  • It's the 50th anniversary of "Jaws" – So Let's Hear from Joe Scarborough and Hunter Scott

    It's the 50th anniversary of "Jaws" – So Let's Hear from Joe Scarborough and Hunter Scott
    2025/07/31
    The House of Representatives … October 10th, 1998, … A Republican Congressman from Florida rises and makes remarks about a bill he's introducing: In the closing days of World War II, the U.S.S. Indianapolis had its hull pierced by three Japanese torpedoes. Twelve minutes later the cruiser went down. On board were almost 1,200 crew members and only 300 survived, the others dying of shark attacks and exposure. For half a century, the 316 remaining surviving crew members of the worst disaster in Naval history tried in vain to defend the honor of their captain, Charles McVay. This year a new secret weapon was employed in their quest, and that weapon was a 13-year-old boy named Hunter Scott Who was that? That was former representative Joe Scarborough. His mention of the U.S.S. Indianapolis might sound familiar –The story of its sinking by a sub was shared in that speech by Congressman Scarborough – and in a stirring soliloquy from a salty seasoned shark hunter in Steven Spielberg's seminal Seventies summer spectacular, Jaws. But the mention of Hunter Scott might be new to you. Who's Hunter Scott? Why did Joe Scarborough call him "a secret weapon"? And how did they take on the U.S. Navy together to change history – and win?

    "We're all going to die" – Joni Ernst? Nope. Bill and Hillary Clinton.
    2025/07/24
    You probably saw video of Republican Senator Joni Ernst recently telling an Iowa town hall: "We're all going to die." And you probably saw the ensuing Democratic outrage. But do you remember who said this? "It says that eventually we are all going to die!" "Under the Clinton health plan? You mean after Bill and Hillary put all those new bureaucrats and taxes on us; we're still all going to die?" That was Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton. When did they say that? Where did they say that? And – maybe most important -- Why did they say that? Plus: Which other politicians have publicly suggested "We're all going to die?"

  • "Peace Through Strength": The U.S.S. Ronald Reagan

    "Peace Through Strength": The U.S.S. Ronald Reagan
    2025/07/17
    "Peace through strength" — it's a phrase heard frequently after the U.S. attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. These days, "peace through strength" has become associated with President Donald Trump. But an earlier President also famously embraced the doctrine of "Peace through Strength." Happy Thanksgiving as well to Captain Pat Hannifin and all of the sailors aboard the USS Ronald Reagan. Great ship. Your ship's motto is one that we embrace every day: "Peace Through Strength". That's what the motto is, and we have that motto at home. Everywhere the Seventh Fleet sails, the USS Ronald Reagan is an enduring symbol of American might, American strength, American power and, really, American goodness, in so many ways. That was President Trump on Thanksgiving in 2018. Speaking to the crew aboard the USS Ronald Reagan — and noting the ship's motto — "Peace Through Strength." What is the history of the USS Ronald Reagan? How did "Peace Through Strength" become associated with the Nimitz-class nuclear powered aircraft carrier? And which other presidents and politicians have cited "Peace Through Strength" when talking about the USS Ronald Reagan? Find out in the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly."
