johnson. during our visit robert caro also spoke at the lbj library for the first time. over the next two hours you'll see parts of that's beach interspersed with Ãbof that speech interspersed with à >> i'd be happy to take questions if anybody has a question they would like to ask. >> keto is how you came to write about lyndon johnson. what was it about him he attracted to come to texas and take on this lifelong challenge. >> that was a terrific question. the question is, what attracted me to lyndon johnson, why did i decide to read about him in the first place? >>him Ãbtaught that in democrac power comes from being elected but he had more power than anyone who was elected any mayor or governor, he held it for 48 years, if i could figure out where he got the power and right about that idea explaining something what attracted me to lyndon johnson as i wanted to do the same thing with national power. i feel that there is no public figure in the old second half of the 20th century as franklin ro

johnson: these are your goals. these are our goals. these are the goals and will be the achievements of the democratic party. these are the goals of this great, rich nation. these are the goals toward which i will lead, if the american people choose to follow. [applause] pres. johnson: for 30 years, year by year, step by step, vote by vote, men of both parties have built a solid foundation for our present prosperity. too many have worked too long and too hard to see this threatened now by policies which promise to undo all that we have done together over all these years. i believe most of the men and women in this hall tonight, and i believe most americans, understand that to reach our goals in our own land, we must work for peace among all lands. [applause] pres. johnson: america's cause is still the cause of all mankind. over the last 4 years, the world has begun to respond to a simple american belief. the belief that strength and courage and responsibility are the keys to peace. [applause] since 1961, under the leadership of that gr

lyndon johnson was growing up, they had the johnson ranch which is 18 miles beyond johnson city, johnson city was little houses with 300 some people but the ranch was 18 miles further up into the hills. lyndon johnson's little brother said the kids were so lonely that he and his brother, they would go down one corner of the ranch, came to down next to what they call the highway but it was just a gravel path. he said he used to go down to the corner of the fence near the road and sit there for hours in the hope that one new person would come by on a horse and carriage so they would have somebody new to talk to. i said this is the loneliness, i grew up in new york. not getting what it means. one of the things i did, i wanted to see what is like to have the whole day with nobody to talk to like the women of the hill country if they didn't have coach. the whole day with no one to talk to, go to sleep and get up the next day with nobody to talk to. i went up in the hills must not on the johnson ranch and did that. what you paid for your listeners was one of the things, little things become bi

johnson city. when lyndon johnson was growing up there there were 360 people there. when i got there there were 372. but as i stood there i realized that really i was looking at something like i had never seen before in its emptiness, its loneliness, its isolation. we were looking in the johnson library as a way to work was i would work from 9 to 5 and then i would drive out each night into the hill country to find one of the people, interview one of the people growing up with lyndon johnson or going to college with lyndon johnson who were part of his first political mission . he died so young in 1973 and i was starting the book in 1976 and most of thepeople were still there who knew him . still living in johnson city so i could talk to them and i thought that would be enough research on his youth and his youth in the hill country because at the time i started there were 17 biographies of lyndon johnson in print and they all had stopped on his youth so i really thought i had enough stuff, i just ne

to andrew johnson and from andrew johnson to other people. that poses a problem right there. we don't have his inner voice. with jefferson you have 18,000 letters he wrote over periods of his life. other kinds of documents. other things. even though he remains an enigma to a lot of people, there is still enough there to sort of craft some sense of what he is thinking, what he is feeling, and who he was. johnson, you are at a disadvantage, because we don't really have that to the same extent. the letters we have that show when he was a young man, show lots of misspellings, phonetic spellings of things. it is difficult to wrap your mind -- it was for me -- difficult to wrap my mind around who he really was, because you just don't have the kind of record you would typically have. it's just not there. it's a big problem. because we don't have lots of his letters, and there is not a huge repository of him explaining what he's doing, we don't have a lot of stories about him. there is another biography. the principal biographer of andrew johnson is a man who unfortunately died last

[laughter] but telling the stories about johnson ruthless as a young man no matter what lyndon johnsonwas like we loved him and it took a while to sink in they were talking about electricity. what does that mean cracks that is turning on a light switch and then you said this is incredible to transform the lives of these people to bring electricity to this area there is no damn for the hydroelectric power. so then they will have to lay tens of thousands of lines to the isolated farmhouses. so to say i will tell the story i also told ina it's hard. want to show what government can do for people. what it's like to be old in america to retire with social security and it's hard to show that because there are cross currents and economic background and other immigrants but here we have the tenth congressional all district cut off from everything. the only thing that changes the avenue congressman lyndon johnson. if i can examine i can show how government can help so constantly that i never thought of this. i want to do this. >> then you start to write about vietnam and a lot of people have sp

i think ambassador johnson should resign. but since he hasn't, i believe the state department needs to recall him back to the united states for two reasons. first of all, ambassador lukens on your show confirmed that ambassador johnson made that request to british officials to move the british open to the trump turnberry resort. and, second, there are multiple allegations that ambassador johnson made racist and sexist comments. you can't -- have these kinds of glasses in a very critical position for u.s. government. >> if in fact the inspector general did investigate those comments that you just described from the ambassador and this matter of potentially soliciting a bribe, as you and your colleague puts it in the letter today to the fbi, if the i.g. has looked into these matters, what's to stop the senior leadership at the state department from burying that inspector general report forever? is there a way that it can be surfaced? obviously it seems to require some fresh investigation it sounds like you and your colleagues a

include lead boris johnson gets his brexit parliament. >> this bill is a lesson of the last parliament and will reject any further delay. >> he labors a new leader. >> he has been found out, he gave a question. >> also on this program, a new short-lived budget, tensions rise with russia and china, the uk's colonial history comes under the spotlight and as new mps make their first, one has struggled to get into politics. >> i was not initially told that the chances someone like me will be very slim and not to either bother trading. >> boris johnson took over from teresa may and july 2019, they are faced the same old problem, a parliament with no majority to push through as a brett enter brexit divorce deal. upon the deadlock he tried and failed to call upon election but he eventually opposition agreed to the balance and got their fingers and as boris johnson swept with an 80 seat majority. and by labor in the north of england, the nice other big winners were the scottish national was scotland's 59 constituencies, it was a dismal showing for the labor ending up with 202 seats down 60 whi

we know what that ambassador johnson did was unethical. what we want to know is was it also illegal? and in this case two of the three elements of solicitation of a bribe have already been. he definitely asked for something of value for donald trump and that's what makes this more suspicious. he may have said something that he should not have said. >> in terms of the state department paper trail there's been a remarkable string of reporting. hoe told washington about the same concerns that he expressed to ambassador johnson. his exact words, quote, i let washington know but also kept detailed notes on my own of what was happening at the time. we also had remarkable and interesting reporting from the associated press that describes multiple state department officials conveying con sercern about this home to washington. home to state department headquaters expressing alarm and concern about these acts. should you and your colleagues in the foreign relations committee or anybody else in congress be able to follow the paper trail if in fact it

boris johnson took over from theresa may injuly johnson took over from theresa may in july 2019 johnsonk over from theresa may injuly 2019 but the johnson took over from theresa may in july 2019 but the new conservative leader faced the same problem. a parliament with no majority to push through his version of the brexit divorce deal. attempting to break the deadlock he tried and failed to call an election but eventually opposition parties agreed to the ballot and got their fingers burnt as borisjohnson is what the victory with an 80 seat majority. many of his new mps won in areas traditionally held by labour in the north of england, known as the redwall. scottish national party with the other big winners with 48 of 59 constituencies. but it was a dismal showing forjeremy corbyn‘s labour party down 60 seats. the liberal democrats, who had helped call the election, gained some but lost more including their leaderjo swinson who was rejected by voters. days later on december 19, the queen came to westminster for her 66th state opening of parliament. although this was a far more dressed dow

johnson may not like some of the things he said that johnson would be very proud to know a of the statureife working on it. i have this fear someday in the afterlife there will be a panel of all the president's i've ever study and each one will be telling what i got wrong. the first person will be lyndon johnson saying and how come that damn book on the kennedy's was twice as long in the book you wrote about me? robert caro. >> is three times as long as anything i've ever written. >> caller: franklin roosevelt's achieved so much such as social security, the sec come federal reserve open market committee and fair labor standards act, fdic, fha, unemployment insurance, g.i. bill, temporary relief jobs to get people through the great depression but i've always believed his best work with his extraordinary leadership during world war ii. my question is how i why was think the roosevelt so effective during world war ii and the country was so unified especially when you compare that to the quagmire in vietnam or the current mess in iraq was it seems because a valid? >> what was the understood i

not so boris johnson. version of the divorce deal has different arrangements the -- arrangements for northern ireland. >> he needs to understand the concerns of the customs in northern ireland. they have the potential for change. he needs to understand the concerns we share because we want to ensure we lead as one nation. >> with the labour party licking its wounds, jeremy corbyn expected parliament could not go on debating the brexit results. but boris johnson guiding the u.k. to deregulation and what he called a proxy deal with donald trump. >> the choice we know face is between keep us -- keeping the highest environment in order to get a future trade deal with the european union, or, slashing food standards to match those of the united states, whether our so-called acceptable levels of rat heads and caprica, maggots in orange juice. it's true. northern ireland is getting a special deal on the right to decide their own future. the prime minister offers scotland nothing. >> the uk's most of validly anti-b

even johnson seemed pleased. then you tell the story about johnson's visit with president truman two months later and commenting on truman's decision, ability to make a decision and then stick with it, not to look back. >> guest: yeah. i think to go to the truman thing, what johnson so honored about truman is when he had to drop the atomic bomb, that he made that decision on the basis of the best facts that were at his disposal. maybe he might have done differently, but he never looked back whereas leadership done johnson in those months and months before he left the presidency would wake up every night and wonder about did the bombs drop in the right place, have i done the right thing. he was tortured by that. and i think what happened that led up to this withdraw was he began to feel the only way the war would come to an end would be if he took himself out of the political process. if he i tried to negotiate a peace, people would say he was just doing it for his next election, and at that point presidents are t

but, you know, lincoln was succeeded in office, of course, by andrew johnson, his vice president who became president when link when was assassinated. in the old view of reconstruction johnson was sort of a hero, he tried to stand up to the radical republicans and tried to keep the south under the control of white americans, the radicals foiled him but he was a defender of the constitution. nowadays johnson is considered -- if not one of the worst, maybe the worst president in american history. there are other contenders for being considered the worst president of american history but johnson with one of them. it was deeply -- he was completely different from lincoln in every way. he was deeply racist. he was stubborn, unable to listen to criticism and unable to change his mind and didn't know how to work with congress, he had no sense of public sentiment. he ended up getting himself impeached the first president tried before the senate and acquitted by the first one to be apeached. inconceivable that lincoln would have gotten himself into that kind of fix. so what might have happene

but i am quite amused rachel johnson hasjust come.ite amused rachel johnson hasjust been and did not have a great time, she said she had to wear her coat even when she was asleep. apparent dig at her brother, if anyone suggests another patriotic state occasion next year, they can ta ke state occasion next year, they can take a hike. i think scotland is the most beautiful country, many parts of the uk are wonderful, but the one thing you cannot guarantee unfortunately as the weather. sunday telegraph, the obese may be told to stay at home with the virus we bounce, quoting a cabinet minister saying that shielding cohort is too broad and you cannot say every fat person has to shield, it will be more subtle. i would rather hope it would be more subtle. it is rather brutal. we know obviously those who are overweight and obese are more at risk of being hospitalised and of dying from covid, interesting theories around the mechanisms of why that would be, because it is not just other risk factors, notjust that they are more likely to have typ

after ambassador johnson went ahead and do it anyway, the episode left mr.unsettled. mr. lukens who served as the acting ambassador before woody johnson arrived emailed officials at the state department to tell them what had happened. now, mr. lukens, i will note, is not in that job anymore. ambassador woody johnson ultimately forced him out. "the times" says it was because mr. lukens said something nice about president obama once. quelle horreur. that's not the explanation i expected in a story like this. but tonight we get to ask lew lukens what happened. because lew lukens, that career diplomat central to that story will join us for his first on-camera interview about all of this live here next. h: at safele committed to taking care of you and your car. >> tech: we'll fix it right with no-contact service you can trust. >> tech: so if you have auto glass damage, stay safe with safelite. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ cranky-pated: a bad mood related to a sluggish gut. miralax is different. it works naturally with the water in your body

johnson from georgia. rep. johnson: thank you. your opening statement reads like it was written by alex jones or roger stone. do you stand by that statement? a.g. barr: yes. sen. johnson: i am sure we can agree on something. we disagree on a whole lot but i'm sure we can agree on the fact that president trump is a prolific tweeter. isn't that correct? a.g. barr: he seems to be. sen. johnson: he tweeted many times about the roger stone sentencing. didn't he? a.g. barr: i don't know how many times. rep. johnson: any times. you are aware of them because you said it hurt you from doing your job. isn't it true that when prosecutors in the roger stone case filed a memo with the court recommending a sentence of 7-9 years in prison, a few hours later president trump tweeted that it was a disgrace. the sentence recommendation was, quote, a disgrace. you are aware of that? a.g. barr: yes. rep. johnson: several hours after that, you filed with the court stating that the sentencing recommendation would be changed and you would be asking for a

>>host: what did you write the johnson book? >> i wasn't going to but he spent so long talking to me about his earlier life and then died and i had all the stuff and i wanted to share it so that became my first book i majored in constitutional law that would not have become a presidential historian if not the privilege of working with him. >>host: there's a story he crawled into bed with you. >> i told the story. he would wake up and he would want to talk. he couldn't bear being alone. even taking a nap he wanted someone outside the room. so sometimes he would come into my room and the morning. i would get up he would bring the covers up to his chin and talk to me. it was a wonderful way to hear about the past with their ability to be a human being as well as president of the united states. he was a very powerful presiden president. >>host: march 31st 1968 this is just under two minutes and then we'll get the story behind his decision. >> i have concluded that i should not permit the presidency to become involved in the partisan

but then ambassador johnson reportedly went ahead and did it. he raised the issue with the british government anyway and delivered this request for a senior british government official. and that scandal, that grade-a example of base-level corruption in government is a matter that is now believed to be included in an investigatory report by the office of the inspector general at the state department. that report, however, has never been released. well, i'm pleased to say that joining us now for the interview, his first since "the "new york times" story broke, is former ambassador and now retired career foreign service officer lewis lukens. he currently is a senior partner with signam global advisers. thanks for making the time. >> thank you. it's a pleasure to be with you. >> i've been summing up the way i understand this story based just on public reporting mostly from "the times" but also a few other outlets. i just want to ask if anything that i've said strikes you as wrong or if i'm looking at any of this the wrong way around or putting the e

but boris johnson spills was terrible, guiding the u.k.o deregulation and what he called a proxy deal with donald trump. >> the choice we know face is between keep us -- keeping the highest environment in order to get a future trade deal with the european union, or, slashing standards to match those of the united states, whether our so-called acceptable levels of peppery gut, medicine orange , medicine paprika orange juice. it's true. northern ireland is getting a special deal on the right to decide their own future. the prime minister offer scotland nothing. valiantk's most anti-brexit parties that it was time to move on. expect inside the use and it is overnight. i will not cease to wipe this opinion. the battle to stop rex is -- the battle to stop brexit is over. they passed the vote fulfilling boris johnson's christmas lunch credits -- pledge. there was a defeat on his premiership, making changes on citizens rights and legal rulings from the eu. but the biggest was over unaccompanied child refugees. britain as a child fleeing the nazis

after ambassador johnson went ahead and do it anyway, the episode left mr. lukens and other diplomats unsettled. mr. lukens who served as the acting ambassador before woody johnson arrived emailed officials at the state department to tell them what had happened. now, mr. lukens, i will note, is not in that job anymore. ambassador woody johnson ultimately forced him out. "the times" says it was because mr. lukens said something nice about president obama once. kel horror. that's not the explanation i expected in a story like this. but tonight we get to ask lew lukens what happened. because lew lukens, that career diplomat central to that story will join us for his first on-camera interview about all of this live here next. here next. pe 2 diabes like emily lower their blood sugar. a majority of adults who took ozempic® reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. here's your a1c. oh! my a1c is under 7!

we know boris johnson to come from the cabinet office.vil service. we know dominic cummings has written a lot about he wa nts to cummings has written a lot about he wants to see changes to the way government works as well, that extends throughout the cabinet. there is the feeling it is hard to get things done. some of that is linked to the coronavirus response, some of it is a broader political ideology that they don't think the civil service was fully behind brexit when the referendum happened and that this rated theresa may. this is all part of the changing of the guard, not just this is all part of the changing of the guard, notjust in politics but in the civil service also. huge pressure on boris johnson in the civil service also. huge pressure on borisjohnson at the moment. the exams fiasco, lots of things as mps go back this week on his agenda. tomorrow is a significant day actually as the uk or england more specifically starts to emerge from lockdown. school is going back, many people going back to work tomorrow because they don't

by the time boris johnson return to work he had a new opponent.erson was elected leader of the opposition. he challenged the prime minister over his handling of the pandemic. he plans to track and trace those with the virus. challenge, aside dashing forward, not estimating the risks. wereo thirds of bills covid-19 had not been contacted, that is a big problem. >> yesterday, the right honorable gentleman was kind enough to say he supported this. today, as i say, i understand the constraints of the profession of which he is to work. backems to be yo-yoing into the position of opposition. as the supporting what we are doing or is he against it? stage, support the next but the prime minister is wrong to reject challenge. 65,000 people have lost their lives. because of covid-19. welcomee minister challenge that could save lives rather than complaining about it. 65,000 deaths of overall. he pursued his argument. lockdown eased in the hairdressers reopened. >> the prime minister must recognize that huge mistakes were made. highlightedgo i early guidance

quite a lot of the connection between boris johnson and donald trump at a personal level.ths ago, that borisjohnson said donald trump has many, many good qualities. but when it comes to the dealings between the two countries, look, the uk—us trade deal has gone completely quiet. the british government and establishment will be thinking of foreign policy going forward, maybe a return to some multilateral institutions, the disengagement that they have seen from the donald trump administration, they hope would return underjoe biden. i think there is a cautionary note because we don't know what would happen ifjoe biden is successful. and it may be he is a little bit more like his predecessor, obama. and in that sense, when it comes to dealing with europe, where would the uk sit, would there still be a bridge between the two? the henry kissinger phrase, "who do i call if i want to speak to europe?" well, angela merkel, it certainly has been. would it necessarily be the uk? even with a joe biden administration, there is no certainty that the sort of uk—us special relationship as

think is very happy with johnson and i don't think johnson in that moment jack drag anything. down if he had a positive impact you helping lincoln sweep the country. i did mention that he did get 212 electoral votes in the end to only 21 for maclean. i should've said that when we show the little board. johnson didn't begin to show a stripes until inauguration day when he showed up drunk for his swearing in and lincoln may have then realized that he had made perhaps the worst mistake in his presidency. >> one final question. did apple math ticks appomattox officially in the war. the jefferson davis officially can see. ? >> jefferson davis was caught a few weeks later in georgia wearing either is weiss raincoat or hoopskirts depending on what cartoonist vilified the scene. what really ended the war in his finality if you don't count juneteenth and the entrance of the union army into galveston to officially end the war. what probably ended it was the following month in may after appomattox when the forces led by general joe johnson surrendered not once, but twice to william t-shi

boris johnson finally got the job he always wanted but the job description had changed. >> i must levelthe british public, more families and many more families are going to lose loved ones before their time. >> the prime minister was almost one of them as a global pandemic landed too close to home, and left him with questions to answer. >> 65000 people have lost their lives because of covid-19, the prime minister challenged that could save lives, rather than complain about it. >> it was a crisis to over ten centuries of tradition to change the way westminster works with unexpected results. >> we are also embracing this, why apologize, why are you not doing -- >> on wednesday afternoon in late january the house minister was summoned to the house of lords to enter an urgent question on what was described as the wuhan coronavirus threat to citizens. it was the third reference of parliament to what was to become a global pandemic that has cost tens of thousands of lives here in the uk, hundreds of thousands worldwide, the minister, lady blackbird tried to reassure peers. >> we are monitorin

n johnson: senator scott: thank you, chairman johnson, for holding this hearing. thank you mr. dejoy for being here. we have had vote by mail for a long time. it has worked really well. i think the post office in florida has done a good job in making sure it has worked. they work hard to make it happen. can you talk about why you are qualified and what background you bring to being postmaster general, why you were picked by -- by the postal service? postmaster dejoy: thank you, senator. i mean, there are two things you could look at. the board will have to speak to their evaluation of me, but i have done -- i think one of the things they like is my experience with large logistical transformations. back in the 1990's, i did a 3 billion-dollar transformation of the postal network regarding mail transfer equipment. i have done big projects with boeing, big projects with disney, big projects with transformation for verizon. that type of experience, i think, and my commitment to public service, i think. i think that impressed them. my engagement in community and in the nation. and w

chairman johnson: senator romney? >> can you hear me? chairman johnson: loud and clear. expressney: i want to appreciation for the thousands of letter carriers. the postal workers have made our e by mail system very successful for the entire nation. assuming that i'm you have been truthful, so i can imagine how frustrating it is to be accused of political motives in your responsibility. at the same time, you can understand that there have been reasons for people to think that you and your colleagues are purposefully acting to suppress voting, or that you will try to prevent ballots from being counted. any surprise at such concerns has to be tempered by the fact that the president has made claims that mail-in voting will be fraudulent, that he does not want to give money to the post office because without money coming cannot have universal mail in voting. putting that aside, let me note contributed toou president trump's campaign, i would note you also contributed to my campaign. some people would say you contributed to both sides.

interestingly, it has not prevented boris johnson performing plus.some quite policies. during the coronavirus pandemic, which is going, and also on key domestic issues like the one that we saw over the exams, over gcse and a—level results. so despite this, interestingly, much of the opposition has come from within his own party and many of them, from what they call the rental seats, the former labour seats, had persuaded borisjohnson to do former labour seats, had persuaded boris johnson to do a u—turn which over time has accumulative effect of looking like a government that is not as strong as it should be with a majority like that or arguably, that is the flexibility, the opposite of what tennis was calling it, when they realise the mistake has been made, they turn it round. jeffrey, might this be a case where an administration comes in in the us system and it appoints the senior officials who will deliver the policy and therefore it gets quite a lot of things done? i noticed for shinzo abe in japan lot of things done? i noticed for shinzo abe inja
