during the first years of the nixon administration thanks to nixon's vision and courage and bob's leadership and drive they made historic strides. the nixon administration in a special effort to achieve so much. they increase the federal budget for civil rights programs from 75 million at 600 million from 1969 through 1972. passing the emergency school aid act with one.5 million to end segregation to help children who were racially isolated. they initiated action with the defense department for discrimination against black and military personnel and allocated $12 million that disproportionately affected black children and the increase from black owned businesses more than 900 percent of 13,000,142,000,000 these are the accomplishments changing the way americans live today. bob had the rare distinction as the white house staff member to be saluted by the president of the united states. at a dinner held at the washington hilton benefiting a number of charities making a surprise visit nixon told the guests about his special assistant robert j brown he said he is a quiet kind of man but the most

could you comment a little bit about the d segregation of schools in 1969 under the nixon administration. that was a very delicate time. were all working together on this thing. they were ordering that what was supposed to take place in 1954 something like this. all of these years later. it was like the supreme court have not said anything. got it together in the president name to the committee. and there were several others on that. you are on the committee. it was my responsibility to make sure that there were not to be any trouble. we went around the country personally. he knew a lot of these things. we are neck and a stand for any trouble. we are going to put it out. and then we got each one of those. we brought all of those people to the white house. when i can have no stuff. all the sudden in september when all of the schools are opening up we do not had one incident throughout the south. we do not had one incident. that was the kind of president that richard nixon was. you don't believe him at your own peril. he's in a find out what he did to take care of these. >> we have a quest

and things could have been much worse in the nixon administration but there were good government republicans, mr. president. i can't do that. >> when we come back, nixon, trump and the silent majority. >> but the silent majority is back and we're going to take the country back. i was tired of having my calls dropped. it's very frustrating. and i was having these issues, and my friend said, "well, maybe you should switch over to verizon." and then i'd heard that i could get apple music if i switched over, and i said, "boom!"

we have nicole hemmer with us, a presidential historian who specializes in the nixon administration. isn't abandoning trump like it did nixon, that is the beginning of the end for him, a clear end for him was republicans abandon him. you say that is the big reason why trump won't meet the same fate as nixon. >> right. the parallels between trump and nixon are surprising and a little on the nose. but the difference here, having a congress that, especially republicans in congress, that just don't show any signs of wiggling when it comes to president trump. it seems pretty likely that they're going to stand behind him and that president trump has a conservative media organization working for him. those are things nixon would have loved to have had. >> well, and exactly, because there was no fox news, there was no similar conservative media during nixon's term. how big of a role is that sympathetic media playing in the trump's ability to avoid what happened to nixon. >> it is important because when nixon was calling watergate a witch hunt, that was reported but it wasn't repeated credulou

during the nixon administration, it was the executive branch. it was the irs using the white house for political purposes, it wasn't congress trying to do oversight. alex? >> before we let you scoot away for a bit, is there any sense, hans, on how the white house is preparing for the release of the mueller report? there are those who are expecting to drop just a couple days from now, tuesday at the earliest, right? >> reporter: we don't exactly know the precise date but the white house is bracing for it. they're prepared to have teams read over it as well as outside legal counsel. rudy giuliani made a comment the last couple days and he said, look, i can almost do a speed read. we're going to have cherry picking on this. the white house will say there is no collusion, they feel pretty confident about that, and the attorney general didn't go forward with an obstruction charge. now, will there be damaging things in that report? could there be something that casts the president in an unflattering light? potentially. but what i expect the white hous

there was one year in the nixon administration where they decided to use a lot more real eggs and a few got misplaced shall we say for it while and that was the last time he did that. >> why did president hayes and his family decide they wanted to take over this tradition? >> the president was out on his daily walk and some schoolchildren covered him and said we have no place to roll our eggs now. he said that is odd. why don't you just come back with me and you can roll eggs on the white house grounds? a couple hundred children did that first year in 1878. >> as times go by, you tell this story. who did the illustrations? >> john hutton. >> what were you trying to achieve? >> what we were trying to do is have a book that was both educational and fun. and accessible to a wide variety of readers as we could. we'd like to be a book that children can read. also especially for younger children, that hopefully the parents will read to the children. but it will be interesting for the parents, too. >> one of your specialties is actually garden history and landscape history. and you write in th

and great changes occurred in the nixon administration particularly in the second administration. they passed the congressional budget empowerment act because they wanted their own organized intelligence how to put the budget together rather than depending on omb which was in the hands of the executive. they passed campaign-finance reform, war powers act, all of these were revelations that the 2 branches were not on the same page. from 1921, when you could say we could eat the sandwich, all the administrations in between, congress never wanted to participate in control of the budget, and next was going to use the budget to undermine the connection between congress and the administration. as republicans in congress, and but not in a constitutional way. what they understood was institutional way they had made their accomplishment republicans and democrats with the administrative state. next was a threat to them and so it wasn't partisan in the sense that nixon could count on a party in congress to uphold his view of what the constitution was. it was not easy to see what the role of

ago and having won a close one this year, i can say this, winning's a lot more fun. >> the nixon administration this one is the game destiny has played with richard nixon. eight years ago he was defeated for president of the united states. something few politicians recover from. six years ago he was defeated for the governorship of california and quit politics, something no politician has ever recovered from, and he's back today the winner to be sworn in as the 37th president of the

the nixon administration justified the proposal as a means to protect sensitive information that would not ordinarily be made part of the record. in hindsight, of course, we know that president nixon had ulterior motives. in any event, cox had a job to do. that job required him to evaluate the full record for himself. he refused the president's offer. president nixon ordered him fired the next day. the dynamics of the stennis compromises should sound familiar to us. the trump administration has an idea. they want to redact the mueller report before they provide it to congress. the department of justice says the proposal is a means to protect sensitive information that would not ordinarily be made part of the record, but we have reason to suspect this administration's motives. the mueller report probably isn't the "total exoneration" the president claims it to be. in any event, the committee has a job to do. the constitution charges congress with holding the president accountable for alleged official misconduct. we have to see for ourselves, not the attorney general's summary, not the s

the primary mission of the drug war as stated by the nixon administration is to create a drug free society. that's what it's all about that's why we spend the billions of dollars and incarcerate millions of people. is to create a drug free society. we've been asked this now for good not hard for forty years trillions of dollars into it no wind in sight really within a reasonable person says how much closer are we to creating a drug free society you begin to realize that perhaps we've been given a mission here that is impossible to achieve we saw violent crimes go through the roof as these. criminal gangster organizations fought one another so we're seeing that type of phenomenon today in our major metropolitan areas like los angeles the crips against the bloods and of course there are endless violence that we're seeing in mexico and in places like south america as these very rich powerful cartels fight one another it lines up perfectly with alcohol prohibition when you look at oklahoma prevision the richest man in the country was ok he controlled if you tried to get in his market he would

in late 1973, the nixon administration had an idea. when special counsel archibald cox asked the white house to turn over recordings of conversations held in the oval office president nixon offered instead , to provide the tapes to senator john stennis of mississippi. nixon propose that stennis, famously hard of hearing, would listen to the recordings himself and provide summaries of the tapes to the special prosecutor. the nixon administration justify the proposal as a means to protect sensitive information that would not ordinarily be made part of the record. in hindsight, of course, we know that president nixon had ulterior motives. had a job to cox do. that job required him to evaluate the full record for himself. offer.se the president's president nixon ordered him fire the next day. the dynamics of the stennis compromises should sound familiar to us. the trump administration has an idea. they want to redact the mueller report before they provide it to congress. the department of justice says the proposal is a means to protect sens

there's clear precedent under the nixon administration. it's not true at all.he only clear side is that both sides have to give of it and so certainly there's no moving forward in terms of the lawsuit over the reaction other than that legislators should be during their jobs. >> you ordered a book, how america is on the shores. what is going on, you want them, you can have them. we've got all of them, as you say in full freak out mode. is it legal for him to do this? i can't imagine why not. didn't bush and obama sent a bunch of somali refugees to minnesota? if they decide where to send people? >> under that program, state department and collusion, redistributes all of these refugees to cities that don't get a vote about it. there's no say. the fact is people forget and i reported on this, breaking news story five years ago but the obama administration was shipping illegal aliens from the border to the interior of the country to air force bases. oklahoma, ventura county, california and obama ask permission. very fun to imagine all those places, if you think abou

nixon. that example that sets the example for the administration. they know what they are expected to do and won't be punished for lying. that is a betrayal of the trust the american people place in the president and the administration. it's a shame mueller didn't take greater efforts to get trump under oath. the only way to get the truth is to put them under oath and trump hasn't gone under oath. >> certainly you have the president talking about turning the tables. the quote he said in a tweet. essentially talking about looking like he's talking about retribution against the perceived enemies. >> i agree with jim. that there's a threat a day from trump. and he follows through with one out of ten. you never know what it will be. he says a lot of unusual. >> depends which staff will carry out. >> that's true. we learned from this report he is very conflict adverse and tells other people to do it. if they don't carry it out it won't get done. >> what democrats do next. whether it's seeking the full unredacted report. grand jury material and pursuing i
