we also have a wash house. direct access to that spring water to wash clothes, a meat house where they are going to store a lot of products like bacon, sausage, ham. we have a produce shed which is where you're going to store wood so it stays dry. but also vegetables and fruits are harvesting from your land. we have a tobacco barn's not going to be a huge cash crop. turkeys and your chickens the very german influence barn you'll be thrashing your wheat and your hay. storing that grain and storing your animals for the wintertime. typically men and boys will be out in the field taking care of that major cash crop. they will be in charge of swabbing those animals and some heavy work with animals. they'll be in charge of cooking, mending, washing clothes. they will feed the animals, men will be the ones who take that major cash crop of wheat to the market, to the mill to have it sold. they will be going to town to have those products appraised and get money for the family. men like tools for the farm, repair tools,

we are going to focus on housing. during the pandemic, you could look anywhere in the country and find soaring housing prices. existing home sales data, july come arising for a second month, indicating actually that housing demand we were worried about may not be the issue at the moment. taylor: indeed. that was some of the actual strongly, data we got this morning. total existing home sales, you are up 2% in july. the median home price fell to just 359,000. you were down about $3000. year-over-year, up about 18%. if you think about some of the rates in blue that were low, that makes it affordable for lending, pushes up the price. in white, you have the home sales, real strength in the pandemic. olivia rockman has been covering the pandemic for bloomberg news. what are you thinking about low rates, affordability, then of course inventory and supply? olivia: it does seem like from the standpoint of existing homes, that the supply improvement in july is what helped improve sales more generally. there were 1.3 million ho

guest: the task force was formed from the house, speaker pelosi. they requested assistance in providing a security review of the capitol. with the perspective that the more in-depth commission and/or committees would be formed inside the capitol from the house and senate to dig into who did what, when and how. what they wanted was an immediate review of the operational procedures, training and in operability and security of the capitol. so that immediate steps could be taken to secure the capitol prior to what happened on the sixth to have the capitol open back up to the public. we spent six weeks, myself and 16 others, members of the task force, we call ourselves tax force -- task force 16. we report back to the house in the process of creating that report area we went -- report. we went into dialogue that went into equities for security of the capitol in conjunction with capitol police, which we engaged all members of capitol police force as well as the capitol police themselves and making our assessment. that report concluded a 12 page exec at o

he sneaks in and out of the house. he takes electricity from a socket in the hallway, and he has just avoided us all together. host: sorry to hear that. it sounds like a fairly untenable situation. jenny schuetz, any thoughts on that? guest: we are running up into the problem that some landlords do not want to keep the tenant in the property anymore. they are frustrated, as this caller was, they have not been receiving rent. in some cases these are tenants who might be disturbing other people in the building, and the landlord to are at the end of their patients and just want the tenant out. the programs that require the landlord to say they want evict the tenant for some time have been a problem for getting money out the door because the rental assistance won't go out unless there is landlord cooperation. in some cases, we need to accept is the current situation will not last, provide the renter with security deposits, first month's rent, to move into a new place and let people sort things out into new places to live.

just don't want to buy a house. you know, this was an old whole fire out years ago which right now, but i, i want, i did the yoga or the attorney. well no, i was born here many years ago and they used to be an old fire house around here someplace where you know, where it would have been might have been here. and i was converted or there used to be a tiny, tiny fire house. but let me just check up a little bit with my mother punch. and then when your face over there, when i was 6 months old. we moved from little italy in manhattan to this area right here. it was a housing project one night. my uncle frank was all what his wife and a mob guys came down as well. can you guys with badge and felt sticks? stable on the way to fight a bunch of black guys, and they walk past us. and my uncle plank said to my father, get this kid, get him out of his neighborhood and move. and it was not that long after that we moved to the town. i see, okay, you can tell me how could you leave new york tribal bridge? i got a bit disabled. it

the houses here, beautiful, but golden outside house stuff is tough. oh. as a kid, i didn't really understand how segregated to city was because i never left my areas . one time. my dad got his house for a week is like little outside the city. and he had a nice apartment complex tool every day. brilliant people had a decent car. it wasn't allowed at night, it was fun. but when i got back to the city, they got evicted. my dad sent us somewhere for a week just to get the house together. i've moved too many times to count. i've lived in so many neighborhoods. it doesn't allow you to gauge what is normal this neighborhood. so pretty much the same. a lot of these houses vacant, we used to go all behind them and up in them almost like it's ready to go in and find everything that are left before they got evicted. you know, a jackpot, some phone over like the community didn't feel it doesn't. and when you say lease, because we're kids is just having fun. baltimore is a microcosm of many urban areas in america. and it is like dickens would say the tale of 2 cities.

that means house and senate. it was made very clear at the beginning of this process that this bipartisan deal, if it even survives the senate, the only chance that it has at passing the house is if the house passes the senate bill and if the senate passes the house bill, which is largely in reconciliation. so we can't just have one body driving the entire legislative agenda for the country and, frankly, 20 senators that -- within that one body. so we need a reconciliation bill if this bipartisan bill -- if we want this bipartisan bill to pass. >> i know the infrastructure deal they're talking about -- manchin said they're going to introduce it today, bring up the language -- is smaller than you wanted and your fellow progressives wanted. it includes funding for electric vehicle charging stations, clean water, broadband. when it comes before the house as it looks like will happen, will you vote for it? >> we have to hold on to that bargain. if there is not a reconciliation bill in the house and if the senate does

today, the house of representatives did just that. today's vote in the house allowed them to consider my build back better agenda, a broad framework to make housing more affordable, bring down the cost of prescription drugs by giving medicare the power to negotiate lower prices for drugs, make elder care more affordable, provide two years of free universal high quality pre-k, and two years of free community college, provide clean energy tax credits, continue to give the middle-class families the well-deserved tax cut for daycare and healthcare that they deserve, allowing a lot of women to get back to work primarily, and provide significant monthly tax cuts for working families with children through the childcare tax credit. these investments are going to lower out of pocket expenses for families, and not just give them a little more breathing room. in addition, we're going to make a long overdue, much-needed investments in basic hard infrastructure of this nation. this scenario where we have broad bipartisan agreement to invest in our

the house rejected that argument. what happens is gallegos is left to have his speeches translated into english and read by the clerk of the house or to have members help him on the floor. again, the language barrier isn't the only impediment. he doesn't serve on a committee. he has to lobby other members to help him push legislation. he wins election again in 1855, but this election is contested by another hispanic from new mexico who had run against him, miguel otero. that contested election really kind of opens a window onto what's happening in new mexico politics in the 19th century, because gallegos really was part of a dock nant faction of shis span i don'ts in the district who favored kind of the receding spanish system. they had latched on -- they had kind of gained revolutionary ar dur during the mexican revolution. that was culturally and politically where they were coming from. the other side was represented by otero who was from a business-oriented, the rico class. that class tended to align with the ameri

but the white house is driving this. sean: one of the things that we see every day or every other day our cars at the gas station, they will cost have gone up in urine texas congressman and edward lawrence was just talking about a big-play and energy in texas, what is the feeling in texas about oil and energy in the increase in prices? >> we can help we are right here right now barrels is down 2 million barrels, rather than the president begging opec to open this ticket or now having russia to the number two importer in the united states, america was energy independent, can be for the long-term, why the president is baking some of our enemies to provide us oil when we have american-made energy right here ready to go in this war on american energy it makes no sense but these are families and workers in small businesses who are paying the price for this. >> has a real impact on her pocketbook but also families in texas. i want to turn to house politics is internal fighting in the democrat party. we have the left-wing squad

it's going to be the house and the senate. and right now, the senators on the democratic side have agreed to the resolution but there is still a lot of discussion that needs to take place in terms of the ultimate substance of the $3.5 trillion agreement. and so, from my standpoint, not speaking for anyone else, you had senators like bernie sanders and elizabeth warren vote for the resolution. along with senators like kyrsten sinema and joe manchin. that's the least that we can do in the house of representatives to get the process started. and then, over the next few weeks, we can have a substantive discussion and negotiation about what the build back better budget framework should look like before it gets enacted into law. >> congressman jeffries, before you go, andrew cuomo has less than two hours left in the job as governor. he has followed your advice and everyone else in the new york congressional delegation who asked him to resign based on the accusations brought forward by the state attorney general on sexual harassment.

from the trump white house felt? >> i i haven't spent that much time in the biden white house but i got some more questions about this. i will say i think it's hard, it's just as hard to cover trump as it is to cover biden. people think in a way like covering trump is kind of this easy pickings, there's so many things, details to learn and things to collect but the problem with covering trump was that so much of it wasn't reliable or coming from reliable narrators here. i mentioned my kind of long newspaper career, whether it was any of these county commission meeting for school board meetings or state legislative committee hearings, like never have been anywhere except the trump white house where eight people could go into a meeting and 12 versions of that what happened in that meeting emerged afterwards. to understand what is happening behind the scenes you needed to talk to almost everybody who was in the room to have an understanding of what happened. there were so many rivalries, so many, i mean trump came up in

and the house was empty. daughter karrie was away at college, but the youngest, who lived there with michele, was nowhere to be found. >> no 14-year-old was discovered. >> so where is this child? >> that was one of the first concerns. >> it turned out the youngest was actually with karrie at school in rochester 100 miles away. police learned that when karrie called them herself after a friend gave her the shocking news. >> my mom hung herself. >> we are looking into it. can you give me any insight into what might have happened? >> i don't know. i decided to go home. >> karrie told police she had stopped by the house that night. >> when i got there, they were freaking out. >> in karrie's words they had a fight, her mom went yelling and screaming. >> karrie told investigators she stormed out of the house, taking her teenage sister with her. not all that unusual. police learned that raised voices in that household were sadly routine. a bad divorce with kids caught in the middle. this is, as they say, a house tha

he had edward house. he had robert lancing who was just be a international lawyer really whom wilson regarded as more than a clerk who was secretly conconspiring to get the americans on the side of the allies which is not what wilson wanted at all. wilson had a couple of young diplomats, william butler in london who was a junior diplomat but brilliant, the young joseph grew in berlin. there were good american diplomats in the service at it and they were sending interesting advice back to washington, but it wasn't being used or heed, so it's -- it's -- that's what is so incredibly tragic about this. you can blame the german generals for their hawkishness, their yearning for the submarine panacea, their yearning to find some way of finally beating down bethmann and showing that the military was really in charge in german, yes. they deserve all the blame that you want to heap upon them, but this problem was eminently solvable in january 1917 and wilson had all the tools in his hand to solve it. he had by thi

a group of nine house moderate democrats is threatening to rebel against the white house and party leaders to block that vote. instead they want to first pass a separate bipartisan infrastructure package before speaking to the larger plan. one of them, congressman josh god heimer of new hampshire joining me now. thank you for taking the time, congressman. >> thank you for having me, jim. >> i am sure is that you privately and publicly have been getting a lot of pressure to change your opinion. democrats as you know hold a narrow majority in the house. you know the risks here. are you and the other eight democrats willing to sink these bills to make your point? >> no, actually just the opposite. we want them both to move forward and pass. but first and foremost, we've got to pass that historic once in a century infrastructure bill that came out of the senate a couple weeks ago with all 50 senate democrats and 19 republicans and, you know, jim, what i heard from the calls i'm getting are from the hard-working men and women of labor and people in my district are saying i don't get this, we vo

boarding houses. now, this is a photograph of a stereo card that is why it is so fuzzy but on the right with a green arrow you can see the statute of george washington that we will talk about in a moment but this building was the blue arrow is the reconstituted old brick capitol made into some nice-looking board houses there. boarding houses. never seen this photograph before looking and i was looking for photographs of the statue and then i realized there in the background, is the old brick capitol reconstituted as a boardinghouse. it is really quite attractive. certainly from what the building of the pipe before. by 1929 congress had purchased his boarding houses and tore them down for the construction of the supreme court but they had been used in the headquarters of the women's suffrage campaign and so the very associated to that of the life of the building. it never going to talk about the statute. here you can see this is lincoln's inauguration and again the blue arrow shows you where that statu

the white house, though, is also known as the people's house, and so that really means the white house grounds are the people's grounds. and if you start to think about it that way, it isn't so far removed from a typical suburban home. typically, suburban homes, mine included, have a more formal or dressy front lawn. that would be the north grounds of the white house with the north portico facing pennsylvania avenue, and a more private, hess formal backyard -- less formal backyard. that's the larger south grounds looking down toward the washington monument. and that's pretty much what happens at the white house today. >> let's get to the issue of just how sacrosanct are the white house grounds. are they untouchable? and i don't -- you're an historian, i'm a journalist. neither one of us is a politician. but first ladies, especially in the modern era, they want to go around changing things, there's resistance to that. >> there is. i think it's fair to say that people have an opinion about melania trump's recent rose garden renovation. but hopefully as the history of that site, which i j

i'm pretty confident that we will win the house. but in terms of the specific, where he was airing zeroing in on, it always run scared. that's. it >> now speaker pelosi issued -- congressional campaign committee. the dccc. the democrats might be in trouble in -- comes the midterms, if they don't change their messaging on the economy. still with us juanita tolliver and bill kristol. when utah will start with you, what do you think of the questions and nancy pelosi's? response >> from the dccc will put perspective, let's make our case to the public and -- his agenda is widely popular for -- afforded the american rescue plan to the infrastructure packages. people support this, people need this. and people recognize it when democrats call it out and say, hey we deliver this to you. and almost exclusively deliver this to. i think pelosi's response recognizes that not only is she a scrapper but she also knows the uphill battle that democrats are gonna be up against recognizing that we still have redistricting that's going to be led by a n

in the offen is where the house sat. they stayed through the seventh congress up to first session of the eighth congress in 1804. i am going to use the words of these three men, wadsworth, reed, and cutler. reed and cutler are roommates. at some point i will be throwing in words by william plumber a senator from new hampshire. he came in a year later to fill a vacated seat. he shows up in december of 1802. again, all of these things are spin-offs of my book on thatcher. i was curious, once thatcher leaves congress what happened everwards? what happened to the federalist congressman from massachusetts, new hampshire, the other new england states primarily would were left behind to carry on the federalist fight. i call all of this talk experiencing defeat, it is a ripoff of christopher hill's famous book the experience of defeat which looks at how levellers, quakers, parliamentarians dealt with the restoration after the english civil car in the 18 60s. i wanted to see how they dealt with defeat. from that chronological epi

and in fact many of the studies found that housing rate market housing suppressed lower prices of housing nearby. those were the study findings that we relied upon in our analysis and conclusions about displacement. some of them used san francisco as some of their case studies and there was somewhat older or a little bit older research specific to san francisco as well looking at the impact of new housing developments and all generally across the board found limited to no impacts on rents, and hence displacement. the gentrification is more complicated, but still there was little causation found between the market rate housing unit and gentrification. it's not displacement, hence gentrification. and there are many factors going into increasing gentrification. we tried to find as much literature on that as we could. that predates the literature on displacement. so it was all of those things rolled together. >> thank you for the clarification. those are all my questions. >> first-time procedural question. did you just want comments on the adequacy of the e.i.r. or comments on the remainder o

but this is the largest bed chamber in the house. oh, it belongs to lady katherine and lady augusta. they are the oldest of the children. they are is a and 14 years of age -- they are 15 and 14 years of age. i think they left in a hurry last night. you see these young ladies have the largest bed chamber because they also take their lessons here in the house. that bed over there is for their governess, yes, a french governess. we may not like the french, but we do like their style. very important that these young ladies speak french. they will be present to the royal courts. their father has a seat in parliament. but now the governor's taken his entire family off to [inaudible]. they are sailing up the york river at the moment, which means they are all sharing cabins on a ship. seven children and the governess and their nursemaid and the servants, oh my. i'm sure they're wishing they had this much room again. oh, lord and lady dunmore's chambers are over this way. we will pass through a guest room here as well on our way. i know. i kn

martin we carried former utah congressman and former director ron and we have this fight, moderate house democrats as a major resistance for policy in the far left massive spending and extravaganza gift, hangs in the balance or another you have the votes in theon white house is nw making frantic private phone call to these moderate democrats and president fighting cannot afford to lose in this given his botched withdrawal afghanistan and is all numbers are dropping hundred and the story, mark vaccine candidates coming for americans, now that the fda has given full approval for vaccines and is the government specifically have thehe mandate for government workers and the vaccinated when you don't work we debate out plus we got more rules and it will be in every speaker policy again, cameron this time at a lavish fundraiser. and no mask, no social distancing, plus major change from top democrat player in a russian investigation defining who it is where he is going and we have this printed conservative demanded dhs the bordero secure among the thousands of terrorists release in afghanistan k

but how concerned do you think the white house should be? and which do you see is the key to improve those numbers, the infrastructure bill, which might appeal to independents or the budget reconciliation which maybe could boost support among democrats? >> i think it's clear that the reason why the biden approval ratings have dropped so significantly is because of what is happening in afghanistan. and if democrats are smart they go to a strong domestic agenda. it is why voters turned out in 2020. rather their base that showed up, communities of color, low-income people. yes, independents and republicans voted, but that is who they are going to need their base in 2022. and the one thing that i think is so interesting is that progressives get such a bad wrap. oh, they're radical, oh, you should be afraid of them. they are following in line with the speaker and the president right now, and it is moderates who are making the problem. and they are not being demonized as being difficult or challenging. they say they are following their constituent

you find a house, no one using that your house, congratulations. good hunting, my friend take a flagpole out. 6 front with your box or shorts, as the flag on it. and every one know that your place now. but instead squandering and homelessness, or crimes. just last week, the los angeles mayor signed an anti camping ordinance in the law, which is designed to make being homeless and arrestable offense. meanwhile, right wing trolls think making existence illegal for poor people is a good thing. right wing trolls like this 1. 1 of those terrible decisions is essentially doing away with anti camping laws, right? allowing people to camp out wherever they want, whenever they want. there is public housing available and individuals will say, no, i don't want to take it. i don't want to follow the rules in the public housing and you know, what happens, crime happens opener, drug markets happen. and it's the truth. these are the facts of the matter. allowing homelessness to exist is the crime you know, or on people living on the streets in the richest country

a month ago and the white house waited until the day before the house adjourned to release a statement asking congress to extend the moratorium. i sit on the committee which has jurisdiction over housing. we had the housing secretary there asking about the administration's stance. we asked the biden administration about their stance. they were not being really forth right about that advocacy and request until the day before the house adjourned. >> to her point could anything have prevented this? how many people might be actually kicked out of their homes now? >> this is very real. we talk about 6 million people or more families are behind on rent right now and the important number is over 300,000 families the eviction process has already started in the sense that the court papers have been filed as soon as this eviction has now lusted those are going to move very quickly. we expect possibly 3 million evictions in the coming months to happen. obviously everybody knew this was coming. it was not a surprise. in my mind the biggest tragedy you can see congress trying to blame the white hou

if she says that the house is flooding, the house is flooding, i'm getting out of there. i'm going to get my wife and baby. and so i drive out of there as quickly but safely as i possibly can. and once i get through mccuen, i come to an impasse where the ems workers are turning everyone away. the road between mccuen and waverly has just entirely washed away. but i mean i wasn't about to wait. i had to make sure that my wife and baby were okay so i walked along the railroad tracks. i get back in town and i met some of the most wonderful people. they gave me a lift to my house once i was in town and the ems workers, they were still outside trying to evacuate houses and everything like that. i see mine and i see the one next to us is completely gone and its remnants are on fire and i just -- i start running to the house as quickly as i can. and i'm like have you guys evacuated my wife and baby? we got everybody out of that, we're pretty sure. i say please be sure, she's a 4-month-old girl. they go with me to help. i had the window that i can see is busted out, and i could se

housing stock. needs and travelers, resources to address the problem have declined will rapidly and other federal housing programs. tens of thousands of new units are needed, thousands of existing units fell. the simple fact is, $2,000,000,500 of additional new funding is needed if these conditions are going to be addressed. give especially to build. the urban institute in 2017 art that more is needed to require the capacity to build housing and other related infrastructure construction on this scale. they are prepared to quickly gear up to build the social number of new units. this will help tribes in alaska be able to generate for their communities, the country post-pandemic with recovery just as they did successfully 10 years ago after the great recession. thank you for this time to testify. >> thank you very much to all of our panelists. we will begin with a round of five minutes questions good -- questions. i will start with mr. shepherd, which is the unique challenge we have on -- with housing

you mentioned richmond now on the white house staff. congresswoman former congresswoman marcia fudge now, that is a powerful testimony about the enduring power of the carcass. let us not forget vice president kamala harris is a notice now is the vice president. the members themselves in working with this administration, how do you see the significance of this moment? what are some of the things we might look forward to? >> a lot of people may not see it this way. but barack obama was a member of the congressional black caucus. he and i used to sit next to each other at meetings. the senate sees themselves a little bit different from the house. most of us in the house we don't get to every meeting. [inaudible] go on. >> they participated sincerely believe they learn a lot in those meetings. if you are from illinois sitting down in that meeting listing from mississippi. listening to those members, you will get a much better feel for what it is you are up against. i know, has told me more than once how much is learned from being from calif

it is a political nightmare for the biden white house. there's nothing more treacherous for a politician than parents worrying whether kids will be safe in school, worrying about the virus spreading because of policies at the state and municipal level in these communities, and the central tenet of biden's campaign for president was that he was going to tackle covid, he had the skills and the bipartisan relationships to effectively cut through the crap and address the pandemic in a way trump did not, and the fact that covid numbers are rising now, the fact that the delta variant is so potent and the fact that getting the vaccines into some of the communities has been such a challenge is really spelling political trouble for biden at this hour. >> do they have the covid task force, ron klain, do they have new ideas to tackle this or feel as if at this point, even though they know they're taking on water politically, a lot of people at the end of the day say they're going to blame the top. ron desantis has poor poll numbers right now too, i

today gene sperling wh was the white house coordi house coordinator of pandemic recovery funds, today said the president biden'hands are tied after a supreme court ruling in june made it clear another extension wouldn't stand. >> the wording in the supreme court opinion was fairly clear that they said the c.d.c., could not grant such extension, without “clear and specific congressional authorization,” i think really what has happened, what we are all dealing with is that the rise of the delta variant is particularly harmful. for those who are most likely to face evictions, and as that reality became more clear going into the end of last week, i think all of us started asking, what more could we do. >> woodruff: and our white house correspondent yamiche alcindor joins me now. so yamiche, tell us more about what is behind the president's decision not to extend this ban himself and what is making this issue so contentious. >> well, the federal moratorium and contention and scrambling around it comes to two big thingsk law and politics. on the legal side white house aidees, gene sperl

the action really does shift to the house, because reeblgt now you have the house is also going to want to take this up. speaker pelosi has said she's not going to take up this bipartisan package until there is reconciliation. this is going to be a september or october issue for congress to deal with both of these pieces at the same time. it's going to be a very busy time. as much as this bipartisan effort really was democrats and republicans coming together, they quickly now go to budget resolution where both the senate and the house will have to write those packages. >> isn't september and october kind of an optimistic timeline when it comes to working on these bills in tandem? you ever democrats in the house saying we don't want to vote on this thing. they should be separate. i was message imagining more of december timeline. >> i'm talking about when they actually start to take them up. it's going to make for a very busy fall because you also have the need to raise the debt limit as well as fund the government thrown in that mix and how they sequence these bills as well as what's en

looking down on the house floor, people have exited the house floor. and i remember diana degette leaning over the railing and saying, what about us? there was this sense that we did not know how we were going to get out of there. all the doors on our side had been barricaded. we did not want to go out that way because we did not know what was on the others of the doors. and we started getting instructions that were kind of conflicting, but the thrust of the instructions were to go around the perimeter of the gallery to the far side, which is again what i would call the republican side of the gallery. because there was one open door over there, which was clear -- if you picture a football field where on one end of the football field -- we are on one end of the football field and we have to go all the way around the perimeter to the other end. the problem was to get there, for those who know the gallery, it is a very tight space. the seats are like the most crowded movie theater you have ever been in, with handrails every several rows of seats. you had

capitol, the people's house. and i'm proud to turn over to my colleague, very well respected member jim banks. >> today we will hear tragic stories by capitol police officers, tragic events that should of never happened at this capitol building on january 6th. tragic events that happened on speaker nancy pelosi's watch. it's clear at this point nancy pelosi has cherry picked the members to serve on this committee. she has prewritten a narrative only numbers who will stick to her talking points are allowed to serve on this committee. if this is truly a fact-finding mission to make sure january 6th never happens again, this isn't what that looks like. today i want to repeat a call that i made last week to the chairman of this committee to bring before this committee today on this panel the head of the capitol police union who told many of us last week and has said publicly and privately that on january 6th the rank-and-file members of the capitol police department, the heroes that make up the many women, the heroes
