formal proposal for american's independence for that body's history, a resolution to declare that these united colonies are and of right ought to be free and independent states, that they are ab solved of all allegiance to the british claim and all political connection between them and the state of britain ought to be finally dissolved. two days of intense debate followed richard henry lee's resolution. though the outcome of that debate may not be the result you are expecting. richard henry lee, john adams and other delegate it's in favor of independence didn't have the votes to carry the day. at least not yet. so the members did what congress has always done best, they kicked the can the road. they delayed a final vote and they agreed instead to set up a committee. to study the issue. this is what they agreed. resolved that that first resolution be postponed to this day three weeks or so from now and that in the meantime, lest any time be lost, in case the congress does agree to that resolution a committee be appointed to prepare a declaration to the effect of the said first resolution. this is hardly the rousing nation-birthing moment that patriots might h

in so doing, they recognized the united states as a free and independent country.ter britain's defeat at yorktown, britain too would have to do the same. and in article i of the treaty of paris, signed in october 1783, to mark the end of the war and the coming of the peace, britain's peace commissioners grudgingly endorsed an agreement in which his britannic majesty acknowledges the said united states to be free, sovereign, and independent states. as i start to wrap up, i want to move past the dunlap broadsides and the newspaper transcriptions and the foreign language translations and turn now to another set of declarations that have been hiding in plain sight. i'm thinking here about all the subsequent declarations of independence, more than 100 of them that rebels, separatists, and state makers have crafted in other parts of the world since 1776 in direct imitation of ours. that practice began quite quickly. by the time thomas jefferson and john adams passed away -- can someone raise their hand and tell me on what date and what year they passed away? july 4, 1826

places but i think that's probably expected compared to a country like the united states where people are a little more independent in the way they conduct themselves geographically of course we're spread out here in the united states not to give any color to people but it's just kind of the way it works is new york and l.a. are different than say fargo north dakota the middle of the country now one of the more interesting cases is is south korea which was initially hit hard but has had the fastest recovery of any nation what does the data tell us about what is happening there. yeah it was pretty interesting about that is that south korea has actually managed to flatten their curves since february 29th i think about that we're sitting here and it was april the beginning of april and at the very beginning we're still talking about trying to flatten our curve since february 29th they flattened it and have been in a decline so one of the things that the data shows us in south korea is how people did respond not only to lock downs but they went to testing centers and they got tested very quickly which gave authorities

independence of these 13 colonies. and the calling forth of new states. because that's what they are now. they will no longer be colonies. they are states. independent political units that now have the authority to create their own constitutions, their own governments, and to forge alliances with foreign powers. but the declaration was more than that. in 1825, thomas jefferson was asked by henry lee what his object, what the purpose was in writing the declaration of independence and he wrote, quote, this was the object of the declaration of independence. it was intended to be an expression of the american mind. now, think about what that means. an expression of the american mind. so on the one hand, what it clearly and obviously means is that the declaration is a summing up of all of the principles that the americans had been searching for during the years of the imperial crisis. it's a summing up. so when it says we hold these truths to be self-evident, and then it lays out its self-evident truths. this is -- these are the principles of the american mind. but as an expression of the american mind, the declaration was also laying the foundation for the new constitu

in what war did the united states gain its independence? the most common answer to that among these students, the civil war. korean war got one vote. more recently, and seriously, we are subjected to incessant babbling on the 24-hour news channels as well as in mainline print publications and on social media about how the united states is more divided now than any other time in its history and our earlier speakers today have alluded to this. the pundits and reporters and others who make such observations often while others sitting around a table look at them and nod in agreement, these people betray a breathtaking ignorance of united states history. i've decided to pull my punches and particularly of the civil war. the ignorance is not a small problem. this is a real problem. i think if americans had a better understanding of our past, of the profound crises that we have encountered and overcome as republic, they could put our current controversies in better context and calm down just a little bit. there would be fewer shrill predictions of

this is not about the president of the united states or even the independent council or the inspector. this is about focusing on how the money is spent, whether or not the people who are getting the money are actually working on behalf of the american people or whether or not they're profiteering. >> so this committee will only be looking at how the money is being spent and whether or not private businesses out there are surprise gouging. you're not going to look at all at the federal response and why it took so long to get a federal response going that would have saved lives, at governor pritzker just put it? >> my understanding is that this committee will be forward-looking. we're not going to be looking back at what the president may or may not have done before the crisis hit. the crisis is with us. the american people are now out of work, millions of them are out of work. the question is whether or not the money that is appropriated will go to support them and their families or whether or not this money will end up in the pockets of a few profiteers. and that's what i understand w
