Phronsie you now, a pike has created by Johnson and Johnson and the American Nurses Association, highlighting innovative in human centred solutions, driven by nurses, addressing today's most challenging healthcare problems hosted by nurse economist and health tax, specialist Shanna Butler over the decades and centuries we ve been looking at our citys at their work and their research in their science, but we haven't, I've been seeing them see you now available wherever you get, my guests launched one thousand companies news headquarters to New York. It's just that
Elizabeth Revenue, here's the joy of those people, let's get straight into its first up, prison, troms, housing secretary, doesn't know anything about housing is environmental chief, doesn't think man made climate change is a thing and last night we learned that he Secretary of Education has a lot of learning to do. Betsy, divorcing education secretary admitting sixty minutes. She does not know how was performing in her home state of Michigan, terrible public schools and Michigan gotten better. I dont know overall, I can't say overall that they have all gotten better. The whole state is not
While there are certainly lots of packets, where this does that students are doing no, have you seen the really bad schools? Maybe try to figure out what what they're doing I have not. I have not had not intent Finally, visit in schools that are underperforming- maybe you should Maybe I should yeah. Maybe I should be, as you know, the fact that she never intentionally went to bed school. We should definitely walked into one by accident. That's what that means is workers like this is the biggest check, cashing place. I've ever seen wait a minute. I do feel bad for the next school. That's you. This now because they definitely no. Why she's their black way to win a crappy school? Is that why my textbook is just a bunch of Snapple Caps Betty divorce, accidentally working in their beds, who will be the best sequel to dangerous minds ever be her work
like how those students, I'm betsy- oh hell, no I'm out China School budget has been written of dangers minds. Let's move on because over the weekend, the president headed to Western Pennsylvania, to help Republicans try to win especial election for vacant congressional seat in the heart of steel country. Now this is a district, the Trump one, by twenty points. So normally it should be a cake work for the GEO, P and yet Republican Rick's, a cone is struggling to hold of Democrats Conor Lamb, partly because President Trump is show on pop. These days, so Trump held a ready to remind everyone that before he was a terrible president, he was a really entertaining candidates. President Trump
traveled to Moon, Township, Pennsylvania Saturday night outside of Pittsburgh to rally first State Representative Republican Rick's, a comb lamb, Lamb, the YAP Lamb YAP, decide to act like a republic itself. We get. He won't. Give me one look. I don't know what it's like a nice guy. I hear, is nice. Looking, I think, I'm better looking at him, I do I do and it's likely younger than me slightly now. I heard that the nice he's ok, he's all right personally
I, like Rick's ago, another geese answer, so one candidates is good looking and the other candidates is also good. Looking and that's pretty much as in depth as trunk got about the race. You know most presidential endorsements, don't take bang ability to accounts. I like this new approach. I like it. I would smash him. Also him smash them all. Now, in theory, Trot was meant to be their campaigning for the republican candidate, but in reality he was just there to enjoy himself, never see the snow we're on its ninety. Ninety nine I'm on meat, the press a show now headed by sleepy eyes, Chuck Tide,
sleeping you, son of a bitch I'll day. That's presidential yeah, none of this. Yes, we can bullshit sleep, my son of a bitch. What a leader only from can ridicule people for performing necessary human functions, this guy sleep spokes he sleeps. Sometimes what about this woman? body is literally covered and skin, and the crowd is a scam turbine off right now. Take that but when I present drum holes are ready, you can tell he's back in his element because he will riff about anything the pops into his head millennia. Great great first lady, we take He is right. You they girl, I've been so easy folks, that's always
who who thinks millennia hasn't the number one story in America. Right now is how her husband had an affair with a porn star and then forgot to sign his Oh non disclosure agreements who has an easy like poor millennia, still has to pretend she's happily married, which is really hard. I mean Sally Hawkins had an easier.
Of acting like you wanted a fish, that's the real Oscar right there. So tromp goes a pencil valium to say how much he supports Rick somebody barely speaks about the dude and then on top of that decides. Now is the perfect time to pump his own re election campaign. You know, make Amerika great again right, make Amerika great again right. So you know what the new slogan is gonna, be I I won't tell you, we ve gotta, keep it secret. What our new slogan, when we start running in, can you believe it years from now is going to be keep a man of great exclamation. Why keep a priceless either?
Half way through his slogan, he realizes rhythm was off, so we try to improvise right because in his head he was like make Amerika great again. So you one of the same rhythm is like our new slogan is: keep America exclamation boy, active leggy. It's just finish off, is messing up slogans like if someone was like nationwide on your side, exclamation and poor George Bush first from stole his dignity. Now he stealing his exclamation point. Where will it end now if from seemed like, he was an especially good mood? Maybe it's because a few days earlier, he had a big life event, she Donald Trump got a new best friend Donner. The president aggrieved me face to face with North Korea, leader, something no further than ever. The decision to meet came suddenly and dramatically. Once President Trump heard that Kim Jong on wanted to meet with him, he quickly agreed the president was
static poking his head into the White House Briefing room to announce that something big was about to happen. This is the cutest story ever about Trump at allowed that he was so excited Kim Jong. We wanted to meet him that he was running around the White House telling everyone is they did you guys here? I said yeah rugged. Man never had a lover like there is now a sitting. You as president meeting with the leader of North Korea, is like a system street episode about group sex. It's never happened, which is why, which is why, all you. Can you can look at that for a moment you can you can enjoy that they have needs you know it's natural, which is why, like that Sesame Street episode, nobody really knows. If it's a good idea,
all of us feel that Kim Jong Moon is a bully who needs to be handled by another bully. I am highly sceptical of the idea of meeting with the head of the gulags state in handing over legitimacy. Please prepare Jonathan S, the problem, it there's no one at the State Department to brief in theirs and we have no ambassador to South Korea. Will he be prepared? We don't know what burden. We have to admit that the previous White House and the one before that heads where the most well prepared brilliant foreign policy minds that we ve ever seen, and it was failure. That's a really good point: the experts have been trying to solve North Korea for twenty years and its own d gotten worse. So if the smart people can't do it, why not try Trump is like it's like if you had a rare disease that the world's top doctors couldn't cure, so you would like
you know what one don't let that dog Anna had give it a try? How did even get that have she's gonna be pretty smart. Now many foreign policy experts have concerns about sending such an unpredictable negotiator into nuclear arms discussion. But don't forget that unpredictability on the other side, to the north korean state media, which we have been monitoring very very closely since this announcement first came out a couple days ago about this potential meeting has mentioned. The North Koreans have been so airily quiet on the topic. President Trop has orthodox foreign policy, and I think he took the north Koreans by price? Just like everyone else, yeah you see North Korea made the offer, but didn't think the trunk was going to say. Yes some? Are they also don't know what to do? It's like if kept, calling actually worked, whose lay harry My moustaches lonely want to take it for a ride, a woman like sure that's right now. Ok, I mean I guess I could ask my boss, but
have all these nails to hammer out carried by now so look. I know it's easy to presume the worst, because Trump is basically a nuclear knowledge free zone, but what if he gets this right anyway? What if he goes to North Korea doesn't say anything racist, even bonds with Kim, because they go to the same super cuts and then they reach a historic drew agreement to get rid of North Korea's nukes. That would be amazed would celebrate until present from gets home, and we realized he forgot to sign the last page right back. I am Jo Firestone enable new have a coming soon through comedy central, I central podcast. It's called every day decisions. It's a show where I talked to guess about the West, twenty four hours of their life there still alive. They continue to live, but though s toy,
hours before they record it? That's what I'm talking about and animate little decisions that they make throughout their day, and I really think that diesel decisions, like you know whether you choose cute tips or cotton balls. I think these are the kinds of things that really make. The great people great, so that's why I'm talking to them we're gonna, have all kinds of guests like dentists and comedians, and musicians addendum children under five. It's gonna be very good, so subscribe now where every was in your pay. Cash is coming out soon as that out ass, coming out I guess to the daily show a Pulitzer Prize winning author, who has written his first children's book called Island born. Please welcome
You know the ass shop. Thank you so much. This is quite an adventure for you writing your foot children's book. A lot of people know your work at the Pulitzer for the brief wondrous life of Oscar Wilde, and you are an author who is prolific. You are known for writing amazing stories that connect not only to the immigrant experience but to the american experience because they won't come in here from somewhere. What made you go with a children's book, that's quite a departure for you, yeah hi, I've, gotta, godchildren, I've got to God, daughters, who, but twenty years go asked me to write them a book about them. Their dominican live up in the Bronx, and I said I would, and it took me, twenty here's to do right. It was so that they like they, like God, Parents themselves near one of em:
like a lawyer, their Magro there, and I gather that she threaten to you should like you haven't. If you notice year, you promised this and now you ve been served. I think she's just embarrasses man, it took you forever your lame, you you're what I it it has paid off, though you have written a story about a fascinating little girl and of for those you ve never read the book for those who want to get into what is island born about, in your words, so bottle a little girl who grows up at an immigrant community? She emigrated from the island before she could remember anything, and the book is about her teacher asking all these students to draw a picture of their first country. Could it describes of immigrant kid and she can't remember- and she decides to figure out what this place that she comes from, but you can remember was like right and it's
me that she has remember a place that she never was because in many ways will those a children's book I feel like it touches on seems that we can all relate to, especially if you live in a country that you're not originally from in the story. Got Lola going around trying to figure out what pieces she has of the island. I hope it was. Was this some of the experience of some of the experience inspired by by the life that you ve lived or the life of the people around you yeah, I mean Part of this has everything to do with how many people we know who carry other world with them. They live, want Three four worlds and in the United States is sort of your encouraged to get rid of. Those are the world's into imagine that you only exist in one. But it's not true, and so I kind of wanted to write about a little girl who surrounded by people who live in multiple world, trying to discover what it means to be able to join
to have other worlds to draw upon its interest, and you say people knew no conditioned or encouraged to forget the other world, your American. Now you know this is America. This is you don't talk about the Dominican Republic being this is this? Is the the country that matters to you recently. We saw the phrase a nation of immigrants being taken out. America's immigration, the departments went when you see a nation of immigrants being removed. When you are an immigrant when you grew up in a community that cause America home and appreciates that journey. How does that make you feel? Is that something that worries you is that something that that scares you I mean thing: if they had removes that too, just cannot give a more accurate description. America is a white settler, colony nation that would have been nice, but really
they do not think I know now, really they did it to sort of pursue this anti immigrant kind of races line and look man why people didn't just materialise in this hemisphere. Rights all these folks, if you're, not indigenous you're part of this thing that we call immigration and not wanting to recognize it not only erases the bloody history of why we're here, but also so such a rank attack on the communities that have really powered this nation went when we go back to the story of Lola you you realise that there is this. We had melding of two ideas. In Ireland born and that is bringing a piece of your world into America and then having America influence. What your world means and is, did you find that happen? in your life, because you came over at a young age and then you became a Euro
this, and I believe at the age of twenty, like how did you find that balance between going I'm from to make an republic, but I am also american. What helps is that so many people have gone through it in all. Usually when you are experiencing, you think you're, the only one you're wrestling with the formula you like. How much can I be dominican? How much can I be from New Jersey? But if you look round? You realize lots of people are wrestling with this. There's a lot of precedents and would really helps is to think of not as some weird bizarre by Faye were you they get one. Damn choice, that's like us. Sinister sadistic parfait, how bout you get that Who is more than one thing the right could literally be dominican and from New Jersey and there's no conflict fill the damp play. You feel that way,
