mr. roberts, our alaskan of the week, was there on omaha beach in 1944. he eventually marched all the way into germany with the u.s. army, all the way across europe. mr. president, he was part of the heroic mission that saved the world! that is not an exaggeration. mr. roberts served three years, was awarded the european campaign medal with three bronze stars, representing three difficult battles across europe that he fought in. and here's the thing, mr. president, got to remember this, it's 1944. our military was fully segregated, and black soldiers were discriminated against. in fact, it took until 1948 for president harry truman to order the armed forces to be integrated. 16 years before the passage of the civil rights act. but this patriot, despite the discrimination, was fighting for america. how did mr. roberts make it through these order he'lls -- ordeals, incredible ordeals of fire? prayer, he said. quote, every day i prayed. when i got home, i was so grateful to be back in the united states. mr. president, when he got out of the military, made his

mrs. roberts former colleague was not delivered to the supreme court.spattered ran congress, because there's no inbox for somebody at the supreme court with a concern about ethics take drop off a complaint. even if they had that in bucks, is nobody emptying the inbox, there's nobody conducting the investigation into the allegations. there's nobody to reach conclusion based on the ethics code. there's no resolution and report at the end. in my line of work, you can go through the senate ethics committee to have them investigated, after they complain. in the executive branch, you can go to the inspector general, the entirety general and they can look into the complaints about some of these ethics. in the lower courts, you can go to the chief judge of the court and say that i have this ethics claim, and they look into it. in fact, there were a whole raft of ethics investigations pending against brett kavanaugh when he moved up to the supreme court. they all vanished because there is no profit for the supreme court. they have to fix that. >> not to mention,

mr. robert kraft. he joins us now. good morning, bob. how you doing? >> good morning.at to be with you on this topic. >> hey, bob, have you spoken to tom? >> actually, we have talked a lot and he facetimed me yesterday. nothing about this. just, you know, it was the first day and he had his two younger children with him. he really seemed happy. and they were happy. and i loved it because his little daughter -- well, both of his kids, they call me rkk and they say, we miss you, we haven't seen you. and, you know, it's just tommy, he is a fierce competitor, but he brings love and a great warm feeling to everything he does. here he is in his house in a time like this and his kids are exuding love to someone else and warm feelings. that's what he did and does even in the huddle. as fierce as a competitor as he is, he gets people to come in and be connected as part of the team and feel very special. >> just with that, we could end the interview there. we told our viewers no one had more insight than bob kraft, right? >> that's true. you really loved him like a son. that is

mrs. roberts, including $690,000 in 2012 for one such match. recalled her recruitment of one candidate, ken salazar the then interior secretary under president obama to a global law firm that posts of arguing more than 125 times before the supreme court. the complaint has testimony from jane roberts herself which she notes the powerful officials whose agencies have had cases before her husband for whom she has worked. she said this about the benefit of working with senior officials, successful people have successful friends. a spokesperson for the supreme court said in a statement to "the new york times" that all the justices were attentive to ethical constraints and complied with financial disclosure laws. joining us is host of the amicus podcast, danica liftwikc. i put this out there to i guess the chief justice, 7% of all americans, according to gallup have a great deal of trust in the u.s. supreme court. it's hard to get a number smaller than 7 but it seems like they're trying. >> yeah there is this cart horse problem in some sense which is

mr. robert malley, president of rapid in energy group, you're recognized for five minutes. >> jay roberts, distinguished members of the committee, i'm bob mcnally, president of rapid an energy group. two years working for president bush, i am an analyst, historian, and student of the energy markets policy in geopolitics. i like to briefly summarize my view and where we're going with oil prices, and we start with a good news. the best part of the last 20 years is that opec is no longer controlling the global oil market. let me tell you the bad news. the best marvelous 20 years, opec is no longer controlling the global oil market. that is why we are seeing a return of the price volatility. it's paradoxical be true. when oil market does not have a successful double supply manager, or before it detects the railroad commission, oil prices wildly gyrating boom and bust cycles and hurt our society, economy, and environment. -- we're what we've seen in the past. oil prices are going to gyrate between 5 to 7 year boom phases when they go, up and bust faces when they go down. the late summer 2021,

mr. roberts, we're being circumspect being very, very circumspect in their i imagine their words. a lot of police officers saying a lot of police officers saying a lot more than that their lot more than that under their breath. but , lot more than that under their breath. but, you breath. didn't help but, you know, when the dust has settled, there's a to look at in this there's a lot to look at in this particular obvious particular case. the obvious thing know, did she fall thing is, you know, did she fall did jump? was she pushed? did she jump? was she pushed? will don't forgive me will i mean, don't forgive me for saying lied for even saying because she lied when into the water. when she went into the water. all these questions need to be resolved. but right now, id is the thing. closure or the important thing. closure or a completely new case to be resolved? but above all, i think the people realise that this is kind of vicarious business of looking into other people's private lives . it's not healthy, private lives. it's not healthy, it's not good. and i still think, i don't k

mr. schnapper: i'm a little concerned to know where it's taking me. it's an analogy of -- [laughter] chief justice roberts: that's what we call question. mr. schnapper: you have to fit t within the four walls of the statute. perhaps you can tell me what lies ahead. sure, it's an analogy, of course. [laughter] chief justice roberts: what lies ahead is the idea that you can look at that and say, it's not pitching something in particular to the person who's made the request. it is recognizing that it's a request about a particular subject matter and it's there on the table and they might want to look at that or they may not want to look at it. but it's really just a 21st century version of what has taken place for a long time in many context which when you ask a question people are putting together a group of things. not necessarily precisely answering your question. i mean, if somebody says -- mr. schnapper: all right. i think i know where you're going here. insofar as i go to youtube and say, show me a cat -- it's more complicated than this. tell me what cat videos you have and in responding to that, they'

roberts: thank you, counsel. ms. khanna: thank you, yo honor. >> mr. chief justice andayt please the court, the district court's factual findings make this an extreme d ypical case of vote dilution. voting in alabama is intensely racially polarized, about a stk anywhere in the country. the history and effects of racial discrimination are severe. black voters are sufficiently underestimated a sficiently numerous and compact to form a majority in a reasonably configured district. section t's results test was sied for this kind of case. for that reason alabama is not askingheourt to apply section two as it has been applied, but asking the court to racally change the law by inserting this concept of re neutrality and limiting section two to intentional discrimination. that approach would delete the text cgrs added in 1982 and srards three decades of this court president and would have drastire-world consequences. under the states approach nothing would stop alabama from dismantling their existing majority minority distric, leaving black voters with no abil

robert f. kennedy: well, first, as far as mr. meredith is concerned, mr. meredith began his efforts to enter the university of mississippi in january 1961. there was no involvement at l, directly or indirectly, by the government. in fact, i never even knew about mr. meredith having made an effort to try to enter the university of mississippi. in fact, the government did not become involved in the dispute in connection with the state of mississippi until september of 1962. mr. meredith had followed the question of his entrance into the university through the courts, through the district court, and through the circuit court. ultimately, it came to the supreme court in the hands of justice black. and justice black then asked the federal government and the department of justice to eer into the case. that was the first time the united states government in any way, or i, in any way, was involved in the case of james meredith. the question was whether we were going to follow the orders of the court of the united states. now, i don't believe that the's anybody her

it is unlike something that had been witnessed and one can only imagine how fearful robert and mrs. parris are at this moment. now, when we talk about reverend parris. i'm sure those of you present this is a name you've heard and. if you've ever seen, maybe some television programs about the witch trials movies, reverend parris is often labeled as one of the bad guys of this story, one of whom is to blame for the witch hunt. and he will have a fair share of blame as this moves forward. other times, though, he's portrayed as like engineering this. i don't really buy into that with. him being, as i said, halfway fired, having something super weird starting in your house is not going to get you greater job security that only going to hurt his position at this moment in time. it cannot be helpful at that point and he tries to keep it quiet eventually. this this illness, this this being unwell will spread people on far corners of salem village. we get a teenage young women, young women in their early twenties, middle aged women, young men. it will spread this this, this being unwell and

roberts: thank you, counsel. ross: thank you, youronor. >> mr. chief justice in may it please the court, alabama sets pend the section does go standard that has governed redistrictinfo40 years, but the novel theory not only defies statutory text and president, but would cause profoun people for states and cous d minority voters. requiring a race blind motration at gingles woodberry courts initation and new maps created in reliance on the existing sndard. nearly every majority minority district would become a target. alabama's lice on untested simulations would unravel decades of progress and take us backo time with little to no minority representation of the federal, state and locals. is court should reaffirm its established section does go it limits the scope of liability and insureds with increased progress becomes decreased enforcemt. declining, making sativa cahi -- making satisfaction of gingles impossible, but that is not the case in alabama. i welcome the courts questions. >> is there empirical evidence that if the alabama argument out hav

mr. carter for his strength and humility, adding that they hope he continues his journey with grace and dignity. cbs's robert is in the former president's hometown of

mr. leslie didn't bring up the issue of a fighter, jasper bay, the president of the parliament did. yes, and that was also very a remarkable. and i think she was the one robert m at saw the president of the european parliament who mentioned a request for fighter jets in her speech. calling on member state saying that they need to provide whatever you create needs among the heavy weaponry, a fighter jets. and that was a very strong support for the ukranian president. and we can be sure that the topic alpha advance weapons will be a key issue in his talks with european leaders here in brussels to day and a lot of fangs from the ukrainian or president or to the european union for having ukraine. but as we put, i'm just reminders what the you, who has done so far to help or ukraine to defend itself against a russian. this will the european union member states have provided ukraine with weapons and to military equipment, words, almost 12000000000 euros. so far we heard from the foreign policy chief for l here today that the you is ready to step up its military assistance. and the you is also slated to provide ukraine with 18000000000 euros in financial help this

the president to the european parliament of robert matsola, and then they went up to the european parliament itself, where zelensky had a speech. before that, mrssola herself took the floor, and she, as if understanding the purpose of zelensky's visit to brussels as part of this european tour, said , addressing other western countries, that they should consider the possibility of supplying ukraine everything she asks for. and it was primarily about long-range missiles and fighter jets . zelensky later, when the summit of the leaders of the eu countries had already started, said that there is no right to return home without a result at all. at least zelenskyi himself spoke about this, we had a very powerful meeting, i think it is very important, i perceive it positively , and let's say so about the specifics , i don't want to formulate a lot now, i will say publicly. so we worked on strengthening a-a our capabilities in the direction of offensive actions when it appears in our state, our state will know about it, we do not want to fully feed the russian federation, which daily threatens aggression and revenge sentiments, another key topic that w

cassius as well, and i reprint the will in the book because he, robert e lee, ends up as the executor although legally it's mrs lee inherits arlington house and custis says that all the enslaved persons should be freed within five years and but at the same time, each of the seven grandchildren need to inherit $10,000, which is a lot more money back then. so lee is stuck with this kind of no win situation where he's supposed to make the two plantations profitable enough to come up with that money for the and he's not inclined to free the slaves. the slaves themselves had been told and they testified to this in court cases that they had been promised their freedom in spontaneously. so lee delays. and so it's not until the middle of the civil war or december of 1862, right after the battle of fredericksburg, that lee frees slaves. so after custis dies. this is the final photo of him, which i'll come back to that i think this is his grave at arlington house. that's his wife's there on the right. and you can see that oak tree has is damaging those tombs. and we're hoping that the army will do something about that.

to robert o'brien now, the former national security advisor under president trump. mr.rien, very good to have you. what do you think of the chinese posture on this? i joked on air, sir, that i don't know what mandarin for chutzpah but first of all, condemn us for downing their spy balloon and then to say we should repair it and give it back and then to say they got to punish us for these actions because they're beyond the diplomatic norm, that is over the top and it is not getting any warmer, what do you think of it? >> the chinese humiliated us with this spy balloon crossing the breadth and width of the united states and no consequences. the only consequence they had is that secretary blinken didn't meet with wang yi in beijing but met with him in germany. they met with him in germany, no matter what they do to support the russians in ukraine, no matter what they do to the united states germany will continue to be their trading partner. so you know, today tiktok is in 100 million households. it is like 100 million chinese balloons all over the place. we're buying milli

robert and married him. and when she started to do poorly healthwise after the birth of their first daughter together, eleanor, they decided they needed to come west. mr. chambers had lost his first wife, whose name was mary, right after she had given birth to his son ben and so he wasn't going to risk anything. so they came west on the train in 1874, stopping in wisconsin to see family and then coming on to colorado and then someone on the on the train told them that they should really check out colorado springs. and so after he had gotten elsie settled to rest in denver, robert came down the spur line to colorado springs and just fell in love with it. he was amazed with the town, which probably not just for its beauty, but also for its culture, which we're going to get to eventually. and so they came down here, lived in the house for a while until they were able to purchase this property from walter galloway in november of 1874 and in april they moved onto the property, the kitchen was the only part of the house that had been completed, so they lived in their until the rest of the house was finished remarkably fast. it was june of 1875 when they fir

mr. president , there were no details in the post of volodymyr zelenskyi selling the ticket, and the tweet was quickly deleted because the office of the president of the european parliament, robertzoly , began to call from the office of the president of the council of the european union, charles-michel, where the summit will actually take place. that the information about the visit was supposed to be secret for security reasons, but apparently someone from the european people's party found out that volodymyr zelenskyi will probably speak in the european parliament, so they decided about it there be the first to tell and the western media even began to write about the competition of institutions for glory, officially the visit of the ukrainian president is still not confirmed by anyone, so despite the expectations of the media, the intrigue continues, but the ukrainian community, for example, is already gathering a sign of support for our president tomorrow, a demonstration in the euroquarter. well, now to the essence of tomorrow's events of the session of the european parliament and the summit of the leaders of the european union, because regardless of whether volodymyr zelensky

roberts and our whole team kareem out, lee. we all in this together fighting for justice, for you. my bye for you, mr. rodney, fighting for justice. and so when we do the call to action, it really is a plea for justice. it is a plea for terry nichols, the son. it is a plea for justice for terry nichols. the brother. it is a plea for justice for terry nichols the father. but most of all, it is a plea for justice for terry nichols, the human being the human being and when we watch, we don't see the mere 1st police department. scorpion unit extend one out of humanity doing that one hour a 7 minute bitty young asha labor. why couldn't they see their humanity and tyree turned to your neighbor? ask them then. why couldn't they see their humanity and tyree files . mamma turned to your neighbor again. i asked him, why can they see their humanity and tyree and finally for his social turn to your neighbor an axe. why couldn't they see their humanity in tyree? because we have to make sure they see us as human beings. and worse, we acknowledge that we're human beings, worthy of respect and justice. there we have

mr. gomez those are the returning members. across the country the new members are melanie stansberry of new mexico, robert garcia of california,axwell from florida, summarily from pennsylvania, dan goldman from new york and sharon moskowitz. it's hard for me not today to think about my fellow maryland are elijah cummings who is chairman and ranking member of the committee not sohi long ago elijah recruited me to oversight and taught me the central purpose of the committee ourf jb is not as an opportunity or a violator of g the rights but rather as the protector of the rights and liberties and to be effective and efficient instrument of the common good and i take the duty seriously and i'm committed to ensuring with you and effective and efficient government that delivers meaningful benefits to the people that we serve and i've taken the liberty of purchasing out of my own pocket i hasten to add a copy of common sense for every member of the committee, republican, democrat, the pamphlet that launched the revolution because what we need to proceeding to succeed in the committee is common sense to use the senses and the reason to
