george floyd. we will speak with "washington post" reporters who co-authored the new book "his name is george floyd: one man's life and the struggleor racial justice." >> everyone in the world knows how george floyd died, but our book is about how george floyd lived and italks about his persistence nigating structure around the country that were laced with systemic racism. wanted to write this book in part because we wanted to show how george floyd h experienced institutional racism over the urse of his life long before he met up. welcome to democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. presidenbiden has vowed to defend taiwan if it was attacked by china. he made the remark when questioned during a news conference in tokyo earlier today. >> you did not want get involved in the ukraine conflict terribly for obvious reasons. are you willing to get involved militarily to defe taiwan if it comes to that? pres. biden: yes. >> you are? pres. biden: that is the commitment we

george h.w. bush. jim baker's first chapter in the book you will not be able to put the rest of it down. >> cell and or, you not only can comment or remember the bush 41 administration, but also someone who put the uniform back on during that era. so again, it is a fallacy that bush 41 was somehow afraid to use military force. >> it was a fallacy. we should george bush was quite the opposite he was able to control himself and who like to punch someone out or yell at someone. enough that he could get what he wanted done. without browbeating people and making friends with them. the only non- american the only non- participant in the bush administration hey wrote a chapter in said gorbachev said to him, if i did not trust george bush the snow would have not happened all of the transformation would not have happened and it could have resulted in a war. and gorbachev himself said because he trusted bush. that makes a big difference. it was not widely understood. i want to tell you a story located in l

george h. w. bush and american foreign policy. they've collected insider accounts from bush administration veterans who helped shape world events from the fall of the soviet union to the gulf war. the wilson center in washington d.c. is the host of this virtual event. i am mark green, president and ceo the wilson center with charter by congress more than 50 years ago to, in their words strength in the few full relation between the world of learning and the world of public affairs. one of the principal ways to fulfill that mission is through the history and public policy program. which drives to reach public resource record of 20th and 21st century international history from repositories around the world. based upon those records, to facilitate scholarship, education, and debate. we also mobilize scholarship and research to inform public policy in other ways. from podcasts like international history declassified, to blogs like my own, stubborn things. today's program is very much in line with that

george h. w. bush was uniquely qualified when he did. as you guys pointed out, the first president in 120 years with prior to that experience. the only president with leadership experience in u.s. intelligence agencies. the last world war ii veteran to serve, and the last injured in combat. and yet the book describes his election as an aberration. could we have a george h. w. bush elected today. could we see someone with those unique qualifications rise to take the reins at these important times in our history? andrew carr, why don't i start with you? >> thank you for having me on with my great friend, andrew natsios. think you for your service to our country in both congress and the usf a.d., and now with the wilson center. i am excited to be here with you. andrew natsios, deserves 99.9% of the credit in making sure this remarkable collection of essays and reflections comes out. i am credited with having helped him but really, he helped me help him. he motivated me, the most remarkable thing is t

george h. w. bush signed was to organize the reconstruction of afghanistan after the russian troops left. now, a i. d. was put in clear charge. they said a ideas and charge, everyone else works through a idea with a i. d. but they are in charge of the reconstruction. the equivalent, i think those $225 million on today's dollars. you could say that's not a lot of money. in those, days you could do a lot with $225 million, and we started to do. it i don't have anything. it was a separate office. and then the civil war started between the taliban and the northern alliance. now, you can say that we didn't fix the diplomacy of that. but don't say we didn't do anything on the reconstruction. most of what we did do was destroyed in the civil war, is not that he didn't focus on that. he is the first thing he focused on. now, alex the wall, one of the great scholars. not a particular fan, he's a british scholar at tufts. but he's written a lot of books about famines, about africa and all that. he wrote a b

how did we get from george washington to george w. bush? how did we get from george washington through barack obama? how did we get from george washington to donald trump? now, one of the striking things is that if you go from george washington two most presidents before the current president, you see a kind of linear progression. now, some people would think that it's a decline, that the curve looks down. in fact, this question of, this comparison between the first president and the current president goes all the way back to the second president. presidents always look better in the rearview mirror than they do when they're right front and center. part of this is that we tend to -- i don't know -- we sort of tend to forget the failures and remember the successes. that's part of it. the other thing is that presidents are usually pretty talented people. and so, they usually have a lot of positive things that can be said about them. but while they are president, typically the other party or sometimes factions within their own party, have an i

and was named after george the victorious.on manezhnaya square in the center of the clock of the world and at the top of it was york the victorious originally. it's just george a man from a very noble family who was a warrior of the pretarian roman guard under the emperor deaclitian, it is believed that he was a pronounced christian at the time when the persecution of christians took place, he was revered in russia since the time of yaroslav the wise, grand duke andrei george at baptism in the xiv century, the name of the saint was the founder of moscow, yuri, aka egory, he is georgy dolgoruky including and therefore later george the victorious placed on the city coat of arms. from the monument on manezhnaya square to the historical museum, then through red square to the church of st. george the victorious on pskovskaya gorka in the center of the capital, the image of the saint is everywhere. the historical museum of the numismatics department is the order of st. george, established by the decree of catherine ii, the highest m

that is why i call on congress to pass the george floyd justice and policing act.plause] send it to my desk. some asked why haven't done this executive order earlier. if i had done it, i was worried it would undercut the effort to get the law passed. this is a call to action, based on basic truth. public trust, as any cop will tell you, is the foundation of public safety. if they are not trusted, the cop doesn't contribute, doesn't cooperate. there are two sides of the same coin, inextricably linked, and the principles of fairness and equal justice are the core of each of them. the wheels of justice are propelled by the confidence that people have. without that, crimes would be unreported. witnesses would fear to come forward. cases would go unsolved, patients would suffer isolation. ironically, police are put in greater danger. justice goes undelivered. without public trust, law enforcement can't do its job of serving and protecting all our communities. as we have seen all too often, public trust is frayed and broken, and that undermines public safety. for the fam

george the victorious the highest award. moreover , this award was awarded not only to military leaders and not even so much military leaders. how many heroes of any rank from a soldier to the highest commander? and therefore, this order was revered in a special way in the russian empire. well, thank god that in today's russia, george the victorious is also revered both as a saint and as a symbol of military victory and military prowess when did the great patriotic war end? then it was just the day of st. george the victorious , isn’t it a symbol of the one who was with us in this most terrible battle with fascism, of course, the lord helped. we have sinned a lot in the years preceding the revolution and the civil war and the dispossession and destruction of entire groups of people, what just did not happen. a huge injustice under the slogans of building a fair and just society in the world our people have suffered great sacrifices. but they emerged from this war as a completely different people. and what is on that day of v

however, last fall, senate republicans rejected the george floyd justice in policing act.hey walked away from there moral obligation, to address what caused millions of americans to march in the streets. the critical need that a coalition of americans were demanding, were pleading for in terms of reform, and accountability. at the time, president joe biden and i and all of us here, we made clear, and we vowed that we would explore every action available to us at the executive level to advance the cause of justice in our nation. in a moment, our president will sign an executive order that takes dozens of important actions to advance effective, accountable policing, to strengthen trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve, and to help us fight crime and promote public safety. this order will help to protect our communities, and it will help keep members of law enforcement safe on the job. these actions are a result of input and collaboration from a broad set of partners, many of whom are here today. civil rights leaders, members of congress, and members of

george and gertrude's older brothers were good friends, so gertrude remembered george. she remembers george. sheep said the whole -- she said the whole island loved him. he was kind, funny, full of life and obviously brave. as i mentioned, mr. president, in 1942, george fox left to go fight world war ii for our great nation, right at the time george and gertrude's village, unalaska, was bombed by the japanese. and here's another story most americans don't know about. after that happened, the u.s. government took the alaska native people on the aleutian island chain and put them into internment camps. not white people, only alaska native people. the treatment of these great patriotic american citizens in these camps is a dark spot in american history. as i mentioned, not many americans are aware of. the camps were basically abandoned buildings, the conditions were awful, crowded, unheated, unsanitary. many died in the camps as a result of these horrendous conditions. three years later when the war was finally over, the people of unalaska, the native people of unalaska we

go ahead, george. well, that's exactly right back all them they have that disposal, which is if they can misery on the ukrainians and of course on their own electrodes. and when victor or van said the other day that an oily mago completely cutting off from oil imports from russia will be like leasing you bomb on the gear or speaking, not just the gear ends, but for many europeans. this is an absolutely nonsensical idea of cutting yourself from energy employees to get them because of the destruction of your own economists . and it's quite clear that there is no ready means at the european disposal to replace russian oil replace russian get. so all of it is just simply call the e u m. in order to look on the line was supposed to be the chief executive of the human. she's the president of the european emission. she has no enforcement mechanism. kick off call european to do one thing or another, she can talk along and out. but ultimately you're going to have to decide, are they going to stop or they get yo

let me go to george here. that's one thing that we keep hearing charge over the russians have lost the information war. well, i mean, if you're in the west, it's all dissent any, any contrary in view of the situation that's an ukraine is shut down. i mean, then what's the point of having an information more of one side can speak, and that's essentially what is happened. go ahead, george. it's worse than that. it's not just that they closed down t and, and when the band, any access to russia, media in the west. western governments are also the asian, isn't the last of mary operations? there are any number of organizations and things thanks from the by western governments and the e. you, whose sole purpose is to go around writing reports about who to box on the net or criminal this information agent or the russian tools of this information. that's what they do. they are lavishly funded by the european government, the government, and they probably these reports completely worthless, but they serve to great this t

george and was supposed to be worn on a ribbon. you see three black and two yellow stripes, yellow ribbons. this means that this ribbon was made and issued before 1913, because in 1913 the yellow one turned orange during the great patriotic war on the st. george ribbon. they already wore the order of glory in the church. on the pskov hill they say that the saint patronized the soldiers in 1945. the day of memory of george the victorious coincided with easter and 3 days later germany signed the act of surrender zhukov wore me the donkey of george and through these coincidences. we see that our victory in this hard war was a gift to us. god himself , finally, striking the snake in sculpture and numismatics st. george the liberator warrior, but one of the oldest images of the miracle of the snake is interpreted differently. see, but copes with it by the power of the word of god by the power of prayer. here st. george performs a non-military feat, and a spiritual feat and a pacified, but not defeated snake is taken to the princess eles

when demon was talking about george. yes, no question. incidentally. 2 the west, the media versus the new york time still hasn't been accepted, that mario as well. and so they write that according to the russian government, marianna is now under, has been completely fried grove, ukrainian, ukraine government has not confirmed and the times is not able to the russian whenever the ukraine says anything that's always accepted. but when russia has to be independently confirm, i mean, i think that will be what struck i doubt very much those of the western media are going to give much coverage. much like the haven't given much coverage to the lot of fascinating information. the russians are providing about these bio labs in the ukraine and it's a lot of very detailed information that they have on comment documents and everything. it's getting no, no traction in the west. the media, what's, what is playing in west the media and again, and complete the distortion. and i think this is, this will play of a very big role as, as the

george. and his black maga hat.hout kellyanne conway in 2016, donald trump would not be elected president. that is debatable. but here is what will never be in doubt, without george conway. urging me and insisting and supporting and loving me in 2016 to take that presidential campaign management job, my shot. and putting in more at home and helping me with kids, i think not have been trump's campaign manager to extent. >> he was very involved. in the lewinsky tape and jones versus clinton and supreme court and the prime minister of william jefferson clinton, i didn't meet him for 19 months, i think it was intrigue at first sight for me, he was very shy. but i'll tell you more about that later wind of way, what learned about george, he was going to do the work, it was a courtship that started out very sweetly, and slowly. and we had so much in common never fought about anything any anyone, we were falling in love, got engaged and married. >> early over in, he got a call, kelly said can you come. i have a surprise. sh

george best had changed sides. where fans now have the chance to stay at his childhood home. hello, you must be peter. iam. welcome to george best's house. come on on in. thank you very much. wow! so, this is the main room. uh-huh. the bests would have lived in this house from 19118, so we've recently put the house back to as it would've been in 1961, when george first went over to manchester as a 15—year—old in search of fame and fortune. so, that's his mother. yes, the photograph, then, shows george with his mother, annie, and this photograph was taken on his parent's 25th silver wedding anniversary, so they would've been stood in this very room. i mean, this is a 20th—century legend, icon and he would've been here and this picture was there. wow. how easy was it to source this kind of furniture? just came from a number of sources, local charity shops, antique dealers, etc. the bests were the only family to live in this house. george's mother ann died in 1978 but his father, dickie, lived here for 60 years, until

go ahead, george. it's worse than that. it's not just that they closed down t and, and when the band, any access to russia, media in the western governments are also the asian, isn't the boss of smearing operations. there are any number of organizations and things, things from the by western governments and the e. you, whose sole purpose is to go around writing reports about who to box on the net or criminal this information. agents, you know, the russian tools of this information. that's what they do. they are lavishly funded by the european government, the government, and they probably these reports completely worthless, but they serve to great is the atmosphere that as soon as the russian boss all over the place, putting out all kinds of this information, trying to all the western complex so yeah, i mean, then that is what happens then. people don't want to listen to that and they just, exclusively, to the absolute nonsense, told by western governance of case in point. yes, they oh, they speak on may the 9th delivered by

and i'm the mother of lord george pico. hello hello mom. me not. no. thank you.your skin? cow blowing i study in the regional center is called technique. i don't feed you. no thanks. oh, what spots on staphylococcus, it seems, lord and you have more connections, where you can bring home something else. it's a pity that i have it and you also did not bother to check? face edematous pasty jaundice bon appetit. and george said that you are being kept, mother , you still have to hold out until my funeral. vaughn itches all over and the eye twitches. george, we need to talk. mom, you know how i hate platitudes. i tore you from my heart. i sent you to england to become a man. i have not slept a single night without sleeping pills for all these 10 years. i'm already starting to itch, dermatitis begins on a nervous basis, and that's it. for what for so that you learn to play cards and let your father go around the world, so for this you need to squeeze out the sacrifices of your mother. why are you silent? say something. i love her. love for mother love i won't let you g

but who was george floyd?obert: the first thing that we thought about was how much people saw his face, but had no sense of who he was. fred: robert samuels and toluse olorunnipa are the authors of "his name is george floyd: one man's life and the struggle for racial justice." toluse: we wanted to bring back some of his humanity and not reduce him to just an image of a protest movement, but a human being who had loved ones and who had thoughts and dreams and who really saw a lot of those deferred and derailed, in part because of who he was and how society treated people like him. meed: watwthgtvishewo os sonpeii with floyd's family and friends, civil rights leaders and politicians. they reported in third ward and the sprawling cuney homes public housing complex in the shadow of downtown houston, where floyd came of age, and where we met them recently. toluse: he was surrounded by deep poverty. he was surrounded by the crime and the drugs and the issues that come along with the poverty. and it made it very diff

and yeah, george, what do you bet? a batch a couple of beers on this one before it's all said and done. it was the, the russians that trick the japanese into attacking pearl harbor, bad stuff, history. you know, it sounds comical right now, but we're, we're going down that path that we're a very, a historical one when you're, when you're a historical, you're looking for catastrophe. gentlemen. that's all the time we have many thanks to my guess in budapest, moon munich, and st. petersburg, and thanks to our viewers for watching us here, are you see you next time? remember cross muscles ah ah ah, when i was shooting wrong, when i was just a after an engagement, it was the trail. when so many find themselves will depart. we choose to look for common ground a with with both, both the models you need to do both got nothing new with a, a, a, a, a, with a personal number. with you today i'm authorized and additional strong sanction foreign companies, quitting russia. a licensed atm card, so blanton bangs disconnected from th

george knight, two st. george crosses were george e, konstantinovich zhukov and for some reason. when stalin chose. what should be ribbon, at the block of the medal for the victory over germany . he probably meant, of course, both the highest st. george award and the adjoining of victory day and st. his basic education was a clergyman, although he did not graduate from the spiritual. and today, the heirs of this st. george tradition are successfully continuing a special military operation, but on these pre-holiday days on the eve of the great victory day, we remember what happened on this day then in the spring of 1945. may 6, 1945 in the morning in moscow, they received an alarm message on the prague radio. the prague uprising was choking. german troops entered prague . patriots were killed, then the radio message simply stopped. stalin gave the order to launch an offensive against prague not on may 7, as planned, but on may 6, although the troops were not quite ready for this yet. in history books about the prague operation, as a rule, one line is better, at best, one paragraph

let's start out with george in budapest. i'm sure you came across the editorial piece and the new york times, and we see now cracks in this narrative that is all pervasive as a matter of fact enforced by. so social media that is much as they want to support the ukrainians. the facts on the ground are working against them and the policy has to adopt to it. and it's basically kind of a shot over the bow of the, by the administration. now, asking them, are you in touch with reality? essentially, what did you take away from george? well, i think it's a clear indication of the, the divisions within the u. s. lead, i'm obviously, if they're some of the people in the pentagon and in their intelligence. well, giving realistic briefing, they say, look, this war is lost. there is no way you frame them when this war of course goes in opposition to all the people in the state department. all of the lincolns and newlands and other stake, their reputation on this notion that your brain can win this war. this is also meeting with great pos

george ribbon.art of the victory paint campaign, professional artists create the basis for portraits of heroes, and then anyone can finish the canvas, which will later be donated to veterans today. volunteers painted 10 portraits of heroes of the great patriotic war before starting work. they got acquainted with the biographies of veterans whose portrait they were to finish. today, as part of my course, passes victory, we are having a master class, and it’s called the colors of victory, here we draw and finish drawing, and portraits of veterans of the great patriotic war, and now we are with the girls, and we are finishing the portrait of rudny veteran tamara fedorovna. our zemlyachka , she is a native of the nizhny novgorod region, and was a signalman during the great patriotic war, she participated in the battles to liberate the besieged leningrad actions the immortal regiment in moscow will finally take place in the format of a street procession . . expected, that more than a million people will

george george. one of the interesting things from liz's presentation is that russia is the enemy, china is the enemy. i mean that the mask is off right now. ok, no longer time, a projection of stability and all of this. no, i mean there, there is no such thing as the indivisibility of security and she said it ok, so least we know where we stand. go ahead, george. well, definitely we, we know where we stand. the curious thing is that she title her or the return of geo politics. there was no geo politics and anything that she said a supposed to be about the influence of geography on the international relationships of state. there was nothing about geography that there wasn't really even very much about economics. it was a purely a logical statement of intent. not only did you talk about the global nature, she said that the g 7 has to be an economic nato's. i'm going to use this, this body of the g 7, which was supposed to be helping countries out during the recession and other economical. i'm going to

george floyd was a victim of police brutality.r old black father. now, two years later, we more ghana versus three of his death. i remember watching that video like so many of you on 2020. i actually connected the call between the floyd family and president biden during the 2020 presidential campaign and i remember then candidate biden promising that georgia's death would not be in vain. it was the worst stretch of my work life that i have ever had. listening to that call. -- many principles before, but i had never seen sobbed silently on the call, listening to that call between president biden and the floyd family. i remember that week, because after seeing black murder after black murder after black murder, we'll still have to keep on working. it is cumbersome but i know so many people out there feel the same. people are wondering, is this ever going to change? is this making a difference? i'm excited about our next two guests, because washington post reporters tolu and robert. very excited about this. they have broad context to

george? >> ian pannell, thanks. we are joined by the ukraine ambassador to the united states, oksana markarova. thank you for joining us this morning. we've seen those reports of explosions in russia. should russia expect more attacks from ukraine? >> good morning, george, and thank you for having me. the 67th day of this brutal war and 67 days of our heroic resistance, and i think we would like to see russia withdrawing from ukraine. so when they bring to the country i don't know what they should expect. they definitely should consider leaving ukraine. >> so this war is going to go on for some time. they're not leaving. >> not yet. we only see that even after defeats in the north of kyiv, after all the war crimes became evident to everyone, rapes, tortures, destroyed cities, besieged mariupol, and even after everyone saw it and even after the courts as early as the 16th of march, mandated to russia to stop the separation and leave, we do not see the change of their behavior. they are doubling down in the south and

go ahead, george. well, definitely we, we know where we stand here are saying is that she title her or the return of geo politics. there was no geo politics and anything that she said, i mean, you're probably supposed to be about the influence of geography on the international relationship. so say there was nothing about geography that there wasn't really even very much about economics. it was a purely a logical statement of intent. now, not only did you talk about the global nature, she said that the g 7 has to be an economic nature. i'm going to use this body of the g 7, which was supposed to be helping countries out during the sessions and other economic land was not going to use all the to wage a war against russia. and to a lesser extent, china, i mean, she's got some good china, a little bit later on. and she also talked about not giving countries access to the global economy as if somehow the global economy is the private property. all the g 7 hours. it was a declaration of war. i mean, there's

but who was george floyd?first thing that we thought about was how much people saw his face, but had no sense of who he was. fred: roberts samuels and tolu -- and another person is the author of "his name is george floyd: one man's fight and his struggle for racial justice." >> wanted to bring back his humanity, a human being who had loved ones and had thoughts and dreams and who saw a lot of those deferred and a railed, in part because of who he was and how society treated people like him. fred: the two washington post journalists conducted hundreds of interviews, spending time with floyd's family and friends, civirights leaders, and politicians. they reported in the sprawling cuny homes public housing complex in the shadow of downtown houston where floyd came of age, and where we met them recently. >> he was surrounded by deep poverty. he was surrounded by crime and the drugs and the issues that come along witdeep poverty. and it made it difficult for him to envision how to escape. but that was always his go
