mrs. kennedy. but she relies on you so much, all the way to the end and i'm hesitant to ask you this -- it's a rich part of this narrative of your life. you were with her that day in dallas. could you give us a bit about what that was like? >> i will try to be as brief as i can because that's one memory that when it comes back always brings chills to my arms and shoulders and all over. but i remember it like yesterday. it was 53 years ago -- could it really be that much? it is. it was a case where i think i can only talk about how difficult it was to have an right there, but i'm glad i was because for mrs. kennedy's sake, i could embrace her when we got into the plane and we were ready to leave. i won't go into the details but it was one of the saddest experiences i have ever been through. when i look back on it now and try to recall it, it is almost too much to do. i'm almost speechless. where do we go from here? i don't know it is difficult. [applause] i will say i go into detail in the book. the

mrs. kennedy visited our house, that is a happier topic. mrs. kennedy and the children visited on the day before she left for her big trip to india because she needed a day to get away, and miss caroline want it to come and visit. this is part of the relationship i had that i enjoyed so much. the boy, stanley, it was like family. after we soon got into the white house in 1961, mrs. kennedy asked if i would have tom kitten flown to the house. the president, he was allergic to animal for which i was not aware of -- animal fur, which i was not aware at the time of either. caroline was the same age as chris and greg. they would come to visit, and she would come periodically, mostly on wednesdays when it was a day off. however, before mrs. kennedy went on her trip to india she wanted a day to herself so that caroline and she could come and visit with tom kitten and that would give for a day of relaxation. so, anyway that was one of the more happier moments and there were several others, but as i say there is so much to talk about that we cannot really

mrs. kennedy's sake i could embrace her. i will not go into the details of everything about it, but it was one of the saddest experiences that i have ever been through. when i look back on it now and try to recall it, it is almost too much to do. i am a little speechless. anyway, let's see. where do i go from here? i don't know. >> thank you. >> it is difficult. >> thank you. i am glad you were there. [applause] say i go say, i will into detail in the book about everything. [laughter] there is a memory that comes back to my mind most is being in the vip bus behind the president's motorcade is seen this policeman with his gun drawn, and that is benign is something serious had happened and i said to the secretary next to me, i said, something very terrible has happened. look at the policeman. we got to the heartland hospital for the luncheon -- parkland hospital for the luncheon scheduled and it was just chaos with everyone screaming about the president being shot. i speak about going to the hospital and go into all of that. i

mrs. kennedy. i want to thank you for letting us visit your official home. this is obviously the room from which much of your work on it is directed?" "yes. it's attic and sellar all in one. since our work has started, we receive hundreds of letters every day. this is where we evaluate all the finds and see if we want to keep them if they will fit into our budget." "mrs. kennedy, every first lady and every administration since president madison's time has made changes greater or smaller in the white house. before we look at the changes that you've made, what's your basic plan?" "well, i really don't have one because i think this house will always grow and should. it just seemed to me such a shame when we came here to find hardly anything of the past in the house, hardly anything since 1902. i know when we went to columbia, the presidential palace there has all the history of that country in it where simone bolliva was, every piece of furniture in it had some link with the past i thought the white h

mr. kennedy? mean, yeah, i think somebody who is paid $1 million for the medallion in new york probably feels a bit aggrieved. but i think if you look at it objectively, uber is a better model. they are reducing prices, serving neighborhoods that traditionally have not been served so well. and the riders seem to think it is a better experience. so the answer, i think, is not to go backwards to the traditional model, but to free u p the traditional taxicabs and brick-and-mortar businesses so that they can participate more in online experience. and you see taxicabs actually starting to put out their own apps now. so, reforming some of the traditional laws and regulations would be more appropriate response. >> thank you. ms. bruckner, if workers are found to be misclassified, what other penalties on the tax code would they then be penalized under other laws, like the fair labor standard act, as well? mr. bruckner: our research did not look at the legal implication. we thing that is a part of the deba

mr. kennedy? mr. nnedy: i mean, yeah, i think somebody who is paid $1 million for the medallion in new york probably feels a bit aggrieved. but i think if you look at it objectively, uber is a better model. they are reducing prices, serving neighborhoods that traditionally have not been served so well. and the riders seem to think it is a better experience. so the answer, i think, is not to go backwards to the traditional model, but to free up the traditional taxicabs and brick-and-mortar businesses so that they can participate more in online experience. and you see taxicabs actually starting to put out their own apps now. so, reforming some of the traditional laws and regulations would be more appropriate response. ms. velazquez: thank you. ms. bruckner, if workers are found to be misclassified, what other penalties on the tax code would they then be penalized under other laws, like the fair labor standard act, as well? mr. bruckner: our research did bruckner: our research did not look at the legal im

mr. kennedy. even if we were able to implement a temporary legislative and regulatory moratorium on the sharing economy as you suggested, you correctly point out there are a meyriad of relevant state and local laws that bear on this sector. how would you address inconsistencies between federal action versus state and local? >> yes. i say two things to that. the first is i think there's room for an increased dialogue between the federal government and the states about what the common rules should be. you know, we would like, i think, ideally for there to be consistency at the federal and state levels and so encouraging reform at the state level, manages reform at the federal level be important. and the second is that congress can, to some extent, preempt state laws using the commerce clause and there's room for debate about where that line is. but i think there is scope for preempting a lot of the state legislation now. >> okay. thank you very much mind ti. the ranking member recognized for five mi

mr. kennedy is in charge of the whole event. and he lets everyone do what they need to do and then eventually he just shuts it down. he closes the lid, as he says. and so the reporters start going and everyone is starting to leave. but mr. vega is at the very beginning of the pack. and as he's crouching down, picking up his materials, he looks and he hears eisenhower telling kennedy, i know somewhere where we can go and talk. and as he's looking, he sees the picture. he sees the image that he does. but he also realizes, that in order to make the picture that he's seeing, that would be in between the legs of a secret service agent that was standing right next to him. so the secret service agent was -- went by the nickname of moose. so he goes, moose, spread your legs. and moose says, no, i can't do that. salinger said the lid is closes. moose, just spread your legs. i have a picture here. do it. so moose just goes and spreads his legs. he takes the picture and the pulitzer prize image is captured. and as you could see it captures

mr. kennedy came back and said this was atrocious. at the time, according to mr. sullivan, the fbi had 5500 special agents. out of that number, 5500, and you only have five negro agents? of course we did not say in that memoranda that none of them conducted investigations. they were just drivers. this is 1961. any wonder the fbi was presumpti presumptionous. the bureau looked across the landscape and decided who should be neutralized, discredited or destroyed. >> the bureau was originally set up as a crime fighting agency but in 1939 in a directive by president roosevelt, it assumed a new task of seeing that the country's internal security was maintained in the face of a growing threat from fascism and communi communism. >> in 1939 the fbi had and established an index called the security index which was a list of individuals, both aliens and citizens -- i'm now quoting -- on whom there is information available to indicate that their presence at liberty in this country at time of war or national emergency would be dangerous to the united states government. the docu

mr. kennedy to lead the country. so he seeks counsel with former president eisenhower and they meet at camp david. the press is invited to make some photographs of these meetings and there are a lot of photographers there doing the coverage, pierre salinger, the press secretary for mr. kennedy, is in charge of the whole event and he lets everyone do what they need to do and then eventually he just shuts it down, he closes the lid, as he says. so the reporters start going, everyone starts leaving but the photographer is at the very, very beginning of the pack and as he's crouching down picking up his materials he looks and he hears eisenhower telling kennedy "i know somewhere where we can go and talk." and as he's looking, he sees the picture, he sees the image that he does but he also realizes that in order to make the picture that he sees, that would be in between the legs of a secret service agent that was standing right next to him. so the secret service agent goes by the name of moose so he goes "moose, spread yo

mr. to a memorandum, which then torney general kennedy wrote to mr. hoover. he wrote a memorandum asking mr. hoover, how many negro special agents he had. mr. hoover wrote back, we don't catalog people by race, creed, or color. reading from mr. sullivan's transcript, it was assumed by mr. hoover that this would take care of mr. kennedy. mr. kennedy came back with another letter, you are commended to have this attitude. i want to know how many negro special agents do you have? it so happened during the war, he had five negro chauffeurs. he made them special agents. it didn't matter if they finished college or high school or had a law degree. he wrote back and said, we have five. mr. kennedy came back and said, this is atrocious. at the time, according to mr. sullivan, the fbi had 5500 special agents. out of that number, 5500, you only have five negro agents? mr. sullivan again, we did not say in the memorandum that none of them conducted investigations. they were just drivers. this was 1961. is it any wonder that the fbi was later presumptuous enough to feel t

mr. kennedy. mr. kennedy came back with another very nice letter you are , commended to have this attitude. i still want to know how many negro special agents do you have? it so happened during the war, he had five negro chauffeurs. so he automatically made them special agents. it didn't matter if they finished college or high school or grammar school or had a law degree. he wrote back and said, we have five. then mr. kennedy came back and said, this is atrocious. at the time, according to mr. sullivan, the fbi had 5500 special agents. out of that number, 5500, you only have five negro agents? mr. sullivan again, we did not say in the memorandum that none of them conducted investigations. they were just drivers. " this was 1961. is it any wonder that the fbi was later presumptuous enough to feel that it could determine the next new national negro leader. part of the problem is that they attempted to translate the tactics used first against the communist party, against virtually every perceived enemy, a

mr. kennedy for his leadership in offering this legislation and thank you, mr. guinta, for this amendment. i urge our colleagues to support this bipartisan amendment that will allow us to understand the underlying increase in the use of opioid medication and prescription drugs that are leading people intotoubstance use disorder and ultimately sadly into the use of heroin and fentanyl that is killing so many people in our homes and communities. i yield back the balance of my time. the chair: the gentlewoman yields back the balance of her time. the question son the amendment offered by the gentlelady from new hampshire. those in favor say aye. those opposed, no. -- the question is on the amendment offered by the gentlelady from new hampshire. those in favor say aye. those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the ayes have it. the amendment is agreed to. it is now in order to consider amendment number 9 printed in part a of house report 114-551. for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? mr. schiff: mr. chairman, i have an amendment

mr. kennedy: thank you, mr. chairman. i want to thank mr. pallone for yielding, for his leadership on this issue throughout his time on energy and commerce an particularly over the last several months since i've been on the committee, trying to galvanize support if all of our colleagues to recognize the impact this is having every single day. mr. chairman, i want to thank you for including h.r. 4641 in this package of bipartisan opioid related bills. none of our districts have been spared the heartbreaking headlines about lives lost to opioid crisis. we've heard from each of our constituents who have attended funerals for friends, neighbors, classmates, colleagues and family members. the bills we are considering this week are a promising step forward as we find ways to respond to this crisis. my colleague, congresswoman brooks, thank you for your partnership on this issue and on so many others. we have both seen firsthand how a lack of access to treatment can lead those suffering from addiction to our courts. with this bill, we are trying to

mr. kennedy is assassinated, he gives a speech to the irish parliament, and he talks about the boxwood sprigs that the irish brigade put under the caps. and he says by that blood sacrifice, that's what made them american. and then he gives to the people of ireland a flag from that battle which was a harp and a sunburrst. and it -- burrst. -- burst. now back to the draft riots. 160,000 irish served on the union cause, and only two of the brigades had higher casualty rates. because of this, there's a lot of resentment by the middle part of the. it's not going well. the union is losing. they start a draft this 1863, but you want to talk about inequality? in that draft you could buy your way out for $200. so the rich never served the union cause unless they were noble, unless they had a higher calling. for $200 you could get out of the draft, or you could present a live person. so if i brought you in and said, bruce, you're going to take my place, i wouldn't have to serve. i would have paid you to be my body. this really ticked off the irish. they could not pay for this. and as they rolled the ba

mr. dreeben: so i agree with you -- justice kennedy: we're in agreement. mr. dreeben: i do agree with you, justice kennedy. i think that's exactly the position that your honor's opinion in evans, the separate concurrence, explained as a proper means of administering the quid 36 pro quo requirement as an intent to issue in a criminal case. there is a very critical protection here. it's a requirement of showing something beyond a reasonable doubt to a jury. and if you have ordinary conduct that's fully disclosed and in accordance with regulations which do strictly limit when people can receive lunches -- justice alito: i don't see what the relevance of those regulations is. you say you say there were certain safe harbors created by federal regulations. those apply to federal employees and federal officers. what do they have to do with a governor of a state or a state employee? mr. dreeben: well, they don't, justice alito. this case has been litigated on the submission that section 201 informed the meeting of "official action" for purposes of the hobbs act and the

mr. joe kennedy, senior fellow. for almost three decades, he has provided legal and economic advice to senior officials in the public and private sector involving technology, competitiveness, and the social contract. mr. kennedy previously served as the chief economist for the u.s. department of commerce and the senior economist for the joint economic committee. he holds a law degree and a master degree in agricultural and applied economics from the university of minnesota and a ph.d. in economics from george washington university. welcome to the committee. thank you. >> thank you very much. miss bruckner, you're recognized for five minutes. >> thank you for the invitation to join you today to discuss the tax compliance challenges of small businesses. i'm caroline bruckner. i'm also the managing director of the cogod tax policy sector which conducts nonpartisan research on tax and compliance issues specific to small businesses and entrepreneurs. at cogod, we're currently focused on the tax and compliance issues impa

mr. kennedy is assassinated, he gives us peace of the irish parliament and talks about genek and says, by that blood sacrifice, that is what made do american and then he gives a flag from the battle whd a sunburst. and it hangs in the irish parliament to this day from that battle. now back to the draft riots. 160,000 irish served, and only two of the brigades had high casualty rates. because of this, there is a lot of resentment. itit is not going well. the union is losing. bu you want to talk aboutli inequality, and that draft you could buy your way outway o for $200. so the rich never served the union cause unless they were noble, unless they had a higher calling. for $200 you could get out of the draft, or you could present a live person. so if i brought you in and said, bruce, you're going to take my place, i wouldn't have to serve. i would have paid you to be my body. this really ticked off the irish. they could not pay for this. and as they rolled the barrel in the first draft in american history, the names that came out were heir began, o'malley, you know, all these irish names. an

justice kennedy: under your view could the legislature -- mr. elias: i think they could have and would have a bert claim to standing. again under the arizona reindustries ticting case -- redistricting case. justice kennedy: the legislature who passes the law has great standing? mr. elias: we all are affected. all virginia voters are affected by the law. and members of congress have to -- the apellants in this case have to do better than that. they can't just say they are affected by the law. they have to show why they have a legally protected interest as justice kagen said. justice kennedy: it sounds to me like incumbency which cannot be protected. why can't the whole legislature assert it but not one? mr. elias: one thing i want to clarify from the record. it is not the case that we have concede nor is it the case that the court found nor the underlying facts of the case that the virginia legislature endeavored to protect incumbents. what mr. was said was quite specific. did he not want to pair them. did he not want to draw their houses out of t

mr. brian kennedy with us, brian, has to be very special day for you, as well?> absolutely, ukee, hey, jessica. what a great turn out. >> concerning the weather great survivors, so proud to sponsor this for 26 years, it is fantastic, great thing to do in the community. >> we love to be in the community. and we have talk about that over and over again, that we love being with our neighbors. this is an extension of that. we're a family at cbs, this is our family in the community. >> absolutely, and a lot of great work has done over 26 years, when we keep doing this, and the great turn out every year, we can beat this disease t can be fantastic. so we're in it for the long hall, we're excited to be a partner. >> indeed ryan thank you for your time man and your leadership. we appreciate t look, the rain has stopped. the man has arrived. thank you, sir, thank you, brian shall appreciate t nicole brewer is also here. we're just full of all sorts of fun guests right now, common in, nicole. this is our good question, go to, right here. and you recently did one on friday

mr. gray's death. kennedy: was this a rush to justice to calm tensions in baltimore? >> yes. in their rush to justice the prosecutors decided to charge everyone who touched him that day. they say if you stopped him on the street it led to the events that later killed him. theee quittal was quite proper. the people of baltimore should respect this decision. this is a african-american judge, a former public defender. a person who understands the constitution and the responsibilities of the state to prove this beyond a reasonable doubt. d soon before the same judge. kennedy: we'll keep an eye on those trials and the reaction in baltimore. in another judge a federal judge recorderred -- ordered the administration to release documents about the fast and furious gun running operation. >> i don't know what's there, but i do know the basic allegations. there is two of them, one is dumb and one is dark. the dumb allegation is the government beginning in the george w. bush justice department and continuing into the barack obama justice department, intentionally permitted these heavy du

mr. francisco: sure, your honor, he -- justice kennedy: what is the state of the law, and do the parties agree on this point? mr. francisco: your honor, i think that the parties agree that the governor at least had a bully pulpit authority, but he had very little authority to actually direct any university researcher to do anything. and here i think one of the critical there are two critical questions -- one, was the jury told that it even had to find that he tried to do that and here it wasn't, and, two, did he in fact do that. and we would assert that he clearly didn't. justice ginsburg: would it have made a difference if the medical faculties had agreed to the testing? mr. francisco: your honor, if they had agreed to the testing, i still don't think it would have made a difference in terms of whether governor mcdonnell tried to influence their decision on that, because he didn't. and it still wouldn't have made a difference on the jury instructions because the jury still wasn't instructed that it had to find that governor mcdonnell tried to influence a particular governmental decision,

justice kennedy: that's why it's necessary to hijack the plans. mr. verrilli: your honor, it's why the -- it is why the government's interest is advanced in the least restrictive manner. in the most effective manner. justice kennedy: is it right? the reason i get that you don't want to -- jn justice breyer: is it right? the reason you don't want women to ask for coverage is vast number of women will? quite a few who have religious objections won't? and then there will be that middle set of people who are in inertia bound and since they are inertia bound we can't say, no, that lowers the cost of health coverage later on? so the government has an interest in that. and therefore, there is an interest of some kind in not allowing a system in not having a system where the inertia bound have got to take initiative, do i have that right or do i have the other part right which is it's not hijacking because there is a federal regulation that says the infrastructure of the insurer's contraceptive-related plan belongs to the insurer, not to the person who buys th

commentator: is that kennedy from fox? mr. heyman: it does look like kennedy. yeah. it does.y the way, but tv interviewed -- book tv interviewed her. you can type in kennedy and freedom fest if you like to watch the interview. now what is with the clothes? mr. heyman: address on the red carpet -- a dress on the red carpet must be shown off. and any celebrity or model knows how to show it off. that is what is happening here. commentator: not many of us in washington know how to do that. mr. heyman: they need to have a seminar. -- there is fox. mr. heyman: it looks like the fox crew. commentator: you are watching the red carpet arrivals for the white house correspondents dinner. up.ill try to set [chatter] commentator: you are watching live coverage of the arrivals for the white house correspondents dinner. there is samantha augustine from usta from show -- aug the today show. twitter followers have called me out. had someone comments on msnbc. an anchor who is now on cnn. mr. heyman: cameron hall was very close to prince. there was talk she may not come tonight, she was very u

kennedy: here is mr. maloney sunday after a deputy pulled over his speeding lamborghini.er found probable cause maloney was under the influence of alcohol. for shame. you should take a page from my favorite probably sober lawyer. he would do wheelies all over your professional grave. should have called the law hawk. topic number 3. this next story was sent to us by thomas mclaughlin using the #topicalstorm. going through an automatic car wash is the closest of any us will have to a surfing safari it's fun and clean. but if your windshield wiper gets stuck at a weird angle, you just have to let it go. otherwise you might not goes the door fast enough. it just rips the door off. it's so funny. i love spineless destruction. the inside a car is sparkling and coated in warm polyurethane. topic number 4. i don't know if i have mentioned it before. but i really like that franchise known as "star wars." simon cowell of britain's got talent. take a look at the boogie storm. [♪] kennedy: those are the moves we have been looking for. yes, and you can definitely see the connection to

mr. johnson will be kennedy's guest tonight. tune in. you do not want to miss the conversation, 8:00 p.m. eastern time. >>> the dow, nasdaq, s&p, all up for may, making the dow and s&p 500's longest monthly winning streak in two years. if you look at the leading groups, tech, health care and finance. >>> next tuesday the all-important california primary on the democratic side. it is getting too close for comfort. hillary clinton canceling a new jersey event to head out to the golden state early. former republican presidential candidate tim pawlenty will tell me if he thinks senator sanders can beat hillary clinton in california. he is with me next. if a denture were to be put under a microscope, we can see all the bacteria that still exists. polident's unique micro clean formula works in just 3 minutes, killing 99.99% of odor causing bacteria. for a cleaner, fresher, brighter denture every day.

kennedy: with bill clinton saying this whole thing is a game, they have to be frustrated on top of the lines mrsthe press. >> the more he calls it a game and the more she accepts that. the more animated she and the justice department are. kennedy: the federal government, they are squaring off in court over the controversial bathroom law. opponents of the law says it protects women and potential presented towards. and the justice department says it violates the civil rights acts. >> the answer to who is right will probably be decided by a federal judge. should it be decided by individual rather than by a federal judge. should the city of charlotte which started all this or the legislature of north carolina which neutralized what charlotte did, be telling private businesses how to construct their bathrooms or should private businesses construct their bathrooms on the needs of the clientele. here is what the government claims. the law is the civil rights act of 1964, prohibits the discrimination on the basis of sex. not gender identity. loretta lynch says in 2016 the word sex means gender identity

mr. fenton. i watched that first benghazi hearing from kennedy and lamb and the guy said he felt like he was working behind enemy lines to get more security for the ambassador. i've come to the conclusion that if you're going to be the chair of a committee in congress they've got to have some dirt on you and that's why it's going nowhere. gowdy has something in his past and can't follow through with this. guest: i think committee chairmen are there at the be-nevada lance of the there's got to be accountability for the failure to make this a more salient public issue and feeling out what went on. instead, we've mentioned earlier that the benghazi is saying it's time to attack judicial watch instead of get the attack out. host: do you have faith in the fbi director? guest: i think the interest is the national security establishment bureaucratically that wants mrs. clinton indicted so the fbi is probably going to be interested in doing that. the fbi is too often immune from criticism here in washington d.c. i do not believe that it is immune from criticism. in the irs case it was implicated in that sca

mr. trump talked about john f kennedy in new york and so much of our infrastructure. everything seems to be old. the subway systems over 100 years old. is that something he will leave with building? i think democrats will go along with it. they like the union job if nothing else. >> it is obviously important. there are ways to do it. for instance, you look at over $2.1 trillion over seas because of our ridiculous corporate tax rate. we let that money come back in for six months period and use part of that for one of the projects that you are talking about and also create jobs for people who are unemployed or on welfare. these are the kind of things that would cost taxpayers one penny. >> it sounds like a good idea. democrats alone with the tax holaday. you are laughing but you know it is a problem. >> it is a problem and i think if we get in a room and we can talk together about america, not about democrats and republicans but about america and how do we keep it strong, how do we fix it, what can we do about education here? we have over 20% of people dropping out of h

mr. clinton: and the late senator edward kennedy, he had so much republican support that 76% of the congressoted for it. then, she passed a bill working with a republican leader of the house, that did not agree with us on anything. that dramatically changed the adoption laws for kids in foster care. there was an 80% increase in the adoption of kids out of foster care. [applause] mr. clinton: then, when she was a senator, she became the first new york senator on the armed services committee. and she worked with john mccain, lindsey graham, all the republicans to make sure they had the gear they needed. from iraq to afghanistan, making sure guns were in service. making sure that military personnel, when they came home, to make sure he took care of people with traumatic brain injuries and disorders. and building the military for the 21st century, she served on the pentagon to mention with newt gingrich, no less, on recommending the strategy we are dealing now with isis. no more of the middle east, send in the special groups and let them learn how to fight for themselves. [applause] mr. clinton:

mr. president. then he would go to bed chastened. kennedy: that's where executive order comes from. it acts as a salve for bruised feeling. >> i think he would damage the country further and do great damage to the right. >> and i would probably be deported back to russia. despite the fact we are citizens. >> i'm not a citizen yet. kennedy: michigan is seceding. >> i don't think he's going to do anything right. he will hire people. the best people. he's going to tweet web's going to talk. i don't think he wants to be president. i think he wants to win because he likes just winning stuff. kennedy: it's interesting you said that. hillary clinton doesn't want to be president either so she is putting bill in charge of the economy. maybe donald trump will put melania in charge of defeating isis because she has a great accent. >> i understand why hillary clinton said that, the 90s were a good time and bill clinton was popular. but it's the most embarrassing thing for the potential first woman president. if you elect me my husband will run the economy. >> he's the most popular elected offic

mr. arnett: i think it's clear from the panel discussions at this conference of an important policy of president kennedy, johnson and next in involving vietnam -- nixon involving vietnam were carefully concealed from the american public to maintain but i called. the media policies of all three president attended heavy-handed news manipulation and intimidation of reporters in the field and their superiors back home. the objective was to proceed with actions in vietnam that have publicly debated would meet resistance at home and concern abroad. compelders endeavored to a powerful news industry with a long tradition of bold, moral reporting to bend to the whims of policymakers making questionable judgments on issues important to the american public. judgments often made far from the battlefields. in earlier significant american wars, the government, with official censorship, took upon itself the burden of deciding what news was fit to print. what information gathered by reporters in the field might harm the security of military operations or what might not. in terms ofessage achieving the overall objective

mr. hopper: increased risk of enforcement, because the very existence of the jd constitutes prima facie evidence of a violation if one were to discharge without a permit. justice kennedythat sounds to me practical, not legal. mr. hopper: i think that is legal, your honor, also -- justice roberts: you -- mr. hopper: also, i would suggest, as this court recognized in sackett that this jurisdictional determination increases the risk of civil and criminal liability. justice roberts: does it affect the determination of willfulness on the part of the landowner? mr. hopper: it does, in two in two respects, your honor. when the when the court is looking at an agency at civil penalties, the clean water act requires that the court look at the good faith efforts, and by extension, the bad faith efforts. and now that we have a formal determination that these are waters of the united states, there's a knowing violation, which brings in potential criminal sanctions against the landowner, so -- justice kagan: mr. hopper, i'm sorry, please. mr. hopper: yes. justice kagan: isn't that true in every case of an opinion letter, whether it's from the government or for actually, from a priv

mr. updegrove: let me go back to john f. kennedy. there is widespread speculation that had he not been assassinated, president kennedy would have reversed course and withdrawn troops from vietnam, despite any evidence to that end. is there anything you saw from president kennedy that would suggest that over time, he would have withdrawn our support for the war in vietnam? dr. kissinger: i have never seen the slightest evidence of this. it is possible to say that he might would have done this. but all the moves of the kennedy administration while kennedy was alive were in the direction of increasing our commitments. and not diminishing it. all based on the belief that it was as simple a problem -- a simpler problem that it turned out to be. i've never seen as piece of paper that would indicate this, and all of the chief advisers of president kennedy who were taken over by president johnson when he became president were unanimous in both presidencies. in supporting it, until things got very difficult. and then, divisions appeared. but

kennedy , and they created a publicity record called "mr. lincoln's party today." the script is in the archives of the eisenhower library and in it, dwight eisenhower, who saw the script and helped plan the publicity record, crossed out some of the original planned wording and wrote these words telling a political philosophy. good republicans have divergent individual beliefs. good so-called conservative republicans, good middle-of-the-road republicans, but they have a shared fundamental principle. he felt the republican party had a wide tent. also, critically important, ronald reagan to be the narrator of this new gop record was perfectly fine with dwight eisenhower. on the record, reagan had introduced eisenhower and eisenhower thanked him. during the record himself, the individual themes of republicanism, individual freedom, smaller government, the -- they were emphasized, and the gop, having an inclusive tent for a conservative republicans in the middle of the road, was the theme of the record. after that, two years later, barry goldwater was running as the fir

selections absent consultation, then the nominees may enjoy my support, just as did justices kennedy and souter. that, mr. president, is precisely the approach that president obama is following here. moderating his selection in nominating judge garland, the president has not politicized the process. he has not nominated -- the president has not nominated some left-wing ideologue who thrills progressives but angers conservatives. you already heard what i quoted directly from our esteemed friend, the president pro tempore of the senate, senator hatch. the president has gone to the middle, seeking compromise. he's nominated someone who's widely regarded as sound and moderate and capable. indeed, not long ago leading republican senators, citing judge garland as the very example of the type of person they were hoping that the president would nominate. judge garland was the kind of person that my colleagues on the other side of the aisle said this is the kind of person we'd really like to see for this job. now there have been other attempts to defend the indefensible, and they all flow back to the facts that i

i noticed a letter from jackie kennedy addressed to the new president, five days after the assassination. and she wrote dear mr. president, thank you so much for walking behind jack on pennsylvania avenue. behind the kason. i know you didn't need to do that. i'm sure the secret service told you not to. please don't. but you did anyway. and it brought love and respect to the man. thank you also for taking the time to write two letters to my children about how your love and respected their father. they don't know it now but in time they will. and i thought this man who ascended to that role after that tragic condition took the time to write to two quhirn when the responsibility of the unbelievable burden of the presidency, taken over like that, is on top of you. and he wrote these two letters. that meant everything to me. it seeped into me and i said there's the soul of that man, the goodness of that man, as crude as he may be on the outside, as rough around the edges as he may be, that's his center. and it meant a lot. >> rose: and he also understood continue out in america. he wanted her in a photograph from t

which is a terrific library, i noticed a letter from debbie kennedy addressed to the new president five days after the assassination. she wrote mrt, thank you so much for rough -- walking behind jack on pennsylvania avenue. behind the case on. i know you did not need to do that and the secret service told you not to, you did it anyway, and it brought love and respect to the men. thank you also for taking the time to write two letters to my children about how your love and -- how you love and respect it might bother. -- their father. they might not know it now, but they will know it later. he took the time to write to chill children -- two children. when the unbelievable presidency was taken over like that, and he wrote these two letters, that meant everything to me. ofaid, there is the sole that man, the goodness of that man. as crude as he may be on the outside, rough and edgy on the outside, that is his center. understood that annuity in america. he wanted his photograph with her when he took the oath of office. bryan cranston: he felt it would be terribly disrespectful if she was not included. she is in agony. everyone is ups
