this weekend on american artifacts, we tour the george washington university museum to learn about the four museums that norman rockwell created to represent these ideals. here is a preview. quest to rockwell's paint the four freedoms actually began in failure. he began a series of sketches and came to washington, d.c. and presented them at the up as of or information. -- the office of war information. the leader at the time rejected the idea and sent him away without a commission to paint roosevelt's four freedoms. on his trip home, he stopped in philadelphia and met with his editors at the saturday evening post who embraced the idea and ,nstructed rockwell to go home not to work on other features, but to focus on the four freedoms. he was given three months. it took him seven to conceive and paint the pictures once he began. the first painting he worked on, the one that gave him the inspiration for the series, was freedom of speech. as rockwell recalls in his be out -- in his biography, he was struggling as he always did, struggling to come up with a concept, the idea of how he would

well for more on this we can speak to william lawrence who is a professor at george washington university's school of international affairs and he joins us now from washington d.c. professor lawrence this is all escalating fairly rapidly now in a tweet president trump says there's reason to believe that the u.s. knows who the culprit is and they've already come out and accused iran now let me start by asking you about the saudi investigation into these attacks are they likely to be able to provide with any sesson to any evidence to say who did this. certainly i think the 1st thing to say is that if if the saudis couldn't defend against these weapons whether drones or cruise missiles or a combination there was some problem in tracking them but this whole area is covered by by all kinds of surveillance from satellites and from and from maritime and and so it's not that hard for both the saudis and the americans to backtrack and figure out what came from where as lawrence korb said it's quite interesting that the americans have been saying that the hits came from the north and west and yet the

well in lawrence is a professor at the elliott school of fed stash of affairs at george washington university and he now joins us live from our studios in washington d.c. thank you very much for coming on this program so many developments in the past few hours but let's 1st start with the. gesture an olive branch to saudi arabia unilateral ceasefire what do you make of the timing of this. well it's certainly very important that the who are let's say reassessing a little bit and stepping back from their you know multi month onslaught on saudi positions and the offer is quite interesting i mean on one level it's already been broken the saudis have hit and. this isn't reported a lot but these hold little bits of saudi territory and there are number of reasons why the saudis aren't going to accept the terms or stop their fighting and their shelling of civilian areas and everything they're doing any time soon but on the other hand it's as you said the timing is really interesting and i think even though the who's these have taken full responsibility for the hit on the iran coast sites in a sense t

when it's bringing william lawrence is a professor at the george washington university elliott school of international affairs joins us live in washington d.c. iranian leaders have welcomed donald trump's decision to sack john bolton what do you make of the iranian response and does tehran now think the chance of war is very much diminished. i think. that's the case i think bolton was the member of the national security council and trump's advisors who most wanted confrontation with iran i think trump text tends to talk you know in the words of fire and fury whereas bolton would actually like to take actions that embody fire and fury and i think the iranians believe there may be an opportunity right now but i think that they'll be deceived. for several reasons including that pompei 0 is just as much of an iran hawk as bolton was and even if they managed to get for example a side meeting at the u.n. in new york the chance that they will actually yield sanctions relief for iran which is what they're looking for is very very slim and william the sacking of john bolton isn't the same as a

impeachment on a sitting justice of the supreme court over an incident that occurred decades ago george washington universityrofessor and professor is here now. can you, john? >> the clearest one involves a guy named skyler colfax. back in the 70s he did some things before he took office and they try to impeach him. the house judiciary committee said unanimously, you can only impeach for somebody and something which he did once he took office. jump forward 200 years, our congressional research service even for kavanaugh was nominated and trump was elected said nobody has ever been impeached solely on the basis of something he allegedly did before he took office, and jumping back 200 years, our old friend alexander hamilton said impeachment is reserved for violations of the public trust. no matter what he may have done 30 years ago, he should not be impeached. >> neil: there is the other case, and democrats comment on this where judge thomas porteous was removed from the bench by congress in 2010. i know it's a slightly different case but, what do you make of that? >> that was probably the exception which may
