we know john lewis had a magazine in february this year for their staff.ple and it had content in it that was really promoting mermaids ideas. the activist group. yes, it was talking about chest binders and giving advice to potentially trans children and their parents and telling parents how to educate themselves, which is extraordinary , because you extraordinary, because you think, what on earth has that got to do with an in—house publication about selling candles? i have no idea. yes. so this sort of is in the same area, isn't it? but what do you make of that? >> i mean, if you were an employee at john lewis, you would expect to be able to get changed in a female only space. i mean, not too much to ask, is it? >> of course it isn't. and what's so shocking about this is that the staff haven't been consulted at all, and we hear so much about consent. that's like a really big topic in our society. haven't bothered with that. it'll be fine. we're just going to do our activism and you can get on with it. >> yeah. i mean, this is a it's pretty poor form, isn'

[cheers and applause] tonight, we selected the first class of fulbright john lewis civil rights fellowsishing and protecting freedom and equity, not just at home but around the world. there is so much more we are doing to all people walk into a life of generational wealth, to be the providers for the family, the leaders of their communities , dreamers and builders of our nation. in fact, in just four years the leadership of this cbc are making the most significant investment in black americans ever in all of american history. let's be clear. there are old goes in new garments trying to seize your power and extremist coming for your freedoms. making it harder for you to vote and have your vote counted. closing doors of opportunity, attacking affirmative action and the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion. banning books, erasing history. my predecessor called the insurrection it one of the capitol building on january 6 patriots. when peaceful protesters march for justice for george floyd, trump wanted to send in the military, but they would not go. he said immigrants, black and brow

guest: right here the john lewis voting act would cover this and if you are going to have your voting rights bill, then let's have mine as well. host: user on the financial services committee. what did you make of the fed cutting interest rates by a half points, was it the right thing to do? guest: i think it was appropriate. determine has done an outstanding job in my opinion. he managed what was a crisis. interest rates were very hard at one time and he has brought them down and he took them up because he had to to do something about the inflation. it was 14% at one point or more. so to get the inflation down, you increase interest rates because with the interest rates high, people don't spend as much. inflation is because generally speaking by a shortage of products and great demand for those products so people would pay more and as a result the prince of the product goes up. we have seen chairman powell bring the inflation down to what he perceives to be manageable, invisible is two percent. he has brought it down but has not reached your goal but sees it going in the direction. h

and there so this is fairly important to us in terms of the john lewis voter voting rights act yesterday the anniversary yesterday the anniversary motivator this is so important to america. when we passed the bill on when john was still with us and we were in the minority, we wrote the bill in the leader's office would be mine with the congressional black caucus and others who were there to pass a voting rights bill. i see you were there at that time, and any event, the bill passed in the house with like 400 votes. no opposition in the senate was so bipartisan, we walked down the steps that i as the leader of the house democrats. leader of the republicans, the senate. together george signed the bill more only about three years later, the senate decided that our criteria were obsolete and they were going to rewrite and they took it apart. they took it apart. it's a rogue supreme court. i'm telling you. this is a whole other subject that supreme court is going to ballot to, because if we don't have a democratic president is more hard to come with. but no, every category so so not to a fear

it's titled john lewis a life and draws on an interviews with the late congressman and activist. along with approximately 275 others who knew or worked with him, the publisher, simon and schuster, they say that the book, quote, is the definitive biography of a man whose heroism during the civil rights movement helped to bring america a new birth of freedom. also this fall, malcolm gladwell will publish a sequel to his 2000 bestseller, the tipping point. as with the original revenge of the tipping point seeks to understand a variety of social phenomenon and social epidemics. topics include why, in the late 1980s and early nineties, los angeles became the bank robbery capital of the world. and what big cats and clusters of teen suicide have in common? and bestselling author john grisham returns to nonfiction for the first time in more than a decade. mr. grisham teamed up with jim mccloskey for framed astonishing true stories of wrongful convictions. the book includes the stories of americans who were innocent but found guilty and spent years in prison while fighting for exoneration

[cheers and applause] so we who believe in the sacred freedom to vote will finally pass the john lewising rights act and the freedom to vote act. we who believe in the freedom to live safe from gun violence will finally pass universal background laws. so much is on the line in this election. so much is on the line and understand this is not 2016 or 2020, things are different. a lot is the same when we think about the issues and then there is significant differences, the stakes in 2024 are even higher because consider that the united states supreme court recently just basically told the former president that going forward, he will be effectively immune no matter what he does in the white house. [booing] now, just imagine, well, the courts are going to take care of that. we're gonna get them out of, we're gonna elect ourselves and everybody here in november. [cheers and applause] but i mentioned the supreme court ruling because understand what this means. just imagine before there was at least the threat of consequence, understand what it now means and imagine donald trump with no guard

across the country to share the good news but there's more we have to get done, we must pass the john lewis voting right act. [cheers and applause] >> and the freedom to vote act. stop intimidation of the hispanic voters in texas and elsewhere. [cheers and applause] >> let's defend the freedom to choose roe v. wade is the law of the land. [cheers and applause] >> pass comprehensive immigration reform. [cheers and applause] >> not only going to stop extreme maga republicans cutting social security and medicare and medicaid but we will expand and strengthen it. we've capped the cost of insulin for seniors at $35 a month instead of average of $400 a month and starting in january, we are capping total drug costs for seniors at $2,000 a year even for expensive drugs like cancer cost, 10, 12, 14 a year. we will continue to fight to do that for every single american. by the way, our reform not only save lives but saving the average taxpayer $160 billion because medicare doesn't have to amounts to big pharma. the mismanagement of the pandemic, devastated the latino community. trump is a failed busi

how often, very often, yes, often, in her speech at the convention she talked about access to the john lewis voting rights act, we're going to pass it, everybody has a vote, yeah, except their opponents, it seems to me that... it's obviously a big political story, you 're supporting trump, it's a big change in your life, you were a democrat, you're still a democrat, but it also seems to me, as you said at the beginning, i'm an independent, i registered as an independent when there are definitely some differences but where we do see eye to eye we will be looking to get into government together to make sure that these issues are priorities for our country and you know i liked his attitude and maybe we can continue there are some issues there are a lot of issues where we have consent, borders, censorship, wars and that's how our country should be so what is this restructuring that you mentioned at the beginning it does seem like it's about more than just this november yeah i mean that's throughout american history... there's been a series of these realignments, there are history books that have

and we, who believe of the sacred freedom will pass the john lewis voting act and freedom to vote -- [cheers and applause] and we who we believe to live safe from gun violence will finally pass a assault weapons ban and universal background check and red flag laws. [cheers and applause] so much is on the line in this election. and we got this. we got this. this is not 2016 or 2020. the stakes are even higher, because two months ago, the united states supreme court basically told the former president that he will effectively be immune no matter what he does in the white house. [crowd booing] well, here's the thing, the courts will take care of that and take care of that in november, all right? [laughter] imagine what that court ruling means because there might have been at least, the belief there would be the threat of consequence, but now there is an explicit ruling from the court that he would be immune. imagine donald trump with no guardrails? imagine what that would look like. he would vowed he would be a dictator on day one. he will call for the quote termination of the constitut

court in new york at this point, trying to get on the ballot while she was, you know, talking. the john lewis voting rights act, we 're going to pass that, everybody has a vote except their opponents. i think that's obviously a big political story, you 're supporting trump, that's a big change in your life, you were a democrat, you're still a democrat, but i also think, as you said at the beginning, i'm an independent. trying to get into government together to make sure that these issues are priorities for our country, and you know, i liked his attitude, and maybe we can continue, there are some issues , there are many issues where we have agreement, the border, censorship, wars, neocons, forever wars, epidemics, diseases of children, these are the most important issues, there are other issues where we will disagree. with president trump, but he is okay with it, and that is how our country should be. so what is this restructuring that you mentioned at the beginning, it really seems like it is more than just this november? yeah, i mean, there's been a series of these realignments throughout am

know, i was in court in new york trying to get on the ballot while she was, you know, saying, the john lewis voting rights act, we're going to pass it. you know, we were going to set up a government. unity with the independents, it's not quite the typical endorsement, it's like abraham lincoln's rival team, where we might continue to disagree publicly on some things, but where we agree, we'll seek to get into government together to make sure that those issues are priorities for our country, and you know, i liked his attitude, and maybe we can continue, there are some issues, there are a lot of issues where we have consent, the border, censorship, wars, not conservatives, perpetual wars, epidemics of disease in children - that's the most important issues, there are other issues that we will disagree with president trump on, but he is okay with that, and that should be ours. so what is this realignment that you mentioned at the beginning, does it really seem like it's more than just this november? yeah, i mean, there's been a series of these realignments throughout american history, there are

following the post nightclub shooting in 2016 she joined john lewis for a sit in on the house floor demanding action on gun violence. she introduced numerous pieces of legislation to address the crisis. earlier this year she brought together survivors, advocates, policymakers and researchers to release the 2024 kelly report which charts a path forward for meaningful change. it was an honor to stand with her at her press conference. on the 10th anniversary of the original kelly report i think it is only fitting she is here to welcome everyone to the 10th annual gun violence prevention summit. please help in welcoming congressman kelly -- congresswoman kelly. [applause] >> thank you so much and thank you all for being here as agents of change to end gun violence once and for all. thank you for being a partner in the struggle was helping banned policies that will save families. gun violence is the reason i ran for congress. i refused to stand by us children were being torn apart from their families and congress did nothing. i received an f from my -- from the nra, one of my proud f's in my life.

h.r. 14, the john r. lewis voting rights advancement act strengthens voting rights by expanding and strengthening government's ability to respond to voting discrimination. defending the right to vote is defending our communities. let me say that again. defending the right to vote is defending our communities. and so i will continue resisting and challenging any attempt from extremists in our government to undermine our democracy and erode our rights. we all have a role to play to get engaged, to register people to vote, to serve as election judges, to combat misinformation, and we have to fight for the democracy that we deserve. and there's an organization that's been doing this work around the clock, defending democracy, and that is midwest voting rights program of the chicago lawyers committee for civil rights. this vital initiative focuses on ensuring fair access to the vote and upholding election laws. through their election protection program and litigation they provide critical resources on election day.

to simply getting by and of course we need to pass the women's health protection act and the john robert lewis voting rights act along with the freedom to vote act so we can both defend democracy and defend our freedom. thanks. >> misinformation is going to be a big issue this campaign cycle and we have already seen a lot of it. we have seen lies being told about haitian migrants in ohio and also lies being told about senator jd vance and a relationship with the couch. >> i have not really follow that couch situation. i have stayed away from that one. >> have you had talks with people about seeing something online and exaggerating or sharing it? >> we want to keep the focus on issues related to making a difference in the lives of the american people, lowering costs, addressing the housing affordability crisis, growing the middle-class, fighting for reproductive freedom, and defending democracy. we also will contrast that with the republican agenda, which is a nationwide abortion ban, trump's project 2025, and massive tax cuts for big corporations. there's no need for us ever to engage in consp

. >> we are forcefully working to pass the for the people act the john lewis voting rights act and i'm working to help ensure that all americans know what they get when they vote to further encourage them to vote, knowing that it will make it difference in their lives. >> one reason i think vice president harris sought to take on voting rights as an issue is because she wanted a signature policy issue that related specifically to black communities and some of the groups that helped push the biden administration to choose are in the first place. but because of the realities the senate and the house, it was never very likely to pass despite an aggressive campaign from vice president harris and president biden, congress failed to pass the voting rights bills. the motion is not agreed to. >> so rather than being a signature accomplishment, i think the issue function in the first couple of years as a signature failure harris promises as president, she'll keep pushing when i am president, we are going to finally pass the john lewis voting rights act committed to voting rights and democracy r

and so as an example, let us finally pass the john lewis voting rights act and the freedom to vote act. let us finally pass an assault weapons ban and universal background checks and red flag laws. because we are clear on that point, it is a false choice to say you are either in favor of the second amendment or you want to take everyone's guns away. i am in favor of the second amendment and i know we need reasonable gun safety laws in our country. [cheers and applause] and there is another point that i would like to stress about this election in 2024. this is not 2016 or 2020. the stakes are even higher this time. for a number of reasons, but i'm going to mention one in particular. what the supreme court recently did when they basically just told the former president that going forward, he will effectively be immune no matter what he does in the white house. [booing] but let's take this seriously and understand what it means. before there might've been the threat that there would be consequence and accountability. with that ruling, what this means is almost explicitly he has been told

it is time for us to create those standards and the john lewis voting rights advancement act would gobecome a chaotic environment around the right to vote. voters should not, each time they go to the polls should not say has the law changed? do i need something? you are going to turn this into people bringing a briefcase of records to the polls. you are going to turn it into an election where people get frustrated. we need access to that valid box. early voting, vote by mail. it has been demonstrated time and time again that america and its states can expand the right to vote and have free, fair, and honest elections. >> i will point as to what you showed us, you are speaking to the "chicago sun-times" arguing your point. let me quickly ask you about the new polling numbers released today, abc that shows vice president harris is getting support from women after the dnc. harris is leading by 13 points among female voters. it is a seven point increase from before the convention. how significant is this, how does it change the trajectory of this campaign? >> alex, let me offer some perso

bush saying to john lewis let's work together on reauthorizing the voting rights act but lewis is thene who bought into this as was clyburn. so we have to have leaders who say let's put some of the politics asidehe and look at wht is best for the country and set the tone from the top. >> i would point out john kerry conceded the election al gore conceded the election. that is the difference here. when people speak it is a fundamental need to yield to the will of the people. there's house the democrats. >> they tell you they went over to him the g election. >> the point is the candidate conceded al gore presided over the vote of the certification of the vote. we need that from our leaders. >> what are you worried could happen iff donald trump loses this election? is it the worst? like snow because of this time around everyone it will be forewarned and forearmed. there is no way there's going to be -- mcdavid designated januarl meet to receive the results of the electric college is a national security event. there will be plenty of preparations. not going to stand for regardless of who

end with a quote from one of my heroes who unfortunately i did not get to serve in congress with, john lewis. democracy is not a state. it's an action that requires every generation to do its parts to build the beloved community. democracy in and of itself but to what are we going to do with the democracy? the government bought for the people the people who participates i get the perspective hurt and have their needs met. the people sit at home and complain don't. and so with this conversation whether it's a perception or reality, this conversation here today is to see how do we ensure that all of our perspectives as a black community going to thank and 100 black men incorporated for partnering on this important panel and i'm turning it back over to introduce her panelist. >> thank you governor i met congresswoman mccullough. those in virginia know that's another conversation. next up we are going to have our national chairman from 100 black men. he went to give him a round of applause please. ask as mr. jones is coming to the point if we do have our panelist, take their seats please. if you

the john lewis generation had to do it. because, they saw emmett till being murdered. 4 they could not wait for a bill to pass. they had to do it. i think the same tradition of a revolutionary that went into a temple one day and it turned over the tables is the same level of resistance and resilience that gen z has. so, move us out of the way. it's your time. turn the tables over. >> well said. >> i am trying to think of what i want to leave you guys with. we have less than 50 days, ok? leave it all on the field. >> after what happened to our vice mayor, i don't want that to happen. i don't want what happened to hillary clinton to happen. if you have an ounce of energy, i thought that maybe i could call and take one person or do one more thing or give five more dollars, do it. i want us to wake up november 6 exhausted and depleted because we did everything we could top of the ticket and down ballot. >> well said. >> wonderful energy here today. taking it, harnessing it, talking to people, having tough conversations. i think

bush saying to john lewis let's work together on reauthorizing the voting rights act. lewis was one of the people who bought into this as was clyburn. we have to have leaders who say let's put some of the politics aside and that what's best for the country and set the tone from the top. >> the thing i would point out is john kerry conceded the election. al gore conceded the election. that's the difference here. >> i agree with that. >> when people speak, it's fundamental, you need to yield to the will of the people -- >> then they will tell 37 house democrats and barbara boxer that. they knew there were not going to overturn the election. >> weldon -- >> the point is the candidate concedes. al gore presided over the vote of the certification of the vote. we need that from our leaders. >> what are you worried could happen if donald trump loses this election? do we see january sex or were? >> no. because this time around everybody will be forewarned, forearmed. there's no way that would be a genuine -- they designate january 6th when the congress will meet to receive the

john lewis revives famous, never knowingly undersold price promise with one key difference.save it. they're just going to use ai save it. they're just going to use al to sort of scour all the websites. okay that's that's the key difference. >> great. that's the story. thank you so much. did you miss it? did you miss the never i never actually understood i understand it's a price guarantee. yeah i don't understand the phrase never knowingly undersold. what? nick? what does it mean ? well, they what does it mean? well, they never knowingly. knowingly. >> no, they missed an opportunity just to bring it back as knowingly undersold, didn't they? that would just be kind of edgy. like we're owning it. yeah. yeah yeah, we're deliberately trying to rip you off. >> oh. did we give you the. did you upsell us? you know? >> yeah, yeah, that's all i got on that. >> no, no. >> no, no. >> but i mean i wonder a great story, to be fair. okay. i've done my best with it . done my best with it. >> nick's all upset with my comment earlier. >> i feel like it's maybe the world's turning when john l
