thea firm believer that white house adapts to the occupants and the occupants adapt to the white house. the presidential spouse and has a job outside the home, essentially, it will be the most superb balancing act that anyone could possibly imagine because that person will be doing that under the spotlight, try to balance the expectations that we now have for this role that you do something with that platform. that you support the president of the united states who has every problem in the world. support of athe spouse to help highlight an issue or be an advocate or be the person closest to them to travel around the world or country. to balance that with another full-time job will be a challenge. but, and i think the other complication is, all of us who know working in the white house, you run foul very easily of the ethics and the rules. you are a roller -- lawyer, you understand that. if a spouse has a job earning outside income for a private company or something, you can be sure that the white house onyers will be constantly what he or she is doing. to make sure it does not run afou

i didn't know who they were when i was in the white house. en the break-in occurred, i said, oh, no, because i knew at once instinctively it was our guys. >> g. gordon liddy, ex-fbi, ex-treasury, ex-justice, ex-white house consultant, and e. howard hunt jr., ex-cia, ex-bay of pigs planner, ex-white house consultant. >> we didn't think they measured up. it was closer to the typical gang that couldn't shoot straight. >> earl silva read the names of 60 government witnesses. the list included only one low ranking white house lawyer and several former employees to of the committee to re-elect the president. >> if you don't know richard nixon's psychology, you don't know his background, you could never understand why the white house reacted to watergate the way it does. >> from day one, there was a great sense that we were under siege. and we were not deceiving ourselves that the press did not like us. both houses of congress did not like nixon. i mean, that is the truth. and the question is how you deal with it. >> he tries to build a little like m

white people who would refuse to join. the franklin, louisiana enterprise, another white league paper advocated what they called a book of remembrance of all those people who were refusing to join the league, so their children would be "forever cast out from all association with the caucasian race." lynch, a black congressman from natchez, mississippi, recalled how local blacks tried in vain to keep their white allies from deserting them. they were informed that "no white man can live in the south in the future unless he is willing and prepared to live a life of social isolation and political oblivion." ostracism, vitriolic paired toght've been, the threat of physical harm and death that hung over whites that hailed to hoist the dinner white supremacy high enough. register,sippi another white paper, said the white men to ally themselves with negroes in this conflict need not expect any better fate than they. the fact is they will be the first to suffer. similarly, the yazzie democrat called for "down vote in short shrift for a

the equilibrium, right? i don't think this is a white house -- i hear the particular criticisms of this white house, shutting the press out, but it is not entirely shut out. the president still does media interviews. he still does news conferences and his staff still does the daily briefing. they are just trying other tools as well. and i think you are right, i do not think it is ok to exclude the press. but what is the right equilibrium in the digital age? i don't know if anybody has figured out. olivier: when you say trying out other tools, it sounds very antiseptic. but we talking about a white house that excludes news photographers from a newsworthy event, excludes us, and then releases its own -- i will call it propaganda. the job of the photographer, whose material is being released, is to make the president look good. i'm not particularly a paranoid person, but i cannot vouch for the accuracy of the photo, in that i don't know if it was posed, the postelection handshake between romney and obama, don't know how many tries it did to get right. [laughter] olivier: and what was fascinating about that part

i never expected to be in the white house. coming to work in the obama administration was my first experience. it's a huge platform, on every tv screen. you see the pressroom and you think it's a really big room and a really big house. clearly as the president comes balking down the red carpets to give a statement, it must be a really long hallway. really not. you see it on ask the scandal" and "west wing." that i have these big offices. really not. everybody's office is really small in all seriousness, the physical size of the building is quite small and on top of that, the resources of the building in terms of the number of staff and in terms of other kinds of resources is quite limited. the bunt of the white house has gotten increasingly smaller over the years. congress has not been generous to the white house yet keeping expectations for what you are supposed to project, and is especially true for first ladies. the image you're supposed to project in representing the country and being out there as an advocate with what are

i don't think the white house --i hear the criticisms of this particular right house -- white house, d it is shutting the press out, but it is not entirely shut out. the president still does media interviews. he still does news conferences with his new staff, daily briefing. and i think you are right, i do not think it is ok to exclude the press. but what is the right equilibrium in this digital age? i do not know anyone who has figured it out. host: when you say trying out other tools, it sounds very antiseptic. but what we're talking about is a white house that excludes news photographers from a newsworthy event, excludes the media from an event, and then releases its own, i will call it, propaganda. the job of the photographer, whose material is being released, is to make the president look good. i'm not a particularly paranoid person, but i cannot vouch for the accuracy of the photo, in that i do not know if it was posed. i don't know if it was closed, i do not know if the postelection handshake between romney and obama, i don't know how many times it did to get right.

first customer, the white house. e month of july was running out and on the 29th so it appeared was the influence power and economy of great britain. been struck by the worst finding crisis, and her military commitments in the far east and in germany economically tenuous, the >> the meeting was a short one by anyone's standards, which only furthered the evidence that ties continued to be strong and the dialogues fruitful. through her prime minister, great britain confirmed her atlantic loyalties and the pacific ones as well and vowed that the british economy would be strengthened. >> you and i have many things in common, mr. prime minister. one of course is politics and election results. including the very difficult problem that goes with an enlarged majority. another is economics, including that most fat -- fascinating and most unfortunately named subjected, the balance of payments. the third, mr. prime minister, is our mutual fascination with transportation. today i'm thinking in particular of shims and airplane str

the haygoods of columbus, ohio, love story, 1997. in black and white, the life of sammy davis, jr., 2003. sweet thunder, the life and times of sugar ray robinson, and the butler, and his recent book, "showdown: thurgood marshall and the supreme court nomination that changed america." this your chance to participate. we have been talking for an hour and would like too hear from you. we have gone threw couple of the books so far and will get through a couple of the others this afternoon. 202-748-8200 in the east and central time zone. 202-748-8201 you live in the mountain and pacific time zone. you can contact us electronic, book which of@chance.org and via social media,@booktv is our twitter handle, and you make make a comment on facebook, facebook.com/booktv, you can make a comment in that section. we'll begin taking calls in a few minutes. 1967, thurgood marshall is nominated. where were you, how old were you, and do you remembered? >> guest: i was in columbus, ohio. is was the summer time. was 13 years old so probably on my skateboard, skating up and

it also has real artist, now the best pictures, so many of the best pitchers of the obama white house have come from the presence of visual photographer. i know that gives the press concern. does it it give you concern as a professional, political image maker? >> it does. it occupies pre-much the last third of my book. the question of should the white house be its own news agency and to what extent are they veering toward constant propaganda. as much as i respect president obama and is much as i respect pete souza who is a former news photojournalist for the chicago tribune, i think what is happened in the way you characterize the views of the many news organizations the way they are confederates sometimes. the the white house correspondent association, you get a difference or individual photographers who get a different story depending on who you're talking to and if they're talking to anyone else. >> and some reporters would never put themselves when it's all off the record with the president. some don't allow it at all. >> what's happened is because white house and the corresponden

i said, who are the white folks? he said they're my family. they're part of my family that my great-grandmother was raped by the slavemaster and these are my family, and some of my family members have passed as white and some have lived as blacks. so that was the southern reality. after the civil war, with the klan, the klan began, and the klan started lynching, and the whole idea was against the fear of the black male, and that was -- in the birth of the nation, the most socially american -- socially important american film, it was about these klansmen going out to protect white womenhood. in the early part of the 20th 20th century. ida welts, a young black journalist living in memphis, tennessee there had been six linkings in the last two month -- lynching in the last two months for supposedly raping white women. she wrote a pete for the memphis paper saying we all know that's not true. that's not what happened and if we told the truth about whitewoman, it would not be governor the reputation of white women. this white establishment was so up

it was only later on they named it the white house. with abigail, and they were still hammering nails. the construction was still going on. slaves that worked there were well fed and had decent lodgings provided by the government, which stopped hiring slave labor in 1802. however, the feds did not forbid subcontractors from using slave labor. so michelle obama is essentially correct in citing slaves as builders of the white house, but there were others working as well. >> what is your reaction, and what was your reaction when you heard him say that? >> well, i think a lot of people responded to his statement that people who were enslaved were well fed and housed decently. and he simply does not know that. the historic record shows that people were housed because they had to live -- it was more convenient for them to live where the white house was being constructed. but it's absolutely relative to say that they were well fed and that they had decent housing, and he basically is attempting to imply that there were these conditions that m

but slaves didn't build the white house. carpenterrers did. this is going to blow your mind. ers. just like bill o'reilly can be a teeny personality and a condescending asshole. ( cheers and applause ) the white house was notability slowly or even primarily by slaves who were paid for work. first of all, is that a dr. evil meme. this meme is old enough to vote. not solely built by slaves? you can please get out of there this with hashtag all jobs matter. you do these mental gymnastics because it's uncomfortable to acknowledge that this partly was partly built by slaves. we shall overcome is not a song about how hard it is to play the banjo. and the worst part-- if you hadn't been so caught up on the word "slavery" you would have realized michelle obama was saying something positive. yes, the white house was built by slaves which is why it's such a big deal that we have a black president. if you have a problem with this i'm anything to guess it's only because of who is saying it so let me try to put this in words you can understand. i i wake up every morning in a house that was

what does the white house think? there are some who are awarened or who with the risks associated with progress we are making against isil. one example -- in at least one case, some of isil's improvement efforts to foreign fighters has changed from "come traveled to syria and join the fight," to "go to libya and pick up the "considere," or launching attacks in your home country." there is a direction in change that isil is getting to recruits. we are trying to counter the. has is an organization that a substantial number of fighters under their command, and they still have the ability to use social media to add to their ranks. we are mindful of that potential and want to make sure that we continue to be vigilant about countering that effort. >> you mentioned decimating al qaeda, increased intelligence sharing, fusion centers, countering violent extremism, efforts in closing the border between syria-turkey. taking away territory from isis in iraq. if it is all adding up to more attacks, is it possible this just isn't w

it was really tense moments for the white house. in trying and in writing the book, one thing that i really wanted to do was give a full picture of the southern senators i did not want to betray them house cardboard, racist figures. although they certainly upheld horrible views about race. sam of north carolina, he traveled a lot and you go to vintage bookstores all around the country and he was -- he collected books. his wife with him coming he was seo not a good, good, you have 20 more hardback books under his arm. and he came to own 30,000 books. somebody had written a line, not somebody, it was me i wrote this line in the book and it says, and none of the books that he collected, books about law, books about politics and history could sam irving find any justification or equality for the black man and john mcclellan, the senator from arkansas, i went out to a small college in arkansas he were and i looked at them. on the last in this visit i came across a letter from a lady named barbara ross. i'm reading the letter and it stops

case that wehe have to keep donald trump out of the white house. t it is also the case that, under current conditions, 38% plus 40% of children and the united states under poverty. in my own state, 50% of black children are living in poverty. under these current conditions with barack obama in office. freddie gray's mother is still grieving. other mothers are still grieving. call the roll. we have to do two things simultaneously. keep donald trump out of office. two, an ounce of business as usual is unacceptable -- an that business as usual is a neck's a double. it will mean the fear of electing donald trump cannot be the principal motivation of how we engage politically. >> your ideals will be subverted, undermined, marginalized if donald trump -- this is the demon i am talking about, and in my mind, that is donald trump. if we do not make that the minority of preventing the forging of a conception of the state, much less the global theaters within which america operates, if we do not prevent donald trump from ascending, so to speak, to that throne

we're now life outside the white house. jim lokay, fox5 local newses. > coming up liter in the show we are having a candid conversation about the issue off issue of police killing black men in america. noted author at georgetown washington michael derek will be joining us.g developing tonight on the heelss of two police involved shootingo in minnesota and louisiana. police received video of an officer involved shooting. it's dramatic footage that some may find disturb ting. this is the first time that d.c. has release officer body camerae video from a deadly police involved shooting. the mayor decided to make it public even though the case is still drop the gun. fourth district officersicer responding to a call forman wito a gun in northeast. they arrived to find 63 year old sherman evans holding the weapon near second and barn up streets. you can hear the repeatedepe requests for him to drop the gun. then luckily four minutes into the 15 minute video the officere open fire. more than a dozen shots can be heard. the officers

jonathan: also including a march on the white house. arted off small and swelled to a few hundred people. tim barber joins us from among the protesters. it got animated and loud but now it seems focused and calm. tim: it definitely has called down. there was a movement for everybody going over the capital where it got loud. i would not say rowdy, but definitely loud. they wanted to show everybody that black lives matter, as we see with a t-shirt. we are right in front of the white house, which is just over here. the lights just went out from the white house. they have circuit service -- they have secret service here, as they normally do. smaller of atle protest than when we were here here, spelling into lafayette park, just after 9:00 everybody march down to the capital building, steps from the capital, then everybody came back this way. on the way back, as you are watching news channel 8, write about 10:30 we were standing on pennsylvania avenue in the middle of the protesters who sat down. everybody has their hands up. they have been c

it's a situation the white house is watching closely. we begin tonight with our chief foreign correspondent richard engel. he is on the ground in istanbul. richard? >> reporter: good evening, peter. supporters of president erdogan have poured into the streets. i just drove across this entire city. i saw erdogan supporters standing on top of tanks that had been used in this coup cheering for their president. the turkish government said it survived a treasonous and disgraceful attempted coup by a faction in the military. and today supporters of president tayyip erdogan were celebrating victory. after a night of battles between rebellious soldiers and government loyalists in which at least 160 people were killed and more than 1,000 injured, the crackdown is now under way. more than 2800 soldiers and officers, alleged conspirators, have already been arrested. and more than 2700 judges have been dismissed the government said. they are now calling for the death sentence to be reinstated to punish some of them and the extradition of a cleric, fe

"white rage" is inspiring, and inspiring. it is time to diffuse the power of white rage. it is time to finally, truly move into the future. tonight, carol will will be discussing white rage, the unspoken truth of our racial divide answering your questions. would you please please help me in welcoming carol anderson. [applause]. >> thank you. thank you for for coming out on a, what days this? [laughter] i truly appreciate it. i appreciate what ferguson public library has done and is for this community. thank you. i appreciate left bank books as well. thank you. i wanted to spend some time first talking about how i got to white rage, what white rage is, and then move into several excerpts from the book and then open it up for q&a. when i first began to wrestle with the concept of white rage, it was not ferguson. it was was in fact in february 1999. when a black man in new york city stepped out on his doorstep after a long, hard days work to go get something to eat. he was greeted with 41 bullets. nineteen of which hit him. his name was nonoaud. he was was gunned down by the

the white race. are you familiar with this movement? >> i am not. >> okay. well this hashtag has been promoted all over social media by a growing number. for example one nazi sympathizer tweeted repeatedly using the handle@whitegenocide tm. are you concerned some groups are increasing their followers in this way? particularly if some of those followers could become violent? >> i don't know enough to comment. we are always concerned to go beyond propeck tif speech and

no, no, the white house says. we have -- we want to do it exactly the way you do it in your garage, staying true to the brant -- brand of what you represent. so i think there's several months worth of back and forth, will this work, when is the tour going to be on and off, and finally it happens, and marine one flies from pasadena to the neighborhood, secret service blocks off the roads, the motorcade pulls in, and president obama promptly sits down in this cluttered desk with two microphones and mark and obama have this hour-long conversation. some will remember it was a conversation that made news because the president used the n-word in the context of what they were talking about. but if you listen to that hour of conversation, talking about the problems of cities, gun control, foreign policy, obama's own history going back to hawai'i and his time at pomona and his college years at columbia and then harvard law school you emerge from that hour of listening without a single visual of what you had with a much deep

ken served in both the nixon and reagan white house is. he joined president nixon's campaign in 1968, in the midst of going to law school at columbia university, and served as a deputy assistant to president in. he then joined san clemente after he retired and helped research and write his best selling memoirs. he returned to politics in the reagan administration, where he served as a speechwriter and senior adviser. since then, he has been active in many state and national campaigns. he's a supportive member of the nixon foundation board. [applause] >> thank you, jonathan. first i'd like to add a note relative to this setting. having worked so closely with both presidents, i think you would like to know first how much they respected each other, i worked very closely with president nixon and president reagan, and president reagan had an extraordinary and deep respect for president next and for his insight and depth of -- president nixon for his insight and depth of experience in foreign policy. he also looked to president nixon for politica

at the white house. in 19918 transferred to the air marshals into thousand three. >> you are with bush. >> no in the secret service i do not do much travel overseas. when i i went to the air marshal service i saw more overseas than i ever thought i would see. my 13 years in the air marshals i flew over 4 million air miles. yes i'm exhausted. it's funny you should say that, when people complain about they need a break's what don't you understand about the title air marshal. next question. >> what is the difference between the secret service and the agents that protect the president? >> i thought the uniform secret service were protecting the property. >> they do. the the secret service is a pretty good size agency and they have the agents basically run the agency. they are referred to inside the government we refer to the secret service agent says 1811, that's a code for a pay scale. then the the uniform division officers that work, the secret service agents are also federal investigators. their their trai

the trigger for white rage is black advancement. it is not the mere preference of black people that is the catalyst for white rage but it is ambition. with drive and purpose, with aspirations come with demands for full and equal citizenship. it is black miss that refuses to accept subjugation. black miss that we give up and threw a formidable array of policy assaults and legal maneuvering, white rage consistently punishes black resilience and black resolve. how else can we reasonably explained why government after government fight so hard to keep lack children from getting an education? we sought it after the civil war we saw it all the way through the brown decision. we see it now. why is this so difficult to educate black children? why do we have this even when at least since 1957 and sputnik when the u.s. said oh we of a national security crisis, we must educate as many of our citizens as we can to be able to effectively wage the cold war, but brown was not going to be implemented so even the face of the national security crisis,

and that the blacks intended to murder the white population of the city. many whites, as i said were already primed for this, this fear all along that this would happen, many whites thought -- this is really happening, it in uprising. and they panicked. mobs of white men armed with pistols and clubs, formed downtown core march two the , marched to the scene of the shootout, and began shooting and beating every black person they could find on the street. men, women and children. over the next 36 hours, other mobs roamed through the city attacking black people on the street and in their homes, and setting fires. prominent among the rioters, very often leaving them, were the city police. why was it allowed to go on for so long? the city authorities, who were mostly irish, took no action to restore order. the mayor of the city was drunk during the whole time of the riot. but even had he been sober he could not have restored order, because as i said, his police force was involved in the rioting. that left it up to the u.s. army, but they were slow to respond. th

but, as your correspondent at the white house noted, the relationship between the white house and erdoganry strained, especially over the last few years. turkey has not done very much to help with the war against isis. its record is very spotty on that. it's been uncoppive on other things that the u.s. wants to accomplish in the middle east. i have contacts in the u.s. military who have recently returned from turkey. they tell me that the u.s. military is upset with the erdogan government and have found them to be very uncooperative over the last year or two. so you have the u.s. government publicly stating support for erdogan but privately very concerned about his behavior. and if he pimagine that he might continue this conduct and even more significant way and be even more of a problem for the u.s. and for u.s. interests in the region. >> yeah. we are just getting word large blast heard in istanbul. jets buzzing, low flying jets buzzing over istanbul. we heard activity in ankara earlier. we are now getting word that cnn turk has been forced off the air as soldiers took over that channel

in the latest polls, clinton and trump split the white vote down the middle. t whites make up only 2/3 of the u.s. population. one out of every three americans identifies as black or hispanic. conventionally, only one in ten black voters vote republican. a recent nbc wall street journal maris poll shows trump is getting about half the white vote, but with minorities he's doing terribly after saying things like this. >> look at my african american over here. look at him. >> that same poll shows in swing state ohio, zero percent of black voters are saying they'll vote for him. donald trump could win a majority of the white vote, and still lose the white house. >> that was brendan keefe reporting. the fastest growing demographic is hispanics and latinos. roughly 1/3 support donald trump. there for this final speeches, including donald trump's keynote address tonight. >>> a website to help victims of police brutality report the crime. it's called the police reporting platform. the website isn't alive yet, but they're already receiving calls for help. soon people wi

defense intelligence, the white house. secretary kerry in moscow says only that he is monitoring reports. they've seen the reports. they don't have additional information. they are hoping that there can be peace and security in turkey, but as you know, this is a nato ally on the gateway to syria where isis is headquartered in raqqah. this is the pathway for foreign fighter to and from and also for refugees ot of syria and it's been a fulcrum of not only european, the focus of european angst because of the fact that these fighters are going in and out and also reaching europe, but also for the u.s. it has been a key chokepoint and a concern that there has not been enough cooperation by the erdogan government. and that the erdogan government has been leaning toward becoming more islamist and less secular as erdogan has tried to consolidate power. and conflicted with the military. there's been trouble brewing but it has dialed down. so this is very surprising to american officials who have been monitoring the situation and are

and then the special training you have for the white house. the main job of the secret service agent is to protect the president and the first family. they have a lot of other protection details. when i started in the secret service they had six protection detail. when when i left in 2003 they had 28. so you think that they would expand the number of agents and officers accordingly. you get the impression that they would hire 500 and you work those 500 into the ground just about. i will tell you that it is addictive. want to. once you start working there in the secret service and the white house, as tough as it is in as many issues as i had -- it was a good place to work. but the uniform division of the secret service also does the bomb sniffing dog encounter slippers. >> snipers. >> anybody else on your side heard anything directly or indirectly from the clinton side about? >> if there ever any fond feelings between them and me i have sunk that ship. i mean they first tried to come and this kind of the book goes into this, they basically try t
