roger: let's talk about that. president trump earlier today tweeted out, i'm going to quote this by memory, because it's not hard -- "i won the election." exclamation point. i think i got it right. what's your response? gov. hogan: well, look, when president trump was first elected, i was at a governors' association meeting on a stage like this. somebody asked, "what advice do you have for president trump?" "stop tweeting." four years later, i would give him the same advice. look, we need to make sure every single vote is counted. there's certainly a process for challenging any irregularities. but so far, there hasn't been any evidence or they have not won cases. over the weekend, the president said something about joe biden winning, and then he retracted it, and now he's saying he won. it loses credibility with -- more and more republicans are coming out saying, we're in the middle of twin crises. covid-19 is spreading across the country. people are dying. our economy is collapsing. and the president is tweeting

then edith norris rogers. then ruth pratt, who was elected in her own right, not with any kind of familial election, she represented the silk stocking district in new york city. and then on the far side here is ruth hannah mccormick of illinois. her father was marcus hannah who was the republican kingmaker in the early part of the 20th century. and constantly butted heads with william jennings brian, which is interesting because william jennings brian, his daughter ruth brian owen is on this side of the picture. we have a press account when these two ruths were sworn into the house in 1929 that they came down the center aisle together arm in arm and wowed the members in the press because here are two daughters of avowed political enemies. if we go back into the picture just to finish out, this is mary norton of new jersey. and then this woman here is another one of the interesting characters in this time period, florence kahn of california who represented a large portion of san francisco. and she's another wid

rogers is going to be on the ballot. and the expectation was that the wife would serve out this term and then she would retire and the party leaders would find a suitable male candidate to succeed her, but rogers had different ideas. she actually ends up staying in the house for 35 years. she is still the longest serving woman in the house and she was for a long are very long time the longest woman serving in congress and she was surpassed by barbara mckull ski who has house service and senate service, but she not only had longevity. she was very influential in terms of veterans affairs. prior to her experience in the house she had volunteered for the red cross and she'd become an advocate for servicemen returning from world war i and when republicans in the 1940s briefly regained the majority in the 80th congress, she becomes one of the very first women to chair a major congressional commit. she chairs the veterans affairs committee in the 80th congress and then again in the 83rd congress when control flip-flopped back

this wonderful picture of edith nourse rogers. rogers was a widow from northern massachusetts. she succeeded her husband john rogers who was a high ranking member of the foreign affairs committee. the ranking republican. she actually had a lot of experience helping him with administering the committee and administration his personal office. so she knew what his legislative agenda was. she kind of knew the rhythm's and the contours of here on capitol hill when a senior member passes away like that, the house has to have a special election. no one can be appointed to the house. and depending on state laws, that election has to happen in a fairly short amount of time. so what would happen is local party leaders would often turn to the widow and say, will you run for the partial term because you have name recognition? rogers is going to be on the ballot. the expectation was that the wife would serve out this term and then she would retire and the party leaders would find a suitable male candidate to succeed her. well, rogers had different ideas. she actually ends up staying in the

rogers on her own record of achievements. inside it's says knows the ropes, keeps prompt and efficient service. she talks a lot about what she's done for veterans. she's not above saying she still mrs. john jacob rogers. this is the primary season in september. so she's very much, she's very wise in the ways of doing this. a little later, after she's been reelected a few times, she often is photographed doing things that will be visually interesting. also, very much related to the issues important to her. she and the members of congress here are testing out a really weird riding lawnmower looking tank. that's right outside the capital. she often would do that. she also was photographed -- she was called the most air minded female a member of congress. she often would fly back and forth to places in open airplanes. she said she found them break convenient and she enjoyed it. so there are photographs of her with aviator goggles and cap, headed off into the sky. she did some wonderful things. as matt has said, she was very much

senator roger jepson. roger jepson passed away last friday at age 91 at clarissa c. cook hospice house in quad an iowa native,n american patriot, roger devoted his life and service to his family, faith, and community. he spent his youth on his family farm near cedar falls about five miles from whe i was born and grew up, and i still reside within four miles of the farmhouse i was born in. regardless of that close proximity o us as young people, i didn't become acqinted with roger until he represented scott county in the iowa legislature i wish i would have known him earlier when we were neighbors, as children. for 14 years, roger served our tun in the united states army. he was a parrooper in the 82nd airborne division, and then he later served in the army reserves. roger worked for 20 years in the life insurance business and was a member of the national association of life underwriters. along the way, roger answered civic leadership.c service and for more than two decades, he climbed the ranks of elected officials in service to his community and the state of iowa. h

james, why was william rogers chosen as secretary of state and with what consequences. >> nixon and rogers had a previous relations. they knew each other as lawyers and they both worked under the -- in the eisenhower administration. nixon's main idea behind appointing rogers, he did not have any foreign policy experience which nixon saw as a great plus. because it meant that rogers would not enforce the will of the state department and that foreign policy would largely be controlled by the national security council. nixon intended that policy direction would remain within the white house. so the consequences were that kissinger sets this appointment enhanced the state department and the press and sort of backfired on nixon because rogers would not offend nixon's policies but cater to the attitudes of congress and within the press. oftentimes, he supported policies that contradicted nixon's stances. there was a power struggle that department and the white house, not -- very little cooperation. nixon would exclude rogers from negotiations. he had a lot of negotiations that went to the white

he did not keep rogers in the loop. kissinger's secret trip to china , rogers did not know about it until kissinger was already on the way. which was interesting. they would say different things before and after. they were each other. kissinger says the soviet union was even able to foresee that, they were not on the same page. prof. allitt: that's right. exactly. at one point kissinger says ideally, the secretary of state should be someone with whom the president is very close. if they are not the right kind of personal relationship it is mutually supported. can you read this passage on page 31? this is where as he gets into more details about his relationship inside the government, he admits that they -- that he let his own vanity get the better of him. sometimes he exploited nixon's weakness in his own interest. look at the middle of page 31 where it says the relationship was bound to deteriorate. >> the relationship was found to -- bound to deteriorate. had both of us been wiser we would've understood that we would'

i think i would argue no. >> roger, finally, what do you think this means for tiktok? remember when we used to talk about tiktok all the time and the president was saying he was going to ban it or force it to sell neither of those things happened and now we haven't been talking about it on the congressional side clearly not a blue wave at this point. the presidential picture is still cloudy what do you think that means >> john, it's a great question, because when i look at the tiktok thing, it was clearly a political pawn maybe now that the election is gone, that issue will go off the table entirely because nobody cares anymore. it was a tool designed to rile up a group of voters in fact, i think when we do the nalt analysis of this election, we will see the problem we faced was not election day disinformation so much as it was the massive amount of disinformation that preceded the election, that you essentially had whole races that were taking place outside the fact-based world and i think when that analysis is done, we're going to look back on this and just slap our

obviously clemency to roger stone but is he considering a full grant to roger stone?nder when you talk to other people and think about karl rove, this was the kickoff, not at the exact timeline to what would later become the charge of russian interference in talking to a lot of higher-ups in the trump administration that became the basis of the mueller report and the investigation and the hearing. the president's argument a lot of the legal representatives, there was nothing to that. nothing about incoming administration, an official who would be talking to foreign players, and the logan act but others out of power would have been doing the same thing and charged with the same thing. so this was sort of the zeal on the part with flynn by extension the trump white house and really for the remaining years. is it your sense that this is some closure on that or not? >> well, i think certainly for president trump and l clearly for michael flynn, this is quite a bit of closure. for michael flynn, this puts to rest -- he was still challenging a lot of things in court. for hi

he's already commuted the sentence of roger stone. we hear he's talking about rick gates and paul manafort and george papadopoulos. how do you disentangle the idea that the president is considering pardons, like all presidents, on their way out of office do, for people who are tied up in a conspiracy that the president, himself, wants you to believe doesn't exist? >> we need to absolutely reject the idea that any of these pardons are legitimate. trump may be able to issue them, and frankly, they may never be tested, because let's say that he were to pardon himself, that would only be tested in court if he was subsequently indicted down the road and offered the pardon as a barrier to prosecution. so, we don't know whether we'll get there or not. but these pardons have no smack of legitimacy to them. this is a president putting himself above the law. and to go back to your opening point, ali, about whether or not the constitution permits a president to pardon himself, the founding fathers deliberately rejected the notion that we should

none other than major roger anderson. now you have the pupil and teacher on opposite sides, what will turn out to be the first battlefield of the civil war. now, sumter is going to continue to sit there as a symbol of the impasse that's happened in the country at that time. there was a woman, mary chestnut, who has a wonderful civil war diary, in charleston at this time. mary chestnut writes, "in april 1861, there stands fort sumter." there was this constant fear that eventually war would bring out and trusted harbor would be the scene of it. basically, what's happening is nobody's sure what's going to happen once president lincoln becomes president. that happens in 1 1861. how is he going to handle a situation differently than buchanan? there are numerous political attempts to avert war. there's a peace convention in washington, d.c. there's numerous compromises to push off war. a peace delegation from the confederate states. all these are rejected. lincoln's going to reject acknowledging the confederate states of americ

hi, you must be roger. hi. iam. let's get to it. well, 0k.and teams from all over the country and further afield come to compete in a celebration of music and dance. it's a big high—profile event, so my team are taking a real risk by letting a total novice join their ranks. 0k. you go around the circle. round the circle? 0k. with only an hour to go before the start of the parade, troop leader roger walks me through my role. i'd rather be hiding somewhere at the back, but he's got me leading the whole team. look at the dragon. swing. swing this way. yes. oh, so like an eight. yes. like an eight, 0k. the idea is that the dragon follows the ball and stick that i'm holding. if only i knew where i was meant to be heading. she yells and laughs oh, my god! miraculously, the other performers follow my somewhat frantic lead. let's just hope they'll be this accommodating when we do it for real. further downtown, the crowds are building, and so are my nerves. i hope no—one laughs at me. in the first section of the parade, a dozen or so local high school

roger, can you give us a sense of the stale, how much of australia's east coast is currently affected by this heat wave? well, predominately it's part of most, most parts of new south wales. continuing to rage across the state. although cooler winds are brought temporary relief to much of the much ado that was today. although for the, the meter only physical cause to return to the heat wave conditions for more today has been much more. there were 24 degrees compared with 40 degrees over the weekend, and those are easing of conditions that allow the firefighters to take control of the many blazes. scattered across the wells are about 50 at the moment book. many of these are in fairly remote areas, so there are no immediate threat to human life or to property. the fire chief sun saying there is no time to be complacent, say 90 percent of new south wales is still susceptible to fire. the spokesman saying the politics weekend was an omen, a sign to the weeks and the months ahead as a firefighters are on the case already. do you think they're better prepared in this there than what we saw
