there's 3000 miles between london and new york and commander-in-chief in new york 3000 miles away. for jermaine and the king was sitting there in london so when you got messages that can take two to three months to go back and forth across the atlantic, it makes it very difficult to coordinate a campaign. especially when you have decision-makers in london and in new york city so that is what leads the major problem trying to courtney these two plans and of course ultimately what happens, we can't get into the details here with the short time we have but ultimately what happens is cross, communications were modeled, misunderstanding should and confusion will take place and basically what happened, they approved the campaign with the understanding once he finishes, he will turn around and move his army of the river to support him and they were going to campaign. which number one is very uncoordinated and confusing. the other thing is, it shows i think, both jermaine and their misunderstanding of what it takes north america especially what it takes to conduct operations in the wildern

the question then is who is working in new york? who are our workers in new york state? the first answer is the jamaican guest worker program. i talk about the bracero program having ended in the 1960s, but this doesn't mean guest workers program ends. in fact, the program morphs. this is a really good book about it "no man's land." it's an excellent book about the history of guest workers in the united states. we still have guest workers working in new york state in large numbers, though increasingly less. this is an article just last month in the "new york times" about these jamaican guest workers. this allows farms in the northeast to recruit non-u.s. labor, okay. and also the idea that the farm has to actually advertise, say there's no american who wants these jobs, and then get the paperwork to bring in the guest workers. many of these workers come back to these same farms over and over again for multiple years. they send much of their money back to jamaica. and the idea is at the end they will not stay in the united states, but they will in fact return to jamaica.

through new york city area. at this point all those people in lower levels, you can see that air conditioner there, probably two feet f water, in the lower level of all those homes. what happened is we had flash flooding. all the streets filled fast. look at how many homes have water in them. talking hundreds of residents there alone effected by that, water over top of the railroad tracks heading to the other side. looks like that's staging spot for police and additional rescue boats driving through the area. that's just one river. the rareton river in new jersey is similar, that will be cresting later today. all these rivers are near all time records, if not all time records, considerable to 1999 with hurricane irene. let me get into the numbers and how mind blowing the situation was. north of philadelphia, they had 6 to 8 inches, that's what fed the river we showed you. newark, 7 inches. we ended up with 5 to 7 inches near boston, too. as far as the hourly total went, this is what made it a horrific event. it

with new york's distance from texas, what can new york do? >> and i find it so heartbreaking to see women who happen to be living in the state of texas who are denied these basic human rights and these are issues that we fought for my entire life as a young woman. my grandmother fought for them and my mother fought for it and i thought by the time my 30 something-year-old daughter would be childbearing age this would be settled and for women in texas, they need to know we'll help you find a way to new york, and right now we're looking intensely to find what resources we can bring to the table to help you have safe transport here and let you know there are providers who will assist you in this time of your need. you are not alone. your sisters and brothers, enlightened brothers in the state of new york will help you in any way we can. >> that story you told about your first pregnancy and how six weeks is just an absurd line to place in any kind of law involving pregnancy, is really striking and it seems it's the kind of thing that governor abb

i want to bring in stephen's sort of, it's in new york, new york, new jersey. he was a supervisory special agent in the new york f b i office on 911 and he responded to the attack. it's really good to have you with us. and i'll just say to so thank you very much indeed. i was doing a quick calculation. if i understand correctly, your office is maybe just 7 blocks away from the twin towers when the attack happened. just talk us through what your memories are of that day. so on that day it was a clear day, it was a tuesday morning, i went to the office that day and.

a new vision of public safety for new york city. a person is beat up, suffered broken rib and is robbed of his wallet. first, his needs are heard and determined and works to develop a service and healing plan. is where it gets crazy. when he's ready he participates in restorative justice circles with the person who harmed them and their respective support systems. he asks questions and get answers and they develop an accountability and consequences plan. how does such a horrible idea even make it out of somebody's head? >> doesn't make sense, they are not even trying to hide it, what people don't understand his victims noticed and even have a voice. fantasy the perpetrator police into the street and to be victimized them and sit down and they've done the worst thing ever ever to them, doesn't make sense, it's got to stop. >> it is getting bad when they are double of that is mayor bill deblasio is attacking the court system for lack of consequences for criminals. our inmates able to run the asylum in new york city when even mayor deb

so it is a no man's land in between british occupied new york. because of this they are unwilling to restore full civil governments to the areas that they occupy. there is military government led by the commanding general of the army. and then the commandant itself responsible for keeping order on the streets. and a group of 1 billion former officials and andrew elliott. and with the chief of police or chief magistrate and he is responsible for the civilian apparatus and with those military offenders and in lodging for the poor and those who cannot afford it based on professional loyalty with adherence to the crown. for the traders and revolutionaries. and to adhere to them coming into the city. and street cleaners and clerks and rent collectors and so forth. so there is a weird civilian administration but it never has the full force of law as long as it is only backed by the military there is the idea it could end at any time. and then the examples of boston and newport and philadelphia and loyalist to collaborate and help the british and that f

here you are mayor of new york. these kinds of weather events, you have to be pretty confident this is not the last one you face. what's the next one going to be, a drought, is it going to be a major storm, is it going to be a hurricane, is it going to be tornadoes? how does a community like yours prepare for that? >> well, i mean, the weather events are becoming more and more severe and more and more often. it's becoming difficult for our infrastructure to withstand this thing. obviously you need resources, or money and folks having property damage. you're going to need help from the government. you're talking about resiliency in the cities like newark and places like that, how to withstand some of these weather events. this is a discussion that needs to happen more frequently, a national discussion that needs to take place because these events are becoming more and more severe and more and more frequent in order for us to save lives in our community and prevent some of this stuff, we're going to have to talk about

the new york times reporting seven people have died from flooding in new york city alone. that is a problem. this, we also have video coming in to us from newark, where the streets have flooded we know that as close to the train station there as a block away, this is from nick kurczewski with video from the streets flooding this has nearly shutdown train service in new jersey. there is, i believe, one line still up and run in the state of new jersey the governor of new jersey has instituted a state of emergency and asked people to please stay home if they can today let's talk about maryland. we know there were a tornado, an ef-3 tornado that touched down we understand there were children on a school bus yesterday. they got caught in flood waters, as you can see here, and rescuers had to go in and get the children out of the school buses. this is the scene we are seeing play out over and over maryland, pennsylvania and around philadelphia and new jersey and new york, connecticut and now massachusetts under tornado watches as well. the scenes of rescue and damage are going t

in pennsylvania, in new jersey, in new york. three northeastern states in large part also just paralyzed. it is really unbelievable. >> it is extraordinary. and you would think that they would do something -- would you think that people would say okay, that enough, we'll raise the money and get this done. if we have to roll back a little bit of the tax cut that people like me got, let's use that money to fix our infrastructure once and for all. of course, if we don't, two years from now we'll have the same broadcast, maybe you'll be on. doing different things and make we'll be doing different things. people talking about peak performance and we should say no more. let's get it fixed and spend the money. by the way, if we fixed this infrastructure that you're talking about, we create millions of good-paying jobs and bring back american manufacturing. let's get to it. much bigger scope than even the infrastructure bill. they look like they're going to pass in washington. that is not enough money to really fix problems like this. a
