yeah there and it was like do you think richard pryor is you're using richard pryor as your mule is what you said and that was like really? you know that kind of blew me over i was like no and then a whole discussion about it. i was like it -- is so i was like, just like he's the inspiration to me. the way like virginia wolf is inspiration to me. he's a model. but it was interesting in that way but also interesting that she formulated that question that way and we had a really great discussion about that. >> i mean, one of the things that i think pryor does -- [laughter] one was most unique things he does he uses confessional and critique to, obviously, leak critique, you know, to critique a large structure but ultimately he never critiques a structure of person and animal, inanimate object inti a way he doesn't critique himself right, and so i'm interested in the way you self-critique not just self but asian americans as a whole and you talk about the importance like we've got to get in there and we have to pull out what groups we're talking about. i want to talk about fear. was it -- w

senator pryor, i guess he probably knew him first. i want to ask both of you, when did he become part of your lives? when did you first get to know him, david? >> well thank you, it's a pleasure to be here today with kathy and bob and all of you tonight to come and celebrate the life of john glenn. i first met john glenn in 1978. i was a member of the new class in 1970, bill bradley and a whole bunch of us came in in 78. i was on the train on the way over to the u.s. capital for some signing had's and the only person on the train that night -- pushcart as we call it was a john glenn. i sat by him, we talked all the way and if you ask me if one person asked me, -- i can tell you. i didn't know what this was about. nor did i know one a long-standing friendship i would be bonding at that particular moment. being, the guy i had watched on tv, you know, there's no armstrong, they're joined than, and down here somewhere, there's me. and he's coming out. and to see i didn't know what to say about me and he got on that stage and his opening l

and when you put kathy sullivan and david pryor into it, it makes you feel pretty good. i want to start off by just saying a little something here. that is, we live in the age of instant celebrities where it is -- possible to become famous for simply being famous. it is easy and times like that to blur the line between heroes and celebrities. we are here tonight to talk about our heroes. the one we are talking about also became a celebrity. but most of all he was a true american hero. some heroes become famous for doing great things. some do great things and if you even know about it. the sacrifices to make a good life or a child with special needs. a teacher who becomes a role model for young people who go on to do great things and even more importantly, have great lives. it is important to remember, and that is why i'm so happy to be here tonight, is that america came to be wet it is, because of heroes. great heroes. some we knew all about them. some few knew what they had done. but they remained heroes. the man we are talking about tonight was both a celebrity and a h

and jamie told me that he heard that i was richard pryor's son, but that i had changed my name becausereally? >> yeah. >> jimmy: did you -- you never heard that story before? >> no. i only heard it from him. >> jimmy: from him? >> i was wow, no, that's not true. >> jimmy: if you were richard pryor's son, would you have kept richard's last name? >> oh, yeah, 100%. i tried to change my name to david kimmel. >> jimmy: you did? i wasn't aware of that. >> well, you weren't supposed to be. >> jimmy: well, you know my parents are very fond of you. >>oh my god. so dude, like i've been going to -- i've been doing the road for over 25 years. >> jimmy: right. >> it must have started 15 years ago maybe. any time i go to arizona, tempe, your mom and dad -- >> jimmy: tempe. tempe. >> your mom and dad come. last time i was in phoenix, your mom and dad came, and at this point they've come so many times that they feign excitement, like i'm a real son. they go oh, look at you! okay, we love seeing you. i'm like oh. >> jimmy: they do love seeing you. yeah. >> your mom brought me a chicken dish. it's her

i did have the privilege of serving with judge pryor. we were on the commission together, and he and i both did talk quite a bit about in our public statements and in the meetings about the need for reform and how do you change the systemem after this supreme court's decision making the guidelines advisory and not, not binding anymore on judges. i would say my primary answer is because in my experience most judges really don't like to be outliers when they're sentencing, most judges really do want to do something that is consistent not only with the law but also with what similarly sichghted other defendants are gheght their district so in my view, instead of more mandatory minimum and prescriptions that bind judicial discretion if we're we can give judges more information that -- that turning to a repository of information like the sentencing commission that captures every sentence that federal judges give and then giving judges access to that information is a way of ensuring that judges are handing out their sentences that are similarl

more discretion when it comes to sentencing than pryor does?thank you for that question, senator. and first let me just say as a former member of the sentencing commission, thank you for your work. i know that the chairman that you, that senator lee, and others on this committee were very, very active in making changes to the sentencing system, partly because the commission did research and pointed out to you some of the disparities in our laws and congress has made changes that have been very beneficial to the system. i did have the privilege of serving with judge pryor. we were on the commission together. and he and i both did talk quite a bit about in our public statements and in the meetings about the need for reform and how do we change the system after the supreme court's decisionmaking -- the guidelines advisory and not binding any more on judges. i would say my primary answer is because, in my experience, most judges really don't like to be outliers when they're sentencing. most judges really do want to do something that is consistent n

the strictest curbs on public life yet to combat the coronavirus pandemic turkey's president richard pryor pair to one announcing what he calls a nationwide full lockdown no it starts this thursday and is set to last until the middle of may authorities are ramping up restrictions after curfews and weekend lock downs failed to reduce nuking soused of corona virus infections quickly enough the number of new daily coronavirus infections soared to record levels in mid april but have since fall when in the last 24 hours more than 37000 people across the country were infected with the coronavirus. we want to bring in our correspondent dorian jones he is in is stamboul good evening to you dorian let's just walk us through these new restrictions and this new walked out. well it's awaiting the full details all of these restrictions but what we understand of the moment is that all schools will now be closed including kindergartens school exams have been indefinitely postponed factories non-essential factories will also be shuttered although it's unclear what is considered non-essential and all into

well let me show you around here where we are right now we're in a popular neighborhood in downtown pryor called shapiro and just moments ago right behind me is the polling station the local library that's where people came to vote but unlike in other polling station producer in affluent neighborhoods there's been a little churn out here still doubtless fair because of the polling station here you know people are frying chicken selling beers. but at stake here is very serious issues it's the economy now in this neighborhood most of the people that live here have a relative in boston in the east coast of the united states or in poland or in portugal many of the people here depend on the financial reminiscences the money set back to the country to survive in the year of the pandemic like anywhere else has badly affected the people on this island nation maryam. tell us about. how the coronavirus pandemic has affected the economy then because obviously this is a country that relies heavily on tourism travel restrictions in place and. measures have been taken elsewhere obviously affecting peop

our seven-day averages just over 54,400 cases per day, representing 21% for mark pryor-seven day average. the seven-day average of hospital admissions is just over 5100. again, positive sign with a decrease of about 9% from the previous seven-day timeframe. the seven-date average also declined, 660 per day, a decrease of 6%. each day, more and more americans are rolling up their sleeves and getting vaccinated, and likely contributing to these very positive trends. we regularly share with you the benefits of vaccination, the efficacy in preventing infection , and a decrease in hospitalization and death. these are incredibly important, and there are so many more. i know that the quarantine and shutdowns throughout the pandemic have been exhausting. i know that we all miss the things that we used to do before the pandemic, and i know that we all want to get back to doing those things that we love, and soon. today is another day that we can take a step back towards normalcy. over the past year, we have spent a lot of time telling americans what they cannot do, what they should not do. today,

was roger atkinson pryor and he was a representative in the house of representatives? and he represented, virginia. um and he was the person in congress who came up with the phrase that we know today, which is irreconcilable conflict that that it's irreconcilable conflict that congress has with respect to the issue of slavery will never resolve it. and so he it when when lincoln was elected president, they actually had he threatened to kill lincoln and they they had the the newspapers wrote poems about him, you know. killing lincoln with the sword because he had such a bad reputation as being a person with a temper and actually threatening people with duels so they kind of made fun of them but after the election he traveled down to south carolina and in south carolina, he gave this speech that was a pivotal speech according to the new york times. it it was a speech that asked, you know, why did that that ask would south carolina please succeed from the nation because virginia is very old and she's very slow. but if you secede we will succeed as well that word of that g

we decided to be bold, take action and under leadership of ian pryor we decided to make things happen together and our first order of business is to recall 6 a 9 board members, you can probably get to the six who were involved in that secret facebook group you mentioned so the one that is targeting parents. >> we put up pictures of those 6. when you say you send emails, you called everything like that. was there a response, what do the response look like if there was any? >> we don't get much response. i am part of a larger coalition of concerned parents working since last summer to try to work with the school board to come up with a plan to open schools fully. they are constantly planning plans, constantly have other priorities, they changed the mascot, they renamed a football stadium, changed the grading policy, yet my kids are still not in school. it is extremely frustrating. we don't get much response. occasionally they will respond to people's email, several times i've gone to speak to the school board and brought them specific solutions or questions, i have asked for a follow-up

justice pryor made that point, i thought he was very articulate.leigh, it's not about this agenda and the power grab, i also see this in part as a distraction. we now have legitimate allegations of child sexual abuse inside these centers they are keeping child protective services in texas out of and the gag order on the media and the gag order of border patrol, and we have the images. if any day care center in america look like the cages that biden is putting these kids in, people would be closing them down immediately and probably be arrested for child abuse. i think in part they do this on a friday to distract from what has been a disaster now that these pictures have leaked. >> i think that's exactly right. look, sean, this infrastructure package distracting the media has something to talk about other than what's going on at the southern border when you look at the donna facility, they call them pods but they are not pods, they are cages. they are still cages today. they are still containers for illegal immigrant children are supposed to hold 32

these people were once upon a time unknowns, but they include barbra streisand george carlin richard pryor jerry seinfeld robin williams, eddie murphy ellen degeneres, chris, rock and david letterman. carson also advanced the careers of emerging comics like steve martin and woody allen and jay leno and joan rivers and then of course he provided a venue for established performers like don rickles and buddy hackett and jimmy stewart. they're really four ways to measure carson's success. first of all, of course is tenure 30 years at the head of the tonight show compared to 22 for jay leno and six so far for jimmy fallon. the tonight shows the longest running entertainment show in you the united states. it started in 1954 1954 at the dawn of television. if that's 66 years ago and even though he has long been off the air the late night format still looks a lot like the way that carson built it. in terms of audience the second measure carson had an audience of 15 million people at its peak. that is an astonishing number for his time. and for ours jimmy fallon's tonight show, which ranks third at

i think the only time it ever came together was when richard pryor did it, and it blew up. >> you knows? we're not entertaining one thought that maybe he might be the most successful crack head ever. that he's just -- like if he had been doing crack he would be even more successful. >> also, if you're smoking all that crack, are you really eating that much pasta? >> i love -- >> i haven't heard that about crack. >> i love how he came to the conclusion that no serious journalist has ever said he did anything wrong. the guy, literally, what was it, $80,000 per month, to do a job as a consultant for something he had no qualification more except who is his dad again. >> and he says he doesn't remember if he dropped off the laptop to the shop owner well, when you're sniffing parmesan cheese off the carpet maybe you don't, but guess what, we can figure it out that it was his laptop. thousands of pictures of you, your name is on the fortunately when you drop it off. i'm not surprised you don't remember hunter, but anyone with a brain cell knows indeed it was your laptop. >> and poor money man

he doesn't have any pryors, so that will certainly weigh into this. the prosecution asked for aggravating circumstances that could add time to this. as you said, the longest term would be 40 years. if he's sentenced on all three, they would likely be served concurrently, not consecutively, so it would be all at the same time for the same instance. those aggravating circumstances, like there was a young girl present. the way chauvin acted without any regard for mr. floyd, that mr. floyd was in a difficult place. his brother -- george floyd's brother reacted to what this conviction means going forward. >> african-americans, we feel like we never get justice, and we always feel it's just us. for the officers to be held accountable, that was a major step in this country. >> reporter: so that is a big theme here. people could not believe it. they expected it but could not believe it once they heard those three verdicts of guilty against mr. chauvin because they had been promised justice for so long. now it turns to the three other officers who were present

richard pryor. (applause) (upbeat music) john denver.

i think i heard recently ethan hawke, the actor, talking about the influence of richard pryor, eddy murphy, and chris rock, for instance, as being responsible for him learning about racism. but it was all done through humor. and i think i also had that experience as well. mini pearl, you know, from hee haw and the grand ol' opry, i loved to watch her, too. as a kid, i thought she was hysterical. she also kind of could from time to time push the envelope in her own little way. >> i knew mo udall and i son his know, too. but i think mo coined two jokes i never heard from anybody else. two inmates in a federal penitentiary were in the mess hall and one turned to the other and said, you know, the food was better here when you were governor. >> you alluded to this earlier, mark, but humor does change over the years. there's stuff you couldn't get away with 30 years ago, can you get away with now. >> yeah. that's why there were -- i guess there was a line you dare not cross. lincoln got some of the material from -- they took from joke books. from artemis ward was the humorist of his day. he was

so we cover right the whole -- right through the pandemic we do the greats, you know, pryor, and momshis legend and this story keeps going over and over again. and now there's new incredible comedians. so, that's what the story is >> jimmy: wayne, before i give you our outro here, i just want to tell you that you are one of my favorite comedians that i've ever seen, ever. and i'm just so honored, and lucky that i got to hang out with you and work with you. i really am a giant fan of yours, dude. >> thank you that's incredible. i love the way the audience burst into spontaneous applause when you said that that was -- that felt good [ applause ] yeah, no, no, this has been a blast. the one thing i really wish i was in studio for, jimmy, is just the very, you know, the fact that when you throw, like, the host throws to the commercial - >> jimmy: yeah >> -- and then leans over to the guest, and does like a a little intimate conversation, and the audience doesn't know. no one knows what they say i wish we could have done that, but we can't but, anyway, thanks again for having me on the sho

did have the privilege of with judge pryor. we are on the commission together and be both did talk in our public statements and dinner meetings about the need for reform. after the supreme court's decision-making guidelines advisory not binding anymore on judges. my primary answer in my experience most judges don't like to be outliers when they are sentencing of what other simile situated sit constituents are getting with more mandatory minimums and those that bind judicial discretion to give judges more information with that sentencing commission that captures every sentence that federal judges give then to give access to that information is a way that judges are handing out fair sentences that are similarly situated to other defendants. that they get the information that they need. >> . >> according to the center for american progress only 1 percent asserting circuit judges spent the majority of their career as public defenders or within a legal aid setting. in light of this fact i am very pleased we are considering to nomine

learners book yet, but i i'm excited to the book that i think about for this question is is elizabeth pryor's book color travelers, and i think that the the short answer that question. again from briar's book would be yes black folks were black activists in the us were very aware of and concerned about whether you know a black traveler to the uk for instance would be granted a passport and one of the problems is that the practice had been for a long time that black travelers abroad a special black covers to europe would be granted a passport only if they were in service to a white person who was a person of some prominence and so there's you know, the the certificate the passport which was a symbolic. statement that this person had some status connecting them to the united states government. bad passport was only granted to a person in a servile position which is, you know a problem for people who are trying to use citizenship to advance. to secure rights or to advance equality so yes, i think that. black activists were very old. so my understanding is is on that front black folks thinking ab

the endgame what bargaining collective bargaining is the endgame, i think this picks up onjustice pryor's questions as well . >> your honor, it's difficult for me to predict legislation or collective bargaining. but i would talk about antitrustendgame . in the antitrust endgame, it simply to apply the rule of reason which the ncaa have been subject to at least 37 years which all the sports leagues are subject to. >> sorry to interrupt what your position i think in the district court was that all the compensation limits are contrary to the rule of reason. >> yes and i lost that as a matter fact. they now one on that issue twice as a matter of fact under the rule of reason. facts would probably have to change further for a different result to happen. if there are new material facts in the future then we know under antitrust law the rule of reason could come out differently a future date but i have no reason to think i would win today on facts that i just lost on tyesterday . >> justice barrett. >> mister kessler, the tenor to me when i read about the district court and night circuit opinion

. >> bill: want to bring in ian pryor now the found are of fight for schools.com.american revolution was fought to secure slavery and it concludes americans never decided our children should be taught that our country is inherently evil. what about this today? >> well, this is really a problem and you are seeing it at the local level. i applaud leader mcconnell for calling this out and several republicans. really, it is not just republicans. i think you saw james carville talking about democrats woke problem. look, when james carville talks, i listen. he has the pulse of what is going on with the democrat party. and i took that as they have a serious problem here with what they're doing in the education field. for months we've had this push to get kids back in school. parents need to start asking themselves what are they going to learn when they get in school? when what kind of civics are they going to learn and history are they going to learn? how will they learn math? we have the problem in virginia where there is a debate what is appropriate math instruction? it

who are you going to believe, your lying eyes or me, richard pryor. no, our eyes told the truth. the prosecution made their case. expert witnesses came up and said he was killed because of derek chauvin. there's no objection to that. i don't think anyone objectively looking at that will deny derek chauvin murdered george floyd. >> it's now in the hands of the 12 jurors. as you know, it's like 12 wild cards. thank you, derrick, for coming in this morning. and when the jury does reach its decision, we'll have a live special report. but for now, let's go back to anthony and tonygayle. >>> we've been talking about a minnesota perspective on all of this, there's the legal perspective with rikki klieman but mr. johnson there from the naacp reminds us there's a broader context as well, gayle. in just this time this trial has been going on, 64 people have died at the hands of police. so the bigger conversation is use of force, whether all of that is justified. we're going to get into it. but we will bring people other stories. in the meantime, gayle, we will be back with you later in the

grassley: in 20 you tweeted an article by judge william pryor, who at that time was opposing a proposed plan. you said "he should heed his call." do you still oppose expanding the number of judges? ms. clarke: i understand that president biden has convened a commission to look closely at these questions. i think these are important questions that we should examine. i look forward to see the results of that commission's work. sen. grassley: i believe that the conversation you had indirectly with judge prior did not deal with the number of supreme court judges or packing the court but with lower court judges. at that time, you seem to say that we should not be expanding the number of lower court judges . do you still hold that position? ms. clarke: i would welcome more context. i'm not recalling the context in which that statement was made. i do understand that president biden has convened a commission to look broadly at the status of the federal judiciary. i look forward to seeing the results of that commission's work. sen. grassley: i have nine seconds, during the confirmation hearing y
