so, leading up to the battle of trenton. this is a story that's around -- been around for a while and that's was there a spy who infiltrated the hessians at trenton and reported all their dispositions to general washington? so, just see if you think that's -- that's true or not. you may have heard lots about washington and spies. any of you watched turn, it becomes a very popular narrative that washington used many spies. but this particular story, you can see there was a plaque to him there actually in new jersey. of -- for his work as a spy. but was this true? did this actually happen? all right. so, about 70% of you say yes. about 30% say no. so this is a tough one. we don't know, for sure. and that's because, now, people -- proponents of this story, the john honeyman, the story is that he was a local tori. that he infiltrated -- but he -- his actual heart was with the patriots. he infiltrated the hessians. then, he pretended to be captured by the americans. was brought to washington. washington interviews him, at night,

the second battle of trenton, they run out of daylight. cornwallace says, we'll bag the old fox in the morning. then what happens, the temperature plummets so deep, that all those roads freeze over. washington is able to maneuver all of his troops out of trenton, go around the rear flank, and attack at princeton. it just so happened that the weather is going to actually fall directly in place. it's going to support washington's troops and slow down the british and drive their infantry. one of those, oh, it has to be a myth, but it actually helped the american cause. you know, it's amazing how some of this happens. just pretty interesting. all right. let's see. did many of the continental soldiers lack shoes during this campaign? now, this is a story that i see constantly. they talk about, you know, barefoot continentals. you know, not being able to -- you know, lacking proper footwear and all sorts of things. is this a myth? is this something that was made up to make the continentals look more brave than perhaps they weren't were, or do yo

there was -- his superiors were telling him to fortify trenton.y were telling him to get ready for an attack. raul, who performed very ably at the battle of new york actually doesn't build any fortification. he says that he -- you know, he's very overquestion didn't. he says these are a bunch of country clowns and let them come at me. we'll give them the bayonet but as far as the story from the notes. this story doesn't appear until almost 100 years after the event. one of the first role what we would consider a history of this event was written by a man named william striker in the 19th century and he published things like the fact that they were drunk and other traditions that have been passed down orally and includes this story, so maybe it was true, but when i -- because raul, unless he was german and wrote it down in german, that's the only way he'd be able to read it, and that's really the first documented time that he had this note, but, you know, again, it's up to who you want to me of from history. did the crown forces outnumber the ameri

he only leaves around 1500 hessians, under rall, at trenton. washington divvy up his forces, and he's the only guy who gets across the river to attack trenton. his 2400 men. he will outnumber the hessians. he has 2400, they have about 1500. washington brings artillery, massively outnumbering that hessians as well. in this case, he has more numbers. at the second battle at trenton, he's even with the british, both around six or 7000 men. then, at the battle of princeton, he vastly outnumber so british. around six, or 7000 people. the british only have around 1500. so, in each of these events, washington was able to set it up so that his men were in a numerically superior position. most of his men don't have as much experience, or not as good soldiers as the well disciplined, trained, british, so that does affect how these battles could have played out. washington always trying to be numerically superior. during this first battle, did the continental army suffered zero deaths at the battle? >> now, if you watch the movie, the crossing, it's a goo

in his pension application, he described the 1776 attack in trenton, new jersey. we received orders to march christmas night, crossed down to trenton early in the morning. we entered the west end of the town. general washington came into the north end. we marched down into the town to the corner where it crosses the street and turned up the street. general washington was at the head of the street coming towards us. there we had the fight. after about half an hour, the firing ceased. general sterling rode up and we were ordered to follow him and crossed to the north side where we formed in line. they marched down to the old ferry where they were ferried to the pennsylvania side of the delaware. private francis ended his army career. the remainder of his deposition recounts his militia career. too long to recount here, he did state, i went out when it tame my turn until the end of the war. some of the wonderful material you can come across. jacob francis struck a small blow for freedom. at the time, they all lived with and were the slaves of nathaniel jacob bought m

after the trenton campaign, glover word operate in the north primarily. there is a handful of individuals that may have effectively served in the south another units because they traveled that w way one way or another but for the most part they had not operate in the south. but that was unique of the special operation units they have conducted for instance they had raids against the british and even launched a series of fire ships against the british in a couple of weeks before the battle of brooklyn where several men had died or perished as they drove their ships directly what were effectively british battleships one of those or several perished in the process but it is a story of heroism. >> this is a question about leadership and the leadership qualities washington had. not just washington but other key figures including glover is there a leadership trait you think is key to the success of this regiment? >> absolutely. this book is filled with leadershipfi examples to sacrifice their lives and fortunes for their lives and their country. and it is mind-

a trenton he served one year in the artillery under captain william miller. first continental bosses are basically labors for the guns. he continued. he served for two years under captain michael rudolph of maryland in the light company late infantry commanded by colonel harry lee who was henry lee father of robert e lee. command was composed of infantry and calvary calvary and known as lee's lesion. he was in three general actions at monmouth guilford courthouse. in utah springs at utah springs. he received three wounds. he was wounded in the shoulder slightly lost the thumb of his left hand. it was by bayoneted in the belly. he was just charged on combee river honorably. doesn't south carolina. the day before his discharge. he was in the battle and was charles john lawrence who was commanded who commanded in the absence of colonel lee was killed 27 august 1782. pebbles 2 though free man had to deal with the issue of slavery post war in his pension he testified for occupation. i'm a miller from the infirmities of old age increased by the wounds received in t

-- or the trenton princeton campaign that washington conducted against him.o he decides to use the mobility of the royal navy and his brother of course commanding the royal navy, and he loads his troops on ships, and his plan is -- whoops. let me go back a second. so his plan then is to load on ships and take his army by sea, and they will ultimately end up going up the chesapeake bay, land south of philadelphia, and then they will march on philadelphia. that's howe's plan. again, fairly straightforward, but obviously, those are two very very different plans, and it's up to germain to coordinate these plans. there's germain in the center. then he's got howe off to the left there and burgoyne to the right. the problem of course is there's a distance. there's 3,000 miles between london and new york. you have the commander-in-chief sitting in new york, 3,000 miles away, burgoyne and germain and the king are sitting there in london. when you've got messages that can take two to three months to go back and forth across the atlantic, it makes it very very difficult

at trenton he served one year in the artillery under captain william knorr. he served for two years under captain rudolph. his command was composed of infantry and cavalries and he was in three general actions, at an mouth, the courthouse and utah springs. at utah springs he received three wounds. he was discharged on combat and discharged honorably. the day before he was discharged he was in the battle that john lawrence who commanded the captain lee was killed, 17 august. a free man he had to deal with the issue of slavery post-war. in his pension he testified for an occupation i'm -- increased by the wounds received in the revolutionary war i'm not able to render my service to my employer. i am a free milado and my wife and children are slaves. my wife's name is rachel and my child's name is ursula, age 11 years. now several other virginia regiments told of enslaved family mention when they applied for the pension in the early 19th century. thomas mahoney was a little planter on a form not his and was unable to pursue it by reason of age and infirmity. his

>> yeah, you know, i will go back to, you know, the campaign i mentioned, trenton, princeton and, you know, we just talked about how fragile everything was, you know, i think nothing -- nothing shows that more than that campaign and although the myth is this painting of washington crossing the delaware confidently and going on to great victory in the founding of the country, that at the time it was how close we came to actual defeat and, you know, i love this quote, you know, from john adams to his wife when he says posterity, you will never know how much it costs the present generation to preserve your freedom. i hope you will make good use of it. if you do not i shall repent in heaven that i ever took half the pains to preserve it. i think that's a great quote to realize how grateful we should be and that -- and that all of this, that this entire -- the country as we know it today would not have been possible without the sacrifices and the efforts of these people 250 years ago. you have to remember it's not this myth, this actually happened. >> thanks, mark, for sharing. ms. smiley.

but at the battles of trenton and princeton, i think he was let loose. he didn't have as many responsibilities. it was basically do or die. his tactical -- just in those two battles, his tactical verve right there was probably enough to keep him up top. and like i said, i think after that his responsibilities really just overwhelmed him and he was trying to keep an army together and trying to direct the division commanders. but i think at trenton and princeton he was able to let loose and become basically a small unit commander to a certain extent. >> i disagree with that because i'm wracking my brain to think of who i've worked with in research and all. he's got a bunch of lackluster people under him, man. >> i think the answer billy was looking for is what brian threw up in the chat, and that's benedict arnold being the best battlefield commander in the sense of -- i think that's on his boot monument that's up there at saratoga saying that he is the most brilliant of the american commanders. and brian mentioned, yeah, he won on land and sea, and was kn

in our times the third palin to john the baptist to donald trump road trenton brought real america to the forefront of our politics. and yet it is a rebellion against free america because of the rebellion but ordinary voters against the clichÉs of reaganism, free trade, immigration, low taxes, deregulation. none of that really spoke to sarah palin's people and even donald trump's people. they were living in deteriorating places in postindustrial cities, and small towns that were d king as main streets a lot of boarded up shops. it was really no longer the sunny optimism of reagan became darker and hostile to group seen as alien. whether to delete on the coast or black americans are all others. surreal america is a rebellion from free america they've had a very uneasy coexistence in the republican party with free america continuing to dominate the top with mitch mcconnell and the koch brothers. but real america are the voters the republican party now has to pay homage and kowtow to that. and finally, ontologically in the last five or six years we've seen an explosion of a new narrative

next town over in trenton it's 44%.nd that strain will find pockets of people who are undervaccinated, and it will spread and it will put a real pressure on our healthcare system. >> one of the reasons that so many people are still not vaccinated is because of vaccine conspiracy theories, lies, misinformation. those thrive on social media and right-wing media circles and have been for months. the biden administration trying to combat this. as a former acting cdc director, did you ever have to deal with the misinformation campaign like this? did you ever reach out to your media outlets to say, hey, you're killing your viewers? >> it's a much more challenging situation now, jake, than it was in 2009 when i was the acting director at the cdc. now, there's so much information available on the internet. we're seeing among media that there's such a polarization, people are going to their own sources, and we don't have a common data set, a common source of information. so it's much more challenging. i wouldn't lump everyone in

washington into this decisive battle because i think by that time, by early 1777, especially after trenton and princeton, i think he realized that washington and washington's army was the american center of gravity, if he could destroy washington and washington's army, that that would end the rebellion. he obviously wasn't able to accomplish that. he's not able to get his decisive victory. he beats washington a couple times, but can't get that final big decisive victory. after that, i really think the war goes into that different stage where ultimately it goes down to the south, and then you really have a much more of a counterinsurgency like conflict, and i think by that point, again, i think only the americans could have beaten themselves at that point. that's my personal assessment of that. and when you look at -- when you look at how the saratoga campaign played out, one of the options that is presented, which is presented in sort of a throw away afterthought manner is well, you know, one thing we could do would be to use the navy, load up the troops who are up in canada, sail them bac
