here in south carolina. as we anticipate this is going to be an ongoing operation as they have to get to every house that has a tree on and make sure people are ok. be able to provide stabilization to structures that may be unstable. and those sorts of situations. fortunately there wasn't as much of a need for swift water in this storm as we anticipated. the wind damage was very, very impactful and so that's been widespread across especially the upstate. but we've got all of those teams now positioned, stood up and they're operating in the upstate. >> one final point. you see all these different entities, public and private, you see how closely we all work together. but it's for that reason, that's the great thing, we call it team south carolina. but in order to allow, to facilitate the ease of working together, to eliminate any sort of log jams or technicalities, that's why i issued that executive order, emergency declaration on wednesday. for this very thing. and i want to thank all of these people for wor

the south carolina association.the association was a organization of slaveholders who made it their mission as their announcement in a local newspaper put it, to aid the execution of the founded upon the local and peculiar policy of south. the association had been formed in response to events in june of 1822, when residents of charleston were reeling from the news of an alleged conspiracy among the city's enslaved population led by a freedman named denmark veazey. the members of the association included many of the leading members of charleston's planter elite, including general thomas pinckney, mariah henrietta pinckney's uncle. thus, it was the association's who appeared in johnson's courtroom, not the state, to argue on behalf of the south carolina police bill johnson in. his opinion held that the south carolina statute unconstitutionally interfered with the federal government's rights, as he put it, to regulate interstate and foreign commerce. the constitutional issues, johnson said, involved the police bill vio

the broad outline of south carolina. this story, post-civil war post-reconstruction and i think the way i would describe it is perfect storm. perfect storm. now you're, not looking at any images of storms, you're looking at images of really beautiful yellow pine and really beautiful old growth cypress. but the perfect was this there, of course, was lots of old growth, hardwood and yellow pine in the south. but prior to the end of reconstruct action, both because of technological limitations and the way labor was deployed, this was not the highest priority of the folks who owned the land on which the timber grew. but at the same time that there was sort of a rediscovery of all of this timber in the upper midwest and new england managed to get themselves clear cut by lumber men who weren't particularly concerned with permanence. right. so then those folks were very interested in what the south had to offer. lumberman from those places, hungry for new timber and land in south carolina, like other places in the south, was al

all in all these circumstances never materialized in south carolina, georgia. but lee's experiences in 1861. in 1862, in south carolina bore disproportionately the overall determination of confederate strategy. in 1862, because broadly speaking robert e lee himself, the term and much of confederate strategy in 1862 as principal military advisor to jefferson davis, lee provided recommendations to the chief executive of and when setting forth his strategy he we really only had to please davis the confederate states war department. the confederate secretary of war possessed influence in directing confederate strategy by leaving matters in the hands. the president and his top military adviser, the first confederate secretary war, leroy pope walker approved ineffective and resigned in. september 1861. under political pressure. next came judah p benjamin, the attorney general who stepped into the position as an acting secretary of war, but only as a temporary measure. a permanent appointee could be settled upon. benjamin in a way keep his job decided. it was best to

what happened in south carolina? >> boston was very strange. it was the only city that had a big fight over the tea that it couldn't resolve. all the other places, the tea ships went, they found a resolution of some sort of, and deterrence between local customs officials, governor, the tea merchants, such to receive it and the sons of liberty and the patriot organizations. in south carolina, the tea ship arrived, the sons of liberty campaigned against it, they had a huge meeting in the exchange which was this large building that housed the customs house facilities on the ground floor and above was the main meeting hall. it served the same biblical purpose, and they resolve they were deftly not going to let the tea in and while all the firebrands and politicians were yakking away upstairs in the great hall of the exchange south carolina merchants unloaded duty to british tea off of the ships so not the company's tea but other private parcels paid the duty at the customs house underneath while the politicians were talking upstairs, put them in ca

i approved requests of governors from florida, north carolina, south carolina, tennessee, georgia, virginia, and alabama for an emergency declaratio. r i approved additional requests for the governors of north carolina, florida, south carolina, and disaster declaration to pay for removal and provide financial assistance directly to survivors. fema and small business administration are there to help the residents was homes and businesses were literally destroyed, washed away, or blown away. the federal search and rescue teams have been working with state and local officials in partners in treacherous conditions to find those missing. they will not rest until everyone is accounted for. i want to thank all of our first responders and everyone working around-the-clock. one of the brave teams who volunteered to be there from san diego county fire department set to travel all the way from california to north carolina to help but on their way they were in a terrible car accident in louisiana. we pray for their full recovery but it was a bad accident. we know there is more to do and we will continu

but it seems like south carolina senator lindsey graham wants to change that.e wants the red state of nebraska to become winner take all. and if he gets what he wants, then donald trump would have an edge, an edge that would come too late for the state of maine to do anything about. for the state of maine, for example, to change the way it allocates its electoral votes and make that winner take all. why is it too late? it is too late because yesterday was not just any random wednesday. yesterday was 90 days until december 17th, which is the day that all of maine's electors cast their electoral votes. that is when maine's electoral college votes is actually locked in. and in maine a bill only becomes a law 90 days after its passed unless the bill gets a two thirds vote in both chambers and democrats in the state don't have the votes to do that. so they have to abide by this deadline, 90 days. so if mainers want to make any changes to their electoral vote allocation, they have to do so by yesterday, which is 90 days until december 17th, the day they certify those

the further up you go into south carolina, north carolina, georgia, the more problems you have., are starting to reopen in florida, but what reopens there gets shut down and maybe for a while in south carolina, north carolina. not all of them, but flight delays and cancellations are still rampant though not as rampant as yesterday. we're down to a few hundred more today on top of the thousands yesterday. and we should also report that fedex now has suspended or limited service in five of those southern states. too dangerous to deliver packages. and then who do you deliver them to, especially in florida where a good many of the homes were outright destroyed. let's get the nateest from -- latest from lawrence well,er with the ca june navy. you can see behind him one of the direct hits of this storm, just the impossible work he has ahead of him. lawrence, how are things looking there today in. >> good morning, neil, thanks for having me. new york noel thank you. >> we're getting recovered here. if you know, as you said earlier, this storm was so huge, this area i'm in from previous

what was a republican senator from south carolina doing in nebraska yesterday?the senate to speak with the nebraska state legislature about how their state allocates its electoral college votes? well, to understand you have to zoom out a little bit. almost every state in the country uses a winner takes all system to distribute its electoral votes. if you in california you get all of california's electoral votes. if you in texas, you get all of texas's electoral votes. the exceptions are the state of maine and nebraska. they split their electoral votes. for example, in 2020 donald trump one most of nebraska, but joe biden still walked away with one electoral vote from the state and joe biden one most of maine, but donald trump still got one of that states electoral votes. cut to 2024 and the selection is so close, it is so close that those single electoral votes could be the margin that decides the whole race. >> if she were to hold those three states, wisconsin, michigan and pennsylvania, there you go. exactly 270 electoral votes. this would require her by the w

statistically in south carolina we have had an increase in reporting. that is because of the robust programs we built in the department of correction the juvenile justice putting out more information, posters, phones, different reporting methods for incarcerated persons to contact some from the outside or contact somebody on the inside to do something about allegation such of abuse of sexual harassment. we in south carolina have a very supportive governor and a very supportive executive leadership team. the director of the sacrament department of corrections is an advocate of sending incarcerated persons back into the community better than we receive them that includes those who get injured mentally, physically or emotionally while inside of corrections. he supports the efforts we have tried to do in the department of corrections to have a zero tolerance policy and attack every single allegation with everything we have two ensure we send the citizens of south carolina back into the community whole. cooks in your opinion and underreporting problem? >> ye

led by south carolina. but also became commonplace throughout the throughout the south was the pro-slavery movement because the north was moving more and more radically against slavery, the south managed to persuade itself, pro-slavery writers, that slavery was best of all things, not just for the planters, but for the enslaved. so you have this, this, this, this massive split happening which led to you know, with lincoln's election that led that was the final so south carolina secedes from the union when buchanan as president, buchanan doesn't really do much about it. lincoln is is elected president in november. take office till march right he says in his inaugural address. i'm not going to do anything to effect slavery where it already exists because it's protected by the constitution. so why did people in the south and the south carolina particularly not not take him at his word, he said i'm not going to get rid of slavery where it already exists. it's protected by the constitution. why didn't they belie

some say it does the university of south carolina says that they cannot cancel an event billed as a roast of kamala harris. organizers include a founder of the proud boys advertisements for the event are vile. the naacp says that they're worried about potential violence. i'll speak with one liter who is pleading with the school to shut yes. down plus advocates for reparations say they feel betrayed over a vote that did not happen in california. one of the authors of the legislation is here to respond and later, who is the alberta in your life according to director lee daniels glenn closest character in the deliverance is a part of the fabric of the black community. and that's not even the most viral thing coming from this movie. we're going to talk about it a lot coming up sounds riveting. >> have a great show, right? >> thanks so much. let's do it well first of all, we are three days out from the harris trump debate. it's really hard to predict what's going to happen tomorrow, much less on tuesday but we will see something we have never seen before a black woman on the presidential debat

south carolina, we had a caller from south carolina, and you can see south carolina. all of the votes typically for a long time, all of the electoral votes go to the republicans. if you look at a county map of south carolina, there are a lot of counties that go for the democratic candidate. if you look at the precinct map, and i realize it is a little hard to read, but that is because it shows so much political diversity. that is what i think americans want. we want a system that reflects our political diversity and we can know we are properly represented and have a real voice. host: our next caller is ryan from honolulu on the independent line. good morning, ryan. caller: aloha, hello. thank you for holding this discussion. like most americans and more voters, i am still confused by the electoral college. my simplest explanation for the electoral college is that the popular vote informs the electors how to vote. my question to you to is -- i hope you find this question a bit fun. if you told for the last time explain the electoral college, what would your answer be?

for example, in south carolina. voter turnout at the state level was a mathematically impossible 101%, meaning that more people voted than there were eligible voters. for example, in one south carolina county, the county vote level total was 2000 more votes than the entire adult male population of the county. many voters likely were voting more than once, and it was largely white southerners. and so there was a clear sense that there was fraud. and both sides claimed fraud. republicans said that black voters were prevented from voting, that white southern democrats had voted more than once or crossed state lines. democrats claim that republicans controlled the canvasing boards and were manipulating the totals or throwing out democratic votes that were legitimate. a lot of this sounds very familiar to some of the things we saw in 2020 or during the bush-gore election of 2000. so as this played out at the state level, the details kind of varied in each state. it gets extremely complicated. so without getting too far i
