the executive statehouse is a portion of the statehouse that faces state street and includes the governor's office and all the various offices related to the offices of government. if you are walking by today, you would notice there are many windows that have been boarded up. there are lots of work crews, as barriers, all in preparation for the restoration of the executive statehouse, which is set to begin sometime this summer. i always feel the new jersey state capitol is a working building. it is not as monumental as some of the other state capitals are. but as soon as you enter the building, you get a sense that this is a working building. as i mentioned, i finish you walk in, off of a major thoroughfare, you are greeted by the lieutenant government's office. as you enter the building, you get this sense of change. 16different architects over major construction projects. you can see how eclectic the building is just as our state is eclectic. for staff travel to trenton, new jersey to learn about its rich history. learn more about trenton and other stops on our tour at c-span.org/citiesto

the mystery statehouse about to pique a lot more interest. it will be made into a film with helen mirren. >> this house is a manifestation of sarah winchester and i think in that sense, it's haunted. >> reporter: sarah was convinced she was haunted by the souls of those killed by the firearms that made her family rich. she constantly constructed and reconstructed the house's 160 rooms for 38 years supposedly to throw off the "spirits" and give herself places to hide. on our tour we saw a doorknob suddenly shaking. >> sarah, is that you? [ laughter ] >> reporter: nope. just a construction worker because parts of the home are still under renovation. so guests coming through this area will have to wear what they call bump caps because it's so low, easy to hit your head. >> whoo! yeah!

our statehouse and state senate did a great survey, and it is much more accurate. let's work with the fcc and get these maps in shape. the second thing is we need to define what is going to be the acceptable speed. what are we trying to do? up? wn, three 25 down, three up? what do you need to be your target? as we set that framework in place, then you are ready to move to the grants and the going into broadband expansion. the infrastructure bill will give us another opportunity. expand ask how you best those dollars, and it may be partnerships with public entities, your local and state governments, and then they pull down money, leverage those dollars to pull down some federal dollars, and suddenly, you are getting a three to 1, 3 to 1, 4 to 1, 5 to 1 benefit. some of those entities may want to go out and do public-private partnerships and look at ways to utilize broadband. it is important, too, to note that what we will do is technology neutral because different things will work for different areas. bee places, it will wireline, fiber, wireless and other lot -- in

had my friends lived they will be taking home pulitzer prizes and serving in congress and statehouses and they would be mayors. many are great artists, poets, screenwriters, filmmakers and i was so distressed by the reality they are disappearing. i wanted them to be remembered and wanted them to try to break through the statistics. statistics can numb your mind. i wanted to reveal something of the humanity behind these statistics. so the quilt with all of these individually created tributes to these people who passed away, i think was a big part of changing the hearts and mind of the american people. in the u.s. there is probably about 85,000 people. that still represents a tiny fraction of the total number of people killed by this disese. the overwhelming majority of people that died of aids were not gay men. they were heterosexual men and women and their children. >> when was the last time it was displayed in its entirety or near entirety? >> last display of the entire quilt was in 1996 when it covered the entire national mall. if you viewers -- >> the board made the decision they w

of the calls as described. 6:34, keeping an eye on the maryland governor's race, a bid for the statehouse expected to be announced tomorrow. the event is scheduled for tomorrow. he's a progressive democrat and has said multiple times that he's considered running for governor and served as a surrogate for bernie sanders during the 2016 presidential campaign. autria: it has been a deadly climbing season on mount everest. but an incredible a compliment for one climber. sam? within 10 people have died on mount everest this year alone, but we have -- more than 10 people have died on mount everest this year alone, but we have incredible news from a local man. he posted this video on facebook. he was inattentive when a major windstorm came. his guide came into the tent and said -- we have to evacuate. let your belongings go, this mission is over. they descended a get -- a bit, but got the op several thousand more dollars to make it to the top. he said he hadn't slept in four days, hadn't eaten, wasn't stable, but his guide said you were ok, no oxygen issues, let's go. they made it to the top and

that nearly led to blows on the statehouse floor.h both sides accusing each other of making threats. watch. >> he walked back and told us i called ice. and we both said what? and he said after them. >> you say things to incite people and that's exactly what i did. >> respect and decorum and ruled the day in texas and we didn't disrespect each other. >> harris: there were no reports of any arrests. >> guy: respect and decorum could involve not putting your hands on a legislator. apparently, according to republicans in question, he said we are going to get you on your way to your car at which point republicans said if you come after me that way, i have a gun. there was a back story to this. one more quick point, i'm a moderate and very open on immigration issues. i think it's complicated and not a decorum type person. we have people holding signs and a skate capital saying i'm a legal and a lawmaker says i'm going to call the people whose job it is, that bothers me. that doesn't sit well with me. >> harris: it speaks to the comparabili

at the statehouse in boston, they've cracked down on physicians legally writing prescriptions for legalds claiming that most of the problem is physicians overprescribing vicodin's or percocets and that's just not the case. maybe it used to be the case, but no longer. >> tucker: people are totally paralyzed in positions of power by the fear that they're going to be: sensitive. they'd rather see their people die than be called insensitive. these numbers are just from the city of boston. using the commonwealth of massachusetts, which has a very big and robust government, would be also collecting stats like these paired are they publicly available in the state? >> no. the state of massachusetts, we have a republican governor, charlie baker who is running for reelection. he's been urged by law enforcement in massachusetts to try to crack down at the driver's license level. if the problem is, if they get the drivers licenses and it's all laid out in this report from the bpb, if they get the drivers licenses, they use a phony birth certificate were still in certificates from puerto rico, which

republican party, the republicans are in the minority in the house and the senate and very few statehouses, few governorships and the republican party is functionally dead. it doesn't have a coherent philosophy. reagan now is embarking, traveling to california and says the group of business men come to him and we want you to run for the senate. i don't want to run for the senate. what about governor? that piqued his interest. he began going around the state taking soundings during local business groups and civic groups and other organized groups and getting feedback and feedback from the people was good so that is when he decided to run for governor of california. now he is broken from hollywood. a citizen politician. >> let's go forward from the time to choose which was the title of his speech, and amazing speech, go on youtube and watch it. there is a landslide for johnson over goldwater. we come forward in time from the time he spends in sacramento, now we are in the nixon era. here comes a ronald reagan to challenge the party at a moment when the party is shaking and things aren't clea

south carolina removes the confederate flag from the statehouse grounds after the murders of 2015. it certainly did not make everything better in south carolina. but it did make things better than they were before. disarm to some extent, confederate legacy at large, because its most parcels of had powerfuldiated -- most symbol had been repudiated. well chosenhat a repudiation can be an important part of the toolkit. >> it is interesting because, while all of that was happening, there was something else going on that while they were coming private property owner started putting up 40 and 50 foot tall battle flags. while that was going on, even in our own gift shops, we were getting phone calls and our gift shops asking us if we sold battle flags, confederate flights, they wanted. for us, it turned into an educational opportunity. well, which one? because that is what we do. at there was a spike, significant spike in our sales. and we do have an internal conversation about that. so, yeah, it may have come down in public space but for some it made them even more ardent and their desir

course of my talking to him, the kid fainted and we had a moved so we walked from the front of the statehouse over to the holocaust memorial. i got off on one of the walls and i talked to those kids about what this memorial was all about. i said you need to go and read what happened here and understand, i said you see that thing that is present and if you save one life you save the world. all those groups should be there because what it is as inspiring. if you think of something, fight for it to get it done. you've done all your lifetime. and you got to the point you were willing to give up big things because it violated your principles. why do you think i like you. >> host: i think one of the lessons we have learned and at least when i was at the national governors association you didn't know if the person next to you was republican or democrat, it doesn't matter and now i gather that has gotten much more political. >> guest: it's become infected between governors. i'm not even a member of the national governors association because i don't go to meetings where nothing gets done and all i see

lawmakers clashing with each other as demonstrators overtook the statehouse of representatives, creating tension? is this the start of a new trend of in your face protesting? jeff flock is life on the scene in springfield, illinois where protesters are holding a sit-in outside of the governor's office in the state capitol building. how does it look so far, jeff? reporter: very loud sit-in, liz. this may be a powder keg of our own. you see the sit-in, this is in front of illinois governor bruce rounds office, a large crowd outside of here. i will tell you why they are here and what frustration is in just a moment. stay tuned.

we're talking about historic republican control of state legislatures, statehouses and governorships. 67% of federal appellate court judges are appointed by democratic presidents, 2/3. joining me now, to talk about the left-wing judiciary and, well the deep state judiciary and in many cases and their attempts to block president trump and the supreme court decision from the to review north carolina's voter i.d. law, we have the senior legal fellow at heritage foundation for center for judicial studies. hanz, great to have you with us. this is preposterous to sit there and listen to as we did today, the arguments before the three-judge panel. it is, it is, it is a kangaroo court the ninth circuit court no matter how you can cut it, isn't it? >> 80% of the decisions that are appealed and accepted by the u.s. supreme court of the ninth circuit are overturned and often the court adopts the dissenting opinions written by the small number of conservative judges on the court. >> well, as we look at it what do you think will happen? automatic turn to the supreme court? are we just wasting time

if everyone on capitol hill down to every statehouse, every kitchen, every company, just operated from that place of what is best for our kids, what what i want for my grandchild, what what i want for my daughter, my son, my neighbor? if we operated from that place, these issues would be so clear. it would be easier for us. so with that said, i'm going to continue to work on this issue. there is nothing more important than our kids health. we can give them all the money in the world, we can give them a great education, and we are not doing that as well as we should. we can expose them. but if we really want to make this country great, then our kids need to be healthy, and they need to have access to the best, and not just some of them, but all of them. they need the best that we can give them. i think that pha, the work you are doing here, is just beginning to take off. we will spend the next year figuring out what that looks like. what are the next steps, how can i be of help? how can i be a good partner? that will take a little time but i'm here. being here at this conference, this s

and bakari sellers, cnn political commentator, former south carolina statehouse member.nks very much. scott, president campaigned on various populist ideals, the rust belt a big part of his winning strategy. so how big of a problem is it if the resident there is feel sort of betrayed by him right now? >> well, i think you can always anecdotally find people who don't like a politician that they recently voted for but on the whole here, wolf, in kentucky, where i live, donald trump is still overwhelmingly popular and i also think there's some degree of nuance you have to look at in this reporting because while he is proposing to cut some things that some people say they still want, there is a recognition here in kentucky that we cannot necessarily afford everything that's been promised by the previous administration both at the federal level and here at the state level. and so what you have in kentucky is a recognition that at this point, we now have one in three people on medicaid, and there is a discussion going on. is this something we can actual afford and is donald tr

. >> joining us now bakari sellers and statehouse members. guys, thanks very much.w big of a problem is it if the residents there feel sort of betrayed by him right now? >> well, i think you can always antidotally find people who don't like a politician they recently voted for. but on the whole here where i live, donald trump is still overwhelmingly popular. and i also think there's some degree of nuance you have to look at in this reporting. while he is proepsing to cut some things some people want, there is a recognition here in kentucky we cannot necessarily afford everything here at the federal level and at the state level. so here in kentucky you have a recognition at this point we have 1 in 3 people on medicaid, and is this something we can afford is donald trump left with making the hard decision to get this program back into place where we can afford it and it can truly take care of people who need it. so there's a balance that has to go on here. but i think in kentucky would still overwhelmingly win the eelectoral votes if an election were to take place tod

democrats are going to have to be focusing on these races, winning back statehouses. saw it with republicans in '12. looking at young faces. >> i think that's smart. you mean somebody in their 40s? >> maybe their early 50s. maybe with a business career, maybe who is well known in a state. and is going to run -- >> hot off the bench. >> hot off the bench. >> i've heard that theory too. you don't want a guy with a lot of targets on their back. >> on paper, the best looking candidate to me right now is sherrod brown from ohio. >> you know who i was pushing last time for v.p. the whole time. it didn't do me any good. >> he's got genuine working class populist -- >> talks like a working guy. >> he wears those ohio suits. exactly the -- >> what is an ohio suit? i've heard of the full cleveland. it's a white belt with white shoes. >> whatever suit sherrod brown is wearing, that's an ohio suit, i guess. >> even though he went to yale. >> he gets those voters back. >> it's interesting to me. being the only millennial on this panel, i must say that democrats, especially young m

the idea being you would find red statehouse democrats, put them in a cabinet, nice gig, you open up and you could win back the seats in special elections. well, that has not happened and the question now is given these jobs still left and given how competitive this next race is going to be, will the administration find some house democrats in red america, put them in the cabinet. there is one job that is still open as we know, army secretary. it's been twice -- not turned down, but it's open and i think there are folks on the hill who are kind of hoping this administration will find room for house democrats in the cabinet so they can get some of those seats. >> and there has been talk on what was actually promised to a lot of these republicans to get them over the finish line for health care. one thing i'm told is money. they know that they will need it especially for the 14 republicans who voted yes and come from hillary clinton districts. where is that money going to come from? you have outside groups, american action network has launched a $2 million ad in 21 districts. i'm told

protesters speaking out and them trading strange words and almost fists and punches on the statehouse floor. these are elected officials. that's the amazing thing. maybe it's good. they all need a little summer break. great to see you, ed. >> i might be back in a couple weeks. the governor of texas is considering a special session so they might all be together in the same room. >> stand by for more. kumbaya it is. "inside politics" with john king starts right now. >>> welcome to "inside politics." president trump again tweets his frustrations with a russia election meddling investigation which now includes big questions about his son-in-law. >> look, we have a special prosecutor. we're going to be looking at this. you know, this might be -- come out to when -- you know, what did the president know and when did his son-in-law tell him? >> plus the first shoe drops in a white house shakeup and the first public comment from robert mi mueller since he became special counsel overseeing the investigation. >> you can be smart aggressive, articulate, but if you are not honest, your reputation

. >>> political sparring in the texas statehouse spiraled into actual sparring after a republican representativeon protesters rallying against a new ban on sanctuary cities. >> yeah, not just pushing and shoving, either. apparently, including threats of one lawmaker shooting another. ed lavandera following this for us in dallas. what happened here? >> reporter: well, john, grown men in suits turning the texas house floor into a schoolyard shoving match. essentially, what happened, yesterday was the last day of the legislative session here in texas, where lawmakers meet every two years. the last day is supposed to be a ceremonial, kind of quiet day, but there was a number of protesters who had shown up in the house gallery to protest senate bill 4, which is the senate sanctuary city bill that was signed by the governor of texas a few weeks ago. those protesters showed up, essentially shutting things down for a little while, and that's when democratic lawmakers say that a republican lawmaker came over to this group of hispanic lawmakers and said "f" them, referring to the protesters, and that he h

my parents i topic him we moved to the statehouse, a hous houset sugar beaches on the atlantic ocean, 22 rooms. i had my own bedroom for the first time in my life. i was scared to sleep by myself. my parents did what was right, elaborate the tiger they went out and got me a sister. her mom i prefer to live with us because there's a chance to go to a better school. this is very common in liberia. eunice and i will raise to get ancestors. then when that trying to happen and are found was attacked, we ran away. eunice didn't come with us. she chose not to come which is something i did was at the time. i came here thinking we just left her, but it's a long, complicated story that a go into my first book that we were separated for 23 years and it wasn't until 2003, i didn't know didn't know she was alive. i went back and found her again. and sort of found my sister can. that's what my whole first book was about, about going through, when the trench will happen in 1980 by fannie was attacked. my mom was gang raped by shoulders which he traded herself to protect me and eunice and my younger

. >> elise, there's a reason we pick all of our presidential nominees from the statehouses, not the congresst were they doing for six years? >> i think they were too busy chanting and not spending enough time thinking about how hard it was going to be to reform a major government program. turning it back. margaret thatcher tried in the uk. you never have any luck giving something out and then taking it back. certainly that's what we're seeing now. it's amazing, obamacare is actually popular again because the republicans -- >> the first time. >> exactly. for the very first time because republicans have handled this so incompete incompetently. >> we're pounding on republicans, okay? i happen to be a republican. listen, the prn president obaobn got a lot of things wrong and did not know how to work with republicans on the hill. there was great missed opportunity there. just ask david axelrod -- >> i talk to boehner six times a week. >> john boehner says the same thing you're siaying, a great missed opportunity was the failure of the president to stand with him and do a grand bargain. >> not jus

they have very few statehouses,n very few governorships. and in many ways, the republican party is functionally dead. it doesn't have a coherent philosophy. so reagan now is embarking, he's traveling to california, and he says a group of businessmen come to him, the same group, and they say, well, we want you to run for the senate. he said, no, i don't want to run for the senate, i don't want to run for congress.. they said, what about governor? that piqued his interest, so he began going around the state taking soundings, doing local business groups and civic groups and other, you know, organized groups and getting feedback. and the feedback from the people was good. so that's when he decided to run for governor of california. but, so, i mean, he now is just completely broken from hollywood. now he's full-time -- but he called himself not just a politician, but a citizen politician. >> so let's go forward from "a time to choose," can which was the title of this speech which remains an amazing speech. you can go on youtube ask watch it, ver

he also has nearly 3/5 of the statehouses. under the circumstances of a structure of government that is relatively unified under the republican party, one could argue that the expectations for legislative compliment done through congress, rather than executive order, should be much higher. trumpvy: is president getting in his own way and coming up short relative to the expectations? >> like i said earlier, i think he is learning the job. he is morning where he is going. -- he is learning where he is going. we were talking about how george w. bush did this in the first 100 days. he was a former governor. he understood this in texas. i think as time goes on, he will start to get victories. eventually, he will get to the point where he will understand either the hard way, by losing the house, working with democrats, or by a different way, by saying, i got to work with some democrats, get the job done. victories might not be as big as i want them, but america needs to move forward. he is going to get there. he is not there today.

. >>> tense moments here at the texas statehouse that were captured on film. cameras caught this incident in austin yesterday. texas is debating a law that requires local police departments to follow all federal immigration laws. protesters showed up to show opposition to the law. the representative told a group of hispanic members of the house that he had called ice on the protesters. >> and we both what -- what? you did what? yeah. i called ice. and he said f them. >> you say things to incite people and that's what i did. >> later lawmakers held a news conference to accuse him of putting the bullet in the head of someone on the floor. comment was made in the direction of hispanic democratic representatives. >>> here at home some students at los gatos high school say the issue of racist prom inhave a stations should be a wake-up call. a junior used the poster used in this edited photo saying do you want to be like an n word and hang at the prom? it also had a drawing of what appeared to be a lip muching. another student, a senior used a black face emoji and t

look at every -- we need to look at every congressional district, every senate district, every statehousetrict, and say to ourselves, if we commit to increasing voter turnout every term by 5%, we will find ourselves in four years with more than 10%, because of compounding. but we've got to do it. we've got to start now. we've got to engage directly. and we've got to be intense about it. we've got to remind people to vote. we've got to use social pressure to get them to vote. by the way, don't tell people to vote. tell people to be a voter. it actually makes a difference. a noun versus a verb. ask them to take on an identity as a voter. so i mean, we've got to be on offense against jeff sessions. oh, and by the way, this little war on drugs thing he wants to bring back. >> i was going to say. >> sorry. >> no, talk about it. >> he wants to drag this discredited idea of harsh sentencing back. it's shocking to me. we had a bipartisan consensus a few years ago to lower the crack powder disparity from 100-1 to 18-1. it should be 1-1. the way we incarcerate people around nonviolent drug offenses

look at every -- we need to look at every congressional district, every senate district, every statehouseistrict, and say to ourselves, if we commit to increasing voter turnout every term by 5%, we will find ourselves in four years with more than 10%, because of compounding. but we've got to do it. we've got to start now. we've got to engage directly. and we've got to be intense about it. we've got to remind people to vote. we've got to use social pressure to vote. by the way, don't tell people to vote, tell people to be a voter. it actually makes a difference. a noun versus a verb. ask them to take on an identity as a voter. so i mean, we've got to be on offense against jeff sessions. oh, and by the way, this little war on drugs thing he wants to bring back. >> i was going to say. >> sorry. >> no, talk about it. >> he was to bring this discredited idea of harsh sentencing back. it's shocking to me. we had a bipartisan consensus a few years ago to lower the crack powder disparity from 100-1 to 18-1. it should be 1-1. the way we incarcerate people around drug offences is ridiculous, in my
