lafayette park was just teeming with people. >> a lot of these college kids who were children when 9/heir entire lives were framed around this attack and for osama bin laden to be caught and killed was a catharsis moment for the country. >> we must remain vigilant at home and abroad. >> he saw it as a completion. he shared the fears about well, what's going to come next? ♪ >> the middle east has simply never seen anything like this before. >> the u.s. trying to respond to the dizzying pace of change in the region. not an easy adjustment. >> the young arab men and women found a voice. arab street found a voice and it's a democratic voice. >> we've witnessed an extraordinary change taking place in the middle east and north africa.

were lined up to get in past security outside the white house there on pennsylvania avenue near lafayette parkwhite house is changing any of its plans for the state department for holiday entertaining? >> no. it's really surprising and it is surprising not just to us in the media but people who, you know, have observed this for a long time and watched this administration act very cavalierly with serious issues. it's also surprising to people within the west wing who are taking this more seriously than their bosses. i've talked to people who are incredibly alarmed at the loosey-goosey nature of the public health guidance that administration just continues to flaunt. i mean, this is, i think, an example of the way that trump and the people around him continue to act as if they will not suffer any consequences and, in this case, the reality is, because they have access to the best medical care and treatments that most americans will never get, they don't think that they will pay the price if they get sick. >> well, to be continued. susan page, jeremy peters, jim mussina, thank you for sticking wi

and outside in lafayette park, you could hear the chants, hey, hey, lbj, how many kids did you kill today? that's what presidents endure. that's what that first family endured. and i have never forgotten that. well, president johnson wound up with just telling us what he was trying to accomplish. he talked about his generals. and then he went over to a portrait of lincoln and he pointed to the portrait and he said, i sure hope i have got better generals than he had. he said, you know, doing what's right is easy. knowing what's right is the hard part. and he said that many, many times afterwards. by that time, jack was beside himself. my appointment has been there for eight hours now you have got to get these guys out of here. we said good night, mr. president. we shook his hand and we left. as we approached the northwest gate i turned to muriel and i said boy, muriel, have we got a story tonight. and we hear the pitter-patter of feet behind us. and it was jack chasing us out the white house gate. he caught us just before we got in the street. and he said, everything you said and heard ton

he always insisted on having a studio nearby so the white house, the second floor overlooking lafayette parkwas around that time i was standing behind him admiring his work. this is a landscape. he painted usually from postcards. these landscapes, something ironic about it because probably every brushstroke is for some sort of turbulence he is trying to make sense of. in 1957 many things happened but i was intrigued when i looked at the back of it but it says 1958 to susan. likely a painting that was done during the little rock crisis when eisenhower sent the 100 first airborne division to desegregate little rock high school and escort non-african-americans to start school that september and right after that was sputnik. the soviet union launched its first artificial satellite into space. i look at this painting and think those brushstrokes must have provided some relief during those times of great controversy and crisis. >> host: we will go back to that. people talk about october surprise, 1956 your grandfather got two huge ones. we will go ahead, for the audience if you have any questions

. >> and then there was the violent removal of peaceful protesters from the front of lafayette park nearte house in june. barr stood behind the line of riot police before they moved in, and was then -- there he is. he was seen walking through the park with trump. had protesters removed from the the front of st. john's church for a photo op and then the president goes to the church and holds up the bible. history will truly be the judge of whether he served justice, or served the president. joe biden's message to america, democracy prevailed. but will he be able to fix the damage and division left behind by president trump? say na-na. stop your cough from interrupting, with dq cough and congestion. it's max strength formula coats your throat and provides powerful relief. new dayquil cough and congestion. the maxcoat daytime power through your cough medicine. that life of the party look walk it off look one more mile look reply all look own your look... ...with fewer lines. there's only one botox® cosmetic. it's the only one... ...fda approved... ...to temporarily make frown lines... ...cr

that time, this from a president who made a point in june to go to a church across the street in lafayette parkp. there are reports that the president is weighing a number of different pardons including a possible pardon for edward snowden. he could be on that list. which has several republican members split over whether he deserves one. are these pardons legal? no matter who it is? >> well, these pardons are within the president's power, he can pardon anyone he wants of federal crimes, and snowden and julian assange would be the most controversial probably of the pardons that he issues, because the intelligence community is so upset with their leaks, but at the same time, there are equities that favor these types of pardons, assange is in fact a journalist, in my estimation, what he did was not vastly different than what was done in the pentagon papers, or the panama papers leaks, and edward snowden is not dissimilar to daniel elsburg who is famous in the pentagon papers. so there are inequities on both sides of these things and we will see how the president plays it out. with respect to his c

"we promised we wouldn't a sith's only as good as his word, guys was my helmet not on?" is that why i didn't do the classic voice? also, how many times is trump gonna fire a fbi director and attorney general after pressuring them to do something corrupt? he already did this to comey and jeff sessions who, by the way, is also a monstrous ass [ bleep ]. bill barr and the guy behind child separation aren't corrupt enough for you, you need to do some soul-searching. maybe trump should post on that reddit forum am i the ass [ bleep ] "tldr, my evil henchmen won't go along with a corrupt scheme i cooked up to sabotage the election am i the ass [ bleep ]?" of course, it won't surprise you to learn that trump can't even explain what crime he thinks biden supposedly committed you might remember earlier this year when trump started using the term "obamagate" to describe a mysterious crime that supposedly involved barack obama, biden and clinton

the white house is on the second floor overlooking lafayette park and it was around that time i was standingd him admiring his work rate this as a landscape and i don't know what the scene is but as i said before he painted usually from postcards. these landscapes he did were always -- and it's noted there's something ironic about it because probably every rush drug is full of some kind of turbulence he's trying to make sense. this painting is dated 1957 and in 1957 many things happen. it says to susan, 1958 so that means it's likely a painting that was done during the little rock crisis when eisenhower sent the first airborne division to desegregate little rock high school to escort african-americans to start school that september. right after that was sputnik the soviet union launched its -- the world's first satellite into space but a look at that painting and i say wow those brushstrokes must have provided some relief. there was great controversy in crisis. >> we are going to go back to bed and people talk about october surprises. 1956 your grandfather certainly got two huge ones. we wil
