i think with which peter just pointed out, it's about the tactics. there's someone -- it should not try with the authorization needs or should be. if we are authorizing military force, whether that be you drop a bomb and nobody is on the ground or whether or not that is an entire battalion, it is still military force, and it still needs to be authorized, because as we have seen throughout the past 20 years, that has ebbed and flowed. there was this urge. our numbers went up and down. when we are just counting what is the utilization of u.s. forces that does not take into consideration what is happening on the ground as peter so correctly mentioned. no matter the sort of military tactic we are employing, at the end of the day, if we are utilizing military forces there should be an authorization use of military force and we should as legislators and as the united states congress need to be debating whether to utilize that force, whether it is a soldier with a gun or a drone flying overhead. absent that, congress is not doing right by constituents. it i

i think peter and i both know it has been a difficult conversation. but we can start that taking steps in the right direction by saying do we still need a decades old aumf? remember our aumf that allowed us to go to iraq in 1991? it's frankly no longer necessary. so i think it's getting us into the practice of talking about aumfs, of recognizing these zombie aumfs could be resurrected. and really pulling people together on that path towards contending with the reality that we still have the 2002 and the 2001 on the books which are from a congressional standpoint something that we need to contend with. >> representative meijer, we would love to hear from you on this as well. you have written some very similar points to what representative spanberger just raised, but we would love to hear anything you would want to add. >> i think abigail touched on the key elements well. i would just say that i think there's a shared recognition that the 2001 -- i mean, this is the war on terror aumf. this is the authorization that's been used in 19 countries against a

it's the peter principle. he also, in his defense, he is the quintessential southern type general, the time the confederate general wants, an offensive minded general. and i think that comes from the indian fighting he learned on the plains where you attack, attack, attack, before the indians can get set. it's moving, moving, moving. fast paced. his larger battles if you noted what i said were pretty slow. >> ladies and gentlemen, matt atkinson. >> thank you very much. >>> so how exactly did america get up to its neck in debt? >> we believe one of the greatest characteristics is striving to provide equal opportunity for all citizens. >> c-span's video documentary competition 2022. students across the country are giving us behind-the-scenes looks as they work on entries using #studentcam. you can join the conversation by entering the competition. create a five to six-minute documentary using c-span video clips that answer the question how does the federal government impact your life? >> be passionate about what

it's the peter principle. he also, in his defense, he is the quintessential southern type gentlemen. he is the type the confederate government wants. an offensive line combat general is what he is and i think that comes from the indian fighting which he learned on the plane. and he attacked before they set. it is moving, moving, moving. fast-paced in other words. but his larger battle, as i said, were pretty slow. [applause] at least six presidents recorded conversations while in office. here these on c-span's nuked podcast, presidential reportings. -- you'll hear about the 1964 civil rights act, the 1964 -- the march on somma and the war in vietnam. not everyone knew they were being recorded. chris murkowski, doctor chris murkowski, is the editor and chief and cofounder of emerging sable war. -- published by --

peters and this would indicate that dr. peters was a simply to getting a pass to go through the line to make sick calls in the staff thought nothing about it when he went in there. it's nothing unusual. he got away and he made it to union lines believe it or not. interestingly enough and i've got to rap this up. you're being very gracious with me. interestingly enough jesse gives birth to a baby girl on january 26, 1864. would you like to do the math with me? [laughter] in 1866 dr. peters files for divorce citing abandonment on the base at may 7, 1863. a couple reconciled though a couple of years later and georgian jesse sold their springfield home and 73 and moved to memphis with george passing in 1889 and jesse passing in 1921. ironies of all ironies. the daughter reportedly took care of the doctor on his stick bed. that was the point if there's splitting in the first place i'm sure. in conclusion ladies and gentlemen that's the reported bloodstains that are in the house today. in conclusion ladies and gentlemen the cover

peter meijer represents michigan's third district. abigail spanberger represents virginia's seventh district. they have really let this effort. when we were looking for someone to host this discussion, -- the co-editor who has also written widely on the subject. it is fair to say that much of what i have learned on the subject and what i have learned from congress' work on the subject has started with her. i'm going to turn things over. it is your show. take it away. >> thank you so much. it is wonderful to be here with these two members. you both have been steadfast in reminding us it is congress' duty to reclaim the war powers that have been largely ceded to the executive branch. you have been writing legislation, you have been cosponsoring legislation, you have been trying to get it passed, and you have remind us that both parties have been stretching unilateral authority. you have not been treating this as a partisan issue. i thank both of you for focusing on that. let's jump right in because our time is short. i want to start wit

peter carmichael .

i know senator peters joined us shortly on video. but i'm not sure if he's returning or anyone else. so i will tell members i'm going to do a second round here and we'll see if anybody else appears for questions. if not, we will close out the hearing. administrator, one of the issues that we've heard a lot about in the certification process and it's come up a couple of times is the fact that the law requires a change product rule to change that process. and yet, i think you're seeing, it's going to take years to do that by rule making. and yet, we still have a process under way for certifying planes. what are you putting in place now to make sure that you have the workforce and the people to review that process while the change product rule is in development? shouldn't the faa produce policies to close the loophole in the meantime? >> senator, chair cantwell, absolutely. we are working this on two tracks. we have meyer doing a study for us on the criteria for significant changes for the change product rule, to drive those decision cr

and i see senator peters. we are all filing in here. >> thank you, madam chair, and thank you administrator dickson for your testimony. this committee is examining the aircraft safety and accountability act implementation. i was proud to support this bipartisan legislation to address and alleviate concerns with our aircraft systems. arizonans rely on safe aviation travel to bring tourists to arizona, the ship arizona products to customers and even to take scenic flights above our scenic landscape. i say if aviation system is critical to my work. over the years, our subcommittee has held meetings on the tragic 737 accident and they need to improve infrastructure for our -- i appreciate the work the faa has done to improve safety but more needs to be done. i encourage you to keep working to keep implementing the certification statute. but administrator dickson, as you probably know, aviation is an important part of arizona system. arizona is home to four of the ten busiest airports in the country. tragically, on

peter name sake of the cathedral. so when you emerge it is kind of beautiful thing you see right at eye level and then you come up. that is what you are looking at. or if you take the flanking stairs to the right, i think even more dramatic, in that it creates a new unfolding vision as you come up and out of these stairs. and that view, framed view of the dramatic west front becomes your first introduction. so it produces i think a radically improved process of arrival. olmsted jr. talked beautifully about and the 1924 plan and vision coming up through what now is the olmsted woods and talks beautifully about those sylvan woods brushing off the dust of the city and preparing you through this decompression for arrival at the spiritual of the time that it was at the south transit, eventually with anticipation of course that it would enter from the western front and so now this change has come about, but i do believe it made a dramatic improvement not inconsistent with that vision of a kind of decompression and drama in

the editorial team, including ken of yale, paula peters of the nation and myself three of us here are pictured along with jeremy of the american pilgrams museum. and the manuscript included hebrew vocabulary from the government trying to teach himself that. we row lied on the interpretation of that material. the inclues is a striking departure from traditional, but not the only one. i'd like to discuss what makes this volume unique and move on to talk about working on it helped me to revise my understanding of bradford and his writings. william bradford began to compile his history in 1630, 10 years after the arrival on the mayflower and the same time that john arrived in massachusetts to take charge of the colony that would become the dominant puritan presence in new england. while bradford composed the work in a way that suggested he was preparing for public education, it was not published in his lifetime. passed on in manuscript to successive generations of his family, it was used to tell the story. his nephew nathaniel moore used it in writing. his own history, published in 1669.

peter the, namesake of the cathedral. so, when you emerge from that below grade, and it's a beautiful thing where the landscape suddenly emerges, you see it right at eye level. that's what you're looking at. or, if you take those flanking stairs to the right i, think even more dramatic. in that it creates a new unfolding visions as you come up and out of these stairs. and that frame view of the dramatic west front becomes your first introduction. so, it produces i think, a radically improved process of arrival. olmsted junior talked beautifully about it in the 1924 plan of envisioning coming up what through now is deemed the olmsted woods. he talks beautifully about those words rushing off the dust of the city and preparing you through this decompression for arrival. eventually with anticipation of course it would enter from the western front. now, this change has come about. but i do believe it made a dramatic improvement, not inconsistent with that vision of a decompression and drama in arrival. then over the shoulder o

we have hargraves and peter walker and s.w.a. in there. then finally, i'm calling this 1995 to present. i actually wrote this particular slide about six years ago so i haven't analyzed whether there's a new present in the last six years. but i'll go with this for now. and that is more district planning. so we're getting back to looking at a whole series of buildings or a whole neighborhood instead of individual buildings. and what i didn't mention is, after the 1906 earthquake, the university -- first of all, leland and olmsted had a falling-out. so by 1890 he was no longer -- he was kind of fired and no longer working on the campus, olmsted. however after the 1906 earthquake, they went back to the olmsted firm to ask their advice of what they should do in terms of rebuilding. and their advice was to go back to the plan, go back to compact development, stop spreading buildings out compact development, stop spreading buildings out randomly, and i'm not sure that advice was followed because jane was putting some of her pet buildings in vario

this would be from plans like peter and the rolling stones and now i know exactly the situation they were in trying to follow gary gallagher but in all honesty, i want to begin tonight by thinking my colleagues and all the members for their tireless work that goes into this yearly symposium, it's an honor to be back in person and halfback moderate over this weekend and talk about this defining moment in american history but even more of a special occasion for me this evening because growing up, my superheroes didn't wear capes. historians i got to meet, battlefield i got to go to battlefields i got to go to. the opportunities to talk about an interesting person like john pope tonight in the room of such notaries as greg ray and gary gallagher is a true honor so thank you. where do we begin this evening? we are going to begin with perhaps one of the most famous moment in john pope's career and i ask you to bear with me as i read through dynamic words written 159 years ago. military proclamation of popes would begin with this, but us understand each other. i've come to you from the wes

the same people peter strzok, andy macomb, what concerns me the most, it's not the regular federal agent. i talked to so many of the fbi. this was a group at the top. all of the intelligence community that tied the narrative together which led, after president trump was elected to cripple his first months. we remember that in 2017. what bothers me the most. they knew this and members of congress began to notice and knew it was falsify did never verified. even bruce said there's problems of the dossier but nobody would admit it because they were after one thing they couldn't stand the fact that hillary clinton got beat. >> i have to tell you. i don't watch a lot of tv. what i read and what i saw right before the election and after the election startled me, i'm not a young person. i'm seeing a lot of political campaigns and a lot of reaction typical under political campaigns. certainly after the florida recount and bush 2000 campaign, bush gore we saw a lot of animosity of hanging chads in the supreme court decision. nothing like the vitriol towards president trump. at this point time you

[applause] virtually everything you recited relative to me is false. i said earlier, on that day in january, i wrote letter to the congress. i continue to share those concerns. i support efforts to prove voter integrity. -- improve voter integrity. elections are to be governed at the state level according to the constitution. the founders made that decision. the only role of the federal government was to open and count the electoral votes set by the states. i understand the disappointment in the election. you have to be willing to do your duty. i appreciate the affirmations of support tonight. it means a lot. thank you. >> my na

and it peters had been working on and exhibited and done a lot of research and she's been looking for them as well. so they wanted to get to know how josiah winslow died at the age of 62 and penelope is to commemorate his past. so this is very high style thing and you can see that josiah winslow care, in the ring, and has the works of goldsmith and there's no description though. in the story behind this, rings true and although - but we cannot make know for sure but we do know that in various times that josiah winslow there is a letter, from the secretary nathaniel martin, and the collections at the historical society, just this really wonderful document. and penelope really tries to have the loss under josiah winslow and there were letters between josiah winslow and penelope that survived. and in his will, josiah winslow gave his power over the state so at this time, typically receive one third of the personal property into one third into the real estate and josiah winslow is charged with how to settle the land and if she needs to well and truly is in her ability to land management w

i was walking down pence imvein yeah avenue, on the house side, big thing from the peter's institute about national debt. now it's $28 trillion. every single american owes 80,000 in debt, every man, woman and child. once you realize that, when you talk about the spending, i mean this is before we spend another $5 trillion, you all owe 90 grand. every person. and when interest rates go back up which they will at some point, we're going to be really screwed, but i think explaining to people what is going on, and just, again, we don't have to persuade in the same way they do, because we actually can just say, do you realize you owe this much pun money and you'll owe another 5 trillion. what are you getting for it? i'm watching town hall with biden last night, no joke, folks, how many times did he say that? i was like stop it with the no joke. my dad used to say joey no joke. so i gathered all the big companies and say we got to start operating 24/7, they won't come to eight hours and you want 24 seven? get first eight hours under control then worry about the other 16 but everyone's like

. >> so peter what are you working on now. >> a better book on gettysburg, what the world desperately needs. [laughter] but of course like everyone, you feel like you're doing this from a different angle and i think that william. and three confederates and - and the idea is that obviously highly biographical and a pickup on july 1st and rather it starts at the end of the campaign. and when we think about the operations we included stories of the rank and file you see the lives almost at that very moment, the point of contact. and rather of course the things that the men carried with him, and the long personal stories that they had and carried throughout the campaign rated so the idea is that these individuals will provide through which we can see broader issues at work and so many of these are cultural and social things and not deeply interested in and i think that throughout the campaign studies in a way that i will be doing the things that will does predict not going to do any evaluations, all of which i think are extraordinarily important and i think that this book will do people m
