on this day, this date, september 25th, in 1973, the vice president of the united states, spiro agnew, wrote a really strange letter to the speaker of the house. this is the letter. as you can see it's on the vice president's letterhead, dated september 25th, 1973. it's addressed to the honorable carl albert who at that time was the democratic speaker of the house. and in this letter, vice president spiro agnew requested that the house of representatives should please impeach him. which is a weird thing to request. that is a weird thing to ask for. but the reason vice president agnew did that on this date 46 years ago was because he thought if congress took up impeachment proceedings against him, he could probably survive that because, yeah, the house was democratically controlled and, yeah, agnew had been caught doing pretty bad stuff but a two-thirds vote in the senate to remove him, he thought for sure he could survive that. because as big as the scandal he was increasingly wrapped up in, the vice president at the time figured he still had enough support among the diehard republica

and spiro agnew was the most combative, blustery, in your face republican of his time. way more confrontational, way more of a chest pounder than richard nixon ever was. but even as he denounced the investigation against him and he denounced the justice department and he denounced the prosecutors who were leading this witch hunt against him, he was terrified of criminal prosecution because he knew that would be the end for him. and indeed it was. he was right. and it is still amazing to look back on this day in 1973 and see him begging for impeachment as a preferable alternative to what he knew would be his other fate if the justice department went through with charges against him. it makes you realize the power and the importance of a justice department that is independent, right, and an attorney general, right, who is known to be independent. who is known and from whom it is expected that he will prosecute law breaking no matter who the suspected criminal was or what his public office is. i mean attorney general elliott richardson had been appointed by richard nixon.

we know he did some work at spiro but most of it i think was done at fawley or lower fawley.en i first started working in the wyoming room i discovered this book and there was a lot of big horn history, and from the big horn and the big horn historical society. i do the newsletter. i was looking for something different. i found the blog book called "the log, fawley ranch" dated summer 1928. it's sort of a diary of what original photographs and the donnelly family they published disease. they were a publisher from chicago and they would publish these for the guests and here you have the guest role in the front of the book how long they stayed and on the very first page of found ernest hemingway. i realize this was an original help photo of hemingway that we did not know who the woman was. it took me a while doing the research and that's how we found out this was later to become bill horn's row until mike y. is the book that started it all. the reason i started this book being a manager of the wyoming room we were having so many researchers come in wanting to constantly look at

[applause] spiro agnew notwithstanding -- [applause] >> why do you think he did better in the primary, even i thought he did. several reasons. one, it was higher than we thought it would be. strict come along order boat, to a large degree. two, all the people who joe duffy did our job. we got the vote out. >> -- family name, duffy. this could be the last weekend they enjoyed for the next six years. think about it. joe duffy for united states senate. >> you all set? >> what did he call the last one? >> that is the copy. >> i don't see a lot in the pictorial. or something if we -- [sirens] >> connecticut has good state and local police department. >> his running mate stresses law and order. >> has governor, i will make our eets, parks, and businesses -- >> he started the campaign by suggesting the basic differences were i was working outside the system, and he has chosen to work inside the system, stresses his experience as a for select first electmen in greenwich. he has suggested i am somehow responsible, and those involved in meat, in the protest against the war in vietnam, for the c

i have no sympathy with politicians like senator dodd and others in the state who anticipated spiro agnewsuggesting to the people of connecticut that if you put all of the young people with long hair in jail, you will solve the problems that bother most of us. you will still have pollution, the war in vietnam, the crime would still increase in cities, you would still have the inflation that accompanies the war. >> he has been my idol for years. >> my idol. >> is the democratic party going to be responsive to the people? in the past it has always been that an uncommitted delegation has been sent to hartford. where some omnipresent force upstairs tells the delegates what to do and who to vote for. >> we tried in this campaign to do the one thing and that is to build an organization. to supplement and help serve the already existing democratic organization. >> they would still like to push donahue, he is noncontroversial. that is the great thing. i have been attacked all over the state. as a communist. a number of rumors have been started about my background. we are in that stage of the game

to her california this is a result as you say it's not technically damaging it's a bit of flooding spiros flooding there's no wind damage the thing was already losing a certain amount of force even then now one's called lorain are. probably too early to use because they no longer really can't justify the time and mario's also a little less than a tropical moisture is a lot of rain and they have joined the system is already in place so will be more rain particularly for mexico but these joins up with the annual system southwest monsoon yes there is one in the u.s. as well which produces the flood flooding rains the flash floods if you like in places like canyon county now we're not quite there yet but we have got this cloud crossing the border into texas and new mexico and that's the forecast as you see for sunday but clearly the tail is further inland and the rather more familiar sight we see quite often actually is the active weather across the plains moving eastwards in a slow declining frontal system but that is the less active weather not in. well thank you very much still to come her

billion that the biden family took out of china, that guy was negotiating for us, it will be bigger than spiroew. john: you went there to investigate alleged ukrainian interference. >> i -- i -- >> when did it morph to an investigation of joe biden and hunter biden. when it is appropriate? >> you characterize it. john: that is the way it appears. >> no, it does not. that is how pro-biden media lines it up. someone said, this i this is in. -- between you and your client. because biden had the guy fired. his statement on record, laze press could go read it. there are 3 videotapes on record. available on here nobody has covered for 5 months, this town protects joe biden. family has been taking money from his public was on the for years, 1.5 billion from china, our vice president, is supposed to be impartially, and independently negotiating for us. and the kid he takes him on air force 2 to china. john: in 2013. >> the kid unfortunately is a drug addict, china did not give 1.5 billion to his kid biden's kid, a recovering drug addict, carries stepson -- kerry's stepson and "whitey" bulger's nephew,

this makes spiro agnuw look like an angel.mall 46 time criminal. >> sean: thank you for being with us. join ns now, the author of "the new york times" number one best seller, 16 straight weeks on the list. i call him the great one host of life, liberty. by the way, he will have peter spicer for a full hour on the show. your take. >> my take is the biden family is corrupt. my take is that joe biden obstructed justice. you want to find obstruction. there it was. my take is that he blackmailed that government to get that prosecutorer removed. and not just to protect his son but to protect his future run for president of the united states. and you have a massive democrat scandal here. that's why the media are conducting themselves the way they are. that's why the democrats are trying to turn this inside out. they want to attack trump, but it won't work. you see, trump came into office a very, very rich man, and he'll leave office a very, very rich man.k. joe biden came into office a very poor man. he left office a very rich man..

people likethy with senator dodd and others in this state who anticipated spiro agnew by suggesting to the people of connecticut that if you put all the young people with long hair in jail and revolutionaries in jail, you will solve the problem. pollution in have the war in vietnam. crime would still increase in the city still have inflation that accompanies the war. [crowd noise] --is the democratic's democratic party going to be responsive? >> in the past, it has been. delegation was sent to hartford-- i'm the present force upstairs. tell them to delegate what to do and who to vote for. >> we tried and this campaign to do the one thing that is essential to win the election and that is to build an organization that would help serve the already existing democratic organization. bailey wouldund still like to push donahue. is not controversial. -- he is not controversial. i have been attacked all over the state as a communist. a number of rumors have been , soted about my background we are in that stage. >> i think bailey has committed himself to the governorship. i don't think he cares

the newspaper and then you basically read the evening newspaper and i read that the vice president spiro agnew had been convicted of taking $100,000 in bribes and his penalty was $10,000. i was just infuriated because i had been raised with this idea of equal justice. i thought this is equal justice if you are an ordinary person who steals a loaf of bread you may be imprisoned for five years but if you take $100,000 we get to keep 90% of the proceeds? what kind of an equal justice is that if they published my letter. i guess you could say that it was my first political act. our institutions are in big trouble. the packing of courts is destroying the integrity of the courts, the stolen seat of the supreme court. the oval office is being destroyed by the incumbent but it's not just institutions, is t is the principles at risk and that equal justice and all of those four words are carved into the solid just over the doors of the supreme court. that is a powerful idea and if you asked me months ago, i would have said my opinion will wait for tha the report, see what it says. when it came out

biden family took out of china while that guy was negotiating for us, this will be a lot bigger than spirothey have fallen into a trap. >> john: 's we went over there to investigate alleged ukrainian interference in the 2016 election? when did this morph into an investigation of joe biden and hunter biden and is it appropriate for you as a representative of the president to be going to ukraine in finding dirt on joe biden and/or his son to use politically in 2020? >> rudy: that's the way you characterize it. >> john: that's the way to paris to want to burden >> rudy: no it doesn't. >> john: whatever one thing and found out something else and that's we've been digging -- >> rudy: this began with someone coming to me saying this information can clear your client about the corruption in ukraine between the ukraine, the democratic party, the ambassador and the fbi agent who investigated -- >> john: but then it morphs into biden. >> rudy: inextricably combined because biden had the guy fired. by the way, his statement is on record. lazy press could go read it. it don't have to listen to me. eco

on this day, this date, september 25th, in 1973 the vice president of the united states, spiro agnew,y strange letter to the speaker of the house. this is the letter. as you can see it's on the vice president's letterhead, dated september 25th, 1973. it's addressed to the honorable carl albert who at that time was the democratic speaker of the house. and in this letter, vice president speiro agnew requeste

newspaper and then blue collar communities you read the evening newspaper, and i read that vice president spiroew had been convicted of bribery, take $100,000 in bribes and his penalty waltz $10,000. and i was just enfewerrated because i'd been raided this idea of equal justice, and i'm like, this is equal justice? if you're an ordinary person who steals a loaf of bread you've may be in prison for five years but if you take $100,000 and you're rich and powerful you get a to keep 90% of the proceeds. what kind of equal justice is that? and they published my letter. and so i guess you could say my first political act. our institutions are in big, big trouble. the senate is in huge trouble with the routine use of a super majority. the super majority can he steroid the continental congress and is destroying the u.s. senate. the packing of the courts is is dehsieh destroying the integrity of the court. a stolen seat on at the supreme court. oval office is -- incumbent destroying the reputation of the united states around the world. it's not just institutions it is principles at risk and that princip

biden family took out of china while that guy was negotiating for us, this will be a lot bigger than spirofallenning into a trap. john: so you went over there to investigate alleged ukrainian interference -- >> [inaudible] john: all right. so when did this morph into an investigation of joe biden and hunter biden, and is protofor you as a -- appropriate for you to be going to ukraine and find dirt on joe biden and his son to use in 2020? >> that's the way you characterize it. john: that's the way it appears to line up. >> no. it doesn't. [inaudible conversations] this began by someone coming to me saying this information can clear your client about the corruption in ukraine between the ukraine, the democratic party, the ambassador, and the fbi agent who -- [inaudible] >> inextricably combined. because biden had the guy fired. by the way, his statement's on record. the lazy press could go read it. they don't have to listen to me. there are three videotapes of prosecutors available on here that nobody has covered for five months because this town protects joe biden. his family has been takin

but in that case, there were also crimes committed by the vice president of the united states, and spiro agnew wound up resigning his office as well. mike pence took the meeting rather than donald trump. went to poland instead of donald trump. he's been intimately involved in everything that donald trump has done, and if not involved, he has i think a lot of people would say have been quite sycophantic towards donald trump and praised him no matter what he has done. would, in your view, vice president mike pence be equally culpable in whatever donald trump has done? and so if that is impeachable, what would you say about mike pence? should he remain in his office? >> yeah. i think that's a fair question. and i think we need to make sure that there is a deliberate investigation to bring forward all of the facts, make sure that members of congress are operating with the truth, and that that is shared with the american people. but your question also poses another one, this is, those around donald trump, do you want to go down with this ship? there is no limit on the number of people who can

this will be bigger than spiro agnew. >> bill: tom dupree thinks the timing is askew.'s testimony as we know, the democrats had high hopes for it. didn't materialize. it's possible either the president felt he is in the clear but also possible that whoever the whistle-blower is felt well now we have to move on to the next thing. >> bill: the reason why that's important is that mueller testified on one day, apparently this phone call happened the next. go ahead, governor. >> i don't know anything about the sequence and timing. i think you can make a case in any direction on any sequence you want. i think the interesting thing here is, though, that there is some concern -- if i were the white house, i would try and release as much of çthe transcript of the conversation as possible. but i do understand the problem with that is that you will then create a situation where foreign leaders will not speak frankly on the telephone with the president for fear that the intelligence community and the u.s. can't be trusted to keep secrets. >> bill: it's an important point. 2020 qu

it makes spiro agnew look like small-time baltimore crook., because he is a democrat, he is a member of the protected species, oh, it is just joe. it is just joe. i think he was relying on that. i think they had become sloppy. you can bust up, you can bust up servers and get rid of 33,000 emails and smash up cell phones and take $1.5 billion from china and "the washington post" will say, oh, trump, trump said something wrong in a conversation with someone. oh, my god, that's a crime. or donald, jr., must be investigated. can you imagine if donald trump, jr. got, for any reason, got $1.5 billion from china? >> rudy, without a doubt you are making case of the bidens and double standard, let's talk about the president a little bit. >> sure. steve: regarding this, apparently somebody at fox news has gotten word from a senior administration official, we don't know who that is, that in the transcript there are a few words that will raise eyebrows. you've seen it. you were read this. what is that area going to be? >> first of all i can't imagine if
