reagan: triumph of nancy reagan.xplain how. karen: the thing to understand about ronald reagan is that as affable as he was and as gifted as he was with connecting with the american public, he was at heart a loner. he didn't like many people with exception of one person. nancy reagan was the only human being in the will to whom ronald reagan was close. she was also just a fierce guardian of his image, his personal care and safety. she was fearless, i think. as a result, she was the one, truly disinterested observer of all the drama that goes on in a white house. she had one agenda, ronald reagan's well-being and success. she had better instincts about people than he did. a better nose for trouble than he did. the people in the administration who understood all of this, who recognized her power, george schultz or white house chief of staff, james baker. they really understood that she was a very important, a crucial ally to have if you were trying to get ronald reagan on board something. she always said she was never

nancy pelosi kept it there.n i interviewed newt gingrich, he told me about an old movie which involved pirates. it's hard to explain this a little bit. he said when he saw nancy pelosi, he saw a fellow pirate. by that meaning, not that they were ideologically close, but that they were both very skilled in the business of politics. he said that with some admiration. host: you referenced earlier the three year battle with steny hoyer for the leadership position. when did that come to a culmination? susan: she won the election in the fall of 2001. she was installed as a as a whip in february 2002. she's been leadership ever since. that's pretty unusual. not since sam rayburn. that stint as head of the house democrats is pretty long. no one since sam rayburn has held the leadership position for that long. she held it when they were in the minority and the majority and the minority and back in the majority again. that's a sign of her hold on this caucus. she has managed to keep a hold of it. of time and under that mu

nancy: good evening. and welcome to "washington week." i'm nancy cordes. president joe biden is dealing with the fallout of two ongoing crises in america. the covid-19 pandemic and systemic racism. the federal government brought the use of one vaccine to a sudden halt this week over safety concerns. and as the trial of derek chauvin plays out, we saw another death of a black man at the hands of a police officer. daunte wright was killed sunday just a few miles away from the spot where george floyd died last year. there is a lot to get to tonight wut but first let's cover the historic foreign policy moves by president biden this week. on wednesday he announced the end of the longest war in american history, all remaining american troops will be out of afghanistan by september 11, 2021. the 20-year anniversary of the 9-11 attacks. president biden: we went to afghanistan because of a horrific attack that happened 20 years ago. that cannot explain why we shld remain there in 2021. nancy: and afghanistan is not the only global issue confronting the president. m

it looks like -- nancy? >> no, the one thing you do see, there's one population, for christian scientists, actually, they believe it's not a hoax, but they believe it's being caused, that the fear itself is causing the illness because they understand -- and here i'll be very careful because i'm not a christian scientist, but they use the language that, right, christian science, it's christ scientist is the church's name, so the belief has to do with having the right relationship with god, which is a very studied relationship, is how one stays healthy. it's because that relationship is flawed that people aren't in the right mindset with god, that's what causes illness. so they believe that all the public health measures are actually making people worse, that the wearing of masks is causing people to be fearful which is causing them to get sick. and i have letters, for instance, between a mother and a son or things published in "the christian science monitor" and published also in local newspapers about the re

i'm not the person to answer that question at the legal runs but my understanding from talking to nancy talking to your cat shoes the letter the prosecution lawyer for the government in america and everything else is that there are the whole point of this story is there it were new grounds for having him there there were suspicions and he was taught to associate with some people who may have done some bad things but there was no evidence at all in a still to this day remains no evidence at all against guantanamo he was an innocent man who was locked up for more than 14 years and there are many many other people in one time in the same situation as in even today there are 40 people there and jurors nancy will tell you many of them have never been charged with anything at all and are caught in a kind of legal limbo still in that prison you think that the academy members of the academy looking inwards more of revolutionary african-americans than i think that of faggot you know i think look i don't know i suspect the truth is that not enough people watch the movie because i think people in

nancy, do you have more? >> though, only that again, because you are either sick or how -- do i put this? those who were really sick often you'll see that the caregivers are wearing masks, but those who the -- patients often are not. i don't know the story, like, behind that. but this is a respiratory respiratory illness but the idea of putting a mask on people who, literally if you are dying from the spanish flu, you are drowning in your own bodily fluids. so breezing is so belaboured that those people would not have generally been wearing masks is my sense, at least from looking at these photographs. that's what the photographic record seems to say. >> and jericka asks, or says, it would be lovely to have a list of all the recommended readings mentioned in this program. we will do our best to get those together. and we have several librarians who are a part of this conversation here tonight. so i'm hopeful that someone has been tracking all of the different things that we have also just kind of thrown out a

nancy. do you want to add more? i think you've nailed what's so important here. is that on the one hand they can't see the virus. they don't have the technology. so we're in a much more advantage position because we could identify the virus immediately. they did not have the technology, but they did understand germ theory and so they were operating sort of on face that these measures should help but they couldn't tell whether they were either so it was really a tough struggle. i think to get people to continue to follow these these restrictions, but it was very much the same ones closures. right not allowing public meetings. public masking quarantining of the sick educating of the public more air circulation. it's just down the line almost identical to the measures that we're taking today. it's just that we know because we have their data in fact as well as data that we've produced this time around. we know that these measures work whereas they're having to use them kind of on faith and on b

people in one time in the same situation as in even today there are 40 people there and it sure is nancy will tell you many of them have never been charged with anything at all and are caught in a kind of legal limbo still in that prison you think that the academy members of the academy looking inwards more of revolutionary african-americans then i think that it's rag that you know i think you know i don't know i suspect the truth is that not enough people watch the movie because i think people in the academy tend to be older tend to be a little sensitive and they fill out a film by going time and during the covert crisis to really want to watch that so i suspect that i know that most of the people i know who watched it remembers it can be really really enjoyed and appreciated it but i think just getting people to watch a film like this is hard which is obviously why we have journey for. but it come rushing willy all these big stars is to try and you know who people ain't and i would say see you at your audience that it is you know you think it's a movie like when time is going to be rel

nancy pelosi's speaker in name only. al biden, schumer, pelosi, they follow the squad's agenda, so it is no surprise that moments ago, joe biden echoed congresswoman ocasio-cortez, the valve for changes for america, but that is not all, biden also called on americans to protest with purpose. what did he mean here? take a look. >> the murder of george floyd launched a summary of protests we hadn't seen since the civil rights era in the '60s. protests that unified people of every race and generation, in peace and with purpose. to say enough. enough. enough of this senseless killing. >> sean: protest with a purpose, is that what happened last summer, joe? when you didn't have the courage to speak out against the violent riots that were taking place on a nightly basis, all over the country? you didn't even mention at the democratic national convention, not one time, when a police precinct was burned to the ground in minneapolis, downtown portland was on fire for weeks. seattle rioters took over several city blocks, including

and afterwards, george schultz tells nancy, you just won the cold war, nancy.ment where her husband's presidency is in its greatest peril. and i really think the heart of the book is the iran contra scandal, where nancy reagan quite literally runs the rescue effort, including shaking up the white house staff, getting don regan fired. but also convincing her husband, her very stubborn husband, that he is going to have to admit to the country and admit to himself that he has traded arms to iran in exchange for the release of u.s. hostages, something he had promised he would never do and something that was against policy. and sort of how she does that and the people she comes -- she literally sneaks people in through a semi-secret tunnel between the treasury building and the east wing to come up and make the case to her husband, the eternal optimist, you are in some serious trouble here, potentially legal trouble. and you're going to have to make an admission that you don't want to make. >> and as you write in the book, not the only time when nancy reagan saw the

that's one of the skills nancy pelosi has brought to being a legislator.in aoc. she was once a pretty disruptive young protester, she says, marching in the streets. now she is a legislator determined to get things done. i think she sees some of these younger progressives as not being realistic, as being naive how you actually get things done and the compromises you sometimes have to make to get half a loaf in her view than getting no loaf at all. >> it sounds like that generational critique that many parents might make as well. i wonder what you think. let's just listen to it. this is how speaker pelosi reacted upon the news of derek chauvin being convicted of all three charges in the murder of george floyd. >> thank you, george floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice, for being there to call out to your mom. how heartbreaking was that, the call-out for your mom, i can't breathe. but because of you and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous with justice. >> you know, i th

turning to the takeover, nancy pelosi shutdown efforts to expand the high court as republicans push to keep the count at nine justices. griff jenkins joins us with more as the president remained silent on the court packing debate. >> since 1869 the supreme court justices have presided over the highest court in the land but democrats have decided it is time to change that and add four more. >> the united states supreme court is broken. >> it will enable us to do justice and rectify the great injustice that was done in packing the courts which some people say we are packing the court, we are unpacking it. >> reporter: minutes before the house judiciary chairman available legislation speaker pelosi shot it down. >> we commit to bring that built before? >> no plans to bring it to the floor. >> reporter: she has voice support for setting the expansion, the white house position appears noncommittal on the issue. he strongly opposed as a senator calling it a bonehead idea. the controversy on the campaign trail last year. >> the president creating the bipartisan commission on the supreme court

so let's talk about nancy pelosi. so nancy pelosi, our current speaker has served in the us house since 1987. in answer two stints as speaker to house from 2007 to 2011 and then from 2019 to the president. so her reputation was for cutting deals. within her own caucus and for high levels of partisanship. and so in this respect in terms of cutting deals and high levels of partisanship. this sounds like a mixture a bit of some of the stuff that newt gingrich did in some of the stuff that is answered. and i think that'd be a pretty accurate description. but she departed from it in some significant place. so one way was that she pushed through earmark reform. so your march we're required to be disclosed three days ahead of any major vote in 2007. now in 2011 both the democratic and republican party caucuses past party rules to put a moratorium on earmarks in 2011. now after a decade and very recently as of the recording of this video earmarks come back into that in 2021 however, there are some significant limits such that

unity we felt in the wake of 911 let's ask author a psychotherapist and psychology today columnist nancy collyer who is bent of comforting counsel during the shutdown nancy for several decades i made my living in talk radio before i crossed over to the cable t.v. jungle and i've always been perplexed by the recreational anger in our society certainly we got an earful of that from donald trump and for 3 decades from the late rush limbaugh what is it about our species that finds joy in anger. wow what a great question and well just to jump on there we have been marinating. in the last 40 years in. dangar. train as. it's rather than unite since we've had a reader we've had a whole social media climate. that is and how speaking every green gets we have and. waving our mostly what we don't like about everyone else you know under anger all way and i would say. either her. or fear. and where were afraid or when we don't know how to feel compassion for a particular population we go to what is a much more primal much more available motion namely anger right we blame and when we blame we don't hav

the only one, nancy pelosi's brother.he courtroom for the entire trial. many people in baltimore remember that story. how could they forget it? they believe pelosi's brother walked free because of corrupt political influence by his political family. but nancy pelosi does not believe that. she believes those two little girls must have been lying, possibly for political reasons. the whole thing pelosi told susan page, so unfair that i thought somebody was trying to accuse him, my brother, because they were trying to besmirch my father so another campaign for an 11-year-old girl, typical. it was racist too. as pelosi points outut in the book, her father was the first italian-american to be elected mayor of the city. pelosi believes her family was victimized by ethnic discrimination. nancy pelosi telling her brother was not a rapist. he was a rosa parks of baltimore, a beautiful, lovely person. now, we can't say and we can't know the truth about what really happened. we can say nancy pelosi doesn't know the truth either. she
