her husband, herbert hoover had heard a lecture from the same professor and decided to go to stanford university. lou decided to go get a second degree, and was the first woman to enter stanford in the geology department. the two met at stanford, and found they were both from iowa, and both loved to be outdoors as much as possible, and hit it off and became boyfriend and girlfriend. after lou graduated, burt asked her to marry him. they got married at her parent'' house in monterey. there is a little anecdote from a letter her mother wrote about this young lad who was marrying her daughter. "we have made up our minds not to not like -- minds do not like him very well, because he would take our lou far away, but after he had been here a few days, i think we all liked him just about as much as lou did." they were married on february 10, 1899. the ceremony started at noon, and was only attended by her sister, and parents, and herbert's brother, theodore. at 2:00, they had to take the train to san francisco, where they spent their wedding night, and the next morning literally got on a slow boat to c

this book is foundational to that effort in my second career here at the institution and at stanford universitye: you talk in battlegrounds about being on the other end of what you call russia's firehose of falsehood. what did you learn about what they are up to? mr. mcmaster: i think it is important to understand that russia has engaged in a sustained campaign of political subversion against us, and they do employ this approach of disruption, disrupting the effectiveness of our government. that was part of the attack on #firemcmas so-called ter campaign. it is to gum up the functioning of our government, particularly in the area of policy and national security. the broad effort is to disrupt us and use disinformation to shake our confidence in who we are as a people, to polarize our society, pit us against each other. in to shake our confidence democratic principles and institutions and processes. what i write about in the book is this president denies the most brazen efforts. it is important to counter this pernicious effort to bring us down. russia knows it cannot compete with us. putin know

you've been out of the government now and also out of since -- stanford university has an incredible amount of senior staff and specialist working on these topics. how have you started to recognize the problem that we face in the nsc about how do we put the domestic and foreign battlefield together? mr. mcmaster: they have to be completely integrated. it's not only this challenge to our security, but it's many other challenges. they don't obviously respect borders, and the move rapidly. an overseas challenge is one we have to cope with domestically. once these threats penetrate our counter themve to at extraordinary -- at high cost. terrorism, we have to remain engaged abroad and understand better the threats that will affect us at home. i think there's some organizational implications for this as well. i think one of the organizational impediments is the bifurcation of the national security council between it and the homeland security council. i don't think that makes any sense. i think the senior director is there, the weight is structured, ought to be some self synchronization tha

it is so associated with stanford university. know the work of john cho been an john taylor in monetary economics. when we use the word organization, or organizational in our economics, what do we mean? michael: you're looking at ways to functionalized society in a way that enables prediction. that's what people are looking for. what they have done in economics in terms of auctions is create a system that maximizes values for customers and maximizes revenue for whoever is doing the auction. that was the case in the fcc auction, that raised a lot of money for the united states. francine: we had a wonderful opinion piece by tyler cohen yesterday, saying nobel prizes are attracting less suspense. they're less watched and less in status. is there any truth to that? michael: i don't know. they year, they criticize nobel prize of economics because it was included by nobel. it was honoring the field of economics in 1969. it's not a real nobel. the point that tyler is making is that we have had so many famous people, like paul samuelson

attended university of chicago school of medicine, former chief of neuro radiology at stanford university medical center. as i said before, on paper his credentials may sing, but anti-science blathering blows. he is a conservative media darling, going on the president's favorite cable news channel to say things the president likes to hear, touting herd immunity as solution to the virus from early days of the pandemic to as recently as last week. >> you can allow a lot of people to infected, those who are not at risk to die or have serious hospital requiring illness. we should be fine with letting them infected, generating immunity on their own, and the more i am unmmunity in the comm the better we can eradicate the threat of the virus, including the threat to people who are vulnerable. that's what herd immunity is. >> problem is, you can't do that without killing people. remember, herd i mmunity is nota health strategy. letting it rip through the population is mass murder, according to william hazelteen. that might be why he doesn't want to be caught outright pushing herd i am unmmunity.

this book is foundational to that effort with my crew at the hoover institution at stanford universityal mcmaster you talk in "battleground" you were told along with your staff what did you learn from that about what they are up to? >> is important to understand russia's engaged in a sustained campaign of clinical subversion against us and they do employ this approach of disruption disrupting the effectiveness of our government that was part of theth attack on the so-called #fire mcmaster campaign and they attacked our national security center staff are you particular mary of foreign-policy and national security but also the broad effort is to disrupt us and use disinformation to shake our confidence in who we are so people to polarize our society and >> us against each other in particular to shake our confidence in our democratic principles institutions and processes. what i write about in the book is the truth that denies the most brazen efforts so it's important for us to counter this pernicious effort to bring us down. russia can't compete with us and put knows he can't compete wit

doctors professor of medicine at stanford university, one of the authors of the declaration. you very much for coming on. if you summarize your position, i think the great barrington declaration has been characterized by partisan struggle so i would like to hear you describe what it is. >> i think the key idea of the declaration is there is a 1,000 fold difference in the risk of mortality for people who are older for him covid-19 is actually a deadly disease. 95% survived but still 5% die. over 70. whereas for younger people, it's much less deadly. for instance, for children there have been many more flu deaths this year than covid-19 deaths. as you say, very, very high survival rates for people who are younger. when you combine that with the fact that the lockdowns have been absolutely deadly. deadly in the united states. as you say, for instance, the cdc found that 1 of 4 adults have seriously considered suicide, and astronomically high number. putting kids out of school is bad for kids' health, and of course for their education as well. people have skipped cancer appointme
