the republican party controlled state government in the state of wisconsin. and they drew what consider to be one of the most severe gerrymander orders in american history. and as a result of the republican party has control of around about two thirds of the seats in wisconsin state legislature for the entirety of the last decade. and in that decade, there were two elections where the democrats won the popular vote overall in the state of wisconsin. and yet the republicans maintained control of two thirds of the seats and. that's what gerrymandering can do, can render essentially an entire state no longer meaningfully a democracy. an entire decade. another consequence of that is after the most recent census. yes. who was control? in control? redistricting again in wisconsin. it was the same republicans who had gerrymandered it a decade ago. and that's what really concerns me moving forward that gerrymandering is not just going to be something that allows politicians to put their thumbs on the scale for a couple of elections. it's going to be something that a

is this going to go state-by-state? >> yes, it will. it is going to basically be modeled on not only state-by-state, but locality by locality. in many cases, these county level or even state-level actions have been consolidated together in courts, but there also individual actions that have been brought by states, brought by counties against -- in this case, let's say, the pharmacies. it is going to be a fire they are fighting on any number of fronts that will pop up, as i mentioned earlier, all going to be determined not so much by their actions -- it is sort of hard for them to defend their actions when they're all of these photographs of people lined up outside pharmacies to fill prescriptions or there are these very damaging internal emails within the pharmacies that have come out where executives or sales reps are licking their chops over the thousands or tens of thousands of pain pills that are being prescribed in an area. it is very much going to be a function of the particular wording of these local laws and the determination by

arrest out of state doctors who are following their own state laws. today each and every one of my colleagues has the opportunity to make clear where they stand. they did that in kansas last night. they were able to vote. now let's have a real vote on this. not stop the vote. actually get it done. and i see my friend, senator blumenthal, who has been such a leader on this issue out of the state of connecticut is here as well as senator padilla. i yield the floor. thank you, mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from connecticut. mr. blumenthal: first, thank you to my colleague and friend from the great state of minnesota for her being such a steadfast champion of this issue over so many years and such an articulate and eloquent spokesman and i'm proud to join her and other colleagues as we have done week after week since the dobbs decision, trying to protect a woman's right to decide when and whether to have children. a woman's basic control over her own body, a woman's freedom that the dobbs decision stripped away and put in the hands of

health care for women who live in states where abortions where are being banned in that state executive order, make sure health care providers comply with federal laws and women don't face delays or denials of medically necessary care. and this executive order advances research and data collection to evaluate the impact of this reproductive health crisis that's having on maternal health and other health conditions and outcomes. this executive order builds on the first one i signed last month that created this task force in the first place and that also will help safeguard access to health care, including the right to choose and contraception, promote safety and security of clinics, patients and providers protect patients privacy and access to accurate information. let me close this beyond the actions you're taking. i know that along with kamala, many of you have been traveling the country listening to women healthcare providers, legal experts, state and local officials and legislators and others so that we are doing all we can in my administration to protect the rights of health and saf

states. and if you look in the back, this is supposed to be an african-american student cleaning the windows. an indigenous student sitting at the back of the class and this is supposed to be representing a chinese student. we are already into exclusion of chinese immigration. so that's what it's referring to. this will sum it up what we'll talk about in this classroom. colonialism, so mason can you tell us what it is >> when the power uses the lesser power's resources to enrich the greater power. >> so nations that engage in colonialism are empires and that's what we're talking about today. last class we also talked about progressivism. we talked it as a movement to solve problems. what i'm talking about today is happening simultaneous to this. ok. simultaneous. so this is part of that progressive movement we were talking about and you'll see some of the same people we talked about last class. so these are presidents we're going to mention in this class and i listed them out here so you can

i considered to be illegitimate, nuclear weapons states they're calling nuclear states, possess the states, but not too big. so even with their electric on, you know, you're trying to control power and as to what it means to these countries. i believe that, you know, increase like is right. for example, there is hardly any conference that i have on your residence in which, you know, it drives invisible. nobody talks about his eyes, you can read and nobody talks about, you know, what you're shopping, the lease from achieving and nuclear and treason. very all the other countries on board, except for right now you're backing it. and also with this idea that, you know, one country was there, thing you get written has a different sense of rationality as compared to the b 5 who have as it, you know, they really be more rational their years. and these images are actually outside the be irrational when i do that, the ones from where do you think that stem from this idea that you know, the pin 5 would take rational decisions. * and, you know, other nations would not, where does that come from? so i

around the state. i would love to hear how your system works. mr. aguilar: nevada has 17 counties. you have reno and las vegas. we have one county in nevada right now which the county commission determined to go to paper ballots. you go, wha the heck are we doing? how did they make this decision? esmeralda county, which has 300 voters, it took eight hours to count. they do that entirely by paper, hand counting. how are they going to ensure accuracy and efficiency? you talk about my race which we are viewing as a margin race. we are going have to work are butts off. when you have 15,000 of those 30,000 voters determining the outcome of my race, this is a scary situation and we need to educate the public of the importance of accuracy, efficiency, timing. it could take days for those 31,000 ballots to be counted. the secretary of state's office is determining the regulations for what that looks like. we need to continue to watch what we are doing in this county. it goes back to challenges of, what do the

yes sir, this will be rolling through the states through kind of all the states. there are few democratic says here where he said this is not going to happen. there won't be any referendum. and they are democratically controlled by democrats, of course. but you can assure our can assure the deep south of the united states as well as other west midwest states will have that same procedure, maybe not a, a vote constituent, but conservative politicians trying to change the law. busy and push this through their legislature. looking ahead to november, the mid term elections president biden gave a prediction. we'll take a listen, come back to you. what is a case in a partisan at this law, the american people go to preserve, protect, and write, and refuse to let them be routed to way by tish and my administration has their back. 7 simons, that does the president have a point? is this likely to be an issue? it's got to be an issue, a 100 percent guarantee it, it has to be an issue and he is why? because the democrats actually hoping that it will working on that it becomes

she is not shown the example of states all great politicians in the united states. she really represents the barcode side serving sides of the u. s. politician. and she does not care about the fundamental interest on the people in taiwan. because people in taiwan to have peace and they want to have eventual reification with charles mainland. this is the mega trends journal, and that is the policy doesn't care. the people on both sides of the taiwan straits . all chinese people and the u. s. government fully acknowledged that there is only one china and how one is part of china and the people's republic of china is the sold exhibits. government represent the polity of the chinese people. mr. guy, i can jump in just a moment here you making some a very interesting commentary. what when you were referred to in nancy pelosi and her husband, i think your phone's allegations of possible inside a traitor. but, but that, that's a story that we don't have time for today. it's a big potential story too. but when you talk about politicians lining their pockets, so to speak. an

on _ state-wide. yes, that was state-wide. on that - state-wide. yes, that was i state-wide. on that issue of state—wide. on that issue of abortion within kansas, i take your wider point about the primary races across the country. but on this issue of abortion within kansas, i think for the republican party the issue is driven by a small minority, a very wealthy minority. i wonder whether that republican part of the gop look at this result in think, hang on, when it comes to the congressional races in autumn, in november we can't take things for granted if people get a campaign on this issue. the granted if people get a campaign on this issue. ., . granted if people get a campaign on this issue. .. , ., , , this issue. the fact is, and this is a fact, this issue. the fact is, and this is a fact. the _ this issue. the fact is, and this is a fact, the abortion _ this issue. the fact is, and this is a fact, the abortion issue - this issue. the fact is, and this is a fact, the abortion issue is - this issue. the fact is, and this is a fact, the abortion issue is the i a fact, t

mm ah ah, need to come to russian's state full narrative. i've started on the north lansky with within the 55 with will ben in the european union, the kremlin media machine, the state on russia today and c, r t sport. even our video agency, roughly all brand on youtube, with with crane shell, the hospital in dorn. yes. wanting to civilians in cording, according to local officials. i made the annual 50 day festivities that china says it's military. it's on high alert and ready to react to fresh us publications. i've been taiwan about the washington, those 2 of its warships near the disputed island. latest armed clashes between rival militia group and libya claim dozens of lives in the country, struggles to maintain stability, 11 years, often nato helps couple in the market don't think they're made. does a good.

just look from state to state. this governor is not going to be around long. he has a couple more months and then he is gone, and we have fantastic new leadership. we are going to have a new u.s. senator who is going to stop all of this craziness out of joe biden. it is going to be morning in nevada again, and you are going to be the reason, because you went out there and saved the republic. you so much. say yes, start talking to people, and be happy. god bless you. you have a wonderful day. you for inviting me. >> ladies and gentlemen -- ♪ >> good morning everyone, what a great day we have. thank you for coming out here to support adam and joe as they work to turn the state aroundfou today. conservative leadership matters. we see it at the state level, we see it at the national level. folks, we have been here before. some of you are probably old enough to remember 1980. a failed credit president. recession. soaring inflation. gas prices. same with the grocery store. we had a country that was not respected around the world. sound familiar? and then what happ

if you're going to talk about the us you would say these united states these united states. that sounds so weird to our ears, doesn't it? so when did these united states which she was used? well into the late 19th century. when did that become the united states? how did you get one country out of these various countries that were, you know various states? now it's important to remember apropos of this that and as we talk about the us constitution. that when the car that the united states has had two lives. i realize it's very easy to forget about the first life because it was pretty short. the first life of the united states was from roughly 1776 to roughly 1788 89. period of a decade and more that's when we were a confederation. then the united states change this government had a second life and it became a federation a federal republic and that's a really key distinction because when the country first started the we say the country but actually the states. all felt very different from one another. yes, they spoke the same language sorta kinda depending whether you're a ver

state secretary of states live that everywhere. we are guardians of the democratic process, we make decisions daily that are geared towards increasing the security of our process and the accessibility of it. that is why i wanted this job. you will find my stories not that different from my colleague in new mexico, who similarly was an election administrator who wanted to do her job to make sure elections are safe for all. and the tens of thousands election workers around the country can share that story. i am proud to stand among these individuals, many on the local level, who face threats without security detail but who are the true heroes of our democracy. >> i commend the secretary of the elections new mexico. i am out of time, thank you. >> thank you. >> senator padilla has been going back and forth between our two hearings. he can go first. >> senator padilla. >> thank you, mr. chair. this was the continuation of the rules committee hearing happening today as well. for six years, this committee is heard me say time and again,

it just can't be on the state of arizona. >> what states are you specifically talking about? what states are the problem and what is the problem? is it the legislature? is it the governors? >> upper basin states are utah, new mexico, colorado. so far arizona is the only one to put -- make a significant offer to leave additional water. i'm not talking about the 21% cut. i'm talking about additional water up in lake mead. we need other states to step up. specifically, california gets a large portion of the water from the colorado river. it just can't be on us. this is also about food security for our entire nation. if yuma county doesn't have the water it needs to grow produce, then that means that, you know, those products are going to be more expensive across the entire country. >> i want to ask you about your republican opponent in the upcoming arizona senate election. he says democrats want to, quote, change the demographics of the country. he's openly embraced donald trump's election lies. he's supported the racist individuals. the arizona republican nominee for governor s

, a little problems with the united states. now we are enemies precisely because the united states to give it upon itself to change the world by military means and make it far more dangerous that it wasn't the beginning. now actually world war 2 is an important one. and again, it shows that russia and the united states can work together, and maybe one day we can get back to that, although i don't think it's going to occur while mr. brewton is the president. but i do think that even in the post cold war era, we have seen number one, the it states and nato go into ball into the balkans and stop ethnic conflict there . there hasn't been any bloodshed in that region since the end of the dissolution of yugoslavia. and the united states has in many respects, helped to bring down and fight extremism, who led the counter eyesore campaign. the united states. that's a war that worked at the benefit of russia. again, has the united states made mistakes? yes. but has it succeeded in largely taking down the islamic state and al qaeda? yes.

blue state. not a red -- not a red state. so, i would say, look, we can't predict the future. but are democrats in arizona that like the outcomes some of those hope for the outcomes in a lot of cases because these are easier to beat. mainstream republicans do not despair. donald trump will take a victory lap in a lot of the races. then if we're right about the way this could very well play out this could turn out to be victory for donald trump because a lot of these candidates are weak candidates and democrats have a strong hand to play in arizona in the fall. >>> well, we've got much more to get into from last night's huge primary. three of the night's winners will join us. plus, one of the key issues at least in the republican primaries was the 2020 election itself. in just a few hour, the senate rules committee will hold a hearing on reforming the electoral count act. the chair of that committee senator amy klobuchar will be here. >>> and up next, it was an emotional night on capitol hill, aft

, it's not an attempt to break down the wall between synagogue and state, or between mosque and state. it's a very specific attempt to re-frame the nation itself as a kind of default christian state, and be upfront about that. this is not talking about freedom of religion, but the privacy of one religious doctrine. >> did it surprise you that they were so explicit in there so restraining about originalism, and release a picture of antonin scalia. i wonder if a surprise do it all. >> it's not surprising, because we saw this kind of assault began in the kind of the middle of the trump years, where people began trying to frame any kind of anti racist trainings that people were doing in the department of justice, in the various institutions, to try to frame them as ideological indoctrination, and that created a rationale to do the opposite, a kind of counter indoctrination, so those almost always especially the manifold lives around what critical race theory is, it was opening the door for exactly this type of thing. >> we have so much more to talk to you about on this, we're gonna have m

me, me, me and my state. joe manchin is getting promises to get permits and utilize energy expertise in west virginia. kyrsten sinema is agreeing because she's getting what her donors wanted, that is no tax of carried interest. it is incredible to me they can say yes to a package that will impact the entire country just because they are getting what they want for their own state and their own donors, but that is what is going on. we all saw similar situation around the chips bill, number of republicans and congressmen said i will buy into it if my state gets something, let's get money to some industries, a lot of money going to the semiconductor industry, donors again. the senators are signing on to this more stimulus knowing the stimulus because they are getting something specific to their state and donorings and that's unfortunate. >> maria, thank you for being with us, big news and your expertise is appreciated. beijing is tightening its grip on taiwan circling the island with war planes and missiles after

. >> you miss the states and the states create this. it is the people the whole country. >> in some way it more or less with the league of friendship which is the treaty as gordon calls it in the articles of confederation created the league of friendship here were 13 sovereign states and legs together. but if you go back to the document i keep hammering on the letter of the states washington says we need a central government that is the final say in everything that is common to all of us. common to all the states which wouldn't be slavery or education. you can think of things that it wouldn't be. it wouldn't be international and interstate commerce he makes that clear. he also says in the circular letters this is indivisible. once you join you can't get out. he said that the circular letter of 1783. we need a central government, one sure and it's a one-way ranch it. by saying that commerce and many people argue it wasn't just taxation. the certainly everybody would agree even the antifederalists would agree they needed more power to imp

and there were people in the united states that are doing that. and china could play a role by helping russia and fight edition that's coming from the united states. and there were some people who are arguing that good policy policy is actually causing difficulties between russia and china. and when i listen to lincoln, i realize that they are actually making a decision of putting pressure on china at the same time, i think russia, which is, i don't think it's a video my decision, but american officials are also not making my decisions in the past. and the result is that, i think the chinese realize that if americans succeed in this campaign against russia, china is going to be next. and that's very important. now, on the other hand, there was, the situation with russia were creating more emphasis. emphasis there seems to be for the resumption of the iranian nuclear talk. they're in motion again and while i understand what's in it with americans, doctoral iran is a large oil producer and we already mentioned b, you know, the discontent of bad amer

andy 131 -- and the 131 installations and states -- in states that are restricting abortions. with that information, it might provide additional motivation for the congress, particularly our committees to provide the necessary support that women need. thank you so very much. i yield back. >> the gentleman yields back. the gentlewoman from texas, ms. garcia, is recognized for five minutes. >> welcome, mr. secretary. great to see you. i always remember you as part of our freshman class. we had some good times and now you are on to greener pastures. thank you for your presentation. for us, we know our brave service members have defended our freedoms and as elected members of congress, it is up to us to defend theirs. for women service members, that means the freedom to decide their own health care decisions. my question is sort of a broader question -- i visited some installations, different branches, including more air force since my family is more air force than anything else. it has always struck me that the services that are provided to service members at the different instal

and the big lie candidates like finch will take the secretary offices in key swing states states. is it hyperbole, exaggeration to say that the 2022 could end up being the last fully free and fair election for the u.s.? given that they will not allow democrats to win in 2024, they will not allow a free and fair election in 2024, are they? >> i think that is overstated. i think it has to be on our minds, and we have to be vigilant. obviously, these are just primaries, these are not general elections. a number of these extreme candidates will be defeated. but we saw in kansas suggests that the abortion matter is going to weigh very strongly in voters minds. you have people like this woman in michigan, i think, who name i forget right now. dixon. she is opposed to any exceptions for abortion, except for the life of the mother. so she would not allow for exceptions for rape or incest. those kinds of candidates are going to be more vulnerable in general election matchups. i doubt and no one in my alarm about the state of our democracy. but i am not at that point yet of slitting our thr

yes, raising concerns in taiwan, in the united states and the united states in turn has responded to this by doubling down on deterrence. what you have on both sides is a heavy emphasis on worst-case outcomes, very little real communication about taiwan and were taiwan status lies in how you can stabilize the country. yet this posturing going on and positioning going on between both sides. it is not serving the interest of taiwan at all. juan: if i can ask brian following up on the iue of the rest of the world not taking to account the aspirations of the taiwanese people, if the taiwan is people do wish -- taiwanese people do wish and if it is from china, is it the responsibility of the united states to defend taiwan's viewpoints? why should the usb the country that is constantly the policeman of where democracy is expressed in the world? >> it hasn't been. now in the present taiwan is [indiscernible] or raise the stakes for negotiations very visible under donald trump. now the present view from americans, we should fork over taiwan to china, that this is the way to keep peace. what

the best i can do is help the united states. they really don't have a military strike option to get to the right. they know it would have done a long time ago. they had it. so all israel really should do is to support the united states in any way possible to make sure that iran and the rest of the will come to an agreement in terms of your program. ok moment. does that, does iran have a plan b if this deal is not revived? but 1st of all, i'd like to say that he runs off position to israel. if i could talk position to apartheid, south africa, you run once this system, this racist regime to n, like open the whole bay, but we will, we do have many times there, please that the nuclear dale. well, the iranians, if the united states at this point when both the european and the rhyme, you are saying that the ball is in the us court. if the americans are not reasonable, you run, it will continue to expand their piece from nuclear program. and also we are closing in on winter, the weather is going to get very cold in europe, the european

in this state? we have people dying in this state every day from fentanyl overdoses, people being trafficked, sold by the cartels. i challenged the media the other day and said there is almost no stories being written about fentanyl overdoses and deaths, and one of the media outlets have the audacity to respond with the one story that has been written in the last 18 months. i had to live -- laugh. was that only worth one story, with all the toll that has taken? how about afghanistan? the biggest foreign policy disaster in at least a generation if not in our history. those of us who served in iraq and have brothers and sisters who served in afghanistan, for it to end that way was the most shocking example of leadership failure we have seen in a long time. when i was in the military, if a captain ran a ship aground, relieved of command, even if some e2 that was 19 years old screwed up. that's captain was gone. as a person been held accountable for the disastrous afghanistan withdrawal? general milley,

united states, they follow the. ready rules and as others do under all weather suge the purposes of the united states, the completely disregarded the rules when they find it necessary to override the rules. therefore it is very arbitrary. it is not very objective and it cannot be in this, in the world. the previous will probably united nations charger as in that sense, states reading this stop it's killed, always use false to impose its will on the others and then they. ready will not this further moment before long chill war if you look around at the cases dennis iraq to miss and further and further in korea which. ready was at the end of the 2nd world war. therefore, it is time to urge united states to practice responsibility and humanity. the says itself out as the world, as if it is it is it will come to the other the world while the be through is july real world. every country below small need to be respected. there has been talks now for some time on the possibility of the u . s. deploying nuclear weapons in t

and i think off of the united states and the united states, you know, can, and does routinely negotiate for the release. so you know, america, whether it was with the government of iran, back in the 92 again, prisoner exchanges with the former soviet union form. so again, i think it just comes down to, you know, the circle track record is there, they're capable of doing it. the only question is they have the will be doing so now today paul, right found a prison legal news dot org website. thanks so much for joining us. thank you very much for the of the show. the moscow has slammed poland decision to shut down the russian exhibition at the outfits book and the museum saying that another attempt to raise the memory of the sacrifice so that people made in world war 2. i'll transfer canal is a former nazi death camp in southern poland, where over a 1000000 people were killed june the wall. the red army liberated the site which became one of the main symbols of the holocaust brushes. museum with a patriotic war, used to maintain a permanent exhibition on the site, but also has not refused t

the united states is not only assisting iran and venezuela, but the united states is creating an economic crisis at home. so saudi arabia obviously benefits, and we don't know where this will take saudi arabia. but whatever land we look at this situation, it is the americans and europeans that lose as the digital world faces and acute shortage of semi conducted ships, russia is set to become one of the key suppliers of ne, on a gas used in digital and medical devices that is currently deficit with moscow set to launch new production facilities. as rachel blevins reports, global shortage of semiconductor chips has impacted industries across the board from smartphones to cars to medical devices. at a time when the world is more digital and demand is higher than ever before, however much moscow state technical university is hoping to change that with a facility dedicated to drastically increasing the production of purified me on. we've new new production, we are going to achieve 5 percent of work production may be in the next year. and the bowen, money universe, to allow us to do this. we've

and the united states is absolutely essential. that's the kind of bigger strategic shift i would like to see. but i don't see any evidence that that's happening right now. instead, you're seeing just the usual reflective, you know, invoking of all of the familiar tropes of transatlantic solidarity and nato is all important. and the united states has to be the 1st responder in every corner of the world. i don't think that's necessary. i even, i don't think it's feasible any longer. you speak the groups all around the world, and i think one of the interesting questions out there, we talk about the revival of nato. and you know how our all for one and one for all and stronger than ever and focused on, you know, it's like history is come back again. but after january 6, domestic instability, the rise of white supremacist violence in the united states. i'm just wondering how solvent our allies think our commitments bar, how solvent is our promise to be with them and their dark days when they see how internally divided the united states

and we want that congress of the united states to be part of that initiative. of course, as the west coast person, we see that pacific as they're, you know, that they're their home, we're part of that as well. so you can see there, she's almost shrugging it off as if it's no big deal. she's just going to say more of the pacific ocean, and yet we look at all of the ramping of the engines that we're seeing between the u. s. and china right now. that makes you wonder if she truly realizes the impact of this visit. that let's take the politicians rhetoric out of the equation for now . rachel, what's the general view in america regarding this whole thing? yeah, there seem to be more questions than answers as to why polos is embarking on a trip like this, right? with everything that's going on in the u. s. right now with the american people who have repeatedly said that they're concerned about skyrocketing gas prices, about inflation. but all of the issues they have going on at home. they're wondering why the speaker of the house is making a trip like this and why sh

we have to decide in this country, state by state, secretary of states office by secretary of state's office which side we'll be on. we're a beacon usually for the world of democracy. if we falter, that's really -- >> well the guy who started the big lie, carlos, donald trump, still teasing he's going to run for the republican party nomination. do you think -- his results and how successful he was with his endorsements, with candidates who support the big lie sending the cautionary message to any republican who has been seriously thinking about running against him >>well, chris, i think that headline after last night is a little bit intimidating when you dig into the numbers, though, some of these races were quite close. the arizona race is close. it seems that, you know, lake, trump's candidate, will prevail. in michigan, they did the race that was fairly close. it looks like in washington state dan will survive their primaries, of course. those two voted for impeachment. when you dig into the numbers, you're starting to see that continued erosion of donald trump's dominance in the r

ah, what you was taken by the united states were invaded in order for the united states to control per harbor. because of hawaii's location, it's central central in the central pacific. so there's a central location that ships enter. hawaii ports after disarming refurbish, leave coined ports, re arm and go back fighting a metaphor who it was engaged in b, y island by money, by greed. and so he with the lease and we represent all the things that was happening in $189.93. so what we see rising out of the land out of the ocean are these giant monsters that are asked to read with documentation of allocation of documentation that basically saying we're right is what we are. we're the inevitable truth. and their absence was also again that the high saying that from the newspapers that was being never ca, we've developed an unusual a view of the world because of our location. we have huge oceans and a couple of weak neighbors in mexico and canada. therefore, we've never had to have a foreign policy of clear co operation with others. we've been able because of our power to impose our will on o

but when the united states stepped up to help, there was only really so much that the united states could do. changing these societies, changing the political parameters in these countries, is really up to the people within these countries. as an i point out my book faust on those people who rose up ford, demanding rights and democracy. they were up against very, very powerful forces who were determined not to allow them to succeed. was very little that the united states could do in order to prevent that from happening. all that being said, and ever since president trump came to office, the united states has evinced very, very little official interest in supporting those voices around the region that want to live in were democratic and open countries. president biden spoke very forcefully about american values during his campaign in the early stages of his administration. but it's been mostly rhetorical. the administration has been precious little on the question, even just basic human rights. if you look at the repression that people are forced to endure around the region and how basical

he had no trust of the british and fact saw the british has penetrating much of the united states. state department intelligence agencies, academic institutions, all to more or less influence the united states and government and academia, to being much more in the line with the british. atlanta assist agenda ah, ah, the united states thinks war is war, but business is business. in return for help and in exchange, buffalo global one destroy is the u. s. demands the right to use 8 british military bases in the atlantic. ah, we didn't receive anything from the u. s. that we didn't painful. in 1940 alone. 15 pays the united states for and a half $1000000.00 in cash, a huge amount of money at the time. when roosevelt down to the u. k, his ability to pay he sends a cruise at the cape town where 50000000 pounds of british gold reserves are stored . in desperation, chance you'll rise to roosevelt. in the midst of war, great britain is close to bankruptcy. roosevelt seized no benefits in britain's defeat. after which the us would run the risk of facing war to double cri, doman. liam leaves a de s

a conservative state. and you know, it could be anywhere between a couple of months or years for you to go through the whole process, even if you are exonerated. so you are going through the expense, the emotional toll, the integrity. it is really scary, these are things they've already done before roe is overturned. >> you could be overturned just for the sake of telling someone, where to go, where to get here. >> doctor, as a doctor, you experienced this all of the time, you are always afraid of being sued for something, now there's a whole different category of things to be afraid of being sued for. >> i already know that the state can legally take action against me, because they have. my license cost about $120, 000, to get back in legal fees. >> what happened that caused the state to revoke your license? >> i moved to alabama. >> sorry, i should not laugh, but it is really true. >> some physician i did not know, never met, never interacted with because it was my first day of school, 12 days after i am

over the state. in rochester he campaigns and says i think one of the most depressing oppressing things i have to do on occasion in this state is visit the county pour house. somehow it just tears my heart to see these old men and women there more than anything. i know we need to drastic revision of the poor laws and i propose to recommend it. so he was already thinking in his platform. there was a movement the townsend movement for old age pensions, and he's already thinking about it. his his campaigning and he says to the press no movies of me getting out of the machine boys. okay, and they obliged the media he had to be carried up a fire escape into a meeting hall and jimmy his son who came back from another trip to europe with granny to help in the campaign came close to tears again when he saw his father being lifted like a sack of potatoes. these were not scenes that the public saws, you know, very few people knew the difficulty that he had getting in and out of cars and wheelchairs and so fort

so nearly all states. established a silence and institutions for disabled people and the mid 19th century. other institutions were established to schools and asylums for those described as blind deaf and dumb as well as those with intellectual impairments were established also institutions for people convicted of crimes right more prisons were built as well as more alm sauces those for those who are poor or who receive state aid, and we're going to talk more on thursday in in this class about this impulse this institution building impulse in the early national period and this desire to fix or treat disability in conjunction with other seeming social problems. okay, i might pause just for one minute or two for some more questions. i don't know if anyone has anything burning here. okay, great. let's keep going then. so the final part of my lecture today is focused on how disabled people resisted. so remember i argued that our nation is rooted and ableism, but i also suggested that it is rooted in disability

state wide? in the previous big meeting, the department of environment talked about the major changes to tackle climate change. and the green building code. what you will see is basically for charging spaces state wide will be an increase in the number of ev capable ev ready parking spaces required in addition of 2 even install ev chargers for the parking spaces. what it means on photo [inaudible] panels on the roof. previously, the state did not require new residential construction to install pv panels. now almost all residential construction will require pv panels and also mostly all new nonresidential construction as well. slides are out of order. can we go to slide 4, please? slide 4, please. another thing you will see state wide and nationally is the new term or the new definition for efficiency dwelling unit this is an effort to tackle the housing crisis. they defined that an efficiency dwelling unit needs to be within a living a single room. they reduced the size of the dwelling unit from

state policies. there's no national momentum for, especially even with even if we retain that, even if democrats retain the senate and it's a narrow, a much more narrow majority in the house, there's this is a 50 year strategy. we're back to rebuilding this from a federal level level. and so there's a lot of work being done to figure out the eyes for -- that ties for republican candidates right now, two different aspects of different personal aspects, business foibles missteps, all that kind of stuff. and also tying that to their votes on abortion rates in this country. i just think that kansas was a great example of community based organizing, community based. i mean it was so under the radar, if people, if any political prognosticator had said that that was going to turn out that way, i would have just said you have no idea. because it was under the radar, it was locally driven. it probably means that we have 50 state policies, um 50 state ballot initiatives and we are going to have this fight now
