mrs. marshall -- [ laughter ] i'd be praying that mrs. marshall would answer, it made a big difference, the big difference it made was this, if mrs. marshall answered the phone, the justice would come on and he would be very civil. he'd be very nice, very polite. very civil. if she did not answer the phone and you got to 4i78 first, it could be a very tough conversation >> i remember about the capital cases that his charge to us was not merely to execute categorically he said comb the cases to see if we can get it reversed. was not a extract point. he wanted to save a life. the phone calls came with the question, have you dug into this. is there something specific that we can say. >> this >> this one of my most vivid memories, and for many reasons that capital punishment were playing a more significant role in the court more than today, and firstoff, there were more execution, and so a week, that there would be usually several executions a week at that time. there were fewer procedural bars, and so a lot of what we are doing now, a few peo

mr. marshall.and the reason why that was so significant is that because of jim crow etiquette, black men were not referred to as mister. if you were a black physician, you might be called doctor so and so if you were a black minister you would be called reverend so and so but black men did not get the honor of mister. and it was a sign of how distinguished thurgood marshall was that the judges and the other lawyers called him mr. marshall. i heard about that all the time growing up. and so with that backdrop, of course, it was a tremendous thrill. >> was it part of why you became a lawyer? >> in part, i'm sure. my father just -- again, it was just -- i'm sure it influenced my brother. i have an older brother who is a lawyer. but we heard about -- we heard about that argument a hundred times. >> i don't know if it is one of the books but there is a story about the justice needed when he was practicing in his early 50s and needed a writ and needed to see the chief justice and the chief justice was no

mr. marshall: madam president? the presiding officer: the senator from kansas. mr. marshall: thank you, madam president. america has seen number of horrendous financial crises before, but none that have so quickly developed as the fiscal crisis this white house created with trillions of dollars of drunken spending and taxes proposals. the most glaring, almost parity-level example, is the administration's $3.5 trillion and growing newly labeled human infrastructure package, which is nothing more than a rosy sounding title for socialism. the results of these radical tax-and-spending policies -- what are they? a sluggish economy, inflation and one of the most dramatic expansions of the welfare state in recent history. recently the department of labor reported consumer prices climbed for the third straight monthjumping over 5% in june. every day we see inflation impacting hardworking americans. this past weekend we held five town hall meetings in kansas and thanks to this administration's economicpologieses, runaway inflation has replaced covid at the top of the mountain

mr. marshall and asked him to let me come up there and talk to him and his staff and for them to help me with the legal work, and the first case that we filed was one of the cases that [inaudible] was counsel of record for me on that case. of course he went on to become a justice on the supreme court. >> absolutely. we do have a question. i know you were interested in talking about the tuskegee study and your work on that which was ground breaking. >> i had been filing suits for discriminating against african americans. in many instances the judge had designated the justice department to be a party to it then i found in 1972 that the government itself had been engaged in a deadly deception with over 623 african americans in macon county, which tuskegee's county seat in connection with a study of untreated syphilis in the negro males and didn't tell them about it. i had to file a lawsuit against them. of course you can only file a lawsuit against the government, the way they say you can do it, and the terms and conditions of it, we were finally able to get that settled as much as we could

mr. marshall and asked him to let me come up there and talk with him and his staff and for them to help meh legal work. the first case that we filed was one of the cases that he and robert carter -- he went on to become a justice on the supreme court. >> we have a question. i know you were interested in talking about the tuskegee syphilis study and your work on that, which was groundbreaking. can you give us a summary of that? >> i have been filing a lot of suits against the state of alabama for discriminating against african-americans. in many instances, the judge that designated people, the justice department to be a party to it. i found out in 1972 that the government itself had been engaged in a deadly deception of over 623 african-americans in macon county, of which tuskegee is a county seat. in connection with a study of untreated syphilis of the negro mail and did not tell them about it. i had to file a lawsuit against them. you can only file a lawsuit against the government the way they say you can do it and on their terms and conditions. we finally were able to get that settled as

mr. marshall: madam president. the presiding officer: the senator from kansas. mr. rshall: i ask unanimous consent to use a prop during my remarks. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. marshall: madam president, i rise today to join my colleagues in opposing the motion to discharge president biden's nominee to lead the bureau of land management, tracy stone-manning. since ms. stone-manning's first hearing in the beginning of june, members of the energy and natural resources committee have garnered copious amounts of information that disqualifies her for this role in our federal government. ms. stone-manning was involved in a tree spiking plot as a member of the group earth first. a tree spike being lot -- i have to tell you, madam president, i didn't know what tree spiking was until a couple weeks ago. could you imagine taking this nail and driving it into a tree with the hopes it would deter that tree from ever being cut down? the concern is, someone that would take a chainsaw cutting through a tree, that they would hit this spike, what would happen. now, i

the other question i have is reference federal air marshals here . so mr. ondocin, do federal air marshals currently have all the necessary authorities to address any and all issues around airline or passenger security in the air? >> yes, sir we do. federal air marshals have authority under title 49. they would have the same authorities as any other federal law enforcement officer in the government but we have the appropriate authorities to conduct our mission. >> thank you. so it's an issue around the passenger having an issue with one of the employees on the plane in the air, that marshall has the authority to intercede? >> yes, sir pic if the crime is committed on board an aircraft by a passenger, our federal air marshals do have the authority to enforce the law and make an arrest. >> so if it's an issue around a mask or if it's any other issue, i don't want to split hairs with crime, but if this passenger was just being totally unresponsive to the directions of the staff, that air marshal undercurrent authorities can intercede? >> the time of the gentlem

mr. marshall: madam president? the presiding officer: the senator from kansas. mr. marshall: thank you, madam president. this past week we held 12 town halls back moment in my home state of kansas. we heard from kansans about a variety of issues, but thanks to this administration's economic policies, runaway inflation has replaced covid at the top of the mountain of concerns for the people from my state. now, make no mistake about it, the inflation harming checking accounts of kansans and all americans rests squarely on the shoulders of the socialist economic policies coming out of the white house, otherwise known as bidenomics. as we all know, yesterday the department of labor reported consumer prices climbed for the third straight month, jumping over 5% in june, the largest increase in 13 years. gas prices are up, groceries are up, utilities are up, and i could go on and on. every day we see the bidenomics of inflation impacting hardworking americans. in fact, inflation is a great social injustice. inflation is really a regressive tax. it hurts everyone, but none m

mr. ondocin. i'm going to ask about the federal air marshals here. i do recognize that tsa employees -- employs a number of air marshals that the exact number is a sensitive security information issues that can't be discussed in this forum. but speaking generally given the recent increases and disturbances on flights, do you have a need for more air marshals? and is the current rate at which the fans that are on board and able to respond to these incidences sufficient? >> thank you. mr. lajoye, mr. ondocin could you just nod if you are hearing me? there's no connectivity. >> i hear you very well, madam chair, so it must be on very end. >> yeah, yeah. >> i hear you, madam chair. >> mr. gimenez and chairman thompson, we're going to take deposit and see if we can straighten this out. so we'll be in recess until you can connect again to our witnesses. let me gavel is back in session. we are now back in session, thank you. as i was saying i'm particularly concern with the reports of 85 assaults against tsa officers since the start of this pandemic. i woul

i don't know if that should be directed at the fire marshal or at mr. torso who has been extremely quiet today. >> when the misunderstanding was happening, we did analysis to find out how many people we would need to be able to maintain that. that kind of frequency came out to be somewhere around six or eight people. earlier in the program, there was discussion about prior to the budget, i gave chief some information, i believe it was four extra people to be able to manage the program without certain parameters. >> we have the commitment from the mayor's office, they recognize the issue obviously, the entity of fire prevention in general is fee recovery and supports itself. we will be analyzing the need for additional resources as far as the levels of it. was just talking yesterday about staffing levels as well. we will ensure we are appropriately staffed and there are some mechanisms to receive additional revenues through the tax records office for certain programs. we are communicating this and our needs to the mayor's office for sure. >> thank you. i

marshall? >> thank you, mr. steele. to the board commissioners and to lieutenant matthews, on behalf of the alliance of black educators, the naacp, we support the university of kentucky for this equity audit. it is necessary at this time and in the history of the sfusd. hopefully in future years, we may need to have an equity audit for all schools in the system to make sure that every student has equal access to a great phenomenal public education. thank you. >> operator: thank you. hello, luis, i had to promote you to panelist, so your video will be showing. are you there? lois or luis? >> oh, can you hear me? >> yes, go ahead. >> hi, good evening. you've missed the very first step in this whole process, which is you need to bring in an outside unbiased group team to do an actual investigation for the school for these very serious accusations of racism. i've said this before, i'll say it again. the u.s. department of education office of civil rights, o.c.r., does this all the time. it investigates accusations of racism

marshals, and every other law enforcement service, money not well spent. trey: mr. schroeder, i looked at her campaign web site, she promised to be soft on crime, tough on the cops, is this beyond what the people who voted for her? i think she was just reelected, is this beyond what her supporters had in mind? or is this what they wanted? >> i believe there is probably a core group who wanted this. if you walked in the neighborhoods, that i'm in, this is not what the people in those neighborhoods wanted, they need tough on crime, they need the police out there every days. making sure their neighborhoods are safe. kim gardner goes to work every day, and her fourth floor of her building it is safe. it is unbelievable the level of crime in the city of st. louis, in the neighborhoods that need police, and does not seem like mrs. gardner wants to issue the cases of people coming there. there was a 9-year-old that was shot last year, shot and killed. the guy confessed to killing the 9-year-old, she kept playing move the goal most with the defense issue, not for feds getti

worked at the john marshall house in those years previously and at this point they are back in the family home. they had a nephew that the call to the road was tucked away. now at the space. mrs. during the harvey sisters. and so it's probably in there. >> and then in 1962 of doctor mason in the room with the enormous conservation effort over 600 hours of work. the marshall house was transferred to the stewardship of the virginia antiquities and in 1913 the house was open to the public on that opening weekend the star attraction for the harvey sisters. when emily died in 1920 it was part of the permanent collection. what has been exhibited in various spots around the house generally shown in the mansion including the smithsonian 1967. for many years of display, exposure to late light and stress on the fibers by hanging at have compounded to the fragility of the remarkable object. sometimes it is the worst enemy. that make it more sensitive and those to be involved in the processing of black fabric and then that structure and also increases the rate so also to be sensitive to changes of temperature and humidity as well as exposure to uv rays. with the many years of display and

marshal's service uses to transport prisoners. apparently they were successful in getting their client out of jail. some people have asked whether this deal signals if mrbarrack will cooperate in any ongoing investigations, especially those involving the former president. our reporting indicates there is no indication of that. paula reid, cnn, washington. >>> house speaker nancy pelosi is working to get more republicans on the committee that will investigate the deadly january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol. sources telling cnn she is seriously considering naming republican representative adam kinzinger to the panel to bolster its bipartisan credibility. she may also tap republicans who are not currently serving in the house. the republican house minority leader pulled all five of his picks from the committee after pelosi nixed two of them for their roles in trying to overturn the presidential election results. >> it was wrong having one or two members of your conference join with -- >> look, you know it, and we predicted it back at the very beginning. this is a sham committee that's politically driven by speaker pelosi. >> it's my responsibility as sp

marshals use to move people around the country, and it appears that they have been successful, and as long as the judge approves this deal, mrse we need to read into that? >> reporter: it's notable, because some people on twitter are asking, does this mean he's cooperating as part of a deal? absolutely not. this is just the terms of a bail agreement. because of his vast wealth, this is likely going to have to be a very significant bail package. he's going to have to put up a lot to convince the court that he -- and to convince the justice department that he is not a serious flight risk. now, i've spoken to a source close to this case who tells me at this point, even though he's a long-time ally and associate of former president trump, that he has no intention of cooperating at any state or federal investigation into the former president, his businesses, or his family. now, sometimes people say that. they say, i'm not going to cooperate. it's very expensive to defend yourself in this kind of case. sometimes people realize they can't afford to defend themselves and they end up having to cooperate. but mr. barrack has enormous

marshal service. i don't have the exact count but it's north of 500. >> mr. miller, you were acting secretary of defense during the events on january 6, correct? >> yes, sir. >> in that capacity you authorized a national guard deployment as requested by the mayor of d.c. prior to those events, correct? >> yes. >> your testimony states that you discussed this with the president for less than a minute on january 3 and that the president said to give the mayor the support she requested. is ta correct? >> yes. >> and your testimony also states that president trump had no role with respect to the department of defense's efforts on january 6 to respond to the capitol, is that correct? >> yes, that's what i got paid to handle. >> can you confirm that on january 6, the white house did not at any time order this national guard to stand down or impede the deployment of the national guard to the capitol? >> without equivocation or hesitation, that is correct. that did not happen. >> that's the headline of this hearing, much to the disappointment of my colleagues on the

mr. cravens, i would like to direct the second line of questioning with you. i was struck by the construction you used, marshal plan for main street. i may adopt that with your permission. i would posit with the american rescue plan funds in massachusetts, 5 billion for states and cities with the upcoming infrastructure bill that we'll pass, billions more for transit for complete streets, we have a generational opportunity for a marshal plan for main street with president biden and a democratic congress r.there areas you would encourage cities and states that will have a lot of latitude that they should be directing these investments into to accomplish this marshal plan for main street? >> thanks for the question, congressman. the congressional black caucus has actually included the domestic marshal plan as the title piece of their jobs and justice act that they have introduced over the last two congresses so i would simply say that you should sign on as a co-sponsor if you let them and support the bill, but thank you for that. what i would suggest, congressman, are a couple of things. i think the congress and

marshals office and u.s. attorney office with ice and many others, i believe in coordination and it's important to fulfill the mission of ice i would be committed to continuing that. >> thanks so much. mr santos, the census director and i think it was june 2021, the general accountable the office, tio published a report that found plant innovations magic during the 2020 census bureau operations and increasingly costly decennial count at the same time the report made recordations for improving the way for census bureau tracks the benefits and costs seen it attributable to specific innovation areas. can you please share how you might work them to implement open recommendations and other lessons learned in the 2020 census as the bureau begins? >> thank you, i believe it is important to work with gao, i believe they are an ally to the census bureau in terms of informing them on cost efficiencies and other types of strategies that can be used in terms of creating a more effective and efficient census operation. i also believe gao represents one of a number of stakeholders that can" should be consulted to get their ideas, their innovations that they offer in order to consider for the upcomin

mr. rosen: how can you say that? we sent over 500 officers and agents on an urgent basis on january 6 to provide assistance at the capitol. tsa agents, fbi agents, u.s. marshals. i think we should be applauded, congressman. representative: i certainly applaud the frontline capitol police and all the people who came here. i definitely do that and we are all in agreement. but january 5 would have been a better day to send them. hold on. this was not an intelligence failure. the news was out there. it was as plain as day. it was a cavalier decision that was made, in my view, on the basis of the fact that it was inconceivable that a trump rally could result in an attack on the capitol. so it wasn't taken with the seriousness that would have been applied had it in any other instigator than president trump. thank you. i yield back. mr. rosen: i differ with that. but you are misunderstanding who is responsible for security at the capitol, which is the capitol police. at the request of one of our witnesses, we will take a five minute bathroom break. [gavel striking block] >> washington journal, every day taking your calls live on air on the news of the date and discu

mr. marshall: every corner of the state was speck celd with tractors, grarn carts and truck doing their partn the harvest process. inside those implements were fathers, sons, sisters, mothers, brothers and my cousins working side by side to harvest the crop that would provide the harvesting for land payments, operating loans for next year's inputs like seed and fertilizer. agriculture is a capital intensive industry, much more than i could have ever imagined. harvesting wheat requires four pieces of machinery many costing $250,000 or $5,000 or more each. it takes years for a farmer to build up equity to purchase a new piece of equipment or land and for many families it's only by passing down the land and equipment that a family farm can remain viable. this is the only way a young farmer can truly survive. the common saying in kansas is that farmers live poor but die rich. across this great nation, contrary to most people's beliefs, 98% of farms and ranches are family owned. 98% family owned. those families produce much of the food, fuel, and fiber we consume here in the united states and aro

mr. president, i ask unanimous consent that the following interns in my office be granted floor prills for the remainder of the congress, thai sharp, virginia smith, gramy marshal and jack hartman. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. paul: thank you. i notice the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: mr. paul: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from kentucky. mr. paul: i ask unanimous consent to vitiate the quorum call. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. paul: mr. president, i ask unanimous consent that we go ahead and commence with the previously arranged vote. the presiding officer: is there objection? hearing none, without objection. morning business is closed. under the previous order, the senate will proceed to executive session and resume consideration of the following nomination, which the clerk will report. the clerk: nomination, department of energy. jill hruby of new mexico to be under secretary for nuclear secretary. -- for nuclear security. the presiding officer: under the previous order, the question occurs on the nomination. is there a sufficient second? there app
