kennedy, then congressman from massachusetts has honorable john f. kennedy, congressman from massachusetts. mr. kennedy was never invited as an official representative of a religious organization, nor indeed as the spokesman for the catholic faith. no speaker on that occasion, catholic, jew or protestant was identified by his faith. two days before the dinner occasion, mr. kennedy canceled his engagement, he expressed his regret and stated that since his imminence the cardinal, requested him not to come, he as a loyal son of the church had no other alternative. therefore, it was necessary to destroy the first program and to reprint. >> now i will state, again, the words that i used, the quotation from the reverend poling's book, spokesman or the catholic faith, the book that was produced about a year ago that discussed this incident. secondly, my memory of the incident is quite clear. it's as good as reverend poling's, because when the matter was discussed, he stated the incident took place in 1950. it's only in the last two months that it's come forw

it was john kennedy. that's one reason why john kennedy went to the south pacific, so he was aware from that woman in washington. this was a story that pearson picked up and sent to walter winchel. eventually, they fell out over mccarthy. pearson became a ferocious opponent of mccarthy's. winchel became a supporter a cheerleader for mccarthy. and eventually destroyed winchell's career, but their friendship fell apart as a result of that. >> thank you. interesting. okay. i have one last question if anyone has one more, this is your chance. another question from catherine miller who also says thank you so much. she's working on her thesis and looks forward to using the book this summer. her question is, what were pearson's thoughts on nuclear weapons? and did that change over time? or did he really not think much about nuclear weapons and nuclear policy? >> there is not a lot -- he was a cowarrior to some degree, and he bought the cover story that came out that the intelligence agencies were putting out tha

and you are messing it up but there is another thing about johnson and kennedy in terms of and wanting the agent separate from johnkennedy's romantic peace but separate from that, the other reason was they didn't think the american public wanted a lot of secret service guards around their president, they wanted to feel like they wer every and who waited into a crowd, normal joe say hello to their voters if you have a bunch of security around you, you get the impression you needed to be protected from your own public and they didn't like that and they thought taxpayers would be ticked off so lyndon johnson constantly was trying to cut the secret service project for at least his detail because he thought voters didn't like it. >> is there something ridiculous about that? would rather ata live president with too many people around him that at that president. the job of the secret service is to protect the resident. i find it remarkable the taxpayers wouldn't like this. i'm a little more sympathetic to the argument that we want a private life so whether it john kennedy or michelle obama, who want the secret service to

the strike, and there's a really famous exchange, i can post a link for you online, where bobby kennedy, john'sther, who was seen as the inheriter of the kennedy legacy since john had been killed, he tells the county sheriff to go read the constitution of the united states during the lunch break because the sheriff was arresting strikers preemptively before they had done anything. he was arresting them so they wouldn't do violence. so, that's unconstitutional. so, it's a very famous exchange, but it gives you a sense of why you have kennedy high school. it's remembering the legacy of the kennedy family to advancing the conditions of farm workers. we have a few more minutes left, and i feel, especially from your oral histories, that there's a range of things that still haven't been mentioned, so let me kind of throw some ideas out there and see if this triggers any of your imaginations. so, we've talked about fear, which i thought was very good. we talked about violence. we talked about supporters of the union. where's lydia? there she is. lydia, can you just say a little bit about the oral hist

senator john kennedy is so torqued off by what his colleagues did including by the way they louisiana junior senator colleague bill cassidy said he wanted to come on tonight, so again, he will be with us shortly. there is a heck of a lot of good news out there too, namely democrats are poised for a massive drought to next year. axial reporting that inflation, rising crime, and the border search or positioning republicans for even bigger midterm gains than they would imagine just months ago. and let's not forget, biden's handling of covid. he allowed the peasants to celebrate july 4th, but that was short-lived. one early salvation for democrats, their handling of the coronavirus pandemic is turning into a liability as a delta variant start in school reopening's, a return to mask mandates and a new wave of shutdowns. so now under biden it is back to doom and gloom 24/7. >> you should assume that we are going to see pediatric intensive care units all across the south come completely overwhelmed, and some even a possibility of small intensities of sick adolescentsd kids. >> laura: those t

>> you know, in many ways, i think of john kennedy and the bay of pigs, you know? it unfolded quickly and the president thought that everything would be fine and that was not the case. but president kennedy took responsibility for what took place. i strongly recommend to president biden that he take responsibility and admit the mistakes that were made. he has been, i think, truthful with the american people and he has got continue to be very truthful. we have been through a difficult few days here in afghanistan and he has got to make clear to the american people that as ch commander in chief he is going to continue to protect our national security and that we are going to go after terrorists wherever the hell they are at. he has just got to ensure that the united states of america remains a strong world leader that can work with our allies to try to protect peace and prosperity. that is the message he's got to give the american people and the world because our credibility right now is in question. >> leon panetta, grateful for your time and insights on this import

of john f kennedy administration next slide please. in terms of what you might say were ike's failures. sam alluded to senator joseph mccarthy. anti-communist crusade and and hearings eisenhower was very antimicarthy and really worked behind the scenes which preferred to do. and combating mccarthy, but did not confront mccarthy directly which is still a better debate. they're still being books published even in the last few months of eisenhower's dealings with joe mccarthy of whether he took the right tact or not. so that's one that's not going away anytime soon. he admittedly self did not convert to republican party to what he called his middleweight governing philosophy. and he did not provide moral. rhetorical support in terms of civil rights and as a civil rights leader, it was a little tepid. for example after the brown versus boring supreme court case you didn't say you know, this is the just decision, you know, it's way overdue. he just said the supreme court has spoken and i was warned up hold the law which looked like that he

called "a thousand days" about the presidency of john f. kennedy and another book about president kennedy by ted sorenson just called "kennedy," he thought it put his administration in a really poor light. so he put out a memo to his friends. he said, i just dashed these things off the top of my head. but it's this really kind of detailed memo. we often at work refer to it as ike's top ten. he actually lists 23 things. i just have some of them here on the screen for your consideration. of course he added two states to the union during his presidency. the st. lawrence sea way was built. significantly, the first civil rights bill in 80 years, one in 1957, one in 1960, dealing largely with voting rights, were passed. the most ambitious road program by any nation in all history of course is our interstate highway system. eisenhower did not completely reject the new deal. in fact he really accommodated much of fdr's new deal and harry truman's fair deal. the interstate highway system cost more than all of the new deal social programs and work programs c

i love john kennedy, i'm glad he was president. but you know, in retrospect as i've matured, i'm sure that that election was stolen from richard nixon. but that's the last election that i'm aware of in modern history that might have been stolen. and jose comment that nancy pelosi and maxine waters are always calling broad. i've never seen that. i don't know what newspapers is reading the only thing that they've observed is the fraud that has been purch perpetuated on the democrats by the republicans filing these frivolous lawsuits in pennsylvania and in georgia and elsewhere around the country to try to overturn the legitimate election of 2020, that's the only fraud that has ever ever occurred in relation to this election. okay, so simple question for both of you. why did this man have 300 balance? i open balance and it's back. see where did those come from? real simple. where do you think jan? well, i mean, look at, why did he have guns and drugs? i mean, you know, we have to balance what she going to do with and he's gonna sit th

but that the commissioners on the committee that's investigating the assassination of president john kennedy, the warren commission. we go to the next slide to use his own phrase he was going to be a workhorse, not a show horse. not someone who's going to make his name by things giving speeches on the floor but someone is going to make his name by work on committees and learning the mechanics of congress. he was known for his constituents, that's what we see on the left. he's sitting at his desk reading constituent mail. he had a standing order that all constituent phone calls and letters would be answered within 24 hours. his constituents in his district appreciated that. in 13 elections they return him to congress each time with not less than 61% of the vote. we call it at the library the ford it's an aggressive calendar you might see where he jotted down, not every day but often we would get a sense of his work. for him it was not a monday -- friday job. he was often in the office on saturdays and sundays. they would play in statutory hall with other congressional leaders. and sometimes t

lost the battle for presidency against john f. kennedy in 1960. ran for governor of california and lost. moved to new york city to practice law. and then jumped back into the political arena in 1968. he called it the great game. and he beat democrat hubert humphrey in a tight election that year. so as you can see here, nixon was almost pugilistic. he battled constantly with congress as he sought to expand his executive power. a great example in the book is nixon's aggressive attempt to impound funds in order to thwart pieces of legislation passed by congress that he didn't like. for example, in october of 1972, you see congress was forced to override nixon's veto of amendments to the clean water act. the environment was becoming extremely important in the country at that time. nixon refused to spend this money. he didn't agree with it. he defied congress. ultimately, congress was forced to pass the impoundment control act of 1974 to control these sorts of abuses by nixon and his administration. similarly in 1973, something we see a lot in the late

host: earlier, we spoke about jack kennedy -- john kennedy and david ormsby-gore. how did he play such a critical role in the presidency? mr. ginsberg: it was one of a 25 year friendship. a french of of mutual interest. they both met -- friendship of mutual interest. they loved to talk fast, play fast. they loved to play golf and they loved to argue about what the role of a leader in the democracy was. was it too late -- lead and not worry about the electorates? he said we have to rearm and i don't care if the british are tired of war. or is it too ceded to the wishes of the electorate and hope they come around to the -- or is it to cede to the wishes of the electorate and hope they come around to the right decision? at a time that kennedy has to confront the cuban missile crisis, he has been the beneficiary of ornsby-gore's shrewd advice. he was someone in the bridge foreign ministry who had risen up and negotiated with the soviets. he had over the great window into the mindset of the soviet union. kennedy relied on him when he was running for reelection and then

ainsley: let's bring in louisiana senator john kennedy.equipment that's left over there. u.s. weapons that were sent to afghanistan forces, here are the numbers, 33 blackhawk helicopters, 169 armored personnel carriers, 22, 174 armed humvees and 358, 530 rifle s. the biden administration says it's best to leave it all over there? what do you say? >> i say, ainsley, that what we have witnessed, and i mean, by we, i mean our world, is stunning in competence. breath taking incompetence. the mona lisa of incompetence. now there are good arguments to withdraw. there are good arguments to keep a limited force, air cover in afghanistan but there are no good arguments for what the world has watched. i don't know who president biden had in charge of this thing. it looks like he put gavin newsom in charge of it. we have been, i've talked to three foreign leaders over the past week. they are all pro-american, they are nato allies, they are humiliated. they are angry, and they are scared. they don't understand how we could have this stuff so badly and

and senator john f. kennedy of massachusetts was the candidate of the democrats.tic nominee was elected in one of the closest votes in national history. following the election, president eisenhower invited president-elect kennedy to the white house to plan the orderly transfer of executive powers. after january 21st, 1961, ike retired to his farm near historic gettysburg. upon the completion of half a century of dedicated service to his country as soldier and as president. ♪♪ >>> ladies and gentlemen, mr. walter matthau. >> you will enter the continent of europe and in conjunction with the other united nations undertake operations aimed at the heart of germany and the destruction of her ram forces. this was without a doubt the most difficult assignment ever given to one man. the brilliance with which he
