the second party system had yet to be created and it was people like andrew jackson and henry clay and those guys and abraham lincoln. this was a moment of transition where the window was going to happen. the country was approaching its 50th anniversary and that was something of an achievement because everyone knew america was an experiment. that was the word that was often use. did the experiment worked and would we make it toto age 26? and with the values of the founding fathers were to continue on into the new generation? there was a lot of concern about that. even regardless of the sectionalism that were we continuing the story that we started in 1776. monroe invited lafayette under those circumstances that he was a figure of unity. some scholars will use the term a relic of the american revolution. in a positive sense not that he was president but he was a living reminder, a walking reminder of this and probably younger than some of the people here. he showed us the revolution revolution was still around. initially he only visited the 13 states from the colonies and the revolution

and the second party system had yet to be created with people like andrew jackson and henry and those guys, and eventually abraham. so this was a moment of transition where no one knew what was going to happen the country. approaching its 50th anniversary and. that was something of an achievement because everyone knew america was an expert mean. that's the word that was often used. how would the experiment work? would we make it to 1826? and that also would the values of the founding fathers continue on in the generation? so there was a lot of concern about that even regardless of the sectionalism just were we continuing the story that we started in 1776 or so? monroe invited lafayette under. those circumstances that was a figure of unity he was a living and scholars will actually use this term relic of the american revolution as the positive sense that he was decrepit but that he was a living. remind you're a walking reminder in a sixties probably than some of the people here in audience and that he showed us that the revolution was still around initially he was to visit the 13 state

jackson lets one loose down the right side to rashod bateman. that's a 49 yard touchdown. next possession for the ravens derrick henry says well i want to have a little fun. i want to get in the mix here. he takes the handoff at the eight. a few key blocks downfield and he's gone 81 yards for actually getting knocked out of bounds. henry would go for 169 on the game on 15 carries. he also caught a touchdown three plays after that play. it's lamar jackson taking the snap. off to mark andrews for the four yard score for lamar jackson throwing five touchdowns on the night. if you have him on your fantasy team the bucs have fun in the fourth and make it a game. but in the end, it's a 4131 ravens win. chargers making the short road trip to arizona tonight. second quarter cardinals down three. kyler murray with a short pass to the right side greg dortch gets the grab and the touchdown completing the 79 yard drive seven three. arizona chargers with a few field goals. sometimes, though, that's not enough in the fourth. first and ten at the chargers 44. this is the kyler murray many niner fans don't like. he scrambles to the

show of force for lamar jackson and the ravens, while the bengals forced overtime and both sides had some costly mistakes, the ravens pulled it out with a big run from derek henrylikely win against the 49ers. but the biggest upset of the weekend came on the college field. >> touchdown vanderbilt! >> as unranked vanderbilt bested top-seeded alabama. >> vanderbilt takes down number one alabama. >> it was the first time the commodores had defeated the crimson tide since 1984. fans rushing the field and ripping down the goalposts before marching them into the cumberland river. >> unbelievable scenes there. back to the nfl, guys, the vikings and chiefs remain the only undefeated teams the chiefs were playing tonight. so we'll see if that holds, and we're told taylor swift might be there. >> what do sources say? >> sources say, again, in my inside line for the taylor swift team, they tell me. >> thank you, stef. >>> all right. by the way, in just a bit, we will take you inside last night's game with steelers super fan snoop dogg. >>> plus, an incredible night of music stars and surprises on "pop start." highlights on the american music awards 50th anniversary special

but, you know, lamar jackson comes into the building, and what does he do? he has derrick henrylly this meat tenderizer beating up a defense. you have a running attack that can't be stopped. the ravens, who started off really slow, as we talked about on this show, they didn't look great to start, they have surged to, again, an afc north now that looks impressive. >> except for the browns. >> except for the browns. >>> let's turn to the main event, the baseball playoffs. down to the final four. guardians dispatched the tigers. thrilling game over the weekend. they're set up to play the yankees. talk about them in a second. first, dodgers and mets. mets have this magical ride. it's just one game, but they hit a speed bump. the dodgers offense pounded them. the experiment backfired badly in the first inning. what the dodgers got, besides timing hitting, seven good innings from jack flaherty, which rested the bullpen, which they had to use so much against the padres. that's a gigantic advantage for l.a. going forward. >> look, i compared the mets to a wooden roller coaster. what is

we're joined now by the research fellow at the henry jackson society, major andrew fox.od morning andrew. nice to see you. so how problematic is this? if we have an army, we have so few troops. >> it really depends what we want that army to do. how much of a role do we want to play in any future deployment that might be needed, either in europe or elsewhere in the world? we're living in a time of unprecedented instability in the middle east. is certainly wobbly at the moment. we're certainly seeing chinese activity around taiwan. and of course, there's the ukraine war going on. and so whether we want an expeditionary army that's capable of divisional level armoured manoeuvre or whether we want to just be a bit player with some high tech artillery , perhaps, or high tech artillery, perhaps, or the ability to mentor another army's troops . that's the army's troops. that's the decision that the government need to needs to take head on. >> previous defence secretary was here. i'm sure he'd say, andrew. well, look, we concentrate now more on cyber warfare . technology is the
