going up to a more modern day designer, william roger, founder of the ruder company.what is arguably the first firearms invention shown at the top here. this is a savage 99, he converted into a semi automatic rifle. when he went seeking a job at springfield armory, instead of a resume, he brought in this rifle and was hired on the spot. cnn >> one of the great leaps forward and designer firearms takes place in the 18 eighties when we move from transition from black powder to smoke lists powder. at this time we put the powder down the muzzle. it is a thick oily residue and especially with a rifle after so many shots, that would tend to restrict the barrel to where it became very hard to hammer around from the muzzle to the breach. reach looters were so important developed in the 18 twenties. with breach loading arms fired more raspingly rapidly because -- by 1881, an american living in london at the time develops a machine gun that actually was one pull a trigger, allows -- fiery checked and reload a new round. as long as you had the trigger. the fire goes anywhere fro

more to a modern-day designer, william roger. and his first inventions shown at the top here.this is a lever action rifle. you could turn into a semi automatic rifle. when he went seeking a job at the armory, instead of a resume he brought in this rifle and was hired on the spot. >> one of the great leaps forward in the design an evolution of firearms, happened in the 18 eighties. when we moved from black powder, to smoke-less powder. at this point you usually would put the powder down the muzzle, at that was black powder. left a residue called fouling in the barrel. it would restrict sometimes the barrel. and the breach loaders were so important, and with breach floating arms smoke list powder let you fire more rapidly, because the gun wasn't backed up with that fouling residue. i remember that someone was living at -- they would allow you to fire any jack and reload easier. these arms go from 1202 -- rounds a minute. with the development of smoke with powder, america found itself involved in the first world war, in april 1917, with new types of firearms that they had never b

conversation but also because rather embarrassingly they had it taken the secretary of state william rogerseeting. nixon was hoping for a second meeting so that Ãbcould be included and included in the photograph taken. i think they didn't have a second meeting because mao was too sick. mao looked okay at the meeting with nixon but he had really been at death's door about six weeks previously. he had been resuscitated and he looked okay but he was not a well man. >> that have lou gehrig's disease? >> i don't know. it's not clear when it started but that's what he was gonna die out. he had congestive heart failure, he had emphysema, he was retaining liquid. one of the reasons why mao had a new suit made for nixon's visit as he couldn't get into any of his old ones because it was so bloated. i think also possibly, i might be wrong, mao although a communist had taken on the attributes of an emperor, he accepted his position and emperors always tended to live in splendid isolation and very few people got to see much. the idea that mao would sit down and have long discussions and know she negotia

william barr's alleged interference with antitrust cases. aaron zelinsky is expected to testify as well. he resigned from the roger stone prosecution after barr took a wrecking ball to the u.s. attorney's office in d.c., sidelined the real u.s. attorney, inserted his own handpicked flying monkeys instead, and then swiftly intervened to roll back prosecutions of stone and one other of the president's friends. so i mean this is the last three weeks. i know time has no meaning anymore and it's hard to figure out what day it is let alone what week it is. but over the course of three weeks, all of this has been rolling downhill faster and faster. and then friday night, late friday night, just days before this upcoming hearing about bill barr intervening in the course of justice to try to benefit the president, late friday night, classic friday night news dump, attorney general barr rolls out this absolutely botched effort to try to fire the head of the other most important federal prosecutor's office in the country. he succeeded in decapitating the u.s. attorney's office in d.c. and getting rid of its independence, tak

prosecutor plans to testify that attorney general william barr and his top deputies gave inappropriate orders on cases in an effort to cater to president trump. >> roger was treated differently because of politics. what i heard repeatedly was that this leniency was happening because of stone's relationship to the president, that the acting u.s. attorney for the district of columbia was receiving heavy pressure from the highest levels of the department of justice and that his instructions to us were based on political considerations and i was told that the acting u.s. attorney was giving stone a break because he was afraid of the president of the united states. >> seth: of course they're afraid of the president. look at him. looks like something from a legend they tell kids in a small irish village to make them do their homework "finish your maths, liam, or the fire gollum will climb into the window and eat your hands. he'll eat your hands, liam." looks like something that would pop out at you on an amazon river cruise anaconman. whoo, hoo-hoo! that one deserves an attic high-five. ♪ attic high-five [ clap ] the president subverted the rule of law to g

end of the day, william barr ultimately gets controlled what gets filed out of the southern district of new york in the same way we saw them file this sentencing recommendation for rogers the flynn case, william barr is still the boss of the justice department. until he's removed i don't have any confidence in the justice department. >> i was going to ask you, what can democrats do, if anything? jerry nadler has already said it's a waste of time trying to impeach william barr. do they have any other recourse here? >> i think one thing is just exposing the truth. transparency is very important at any stage of democracy. like today's hearing in front of the house judiciary committee. aaron zelinsky and other colleagues are going to detail some acts of improper influence at the justice department. i think at some point if the facts become too overwhelming and too awful to bear, you could see pressure on william barr to resign. we saw this alberto gonzales in the bush administration when it was exposed that he was improperly firing u.s. attorneys for political reasons. i don't know that william barr has the same sense of shame or decency that alberto gonzales had, but i t

timothy shea who sought a reduction in the roger stone sentencing and reduce the michael flynn case and similarly we see here in the southern district of new york william the opportunity for him to go become the assistant attorney general for the civil division, is what he says in his letter, a very high job. and berman says, no thanks. and then takes this very aggressive bullying tactic of issuing a press release saying that geoffrey berman has stepped down when he hadn't. i say bravo to geoffrey berman for calling him out on it. william barr assumed he would go quietly and he didn't. instead, as a result, although he is fired and he has to go, he was successful in getting his replacement to be a career professional rather than the trump administration's hand-picked person who might do his bidding. >> and that's part of the reason he said he wasn't going to step aside. he wanted to follow the rule of law and proper procedure. i want to pick up on the point of the carrot dangled, if you will. in his letter to berman, it's really quite something. he wrote he had been surprised and disappointed. he hoped his departure could be amicable. you've chosen spe
