The Expansion of China's Navy
"Want to play for you in anticipation of mine the next segment reading you a large part of Jerry Hendricks essay in the Atlantic. And he'll be along in the last hour. A bit that played on 60 minutes. It's the perfect backdrop as is the Hendricks article which I've just pushed out on Twitter if you're following me on Twitter, you hear it. On Sunday Night, two nights ago, toshi yoshihiro is on talking as were other guests talking with 60 minutes about the massive stunning expansion of the Chinese blue water fleet. Give a listen to this cut number 16. There is a tendency among the great powers to look at each other's naval buildups with deep suspicion. Toshi yoshihara of the center for strategic and budgetary assessments may know more than any scholar in the west, about China's navy. China will have about 440 ships by 2030. And that's according to the Pentagon. Why is China able to build more warships more quickly than the U.S.? China has clearly invested in this defense industrial infrastructure to produce these ships. Which allows them to produce multiple ships simultaneously, essentially out building many of the western navy's combined.

"Get Trump," No Matter the Cost With Alan Dershowitz
"Indicate that this week, Donald Trump will be arrested in New York. No better guests to help us talk about how this is outrageous, then the author of the book get Trump the threat to civil liberties due process and our constitutional rule of law, Alan Dershowitz, New York number one, New York Times Best Seller. Professor Dershowitz, welcome back to the program. Well, you have to admit my timing is pretty good. This book was did you guys did you have an inside source or something at the DA's office and you just timed it up with publication date? No, I just know who the DA is and that he wanted his 15 minutes of fame, but I didn't know when he would indict. You know, ironically, this is the weakest of the four cases that they're investigating against Trump. The weakest politically, the weakest legally, the weakest factually, and yet Bragg wants to be the first out there. Hopefully he's going to think of trying to get money for reelection from George Soros. But in any event, this is one of the weakest cases I've ever seen in my 60 years of practicing law. You know, they work for months and months and months and months and went through every statute and they produced a mouse called Mickey. This is a Mickey Mouse case.

Russia will extend Ukraine grain deal for 60 days — not 120
"Russia says it's ready to extend the deal enabling Ukraine to export grain, but not for as long as hoped. I'm Ben Thomas with the latest. The UN and turkey brokered the deal between the warring countries last July, aiming to ensure global food supplies and keep prices from spiraling. It allows Ukraine one of the world's key bread baskets to ship food and fertilizer from three of its Black Sea ports. A separate agreement between the UN and Russia covers Moscow's shipments of fertilizer to global markets. The original 120 day deal was renewed last November and expires Saturday. It would be automatically extended for another 120 days unless one of the parties of jacks, which Russia has done. Its UN ambassador says Moscow will agree to a 60 day extension, but permits prospective the deal's not working. The Kremlin wants Russian agricultural exports exempted from western sanctions.

Aaron Rodgers Emerges From the Darkness
"Who's been a top contender for Friday's finest for the last few weeks. Has been the mercurial quarterback of the Green Bay Packers. Aaron Rodgers. Now, deciding that he did not want to retire under the same year Tom Brady did, and he wanted to continue to play. He's following that great packer tradition of leaving the Green Bay Packers and going to New York. It looks like if things can get everything settled. I mean, is there ever, I mean, this is almost like the Howard Hughes of football. I mean, just this reclusive, I'm going to sit in the dark for two weeks and then come back out and talk. And then when he actually came back out this week and said it on the pat McAfee show, well, I'm going to play and I intend to play with the jets. Well, I loved the I don't know if I'm going to try to I think it's a direct one. He said, I came out of the darkness and something was a little bit off. Like, yeah. Okay. The real world, buddy. You know, I just, I feel like every fan of every other team in the NFC north wants to hold a press conference to thank God for getting Aaron Rodgers out of their division. But realistically, it's something that bothers me. I think this is, this goes for pretty much anything. This is not, we don't even have to keep this to just sports, but the idea that he knew that he knows that he has enough power to a if they want to get rid of him, he can take as much time as he wants. If he really wanted to stay and cause a stink and their organization, he could do that as well. But now he gets to make demands to the team that's looking to get him. Think about all the power that that one man has because he can throw a football 60 yards without blinking.

Noble Gold CEO Collin Plume Discusses the Banking Crisis
"Plume from mobile gold. Just tell us about your company, what you're doing. And I just want to encourage our audience. I never tell you what to do with your money, but I can tell you what I'm doing with mine. I'm buying stuff I can touch. Yeah, well, and especially this week, I think that we've seen over the years when people would wire money out of a bank. And sometimes a banks would try to discourage them. They would tell the client as they walked in. They would tell, you know, are you sure? Yeah. Do you really want to do this? But I've had a lot of funny calls from clients where they said, this is the first week that they bought gold from us, that even the bank that they want to discourage them. It's a sending us money. And they know who we are, that makes obviously no who we are. Of course. So it's been we've had a massive influx of people that just want to get out of the banks. Even people that aren't with SVB or stupid valley bank or whatever you want to call it. Even people that are with that bank. Or Credit Suisse, man. Yeah, I mean, credit Swiss is almost two times the size of or two and a half size the size of Silicon Valley. Yeah, it's 1.5 trillion in assets. So that would be a massive collapse. That would change things pretty dramatically in the system. But overall, the banking crisis has been something that I've talked about for a long time. Yeah, you have. And it comes down to banks today. They obviously need to make a return. And a lot of the banks today are struggling to find a decent return, especially ones about treasuries a year ago. But this collapse, I think, made no sense in that when they bought those treasures a year ago, it didn't make any sense that they didn't take the lick back last year, sell some of it. Why would they sell 60% of what they had today? It really was the perfect storm for that bank. And there's 6 or 7 other banks that are in a similar position. And we'll see what happens over the next few weeks. Yeah, and

Is Justice Being Applied Equally?
"One of the ways that we can gauge whether justice is being done is by looking to see if justice is being applied equally. And equally means that if you have two guys who do similar or roughly the same thing, they are charged and prosecuted in the same way and they receive sort of the same penalty or a similar penalty. Yesterday I went on Joe Walsh's podcast. In fact, it's out today. You can see it, you can hear it on Spotify or watch it on YouTube. It was actually a very lively and respectful conversation of a kind that really doesn't happen a whole lot today. But we were talking about January 6th and Joe was pressing me. Well, don't you agree the message was wrong for people to go inside the capitol and I go, yeah, it was. And I said that, look, there are people who committed misdemeanor as they went in there. They didn't mean to break the law, but they did break the law. They didn't do any vandalism. They were completely peaceful and they left shortly thereafter. Well, those people should get a misdemeanor, which basically means you get a warning or some community service, but you're not going to take a 75 year old grandmother. I'm giving you an actual case. In fact, I had Pamela hemphill on the show and lock them up for 60 days because they walked into the capitol for ten minutes. This is just downright outrageous. And you know it's outrageous because it doesn't happen to anyone else. If you look at the massive riots that emerged in Portland in the aftermath of George Floyd, we're now talking about from summer of 2020. Prosecutors dismissed a substantial number. I mean, they dismissed outright more than one third of the cases. Think about it. These are cases that have, in many cases, felony charges for defendants were charged with assaulting federal officers. They just dismissed the charges. They didn't even bring charges against them.

The video shows a Russian SU 27 fighter jet approaching the rear of a U.S. Air Force MQ 9 drone then the fighter jet begins releasing fuel and passes over the drone, which disrupts the drones video transmission, but does not damage the propeller, then the Russian jet approaches the U.S. drone again, the jet begins to release fuel as it gets closer to the drone and passes over it, even closer, this time the jet collides with the U.S. drone, and the drones camera feed is lost for about 60 seconds, when the video returns, it now shows one of the props of the propeller is damaged, Russia claims the drone was flying near the Russian border, and intruded in an area declared off limits by Russian authorities.

I think we're only going to win as Republicans and conservatives if we have great candidates, but we have great ideas. And this is my attempt to try to help that debate. Well,

Bitcoin Mining Stocks Rally As Fed Bails Out SVB
"Again, welcome to the podcast. Thanks for having me. Great. So we'll jump right into it. Let's just start off with low context here. We are recording Monday at 1130 mountain time. I guess one 30 p.m. Eastern Time. And the lay of the land is SVB, Silicon Valley bank was shuttered last week, silver gate bank announced that it was going to voluntarily liquidate itself about two weeks ago now, and then yesterday is Sunday, signature bank. There was announcement that the FDIC and state regulators had decided to shut down that bank. All three of these banks had touches on crypto, notably, silver gate and a signature were used quite often by crypto banks or crypto companies in order to bank. This morning we saw a lot of commercialized banks see their stocks halt trading of the New York Stock Exchange, SOM went down 60, 70%, just more contagion in the banking sector. On the flip side, we saw Bitcoin go up about 10%. It's about $24,000 as of right now. And that means that our favorite mining stocks are also shooting at quite a bit. Reminding stocks are often a beta play on top of Bitcoin, meaning if Bitcoin price goes up, Bitcoin might suck scope a lot. If Bitcoin goes down, mining stocks go down a lot. So right now, as of one 30 eastern our change leaders for the day, of course, scientific up 27% up to 21%, marathon up 18% in digi host of 18%. The smallest gain right now is mawson basically about flat. So big day for mining stocks, anything toss it over to you. It's weird to look at this picture though and try to see why Bitcoin is going up. The steam has made the most sense to me was binance did announce they're buying $1 billion worth of Bitcoin ether and B and B this morning. But besides that it does seem to be some sort of narrative play, but there's not a strong link there at the moment. I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting the level of increase today that came as a bit of a shock with Bitcoin spite all the needs of the week and was right as you said about XV and the issues there and then these should we can sort of the banking institutions which again is mourning the markets initially. We've seen some recovery and of the UK bank HSBC have come in and informed the markets they are prepared to purchase the UK arm of SDB and so that will alleviate new take government having to sort of worry about the deposits for those people in there. So HTTP will sort that out.

The Life Story of Vivek Ramaswamy, 2024 Presidential Candidate
"It starts really bluntly with the strong family foundation, both with my parents and then the family we're building here in Ohio today. My parents came as immigrants in the late 70s and early 80s. They did not have a lot of money when they came here. But I'd say the number one thing I benefited from growing up, and this is probably the biggest competitive advantage anybody could have. Not some big financial inheritance. In some ways, that would have been an encumbrance. I wouldn't have achieved the things that I had in my life. If that's what I had waiting for me. The thing I benefited from was a family foundation that emphasized education. Emphasized merit emphasized excellence. That was what my upbringing was all about. And I'm really grateful to my parents for it. We're trying to give that to our kids now. Anyway, I ended up going to Harvard for college. I studied molecular biology. I pursued a first career in science. I became a first a BioTech investor, then I actually left to found a BioTech company that was designed to challenge the managerial bureaucracy of big pharma. Big pharma is a broken industry. It's a regulated industry by FDA and it tries to imitate FDA. Well, you know what? As a capitalist, I said that creates opportunity. So I developed a number of drugs in areas that big pharma was not focused on. That resulted in actually 5 FDA approved products. I'm incredibly proud of them. One of them is in an FDA approved drug for prostate cancer today. It's a multi-billion dollar business. I built it from scratch. I let it as CEO for 7 years. But I stepped down from my job as a CEO to focus on this different kind of cancer in America. It was a cancer that threatened to kill the dream that allowed me to achieve what I had. It's this new woke religion. This is not even a religion. It's really a cult. It hasn't withstood the test of time. That's why I call it a cult. You know, climate ism, COVID ism, gender ideology, racial wokeism, that really threatened to kill even Martin Luther King's dream from 60 years ago. And so I couldn't do that as a CEO. I would have damaged my company if I was speaking out while I was still CEO. So I stepped aside. I wrote three books, two of them are out already, woke in and nation of victims, a third one's going to come out later this year. But I traveled the country. I've been to a majority of states, and as much as I, you know, was talking about the problem. I'm a man of action.

"Everything. Thinking of everything took more than 25 years and $10 billion. Engineer Amy Lowe explained the challenge. In my mind, the biggest engineering challenge was to build a sunshield capable of shielding the optics, the mirrors and the instrument on web. How do you build something big, the lightweight? The sun shield keeps web cold and dark. Any infrared heat from the sun or earth would blind the telescope. The 5 layers are made of Gossamer sheets, not unlike mylar birthday balloons. The layer facing the sun is layer one and layer one reaches about 230°F. So a pretty warm oven like if you wanted to cook a meringue or something. And on the telescope side. On the telescope side, it gets to negative 370°F. There's a roughly 600° difference. There is between one side of the heat shield and the other. Yes, it's amazing that it's able to do this with nothing more than these layers. The engineering is amazing, but the science may reveal the universe. Since the beginning, the Big Bang, the arrow of time has flown nearly 14 billion years. Webb may see all the way back to the first 100 million. The baby universe. Powerful telescopes that amber straw is an astrophysicist on the project. Telescopes really are time machines. They literally allow us to see into the past. And the reason for that is just due to the nature of how light travels. Light from the sun takes about 8 minutes to get to the earth. So we're seeing the sun as it was 8 minutes ago. And you can sort of think about stepping that further out into the universe. So when we walk out under the stars and look above us, we're not seeing the stars as they are today. We're seeing them as they were, perhaps millions of years ago. Absolutely. Because it took that long for the light to reach the earth. Yes, for sure. How much do we know about the universe? Everything we know about. Everything we can see, me and you, everything on the planet, all the hundreds of billions of other galaxies. All of that only makes up about 5% of the universe. The rest of it that other 95%, we have no idea what it is. That 95%, the unknown is all around us like a ghost. Nearly all the cosmos is made up of what physicists call in desperation, dark matter and dark energy. Never seen scientists infer they must exist because they're the best explanation for how galaxies form and move. So we know that dark matter is sort of the scaffolding of the universe. It's the structure on which galaxies sit. And if there wasn't dark matter, there wouldn't be galaxies in there wouldn't be us. What might the web telescope reveal about dark matter? It's like we have this 14 billion year old story of the universe, but we're missing that first chapter. And Webb was specifically designed to allow us to see those very first galaxies that formed after the Big Bang. Now, galaxies are born, and then they evolve. They change over time. And this way that galaxies change must rely critically on dark matter. And web is going to allow us to observe that process of galaxy evolution in much more detail. The promise of discovery shielded web on what's already been a treacherous journey. It was to launch 7 years ago, but delays come with a machine this ambitious..

We've got to get a workforce in the warehouses and the trucking industry that are complimentary to all of this cargo that is coming in right now. There is a lot of finger pointing. Yes, there is. The truckers blame the terminals. The terminals blame the shippers. The retailers blame the truckers and the shippers. How do you get that contentious group to sit at the table? Stop pointing fingers and actually clear out this backlog. This divide is cultural. Andrew Sullivan has been an influential and controversial conservative voice in America for more than 30 years. He told us that today, he fears the republic itself has threatened by the rigid tribal politics of the left and the right.

Or maybe you should millions of dollars worth of holiday presents and other goods Americans have ordered, are stuck on giant container ships waiting for a space to unload at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Call it a case of freight expectations. There's so much cargo arriving from Asia that some of it has been diverted to other ports in the country. It's led to an epic traffic jam that no one seems able to untangle. And it's revealed deep flaws in America's supply chain. What started as a shop from home binge during the pandemic has had lasting effects. Retailers warn these holidays will be marked by empty shelves, higher prices and lost jobs unless the backlog is cleared. We wanted to see what it's like in the busiest ports in the country. But first, we had to get on board. Space at the Long Beach docs is so tight that when a slot opened up at one a.m., the port pilots wasted no time. They sped off into the dark and so did we. Following captain James dwyer up a rope ladder as he climbed aboard to guide the giant ship, the ever linking to an open birth. We're in bound for LA berth four O 5. Steering the ship through the harbor, he told us pilots are handling twice the usual number of vessels. Right now, we're interested in our slow turn to port to get on to the main channel. With the port glittering in the distance, captain dwyer from the bridge slowly turned the 100,000 ton ship around. Stop engine. Back up. Yes sir. We're going to go start first. Stop. Awesome. We found this feat of parallel parking, unparalleled. Push easy. For the last few yards and inches, captain dwyer stuck his head out the window to guide the behemoth in by sight. Can we let go of the tug line aft? Let go the tug line easy. It turns out docking a ship, the size of three football fields is the easy part. How about that? Getting the goods from here to store shelves is proving to be a lot more daunting. It used to take two days to get cargo off the docks. Now it takes 9. To see why we took to the air with Ryan Peterson's CEO of flex port, a technology company that buys and sells cargo space. Look at our package. This is your power. We flew over the sprawling ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, 40% of all U.S. imports come through here. We saw stacks of marooned containers. Dormant cranes loaded railcars sitting idle, the country's busiest ports packed to the gills. And out at sea, more than 80 ships stretched to the distance, a new record. They used to pull right in, now they can wait weeks. Peterson told us this backlog has been building since the.

"In response, cuvier's maritime lawyer pat mcshane characterized Taylor's allegations as quote pernicious. And he pointed us to a wealth of evidence indicating that the oil was indeed tailors. The national oceanic atmospheric administration, the United States coast guard and have taken all manner of visual evidence of the plumes, coming out of the seabed right at the platform. When you say that's not our oil against this overwhelming evidence, you're playing some different kind of game. Cuvier, a former Louisiana state wrestling champion, says he's not backing down from the fight. You're working to fix a problem that an oil company was responsible for. And now there's suing you, kind of crazy, isn't it? It's intimidation by litigation. Taylor energy also filed legal action against captain Christy luttrell, arguing that she overstepped her coast guard authority. You've been named personally, how do you perceive this situation? As the federal Ensign coordinator, I use my authority to do the right thing and to protect the environment. Feel this Taylor, CEO of Taylor energy declined our interview request. The company said in a statement that it has retained and relied upon the world's foremost experts to study and then recommend a plan of action. We continue to advocate for a response driven by science. Taylor lost its case against cuvee on and in action to recover the $432 million still left in that cleanup trust. 60 minutes has learned that Taylor is now in mediation with the government to conclude all the outstanding litigation at once. Asked why he thinks Taylor resisted so intensely can be cuvee on doesn't hesitate. That's the $432 million question. You know, in this case, it seems like if you follow the money, he'd have a better chance of getting your answer. What would you say to Phyllis tale or if you were sitting right here? I just want to know why. Why are we at this point? Someone that has given so much to our state. Why would you continue to allow this oil spill to happen? And our.

"Torture. It's a violation of the basic human rights. It's not only my family who is suffering. It's more than 140 families who have political prisoners who are innocent and are living this awful situation. Victoria cardenas and Berta Valle can not go back to Nicaragua. I've been because of their appeals for help to Washington and the international community. The women have been charged in absentia, with being traitors to the homeland. So what would happen if you went back to Nicaragua now? Would you be arrested? Definitely be yes. Not only arrested, but if they condemn me, that would be life prison. The violence Nicaragua is fueling an exodus. Tens of thousands of Nicaraguans have fled to Costa Rica and U.S. customs and border protection says about 38,000 Nicaraguans have reached the U.S. border since June, compared to less than 800 people over the same time last year. In August, the State Department announced more sanctions against members of the Ortega regime. But at the same time, the International Monetary Fund approved sending more than $350 million to Nicaragua. It's supposed to help fight the hunger and COVID. What do you think they're going to give them money to? Just to put these people in jail and torture them even more. Last month, members of Congress from both parties demanded the IMF reconsider sending more money to Nicaragua. This is just not acceptable. And called for stronger sanctions against Ortega. The Pentagon has also worn Congress that Russia has been supplying Nicaragua with millions of dollars in military equipment and training, and that Ortega has allowed Russia to build a listening station so close to the U.S.. Haven't we heard this story before? This all sounds very familiar. It is. Going back 35 years to the middle of the Cold War. That is unfortunately the scenario where we are operating. We are living now. Jose Miguel vivanco says with Russia's continued military and financial support, U.S. sanctions will not be enough to convince Daniel Ortega to change course. Ortiz has decided to stay in power for.

"How does a country go from democracy to dictatorship in one generation? It's easier than you may imagine. This is Juan Sebastian chamorro, a Georgetown educated economist, who was planning to challenge the dictator Daniel Ortega for president of Nicaragua. This video was recorded just hours before he was violently taken from his home by mass police officers. In it, he says, if you're seeing this and then I've been captured. This we're saving. I mean, you can see we Americans spend 90% of our time inside buildings. Well, we found a group of young architects who have set out to create a new model of architecture one that is both beautiful and healthy for the people who build and use them. Inspiration, they say they got in Africa, and have now brought home. What you were doing in Rwanda, you were also doing in Haiti, Malawi. And Poughkeepsie. You've all know a harari is a world renowned historian who's looked into the future and has more than a little concerned about what he sees.

People will look back at our era when everything's changing so much and they'll go for God's sake. What happened? They're gonna live in a world that's really, really, really different, and they're going to wonder what we were thinking about and what we were experiencing in our time. For more from this week's conversation, follow the take out with major Garrett on Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. With the death of general Colin Powell this past week, America lost one more of its dwindling supply of wise men and wise women. Washington hands with seasoned perspective, who could tell a president when he is wrong. Like general Powell, they weren't always right, but could be trusted to hold the nation's interest above personal ambition. Sam none, Olympia snow, and George Mitchell came from the Senate, Jim baker was an establishment lawyer. A few were from Wall Street, or like general Powell, from the military. Last Sunday on this broadcast, we heard from another, Robert Gates, who rose through the national security and intelligence communities. Most of them are now retired or gone. We can only wonder if the present state of American politics is capable of producing their successors. I'm Bill Whitaker. We'll be back next week with another edition of 60 minutes.

Keaton's films have collectively grossed billions at the box office. He's played Birdman and Batman and starred in Spider-Man. The irony is that Keaton's real power is portraying the everyman. The salesman, the FBI man, the put upon newspaper man. An actor on a career long crusade against typecasting, Keaton is willfully unpredictable in choosing his roles. But he is consistent in nailing them. And at age 70, he still at it. Find Michael Keaton a character he finds appealing and to borrow a phrase, it's showtime.

"Other members of congress though. We may be uncomfortable. Admitting this disinformation is embedded in our daily life it might seem like a lifetime ago but disinformation featured somewhat prominently in president. Trump's first impeachment part of the investigation involved a russian disinformation campaign pinning the blame for moscow. Two thousand sixteen election interfere ferrets on neighboring ukraine. Ladies and gentlemen. The president elect of the united states. Joseph robinet biden and dr jill biden. President biden didn't use. The word disinformation in his inaugural address. But he sure described it and we must reject the culture in which facts themselves are manipulated and even manufacturing domestically disinformation spreads like an infection through our favorite social media platforms those platforms monitor but also monetize disinformation big difference here. Is that platforms. Because of the way they're set up to feed off of emotion and spew back to you the things that are most likely to engage with as part of their profit model. What would ordinarily in a pre-digital world happened. Just sort of one to your own sort of can self contained thoughts ends up being spread across an incredible network of people and then reinforced by the algorithms of these social media platforms where people are sharing this content. Disinformation has shaped american politics and eroded already shaky faith in national institutions. Most shockingly disinformation fed the violent insurrection at the us capitol where people were beaten and died both because they believed in disinformation and because they were defending the capital from disinformation. Anyone will ever convince me. Joe by got more votes than president trump. When you think about particularly over the last year or so Some of the the claims that the election was stolen that it was rigged that there were deceased foreign zombie dictators attempting to manipulate and float votes throughout swing states. That is an example of disinformation. It is provable. Demonstrably false those propagated. Big lie knew that it was doing so but they advanced that narrative for their own purposes. So textbook case of disinformation describes welcome back chairman. Johnson ranking member peters and members of the committee. Chris cribs was director of the us cybersecurity and infrastructure. Security agency and famously. The last person fired by the president via twitter up until the last days of the trump administration cribs monitored federal cybersecurity systems and help states defend against cyberwarfare particularly around election security. Much of that. Work focused on foreign disinformation campaigns. And we all learned a good deal about russian efforts in twenty sixteen two thousand. Sixteen if you look back at the intelligence community assessment that was released in january of two thousand seventeen it showed a three pronged interference campaign from the russian government. The russian intelligence services. The first prong was to attempt to penetrate election machines election voting systems for purposes. That are still immediately unclear But they certainly got into some voter-registration databases. The second prong of the campaign was to push disinformation. In this case to the american people for the purposes of of dividing us the prong was something called a hack and leak operation. The email account of john podesta top advisor to hillary clinton was act damaging emails or released. That's actually another type of information operation. That's mala information.

"For close observation on glass slides. This biomedical treasure trove is being digitized. Using artificial intelligence amongst these are tissue samples from people who died from the spanish flu pandemic. Dr moncur is examining the current pandemic through the lens of the past. the nineteen eighteen. Spanish flu took more american. Soldiers lives in world war one than were killed in combat. The military never forgot this is from the nineteen eighteen endemic. I got it is and the scientific community needed to understand why it was so deadly and this tissue was invaluable because it's allowed us to characterize the virus at a genetic level And from there some incredible experiments happened. That allowed the virus to actually be reconstructed in two thousand five scientist at the tissue repository mount sinai school of medicine and the cdc made headlines around the world when they resurrected the deadly nineteen eighteen virus. That's dr james crowe and infectious disease researcher. At vanderbilt joined the team he went looking for survivors of the nineteen eighteen flu hunting for life human. Antibodies the proteins manufactured by our bodies to fight disease and lo and behold. If we took blood cells out of these nearly one hundred year old people they still had immune cells that were circulating in their body that had reacted in nineteen eighteen influenza. That was one of those moments for me. When i just said. Wow that's very powerful and interesting so you find the antibodies in survivors. Who almost one hundred years old or more then one. Well once we have the genetic sequence which is the dna sequence. It's a string of letters that encodes the antibody essentially we have the recipe to make it again. And now we have a drug substance that we can use to prevent or treat that infection doctor crow and cdc scientist infected lab animals with the deadly nineteen eighteen virus and cured them. And what happened. Well the antibody like a heat seeking missile floats around. In the animal finds the virus latches onto the virus and inactivates stops in. Its tracks for us after we had done that. We realized a library of everything you've ever seen. Then we started thinking as medical researchers we could find the cure. Virtually anything that ever occurred on the planet in twenty seventeen. Dr crow entered a darpa grant. Competition to produce ended body antidotes fast enough to stop a pandemic. Dr matt hepburn described the program at a ted talk last year. Twenty thousand doses in sixty days. Basically we're talking about engineering. Antibodies that are so effective that you get near immediate protection once they're administered and you interrupt transmission in those communities. If you can interrupt it then potentially you can head off the pandemic. When we first saw the grant call that was inviting people to respond. We thought it was ridiculous. We were getting antibodies. Six to twenty four months which we thought was pretty spectacular and they put the call out for sixty days and we decided that can't be done for us at darpa if the experts are laughing at you and saying it's impossible you're in the right space so you actually sitting there sixty days sit a stop watch. Yes we say. Here's your money but then hears the stop watch. We're gonna do a capability demonstration jargon words for what it means you stop watch and show.

"The director of national intelligence and secretary of defense released a highly anticipated unclassified report about something the pentagon calls unidentified aerial phenomena or ap more commonly known as ufo's the government's grudging acknowledgment of one hundred. Forty four mysterious sightings documented by our military comes after decades of public. Denial but as we first reported in may whatever is trespassing in our skies and seas poses a serious safety risk to our servicemen and women as well as our national security. So what you're telling me is that u. f. o.'s unidentified flying objects are real bill. Think we're beyond that already. The government has already stated for the record that they're real. I'm not telling you that. The united states government is telling you that lewis elizondo spent twenty years running military intelligence operations worldwide in afghanistan. The middle east and guantanamo. He hadn't given ufo's a second thought until two thousand eight that's when he was asked to join something at the pentagon called the advanced aerospace threat. Identification program or eight tip. The mission of a tip was quite simple. It was to collect analyze information involving anomalous aerial vehicles. What of an accurate. You you call them. Ufo's we call them you. Ap's you knew how this sounds it. Sounds nutty wacky look. I'm not a tony that that doesn't sound wacky. What i'm telling you it's real. The question is what is it what its intentions orders. Capabilities buried away in the pentagon atef was part of a twenty two million dollar program sponsored by then senate majority leader. Harry reid to investigate. Ufo's when ella zondo took over in two thousand ten he focused on the national security implications of unidentified aerial phenomena documented by u s servicemembers. Imagine a technology that can do six to seven hundred g forces that can fly at thirteen thousand miles an hour that it can evade radar and that can fly through air and water and possibly space and by the way has no obvious. Scientists repulsion no wings no control surfaces and yet still can defy the natural effects of earth's gravity.

We realized that there circa early nineties fax machine only had a page buffer. That could hold about half the results we sent so we literally went back to best buy got another curbside delivery and drove up in new fax machine up to that county public health office because they didn't have the budget to buy their own new one.

Straight ahead specially designed driving challenges and a block design test to help accompany assess potential employees visual problem solving abilities. So people have done research on this for mightily. Kunda is a computer scientist at the frist center. So this is a wearable tracker right here and here are little tiny cameras. And they're actually facing inward and they're recording. Your is the infrared cameras detect where your pupils are pointing. You can start as soon as i turn the page so dan berger a data scientist at the center who's on the autism spectrum volunteer to take the block design test to compare his visual problem solving abilities with mine. Great for ten minutes. He assembled a series of increasingly complex block patterns and go yes next. It was my turn. Dan made it look easy for me. It wasn't this point. My head is hurting. Should it be hurting. I completed the puzzles. But dan did them faster and was more efficient. How can you tell look at the square on the right of your screen. Dan methodically placed the blocks left to right line by line and amazingly. He usually only had to look at the sample pattern once before placing a block. Why not. i wasn't organized at all. I place blocks randomly and had to look back and forth thirteen times at the sample pattern before figuring out how to place the last block mind is a sieve. Essentially like i'm not holding onto any of that information so i'm constantly having refer back to the original is dan he memorize it. Yes very interested in a completely different way processing information or trying to solve problems. Yes yeah it is. Mightily kunda hopes employers might use test like this to more accurately assess capabilities of people on the autism spectrum. Imagine like tsa baggage screening something super visual or when you're expecting batteries. I'm coming off the line for quality control. I'm there's there's lots of different jobs that this is relevant for the motto. We put things like then. Burgers unique abilities caught the attention of cave on stanton astrophysics professor at vanderbilt. His son is on. The autism spectrum helped start the frist center. What did you want then here. The center i brought him on board with my astrophysics research group originally because we were dealing with these massive amounts of data from space telescopes. And i needed help from someone who had dan's unique talents to help us look for patterns and data. So what are the skills that you have is is looking at large amounts of information. I think i think differently from other people. This is a picture of the seven sisters. Dench challenge was to make sense of data from nasr's keppler telescope his solution. He built an interactive software program called filter graph using dan software tool we were just able to slice and dice. The data spin it around in different ways until something visually popped. The top was a breakthrough in astrophysics ends. Filter graph produced a new way of judging the size and age of stars. Based on. How vigorously they flicker in the night sky. Dan may be too modest. Tell you but he is. The inventor of record of this platform and nasa has licensed it. Nasa is using photograph that you invented the brilliance. That dan that you have that's going to become increasingly important. There's only going to be more and more data coming down the road and if like people who can understand the data that's going to be more important. There's a lot of people who are unemployed. Who are on the spectrum. Do you have any advice for them. Oh gosh i feel like there are a lot of strength to Being on the spectrum. And i think imagination if trade. So that's the kind of opportunity that we found about thirty large companies actively seeking employees on the autism spectrum including microsoft j. p. morgan ford but there are still so many people with autism who are unemployed and the numbers are growing in the next decade at drexel university estimate as many as one point one million americans with autism we'll turn eighteen back and autonomy works outside chicago. Brian sarah brennan. Philip and eric told us they hope more companies will start to recognize the untapped potential of people on the spectrum. What is having a job mean to you for me. Having a job is important because it provides me with much needed structure in my life. Having the job is important to me. Because otherwise i would become very financially depend on my parents asking them. Can you buy me this k- by me that it's just been nice to be able to go home and talk to my parents about what i did during the day. They must be very proud of it. Yes they always say. They're not surprised. So now holly williams on aside for sixty minutes tonight we have a story of solidarity hope and ultimately survival in the face of adversity. It took place more than fifty years ago but when it was rediscovered loss g it caused a sensation as we. I told you earlier this year. It's a tale of a group of school boys stranded on a remote and deserted island for more than fifteen months. It might remind you of the famous novel. Lord of the flies by william golding. But as you'll see the outcome of this real life story could not have been more different. The story begins in nineteen sixty five mono tau and five of his friends was studying to boarding school in tana. An island nation in the pacific ocean board rebellious and yearning for adventure. They stole a traditional whaling boat and with reckless abandon. They set off fiji. Did it have an engine. No no engine. But mono isn't fiji about five hundred miles from tong little bit less. Did you have a map or compass. No teenagers might have been brought up on the sea but they soon figured out. They'd made a terrible mistake on the first night of violence storm ripped the sales from the mosques and tore off the boats rutta for a week. There crippled boat drifted aimlessly seventeen year. Old a fatal. The oldest of the group told us they were convinced they die. No food no water. We was Says tracing around by the wind and after eight days we saw the island it was a volcanic island jutting out from the sea the boat needed a wave sent it crashing into the rocky leaving it in pieces. The exhausted teenagers struggle the shore. The only thing we do grabbing each to get it see a prayer. Then you go to school boys later discovered. They drifted a hundred miles from where they'd set off and had landed on the island of utter on maps. Nothing more than an uninhabited.
