-- randy hultgren and james mcgovern for their bipartisan work on this legislation. the war crimes rewards expansion act would clarify the war crimes rewards program. this program is an important tool for bringing to justice the perpetrators of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide. under current law, the united states uses the program to pay rewards for the arrest or conviction of foreign nationals who commit some of the most heinous acts. in the past, bounties have helped find fugitives from the former yugoslavia to rwanda. the statute providing authorization for this program specifies that rewards can be paid to individuals who furnish information leading to the arrest or convictions for war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide as those terms are defined under the statutes of international tribunals. h.r. 3851 clarifies the secretary of state can also choose to pay rewards for arrest and convictions that take place under the laws of the united states as well as other individual countries. under certain circumstances, prosecutions will have the g

i happen to know one of them extremely well, george mcgovern but you also mentioned the republican howard baker who showed remarkable courage and leadership. that made a difference. to what extent can you explain why there seem to be so much courage when it required it in so little now? >> well, it was tom brokaw's greatest generation. some of those people that had fought in world war ii and gone into normandy and iwo jima. they were wounded in war like senator dole. they didn't think casting a hard vote was the toughest thing they had ever done. beyond that, that was the ethos then and look none of them were perfect. i'm not saying they were. my favorite person in the world senator tom eagleton who was great on many issues. he came into the senate in 1968, an avid gun control advocate but he almost lost the election and he decided he wasn't going to be for gun control anymore. so none of them were perfect but the ethos was in howard baker epitomized this plan as they say in the book when jimmy carter said i want to do a new panama canal treaty something five presidents had looked at howa

george mcgovern. but you also mentioned a republican, howard baker. the short remarkable courage and leadership. that made a difference. to what extent, can you explain why they seem to be so much courage than when it required it and so little now? >> well, it was tom brokaw' greatest generation. some of those people that had fought in world war ii gone into normandy or iwo jima or wanted in war like senator dole. they did not think casting a hard boat was the toughest thing that ever done. but beyond that, it was simply, that was it then. and look, none of them were perfect. i am not saying they were. my favorite person in the world, senate tom eagleton who was great emanations came to the senate in 1960 as an avid gun control advocate. but he almost lost his election. he said he wasn't going to be for gun control anymore. so none of them were perfect. but howard baker epitomize this. when as a say in the book, when jimmy carter said we think we need to do, i want to do a new panama canal treaty, something five presidents had looked at and passed. ho

oflved democratic initiatives all across the country, lots of campaigns, worked hard for george mcgovern, for william fulbright, he always knew this would be the path he was going to take and he gained a lot of experience before running for office himself. before the clintons were married and bill was living east of town , he decided he would run for congress and he talked it over with the dean of the law school, who gave him his blessing and promised his support. he had decided to run against john paul hammerschmidt. people toeveral other run against the very popular republican and nobody else wanted to do it. they wanted to run for other things. he finally decided that it should be him. everyone thought he was fighting a losing battle and probably he was and he knew it. he openly says he did not think it could hurt his future chances at other offices. he was absolutely correct. in 1974 hempaign lost, but only by about 6000 votes, which was pretty remarkable for a newcomer against a very broad republican district. he often says that losing that congressional election enabled him to go t

he was ahead of mcgovern in the polls by 34 points. there was no way he was going to lose. he could have fired everybody in his cabinet and still won, and he should have. [laughter] evan: that was one turning point that he blew partly out of his own shyness. leon: because he could not face it? evan: he couldn't face it and did not want to face it. nixon was a devious guy, he also thought he could get away with it. he believed in executive privilege and he thought, and people scoff at this, but he is hardly the first president to use dirty tricks. what really happened, nixon's timing was bad. that's what it was. [laughter] dick: i mean, like, the 20th century. [laughter] evan: that's what i mean by that. why did he have these incompetent people doing this? why were those guys doing it? the reason they were doing it is because the fbi had taken themselves out of the business of doing this. j edgar hoover, that the ahead been illegally wiretapping and stealing and spying for earlier presidents, including frank and roosevelt, harry truman, lbj. j edgar hoover by 1970 was a savv

i voted for a third party candidate at that time because mcgovern was a fool in foreign policy and nixonas very sinister. i don't think the democrats at that point in time had proven that watergate amounted to anything. but by march when the president's attorney john dean came forward with his cancer on the presidency speech, then it became apparent that there was something very wrong. one of the things that was very wrong was a thing called the houston plan. now, nixon had already hired the plumbers to break into the d.n.c. to get information so they could run a dirty tricks campaign against president nixon 's enemy list but the houston plan fight one step further. nixon signed off on a plan that would allow the c.i.a. which is not allowed to spy within the confines of the united states to spy on american citizens. this would have given nixon even more leverage to make people like edmond musky leave the presidential election in 1972, which he did. host: well, ron, let me ask you this, given the history of the fisa law grew out after the aftermath of watergate and the committee and the h

the biggest landslide for reelection beating george mcgovern. , it has beenual scandal after scandal, they never seem to stop. why? part of it is, there was no public record, there was no military record. by the nature of the work that he does in real estate in new hidingou are constantly money, off and money, getting loans. so you try to obfuscate a lot of his past. we have not seen his taxes which were supposed to be released. he promised it and will not do it. it is kind of ugly when you watch how billionaires manipulate money, move the , and don't offer transparency. there is a kind of taint surrounding donald trump. two thirds of the country don't trust him, do not think he is reliable, do not see him as a businessman, but a charlatan. then you have a third of the country that says this is the best president of my lifetime, he talks straight, directly to me. he goes over the lame mainstream media, punditry, is connecting with my feelings and thoughts. thoseoblem trump has, diehards are a third of the country, and two thirds are not buying the act. host: columbia, maryland. republ

the biggest landslide for reelection beating george mcgovern. , it has beenual scandal after scandal,hey never seem to stop. why? part of it is, there was no public record, there was no military record. by the nature of the work that he does in real estate in new hidingou are constantly money, off and money, getting loans. so you try to obfuscate a lot of his past. we have not seen his taxes which were supposed to be released. he promised it and will not do it. it is kind of ugly when you watch how billionaires manipulate money, move the , and don't offer transparency. there is a kind of taint surrounding donald trump. two thirds of the country don't trust him, do not think he is reliable, do not see him as a businessman, but a charlatan. then you have a third of the country that says this is the best president of my lifetime, he talks straight, directly to me. he goes over the lame mainstream media, punditry, is connecting with my feelings and thoughts. thoseoblem trump has, diehards are a third of the country, and two thirds are not buying the act. host: columbia, maryland. republic
