lawson, patricka mallet, cordelia pal yard and robert wilkins. compared to the way senate democrats treated president bush's d.c. circuit nominees, the confirmation process for president obama's first nominee, judge evason was a walk in the park. he was confirmed 11 months after the nomination but a vote of 97-0. not a single republican opposed his nomination. now compare that to the vote on president bush's d.c. circuit nominees. 43 no votes for judge brawn and 23 no votes for judge griffith and 36 no votes for judge kavanaugh. you would have thought it was the 1990s again. president obama's other d.c. circu circuit nominees were confirmed after the senate democrats changed the rules. and in order to eliminate the filibuster for lower court nominees. the hubris of this move was quite something. it was democrats, recall, who first deployed the judicial filibuster ten years earlier to block president bush's nominees. now that the shoe was on the other foot, and a democrat was in the white house, senate democrats had no compunctions about changing

figure out exactly who she was and there's a section where i think she may have been called jenny wilkins give you some idea of who she was. one needs to pay respect to the other people in the story. if you put franklin too much front and center, you forget he was a team player and there's a sense in which you're not doing justice, they shouldn't be seen as people who are secondary players in the great drama. they're entitled to their own respect, so to speak. >> i have read where out of allthe founding fathers , franklin would fit in to today's society the easiest. what are your, i always tell people the dead i have no idea but i'll put it to you. what are your thoughts? >> it's a bit anachronistic but there is no question he had the broadest experience because the nature of his experience is as a printer and as somebody who traveled to london and all these different places and done so many different things. a journalist and publisher. he had that variety and flexibility and he was prepared to change his opinion and he did change opinions so certainly i think he would be able to fit in m

chris wilkins is with me , a former director of strategy and speech writer for theresa may.al would be some legally binding document. there has been talk of a cold sore idea, a kind of appendix to the agreement that has already been signed off. —— codicil. i think that is a stretch too far but could you meeting to persuade conservative mps in particular to change their mind and vote for this. because polite words are not going to do the trick? there might have been a time when that would have worked. if you wind back a few months you would have imagined getting to this point with this kind of deal and maybe parliament voting it down and then some slightly warmer words and did going to buy the second time after the mps had best save of the but the difficulty now is mps i think i've lost faith and trust in effectively the centre and trust in effectively the centre and that is because the way that negotiations i think i've been good. a failure to reach a more obviously on the part of number ten to some more moderate conservative and labour mps more moderate conservative and lab

there is a free market think tank, they have will wilkins from that institute just wrote a piece about what he called the spiraling crisis of american corruption, which includes failure to require financial transparency of those who would fix our fates. all of these groups hide who their donors are. there is no financial transparency because they are fronts for the fossil fuel industry, and if they reported all the money they got from them, their purpose as front groups evaporated. creating, as wilkinson continues, a class of rich and powerful miscreants who profit by ghawing away at the rule of law. god forbid we should have real hearings on climate change that there should be legislative rule of law. god forbid that we should get honest opinions out of e.p.a. based on the science of the rule of law. all of that goes out of the wind so that miscreants of the fossil fuel industry can get their way. their pooled wealth, wilkinson continues, can be deployed to keep themselves in the money, and that is what is going on, creating in what i think is a really pointed phrase in our country, a
