secretariat sherman, i want to ask you about belarus. when the eu president was here last week, and the pressure on lukashenko, how can the u.s. support the eu as it faces this horrendous migration crisis? secretary sherman. >> you think i would have learned by now. indeed. what lukashenko is doing with undoubtedly the support of president putin is outrageous, which is bringing out migrants from the middle east and pushing them over the border into poland and to other countries trying to create a crisis for the european union. i was meeting this morning with my german counterpart here in washington, and interestingly enough this question came up when i was in peru, because it is emblematic of exactly where this conversation began, which is the struggle for freedom and democracy. the united states wants to support europe in every way we can. let them take the lead because this is their backyard, we are prepared to impose whatever sanctions are necessary in this regard and making it clear that this is not acceptable. i know there are discu

it reaches a furor with justice sherman meanten, because sherman meanten had served on the seventh circuit court of appeals and had an outstanding record. he's a former senator from indiana, had been a hard core new dealer, even more hard core than harry truman, who had been representing his state in the middle of america, had been a middle of the road person who stuck with his president because it was his party and he knew it was politically the right thing to do, and where his state's constituency was. sherman meanten when he was senator was a rabid name, he only lasted one term in the senate. it's tough to do these days, to be a one-term senator, very tough to do it back then. he was so fervent for the roosevelt administration's policies. and that came back to haunt him even after he had served for years and distinguished himself on the seventh circuit court of appeals. so by the time president truman nominated sherman meanten who he had passed over to nominate tom clark, everybody was so certain that sherman meanten was going to be the third nominee when a vacancy became available that

he knew he was going to nominate sherman minton. and he nominated sherman minton to the court. sherman minton did not serve long but he was a force on the court in large part because of his personality. yes, he suffered from heart disease, he was kind of an explosive personality particularly in the area of civil rights, he would literally pound on the table, telling justices they need to do the right thing here, the constitution forces them to do the right thing and they need to essentially have some guts and do the right thing. in fact at one point they thought when we get to the brown case in 1952, the first argument of them, some of the fellow justices were worried, actually before that, back in '49, '50, they were worried he might have a heart attack during the conference, he was so exercised over this. he thought, why are we debating issues that are so clear under the constitution, in sherman minton's mind. >> there's also a story, i think it was with clark, maybe it was with minton, that made me retrace my steps and think there are some pretty solid differences here as we

so that shermans wheel horse. i promise to finish this very quickly. but sherman says that thomas is is off the wheel horse and with three sets of forces the lead pair and the swing pair and those that are the closest with the and that is the one that you don't ride. so he was trying to say one of the two horses that matter the most to me the only ones with the brakes with those big strong strapping horses didn't put anything you could even play john and the lead horse. [laughter] he is a dear friend we go back long way and i look forward to his talk but he could be a lead horse. and then with the heavy lifting so the swing pair that is a total waste i will not take anybody out because that would be sad to say who the total waste is but it is very significant you cannot control it and somehow that's not the horse you will ride. i love that picture of sherman but he doesn't like he is unsavory i do have a different line but the national campaign with the last major campaign he is relieved twice and grant is on his way to replace specifically. and thomas
