people like daniel webster and john c. calhoun and henry clay. maybe this complicates things a little. >> for sure it complicates things. that fwoets back to the idea i said before that people think back to the era, they call it the golden age, a burcham of guys in black coats and mr. clay, and that's how we imagine the period. you know, there were -- there was speech fieing. americaning memorizing the speech fies. but happening around that was the stuff going on in in book. congress was a human institution, not a monument, not a sort of bastion of eloquence all the time. people went to hear the speeches. but then this they said that wasn't that good. >> but i don't want to say all the time it was two guys slugging each other. but that said, i think for sure if our history books tell us that congress is this beautiful

pier 70 has been near and dear to my heart in hosting some of the largest fundraisers for daniel webster, which fund $550 per student in terms of additional resources we need, and i think that if we can keep the public land focused on those that align with the public interests and can support our community, i think we'll all end up in a better place. thank you. >> president brandon: thank you. is there any other public comment? >> hi, i'm here today to discuss my strong opposition and discuss the leasings of 102 and 104 to juul labs. as a long-time resident, a parent of a 14 year old, i'm appalled that the many years of planning with and for the community on the new iteration of historic pier 70 has resulted in the de facto privatization of public land and utterly fails the community. at expansion of private use on public land is for juul labs, a tobacco company that's come under fire by the cdc, usf, and stanford, and whose core mission is addiction is unconscionable. this company has given us a new verb, juuling, because of their slick, high-tech cigarettes. up more than 77% in high sc

ashley webster is standing by. he's dissecting everything from main street to wall street. ashley. >> thank you, maria. democrats held and hope for a blue wave this year and the midterm election, as expected, ended in a split decision. many describe as a referendum on the top agenda. the dems got control of the house for the first time since 2010 while the gop retain control of the senate. markets initially responded positively to the dc gridlock. i once ate the dow surged in a 550 points and then as i gained over 190 points and smb had gains of over 2% for the day. thanks in part to the terms bounce, all industries finished in the green for the week. due to concerns about too much supply and we can demand and for the first time in a month likely - went down more than 20% from a higher 76 back in october the third. according to the wall street journal amazon plans to split it second headquarters between two locations rather than picking just one city. under the new plan, amazon will reportedly have 25,000 employees in each location and reports claim the decision to split th

just so that we are all on the same page here, in 1989 in the webster decision, justice kennedy did not write anything, but he joined an opinion chief justice rehnquist that would have in fact overruled roe versus wade, and he did not say he was going to overturn it, but wanted to apply a test to abortion restriction which would have led to the overturning of roe versus wade. justice kennedy joined that opinion and when justice thomas replaced justice marshall, if you add the four people who joined webster to justice thomas, we get five votes to possibly overturn roe versus wade and justice kennedy famously changed his mind to not overturn roe versus wade and give us the undo burden test that we currently have today for abortion restriction. my first question and is there any theories to what happened between 1989 and 1992 the changed justice kennedy to reaffirming in part roe versus wade? >> no theories. >> i have no idea. >> the opinions by request -- rehnquist was awfully brief and underdeveloped and as a consequence, if he thought he knew what he was trying to do, it wasn't spelled

i stepped into the crosswalk at webster and mcallister, not knowing that those would be the last steps i would take for a very long time. i saw the car out of the corner of my eye, but more importantly, the driver of that car did not see me. as he accelerated into his left hand turn, and into my body, all i could do was brace myself against the hood of his car. in that moment, i knew that was the end for me. all i could do was pray. my family knew they were my everything. perhaps mostly, i have had to rely on witness accounts for what happens next because i was knocked unconscious. what i do remember was the ambulance and not being able to speak and the only thought that kept running through my mind was , three blocks from home. to read in a police report weeks later, and -- that my body somersaulted through the air three times, flew 30 feet before landing on the pavement, is a feeling that i will never be able to describe to you, no matter how hard i try. what happened to me was not an accident. it was completely preventable. we know that left hand turns pose a specific threat to pede

i looked up in my webster's dictionary the dove nigs -- a definition. this is a building preserving artistic and historical objects. since when has the worship of god not been autistic. and when people bow is that not historical. christians have been doing it for 2,000 years. the church has lost a fourth of the membership and it is now free falling from the assaults on lee, one of the most faithful members, a member that the last public service lee performed was to provide over a long vest needing on a cold october afternoon. then he went home and collapsed while offering thanks to god for the evening meal. the church is now falling and nobody in that denomination seems to care. so be it. abraham lincoln said broken eggs can never be mended. and neither can broken monuments. history and collective memorial are unchangeable. the ignorant want to banish the symbols of injustice. amnesia is not a limit if for anything. eliminating the past has never been a successful means of healing. the first thing eliminating the past does is to create and guarantee the

. >>> now to our super hero at the stock exchange at this hour, ashley webster. the biggest cigarette makers are getting smoked at this hour. i guess there is this new threat that the fda chief has spoken right here on this show about a potential fda ban on menthol flavored cigarettes. look at these stocks, what's going on? ashley: absolutely getting hammered. this is in line with everything else that's going on today. you are absolutely right, menthol cigarettes, because they were going to ban to e-cigarette side all of the flavors except for menthol because there were menthol cigarettes. they didn't want to give one advantage over the other. little strange fact. now they banned menthol cigarettes that will eventually kill off the ban on e-cigarettes as well. as you can imagine, with an announcement like that, take a look at the stocks. british american tobacco down 8.5%. altria down, philip morris. i want to mention overall mood down here is kind of a scratching of the head of where's the canary in the coal mine indicated for this particular mood we are seeing.
