evidence presenting it layer by layer until the full story emerges. that's what i've done with richard nixon. california's native son. and now it's time for you to be the judge. without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, please join in welcoming paul carter. thank you. thank you, jim. thank you to all of the incredible staff here for putting this evening together. i really appreciate it. and, you know, let's just get started. richard nixon as california's native son, he was born hearing linda in a house. his father built a few steps where i'm standing. he was raised in whittier and graduated whittier college. and then went off to duke law school. we're all pretty much familiar with that aspect of his life and that story. but now i'm going to tell you the all-american s

so dwight eisenhower is the president in question.nd i think his football story at west point is pretty well known. there have literally been books written about dwight eisenhower playing against jim thorpe, the real all-american. this, you know, some some really fascinating stuff about eisenhower's college career. but he tore his knee that same season and never played football again. he became a football coach just kind of on a volunteer basis, both at west point coaching junior varsity. and then once he arrived at fort sam houston down in texas, he coached local high school, a local college. now, during war football, we don't know for sure whether he coached in 1917 or 1918 at one of the many stateside assignments that he had. he was at camp colt for a while in pennsylvania. he probably did a little bit of coaching there, but he most definitely during the national guard mobilization of the winter of 1916, 1917, he definitely coached a team from the 12th division, all stars which were based in fort sam houston, where eisenhower was a

eisenhower is now stationed in the north of the red sea. before this, the last appearance of aircraft carriers was 3 years ago. at any point where the enemy is concentrated. 3 years ago, the irgc has added more than 820 speedboats with carbon hulls to its navy with various missiles in ranges of 20 to 400 km. according to the commander of the irgc navy, this force will continue to increase its power to further protect the strait of hormuz and the persian gulf. yunus shalou , chief reporter of the bandas novo news agency , martyred abu mehdi al-mohand. in response to south africa's action in filing a complaint with the international criminal court and submitting a request to initiate measures against israel for committing genocide genocide has been committed against the palestinian nation. medical services with the destruction of hospitals and health centers, which guarantees for israel that many wounded will die due to not receiving medical services. fourth: the spread of diseases with the destruction of medical infrastructure, along with th

and eisenhower despite smoking a pack of cigarette a day is the same. and he's projects robustness on the ship. things are very dark for washington in particular and they're dark for eisenhower at points. to have the sense that tomorrow we have to go at them again. e neither of them. neither washington nor eisenhower particularly good. tactical leader. they don't see the way the way our three generals do here. they're not napoleon. they have seasons of great confidence but they're not great strategists. in washington's case the ability to get up the next morning and keep on doing it. he writes a letter. you and i talk about this. he writes a letter in 1880. he sends the letter to his home in washington. his cousin is an overseeing. things are pretty dark in the summer of 1880. you asked what will be my reward for all of this. and i'm paraphrasing now, he says, it's the certain knowledge that i have done my best. that i have left it all out there. and that if this enterprise, the war, is not successful, it will not be because of any want of effort on my

according to the uk ministry of defense, us fighter jets from the carrier uss eisenhower participated in monday strikes for raf typhoons supported by pair of voyager tankers joined the us forces. yemen's ansarullah officials state that the american british aggression is not new and has persisted since 2015 vowing retaliation against any western attacks. new strikes by american and british forces were lauched while the yemani armed forces have warned against new aggression against the arab country, yemany people as well as political analysts suggest that continuous western attacks will not de naval operations against israeli linked vessels in the red sea reporting for press tv. earlier in our explainer program we elaborated on recent strikes on yemen by the us and uk and how they'll impact the global economy. tensions in the red sea d the us-israely genocidal war on the gaza strip have been exacerbated by the us, especially after attacking yemen, along with the uk twice, by militarizing the red sea region, the global economy is suffering as a result. first, the so-called coalition agai

now to what extent the uss eisenhower korea star coop was used, we do not know. it has been in the region to try and deter any regional actors including the houthis and iran from expanding the conflict we are seeing currently between israel and hamas. the houthis warning they would retaliate against any international strikes, and the u.s. saying they and their partners are prepared for that. in the wake of their strike, saying this may not be the last word in terms of military action against the houthis. alex marquardt, cnn, washington. >> now the u.s. says more than 50 countries have been affected by dozens of houthi attacks in recent months. a number of companies including the danish shipping giant merck have been diverting their vessels away from the red sea, and taking the long way around the southern tip of africa. that adds thousands of nautical miles to the, journey and causes weeks of delays in shipping times. all of that adding up to a major potential threat to the world economy. >> we are very focused on the economic side, on monitoring the potential af

larry: since eisenhower.irst of are all, former attorney general, matt, how would this work, can you think through it? i don't need a 10-point plan but generally speaking. >> yeah. well, two p components, you have to imminent the migrant protection protocol, remain in mexico. to get the asylum system back working with only the legitimate claims are filed on those here illegally, prioritize, the violent criminals and terrorists those already in jail, but you have to use the secure border to then roll people off, with i.c.e. to major cities and help you k know remove the people that should not be here and never come in. you also you know other thing on that plan would be end the sanc sanctuary cities and push back on cities thatten don't allow the i.c.e. operations. larry: matt whitaker. president referses to eisenhower plan. he had a general or a couple of generals who were organizing the return of some of the mexican illegals who got in in the 1950s, ike was tough on that, ike a former great general himself.

eisenhower is now stationed in the north of the red sea. before this, the last appearance of aircraft carriers was 3 years ago. at any point where the enemy is concentrated. since 3 years ago, the irgc has added more than 80 speedboats with carbon hulls with various missiles in ranges of 20 to 400 km. according to the commander of the irgc navy, this force continues to increase its strength to further protect the strait of hormuz and the persian gulf will continue. yunus shalo, reporter. if this piece of a few centimeters is not there, the control of the satellites in space will be disrupted. the digital solar sensor is one of the types of sensors used in satellites, which has the task of determining the angle of the sunlight vector with respect to the satellite body and controlling it in its own orbit. until recently, digital solar scanners were on the list of banned products and hardly reached iran , but its young researchers. danesh banyan company rolled up its sleeves for its localization, and the result was the production of a new gene

there are six of them, as will appear here, as you can see, the biggest one being uss dwight eisenhower aircraft carrier. the uk involvement, much more limited in assets and strike. deployment-wise, one destroyer deployed in the region. in both attacks, the uk deployed british typhoon jets like from its uh airbase in cyprus, to target yemen. interestingly, four british fighter jets were used in each instance. in the first attack, over 60 targets were hit in two rounds, which involved some casualties, and in both attacks, types of targets hit were things like command and control notes, munition. launching systems, production facilities and air defense radar systems, but the damage on the yeemeni army's assets was minimal, unlike what the us tried to portray. even the new york times reported after the first attack that much of houti's offensive ability remained intact after us-let air strikes, saying identifying targets proved to be a challenge. let's underline that last part that it was a challenge. one of the intended targets of the us and the uk was the yemani army's ample supply of mi
