henry clay. he was a man -- not a handsome man, everybody says he was ugly. they always commented about his large mouth. they said his mouth was so large he couldn't spit properly. he was a man who liked the ladies, as they said and somebody at the time said he could kiss them out of one side of his mouth while he was resting out of the other side of his mouth. but as soon as he opened the mouth a great oratory came out. he could charm you. he had that charisma that if there was a person of the opposite party that one time came to henry clay's home and to a party that clay was doing and it was a room filled with people, a room bigger than this and the man said to this man from the other party, he said "wouldn't you like to meet the famous mr. clay? " and this democrat said about the whig clay "no, sir, no, sir, i do not choose to subject myself to the spell of his fascination." because he knew that henry clay would suck him into his orbit if he just met henry clay because he had that personality,

henry clay. he was a man -- not a handsome man, everybody says he was ugly. they always commented about his large mouth. they said his mouth was so large that he couldn't spit properly. he was a man who liked the ladies, as they said, and somebody at the time said he could kiss them out of one side of his mouth while he was resting out of the other side of his mouth. but as soon as he opened that mouth, a great oratory came out. he could charm you. he had that charisma that if there was a person of the opposite party that one time came to henry clay's home and to a party that clay was doing and it was a room filled with people, a room bigger than this and the man said to this man from the other party, he said "wouldn't you like to meet the famous mr. clay?" and this democrat said about the whig clay "no, sir, no, sir, i do not choose to subject myself to the spell of his fascination." because he knew that henry clay would suck him into his orbit if he just met henry clay because he had that perso

he knew that henry clay would suck him into his orbit if he just henry clay. he had that charisma and charm that anybody who would meet him would like him. >> do you know was this just a genetic gift or did he school himself to be an orator, did he have a mentor? >> he worked at it. he heard patrick henry speak in virginia and he was just amazed by the force of henry's oratory and he wanted to be like that. he worked at it. he talks about giving speeches to the cows in the field as practice. he came to kentucky as a lawyer, he almost had to convince your juries through this force of your words, not necessarily through the law itself in frontier state like that. he developed it and it was almost a self-made orator too because over time it was something he could turn on a minute, and speak on the issues. he was impossible to challenge clay in a debate, he would get up on the spur of the moment, and come up with all the facts and all the figures and win the argument. john c. calhoun once prepared a talk for two weeks, and clay got up and demolished it instantly.

he heard patrick henry speak? shirj shirj and he was henry's oratory and he talks about giving speeches to the cows and the field as practice and you almost had to convince the juries through the force of your words. so he developed it, but he was almost a self-made orator, too, because over time it was something that he could turn on a minute and speak on the issues. he was impossible to challenge clay in a debate because he would get up on the spur of the moment and come up with all of the facts and figures and win the argument. john calhoun once prepared to talk for two weeks and clay got up and demolished it within instantly and that's the kind of man that clay was and had he been able to appear on television, he could have been a really effective politician. at that time, you didn't campaign for president. there was no radio, so you had that force of the oratory was less and only in congress would you have the full force of that. >> when we've been talking with historians and people here in ashland about him

what is henry ford up to today? if you worship henry ford and you think the big cities are suspicious anyway you don't care what the new york times says in the editorial or the chicago tribune. but when your local paper carries a "new york times" wire service story about where the vagabonds camped last night and this wonderful thing that happened that was amazing that you just have to read about, they had to run those stories, too. the big media in many ways looked down on them, but had no choice. they still had to cover them. susan: here's another bit of film. this one is the combination of henry ford and naturalist burroughs, and it looks like they were having a tree chopping contest. [laughter] you can talk over this because it is silent of course. jeff: this is 1920, john burroughs is very sick. there was a business slump so the vagabonds were not going to go out on the trip at all, but they needed to show the have faith in the business community. they went to a place only rich people went, this is the only time

henry the sixth. you have any iv bowling work takes the throne, he lives until he dies of natural causes. henry the fifth, his son succeeds him and is very effective king but dies very young. his young son henry the sixth, succeeds. and is a disaster. he is a, -- it's interesting it's how shakespeare presents him. he presents him as a very good man. one of the three parts of henry the sixth is sometimes subtitled or titled, the history of good king henry the sixth. at one point, when margaret says you should be pope rather than king. because as good as he is, he can't make difficult decisions. and things fall apart. there's a rebellion in england, and the french take back a lot of the land that henry the fifth one. in this with the french, joan of arc is a very important and attractive character as she leads the french in taking back land in france that henry the fifth had taken. check? >> i apologize i came in light you might have address this, if you haven't i'm sure the audience would be interested

you got "henry henry iv, bollin takes the throne. henry v is a very effective king but dies very young. his son, henry vi, succeeds and is a disaster. it's interesting the way shakespeare presents him because his historical support of him is a very good man. it's sometimes titled "the history of good king henry vi." but at one point queen margaret says, you should be pope rather than king. because good as he is, he can't make difficult decisions and things fall apart. there's a rebellion in england and the french take back a lot of the land that henry v won. and in this with the french, joan of arc is a very important and attractive character as she leads the french in taking back land in france that henry v had taken. chuck? >> i apologize, i came in late. you might have addressed this, but if you haven't, i'm sure the audience would be interested in knowing how someone would find out how often shakespeare gets alluded to or quoted in the congressional register, any other notes of debates. how do you go about -- it can't be just a s

henry, your chance to respond... but you might call it a nonstory, but there's a very interesting undercurrent there because, as you say, germany is the chairman or the president of the council at the moment, and this cancellation of this particular agenda item isn't as innocuous as you might think, digby, because comes you might think, digby, because co m es after you might think, digby, because comes after mrs merkel and president macron met at macron‘s presidential mansion down by the riviera just a few days ago, and so i think that the decision to remove the item came asa the decision to remove the item came as a result of the conversation the two of them had, in which they said, you know what? actually, we probably are going to go down to the wire here, let's not give them anything, and if it means that we call their bluff and we do end up with a no—deal brexit, let's prepare for it. i understand michael gove here in the uk government is preparing for a no—deal brexit and the europeans are doing the same.

so of course, here's young henry on the left. goes to his father as a paid secretary. marries there to serve as her mother's companion. and she's young, she's 16, 17, 18 in england and she's bored and she's lonely and it never occurs to charles francis senior to hire a companion for eight or hire a tutor her age but again, her mother's idea issue only the lifelong companion have unmarried child and a centrist, the age of 32 she does marry cousin. doctor kerry quincy. and her father is so thrilled, they get married in a big house and charles francis is back and he gives her away. and her mother is just so distraught because this is going to be my companion and of course mary moves five, six miles down the road so to california. again, her job is to be a companion. then of course here's young peter, he goes by brooks adams. the on youngest child,clearly has what we now define as add . he can still, when his son five is funny, he literally shrinks, screams, jumps around and charles said in his diary is never going to go to harvard read this is not going to gowell but he d

henry? 0k. complaining about keir starmer profiting from what the scientists have said today is like complaining about the wind, digby. it is notjust keir starmer unlearned by this, scientists are alarmed, a lot of commentators in the newspapers, how many people died today? i remember people saying just three weeks ago the average number of deaths is only seven, only ten, only 30 for supper last week it was only 30 for supper last week it was only 70, now it is 143. next we could be 200. where do we draw the line and say the local lockdowns or attem pts line and say the local lockdowns or attempts at mitigation aren't necessarily working, we need to do something that envelops the whole country? i understand what you're saying about some of the northern cities and communities and it is not just communities in brantford or leicester which a lot of are pointing out which is home to a lot of the asian or minority communities. it is poor white communities. it is poor white communities and in the nort

jonathan: henry? henry: i was very let down by the president's speech. he did many of the things he needed to do to excite the republican base. but he did it in a time-space that was about twice as much as he should have. the sheer length of the speech will weaken its impact among the republican base. and he also needed to reach beyond the republican base. 43% of america makes you a millionaire in the private sector but makes you a loser in politics. that is where president trump has continued to balance himself, messaging to a minority base. there were some overtures in the beginning the who set -- when he said democrats and independents and whoever stands with this cause, but he needed to speak much more to them than to the base. and the speech was very uneven. it would've benefited from an editor who said every second word goes. [laughter] it would have benefited from a genuine wordsmith who could have with those words around he meant imagery that stuck in the imagination. both those things were lacking. consequently, the convention before trump was m

henry gets there in time. saying goodbye to his sister she is buried in the english cemetery in florence. and it's uncapped and overgrown. in this one time he actually lost her gray. he fell over. so in fact the grave is about 10 feet away but this is her stone my wife has really skinny hands so you can see it says louisa adams. she dies young because of that. henry of course famously mary's marion hooper known to her mother as Ãbthere's a lot about this in the book and other books and the one fourth-generation adams to give a fair amount of press. and marion is a great photographer but not a great beauty. i know that because henry writes to a friend and says i think you will like her. he said she talks a little bit too much and he says we can fix it. so note to photograph here it's impossible to find a photograph of hope are looking at the camera she does not have a portrait painted. he does not go out of his way to tell his wife that she is lovely which one should. then he thinks elizabeth sherman cameron t

henry immediately saw that and henry would have said yes anyway because his motto was serving the national interest. as someone who analyzed foreign policy in history all his life, and i am sure he left at the chance to do something about it in terms of policy. he had been advisor to jfk and consulted with johnson and other presidents. these are the main motives and that is what brought them together. it is in the foreward to the book. he looks at the world in a long-term trend that takes into account the impact you have in one country and does not just react and lead your faction to discrete events, but tied them together. it was clear they each shared a strategic worldview which was probably a major reason nixon chose, as well as the others, and why kissinger was happy to join him. they brought different strengths. nixon as a congressman and vice president, then as a private citizen, had traveled the world extensively and new many leaders, studied foreign policy, and was the best prepared president ever for foreign policy. kissinger's strength was historical, philosophical, strategic, co

i want to know, since we talked about henry winston this evening, henry winston story does not stop in the 1960s, it moves forward and henry winston in 1973 was the driving force behind an organization called the national anti-imperialist movement and solidarity. and they helped to lead the domestic movement against the part-time south africa, there was another communist, shirley mitchell who helped find political repression, and thought forward for freedom for political prisoners throughout the 70s and 80s and i said the idea communist ceased to be a political force in the 60s, 70s and 80s was not only false but it does not square with historical record, there is so much evidence that documents the role of communist post-1956 but it is a disservice to the historical record but since we live in a capitalist society we would expect otherwise. other questions and comments? >> congratulations. it's an impressive -- a lot of pages in a hundred pages of notes two. so you spent a lot of time researching this. still about 350 pages, i am curious, it seems that you have a lot of stuff packed i

henry clay looks jackson and says, well ... i never thought i would say this, andrew, but thank you. jackson goes, oh clay. . okay. i'm not done cases, you're not dumb? what do you mean? what else is there? jackson says there is one of the thing, the bank. clay looks at him, the bank? it's funny you mention that andrew because i was thinking that maybe we go ahead and recharge this monica little early. we don't need to wait at the last moment. it's 1832, let's get going. let's re-charter this bank. you are on board with that right mister president? jackson. i, andrew jackson are going to take this bank down. henry clay cannot top it. you are mad. we jackson says, no, you are mad. we i can't believe you are doing this. jackson looks at clay, weekly, how many times are you gonna run for president? how? two times? three times? four times? five times? how many times as a guy lose before he realizes that he can't win. you can't win, clay. i can't believe this is going on, you are bluffing. i'm not bluffing, i am not bluffing. i'm go

well, henry clay inherited slaves and henry clay lived in a society, he lived in kentucky which was a slave state where this was the way work got done. but he believed that slavery was bad for slaves. no surprise there. he believed that slavery was bad for slave holders. he believed that slavery demeaned manual labor and he believed it would be worse than the problem. it was going to be a continued peril to the union. and he tried again and again to get kentucky to end slavery. but he didn't win. he didn't win the argument. yet, he continued to work against slavery even as he worked to hold the union together. henry slay had to make this decision. it's a fundamental question for anybody who lives in a democratic political system. it's really a question of anybody who lives in a community. what do you do when you believe that your community, your country, your state is doing something fundamentally wrong, it might be simply misguided, it could be down right evil, what do you do? do you sort of throw up my hand and say i have no responsibility for this and -- not if you believe there's

i am with henry. i completely agree with him, a lot of stories that you believe in don't believe but the mood music which is where henry is going about getting the nation into a state where they will accept a vaccine and get vaccinated where there will be a degree of responsibility called for at christmas time, what they don't wa nt at christmas time, what they don't want to be accused of, this is not government, this is a lot of different sorts of party to this, shoveling the deck chairs out on the titanic. they don't want to be at the point where what they are doing is arguing about a little thing here are the big ship of state is heading off to the rocks. they have to make sure that the rocks don't increase in the army. and that they don't

henry clay cannot believe it. you are mad, henry clay says. can't believe you're doing this. how many times you going to run for president clay? two times, three times, five times? how many times he going to lose before you realize you can't win? you are bluffing, clay says. " i'm going to take this bank down if it is the last thing i do, believe me." clay does not believe jackson. congress is in an uproar. should we side with clay? should we side with jackson? should the bank be rechartered? the number one issue on everyone's mind. and jackson had enemies. not just clay. the president of the bank himself, nicholas biddle. a man who really could not be more opposite from andrew jackson. they shared some things in common. they were determined, stubborn, bullheaded. biddle was extremely well-educated. jackson did not have a college education. the only president in our history except in george washington who did not have a college education. biddle, at age 10, admitted into the university of pennsylvania. age 10. five years later, biddle transfers to princeton university. at age

joining her tonight is henry fountain. henry is a writer who covers explaining the innovations needed to overcome it. for ten years he wrote about research finding from across the world of science and observatory, a weekly column in science times. the author of the great quake about the 1964 alaskan earthquake and with that i'll turn the screen over to our speakers. he enjoy the talk. >> thank you. hi. great to be here. i want to thank romans and henry for being here. i'm excited about this event. i live not far from vroman but i'm living in a virtual world but it's my favorite book store and henry is one of my favorite reporters and i -- when i -- the title of my book came to me one day and i told henry that i had not consciously rifted awe of this become title but it's possible it was in my subconscious and bubbled out but i encourage everybody if you're interested in earthquakes and good science book, check out both the great quake and the great quake debate. his book is a lot of fun focuses on the 1964 earthquake in al

this three men are three john henry clay, and daniel webster and henry someone else. henry clay accomplished never accomplished a feat never got accomplish before and never repeated. he became speaker of the house, the me how most powerful person in the house of representatives in his very very first day. he was that impressive. he essentially created the role of speaker of the we essentially house, a role that is very important to this day. henry clay henry clay was from kentucky, he was born in was from that as a young virginia but as fire after a young aspiring lawyer, after getting his training in getting decided virginia, he decided that he would have better prospects as as a lawyer by moving to kentucky which had originally had been the western a which province of virginia. he set up shop are shot in lexington and he went into politics politics young at a very young age. this was also what young ambitious young mandate. traction like there was an attraction of doing this in kentucky because kentucky was in the state, i was writing a new constitution, it was elec

i'm asking you to comment on henry kissinger. i will refer to some of the things in the book, but it will be open-ended. the book is very short. it is very accessible and really interesting. i would recommend the best thing to do is to buy it and read it. you cannot go wrong. appropriate you're at the library because the nixon foundation played a part in the genesis of these interviews. ambassador lord: i have been .oing around the country nothing else compares with this one in relevance. library andxon museum and this is about the nixon-kitchekissinger policy. 38 hoursmself conducted of interviews with president nixon. wasto mention the fact he in the white house when i was. thirdly, the foundation has been absolutely crucial and i am delighted hugh hewitt was the new president. did several.s we first were panels on the key and then we did when interview to reflect back on these events. he was 93 when he did the interview. we barely touched the transcript. what you read here would be extraordinary for a 30-year-old talking about

henry, thank you. lucian struck when i look at all the papers that there are not any pictures of dominic raab on the front page. it was interesting to see that statement that dominic raab delivered. it was just before 10pm i think. clearly, the most important minute for minute and a half of his public life. the focus, even as people hope the prime minister gets better, the focus will be on this stand in, potentially acting prime minister. your thoughts? well, i think henry has given an excellent privacy of his recent back on. i think it's interesting how his ability to marshal some of his cabinet colleagues, some of whom might indeed feel a little bitjealous or rivalrous of the fact that he is taking that top roll. in recent days, we have heard reports tensions bubbling over the surface the treasury and the health department. ina way, treasury and the health department. in a way, that's natural, because there is a serious policy tension here between the health service, which the department of health an

henry ford first and foremost, henry ford said i don't think government is having enough success running itself. a lot of people felt the way he did. the first thing he had to do when he created this arsenal was find people who were going to help him and that was not an easy task. the first person he called upon was the president of general motors? extremely famous at the time, the president of general motors, the first person who brought him down to washington, we need to take these assembly lines and create this arsenal. >> host: a prominent and interesting character in the book is the be 24 liberator bomber, gigantic plane that at the time it was made with the fastest, most powerful, carried the most bombs, four engine plane, it got off on the wrong foot, those who produced it started from scratch, the story of willow run. >> willow run was created literally overnight. ford tried to create the biggest factory under one roof anywhere in the world and one fascinating fact, if you drive to detroit, you can see it and it is there. and and in an open field, and tried to have the biggest fa

henry clay was from kentucky. he was born in virginia, but as a young, aspiring lawyer, after getting his training in virginia, he decided to he would have better prospects as a lawyer by moving west to kentucky, which originally had been the western province of virginia. and he set up shop in lexington, and he went into politics at a fairly young age. this is also what ambitious young men did. and there was an attraction of doing it in a place like kentucky because kentucky was a new state, it was writing a new constitution, it was electing new members to congress, electing new senators. one of the main reasons that people went west was the professions they were interested in was crowded in the east. it would have been hard to break into politics in boston or new york. but you go out to kentucky and everybody else is new, so you can get a start as well. so this is henry clay. john calhoun was from south carolina. john calhoun, like clay, was a lawyer. he was born in south carolina. he was educated at yale. he wen

henry was. henry. if henry didn't want to... this is getting silly, stop it right now! this idea that we are talking about vaccine, it's such good news and we would love to have a normal situation. it's not going to be in time for christmas. borisjohnson boris johnson trying borisjohnson trying to let the country have some sort of normality. the figures are saying potentially, not necessarily going in the same way. let me take you four years, maybe three and a half years from now. if you have a crystal ball, yes. the one thing, i don't need a crystal ball for it, is to promise you that if there is a lockdown at christmas, there will be up... it won't talk about all the things about vaccination delivery and track and trace, you won't talk about that at all. but what it will talk about, boris, the man who cancelled christmas. and that is a prime ministerial election nightmare, and so ministerial election nightmare, and so what it will do now is anything. even a mass of lockdown injanuary. he'll do anything so that the r rate is below one as we go into christmas, he then l

what he didn't give henry? a question will come back next few minutes to get the last story i wanted get in. henry you set us up on this one it is the tailspin. it was bad that he was going to vice president for eight years that barack obama but he did very poorly in iowa. he did poorly as well and in hampshire. in fa ct poorly as well and in hampshire. in fact so badly he left and went down to suck a lot diverse african—american community bear, and south carolina, will save him. he has very few of them against it looks as though his presidential bid, could be doomed. it begs two questions here. if they could measure but it's always wet, in the early days on both public and democratic sides follow the money. when the donations come into play? that tends to get the momentum when you get the people find a way to mainstream accounting. i didn't donations are going off a cliff. people are thinking they might not like a lizard —— it fact a loser. that doesn't necessarily mean sanders will win. i'm not the kind

we fired ed henry. there was an independent investigation, conducted by an outside law firm and says that the areu's complaints are utterly devoid of any merit. basically, what fox news says is you have a problem with ed henry, go to court and we have nothing to do with this. there are some who say her claims are not as strong so we will see in this case moves forward. but listen to what kathy areu said in an interview about the environment at fox news, about her interactions with the male anchors. >> i kind of got numb to it. i thought it was perfectly fine to receive pornographic images and gifts. i thought that was normal for a male anchor to do. >> to send pornographic images? they sent you pornographic images? >> yep. >> brian, i remember four years ago back in 2016 when you interviewed me about things that went on with roger ailes and you asked me then, is fox just rot on the core? and i said something like no, it's not rotten to the core. i'd like to amend my answer now if i may. because given ev

william henry harrison. and while to be safe, we're also going to put on harrison's ticket a democrat. a democrat who was very critical of jackson. john tyler, who's a virginia planter, and he was a jeffersonian, but he thought that jackson was too king like. so we'll throw a democrat on there. that's going to make this a safe, moderate ticket. no problem here. and they were right. look at that landslide for the whigs. the whigs overwhelmingly win the election. not only that, but the whigs for the first time control the house, control the senate, control the presidency. henry clay, rubbing his hands. hays ready to go. william henry harrison delivers his inauguration speech. a storm comes through washington, d.c., pouring down rain. during the speech, in that rain, william henry harrison, 68 years old, comes down with pneumonia and dies one month later. unbelievable, clay says. now john tyler is president, totally not what we planned, clay says. well, that's okay. we're going to -- i mean, tyler's not jackson

the mississippi borne revolutionary henry winston along with top leadership of the communist party usa had recently been indicted and arrested under the provisions of the smith act. it was claimed that the cpusa sought to overthrow the u.s. government by force and violence. they lead costly trial followed. civil liberties farce, the government's evidence consisted of excerpts from books written decades ago, half a world away. the red scare was in full swing and fueled in part by by unsubstantiated claims. winston defended his party. he said, i'm a negro, i have seen lynching and i have experience segregation, brutality of every possible kind, insults and abuses and i have always searched for a program for my people that would liberate them and i shall never forget the fact that it was the communist party, the first organization in this country which offered a program for my people as well as my class. unlike the paid fbi informants winston could not be bought. he fired back at his accusers denouncing the inquisitorses and political charlatans. wall street and park avenue control the sy

henry clay cannot believe it. you're mad, henry clay says. no, you're mad, andrew jackson says. i can't believe you're doing this jackson. jackson looks at clay, oh, yeah. clay, how many times are you going to run for president? two times, three times, four times, five times. how many times you got to lose, clay, before you realize that you can't win, clay? clay is just out of his mind. i can't believe this is going on. you're bluffing, clay says. oh, i'm not bluffing, mr. clay. i'm not bluffing. i'm going to take this bank down if it's the last thing i do, believe me, i'm going to do it. clay does not believe jackson. congress is in an uproar. all of a sudden, what is going to happen? should we side with clay? should we side with jackson? should the bank be rechartered? the number one issue on everyone's mind. and jackson has some enemies. not just clay but the president of the bank himself, nicholas biddle. a man who really could not be more opposite from andrew jackson. they shared something in common, they were very determined, very stubborn and bull-headed. but biddle was e

henry, you're perfectly in position. shall we start? good evening, henry! do you wa nt to start? good evening, henry! do you want to kick us off, digby? britain needs national circuit breaker. came out at five o'clock this evening. deeply political. this is breaking ra nts, deeply political. this is breaking rants, purely for political advantage. he got problems in the redwall, he's got to win back the northern constituencies, he needs to ta ke northern constituencies, he needs to take the side of many other cities and in that respect, he has to show that this is going to be something that's national and they mustn't fill picked on, they mustn't feel victimized or the midlands don't understand their problems. i think it's deeply irresponsible. what do you do then? it will get it down if you do then? it will get it down if you can enforce it, and then what you can enforce it, and then what you do after the? because the stu d e nts you do after the? because the students and certain communities around the north of england are showing they just around the north of england are showing

i kept coming back to henry kissinger. a man who's had such a long career of american and foreign relations. though not born in the united states, his career really does represent something about 20th-century american politics. when i did get the chance to tell kissinger this was the goal of the series, a short, concise book and using him as a prism through which to look at u.s. relations. he looked at me and said -- and i don't cover everything. it's not as short and concise as i had hoped. it got longer. it was even longer when i submitted the manuscript. i have the custom 25%. there were a lot of things that had to be left out. another question that i have heard, and i have two other kissinger books published this year, is why another book on henry kissinger? that's a legitimate question. i think there's a scholarly contribution. i am trying to write the book to reach a broader audience, but also to reach scholars. the argument is to look at kissinger in a new way. most accounts of kissinger look at him as a foreign pol

henry.|j scenario... sorry, isabelwe are tight for time. henry. i look at the numberof tight for time. henry. i look at the number of people who have already been displaced because of climate change around the world and this is only going to increase even if we are hitting targets. when you see

henry: ok, thank you. question comes from a member of the audience who says, you have lived and written a great deal about israel. what's your perceptions about what is going on there right now? bret: they are having an awful lot of elections. country that has the geopolitical dilemmas of a and the politics of a shtetl. knows israel knows that there is this kind of curious mixture of the high drama of, you know, war and statecraft and weapons of mass destruction, all these large issues, but israeli politics themselves are incredibly local. this is a country that has about the same population as metropolitan new york and about the same size as new jersey. and, you know, speaking as a jew, it's not surprising that politics are fractures and boisterous and sometimes problematic and sometimes a hair-raising, as in fact they are. look, one can have a large argument about how you can e structures of israeli politics to get something a little more regular. there was an attempt to move towards a somewhat more pres

good evening, henry. i am -- pret e manger. yes. good evening, henry. iam pleased -- pret e manger. yes. good evening, henry. i am pleased to see you did see that... is first the front page of the mail is concerned, it is the politician's nightmare. i can remember back in march, the prime minister was under enormous pressure to not lock down. the week before, he said, don't go into bars. a week before, he got hammered is the same sort of headline as the mail is running tomorrow, and a month later, he is under the hammer why? he did not lock down early enough. this time, he is under the hammer. why? if you do it, you're going to put loads of people out of work in the hospitality sector, and that is probably true. on the other hand, if you don't, you've got the rates of dying going up, under staggering pressure, so i do not do it about it? was it hogarth who said there are not much greater threats to see then the great british public in bouts of hypocrisy? i take ——iam —— i am not saying i take that alarmism on the front of the mail with a alarmism on the front of the mail wit

henry? this is another danger point for trump in the sense that those who have been put out of work by the pandemic in the hospitality industry and others are not necessarily those who are most aligned with his base. they include a lot of blue—collar workers. they are not the fortunate ones were all they have to do to continue working is to have a laptop and a strong wi—fi connection. the blue—collar workers have been suffering. they will be watching to see how the economy comes back and whether trump is at the forefront of that. henry, i wanted whether trump is at the forefront of that. henry, iwanted to whether trump is at the forefront of that. henry, i wanted to pick up on something you said about looking for billions to blame. president trump and his secretary of state have spoken about evidence that the virus started or spread from a laboratory in wuhan. we don't have an enormous amount of time to talk about that. the chinese have said they didn't. why doesn't he put this to rest

trying to balance judgment on henry kissinger is tough. the carelessness sometimes he could express. sometimes in his macabre wit is what he said about chile, it's so irresponsible to vote for a marxist. i think it brings out the greater hostility among writers and analysts. i think trying to build on kissinger is essential. i think people who built this over time and it is one thing very much around 2020 and i'm sure in 50 years it might strike a different balance. nevertheless i do think he had a moral compass and had a place that he tried to adhere to. thank you. to dr.ill now turn diane, who is the executive director of the center first children and for adoption and family issues at duke university. dr. diane has worked with centers for disease control. he was the architect for the humanitarian parole project, which brought over thousands of adoptive parents after the 2010 earthquake. of also helped the haiti act 2010, which granted u.s. citizenship to these adopted children. after practicing law and in her career she went on to study

henry? for the many of us who are in lockdown around the world, and that is a significant portion of the global population now, i think of the english phrase that we have 'killing with kindness', which is the opposite of what we need to think about. kindness is what will make us survive. in an atmosphere where tempers can easily fray, suspicions can rise, i think we need to have the mutual kindness that will get us through as a society and as a world. i do have a message to those who are leading us on the charge against the coronavirus, and that is, just as you believe your own personal doctor and accept his or her advice for yourself, believe the doctors and the experts on this who tell us the best way to fight the coronavirus. it's not about faith, it's about on the ground experience and science that will get us through. henry, thank you very much. lyse, in the studio? well, i have long been a big believer that good can come out of bad, even though we don't want the bad to happen. this has

there's a cuban cigar called the henry clay. and we see, too, that this box here is probably -- i'm not sure if it's a chewing tobacco box or a snuff box. probably chewing tobacco with the henry clay face on it and the other thing i found was franklin pierce gets kind of literally shafted here, he gets made into a pipe head. so during the campaign of 1852 everyone thought it would be a great idea to put franklin pierce's head on a pipe and smoke it. what can i say? he -- kind of a misunderstood figure, franklin pierce. other questions? i assume you all figured at this point we don't duel anymore. yeah? or do we? well i just had one other thing then because i had a few slides ready for you. here's one. it's this. you're on your cell phone doing the paces on the duel. so hold on. i've already lost track of my place, sorry, it's kind of funny. although duelling has ended, guys, the rhetoric of duelling has not and i was shocked. i remember actually watching this back in 2004 and thanks to youtube, the joys of youtube, i have been a

so, henry winkler apparently had a whole look. an lewk. >> henry's one of the truly good people on the planet. he's been really busy. he's got a new children's book. he turned 75. can you believe that? at the end of the month and apparently, that inspired him to experiment with a new summer look. >> explain the beard. >> i grew a beard. >> yes. and then all of a sudden one day, and i had hair down to my shoulders. my son said, dad, he said, you know, you might want to rethink that and i cut it off because my face looks really heavy and all of a sudden, he said you know, you've lost ten years. you look younger and i got a haircut. >> henry's been staying busy. his side hustle, writing children's books. his 35th release, lights, camera, danger, is out now. yep, the new york city kid who grew up with dyslexia is proof you can do anything. >> i spent most of my life as that kid. never really being accepted. part of my dyslexia, a part of i never thought i was good enough. >> but it saves a motivating factor as you write a children's b

henry.|j scenario... sorry, isabelwe are tight for time. henry. i look at the numberof tight for time. henry. i look at the number of people who have already been displaced because of climate change around the world and this is only going to increase even if we are hitting targets. when you see government is already turning in weight and becoming protectionist, becoming antiforeigner, i am afraid that this could become worse. we are at evens at the moment as to whether this will be the hottest year ever in recorded history. that is a very worrying sign of just in recorded history. that is a very worrying sign ofjust how serious climate changes. justin, isabel and henry, thank you so much. and thank you for watching. that's it for this week. geeta guru—murthy in the dateline chair at the same time next week week. goodbye. hello there. the weather will be typically autumnal this weekend with low pressure nearby, deep area of low pressure will bring windy weather with gales and a band of rain

henry clay, you got me thinking of something, henry clay really doesn't go away in tobacco culture. i have a slide here -- yeah. this guy, henry clay is all over product placement throughout american history. there is a cuban cigar called the henry clay, and we see, too, that this box here is probably -- i'm not sure if it's a chewing tobacco box or a snuff box. probably chewing tobacco that has a henry clay face on it and the other thing i found was franklin pierce gets shafted here and he gets made into a pipehead. during the campaign of 1852 everyone thought it was a good idea to put franklin pierce's head on a pipe and smoke it. what can i say? kind of a misunderstood figure, franklin pierce. other questions? i assume that you all figure at this point that we don't duel anymore. yeah? or do we? i just have one other thing because i had a few slides. here's one. it's this. you're on your cell phone doing the paces on the duel. so hold on. i've lost track of my place. sorry. it's kind of funny, although dueling has ended, guy, the rhetoric of dueling has not and i was shocked. i r
