after state. the last republican legislation stood up for consumers. last year, the occ issued the true lender rule, overruling voters of both parties and giving a free pass to these abusive rent a bank schemes. the rule was rushed through by the active concontroller who cut his teeth helping banks -- republicans have selected the two of them to be witnesses at today's hearings. the occ and mr. brooks have argued the true lender rule is necessary so the agency has the necessary authority to oversee banks' relationships with lenders but the occ didn't lack any authority when it cracked down in the early 2000s. the occ also attempted to justify its efforts by claiming that it promotes innovation and provides certainty to the markets. the only certainty we need is the certainty that workers and their families will be protected from these exploitive interest rates. the last thing we should be doing is encouraging lenders to in their words, innovate. we just knows that means new ways to get away with r

in the united states. and as we discussed a couple of weeks ago the secretary of state even expounded the nazi records of people like warner von brown and his fellow nazi scientists so that they can work in us intelligence. and warner von braun and his fellow scientists played a key role in the development of the us space program. but refugees also informed our political life. think of henry kissinger. madeleine albright. the german political theorist on a parent. they played a key role but there are others that playeda key role in shaping our political life. they've shaped our cultural life . think of the marlena dietrich, on gary and composer bella bar top, the austrian composer arnold schaumburg and the russian french painter mark chagall. but there are many many other refugees that we could highlight, refugees have always played an important role in the political economic and cultural life of our nation . but public opinion polls tell us that americans were very concerned about refugees. no matter how

dying states. it's really hard to get someone to completely forfeit their culture, because it is part of their identity. so as long as they live, the culture lives. >> yes. i think this is really powerful. they are often vessels of their culture. they are leaving desperate situations where they would have otherwise died physically and perhaps also their community would have died, their culture would have died. so this idea of people leaving dying states, in circumstances of profound dislocation, in trauma, it's really powerful. i think that language of zombies is really powerful because it reminds us of the desperation, the violence, the fear that people leave, that pushes people to migrate. and i think that it's important for us to remember that this violence, that this suffering, that this persecution, that this upheaval, that forced them to migrate doesn't just end there but continues to shape their lives in years to come. he calls attention to the two most important aspects of refugees and what

of the united states. what nation would do this to itself? it is a very strange idea, right. it is a very strange idea to have woven into the fabric of the constitution a system that allows for the indefinite expansion of the nation through space and through the accretion of additional political units that have the power over time to overwhelm the original, the political units, the states that originally made up the country. >> i just have a question about the expansion part. what did, like, france or spain or great britain think of this map? because this is very clearly incorporates territories that they supposedly claim and had claim to in the northwest or in the southwest, down there. >> well, that is right. and it became -- the united states had to worry a lot about the hostility of foreign powers in the early decades of its existence. and even in the territories by then had been ceded by the treaty of paris in 1783, britain continued to -- it never gave up its western posts in the great lakes region a

in the states. who had the power of militia? the power of state militias took control of during war. when it came to the states, they said they wanted full control. the concern of the constitution 1987 and then 70, nine the fed -- there were protections in the constitution to that effect but the second amendment is more or less a reflection of that fear. that isn't to say that the statement have individual right component or it wasn't linked that all to an individual having a gun. the conception of liberty that the founders understood was that you know in order to understand them you have to fight for them. you needed to train for that liberty, that was a understanding of a well regulated militia. the will regulate militias not the same thing as armed citizen. it means well-trained. multiple militia commentators talked about at the time the two most important aspect of militia was training, and have they moved their legs, it was a colonial force of rifles at the time, it was about turning and maneuv

you made this state a better state for the generations that follow and that is undeniable, unusualable and true even in these ugly, crazy times. i thank speaker carl hasty and andrea stewart cousins for their leadership, and let me say this on a personal note, in many ways i see the world through the eyes of my daughters, kaya, mariah and micaela. they are 26, 26, twins and 23. i have lived this experience with and through them. i have sat on the couch with them hearing the ugly accusations for weeks. i have seen the look in their eyes and the expression on their faces, and it hurt. i want my three jewels to know this, my greatest goal is for them to have a better future than the generations of women before them. it is still, in many way, a man's world. it always has been. we have sexism that is culturalized and institutionalized. my daughters have more talent and natural gifts than i ever had. i want to make sure that society allows them to fly as high as their wings will carry them. there should be no assumptions, no stereotypes, no limitations. i want them to know from the bottom of

it went to the states. we were under the impression the states were moving this money out relatively rapidly. for example, if i am in an apartment, if you are in an apartment and you are behind on four or five months rent. let's say your rent is $2000 a month, just making it up. you need $10,000 to catch up. hardly anybody has that. there is money the states have that we can give to the landlord that $10,000. for back rent. the future rent is unlikely -- the hope is -- since they have been made whole to that point that they be inclined because the economy is growing, inclined not to throw someone out in the street, keep that person -- no guarantee, keep that person in the apartment, keep the kids in the same school district and count on being able to have the opportunity for that person who may now be employed to pay their rent. in the meantime, i have asked is there any safety valve we can put in? again, the cdc will announce that and the details of exactly how it works. i told them i want them to take a l

where is the united states -- where is the united states on that. i know you're focus is on the evacuation. the urgent element of that is providing humanitarian aid and since there's quite a bit of uncertainty about the airport as well. you have expressed your commitment to provide the aid. how are you going to do it? has the united states come to that decision that they will have to deal with the taliban because of humanitarian aid reason? >> first, on the issue of recognition, it's not unlike the question of any diplomatic presence going forward. it's something that we are in regular, constant contact with our allies and partners around the world to discuss . it speaks to a unified position on this. >> that mean you're aligned with their position? the. >> a separation question from conferring legitimacy. what i will say is these are questions we're actively discussing with our european partners and well beyond. discuss issues that are tactical and any relationship with the future government of afghanistan will look like. we're not prepared to answ

these employees have served the united states. they have not only worked for us, they have worked with us. they are our colleagues as you heard us say before, our embassies around the world simply could not function without locally employed staff. and we will continue to do everything we can to bring them to safety. with that, matt? >>. >> so before you came out here, your colleague had a number of questions to you. you can thank her that for later, some of which involved the -- some of the numbers you just went through. she gave some of those as well. but there are three things that i want to ask. can you be extremely brief in the answers. the i don't need long answers. do you have numbers after you just given us the asset numbers, do you have numbers or do those include nprs? do you have numbers for remaining siv snz do you have number for p-1, p-2 applicants? and in terms of the broader universe of at risk afghans, do you have numbers for those? secondly, she punted on the idea of a diplomatic presence post august 31st. i presu

trust the state much. i don't, i don't. so it seems to me, you know, the answer to bad speech is always more speak. and if you don't like what facebook is doing, you should say, so this humanity, trump, and i know that you're, you're describe yourself at beam and trump, but he is somebody who is supported by a substantial portion of your population of your fellow in and of itself. not enough to allow him any sort of platform. oh, i might be clear, i do not support twitter and facebook. cutting off donald trump. i happen to lose trump. but i don't, i believe that was wise on their part. they had the right to do it. because their private company, it's the, please understand, i'm not defending their decision to do it. i thought that they had a much better plan in place for that which was whenever trump posted alive, which he did almost every day for them to exercise their speak and say, oh by the way, this is a lie. and by the way, that's what they were doing. and i think that's a much better response than just to cut them off

the idea of states' rights, the states have certain rights. remember, who are the people who have evoked states' rights before? and for what purpose? before the war. yeah, abbey. wait for the mic. make sure the mic is close to you so that everyone can hear your intelligent questions and responses. >> maybe, i mean, before the civil war, it was southern planter politicians evoking states' rights, but that was fundamentally to do with slavery. so some politicians like in the secession of south carolina, in their statement, they evoked states' rights in terms of sovereignty between the states, but now the federal government has like won, that idea can't stand anymore because now they're having to be reintroduced. the federal government has precedent. >> absolutely. very good. that's exactly why states' rights is somewhat discredited, that idea. because first, it had been used to defend slavery by southern states. they didn't want the federal government to interfere with slavery, okay, and second, it was also used to secede from the union. the rig

state laws. amy: new york governor andrew cuomo sexually harassed at least 11 women, touching and kissing them without consent. this according to a damning investigation by attorney general letitia james. cuomo defended himself with a video message. his longtime ally, president biden, and the entire democratic congressional delegation of new york are calling on him to resign. the new york state's sibley plans to draft articles of impeachment. we will speak with state senator julia salazar and the director of the new york working families party. and we go to minnesota where 20 water protectors were brutally arrested asesistancto the peline ctinues. >>oung peoe and alpeople at are fhting r this wor fightingor le. ere nothi moreowerfu. we need to act soon. amy: we will speak with an indigenous lawyer who published photos of herself on social media with bloodied whelps -- welts on her arms after she was shot with rubber bullets by police. the biden administration partially reinstates the eviction mor

the state department has been there. the afghan allies protect act was signed in to lay by president obama. this is not a new problem. the state departments don't talk to each other. the process was 14 steps. there's no government official overseeing this process for years and years. now here we are. i hope everybody heard that. when you think about what you pay in taxes to run the government and they can't function to do paperwork for people that stood by our side, that's a travesty and a failure and people need to be held accountable. thanks, james. good luck every day. we know you're working hard. >> thank you. >> martha: that's "the story" of this monday, august 23, 2021. the story goes on this. is a big story. we'll be on it every day. back here at 3:00 tomorrow. "your world" is started now with neil cavuto. have a great afternoon, everybody. keep these people in your thoughts and your prayers. >> neil: thank you very much. we're monitoring this state department briefing on a day that there's a red line from the tal

i'm look at new york state and we don't know yet whether new york state democrats are ready to do the thing, the thing being impeachment. we're seeing the can sort of kicked down the road right now. we're not fully sure where everybody's going because the reality is this. cuomo's tentacles are long. there are people in the assembly who are directly tied to him. their donors are cuomo's donors and they are one in the same. so cuomo holds that grip over many of them. of course let's talk about seats in play for a second. that remains to be seen. but when you're looking at the new york state of court of appeals for example you see a chief justice, you see people that are cuomo people. are they going to impeach? that's the question. until the speaker calls a vote for impeachment, this is receiving the same treatment that donald trump received from the very republicans who should have been calling him out. >> right, until they do. but i think they are going to call him. that's the point, yes he will make it as painful as possible. but at this point i think they are -- that's my point. they

you know also the use of state health workers like doctors and nurses who work for the state to do vip testing of his family and friends, that is up there too. that is a great point that the congresswoman just made, assemblyman santa barbara. reports are coming in that governor cuomo is trying to cut a deal with top state officials. i don't know if you heard about this but the reports are he is promising not to seek a fourth term. he won't seek to be reelected if impeachment talks are scheduled, if you stop impeachment. have you heard about that? >> that is a report i heard just hours ago, that come in, almost unbelievable that he would now try to make some kind of a deal. impeachment is moving forward. he is it not getting out of it. he is just trying to buy more time. he has been trying to do that all along. he has been trying to stay in office as long as he can. at same time he is using government resources that he asked for that ag investigation, he asked for that report. now he is using a taxpayer-funded website to smear his accusers. they didn't contest anything in the report. th

yesterday and as the secretary of state just stated, we're on track to complete our mission by august 31. obviously there's discussions and the president received a briefing just this morning. as i noted he asked for contingency plans and received a briefing this morning. these are serious issues and discussions happening internally. i notice in addition to the contingency plans that he requested, he also i will reiterate as we stated yesterday that this is all contingent on us achieving our objectives and the continued coordination with the taliban. the president has spoken, i would say to this issue, peter, as you know, you've attended a number of these and he also highlighted the fact that we're closely watching, closely following the threats from isis k which he also received a briefing on. >> his remarks last night, does he think the build back better plan is as sensitive as the evacuation of americans and afghan friendlies from kabul? >> first of all, it's important to the american people that care deeply about whether they will have jobs, whether they're going to have child car

historically, states have been primarily financers of higher education, but state appropriations have declined by nearly 12% per full-time student since 2000, as the states themselves have had to wrestle with medicaid, criminal justice, infrastructure, public health expenditures, among other state priorities, all complicated by the economic recession brought about by the pandemic. today' today's conversation will address hesitates and the federal government can act together to chart a more sustainable future that includes access and affordability throughout the higher-education system. in 2020, there was a higher education task force we established here at the bipartisan policy center that was led by a former congressman and chairman of the house education and labor committee, representatives george miller and buck mckeon. -- representative george miller, recommending an annual $5 billion flux bull matching grant to incentivize estates to invest in higher education. today's event also coincides with the release of a brief by the staff entitled "a moderate approach to free college." th

k, to try to sway to the united states. otherwise, the show on the sway them to extend the deadline to keep their troops in cargo in a bit to turn rescue. yet more people, the united states said they will not be doing that. they've set the deadline the end of august, and they will not be going beyond not, not is suddenly going to mean that some people he would be entitled to leave. who would have the right documentation to get on a flight. they simply are going to be in a flights to get everybody out. it has been said, the entity lincoln said that those people will not be forgotten. what exactly that means in terms of the amount of hope that they will be getting, getting beyond the deadline that is absolutely unclear at this point. but of course, people are desperate to get out. they flocked to the airport another's, made them a target for possible terrorist attack. and that's what we're hearing is half of these new pictures that are coming in. now this appears to be from a news agency that we can confirm the source of the

all statewide offices, state legislature, state senate. the problems existed under a democratic regime. and it has been corrected now under subsequent republican administrations. i'll just offer that and yield back. mr. perlmutter: the gentleman yields back. mr. raskin, you're recognized. mr. raskin: -- mr. perlmutter: if you're there. there you are. mr. raskin: thank you, mr. chairman. i'd like to ask a couple questions. [indiscernible] wasn't there an explicit invitation from the supreme court in shelby county vs. holder to update their precoverage formula for deciding which jurisdiction will be covered under precoverage? mr. nadler: there was indeed. the shelby county decision in 2013 invalidated section 4 which determined which jurisdictions, which states, political subdivisions of states were subject to preclearance under section 5 on the grounds it was out of date. didn't reflect current data. it specifically invited congress to update -- to update it under revised section 4 which is exactly what this bill does. mr. raskin: and all o

state or states passed the first laws and when? >> that's a difficult question. i mean, if you're looking at gun laws it goes back to the colonies, back in the 18th century. you can find or even the early 17th century there's a couple of gun laws in the books. but those laws are basically either about gunpowder storage, where or where you cannot carry a gun, what kind of weapons you could or could not have. how far you could fire away from population, most laws said you couldn't fire or shoot a rifle within a quarter mile of the town. so those were the early gun laws. those evolved mostly into carry laws, and then it was around the mid to late 19th century things really started to become those modern laws you're talking about firearms, dealers, you know, minors, dangerous people, things of that nature that should not have guns. that's really the modern beginning of gun control as we know it. >> which goes directly to your book, can you elaborate how it has evolved over the last 200-plus years? >> yeah, the original right isn't what

but when it came to defending the united states of america, when it came to defending united states of america, each faced different kinds of threats and they stepped up. they were great men. we are now confronted with a bumbling fool in the office of the presidency prove. week incoherent generals. we can incoherent secretary of state and national security advisor. we are in a grave statement now. and our enemies are sharpening their fangs and fingernails. it's a very dangerous time in our country. when i say in our country, i mean domestically with the borders wide open, the push of american marxism in classrooms, a media utterly corrupt and a congress bankrupting us, america if you have not waking up it is about damn time that you do. i will see next time on "life, liberty & levin". >> a poll out today shows america one to withdraw from afghanistan but they disapprove of the way you have handled it also over the last week a majority of americans , i am just the messenger no longer consider you to be competent, focused or ineffective in the job. >> i haven't seen that poll. steve: i b

joseph: by 1787, the colonies have become states. in the constitution, the representatives from south carolina are the most outspoken, georgia goes along with him in virginia is questionable in virginia seems to straddle this the south carolina representatives they basically say if you do not assure us that our form of labor. and note that the word slavery is never mentioned in the constitution. some pressure to do that. but they say that if you don't give us what we are asking for, some protection of our labor source, we are going to leave you. and i don't think they were bluffing. then you have to play the tape and what would happen if they decided to present them with that. i think likely to make a proposal and he was persuaded to do it because it was considered to politically risky proposal was to say, the time being, we the south states of the deep south who are dependent upon slave labor, and they were georgia inset panel and especially, 60 percent of the nation south carolina african-american 60. we will rarely recognize right

just two states, florida and texas. they account for one third of all new covid-19 cases in the entire country. just two states. look, we need leadership from everyone. if some governors are not willing to do the right thing, then they should allow businesses and universities who want to do the right thing, to be able to do it. i say to these governors, please help. if you're not going to help, at least get out of the way of the people trying to do the right thing. use your power to save lives. i've made it our first and top priority to have a vaccine available for every single american the day i got elected. that was my priority. let me be clear. we have a supply for every single american. that will never change. at the same time it's also in our national interests to share some of our vaccines with the world. which gets me to the second thing i want to discuss today. i've been very clear-eyed we need to attack this globally, not just as home, because it's in america's self-interest to do so. the virus knows no boundar

this is the only time the united states, particularly the president of the united states, has not only acknowledged drone strikes killed civilians, but apologized for it. and the reason why it is such a significant moment in its singularity is both in the book and for an earlier series i did for the guardian in 2016, i interviewed people, pakistanis and yemenis principally, who were survivors of drone strikes or his relatives were killed in drone strikes. one of the stories i tell in "reign of terror" is from a young pakistani man who was 13 years old when obama launched his first drone strike and it blew up the compound where he lived with his family. they were gathering for a celebration of one of his relatives who had just returned from excessive ask for -- successful business trip most of 40 years later, he woke from his coma. he had burns over most of his body. he was missing and i. he had learned that most of his family's breadwinners have been killed in the strike so that when he left the hospital, his responsibilities would immediately be providing for his family however it was

i left state and joined the smithsonian. and i stayed at the smithsonian for longer than i worked for nasa, for about six years. our mantra at nasa when i was there was, a man on the moon by the end of the decade. then i had a similar mantra at the state department. museum on the mall by the bicentennial. that was our deadline. lo and behold, we opened on july 1st of our 200th year. i enjoyed that time as well. >> wonderful. thank you. [ applause ] >> thank you. thank you. >> now i'm going to welcome out the other panelists to join you. i'm going to welcome the other panelists to join you. >> certainly. >> remain comfortable there. i will welcome them on stage. you can come and take your seats. [ applause ] >> hello, john. how are you? good to see you. >> this conversation will be moderated by dr. john logston. he founded the space policy institute and is an emeritus professor at george washington university. joining him with major general charlie bolden -- charles bolden, u.s. science envoy for space and former nasa adminis

there is means to do that in these states. seven states have taken the steps. more states can take the steps. they have the funding they need. go ahead. >> thank you. we heard reports that refugees from afghanistan landing at dulles airport and sitting on airplanes for hours at a time. something that the white house is aware of? dhs is sort of taking the lead but what diseaoes the white hou think about this? >> we are working to improve the conditions for people coming to the country but i think the important context here is why that and that's because the security vetting process is so thorough that as people are vetted before they come and go through a background check before they come we have multiple layers of check and a confirmation on landing and that is to check the manifest and in a limited number of cases we have vetting processes that may be unresolved. very limited and may lead to at times a delay in an individual's being held on the plane so that we can have that process seen through. now of course ensuring that people are treated humanely coming t

there are fewer states in the highest growth category, more states growing slowly, and three states, west virginia, mississippi, and illinois along with puerto rico declining. most states in the west continue to be in the highest growth category. this is no longer true for the south. six states in the south had moderate growth. three were in the slowest growth, and two had population declines. in all three decades, the fastest growing states have been in the south or west with generally slower growth for states in the northeast and midwest. a notable exception is north dakota, which was up 15.8% in one of the fastest growing states. i will replay the three decades again so you can see the changes over time. let's look at counties. we will start with this map, showing population density in counties. the counties shaded darkest pet pipe elation densities of 1000 or more people per square mile. those in the lightest head densities of less than 50 per square mile. this is a reminder that the u.s. population continues to be unevenly distributed across the land area, with high population d

they are sort of dog whistling to the state and that's something we need people in the states to push back against the legislatures and say you know what, not here, not now. we talk about what's been happening with the voting rights and how they really dug in. a. >> i think the other piece of that is when it was overturned, kc was overturned and the matter goes back to the states, some will ban abortion, others won't and it won't be like the situation in 1973 where they had to turn to back alley practitioners because of the availability of medical abortion, but medical abortion, which can operate in many respects is people healing could be liable to lawsuit by that's going to be much more difficult to obtain. one of their conditions we make is that women shouldn't be liable for either helping other people getting abortions are getting them themselves but we would like to see more medicating and that means we need to give information to those women. it means we need to get help for them, financial resources to travel, et cetera and that is all in possible of the states adopted laws lik

so after all of that and after the secretary of state or the acting secretary of state in pennsylvania discouraged those counties from participating, senator mastriano was removed from his position. and now the top republican in the senate said that he too now backs this audit. and that was a big step because that means that it will happen. so hearings are going to begin this week in the state senate. what we don't know is the scope of this. we don't know who will be conducting it. we don't know what counties they're going to look at. but the one thing when i reached out to senator corman's office, they did confirm that they will leave this open-ended. this will go on as long as they see fit. the exact quote was we will not put a hard cap on this and they said they would follow the investigation and whatever information comes out of that as far as it goes. so what we kind of see is the potential for one of these long-winded and partisan and probably problematic in terms of its process audits, forensic audits, even though they're really not an audit. we'll call them a partisan election

but also it is just kind of an example of how racism in the united states worked. and it builds on itself read and if you not after slavery, will may be you have just blew up because of the massacre and nobody knew pretty have to start over again. and even if you do that, what is going to happen when something else comes or what's going to happen and it's almost impossible to escape. so basically i think oklahoma is a great study. and there is a need for it. rose: thank you and the sort of ties me into another question that we got in the chat about the aftermath of these allotments. so after three people were given these allotments with able to make that land you know as you talk about, multiple other. they come up. other black owners today they can have that land go back. alaina: guess my family still has a land allotment and they're still at least one of they are still there and it's kind of funny because now there like 40 people like several generations. yes, there are many families like that in oklahoma. but, unfortunately there were kind of guards put in place

we keep talking about united states, united states, united states, the mood in the united states now is get the heck out of afghanistan and leave it to its own devices. and it is going to be very, very difficult, no matter how wise people and the biting and administration have ideas for yes, it would be in the best interest reunited to help stabilize that they're going to have to overcome severe domestic resistance. and i don't see the path forward for the taliban, stabilizing the country. to be that easy. this morning i saw a video made by mohammed moore, who is a charging warlord, who fled to afghanistan. when i think with missouri, she refill nice words. and he is singing, we'll fight our resistance will continue. and then he says, only if we, well, if we are going to enter the power equation, are we willing to play ball with the taliban? and he said where we won't become slaves to be outside hers. and i want his phrase, we will not go to others tables for decoration, we want to be a partner in power. so i don't see that the taliban being able to, to stabilize the country that eas

he was secretary of war, he served the united states congress also served united states senate. he was a host during the james buchanan administration in washington. when the southwest formed their own government they invited jefferson davis to become his first and only president. jefferson davis would accept that invitation and become the president of the confederate states of america. we are standing in the cell or jefferson davis was held at the conclusion of the american civil war. 1965 jefferson davis received word from general robert e lee the commander they will hold the federal army back from attacking the city of virginia. with that news, jefferson davis directed his cabinet, and sent his family on the road for protection. jefferson davis soon after that would follow. he would finally catch up with his family right above the florida state line. it was here where the federal mounted unit was able to capture him and his family. jefferson davis was placed on a boat and moved back appear to fort monroe and incarcerated in this very cell. some people ask why, the main reason

state. we use ports and railroads to move products. we use rail and air to connect with family and friends and other business associates around the world. we use broadband connectivity to facilitate transactions of both personal and business. infrastructure is foundational to our way of life, and it's the constitutional responsibility of the federal government to facilitate interstate commerce including the movement of goods and services along our highways and waterways and railways. rural states like north dakota know this better than most. it is literally the geographical center of the confident. t armed landlocked and rely on it for structure to get where we need to go and move products we produce to where they need to get. our example, north dakota is the top producer of durum wheat which gets ground into flour and becomes the main ingredient in pasta. it goes from the field to a grain elevator by a farm road, to a mill by rail, a processing plant by boat, then it goes anywhere from a gr

and state department. and the 2nd one of these that was meant corporate media in the united states. yes, he was lying saying that he was a reporter asked them hey, your own intelligence community is saying the taliban is going to overrun the government in afghanistan as what he said. they didn't come back in just one course they did. we know that we have the papers, so yes, he's cut, joe biden is a pathological liar. it was a pathological liar before he ran for president. he had to drop out the 1st time he ran for being caught being a pathological buyer. so yes, he's been lying about that sort of course, they'll never lose their facebook or twitter account. i mean, meaning joe biden, meaning the defense department. they have a twitter account ever facebook, but they'll never, ever lose those for be for using mis information or spewing misinformation which they're doing on the regular. well, they all will be denying it what goes through their minds. then in d. c, the foreign policy, think tanks, the politic

i've asked him to do a state of emergency. unfortunately there's been a void in leadership in this state. we have taken that mantle and had daily reporting numbers as they become available from the cdc. we are still lagging behind on information to the people. until the time that we change the messaging here in this state that the severity of what is happening with this delta variant, we know it is increasing as far as transmission. so we have to be taking this seriously. until the time that our governor steps up to the plate and does right by the people of our state and tell them how severe this is, encouraging people to get the vaccine -- i am running for governor of the state of florida, but i never expected to start the job now. we're doing the governor's job for him because he is absent. >> the governor is barring school districts from imposing mask mandates. today he was asked about cases in florida involving six children who are hospitalized with this inflammatory illness. >> you're blaming the kids because they weren't

state laws. the independent investigation found that governor cuomo sexually harassed multiple women, many of whom were young women, by engaging in unwanted groping, kisses, hugging, and by making inappropriate comments. further, the governor and his senior team took actions to retaliate against at least one former employee for coming forward with her story, her truth. governor cuomo's administration fostered a toxic workplace that enabled harassment and created a hostile work environment where staffers did not feel comfortable coming forward with complaints about sexual harassment due to a climate of fear and given the power dynamics. the investigators found that governor cuomo's actions and those of the executive chamber violated multiple state and federal laws, as well as the executive chamber's own written policies. this investigation has revealed conduct that corrodes the very fabric and character of our state government and shines light on injustice that can be present at the highest levels

it is not state the state. so, but you know, would be, if you look at some of the reactions in western media, this is, this is just giving the russians another chance to commit aggression and they chose weakness on the west part. i mean, there's a bunch of mental misunderstanding of this story. here and unfortunately it's just feeling the worst possible fear mongering that we've been experiencing, particularly in the last 5 years. you're no, i agree. i think there's a big misunderstanding around it again pertaining to russia weapon for example, it's quite extreme again, you want to also have to keep in mind that the point that was a german initiative because they want to increase their energy security in order to in order to make sure that their, their industries remain competitive. energy security so much defined as reliable and cheap supply of energy. that's what the russians offer. so this was a deal between the russian and german company. and then the extent to which states was the see, there is also an int

another doctor said that last week the state was on the brink of the states hospital system failing. a reporter today asked him to give an update on that to let people know if that was still the case. this is what he said. >> in the systems of care right now, there are, across the state, makeshift icus, icu patients in hallways, icu patients being held in yards. patients on high flow oxygen and other invasive devices. in terms of the state of the hospital system, we're standing in a garage with field hospitals. i think that speaks to itself. health care in mississippi is not good right now, in terms of what we can do, just from the point of being able to care for the patients, we as physicians would expect to care for them in that way. these are not ideal situations. but, this is not something that we've ever dealt with before. or making the best use of the resources that have been given to us. people want to know how they can help, go get a vaccine. i hear people all the time say they want to do the research about the vaccine, well i think you should do research about what it would

its president asked for aid from the united states. in the first application of the eisenhower doctrine, the president dispatched u.s. marines to beirut despite strong russian protests. the presence of the marines quickly restored order. when an acceptable plan was adopted in the united nations guaranteeing the integrity of lebanon, american troops were withdrawn in favor of a u.n. force. a simmering international problem came to a head in 1958 when the red forces came to a head in 1958 when islands were bombed by the republic of china. the united states's seventh fleet prepared for action, though america's allies opposed intervention. the president of the republic of china was persuaded by the secretary of state to not invade the mainland. the shelling dwindled to a stop leaving the china conflict unresolved. in cuba, several rebel factions united to fight for the overthrow of dictator batista. during the revolt, the american naval base at cuba was reinforced as a precautionary measure but the united states maintained a hands off poli

governor newsom has declared a state of emergency. and now those living in nearby communities are worried that they, too could be next. let's get to reporter jennifer mcgraw who is live for us in greenville tonight with more. jennifer. >> that video is heartbreaking in the aftirmath is just devastating for hundreds of people in thousands on the brink who are still evacuated. good news, though, today, firefighters are getting the upper hand got smoke that you see out in the mountains that was supposed to lift, which would have meant we would have had some wind earlier, but the aircraft could have gotten in there. the aircraft could not fly too much smoke. they're hoping, however, cooler temperatures. stick around and that people could get back home. >> flames all along the ridge of several communities have homeowners and ranchers desperately hoping for a break. i'm very worried today. >> because that fire could come down right behind their house. even under mandatory evacuation orders jill simon says she and so many others can't leave

let's listen in... hear from the us secretary of state. let's listen in. . .- state. let's listen in... who worked around-the-clock i state. let's listen in... mir? worked around—the—clock and around the world to co—ordinate the operation. they volunteered for duty in kabul. they threw doing iflew to for duty in kabul. they threw doing i flew to transit countries to help process thousands of afghans for deployed points of entry in american bases to welcome afghans to the new homes. they staffed a 20 for seven task force here in washington overseen by deputy secretary. and they built a list of americans, possibly seeking to leave afghanistan then worked to contact every single one of them repeatedly. making 50,000 calls sending 33,000 e—mails since august 1a. they solved problem after problem to keep the mission moving forward. they did this because for thousands in the state department and usaid employees who served in afghanistan over the past 30 years this evacuation operation was very personal. many work hand—in—hand for years with afghan partners with

the secretary of state, antony blinken, vowing the united states will continue its commitment to americans who still want to leave. >> we believe there are still a small number of americans -- under 200, and likely closer to 100 -- who remain in afghanistan and want to leave. we're trying to determine exactly how many. our commitment to them and to all americans in afghanistan and everywhere in the world continues. >> and the pentagon acknowledging none of those americans made it to the airport and onto the final five flights out of kabul. although, they say that they were prepared to bring them onboard until the very last minute. i'm going to talk to one of those americans left behind tonight. well, that as celebratory gunfire rang out in kabul after the last u.s. c-17 lifted off from the airport. taliban fighters entering a hangar examining a chinook helicopter. cent com says some military equipment was removed from afghanistan and other items were disabled. the u.s. military calling this the largest noncombatant evacuation in history. u.s. and coalition aircraft combined to evacuate mor

go back into states' rights in terms of voting in the united states? this is as fundamental as it can get, and the heroes of this movement, like we give heroes of the '60s when i was a kid and some unborn, the heroes of this movement has to say to those texas democrats that stood and did not waver. you know, in the church we have a scripture that says the race isn't given to the swift or the strong, but those that hold out to the end. we are going to be honoring the holdouts because they're the stand-ups for democracy. >> well, erin, i mean we spend a lot of time with the texas democrats because they are doing something that is in really short order in washington. they were uncomfortable. they left small children. they left family members in the middle of a pandemic. they deprived republicans of a quorum to stop something they believed would be terrible for the state and anti-democratic. i have asked you this over and over again, but i wonder if you see any increased interest in getting uncomfortable among senate democrats? >> well, you know, look, the

but immediately the information got to the united states. they blame the nypd the new york police force for doing this. and mi five felt that. when the trial came out there should have been two key witnesses. one was this guy i mentioned who had become an fbi informant gave them a lot of information. the other key witness was meant to be jesse jordan, jesse jordan have been trading secrets for the british and she was in prison the americans thought maybe she could be released giving testimony at the trial in new york. the mi five is not keen on this. he said the district attorney from and gave his daughter a holiday in paris. he traveled to scotland to contribute jesse jordan think he could take back the statement. but the scottish legal authorities proved to be very difficult. is it typical scottish manner he had to pay all the expenses and they said no no. they were not able to utilize that evidence at all. so the cooperation from mi five was real but it was contained as it were he was limited. on the main trial it came into the heavy duri

the country and the state. things are rapidly moving in the wrong direction and we have seen these terrible, radical, leftist ideas started in intellectual circles in being pushed into our culture for entertainment, media, and the ruling elite. they do not -- these are not values we share, or that americans have asked for. they are being imposed on us. how did we get here? well, we all remember all of the bad things that happened in 2020 how about blm? forcing law enforcement officers to watch what the media and our ruling elite did to our law enforcement was so shocking and unconscionable. as you all set in your living rooms and watched, there was virtually no dissent from the dangerous and false notions it needs to be transformed and defunded. predictable without leads to. what kid wants to be accosted at? so law enforcement is sending out -- they have no support from our leaders. and crime is spiking all over america. a big shock there, right? this is all under the overhang of covid last year where the elite

secretary of state. the secretary of state shall develop and implement policies and programs to provide for the safe and efficient evaluation of united states government personnel, defendants, and private -- dependents, and private united states citizens when their lives are endangered. such policies include identifying high-risk areas were evaluation may be necessary. ladies and gentlemen, afghanistan was one of those areas where evacuation was necessary. and even last week we were told by the secretary that no american who wants to leave will be left behind, and yet we know that over 100 americans who wanted to leave were left behind. this is the responsibility of the secretary of state. the secretary of state utterly failed in his duties to develop and implement an effective, safe, and efficient evacuation plan, you must be allocable. he has to be--and he has to be held accountable. he has to be healthy, but because russia, china, north korea, iran at this moment imminently threaten our allies, and we
