this unit was from berlin. this is training with gsg-9. as part of these guys knew, they came from the united states. they had no clue they came from berlin. we had an urban training area inside berlin that we used quite a bit. that is the bare-bones assault units. today you would never see an assault or uniform like this. he would be encumbered by 200 pounds of lightweight armor but , still 200 pounds. precision shooting tactics. being able to engage her targets seven meters to pull the shot groups the size of a teacup. and we built an assault range where you could practice multi room, multiperson injury -- entry tactics. we began to train on airplanes. this is an interesting story because the field manager in europe said i know you guys have , something to do with us. if you want to use our airplanes, it's quite all right with me. he did not clear this with corporate headquarters or anything. this is not a broken jet. this is the jet that would be used the next day and it gives you full access to the jet, pulling the doors open, knocking

i was in a pretty good position though. i worked in both units. worked in the operations center and i got to see a lot of the documentation, so i knew a lot of the history before. i think, more me, was the fact that a lot of the guys you served in the unit that i talked with did not know where they had come from, where their predecessors were, did not know the connection with the office of strategic service. that is another reason to put the stuff down into a bark. what you forget in the history you end up redoing. past is prologue. you have to really look at that when you are a soldier. have we done this before? what can i learn from my predecessor? that surprised me often when i am talking history or military. how many people do not know where they came from. could you have a clarification -- >> could you have a clear vacation? you mentioned yugoslavia. it was never part of the soviet army. did you have operations there? >> berlin did not. the sovietpart of organ, but it was tacitly toeeable to supplying forces the warsaw pact in the event of war

was any sort of discussion among the nascent american in like politics in the united states? and what we were willing to concede to these foreign powers? thank you. >> the alliance between, was always between the united states and france. spain did not formally ally with the americans. so there really were no treaty negotiations to speak of and certainly no concessions. concessions came afterwards, when they were debating about where the line of control on the mississippi was. but during the war, the treaty of alliance and also the military treaty in 1778 primarily, there was the treaty of amity in commerce, which i think the -- said we will be nice to each other and we'll trade. actually it was based on john adams' model treaty, that was very specifically economic in nature. and that's what franklin had kind of gone over with originally, and the military treat treaty said very little that i can remember in 1778, about any concessions, about land, there was nothing in there, about we're going to pay for this or pay for that. this was not a transaction, this was a treaty. there

his name was harry truman. when the united states entered the war in 1917, the army was not prepared to fight in an international war. one of the things they were lacking besides a number of men was also artillery. world war i was a war of artillery. 60% of the battlefield deaths were caused by artillery, by the projectiles that were fired over the battlefield. so when the americans went over to france, they primarily used french artillery pieces. one of the major ones was the french .75 millimeter gun. it was advanced for its time. it had an incredible recoil system. so when the gun was fired, the barrel actually moved and the gun stayed in place so it didn't have to constantly be readjusted. when the americans, of course, started using these, they used four guns in a battery. a battery was commanded by a captain. one of the batteries in the 129th field artillery in france was from independence, missouri. his name was captain harry s. truman. harry truman, of course, went on to become the president of the united states, and h

and so it was the united states in cuba and brazil that was really still, you know, pushing for slavery and slavery was really thriving in these places. >> host: the middle of the civil war, abraham lincoln issued the emancipation proclamation. 1863? >> guest: 1863. >> host: any effect? >> guest: it did. one of the things that's interesting is that because africans at american slaves are so interested, so invested in freedom that as soon as the union forces arrive in virginia, in south carolina in 1861, faithfully. faithfully and they go behind union lines basically saying believing that this is an army -- they flee. an army of liberation. these were not armies of liberation, but this is during the american revolution, the war of 1812. anytime some force came down to fight what was the leak, which was the masters, they thought these people must be here for me. and so the emancipation proclamation of 1863 did give legitimacy to those persons who were allowing those military men, who were allowing slaves and stand behind the lines and work behind the lines as free people. >> host: april 1

within several weeks, one of the top men in his unit was killed in an ambush and he remembered 45 years later when we talked how he struggled so hard not to cry when he learned that this young man was dead. the screen just died in the last month and he encouraged me before he died to be sure to tell the stories and his wife shared with me some things that he had written including something ten-dozen years ago when he wrote in a diary and sharp detail about this young marine that had been killed in an ambush on the day. he didn't get. i tell the story of a young massachusetts man who joined the army. he was drafted coming out of boston college and he talked to somebody down at the army recruiting offices to ask what his options were and they said you're a college graduate and you can probably apply to ocs and go there and be an officer. he said why would i want to do that might have to serve for two more years and the recruiting sergeant said i'll tell you why you can be inside the officers club drinking a cold martini or you can be outside the officers club walking on guard duty for tho

that was decisive in terms of the establishment of the united states. as was their tendency, the successful rebels against british rule repaid the spanish by then beginning to denude them of their colony. a lot of historians have made a good living like telling a sentimental story about how the u.s. helped to aid mexico circa 1810 and succeeding years helped the spanish from mexico. that was supposed to exemplify this progressive anticolonial trent in the united states. what was happening is that the united states wanted to oust spain from mexico so they could descend on mexico, which they , establish in california, in which we are now sitting away from mexico. you can say the rest was from latin america in terms of this disinterested progressive assistance from the u.s. government to the rebels of mexico to deal with latin america. what is interesting about u.s. relations with cuba is the fact that after the establishment of the united states, the u.s. slave traders replaced the spanish in terms of supplying africans to cuba. not only that, but many of

here he is meeting the president of the united states. he was there with the american legion. he had this opportunity. a photograph that clinton uses. when he runs for governor of but also president of the united states. above it is a picture taken in 1962. by a friend of mine. he was a photographer in that time, working for the los angeles times. kennedy would spend a lot of time with his brother-in-law and his sister in malibu, california just outside of l.a. jfk would run out to get a bit of that warm california water. little by little the public would realize the president is out there. kicked off his shoes and went out and made this memorable picture in august of 1962 of the president surrounded by a crowd out there on malibu beach. nominated for a pulitzer prize. gerald ford years later will explore the same thing. there are several photographers picture of e this him leaning over his reading desk behind his regular desk. a lot of people feel like he was leaning over reading the newspapers. as some of you know he had back problems and had a back brace. this posture positi

states was it wasn't the only player in the international system and the united nations for example was also created with russia's help but when you say that there is no comparison between the united states and russia i would totally agree with you because russia is not responsible for iraq russia is no the sponsible for libya russia is not responsible for syria how can you claim that the world is a better place because of the united states when you have three brutal conflicts that have killed hundreds of thousands of people displaced millions and you can still say that the united states made the world a better place how come i can say it without reservation the united states has also turned europe from a place that had multiple great power wars into a place where you have democracies aligned nato aligned with the united states you have peace. stability freedom economic prosperity and russia's trying to undermine that you know ask countries on russia's border ukraine georgia do they want to be part of russia or do they want to be part of the west and the answer's

it was a pilot and four decision in the supreme court that open the floodgates for financing with citizens united. -- it was a 5-4 decision. that will not happen now given the supreme court. host: north coletta. charles is a democrat. in morning. -- north carolina. charles is a democrat. good morning. caller: i believe donald trump does have a big role in that russian -- there's no way you are going to sit back and let this man keep going at it and you do nothing about it. theset think none of senators have any balls. i believe don't. they let donald trump get away with just about anything. yet future million americans that depend on health care -- why would you try so hard to do away with it? -- you have 24 million americans that depend on health care. give obama credit for something. north carolina, we have two of the worst senators in there. guest: with regard to the health care, we don't know what the senate is going to do. the senate will be taking up the health care issue. it is a motion to continue the debate. we have no idea and i don't think the senders have been idea what they will be v

what's interesting is that this was happening in the united states. slavery was booming at the time that itbegan to dwindle in the americas . britain had emancipated slaves in the 1830s. france had emancipated its slaves in the caribbean in the 1840s. so it was the united states and cuba and brazil that was really still pushing for slavery and what slavery was driving in these places. >> the middle of the civil war, abraham lincoln issued the emancipation proclamation, 1863? >> 1863.>> and the effect? >> it did have some effect. one of the things that's interesting is because africans in the american slave trade are so invested in freedom that as soon as the union forces arrive in virginia, in south carolina in 1861, they flee. they flee and they go behind virginia lines. leaving that this is an army of liberation. of course it was not. these were not armies of liberation. this was during the american revolution, the war of 1812. anytime a fourth came down to fight the elite which was, they said they must be here for me. so the emancipation proclamatio

bush was the closest thing to a third term for ronald regan. >> the 40th president of the united stateshe leads office as our oldest president and as one of the most popular ever. >> he was a chief arc tekt of the 1980s. you don't always identify business the years but in this case '80s should be the regan years. >> they called it a regan revolution and i'll accept that. to me it was a great rediscovery. a rediscovery of our values and commonsense. as long as we remember our first principals and believe in ourselves, the future will always be ours. once you begin a great movement, there's no telling where it will end. >> the fair firmness of his etoric enabled him to be pragmati pragmatist. the fac thate raised taxes, the fact that he appointed two pro choice justices, they forgave all that because he had been for so long their champion. >> president regan understood that we judge our presidents on the basis of what they get accomplished and he understood politics, the art. that together with the fact that he was a beautiful human being, those were the secrets to his success. >> the las

he was a platoon leader with an infantry unit. nd his in-country orientation he was told that the critical thing for an officer was not to cry. never to cry. never to show that emotion. within several weeks one of the temperature men in his unit -- top men in his unit was killed in an ambush, and he remembered 45 years later when we talked how he struggled so hard not to cry when he learned that this young man was dead. this marine just died in the last month, and he encouraged me before he died to be sure to tell the stories. and his wife shared with me some things he had written including ten or a dozen years ago where he was writing in a diary in sharp detail about this young marine that had been killed on that ambush on that day. he didn't forget. i tell the story of a young massachusetts man when joined the army. he was drafted coming out of boston college, and he talked to somebody down at the army recruiting office to ask what his options were, and they said, well, you're a college graduate, you could probably apply to ocs a

the visit was a very historic visit, as it was the first time that a seated british monarch had been to the united experience that visit was tapped off with a picnic on the porch here at top cottage, that hotdog picnic. when this place opened up to the public in 2001, the queen mum was still alive, and set remarks to be read at the opening, and nothing to do with the hot dogs top cottage as a building, that you talk about fdr's driving. the roads we mentioned earlier, the bumpy roads, she said, i was holding on for your life. she said, i thought for sure i was going to die. fdr drove own words, like a bat out of hell. they arrived for that today, she quickly exited the car. it is a very steep last section, and was happy to make it appear in one piece, but she exited the car, he had their picnic, and it came time to leave, and fdr said, why don't you get back in the car and we will go back down the hill, and she said, no. fairly having wrist her life one day -- once that they, she was not willing to do it a second time. i am sure fdr had a wonderful story to tell from that and embellished it over t

at one point the poncho was ahead 30-0. >> brings to mind another epic battle against a poncho, featuring a former president of the united >> that was actually pretty epic. george w. bush had trouble with one during donald trump's inauguration. laura bush looking on. this spectator in london was in good company. >> w. had good fun with that moment. >>> so if you decide you want to get into a water gun fight don't do it with a former nasa engineer mark rober. >> mark is now the proud owner and creator of the world's largest super soaker. it can firewater at more than 270 miles per hour. hard enough to break glass and to slice a watermelon. >> instead of using pressurized air to fire like the toy version rober uses pressurized tasks of nitrogen gas. >> totally normal. >> last year he put together the world's largest nerf gun. ♪ to keep hair strong against styling damage, you need... ...more than a conditioner, ...you need a miracle. pantene 3 minute miracle daily conditioner... has a super concentrated pro-v formula... ...that makes hair stronger* in just 3 minutes. so your hair is smoother everyday. pantene 3 minute mirac

in the case of christopher metsos, that documentation was used to support his travels throughout the united. so the svr stopped sending it. >> that meant the svr had to find new ways of funding the u.s.-based illegals. in monitoring richard murphy's communications, it became clear that the svr was going to task a credential dd russian diplomat to meet with murphy. >> he was sent a message via the steg nothingraphy to meet with murphy. >> they sent a communication. >> who was the russian diplomat? >> i can't say. >> the exchange happened midpoint on the stairs. the russian diplomat removes a small satchel from the bag and places the bag into murphy's open backpack. in that bag, we assess there had been approximately $300,000 in u.s. currency. >> the theory of the illegals' program is that they have no connection to the russian government. when richard murphy conducted a brush pass with a russian government official, that tied him to the russian government. it was a big break in the case, because that gave probable cause should we ultimately interdict the illegals' network. >> one interesting

bush was the closest thing to a third term for ronald reagan. >> ronald wilson reagan, the 40th president of the unitedfice as our oldest president and as one of the most popular ever. >> ronald reagan was the chief architect of the 1980s. you don't always identify a president with the years, but in this case, reagan should be identified with the '80s. >> that you call it a reagan revolution, i'll accept that. but for me it always seemed like the great rediscovery, the rediscovery of our values and common sense. as long as we remember our first principles and believe in ourselves, the future should always be ours. once you begin a great movement there's no telling where it will end. >> the very firmness of his rhetoric enabled him to be a pragmatist. so with that faith in ronald reagan as he's our conservative warrior. the fact at that he raised taxes and appointed two pro-choice supreme court justices, that he signed and abdicated a bill for amnesty for # million illegal immigrants, they for gave all that because for so long ronald reagan had been their champion. >> president reagan stood that you get

it was about the views of intellectuals around the world, the united states, 25 years after the end of the war. i was in india. i did not know anybody in india. i had a researcher who said i will get you some journalists. one guy was built to me as the editor of a magazine. pretty liberal in india. india in those days was neutral. this was beginning the vietnam war. 1965. he was an editor, like the new republic. i interviewed him, interviewed a couple of other people. this guy was very pro-american position in vietnam. so the broadcast airs, and i get a call from a magazine called "problems of communism." did you ever run into that? this was a cia operation that had intellectuals running for them. karen: "problems of communism." >> it is a journal. karen: nothing is coming to mind. "he was one of, ours. he was cia." i discovered a british intellectual magazine, also funded by the cia. karen: the estimates of cia funding for all international foreign policy books is very high. 80% of all. lbj appointed a three-person commission and gave them four weeks to report after the ramparts flap.

the exhibition began in 1932, the year franklin roosevelt was elected president of united states. 1932 was a year of tremendous crises for the nation and the world. the country was in the third year of the great depression. in 1929, when the depression began, unemployment in the united states was at 3.2%. by the time roosevelt was running for president in the fall of 1932, it is almost 25%. so, the context of the election in 1932 was of a nation really in a state of disarray. and a state of fear. this gallery really points that out and we have dramatic photography, which -- the state of affairs nationally. this photograph is poignant. it is a photograph of new york central park in 1932. in the foreground, you see a shanty town, one of many like this that had sprouted up across the nation. there were many of them and they were nicknamed hoovervilles. that was named after albert hoover. -- herbert hoover. this is a very poignant reminder of the skill of human suffering -- of this scale of human suffering in the year 1932 when frank and roosevelt was running for president. the 1932 democr

was a success. often times new presidents have pressed spokesman -- press n who are veterans of the campaign and not as skilled as making the transition for spokesman a president of the united states. i don't think he was very effective. he was argumentative and easily baited by hostile reporters. job is to make his boss look good. i don't think he succeeded at that. host: what you think anthony scaramucci brings to the role of communications director? guest: initially he brings, i assume, the confidence of his boss. white house press secretaries have an ambiguous past. they are in the service of their political boss, but they also have to get along with the press corps. it's kind of a contradictory challenge. you can't satisfy both simultaneously often times and it's a delicate balance. very few bring it off successfully. mr. scaramucci has had a job for less than 24 hours. i am hesitant to say anything except he seems articulate. the question is whether he knows what is going on behind the scenes, which is basically what reporters want to know. host: i want to read something from your piece.

and it was also very popular in the united states. by the late 60s, volkswagen was the leading import brand in the united states. this was before tea toyota and nissan were as big as they are today. when beetle inevitably started to become obsolete, they had a lot of trouble replacing it and by the early 1990s the company was in pretty serious trouble and there was talk it might go bankrupt. they were in serious trouble and this is where they come back into the story, remember they designed the first beetle in the early 1990s his grandson became the chief executive and came up through the rain and he was in many ways even more of an automotive genius than his grandfather and succeeded in turning it around. he improved the quality and style of the cars. sales recovered, profits recovered but he also had a dark side. he was dictatorial and had no compunction about firing people that didn't meet his standards and had many known anecdotes about him calling engineers into a room and saying this is what i want you to do. you have this much t

and last year, we know the united states was the victim of an attack by a foreign power in the very foundation of this dear democracy, the right of the people to a free and fair election. the consensus view of 17 agencies is that mr. putin interfered in the 2016 election. for that alone, the united states has more than just cause to sanction president putin and intelligence -- putin, an intelligence apparatus he directs. but to date, mr. putin and his allies have not suffered serious repercussions for this stunning breach of our right as a sovereign nation not to have our elections disturbed by a foreign capital. that all changes today. congress has drafted this sanctions bill to hold mr. putin accountable for his actions and to send a message to him and the rest of the world, any further attempts to degrade our democracy will meet further sanctions and action. we will not stand by idly as this has done. there is no process more sacred in a democracy than the guarantee of free and fair elections. that fundamental right was attacked by mr. putin, and with this vote, let us finally, finally, fin

ed was also very popular in the united states. in fact, by the late 60s volkswagen was the leading import brand in the united states. this was before toyota, nissan was big as they are today. but when the beetle inevitably started to become obsolete, volkswagen had a lot of trouble replacing it. and by the early 1990s the company was in pretty serious trouble. there was talk of michael baker. they have built more cars than they could sell and they were in serious trouble. this is where the porsche family comes back into the store remember porsche designed the first beetle in the early 1990s, his grandson whose name was -- became the chief executive. he had come up to the ranks at audi. he was in many ways even more of an automotive genius and his grandfather, and he succeeded in turning volkswagen rent. he improved the quality and the static of the cars. sales recovered, profits recovered but he also had a dark side. he was dictatorial. he was known come he had no compunction about firing people that didn't meet his standards and h

was the con dduit for the meeti. but jared kushner is a government employee with access to the top secret that the united states government has. the fact that he was not willing to put this on his security form when it first came out was a very problematic thing. if you're now meeting with an individual like you said, somebody who has access to a lot of the greatest secrets the united states has, and you forget to tell about i met with a russian lawyer with ties to the kremlin, probably tied to the security services, that's a huge problem. >> and again, he has said repeatedly, mackenzie, that he didn't know who this was. he didn't know the name. he just said this was an associate of him said will you meet with this person? you've advised campaigns before. is that unusual to take a meeting with someone you don't know and bring in other high profile people from the campaign including paul manafort and jared kushner? >> it's very unusual. you wouldn't want to put all your star power with a loose connection to the grown. you would want to spread out your staff resources if they were such a small shop. why aren't they busy doi

he was never in the united states. the border is very real and not elastic. dugo theught in ver question was a search that occurred wholly within mexico with the cooperation of the mexican authorities. >> and this court denied to extend that protection. i believe those facts provide or provided even a greater rationale for this court to extend those protections given the fact that the united states planned the act in the united states with mr. verdugo in the united states and the search occurring in mexico. here, the seizure occurs in mexico. mr. hernandez is in mexico and outside the sovereign territory of the united states. there is no de facto jurisdiction of the culvert in this area. it is very dissimilar. >> who controlled the base and here we know that this culvert, at least as far as paving it, keeping it up, spending millions of dollars, seeing trade if it ever is filled with water, that the ships are free. it is a joint effort of mexico and the united states. so this is not just like a fence. it is an area of two fences and between those two areas is

don't deserve where the united states bombed you know gadhafi his father his fighters his military anyone and wanted with impunity and nobody else could fly up in the skies and it was also an interesting bit about chemical weapons where the united states said that russia has an obligation to stop assad from staging any further chemical attacks the key word here being further because it was never stablished for a fact that assad carried out any chemical attacks by an international body an international investigation take the latest attack that happened in april this year the. nation for the prohibition of chemical weapons which was investigating it then investigators didn't even go to the location to gather soil samples to establish what this chemical attack was what the gas used was they were given those samples by rebels the other thing about chemical weapons is that washington says russia has an obligation by the same logic you could hold the united states responsible if any of its allies like the s.d.f. syrian kurds or for example the iraqi military if they resort to immoral or illegal methods of. more like torture the russian foreign ministry also warned that t
