What happened on October the twenty eighth, fifteen thirty eight
on the island of Hespianola. It's where they Dominican Republic
and Haiti Yar. Today, the Spanish opened up the first
university in the America's University Dad Santo Thomas Diachino is
in Santo Domingo. Where do you think they went for
spring break? You know it closed in eighteen oh one. Yeah,
but the oldest university in the world is still open. Yeah,
(03:17):
it's the University of Bologna in Italy. Yeah, it started
in ten eighty eight. Do you have a shop at Macy's?
Eighteen fifty eight, R. H. Macy and Company opened their
first department store on Sixth Avenue in New York. First
day sales were eleven dollars and six cents. Now, when
Grover Cleveland was Governor of New York. He vetoed the
bill that said that New York could pay for the
pedestal for the Statue of Liberty. Yeah, needed his big
(03:38):
pedalfield to stand on. Since he vetoed that, they had
to hold a whole bunch of fundraising events and it
all came down to private donations. But yeah, they finally
were able to build that pedestal so I could build
a Statue of Liberty in eighteen eighty six. Now Grover
he was President of the United States. Now now the
Statue of Liberty opened up today. Yeah, it made He
made a really big spectacle of the thing. He was
(03:59):
so proud he was dedicating it. And you would have
thought he actually did something to help it out. No,
he didn't do squad, but New York City did. They
really went all out to celebrate the statue. They held
their first ticker tape parade nineteen oh six. A Belgian
and British mining company. They created what today is the
Democratic Republic of Congo now yesterday. In nineteen nineteen, President
(04:20):
Woodrow Wilson he vetoed the Volstead Act, so that meant
there would be no prohibition of alcohol today in nineteen nineteen,
Congress override his veto, so there would be prohibition of
alcohol in football. And let's go to the NFL. Nineteen
thirty four. Yeah, these are actual NFL football teams, the
(04:41):
Brooklyn Dodgers and the Pittsburgh Pirates. They played the first
penalty free game in NFL history. Now, the Dodgers, they
won twenty one to three. Now, if you're one of
there have been four penalty free games in NFL history.

nineteen thirty eight, and one in nineteen forty. I think
we know when the rest started getting paid. Keupan missile crisis.
In nineteen sixty two, the Soviet Union leader Chris jeff
(05:04):
He sent a letter to President Kennedy. It said that
he would tear down all those missile bases in Cuba
that they were building. But in order to say faced
the United States, they had to say that they were
doing a whole bunch of stuff too. Now, the United
States didn't have to do it, but they had to
say they were going to do it. So okay. Now,
I don't know if the Jewish people really cared. But
in nineteen sixty five Pope Paul the six, he proclaimed
(05:25):
that Jews were not collectively guilty for the crucifixion. I
guess he wanted to ease some of that Jewish guilt. Tacoma, Washington,
in nineteen eighty eight, a jury awarded a woman one
hundred and forty seven thousand dollars of being seduced by
our church minister. So since she got paid when that
being a prostitute. Now as politically correct and woke as
our universities are today, don't you kind of wish Trump

would just do this? Back in nineteen ninety three, in
the country of Columbia, their president, he was speaking at
the Columbia National University, as the largest school in the country. Well,
the students kept interrupting him as he's trying to talk,
