i'm john thomas. this is in mind visions. and today we're discovering of the world of a such and culture the, the, the, we are heading to the city of the dead. a mysterious medieval village called the gods did as heaped in miss and legends in years gone by. it was claimed. those who visited would never emerge on life. but we'll take our chances. the 1st place is fascinating. there's an incredible energy here. it kind of feels like we're going back into the ancient times, if you will. where are we exactly? what is this place? as a matter of fact, this is an ancient or medieval symmetry. but the way it is arranged is absolutely unusual. what we have here uh the so called volts. they were supposed to be it too and the houses for the deceased and the i believe the all the things that have flo will roll but it to and it to uh, impressing i have reducing the gets into the, under the influence. now in terms of cities of the dead, this gorgeous one of the biggest in a set you in terms of the crypt themselves inside some of the people

i'm john thomas. this isn't my vision. and today we're discovering of the world of a southern culture.

since the beginning of time itself, where everything has a special symbolic meaning, i'm john thomas. this is in my vision. and today we're discovering of the world of a subject culture the we want to talk to somebody now because he's an expert on the people to be beaten that didn't yahoo hates wants to kill and wants to destroy their entire civilization. i mean, i don't think there's a better way for me to explain this. we're going to be joined by somebody who has worked at the university of, of sterling bus year side is also a officer who wrote a book. and this is why i think he makes a perfect guess for what we're going to be talking about. his book is called his bola and the politics of remembrance. you know, it's interesting the bus year because here in the united states and in the west, when we talk about the as bowler, it's always referred to us as a terrorist organization, a militia group of all kinds of negative connotations. even with people who try to remain neutral, they still use language that makes it sound like uh, you know, it's, it's, it's kind of an evil organization

based on the works of richard's adversary john, thomas smore wrote a history of richard ii, which shakespeare as the factual basis for his play. thanks to this great tragedy, richard, whose coat of arms bore the motto "loyalty makes me firm," became the embodiment of betrayal and villainy. 145 years ago, on august 22, 1879, the outstanding russian actor, people's artist of the rsfsr nikolai nikolaevich rybnikov was born. he played his best roles on the stage of the maly theater, as well as in the films the ice house, the last night, and goglevsky's adaptation of the inspector general. 85 years ago, on august 22, 1939 , the remarkable writer and storyteller sergei kozlov was born. he is known as the author of the fairy tale hedgehog in the fog, based on which yuri narshtein filmed his most famous cartoon. he also wrote all the stories about the lion cub and the turtle, which sang a song he had composed. i lie in the sun, was the author of scripts for the cartoons tryam zdorovite, zimnyaya skazka, autumnnye skory. kozlov was unlike anyone else, a unique, one-of-a-kind writer, an intelligent, pr

to set things straight about the creative vision of the opening shows director to immeasurably thomas john lee took inspiration from leonardo da vinci's famous painting to create the settings and olympic spokes person admitted to the post in a statement on saturday, referring to the opening ceremony creative director, nice hair splitting there. it wasn't satirizing the actual dinner, just the painting of it. yeah guys come on now. it's not like jody was resting on jesus version of the last summer, or the actual self fee of the event found in the bible, which is everyone knows is full of color photography. you know, the image that doesn't actually exist with the only widespread one being of the last software coming from vanessa falls painter. dinardo davinci is version of it. so it's not like there are 2 different things. they're really wanting the same. but they argue that love the simpsons and andy warhol did the same thing. they also worked on it. yeah. nice arguments there. that puts the most prestigious and story global sporting events in the world on the level of a tv cartoon. and a p

this was a book by john urschel and a woman d luisa thomas. >> lisa thomas happens to be my daughter.john urschel is really a fascinating guy. he was a professional football player, nfl football player. a lineman for the baltimore ravens. he started - - mostly a backup neman but he started 4-5 games a season. so he's a real football player. but at the same time, he's getting his phd in mathematics at mit. he's a fourth-year student now. he's a math genius. certified math genius. pretty unusual combination. so he's written a book with my daughter luisa called, mind and matter.it's two stories. his discovery of math and his life in football. it's alternating chapters. math and football, math and football. there is a commonality because his fascination with these things. why he was drawn to them how he managed to do both at once. there were a couple years where he was playing in the nfl and going to mit getting his doctorate. i don't quite know how he did that, but he it's a great story. >> we will ask the producer, did recover mind and matter in case people want to see it because i can'

another name in terms of getting rid of the longest serving justices who happen to be clarence thomas, johne every presidential term under the plan gets two justices, so until some of these current ones rotate off, is the court or going to grow and then shrink again? it's unclear. again, term limits going forward would increase confidence in the court. but in addition to what i just said, it would also take a constitutional amendment. i think it's too cute to say you can do it through legislation. paul: all right. so the other, another plank of this is an enforceable ethics code. of course, the supreme court has an ethics code that it enforces itself as a third branch of government. when they say enforceable, there's a lot -- not a lot of detail there as well from the president. the senate has passed a bill out of committee that would put lower court judges in, a panel of them to rule on justices' ethics. what do you make of that? >> well, again, ethics sounds good. who could be against ethics? judges being ethical, not being corrupt, that's all a -- that's great. but when you get to how th

i'm john kerry onto we're speaking with thomas wilcox. he's a whistle blower on the issues of federal and state tax fraud committed by wall street banks and investment firms. tom, thanks again for being with us. thank you. one of the things that has struck me about your case is the fact that it is dragged on for so many years. the whole thing began around 2002 a decade later, in 2012, you were back in the new york state courts arguing that the case was so compelling that you were sure the government and the courts would pick it up. instead, the court dismissed the fraud as speculation without offering up any explanation. tell us about that. so, the 1st issue i will address is a delay from 2002 to 2012. and 2002. the iris had a digital with a whistle blower programs as i've described above. and as the end one whistle blowers testimony indicates i, as i discovered when i tried to file a claim 9 originally started in 2002. no one seemed to be in charge. non in any with any authority seem interested in doing anything. in fact, i will never fo

we didn't look at the fourth one and thisbook by john herschel and a woman named louisa . >> guest: luisa thomas had a great daughter, john herschel is a fascinating guy. he was a professional football player, nfl football player, lineman for the baltimore ravens and he played three yes in the nfl . he was mostly a backup lineman bu he started four or five games ason so 13 games, something like that so he's a real football player but at the same time he is getting his phd in mathematics at mit . he's a fourth year student getting his doctorate next year, using math genius, a ma certified math genius, pretty unusual combination so he's written a book with my daughter called mind and matter and it's two stories. it's his discovery of math in his life and for all and its alternating chapters.and there's a commonality because it's his fascination with these things and why he was drawn to them and how he managed to do both of them at once and there were a couple of years he's playing in the nfl and going to mit and getting a doctorate and i don't know quite how he did that but he did . and it's a ver

here he is assuming this mantle, george washington, thomas jefferson, john f. kennedy. big heroes in our country served in this office. you would think he would say something about america or his spirituality, if there is any, his values, his vision. instead, he resorted to that. so it's the trivalizing of the office that he holds. and again, t the fantasy that h livessy in that he has bigger crowds, bigger votes, and all the rest of that. but the danger that he causes with that because he's the president, and really well-intentioned people trust a president when he speaks. but that president did not understand that a president's words weigh a ton. they weigh a ton. and when they land, they have an impact. and he has a responsibility to do something better instead of making -- if you bet up the reporters he says at a rally, don't worry i will pay your legal fees. and then you mention my husbandn after that terrible assault on my husband, which of course imagine what it feels like when the attacker was coming for me and my husband paid the physical place, we all paid a d

she she she did marry and englishmen named john rolfe and had one son, thomas, who was born england, pocahontas and john rolfe moved back to england. and by the way, she was a big in england. she was the biggest celebrity in london because it was so cool that there was this red indian that had back from from i don't know if they were calling america yet, but had come from america. so it was a very exotic, very exciting for everyone. she did die of disease, of course, nothing. nothing in specific. but her son, thomas came back to to virginia, back to jamestown some years later and rather cleverly had acquired some tobacco seeds from the caribbean and brought them to virginia. and it turned out. it was like the perfect plant for virginia soil at that time. and so the jamestown colony was always on the edge of failure and and literally going away. but when thomas rolfe brought the tobacco from the caribbean, the the colony began to prosper and and then came the the the the colony of virginia and later the commonwealth of virginia, who. let me let me there's another part just kind of fun.

his published biographies and thomas carlyle, mark twain, henry james, charles dickens, john quincy adams, gore vidal and now thomas jefferson. by giving an english professor's kind of attention to the written words jefferson only published one book in his lifetime notesni on the state of virginia but of course jefferson wrote constantly treatises like a summary of north america legal briefs, memorandum, the declaration of independence and above all, letters. thousands of them. which kaplan calls among his most powerful and revealing writers. throughout his master, he brings a skilled biographers attention to how jefferson reveals himself through his writing often without intending to. as kaplan says of the notes on the state of virginia it's a book about jeffersonbo partly because t jefferson didn't wantt to be a book about himself. we meet here is not surprisingly precise and forceful. he also shows jefferson as a writer that is evasive, withholding, anxious, self protective and inconsistent. he shields himself from responsibility in a way. his biography is also a great read in its own

i mean, it is interesting, if you go back and you read it earlier, biographies of john adams or thomasefferson or whatever, it is interesting, obviously, to see how that narrative has changed. i mean, did it take a net to be able to talk about sally hemings properly after, you know, x number of men written about jefferson? i mean, i don't know how i would weigh that. i think we're all a little bit more obviously a little more open minded and open eyed about what we're writing about. i'm not sure would argue that a female biographer brings anything more to the task than does a male biographer. i'll get back to you if i can think of a reason that. hello, my name is jessica is also a fellow from wisconsin. i just wanted to know a little bit about process and sort of working yourself up to talk about some these daunting founding figures because in many ways, you know, i think to myself, man, it would take a ton of confidence to feel qualified to speak on that. so can you talk a little bit about your process and sort of when you feel like learned enough about these people and their stories

he is published biographies of thomas carlyle, mark twain, henry james, charles dickens, john quincy adams, abraham lincoln gore vidal, and now thomas jefferson in his masterly pen. kaplan offers us a biography of thomas jefferson by giving an english professor's kind attention to jefferson's written words. jefferson only published one book in his lifetime notes on the state of virginia. but, of course, jefferson wrote consul treatises like a summary view of the rights of british north america legal briefs, memoranda the declaration of independence, and above all letters, thousands of them, which kaplan calls among his most powerful and revealing writings throughout his masterly pen, kaplan brings a skilled biographers attention to how jefferson reveals himself through his writing, often without without intending to, as kaplan says of notes on the state of virginia. it's a book about jefferson partly because jefferson did not want it to, a book about himself. the jefferson we meet here is not surprisingly learned and forceful. but kaplan also shows this jefferson as a writer who's oft

thomas. that's what the timing here, john and government resumes deportations right after a fatal life attack. or indeed, the timing is important, the hots because it comes at the time when the political debate is centered around deportation. they centered specifically around deporting, failed asylum, see cause, which comes as you correctly mention off the deadly attack in zoning and last weekend. but it's important to stress that this is probably not a direct result of what happened in zoning and these kinds of the port. taishan slides need a wide amount of planning of logistical details here in germany, when it comes to bringing those failed aside. i'm see, it goes to the airport and making sure that all the paper work is correct. it also requires specifically the pay to have it done. it's done a lot of coordination between germany and regional countries because germany does not officially recognize the taliban government. so in order to be able to carry out the specific deforestation sites to a dentist on, it needs to coordinate with some of the regional countries in order to be able to ca

exactly 50 years from the first 4th of july, both thomas jefferson and john adams, who had been conducting who had been political enemies in the 1790s, hadn't spoken. and by about 1810, when jefferson, a retired from the presidency, richard rush acting of state, i think at that time a member of the next generation suggests adams. the white house and he write jefferson and they can be friends again and they carry on this correspondence from braintree, massachusetts, in charlottesville, virginia. they so they they continue on if they vary jefferson isolate himself from from the world pretty much up on top of his little mountain, which is what monticello means in an italian. they madison stays more involved in public affairs. and as a matter of fact is writing. in 1832 as an old man writing against the nullification doctrine that john c calhoun was advancing, that the states south carolina can nullify federal legislation and madison is explaining that neither he in the kentucky in the in the in the virginia resolute actions nor jefferson in the more radical of kentucky resolution of 1798 were

declaration of independence again returning to thomas paine in, first of all, the issues of his american crisis series. the word doesn't appear it was used once by. john adams to his wife, abigail adams, a letter he wrote to her on july 3rd, 1776. but it was really a pamphlet debate that took place between the french, iberia now and thomas. and around 1782 that popularized use of the term. so iberia and i'll use term the revolution of america in title of his work to denounce what he describes as the upheavals taking place, and he described them as being unjustified by any sort of wrongs suffered by americans. paine, who rebutted reynolds, claims as and misinformed, adapted the term to describe the struggle for independence. now, of course, identify, saying the use of a term is one thing defining agreeing on its meaning is quite another so. without a doubt, the revolution was understood first and foremost as a political revolution in the senses that was described earlier during the q&a and the previous session, in the sense that, you know, the americans sever their ties. great britain, then they shrugged off dependance an allegiance to a distant. but i
