Bruno Wyndaele praat met Geert Mak over zijn boek 'Wisselwachter'. Net nu de relaties tussen Europa en de VS onder hoogspanning staan komt Geert Mak met een boek over Harry Hopkins, de 'wisselwachter' van de titel. Nu grotendeels vergeten, bepaalde deze plattelandsjongen vanuit het Witte Huis mee het lot van Amerika, én dat van het oude continent. Het boek is een tijdsbeeld van de jaren 1933-1945. Maar bevat ook verbazende parallellen met vandaag.

Het waren andere tijden, waarin een Amerikaanse president de democratie niet ondermijnde maar vooruithielp. Natuurlijk kwam Franklin D. Roosevelts hulp aan de Europese democratie niet alleen voort uit idealisme, maar ook uit eigenbelang: een voet tussen de deur in Europa paste in het plan van Franklin D. Roosevelt en zijn diplomatieke adviseur Harry Hopkins. In Wisselwachter beschrijft Geert Mak hun politieke avontuur in Amerika en Europa, met nadruk op de rol van Roosevelts onbekende rechterhand Hopkins. ‘Ik zag tijdens mijn onderzoek steeds meer gelijkenissen met de huidige situatie in Europa, Amerika en de wereld.'Historicus en publicist Tony Judt keek met de ogen van een ‘universalistisch sociaal-democraat' naar de twintigste eeuw. Zijn analyses waren scherpzinnig en bevatten waarschuwingen: Europa mocht de lessen van de jaren dertig en de oorlog niet vergeten. Judt stierf in 2010 en wordt nu node gemist, zegt recensent Wim Berkelaar. Hij las Judts boek De vergeten twintigste eeuw en is onder de indruk van zijn analyse van het Israël post-1967: ‘Israël kenmerkt zich door een macho-slachtofferschap. Het is een staat die maar niet volwassen wil worden en blijft hangen in een soort pubertijd van overheidswege.'

Is the Left taking the bait? While many in the legacy media continue to berate Elon Musk for his role in defunding bloated federal programs and agencies, Donald Trump remains largely unscathed. Is this part of a larger strategy by the president, wonders Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “He's more legitimate—or he has more statutory legitimacy—than earlier presidential advisors, like Harry Hopkins, who moved into the White House under the FDR administration, or Bernard Baruch, who basically ran two world wars, in terms of domestic production, under Woodrow Wilson and FDR. So, let's just dispel the idea that he's doing anything unusual. ... “As far as the executive orders that created the DOGE program and eliminated USAID—that was perfectly legal in itself—USAID was created by John F. Kennedy in 1961 by an executive order. There was a statutory direction for the president to disperse foreign aid into a comprehensive body, but it didn't say USAID—he could do whatever he wanted. ... "And so, Donald Trump has decided to end an autonomous USAID and fold it into the State Department for disaster relief or poverty relief or famine relief. ...  “All Donald Trump is doing is saying, ‘I don't believe the impoundment act is legal. We'll see what the Supreme Court says—but I'm just following the precedent that Joe Biden did.' But now, the shoe's on the other foot."   For Victor's latest thoughts, go to: https://victorhanson.com/   Don't miss out on Victor's latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

This is a speech from 1963 about a very serious issue, but done in a somewhat stand-up way by military industrial complex whistleblower, Major George Racey Jordan George Racey Jordan (January 4, 1898 – May 5, 1966) was an American military officer, businessman, lecturer, activist, and author. He first gained nationwide attention in December 1949 when he testified to the United States Congress about wartime Lend-Lease deliveries to the Soviet Union, in the process implicating Harry Hopkins and other high officials in the transfer of nuclear and other secrets to the USSR. ******************************************************** Find all my links here https://linktr.ee/whatistruthpodcast To catch a live show, Please Follow me on ROKFIN! https://rokfin.com/weezy Please rate 5 stars if you enjoy the content!

Spanning the years 1944-1948, David Roll's newest book looks at the struggles of a relatively unknown Missouri senator, Harry Truman, who had served the U.S. as vice president for only 82 days before FDR's death on April 12, 1945.

Harry Hopkins is co-founder and CIO of Viewgol, a medical billing technology software and services company based in Dallas, Texas. Viewgol was started in 2017 by three founders who got the product and revenues going before hiring additional staff. Their revenue cycle management (RCM) analytics software reveals medical billing problems and missed revenue opportunities at physician offices in the US. As the company expanded its service offerings, Viewgol grew very quickly, from three employees in 2019 to almost a thousand employees at the end of 2023. Viewgol was acquired in October 2023 by CPSI, a public medical billing solutions company, for a reported $67 million in cash and earnouts.  Learn more at practicalfounders.com.

Before email, when long distance telephone calls were difficult and expensive, people wrote letters, often several each day. Today, those letters provide an intimate and revealing look at the lives and loves of the people who wrote them. When the author is a brilliant writer who lived an exciting, eventful life, the letters are especially interesting. Martha Gellhorn was a strong-willed, self-made, modern woman whose journalism, and life, were widely influential at the time and cleared a path for women who came after her. An ardent anti-fascist, she abhorred "objectivity shit" and wrote about real people doing real things with intelligence and passion. She is most famous, to her enduring exasperation, as Ernest Hemingway's third wife. Long after their divorce, her short tenure as "Mrs. Hemingway" from 1940 to 1945 invariably eclipsed her writing and, consequently, she never received her full due. Gellhorn's work and personal life attracted a disparate cadre of political and celebrity friends, among them, Sylvia Beach, Ingrid Bergman, Leonard Bernstein, Norman Bethune, Robert Capa, Charlie Chaplin, Chiang Kai-shek, Madame Chiang, Colette, Gary Cooper, John Dos Passos, Dorothy Parker, Maxwell Perkins, Eleanor and Franklin D. Roosevelt, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Orson Welles, H.G. Wells -- the people who made history in her time and beyond. Yours, for Probably Always: Martha Gellhorn's Letters of Love and War 1930-1949 (Firefly Books, 2022) is a curated collection of letters between Gellhorn and the extraordinary personalities that were her correspondents in the most interesting time of her life. Through these letters and the author's contextual narrative, the book covers Gellhorn's life and work, including her time reporting for Harry Hopkins and America's Federal Emergency Relief Administration in the 1930s, her newspaper and magazine reportage during the Spanish Civil War, World War II and the Vietnam War, and her relationships with Hemingway and General James M. Gavin late in the war, and her many lovers and affairs. Gellhorn's fiction of the time sold well: The Trouble I've Seen (1936) -- her Depression-Era stories based on the FERA activities, with an introduction by H.G. Wells; A Stricken Field (1940) -- a novel inspired by the German-Jewish refugee crisis and set in 1938 Czechoslovakia; The Heart of Another (1941) -- stories edited by Maxwell Perkins; and The Wine of Astonishment (1948) -- her novel about the liberation of Dachau, which she reported for Collier's. Gellhorn's life, reportage, fiction and correspondence reveal her passionate advocacy of social justice and her need to tell the stories of "the people who were the sufferers of history." Renewed interest in her life makes this new collection, packed with newly discovered letters and pictures, fascinating reading.

Marshall and Derek discuss the role FDR's lieutenants (Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace) played in shepherding the United States through the Great Depression and World War II, how the structure of the federal bureaucracy and Executive Branch has shifted since FDR's presidency, and how the lessons of the 1930s and 1940s apply to today's challenges.

FDR and the Great Depression | In this episode of How to Fix Democracy, author and historian Derek Leebaert provides a revisionist account of President Franklin Roosevelt and four members of his Cabinet. According to Leebaert, the 1920s were beset by economic distress and labor unrest that culminated in the Great Depression. Supported by Frances Perkins, Harold Ickes, Henry Wallace and Harry Hopkins, the Roosevelt presidency provided new solutions to much of America's endemic vulnerability, inequality, and instability. Leebaert describes the President as a deeply complex leader—a man of steely ambitions —who worked with the four Cabinet officials to escape the Depression and prepare the United States for world leadership.   Derek Leebaert won the biennial 2020 Truman Book Award for "Grand Improvisation". His previous books include "Magic and Mayhem: The Delusions of American Foreign Policy from Korea to Afghanistan" and "To Dare and to Conquer: Special Operations and the Destiny of Nations", both Washington Post Best Books of the Year. He was a founding editor of the Harvard/MIT journal International Security and is a cofounder of the National Museum of the U.S. Army. He holds a D.Phil from Oxford and lives in Washington, D.C.

As the President of the United States prepared to travel to Morocco for a wartime conference, his closest aide and advisor wrote down just why he was going to make the arduous trip. Franklin Roosevelt, wrote Harry Hopkins, “was going to Casablanca ‘because he wanted to make a trip. He was tired of having other people, particularly myself, speak for him around the world. He wanted to see our troops, he was sick of people telling him that it was dangerous to ride in airplanes. He liked the drama of it. But above all, he wanted to make a trip.” What Churchill called the most important Allied conference took place over ten days in January 1943. In a strange combination of resort accommodations, surrounded by barbed wire, anti-aircraft guns, and sandbags, a no-holds barred exchange laid out plans for the next year, and the years to come.  James Conroy describes the antecedents to the conference, the lengthy trip to get there, and what happened in his new book The Devils Will Get No Rest: FDR, Churchill, and the Plan That Won the War. A practicing lawyer until 2020, James Conroy's first book Our One Common Country, was a finalist for the Gilder Lehrman Lincoln Prize; his second, Lincoln's White House, shared the Lincoln Prize.

Today, we're joined by author Derek Leebaert to discuss "UNLIKELY HEROES: Franklin Roosevelt, His Four Lieutenants, and the World They Made". The book discuss Roosevelt's only four lieutenants, Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace, each with their own struggles and also considered "outsiders" for reason or another. We discuss their lives and roles as Roosevelt's lieutenants and the impact each left on the presidency.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5189985/advertisement

Derek Leebaert says, in the introduction to his newest book, that "Only four people served at the top echelon of Franklin Roosevelt's presidency, from the frightening early months of Spring 1933 until he died in April of 1945 and, in their different ways, they were as wounded as he." The book is titled "Unlikely Heroes" and Mr. Leebaert puts the spotlight on people who served FDR for his entire presidency: Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace. They all had a major role in creating and running what is known in history as the New Deal.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Such was the prestige of cabinet members during the Roosevelt Administration that a 19-gun salute accompanied their arrival to a city. Joining Richard Aldous this week is author of Unlikely Heroes: Franklin Roosevelt, His Four Lieutenants, and the World They Made (https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250274694/unlikelyheroes), Derek Leebaert, who shines a new light on FDR's inner circle of four—Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace—and FDR himself, who together helped usher the nation through the Great Depression and the Second World War.

Derek Leebaert is the author of Unlikely Heroes, an account of Pres. Roosevelt and his 4 closest associates: Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace, and how they would forever change the world. In many ways, history tends to repeat itself, and recognizing patterns of the past gives us the opportunity to shape a better future.   FDR was a titan. He was elected president for 4 terms and to this day remains the longest-serving president of the US. He was known for his fairness and desire for equality for all, an essential factor that got him the Republicans' vote every single time.   A look into his 4 lieutenants reveals much more about the myths that have plagued FDR's presidencies since then. Derek talks about FDR's New Deal, the secret military build-up that happened in the 1930s, and how each lieutenant played a critical role in getting America through the mayhem of the time.    Derek Leebaert won the biennial 2020 Truman Book Award for Grand Improvisation. His previous books include Magic and Mayhem and To Dare and to Conquer, both Washington Post Best Books of the Year. He was a founding editor of the Harvard/MIT journal International Security and is a co-founder of the National Museum of the United States Army.

Derek Leebaert—historian, strategist, organizational leadership and management consultant, and bestselling author of a series of critically acclaimed books—has written an outstanding and timely new work: Unlikely Heroes: Franklin Roosevelt, His Four Lieutenants, and the World They Made.In this episode of the Serve to Lead podcast, Leebaert discusses the book, its genesis and its uncanny relevance in our historic moment.Publisher's SummaryOnly four people served at the top echelon of President Franklin Roosevelt's Administration from the frightening early months of spring 1933 until he died in April 1945, on the cusp of wartime victory. These lieutenants composed the tough, constrictive, long-term core of government. They built the great institutions being raised against the Depression, implemented the New Deal, and they were pivotal to winning World War II.Yet, in their different ways, each was as wounded as the polio-stricken titan. Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace were also strange outsiders. Up to 1933, none would ever have been considered for high office. Still, each became a world figure, and it would have been exceedingly difficult for Roosevelt to transform the nation without them. By examining the lives of these four, a very different picture emerges of how Americans saved their democracy and rescued civilization overseas. Many of the dangers that they all overcame are troublingly like those America faces today.About Derek LeebaertDerek Leebaert won the biennial 2020 Truman Book Award for Grand Improvisation.

De nieuwe Amerikaanse president Joe Biden komt naar Europa. Hij heeft zijn Russische collega Vladimir Poetin uitgenodigd voor een topontmoeting. Die vindt op 16 juni 2021 plaats in Genève.In deze aflevering van Betrouwbare Bronnen bespreekt Jaap Jansen met PG Kroeger de historische, symbolische en politieke finesses van deze top. Zelfs die Zwitserse stad als locatie zit vol symboliek.Waarom nam Poetin deze invitatie meteen aan? En wat deed hij vooraf om Biden een helder signaal te geven dat hij wel degelijk begrijpt dat het tijdperk-Trump voorbij is? PG analyseert de opvallende manoeuvres van beide presidenten, hun tamelijk onbehouwen taal over elkaar en de wending die nu plaats lijkt te vinden in hun wederzijdse benadering. En is deze in het licht van de geschiedenis wel zo plotseling en onverwacht?De historie van dit soort topontmoetingen is kleurrijk en leerzaam. Sommige zijn bijna helemaal vergeten. Andere kregen in de decennia die volgden een bijna mythisch aura, terwijl hun realiteit prozaïscher was. En sommige presidenten wisten op en rond zo’n top belangrijke dingen te realiseren terwijl zijzelf in de geschiedschrijving bepaald geen gunstige reputatie hebben.Misschien wel de meest belangrijke topontmoeting met de grootste directe gevolgen voor de wereld was de allereerste. Dat was trouwens meer een soort proto-top van de naaste medewerker Franklin Delano Roosevelt met de ‘Vozhd’, de wrede tiran in het Kremlin, Jozef Stalin. PG Kroeger vertelt hoe ´FDR´ zijn rechterhand Harry Hopkins in juli 1941 plotseling naar Moskou liet reizen.Zelf ontmoette Roosevelt als eerste president de Sovjetleider twee jaar later. Maar dat gebeurde niet zonder een uitvoerige briefwisseling vooraf, de nodige onderlinge spanningen en heel wat ´armpje drukken´ over waar en hoe Stalin en hij elkaar zouden ontmoeten. Ook deze top - uiteindelijk gehouden in Teheran - lijkt wat vergeten, vooral omdat de volgend in Jalta zo veel discussie losmaakte.In de podcast worden topontmoetingen in Wenen, Parijs en Helsinki besproken van presidenten van zeer verschillende herkomst en politieke kleur. Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Reagan en Trump probeerden elk op hun geheel eigen manier een dialoog met het Kremlin te bereiken. Waarom nota bene ´JFK´ en ´the Donald´ daarbij een beetje op elkaar leken blijkt dan ook nog. De aanstaande top in Genève staat in een rijke traditie en Biden sluit opvallend aan bij die andere ontmoeting in tijden van grote geopolitieke spanningen, de top van Reagan en Gorbatsjov in datzelfde Genève in 1985. Zou hij met Poetin ook bij een haardvuur nader tot elkaar komen? Ontstaat ook nu een soort ‘bromance’?***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door donaties van luisteraars via de site Vriend van de Show. Sponsoring of adverteren is ook mogelijk.

On May 10 1940, the Germans invaded the Low Countries, Winston Churchill became prime minister, and Harry Hopkins moved in to the White House. This remarkable man was President Roosevelt's closest confidante until the end of the war. A principal architect of the New Deal, he was the president's first envoy to meet Churchill and was sent off to meet Stalin too. But what also impresses his nominator, Jonathan Dimbleby, is his courage - Harry Hopkins had stomach cancer and died in 1946. Features biographer David Roll, author of The Hopkins Touch, plus impressive archive of Hopkins on the BBC. Presented by Matthew Parris Produced in Bristol by Miles Warde

O pequeno Anselmo anda por ali a vender amendoins em cestos de vime, com o seu pregão: «Tá Quentinho!

As we commemorate National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day and the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor we return to history and World War II with two important stories when journalist Kathryn Smith, author of THE GATEKEEPER: MISSY LEHAND, FDR AND THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE PARTNERSHIP THAT DEFINED A PRESIDENCY and historian Marc Wortman, author of 1941, FIGHTING THE SHADOW WAR join Halli on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show, Wednesday, 3 pm ET at Halli Casser-Jayne dot com.In THE GATEKEEPER, Journalist Kathryn Smith tells the story of Marguerite  Alice “Missy” LeHand the savvy personal secretary President Franklin Delano Roosevelt considered one of the most vital, and certainly one of the most loyal members of his inner circle. Missy fulfilled the crucial duties of Chief of Staff long before the position was formally created, working with FDR for more than twenty years. She was also FDR's confidante (LOVER?), his support when he contracted polio, and his close friend. People in Washington, D.C., knew one indisputable truth: if you wanted to get to FDR, you had to go through Missy.A divided America? A country reluctant to go to war? A country turning its back on genocide? The year 2016? No, the year 1941, the focus of historian Marc Wortman's book 1941, FIGHTING THE SHADOW WAR. Conventional wisdom dictates that the US entered World War II in retaliation for the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 8, 1941. Historian Marc Wortman sees it another way, revealing the ways in which America played an increasingly significant and clandestine role in the war in the months and years prior to officially joining the battle. Churchill, Lindbergh, the Roosevelt family, FDR advisor and emissary Harry Hopkins, journalists William Shirer and Philip Johnson, Wortman weaves the smart, suspenseful history that reads like an epic novel.
