like thomas, i think almost like the foreign secretary with queen victoria, there are only interestsds. there is nothing tangible to discuss because the big thing with trade, there's no way the uk can sign a bilateral agreement with us so it will be pomp and circumstance. the british do that very well. they have had dreadful people coming as thomas i said, dictators and autocrats and so it will be purely pomp and circumstance with donald trump. i think the leader of the opposition and others who will miss the banquet, it is a lot of fun and it is good food! your point about the gold carriage, michael, is that just because he likes the idea of that or is it a kind of election asset as he goes into these elections as the us president so distracted by major events at home that he really will not have time to cause trouble in the uk? you refer to opportunity. i think it has election value but i think mostly it is about his sense of self aggrandizement. what you see is what you get with him. he is someone who just wants to be the focus of all attention in whatever situation he is in. and

thomas just hit on something about the politics in sri lanka because there is the abstract sense of iss there is the abstract sense of is as the carpet. and anyone can stand up and say i declare the caliphate. but there is a practical world in which they operate. the thing about islamic state is anyone can pledge allegiance, it is not quite so simple for al-qaeda. and where these things tend to happen is in places where governance is pretty much out the window, like syria where islamic state began for the family went into iraq which itself was just coming out of the civil war that had been brewed up by the invasion in 2003 they took over one major city, and he was the other thing that is from down—to—earth, in addition to muslims, i agree with you, they hate them but they find the religious minorities and in the case of muscle it was christians and your cds and with sri lanka it is christians. it comes to the fundamental cowardice. there is a fundamental cowardice, we blow ourselves up, we're not afraid of death. but you walk into a church with 300 people, you are a coward. mark, what

thomas. has worked steadily for some time and will take a break while thomas helps the inspector in opening the sealed package. should this be smuggled narcotics, the case will be investigated by treasury customs. the driver will be prosecuted under federal laws. narcotics will be prevented -- presented as evidence in a car will be seized by customs. eventually, the car will be sold by auction for u.s. treasury. these contain over 50 ounces of heroin and 40 ounces of cocaine, illegally smuggled into the united states. the scene which you have just witnessed was reconstructed or the actual vehicle involved, the car was taken to a custom lot. the narcotics were -- were originallyhe place found. chopper and thomas made the original strike. a customs inspector may -- reenactment.le for >> puerto rico became a u.s. territory following the 1898 spanish-american war. puerto rico -- puerto ricans granted u.s. citizenship in 1918. real america, democracy at work in rural puerto rico. agriculture depar

and i heard all about this guy thomas robb.he knights of the ku klux klan. it's so racist that the kkk added a fourth k just to -- took up the racism a notch. this is the kkkk. [ laughter ] i was like i've got to meet this guy. i had to call him up and go hey, man, can i come to your creepy compound? i didn't actually call him up. that would be weird. and i didn't say creepy compound. i actually had one of the producers call him up because he's got a way better white guy voice than i do. because he's a white guy. my white guy voice sucks. i'm like "what up, brother?" [ laughter ] nobody buys that. so thomas robb was like why don't me and your host go out to lunch? and then if i like him then he can come to my compound. which so now i'm in this weird position where i'm going to lunch with a ku klux klan member and i have to impress him. [ laughter ] racism, you know what i'm saying? >> kamau. >> yes, sir. >> nice to meet you. >> nice to meet you. >> tom robb. >> thanks for coming. >> oh, no problem at all. glad to be here. >> i

ty i know there's a balance here. >> i appreciate that commissioner thomas. i'm okay with three. >> just couple of things that might be helpful. this was approved by the district station. the tenderloin station on board with this. other thing we may have lost track of and had some balance of this conversation, they have been having late events. they have been going on. i do think that compromise is critical. i think we found it. i think this is probably as far as we're going to get for now. if commissioner thomas motion still in play for three days, i would second that. >> is it with the addition of coming back in settlemen six mo? >> the permit holder can make a request to commission staff at any point to be reheard for reconditioning. that's up to the president to decide whether we want to rehear them at that time or not. i'm assuming they'll likely come at the six month point and we'll likely approve that. >> we're ready for a vote.

and biden and democrats were against thomas' confirmation but hill said the deck was stacked against before the judiciary committee. politically this after the judiciary committee hearings is where the country stood on confirming clarence thomas. in the moment folks watched those hearing and they sided with thomas, more than two to one supported his confirmation after the hearings and look at the breakdown. it waep-- it wasn't just republs or independents, a majority of democrats ended up supporting clarence thomas confirmation and there was a bit of a gender gap but strong majority support and one of the reasons was that clarence thomas enjoyed very strong support from black americans who many of them are democrats but they sided with him in this so overall there was very strong support for clarence thomas in the moment. after the hearings there was a backlash. a female-driven backlash and female democrat candidated emerged in '92 and they called it the year of the woman and they invoked anita hill and a year later the public opinion had done a 180 and asked in october of '92, who d
