they had come to rescue mussolini. man leading them was ss captain Ãscorsese was a fascinating figure, totally useless, Ãa scar on his cheek that he was very proud of. he was a very inventive commando. he headed the ss special operations just outside the concentration camp. he was totally dedicated. hitler came to him and said, i want you to lead a mission to get mussolini out of the hands of the italians who are imprisoning him. if you know mussolini, italian dictator, strutting dictator, had been Ãbstripped of his power by the time Ãbstripped of his power by the italian government. they put them in this fortress and kept him there until they made up their decision of what to do with him. he looked at this problem he'd been given by hitler and it was very daunting. the only way up the mountain was one single cable car up 7000 feet and surrounded by a battalion of italian troops. you could storm it. you couldn't drop paratroopers out of the sky because it was 7000 feet the winds would blow them off to montauk. in the m

he leads his men to the fortress of mussolini and the italians give up without much of a fight. the nights later there is scorsese bringing mussolini to hitler and hitler is overjoyed, scorsese get promoted to major and afterwards told them i want you to head operation long jump. another impossible mission to target the allied leaders. she takes this challenge and is now famous to the world. the press is calling him the most dangerous. he assembles his team but he still has a major problem. he doesn't know where or when or if the meeting is going to take place. oddly enough, in the fall of 1943, that is the same problem facing fdr. on november 2, if the articles into the oval office mike bradley, the head of the secret service detail and gives him a special mission. he wants them to find out if a meeting is going to take place. bradley is a hero of my story, the night of the assassins. she gets the job in charge of fdr security at 31-years-old, former football college store in montana. he takes the job two days after pearl harbor and is immediately overwhelmed, he describes hims

image of labor nardo as inventor which he himself never claimed to be 1st emerged driven by benito mussolini to support his fascist ideology the dictator recast davinci as a universal genius and a leading figure ever talian creative strength was done and was initiated an exhibition not just initiated he ordered it to be and it was done and for that exhibition models were created from the vinci sketches for the 1st time. models that simply ignored errors in the original sketches the exhibition travelled from milan to the us cemented japan where it was destroyed in an air raid last only how amazingly the exhibition is gone mostly need is gone is gone. to the cult of leonardo d.m. venter has remained mute this if enough leonardo is complete and that mythology continues to this day ringback. now melissa we don't know how many paintings as i said 15 or so you think it could be 20 there's lots of discussion about that but he did have these books notebooks 7000 pages of drawings and inventions and all that stuff in his novels but really still love as a painter yeah and still there is some doubt abo

only a few days before mussolini had been killed by italian partisans.home shores, general eisenhower returned in triumph. but in the pacific, a war was still going on. a big and bitterly fought war with the end not yet in sight. okinawa was a bloody battleground as our tenth army was finding out. it took us 82 days of continuous fighting to take okinawa. kamikaze attacks on our navy took a heavy toll, but we fought back, never letting up. >> all the military might of the united states would now be concentrated on the japanese homeland. a tough job lay ahead. a job that would take man and equipment. our entire military strength was now aimed at the one remaining axis partner. our military planners estimated that in an all-out assault on japan itself, our invasion forces would probably suffer a million and a half casualties. but a new and terrifying force had come into the world which was to prevent those million and a half casualties, the atomic bomb. two of these awesome weapons dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki brought japan to her knees. on the second

mussolini did come to terms with the church, which none of the liberal parliamentary governments before able to Ãbhe signed what was called concorde. in 1929 than the church recognized the fascist regime and they were given significant control over education. there is a connection but in a way that was more using the organized church as a political ally. what we are getting today among illiberal nationalist leaders is a great deal more aware religion and populism merge as a key bit of support. you get that, for example, in poland where the nationalist and liberal party in power, his dependency on the church and his alliance with them and his constituency of believers is what keeps them in power. one could look to modi in india who lives explicitly a government of hindu nationalism. putin and his relationship to the russian orthodox church is something similar ...... and they are most solid fit. just as an aside, i don't think that the religious right is a factor in the violence or -- the darkest parts of the demonstrations in either anti- lockdown or floyd. here's why it seems that this

i feel very strongly that he is mussolini, putin is hitler. i believe very strongly, the idea about this, the peaceful transfer of power. i believe that he plans to install himself in some kind of emergency way to continue to hold on to office. nazi analogies, fascist analogies. what you heard is delusional, but it's the current favorite hoax of the radical left. the same cast of democratic extremists, the same lying mob in the media that brought you the failed russia conspiracy theory hoax and the failed ukraine hoax. they now want you to believe that donald trump is going to refuse to leave office and become a dictator. fake news cnn april ryan even openly fantasizing about the president getting pulled out of the oval office by armed forces. take a look. >> there's going to be a split screen on january 20th, 2021. if joe biden is going to be the 46th president of the united states, you will have him being inaugurated and watching police and armed forces trying to pull donald trump out of the white house. i cannot wait for that split screen.

when hitler and mussolini set their war machines against the united states roosevelt's concerns were proven justified and his need to respond was obvious. as the united states entered the war the situation was grim. japan had destroyed much of america emphasis west coast fleet and now controlled vast areas of the pacific. in the north atlantic german submarines continued their deadly campaign against supply ships bound for great britain. and in europe german armies had invaded the soviet union. winston searchal, the prime minister of england, america's strongest ally travelered to washington to meet with roosevelt. together they planned a strategy to combat the axis powers. it began to pay off in june 1942 as the allies slowly stopped the expansion of the axis allied powers. the battle of midway june 1942 was a major turning point. the u.s. navy destroyed four japanese aircraft carriers and ended japan's dominance in the central pacific. this was the first step in a strategy that came to be called island hopping, an island by island advance towards the japanese homeland. in europe th

, mussolini said we don't want to get involved again. he argued for a very strict neutrality act to keep the united states out of what might become a european war and so in that way, he was a leader in the fight with franklin lett -- franklin roosevelt as roosevelt was trying to engineer aid for great written and people who would become our allies against hitler's -- great britain and people who would become our allies against hitler. after the war, vandenberg came forward and said things have to and in effect reversed his own position and said isolation was no longer possible for the u.s. as a global power. that we have to take responsible the on the global stage and by making that shift in the last months of world war ii, he pulled a lot of american public opinion with him and really helped enable the changes in america's right -- rise to leadership. as someone who grew up in grand rapids with an interest in politics, i have been curious about vandenberg's life. he was a vicious kid, his father had a business that nearly went 1893, sot

every generation has hitler's and mussolini. what you care about why in certain errors certain people will listen to them because they are always there but how the rise at certain times. what he argued was once you've done the us and them thing, that is absolutely done by language, then you have two weaponized it. i went from that and came up with the 1850s these four stitches of how you would go from its in my interest to create an us and them, to have that turns into first a societal view of yeah, we have enough of them and us is better than the others to religion, society come all those things. and then them, well, they probably shouldn't vote and once they can't vote, they really shouldn't have any power and pretty soon you're at it point what if the people are defined as the others are still trying to find society can you start kalinga. that's a debate that you don't always get to but it's a four stage process and the question of how do you know when you're being manipulated? and how do you stop the process? it is one that

so he has seen up close and then of course mussolini and hitler and is very significant that he puts 1984 in britain, he's not describing moscow, he said the tendency of the society will be to create a totally false story to then have a memory of which will put everything in reserve the right to change the story whenever it wants to. well that's what these people are doing, where does it start, where does it stop, for example, should the suffrage probably almost all of them believe in traditional marriage, therefore have their statutes built down because they were not adequately sensitive to what 100 years later would've worked as a gateway. the idea that washington who more than any other single person created the framework within which people can say that the rights came from god or that jefferson who actually wrote the words, these people are anything less than historically astonishing figures who advance the cause of human freedom is an absurdity, what you're dealing with is a mob, the mob has no mind, it has emotion and it does not understand is beginning to set up patterns that

i feel very strongly that he is mussolini, putin is hitler.at back then, and i believe that. i believe very strongly, this guy never had an idea about wanting to peacefully transfer power. i don't think he had plans to leave the white house. he doesn't plan to have fair and unfettered elections. i believe he plans to install himself in some kind of emergency way to continue to hold on to the office. that's why the american people had better wake up. >> now, the president drew widespread condemnation this week for pushing unfounded claims about mail-in voting. >> everyone nose mail-in ballots are a disaster. you just have to look at the -- take a look at new york city. look at new york, you're still counting your ballots, pat? they had a small race, by comparison, by comparison, tiny. it's so messed up, they have no idea there are battle missing. thousands and thousands of ballots are missing. they think they're going to send hundreds of millions of ballots all over the united states. you won't know the election results for weeks, months, maybe

like yesterday on cnn representative clyburn compared donald trump to mussolini, puzzled constitutional scholars, but in terms of his actions, not his rhetoric had the president respected the constitution or trampled on it. we are very fortunate today to have with us analysts including john yoo to discuss the constitution has fared during the trump administration. they will give brief remarks followed by moderating and then there will be plenty of time for questions from the audience comes to please feel free to enter those into the tab section. first we'll hear from john yoo. the professor of law and director of the law center and california constitution center and the public program. he is also a visiting scholar at the american enterprise institute and a visiting fellow at the hoover institution. after graduating from harvard college and before attending law school, he worked as a reporter in washington, d.c. and after graduating law school, he clerked for john on the dc circuit and for justice thomas. he's previously served as general counsel on the senate judiciary committee as a d

and the messages that people like mousseli like mousse a mussolini or hitler were offering, seemed hopeful. it was very dangerous indeed, and in the case of, you know, i think in the case of hitler, and this is where i think sometimes the individual really does matter in history, i think if hitler -- i'm sorry, this is a very long-winded answer, but if hitler had been killed in the trenches in the first world war, the nazi party would have been different. and what happened to the nazi party once it had got to power would have been different. he still didn't have to get into power. i think we should remember this in our own times. the nazi share of the popular vote was actually going down by 1932. and they never had an outright majority. he was invited into power by right-wing industrialists and people around the president hindenburg who thought they could use him. they thought he was someone who didn't know very much about anything. and there was a class thing. he was a little corporal. they were all from ancient noble families and they had all been generals. and they thought they would us

if he had seen how close it of course he had mussolini and he had hitler and it's very significant that he puts 1984 in britain. it's not describing moscow. the challenge for this society will be to create a totally false story to then have the memory hole that will put everything that doesn't fit the story and wilbur's letter for the right of the state to change the story. that's what these people are doing. where does it start and where does it stop? for example should the suffragettes probably almost all of whom believe in traditional marriage therefore have the statues pull down because they weren't adequately sensitive to what 100 years later would emerge as a -- the idea that washington more than any other single person created the framework within which people could say their rights came from god or the jefferson who wrote the words, that these people are anything less than historically astonishing figures who advance the cause of human freedom. what you are dealing with is a mob and the mob has no mind. it has a motion and it doesn't understand the patterns that are totally unac

he attacks our great president by trying to make a did don't make derogatory comment about being mussolini a text american soldiers by calling gestapo tactics. he is a dinosaur and he needs to retire yesterday. >> jason: i certainly think so. i have the greatest respect for him but those comments are just so outrageous. but larry, these comments that i hear and especially from joe biden are so patronizing. how did they strike you? >> a course they are patronizing, jason and this is the identity party to try to act like it's not the identity party. ayanna pressley's last year so we don't need brown voices who don't want to be brown voices we don't need black places that don't want to be black voices. how is that different than joe biden telling charlamagne tha god if you don't vote for him, you ain't black. these are how these guys roll. a woman once said, the republican opponent married to a white woman you have no ethnic pride. when donald trump got elected and invited people like jim brown and steve harvey to the white house, and mediocre and don lemon and kanye west flatter donald trump

he compared the president to a fascist, to mussolini, and jerry nadler says it's a myth.he violence we see with our own eyes doesn't happen. let me play that for you. to speak at this president and this attend in general, doing everything they possibly can to impose gestapo activities in local communities, and that is what i have been warning about for a long time. speak of that violence happening in portland right now? >> that is the myth that is being spread only in washington, d.c. >> important? there's videos everywhere online. fires, riots, they are throwing fireworks at federal officers. look online. it's crazy, mr. nadler. >> sean: senator, when joe biden has to take on bernie's agenda and aoc's agenda and go radical, hard left, that is a sign of weakness. i will give you another sign of weakness. when people start using nazi and fascist analogies, that it's weakness too and denying what our own eyes show us, that is just bizarre. speak of the hateful rhetoric of the democratic side, they've unleashed the crazies in the party and most of the party is really held ca

very strongly that this man has taken on a strong arm tactics and i feel very strongly that he is mussoliniin and hitler. i said that back then and i believe that. i believe very strongly this guy never had an idea about being want to peacefully transfer power. i don't think he plans to leave the white house. he doesn't plan to have fair election. i believe that he plans to install himself in some kind of emergency way to continue hold on to office and that is why the american people had better wake up. i know a little bit about history and i know how countries find their demise. it is when we trail to let democracy and the fundamentals of which is a fair unfair election and why he is trying to put a cloud over this election and floating the idea of postponing the elections. he does not -- i saw what -- within the last few hours. that is some of the worst stuff i've ever heard in my life. this is not a perfect democracy. but it's better than any other that either exists and i really feel that the fundamentals of being afraid, if are not careful, this country will be lost for our next genera

out and also, did you know he's a nazi and these are stormtroopers he is sending in and it is like mussolini a fascist. you thought, by the way, that was bad? the mob, the media keep echoing the same bizarre and unfounded claims.ikat this is all one big conspiracy theory, well, cult if you will. take a look. >> it's going to be a split screen on january 20th, 2021. if joe biden is now going to be the 46th president of the united states, you will have him being inaugurated and watching police and armed forces trying to pull donald trump out of the white house. i cannot wait for that. >> in this scenario your painting, president trump losing by a narrow margin and then refuses to leave office, what does that scenario look like? autocracies work, where leaders try to change elections or wield their power in a way to hold onto power longer. >> i think were looking atto potentially a trial run for a kind of genuine attempt through intimidation and potentially through force to try to steal this election. >> sean: okay, nazis, fascism, of course, not going to leave office. kind of like the russian

everybody is worried about hitler and mussolini. every generation in certain areas people will listen to them. so that is absolutely done by language, then you have to weaponize it. so than in the 18 fifties the four stages of how you go from it's in my interest to how that turns into a societal view. and then we probably should not vote and they really shouldn't have power. and those who are defined as the others they end up killing them. but it is a four stage process. how do you know when you are being manipulated? and it speaks and that is an important place to go. how do people know they are being manipulated? >> it's a good question. the most consistent question because i only look or even those that but students get to a point where they get confused. >> how do i know? they know what they say and when they say it to have an impact. is it adds a but in parma answers the question has to do with being aware of details surrounding context and not spend in the way you are expected to. but rather if you could step back and think to
