this story that was central to my book is about wilkinson, they were a very famous story. if you go to gettysburg now, there's a very prominent display about how wilkinson who was a 19-year-old lieutenant of the army, the youngest artillery officer in the union army was a hero of day one in gettysburg. his unit had been sent to an untenable position by a very controversial still sedated tactical decision that was put forth by a very controversial general and this story, the myth around him is that he was this kid that was 19 years old that had held the line just long enough for reinforcements of the union army told cemetery ridge and from that position the union army was able to repel the next two day books of assault from general lee's army and basically held the union army together and by implication, held the union together. it's my belief after researching this book and there are 909 footnote in this book. you'll apologize if i look a little i weary but after researching this book, is my contention that what happened with this kid on the first day in the 2200 men that

in the following order, patricia, olivia, francine, tara, michelle, michael, karen, tracy, tracy wilkinsonf the only times -- zeke miller of "time" magazine, michael, and john sitting right next to you. that should get us through a chunk of the morning anyway. let me ask you just one thing. as you know, your committee held a closed door, classified meeting yesterday about the suspected russian hacks with officials from state, treasury, and homeland security. "wall street journal" quotes you as saying afterwards that every senator in the room from both parties was "very negative on russia" and " very concerned about where that might go." at the senate armed services committee, they asked whether what russia did was an act of war. after your briefing do you consider what of war? senator corker: i think we're all waiting to see this report. we're anxious to see this report next week. i think all of us understand that hacking is a tool that is used by sophisticated countries around the world to gain information. i think we just need to pause and take that in. so the issue then becomes, what wa

the mattress bed shared was so bad that in spite of my fatigue i stumbled considerably as wilkinson told me in the morning. here's where it gets good. god became so ill that will send ordered him back to new york. he arrived by train june 5th, 1862 looking like a walking skeleton in racks. i was wretchedly fan with a sunburned face, my hair long he wrote. my hat without a bed in which i had often said emile, may have the code of steam from the rain, the earth and the resident gun against which i had lands. a waistcoat was almost but less. my trousers tucked and can want to miss the defeat wanted to racks on the saddle. so we go on. to make matters worse, his editors immediately began lambasting him about the excess and by implication the stories the tribune was not kidding. one of them told god would almost died covering the war that he admired the herald in shaping mcclellan, for his correspondent. in other words, you were getting beaten. so it even pushing yourself to the threshold of death store to get the story was not enough to please editors in this hyper competitive new world. one

. >> wilkinson from the l.a. times. reporter: thank you. i wanted to ask about tillerson. you said he has been granted huge freedoms to appoint who he wants to in the state department. has he been granteded huge freedoms to pursue what is the mainstream policy? his own boss does not seem to have a mainstream policy? sen. corker: i for obvious reasons talked to former secretaries of state. and former national security advisors, and i think all living folks have done that, ok, at least over the course of the last year, but over the last six weeks, very intently. i think what every one of them will say to you is that secretaries of state are only successful when they are carrying out the president's policies. i mean, i think you can watch some recent history and know that a secretary of state may be out pursuing something that a president is not embracing and see how it doesn't work. so when you are talking about secretaries of state, and i know tillerson knows this well ok, , what you are taking on is the tremendous responsibility and privilege of sitting under the hood, hel

michaela and matt wilkinson in florida are split on their opinions of trump, but both think theresa mayward with the brexit negotiations, and i think she sees an opportunity, and i agree it is a savvy an opportunity, and i agree it is a savvy m ove an opportunity, and i agree it is a savvy move for her to be the first one to come over and do business with them. but i think he has a pretty long track record of using people, and i would be very circumspect with any sort of negotiations with him. samantha, you are proud that theresa may is the first foreign leader to be walking through the door of the white house with donald trump inside. absolutely! you know, i can't imagine this relationship being anywhere near the thatcher— reagan love fest, but my hope is that trump takes theresa may seriously as a woman in power, and that she holds her own, woman in power, and that she holds herown, and woman in power, and that she holds her own, and that she doesn't kowtow to him, and that she does what she thinks is right for the uk. nick taylor and matt, i said you are split on your opinions of don
