a pro-slavery mob had set out to destroy the printing presses of an abolitionist publisher named elijah lovejoy. the mob raided a warehouse, burned a building and murdered lovejoy. according to lincoln's friend, the future president was revolted by the episode. that murder influenced lincoln's first published address. he gave a speech a prophetic title. the perpetuation of our political institutions. he spoke about the necessity of the rule of law. lincoln recognized that adherence to the rule of law is what makes self-government possible. if people reject their responsibility to obey the law, political institutions may collapse. and lincoln offered two vivid examples to illustrate his point. the first involved the death by hanging of people that lincoln referred to as, and i quote, regular gamblers. i don't know what other type there were. [applause] regular gamblers. these were a set of men, certainly not following a very useful or very honest occupation. those are lincoln's words. in his words, those gamblers were worse than useless and their execution in an abstract matter was never

members of his american nazi party met with representatives of the nation of islam, which was led by elijah mohamed at that time. because whites were a large numerical majority in the country at thattime, the early white separatist assumed that the vast amount of territory in the united states would be reserved for the white population. blacks would be given a relatively small territory, perhaps in the american south to build a so-called new africa. the status of other racial minorities because they were numerical numerically negligible -- so grew out of the failure of the larger white supremacist movement. for one thing, white supremacists failed to establish anything resembling a mass movement in america. now, in the 1960s, rockwell believed that trends such as race riots and rising crime would lead to mayhem. and thus create the favorable conditions for his party to take power. he even entertained the idea that his party could actually win national power by elections by 1972. but rockwell fell to an assassin's bullet in 1967, and with his departure some elements of the extreme right beca

now the house oversight committee trey gowdy and elijah cummings are demanding answers in a letter to the white house. they write, "with numerous revelations of senior executive branch employees, deliberately trying to circumvent these laws by using personal private or alias email addresses and conduct official government business, the committee has aimed to use its oversight in a basket of resources to prevent misuse of private forms of written communication." what your take on this? i want your take and what hillary clinton said. we know she never set up an account, she deleted tens of thousands of emails. is there a similarity or difference? >> antonio: did she use the word hypocrisy? she is ms. hypocrite. she is a person who over her entire career has never given back to the working people. she still complain about the same thing. the more she talks, the worse it goes for the democratic party. what happened is the name of her book, we know what happened. she made a huge mistake and she was not honest the macon people. we know who she is. benghazi, iran and all the deals she made o

[ laughter and applause ] bannon -- bannon was apparently delighted that the president defended white supremacists. in fact in a rare on-the-record interview yesterday, bannon gleefully celebrated the fact that the national conversation has been dominated by the white supremacist rally, and the ensuing outrage. he said this to the american prospect about the democrats, the longer they talk about identity politics, i got them. i want them to talk about racism every day. if the left is focused on race and identity,

elijah cummings said that of secretary price had an entitled millionaire mind-set and went on to say the amount of taxpayer funds he spent on one flight this month is more than some of my constituents make in an entire year. the challenge will be the oversight committee says we'll take a look at there. will they go through the records. >> will the republicans give aggressive oversight? >> they're leaving open the possibility they will. i see the white house's response immediately out of the gate to say we did not an probable this travel as to leave just enough cushion between the president and his hhs secretary that if he needs to drop him like a hot potato he can. >> when we come back, the top political story. roy moore says he's a constitutional conservative unless there's a conflict with the bible. >>> welcome back. if you don't live in alabama, you may not know roy moore but you may be reminded of some of his past legal bats. as chief justice of the alabama supreme court he defied a court order to remove a monument to the ten commandments inside the supreme court building. in 201

. >> reporter: two house democrats elijah cummings of maryland and eliot engel of new york received information from michael flynn's former business partners that have confirmed that michael flynn was in the middle east in 2015 trying to pursue a major deal that would concentrate 16 nuclear reactors in saudi arabia and also would lead to the purchase of military hardware with russia. this $100 billion deal was being pursued by michael flynn and a consortium of companies here in the united states. what was significant when he returned back to the united states to fill out his security clearance form to renew his security clearance form as a retired army general, he did not disclose this foreign meeting. this note to knowingly falsify your security clearance forms is a violation of federal law. and this is another example of mr. flynn not disclosing these meetings. and, of course, wolf, he is coming under investigation on a number of fronts including his conversations with the russian ambassador last year. >> significant development. manu raju, thanks very much. >>> here with us to assess all of

in the case of jared kushner we're told it's less than 100 but what trey gowdy and elijah cummings, theom carolina said give us an accounting of everybody at the executive level that is using personal email and i could tell you personally as a former member of congress, the former chairman, if they're doing that it also is wrong. it is cannot upon us to -- >> dana: if they did personal -- sorry, government business on personal email that they also forwarded it to an email address that would be captured by the presidential records act so they are -- this is their words saying they are in compliance with the law? >> it's cannot upon the oversight committee to hold them accountable for doing that. that's exactly what we did with hillary clinton -- although still to this day there are 10's of thousands of records that she has not turned over. it's not even her responsibility to do it. it's the state department. that still hasn't happened. it's disgusted that there are nearly 200-plus people at the state department that are still underon open investigation that still have a degree of securit

and finally, penns grove at palmyra, and very nice running here by elijah carjay, a quick move throughraffic, penns grove wins big 67-32. >>> well, it is moment you have been waiting for the game of the week this week you voted to see florence and holy cross. we will head inside the locker room. >> you guys are going against one of the best teams in the league. >> unaudible. panthers on three. >> florence is ready as well as they come bursting on the field, they will get on the board, first. joe, running this one to the right and in for the touchdown 207 nothing florence. budd then holy cross takes its toll on the ground a huge hole in the right side, and low to to his shoulder gets in and that will tie it at seven. and then guess who, back again this time to the left side. holy cross pulls out a 14- seven win over florence. here's their head coach. >> anytime you play them you bet are be ready. they battled. we battled. we came out one touchdown better but what a great team they are and what a great job the coach does and his staff with that team. >> great game and thanks to everyone

elijah cummings wrote a letter in which he questioned or pointed out that mike flynn sr. failed to disclose a trip he made to the middle east to promote a joint u.s./russia, saudi-financed program to build nuclear reactors in the arab world. he omitted this trip in these foreign contacts from his security clearance. he also reportedly was paid for representing and didn't disclose the $25,000 he received from this group. this was a policy that he, you know, at least helped move through the policy process during the transition. can you talk about where someone could commit a crime or get entangled with the law in those kinds of activities? >> well, mike flynn sr. here we're talking about was going to be national security adviser. he came national security adviser and, therefore, was eligible for the highest security clearance available. and when he filled out his security clearance forms, he had to disclose contacts he had with foreign government officials, as well as his foreign travel and foreign contacts. and if he did not do that, the clearance form itself which you and

and elijah cummings, ranking member on the committee that is -- one of the committees that is investigating this, and elliott angle, wrote the following -- this is a en an excerpt. your responses suggest that you and other officials at your companies may have discussed with trump administration officials during and after flynn's tenure at the white house meaning discussed these deals. so is that really kind of the principal exposure for michael flynn that he just didn't fill out forms that disclosed it, or is it the actual deals themselves? >> no, the fs-86 in not putting that on there, that is not the principal problem for michael flynn. that will be a tertiary problem at the least. it's actually going out and arranging these deals. you know, i've said from the very beginning why did these people go and do things which were patently going to show up as potentially criminal when they got into the white house? and it's principally because they feel that they were going to be masters of the universe. once they won this election, they felt they controlled all the levers of government and that

that's why elijah cummings and myself wrote a letter to gowdy asking for an emergency hearing to discuss puerto rico and virgin islands where there are real concerns about this recovery effort. >> the administration, particularly the president of the united states seems to be primarily concerned with getting good headlines instead of demanding good headlines for the recovery efforts in the u.s. virgin islands as well as puerto rico. have you begun to focus more on members of congress as you just mentioned have you given up on trying to get the white house to pay attention. >> right now, the federal government is on the ground in the virgin islands but i believe that there's a real disconnect between what the federal government and fema have been told, that are the issues with the people of the virgin islands and what the grassroots and what the actual individuals residents are needing. for example, the army corps was happy to tell me that they were able to get the potable water up. po most people in the virgin islands their homes are not powered by city water or water coming from a munic
