i don't think that our current president or our previous president would do that. but roosevelt read with purpose. he would find social critics. he would read their work, and he would get to know those people. famous examples with jacob reese, the photographer and social reformer. he talked to him about the social ills of new york when he was commissioner of police in new york and then later governor of new york up. he read booker t washington's up from slavery and invited him to the white house just to get to know the person of the book was quite a sensation and he wanted to talk about america's policy towards african-americans. what he didn't realize at the time was that this was the first time a black man had been invited to dine at the white house. and that caused another sensation. roosevelt leaned in. he was proud of it, but there were people in that, and there was much more racist times who were outraged by it. so it was a really important moment, and it was based on roosevelt use of culture. and there are other examples. he read upton sinclair's the jungle,

president. the presiding officer: the republican leader. mr. mcconnell: this weekend, with parades and gatherings, solemn ceremonies and phone calls to loved ones, america will mark veterans day by expressing our gratitude to the men and women who've served our nation in the armed forces. but veterans day is much more than a once-a-year observation. it's a reminder of our daily obligation to honor their service, uphold our promises to care for them when they come home, and do everything we can to equip those defending our nation today and tomorrow for success. so, today, i'm reminded of some letters i've saved in my archives. they're letters my father sent home to my mother from his own service in patton's army in 1945. with nazi germany on the ropes, with peace within reach, my dad was already seeing firsthand the sorts of threats that would define the next half century of american history. in the parts of his letters that made it past army censor, he told us how the russians were going to be a a big problem. well, today, america faces threats

(audience applauding) jamie raskin: when donald trump talked about american carnage in his first inaugural address, it was a pivotal moment because american carnage, of course, was not a description of anything, it was really a promise on his part. when i saw the violence on january 6, i thought about the american carnage speech. he had foreshadowed the whole thing. american carnage was not what he was running against, it's what he was running for. ♪ (audience applauding) ♪ (audience applauding) reporter: we can now officially project that the democra

what we have seen in the 0bama presidency, wherejoe biden was vice president, and in this presidency,e've seen his united states continue to fund israel to the tune of $3.8 billion per year, before this extra assistance that's now being talked about, funding israel, all the while knowing that israel is massively expanding its settlement activities on the west bank. when did that settlement activity most massively expand? under the previous administration. the truth is, the united states has continued to regard israel as its key strategic ally, which it backs with vast amounts of money, whatever israeli settlers have been doing on the west bank. and that surely is the core us mistake when it comes to saying, "we've done our utmost for a two—state "solution". you haven't. so, i think the previous administration took a very sharp change in direction in terms of us israeli relations. and one of our challenges has been in terms of holding israeli governments' feet to the fire and supporting palestinian ambitions for a two—state solution, versus tolerating, even welcoming settler expansion,

by president. and, you know, i she recognizes there's been a lot of progress made and they were able to be part of that or 444 days of the carter administration and this country were consumed with the americans that were held hostage at the us embassy in iran. in our interview with mrs. carter, she spoke about those days and how challenging they were. it was awful. i look back now, i have memories of, um. just waiting for the press conference in iran to say what happened that day because we had no idea what was going. and the only way we knew what was going on was when they would come out and announce it. and so. and it was just, you know, thinking about and. we met with the families all along. um, and thinking about the people whose it was family members were there and, and what it was doing to jimmy's presidency. and. it was awful. it was awful. but, um, and i would go out. i would go out campaign and i had found out earlier that that i could get a president goes out. he's so surrounded that peop

president. the presiding officer: the senator from ohio. mr. vance: thank you, mr. president.thanks to my colleague from kansas here. this is pretty simple and it's pretty obvious. the united states senate would passed, much-needed aid to israel today, at this very moment, aid the house has already passed. it could go to the president's signature this afternoon if my democratic colleagues would stand down, but they won't. many of them here are gathered to push back against our very commonsense proposal to offer support to one of our most important allies as they face an existential threat. and it's important for us to be honest about that fact, to acknowledge that israel would be getting support from this government tomorrow if our democratic friends didn't stop it today. now why are they doing this? you will hear over the next hour or so, we'll hear a lot of slogans but very little real discussion about our policy in ukraine or our policy in israel. the democrats have decided that this must be combined into a massive hodgepodge package for it to pass the united states senate.

chinese president xi jinping. the talks including very direct exchanges on the economy and nuclear issues, agreeing to resume military-to-military communication was a crucial goal here. we are already seeing a dramatic about-face in china tonight. i mean, this is actually pretty stunning. the chinese literally overnight changing their tone, calling for warmer ties with the united states. you could see it in real time. and david culver is in san francisco where the meeting was where they're staying tonight. david, last night when we talked, your reporting on the tone in china was very different. i mean, you actually were talking about a social media post. you saw so many like this one. but it said, anyone who thinks that china/u.s. relations will become better is naive. today, though, a dramatic turnaround. tell me what you're seeing. >> reporter: so, this actually caught me off guard to the point where i had to go back and re-read some of these media headlines to make sure i understood how they were portraying it.

new president., curiosity, courage, and apparently they could both be a little stubborn. she often said the most challenging time of their marriage was when they co-authored a book. my connection with president and mrs. carter is more than professional. it was the summer of 1976 when i met had i husband, al hunt, who was then with the "wall street journal," on the plains high school athletic field, where competitive then candidate jimmy carter organized softball games between his campaign staff with a lot of help from the very fit secret service agents. and on the other side the press corps. the press always lost. al and i didn't see each other again until the spring of 1977 after nbc news moved me to washington to cover the white house. you know, if jimmy carter hadn't been elected, we would likely never have gotten married, had three children, and a grandson. so as fate and only 1,683,247 votes would have it, our lives are connected with theirs. when jimmy carter was running for president the firs

made him president. as president and i can attest to it he read 60 to 90 serious books a year biographies and get a reading contest with karl rove. he would have authors into the white house and you'd marvel about how much you read. watching will farrell's personalization of him on "saturday night live." >> recessed in the debate what is the that thing that you hate the most andndan he said readina policy book or something like that. he offer that is something he did notou like to do when he asd he did it all the time. >> he was being clever they are. he did like to read biographies and history. didn't like this is very reading the latest polls from the american enterprise institution. >> okay. on thing in your book which is interesting you read across time and the book what i like to read and ride her mysteries. why is that you think and why her mystery such a popular genre for president? >> mystery has been around forever. the mysteries are diverting. they get your mind off things that are troublesome

when president biden, then vice president biden, was in the white house.t did the united states do? nothing. why do you think where in the circumstance -- >> he wanted to do more -- >> and i'm telling you right now, it's the truth. in 2014, crimea was invaded by vladimir putin, we did nothing. and president biden, then vice president, was in the white house. i'm 54 years old. this obnoxious, discussion sting and bloodshed between israel and palestinians has been occurring, this horrible cycle, for the entire time that president biden has served in the united states senate. these are issues that have existed for decades. >> so you disagree with him on ukraine? >> i disagree with the fact that we should be keeping the same people in the same positions doing the same thing that have led to nothing but war, and affordability, despair. we've got a crisis in this country that everyone watching the snow is now israel. the people in washington do not. joe biden is a good man. but it is time to pass the torch. they're gonna lose the election. the numbers -- >> the

with former president trump.ishes his speech, no matter where he is, he looks around and is like, thank you, how am i living? this is what's happening, this guy is protecting us from nuclear war, biden will be 8:6 if he gets another term, what's the problem, what could go wrong? everything can go wrong with absolutely anyone, on any day of the week, but i think it's time to wish the president a happy birthday, happy birthday, mr. president, it's not every day that you turn 81. so you can say, that age is just a number, but that poll that was mentioned is just one of many that say biden is too old, another says president biden is too old, another says 71% of respondents say he is too old, but it would be one thing if we were talking only about numbers, we see all his oddities, we see how he shows himself, how he forgets everything, we see how he addresses people who are not even in the room, there is also about the news is that everything in the world biden gets wet in bed. indeed, an unhappy group of donors at a

long endorsed by president biden.went onto say that israel occupying gaza would be, quote, a big mistake, again reiterating a message there. looking to the nearer term and the urgency right now is the release of hostages held by hamas. these negotiations have been ongoing for weeks. the administration officials are working feverishly behind the scenes. president biden even acknowledging that this week, saying that he himself is involved multiple times a day on this issue. but, of course, he spoke to qatar yesterday. in that conversation they again talked about hostages. that was the second time the two leaders had spoken in a week, which goes to show how much pressure they are putting on this. again, unclear when there will be a breakthrough. also, against the backdrop of all of this is the domestic landscape the president is having to navigate, the politics of the moment. that includes pushback from members of his own party. just last week the president heard directly from a protester at an event who called for a cea

the job of president, your job is fundraiser, for the presidents to misread the tea leaves is shockingrd, yale, west coast schools, as well, it is shocking to me. >> carley: totally, sorry to cut you off, i just want to say, reminded of an op ed i read talking about how hamas infiltrated college campuses and it was calculated. they are say whatting is happening to palestinian is similar to what happened to george floyd. they talk about progressive messaging and know who they are messaging to. it is a calculated efforts. >> cheryl: i read part of that. ackman, it is a huge letter, he does say if this were about george floyd and you were throwing shade at him and insulting him like you are the people of israel, would you allow that to be free speech on campus? he was on campus last week, he's been there and his daughter went there and graduated in 2020, he's very involved in that. >> todd: this did not start on october 7, been going on for a while. >> todd: starting to say the quiet part out loud. david axelrod has a message for president biden, it is on the screen, we'll read it and tal

i want to start with tough poll numbers of president biden showing president trump beating him for theknow this is an issue for them and they're hoping that by this time next year and actually earlier than this time next year that voters understand that it's a binary choice. it's either going to be donald trump or joe biden or some other republican and even though they may not be specifically happy with the way the president has handled this situation that they're not going to want to hand the white house to donald trump and that means that they've got to get a lot of work done between now and then and they're aware of it. they're reaching out to these constituencies and explaining to them how the president is trying to balance the issues of these innocent palestinians along with the right for israel to defend itself and part of it is they have to get something done and we have new report with the colleague julie sorkin about finding aid for israel in the congress which is toe difficult. we've been told by congressional leaders that they believe they have to get a package done between

and while being president. we have learned about what can be described as the international bank of joe biden, a lending scheme that saw special loans to biden family members repaid with funds from chinese executives. we have learned about a hollywood attorney acting as a special benefactor by paying off at least $2 million of hunter's tax debts in order to keep it out of the press at the beginning of the 2020 campaign. when confronted with this potential campaign-finance violation, an assistant u.s. attorney refused to investigate because "she was not personally interested in pursuing it we have learned that doj officials went out of their way to remove the mention of political figure 1, a.k.a. joe biden, from search warrant spirit as ways and means chairman, there are three major aspects that fall into my jurisdiction. first, we need to get to the bottom of what exactly happened at the department of justice and the irs to impede the hunter biden investigation. did joe biden use his administration to protect h

president, i yield back. a senator: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from louisiana. mr. kennedy: thank you, mr. president. i think we're all aware, mr. president, that parts of our world are on fire. the world is on fire in ukraine and in eastern europe. the world is on fire in the middle east. i wouldn't describe the world as being on fire in the inning dough pacific -- in the indo pacific but there's certainly embers and they are smoldering. and i think it's clear to most americans, mr. president, that president xi in china, president putin in russia, and the ayatollah in iran are working together. and their objective is to have russia dominate central and eastern europe, to have the ayatollah and iran dominate the middle east. the ayatollah, of course, has funded and supported hamas. there's no cause in the world, none that can justify what hamas did to the innocent people of israel. the people of hamas are so evil, they will kill you and drink your blood out of a boot. president xi and president putin and the aya

president. i yield the floor. >> thank you, mr. president. >> mr. president, so far so for the united states is standing behind israel as it should and the fight against hamas so far. don't go wobbly on us, president biden. don't go wobbly on israel. but some people in washington seem confused as to why america backs israel. now, i'm seeing a lot of handwringing from folks who like to pretend that they are some kind of they use this word aso lot, nuance. some kind of nuance we need to apply to the hamas terrorist attacks of october 7 before we can condemn hamas and hold its supporters accountable. president obama has even suggested that somehow we are all complicit in the bloodshed. some people promoting this idea of nuance that israel got what it deserves. they don't say that, but that's what they believe. they believe they got what they deserve and the folks that believe that also apparently believe in diversity, equity, inclusion and the right to kill jews. thankfully that's not most americans. that's a lot of people here in d.c. in louisiana how

president biden and president she have been having direct straightforward conversations and president biden believes there is no replacement for leader to leader communication. this week president biden will welcome leaders from across the asian pacific for aipac at a moment where the most dynamic region in the world is looking to the u.s. as the leading economy. in san francisco you will see president biden put forward his economic vision for the region and speak about how the united states is a driver of inclusive sustainable economic growth in the asia-pacific and how the asia-pacific is critical to growth at home. he will join leaders to announce clear outcomes on a number of pillars of the indo -- you will see him host a partnership for global infrastructure with major ceos to demonstrate how we identify new ways of working with the u.s. private sector to drive high standard investment in the indo pacific in areas to unlock sustainable long-term growth. we are hosting an event with foreign ceos on how to drive historic investments here in the u.s. in critical and emerging technol

look, yes, it's two presidents, but one is a former president, all right?s the incumbent president. american presidential elections are almost always about the incumbent president. even a former president, as deeply flawed as donald trump, is the alternative that people turn to if they're upset at the incumbent president about, a, b, c, d, e, f. the economy is most of the reason why biden is having the troubles that he has. fortunately for him, the election is a year off. it takes a long time for people to absorb new economic realities and new numbers and new trends because they don't believe them at first. they don't feel them at first. give them enough time. >> you know, larry, there is, actually, some polls that voters should be paying attention to pretty soon. you're in the state where it matters. i remember when i ran the first time in 1994, the rnc told us, you guys, we should have a pretty good year. look what happened in virginia in '93. look what happened in new york city. you see time and again, these off-year elections are often very predictive.

obviously, you heard the president, we have read out the president's calls. i just don't have anything to share at this time on any additional conversations. but it is the president's priority to get home the hostages, which is why these pauses have been so important, to get humanitarian aid in to the people of gaza, but also making sure that these hostages go back to their families and friends who love them dearly and are missing them. reporter: the supply announcements today are rooted in all the issues that came up back in 2020 and 2021, when a lot of it was rooted in shipping and holiday shopping and whatnot. does the president or first lady any online shopping? [laughter] seriously, have they had any personal experience with the frustrations of american consumers across the country recently. sec. jean-pierre: i agree there has been some frustrations consumers have felt recently, which was why we took those actions. they have been beneficial. i talk about the containers, where we were two years ago where 100 containers were declined. now we are at 8. i ta

president. the presiding officer: the senator from rhode island. mr. whitehouse: first let me thank my three colleagues for joining me on the floor. the first word that keeps coming up is reverence. and i want to start with that word. because we all do share a reverence for the institution of the united states supreme court. and that's what makes it so bitter to see how badly the supreme court is failing us now and to see the paths that billionaire influence has let -- led it down. it has to correct. and if it's not going to correct itself, congress is going to have to correct it. as senator blumenthal said, the problem here is that there's no ethics process for the supreme court. there's a perfectly good code of ethics for all of the justices and for all of the federal judges, but there's no way to enforce it for the supreme court. if you have a complaint about a supreme court justice, there's nowhere to file it. there's not even an inbox. even if there was an inbox and a complaint came through there's nobody to screen out the nutty ones from the legi

i did ask president biden whether he would refer to president xi as a dictator. this was the exchange. after today, would you still refer to president xi as a dictator, a term you used earlier this year? >> look, he is. he is a dictator in the sense that he is a guy who runs a country that is a communist country that is different than ours. >> the context, of course, there was a reference to when earlier this year the president referred to him as a dictator. he said that dictators don't like to be caught off guard. this was a reference to a question about the u.s. shooting down the chinese surveillance balloon, sort of suggesting that president xi himself didn't have a full picture, didn't have all of the information about the spy balloon that was shot down. i think it's going to take a little bit of time for us to get a full, full picture of exactly how china will respond to that comment at the very end of president biden calls him a dictator. this is not going to be well received probably by some of the chinese officials. i think in the big picture, we are hear

president biden stood by calling president xi a dictator at the apec press conference. china's foreign ministry condemned this as extremely incorrect and irresponsible political manipulation. what is the administration's response or reaction to this? >> came away from san francisco with some concrete deliverables, on fentanyl, military to military communications, getting the two teams to work on artificial intelligence, particularly in the national security realm. there was a lot of very good outcomes out of this meeting between president biden and president xi and the president is looking forward, we are looking forward to managing this relationship in a more responsible way and moving things forward, looking for ways we can cooperate, but also not afraid to confront where we can. including on the tensions in the south china sea. so the president and his whole national security team is focus forward out of san francisco. >> still call him a dictator each time he sees him? >> the president made it very clear. he was asked a direct question and he gave a direct answer an

sadat died i he president carter president ford and president nixon were on the plane together to go to the funeral. and he said it was incredibly awkward and and he said but he and president ford started talking and hours went by and they didn't stop and they just continued the conversation. and from that point on, 1983 on, they did 25 events together. president carter was here. president ford was down in vienna. and it's because they respected each other and they knew that their post-presidency is we're going to want to find them. was also very much going to be their best presences. they both had fairly limited terms and so i think that that is and i joked with gleaves because when i came, i was here last summer and we hadn't met yet and, and, and a couple of my colleagues were with me and i said, well, let's run across the museum. i'd really like to see the ford museum. so i dropped my car to the front and said, if gleaves whitney is here, please let him know that ceo of the carter center is here. so i started we started making our way through and we stopped right at the election.

what the vice president said about it. listen here. >> we have seen an uptick in anti-palestinian, anti-arab, antisemitic and islamaphobic across america. this is a plan from hate, bigotry and violence. >> john: what did you think of the white house announcing the policy in the despicable rise of antisemitism? >> yeah, its disgusting what vice president harris said and disconnected. disgusting in that it fundamentally does not understand that it is jews across america being threatened in large numbers, radically disproportionate numbers, even according to their own fbi director and disconnected because it fundamentally is disconnected from the decency that i think every american demands, the religious tolerance we demand. you talk about the rise in antisemitism. what i think has happened, we have unmasked it. it was hiding in progressive institutions for the past years and what happened on october 7th now unmasked it and we are seeing it in ways we never anticipated we would see and requires a fall-out assault to put it ba
