a poet and essayist a professor of poetry at yale and we find her in her home in connecticut. >> i really miss talking to you in front of a live audience i'm glad we can make this work but i have to say i will miss that. so thank you and welcome. >> thank you for having me. >> before the pandemic that you would imagine you would be traveling and talking about this book in front of live audiences? >>. >> i thought as close as i could come to have conversations with different people across the country and try to make that happen this is the next best thing. and to speak to a wide range of people before the election to think how we managed to get ourselves where we are. >> the things that i say about doing these conversations on the stage is that there is something about that leaning in energy of the audience that changes the discussion with its own kind of influence the way these conversations go. as i read your book to my think there are moments that would startle the audience and we would be aware of that and moments i would hope the audience would be introspective about what is being sai

apparently, a yale law professor argued in 1995 the house speaker becoming the acting president would be unconstitutional, saying the constitution says officers, and they mean that to mean people in the executive skip thehich would speaker and pro tempore. what do you think about that? guest: it is challenging under the constitution. it is certainly not a universal approach or theory on this. we have never had to test this. the furthest we have gone in the line of succession is the vice president, thankfully. i do think if we were in a situation where both the president and vice president were either incapacitated, no longer in office, or dead, we would be in a very serious national crisis. would step inlosi as acting president, legal challenges would arise, they would be dealt with in the courts. but during that time, i cannot imagine a federal court issuing werejunction saying they removing nancy pelosi as acting president, or against whoever the speaker was at the time acting president. that would play out in the courts. ultimately, the supreme court would decide the constitutional

susan: her law degree is from notre dame, every other sitting justice is from harvard or yale. when did that trend take place? ilya: very recently. john paul stevens was northwestern and rehnquist was stanford. this kind of professionalization or goldplated credentialing in the legal profession, and this is the pinnacle of the legal profession, is a fairly recent development. you did notecades, necessarily travel fall, especially to law school, if you wanted to practice in chicago, you went to law school in chicago. now the law is becoming nationalized and elites in all professions becoming nationalized, there is the skew. having gone to the university of chicago bosco myself, i think it's a breath of a to have some of midwestern experience. coursethe hearings of will be televised live, streamed live on the internet, followed by social media, blog about and covered in every way. when was the first public confirmation hearing in our history? they were not always. ilya: for most of our history, we did not have them. the first was 1916. we don't have c-span footage, unfortunately,

the infect husband is disease expert, the infectious disease expert and universities like harvard, yale and ucla say it is time for a more targeted lockdown with stronger restrictions for some and fewer restrictions for most everyone else. >> 95% of the population has minimal risk. >> he believes most indoofr facilities can reopen safely including restaurants r, bars a gyms. drlt believes many of our current rules should be lifted. >> there are health officers all throughout the bay area that would argue these restrictions saving lives. >> reporter: i believe that many measures within the bundle of shelter in place do save lives. but there can be many negative ramifications and many negative consequences from stay at home and lockdown orders. >> reporter: but major sporting events and large conferences should still be avoided. and he is calling for stronger protections at hospitals, prisons and nursing homes. the cdc found nearly a third of all covid deaths in the u.s. were in nursing homes. >> these are really disaster places when things get out of control. >> reporter: rather than ran

definitely the last justice to have played in the nfl while being a yale law student. susan: the first televised hearing was sandra day o'connor in 1981. in your final section on reforms to the process, one of the things you suggest is no longer televising the hearings. why do you suggest that? ilya: that is perhaps an awkward thing to touch upon when talking to c-span, but i think the hearings were a good development and broadcasting them was a good development, but at this point when everyone knows what will go on, it is at best kabuki and at worst harmful to public discourse. the nominee is coached and trained to talk a lot and not say anything. justice ginsburg perhaps pioneered that method at her hearings in 1993. the senators, those are of the same party of the president trying to law softballs and making the nominee look good, in the opposing party is either trying to have harsh gotcha questions or just speechifying to have a clip for their advertisements. we don't learn very much about the nominee and we don't learn very much about the law, and all of their pap

of, no offense to anybody who went to this school as i did, but it was considered all white male in yale for decades, and diversity was certainly a huge problem at the cia. and i think it helped to blind the cia in many ways. i mean, i think that we've been historically for many, many decades falled to understand these other -- failed to understand these other cultures. and lack of diversity is certainly a part of that. and that's vastly improved now. and i think the ci a's improved in many other ways too. >> interesting. i just want to tell everyone if you have any questions, please feel free to put them in the chat or the q&a. i will work them in. i have another question that kind of speaks to the evolution of the cia which is more structural, and that is the dni. the odni, the office of the director of national intelligence, creation of post-9/11 reorganization of government to enhance the intelligence and national security priorities of -- and abilities of the country. it meant that the rest of the cia was not the head of the intelligence community the way it was sort of understood t
