sally hemmings is a person stranded in -- shrouded in mystery. there are only four references to her that exist. jefferson himself never wrote about her explicitly. she remains this mysterious figure. i think it is important to emphasize that she was related to jefferson's wife. she was martha jeffersons half-sister. she may have even resembled jefferson's wife. in 1784, jefferson took up a post as a trade ambassador. he was trying to forge treaties with the french and other countries so the new u.s. could survive. he wanted to have his daughters with him. he wanted to have martha and mariah, his youngest daughter. he wanted and enslaved woman or girl to accompany mariah on the long passage across the atlantic. it was the young sally hemmings who accompanied mariah to paris. sally hemmings lived with jefferson and his two daughters in paris. that may have been the beginning of their relationship or however you want to describe it. according to sally hemmings's son, she became pregnant by jefferson in paris. it was there that she extracted in impo

sally hemmings was part of an inheritance. i think it is really important to remember that slaves were property, and they could be inherited through marriage as well as being bought and sold, so when jefferson married his wife martha in 1772, she was the daughter of a very wealthy slave trader. it was through him that jefferson inherited 135 slaves, and sally hemmings was one of those slaves, so she was not born in monticello. she was actually born on the eastern shore, and she arrived here in about 1773 or 1774. sally hemmings is a person who is sort of shrouded in mystery because we know so little about her. there are actually only for references to her, descriptions of her that exist in the last 200 years. jefferson himself never wrote about her explicitly, so she remains this very mysterious figure, but i think it is really important to emphasize that she was related to jefferson's wife, her half-sister, and she may have even been assembled jefferson's wife. jefferson took up a essentially aas trade ambassador. he was tryi

it was the young sally hemmings paris.ompanied mariah to sally hemmings lived with jefferson and his two daughters in paris. that may have been the beginning of their relationship or however you want to describe it. according to sally hemmings's son, she became pregnant by jefferson in paris. it was there that she extracted in important promise, and that was if she returned to virginia and for the child, in the future all of her children would be free. this is a huge decision for her. when she was on french soil, she was considered free. if she remained in paris, she could have been a free person. of what we think transpired, she came back here, and when jefferson died, all of those children were free. and thomasngs jefferson controversy, that has been going on for over 200 years. do in thewe want to current initiative that we are embarking on is to focus on sally hemmings herself. we want to divide her from thomas jefferson and that controversy and focus on her as a person. i think in this 200 year debate, she has always been a foil for jefferson. she has never been seen in her own

meanwhile, they fire sally yates. they fire the woman who had come up from the justice department to the white house to warn them directly about their national security adviser and him lying about his ties to a foreign government and the prospect that the russians might be black mailing him. they fire her. they keep flynn. they keep him on and on and on and on. meanwhile, luckily, journalism continues on this subject. on february 8th, "washington post" asks flynn directly if he had discussed sanctions with the russian government. quote, asked in an interview if he had ever done so, he twice said "no." that's the 8th of february. then the the next day, he issues a new statement saying, when flynn said "no" yesterday, what he actually meant was more like he can't remember. might have done, might not have done. by february 10th that story blowing up in the "washington post" is getting not only serious about flynn but it's starting to get seriously weird that the white house hasn't commented on it. >> what do you make of

welcome to world business report i'm sally bundock. the programme it is interest rate decision day in india. we'll be live in mumbai. but first, our top story. a much—anticipated meeting between the leaders of the world's two largest economies. on thursday, us president donald trump will host chinese leader xijinping at his mar—a—lago resort in florida. it is the very first time they are meeting in person and trade ties are expected to top the agenda. atjust over $659 billion of goods and services in 2015 it's one of the biggest trading relationships in the world. last week mr trump tweeted that today's meeting "will be a very difficult one in that we can no longer have massive trade deficits." trump has been outspoken in his desire to put "america first" and in terms of what he might do about it during his election campaign. mr trump floated the idea of a 45% tariff on goods from china. but the big problem donald trump has is that it's heavily tilted in china's favour because the us had a deficit of $336] billion. there have been indi

this is what you say sally.u talk about the hypocrisy and the conservative media outlet keeping someone like bill o'reilly. this has not been settled. the presumption of innocence. you say fox needs to show people that they are serious about changing the culture at their network, and the best way they can do that is by firing o'reilly. why do you say that? >> the truth is what fox does know, it is accusations to the public. the truth is fox probably does in fact know the truth. so we can assume that there is a truth. and assuming that they paid out $13 million in settlements to multiple accusations. by the way, including pending, there are additional pending lawsuits. assuming that they are in fact true, or frankly, even one of them is valid, they should take action and do something. let's also be clear. at least according to one study, one in three women in this country has experienced some form of sexual harassment. and most of those women aren't like me or the folks at this table to w.h.o. have the means to g

what do you say, sally?i don't see that he has bit a border wall yet or solved the immigration problem. he did get gorsuch in, and i suppose that could be the one thing you could say he has accomplished. i don't think you can be a successful president if you have no ideology and no convictions and if you don't have a moral compass. we know that he's ethically challenged because we know that he doesn't tell the truth a lot of the time. i think that ultimately that is going to prevent him from being a good president, not just not a great president but a good president. i think that the inconsistency that he shows, particularly in the way he deals with every aspect of government has got people terrified, particularly our foreign friends and enemies. i mean the foreign leaders are all completely terrified because they don't know from one minute to the next what he's going to do and what he thinks. i have talked to a lot of the ambassadors and they all say they don't have a clue, and so what they've decided to do

now, you'll remember, sally yates was a key figure in the ouster of michael flynn as national security adviser. >> meantime, house lawmakers are continuing to examine these classified documents, those transcripts related to flynn. let's get straight to our senior congressional reporter, manu raju, on the hill. so, she will speak not once, but twice in this testimony before the intel committee and then the judiciary committee. interestingly, lindsey graham, the subcommittee that he leads, is the one in which she and former dni clapper will testify in front of. >> reporter: yeah, no question lindsey graham has been a sharp critic of vladimir putin, the russian government and that judiciary subcommittee which he chairs is leading a separate investigation into russia and russian interference, separate from the house and senate intelligence investigations. now, the house intelligence committee after weeks of turmoil did agree to bring sally yates forward in an open session. the exact date uncertain, but that's expected to happen after may 2nd. of course, this is significant, given sally yat

the former obama justice official, sally yates, warned before michael flynn, the former national security advisor may have been susceptible to black meal by the russians. you will probably see a lot more partisan bickering if that does not happen. >> congressman from connecticut, i want to ask you about chairman nunes stepping down, is your confidence restored about the house's ability to conduct an independent investigation? >> from the inside the investigation was actually proceeding pretty well. as late as yesterday or the day before, we had reached agreement on a witness list. inside we were doing pretty well. very clearly, chairman nunes ability to lead this in a way that would be perceived as impartial was badly damaged by the whole white house ex sca paid. i do think mike conway assuming

so you believe that people will be even more eager to sally yates? >> of course this is going to be an open hearing. this won't be any sort of classified information being discu discussed. so that limits what yates and clapper especially are able to discuss as it relates to not only russia's interference in the election but potential collusion between the trump campaign and russia. but both of these witnesses will have a lot to offer and i think the administration is probably less than pleased that this testimony is going to move forward. obviously they did everything they could to try to quiet sally yates when she was in place still as the acting attorney general. so i'm sure the administration is not looking forward to this testimony on either end. >> sean spicer claimed at the time that he was okay, that the white house was okay with sally yates testifying. but that was after the fact. the most interesting thing is the idea this is expanding beyond the roll. shifting gears over to europe right now, ivanka trump, daughter of the president, official

yates and james clapper about russiagate, what do you want to know from sally yates? >> i would like to know what the administration's response to her when she brought these disclosures and the potential violations of law, very, very serious information about his breaking the law to the administration. by the way, i asked that his security clearance be reviewed in a letter that i wrote back in december a long time ago and others were aware of this kinds of evidence. so we really need to know from her as well as director clapper why the administration stonewalled then, and apparently is continuing to stonewall now. >> and i think a lot of people look at this and say wait a minute, you have a guy who was fired by the defense intelligence agency, by the previous administration. he was taken out of the administration, he comes in, as you said you asked for his security clearance to be revoked and you also have paul manafort, the former security adviser, also at issue. this pattern in the administration all seems to be pointing to connections to russia, deals with russia.
