so what does west point say? not a whole lot. they say it does not comment on ongoing litigation.sh. next month texas governor greg abbott is going to call a if special session for school choice. tell me, what's the governor hoping to accomplish? ashley: well, he wants lawmakers to address school choice in that special session after earlier this year texas lawmakers just couldn't agree on a policy. the governor's blaming bureaucrats in austin saying they don't know which school is best for a child. he says that's for a parent to decide. any school choice legislation expected to create education savings accounts or school vouchers to help kids attend private schools. now, public school leaders, not surprisingly, are crying foul saying texas has been underfunding public schools for years. but abbott says if lawmakers cannot pass a bill in the special session, he's just going to call them back again. stu. stuart: got it. lou, any comment? >> i think this is a good free market opportunity. they've got half the solution. the first half is school choice. the second half is a meritocracy

he's also behind the group suing west point. health or to you say this going, council? know, students intermission sued harvard back in 2014. it is 2023. we're just at a point where the supreme court is giving it decision. it's going to take time for these issues to make their way through the courts, if they even get that far. the supreme court only accepts 2% of the cases that people asked them to take. what is really important here are questions of the pursuit of equal opportunity and remedies for racial inequity in the workplace. those questions were not before the court in the case involving harvard and u.n.c.. that case is simply not about employment. it was not about contracting and as i noted earlier, the supreme court explicitly said that the question of the use of race in admissions in the service academies was not before it, so we are absolutely going to have to wait for these cases to find their way to the courts to see exactly what happens. but for now, it's incredibly important that people realize that it continues to be perfectly legal for employers to have

and fast forward, i was able -- several years later the army sent me to go teach at west point, and i was able to as part of my doctoral degree do a survey of the social and political attitudes of all ranks of the united states army. and i asked that classic question, do you think there's more or less discrimination in the military than in society in and conventional wisdom was with, of course, the military's wonderful. but when i looked, 80% of army officer at the time, unfortunately still are in the senior ranks, are predominantly white males. and if you look at the way they answer that question, 88% said, of course, there's less discrimination in the military than in society. but when you broke it down by race, it was a different story. no matter what rank they were, enlisted, junior officers, even senior officers, if they were not white, their answer was maybe. less than 50% said there was less crimination if mt. militarn the military than in society across all those minority demographics, across all ranks. and and so if you think about what that means for the way conversations ta

but i was made an honorary member of the class of 1980 of west point, maybe the west point classmates we can hear from you. oh. that's even weaker. let me go back to princeton. [cheering] that's all a result of last night. and of course my actual family. deserves my greatest and deepest gratitude. i was blessed with great parents, who taught me what it meant to serve and how lucky we were to be born in america, a country where you'll rise and fall based on your merits, where you'll be judged on the content of your character. my mother was a navy wave in world war ii. my father served as a navy corpsman in the central pacific making the assault weapons -- assault landings at places like iwo jima. neither one of them went to college but they knew what this country was about. they were working class americans who caught me and my siblings the values that duly make this country great. my father taught me that you have to plant the flag, that was a lesson he took from iwo jima. he meant that no matter the challenge, no matter how difficult it is, no matter the cost, you must accomplish you

and i think his football story at west point is pretty well known.here have literally been books written about dwight eisenhower playing against jim thorpe, the real all-american. this, you know, some some really fascinating stuff about eisenhower's college career. but he tore his knee that same season and never played football again. he became a football coach just kind of on a volunteer basis, both at west point coaching junior varsity. and then once he arrived at fort sam houston down in texas, he coached local high school, a local college. now, during war football, we don't know for sure whether he coached in 1917 or 1918 at one of the many stateside assignments that he had. he was at camp colt for a while in pennsylvania. he probably did a little bit of coaching there, but he most definitely during the national guard mobilization of the winter of 1916, 1917, he definitely coached a team from the 12th division, all stars which were based in fort sam houston, where eisenhower was also based. and actually, the interesting thing about that all star

from the west point military museum. these are different types of explosive devices, designed and used by the confederacy, mostly on water, but i found three of them that were used on land. including the one in the middle and the right, which was used on the roads in georgia, trying to defend against sherman's march to the sea. the photograph in the middle is from an iraqi police department. and these are modern explosive that are repurposed, to use as landmines and there is a landmine manufactured, a landmine in the middle. the middle photograph is actually from baghdad. you see the past is prologue, an argument i've made in the book. and here is the first time in the world history that landmines were used on a widespread basis. both command detonated and victim activated what the american civil war. and we as a nation, wouldn't use them again for another 70 years in world war ii. and our soldiers wouldn't face landmines again until world war i. on that note i would like to thank you for your time and for listening. it

this is the only explosive device at the west point military museum in new york. they have 13 different explosives that the confederates use or brought up to west point to the engineering school. but this is the only one on public display, and it was designed to target union shipping as a contact device. so you could see where the confederate states of america invested in technologies. but as the anaconda plan became more effective, the confederates, instead of wasting the technology, started applying it on land 1861, the first time that landmines were used in the western hemisphere, in the united states was in columbus, kentucky. clem, columbus, kentucky is on the mississippi river. it was known as the gibraltar star of the mississippi. you could see the bluffs here and it choked union shipping and general grant wanted to take it. he couldn't take it because of the defenses and part of the defenses were the land mines. and our surprise side, there are landmines use here. these are the maps that i designed for the book. how it jespersen was the mapmaker, but i tol

the numbers will be relevant because that looks like west point has a quota system.ota system is unconstitutional in every instance. as it may begin military academies what do you think quick. >> i think it is unconstitutional across the board of the united states of america. as the former chief of staff of the department of defense was charged and running that operation, that is the one play where you point young men and women to apply to the service academies and get them based on qualifications either. i'm a minority night didn't ask to be put in those close becaus i have brown skin or my background is native american but i got in those positions because of qualifications that others judged beyond and ast things want is for a servicemember, these young men men and women are going to be leaders and to be in a kinetic situation with their teammates and they failed to meet that task because they got a hall pass because of their minority status. cannot have that in the service academy. >> here is pennsylvania governo on automatic voter registration. >> now when you go

it's exactly what was taught at west point, but it hadn't paid off, certainly. scofield again, who probably doesn't get as much credit as he may deserve, had very cautiously, but had, of course, very decisively managed to get out of the way of hood's flanking movements over and over again until he almost failed to do so at spring hill. and it's only, of course, through a series of real errors on the part of the confederate army. very frustrating, of course, the hood that that scofield managed to get his forces out of spring hill at all. but certainly by the morning of november 30th, with dawn still a couple of hours away, the union army was on the way here to the at the time small village of franklin. and it was a little village. rex was that little, i suppose at the time i think it had a population of about 2000 and it was situated as we know, on a bend of the harp of the river and the harp it represented the final major geographic obstacle that the union army and scofield's forces had to negotiate before they hit the road to nashville and the open terrain and

william louis calvert grew up along the hudson river, near west point, and had been interested in history since youth. his profession was that of a railway machinist and he worked for what would become the new york city subway system until his retirement in 1930. by the mid 1880s, calvert was spending his free time roaming northern manhattan in search of objects left behind by native americans. and by the late 1880s, the revolutionary war soldiers who lived there. during his lifetime, he'd achieved some fame as an authority on and collector of military buttons. at the time, such a hobby was considered a gentlemanly pursuit akin to coin collecting. british born reginald pelham bolton came to the united states when he was 23 and finally settled in new york in 1894. by profession, bolton was an engineer and consulted with new york city's department of water supply. grand central terminal, and even macy's. he was also an early preservationist, having led an unsuccessful campaign to save the home of naturalist john james audubon in 1931. bolton did help save a few others, though, and his legac
