in england, they believe in the kingdom. afghanistan, they fight for religion. we need to respect where the people are. go to them at what their lifestyle is. you do not just go in and bombard them and rearrange their dishes and the way they discipline their children. don't do that. host: to youngsville, louisiana, tammy on the republican line. caller: my opinion is this was not a mistake. this was intentional. this was a way to arm the taliban. obama did the same thing. he armed the taliban. he left all our weapons there. i think impeachment is the answer -- i think treason is the answer. for all these military generals -- what is happening at our southern border, if that is not treason, what is it? host: let's hear from shane in spokane, washington. on the independent line. not shane, alexander. caller: first, a quick comment. i was thrilled with your show yesterday. it was so professional, better than the networks. thank you. i think can burns -- ken burns -- host: the documentarian? caller: yes, an excellent one. he summed it up best on the vietnam war. we d

all right, as ida heads north, flood alerts stretch from the gulf all the way to southern new england. the forecast now from, cbs' lonnie quinn, who is in the path. >> reporter: let's get right to t i will tell you right now, louisiana, mississippi, we'll focus on river flooding. you can see the circulation is now north of jackson, mus miss, this storm put down 15 inches of rain, it has to go somewhere, it goes into your rivers, rivers every icon you see is either at moderate or major flood level and they will continue to tries. the reason being, while the storm is not a huge wind maker it has an on shore flow so we're not worried about storm surge, there are no warning, no watches for that, but what it is doing is creating a-- that cork, that water cannot exit from the delta or bayou. flood are for a mew for days, the it will push through, hely no to the northeast. winds continue to back down blowing at 35 miles per hour. the amount of rain, portions of pennsylvania could pick up eight inches of rain, portions of the northeast, anywhere from new york into southern new england could s

at the same time all that stuff was going on in new england. at the same time, parties of virginians were moving into this newly claimed land in 1775. and without permission from the crown, without any legitimate authority from above, but having taken part of the war in 1774 hundreds of dozens of people begin to occupy kentucky in the spring and summer of 1775. this is a map i just want to take a minute to look at. i am sure that you have a vision of what we are talking about when i am talking about the ohio country. this is actually a map that depicts battles in the -- during and after the american revolution. when we talk about the ohio country, i'm basically talking about this area mostly north of the ohio river. here's where the three rivers come together at fort pitt to define the head waters of the ohio. this is the ohio country. and then kentucky, the territory that people were beginning to occupy in 1775 and 1776 is down here. and you can see some of these early stations, boons borrow is one of the early kentucky stations. st. assaff. r

we have a loss in england but gains in france and germ any. in asia overnight, green across the board. "mornings with maria" is live right now. gunfire ringing out in kabul overnight as the taliban celebrates the last u.s. troops leaving afghanistan, this as hundreds of americans and afghan allies remain trapped behind enemy lines. ashley webster joins us live from germany this morning with more. good morning, ashley. >> reporter: hey, good morning to you, dagen. yes, the final withdrawal being announced as a surprise, many hours earlier than expected. in fact, there's a very poignant picture the military put out, a picture of major general chris donohue, the last u.s. soldier to leave afghan soil, you can see as he gets on the last military transport plane out. as that happened, it wasn't long after that the taliban, their leaders and followers came onto the airport and then began firing off their guns into the air in celebration, calling it independence day, not only of the airport but across the city. in the meantime, how many people are le

scary a thing this really was until after we had rented a car and i thought, my god, we're drive new england he mountains in a place where i do not speak the language and the gps is spotty ask us there's not like a formal address to the cassel. it's just the castle so good luck. i remember driving on roads and they were very slippery and a lot of hairpin turns. we passes an angry donkey who brayed at us. >> there is a donkey that brays. so once i get to the top of the mountain, we saw the cassel castle and i became very emotional because this an historic place that has seen so much and i thought, if these stones could speak. what would they say? that's what my book should be about. and i think most people there get very committed in the treasury because they're a lot of americana there. that's ben frank's are ring and george washington's pistols. they went missen when they were hidden to the nazi. i eave ha theory where they went but it's anybody's guess. got emotional walking into the ballroom which lafayette turned into a philosophers hall and the reason i got emotional there is because th

they are really navy blue strouds that were produced in england, that were a big part of the textile exchange and the fur trade. when given in the context of a condolence ritual they became black strouds that were many to cover the graves of the deceased to allow grieving relatives to put away the grief of those who had died and clear the ears, eyes, and throats so they could engage in negotiations. do we have any questions about the condolence aramony or the calumet ceremony? yes. >> how did the british learn how to make the wampum? did they trade with other indian nation force the wampum to give it to others? >> how did wampum get manufactured? when europeans show up, they bring tools that make it easier to manufacture wampum. so beads get smaller because they are using tools to grind and make holes in the beads. native tribes continue to make wampum, and europeans become interested in purchasing it. in early new england it is supposedly used as money before -- when the economy is just developing there. by the 18th century we see evidence of wampum kinds of being mass produced for

the children's commissioner for england will push for social media companies to stop children accessing pornography on their platforms. dame rachel de souza warned age verification could be brought in if websites fail to do more to stop youngsters accessing them. up to 60% of aged 11—13s stumbling across porn online and they shouldn't even be on these social media sites, and that's why i'm really pleased that the two secretaries of state, dcms and education, have asked me to look into what more can be done to keep children safe online. and i'm very keen, and i've called in the tech companies and had a roundtable with the adult companies, because i think one of the key things we need to do is ensure these companies take responsibility, along with all the other adults, and we actually can get those age gates on and prevent young people being on there. i'm joined now by dr elena martellozzo, associate professor of criminology at middlesex university, who advises the government on young people's attitudes to pornography. welcome people's attitudes to pornography. to bbc news, g you welcom

caused extreme damage in louisiana, but this flash flooding threat is going to move right into new england as we go throughout the next 36 hours. >> we're not done by a long shot. bill cairns, thank you very much. one more weather story for you guys. this one here in california. the lake calder fire is accelerating, evacuating south lake tahoe, a city of 22,000 people. roads were backed up as cars rushed to get out. by last night, the fire crossed two state highways, burning mountain cabins this. comes as the region faces strong winds, extremely low humidity as well. the calendar fire has consumed nearly 200,000 acres and now it's only 15% contained. still ahead here on "way too early," the growing number of cases across america and the impact on already strained hospitals, plus the new recommendation from the european union to ban american travel tourists. those stories and much more when we come right back.

are followed in rapid succession by the netherlands, denmark, france, england, and the united states. there is really a mad rush for the wealth to be gained in the slave trade and in the building of these systems of slavery in the americas. this is really critical. now, we want to talk about numbers. numbers are important, and numbers, when it comes to the slave trade are very controversial. over many years, there have been wildly varying estimates of how many people were carried out of west africa, really from sena gambia down the coast to southern angola, and eventually, later on, into south and east africa. how many people were carried to the new world? well, it turns out that we know quite a bit about the slave trade because the slave trade was a big business. and we have an abundance of business records. those business records and, indeed, practically every kind of conceivable record has now been mined and put together in something called the transatlantic slave trade database. and i would recommend it to all of you. this is a really magnificent scholarly achievement. we now have

from the north sea with the breeze continuing through the english channel, along the south coast of england, devon and cornwall, with eyes of 19 celsius. —— with highs of 19 celsius. this is bbc news — these are the latest headlines in the uk and around the world. the final us evacuation flight leaves kabul airport a minute before midnight — as it formally ends its military involvement in the country — after nearly two decades. this has been a massive military, diplomatic and humanitarian undertaking. one of the most difficult nomination's history —— in our nation's history and an extraordinary feat of logistics and coordination under some of the most challenging circumstances imaginable. the taliban have taken control of the airport — the militant group says the withdrawal is a "lesson for the world" and future generations. the uk says the immediate priority is getting out

over in england, king george iii is expecting washington to name himself king. why? because that's what he understands. so he's ultimately told that washington is actually giving up power? he's shocked. and he stops, and he says, well, if he does that, then he shall be the greatest man in the world. dramatic pause. writing that in my new book, among other things. but the idea, this is what seals washington's immortality. compared to the american sinsenatus. so he had briefly been granted dictatorial powers of rome. what did he do? gave it back. dictatorial powers of rome. what did he do? >> gave it back. >> gave it back and then we said became russell crowe. so "gladiator" loosely. so washington surrenders his commission here, and this preserves civilian supremacy, and it maintains for all after, that the army serves the civilian government. it won't be a dictatorship. it wouldn't be a monarchy. it would be civilian controlled. it would embrace the ideals of the revolution. and this moment in a lot of ways proves that the ideals of the continental army was based on a

because our constitution, our constitution doesn't allow us i to have these types of elections they do in england when you have a lack of confidence in a leader. we're stuck with the people's choice unless he resigned from office and then we get kamala harris. that has to be invoked by the biden cabinet, so i don't think that's going to happen, but the midterm elections are america's corrective course for how our democracy speaks great i think it's highly likely that they will gain in the house and the senate. biden is still in charge of foreign policy which ise the problem because we are subject to his judgment. i think derek asked the right question, what has joe biden done right, in the answer to that is nothing. everything he has touched in done has backfired and that's what the american people are going to have to judge. >> i was watching the knit geo 9/11 special last night in you were on it in that room next to the classroom where president trump was informed that america is under attack. any leader at moments like these. kayleigh? >> i watched your interview with the two goldstar dads in

event in the last two weeks for policy action, and it is what happened with the reserve anchor of new england. -- the reserve bank of new zealand. the rbn went [indiscernible] two tightening policy . they will dial things back. that is the challenge ahead. if governments can keep societies open, they will complement the central banks and be the cause of monetary tightening. i think we will see more volatility ahead. tom: what does this mean for the yield curve? what do we need to see to see sustained, gradual increase and steepening of the yield curve? what needs to come to play to make that happen? geoff: it needs a sustained rise in investment demand. we are coalescing around the view that apart from government and fiscal stimulus, this will probably not happen. new and sustained infrastructure spending, and the u.s. will be needed as well. if we do not have that, the long end of the curve will struggle. or it is back to her we do not think inflation or reflation will happen again, which means long end yield curves will not happen for some time. that could be more worrying. where does deman

they're a new englander. all americans are from boston. that document keeps talking about the habitants. who are the habitants? anybody pick that up? >> the french -- >> the french canadians. that's exactly right. the common people. the farmers. so those are the people who you don't know if they're going to help the americans or not. that's what everything was ultimately riding on. from that document, the baby journal, did you see any ways the french canadians helped americans? anybody see anything? this is question number two that i passed out. yeah? >> they protect the spies -- i have it written done in my notes. what i read was, there were three spies that stayed and there was a notice sent to have them removed and then the general that was supposed to remove them told a friend of his that they needed to get them out before -- >> okay. they aid american spies. anything else? >> they smuggled food and armorments. anybody else? some of them stand guard, some of them fight with the americans. not that many. did anybody see anything why the
