he had no avenue of retreat thanks to john carter and the indispensable's. they capture the bridge, they steal third retreat and the fate of the entire regimen which changed the course of history. from there, the army goes back across the delaware thanks to the marblehead men and it's unfortunately a little worse than the trip over because captureded the rum supply and it was a drunken cruise back over and several men fell over but capture most of the regimen in a large stand ofrg arms and then it sets up roughly a week later, the second battle of the creek where washington doesn't necessarily want to fight but his hand is sort of forced by a militia group, but off you associate or switch go a little early without order and washington decides to reinforce them and they hold a key bridge against all odds. the marvel head regiment was hard to tell, he stays with washington. the other group is exhausted and go back but that group is saved, they fight at the battle of princeton they change the course of history. the ten crucial aids that change the crew course o

john garamendi joins us. thank you for being here. you heard him yourself. your gop colleague buddy carterng the situation at the border a complete disaster. he went on to say and he mentioned and we are hearing from border patrol that they are overwhelmed. how would you characterize the situation at the border? >> this is an ongoing issue. it has been with america for many many years, in fact decades. our immigration law is more than 40 years old and doesn't take into account the reality of what we and the world are facing today. we need to write a decent immigration law that accounts for the changes out there. certainly people are leaving guatemala and the triangle because of the violence and hopelessness. this is not new. this is the 4th of july. this is a day when we celebrate america and the greatness of america which is the immigrants that have come here every year. i am going, we need to have an immigration poll i that is rational, that deals with the reality that some places in thele world are very violent. can we deal with those? kamala harris the vice president is doing that. kee

it at any rate i worked for john for five years at a time when there were almost no women involved working in the carter white house for two years as a cabinet secretary and then was a practicing lawyer in the dark years of the reagan administration. i could see many things he did write and then found the opportunity to run for congress where i had grown up and it was kind of daunting because they draw congressional line every 10 years. what i thought was a state democratic seat became a republican seat. i won against the odds. one of my opponents was maureen reagan the daughter of ronald reagan who was then retired and was helping her win however the california democratic party and chose someone else to be my opponent and that other person was far more conservative than not pro-choice. maureen reagan was pro-choice. it was the year of the woman and women double the number of seats in congress. two women were elected from my status senators dianne feinstein and barbara boxer and feinstein is still serving and there i was and it was a great ride. i was gagging on the partisanship and that is why i left.

over the last 30 years, and what john roberts is proposing here with these 79 courts, new judgeships is only a fraction of what's necessary. you know, during the carter administration, congress expanding the courts by a third. that actually is keeping line with the increasing case load since 1990, with the increasing population since 1990. i think we need a much bigger, more robust expansion of the lower courts to really get to this administration of justice. you know, if you don't have your court case heard for years, that has a big impact not only on criminal justice but also on civil justice. these are conversations that have to be happening at the same time as the one we're having right now on supreme court reform. >> and there has been, as you said, jen, bipartisan support for expanding the courts. todd young, a republican, indiana, introduced a bill in the 116th to add 65. it isn't enough. but there is bipartisan support. and even daryl isa introduced a bill. so i think that we can pursue all three points. supreme court, lower court, and get these judges, biden judges confirmed so that we can get rid of the trump stain on the judiciary. >> i th
