i'm jim patrick, patrick and company, representing myself and the public. i argued in front of this commission that we should not do this report. so now i'm evaluating some of their recommendations. reposition the rail, so-called rail program. we formed the tjpa a long time ago, which was a ring forking, which is a very thing they're recommending was done a long time ago. redefine the program value proposition. if you look at the tjpa board, what they have on them is caltrain, muni, bart. they have all of these players on the board. that's in position now. rename. yeah. you want to rename it, that's no big deal. drum up support for financing. yes, definitely need to do that. engage the public directly. advance social equity. i'm not for social equity, i'm for building the most efficient railroad system as quickly as we can, that will achieve social equity. so i think we've got the shoe backwards here. this effectively delays this -- it has already delayed this program nine months. we all agree on that. it appears to me it will delay it another 24 months. al

about the context around this, finding out that the secretary of defense, who's been acting patrick shanahan since jim mattis resigned, tell us about this now that it's no longer going forward. >> yeah, patrick shanahan has been acting defense secretary since james mattis resigned last fall, left in december. then patrick shanahan took over. he's this former boeing executive. for so long he languished in that role as acting defense secretary. he and the chief of staff, mick mul mulvaney, pushed the president to nominate him because they said it was affecting his abilities to carry out the job to the best of his ability. then the president announced, yes, he did intend to nominate patrick shap hnahan as the permanent defense secretary. but that never became official. you have to actually sending the paperwork up to capitol hill. there have been questions with whether his background check had been completed, what essentially was tying up his nomination. there was speculation there was a chance it could be withdrawn. now of course we should note that the president privately has been talking very highly o

questions as to how the fbi, when a devoted patrick shanahan -- who was a boeing executive of the time -- when they vetted him, to be deputy defense secretary under jime out at that time and why flags were raised at that time. or if they were raised, why were they ignored? he was confirmed by congress, by the senate, for that deputy position. but now we have a very, very emotional interview that he has given to "the washington post" prior to withdrawing his nomination. and the president announcing that mark esper, the army secretary, would be the acting defense secretary. but now this emotional interview in "the washington post" with patrick shanahan saying that his family and his young adult children will be re-traumatized by these events being played out in public. one would have thought that he would have known that before he took this very public position and accepted the nomination to begin with, because these were public police records and divorce proceedings records that were available to the fbi at the time. but now we know more details about those domestic violence allegations, acting defense secretary shanahan had issued a public statement

jim, earl rutter, former texas football player and legendary coach. but this focuses more on len lomell, who you see there and was mentioned by patrick o'donnell. story doesn't end with the assault and the taking of the pointe. that is why we have to go on to d-day plus one, d-day plus two. as many of you know, the primary mission of taking pointe du hoc was as an observation post, directing the artillery of a gunsry that was six 150-mm that could reach the beaches of omaha and utah beach, and they absolute he had to be destroyed while the first waves were going in on omaha and utah. so that was first mission. the second mission, there was a coastal road that runs behind the point, and there were big hat couldplacements t have reinforced omaha beach as the americans were coming ashore. so they had to take the coastal road. that was the basic challenge. rutter was supposed to get there with three companies of the second battalion, denf, at 6:30 in the morning. s began right away. about a mile off course in the wrong direction, and they had to come on shorting peppered by small arms fire and artillery from the shore as they got to the point. 7:10
