from that beautiful city. really you said it's time for democrats to stop bashing donald trump why he seems so bashful well that and it's almost natural that's what you want to do but you could become awfully lazy and ultimately not victorious if you stay only what the bastion i think you have to call him out when it's appropriate to so do i think you have to nail him and that gives you lots of he gives you lots of opportunities but i think you have to address the needs of the american people whom hillary clinton did not address when she sought the presidency if we're going to win this time around congressman al green a democrat of texas recently told c.-span there's a good likelihood that articles of impeachment will be brought against president trump if democrats win the house is that wrong to do that to say that no not at all but you've got to be very careful to make sure you say don't rely upon

my being women to vote impeachment every democrat practically would be willing to do that what you ought to rely upon is my ability to get your home in san francisco that you can't afford a my ability to get a teacher a salary that's equal to a firefighters or to a policeman or to a health care worker at the highest level people understand that help them figure out how to pay their mortgage how to pay their rent and how to pay for their kids to go to college with these outrageous fees clearly all of those things are still with you whether you impeach drop or not. do you think down president a win control of the house i think democrats have a great shot at winning in control of the house my comment in my column last sunday was clearly designed to awaken democrats to the fact that they have five or six

more months to really market democrats really market candidates and believe me in this day and age it's not so much a party that people of embrace and in my opinion larry it's came to that we need quality candidates we want in alabama with jones because of that horrible fellah name or that the republicans put in place we won in several other places the same way in georgia a black woman just got the nomination for the governorship of that state unprecedented in this nation literally for a black woman to be nominated for governor whether or not she whens i don't know but the agenda that she ran was an alternative agenda every democratic candidate or to figure out what his or her alternative agenda can be and we can when you've written a democrat since a quote need to look like the adults not like the pack of screaming kids on the

playground i mean you think members of the party have been acting that way well i think many members of the party have been so outraged about trump and trump's conduct that they just can't get away from lead in the world know how offended they are is that an world animal well it may or may not be you sometimes voters don't pay as much attention as they need to as evidenced by the fact that in pennsylvania trump beat hillary and michigan chump beat hillary and it was because people didn't really pay attention the message didn't get their attention the candidate they. get their attention we need candidates who gets the attention of the voters and cause the intensity of those voters to be expressed on election day not just at some rally when we are doing it some of the split in your party will in

progressive wing of the establishment wing can that be healed before twenty twenty i think this party needs one more unit and that one more unit is somebody who can speak to both of those sides larry we're in bad shape when we get distracted by an argument between elizabeth warren and somebody in the democratic party on the establishment side we get in bad shape when we don't embrace somebody like dianne feinstein who's running for reelection and we find a way not to do that as a democratic party that's counter productive we ought to be about running an agenda that gives each of us the opportunity to participate and we are except that when somebody represents a better opportunity to when we are united behind them and we want to be an adult about that they're not enough out also and the democratic party echoing those words

if you were in the house of representatives and your party gains control would you vote to have nancy pelosi come back as speaker. that's a policy is saying lay the best things democrats have she's not a lefty she is not a right he she is a person that operates to elect democrats that's her role she does not get so burdened when all these policy options that she becomes offensive to democrats she literally says less elect folk and then let the folk be the expressions of what we do as a party and as a group of people nancy pelosi would be my candidate and i tell you i think i would be helpful and getting nancy pelosi elected you're mayor of san francisco and rudy giuliani was mayor of new york so i gather you would together at mayors conferences

which mayors meet every year what's your thought on his current role as mr trump's personal lawyer he has literally frankly embarrassed those of us who are part of a wonderful operation in this country in the late ninety's that ran cities. giuliani and willie brown were on the cover of newsweek as the two outstanding mayors if you recall i was interviewed on one of your programs on this same subject and at that time giuliani was doing the job that mayors do and he was doing it with the plum clearly but at this moment i have no idea larry what his drive and giuliani he is not even doing a good job in my opinion representing a client who looks guilty it seems to me you really need to go back and figure out

where all that talent has been clustered and try to get that talent to come back that made him a good mayor when he served in new york do you think the stormy daniels thing in the robert mode investigation is going to bring trump down i believe that robert marlin could very well be the single most important person that this nation as the cleanse us of all the kind of bad things that president trump represents i if i'm from i would fear me more than i fear anything anybody else milla as a talented human being he is a principled human being he is a fearless human being at no point will he make any concession to trump that's inconsistent with what the facts and the law supports for trump that's dangerous everybody seems to agree that jerry brown's been

a great governor you recently suggested that he might make a possible twenty twenty presidential candidate do you think he do that. i think jerry brown if he was called upon i don't think he would ever do it on his own i think we would have to reach out and ask him to come rescue us and he would represent someone who neither side of this party that's at war with in itself a democrats that he as the war within themselves would be able to challenge whether or not jerry brown knows what he's doing can do it and has done it believe me i served with jerry brown i was the only elected official that endorsed him for his first statewide office back in the one nine hundred seventy s. when he ran for secretary of state i have been a jerry brown admirer of for a long time this guy has skills and ability and age is not even relevant where he

is concerned he has as sharp and they as they fish and and as enthusiastic and as energy driven now as he was then he's also very courageous when it comes to pushing policies which republicans have real trouble dealing with jerry brown because he out performs them on many things they care about and he's able to sell it to their voters better than they can that's jerry brown and that's why i want him as a candidate what do you think of the idea of l.a. i met eric garcetti running for president i think. eric garcetti kummel harris gavin newsome we've got three super potential candidates each of them in my opinion will be ready for the nomination by the time two thousand and twenty comes around but i don't know whether or not

they will go but eric garcetti if i had gavin newsome i'd be happy he didn't run for governor he would have been a formidable opponent for newsom there is willie you go owes a great leader you brought people together you work well with members of the other party what happened why why do we have such a divide in our country well i think it's because. we have been indifferent to people's real needs we have been committed to process rather than product in the old days the franklin roosevelt days the harry truman days you had to produce something to keep people interested and your candidate say we democrats began back in the seventy's and eighty's to fold in that this whole business of doing theory do one process around that very only when bill clinton came along that we began to think of product but we even

criticize clinton for produce some product that was more luck what gingrich was recommended on things like welfare than what democrats theoretically were for we should have been progress. would taken care of poor people you better figure out how to package it so everybody shares and the benefits from the humanity that comes with doing that we didn't do that larry and we have not done that and the results are all that we have i mean for now literally failed when a.o.l. i'm talking to you hope we do it again soon great to see a look in so well all right larry nice to talk with you too are so sue media sites like facebook and twitter censoring conservatives brant bozell head of the media research center says they are and that he has truth and he joins me after the break stay right there more politicking right after this.

but it would kind of go into accepting you need to have turned out to try ration of independence that's what's hot stuff and him push away that is the beginning and the nightmare of the trio of how faked and don't fall in love from a book. that are out here that. much as you just read that is all. just. fun and he has said i had been but been alaw don't suggest that you get outside of that much on them and. by then i got a session on the nod that i am. by then is a shift on. a stock that's not set in the first

going then what. sucks for someone not so it. can be no surprise was it behoved even the pope multiple injuries among can connect to so the keeps a few bits of the book but the show's reality amar's on the phone to the book and even perfectly possible sources say yes but i can. a loss of what it might. all of a bit of luck. a falafel on the focus on the something we'd watch. on the hunt for. a. good look. at the middle of the comedy or the.

politicking we've heard of the russian troll farms and other groups stoking divisions among americans via social platforms but is there also a current senate effort by sites like facebook and twitter to censor conservative posts and opinions that's the claim by a group of noted conservative writers and voices and they've recently teamed up to demand change brant bozell is the founder of the group he's president of the media research center. we recently spoke to him about his group's claims abayas on social media here is that interview what brand you claim that the social media and tech companies exhibit

a bias against conservatives can you give us some examples. yeah i do there's been an awful lot of complaints that have been coming in the last year specifically from conservative organizations across the dial complaining about this and sometimes larry you know you you listen to them and and you know they're not exactly accurate they don't understand the algorithms they might not have good material and the like but other things that you listen to you know have a basis in truth so we decided to investigate twenty eight different claims and we drill down quite deeply and all twenty eight of them the know the numbers are telling in five cases we found that they didn't have merit at all in nine cases we found we called them questionable for example facebook took down a post of a conservative organization that conservative organization complained and then the

post went back up was it a function of bias where they've taken it down was it a technical glitch you don't know so we put that under their technical and then we found fourteen cases fourteen complaints that absolutely did have merit so fifty percent of them absolutely had merit and it's very very troubling it's things such as facebook taking down conservative things as trending but putting up things that with that weren't trending as trending it's things like twitter being caught on camera on hidden camera where you've got twitter people talking about and gleefully boasting about shadow banning conservatives eve got groups that are are role whining on the left this organizations like the southern poverty law center to decide what the word hate is and they are groups that have labeled christian groups as haters which christian groups have then been taken off websites this is the kind

of stuff that's going on and it's troublesome do you want the googles in the face books to put on everything. no no i don't think you can scream fire in all in a movie theater i think it's perfectly acceptable to take down and to refuse to allow something that advocates terrorism i think it's perfectly acceptable to take down something down that that is going to involve trial for not pornography but those have to be the extremes if you treat the rest of it i think one of the four points that we've made larry is is is rely on the on the first amendment it's a pretty darn good document and it were it's kind of worked for a before for since the beginning of this republic apply the same principles to so social media and you should be ok you don't want them to take down the southern poverty law center you just don't want things that the southern poverty law that

you may be critical of the southern poverty law center to be taken down. here we have what would best for it's for things one is clarity explain what you mean by that word hatred you know the hip word hatreds is very very broad and i gave you examples of how it is misappropriated they've got to explain what the terminology is second one is transparency all these problems would would be i think they would they would be resolved if we knew what the process was and we don't you just hear about these things occurring and after the fact you might hear some specifics be more transparent about the process and then the third one the fourth one was the free speech condition but the third one is that conservatives need to have not a seat at the table but in equal seating at the table so if you're going to have a southern poverty law center whatever the heck is its opposite on the right you

should have that as well if you have it but i've argued to the mark zuckerberg of the world don't have any of this kind of oversight it just gets you into trouble best not to have any oversight of that nature at all. what is the difficulty in defining hate. well if you have got if you're relying on a group like the southern poverty law center as an advisor as twitter is as google is as amazon is as spotify is and they have their definition of hate and they call as hateful organizations groups like these like the family research council and other traditional organizations that believe in traditional marriage they are now being portrayed as anti homophobic haters and they're the ones who are advising these companies tech companies best that's a serious serious problem he told fox business news recently that the media has

a vested interest in seeing president trump fail. you know no question about it there's no there no larry there's no effort firstly no effort whatsoever to to get to real journalism today i think is the darkest hour certainly in my lifestyle in my lifetime when you don't have a search for truth but instead you have a desire to undermine this man not they have to date it's month after month it's sincere arrived in office we've looked at this the the data aren't pericope and i challenge anyone to question our data you can't do it because it's right there right in front of you a month after month after month it's just startling larry when the negative coverage is ninety one ninety two ninety ninety two ninety one ninety his best month in the national media coverage was during his honeymoon period in january of

last year when it was only eighty five percent negative now i understand i understand this is a man who's controversial i understand that people fight so i understand all of that so there is by necessity going to be that news that is negative but there's no attempt at balancing and there's certainly certainly no attempt virtually no attempt at reporting good news or burned how about and this is not deniable hold up the lying the president. and i known for two years tells a lot of a lot he's. how do you deal with that as a conservative how do you how do you handle i mean he does he does tell a lot of. you know you don't like it and i don't mean to play the game a moral equivalency however sort of barack obama so to bill clinton and not natalie though they did they did they did and i'm not going to play moral equivalency but i

don't also like this suddenly people suddenly care about lying well they're going to go buy this for barack obama bill clinton made a tweet every day. no no they did you know and you know you. and i know i look at some of these tweets and i just shake my head and i say to myself if the man didn't invite so much negativity unnecessarily how much better things would be for him and some it's a waste it's not always treat i don't suggest as a woman street i think he's done a lot of things that just you know he picks fights that he doesn't need to be picking he picks a fight with arnold schwarzenegger as. the apprentice when taco truck is still the the producer of it he still picks a fight with arnold shorts and they are you know it's kind of silly stuff and he's done silly stuff and i don't say otherwise but i think he's also done some very good stuff for which he's not getting credit do you think the googles in the face

books will change. oh larry i hope so i hope they will because it's in their interest to let me play with the problem is it's larry it's conservatives but what if it were liberals you're talking about whether we like it or not the communications of the future just twitter and facebook alone reach one point eight billion people worldwide so if there's a censorship is not of censorship in the united states it's a censorship worldwide and we have to be very very careful it's very very difficult you know i've been a big critic of the news media over the years. there's a difference between bias and censorship and we're looking at censorship and i think the mark talk of bergs of the world i do believe i do believe peace and sear when he says that it concerns him as well as left wing as he is i think he is he is sincere but the problem does exist first amendment is difficult it's what separates

us from most of the world and. it is it is but we you know we never we never should believe that it exists in in a vacuum there are limitations you know steve allen the late great steve allen and i used to talk about this a lot we know you can't drop an f. bomb on your license plate although more sympathy means out there want to be able to do that there are limitations to it but if this is going to be would suck up or wants is the big marketplace of ideas and you've got to open it up to ideas ideas that don't hurt as a conservative are you concerned about the mole or pro. oh i'm i'm just i'm i'm concerned about so many things regarding that probe not the findings that that may come up come out of it if the findings of the findings of society lives with them but it's the scope is the whole way it's being done larry we don't know

what the scope of it and i cannot believe forget the congress not knowing what the scope not being told what the scope is here when i deserve to know why is he looking for what's the time frame what's the budget what is going on here why must it all be cloaked in secrecy and this is what he's the whole idea of the deep state you know who are these people when is it going to end cause what are the parameters here how are they are they indicting paul you know they're and i think paul manner for for something that he did or didn't do fourteen years before he met donald trump and yet this is supposed to be an investigation into russian collusion how could investigations be open that would take away from the purpose of the investigation no i think parameters the parameters of it what were the parameters that he was given he was clearly given a set of guidelines that there are guardrails on an investigation like this what what what is it is investigating we really don't know then answer if he's

investigating russian collusion why did he indict paul man a fork who had nothing who who's who is the lead to crime occurred fourteen years before this campaign brant you are always so interesting thank you so much for joining us we hope we can do a lot more thank you thank you for having me got something to say about this episode of politic you give so check out my facebook page or tweet me at kings things and don't forget to use the politicking hansch tag thanks for joining me that's all for this edition of politicking.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is on the off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to see you see a successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. but we kind of go into accepting you need a lot of trial because i ration over independents that's what's hot stuff and you push away that is the beginning and the nightmare of the trio of how faked in the halls of the most mobile.

and now everything is being turned into a massive cloud of dust. not a correspondent witnessed is how north korea keep defending the bargain with the u.s. by destroying its nuclear test site. just dollars off the demolition donald trump canceled a potentially historic u.s. north korea summit leaving pyongyang wondering if its peace efforts were appalling the day. french president mccraw recognizes russia's strong role on the world stage as he joins blonde amir peretz and at the international economic forum in st petersburg now it's.
