became clear to harlan he wasn't to build pull it off. on eight key rollcall, four or five times into the convention harlan through the bristow delegate to the former governor of ohio. so you can imagine the rest of the story. it was not uncommon those days for them to put their campaign managers on supreme court. in fact abraham lincoln did that. in 1877 the first year of the hayes administration is not benjamin briscoe who was appointed john marshall. from 1877 to 1811 might say parenthetically justice in your search when he's on the senate judiciary committee was asked who is your favorite supreme court justice, john marshall harlan. interestingly enough his father named him john marshall after the most significant chief justice in american history. in the hopes his young son might in it going to the supreme court and by golly he did. and the sole dissent in plessy versus ferguson was this. segregation on railcars was constitutionally wrong under the amendments. was the majority unanimous decision in brown versus board of education 58

harlan had a famous law partner named benjamin verso who served inthe grant administration . and harlan thought bristow would be the perfect candidate for president of the united states and only a republican ticket. after eight years of the grant administration which had a lot of problems and scandals, russo was the guy grant brought in to try to clean up the mess. and the mess in those days was the customs house in new york reduce most of the revenue for the government. it may bristow secretary of the treasury after he had been earlier solicitor general. he was the first solicitor general of the united states. so he must've thought i was mister clean. and harlan was his friend for a short time his law partner and i'm sure the two of them talked about it. in those days if you wanted to bepresident you didn't admit it . you have to act like it would be extravagant so the republican convention in cincinnati not too far from the louisville, my hometown and marilyn's hometown at that point so harlan goes to the gop convention in cincinnati with the goal of getting the nomination

she was a young, very ambitious, harlan, and she's one of the best young ones that i have. i have worked with but less than a year into the job, attackers struck it was a saturday morning in june of 2021. that's a monday tasha and her driver were on their way to work. they never made it to the office. bomb exploded, killing them. i had seen on the news that there had been an explosion target coming. and i got 5 and i called colleagues. i was like, what's been going to fit what's nice, not taking help her phone. natasha is older sister, lima lives in the us. after hearing the news that her sister had been killed, she took the 1st flight she could back to cobble. as i shall appear from the face of the work people who were tell me the man. natasha isn't a good place right now. for me was like no, she wanted to live. he had so many dream to live. natasha was born in pakistan where her family sought refuge during the taliban years. i have business her coming to the word from the 1st day of that and she was really happy baby. she was this goofy young kid. the other day i was goin

. >> she is one of harlan renaissance era writer. and this is called flag. pledge allegiance to the flag. they dragged him naked through the muddy streets of feebleminded black boy and the charge upon in aged woman. 1 mile they dragged him a rope around his neck blood he years left dangling from the patriotic hands of oil 17. and to the republic for which it stands. and thenn they hanged his body to a tree below the county judge to pleaded for that flash were stifled by the ruckus howells of men and boys and then to see the blood he spectacle of murder 3000 strong they were one nation indivisible to make detailed complete they built a fire what matters the stuff that they burned was flesh and bone and hair wreaking gasoline with liberty and justice they cut the rope into bits to pass them out for souvenirs the teeth on golden chains to hang around the next of sweethearts, wives, daughters, and for all. host: thank you. >> i love the way that is repurposed a lot of contemporary writers are looking back at these text and doing that same sort of writing it is s

they were examples of criminal behavior,, again, that sense be very much like johnson because after harlan erupts in 64 after 15-year-old high school student is killed by the newark police department, johnson takes, makes the same steps in those obama did. he said this is not about some rights protest. this is criminal, tied to the crime problem, tied to juvenile delinquency. it's meaningless.

this group of dissidents led by harlan carter led a dramatic middle of the night coup of the organization. they went to the annual membership meeting in 1977 and orchestrated a well thought out, carefully devised plan to oust the entire leadership of the nra and replace them with the new dissident hardliners. when they took office they recommitted to political activity and made the second amendment really the heart and soul of the nra. >> when did moses himself, charlton heston, become involved? >> yeah. well charlton heston became one of the great spokesman for the nra. the famous picture from my cold dead hands. one of the things i found not going to directly answer your question, but charlton heston wasn't the first to say from my cold dead hands. what i found in researching "gunfight" among blacks after the civil war, the same attitude was very prevalent, you will only take my gun from my cold dead hands. before the civil war black were always disarmed and never allowed to own guns. during the civil war for the first time southern black get their hands on guns. some serve in the union

john harlan is at the white house. what more are we learning from the president? clear and unequivocal, saying this is not the last strike. >> there's no doubt biden has badly shaken on the attack on thursday that took the lives of 13 u.s. troops and scores of afghans, that is precisely what he did not want to happen as he was trying to complete the extrication of the united states from this 20-year war. he was quite worth right today after meeting with commanders in the situation room saying that it is highly likely that we get hit another time at the kabul airport sometime the next 24 to 36 hours and the embassy issued a statement stg people in the vicinity of the airport to leave because of a specific cell threat. the president is trying to show determination to hit pack at isis-k. you said the planners, facilitate ost as the funny called them, were taken out in that drone strike, in the president's state he said this is not the last, we will continue to hunt down anybody involved and make them pay. the situation on the ground continues to be dangerous and the

john harlan, thank you very much.e house said from 3:00 in the morning to 3:00 this afternoon, 2,000 people were evacuated from kabul. our reporter is at the pentagon for more on the evacuation mission. i think the latest number i oh, ah remeoren was about 350 peopl left in afghanistan. is anyone who want to leave still can? >> they want to get out. that's a key kwavr. >> right. >> there are some who have chosen to stay. there are only three days left of evacuation efforts if the u.s. doesn't wind up sooner, that would be sunday. it's already sunday morning in afghanistan. monday and tuesday. as sam pointed out, this may evolve to covert operations going out beyond kabul to bring american citizens to the airport where it's the evacuation point. i've been tracking flights on web tracking and you can see the c-17 on the ground at kabul airport, one that arrived, as well as two dharp in the air, sbu the troop withdrawal that must scale up to get forces and equipment. is some equipment going to be destroyed? the pentagon

weird mishmash of we've got english history and we've got american history and, you know, as justice harlan once said, the business of constitutional decision-making is figuring out what traditions we adopted and what traditions we broke from. and so when we're doing this sort of history analysis, that's really the question, there's -- i mean, the tradition in england was to disarm what they called papists. well, that's not our tradition, but that's part of the tradition. and so trying to sort that out is the tough part about doing the analogy but it doesn't mean that it can't be done, it just means it's hard. >> can i ask a followup to that too, and that will be for both of you, which is isn't part of the story the extent the founders understood an english common law tradition or to the extent there was a common law tradition? >> i think it raises an important point. one way of reframing heller, a much better way than they actually did probably was, was the second amendment intended to elevate traditional common right law to expressed constitutional provision. and i think the general conse

mishmash of, we've got english history and then we've got american history and, you know, as justice harlann says, the business of constitutional business making is figuring out what traditions we have gone and with traditions we broke from. and so, when we're doing this sort of history analysis, that's really the question. the tradition in england was to disarm what they called,, right? well, that's not our tradition. but that's part of the tradition. and so, trying to sort that out is the tough part about doing the analogy. but it doesn't mean that it can't be done, it just means it's hard. >> can i ask a follow-up to that two and that'll be for both of you. which, is is it part of the story as, well the extent of which the founders understood and english common law tradition and actually to which the extent there which there actually was a common law tradition? >> i think that's a good point to raise because one way of reframing heller, probably a much better way than they actually did was the second amendment intended to elevate traditional common -- to actually express provision, and i

never in my life seen that much water it on tv and i thought i was blown you out, was screaming and harlanor help emergency management officials here in tennessee estimate hundreds of homes could be uninhabitable. waverly, tennessee charles watson, fox news mild temperatures here and a good amount of sunshine greeting us in the bay area. yes we've got some nice weather another day of unseasonably cool air across the bay area. the onshore breeze continues our air quality remains good to moderate that begins to change at least the temperatures as we get into the second part of the week. we're going to heat things up with a summertime warm up coming our way. here's a look at sfo started out with the low clouds the packages all this morning a little bit of fog out there, but right now we've got mostly clear skies over sfo most of the peninsula the east bay has cleared out for the most part on the back side of that hill there, you can see just a little bit of cloud cover when it comes to the air quality around the region we are still good to modern and expected to remain that way for today we'v

never in my life pretty as much water it on tv, and i thought i was thrown out that was screaming and harlan for here uh flood victims in tennessee heartbroken tonight coming coming up, but look at the destruction that they're dealing with tonight. and i'm tracking that smoke in the bay area, plus a warm up as we get towards the middle end of this week we'll have that when i see you back here and university students back on campus and back spending money the welcome change for restaurants and stores in college towns that have been struggling since the start of the pandemic. can you see my wall of smiles? when i first started using genesys technology i was kind of embarrased at all the love and attention i got from my customers. i understand about them. they start including me in their lives. that's helen and her friends. i arranged a wellness retreat for them. look at those ladies. such wisdom. mmm. but it's really genesys that helps me understand people and what they truly need. i'm just glad i can help. subway has so much new, i couldn't fit it all in the last ad... refresh yep, so let me

designer brain that could change the way we actually remember something that happened and will give us harlanble to know whether the memory is a true memory for something that was subsequently edited in rated i can understand how we would want a form of big intelligence picture and keep improving on that intelligence picture so you get a new piece of information you make it more accurate i guess but do not be able to know in your own head, whether this is a true memory or something that got changed along the way. make it worse pretty to insist that it's a memory and even when you're looking at evidence, that's not. what's up with the design of our brains that makes that possible pointed to the first obvious answer to me as art memories are not perfect, it is so fallible, this is not the only instance where brains are not designed well for remembering everything. so there's a strange paradox with memory, someone with a one and 2712 memories of hundred thousand digits of pi, my brain is capable of that i can do that, you can do that. anyone can, and japanese engineer at the age of 69 memorized

i have been all over this country, harlan county.y to help support the minstrel needs for other women. lot of them are turned off because nobody talks to them about politics and where they really are and talks about living wages and healthcare. we did a study with colombia university called unleashing the power of poor and low wealth voters. set it in states like west virginia and across the south. if anybody one to 25, 30% of poor and low wealth people have fought voted, began to vote, politicians will talk to them. the number one reason they said they did not vote is the politician don't say the word -- 55% of poor and low wealth people voted for biden-harris. but we also know that they have the power, 65 million poor and low wealth. 30%. the last election 34 million voted. we touched 2.2 million of them infrequent voters. that left 29 million that did not vote. if the party would start reaching out, we would not have to wonder, could we beat a trump in a west virginia? remember, west virginia has a strong progressive history. that
