Ep. 224 - Can Democrats Recover From 2016?

2016-12-09 | 🔗
Democrats falling apart, media losing its mind, and the mailbag!
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Senator Harry Reed is one of the worst liars ever to grace the national stage he cues twenty twelve presidential candidate, Mitt Romney cheating on his taxes, without any evidence than celebre in his license, had helped prevent Rami from becoming president. He called George we Bush a liar who betrayed the country? He said paying tax, whose voluntary, which is weird sense, is not attack the code. Brothers is unamerican and admit he'd. Rather let a child with cancer suffer then funded government feet, piecemeal, his Senate tenure was marked by conflicting cram down from the Obama CARE fiasco to the destruction of the seller. Buster, both by the way will now backfire on Democrats. Yet there was real receiving accolades yesterday, for I suppose the grand tenure in the Senate and there he was in the pages in the New York Times lecturing Americans about of all things, the supposes scourge of fake news, the New York Times, twitted quote much of the report, stability for separating, what's real and what's fake, Wolf will fall on Democrats Rights, Harry Red, Here are some of reeds other sterling advice in the New York Times. Close Republicans, I say recognise that
between campaigning in governing and between knee jerk oppositions, the accomplishment of the Obama Europe. Really Reed spent his entire career opposing republican policy, a knee jerk fashion, and what Abolition of the Obama era are worth upholding exactly reach specifically it's a bombing ere. He says it's a dramatic misreading of your mandate to destroy it. Even Obama never had a clear mandate to pass a bombing there and the public spending Xxix years, destroying the Democrats from history. Their mandate in passing that monstrosity Red wrote to Democrats It has never been more important to stand up for the things we believe and we are entering a new gilded age nobody's gotten richer I've government and read. He spent his entire life in government making about a hundred ninety thousand bucks a year and now he's worth somewhere between three and ten million dollars. The Clinton's our wealth It is a political back. Scratching too, he wrote quote much the responsibility for separating what is real and what is fake will fallen. Democrats again, this is not really is one of the worst lies in the history of the Senate. He also Roquat. When Democrats pick their fights next year, they can do so knowing that win or lose they will be debating in the Senate, and we
more open and more transparent, and this is defending the idiotic move of newcomers, of austrian cabinet picks. Its crippled is party going into an era of republican leadership in the White House in Congress, Red Wilson, evidently improve America by leaving the Senate for accounting. Legacy Latchet remind Americans. Just lame Democrats should not be trusted with power and then Shapiro is the bench appear. Russia oh so much to get to today here on the bench grip. What we're doing the mailbag today we're broadcasting on Friday, obviously because we missed a show earlier in day, but we will be starting to do some Friday shows in the near future. We have some surprises planned for that, which is why I need some. Ideally wired icon, but first before you today show we have to say low to our advertisers over at wink. So this is indeed the company that you go to, for wines. You don't know anything about line right. You know you don't know what wine to bring your friends housewives really expensive. You don't know the difference between
Bernay and Marilla, you don't know any of the stuff, but what you do know is what you like in terms of the food you like to go over to wink dot com, you go over their website, its wink dot com Andy. It's try winked icon. Rather, you gotta, try wink dot com and when you go there, they have this little survey word ass, the kinds of foods that you like what kind of food combinations you I can, then they pick a line for you from their stop it is the lines themselves. Lines are really really affordable the outcome of staff members have had their wine and given the quality of the podcast you, they drink wine all the time, but now they usually have it only in their off hours, but they they say, The wine is really really good and evil. The wine party here that was that was really spectacular, apparently ends. They say the products just great again, if you are anything that will only one affordable line bring over your friends house. Make sure that you don't look like a fool. Wink is the place. No, it's try. Wink dot com, Slash Ben, try, winked outcomes, lifespan, you get twenty bucks off right now. When you go to try wink Icons lifespan even cover the shipping its poorest
life begins here palate and the line is apparently really really. Good. All of my staffers swear by it, which means that either ones go to their agardh already. So today we begin with the fact the Democrats have. Really given up the only tool they ever had for being able to hold Republicans in check and in number one day there their biggest tool for holding republicans in check for a long time was the media. They label The media would be able to stop republicans from being terrible and vindictive and and republican, now, they ve blown all credibility, and you can see- barely blunder credibility over this whole thing. They ve been discussing our fake news, fake news, this big news that for those who have missed This controversy democrats have been saying now since the election, that the reasons tromp was because people believe fake news, now look? I haven't really distinguish between headlines just flat out not true and messages. They don't like someone Trump says things like rats Coal. Islam is something Democrats, never say in its a threat. Then
people will say: let's fake news for Democrats say the word radical Islam red. Overall message is true and he was making an overstatement, but obviously hidden mean for it to be taken literally fake news is likely to get pizza, gaiters fake news, because there's no evidence that pizza gates is real, that there is this. This sex slavery ring being run out of this this pizzeria in Middle, a Washington DC. But the Democrats Dunbar to make this distinction and they never have. In fact they ve brought they they actually promulgated fake news, eighteen rate, as long as it helps them, that's actually destroyed their capacity to be faction, There's nobody trusts you to check the facts. If you're the person who promulgated half the false stories in the first place, the same people who complain about fake news, but who are spending literally months talking about hands up? Don't you rather's that famous picture from CNN of all their anchors doing hands up, don't shoot and those people on CNN those same exact. People are now complaining about the scourge of fake news, the drove from the presidency well at a certain what we stop listening to them, and that was real.
Four Donald Trump, both because demand we didn't listen to them when slandered him at all When do we didn't listen them when they told the truth from which worked out really well for Donald Trump, it means that I'm going to have to find new sources of information people that you trusted to bring you the news, my general rule of thumb. Is I mean, aside from the basic rules, like everything, has to be double source, my general If thou my news to trust news outlets atrocities, do they ever print stories that are in their own economic self interest. Today, Prince stories. They don't that run counter to their own narrative, ever print stories that debunk things that you know that they believe in that's usually pretty good indicator. So I think the Washington Post is better than the New York Times and in Europe rarely run stories that run counter to kind of left narrative the Washington Post actually does. Sometimes and I think it's better outlet again that's a quick dirty rule of thumb, bread, It's never gonna run anything it's counter to their interests in full. Wars doesn't run stuff, that's counter to their interests and that's why those sites are less trustworthy and same thing holds for unless I don't trust, Huffington posters, everything they run is is in the interim
their narrative, I wanna things we try your daily wearing. This is not a does, not pay, ourselves on the back, although it is is it is that we try to have a variety of perspectives which naughty whose of our editors are largely, and I disagree on virtually everything with retarded Donald Trump would try to make room for that, because you want to go invoiced voices to be present. In any case, the mainstream you haven't done this into. They blew other credibility, and here is a perfect example of how they blew all of their credibility. Here's Brine Williams, who faked his own My story multiple times right using a helicopter in Iraq, is almost shot down here as well. Bodies float by him during Hurricane Katrina. He was pressed, Is it the storming of of the beaches in Normandy? He was actually on the original mission to mission to the moon, and now he stolen MSNBC read they brought him back on MSNBC, after whose ousted from NBC nightly NEWS, and here he is, decrying taken is as well
Talked about here. Last night, fake news played a role in this election and continues to find a wide audience feed new study of Donald Trump own tweets, where they follow back news stories to their rude source, found more of them came from bright barred originally than from any other single source and, of course, he's really part is vague news now, as a former employees of bright baron, I can say that not everything the bright Barbara this is taken, is the vast majority of a bright part? Does aggregating actually just rewrite other people stories a lot better and brain limbs complaining about fake news is rather ironic and what he doesn't note. There is look at some of the other sources that the Trump was tweeting the campaign right. Some big sources, the Washington Post, Right Fox NEWS Dec on the hill. Europe Post Daily mail, I haven T the Huffington pose a few times The idea that a national or of you, which really didn't like him very much the idea that all of the people who are
reading, we're we're only tweeting from bright bird. Obviously, that's the biggest circle there and yes, I think right bar was a trump, probably outlet, but that doesn't mean every headline came from bright. Bark is fake news, nor does it mean, Entire outlet can simply be thrown out with the bathwater. To evaluate each story and their certain reporters, upright part, were really quite good. I think the Charlie spearing is good reporter overboard. Anything incline over preparatory slim, is a very good report. Writing map well, is not a very good report, but I think they're, plenty of good reporters bright Bart even though to now that I think is overall, just a shilling shilling for Trump, but again the blue all of its credibility here and so when they call when they call fellow here they scream about about fake news. It just us resonating, Hillary Clinton is doing the same routine. Instead of just recognising you guys lost the election cause, you ran a bad candidate and she ran an abysmal campaign and he didn't understand what a lot of Americans will come. Learning about instead you're too busy cutting videos with with
marriage obliged in which he singing view questions. Instead of just recognising that they're trying to blame some out side source cheating, whether the Russians, cheating or whether it is whether fake news, yours, Hillary Clinton, decrying fake news. The epidemic of malicious, fake news and false propaganda that flooded social media over the past year, our clear that so called? news can have real world consequences, this isn't about politics or partisanship live are at risk wise of ordinary people just trying to go about their days to do their jobs control to their communities is a danger we addressed and address quickly by partisan legislation is making its way through Congress to boost the government's response to foreign propaganda and Silicon Valley is starting to grapple.
The challenge and threat of fake news, who's, gonna determined, what's fake news, and what's not fake news, that's really the biggest questioner. Some stuff I do want to avoid the tendency to say nothing is fake news because they media over label things taken, as there are things that are fake news. There are things that are figures here. She sang pizza gate is vague news and that's what drove this guy over to this pizza to the and should the problem the problem is that if you are going to if you are going to label everything fake news from pizza Gate two's to Benghazi. Writer and remember how the media downplayed mendacity said there is nothing to see their. There certainly was something to see there in the fact that they they conflated all that destroyed their own credibility and so one Hillary Clinton standing there decrying fake news like wait, a second, why? You don't get to do this, my the version ski whose another one of these, these kind of dicey Europe, where's autonomous NBC should I'm morning Joe she's she's Hilary can complain about fake news. Hilary complains about fake news and then make of this morning. She says you know, Heller,
trying to get me thrown off air for simply saying that this was a competitive race was concerned. The campaign was not understanding that perhaps there was an arrogance that needs to get up there. I worsen understand that this is an over I'll just say it NBC got a call from the campaign like I had had done, something that was journalist, sickly, inappropriate or something and needed to be pulled off the air I mean think about that. That's just well you're, Olano MESSENGER. Ok, the inner than the fact that Clinton is saying fake news. This vagueness that and then she tried to have a reporter pulled off the era. Supposedly because the rapporteur was saying that this was a more competitive racing just demonstrates how silly all of this is hill. Again. Hillary Clinton has no credibility to cod fake news, because Hillary Clinton, The propagate a fake news mean you remember that Hillary Clinton ones claims that her husband out of the all of these circumstances surrounding her husband in the linsky. All that was lies. It was all just vast rightwing propaganda, the great story
here for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it. Is this vast right wing conspiracy that has and conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president ok and insist. You been singing the same tune for thirty years scratch always in the same tone when they lose. It must be that somebody lied about us a champion. It somebody told the truth about us. The truth is virtually all of anti Hilary stories were true, virtually The answer from stories were true. Virtually none of the programme or pro Hilary stories were true that was sort of the theme of the campaign as we are pointing it out. Plus again, Hillary Clinton, I say she's the purveyor of lies here are just a few of your whoppers envisage. This was a fine these. These lies on on Youtube there. Going to people showing videos of dire trap, insulting Muslims and recruit more radical jihadist. If that checkers have said that she was wrong, there is no video that ices as you know, and as you look there's a pattern of proclaiming that videos exists,
that do not exist. I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down and you get into the vehicles to get to our base for arrival in Bosnia was not quite as dramatic as Clinton put it. Memory should always match the video tank and family members of the Benghazi victims are saying you lied to them in the hearing we ve seen rage and violence directed at american embassies over an awful intern video that we had nothing to do with a loop They lie. She tell me something entirely different ethic, cowskin ceremony. She said it was the cause of the way, the video and that's you get back to me in any case is just an example. Some Hillary Clinton is telling, in their shoes, decrying fake news in talking about how terrible it is very difficult to take the Democrats. Seriously and the media seriously when they ve blown their own.
Credibility, which means that Trump basically has free rein. He basically has one of the place he has run of the place and that's either a good thing that's a bad thing and we'll talk that you have over two daily wired Subscribes, wouldn't talk about what that's bidding or a bad thing, and in what next year, daily wires outcomes prescribe eight dollars a month, and if you want annual description that that will run you still a thousand but you get a, but you get you get a copy, of Maya of my new novel, true allegiance, autograph middle sign, a bunch in the other room die, and you can be part of the report Our pod Castillo, the mail bag is coming up to take it to be part of the male babble. Delights live mail bag today, which means will take your questions live on air, which is pretty exciting way, Plenty of good he's coming Shapiro Store is coming latin there would then be rolling out lots of product in the new year end, you get significant discounts on all of that by becoming subscriber over a daily wire dot com. We are the large
conservative podcast in the United States or I'll get the Good NEWS about the media having discredited themselves with the media were lying in the first place, that's good. They ve been discredited the gunners revenue. A crass discrediting themselves that the Democrats lie consistently. So that's a good thing. Bad news is that they are not allowed to checks left on abuse of power or overstepping of concern. The boundaries by a Republican and that that actually a problem in the same way that we complain about there being sort of a monopolistic feeling the Obama administration, that nobody was tracking him, the mediaeval checking and Democrats one check num Republicans when checking it getting the same feel about Donald Trump rain. Paul Ryan Speaker of the house. He goes any visitors, Donald Trump and obviously look it's it's it's still really early. I understand everybody is gonna, be speaking in rose, hued tones and gilded tones about the wonders of of presidents of our trump, and here is
Paul Ryan, who hasn't Bree significant policy differences with Donald Trump coming down from atop Trump Tower to speak to the people, about about what happens during this meeting. Really enjoyed coming up here. Meeting with president lacks, we had a great meeting talk about our transition or very upset about getting to work and hitting the ground running in twenty seventeen. It put this country back on track for their very exciting stuff rivalries. Anything Paul Ryan is gonna check trump. If he goes off the rails, giving you well, I don't. I don't think that the so called conservative media will either. I think they're very few people in conservative media were willing to call stuff when they see that it's wrong. I think the carrier deals are pretty good litmus test for that. Most of the major players in conservative media have praising it s just wondrous example of God King Trump doing wonderful work as opposed to. Guys, we didn't think, was good when Obama did it right. Here's an example: George Well, who who's there critical from during the general election in the primary here's George will
he had to say about the carrier deal which, as you know, I don't have to reiterate- I think, as is terrible deal. I think it has nothing to do with conservatism. I think it's antics,
several here's. What George we had to say about the carrier deal so far. Donald Trump style is personal, not to say visceral and ad hoc, and what that adds up to, as it is a kind of use of presidential power, absolutely unconstrained by law and statute and all those other niceties. The problem is, when you have, in the carrier case political power used to bring pressure upon privately held corporation and as a fiduciary duty to maximize shareholder value and drive them off with political pressure from making economic decisions about economic assets. You are, in effect, at the end of the day, getting the federal government involved and capital allocation there's a name for that. It's called socialism and so to the existing indictments of Donald Trump in the public imagination, at least where the Democrats are concerned. We have fascist right, we have uber capitalist, and now we add to that socialist They cannot logically coexist,
This is not a logical time What he saying there is essentially true is that, by the way, ash than Social certainly can coexist. Most of the fascist countries in world history have been socialist, but here's the Rio right. So here's bill O last night on Fox NEWS and he's going after way he goes after will. It's really fascinating, cares employing conservative George well why conservative George will wash impose com? as to also provides analysis for Fox NEWS will Despises Trump feels that he is an intellectual in Syria even last willed it, the Republican Party, because a transformation now, certainly George Wills right as both in American and a analysed to grid lies not only Donald Trump but any powerful. Personally, once we have no time for that, What is troubling, however, is that much of wills, negative analysis is driven by person all animals, and it is here that he does his readers and viewers a great disservice
really that's what this anymore and play, I remember when Billow Riley earlier in this election cycles, having Donald Trump on, and there are two You know how to use to share milkshakes, remember that is really funny and it but now it's that will wills analysis has to be thrown out because you think he has animal. I hate this game by the way. I think this game is stupid. How about you? what he said. Not you feeling about his motivation for having set it. I think this is one of the a more things in politics we do or say. Well you know that maybe saying something true, but it's really the motivation, the bugs me I'm sorry, what are you my wife like if I say what really ever, everybody using relationship has this experience at one time or another, where you're talking to your spouse, you're talking you're, significant other, and you say so It's true, you're, significant others, as I can't believe you said, that's me say right, but if it's true what I just said, Cynthia the way you said it is, the way you said it? Ok, I guess, didn't a personal relationship. We can use the excuse that the way you set a matter since you're supposed to love each other, presumably, but your feelings about politician. Don't matter when it comes to
whether what you're saying is true or not, and you notice it just he's basically saying he's not sufficiently well, is not sufficiently boil to two Donald Trump It would really actually says right areas as well as undermining from their people are dedicated to undermining trump habit. This was it or was it not sure what he said, but Republicans longer operating in the realm of truth run truth. There simply. Riding in the realm of, we can undermine our man now. Here's the problem you couldn't made that argument during the election. A lot of people did. I didn't think it was pretty a good argument, because my argument was its my job to to boost tromp. It is job to do things that make me want to boost him right. Amateurs, jobs you to. Please me on my job to please him. Oh my allegiance to him. He has his allegiance to the american people and presumably two principles that I like. If you want me to vote for them at least that was an argument against the argument was out. There was a good one, but the argument was d: undermine what trump he's doing during the election cycle, because you'll help Hilary just by necessity, again not my job to help Trump.
My job to boost Hilary, my job to tell the truth, but please that's an argument now, healers is any more regular he's gone. Hilary is is off lining about fake news somewhere and well. I'll dodging sniper fire in Bosnia and you're still seeing the same people say the same thing right. You're still seen, George will say how d J yourself, single, rightly how dear George, will undermine Trump undermine Trump he's the presidency, what Georgia can't do anything about that George well knows you can't do anything about that. Has he undermining him? Is he making less electable. The election just happened is making or impeach. Will there's no there's not talk about impeachment, nor should there be it just. It's really devastating to watch- is people fall into line because it turns into a test of loyalty. Man, rather than test of loyalty to the principal and allow Republicans are falling into the streets of political is reporting tonight that a lot of trouble things are actually quite unhappy with
trumps carrier deal and his infrastructure plant, a Lotta house Republicans, but here's what they report quote. The irony express only by law makers and leadership. Aids is glaring, privately House Republicans complain that trumps infrastructure plan reeks of Obama Stimulus package. The some argue that from unlike Obama, is likely to rely on public private. Partnerships, not just that dollars and is likely to be paid? For They say his tariff proposal is ridiculous and using I'd have to force companies to stay in the. U S is inappropriate. Many are afraid to publicly opposed trump. Because of his fondness for retribution and use of twitter to publicly Seamus critics. So now there crossing their fingers at his rhetoric doesnt translate into actual policy proposals next year Marks Stanford Republic, South Carolina. Sometimes it's the pioneers then end up with the arrows in their backs, in other words. Well, why are you here near than data mean like did this idea that it's it's a political risk to take on Trump? Yes, you weren't elected you not take on drop? Your intellect Did you weren't, elected just cow and then cross your fingers? Eight coequal branch Congress Code,
we'll branch of the presidency? No! No! What did you do cross your fingers and help daylight? Did you Zimbabwe to represent their interests and to stand up anything Something is wrong by very people are given to this in trumpets is creating a feeling. Publicans like he's going to face stamp you if he, if, if you awesome, and then that is something that happened by the way is not unique to now. That's something that certainly happen during the primary and during the general is feeling that, if you, if you cross then you'll be run over by the Trump train, and that's not ending now and now he's got the White House behind him, so he's made politics quite personal and that scary for a lot of people, and the kind of language is using should not be. We should not be friendly, is very funny Trump said this more. I guess who's. Two days ago, you said quote: I want a list of one is that are leaving. I can call them myself. They won't be leaving if Barack Obama that you be saying well at some fascist language right there, s Zodiac. She says it. He rides I wanna get to companies that have announced their leaving. I can call them myself five minutes to peace. They won't believing ok,
That's really what I say said this during speech. They said they d would call them himself in five minutes they when believing what do you think he doesn't have five minutes giving gets annoying Let me present you my wonderful economic proposals that will drive you to make an independent decision not to relocate your employment or anything some devices we have that contracts you your names. We also have the power, the IRA's. We also have the power of the ethnic Effie CD. As you see we can come, weaken the Assisi wouldn't come on, we can come, we can do whatever you want it again. That kind of stuff the Republicans used to stand up, but they dont anymore zoos s kind of funny. This morning I was doing the other radio show that I do, which is this group shown the mornings here in LOS Angeles, which is a lefty and me and In it we should Kraus who agrees with my positions on a lot of stuff. We returned be in line and engender horn. I wondered gal but she's very in very, very programme? There's nobody and very, very programme and until we're talking about this. Only to the pole, the room, how many people here voted for Trump
we're doing alive broadcasts on our entire room chairs. Ok, every voted for Trump, but just fine. How many of you are a cool carrier deal. How many think it's good that he's calling up companies personally and everybody the room collapse- and I said, ok now how many of you would have been? Ok with Obama calling up companies personally, nobody collapse Mr Watts seems like a lack of principle. That did it just seems like yours your principles to meet a guy like Europe with fascism so long as the fascist is on your side and engine sensor calling all these people lacking in and suppose yeah, I'm in that's kind, what's happening here her. But it's true that there is no other way to see that again. If I read that quality again and its Obama right, if I really that quote and now it's not from saying it now. No bomber, saying it and it's a Valerie only get a list of companies that have announced that are leaving. I'm go myself. Five into place. There will be leaving ok, Right suddenly, you're feeling a little more angry. Aren't you well again that that means that we ought to be looking more closely what he's doing now, I will
there are some things that are. There are quite thrilling about Trump, then one of them is not what Harry Reed said: Harry Red, whose legitimately want the worst people on earth came out yesterday said he's been pleasantly surprised by trot which, by the way is an indicator. You probably shouldn't be pleasantly surprised by drop if you'll Ruth, very red, that's the problem will I have to say this he's not as bad as I thought he would pay some views. The selections I'm not wild about, because and be able to vote on them. I've been very, if we not criticising them individually, where his he impressed you, then where has he been? Not so bad? How about dreamers and where he was going to deport all the dreamers at eight hundred thousand young men, women who came here when they were little kids, presentation and reject the border with from Trump the first one. Firstly, she was gonna do is repeal that exact order we ve had a time magazine the last day or two. He said now, I'm not going to hurt us people deserved stay here. It's not it's true
read, has a lot of reasons. We please trumps sounding law like I like a moderate Democrat in some policies, is pursuing today. For example, he nominated as head of his national Economic Advisory Council. The head of Goldman Sachs, your member you remember when that was bad. Remember now is that number one. In was saying this about Heidi crows during the campaign
spilling? The beans is quite simple: when it comes society crew, she is a Bush operative. She worked for the architect of NAFTA, which is killed millions of jobs in this country. She was a member of the council on foreign relations who incinerators cruises own words called a nest of snakes that seeks to undermine national sovereignty and she's. A member she's been working for Goldman Sachs, the same global bank that TED crews left off his financial disclosure and who also has chairman of the board of the Federal Reserve, which is something that senator crews promise to up to audit the FED and didn't show up for the vote so spilling the beans on Heidi crew simply means that her entire career has been spent working against everything. Tat crew says that he stands for demons school majority. Here's what Trump heritage we don't go logistics earlier this year, just remind you. Here's and transport is crews, honest he's in bed with Wall Street and is funded by Goldman Sachs Low interest loans, no legal disclosure never sold off assets and he also tweeted
He also treated more about Goldman Sachs Sweden many times, but Goldman Sachs, how corrupt they are now he's got three separate Gorman staff sack staffers and his administration, all of which suggest that a lot of the drain, the swamp talk was was not now. There was one thing. I think that from said that he deserves praise, for this is one thing that I actually do like about Trump, and that is that Trump does he's not ashamed of his wife and that something that I do like, I think to too ostentatious about it. I don't think that's particularly classy, but not ashamed of it. When he's asked about his while these, of course and wealthy I like that, is there a lot of people here, getting all up tight for no reason about the fact that there are a lot of rich people in his cabinet welcomed the world power. Six, where their lot of rich people here is what Trump had to say: bout having a lot of people in his cabinet or very wealthy, some of the people, put on to negotiate you been noticing are some of the most successful people in the world. I wondered four criticised me: why can't they have people of modest means, because I want you, the better fortune, because now, their negotiating with you, ok
it's no different than a great baseball player or a great golfer mean we want the p well that it get a so proud to do it. These people have given up fortunes of income in order to make a dollar a year and is so proud that and you watch you watch what's gonna happen is happen. Vaster and when he says that he's not ashamed of having rich people surrounding him, I'm I'm not ashamed that either. I just think that he should be a little ashamed of the fact that he told all these people Goldman Sachs was the devil and then have woman sacks operational on staff is working for him. Now, that's a little bit. Where This actually leads to a point that needs to be made about the democratic. What now I don't want to give Democrats advice here, but this is necessary for analysis, and that is there's a split, the Democratic Party about what they should do now and, on the one hand you have Joe Biden in their hand. You have Nancy Pelosi, so Joe I'd and says we gotta go back after this white working class. Blue collar crowd the people who we lost into doubt.
Twelve, the people we started did to lose in two thousand eight. If we had all of the white work, class voters from Clinton and we had Obama's. Listen, we have sixty percent of the vote. Here's a Joe Biden had to say about boy working ass, one we Democrats sent by for every vote buying you can rather and get some white guy to vote I'll, get to educated women, devote democratic freedoms? there are, others is sort of sense has grown up Democrat Party, that somehow, spoke. Are me good people racist these sexist here's the thing ever found Jake any difference between the progress, the views I have, and I challenge anybody does have a more progressive record than I have on race. Women algae, t whatever an union halls I go do these events in youngster. I stand up there. You may cover some might say: we need equal for women and they all
because guess what their wives work their wives were, and they know their standard of living is diminished. I'd stand up and say: look we have to. We have to stop the violence on college campuses, and we have to make men stand up and take responsibility. Is God they cheered, but there's a sense in some of our partners. Wait a minute we either have to be toned down or for The point of view in ramp up we're going to do for can folks are somehow talk about work and folks ramp, there is no conflict neighbours. What you're doing here is smart right. What he's trying to say is I need to reach out to these white working class folks. My progressive agenda doesn't have to be compromised to do that. This is actually quite smart, which is unique from Joe Biden and then there's Nancy, plus he's taken Anti blows he's take is that she's going to continued run against Donald Trump basis of sort of what she thinks
is her agenda now. What's funny about here is the chief. She actually saying something triple about trumps tariff proposal, but it's not safe. Politics. Here's what she says. We live in global economy. Any Yes, it is that we take account of trade, have a consequence for us and the idea that we were going to go to tat, it does and seem well thought out. It doesn't look like a formula for success. And it certainly will invite reciprocity we want to do, is to promote our exploits matter. Have them tariff highly in other countries too. I think this is more of a queer thing, because it doesn't really sound like a serious proposal in terms of trade, but because it has an appalling you know what you say in your actually is is economically true. It is amazing that a socialist, sometimes tumbles on it, even if just now,
Opposition to try and obviously Bernie Sanders were proposing. The same thing should be offered by: what's it, But what amazing here is that the Democrats do have an opportunity here. Is that opportunity? Opportunity is Donald. Trump is basically Herbert Hoover Herbert Hoover was not a hard core republican. He was seen as somebody who is very conservative and after he left the presidency's president from nineteen twenty two nineteen, thirty two after he left the president. He wrote the series of pamphlets and books about what it meant to be a conservative. None of those hands it's in books actually sums up what he did when he was president when whose president erase tariffs when you present hooray, taxes when he's presidency blew out spending a heap, he did all of the things that that after yard did he just did them at bout half add. Maybe a quarter ab then after came along and after our campaign against the waste and fraud of over, and he also said that he was to add to the social due to sort of these socialist in things. The socialist moves that Hoover had made. So he
long. He doubles down on everything that Hoover does. He increases everything he gets more involved in the economy. He blows out the spending we have thus far vaster extent he as city administrative state. He creates the new deal, he bullies companies, but all of that was done by Hoover, and so it s, our did it comes along and says: yeah Hoover failed, but the reason will prevail it is because we need to do three times as much as the Hoover was doing. With that crazy conservative. Not doing that much Democrats could you that would try because trumpets actually embracing policies now that are not good policies, but that give a moral regions to Democrats by the policies that don't work, sort of best of both worlds. For it Look, that's the policies are not geared to working on abroad, level. I'm sorry! I can't call up a jewel
businesses in the United States and convince them to say by either bribing them are leveraging them that destroys the economy. It does destroys it because number one you can bribe everybody and number two. If you leverage everybody there simply gonna move off shore at a certain point and then, if you don't want them to move off shore, you have to tariff all the goods coming into the country raising prices by the amount the EU tariff them. But that's what trump he's gonna pursue. What Democrats could do is they could say, look at Donald Trump. He doesn't know the hell he's doing, but you sort of equities talk What about you? You like the idea these and protect american business. You like the idea that he's gonna leverage them that is strong arm them. There's gonna be I've been wheedle them. You can like that stuff? Don't you will do that ten times as much in the region has failed, is because in here hasn't on more of that you could very easily with a Herbert Hoover scenario. You can end up with a Herbert Hoover scenario: nineteen, twenty thousand nineteen thirty two followed by four consecutive democratic terms and that is not out there on the possibilities of dough. If Democrats were smart, but Democrats are actually quite stupid, so we remember by the way the Republicans held this end
majority in nineteen twenty nine they held the House majority in nice, twenty nine and by one thirty, two, the entire country, in the hands of Sdr, and that was a direct response to the fact that Herbert Hoover govern, like F the airline, govern, like after light in nineteen thirty, by the way that that Congress was all republican, send a majority Republican House majority Republican by nineteen ready to everything, had swelled, and and now Sdr was in control suddenly after was in control. Suddenly the Republicans maintained a slight majority decided they lost the house. You could certainly something like that happening simply at the democratic double down on the logical reasons. Hind Trump ISM but then said we're going to blow it out and that's the reason. The trumpets failed. That's dead that that's what happened. And pursues bad policy, so invest a possible worlds from proceeds, really good policy. Investment possible resolve this sort of just to generate headlines and then underneath it he's pursuing good policy that makes everybody prosperous, say he's got both right. He's got kind of the nasty police,
maneuvering that he's doing right now for good headlines from the left. But he, Simon Firstly, making me economy better and he's lowering the tax revenues, lowering the regulations and he's not setting up tariffs is actually making trade easier than would be the best of our house The world's be doesn't do that and he's opening himself up for a whopping, whopping democratic lash and behind this ok time that some stuff I like things, I hate that will lead stuff I like things I hate them, will lead to the mailbox up stuff. I like I've been watching the Netflix Series Narcos, it is wrong, we really good so obviously not for the gaieties about drugs and sacks, but but it is a traces, the rise and fall Pablo Escobar. Who was one and was worries criminals of the latter half of the twentieth century, either the colombian drug dealer, who was responsible for literally thousands of deaths? is here is Pablo Escobar and here is a bit of a trailer for knockers,

It's it's pretty historically accurate most through season one and its in its very solid at a very, very solid series enjoying enjoying that. Ok, other things that I like there's this have to mention this: it's it's again, not for kiddies, but it is hysterical and wonderful, and that is
is this. There's this guy named room Jerry. I know who he is. He wrote something for dead spin. It's called it's an adequate man, not dead, spend icon, the twenty six.

Ok,
time for some things that I hate. So let's say that you want to take your kid too a story, our you're gonna go to a book store and there can reach a bookstore children. Maybe they you're, getting fairytales or perhaps they're going to read them in store from the Bible or If you live in New York at the Brooklyn Public Library, they can introduce you to drag queen stories for your small child for mercy. Meltzer New Yorker only than you are We find this charming in and lovely, especially since I was in population living in the past. Nation. Within your current on average five point: three children they live honestly the subscribers of the new Yorker, they may have one point. Five children at most, but more likely point three too much older Ladys, like my grandma, whose subscribed to the new Yorker and think that its absolutely charming to reach a small children about dragline mercy, melter rights on a recent Saturday morning about two dozen small children and their parents gathered in the park. Slow branch of the
and public library for new reading series. Nothing. I like better than publicly sponsored ridiculous ass. These there were pregnant I'm with tattoos, breastfeeding moms and a little girl, when a pink ballerina gear climbing up the lapse of her two dad's, ah if the kids, who ranging age from new born to five years old or tiny, tee shirts showcasing their parents, favorite brands, Nirvana David Belly or political One read the future is female by the way, if you get your kid, a shirt and kids like three, as the future is female. Your terrible person like just just putting it out there, and have political views on this issue of your children. It just its obnoxious. Want to advertise, don't use your kids a billboard doing, is you regret is a billboard for your poet of views is ridiculous. The event was home did by me- and I am speaking as somebody who has two kids under three the event was Tibet Michel Tee, a writer from LOS Angeles restart attending library story hours after becoming a mom story time rises or falls on the charisma storyteller. She said tease solution. I love this She brought her partner, dashing Lippman, and there too,
builds on Atticus who had a haircut their resembled David Beckham he's pretty butch. Tell him frantic ass. He said I'm always pushing a to G on him, but he's like no, Why are you pushing a to do on your mail child? Are you itching virgin confusion and upset? Is that something that you want? It's wanting any honestly like There is controversy over whether if your kid wants weren't, you too in his boy, should do that or not. I wouldn't do that for my son. These, I think it's important to reinforce generals, but the idea that you're deliberately going out of your way to slap a tool. One or two you're all because you want him to be confused is just disgusting. I'm putting your own political priorities ahead of the mental well being in in psychological well being of your child I'm still awaiting the studied. The demonstrates. The gender confusion is a great thing for children to have, but that's actually helpful t solution called drag Queen story, our introduces elements of gender bending in camp I've long thought drag, queens need to be the performer the children's parties rather than magicians or clowns dry
has become more mainstream. Kids might have seen one on a billboard or on tv, equally, unless your terrible parent, they pointed out to your three year old, I mean obviously the you're gonna you're, going out in encouraging you're confusion and show you all derives from this idea. Is it there's this conflicting idea, among so many people on the left, and it really is self contradictory? sexuality is completely Malcolm well that sexual orientation is completely vexed there It's bizarre world you're desires, are completely fixed by biology. The evidence is not, therefore that kid tend to be binary in terms of sexual orientation. Women's more fluid, but there is gradation when the then the behaviour is entirely malleable. Here, Did it stop men can just have sex with with other men and no big deal and ended in you. You know after that, gender is not defined as tax. Second, gender have no relationship to one another, the day that they can be completely separated and that all
Did you just being out of our young sons the idea that men are men and women are women and suddenly will have a better world, because everybody will be generous, androgynous widgets, its stupidity and it hurts children again: find me the three year old who is gender confused and is better off for being gender confused, find it for one. One show me the one is show me: the person whose had a blue is better off for being gender confused I'm not saying that people choose to be general confused. I'm saying that if you are cursed with under confusion. That's a difficult crossed, a bit I mean it's not that it's your life harder doesn't make your life easier deliberately going on your way to take a healthy child and introduced, you're confusion to a healthy child for no apparent reason other than your perverse view of the EU first, that is unblock by scientific evidence. It putting politics above the lover gettin, it's really and truly disgusting. Ok, other things that I dislike aside from drag queen shows for three Earl to the public library. Goodness gracious Trevor Noah
I could do this literally everyday Trevor know about that. I think is terrible, his Trevor Noah as we establish now there there's been a long race between Lena Dunham Trevor Noah, Amy humorous Man, be it's like that. The final form of comedy cancer and eventually everyone dies, but Trevor Noah, he did a bit on the Electoral College, India, Thomas Jefferson Shop, to explain it I about you, but whenever I mean a constitutional crisis, open up my favorite up. It's called founding father, how long ago, oh, stop it Thomas Jefferson? This is true of an Thomas Jefferson, this Trojan hour. I have a question guy, I know what you're going to say. Yes, chances are you or descended from me
they ve gone? Now? Mrs Jefferson is not about that. It's about the electoral college. Why does America need electors to pick a president? Why not just trust the popular vote draws the popular vote? Wanna go joke, see why there showed us so well with millennials zero driver in March, we didn't earlier by popular vote for president. We believe the common people were ill informed and couldn't be relied on to reject a populist demagogues, so we devise electors to ensure that America would never elected dangerous charismatic lunatic. Well, actually I don't know if that worked out. You see because the electoral college because handing the White House because of them to a racist white guy. Instead of a more popular, more qualified woman Thoud like it's working,
perfectly, what's the rub? A well I get in your neighbor look, the thing is it distorts the votes of voters, don't get the power they should and the candidates totally ignore everyone outside a few shrink states. It's not to choose what you want. I can't let you it's so terrible, like even his audience at this point. Committing suicide in their seats. At this point, there searching the lay there, the researching the coke, the coke machine from of lie that they can down there. They they ve started, ransacking that the kitchen at the daily show headquarters. Insertion of bottles of drano so bad it so bad there. Their variety reason why the electoral college exists. Yes, one of the reasons the electoral college exists was to provide a Czech against the against demagoguery One of the reasons that you have arising demagoguery is the is the increasing popular vote that that has taken place. In the country, and I don't mean the number of people who are voting. I also mean the fact that we change the system is to be. The Senate was selected by Senate legislators as by the individual state legislators, as opposed to being directly elected
in that has led to the rise of democratic demagogues and the Senate that make people more accustomed political demagoguery, the rise of television, but so the only recently electoral college mean it was also a compromise, because there are a lot of smaller states. That said, we don't want to get into a system where our interests, run roughshod over by president, whose elected by all of the populations in more populous states, so city to that a seller, but taking this series slaves, even the silliest thing, because an honest, just as a committed thing. At some point, you should try be funny, might might be worthwhile, ok time for everyone, from the mail bag Harold Chris for rights. Better jobs are getting replaced with high tech robots evermore. Increasingly, what are your thoughts? eventually needing to have a universal income because there simply are no jobs. This is a great question and it is something that I was thinking about a lot today, because the fact is that Take? Robots are going to take over an enormous number of industries and the question can become what happens to people who can't actually that's what happens to people who are incapable
of having income in order by all of these things. Well, what does things that happened when you have robotics, they take over is that you can produce a lot of products very very cheaply, so the prices go down. You don't have to have a really great joy, in order to support at the last out D. Actually, today's economy is a good example of this. If you earning thirteen fifteen, our fifteen bucks an hour. You still have the time my aunt Adeline Technology right, you saw her tv at home. He saw a car in all likelihood, you stole the microwave, so the toaster, that's tough, going a better and more plentiful. So the idea that you need a universal basic income because unemployment is gonna be universal, is wrong. I think there can be a lot of jobs created in the areas that we haven't thought of, simply because there is still an element of human labour, that's necessary, even in high tech. Now is it going to be increasing problem. Yes, it can mean increasing their there's, gonna be a gap between peace both are in the more creative areas of life, and are in the more mechanistic areas of life there will be new job created in different areas: the idea of unit
so basic income by the way was supported by people like Milton Friedman who foresaw the possibility that there be vast wads of the of the country that we're on able to support themselves, I'm split on it like the idea of a universal basic income on principle, because I think the idea of a universal basic income eventually leads to people single I want more universal basic income, Emma more universal basic income yeah. Basically, a group of people who are living if the public dull and that number is increasing over time is technology gets better and then there's something for more and then eventually you end up with and then you eventually end up with a frozen economy, because all of the resources are redistributed, we have to understand about economics. Is that when you redistribute resources, your basically freezing the economy and place you're yours, the good goods it's going to get any utopian world in which machine generating everything and utopian world in which machines held all the jobs. You wouldn't the form of universal basic income, because the fact is that there have been no more technology to be developed. Everybody would have all the things they need and then question, is ok,
make sure everybody has an equal share or none equal share, at least a portion of this prosperity. But there's always progress to be had- or at least there has been historically when they reached the one of utopia, where everything can be developed very quickly very cheaply for everyone in there is no question of scarcity. If they the scarcity is what creates the supply and demand curve. If there is no question scarcity. Then, So basic income might be something it's worth looking at, but as long as they're scarcity in the marketplace, universal basic income undercuts the the actual interest in generating new technologies and that under cuts the possibility of future development Samuel right? I want to ask about them the morality of deception, if you have a moral goal but more probable way. To accomplish that goal is to deceive others. Is that ethical, the basic end justifies the means, question and there lots of people are different. Answers on this Emmanuel caught had been problem with ends justify the means. He said that easy, the golden rule basically should apply the what he called the categorical imperative if it
you allow everybody to lie for the good of of their better or better morality, then everybody she's gonna lie all the time, and that is a, and that is a problem, but here's what I would say. I would say that there is radiation and morality, and they did it people always ask it like you, have a Jew in your basement, its nineteen forty three, the Nazis, front when they're asking. If you leave you in the basement, can you lie and caught had? problems lying in this situation. I dont have a lot of problems in the situation, because lying Is the second worst alternative? It's the its second worst alternative in the worst alternatives, the worst alternative and there's no past ability of a future recompense. So did this come up context of this election cycle? Actually where people say the moral goal is the is the prevention of Hilary from becoming president and most probably, to account in the is. Do you tromp or not, in electing Trump, by lying for Trump, and in fact, there's morality, allergy lying for trunk as you dont want Hilary elected their lot to me only hold, if you think Hilary is the worst thing in the world, everything
Not the worst thing in the world. Do you think she's really bad, but not the worst thing ever. Have you think there's a future of the country then lying? becomes a problem. If you think so, worse thing, everything she Satan then lie becomes required because you have to stop Satan. So all I would say unless it is the worst of the worst of the worse situations lying in favour of the end goal, is not acceptable. Has to be the worst of the worst of the worse situations, and you have to be honest with yourself about whether it is that before he's our line and in Cinema and tv using countless reboots remakes equals principles in the last ten years. Any thing to do at length of intellectual property protection, keeps expanding by those push to extend it wouldn't having Are things in the public domain? Be a positive appreciate, any legal moral economic opinion. Phenomenon in recent cinema wanting the truth is the real reason they keep rebuilding is because, if you keep making money off the same movie, why would you stop making the same moving? a hundred million dollars of every spider man, reboot and his his origin story has now been told more than Jesus, then, is it
I think we all. We are now ok, we get an uncle, then gets shot were all there. We got an hour it. We don't need another, reboot explaining them Gobain got shot but as far as you you're jovial, more general question about having more things in the public domain. Of course, having one the things in the public domain is wonderful, so long as you're not ripping anybody else off and stealing other people's intellectual property is is problem so that the purpose of they represent one. Is I create a creative work? You don't get to steal a copy of your own name on it and pretend that it's yours, which is free. As well as copyright violation, but you also get to just reprint. My bookseller million copies of it then take all the profit because you marketed it better than I did now. Here's? A from bed? Then different story. My relatives have already made whatever profit looking to make off of it and It seems to me that there should be a pretty lengthy protection for for private the offer for four intellectual property, that's one of the areas where I think that that government,
They have a and protection of intellectual property is, if you don't than you, have that the high possibility of of fraud and and intellectual property theft Glenn Michaels Durban, a friend of mine, is one on political. Analysts owes me four hundred bucks for affordable and one hundred dollar, but we made on this election. I don't remember this bad Michael K, from LOS Angeles. I don't remember, is that I'd be happy, Michael Kay, to pay that if you can provide me evidence that happen, I know to people who received four thousand dollars apiece from one Benjamin Shapiro for for having that wrong. In this election, Michael Medvedev receives a four thousand dollar payment is made for charity and David. Both talk shows up in Seattle, received a four thousand dollar came into his chair. Account I don't remember. This bet happening Michael cake. If you can prove it, happened, I be more than happy to pay the money, After all, I would see it as a form of charity since your poor Emmanuel rights. What do you really the best way to counter the argument that the Republican Party became the races party back in the nineteen sixties. Tanner,
it's a tanner, I've, descrie or rather to manual. I'm sorry, Socio, Emmanuel, wrote a column about this yesterday and check it out a daily wire. The fact is that the movement toward the Republican Party in the south began in the nineteen. Fifty is not the nineteen sixties predated. The ninety sixties, that's because of cold war concerns and its also because economic concerns. What if, the industry had started to move down into the south. A lot of industrialization was happening in the south. The night The sixties did not, remarkably, that trend, if it had you do what you would have thought is that if it was just racism, what you two figure does all the Democrats were. Racists and winning elections would have just switch to the republican party. In how they ran right. George Wallace was a Democrat when he ran for President nineteen sixty eight all the others. We're gonna, grace estate, democratic racists and then both parties sort of moved away, from racism. The democratic party moves wave over racism into welfare, ISM, the Republican Party, did not embrace racism. The idea that the Republican Party just started to embrace racism is silly. There are a lot of people talk
there. The next in southern strategy, Nixon talking now crime Crime was serious problems, and I can certainly there is a mass of escalation in crime and nineteen sixty nineteen Seventys, the fact that people saw, There's a racial component to address not Nixon's father was racial component to at the rate of violent crime, that community skyrocketed all of that has very little to do with with racism and has to do with a lot of social conditions, which is why You ve seen changes all the country with regard to politics. That really very little to do with race per se again. The best proof of this is that if the democratic the Democrats in the South South had thought the entire south is gonna, go republican hours, which party and he says you said, Madison versus Marbre was decided incorrectly. Why is that? If the Supreme Court perform judicial review. What they do in reality, while the Supreme Court would have the power to look now. At the lines turnin weather is in line with the constitution. The Supreme Court would the power to interpret what the what law is under the constitution, meaning laws passed constitutionally and now they
to determine what Congress meant when it road particular provision, just like any other court, does right there courts generating basis of contract. They just be doing it with a piece of legislation. They wouldn't be, the ultimate repository of constitutionality and, again, look they look at the constitution of the United States. There is no text that suggests that the constitution of the United States was too applied to legislate unduly. We passed by the legislature by disapproval one of the United States has a power irrigated to itself marble versus Madison. Was wrongly decide, actually skews the constitutional or because now you have one group that is below into the constitution and to other branches that really aren't. They can do whatever they want, and then the Supreme Court is supposed to be the ultimate arbiter, which means the Supreme Court when it comes to the constitution, is more powerful than the other two branches. That is not how the founders foresaw. It's. Why? The founders bothered to put provision in place like the notion they have to swear an oath to the constitution of the United States. If you're in any of these other positions of power, the branches were supposed to check each other, but there is no check on the Supreme Court's power to overrule a piece of legislation on behalf
the constitution and read into a devalues. They see fit. Ok Nina says I enjoyed reading your article about leftist wanting to ban books like how thin I admit, however, I'm confused about this issue, but not many let's be ban. I am greatly concerned that some of the things my teenagers are required to read such looks and stories laced with graphic violence and sexual content, these things are her family values and try to safeguard, make as well. This is one of the reasons why I support local control of schools, and what I mean by that is that you and your friends, if you pay for the school you get to decide what's in it. The problem with doing this at a public school is now you're talking general taxpayer, sponsorship of banning works of art in that gets into some pretty problem. Maybe getting pretty ugly territory. You really don't want the government deciding what canning I'll be allowed in the school, because they can do that politics. They can get out the Bible. They can do that with a lot of Things are already doing it, and it's really good This is why I like the idea of local locally controlled schools you're going to help public schools a private school. This charter schools, things that give more control back to the parents you can.
Have control of your school. If you and your friends one I want to not have a book a particular school, I can think you're wrong, but it doesn't implicate me if the Virginia schoolboy decides gonna start banning books. That does implicate me I can say what is the difference between original ISM verses living document, interpretations of the constitution, but I'm in the main difference in a nutshell, is the original isn't believes that the constitution is like any the document you read it. It has worked towards mean something they mean what they meant at the time they didn't magically. Changing, shift right to give an exit. Well, the constitution of the United States, as the government has jobs, provide for the general welfare today, people take it. Thirdly, in actual welfare programmes, the constitution? To doubt me, welfare programmes, The living constitution would suggest. Oh well, ok well, today we mean Walter and we want the constitution five for the general welfare, so that means big big spending welfare programmes, this what the left actually does The living constitution just suggests that when your friends get to read your own values into a document. Somebody else wrote and verified, and it's not your job to do that. That is a betrayal of what the judicial system is for.
Leon rights: why does the constitution, after specifically refer to freedom of religion? Can't worship, for example, just be classified as general. Freedom, Well, the reason it was specifically singled out as because sometimes for we come into conflict in the view of a lot of people. So, for example, let's say that that you have a let's have a law. Why should they the Supreme Court Ruling Rights Did you have a rule that you don't like people? smoking pot and is a tribe that uses pot in order to get high for their religious rituals or less controversially? what did it? The Jews use, wine for Kurdish and it will Catholics cavities wine for communion. And prohibition goes into a factors. Constitutional amendment and prohibition goes in fact, should there still be a carve out or you to practice your freedom of religion. The answer is yes there B, because religion has to be reviewed. Region is? Is the bulwark of a civilised society? If you don't have a religious community, then there
at decently enough, the social fabric ones exist enough to preserve freedom than we're trying to single out freedom of religion, but I mean look there The question we are asking is a little bit too broad just to be fair because when you say shouldn't aberration to be classified as general freedom, if or true. You would need a bill of rights that was actually argument that many of the Anti Federalist made a lot of the Anti Federalist said: don't have a bill of rights because now you're specifying freedoms using your naming the freedoms and if you name the freedoms, then, what about you dont named those exist, and there was actually is- I think, a well founded critique of the bill of rights in ok. Will you say, as the right to freedom of Religion Baden mentioned, that there is a right to freedom of of sex, for example, So can the government now impinge on that, because you didn't mention it in a lot of the advocates of the constitution they.
Bill of rights. They said well, it's better that we should list some of them. If we missed some of them, then we have a catch. All paragraph right. This is this- is the tenth amendment that reserves all the right back to the state in the people respectively. Sweden mention them so announcing. This is an exclusive bill of rights or saying that this is some of the bill of rights is not the only rights but some of them, but a lot of the end. Federalist said, the problem is, if you list them, you're, suggesting that its exclusive and comprehensive and you're gonna miss some of them So your argument that there should that you don't have to less freedom of religion also applies to freedom, to bear arms, for example right. Why should he listened their arms. Isn't that classified as just general freedom. The answer is yes, and I There is a strong case we made. The bill of rights was actually a problem there that people regional right, but they don't actually read the constitution of the United States. The count Nutritional structure was supposed to protect you. The bill of I was just supposed to be a reminder as to what rights you hold, but now he flipped it before the bill of rights is easier to read and people are stupid. Instead, we focused on the bill of rights and we ve forgotten about the constitutional structure. So have essentially a presidential executive dictatorship where we don't really
