with adrienne i still think she is kind of perfect. she is far more forgiving woman than i could be. she is infinitely creative just. this is a woman who really was the damsel in distress saving her nights. she saved lafayette life she risked her own life again, and again, and again. but all of her described her as being without jealousy and of this sort of perfect saintly temperament. you see a little bit of less than saintly temperament peak out and some of her letters. she complains to lafayette at one point when he snagging her about getting back there property she's essentially saying listen buddy i'm doing the best i can. i am walking around france on foot. and you can just sit down, shut up and wait for me to it finish. she said infinitely nicer than i just did. but we see those little teeny peaks of impatience you know there's a real flesh and blood person behind them. so you tease those threads out if you can in the story and with adrienne i might have exaggerated just a little because she probably was a saint. [laughter] on t

and in this case again i started with adrienne lafayette in the 18th century. was a french noblewoman who was involved in the french revolution with her husband and then would go on to leave the enlightenment legacy but of course and i discovered the story of the lafayette legacy is his daughter that comes up generation after generation and i wanted to show that so i needed to know which women were involved in this amazing story. the women that i approach were beatrice chandler is the woman who when world war i purchased lafayette and rented it and repurposed it as a refuge for children. she was a starlet and my research rabbit hole if you want to talk about not knowing when to stop researching, this is one of the few books apparently i stopped too early. i thought i knew the story of beatrice. i she was a whale one —- well-heeled society maven who got involved with philanthropy during world war i and with a troubled marriage somehow survived the war. that is the story i wrote. but then i made a little stop to the new york historical society to tie up if you

adrienne, talk to us about what you're seeing there and what you're being told. is there a plan? >> reporter: the plan is already under way, christi. inside this parking structure behind me, the lower level has been transformed into a covid unit. we want to be clear, covid patients who need critical care treatment won't be seen on that lower level of the parking garage. it is for patients who need minimal care. if you step inside and take a look where you would normally see parked cars, there are 20 hospital beds. this came on the same day the state reported more than 5,000 new covid cases and more than 30 deaths. we heard from a state health official, dr. thomas dobbs. he says the data is showing a troubling trend over the last four days. listen in. >> we reported the largest number of covid cases a day that we ever have. we reported 5,023 cases and 31 deaths today. 166 nursing home outbreaks. when we look at the deaths that we've had over the past four days, i want to do a little bit of a dive. we've lost four healthy people in their 20s, two of whom were pregnant, zero vaccina

cnn's adrienne broaddus is outside of the mississippi hospital in jackson. what are you seeing on the ground right now? how bad is this? >> reporter: well, if you step inside that parking garage behind me and go to the lower level, the space is typically reserved for cars, jim. there are now hospital beds, 20 of them. that area has been transformed into a covid unit. that's where covid patients who need minimal care will receive treatment. next week the hospital is going to convert another section of the garage to treat patients daily, 60 to 100 patients, who need outpatient care. on friday we got some new numbers from the state department of health. more than 5,000 new covid cases and 31 deaths. despite all of this, the state's governor, tate reeves, still refuses to initiate a mask mandate. listen in. >> we're not going to have top down statewide intervention at this time. if you believe -- if you have not been vaccinated, i encourage you if you're going out in public, i would encourage you to wear a mask. >> among those numbers we received yesterday, 31 p

cnn's adrienne broaddus is on the scene for us. what's the latest? >> reporter: that bike behind me is from minnesota. this rider is from tennessee, and this cluster of riders are from nebraska. people come from all over the world. and riders we spoke with say this is an escape from their states with covid restrictions. an estimated 700,000 people are expected to attend despite the pandemic and the rise of the delta variant. health officials are concerned this could be a superspreader. last year the sturgis motorcycle rally was linked to nearly 649 covid cases, including one death in minnesota. the city of sturgis has partnered with the state health department and will administer covid tests for anyone who needs it. wolf? >> all right, adrienne, thank you very much. >>> the surge in louisiana has hospitalization rates there as high as they were a year ago. cnn national correspondent nadia romero is working this part of the story for us. >> reporter: new numbers out for the state of louisiana, and it is more terrible news for people here. more people

thank you so much, adrienne broaddus, appreciate that. so with these new covid cases surging, the cdc is now recommending that some immune compromised people get a third dose of the vaccine. the new guidance applies to organ transplant recipients, people diagnosed with certain cancers and people on certain immune-suppressing prescription medicines. here now to talk about this, cnn medical analyst and author of "lifelines, a doctor's journey in the fight for public health," dr. leana wen. doctor, so good to see you. sadly, i feel like you and so many others made a forecast that this just might be the corner we would be turning yet one more time. so talk to me about what you think the prospect is for particularly the immunocompromised for getting a third shot. >> well, where we are in the country right now, fred, is very, very concerning. i mean we're clearly seeing an additional surge that is much sooner than we might have anticipated. some of us thought we might see a surge come via wintertime but now we're having a surge in the summer wh

adrienne, thanks so much for your reporting. i want to talk more about all of this and many other things. joining me now is dr. jeremy foust, an emergency physician in boston, also the author of "inside medicine newsletter." thank you for coming on. there is also a million things i want to ask you given what we're seeing across the country. i want to start with the motorcycle rally in south dakota. as many as 700,000 people are expected there. the cdc says that last year's event was tied to hundreds of new covid cases. given what we're seeing, how safe is an event like that at this moment? >> thanks for having me and this important conversation. actually, interestingly enough, the delta variant has changed this a lot. i was actually in south dakota right before we began to understand that delta could be transmitted even by people like me who are fully vaccinated. so the vaccine is still working great. it is goin to keep me out of the hospital, but i could still spread it to somebody else. before we knew that, i really felt we we

when adrienne group, as team, has a rough idea to which countries and sectors, the billions should flow, they hire an asset manager. he determines what stocks or bonds to invest in. most of our clients are institutions. what they want is they want their, their money invested in the capital markets. our customers expect their capital to be returned. they want their money back, and they want a return on then kevin growth. there is the return in worldwide income manages 1.2 trillion years of assets. and in germany we're managing for 10900000000000 years of assets, the financial markets. they have a social role in distributing people's savings towards investment and their investment is usually a form of debt. so when you, you take out a loan, for example, to buy a house that learned could end up in a bond. and we could end up buying that bond. so growth is important so that individuals and companies who borrow money in the capital markets can actually pay those lines back. that's pretty true. yeah. but when you, when you turn 20, imagine a world with the euro growth. that's a world in, in w

adrienne, you're a strategist. is that the smart thing to do, smart thing for the speaker to have placed the marker there, that she is not going to have her members -- any of her members take such a hard vote unless both those bills come over to the house? >> look, i am certainly not going to question or challenge anything that speaker pelosi, any of her decision making authority. i think it was smart. and there is no one, jonathan, no one out there who can balance the moderate wing of the party and the progressive wing of the party better than nancy pelosi. we just know that. but i also want to make a point. president biden has literally put forward the most progressive agenda when it comes to the entire build back better agenda plan since f.d.r. child care, paid leave, climate change, all these issues that have to be addressesed, this is something he's been very focused on. he talked a lot about it during the campaign. i think we have to give him a lot of credit for putting forward a very progressive agenda that

and former chief of staff to the dccc adrienne. richard, i'll start with you, because all of this was so foreseen, what was the gain here politically, strategically, geopolitically, geo strategically, what was the gain for the united states? >> absolutely none. what's so interesting, mika, unless i missed it, i didn't notice people voting in 2020 based on afghanistan and where people were going into the streets protested, it was about police and george floyd not the american involvement in afghanistan. so i didn't see the pressure to come out. what's so ironic, when joe biden became president, he inherited a situation in which the united states had a modest investment in afghanistan. we had come down from 100,000 troops to 3,000 troops. our role had been severely circumscribed. there hadn't been a fatally the since february of 2020. so why was it this president and the previous president both felt so compelled to leave afghanistan. that's a big question. what isn't debatable is how we did it. a big part of life is execution and imp
