ford. i wanted to comment on the idea of it looks like national security is always outward looking at homeland security seems to have been used as or justified by looking inward. maybe you could comment on the ,ilitarization of the police ice looking for immigrants away from the actual borders and homeland security is a way of taking these functions and looking inward where they never were before. i think that raises a good point about how we view counterterrorism and the role the government should play. we have government departments that focus on internal security. that's the department of justice. it has a very personalized culture. laws likely obeys the probable cause. in some counterterrorism functions, we don't to the government adhering to that fully. host: usa today reports that asylum-seekers have filed suit against the dhs. they have been held in detention centers. in the latest legal attack against the attempt to limit immigration, homeland security has violated u.s. law by refus

ford has this whole that. it's old in 1940 when he finally cracks when the union goes on strike again but also now the government is really coming down because world war ii is around the corner, and the government has got to get everything set up so the union is much stronger. there's one jvm and one at chrysler. -- gm. he seldom reverses and he's an odd guy and when he reverses he gets the best contract in the industry. he gives them the union shop and get some things no one else has. >> a very nice chapter about the movement of manufacturing from the west to china and vietnam. there are several river bridges and they copy some of the best and some of the worst ford -- can you discuss that? >> when people start jumping all the roof of factories in 2010, buried in the stories were things at the plant went the worst rash of suicides took place had various estimates about 200,000 workers. i was completely mindful of your personal never heard of this place to be honest and second only idea the fact with 300,000 w

why did stanton deny lincoln a stronger guard here in ford's theater? why did stanton not give strict orders that booth was to be captured and not killed? is it possible that stanton wanted booth dead so that booth couldn't tell his tale, pointing towards stanton's own role? i think you get the general drift of it. serious historians were not especially impressed. i would not mention otto, who is long gone, but for the fact that in a sense, this argument that stanton had a role in the assassination that occurred right here in ford's theater is alive and well. in a 2011 book by bill o'reilly and martin dugard, they resurrect and amplify on eisenshimel's argument using the same question and insinuation method. for example, they suggest at one point that stanton hoped if both lincoln and johnson were killed, that stanton himself could become president. that's nonsense. the act of succession which was in place at the time provided that the order was president, vice president, the president pro tem of the senate and speaker of the house of representatives. s

esteban's life was in shambles, said ford.iend left her-- she blamed it all on her successful, too-beautiful friend, michelle. and set about methodically to kill one of the few people left in the world who still tried to be her friend. why'd she sneak into the school? to find michelle's new address-- maybe kill her there, said ford. why'd she send those texts from the apple store and the chuck e. cheese? to cover up her crime. but she couldn't hide from the cameras, said the prosecutor-- the phone pings, her own electronic trail. and the dna in the car confirmed it. the evidence was overwhelming-- just no refuting it, said ford. and so the defense didn't even try. instead, they did something wholly unexpected-- a big surprise. giselle admitted she did it. so you're putting all of these building blocks together to show that she had to be responsible for this-- yes. --and then, she goes and admits it. yes. i could not believe she would allow her defense to be, "i did it." keith morrison: but there was a reason, said the defense.

and then around 10:00, 10:15 p.m., the doors to ford's theater burst open. people came out screaming. at first some people thought the theater was on fire. then they heard the shouts, "lincoln has been shot, or the theater, find the assassin." that got the attention of the members of the boarding house. the first person who noticed was was george francis who lived on the first floor. he came out and walked into the street and he could only get half way across and people were screaming that the president was dead. he walked right up to the president's body as it was being taken across the street. another border, henry, heard the noise, too. he saw the commotion, and he heard the shouts that lincoln had been shot. he could not get to ford's theater. so many people were outside in the street. so he retreated, came back to the house, and went up the stairs. he stood of the top of the staircase. he was up there watching as the soldiers pounded on the door of the house next door. they could not get in. he saw there was lincoln in the middle of the street being car

they quit working in a gm factory and went to a ford factory. why ford? because he paid five dollars a day, which in 1914 was twice the wages of all other automobile factories. in the 1920's, ford increased its wage to six dollars a day, and interestingly after the stock market crashed, ford raised its wages again to seven dollars a day. this is because ford understood that without purchasing power, there would be no market for all of these automobiles and all of that stuff. there were other ways you could what -- you could raise your wages decides working for ford or finding a higher paying job. you could raise your wages by unionizing, another way of engaging in collective action. i go to president turner and complain about my salary, it will not make any affect. he will entertain me, but it will not change my salary. if i say i will not teach classes and tell give me a salary increase, that will not do anything. but if all the faculty at smu engaged in collective action come we would likely see an increase in our salary. just the same as if you engaged

ford is flat. they did have trouble with sales last month but on top of it, some people are worried aluminum is a big deal for cars right now. there may be reaction if those tariffs go into affect. we are watching the president's twitter feed to see if he walks back the plan he blurted out yesterday to slap those 10 - 25 tariffs on steel and aluminum. even with the loss on the dow, he is defiant and the last we heard he said when a country taxes our products coming in at 50% but we tax the same at zero, that is not fair or smart. we will soon be starting reciprocal taxes so we will charge the same thing as they charge us. 800billion-dollar trade deficit, have no choice. some of these dream just came true. jupiter aluminum of indiana recycled scrap metal to re-create aluminum and building construction. it is also the biggest producer of vehicle license plates in the united states. joining us now on a foxbusiness exclusive, paul. thank you for being here. for more than a decade you have been fighting

it is not huge like ford theater. what i like about the peterson house is the intimacy. when i was working on my books about the lincoln assassination, i would often come to the peterson house. when i knew there would be very few visitors. i have stood in this room any times and imagined what it must've been like to stand here when abraham lincoln was brought down the hallway and laid on the bed in this room. and the emotion and sadness of that night were that morning really comes alive to me when i am in this room. in fact, when i wrote about lincoln coming to the peterson house and dying in this room, i wrote some of my notes while i sit in this room with a notebook and imagined what it must've been like to stand in the spot when abraham lincoln was lying on a bed in this room and when he died. i feel lincoln's presence when i am in this house and in this room. each week, american artifacts takes you to museums and historic places to learn what artifacts reveal about american history. now we visit the new zealand -- mark the 150th anniversary of lincoln's assassination

the whole team at ford is maximizing our production.oduct has been overwhelming. >> maria: i tried it. i absolutely love it, jim. congratulations on the navigator. i have to tell you the g.m. escalade has not lived up to expectations at all but this navigator is a beautiful car and great quality. i mean it. it's unfortunate. i have an escalade. big problems. let me ask you about this, jim -- go ahead. >> sure. one of the things that makes the navigator really different is the third row. we don't talk a lot about it. the new aviator's a three row vehicle. people want room in the third row. that's one of the difference makers for navigator. not only great looking, a great interior but the third row is useful. >> maria: do you know how much the price of a car will go up if we see increased tariffs? we're talking about the trade policy coming out of the white house. are you expecting the price of a car to go up with the tariffs on aluminum and steel? >> generally speaking, prices for vehicles have been going up the last couple he'll years.
