kate hendricks thomas, behavioral medicine researcher at george mason university.for joining us this morning. you experienced burn pits serving in iraq. what was that like? >> well, the biggest memory that i have is the regular cleanings that we performed of these stand-alone air conditioning units that we had in buildings. when we cleaned out the filters, they would be full of black particulate matter, chunks of gross stuff. we would laugh amongst ourselves about oh, wow, this is what we're breathing in, that can't be good. but we were 25 and invincible at the time. we weren't really concerned. >> kate, you were diagnosed with breast cancer after your service, despite having no family history with that illness. it was during an annual exam about ten years ago that a nurse told you that based on where you were stationed, they were seeing a lot of veteran women with breast cancer. i am wondering what went through your mind during the diagnosis and then in the three years it took to get your benefits claim approved. >> well, initially when she referred me for a mammo

really heated debates about do we rename the school currently named after thomas jefferson or george mason? if you're a parent who just doesn't want your kid on zoom anymore does that seem like the wrong focus? it is the intersection of the issues of social justice and education. youngkin kept airing ads in the d.c. market showing footage of fights breaking out in schools and saying it is the democrats who took police officers and school resource officers out of schools. i'll put them back. from public safety to covid and more lots of things fall under this umbrella of education which gives republicans a big opportunity and republicans know it might exist in 2022. you already had kevin mccarthy come out and say republicans will put forward a parents' bill of rights. this is a message they'll hit on for the next 12 months. >> one quick thing about congresswoman spanberger's comments. i think democrats have to be careful. they can't contort themselves so much in a way to appease moderates, independents, mystery voters they're looking for, in a way that progressives become disillusioned becau

untold story of the violence that helped spark the civil war" and a public policy professor at george mason university who warned of a trump-like figure coming to office many years ago and is now warning of civil conflict. the author of "revolutions a very short introduction." thank you both for joining me. joann, i want to read something you posted on twitter about the threat of political violence in 2021 america. you said i think dismissing this kind of talk as just talk is a mistake. it's about intimidation, pushing people into compliance or silence. threats need to be believable to have an impact not carried out. rage, hatred, fear, intimidation, their party platform. just to be clear, joanne, are you suggesting what we saw in terms of violent and dangerous rhetoric in the 1840s and the run up to the civil war your area of expertise is comparable to what we're seeing in america today specifically on the right? >> well, he wouldn't use the word civil war. i wouldn't say just like in the 1850s we're headed into a civil war. i think we need to be careful with words on all counts and the ph

prime minister, it's an honor to be here today as a george mason undergraduate student of international relations. and one of the things you hear a lot about if you study international relation ins this country is what we call the pivot to asia, that emphasis, change in emphasis by the biden administration to come degree the trump administration is focusing on asia and one of the things you talk a lot about, you talked about today is usmca. but given the pivot to asia, is it something that you're going to be discussing with president biden that maybe the u.s. and canada should be trading more with east asia and maybe even walk back in the trans pacific partnership? >> first of all, canada is a signatory to the trans-pacific partnership and we moved through it and the only g7 country with a free trade deal with every other g7 country. canada has free trade access to two-thirds of the global economy and we did that at a time with real concerns around globalization and trade because we were putting environmental standards, labor standards and high expectations on those trade deals, includi

also we're joined by astrophysicist and professor at george mason university hakeem olushay. now foreign policy, right. i wonder what is russia doing here, jim? why would they do this? >> we're deep into the weaponization of space. it is not a future. it is happening now. russia, china, north korea and iran all tested and deployed space weapons, from kill vehicles to surface to air to space missiles like we saw over the weekend to lasers. there are lasers in space today that could fry u.s. satellites. i spoke to the chief of operations for u.s. space command in august about this. it is a new reality that the u.s. is already preparing for. have a listen. >> what we have seen our competitors do are build capabilities to negate our access to space. and that's something that is concerning to us. that's why the space force is so important. we are the best in the world at space, we want to remain the best in the world in space and move fast and stay ahead of that threat. >> who are the biggest competitors? >> china and russia are the two big competitors. >> he gets at the why there

. >> elliott, george mason university.legation or non-delegation, there are some on the right, i don't share the view myself, but some who are deeply opposed to delegations to agents, but they don't mind it to the president. they don't mind it to the deep state but are fine with it towards the service state, the person at the top of the executive branch hierarchy. from the standpoint of polarization, do any analysts think there is a distinction to be made between these kinds of delegations, where one is the president or the highest level subordinates, the ones he appoints himself, whereas others might be too administrative or independent agencies. is there one type of delegation that is better or worse than the other for polarization and if so, why? thank you. >> well, i guess i think that in the main there isn't really significant. there are differences obviously between those types of delegations but from my perspective, the unilateralism is going to be a problem for both of them. obviously to the extent that we are talk

he witnessed huge mason. george washington was obviously a pretty big mason.inducted lafayette and it is masonic lodge and that's part of what allow them to become very close. but i think it's nice to look -- another good person is condor say the marquis day condorcet who is one of these early enlightenment philosophers who was before lafayette really truly latched on to his abolitionism was writing about african that he winds up reading. those are a couple and reynaud and condor say it's not like he just went to the united states and learned all these things. >> i want to ask two questions and i think it's unfair not to follow up. he said you mentioned adam says in john adams and he tweeted out with jessica's question. are there any lessons or takeaways that you took from lafayette? >> just a very small thing because we don't have much time. the thing about, okay there is a tendency that people often have two subconsciously believe that things like progress and reform change for the better are just things that happen. look back on history. history is really p

mason. like george washington was obviously a pretty big mason. super into it and inducted lafayette into his masonic lodge and part of what allowed them to become very close, but it's nice to look at -- another good person is condorce, early enlightenment social reformers before lafayette truly launched into his abolitionism writing criticism and critiques of washington's slavery lafayette ends up reading. a couple. renault, things in the -- getting it from france. not like he just went to the united states and learned all of these things. >> i want to ask you two questions, but one i'm going to ask you to tweet, because i think it's unfair not to follow-up. devon wants to know, said you mentioned in context adams, john adams. >> okay. >> only said anything bad about lafayette? what did he say? jealousy? 50 a day, tweet that out and believe was an were, positive note, for our time are the -- questions or takeaways from contemporary politics taken from lafayette? >> sure. >> still a question. >> yeah. just a very small thing, because we don't have

mason, bbc news. rising global temperatures are, of course, being discussed in glasgow. i took that issue up with sharon georgehe tyndall centre for climate change research. we are already atjust over one degree of average global warming which has increased byjust over one degree already so you can imagine that another a degrees to 1.5 degrees is not very far to go, but we still see impacts of climate change that we are seeing already, floods and droughts and continued sea—level rise and with two degrees, effectively it gets worse. including looking at it from how many people are exposed to things like flood and drought and high temperatures and so there is a significant difference between 1.5 degrees and two degrees and i think it's very important that we look at that, people who are affected by that, mostly people from poorer countries from the global south than only as a temperature or impacts on natural causes, on what is going on in the environment. sharon george, from what you have heard of the conference so far, is limiting the temperature increase to 1.5 celsius still an attainable goal? i'm quite scep
