along with harry truman, the other democrats, tom connally of texas, carl hatch, new mexico. james mead, new york. monroe and walgren of washington state. the republican owens were joseph paul of minnesota and owen brewster of maine. any standouts there? mr. drummond? so, yes, a couple. brewster was actually, even though he was a republican, ended up being one of truman's best partners on the committee. truman often would hand off the chairmanship to him when he was away, and they ended up they ended up collaborating very well, even though eventually and of course, politics would intrude a little bit. james mead was also one of the leaders on the committee, was often cochairman and he would take over the leadership committee after truman resigned in 1944. steve drummond what years was the committee active on the truman committee operating from 1941, from march of 1941. and it went into, i think 1948 or 1949. harry truman was chairman of the committee until august 1944, when he was chosen to be the vice presidential candidate for franklin roosevelt's unprecedented fourth term.

kirby smith had his army in texas. so the war was by no means over or one. and then stanton had to organize the wonderful and majestic funeral procession for abraham lincoln that, took him through all the major cities of the north and the journey back to springfield. so stanton had to hunt the lincoln assassins, get john wilkes booth, find the conspirators, fight and win the civil war, and organize the national tribute to abraham lincoln. so stanton is a great american hero, so overlooked. one of the best things about the show is stan is finally given his due in american history. it's emmy award winning actor tobias menzies, as you said, who portrays edwin stanton. yeah. here's a little bit of how he portrays stanton, but if you're a war secretary, how come you don't assign a task like this to a clerk? you've got a little brother and we let him solve your problems. my lady says i never met a challenge. i could delegate. why was it up to edwin stanton? do all these things? lead the search as he's trying to win the war and organize the funeral procession. why

we are rebuilding not just new york, but communities from ohio to texas to arizona and beyond and the benefits in those states will spread as subcontractors and other suppliers around the country are called upon. most importantly, the investment made will mean lower costs for american consumers in the long run. less vulnerable to some by chain disruptions like the one we saw encoded which sent prices skyrocketing on all sorts of electronic devices. by bringing chip production back here to the u.s., we can avoid this in the future. this is precisely what i envisioned when i led the way on chips in science. bipartisan members in the senate and with the president secretary armando. let me think president biden and the secretary for helping me make these investments possible. with their vision and leadership , we are bringing manufacturing back to the u.s. we are revitalizing middle-class families. we are giving communities that have been left behind a second chance with investments, new jobs, new opportunity. it took a lot of convincing and persistence. but, today we are starting to see

foreign terrorist organization, this amendment offered up by my friend and colleague, the senator from texas, might actually pass. remember, this is the same entity that's been firing on u.s. forces in the region and those of our allies and yet they couldn't let that happen. democrats will agree only to amendments that they find politically palatable or know will not pass. now, it's not always been this way in the senate. when i first joined in body in 2011 as a new member, individual members could call your amendments freely and make them pending and the senate would have to dispose of them, either by voting them in or voting them out, up or down or by a motion to table or reject them. but members had to vote. they had to take ownership for their opinions in public. they had to let their constituents know where they stood. today the majority leader hides the ball from the public by filling the amendment tree, ensuring that the amendments that he andis party dislike will never see the light of day. this is a certificatus, it's a mad house. filling the amendment tree is not about creating an
