ethel kennedy went with him. he had protection but people in that state still hated him but the law students wanted him. he went and i mean, the film was great but the background and the students come and he gave a wonderful speech there and got a standing ovation with 6000 students in that auditorium. the delta, the trip in 1967, they would hold field hearings to investigate war on poverty programs, what was happening. one of them was in, near jackson and there's a great picture in the book. he heard about the poverty, the historic project and just, and you wanted to see. again he wanted to see. so he and another senator went with marian wright and peter edelman. marion wright is the reason they went because she came and testified in washington. he had never seen poverty what he saw there, is bad as it was in so many cities. he went back immediately and push to get more federal aid but it had huge impact on him. and horrified him. just kept them going but he wanted the country to see. they had hearings and they

it is a regression of kennedy himself. kennedy is somebody who people think they know. he's this iconic figure. people of written about it. arthur schlesinger is amos book. other people of written about him and about his brother -- famous book. what were the prevailing views of the kennedy, race and civil rights when you started this project and what remained to be said about that? >> great question. the prevailing views were he doesn't seem as central. he is attorney general. people thought he didn't do enough or he did this wrong. he wasn't integrated into the context of african-american struggle in the broader civil rights activities. and then also the challenges in urban areas. it really becomes evident in the late '50s and early '60s with malcolm x and people like that. he really was on the margins, on the margins of the work being done on the civil rights movement. in a way he just, as i tell my students, what you find in the past, is dependent on the question to ask. i was asking different kinds of questions. arthur schlesinger biography is classic, terrific. a n

john kennedy is disgraced it. first of all, that lyndon johnson appointed allen dulles, who was fired by kennedy, the chief of the ca, kennedy, vowing to shatter the ca into a 1000 pieces. dallas was put on the board with the warren commission at 7 people in control that a lot of it controlled all the information coming from the cia to the board, making sure that nothing derogatory or anything about assassinations abroad was mentioned to these other commissioners. that is a big, big difference make. you're right there. and top of that, lyndon johnson has to be looked at as part of a cover up. that's not to say he was in the assassination because we can prove that . but lyndon johnson was about to be fired as vice president, that we know, and he wanted this thing to go away. he didn't, he said, we don't want to war with russia. we don't want to accuse russia that was kind of a excuse to, to a point and a point, the warren commission, they wanted a peaceful transition. that's what they, that was amiss. johnson would

vincent kennedy himself, kennedy is somebody who people think they know.his iconic figure, people have written about him. other people have written about him and his brother. so what were the prevailing views of kennedy and civil rights and we started this project? what remains to be said about that. >> great question. the prevailing views were he does not seem as central people said he didn't do enough he wasn't integrated into the context african-american struggle and civil rights activities. and also the challenges in urban areas become evident he really was on the margins of much of the work done in the civil rights movement. all of these works are great that have been done. as i tell my students, what you find in the past is dependent on the questions you ask. i was asking different kinds of questions. as you mentioned another biographies i learned a lot from, they looked to his life in a different kind of context. now that the book is done, i am surprised all of us commit. i've been working on american history if you seek grassroots it's a different

kennedy: thoughts and prayers. >> hi, kennedy. kennedy: hi. good to have you.arol, i will start with you. is there room in the democrat party for progressives and moderates fighting the way they are over simple things like a very popular infrastructure bill? >> well, it's funny because there's only the two moderates, and i think democrats thought for a long time that they do have a big enough tent to compete9 in red areas or in purple areas and win. ask so when they won these two senate seats, i'm sure they were very excited about that. with that comes compromise, and they're not so big on that. it's funny to me that also senator map chin has drawn the line -- manchin has drawn the line at $1.5 trillion. but, yeah, the moderates really should be asking themselves whether they belong in that party, because i'm not so sure. kennedy: that's interesting. the moderates are the ones saying the progressives are out of their minds, they are holding this whole thing hostage, unless both bills pass, they won't even consider the infrastructure bill. the infrastructure bil

wait a minute it makes me sick to even talk about it and then he calls kennedy out and then kennedy looks to the others to say he is the person you should listen to. he is the one so what it shows is a communication gap. so it went on for three hours and kennedy tried to answer just told him all the things the government has done or failed to do and then there is no real transcript but i did put together with people had with their meeting and at one point and just said it was a total gaff. and said if you don't get it we're in trouble. you and your brother are at the center. and kennedy sat there for three hours and then the people leave and there it is. everybody was shook up was the most sporadic violent encounter. so that happened and people say that change so by 1963 he knew things were awful. but emotionally it was a thing but the one thing that came through and said no. why would i go? . . . . are denying black people rights. so it's a dramatic meeting and i opened the book because i think it is a snapshot of that moment. but two days later they are facing the challenges and the uni

kennedy: yes.y're saying there are only 5,000 people of 14 or 15,000, but they only account for about 5,000 others which means that, you know, there's a pretty massive swath of people who have not been tested or vaccinated for covid who may be in various states or in texas, and that's why you have lawmakers and citizens there who are very upset. and again, there have been progressive members of the press who have taken issue with some of the images of customs and border patrol on horseback using long reins in whatever fashion to wrangle migrants. so now they're saying that they're getting rid of the horses. is it wise for this administration to, if you can't blame trump, blame the horses? >> when you start blaming horses, you've got issues op your policy. listen, the border patrol says definitively they didn't whip nip, no one was hit by the reins. the pictures, obviously, were taken in a way that really upset people on capitol hill and elsewhere, and the administration reacted to that. they were g

i'll give you the documentary, you have robert kennedy son saying that the robot kennedy's 1st reaction to news of the assassination of j. f. k. was to phone the ca, and more or less did they do it? who conducted this hard was his actual cool coming robert kennedy junior. very young. he said that to us, he tells us the story. robert kennedy suspected something on day one. and jackie kennedy and him wrote a note soon after 2 wrote to kusha. in the soviet union telling me that they knew that this was not russian plot to, to kill kennedy. that in fact, it was right wing group in the united states. they sent in the letter and had done this. there was a correspondence between the kennedys and crews. that had been going on before the assassination is an interesting sign angle to put in robert kennedy makes very clear that his father in 68 was running for president on part of that agenda was that he was going to revisit, gonna enact policies that had begun under john, his brother, and then he was among other things, going to look into the assassination again because he never just never believe

so he went and an kennedy went with him. they had some protection but really people in that state still blame him. and he went and i mean, there's the film is great but the background and how he got there and the students, he gave a wonderfulspeech . there and got a standing ovation. 6000 students in that auditorium. so that was another one as you know what the delta, the trip in 1957 they would hold. field hearings investigating poverty programs and one of them was in the jackson and there's a great picture in brooklyn of sandy lou hammer testifying and robert kennedy listening. you heard about the poverty and just the historic project and just, he wanted to see again. he wanted to see so he and another senator went with marian wright and peter edelman, marian wright went and she came and took time in washington and it was, he had never seen poverty like that, as bad as it was. and he went back and immediately pushed to get more federal aid but it had a huge impact on him and it horrified him. it just kept them going but he

kennedy. january 1961 to november 1963. kennedy was a former naval officer.thought he knew something about intelligence. he was also a big fan of the james bond novels written by ian flemming. i've pictured him with his brother, robert kennedy, because the brothers together had great influence on u.s. intelligence. there's a lot to say about u.s. intelligence under kennedy. even though he served less than a full term because, of course, he was assassinated by a pro-cuban american leftist, a disturbed former marine named lee harvey oswald. at the end i'll have some reflections about the assassination. before we get to the main intelligence events of this administration, i want to mention a couple of other developments that are not as spectacular, but still they deserve to be remembered as important milestones in u.s. intelligence history, and they leave a legacy to this day. one of them is the president's daily brief, which was creatd for kennedy as the president's intelligence checklist. when i first came to cia in 1990, i was -- i learned one of the nickname

after kennedy. i repeat the military sector on the intelligence sack iran such and it became clear that you couldn't not get into this. the not can any was cutting bases defense spaces and you know, our country and abroad. it was by their brilliant troops back from afghanistan. i would like to see by no further, we have so much and we have a trillion dollar budget now with the military, basically in the track. so it's a long way to go. but can he hunch that really in an essential way? that's what kennedy was doing. he was by firing the cia and his 2 age kimbell and bissell. you can't believe the shock waves he sent through washington. here he is the young man, after truman and eyes an hour, the young man, 423 years old. we're starting to change things, the way things were done. he did not believe in colonialism. he did not believe in the cold war, and he was moving away from. he had been silvered and he was educated by the bay of pigs, and above all, by the cuban missile crisis. he was a changed man

kennedy's advisors and pro kennedy historians ever since have placed all the blame on cia for its mistake and assumptions and planning for deceiving the president about his chances for success. and on the other hand cia people at the time and cia's defenders ever since but not me have admitted that there were planning errors. but insist the invasion could have been successful. if it had been allowed to work as planned, you know, it's failure. they say is kennedy's fault for canceling that second airstrike for refusing us military support he's blamed for moving the landing site and even for liking covert action too much. the chief cia planner again was richard bissell he was a brilliant man. who also was the project manager for the u2 aircraft and also the follow-on the a12. um, he and director alan dulles had to resign in his memoirs bissell says i sincerely believe that even with the plans false as long as we were able to move ahead with the airstrikes and destroy castro's air force the brigade would still win the day. at least to the extent of establishing a beachhead. and then what? it

kennedy: dr. thank you so much nice to see if he. >> he was well perfume out another crazy case involving one of the most powerful families in south carolina. this one is bananas. today the father, alex murdock was in court on charges, he hired a hitman to kill him for insurance money paid back in june murdock reported found his wife margaret and son murdered at the family's hunting lodge. last week alex resigned from his law firm after he was accused of stealing funds. the next is shot in the head will changing a flat tire. he survived with a flesh wound. on tuesday cops arrested the failed hitman who was allegedly murdock's drug dealer, while for tonight murdock started to police he has been charged with insurance fraud and filing a false police report written out cops to look into the mysterious death of the murdock family housekeeper hit-and-run death back in 2015 and the voting death of it teenage girl in 2019. my god what is going on your cosmic let's meet tonight's party found the suspect b

kennedy. he came to office during the period in which growth was only a little better than today's and his own presidency launched the u.s. on the greatest and longest economic booms in our nations. a mix of tax rates and a strong dollar, it was by the way 5% economic growth. per year. between 1962 and when it ran out of gas and policies changed in 1969. if americans had known this history, we probably would've tried the jfk reagan policy mix years ago. we would've kept tax rates low, we would've maintain a strong dollar, we would've traded stagnation for expansion just as we did in the 20th century. yet, this history has been obscured. today's liberals and progressive act as the tax rates had a meaningful dollar are shockingly far-right policies. that were never put into practice in the 19 sixties and failed in the eighties and can only work in a dream world. but it was democrat kennedy who launched those policies. that, by itself, i think, is a great factor from this book. let me read you ju

kennedy. they looked at how the reduction of tax rates and his faith in douglas contradicted the longstanding principles. >> good evening. my name is lenny golay. we are the owners of the corner book store. we have a new sound system. does it work well? oh, great, wonderful. we are obviously thrilled, honored to be celebrating the publication of jfk and the reagan revolution. we have the two authors with us. a man who needs no introduction, larry kudlow, and brian domitrovic, the assistant professor and chair of the sam houston state university. and the two of them worked on the book together and they will be talking about it together. and we're so thrilled, so honored to have you both here. thank you for coming. should i mention, larry lives across the street and he is a regular customer here at the corner book store. has been for years. >> over 20 years. >> that makes it so much, so special and so personal. so please join me in welcoming larry and brian. thank you. >> thank you very much. ap

kennedy. . every president has january 1961 to november 1963, d most have benefited from kennedy was a former naval t. officer, so he thought he knee something about intelligence. wt he was also a big fan of the well, i mean james bond novels written by ian started the fleming. i have pictured him with his tf brother, robert kennedy, becausa presenting to him a daily intelligent summary, but the pickle and later the pdb was the first specifically presidential product that was tailored to the president's agenda his style and his interests with extremely limited distribution. so this is a major intelligence legacy from the kennedy administration. another very important development was the creation of the defense intelligence agency in october of 1961 further expanding this constellation of agencies. we know another very important development was the creation of the defense intelligence agency in october of 1961, further expanding this constellation of agencies we know as the intelligence community

these are three men that are going to make kennedy great. joe junior russia and now europe and he's been around europe and he's also a dear friend trying to promote them into politics. joe finally gets nominated because their leaking the fact and that he should become the ambassador sorry i missed it he's warning in february 1940 in the news took place december 9, 1937, why there is a delay and i ask about in the book it is still somewhat of a mystery there's a number of different reasons why this could've happened, you have to read the book, he comes to london on march the first and this is the picture of joe on march 8, 1938, he's going into get his credentials in the gentleman second from the left on the uniform is an american in these colonel raymond who did not get along with joe he was his military attachÉ and in his book he said already by this time he said it was on his own verbosity. that's probably the most true statement anybody has ever said about joe, it was constant shooting his mouth off without realizing that the messages got

kennedy met him, earl gray was an aide to robert kennedy, they both brought franklin thomas in and he agreed to have the community part. he didn't like the fact that there was a business group they seemed to be pulling more people. so that got a little testy. and as it worked out, thomas pushed ahead and he really began developing homes, giving people jobs, finding out what the community wanted and really grassroots kind of stuff. to make a plan. and eventually, kennedy found out john doerr was leaving the justice department. and he brought john doerr to work on this side, the development service corporation which is the business and it was john doerr's coming out, john doerr is, he and frank thomas got along famously and eventually frank thomas so it evolved. let's just say that, it evolved but it became a model and martin luther king pointed to it as a model of a project that was run by the community. and to a large extent it was an increasingly, that was not even a question. but again, you needed to raise the money and get the support so there's a terrific book on the bedside proje

kennedy: yeah.and when you add pressure and paranoia like that, your decision making deteriorates as does your judgment, and that's when you start to make mistakes. no matter how good he is, the likelihood that he can exist if on his own without any help from anyone else for months at a time is not likely. kennedy: so we heard that he and a woman were seen in a cell phone store buying a cell phone in florida just a few weeks ago. what was the likelihood that his parents are still in contact with him even if it puts them this legal jeopardy? >> well, that's a tough one because, obviously, they're his parents, and they want to know if he's okay. but i think at this point most people will understand that cell phones can be monitored the, they can be tracked -- kennedy: i don't know. his parents do not seem like they're operating with every card in the deck. do you think brian laundrie's monitoring this? because a lot of sociopaths become obsessed with their cases. when they become the focus of national

kennedy and traveled in very high social circles. in fact, higher than the kennedys. kennedy could not stare him down. he had to listen when dillon spoke. after all, kennedy put him in office as treasury secretary. i thought that was pretty good. sometimes you have to be able to make people listen to you, whatever it takes. in this case, it was money and social standing. me, i take it any way i can get it. good policy is good policy. the main point here again -- this is not a partisan book. i want america to get moving again. we have to turn less than 2% growth over a couple decades back to 3% to 4% growth, which is what we do historically. to get there, we have to take strong, remedial actions, particularly on business tax cuts, to grow the economy as 5% or 6% for several years in order to get us back on track. kennedy and reagan showed proof historically that it can be done. it can be done. since i love america and believe in democracy, i believe we can get it done. we will see. that's our story. happy to take your questions. happy to take your questions, even your

kennedy: there are three of you.ere so much excitement over solutions. that is what governor gavin newsom does not do. i appreciate kevin kiley also relates we need a governor who needs to do something or we have a failed leader. my opinion gavin newsom is fly too. there's a pile of poop he doesn't want to pick up buddies catching a few flies say he's cap solving problems what we need massive state white action from a governor to solve the homeless crisis by the sheriff's corrective got to deal the mental health problem by providing services, providing drug services, providing places where homeless can go so they do not have to wait six months to get it mental health evaluation. they get services today and that we need a governor to lead that change not sit around trying to fear monger larry elder. kennedy: so, just let me ask you this. because there is plenty of a revenue in california paid the surplus. i'm sorry $20 billion. just got $80 billion from the federal government with the covid money. so they have got eno

kennedy: okay. spike?w roughly 10% of the workforce refusing to comply becomes a major problem. we are talking about roughly 50 -- 60% of nba players who aren't vaccinated, we don't even know if they are refusing to get vaccinated but let's say they are, 500 nba players, it goes to show if you have about 10% of the population of the workforce is has i won't get the vaccine, that will lead to problems and if you see this across the board, this would probably mean the vaccine mandate. the people deciding not to get the vaccine are being vilified for not trusting the science and get the director of the cdc went against her own advisory board recommending the booster shot after they voted to recommend simply because there's not enough behind it why are they allowed to a fourth science but we are not allowed to question them for they ignore the signs? be do as a great point. there are nba superstars who won't play at home, they start losing games? i guarantee that's going to change the conversation and the leak
