the magna carta was in washington. but for the first time in quite a while, we started seeing references to that charter. justice thomas: you know, it is interesting. howard had been a small piece from the university of virginia law school on the 350th anniversary of the magna carta. my law clerks, i have quite a -- my formerm, and law clerks and -- with a please stand?

gradually developed into a powerful representative body which forced the king to sign the famous magna carta guaranteeing the rights of the great council. the council later developed into the english parliament in the fourteenth century knights freeman and citizens were admitted the so-called commons the lower chamber is still called the house of commons. in the early fifteenth century the lords in the commons separated into two chambers the form of the present parliament. there is no purely religious tradition in westminster abbey religion and politics have always gone hand in hand. westminster abbey st margaret's and the palace of westminster in all the united kingdom this is probably the most historic spot first among those sites from which the english derive their sense of identity. and the. enter the conflict zone confronting the powerful two years ago the philippines began a brutal war against the drug gangs in which thousands of people died human rights activists and journalists charged the police with illegal killings judges which president detested as vigorously denied our guest thi

they have their own magna carta before magna carta. they fired their prints. they had been elected executive like a president who was not allowed to own property or land in the city. they had a system which persisted in some parts of russia. these are assemblies that people come together to discuss things. i was talking with our colleagues from switzerland. how important that is in switzerland. a bottom-up organization. the swiss were real pioneers of liberty in my opinion. and underappreciated for this. local solutions to local problems and substantially voluntary. we have a problem. we form a community to solve the problem. we don't have to go to the king or someone with power. unfortunately something very bad happens to them. tsarsere overrun by the of muscovy because of a bad military strategy and in particular a bad winter that froze the marches. the armies were able to march right up to the walls of the city. the bills were melted. very important symbols of liberty. also up to the american revolution. the liberty bell. bills meant freedom because they we

we think about magna carta, from which much of the american constitution was derived. particularly article 39. from which we get the principles , due process of law, and trial by jury. they are not just directly translated, but these were the inspirations for it. contrary to what was nationalists might tell you, these are not uniquely english. they are happening all over europe, the golden bowl of hungry, only a few among hundreds of these charters that limit power. their contracts with the king, or the barren, to say, you won't do all of these things. very importantly, if you want money from us, you have to come and ask for our permission, and requested. and we will discuss and debate it. you can just come and take it from us. little digression, russia is the outlier in this way. richard pipes passed away, a great historian of russian civilization, and he says russia is unusual in this way, there's no evidence of law. and i think this is actually because, as i mentioned last night, the mongol conquest extended into russia. when the mongols were treated, -- retreated,

magna carta is where it began. the whole oint if notion is to protect and reassert individual liberty, where would you start? but sort of the first legal radition, the first assertion of that. know, person asked, you what cultural ideas or cultural have ences might influenced you to start thinking direction of your judicial philosophy? were there things in your life that?nformed you about >> i think it's segregation. segregation.as when you lived in a system where the government tells you you walk across a park, you can't drink out of a particular vote, ountain, you can't you can't do this, that's begins thinking certainly for me in the 60s, you can't go to a library. you can't go to a certain school. about the usehink and misuse of governmental power. kid.i'm just a so the first i began to do that i actually as acclimated to reading in the 60s leading me to read ian rand. i'm not saying i understood him onionstarted peeling that o i read fountain head and atlas back in high school and there were other books i read

from magna carta to the industrial revolution you've taken british ideas, forged in competition and made them an exemplary reality for the rest of the world. i hope you will permit me to say that it has played some role in your success. and it had its own version of brexit is 7076. but there are clear similarities between the american fight for independence in the 18th century and the uk desire to govern our own affairs in the 21st. as now, the dissatisfaction stems from the overreach of a remote, unrepresented power embodied by the famous rallying cry of no taxation without representation. thomas paine observed that there is something very absurd in supposing a continent to be perpetually governed by an island. both democratic control people wishing to decide who spends their money, who shapes their destiny and having removed the ruler by voting, it is something equally absurd in supposing our island to be perpetually governed by a continent. also, any kind of vindictive negotiation settlement is not the answer. by contrast, following the war of independence, the extraordinary magnanimo

the days of the divine rights of kings ended with the magna carta in 1215, and centuries later in the wake of the american revolution, a check on the executive was a major foundation of the united states constitution. for it was james madison who may not have had a musical named after him but was a top scholar of his time who wrote in federalist 47, the accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. so what does that warning mean in real life terms today? hearings one example. it means whether people like kelly gregory, an air force veteran, mother, and business owner, who is here from tennessee, and who is living with stage four breast cancer, can afford medical treatment. at a time when the administration is arguing that protections to ensure people with pre-existing conditions can't be kicked off their health insurance are unconstitutional, we cannot and should not confirm a justice who believes the president's views alone carry the day. one opinion i plan to ask about, when judges appoin

canada tweaks dairy a little bit, the president will claim is the greatest agreement since the magna cartacan all move on. but i don't know to what extent the canadian governments, canadian leaders can go along with that kind of charade. does it hurts them domestically. i think the president has much bigger problems than canada. really, when you think about the mueller investigation, the woodward book, the anonymous obscenities, he has huge problems that have nothing to do -- the anonymous ope ed, he has huge problems that have nothing to do with trade, answer is that this is what's going on but this is what we have to deal with. shery: ambassador, thank you. ambassador blanchard: -- the ane ed it's a strange world. vonnie: jim blanchard -- amanda: jim blanchard, joining us from washington. canada's minister of the status of women will join us talk about how to tackle the stereotypes: women back in both the private and the public sector. this is bloomberg. ♪ shery: this is "bloomberg markets," i'm shery ahn in new york. amanda: i'm amanda lang in toronto. canadian prime minister justin tru

going back to the magna carta, long before our revolution and our founding, we cannot allow that to be challenged or overturned. this experiment with trumpism is not going well in the view of most people, and you know, in science and medicine, some experiments are terminated early for ethical reasons, but to the answer the question, i think that there is more resilience in the american system than we often give it credit for. we have gone through worse times, and we have bounced back before. we have seen for example in the wake of watergate, the re-establishment of norms of ethics and behavior that restored our equilibrium as a country. and in the wake of donald trump wh whenever that comes, i think that we have an excellent chance to see the re-establishment of what the real spirit of america ought to be. i know that there's polarization and disagreement in the country, but i also think that there is a growing number of among donald trump's base of support who are really quite r worworried and beginning to worry and thinking that checks and balances are what we need right now. so thes

i did talk about such principles as magna carta and so on. these are important for putting limits on the power of the state. explicit, open and clear limits. power is not unlimited in this tradition. in the process, laws spread throughout europe. competition spurred the spread. very important in european history was the city of -- and the laws spread throughout europe. cities would send people to copy down the laws as a template for them. it became a sort of supreme court of adjudication throughout europe. when there was some dispute, people would send the case there. so this spread the common legal culture throughout europe. through competitive processes. you could copy whatever laws you wanted. these were especially good ones. i am skipping ahead again. my great hero, norbert elliott, such an interesting person. i wish i had met him. even from his photo, he looks like someone you would've been able to learn from. in his books he studies how it is that people came to achieve greater self-mastery and self- control. it had to do with the growi

probably in that context, the most significant event since the signing of the magna carta in 1215. our goal is to make sure the constituents of the united states remain aware of that and keep that close to their heart. i am a member of the connecticut society of cincinnati has comprised of the 13 original colonies and a french institute in society and the members are continental officers of this space. alexander hamilton was a member of the society of cincinnati, in fact a very important member who is very dear to all of us. he was the second president general of the society of cincinnati and took office after the passing of president george washington. he was president of the society until his death until 1799. alexander took over at 1800. at this juncture, i would like to call on renee romano to talk about the historians on hamilton book. with no for ado, i will welcome you. ms. romano: good evening, everyone. thank you for coming out here tonight. all of us have done a number different panels related to this book and i can safely say this is the most beautiful, impressive venue

you find evidence of it in the magna carta. the writ of habeas corpus has it entrenched in the british constitutional basin the 16th century. the 16 center thrown into the kings dungeon without charge or trial care protection from the secret police. protection from torture. protection from the ability of the king to use the army as a pseudo-police force. de cache, lettres a lettercould write that someone be spirit it away and locked in a tower. those for montesquieu were core offenses against what it is to be a free person. and he thought, the aspirations of that kind of cruel, punishing domineering was the most dangerous, the most toxic of moral and political personalities. those with power love to use their power in that way. and we who live under power, we seek the protection of law, which means two things. if is we seek to know that we follow the law, we will not be arrested and punished. this is habeas corpus. this is no extra judicial executions. this is no secret police. if i live under the law, according to the law, i m

received the sentence that condemned him to die in prison, he explained from the dock that, "the magna carta, the petition of rights, the bill of rights are documents which are held in veneration by democrats throughout the world." i guess i cannot claim them, he said that is part of my inheritance, that is part of the human inheritance. that applies in this country to me and to you. that is part of what gave him the moral authority. the apartheid regime could never claim. he was more familiar with their best values than they were in. -- were. he had read their documents were carefully than they had. he went on to say political division based on color is entirely artificial. and when it disappears, so will the domination of one color group by another. that is nelson mandela speaking in 1964 when i was three years old.

essentially, it goes back to magna carta.e calling somebody a perpetrator and somebody also victim, based solely on he said, she said is wrong. it is un-american. they should also call and the judge and any other witnesses who were at the party, who weren't at the party, sure. as far as the fbi investigation is concerned, don't count on that. there is not going to be very much the fbi can do. first of all, it is not an alleged federal crime. second, the fbi doesn't make credibility judgments. all it does is investigate and try to get all the witnesses on board. so i don't think -- >> sandra: what could they do? >> they could make sure that they speak to the judge, if he refuses to speak to them. he is the other person who is allegedly in the room, jumped on her. they can subpoena him. he can be forced to testify. >> bill: the other guy had knocked him off. >> that's right. but he's there. >> knocked him off. >> bill: ending the context, allegedly. >> look, it could have happened, it could have happened involving a different p

it is in many ways the mag magna carta of country music. how did that happen? what is the mystery that causes a waltz that just kicked around for a long time to have a few words placed on it by two songwriters driving from memphis to nashville to suddenly five million copies? none of us really knows. it is just a magnificent form of art. all over my state of tennessee there are thousands and thousands and thousands of teachers, taxi drivers, waitresses, people thinking of songs, getting together, writing songs, writing -- hoping to have the next number one hit. i saw bob depiro at the bluebird cafe a week ago saturday. senator hatch, he was a guitar teacher out of nashville in the early 1980's. and he would take a bus about 3:00 from downtown nashville out to riverdale mall and he'd teach guitar lessons to all of these kids until after school until 9:00 and during the day he'd write songs. he didn't do any good at all until one day he wrote a song called "my baby is american-made, born and bred in the u.s.a." everybody knows that song now. he is a great songwri
