and a to secretary of state lincoln. you spoke about the post sinwar period. what is the u.s.approach to ending the war while taking into account israel did not give any indicators so far to end the war and continues to attack gaza. 200,000 people are being starved and collectively killed. >> thank you for your question. regarding the efforts to end the war, the efforts continue. the efforts continue since the eighth of october. first, to prevent the war from starting, initially, and then prevent it from expanding and then contain it. in november, as you mentioned, efforts in november have gone towards releasing some hostages and prisoners. unfortunately, we have been trying as much as we can to get to an agreement to end the war. negotiations have gone through different phases. these include big challenges. every time we got closer to a solution, unfortunately there were many steps back. >> regarding my meeting with secretary lincoln and saying it was fruitful, of course, a visit to the region is important and we have been informed of the results of the talks he had in israel

. >> ally calling his excellency, the secretary of state of the u.s. mr. anthony lincoln. we meet here today, one year after the war on gaza started. the conflict has evolved to no income based in lebanon and other regions in the middle east. our meeting today was an important, meeting. the continuous efforts between the state of qatar, the u.s., and egypt and our partners in the region to reach a solution. first, to stop the war. and, to relieve the hostages and detainees. unfortunately, since the beginning of the war, we have been working against the expansion of the conflict to other areas other regions of the middle east. we see that today the war has expanded to lebanon and other areas. that is why we had a discussion on ways to stop the war in lebanon. this has taken up a large part of our meeting today. we discussed how to reach a pressing and urgent solution to end this attack on lebanon and abide by the united nations security council resolutions especially 1701. we saw, unfortunately, in the last few days, intense attacks by israel on gaza, especially in northern

lincoln is elected on november 6, 1860. seven states begin seceding from the union december 20, 1860. abraham lincoln takes office in march 18, '61. the civil war begins april 12, 1861. what was the transition period like for the incoming president? >> this period is full of all kinds of twists and turns. it is an unbelievable few months where you can't predict what's going to happen. you have a quick turn to secession by south carolina and starting in january, some of the other deep south states u have with secessio of seven over the next month and 1/2 six weeks, during that period there are questions about whether some of the upper south states are going to secede. you have tennessee, virginia, kentucky, maryland, arkansas, missouri, all of these are questions, are these states going to secede. people don't know. there are secession conventions, calls, and several of these states reject secession and this is important and of the four states that do end of seceding, north carolina, tennessee, virginia and arkansas, these states contain

before he took office, a group of southern states pulled out of the union. abraham lincoln sworn into office in march of 1861, within a few short weeks the civil war had begun. helping us to understand the election of 1860 is rachel shelden, a history professor at penn state university. she teaches about that era and is the author of this book, washington brotherhood, politics, social life, and the civil war.he she also directs the georgian and richard civilr war era centr at penn state. professor shelden, regardless of who won the election of 181860, was civil war inevitable? >> historians don't really think anything is inevitable. we believe that everything is the result of a series of contingencies where people behave and experience the moment. so it's always hard to say something is inevitable. but in general, the conflicts over slavery that had existed in the country for very long time were likely to produce some sort of conflict over slavery that would've resulted in violence. whether it was going to happen in 1861 or 1870 or 1900, that was an open question. necessari

lincoln wins decisively in that way. he gets 18 states. they're all from the north, but these are -- enough people to win the election. >> and here are the final results. f abraham lincoln 39.9% of the vote, 180 electoral votes. stephen douglas 29.5% of the vote.do 12 electoral votes. now john breckinridge southern democratic candidate got 18.1% of the vote but received 72 electoral votes, and john belle the constitutional union candidate 12.6%, 39 electoral votes. here's the map as well of the breakdown of states. any surprises when you look at that map of which state voted for which candidate? >> i think the biggest surprise probably to people at the time was the ship from california. california had voted for beau canon in 1856, and then moved to lincoln in 1860. but it's a very -- it's a very tight election. lincoln only wins california by a little more than 700 votes. and california is going to continue to be a little bit of an issue for him because it is a very divided state. lincoln also only wins illinois by about 12,000 votes. he lo

professor sheldon lincoln is elected on november 6th of 1867. states begin succeeding from the union. december 20th, 1860. abraham lincoln takes office in march of861. the civil war begins april 12th, 1861. what was a transition period like for the incoming president? yeah, this this period is actually full of all kinds of twists turns. it's an unbelievable few months where you can't really predict what is going to happen. so you do you do have a very quick turn to secession by, south ca. and then starting in january, some of the other deep south states. so you have the secession of seven deep south states over the next month and a half, six weeks. du that period. there are questions about whether some of the upper south states are going to secede. so you have tennessee, you have virginia, you have kentucky, you have maryland, you have arkansas, you have missouri. all of these are sort of question marks. north carolina, all these are question marks. are these states going to secede? and and people don't know. and there are secession conventions called.

that they want to descalate the situation, we have statements coming up on the us secretary of state lincoln saying that they divide in administration is doing everything that it can in order to deescalate and to stop the war and the suffering of the people abba. the people here in lebanon as opposed to of course what we are hearing from the the fact that the lebanese officials have been promised that there will be efforts, but as long as we hear those statements this means that it's going to be the total contrary of those words, there's going to be more destruction, more killing. the united states is going to support the israelies even more in its war on lebanon because there are this is on one side you hear those statements and on the other hand you hear statements saying that they support israel's attempt to try to crush the resistance and that would mean of course more killing of civilians uh because the israelies can not seem to not be able to inflict losses on the resistance they have not been able to touch the arsenal of the resistance and so therefore they are venting their anger and

and these are our top stories. us secretary of state, lincoln, is making this 11th trip to the middle east. since the start of israel's more with a mouse is visit comes as is realized. also fighting has proline level not. blinking will make another push to kick start negotiations to end the one concept and diffuse the spillover conflicts in lebanon or united nations bio diversity summit. it has opened in columbia with calls for urgent action and buildings and funding to protect nature. more than $200.00 current countries are taking part. the.

the document is approved by the president of the united states. lincoln is a good lawyer, a very good lawyer so he probably read the code carefully before approving it. it is distributed, as i said to every officer in the united states army. quickly, just to follow up for a moment. lieber, his earliest memory is napoleon's troops marching through berlin. at age 17 he enlists in the army to fight napoleon once again. weirdly, both he and clausewitz are fighting in waterloo. he is shot and severely wounded at the battle of waterloo and left on the field for dad, but somehow survives and ultimately is healed. he moves to the united states. by 1835 he's at the university of south carolina. he expected that he would have had a position teaching at one of the more prestigious universities, harvard, yale, columbia. that does not happen in part because he's an immigrant. he speaks with a german accent and in part because he's german and not american. they have not yet recognized the value of foreign scholars. that will come later. at the university, at south caro

this is due to be a news and these are our top stories. us secretary of state lincoln is making this 11th trip to the middle east since the start of israel's. what with a mouse is, was a, comes as israel is also fighting, has milan level not. blinking will make another push to kick start negotiations to end the war and gone. some interviews the spill over conflict and lebanon are united nations bio diversity summit has opened in columbia with calls for urgent action and billions and funding.

york on the foxconn friends couch where he suggested abraham lincoln should have cut some sort of a deal with the slave-owning confederate states. >> trump said lincoln should have settled the civil war, is happened after a ten-year-old from oklahoma asked trump who his favorite president was when he was little. trump said ronald reagan, who was president when trump was 34-years-old, not a child, but then he turned abraham lincoln so i like ronald reagan. i thought he was look, i didn't love his trade policy. i'm a very good job. i've made some great trade deals for us. lincoln was probably a great president, and although i've always said why wasn't that settled here? not my guy that it doesn't make sense. we have a civil war, have left before he got there. yeah. yeah. but you don't must say like, why wasn't that as an example, ukraine would have never happened in russia if i were president foreign president, as you know, says, he'll quickly in the ukraine war without actually saying how and recently blamed ukraine's president for russia's invasion today's remarks about settling the civil war, by the way, were not his first her

a good to see you and we'd like to hear this is sexier of state lincoln's last trip to them at least before the election. what will you be looking for a to come away with in the context of the fact the election is 2 weeks away? first what and to the blank and wants to leave the region list is this idea that negotiators are going to be sitting down again trying to see if they can hammer out a ceasefire. a way to remove the remaining captives from inside garza and try to get in much more humanitarian aid to the people living inside garza. now, there are reports that us negotiators, including the c i, a director of william burns, are heading back to do ha, 4 conversations this week. and we have not been able to independently confirm that travel. but certainly that is something that blinking had suggested during the press conference with the prime minister of color on thursday was going to be happening very soon. the older part when you consider that blinking is acting as a government official, not acting in any sort of political capacity. yes, the us presidential election is 12 days awa

let's listen to this, um, we're going to go back to the us secretary of state anthony. lincoln here in this press conference while he was in egypt and listen to what he had to say about what he called the day after in the gaza strep. the most important thing in this moment is seeing demonstration of political will to finally conclude this agreement uh and that's what we discussed. we also discussed uh in some detail what would be necessary arrangements if an agreement is... is finally reached in terms of the so-called day after uh, what happens in gaza in terms of its uh, its governance, it's security, it's reconstruction, and here as well, uh, egypt is and will be a critical partner, and i think we had uh very useful conversation about that uh today as well. all right, that was the u.s. secretary of state, anthony blincan. well, we actually have mariam sal correspondent joining us from beirot. um, mariam, welcome, uh, i want to ask you about lebanon, but i also want to ask you about uh what i believe uh, i don't know if you think of it uh is one of the core problems is do you

lincoln is a smart guy. he knows what attitudes are in the united states. people get on lincoln because his emancipation proclamation doesn't have the soaring language we know he's capable of. it doesn't have because he knows that's not what will resonate with people in the united states. what will resonate is this is going to help us defeat the rebel scum. that's why we're doing t this. that might even appeal to some democrats. 45% of the people in the united states are democrats. it's not by chance that lincoln uses different language in the -- all the, you know, compared by one historian famously to a bill of lading. but that's notot by chance. lincoln is a very smart guy. he knows exactly what he's doing. he's try to get as much support as possible for this -- personally lincoln, of course he wants to kill slavery but he's dealing with the nation that's 45% democratic and abolitionists makeup a tiny percentage of the white population of the united states. it's not a number that's growing rapidly. it's a static number. most people know that abolitionists

we also know from the us secretary state anthony lincoln, the to the us is tracking events very closely in the region and with regard to what the us and israel is preparing for. what is believed to be in what is being reported here in the united states is some sort of attack from a ron that is very similar to what occurred back in april. and that is a $300.00 missed 1000 and drones that were fired from a ron towards israel. now, what we know from that attack is that a largely, most of those were successfully intercepted by either israel or by the allies that were in support of israel, including the united states. now what we've heard from a senior white house official is that in addition to the fact that there is a warning of an imminent attack by a ron, is that there is also defensive preparations on the part of israel that is taking place. and also that the united states is a, is showing its own warning in return that any sort of direct military attack from a ron will carry by israel uh, its own sort of response in terms of severe costs and quizzes for ron. okay, when well, who's goin

in doha, qatar, secretary of state antony lincoln and the qatari prime minister announced a new attempts at negotiations for a cease-fire and hostage

most importantly, lincoln's paramount goal of reunifying the united states.is also governed by ethical and religious values that stand outside of people's political position and outside of their particular place within a military hierarchy or their exposure to military orders. so let's let me sort of move in here and start with. so the way that i'm trying to organize this talk is to talk for a few minutes about those elements that make the war truly deadly and those elements that make the war more restrained. i'm going to confusingly, i'm going to start with prisoners of war, which, as this quote suggests, is actually a place where there is restraint shown. but the very first question is, who can fight in the war? this is the question that i started thinking about in the last talk is the question of the government's response ability for putting into the field people who are legitimate combatants. and so the very first question for the lincoln administration is being forced to reckon with the fact that they are not as lincoln said, actually in a state of insur

know that 20 years later, after this, william henry seward would become the secretary of state to abraham lincoln and he would broker the sale of alaska. if you've ever heard of seward's folly. that's him. that was in the future, however. the prosecutor was john van buren, who was the son of the recent president. martin van buren. so this was a clash of the titans, and it got very big, very fast. and the there were daily transcripts of the trial, went out daily on telegraph, and they got published far and wide. the trial attracted the commentary of walt whitman, james mccune smith, horace greeley, a lot of very well-known people commented on it. now, freeman was entirely clear about why he killed he wanted back pay, and if he couldn't have it, he would have payback. but no one, the prosecution or the defense, wanted to hear freeman's challenge to the auburn system, because the auburn system was the engine behind auburn's prosperity. and by this point, the auburn system, the auburn state prison, was actually a major engine behind new york's prosperity. it was also a major player in party politics.

so in that sense, at the current strip of the 2nd us secretary of state to be lincoln, try keep, stop. this is fine because she's as garza maybe more important than this conference in, in paris. in many years they've been on c spy. and gaza is a key for the, for the weapons to, for the siding. here in the 2nd reservation is a 1st level, is a phase states that the state budget is a black hole in this country, spots owned by enormous corruption. so the question is, we have to spend this money as because we have one point, it's 1000000 refugees internally displaced, desperately. it said release in doing this should only so becky permission organizations or angels is probably too big of a task. it needs somebody to state that there's somebody pretty, nobody came to this enormous gap for known, exist the state you live now live in, and also us to send a 1000 troops to a southern border to secure as he's fine with that actually be a viable solution you reckon of the adults only this, the parents conference set that they wanna send the 200 the us to tell us to read the equipped army. that's

lincoln is a smart guy. he knows what attitudes are in the united states. people get on lincoln because his emancipation proclamation doesn't have the soaring language we know he's capable of. it doesn't have because he knows that's not what will resonate with people in the united states. what will resonate is this is going to help us defeat the rebel scum. that's why we're doing t this. that might even appeal to some democrats. 45% of the people in the united states are democrats. it's not by chance that lincoln uses different language in the -- all the, you know, compared by one historian famously to a bill of lading. but that's notot by chance. lincoln is a very smart guy. he knows exactly what he's doing. he's try to get as much support as possible for this -- personally lincoln, of course he wants to kill slavery but he's dealing with the nation that's 45% democratic and abolitionists makeup a tiny percentage of the white population of the united states. it's not a number that's growing rapidly. it's a static number. most people know that abolitionists

states. now, of course, lincoln is a good lawyer. he's a very good lawyer. so he probably read the code carefully before approving it. and it's, as i said to every in the united states army, quickly, just to follow for a moment. so, lieber is born in 1798, his earliest is napoleon's troops marching for berlin in 1806 at age eight at age 17. he enlists in the army to fight napoleon once again. and weirdly, both lieber and klausen which are fighting the battles of namur and waterloo in 1815, lieber is shot and severely wounded in war at battle of waterloo and left on the field for dead. but somehow, and ultimately is. in 1827, he moves to the united states. by 1835, he is at the university of carolina. he had expected he would have had a position teaching at one of the more prestigious universities, harvard yale, columbia. that doesn't happen in part because he's an immigrant. he speaks with a german accent and in part because he's german and not an american. so they haven't yet recognized the value of foreign scholars. that will come later and at the universit

the us sector of state and city of lincoln has arrived in israel for a week long tour of the middle east. and that reviving gauze will cease fire talks . he's expected to discuss the cease fire in gaza, aide and post. we're planning with leaders from israel. jordan, i'm cats are. lincoln's trip comes just days after the is really military killed from us leader? yes, yes. and wad the u. s. says and wars death presents an opportunity to negotiate the release of is really captives held in gaza. how much i'm june joining us from the jordanian capital on mine because the is really government was banned. alda 0 from reporting inside israel and, and the occupied westbank palmer that he signed, that the us is willing to use its leverage this time around to really get that cease fire going you know, is there any, and there's been no indication from the us that they are going to try to strong arm is real in any kind of a major way, or that their approach would be substantially different this time, compared to other visits that a blinking, it's me blinking the secretary of state has taken it is rea

breakthrough at this point, how much will that, and what we know thus far is that us secretary of state and city of lincoln has landed in israel that he was scheduled to meet with his rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu. he's also scheduled to meet later in the day with his really defense ministry you're off the lot as well as is really present, isaac heard sock and there's indications he will be speaking with other members of the is really political class in the coming hours as well. we'll have to wait and see what comes of those meetings. but at a time when tensions in this region are at an all time high expectations for any kind of a diplomatic breakthrough from this trip are really at an all time low. and one of the reasons for that is because this is the 11th trip. the blinking has taken to israel since october, 7th, and time and again, when blinking has gone to israel, the kind of pattern we see repeated is that blinking will emerge from a meeting with netanyahu and indicate that netanyahu has agreed to certain expectations put forth to him by the us and then typically the hours later nets and y

so when he first got into the state legislature went in young, just as lincoln was 23. so was teddy at 23. and he goes into the state legislature. and he's a very speaker. he's he's great about his opponents. he can yell at them and scream and finally call them names again. having some comes some connection to the echoes of today and he makes headlines and he becomes the most famous rookie legacy in new york at that time. but a while he's so annoying that he annoys even these fellow republicans, not just the democratic opponents and he's able to realize that somehow he developed a swelled head that he was not all important, that only he was not the one who could get anything done, and he was nothing done. so he finally accepts that i was making a mistake and he tones down his rhetoric. he reaches across the aisle and he finally becomes a productive. so unless and he later said the person who's never, never made a mistake has never made anything, and everybody's going to make mistakes. the real question is, can you acknowledge them? can learn from them, can you grow as a

and we note 20 yearsar later activists would become the secretary of state to abraham lincoln he wouldn'trokered the sale of alaska if you've ever heard of stewart's folly, that is him. that was in the future however afraid the prosecutor was jon was the son of the recent president martin van buren. this was a clash of the titans it got very big very fast daily transcripts of the trial daily telegraph i got published the trial attracted the commentary of walt whitman, of course in greeley entirely clear about why he killed he wanted back pay, and if he couldn't have it, he would have payback. but no one, the prosecution or the de >> the prosecution where the defense, wanted to hear the challenge to the system. because the auburn system was the engine behind auburn's prosperity and by this point of the auburn system it's a presentable was actually the major engine behind new york's prosperity and also a major player in party politics. the prison was very important to a lot of different people and nobody wanted to hear that it was wrong to make people were for co-pay. if the nobody wanted t

the military intelligence units and a naval base near the city of hateful the us sector, state and tony lincoln has arrived in israel to begin a week long tour of the middle east. he is expected to discuss the ways to a cease fire in gaza, uninsured and humanitarian access leaders from israel. jordan and cats are a ron's mission to the united nations has been us, will bear full responsibility for any roland instigating and citing and enabling act of aggression by israel against the wrong. it follows comments by the us president joe biden, that he has information about a possible is really a talk on a ron. gabriel. alexander has more from the un headquarters in new york. as me, your site, your rezani, iran's permanent representative to the united nations, sent this letter to the security council on monday, the presidency, which is held by this wish this month as well as this letter was addressed to you and secretary general antonio gutierrez, clearly you ran is troubled by comments made by us president joe biden last week in germany with us. president said that he has information on how and when

ultimately, had abraham lincoln actually made some kind of deal, it would have included keeping slavery in the united statesat deal, not only out of the moral disgust he had for slavery at that moment, according to all the scholars, but with an understanding that a country that included slavery would never be a true democracy. and we have him to thank for that. i think the fact that donald trump is willing to sell away that history, that sacrifice, it's chilling. chilling. >> i think, also, that we must deal with the fact that slavery in the united states was in the context of race. you were black. you were a slave. for donald trump to be now two weeks before the election, where he's saying blacks ought to vote for him, and black men are coming his way, to say that lincoln should have made a deal to keep you guys slaves, i think is a very telling statement. particularly to those that are saying, well, he's going to do better with black men. well, black men that he's supposed to be doing better than, and i don't know that that's true, but some polling may suggest that, ought to deal with the fact that he is

it was later renamed springfield in 1832 and became the state capital in 1839. abraham lincoln lived in the city for 24 years when he moved to the white house. what were you tempted to say? >> i wasn't going to say chicago or juliet. i thought rockford. stuart: i was thinking of rockford. a couple other states, springfield is the capital. missouri? no. no. no. "varney and company" is drawing to a close. my colleague and friend neil cavuto starts now. neil: we are waiting for donald trump in chicago to spell out a lot of things, that the economy is horrible. if you saw the bank earnings out today, it's not all that horrible. kamala harris has this big interview everyone is looking forward to with charlemagne the god going on in detroit. both candidates working in battleground states and messages that are important to them. grady trimble following it all on donald trump and what he's looking to do in chicago. >> reporter: vice president harris wants to point the economic data, when you paul voters they say they don't feel good about the economy. that is something donald trump is

i know, let's talk about to this to of the, to under the lincoln, the secretary of state has been doing of the middle east as a, as we were just talking about with zayna is not going to be in london negotiations carrying on there once the is really responds to the possibility that towards moving towards some sort of cx, 5, predominantly, i guess, for guys a may restart as well. the major allies of these rarely prime minister were fuming in the words of his rarely media reports. in fact, the minister of finance. but sentence smotts, it's said that he was very disappointed that nothing. yeah. who would be something his chief of intelligence to do or how for those stocks and that instead of talking instead of dealing with the mediators specifically, i thought of which he lashed out. he said that israel should not be giving him us any space to breathe. there were other media reports quoting on named at sources that talk about serious concern in the region. that is real now things that can separate between the effort to release the captives and between the idea of reaching a ceasefire is rea

they might get states that have not yet seceded to secede. if lincoln is seen marching around with guys in black on the capitol, i mean, that's what mussolini does generations later. but it crosses lines for lincoln. and so very quietly seems be pulling the reins on them. but doesn't ever on paper say go away. he takes their support, he takes their votes but he he seems to rein them in in a in a way that shows real courage and restraint. i think how about how he behaves in 1863 as the armies are coming north, abraham lincoln has responsibility that he never really seriously anticipated and that is being commander in chief. now, of course, the constitution stipulate that the president shall be commander, chief of the army and navy when called into actions and also the militia when called into actual service. and yet nobody had less in the way of. real practical military experience. he'd been in the militia and the illinois and back in the 1830s during the blackhawk war, but uh, in that occasion he really did nothing more than just kind of run aimlessly a

lesson from the fox host, donald trump seems to not know or not care that abraham lincoln took office after many slave states seceded to form the confederacy. because the confederate states were for slavery, unlike the union, which was not. it was also treason against the united states of america. why wasn't it settled? who could no? today the atlantic published an article titled trump is speaking like hitler, stalin, and mussolini, saying, quote, trump blurs the distention between illegal immigrants and legal immigrants, the latter including his wife, his late ex- wife, the in-laws of his running mate, and many others. he has said of immigrants, they are poisoning the blood of our country, and they are destroying the blood of our country. he has claimed that many have bad genes. he has also been more explicit. they are not humans, their animals. they are cold-blooded killers. he refers more broadly to his opponents, american citizens, some of whom are elected officials, as the enemy from within. sick people, radical left lunatics. not only do they have no rights, they should be handled by, he has said, if n
