or we can now bring in indiana charlotte and she is associate director of the washington d. c. office of the highland hbo foundation, which is loosely affiliated with germany, is green party. michelle tech has followed climate finance for more than 10 years, and she also joins as from the climate conference in shemelle shake. welcome to d w. so it looks like we could be close to a deal on a loss and damages fund. what are the remaining sticking points? well, the decision on the lawson damage are actually quite clear. what the sticking point right now is the loss and damage fund is to be decided as part of an a well package . and as your correspondence has pointed out, the sticky point right now is the mitigation work program where we understand they were still until literally a couple of minutes ago. i think the closing flannery is just now about to start very on an act. serious negotiation is going on and that goes to the question off on vacation and for some, for the you who has made it very clear in their discourse in the course of the day that they see it as a package deal. so tha

rachel writing in response to a letter that she hasn't previously to a missing soldiers office in washington, d. c.. and she is correcting some information that she needs to have published. the missing soldiers office was established in 1865, i clare barton, soon after she finishes her medical assistant with the union army. and she sees that this kind of lack of information in a formalized system of telling families about the soldier status, missing an action, killed in action, and whether they are returning from p. o. w. camps. it spurs her to start a office that deals with the correspondence with veterans and their families. they devise a way to publicize this by soliciting names from the family to be put into local newspapers, and soliciting a response from veterans to write to the missing soldiers office with any information they may have about their comrades. and so rachael uses this in a way that is very atypical than many of the americans who are ready to the missing soldiers office, because unlike some of the americans who are looking for their husbands, like rachel or looking for fathers

washington d. c. which had offices throughout the south which was supposed to help black people in terms of education, legal issues, money matters and so on. congress had set up freeman bureau, it was regarded as a very important institution. douglas and other black people thought howard was doing a great job. some of you in the our audience know that howard university was named after oliver otis howard, who helped to found it. arguably, replacing howard with douglass made no sense for a president to do except that it was a way to get douglass under johnson's control. johnson ever made a formal offer to douglass. he worked through back channels because he didn't want to be exposed is going after douglass, especially if douglass said no. douglass's third son, who worked at the bureau in washington d. c. was charged with asking his father if he would like the job, and as was william --, a steward at the white house. the courtship went on in letters for several weeks. >> douglass made it clear he did not want the job and

washington d. c. there aren't 1800 officers each watching one of those monitors. doing is they're listening to the police, radio there watching were incidents, they are zeroing in on the cameras where something is happening. they are much more attentive to the camera that is on the residence where nancy pelosi is actually staying in washington that night than the place that is 3000 miles away there where their protectee is not present. so it is unreasonable think that they would've been staring about that. >> it's literally, that it is andrew monitors. like, a lot. >> you don't see all hidden triggers monitors, you see lots of monitors where, you, know there's five people in that command center who are doing numbers of jobs. and if there is something in the camera where they say, full of that camera, let's see what's going on there. the simple fact that they still have police cars and lights on one of the cameras inside which one is that, let's figure out what is going on. shows that they are paying attention. but the nypd, we had 20,000 cameras. we can watch 20,0

washington d. c., to rural courthouses and field offices across the country, across the 50 states. if you have ever visited a federally owned building, you have noticed thousands of fsp officers and contract guards providing onsite security. but fsp's, i should say fps's roles extends beyond the guards posted at entrances and exits. fps also helps government agencies prepare for and prevent any security risks that result from a changing threat environment or aging infrastructures. fps performs security assessments from all federally owned buildings and leased buildings, and makes recommendations for improvements to ensure that buildings meet required security standards. these facility assessments and recommendations are very important to ensure that security protocols keep up with the types of threats we are seeing on a day-to-day basis. the suggested recommendations can range from replacing security cameras and alarms to updating security guidances and policies. however, despite the good coordination between fps and other government agencies, all too often these recommendations go

washington d. c with her security team. capital officers typically monitor about 1800 security cameras from a center in washington, dc capitol police released a statement today that reads. in part, the department has begun an internal security review and will be gathering input and questions from our congressional stakeholders. we have been immensely grateful for the critical support the congress already provided to secure the u. s capitol complex after january 6th 2021 the funding was vital for us to implement dozens of a meeting. he it improvements. and san francisco mayor london breed says she has made changes to her own home security following that attack on paul pelosi. i am concerned because you know, i've had situations occur. i've had a number of death threats i've had you know, someone show up with protesters with pitchfork in front of my home, and you know others who have been very aggressive. so yeah, i'm definitely concerned, mayor, breed said today, authorities need to do a better job in protecting elected officials and their f

he'll have to hide away in an office in washington, d. c., you'll be out of our hair and we won't hear from him again. roosevelt was not really enthusiastic about taking on the job of the vice president. so he didn't want to be a mere figurehead, he wanted to be someone who was actually shaping policy, but he believed that duty had called, and therefore he must go. well that worked fine until president william mckinley was assassinated in september of 1901. shot to death, and therefore, all of a sudden, theodore was now president of the united states. not exactly what the bosses had predicted or really wanted when they tried to get rid of him and make him vice president. so we can pause there for very clarifications, questions? yeah, delaughty? >> i can't remember. was it fdr or theodore roosevelt that had a really long term? >> yeah. so, franklin roosevelt, the fifth cousin, will be elected four times. the only president to be elected four times and serve those years roosevelt, though, theodore roosevelt. you're not entirely wrong to assoc

so, has clara barton's missing soldiers office in washington, d. c. even turned into a museum? >> it is, yes. it's a museum on seventh street, it's part of a complex with the national civil war medicine museum. and it is open. >> and then, another comment. thank you for the very interesting talk and brigades letter writers to life. were there any surprises in the letters, other than learning about the death? or intimate details that would not be expected for that time period? >> surprises. >> when going through these letters first-time, especially kind of working on the transcripts and whatnot. the bluntness of isaac in his letter that we talked about, to rachel, about david's experience, that caught me off guard. i was a little surprised at how forward he was with that information, especially in a moment when he is trying to be consoling. so, i don't know if that was a surprise, but that did hit pretty hard. as did captain ladder back's letter. you're following along, you're almost rooting and then to get to that latter letter, it was a punch in the gut, if you would. to sudde

officers. it comes out of -- washington d. c. all told, you put all the soldiers and marines together, it's just over 200 staff. we have a white house communications agency detachment there. in charge of communications. it's coming out of the main command in the d. c.. >> can you tell us about how camp david has changed over the years? it was very rustic when fdr first came to camp david. there has been some notable additions to the complex. you mentioned there's a chaplain. there is a chapel at camp david. talk about the buildings and the activities and how that complex has changed over time. >> go back to fdr it again. it's because he took the sailors off the uss potomac. they had not had a job. he took them with them to camp david. he brought the marines on for security. fdr only went there during the non-winter months. truman is not a fan of camp david. he preferred to go to key west. he put a perimeter around the place he had the trees pushback from the cabins. during eisenhower times it was winterized. he was -- he still ma

washington d. c. there now was tensions growing cross the strait of taiwan. china has reacted angrily to lithuania, opening a trade office and the self ruled islands. capital taipei growing trade. closeness between the baltic state. anti one has raised hackles. envision china considers taiwan part of its own territory and has threatened to seize it by force. so it was angry, ran a taiwanese fund, said it would invest in little it's a little rainy laser company and war investments are on the way are actual moralist, spring in dw correspondent, so song han and tie paid. so tell us more about this. taiwanese investment in lithuania, that's now angering beijing. well, i want to give you a little bit background in the beginning on the do the indian trade representative office open in taiwan on monday. and soon afterwards i went and aus is a $3500000.00 euros investment in literally it's luthey any and then towards 2nd lasers manufacturer by the end of this year, i was expected to invest $10000000.00 euros in the area. so if we look at these 2 places, tie one and leave the area both relatively small, but key economies in the i

okay luther slater is one of the founding officers of the washington d. c.r, also one of the founding fathers of the lutheran church community in washington d. c.. played a very important social role within the nation's capital up until his very unexpected death in 1909. as a eulogy for luther slater here and you want to share just a few words that others wrote about him,. fred ainsworth, the adjutant general of the u.s. army. one of his bosses there at the pension bureau describes later. he said that his loss to the department will be the most difficult to replace. if your boss says that about you, that is pretty nice. i like that. a much more heartfelt to memorialization comes from one of the men who served along luther in the loudoun rangers. another loudoun county man. a man named brisk a good heart. in the memoirs of his service to the loudoun rangers that luther slater was, quote, not only a bag and respected but loved by all. large physically well-built man a true type of american soldier and brave as a lion. a very fitting tribute to a locally born s

washington d. c., and where specifically commemorating his presidency. when wilson took office, he had two cabinet members and particular, william gibbs mcatee and albert sydney bernal son, and others, who wanted to segregate their departments and had in mind more systemic segregation of federal bureaucracy generally. mcatee was secretary of the treasury and wilson was postmaster general. -- wilson's public commitments to several delegations of black civil rights leaders, when he received the nomination for the presidency from the democratic party. as well as to some prominent white supporters a black civil rights, such as oswald garrison villard. to, quote, do justice to the negro. and not to reduce the number of federal appointments, for instance, that had traditionally been part of the patronage machine under the republicans who had been in control for most of the past couple generations of the white house. boston and matt today sort of a fed wilson a story that both black and white employees and their offices were super uncomfortable working together, and that segregation w

officers. -- a qrf, that's what it's called in the military. at a hotel inside washington d. c., with other members carrying firearms, standing by to join his bloody war, if necessary. prosecutors say those qrf teams were coordinated in part by thomas caldwell, the fifth defendant on trial for now. today, the defense began to present its case, and we have gotten a glimpse into the strategy already. desensitize argue that oath keepers never had a specific plan on january six, and that rhodes never explicitly instructed the group to the capitol. the defense attorneys also say that the oath keepers were nonviolent during the right, and they themselves never called in their quick reaction forces, their qrfs. obviously, prosecutors disagreed. i think the oath keepers were conspiring for much more than they actually carried out on that day, hence the charge of seditious conspiracy. so what does that mean? what does the statute of the u.s. federal law? why does it exist? well, as i told you, it dates back to 1861 and the u. s. civil war. congress made it a crime to conspire to overthr

washington d. c. mike, thanks so much for break. you're breaking it all down for us. all right, let's bring in now glenn karl, who's a former deputy national intelligence officer for trans national threats with the u . s. central intelligence agency. he joins a sly from boston via skype. thanks. so much for joining us. thank you, glenn. how far can this investigation go if he has railways are refusing to cooperate? well, i don't think that it can go much further than the investigations that have occurred or the assessments. and if there's been no full investigation with cooperation from all parties on all sides of the issue and i would expect that the conclusions will. ringback ready however, partial the investigation will be the same that everyone has reached is really. ringback international or journalist you and so on, which is that it is almost certainly and israeli soldier who shot the bullet. and it is most likely that it was an accident. now, one can debate whether it was an accident or not, but i don't think one will go much further than that. to me, the issue is really much more of a domestic us political one behind the investigation. then an expectation that a

defendant told officers, i am sick at the insane effing level of lies coming out of washington, d. c little chat with paul pelosi's wife. going on to say, quote, i didn't really want to hear him, you know, this was a suicide mission. he also reportedly told paul pelosi prior to something him that he was targeting his wife because, quote, she's number two in line for the presidency, right? number two quote, we have to take them all out. when asked if he had planns, he named several targets, including a local professor, several prominent state and federal politicians, and relatives of the state and federal politicians. relatives of them. what happened to paul pelosi on friday, the morning with the attack, targeting dispositive there most powerful democrat in the country, second in line for the presidency. nancy pelosi's husband was brutally beaten by a man by his own admission, his own stated goals, wanted to find the speaker, wanted to interrogate her and break her kneecaps and then sent her in a wheelchair back to capitol hill as a message to other democrats. and now the head of the

washington, d. c. i mean, clearly we are involved. you know, it actually makes me think back to how weak in gut involved in viet nam, i you know, it was so it's just training officers. it's just a little bit of help here and there, it's humanitarian. but it's not in every is, there's an american agenda, and ukraine will be utterly, i think, unfortunately, destroyed the people and the country. what's left of it before the americans quit, to what extent do cut this new u. s. mission lead to a direct confrontation between nato troops and the russian military. well, i'm sure that both sides are going to try to be very careful in the russian side and the american side, the nato side. i don't think the ukrainians will be very careful at all if i was an american working for a government with the ukrainian military, i would be very nervous at all times because that's the kind of thing that would, i think many ukrainian in the, in their government would think is really good, we can, if the americans are injured, we can suck in more and more massive aid from from america. i think that our side is looking at simply just getting rid of all the old equipment so we can justify n

washington, d. c. so rebecca, it's great to have you on the show. joe biden says democracies under assault brock obama agrees with him. election deny is running for office across the country. as a lawyer who works for fair elections. how concerned are you about these mid terms? sure, i'm very concerned about these mid terms because democracy in the united states is under attack. we see many people in the conservative party who are trying to pass laws and trying to figure out ways to make less americans who are eligible to though not allowing these americans have the ability to vote. and the idea of free and fair election and the right to vote by eligible voters is the bedrock of american democracy. is the 1st time that americans all over the country are going to the polls since the presidential election of 2020. and since of course, the storming of the capital, are you, are you worried about that? i am concerned what happened? january 6, 2021, with its rection. it was a ride against the united states. it was certain factions within the united states deciding that they didn't want those who showed up to vote to have a voice that matter. it was people who
