we will visit trenton, new jersey to explore general george washington's crossing of the delaware river. tour takescities american history tv on the road to feature the history of cities across america. here is a recent program. times that trye men's souls. the sunshine patriot will end this crisis stray from the service of his country but he deserves the love and thanks of man and women. thomas payne will write the american crisis. it will be published on december 19 in the pennsylvania journal. washington has it read to the soldiers to try and bolster the sinking morale. the situation is dire due to the defeats washington has suffered. his recruitment is almost nonexistent. they need a victory. they need something positive going. washington, certainly, is well aware and desperate for it. the victory at trenton, when they get it, will be a huge morale boost, confidence builder. the result will be recruitment. it will encourage men to come forward to join the army. this is the site where general washington on christmas night, and the continental army, landed. boats would have been lande

did george washington predict donald trump? it notes, quote, washington raised red flags about disunity, false patriotism, special interests, extreme partisanship, fake news, the national debt, foreign alliances, and the foreign hatreds. with uncanny foresight, he warned the most serious threat to our democracy might come from disunity within the country rather than interference from outside. and he foresaw the possibility of foreign influence over our political system and the rise of a president whose ego and avarice would transcend the national interest raising the threat of desk pottism. i'm joined but one of the authors of that piece. vice chairman of hills and company who spent four decades as a u.s. diplomat including serving as ambassador to united nations and russia. ambassador, good to see you. thank you for being with us. obviously for those of us in new york, washington's final address came to some light because it's peached in the broadway play hamilton. it really is quite a remarkable piece of work. for americans w

he is also with the extremism programme at george washington university. scientists in the united states are developing wearable sensors to speed up the recovery of people who've had a stroke. the sensors send information to doctors continuously — allowing them to monitor the effectiveness of their therapies. wearable technology is now being developed by researchers around the world — as our science correspondent, pallab ghosh reports from austin, texas. technology you can wear. skin displays developed by japanese researchers that show your vital signs. it's to put on patients so that doctors can monitor their progress. the displays are among a new wave of wearable electronics finding medical applications. and we're going horizontal with this one, correct? in the us, lizzy mcaninch had a stroke two years ago. she couldn't move or speak or swallow for several weeks. lizzy is testing out wearable sensors that might speed her recovery. they send information wirelessly to the medical team. she's a doctor and she can see how it would help her. this technolo

george washington who designed the presidency at the very beginning. one of the reasons the constitution is so vague about what it president should really do is because the founders new that george washington would be the first president. it doesn't help very much when you have a president like donald trump who says almost as a badge of honor i don't read books, i'm not that interested in history. >> a story in recent history had me thinking about you today. and that's robert strange ma macknumara. we learned years after the tumultithat during the protests in washington they put up a couple of kids, friends of their kids on their living room floor who were getting up in the morning and going to protest the vietnam war being run by the homeowner. it strikes me that there's a potential parallel in this campaign the students have started in florida. and there might have been potential parallels on gay marriage, the fastest moving public issue i've seen in my lifetime. that a lot of these lawmakers, even the guyess taking so much money from the nra, are go

many of our newport ancestors did not look like george and martha washington, did not worship like george and martha washington. their backgrounds were african heritage, native heritage, and jewish heritage. for me, this provides me an opportunity to talk about all of american history in the most inclusive manner. every generation of a family has maintained heirlooms and passed it on to the next, so we have 18 century and 19th-century collections of furniture, clothing, books, documents, all the things a family might have an cherish -- and cherish has been passed on to our family. it gives us a strong sense of not only being rural new porters, but most importantly rural americans. are story is an untold story of so many other americans in this is any today -- our story untold story of so many other americans in this country today. america was founded on the ideals that anyone, regardless of race, ethnicity, religious persuasion, has a right to settle and prosper here. the story of newport very much represents that story.

yes. >> hi, i'm avery and i'm a senior at the george washington university. also, i love vital voices. my question is how do we ensure i guess for jackson katz, how do we ensure the actual quality and content of this educational material is good? because i'm gone through all these things and i've gone through trainings and they haven't been comprehensive or effective. i've spoken to men after who didn't feel like they learned a lot from it. how do we ensure the content is quality? >> that is a great question. it is a work in progress. are meeting in d.c. this week talking about how we can use our decades of experience that what we know works with men and young men and try to figure out how to translate that into broader policy around the country. variable education going on, a lot of non-education. most high schools have zero on these matters. and the ones that do are mostly inadequate, to be quite blunt about it. so we have a long way to good. part of the way to ensure quality is to get the right people in the room making policy decisions, as well as followi

washington explained so eloquently and what her role was was. the whole worldld depends on making things work. as we have seen it hasn't done what it's supposed to do. and it's not the blame of one person or the other or one party or the o other. i guess we can say it's all of our faults for letting it get to this point. several years ago i took a personal pledge and i just knew something was wrong. when i first got here and i looked around i saw we were all expected to make phonecalls raising money everyon day there are sect of parties and that money would be used for couple of purposes, the purpose of setting an agenda or explaining your priorities. a lot of that money was directed towards f defeating colleagues n the other side so me being in the democratic caucus and the democrat money was supposed to be raised and if anyone of my friends on the republican side was often cycle that money was supposed to be used against them. i felt i was wrong and i know my republican friends, a lot of them feel the same way. they are supposed to be making p

washington explained so eloquently, and what our role was as the most deliberative body in the world and the whole world kind of depends on us cooling things off and making things work. but as we've seen, it hasn't done what it's supposed to do, and it's not the blame of one person or the other or one party or the other. i guess we can all say it's all of our fault for letting it denigrate to this point. several years ago i took a personal pledge. i just knew something was wrong. when i first got here and i looked around and i saw we were all expected to make phone calls, raising money every day to our respective parties, and that money would be used for a couple of purposes. the purpose of basically setting an agenda or explaining your priorities and your policies. but a lot of that money was directed towards the feeding colleagues -- towards defeating colleagues on the other side. me being in the democrat caucus and the democrat money was supposed to be raised, and if any one of my friends, any one of my friends on the republican side was up in cycle, that money was supposed to be

kennedy george washington and thomas jefferson despite the fact that donald trump is the first modern president to not publicly release his taxes he is clearly the wealthiest u.s. president ever he inherited a large sum from his father and invested much of it in real estate resorts and and casinos. total net worth is estimated to be three point one billion dollars and like donald trump j.f.k.'s wealth has a cause in that he died before he received his large inheritance from his father had he received the inheritance along with a wealth of his wife jacqueline it's estimated that j.f.k. had would have had a net worth of one billion dollars and coming in third is the birthday boy george washington who earned one of the largest u.s. salaries in fact he owned more than fifty thousand acres of land bringing his wealth to roughly five hundred twenty five million dollars and the fourth wealthiest president is one of the key authors of the declaration of independence and the third president of the united states thomas jefferson who made most of his money through an heritage from his father in

please reflect on religion and masonry and of the founders including franklin, george washington, and other founders. >> i get asked this a lot. ben franklin was a freemason. many of the major founders were freemasons. that has remained a controversial subject through present day. i think for franklin, his membership in the masons was significant. he does not talk about it a lot. some people would say it is because it was a secret society and you are not supposed to talk about it. i don't get the sense that for most of his life, it was not a central issue for him. i don't think that masons in the mid-1700s were quite as controversial. it became later on in american history. they were minimal. it fits along with franklin's overall support. they were minimally doctrinal and focused on service and benevolence. it is the epitome of the religion of the enlightenment. it's men fellow shipping over issues of how to do the most good in society. it was also a social plug for them. this is the great era of the social clubs. and coffeehouses and taverns and sociability. when franklin went to fra
