every single president since warren harding roosevelt died in 1919 every single president since then has invoked him and perhaps none more as enthusiastically as the likes of george w bush bill clinton and barack obama who in fact he launched his affordable care act and osawatomy, kansas where theodore roosevelt spoke and of course john brown, you know is more famous. john brown that site, but but roosevelt is a is a is a nonpartisan figure that every president has invoked in some stage some more than others, but every single one is used to well if i've always thought that if hollywood had movies had really been invented a few years earlier had been a thing in 1900. teddy roosevelt would have been the perfect action hero he would have eclipsed john wayne and tom cruise and all those marvel heroes, right? well, i mean he certainly has the charisma of a hollywood actor and you know if you see him in films you'll you know, my students all think robin williams is theodore roosevelt from the movie a night at the museum and there of course, he is a man of action, but there's so many films

at this point it is presided over by then president warren g. harding, and the internment is made on just the other side of the amphitheater here in this newly created tomb of the unknown soldier. you can see this is just a small snapshot of the thousands upon thousands of americans who came to pay tribute. again, this one person representing so many more and the channel through which they could participate in public mourning and public memory. now, congress' involvement in the tomb of the unknown soldier and how we pay tribute to those we've lost did not end with the first world war and the internment of the first unknown. in 1926, the congress appropriated the funds and authorized the spending to increase and improve the tomb of the unknown soldier to enhance the tomb of the unknown soldier by adding this large monument on top. if you look, i'll jump back briefly. this initial tomb of the unknown soldier was actually at grade. it was at the same level as the plaza that surrounded it. they added this sarcophagus. you have this structure added o

what happened with the renaissance is they had medea g and the lauren and the warren and the hard money. and the perfect money drew in the greatest minds of the world of discovery of art, of architecture, of culture and all these great minds came there. and so when, like i said, when i was reading between twitter and just like shocking names here in el salvador, helping out the people, ordinary people who could not possibly know who is actually helping them. it just felt like yes, this is what is going to happen with hyper big point is ation well, bickering out the through. it's in the open source software movement and the free up and starts off for a moment. and the people who i've been involved in that going back to linus torvalds and linux and other open source project, i richard stallman the free software movement. you know, we interviewed him many years ago. they are all about altruism and putting in a little to make the network great. and this is what made the network as great as it is and you see it on the ground here. now solving are the core dev and the high end tech folks that

warren harding describe how the soldier might come from any one of the millions of americans homes. hundreds of mothers are wondering today, finding solace in the possibility that the nation bows and grief over the body of one she bore to live and die, if need be, for the republic. we will go to sylvia in virginia, republican line. hi. caller: i'm so happy they passed something last night. i tried to stay up all night to see what was going on. i'm glad there is money out there, because every time we see a bridge that is crashing to the ground it is horrifying to me, and i'm glad they have some money out there. i hope it helps to clean up the planet too. thank you so much. host: and vivian is the last call for this segment. democrats line. caller: good morning. i'm calling about the infrastructure bill. and the other bills they've got in there. this could have been passed along time ago. i'm sick and tired of the democrats saying they want this, they want that. it is the public. we put them in there to vote and help us. they look like it is theirs, with manchin. host: some democrats

elizabeth warren has been pushing this hard, is disturbed by this nomination. what do you think about not nominating that person now, what is going on? larry: i suspect the administration is taking its time to pull its full slate together, the processes of vetting people these days are extremely elaborate. i have confidence that president biden, janet yellen, brian deese, cathy russell, who heads white house personnel, will make a good choice. what i hope for is somebody who is deeply committed to rigorous financial regulation in the way that i think is necessary, the way that derulo was at his time. we should not be appointing someone who believes banks should be replaced with a public utility, or who believes banks should be removed entirely from the business of risk-taking, as some of the statements from the administration's comptroller nominee has suggested. i think there is room forfeited -- for substantial change from policies pursued by the outgoing chair randy quarles. frankly, i think jay powell could use pressure from the program get a tour aside from

they want to teach their kids the value of hard work. some celebrities want to do the same. a long-term financial planner saying this, what i've seen from other parents is that they don't want to provide too much money that they take away their child's sense of purpose. if you leave hundreds of millions of dollars to a child, there is a potential they won't have work ethic and will sit around living off the money. that's not healthy. most people need to work to feel fulfillment in life. david, i agree with the sentiment. however, when i leave this dirt the person deciding the where the money goes to it's my child, with the values that i've instilled in them. >> this is a conversation the elite have with one another. only 3% of americans get a more than a million dollars from their parents. most of us have to work really hard our entire lives to get what we achieve in this life. now, joe biden and aoc and the squad may take care of that if they continue to raise taxes as they seem to do on americans, they may wipe out a lot of wealth. all of that to say the great irony here i

starting with elizabeth warren trying to put someone that's going to in her view really regulate the bangs even more so than they're already regulated. you have to watch for that. that's the wild card. maria: kenny, it's been a great year for stocks. s&p 500 shown a gain of, what, 25% or so, how are you feeling about stocks and investing in this market at these levels toward year end into 2022? >> so here is what i think. i'm not chasing the high-growth names and sexy names, nasdaq sold off. that's not any reason to light the place on fire. new money i'm putting to work in cyclicals and i'm worried as we move into the end of the year as santa claus rally already happens since the s&p was up nearly 10% since october but now there's going to be some more thought about, okay, should people pay gains and pay current capital rate gains or are they going to risk into next year. do i think we are at the top of the year but i'm putting money to work in the sectors that i just said. maria: all right, kenny, have a beautiful thanksgiving. good to see you and we will catch up after the holiday.

perhaps you want to hold cash for protection but the market is so expensive right now that it is hard to find way to put it to work, perhaps safer buying vacuum shares. -- buying back your own shares. manus: your member when people lambasted warren buffett for buying the railroads in a year -- in america. he was way ahead. they spend more on buybacks and apple shares since 2018, $20 billion repurchasing their own stock in the middle of 2018. there is the performance of berkshire hathaway. first of all, you need a 41,002 by one a-share. go on? dani: that is a lot of numbers. i don't know. manus: it's a lot of numbers. then you have concentration risk, what if you bought one share? you have that money all in. i could think of worse people to be fully loaded on. on a slightly more serious note, it is a cash pile, that brings in the bigger question, how richly value our -- valued our u.s. equity markets? bank of america, dark side of the moon. u.s. equities outperformed every other part of the world, the best year since 1997. it is a victorious lap for u.s. equities. dani: it is, and if y

. >> senator warren from massachusetts is recognized for five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman. so giant corporations and the wealthy have worked hard to rig the tax codes so they can pay lower taxes than everyone else. and now the democrats are looking to make a tax code just a little bit fairer and hordes of lobbyists are fighting us tooth and nail to stop it. the whole thing is disgusting. both one fight is down right breathtaking even in this cesspool, and that's the lobbyist fight to protect the ability of their wealthiest clients to cheat on their taxes. millions of hardworking americans file their taxes honestly every year. their employers send them w-2 forms that say exactly how much they earned in wages right down to the penny. and then the employers also send a copy of that to the irs. this is called third party reporting and helps taxpayers and also helps the irs zero in on tax cheats if the numbers don't add up. wage earners from cashiers and teachers are subject to third party reporting, but the wealthy get their money in other ways. and mostly the irs doesn't get a

lauren: this is what some senators want like elizabeth warren. stuart: another house democrat announcing retirement. i want to know who it is how many democrats that makes are leaving. last count i got 14 democrats are retiring. is this one more. lauren: congressman butterfield. he represented north carolina since 2002. there is new congressional map. one safe seat within reach of gop. 15 democrats won't seek re-election in 22 versus 10 republicans. stuart: many of them know they would lose in 202. lauren: do republicans flip at least five seats needed to regain control? stuart: i have no answer to that question but i'm hoping. thank you so much, lauren. >>> who could forget this video, afghans clinging to the side of military planes during the botched withdrawal from kabul. state department officials are speaking up about the chaotic exit. we'll tell you what they are saying now. >>> drug overdoses hit a new record in america. 100,000 deaths in a 12 month span. the big problem, fentanyl pouring into our country from across our southern border. w
