several dead bodies are being carried from the field, while an officer, evidently mcclellan, tends to a wounded -- a distorted figure, his back to the viewer, signaled his distress, by holding a hand to his eyes, -- is the president demands, now marshall, sing us the butler, or something else that is funny. -- songbook routinely deploys this malignant reading of lincoln, in there versus, you may call your black battalion, to aid your stinking course, and substitute your vulgar jokes, of levity and lois, go by the memory of our fathers, by those green unnumbered graves, we will perish on 10,000 fields, where we become your slaves. than the sun, max my darling, the first verse is a tribute to mcclellan's -- and the second verse, runs -- to make his jolly joke, or bloodied fields of stricken battle, while -- life said smoke from men, -- like butchered cattle. the guns grow cold, the -- may crack his stories, your name is of the grand -- and linked with all our brightest glory. it is impossible to determine concisely how lincoln's reputation as a joker -- shaped the political balance in 1

wrote mcclellan. tactics such as these resulted in a two-year stalemate with high casualties on both sides. lincoln feared the northerners, tired of war, and sickened by the long list of casualties in northern newspapers, would call for a piece that allow for southern independence. lakin raise the stakes of the war on general are first-come 1863 by issuing his emancipation proclamation. according to his document, the rebellious southern states would not return to the union with slavery in place. by this time, general mcclellan had been sacked by lincoln and other generals had been called -- calling for a more aggressive war, generals grant and sherman were raiding plantations later and confiscating and killing livestock, and confiscating -- after vicksburg fell in early july, sherman boasted that the land is devastated for 30 miles around. his work masterpieces were his capture of atlanta and subsequent march to the sea. he burned much of atlanta and commenced his march. atlanta is in ruins with black

mcclellanism is rooted out. they were wrong about that. it wasn't really rooted out until they removed governor warren the army has the confidence of the commanding general and he takes the field unhampered with interference from any quarter. we anticipate the victory, which shall give the rebellion the finishing blow. the "new york times," like the "tribune," a republican's paper, develop a common theme. the southern rebels as well as some folks in the north are fond of shaking their heads in view of lieutenant governor's campaign in virginia, they say that grant has heretofore been successful defeating the rebel generals, he has never yet encountered lee. that is true enough. do these people think that, grant has ever fought lee, it is also equally true that lee has never met grant. the "new york herald," judged the "new york herald," judged writing shortly after the surrender, a union soldier spoke eloquently about lee's stature among his enemies. the background is he is home after the surrender, and his letter seems not as letter seems

because there was a good reason to believe lincoln would not be re-elected and might be defeated by mcclellan and the democrats. war weariness was horrific, as many of you know, by august of that summer. there was no certainty of lincoln's re-election. in fact, there was a great deal of uncertainty about it. this scheme was lincoln's way apparently of saying to douglass, "all right. emancipation has become the great aim of this war. let's get as much of it done before i lose this election, if i lose this election." they exchanged ideas on other things. we could go into that later. now, it's worth pointing right here that one of the things that makes this relationship so interesting is because both of these men had this extraordinary, much written about capacity for intellectual and ideological growth -- both. and where they started in 1861 and where they come to by '63 and especially '64-'65 is the extraordinary part, of course, of the story. in the first year of the war, even year and a half of the war, '61 into '62, at least through august of '62, douglass was one of the fiercest critics ab

a memo sent to attorney general william barr and acting homeland security secretary kevin mcclellan outlines a number of measures it includes judging asylum applicants within a 6 month period and requiring fees for asylum and work permit applications. critics say the us has to follow its asylum laws for all migrants who are fleeing for safety reasons in a tweet president trump called us immigration laws quote week ineffective and dangerous and he called mexico quote one of the most dangerous countries in the world. >>illegal immigrants. placing a massive strain when communities and schools and hospitals and public resources. >>the memo from president trump says that bar and cleveland have 90 days to take action. >>morning news. we'rgoing to hear from of a area father who is now taking public transportation because his car was vandalized, tell you what to was scrawled all over it and the food bank get ready to expand now one in the bay area because so many people you to eat and they can't afford it to sign of the time and then after the break, the change is happening in muni just days after m

trying to sell elevate one institution, it just happens to be some of the greatest journalists, max mcclellan how about -- [inaudible] he's been out there. he runs cnn. he just got a first amendment award for a real -- he's out there saying we believe in telling the truth. isn't cnn the example of the opposite? i mean, can you tell the difference between the journalists and the opinion givers over at cnn? honestly, i cannot. >> well, that's a very interesting question because i was wondering myself in the morning is don lemon an opinion person? like, i know sean hannity is, right? the he makes no secret of it. so does tucker carlson, so does laura ing frame, but what about don lemon? rachel maddow, i know where she sits, right? what about people like don lemon? tcan't tell. t but what i can tell is there's not a lot of -- there's a lot of opinion in his show. that's 100%. in fact, it's almost all opinion from beginning to end -- >> you have brian stelter on the weekend who appears to be the anti-fox guy. >> i use him as a road map for the political propaganda strategy of the progressive movem

he is in the field with the army, and we for example that lincoln was unhappy with the fact that mcclellan has sent infrequent reports and didn't keep him up to date with what is going on and jeffersondaily rep commanders, and so was lincoln satisfied with the number of messages that he got? >> interestingly, what seemed to be going on is that a lot of grant's messages, and some of them were coming to the president, too, and some were coming to hallic, and some were coming to the secretary of war stanton who then, you know, talked to the president, et cetera. but lincoln really, as i said, i think that i said earlier basically said, look, here's what i want to do, and lincoln says, here is what i want to do and we agree, so just do it. i don't have to know, and what the difference that is happening is that the grant is moving things forward. he is not pulling back, and most importantly, i think, he says to lincoln in one of the first meetings that, now, no matter what happens, in my attempt to win in virginia, i'll take the credit or i'll take the blame. you don't have to worry. and lincol

there is some room for doubt though in the relationship between nelly and george mcclellan. one of the things i look at very closely, is the question of whether she ever really loved him. but, there is also room for doubt in whether her opinions of lincoln were hers, or were more influenced by her husband. her unfavorable views of lincoln might well have been hers, because she was quite a spunky lady. but, mcclellan's own strong negative judgment of lincoln, stanton, and alec, were persistently reinforced and often amplified by nelly, in the couples correspondence. the mcclellan's could always change a good opinion they had of someone, but never a bad one. existing evidence shows that in words and deeds, nelly bolstered her husband's disdain towards lincoln and his cabinet. when mcclellan brought nelly and their daughter to the antietam battlefield, to marvel at the site of his greatest victory, it is hard to imagine that nelly would not have known that lincoln and hallock were frantically urging her husband southward, but mcclellan ignored them. and, nelly allowed him to do
