franklin graham, franklin graham is the son of prominent evangelist billy graham. taking on rising democratic presidential candidate pete buttigieg. the south bend mayor is gay and also very open about being a man of faith. so here's what he said at a cnn town hall. this was monday. about challenging the religious right. >> i get that one of the things about scripture is different people see different things in it, but at the very least, we should be able to establish that god does not have a political party. >> well, franklin graham had some thoughts about this. frankly, i hate to even read this out loud, but i will because i want us to be able to talk about it. all right? so here it is. "presidential candidate and south bend mayor @petebuttigieg is right, god doesn't have a political party but god does have commandments, laws and standards he gives us to live by. god doesn't change. his word is the same yesterday, today, and forever. mayor buttigieg says he is a gay christian. as a christian, i believe the bible which defines homosexuality as a sin, something to

and franklin is quite remarkable. times,t that he won four 32, 30 6, 40, and 44, that he guided us through the great depression with his new deal programs, you know, social , we all now live in a social security america of franklin. and being the commander in chief for world war ii, facing off against not see germany and many of theing so top generals and admirals, putting them in the top slot, there's a group of books from nigel hamilton about fdr pointing out how he is the mastermind of d-day, not winston churchill or someone else. he is very secure at number three. there are people who think he should be number one because of thelong we have lived in shadow of fdr, all the way from 1945 to 1980, when reagan gets elected and starts saying that that's enough of federal government overreach. even though reagan actually continued to do big federal programs, he was starting to say that we need to cut taxes, dialback government, because he was a post-vietnam president and the vietnam war made many people think that the g

franklin may be able to. >> yes absolutely. there were a number of them and we've successfully closed out those recommendations. >> the recommendation, this was mandating a study of five years using data analytics to study the effectiveness of the veteran crisis line. >> i may have crossed your question with recommendations but of course we can check on that and get you an answer to that. >> thank you, my time is respire. >> thank you mr. banks. dr. stone, i've asked my staff to take a look at this response to the nature of the deployments and how they differ today. i will recognize mr. pappas for five minutes. >> thank you very much mr. chair and i appreciate the panel. your thoughts here today as we confront this critical issue for our nation and for all of our veterans and their family members. i want to build off of one thing that dr. stone was discussing and that is the va police force. you indicated a little bit of the training in terms of identifying the signs and i think that's an importan

franklin may be. >> dr. franklin, are you familiar with this? >> i'm not sure i'm familiar with them exactly. you might be talking about our reach that intervention? >> it was the only metric within the 2019 annual performance plan for the entire va that i could find that related to suicide. and this objective stated that you would have recommended interventions, three recommended interventions and follow up care. and so, in the performance plan it said that you achieved, seek to achieve the 65% of the time, yet dr. stone earlier in your remarks, you said this was your number 1 priority and you are putting all efforts behind being 100% effective? in this area. so seemingly the 65% is a relatively low measure of effectiveness for your number 1 priority. would you agree? >> congresswoman, i must admit to you i am not familiar with this and i would be more than happy to take a look at it. and get back to your staff in the next 48 hours to talk about it. >> i appreciate that. i'd like to follow up with that metric since it was the only one in the pl

harry became president upon the sudden death of franklin roosevelt.oosevelt, of course, had been president for 12 years. many young people especially had known no other president. harry truman was suddenly thrust into the office. this office here is actually depicted as it appeared in the summer of 1950, just shortly after the korean war had started. it is decorated exactly the way it was on a particular day in august 1950. many of the items around the room are very typical of truman. the desk is cluttered with a lot of trinkets that were given to truman over the years. these are the items that happened to be on his desk on that day in august 1950. the furniture in the room is all reproduction furniture, because the original furniture is still at the white house. however, most of the items on the walls and on the tops of the desk and so forth are originals. there are few exceptions. but one of the most interesting pieces is the large globe in front of the fireplace mantel. in 1945, in july of 1945, harry truman went to the potsdam conference. while he

franklin, i can see that you are deeply committed to this issue. my fear is that there are some things as you mentioned that are out of our control. and i'm saying this as someone as a platoon leader six years ago, and one thing, operational tempo and intensity of our deployment, so my questions today center around the effects of these issues on suicides. i'm going to read off a few statistics and then i have a few questions. in a report in 2018 by the uniformed services university, it has shown those who served 12 or fewer months before their first deployment were twice as likely to attempt suicide during or after their second deployment. also additional studies, those redeployed within six months were 60% more likely to attempt suicide. were you aware of these statistics? >> iron. >> have you seen any further causal relationship between the number of deployments and intensity of deployments as it relates to suicide? >> between the 18 to 34 demographic particularly post- 9/11 combat veterans. >> certainly there are some deeply troubling issues reg

franklin roosevelt was president longer than any other president. a lot of people e he was the only president they had known. now harry truman, who had only been vice president for 82 days is suddenly sworn in as president. >> the combined air might of the united nations is loosed upon war plants in nazi occupied europe. >> the world was in turmoil with wars in europe and the pacific. the war in europe was almost over. and in fact, germany surrendered on may 7th 1945. the next morning was harry truman's birthday. so the war in europe ended fairly quickly. but the war in japan in the pacific was continuing. there were fire bombing raids going on in tokyo, more than 100,000 people were killed in a single fire bombing raid. but in the midst of all this, truman also wanted to continue on some of franklin roosevelt's initiatives. one of the main ones being the founding of the united nations. so in june of 1945, you went to san francisco and signed the united nations charter. the first four months of truman's presidency are probably the most dramatic four

it's what franklin roosevelt did by having eleanor roosevelt on his team.e said, a welcome thorn in his side. always willing to question his assumptions and argue with him, but speaking truth to power. i think any team needs that, whether it's in business or not. they said about her that whenever she wanted something done, she would bring a person who he did not want to speak to, because he would tire of that person, right to the dinner table, so she would have to speak to him, because she brought an alternative point of view. it is so important today, in this 24/7 world, it's important to be able to think, relax, and replenish their energies. lincoln went to the theater 100 times during the civil war. he said when a shakespeare play came on, for a few precious hours, he could imagine himself back in the time and forget the war was raging. i mean, you guys all feel like you're so busy. they were pretty busy. i feel that way too about our 24/7 world. they were pretty busy, and the civil war, world war ii, and the depression to deal with, and they all found w

caroline: i want to go back to bobby franklin, who i think is still with us.earing that uber might get into insurance, payments. they are already in food, ridesharing. could there be any other perfect storm in terms of sheer volume of private capital to feed this beast so quickly at this scale, and can it be continued? well, i think it can be continued now that they are going onto the public markets, as long as investors believe that there's an opportunity. i think that when we look at the types of innovative companies that are going public here, like uber or even the others planned to go public in the next few months, i really think that people have to think about these totally differently. the next generation of companies are really thinking about entire platforms, and you really have to divorce yourself from the way we have looked at industries and companies in the past, and think about relationships between a company and their customer, the direct relationship, and what else they can do for them. i think it is exciting. there's lots of opportunities for ne

to repent for being gay. >> oh, just shut up, franklin graham.e for normalizing donald trump's behavior and for using your position to suggest well, john meacham i will let you go. here's a man who along with so many people in my community, the evangelical community attacked bill clinton for his personal failings. they are now using their position, these evangelical leaders like religious leaders of jesus' day, they are now using their positions to gain political power and apologize for donald trump. now suddenly franklin graham is talking about lifestyles and -- and sinning and a guy who has gone through a very difficult personal journey to figure out who he really is? he's criticizing them for that? because it's not a lifestyle choice, and if anybody that's heard pete buttgieg talk knows that. >> you know, what reverend graham is doing here is basically practicing elective self-righteousness and selective scriptural choices and one of the problems it seems to me with this is these kinds of extreme statements and they are extreme at this point s

how does that enrich franklin graham? >> i don't know how it does, but evidently it does in some way. i wish we had a long show to deal with it, but this has a history in america. they call at this time spiritual mobilizer. roosevelt when he was pushing social security and the new deal. you had the moral majority and other groups that have come out. you know the so-called religious right, i don't like to use the term, but they started around the issue of privatized school and wanted to refuse to engage in desegregation. we had for years this strange form of extreme policies where people say basically if you are against a woman's right to choose and you are against gay people and for guns and tax cuts, somehow you are on god's side. that's antithetical to everything that jesus live and showed in his lifetime. he can say this is the religion of franklin graham, but he cannot say his statements are the religion of jesus christ and christianity. we have to challenge that. i challenge it as someone who is a pastor and a theolo

so in terms of franklin graham, i have not been able to speak to franklin about his comments. i saw it. i think we have a long and storied and cherished tradition in american religious history of prophetic voices speaking truth to the larger culture. i think that is really what he was trying to do, is talk about what he believes the bible says on the subject of marriage. my organization is different. we are not a church. we are not a ministry. we are a public policy organization. so when it comes to these kind of issues, we are going to stick to the public policy. but i have a very optimistic and healthy regard for the american people's ability to, in the course of this discourse, arrive at a good decision and be fair-minded to everybody sharing their views on their own faith. whether it is pete buttigieg or franklin graham. reporter: our time is really evaporating here. i want to get in another question. in the coming week, the attorney general will be on capitol hill. he will talk about the mueller report. what do you have to say to democratic committee chairmen who are vowi

they both shared the affection of franklin roosevelt. -- roosevelt in different ways. elenor was enormously valuable -- frances perkins was the one who came up with the ideas and enacted the legislation. franklin roosevelt was the one who had the political savvy and popularity to make things happen. and eleanor was the one who could popularize these ideas. the two women were friends. they loved each other as allies of a lifetime do. and they were also fears rivals and often jealous of each other. at the end of their lives though, there's a wonderful picture of the two women at the 50th anniversary of the triangle shirt waist fires and their heads are big and close together and you can see what sincere friendship and affection they had for each other, despite they maylittle tiffs have had over the years. >> thank you very much for writing the book. i enjoyed it very much and i agree with you that it is an issue that needs to be brought forward. do you think that the book brings any new research or addition to the historiography of that period? kirstin: i would say the t

you're watching the moments when this franklin tornado spawned. you can see how ominous those skies are. this is referred to as a wedge tornado. it's often where the base of the tornado is wider than the actual height of the tornado. this is a large, very significant, very destructive tornado that moved through the eastern portions of texas. let's get to the details. graphics behind me. this is the latest from the storm prediction center. there were 10 tornados, 67 reports of wind damage, 29 hail reports causing damage. the list and the numbers keep peopling up as well. and these are some of the hailstones that fell from the skies in the colony texas. normally hailstones are more cylindrical. when you start getting jagged edges, a picture says a million words. we don't want to see that falling from the sky in a regular hailstorm. so much energy in this system, at one point over 175,000 lightning strikes in a 12-hour period just from this storm system moving from texas all the way through to alabama. now the severe weather threat is shifting eastwa

tornadoes swept through the town of franklin, causing widespread damage.ississippi. nickjohnson reports. the aftermath of a direct hit from a tornado. wins are 140 miles per hour level whole neighbourhoods here in the small town of franklin in central texas. two young children we re central texas. two young children were killed when a tree fell on the family car. at least seven others have been injured. despite the frequency of extreme weather in this pa rt frequency of extreme weather in this part of the world, residents are still coming to terms with the severity of the storm. something hit the house but i didn't expect all this, it was surprising when the sun came up and we could see what happened. about half of texas came to help us, we lost about half of the south side of franklin. we need all the help we can get, we need somebody to get these people back, cleaned up and back in their homes. thousands are still without power across the region is storm swept through neighbouring louisiana and mississippi, but while the clear up from the storm continues

and franklin is quite remarkable.es,t that he won four 32, 30 6, 40, and 44, that he guided us through the great depression with his new deal programs, you know, social , we all now live in a social security america of franklin. and being the commander in chief for world war ii, facing off against not see germany and many of theing so top generals and admirals, putting them in the top slot, there's a group of books from nigel hamilton about fdr pointing out how he is the mastermind of d-day, not winston churchill or someone else. he is very secure at number three. there are people who think he should be number one because of thelong we have lived in shadow of fdr, all the way from 1945 to 1980, when reagan gets elected and starts saying that that's enough of federal government overreach. even though reagan actually continued to do big federal programs, he was starting to say that we need to cut taxes, dialback government, because he was a post-vietnam president and the vietnam war made many people think that the gover

it is hard to think of somebody like franklin pierce.aybe you could include franklin roosevelt in there, too. you look at presidents who faced existential challenges. if what they were doing didn't work out, there would go to the republic. the founders faced that existential challenge, and i think it ingrained themselves in our national story, because of their overcoming the challenges they faced. lincoln faced that, and i think you could say franklin roosevelt did, too. so i guessed the last century being the 20th century, maybe roosevelt in terms of the challenges that he faced and overcame. >> from casper, wyoming. mrs. cheney: oh, wow, that's my home. >> heading back there tomorrow. jan gray. lynne, about madison's height, he was only 5 feet or inches. he was a short as president, and i want to know when your research did you find that he had any troubles because of that , and especially with regard to his relationships with women? as you know, he didn't get married until he was a lot older , and dolly was 17 years younger than he wa

i wish franklin d roosevelt had lived to see this day. harry truman's birthday is on may 8th. much of the world celebrated the victory in europe day. he said what a wonderful birthday present that was. he recognized only half the job was done. peace was on its way in europe. but war was still waging in the pacific. america was preparing for that. in a few months, he would travel to germany and meet with joseph stalin, winston churchill. at the conference. and on the way home to the united states, he would authorize the use of the atomic bomb on military targets. two atomic bombs were dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki. >> with this bomb, we have now added a new and revolutionary increase in destruction. >> and so the first five months of truman's presidency were among the most challenging of any president in our history. mrs. truman suffered a loss with the death of her mother. she died a few weeks before christmas in 1952. and really just a few weeks before president truman would lead the presidency in january of 1953. she died without a will. and so what mr. and mrs. truman d

the comparison is, we remember the most, theater roosevelt, franklin roosevelt, john f. kennedy, ronald reagan, are all optimistic. riggins comes from his father being an alcoholic and he created a sunny view, the point is look at all the problems in the world today in the sunny of optimism is either political or something not a psychological coping mechanism. a great leadership and not great thinking always you need to keep people believing that better days are coming and not to fall into despair that our democracy is corroded or disappearing on a.
