44 years during the biden administration, and he simply was not able to articulate why americans should given 82 year old man, another 4 years in office, and then he withdrew from the race. in the meantime, let's look at some of the parallels with 1968. you have a sitting president that is now out. you have an unpopular vice president who will now be the democratic nominee. you have a democratic convention that will take place in chicago again, that will be the site of huge demonstrations, not just about the future of the democratic party, but also in opposition to the genocide that's taking place in gaza. and you have just a few weeks ago, an attempt to assassinate donald trump. there's a lot to talk about. we're joined by to guess to are uniquely qualified to comment on these issues. garland nixon is a former senior law enforcement official from the state of maryland. after retiring, he transitioned into journalism and he makes regular appearances on fox news where

he analyzes contemporary political issues. he's also the co host of the critical our, which you can here monday through friday on radio. sputnik. our 2nd guest is arman . coney. he's a former colorado county commissioner and a former candidate for the us senate and the us house of representatives. gentlemen, thanks for being with us today. thank you for inviting me, john. thank you, john. darling, let's begin with you. in 2020 joe biden said that he intended to be a transitional president, one that would be a bridge from an older generation to a newer generation, with no great achievements to point to it his 4 years in the white house and fully cognizant of his health issues, why do you think he decided to run for re election as president, knowing that his age and his health issues would be so important? you know, i think the number one joe biden understands the dynamics of politics in the united states and the dynamics of power. and i think he understands that his job is not so

much to make decisions, to enforce decisions and to be in control of the united states, but to preside over a system of, of, of what i consider imperialism of world domination. and he knows that his job is to make it look palatable to the american people, to try to project a, an image of power and control to the world. and i think joe biden felt that irrespective of his physical condition, that he could create that an environment where people would see him as a leader. so i think he saw himself as a leader. he saw himself as a power broker and he felt that based on what he actually needed to do, that he could do it the people around him, no doubt. so otherwise. and i personally believe that they have been planning for many, many months to um, to replace him. he wasn't necessarily in on the plan until the last minute. so yeah, joe biden understands, is, it is job is his job was to actually, you know,

understand what was going on and to control the direction of foreign policy and domestic policy. i think joe biden is probably wise enough to know that he wouldn't be up to the task, but as a hand public for the ruling elite and job i knew pretty well. you can handle that task on tell us a little bit about comma harris as background. she's a former attorney general of california before that she was a prosecutor. she's a former us senator from california, but she's also widely unpopular for variety of reasons. with that said, democrats seemed to be rallying around her as the presumptive democratic nominee without even considering anybody else us. do you think that's wise? i think it's amazing. house shoes come out of the box, probably one of the best branding and marketing i've seen in 50 years and in american politics. when you think of the back story that if it's accurate, joe biden made the decision on sunday,

after 2 of his closest aids and assistance, gave him internal calling on the battleground states. that was the final straw for him. he didn't let tamala years know until minutes before he made the announcement is top. kent pain staff didn't know until just a little bit before hand and everyone on his campaign staff found out after he sent out the tweet. i find a little hard to believe because then what? i'm all i did immediately after bite and endorsed or was she started getting endorsements from top democrats. she raised over a $100000000.00, then a $150.00, and now over $200000000.00. she already went on to the campaign trail. so it's, it's, is it wise, i would say not wise that they had done that. it's too late that they did it,

but now that they've done it, they couldn't have done it any better for what their purposes to come out strong, get her brand name, going not have any kind of contest going then the democrats has been, we'll call it rigging the primaries since bernie versus hillary in 2016. this is sort of kind of that way. is it? is she the best candidate? i would say we, i, i wouldn't think so. i would think maybe there's a better candidate in devin newsome perhaps. but all of these people were considered to be top contenders for replacing joe biden. are all power hungry, and it's been amazing how she's done so far. so i would say, is it wise from just i've, i've run 7 times. i've worked on dozens of campaigns and i think, given the time before the convention in chicago, a few weeks out from now on august 19th. and given how far the distance between

now and november it, it appears to be a very smart move we'll find out later how smart it really was. but if you look at who else it would be and how they would have had to go into a i, i know some other comments that we've heard is that obama was kind of shooting for a open convention. obviously progressive is like myself, we're hoping for an open convention, but in terms of yankees versus red sacks, who's best when they've got to come out fast, hard and message and raise money. and then top of that she's had over $50000.00 volunteers. yesterday, there were over, i want to say for 400000 people, i'm one of her zoom calls. she said 40000 people under zoom calls. but in the

battle ground state, see it's early, but she's showing to be pauline below. below trump, garland, i want to talk a little bit about running mates. donald trump, who now oddly enough is the oldest man in american history ever to run for president. chose 39 year old j d vance to be his vice presidential running mate vance as a billionaire and a protege of peter t o. another billionaire who has close ties to the c. i. a vance has only been in the senate for 18 months. he's more doctrinaire than trump is in politics, for example, opposing abortion. and in the past, he even compared trump to 8 of hitler. was this a good choice for trump? i think it was a brilliant choice for trump. number one, a brilliant choice for trumping, i'll tell you what, because i believe number one in order to get out to, to win election, you have to do 3 things. number one,

turn out to base. never to turn out to base over 3, turnouts or base. you have to get your people to the polls and then you can get independence and steal some boats from a out of where gets a few other. why get people that would normally vote, but you have to turn out your base right now. the base of the party sees what, what true, false, or indifferent. the base of the party sees donald trump as something else as something different as a populace. there is no one in congress. they see maybe ramp always something like that. more as more of a populace than j. d. that so what they have done is the ruling elite, the traditional politicians, the people who see politics and the politics through the lens of traditional politics in the us are freaked out. no, he's terrible. why? because he's different, you something different. these are the people who and donald trump said things like george bush live us into a war. they said, oh my god, that's it. trump, is that what's over done?

and you can't say that you can't them, that's the ruling elite. but you can very well say that amongst the working glass people because they all believe it. so i think he chose a candidate that will be extremely unpopular amongst the media, chattering, talking head class extremely unpopular amongst the ruling elite. but uh, what is it not withstanding who j, the vance really is whether he's a billionaire. notwithstanding all of that, the base of the republican party see him as a trap in um, uh, outside or slash populist, and they will show up as opposed to the other side. campbell harris, i'm gonna add this. she's viewed as kind of more of the same. she is really invigorating people who are already going to vote. democrat, the, the black and white black women are the most loyal remove of the democratic party and they are completely fired up. but you only get one vote so they can be fired up . they were all coming there anyway. i think the people in the democratic party

that are most fired up about pamela harris, are the people that always vote democrat that would crawl through broken glass on the election day to get to the democratic party. young black people, it don't like her record at all as a prosecutor, so they're not bringing them out that she's not bringing the youth vote out. and you've got the concept of campbell harris, which is she's a black e mail, whatever, you know, the whole all of that stuff. which sounds great. oh, looks good. but then she, you know, it's like having a pretty car with a nice paint job. you gotta get into drive the car at some point and see if the engine is good and it is best or not. and her record tells me from 2020 that she starts off with good numbers. the more people see her the last day like are you are what your record says. you are. her record says when you, when she runs for president, the more she talks, the worst or numbers get the go down to the point where she's the only candidate

and they can get less black votes. if you go to the judge, i think she's, i think she didn't, i think she'll be completely wiped out. i don't see how campbell harris. i don't. one other thing i got an ad regarding the vice presidential candidates. so you have to, bob, you have to pick someone who you overshadow, you know, you have to pick a vice presidential candidate that doesn't look better better as a candidate that isn't more, a better spoke in that isn't a better or reader that is an a better uh, have a better political history. how does campbell harris speak someone who's a worst or rather than her, unless you pick joe barton? aren't as many as 9 people are being mentioned in the press as possible running mates for carla harris. but only 3 of them have told the media that they are being formally vetted as potential running mates. those are governor josh repair of pennsylvania, governor roy cooper, of north carolina and senator mark kelly of arizona. all of them have clear

strength. they are all from the so called battle round states. they're all seen as moderates. they are all very popular in their home states, but they also have negatives to shapiro is jewish, and calls himself a zionist. that could hurt with muslim democrats in the state of michigan. cooper is a democrat from a republican state and although he's popular, there's no guarantee that he can deliver in north carolina for harris and kelly, who really is a bona fide american hero. and a former astronaut. and the husband, a former congresswoman, gabby gifford, to herself, was shot in the head in an assassination attempt, is seen as strong with suburban women and hispanics, but perhaps a little too tough on immigration issues. what do you think would bring the most to a democratic ticket to out of the 3 candidates for vice president? the ones that you mentioned, john have said a lot of things that are pro sinus shapiro, the governor of,

of pennsylvania. he has said that the active is good for the pro uh the pro palestine actors are or he's liking them to the k k k. the other day one. yeah. now who was in the congress, senator mark kelly stood and applauded. when yeah, who was talking about what the active this were doing and that i haven't heard what cooper has said on the subject. but when you distill it all down, it's who is the who does wall street trust and like who is pro zionist? those are who is in favor of the military industrial, complex oil and gas. we're not going to get anyone who's against any of these groups. big pharma, big agriculture. thank you both for the analysis. we're going to take

a short break and when we come back we're going to get into some of the issues that will be the most important in the selection state to we'll be right back the. 2 2 2 2 the what is part of the, the employee would post good isn't the deepest view of us and building the word part? is it something deeper, more complex might be present? let's stop without kenesha is. let's go out of the moon despite everything. gray breeze go to the front lines with that eagerly awaited they pray in the trenches and bunkers and hospitals destroyed churches.

they pray for peace. take it out and look down and ask almost the 1st for what kind of stuff. but for the loss of your students, so mutual secondary in the civil sleep and your last inspection from watch for discharge, or just try to boost will shape or gotcha. so i've only been here, it's called the the best interest of the rest of the finish, the hold on all the sharon fish. just plug it back. both ask before i send this to nasa and join the

welcome back to the whistle. blowers. i'm john kerry onto. 2 we're speaking with garland nixon, he is a former senior law enforcement official from the state of maryland. after retiring he transitioned into journalism and he makes regular appearances on fox news where he analyzes contemporary political issues. he's also the co host of the critical our which you can here monday through friday on radio. sputnik and we're also speaking with armand coney. he's a former colorado county commissioner and former candidate for both the us senate and the us house of representatives on let's start with you. the republicans have made very clear the issues on which they want to run. that is the economy and the border. even though the economy is actually strong,

inflation has been stubbornly high, and republicans have successfully convinced their adherents that the us mexico border is open. something that they call an invasion of the southern united states to these issues resonate outside the republican party to the democrats. be worried . democrats have such a difficult time stain and a message with their messages going to be is we can't have donald trump become president because it's the end of the democracy. donald trump is going to take away women's rights. donald trump is a convicted felon. that seems to be their top message, and they're having a very difficult time combating on what is the solution. if you elect us, we will go ahead and continue to try to find out why the republicans will not sign a bill that they were originally in favor of until donald trump killed that. and,

and, and keep on the message john, if it's, i mean, talk about the blackboard a bit. okay, sure. obviously, i know not lot of people in, in the black community. yeah. i grew up. my dad was a long short me, you know, hard head wearing working class people. i still know a lot of longshoremen. i still know a lot of people in a working class community in a black community working class and working for it. none of that to them, none of it's about messaging. zip river, it's irrelevant. they don't let you know. here's, here's is number one. they're concerned about the price. they're concerned about their standard of living. they can look at the numbers. so i've heard people base basically i had some friends of mine in the black community. your yes, over jo biden's speech wednesday night. and they said things like, what the hell is he talking about the economies better than ever. they felt insulted because they go to the grocery store and they paid $40.00 for a tiny bag of stuff that used to be $19.00. and they have somebody now telling them

that things are better for them, even if i make $5.00 more an hour, but it costs me another $15.00 an hour to live. you can massage the and i think this is the problem. the democrats have their massaging the numbers as they all, they say, i don't, and you might heard it and black media and all the time, figures lie and lie are secret, right? and that is based on the numbers that you're given me. okay. you know, uh the, the economy is great based on what i have to pay for on a day to day basis. the economy is horrible for me, you know, what they think of. there's an old mean where there's the king standing out, you know, on the old balcony saying to the, talking to the peasants, and he said, our economy is doing great. now yours, on the other hand, not so much. that's what they hear from joe. bide. number one, i, i had a, a friend of mine who at the alone service pretty big on service, various crews going out. and he was, i could tell what he was really asking me as knowing that i'm

a political analyst is my blessing for him to vote. for trump, that's what he was saying, you know, or which slope was in. i was paying sold x amount of dollars for gas, and now i pay this. what the democrats don't understand is they can talk, they can come up with numbers, they can do all of these wonderful things when it comes down to what people are going to vote on their pocket book. and it's not looking pretty on the foot for working class and working for people. it's just terrible form and they're unhappy about it. number one, when immigration, same thing, it comes down to the same thing. what i hear in a black community, the anger of immigration sounds like this man, can you believe it? these people in new york, they're giving them. if they're giving them shelter, they're giving them all these cards with month, big blah, blah blah. what about the, what about my community? can you believe it? 95000000000, the ukraine, taiwan, whatever. and i'll come back to my community. they don't have enough money to put

strings on the basketball court at our local recreation center. so there is a certain feeling in the black community that they have been forgotten. so that the, the democratic under the democratic party, there's leaders, there's money for ward is money for everything, but them number and, and lastly that they're being gas with that they're feeling economic pain and their leaders are telling them everything's just wonderful and rosy. and they're being insulted. why is it that you can understand that we need to change our message? we need to tell you in a different way how wonderful your life is. even though your rent is going up by 40 percent. and the, the cost of food has gone up by 45 percent. you've only got 3 for the if they and i'll help people say that, what are they talking about 6 or 7 percent inflation? i used to pay $0.99, but it's now it's a dollar 99. so people have to deal with material economic realities. i think there's a anger and the frustration that the democrats aren't so much about messaging and

they won't even say, okay, we'll acknowledge that you're paying. i think they're looking at donald trump to so i'm expect a perspective. i have never 63 years of my life seen a time when i've seen as many black people who will either say, i'm voting for republican or who will get quiet when you ask them. what are your vote for? they don't have to tell you or, and done. i'm staying whole people who said to be a 2020 garland. you vote right, aren't you? you got that vote for body. you've got to make this happy. now say to me, i'm doing. i'm doing these. the only thing they care about is where they don't care about us. all these immigrate immigrants, they'll give them money and it's not an anti immigrant stand. it's a jealousy saying we've been here for 400 years. they've got a don for us. they've got money for everybody else. the democrats have blown, it's so bad, unless something changes, they're going to get what mach crone got, they're going to get what roots you sooner got when you ignore the people that you need in your base, as they say. and as they say in the sales,

the funny thing happens when you don't advertise nothing. and a funny thing happens when you do not address the material needs of a important block of voters vase. they don't, they're going to be breaking leads on, on november in november and tell us a little bit about some of the so called down valid races. the democrats feared for a long time that with an unpopular joe biden at the top of the ticket, that he would drag down democratic candidates around the country running for the senate and the house. he's not on the ballot now. so what is that doing these races? the republicans need to win the presidency and one senate seat to take back the senate. and the democrats need to win for house seats to take the house. can you venture a prediction for the white house in november? they're going to lose the senate. there's 8 states and play and, and the republicans only need one vote in order to gain the senate. so let's just,

i'm going to predict that the democrats lose, lose the senate, but they have, i think it's about 4 states that they have to pick up in the house. i think they're going to win the house because of the energy that's going in because of how you saw the shift to republicans 2 years ago in some states and some districts that could have easily been won by democrats and, or were held by democrats. those so either get back or the when that so they'll have the house, darlin, same question to you. give us your thoughts on the white house, the senate and the house. it's um i think donald trump wins the white house. handily. i think what we're looking at it's, it's something you know and politics. it's important to understand that you're looking at a snapshot in time. and that's one of the why. the reason that one of the reasons that i've been trying to use a historical context when it comes to campbell harris based on a number of things,

not the least of which being, you know, her personal appeal as an individual. you know, one of the things that i think is going on right now is there is a certain you for you, the you for is based on the concept of carol. i have to campbell harris as a full, as opposed to the person a scandal. the how she's an attractive woman, she's a woman of color, whatever that really means. i don't know if there are people in the black community who are now saying, you know, people say an african american wait a minute, or fathers in jamaica, or mothers from india and, you know, asking american there. but those are things that aren't decisive factor, right? because in, in the bottom line, right, if the election were today. okay. she, it'd be very, very close. campbell harris's written record from a historical context was, she came out doing well. and once she, you know, uh, tulsa, ever exposed a history that she has as an attorney general, that's extremely unattractive to minority classes. the people that feel that

they've been mistreated by the system of justice, that it's an injustice system that there's a, that there's a racist adjust the system, etc. so her history as a prosecutor is not something that's gonna work well for her a month young people, animals, people of color. and she has not shown an ability to be a successful lower rate or a successful speaker, etc. so you have to back out last time. so again, i'm going to guess or predict only. i could be wrong based on what happened in 2020 that, um, her numbers won't go up. that they'll go down. that this met snapchat sat in time, looks good, but as people here are more more, i think her numbers go down. therefore. so if we get to a point going into the election, where people have come to the conclusion, democrats have come to the conclusion that donald trump will win, and i kind of feel we're going to get there. at that point, the democrats are in big trouble. thank you both gentlemen. this was great.

politics is a tough business. president harry truman once said that if you want a friend in washington and get a job and same political consultant, james carville famously said about the 1992 election. it's the economy, stupid. that hasn't changed, even in the face of strong personalities. sure. abortion in the border are important to a lot of americans. but when push comes to shove, just like it is every 4 years american voters will hearken back to a question. said ronald reagan as when he was running for president in 1980. that question was this? are you better off today than you were 4 years ago? that's really the bottom line. i'd like to thank our guests, guardian, nixon and argument. tony for being with us today and thank you to our viewers for joining us for another episode of the whistle blowers. i'm john kerry. aku, please follow me on subsets as john here ya to. we'll see you next time the. 2 2 2 2 the,

the there was a time when i started to was abused. due pain flowers divided the continental lawn for tom box them. so it was divided as a hunting ground. if we do not do not the corner knives as we come again, we know that they are those who want the mazda continent to step and 8, but the mazda clinton, and never be stopped, because the mazda continent must be great. she will only be great. on the shore does all of us sons and daughters on by the sun all day. so now

click on the goodwill time full on let us confess about underground east the mazda upon the facility. and you still wouldn't be able to build vehicle taxes from the low d my most of my store. but as the, the scope of them would be the price for that has to be in mississippi and last time it wasn't there. so the, the, the,
