jon stewart testified before congress and jon steur was very angry why congress wasn't funding these first responders, people that have been serving and working in government for so long, and so was tom o'connor. so he left the fbi and i asked him, what are you going to do? and i said would you want to run for office, maybe, so angry at congress and could you go in and clean things up. and he said, no. i want to do something that has some honor to it, or some meaning and that's a really dangerous thing for me to hear, that someone who is worked -- i think helped people, there's bad fbi agents no question, but this guy spent his career investigating -- he called it evil in all of its forms but -- i sense from him and others a kind of disgust with our political system. disgust with both times the cia and the fbiing divided like the country. a chunk of fbi agent that would love president trump and a chunk that don't like him. same thing in the cia. this long-term government officials are not great, some are bureaucrats, some lazy, but they're needed. we need a lean, effective government

but both pessimism and the best of both worlds is the, jon stewart now my hero said it is thought to be essential any man who knows anything of the world to think ill of it. there is something rather dull and stupid about optimism and too many of our minds. the. it is the incentive to do the ct reasonable, modulated and responsible but without any loss of intellectual brilliance but rather the other way around, and that makes it even more. i congratulate him on his work. [applause] thank you both and congratulations and thank you for being hehere for a great commentary. anything that struck you? [laughter] >> it seems with some of our friends on the right there's the question of women and -- >> eve >> even in the case of tucker carlson. >> it isn't an undercurrent. there are places wre they've had it worse, certainly populm is driven by the f fact that men have had it worse but there's not a lot of discussion about what to make of that fact that men are lagging while women are rising is one that causes the other cover resulting politics best understood through the difference betetwee

jon stewart no i don't think -- allen: no. one thing that would shape lincoln was being a communicator. in this case he was a trial lawyer. he spends virtually all of his professional life as a lawyer trying courses in county courthouses all across the middle of the state of illinois. he enjoys being in a courtroom. he enjoys being in the state house -- in the front of a jury. this is a jury he has to persuade. in these little county courthouses a jury would often be summoned by bystanders. you could have almost anyone standing in a jury box. you had to be able to communicate with them and you had to do it fast. if you cannot make yourself clear and make a clear case of things that you were not going to be a functioning and profitable lawyer for very long. he had to learn how to communicate directly with people. his partner of many years once said that was his very real passion. how to make something crystal clear to people. he said that lincoln would tie himself up in knots in the office and sit there concentrated on how to g

of religion from 1735, singularly important text for natural religion in the 18th century, and jon stewart mill on liberty which today still functions as a major text for people thing about free speech, about libertarian political philosophy, and then he added, and i always wanted to get at president edwards on the will, and i thought yes, go, go. >> so that spoke to you, the third of -- >> it did, but the thing is what this supgted ggested is here's who does not simple police say i read the newspaper and do the crossword puzzle and read the funnies. he's a man who has the ability to ask some very serious questions. it's the part of lincoln we miss because we're so impressed with the folksy political back-slapper, shrewd political wire-puller. that's the lincoln we're most familiar with. we don't often see the lincoln that his closest friends sometimes had a peek into, and that was in some ways a very different lincoln. >> how do you explain lincoln's facility with language? i mean, can you talk about his other attributes. you've talked about several of them, but his ability to deal with c

of basing my theory on the work of deep political thinkers such as john locke and tom paine and jon stewart and ed crane, i'm basing my three on a down again played at all-night giggle sessions in girls boarding schools. my wife told me about this. games called to screw mary. what happened is the girls picked three men, and they go around the room and every girl has to decide which one of the three she would kill, which one she would screw, and which one she would settle down for life and raise a family. i think the example my wife gave when she was telling me about this was i think her example was conan o'brien, david letterman, jay leno. the girls could you like nbc did, kill conan and screw letterman and all the other interns did come and marry jay leno. i'm laughing but then it struck me, that's politics. luckily pick the president of the united states. take this example 1992 presidential election, george h.w. bush, bill clinton, ross perot. kill ross perot. we could hardly avoid screw from bill clinton and we marry kindly old george h.w. bush. the outcome of the game is not always a fo

jon gleeson. ignoring mr. gotti's arm-swinging bravado and violent glares. with his boyish appearance, dark, wavy hair, horn-rimmed glasses and earnest voice, gleeson seemed to enhance the sincere image, a james stewartcter perhaps. >> after six weeks, prosecutor jon gleeson began by trying to dilute the aura effect gotti might have had on the jury. it is about a movie star. it is not a stage. it's a trial, in an american courtroom. gleeson went on to read from the transcripts of fbi bugs that detailed the murders and evidence that gotti was the boss of the gambino crime family. >> jon gleeson. the prosecutor who finally got john gotti would go on to serve as a federal judge in the eastern district of new york. he retired as a judge in 2016. this week, he surfaced again when he wrote an op-ed weighing in on the justice department's bizarre and absolutely unprecedented decision, this past week, to simply drop the prosecution of trump national security advisor mike flynn. despite the fact that justice department prosecutors already secured a guilty plea from mr. flynn, multiple times. retired judge jon gleeson wrote about that this week the department's handling of the flynn case, quote, wreaks of impr
