if twice as many houses burned in this county in tennessee as had in georgetown, neither you nor any other members of congress would have thought of appropriating a dollar for relief. he informed crockett, if each congressman showed symptom to the fire victims by giving one week's way it would have been easier to give other people's money. he continued, the people of washington no doubt applauded you for relieving them from the necessity of giving by giving what was not yours to give. the people have delegated congress by the power to do certain things. to do these it is authorized to collect and pay money and for nothing else. everything beyond this is user and a violation of the constitution. you see, colonel, you've vie hated the constitution in what i consider a vital point. it's a precedent fraught from danger to the country for when congress begins to stretch its power beyond the limits of the constitution there's no limit to it and no security for the people. >> today we're faced with a vastly greater sum than $20,000. we're faced with $40 billion to be gifted to ukraine. a no

they first went to fredericktown and burned it and then came to georgetown. and when they came to georgetown a woman by the name of catherine kitty knight apparently pled with coburn to save one house that was occupied by an older alien woman and also the house turned out she was able to save the house next door that she was renting that she had lived it. so there are records of kitty buying the house that she had been rented and then in 19 in 1836 and then 1855 when she died her obituaries actually the first record of this happening. um, so there was no contender there was no contemporary accounts of it happening during the battle again. did this happen? you know, we're you know, you have to ask that question. but okay, so first those two structures that she's supposedly saved still stand. so that's that's good, too. that's interesting to know they both stand and they actually have been combined into an in a restaurant that bears her name and also coburn as we kind of learned from matilda and also, he's there's a couple stories of him throughout throughout t

[applause] >> at evening, everyone and thank you for joining the event hosted by institute of politics service at the school of public policy. known to many of you as you politics. tonight we are excited about the inaugural event for our new series called cease fire, where we will prior foot -- prioritize dialogue over debate. for tonight's inagural cease fire event, we feature former atlanta mayor keisha lance bottoms and former congressman trey gowdy. in one of the most pressing conversations of our time, the urban-rural divide. please join the conversation on social media. >> thank you everybody. emily is a very smart democrat and i am a lot smarter republican from new york. it really fits our speakers well to show how people from different backgrounds can come together for an productive conversation. with that, we would like to introduce our special guest tonight. keisha lance bottoms served as the mayor of atlanta, georgia. she became the first mayor in atlanta has history to ser

but i understood that it is a privilege i get my coming to school like georgetown.my question to you would be what do i get to go home and tell my family or friends back home who want a day-to-day basis don't see or meet rural people, what do i tell them to do to bridge the divide on their own personal intellectual level? fmr. rep. gowdy: is there any chance you are going to want to be a lawyer in life? >> possibly. fmr. rep. gowdy: the best lawyers are the ones who are always one fact away from changing his or her mind. there are very few people in the world, i was in dallas and i said, i am one fact away from changing my mind on any issue. that was not a popular thing to say. they view that as a lack of conviction, a lack of you really believing something. lawyers should always be one fact. it needs to be good fact. so, i would ask people in my family or in my sphere, if you want to be the most knowledgeable person you can be, use an example, if you don't know anybody who voted for president obama who would you ask other than someone who did? i don't know the peop

you know show, shall i say there's georgetown university. the reason why georgetown university stands today is because of the fail by the judge with who own george. so university of over $272.00 black men, women and children and babies. ok to keep georgetown from going into bankruptcy. they have just car for one. i'm going show proof mill, you know bill you, but i think a lot of money to set aside to begin to a troll for that. but basically it is the better government with a bill that it's on the table today. h r, what the commission to study and develop reprobation proposals for african americans at which is the piece or is, was on so shall we say it is the in to everything. you have the federal government, you have the state government, local governments, academic and religious institutions, and industries, and corporations of probably a state what the goal that the federal government played, and they're on the situation that they left them and they must apologize that they might compensate you know, they must allow for that satisfaction.

and they say that georgetown students trashed mr.2 saying, you can see here. this is the massive group. this is video from the sunrise this morning of the glass of 2022 of georgetown going there and gathering. this source says it's a georgetown tradition, however, what's not a tradition, is to leave this hallowed memorial an absolute mess as the national park service had to clean it up. it's a $58,000 tuition to go there. you would think they would have learned in their four years of instruction some decency and respect for our memorials here in washington. aishah: i agree and everybody is talking about this on twitter and some people are trying to defend georgetown university and saying look, the students have now graduated and it was a private party, it's not the university's fault. but you know, somebody tweeted, it's called adulting. so blame the students. isn't it also called adulting to pay your student loans? that's a national conversation happening. how do people feel story for students when they do stuff like that? georgetow

it's not the clinic is a professor of government and foreign service at georgetown university. could help you with this back on the program. mister craig saying gate and doing it to 2 very different matters. in general terms, how easy is it to liquidate assets from a state seizure? well, this is possible, as you pointed out of your program, and this is something the united states to use before to go against the law country, of course. so the decorative or congress can't do this arbitrarily. but when you have a large bipartisan support for something like we do now with ukraine, and i think there are ways that congress can pass laws that could make this happen quite soon. so i suspect that we will see to make sure the property and inappropriately. so how does the confiscation and sale of such assets differ? when sort of the u. s. in this case, suggest the funds we sent directly back to the you go back to you. crane is, is it easier said than done as an easy process dollar package of military agents in the past few days. so essentially what the proposed legislation from humor woul

corruption senior fellow at the council of foreign relations and professor of international affairs at georgetown university professor captain. it's a very rare treat for me these days to speak to western experts for form officials like yourself. i'm very, very grateful for this opportunity, but i also have to ask you, why did you decide to talk to r t given the in, you know, the potential academic and professional repercussions that you may face? well, i'm some one who believes that we should keep the corridors of communication, even as the relationship between russia and the united states gets worse and worse, even as the war goes on and casualties continue to mount. i think that that, you know, dialogue is always better than no dialogue. so that's why i'm sitting here, having this conversation with you. thank you for that. and the previous time i interviewed you was, i think, in the summer of 2017, when we thought that the relationship in russia in the united states, the lowest point after crimea, and all these pseudo russian mythology surrounding the trump administration. this is the way seen

have no right to touch that money have twice as many houses in this county and tennessee as in georgetown neither you nor any other members without ever appropriating a dollar for relief. he informed crockett if he chose sympathy by giving one week pay then it would cover the cost but it was easier simply to give other people's money. he continued they no doubt applauded you for relieving them from the necessity of giving for what was not yours atto give. people delegated congress the power to certain things. and authorized to collect and pay money and for nothing else. and then what i consider a vital point for when congress begins to stretch over there is no limit but today we are faced with a greater some and 20000 that $40 billion to be gifted to ukraine. a noble cause no doubt of which we have great sympathy and support but a cause for which the constitution does not a sanction or approve of. we could ask if each member of the senate would like to contribute individually to ukraine. but of course that would serve to demonstrate the enormity of the gift. to come up with $40 billion ea

we are all graduating with a master's degree in arab studies from georgetown university. and we've spent the past 2 years learning about the colonial projects in the arab world. and in particular, the colonial project that is the state of israel. i myself as a palestinian american, of course, have a very intimate understanding of what israel inflicts on palestinians as my grandparents are survivors of the night. and my parents have, you know, lived the lives of palestinian refugees. so for us, kind of the moment we knew that lincoln was the speaker. we knew for a fact that we were going to send him a message. and it just so happened that a few days later, unfortunately, the world was shocked with the news regarding the murder of city walk there. and that to us gave us a very direct compass in which to point our concerns to. so we were, so we were, you know, protesting not only the incompetent u. s roll and the region. and the frankly tooth risk, toothless remarks that united states has in regards to someone who is an american citizen being murdered by a foreign army that

he is an associate professor of history at georgetown university here in katara. thank you for coming into the studio. people hasn't been thank people have grown up watching, sharing cover these, these huge events in the history of palestine and the palestinian struggle. how important is that the witnessing of this? i mean, i think her contribution has been absolutely immense. you know, not to, to kind of over stress the point, but she's been covering these events going back decades to the point that she's brought, the palestinian struggle into the lives of millions and millions of people worldwide . especially given that this was really the 1st truly global news network that was showing things from the perspective of people living there on the ground. i think it's also important to, to keep in mind that not only was she covering the obvious, the wars, the, the frequent assaults on gaza, people in the west bank, but she's, she's there covering the daily attacks on people. she's covering the daily struggles with ethnic cleansing, with the expansion of settlements o

. >> georgetown university held a conversation about this topic this week with former atlanta mayor,ocrat and former south carolina republican congressman, here's what the twotr of them hd to say about the urban rural divide. urban/rural divide. >> i think the biggest myth to understanding is we are not the enemy. we are not full of criminals and drug addicts and people who wish to wreak havoc on society. i base this upon the way that the city of atlanta is often vilified in the state of georgia. we are a blue city in a red it's often said there's atlanta in there and the rest of georgia it's that big of a divide but the reality is, we care about all the same things, we want big communities, access to healthcare. we want to send our kids to great schools. i think we have more in common than not but i think that's the biggest conception that these are the enemies and we are takers and not givers. >> think l human nature and to an us versus them. often times, like we were in the green room, it is good-natured. there was a reference to somebody being from up north, somebody -- that some

why can't be a black guy in georgetown? you we talk about coaching and and you know, where do we stand now? and in particular, why don't we seeing the advancement? i want to stop and you know, we criticize the numbers but i feel like we don't do a good enough job of praising when the right thing is done and if you look at the tampa bay buccaneers, they've had three black head coaches in their history and they just want a super bowl last year with the staff that bruce arians very purposefully had filled out with black coordinators at all, the three major coordinating positions in addition to two female coaches when he had one in arizona. he said, you know what that's not just do one. let's do two so we very purposely built this diverse staff wins a super bowl with it and yet it doesn't lead to any wave of hiring right here. we had those same coaching staff in the semifinals of the nfl playoffs we have that's frasier, right, you know bringing morris like we've got all these coaches succeeding the class and of course eric the

this morning but foxnews has reached out to georgetown university for a comment.t of things i would like to say. nate foy i will keep it quiet, thanks nay. hillary clinton has always had a baltimore like status of she who must not be named in a scandal. here is her campaign manager, effectively dropping the dime on his former boss and sank look, she approved it. she knew about it. the reason that is important is this claim was utterly ridiculous. jon: constitutional law attorney sounding off on hillary's one-time campaign manager two appears to have caught both sides by surprise during yesterday's specimen trial. robby mook testified that kennett clinton approved given that media materials alleging a covid communications channel between the trump organization and a russian bank. this, despite campaign officials not being totally confident in the legitimacy of the data. so could this revelation further damage democrats in the midterm elections? let's ring in white house reporter for real clear politics. it is really interesting to hear what went on here for this is

host: from georgetown university.ant you all to think about that and get your reaction to what you just heard there on the economic drivers. perhaps that is why you think there is an urban/rural divide. there are the lines on your screen. we have divided them. we will go to kelvin in maryland. hi, kelvin. caller: yes, can you hear me? host: we can. go ahead. caller: thank you. first time caller, and i am an avid c-span watcher. and of the things i see -- i am a veteran of the united states navy and i have been able to travel around the world, around our country. the divide, i believe, comes from us as people not, you know, -- there is groups of people i know have never been out of the urban community. groups of people that have never been out of there rural areas -- their rural areas. if they had the opportunity to mingle with people in the cities or mingle with people in the country, i think they will find out that we have more in common than the fear that, you know, i have to go into the city to get a job. i really

white house and a quiet dinner then go out and shake hands and talk to a bunch of rich fork from georgetown so, he got a bad check from the media in general. and you mentioned james fallows who was a very young man in his 20s. for two years, and the first two years in the administration, he was the chief speech writer. but his real ambition was to break into magically journalism and after two years, he left and his very first piece as a staff writer for the atlantic was it long, long exposÉ as such, entitled, the passionist presidency. and it was a, sort of, psychological investigation of jimmy carter and rather thin in my opinion! [laughs] but it did, as you say, it did real damage to the carter presidency at a moment in 1979 when he was facing long gas lines and a lot of criticism over many issues and it's sort of that piece gave a greenlight to the rest of the press that it was okay to dump on the carter presidency, that there was something wrong, fallows suggestion. and you know, george paul and hamilton jordan and carter himself regarded this article as a step in the back and betrayal

geoff: georgetown law school professor christy lopez, thank you for your time and your insights.: thanks so much. ♪ judy: the results from georgia's primary elections yesterday are the most high-profile rebuke of former president donald trump's chosen candidates so far this season. two republican incumbents, who both stood up for the 2020 election results, survived primary challenges. georgia's secretary of state brad raffensperger, whom the former president once pleaded with to help find the votes to overturn the 2020 results, won his race. and governor brian kemp easily beat former senator david perdue with more than 70% of the vote. >> even in the middle of a tough primary, conservatives across our state did not listen to the noise. they did not get distracted. they knew our record of fighting and winning for hardworking georgians. judy: governor kemp will face democrat stacey abrams in november, a rematch from four years ago. but yesterday wasn't all bad news for the former president. his pick for the u.s. senate a“ former nfl player herschel walker easily won the nomination.
