this is where the midwest began. this is where our historical societies began and our universities began. we have obligations to the people to tell this story in our in publicp, presentations, like the one in of all places dearborn, michigan, where there is a wonderful presentation of the history of the klan in the henry ford, that great museum. a third grader, one of the four greatest kids in the world, did understand last summer when we looked at this exhibit and maybe couldn't put it into words but could probably get some sense of the importance of believing, of hoping that the moral arc of justice, that it bends toward justice. thank you very much. [applause] we do have some time for questions. i have been asked if you could come up to the microphone to ask your question also to make your comment. i am protected in all sorts of ways. i am happy to have negative comments, challenging comments, not hostile, but challenging. thank you. >> i will not be hostile. i am wondering if you could say something about world w

so many midwest activities are like let's drink beer in the cold. right? that's what tailgating is except it two in the morning or something because we get out super early to get the tailgatingspot . so you can stand outside in the cold drink miller high life which is the champagne of beers. and i love it, no disrespect . to the beer, but a lot of disrespect to the early morning though i didn't want to do it. i was like, i don't want to do that though that was the one thing e that was added but newhat mostly changed through writing the book is it wasn't busupposed to be sopersonal . and then it just got real messy and that the only way i know how to handle things, writing in my life is just be a hot mess so that was the biggest change. halfway through the writing process, i was like oh, i have to put my divorce in here because of personal is political and pretending otherwise is just privileged. those were the biggest things, thanks. >> did you limit your research maybe the midwest and did you into the south to see if the south is like the midwest because

we have a front that comes through the upper midwest. we're much colder behind that.hat cold air drags in right behind it. showers and storms down to the south and we're still warm in the northeast. we do have a heat advisory, 8 million affected in parking lots -- in parts of georgia, also alabama. heat indices over 100 degrees. late summer heat, a ridge of high pressure, a heat pump pulling in that southerly flow that's bringing in those temperatures. birmingham 98, feeling more like 101. charleston 89. panama city 91 feeling like 101. that expands to the east on tuesday, so columbia 96, tallahassee 95. by wednesday, though, and also into the late part of the week, the northeast and also the upper midwest gets in on this heat action, cincinnati 91 on thursday, 90 on friday, pittsburgh we're looking at the upper 80s. a severe storm threat today, want to keep this in mind, the potential for some flooding rains. also damaging winds of 60 miles per hour or greater. could even see some hail and also watching the chance for a few tornados. where you see the yellow, the rep

march, this is the first time the democratic national party has held the national convention in the midwest. outside of chicago since 1916. this choice emphasizes the importance of the heartland and the strength of a diverse community working together. at some of the preparations for the convention. on the shores of lake michigan. as i like to describe it, on america's fresh coast. it will really be the center of political intention in july 2020 as the democrats pick their next candidate. >> we are in the brand-new arena. an basketball stadium. the summer of 2020, that will be used for the main site for the democratic national convention. to seven weekix process. >> the promising challenges for think,ntion like this, i it's a lot of moving pieces. you have a lot of moving parts and everybody needs to be on the same page and working together to ensure that nothing goes wrong. biggestplaying on the stage. this is for super bowls in four days. >> there are people who are scared about the size of milwaukee. we have not had a convention of this size ever in milwaukee. smart because a lot like it

what do you make of the decision of your ancestors to settle where they did in the midwest. in the southern regions of the state not keep going further north what to make of the decision to go to these regions which were not safe by any means at the time at least i think there is the incredibly something incredibly significant about those setups twice ass i would love to hear more your thoughts about why you're ancestor who left from kentucky chose this part of illinois and not elsewhere. we may never know. >> it was fertile land. they came to become farmers who were successful. this is why this history. one of the reasons it has been so subs pressedis is because these were successful farmers who have valuable land and it was directly in conflict with the idea that the black man the man from africa would not be able to be successful in the states if given b full citizenship rights. in our ancestors they helped to destroy that myth. they were not only is successful but people of faith and they had communities where they respected the rights of each other.ti >> how would you a

economy and in certain parts of this country in particular in the midwest in the south manufacturing has placed an outsized role so again it's true measure it's true symbolic importance of the u.s. economy is much bigger than the actual amount of dollars that are involved so in manufacturing is focused you say in the south so these are primarily in the midwest so is it the is it primarily red states or or traditionally red leaning states that have the most manufacturing jobs well it no it is it's a lot of rural jobs we should say that and it's also frankly a lot of jobs in the traditional midwest but we also need to understand manufacturing. looks a lot different than it used to be when i was the deputy secretary of labor i used to visit all kinds of factories i would visit auto plants as well the u.s. manufacturing balance is producing far more goods than it did let's say 10 or 20 years ago but it's also doing with doing all of that with far fewer people and in part that's because of automation and so manufacturing as a portion of the u.s. economy has steadily shrunk but obviously t

love tos genie knows, i talk about the midwest.ally perceived that vice president biden has something of an advantage with workers. elizabethny way that warren can appeal to these people? in her opening remarks, she started with oklahoma and then went to texas with her brother serving in the military, she going to school. can she appeal to michigan, pennsylvania? she is appealing as a person, and i thought did a good job making the case as to who she is, her roots in the midwest, moving to texas, but unless she moderates these policy positions -- medicare for all, as jason mentioned -- joe biden was saying, how are you going to pay for that? she did not answer that they would that is not the only position. workers and farmers in the midwest will have a difficult time. she and bernie sanders will say, in the end you'll pay higher taxes and premiums. that is a hard sell politically. everything has to be relisted. these things will not pass congress, whether she wants to or not. david: we talk about health care a lot, but also economy

>> it's like a lot of states in the upper midwest. that's no surprise in terms of politics, you know, republicans have done well since 2010 and finally broke the dam in 2016, but the state remains pretty stableta from 2016 to 2020. there's not a lot of growth. there is obviously a large african-american population here in milwaukee, smaller in madison and there is a heavy latino vote but the state remains the same. >> host: if you want to talk fwisconsin politics, bill is our guest joining on the c-span bus. if you want to check out the no walkie sentinel on the tale of two governors what have we learned in the first few months in office? >> guest: things have returned to normalcy. scott walker was a very polarizing figure. he was loved as well as. tony remains a popular governor and legislature also is more popular now so if things had gone back to normal, they see the governor but not with a the passion that you had in the years. everybody had an opinion about scott walker but not everybody has an opinionon about tony to t >> host:

if you're outdoors in the midwest, keep that in mind.atch the skies and go inside when the storms pass through. this is a very slow-moving cold front. tonight at 8:00 p.m., and watch what happens as we go into saturday. it doesn't barely clear chicago by sunday night. we're going to see the threat of showers and thunderstorms, some severe thunderstorms, left in the chicago area, through tomorrow, as well. all weekend long, we have that risk of severe storms. and also, the risk of some flooding. how much rain could we see? up to about three or four inches of rain possible. again, with the rainfall rates of two inches per hour, a lot could fall in a short period of time. that's why we could see the flooding. already, so many people are already experiencing the top ten wettest seasons of the year -- top ten wettest year on record. so, they don't need anymore rain. but it looks like we'll see an additional three to five >>> we've got clear skies to start this morning. over san francisco. temperatures are expected to be warmer than friday, as

what about the drop of 2012 in the midwest, how did that impact your operations? just get them to start talking, engage with the arkham what do they care about and then you start from there and then you connect the dots to climate. >> that's a good way of approaching it. we have three state climatologist who know something about agriculture. rose -- can any of you talked about the effects of climate change on insects, both for agriculture and the public health? certainly ticks, mosquitoes are huge -- mosquitoes, with shark week. we should have mosquito week. that's the animal the kills most of us, right? what about insects and climate? that's a big subject but are there are a few things you can share with us? >> we are seeing more invasive species move for the north because of the warming nature of mid and high latitudes. we see the japanese beetles, we see the stink bugs. our projections are showing that yes, , more invasive species are moving into agricultural part of the united states and across the united states. >> kathie. >> and i think from the public healt

we have seen in the trends more humidity across the midwest. with this humidity in the atmosphere, we are getting overnight convection. that is how we get a lot of our rainfall during the summer months. it is tied in with the way the crop transpires and the effects on the atmosphere. so yes, there is a partnership between agriculture and the way precipitation is falling across the state. those are more microscale impacts, but yes, again, i spoke about cover crops -- putting in watersheds and wetland projects across the state which are able to take runoff and make water available to farmers in drier parts of the season. so, i mean, sure, there is probably something in agriculture, methane from livestock. we are also sequestering that at larger dairy farms across the state. they are using that methane to power those operations. we are using agriculture as a solution, smaller solutions, but the smaller solutions do add up, so i think we can be an agricultural leader in terms of climate change. >> agriculture pushes technology quite a bit. >> sure.

david:'s got perhaps informed by the polls, particularly in the midwest. now we go to frankfurt. we have been talking through the day about the ecb decision. just as we were coming to air there was a report that there was dissension at the ecb about quantitative easing. out reporter here in frankfurt putting out that story, which i have to admit gives me goosebumps. it is truly amazing to think about the amount of dissent mario draghi overrode in order to restart his bond purchasing programs, cut ratesprograms, cu5 basis points, lower the rates on tltro's, go into tiering. it was a momentous decision at said support was so unanimous, support was so overwhelming that he did not have to take about. now it turns out france was against him, the dutch were against him, the germans were against it, the austrians and estonians were against it as well. if you put those together, that is over half of the euro zone if you look at it by gdp. it. you had others against it is unreal he would come through with this, although that is his prerogative as the president of the ecb. the markets did

hurricanes, wildfires, flooding in the midwest. we are in an era of crisis management.ost: we have a call from north carolina, ed, good morning. caller: good morning. host: you are on the air, go ahead. whyer: i would like to know the electrical power companies have not followed the tele-cone -- the telephone companies and put lines underground. i think south carolina just past something requiring that. guest: your point is well taken. utilities should be putting their wires underground. the problem is, it is hugely expensive. this goes to the question of whether we, as citizens, are going to use our tax money to improve the situation. there's a lot of money that needs to be used. president trump, when he ran for president, talked about he want to fix infrastructure. we had infrastructure week almost every week. putt of money needs to be at the improvement of infrastructure, one of the foremost things as putting utility wires underground. it is usually expensive. we find the money to rescue banks, trillions of dollars, but we aren't finding the money to help ourselves f

though it was in new york that he rose to fame, he is the product of a small town in the midwest.ing been born over a general store in michigan. he was the only child of george dewey county republican leader and publisher of the local newspaper. local residents today like to point to the school where young tom got his early education before going on for a degree at the university of michigan. which they church family attended regularly, tom was a member of the choir. the same neighborhood where tom grew up, his mother lives all mothers is proud of her son and his achievements. >> you certainly must be proud of tom. >> yes, i think we're all happy over his success. he always was a worker. when he worked, he worked hard. when he played, he played hard. i do know that he always had the best interest of our country at heart. governor of the most populous state in the union, he chat -- churches -- cherishes the moments when he can relax on his farm in new york. outdoors from his boyhood, tom dewey likes to take whatever time he can from his public life to spend with his two boys. while

but it was, in its heyday, in was the mostt modern, fabulous building of the midwest. deco or maybet it's a form of art deco. it's something else. and they've kind of rehabbed it a little bit. journal hasing offices in there. and there's apartments on the -- upstairs, you know. the downtowns kind of died there those bigle bit and department stores went away. somehey've come back with wonderful options, housing options. so we're coming into old town here. old town was the original, kind of the original settlement of lansing. the mid-1800's or 1840. bershard was the first white settler actually here in mid-michigan here. put a dam up on the intersection of the grand river the indian trail, the native american trail. and then businesses, you know, a few wooden houses and businesses started to pop up. and then it became quite an industry. it had its own train station and office.post and businesses were thriving there. the state capitol came and things kind of changed a little bit. the 60's,robably in old town kind of foundered a little bit. then come the 1980's, 90's, it s

i'm from the midwest we don't have hurricanes.e midwest and say this is what is happening out here. we have safety but most in the top of our minds, we have contingency plans, we are the second story of a hotel room right now, we make sure we have provisions, food, water, we are as safe as we can be for the circumstances. good to talk to you, thank you very much. let's get some of the day's other news. the taliban has confirmed to the bbc that about 5,000 us troops would be withdrawn from afghanistan under a proposed peace deal. the us envoy, zalmay khalilzad, says they will leave in the coming months, subject to president trump's approval. russian protesters who risk losing their children because they've taken them to demonstrations have won a reprieve in court. prosecutors had threatened to take the children into care. the anti—doping agency in the us has withdrawn its case against the sprinter christian coleman, the fastest man in the world this year. he'd been charged with missing three drugs tests and was facing an automatic

. >> this will be one of the first national conventions in the midwest in the last 100 years.olitics and geography make a difference. while the choice of a convention city does not guarantee anything, it sends a message around where democrats are investing. we know that in order to win in 2020, we need to be investing in america's heartland. we need to be here in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania, ohio, the choice of milwaukee helps send that message. >> this is one of the places where the labor movement is under threat from republican reforms. in milwaukee, people shed blood and died fighting for the eight hour workday. it's a place where in recent times it has been turned into a right to work state. communityy of engagement and sharing is something i think is important to brag about. we are a very diverse community. one of our challenges is to make sure that that is not something that rolls off of our tongue but that we actually have minority participation in the economic benefit of this convention. >> one of the things we are isud about with the forum that almost all the wo

farmers in the midwest take how much pain and suffering can iowa poor farmers take the fact of the matter is last year pork exports to china were up all across the globe except in the united states where they're down 2 percent in brazil just last year they're up almost a 3rd and so once again we're just seeing pain upon pain and now that we have 100000000 fewer. or poorer in china fewer swine you know what they just do not need as much soybean imported right and so the fact that they're saying well maybe we'll imports and soybean no they're not we'll never get those markets back it's very unfortunate and back on pork if you're a carnivore you probably love toward china certainly does we know that enough so that there are official government stockpiles of the meat we know about the inflation impacts which may have convinced local governments covering a population of 130000000 people to start thawing out some of their reserves of frozen pork and now my question is are we on the verge of seeing this factor of pork prices start to have some interactive feedback if that's with other act aspect

busier than ever has been at this time of year, you write, thousands of workers are in the midwest helping with recovery efforts related to the record rainfall and flooding this spring, but some people are not assigned to the smaller events the agency has thought to escape. you write, that the agency approved governor mike dewine's aidest for aid and disaster is requested by governors, approved by the president, who issues a disaster recommendation. you write that the republican requested $9.2 million in fema grants, weeks before he signed budget cuts for state taxes by 4%, and touting a $2.7 billion in reserves. this is not the only example you cited in your article. guest: right. do notse examples, i mean to pick on ohio, but it is a very illustrative example, you can find almost every state where that happens. the economy has been stronger, budgets are being cut, they are building reserves, so if ever there was time for fema or congress to say we will cut back fema aid, this would be a good time because states have those huge reserves, and they can observe $9 million in disaster arounda

. >> i think this will be one of conventionstional in the midwest and i think that's very important. i think politics and geography make a difference. and certainly while the choice of the convention city does not guarantee anything, i think this -- it sends a message around where democrats are investing. we understand that in order to win in 2020, we need to be investing in america. we need to be here in wisconsin, and michigan, pennsylvania, ohio, and the choice of milwaukee i think really helps send that message. >> this is one of the places where the labor movement, so much under threat from republicans, was born, right our bay vlwaukee in iew community. people shed blood and died fighting for the eight hour workday. it's a place where in just recent times, it has just been turned into a right to work state. our history of community engagement and sharing at is something i think is important to brag about. we're a very diverse community. and one of our challenges is to make sure that that's not something that just rolls off of of our tongues, but that we actually have minority pa

it sounded like the president said i want them to buy farm products i want them to go through the midwest buying products from american farmers that's the desired outcome here. there are a lot of political reasons why the united states might not want chinese buyers touring through the midwest in almost a campaign-style event announcing ag purchases so you get the sense that mnuchin was saying there's some confusion here as to what exactly is happening and we asked them to back off that and they did an interesting moment there, melissa. >> why wouldn't they, eamon? i mean, from what i understand because on "power lunch" we spoke to the national director of the montana farm bureau about specifically the chinese canceling the visit. it sounded like the chinese reached out directly which can sort of an unusual protocol and usually go through somebody in the government to arrange such a tour of farmland and the chinese reached out first thing this the morning to cancel but no details were actually -- there was no itinerary. there was no set schedule. it was very sketchy to begin with. >> right

there is a political and economic cost because some farmers in the midwest don't want to have all of this uncertainty about whether there will be tariffs on soybeans or other agricultural products. this what does he have at point, what can he .2 and how does that message resonate with voters? guest: it depends on who he is trying to appeal to. getting out rank and file republican voters, he points to things they were doing the first two years, and that is the tax you had a pullback of health care provisions pushed by president obama and then you saw with mitch mcconnell, pushing through supreme court justice confirmations across the federal bench. since the divided government started after nancy pelosi took over the house and speaker, you are seeing more limited accomplishments on the trump campaign part and the white house. it is much more about executive orders and he has not been able to get a comprehensive immigration legislation through that would fund his border wall. he has used executive power to try and get federal projects and money to show his base that he is taking some k

bad's just a really practice that's hurting farmers in the upper midwest quite a bit. thoseould say focus on kitchen table issues that people talk about. they're worried about health for their mortgage or rent. can they take a family vacation in wisconsin? you get that snowmobile or that camper? that's what most people are carrying about. we talk about those issues, we'll be talking to voters and we will win the white house in 2020. >> congressman, as i understand it, you're a former labor union member? am, yes.l >> i wonder what your thoughts are about the g.m. strike over two weeks by the u.a.w. members there, impacting part of well, and at least one factor there as well as factories in michigan. on that strike and what it means for the strength theabor unions headed into 2020 election? >> yes. labor support moppin among the is another one where i think the political class and working spot are in a different spot. the support for unions is at its highest ever. among millennials, it's very of the top spots in the last 50 years, because people think you should have a w
