i contacted the lawyer who is representing, the person who brought this original case, and wanted toell my story. so that is how i got involved. nermeen: louise, you ask in your blog post in question that is repugnant. -- pertinent. first of all, this practice is widespread. you ask in your blog post, why is it that women carry the shame of their abusers? can you talk about that? why is that? -- i think it is partly conditioning. and that goes back to your childhood. it goes back to this colter of compliance that we have in our parenting, inner education system. and we focus so much on that and not on building relationships and connection, that we and up -- end up very vulnerable to either them discovering the way to get things is by being a bully, which is what happened harvey, clearly, or you end up the other end of that power dynamic where you are more vulnerable to finding yourself in these kind of situations and the adverse charted experience study has shown that people who have experienced childhood trauma or inverse city are much more likely to be victims of sexual assault lat

look at who belongs to it. look at who is on the human rights commission. if you're not a tyrant or dictator, you are not allowed on. the all get together and say, hey, we're doing fine. israel is condemned like 100 times a year. you wouldn't want to condemn venezuela or cuba or zimbabwe. you certainly wouldn't want to consider what the chinese are doing to create a truly tutorials terry and system. they are tracking every cell phone in china. that would be inappropriate. i think what trump was saying is profound. you might look at what he is doing to deregulate. he is returning power to the states, to local communities, following the law, and i know from my friends who claim they worry about democracy. the great number of executive orders that were illegal and unconstitutional were signed by barack obama, not donald trump. there are profound differences. there is a simple problem. the american people rebelled. this is not a local thing happening in austria. it happened in the city of rome, which elected the first woman mayor. it is happening in catalonia.

it was about getting someone in who would understand business, who could make decisions, who could get things done. this is part of the other problem. when you look at his approval rating today it's the highest it's been since the inauguratio inauguration, congress is going between eight and 10%. part of his job is to get things done in congress but americans aren't seeing that he's the problem. they are seeing the same thing we've seen for decades about whether things get done in congress, what kinds of things do move forward, is it really about limited government, is it really about handling the budget properly, and americans aren't seeing that when it comes to who's getting something done. >> which americans are we talking about? >> certainly we would love to have a president, we have americans who do not think he is levelheaded or fit for office. they're embarrassed by him. his approval rating, what america are we talking about. >> were talking about the same america, he's under 50%. they're giving congress eight and 10%. it is that america was looking at the spectrum, viewing him

who people who care about the laws don't break them.laws. 527 people we re over 580 federal laws. 527 people were injured and 59 dead. these are the heaviest violations there are in any country. so the guy is definitely a criminal with a criminal mindset. how do you stop that? sharron oren, good to talk to you. later in the programme, we'll be speaking to a clinical psychologist in washington about what could have driven stephen paddock to mass murder. and you can get all of the latest on the shooting in las vegas, borisjohnson has told the conservative party conference in manchester that theresa may will make a success of brexit and the cabinet is united behind every syllable of her recent speech in florence. mrjohnson has been criticised in recent weeks by some colleagues, who accuse him of undermining the prime minister on brexit. mrs may told our political editor laura kuenssberg that she valued a cabinet which was not full of people who agreed with her at all times. first of all, i think strong leadership is about having a range of

steal them and american voters who choose who our next president not the russian dictators who hack us. that's a mission that can bring us all together again. that can rise above the divisive politics of the day, that can revive small towns across america. if we do these things and other things, we can move america forward again and why do i think we can do this? because we're democrats. because in tough times democrats have always risen to the occasion. because it was democrats who got us out of the great depression. because it was a democrat who led us to victory in world war ii. because it was a democrat who said we'll put a man on the moon and it's democrats who made it happen. because it's democrats who led the fight for civil rights. because it's democrats who led the fight for equal rights and it's because democrats who said once and for all that love is love and you can marry who you want, that my own brother can marry who he wants and it's democrats today who are protecting and preserving universal health care and one more thing, i think it's time for a new generation of de

so i felt the first half is who general kelly is and who he has been as somebody who has proudly served in the military and the second half is who he has been forced to be as chief of staff to president trump. >> he's now -- he's a former general. he's now in a political role and one has to consider that. >> i think he gave the president good advice, which is i'm not sure i would make these calls. when i worked for president bush he did a lot of private meetings and everybody got a letter. and we didn't do it in public. these things weren't litigated in public. litigating this in public has done an extreme disservice, i think, to the family. the only person's opinion who matters here is the widow and those kids. i think trump thought he was trying to do the right thing. i think it's also possible he did it poorly. and i think it's highly likely that this congresswoman who hates donald trump is trying to score points off of it. i don't think kelly is wrong about that. i don't know that there's any good that comes from continuing to litigate this for the white house. i mean, the only thin

because i think most people, you know, who are political observers and even people who don't -- who want to see president trump succeed feel that president trump isn't really doing that great of a job because he is always, you know, on twitter and sort of getting involved in distractions rather than doing things that are substantive. >> isn't it wisdom and grace and class, that is something you can't teach, it's something you have to want to learn. so, i don't think that this president -- >> it's just that he says he's able to speak to the president, you know, so why does he have to go out into the public and do an interview if he's able to speak direct limb to him and speak his mind to him? and what is the point of that relationship if president trump -- i guess on occasion listening to him. for the most part, doesn't seem to be. >> you have to wonder -- >> the one thing i would say about tom barrack, i agree, he comes across, he seems like a really sort of nice and, you know, sort of wise old hand. but he is the guy i think who gave us paul manafort, you know, along with roger stone. >

they were not as high in the hierarchy as the men who were engineers who were considered professional employees. and so, i think that that is a large reason why this work was invisible. they were kind of the equivalent of our computers sitting on our desk doing the work today and yet, without them, all of these advances would not be possible. >> i'm interested in how you decide to focus on this. because i know of course he was surrounded by these people when you were growing up. and you know, i've done panels were talk to people and i go will have this idea, and i made a reality by doing x, y and z. and i think wait a minute, i want to hear about how you had the idea. because that to me e is key. deciding -- there were plenty of other people that grew up around these people and in your neighborhood where you will growing up i'm sure everybody knew these stories.what made you decide this was worth a book? >> i told the story before. it's interesting. the moment, there is a very specific moment when hidden figures, what would become hidden figures came into existence. and interestingly,

or a wife who wanted a husband who said -- who she said, or a wife who wanted a husband disappeared. in 1870, francis parker took up an ad that was very frank -- frances parker took out and add looking for her two brothers, that was very frank. it said they escaped on the underground railroad. -- from whom she had been separated in a place called ally white. she says later on in the ashes carried back to the plantation by those union troops, and that is when she was separated from them. they likely were in the process of running away when they ran into the union troops. many ads simply describe loved ones who left, they use that term. 17-year-old james haskins farm to join the union army. brothers and sisters, in 1858. hannah willis spann did the same thing, looking for brothers left in kentucky. these ads serve as important evidence. these ads, in particular, when they are using a coded language of how enslaved people are more often than not responsible for their own emancipation. these terms like left, and escaped, on the underground railroad. and the ads leave clues for genealogis

are asking for too much, who are always going to be angry who are unpatriotic, who are disrespectful, who are criminals. that narrative is something that he thinks he wins every time he does it. and i think the nfl is another example of that. and so i'm not saying that he bungled the call because he knew it was a black woman on the other side. i don't know. but i think his ability to see he could get out of the mess, the political mess of not having talked about the loss of these lives by attacking a democratic congresswoman who is an african-american woman. i think it plays into that psychology that he has and that political strategy. it's very calculated on his part. >> he doesn't mind getting into a public battle even with people who support him. i think it's -- everybody is fair game as far as he's concerned. he'll pick a fight with anyone. >> even with parents who lost loved ones. your paper and this network have been all over this story. where do you think -- it seems to me some of the questions that are unanswered are whether there was any contact from president obama and anyo

s who are out of order who get out of law and so it's roughly comparable to the speaker of the house in the. in the u.s. for instance with the one caveat that the president of the brain the stuff is supposed to be fairly neutral i mean obviously he comes from a a party he's going to vote with that party but they have the additional responsibility of being a sort of a neutral judge ensuring that everybody plays by the same rules that's why the choice of the vice presidents who take over when when the president isn't available to run the proceedings is so crucial so which is what he's saying is basically the post is very much like the speaker in many other parliamentary democracies across the one a draw in a fair or not be heard obviously jepson talk about both gun shy of the wolfgang schauble is the former finance minister and key is the person who's been nominated to be the president of the bundestag and the parliamentarians have been voting on his the nomination tell us more about wolfgang short going what he bring to the role if his election is endorsed. by its indeed important to

so this is not somebody who necessarily has changed the way that he's doing things regardless of who is around him. and, you know, i don't understand tom bear rack's relationship with him because he seems like a pretty reasonable person. >> he is, actually. >> when he talks about the president, i don't quite know what he's talking about. he's saying he's just doing such a terrific job and such a great job. i'm just curious what he thinks the president is doing so withel because i think most people who will political observers and even people who want to see president trump succeed feel he doesn't do that great of a job because he is always on twitter and sort of getting involved in distractions rather than doing things that are substantive. >> wisdom and grace and class, that's something you really can't teach. it's something you have to want to learn. so i don't think that this president -- >> i guess it's just that he says that he's able to speak to the president, so why does he have to go out into the public and do an interview if he's able to speak directly to him and speak his m

who knows who he talked to or had interactions with who is connected with the white house or the trumpampaign since then. what this tells you is that contrary to what the white house said after that meeting that donald trump jr. had at trump tower was disclosed, this was not a one off thing that the russians were approaching the trump campaign with offers of dirt on hillary clinton and trying to be taken up on that offer. george papadopoulos may have more information than what we see in this plea about what exactly the instances were and what the reaction was. >> it was significant what jumped out. a lot of other things in the affidavit. they obtained a judicially authorized search warrant to go through his e-mail and facebook and phones. they were monitoring him big time. >> absolutely. he had obviously come to their attention in the investigation of this larger issue of the extent to which russia was trying to find an end to the trump campaign and they have a lot of access to it. he may have e-mailed or called other people under scrutiny by the special counsel who have not been named

who can you talk about, who's the most important confederate during the war? r.e. lee. isn't even close. you can talk about him without talking about slavery. you can even pretend he is sort of anti-slavery if you squint just right and stand on your head and turn the lights out. you know from confederates, that part of it, i won't belabor that, you can talk to lee, he's your best card. he was a brilliant general, he did win great battles against long odds. joe hooker did have twice as many men at chancellorville yet -- as lee had, and yet, at least , lee won with his covert. stonewall jackson struck down a high tide tragically, if only, all the if's that linger, what if, what if, stonewall jackson, then you lower your voice, had been at gettysburg. [laughter] prof. gallagher: what would he had -- we know what. he would have been in a box moldering and had no impact on chancellorville and it would have seemed awkward to carry his corpse up into pennsylvania even to rally the troops. [laughter] prof. gallagher: there is jackson in a wooden box. that wouldn't work that way

," but it's the folks who get elected and are here who can make policy.want to elect more right of center conservatives so we can have a majority that get right of center results for the american people. i can't explain why outside groups do what we do but it's a reality in the modern political marketplace. >> woodruff: i want to ask you this, are you confident tax reform can pass now with this going on in your party? >> i feel, at least right now, judy, and -- i mean, i spend more time in meetings every week now on tax reform as a member of the finance committee and the leadership than any other subject. i think there is a coming together that i see happening among republicans and, clearly, it's going to be very challenging to try to get 50 votes for this. i hope if we can get 50 republican votes, we'll also attracted democrats. but at the end of the day, it's something that needs to be done. if we're going to make america competitive in the global marketplace and get the economy growing at a faster rate and creating better paying jobs and raising wages

you are or who you love.t rely on this administration or the supreme court to uphold the rights. we need to be passing the equality act to guarantee full federal equal the grid community. [applause] with people into positions of power that end embrace practices like so-called conversion therapy. it sends an unmistakable message to, gay, transgender americans you don't matter, you're not welcome. and when the republican candidate in alabama supports the idea that homosexuality should be criminalized and whether or not people should be executed, americans of any party, any decency, democrats, republicans and independent should line up and condemn him. [applause] that includes the president and senate majority leader and speaker of the house and every single elected official who endorses the candidate whether or not we are willing to accept this kind of bigotry and teach the speaks volumes on who we are as a country. none of that matters if you do not get out to vote in every election not just the presidential o

now, i did talk to a source this evening, anderson, who was close to the white house who says, no, the president was not joking when he made that comment. this is the quote that was given to me from the source. they knew he was pissed that people found out tillerson called him a moron, and he spouted off about the iq test because he was mad. this white house knows it was not a joke. and speaking of not being amused by all of this, heather nowart, the state department spokesperson, was asked about all this earlier today, and she insisted that tillerson does, in fact v a high iq. >> new developments also today. the feud between corker and the president. >> reporter: also on the category, yes, this is real life, sarah sanders was asked about this back and forth between the president and senator bob corker. of course senator corker as you've been reporting said that the president could be leading the country into world war iii. the president obviously responded to that earlier this morning with that tweet referring to senator corker as liddle bob corker, talking about going off on the sena

we should switch name tags, and no one would know who was who. jamie, you seriously think you look like him? uh, i'm pretty good with comparisons. like how progressive helps people save money by comparing rates, even if we're not the lowest. even if we're not the lowest. whoa! wow. i mean, the outfit helps, but pretty great. look at us. >>> the president was here in las vegas today calling america a nation in mourning, sitting in the front row as the president spoke, steph anticipate mel an son. her mother was wounded in the hooting and the president mentioned her today. >> when the word and the worst of humanity strikes and strike it did, the best of humanity responds. parents and spouses use their own bodies as shields to protect their loved ones. americans dashed into a hail of bullets to rescue total strangers. among the wounded was the mother of aaron's girlfriend. she is still in the hospital, and we are all pulling for her. to every hero we helped, every hero saved so many lives. and believe me, a grateful nation thanks you. >> did it help

[applause] but whatever you might want to say about these players who are kneeling, who are protestingink i have a little inside information i will share with the president. a lot of them don't know any better. they just don't know any better. they are alien to themselves in a culture and a country they do not understand. who has ever told them that america is the last best hope on earth? who has ever told them about the sacrifices at gettysburg or yorktown? who has ever told them about the , the raising of that flag? i don't think they have been taught. i know they haven't been taught it. i have been in the schools. how many of our problems go back to that? [applause] plato said to fundamental questions in society, who gets to teach the children, and what do they teach them? that still remains the question. i will take this audience teaching my children, thank you, rather than many others. through.a lot to get i want to get through it. i will tell you about a study you probably haven't heard. take american students 13 and 14 years old asked this is a big study done it in california --

everybody knows somebody who has died, or know somebody who knows somebody who has died. these arerepublicans, democrats, these are families that have no political bent whatsoever. this is not a political issue, and i think that is why there has been such an outpouring of appreciation from all kinds of people, because this has nothing to do with politics. ms. casey: people on twitter are generally wondering are enough people covering the epidemic? are enough news organizations covering this, especially from an investigative lens? they are asking where else can this reporting go? we do not expect you to dive to exactly what you are working on. [laughter] cancasey: but what insight you give us into where this goes? mr. bernstein: everyone knows regional newspapers have been hit very hard over the past 10, 12 years. all of them are covering the opioid epidemic, but they do not have the luxury sometimes an hour to news organizations to spend six months on an investigative piece like that. we are grateful for that opportunity. i think that some of them are doing a dam good job

you just don't get into who's bad or who's good, no matter what they say.bigger than the nonsense. i spoke to the governor of puerto rico last night and i told him, we'll do anything we can to help you. if you want troopers, if you want emergency management, if you want national guard. he said, we'll let you know as we work through the paperwork. i said, forget the paperwork, you know, tell us what the problem is and let us cut through the paperwork. what's happening down there is just terrible. and maybe part of it is storm fatigue. people just kind of took their eye off the ball. but everything has to be directed that way. these people, their lives are in danger and let's just get it all done. and i think now we're doing better there. i think everybody's kind of working there. but when you get behind the curve on a natural disaster, you get behind the curve, you just play catch-up all the way and it never works out the way you want it to. >> you said this week that you didn't like the way president trump injected himself into the affairs of the nfl. the f

if she does go, who takes her place? successor, but he has plenty of opponents, too. talk of leadership does nothing but shift the momentum towards labour, and nobody wants a general election, and nobody wants us to be distracted from the real challenge, which is showing we have a vision for this country for the 21st—century. that's what theresa may wanted to set out in her speech. away from destabilising talk about the fragility of her position, for now she will be hoping to recover, regroup, and get on with herjob. we'll be back discussing the future of the prime minister in a moment but i want to bring news coming in from spain. the continuing constitutional crisis over catalonia following the independence referendum that had been declared illegal on sunday, you'll remember, hundreds of people injured in the police crackdown doing that referendum. the latest we're hearing is that the constitutional court in spain has now suspended a session of the catalan parliament that was planned for monday, at which it was thought

then we also have the collection of david valdez, who did an interview with us as well. david was george h. w. bush's white house photographer. he published a book of those as well. then we have diana walker, a "time" magazine photographer for 20 years. she is especially known for her work covering hillary clinton. but she covered the clinton white house really broadly and deeply. she also covered the reagan administration, and george h.w. bush. david valdez and diana walker are actively involved in our program. they both belong to our advisory council here at the briscoe center. >> what do you hope viewers will take away after watching these interviews? dr. carleton: the importance of photojournalists and news photographers, documentary photographers, they go by various names. they self identify in different ways. they are all photographers. but the value of their work, not only for the news, illustrating the news, but also as historical evidence these photographs , capture and document an amazing array of extremely important processes and events and personalities. so i

we do have people who advise us, experts who advise us on security. we keep track of our journalists' movements so we know where they are. >> if one of them was kidnapped and you had a ransom request of $5 million would you pay it? >> these are hypotheticals that we would never discuss as to what we would do or how we'd respond to anything of that sort. i am not going to discuss that. >> okay. okay. one student from the university of oklahoma, who is with us tonight, asked me to ask you this question. it's a wonderful question. she wanted to know whether -- we're all going through a kind of temporary phase in our american democracy with president trump and that, when he leaves office, whenever that be, we'll all return to something that resembles a normal presidency and a normal america. so what do you think about that, dean? >> i don't -- i don't know. but i would say a couple things. i think that washington and the press and the government will be different in a post-trump era. i think that there is just no -- there is no question -- i don't think,
