and here you can see mckinney and williams who actually were in partnership together and had their own business. mckinney and williams were actually businessmen and they were cotton traders and they really wanted to establish themselves as the primary route for cotton growers in texas to transport their cotton out of the republic of texas. they pretty much wanted to have -- be the primary transporters of that. so they're businessmen, merchants, primarily. the next letter we're going to look at is a letter written from andrew jackson to sam houston. andrew jackson at this point is in retirement at the hermitage in tennessee and sam houston is president of texas. it's written in january of 1844. sam houston knew andrew jackson from his time back east. he had served under andrew jackson in the military. he was involved in politics in tennessee and so he and andrew jackson knew each other from before houston's time in texas. circumstances pushed houston to texas. he became involved in the efforts here to gain independence and the push for annexation and joining the united states. that issu

oversight and disbursement of funding, funding appropriated for programs and services around the mckinney vental act such as homelessness, job creation, transitional housing. i don't see none of that really affecting my community. i don't see any of it really helping us, you know. i see there is a few non-profit organizations who are building transitional housing, there's a couple of shelter programs. there's families and children sleeping on the streets. i've come to know a lot of these people, i've interviewed them. i've started a non-profit organization to address some of the needs and concerns that are affecting the low-income and homeless population. what i would like to see is how the funding that the federal government -- the funding that the federal government is appropriate tog the state and local government, how is it being disbursed among the people in my population n the community i live in, 46% of the homeless population are african american males. they're sleeping on the streets, they're in doorways, the shelters are full, there's no shelters. my vision is to see, you know,

. >> so, you mentioned interest in how mckinney vento federal funds are allocate and had the committee also -- the community block program as well as and reviews those and forwards them on to the mayor's office of community development to decide. in your experience, have you seen that -- the grants change from year to year in a significant way and why and why not? >> yes, i've seen it change where there's been less disbursement to the non-profits, there's been certain none profits who have been denied. they have to go out and raise funding, you know, privately to get money because they've been turned down. they're socially and economically disadvantaged organizations and i would like the see more work witching the non-profit environment as opposed to working with the small business community, there's some private and non-profit organizations, they collect this money under the mckinney veto act and provide transitional housing but they're only obligated to provide it for 12 years and then they can go private and turn it into a condominium so they're telling their presidents to get on th

mckinney said that that -- something intriguing. we were talking about the need for leadership and also strong partnerships and my colleague at the end i think would agree about how can we put the public backing to help and empower people. one is i think there is something to be sad. we need some strong leadership to bring all of the partners together and i think you captured him of that. i feel a little uncomfortable gleaming pakistanis were not vaccinating their kids when we can't seem to do a very good job of that in parts of the united states and i hate to call people on the west coast terrorists because they are not vaccinating their children from measles. i want to put some context to bear. there is a lesson learned about communicating. mckinney brought that up about communicating upwards because we seem to have a problem with communication. what if some of your experiences? i do believe you have to have a strong leadership nationally to encourage that. and also kind of authorizing and make that an acceptable approach. >> we h

lance mckinney, some baltimore officials are blaming the riot on kids. bull. are locals from the affected neighborhoods. bob, florida, great reporting on the clinton foundation. i heard it gives just 15% to projects can you confirm. charity navigator does not analyze the clinton foundation however, navigator has it on its watch list because so much of the foundation money is used for nonphilanthropic things. mike i'm blown away by legends and lies. i had no idea and felt very badly for carson. thank you for the shows. you're welcome, mike. next sunday, david crockett on the rundown. and he doesn't want to be called davey. you don't do that. charles, florida, bill killing patton has been number one on the times list for 30 weeks. number one nine weeks, but i'm glad you liked it. the letter of the day, my 9-year-old son asked me if the world is going to be better in the future. i said i couldn't answer that right now. what would you have said. i'm very optimistic about america, tammy, i know i don't sound it sometimes. with qualifiers. i would have told your son

mckinney from chicago talked about coordinating activity at the local and state level and unfortunately i don't think that that is a model that hasn't been used very effectively and other communities. at the end of the day, unless you've got everybody at the table, a small group of people at the table and then you exercise and rehearse those plans, you will end up in the same situation as you did post sandy. we have experience with those lessons. with katrina, there were lessons, but most of those were lost and not applied with sandy. so the rudimentary notion of that after each disaster you have a debrief, what has transpired, what was effective not effective, and you maintain observations from that. but we are not doing that in an efficient way so that is an observation that you made that is most important. >> i took your point about the decision-making process to be directed, not so much at the way we operate in a crisis, but before the crisis, the government possibility to look ahead, prioritize it one threat over another, one value over another, you said education versus preparing

. >> i want to go back to brett mckinney. she was acting like a jerk. apologize to the woman. what is the limit to the jerky behavior? where does it end you will be monitored at home? you said something nasty to your neighbor and i understand you should be suspended for a week. >> but the trouble is she used her position in television. >> i am not excusing the behavior but she needs to go back and apologize to the woman but as far as the suspension is that what is under the morality clause? if you are a nasty jerk you are suspended? >> her biggest punishment is the public public public criticism of her. >> jenna lee is standing by. >> none of us ever act like a jerk. we have big news at the top of the hour. the ohio man accused of supporting terrorist will be in court. ahead more on his plot to execute soldiers and what it means in the fight against homegrown terrorism. but if you are nervous about the dentist wait until you hear about this. an office working accused of proposing as a dentist performing root canals. that is next on "happening now." >> g

mckinney did a great job. i'm a big fan of the work that she did. i'm as surprised as everyone on that show came on you know, you have to wake up and i eventually got up and got a chance to play back and see it for myself. but with all respect to the president, and this is a criticism that i am getting tired of hearing, i believe that it is our duty and job and responsibility to hold all the leaders accountable. just because you are my friend such as barack obama has been even before he was in the united states senate, whether you are my friend or an african-american or whether i will vote for you once or twice, it matters not when it comes to doing my job of trying to hold you together and accountable for the things he said that you are going to do. great presidents are not born. they are made. they have to be pushed into their greatness. there is no fdr or mlk if the president isn't pushing him. and so i get a little squeamish about that because i am a big boy enough to handle that. but i don't see my other friends in the media who are labeled oba
