susan: robert kennedy was elected to the senate. ey have three years together in the senate before rober died. how did they use the time? john: there was never a doubt that robert was the senior and that teddy was better at the job. robert, john used to call him black robert because he was such a serious and sometimes mean by. he was in this place of toughness and determination and yet a gentleness had been awakened after the suffering he went through when jfk died. ted was asked to shoulder gruesome duties like dealing with the war. happy-go-lucky ted. he was burying his grief. then robert decided to challenge lyndon johnson over vietnam in 1968 and ted tells him not to do it. you can walk into the white house in 1972. robert says, no, i insist. ted says, ok, then i am with you. he does a masterful job running the primary for him. susan: 1968, robert kennedy was assassinated. how old was teddy? john: he was born in 1932 so 36. susan: we have a video i want to show of him delivering his brothers eulogy. ted kennedy: my brother not be

i've been right in the middle of it, publishing book after book by authors by like you said, robert f. kennedy jr., dr. robert malone, dr. pierre corey, many doctors who have been deplatformed and censored and canceled. >> what's so interesting, just take the case of bobby kennedy's book about tony fauci and about the corona experience that all of us watched. that was never published by anyone but you. that's why you published it. i think it did blockbuster numbers. i'm sure you made a lot of the money. i hope you did. why wouldn't cycle and schustero that? >> i think the big four publishing companies don't want to deal with the government censorship that's been happening, the censorship internally, you know, the censorship even from their own writers. so they feel pressure from every side, and buckle under it. i feel pressure. hike i said, when we spoke last, i think it's more dangerous to have a country where we don't have the right to publish whatever we want, to have people read whatever they want, to make the choices for themselves. there's so many ways that free speech and dialog is gett

i think lyndon johnson saw robert kennedy as a difficult i can't, somebody who was the beneficiary of nepotism, and that's hard to argue when you consider the condition deinfluence, the kennedy patriarch, joe kennedy very much wanted to see his son, bobby kennedy, in the attorney attorny generalship anden couraged his son to appoint him to that position. and lyndon johnson as bold-faced nepotism, and in many cases it was. robert kennedy, in kind, saw lyndon johnson as somebody who was crude and boorish, somebody who occasionally abused the power that he had, and that might be true as well. they were fundamentally different personalities. both had great strengths and some weaknesses. and i think the others were all too ready to see the weaknesses in the other. host: mark updegrove, this is marcus in new york. question, which president used the most expletives? [laughter] kind of a contest, wasn't it? guest: i would say, you know, it's interesting in delving into the kennedy presidency, peter, i was surprised at the number of expletives that were routinely used in the kennedy white hous

campaign regarding both iran and, syria, i say that all members of the kennedy administration thought the way the president did. i think robert, the attorney general and john mccain, the director of central intelligence, both actually wanted the president draw a line to deter the soviets from doing something that they were afraid he might do. but john kennedy, i don't think believed that khrushchev would ever do that. when khrushchev learned of the drawing of the red line, it was, after all, intended for him to learn about instead of backing down, he asked, actually escalates. he decides to send more tactical missiles, nuclear missiles to cuba. he also decides that the the soviets will send in to protect us ships with these strategic cargoes. they will have nuclear tipped torpedoes. so khrushchev's initial reaction to learning that the president at least is drawing a line was not to back down. he actually an opportunity at that point the first the first strategic missiles hadn't been offloaded from any ships at the time the president drew the red line but something will happen quite different. after john kennedy gives his spe

so it's brother, robert kennedy. so it's very ironic . there are there are very ironic. rs. robert was much in the shadow, i suppose, of jfk, his elder brother, for many, many years. and we have these two warring royal princes . one two warring royal princes. one is launching the second lot of his earthshot prizes, the second, harry is accepting an award alongside meghan for standing up for what is said to be structural racism within the royal family. yes. so for two very different awards and it's to stir up a lot of feelings once again yet deeply controversial that robert kennedy award for harry and meghan effectively saying going to award you for as you say, exposing the fact that the royal family is inherently racist and i will get you back on, jenny, when we talk about that, i think is going to be such an interesting day when they receive award. say, if the receive that award. say, if the royals make any statement here. we have heard other this we have heard other reports this morning, pretty shocking reports that police investigated what they're real they're calling

brought in journalists, artists, and find the bobby kennedy to reminisce and to mourn the death of robert kennedy, who may well have been elected president in 1968 had he not been murdered. the 60s, for carson, wasn't all a matter of serious consciousness racing. far from it. one of his highest rated shows, in fact the highest rated show of the 60s for carson wentz actually the wedding of an iconic figure of the 1960s known as tiny tim tiny tim was famous for his falsetto rendition of tiptoe through the tulips, and his unusual clothing style, unusual even by the standards of the 1960s. when he tied the knot, 58 million people tuned in to the special wedding show of the tonight show. now, johnny carson loved his work, he was really not all that happy when he wasn't working. carson was a perfectionist and invested a huge account of energy intro to making the show look at spontaneous and effort list as it seemed through television. he was not comfortable with the camera, even with family. as johnny carson said after the failure of his third marriage, if i had put that work into my marriage that i pu

kennedy, trained bobby kennedy -- he took robert f kennedy the attorney for john f. kennedy, he took him all over hiking. in fact they went to siberia together. marching around. douglas had big influence on it what you might call a conservation lobby, and the supreme court office became a clearing station unworried about conflict of interest. i laugh whenever i have to listen to media about clarence thomas's wife, because i know it bill douglas did in the supreme court. he used his desk as a clearinghouse for every green nonprofit. you can send him your info and he would find a way to get cbs to do a story on it or he would find a way for john oakes of the new york times to do an op ed on it. douglas was lobbied nonstop with the idea of preserving what he thought was america the beautiful, a country -- a birthright. a wilderness birthrate that should be in the bill of rights that of every american has a right to clean rivers, and clean air. that you had to have some space where you could have solitude in the modern world, that you could not do testing or have airplan

it was robert kennedy who mattered the most. and they made the pitch. he got to take the trip. you've got to convince your brother, the president ought to take a risk, a flying a plane over cuba, even though with the surface to air missiles, that plane might be shot down. it's the most incredible story of of a bullseye because it turns out that the area and if you look at the map of where flew the area that they were to take a chance at had overflying. was exactly one of the areas where the soviets put missiles. so so this story which begins about, if you will, a misuse of intelligence, this turns into one of the classic cases of the correct use of intelligence. so you see secrecy in the case of the cuban missile crisis, which mr. sorensen recalled, i think rightly was helpful to decision making in the early part of story, actually delayed the time at which john kennedy was faced with this great challenge. he might have learned earlier about the missiles in cuba had the system better, and had he not made the decision and the call made about how raw material regarding missiles i

john and robert kennedy. i think this environment we're in now is as at least as combustible as the mid 1960s. it's a miracle that no members of congress was seriously injured on january 6th. it should not require someone to die before our leaders who command a microphone, who have a voice, get together and decide we need to take the temperature down. >> he's exactly right. it should not take it. and you have sitting republican and democratic lawmakers, debbie dingle, susan collins, so many more warning someone is going to die. >> i think people, they need to be more adamant, which is a conversation that we had yesterday, adamant about violence. there shouldn't be so much what aboutism about what is happening that shouldn't be both sides. it does happen on both sides of the aisle. our politicians should not be contributing to the violence. we tend to -- you saw the pictures of the folks there assassinated in the 1960s. we tend to want to repant size history. our history has been violent since the start of the

it took the assassination of robert kennedy, he was campaigning and looking like he was headed to become president for lyndon b johnson to announce overnight. that was a really chilling moment. literally in the middle of the night called the director the secret service and said i want details on every single candidate right now. so candidates got protection >> family members as you said pray the protection of the services been expanded to so many people. karol i did not know to read this book that arthur bremmer who shot george wallace actually wanted to kill richard nixon first. and was thwarted. >> that is actually good story for the secret service. he rode in his journal that he was trying to get nixon. but it was too tricky. it was too tricky to get. he was struggling because the secret service men made it too hard for him to get a close enough shot. so good for them. kennedy's assassination really made them rebuild that agency from the ground up with rigorous training, majoring security. it's been sleeping for the past couple decades. >> is not aware to something you referred to in
