i was there for the "boston globe" at a rented a car as i drove out to the way and the day before the fight at i didn't know the media mostly got on a bus and without and then they got taken back on the bus picks i drove out in a car, and after the way in everybody got on the bus but i was still there. and i said maybe i should go to muhammad stretch and check it out. maybe i can get something different. and so i went and i went in, and there was no security, nothing, and i went in and/or maybe, i don't know, seven or eight people in there and you stretched out on a rubbing table. his back was kind of against the wall and build a epstein, singer, that old black magic, james brown, the singer, poppa got a brand-new bag, he was very calm and red sox wasn't there. red fox was telling dirty jokes. red fox is from st. louis i guess. he was doing the best dirty jokes i've ever heard in my life. everybody sides which is splitting and tears were in their eyes and we would all be kind of, all he would say tell another. and red sox it to know one that was even more dirty and even better than th

i don't like this comment that she gave to the "boston globe." s people and draws unnecessary attention to the situation. trish: that is what they do, gina. this is the line, right? sexism that hillary clinton is not the president of the united states right now? >> yeah. it is, if this is sexist witch-hunt as she wants to paint it, i guess that means the obama administration are sexist because they are the ones that launched investigation in the first place, trish. it also means that hillary used this in their own campaign. mails to try to take the bernie sanders campaign down. so a lot sexism to throw around. >> to gina's point, very true. that is the crux of where the whole sexist complaint, it did come from obviously the hilly opo shop. trish: wow. shows you what opposition research can do. thank you very much. markets are pretty much flat today, hugging the flat line as we wait for big earnings this week. all of this as proctor & gamble becomes the company, the biggest company, ever, to face a proxy fight as investor nelson peltz make as bid f

also with us, washington columnist for the boston globe. ron, this is a fact. no president in history has ever inquired about pardoning his family, pardoning himself, and pardoning his staff at the same time. >> yeah. lawrence, i mean we've been talking about this many nights, and everything that's happened so far, hiring lawyers, discussions about the fifth amendment, these are things that both innocent and guilty people do. but article 2, section 2 of our constitution says that the pardon power exists for people who committed offenses against the united states. and if the president is sitting in the oval office contemplating pardoning himself, pardoning members of his family, he's considering do that for people who are guilty. we need to stop and take stock of why the question of pardons is on the table right now. >> and indira, the supreme court held that the acceptance of a pardon, the acceptance of a pardon from the president is legally considered an admission of guilt. that is something that president trump no doubt does not know. it is something that pres

so i proposed a book about a guy named will mcdonough who was a writer at the boston globe when i was there. he had some mob connections and things like that and told great stories and he was probably the most charismatic guy i knew in my other editor said could you write about a 25 page proposal on this? and i did, i wrote out the 25 page proposal and he turned down and about five seconds he said, you need to write about some iconic athlete. so i wrote a list of iconic athletes and i wrote johnny unitas, bill russell, walter payton and they all seemed to have been done. there were all books on those guys. then i put down muhammad ali and i said that's the most iconic guy of all. he's the most iconic athlete that ever in the united states, but in the world and i said maybe there's something in there. and the time period i came up with on this, the last big book on muhammad ali was written by the editor of the new yorker. david remnick and it was written in 1997 and it covered the time in his life from when he was born in louisville till you won the world title in against sonny liston

leona wells is probably the most envied women in government service, reported "the boston globe." not only did she earn a good salary, "to the globe" noted, but she was the first woman to be placed in charge of affairs of a big committee, while scouting new territory for female staff. but one area remained off-limits, the senate chamber. when chairman warren was on the floor doing committee business, wells had to wait outside. male community clerks -- committee clerks freely entered the chamber, but the senate was not ready to admit a female staffer. instead, wells waited just outside the chamber and kept the door and inch or two in jar so she could hear what was going on inside. wells is largely forgotten now, but her service on the appropriations committee opened a door so whether wo -- so other women could come in. has been an all-too-brief summary of the history of the appropriations committee, but i hope it will serve as a reminder, just like francis warren or perl hayden or even leona wells, all of you are part of the history of the committee on appropriations. thank you.

it was there for the "boston globe" and i drove out the day before the fight. i didn't know the media mostly got on the bus and went out and they got taken back on the bus. i drove in the car and after the way and everybody got on the bus and i was still there. i said maybe i should go to muhammad ali's dressing room and check it out and i can get something different. so i went and i went and and there was no security, nothing. i went in and there were maybe seven or eight people in their and he was stretched out on a rubbing table and his back was up against the wall. billy epstein the singer, that old black magic, james brown the singer, and red fox was there. red fox was telling dirty jokes. red foxes from st. louis i guess and he was telling the best dirty jokes i have ever heard in my life. everybody sides were just splitting and tears were in her eyes. ali would say tell another one and he would tell another one that was even more dirty and even better than the last one. it was like the moment you know, in that moment i said i wish this could go on foreve

besmirch joseph ellis except to go back and remember the time in 2001, he won the pulitzer and the boston globeeported he had lied to his students about serving in vietnam and making the freedom march in mississippi. they suspended him for a year. he got everything back. he is a historian and now he is involved in politics. we supposed to believe someone who would tell students those lies? you write about lies in your speeches. david: brian, joe ellis is a friend of mine. i can't answer your question. he is a friend and i will not speak negatively about him. as much as i could say is positive about him as a historian and as a friend. the story broke and came as a shock to me. a serious shock but i called him right away and said i just want you to know i am your friend and i will stand by you and i have. it has happened to some other people, plagiarism charges and so forth. i guess the answer to that is historians are human. we all have our flaws and sometimes what we think will be kept private is not and i think that from a professional point of view, joe ellis, i've never sat in on one of his

annie for the boston globe. let me ask you about the group of democratic senators. how much of this is politics? how much of this is an indication there's a chance trump might actually pay a price if he isn't tough on putin tomorrow? >> well,ic that letter was sent by democrats but there are a lot of republicans in congress who feel the same way. there's been a good amount of pressure from them as well on this administration to talk about hacking, to get tough with putin this certain ways. the sanctions bill passed in the senate by a 97-2 margin. that gives you a sense of the flavor of where congress is on this. i think if the president doesn't bring this up, this is going to be something you'll see criticikri criticism on the right as well. it's not just people on the left. there just happen to be a letter from those democratic senators. >> there's a new poll out today from pbs, npr, 54% of americans think president trump has done something illegal or unethical with russia and his dealings with putin. more than half of americans. he goes into this meeting with that

. >> this weekend on the presidency a former boston globe journalist talked about their book the road to camelot. the road to jfk's campaign. here is a preview. >> one of the dangers of isething like the president that it is one way of looking at the campaign. it is a scenario, he went to milwaukee and said nixon is a nut job. or he went somewhere else. or he would to new york and there were all of these people on broadway and everybody would applaud him and then they would vote with the narrative. we took the approach heavily influenced in my case that the presidential campaign is a series of benchmarks. it is a series of decisions about the country. then they play out. that ofg to focus on in his benchmarks. i think that is what is a little unusual about the approach we took and white that took almost five years. program ate entire midnight eastern. american history tv, only in c-span3. words aht on after syndicated columnist on her book. resisting trump politics and the world we need. she is interviewed by the cofounder of go pink. >> on q could tell us about how the stage was set

back with me can the chief for the boston globe. we got this from the washington post.e new york times that corroborates what ian said earlier tonight. he also said that the animated conversation was held in full view but not within listening distance of the others present. what does this say to you? there was an actual meeting between these two gentlemen. no translater on donald trump's side. no american official present. no read out. no notes, no official government record. >> on the one hand, these meetings are meant for state leaders to converse with one another, to talk. the curious aspect is we're only now learning about this. the white house never read this meeting out. we still don't have confirmation from the white house on this meeting. it's also curious that only vladmir putin had an interpreter present. donald trump, the president of the united states does not have somebody else there to corroborate whatever happened in that meeting. it makes it awfully hard for americans to determine if it becomes vladmir putin's word against donald trump's word. if there's

rob: welcome back, bernie sanders' wife blaming fraud, jane sanders crying foul telling the boston globet that he's going after my husband by destroying my reputation and that's not okay. sanders accused of illegally obtaining a loan as president of a now defunct college that she once oversaw. all right, even democrats think their own party can't win. former campaign manager for president clinton james, very intelligent man, expressing doubt that the party will win back the senate in 2018 says because the party is without a leader. >> if a party is out of power and we don't have a presidential candidate, there's no one going to be in charge until sometime 2020. rob: there's a 250% chance that they take the house back but says the chances for taking back the senate are substantially lower than half. heather. heather: thank you, rob. well, president trump slamming the face news double standard calling out the media for going after donald trump, jr. and giving hillary clinton a pass. you can see one of his tweets there. is the president right? is the media distorting democracy? here to deba

the boston public library. it made the front page of the "boston globe." it was worth a half million dollars. the etchings and engravings were worth and they lost them. $30,000. i thought they had just mishelved them. they will find them. i knew that would happen. but it caused a lot of tumult at the boston public library because people said, why did the even have these things? shouldn't they know more about their collection? i went, card catalog. i double checked yesterday and it turns out that their rare book and manuscript department is closed until 2019 as they are going through to reinventory and make improvements. i am happy to report they are responding to that. how long did we have to wait for access to the philips library contents? anybody around for the phillips library move, how long did we have to wait for access to the philips library contents? there were other transcriptions going on and arthur miller probably used with words -- woodward's records. this was a page that woodward's crew went through and transcribed most of the stuff that was in the essex county court archives. this
