candidates in these places they may have a better chance of winning but i'm sure the party apparatus doesn't really care for a lot of this talk about. you know free college education for everybody medicare for all because these are very expensive programs and nobody is figured out in the democratic party or anywhere else how to pay for these but of course you know the republicans have done this with their tax cuts that's what they do to get a lack of good ok i mean well and i mean let me living in fact let me jump instead of the increase and i have to get we have to go to a hard break after a short break we'll continue our discussion with democratic socialism stained with our.

finally and also this weekend. now how does it. keep the front. line and if he would be would it be that easy to find that out and you. must see people. getting. killed but i've done my duty on my little bit and i found out a little bit that we are not out of money coming. from our block to get it but it. says this must be like. some forces of.

the sea. you can be no problem. because you know provision of my bike when i want to. ask but i. get. your for your title i lost his boss because i just got then you just gotta go with us as you like and just like anybody on a month although it doesn't but the bit sort of i don't mean any of them. so i says you know what i was you're not. you know just i mean what almost bought it i'm already but it was but. i remember the lord we're going to. give it up as well i must be here for you. well get off on getting worse but those

were the order they just needed to sound as though we're going to spend on one of this but of course this latest this where this part of this i'm going to come up with my bet if i see you could have got a bomb i just got that already yes equestrian he thought if you think of it i think with you you're going to have antiquity my part of me just gotta go you. welcome back to cross talk we're all things are considered i'm peter lavelle to remind you we're discussing democratic socialism. ok let me go back to ron here and. again i want to stress the issue of identity politics because when i look at some of the things i mean democratic socialists of america i mean i've been around for a while ok and i looked at some of their older literature and you're spot on they looked at more and working people getting

a fair shake that's fine but what i see now is this infusion of identity politics and i think that you know i can say pretty confidently given election results over the last few years that doesn't work it doesn't work for the democratic party but they they don't you know that when you talk about transgender toilets and stuff like that it turns off the heartland i'm from the heartland this is something that people they want the factories to start opening up again they want their wages to go up and then you have these things you know this political correctness and and these pronouns all this nonsense and i don't have any patience for it because it doesn't advance my life or the people around me how do you address that run. well there is a world of difference between exploiting identity politics for just political jargon nonsense and addressing issues affecting different communities i would argue that the d.s.a. is doing the latter who's doing the former i would say that's what the democratic establishment is doing so so i think i'll lot of the issues with identity politics

as in using it for wrong and dishonest means i think that's something the democratic establishment is doing and there is again there's a world of difference between them and the d.s.a. and movements like it the democratic establishment they're the ones that like to point their fingers at people less powerful than them and say oh you didn't support hillary clinton well clearly your a sexist you're not a big fan of harris well you're a sexist and a racist that's where identity politics yeah floats in a dishonest way and there's a world of difference between that and addressing issues of different communities one is a good thing one not so much well steve would probably wrong just proved our point i mean in this identity politics it is it's a dragon that eats its own tail so obviously trump supporters are sexist and homophobic but it within the democratic party if you didn't support hillary then you're just as bad as the trump people i mean this is the thing hannity. right it's

a way hillary will tell you if you're a woman you listen and you didn't vote for her because you were listening to your boss and your husband your boyfriend and you're not strong enough to stick up for your own beliefs you were told who to vote for don't forget half the country is a basket full of deplorable zx and that's the mainstream democratic party look again i can't say this enough when you look at a free this free that. by the way let's look to latin american countries let's look at venezuela what's the inflation rate there forty thousand percent i mean please i beg i beg the democratic party adopt the leftist ideals here adopt the platform see adopt the ideas here you'll never win another election never it's impossible in this country that and the fact that they don't see that really calls into question what they are what their goal is because they're not dumb they're not stupid people they know they can't win generalized elections and the good point made by ron

earlier. democrats are running conservatives conservative democrats who are antipolo c. and to appoint pro trump on issues so when districts and you're talking about nationalizing democratic socialism it doesn't make any sense ok mn how do you explain bernie sanders then gudrun how do you explain bernie sanders and i mean peter you even said yourself bernie sanders is the biggest story here yeah do you guys if you think that it can't win and i mean we don't disagree on the corruption of the democratic establishment that's one thing where all of us will be in agreement but how do you explain bernie sanders a guy who was an open socialist who came out of nowhere and almost pretty much constant grassroots revolution probably would of had the establishment not cheated him. applauded in the heartland with a true populist message how do you explain bernie sanders if you entertain the good

he says the democratic socialism can't win steve if you want to play. because bernie sanders yeah because bernie sanders is a polished socialist he doesn't talk about any of the other issues all it talks about is income inequality it's unfair unfair unfair he doesn't get into specifics it is talk about the jail's he doesn't talk about the the groups that you talk about transgender etc he focuses on one message and one message only which resonates with a certain percentage of the population a rather large percentage perhaps but when push comes to shove if you want to run as a democratic socialist or a socialist and you have to own the other policies that go with it and that will never fly ok i let me get i've been in washington i mean is is is this a pivot. transformational moment because you know in many ways you could see the trump is the same thing for the g.o.p. because a lot of the purists in the g.o.p. still hate trump ok and and also what we have here in the democratic party you know

we there is a huge split i mean i think all of us would agree that income inequality is a big problem in that it's the single most important issue that can divide a society we can always have these other issues on the side income inequality is dangerous here. is the democratic party really being able to address that issue well i think we have to i think both parties. have noticed the income inequality even some conservatives have started talking about it but the problem is the parties differ on the cars of course the cars to the democrats or the democratic socialists are you know big corporations and. you know pry excessive profits for corporations and not giving it back to the worker for the conservatives it's that the the very very opposite it's that the system has become so bogged down with regulations and other things and big government that the

market is not allowed. to you know all the regulations create essentially oligopolies and that sort of thing and that that causes incoming inequality so it just depends on which side of the fence you're on politically ok ok you know ron i mean one of the it was brought up to me here is that you know this mantra you know with free there's free education free welfare free. education for everyone and they still want to have an open borders i so i want to harp on the open borders thing is i mean this is been amplified over the last few months here i mean if you want to have a big welfare state a super welfare state don't you think you should have a border to make sure the rest of the world doesn't take advantage of it i mean the people on the inside the burger to say whoa whoa we want this for ourselves because we're paying for it ok so they open borders argument kind of deflates unless you

want cheap labor go ahead ron. well i mean again at the moment advice in open borders are two different things it did soon no one is calling for just complete no nothing whatsoever but where everyone is calling for reasonable border security at least to the extent that i see it what people are against is the brutality of ice secondly it's not free stuff quote unquote what it is is a reallocation of resources we spend more on bombs in the military than pretty much the next thirteen countries combined just about we have more than enough resources in this country to have a single payer health care nonprofit single payer health care which you know the community would pay for it's not free stuff it's a reallocation of resources of what we're already paying we already pay a higher g.d.p. for health care than most other countries and we get less because of a broken for profit system same with education we could reallocate our resources to

have to have to wish in free college in this country we choose not to same with a green new deal or an infrastructure program we have the resources to do all this stuff but we don't allocate it that way instead we just give bonus bomb money to the trump administration or whoever's in power ok omid do the same stuff i think of you know education was mentioned then that's another raw point for me i think that all it all government expenditure is an edge and almost all except for maybe preschool and kindergarten should be cut because all they do is teach an ideology this nonsense postmarks is post structuralism and it really brings up people into the world that can't do anything except a yell and scream about. a perceived victimhood ok i mean i was in the university of california system for a long time and they don't teach you much they just heat you to be angry and teach you to be a victim go ahead steve. well well look at what the attorney general sessions said

the other day talking about the universities calling some of them out by name that you know they're raising a bunch of snowflakes they have safe rooms in quiet rooms in places you could run to and you can't offend people perceive the fences and bob of la the whole thing is becoming a total joke look again all this talk of free stuff at least i think ron acknowledge it's not free everybody pays for it and it is a reallocation of funds i mean that so to say that ice is brutal is insane to say that without ice you're not you not advocating open borders is insane the public is already the polls show they don't we if we didn't really. know what limitations. there was no but they were it were and i'd like to know who you would keep out i'd like to know who you would keep out on the what circumstances i dare you to name what the circumstances would be and who you would keep out look the public is again out of a one no podium today because the public would never go for these radical leftist

ideals proposals policies so plays somehow let your candidates run on these policies and you will suffer worse defeats then you did under obama whose candidates all throughout the country state local government leverage level got slaughtered in the elections now that you lost over a thousand can see all over all in the nation so you want to make it two thousand adopt these policies ok i'm the new i mean obama the guy who ran on a center left platform and won twice didn't deliver on it by the way but yeah but yeah but ronnie didn't have didn't have coattails ok and that's undeniable ok ivan you know what we've. run in. constant here what we've seen on this program is not really a policy difference it's a cultural difference and i think that's what the election showed and i and then unfortunately this cultural the division people are not talking to each other we did a pretty good job on this program last thirty seconds go do you have anyone in washington

well i would just say i think you know we need to stop the stereotypic yelling and talk about the issues when we talk about all these expensive programs that cut the defense budget the numbers just don't add up i'm for all for cutting the defense budget naf but it's not going to pay for single pair health care or a university education for everybody we're twenty one trillion dollars in debt we've got one hundred trillion dollars in deficit and i think both parties stone address the facts ok gentlemen all i can say is to be continued that's all the time we have many thanks and i guess in washington new york and in-laws. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at r.c.c. a next time and remember hospitals.

to protect him he said. looking up at the bases. in the fog. yasi will review this is who you are talking to. know that i'm going to. come up ok i'll get one of them to meet you it's very easy. and that a lot of what i think about comedy is good but i'm a look the same as art when i was up the money into the magazine with me. taking a long look unless mom comes home and. decides to leave the dog there we go places there's a long long. long way before you meet. other people must go from the office on the front. it does look

like that. i. feel. let out right now but i wonder how much i don't know that i'm not out of luck though the money out of the money out of the money that they let examine. this was a good time to. try to move. mom. wasn't i wasn't just a little lucky enough why not. why it generated the old people we believe just a little bit here. bottom of my case i don't want them up or so johnny borrell the moment i've got a mother how do a little like you sir there's

a lot of money on the work you might be old enough to want to look behind you. wanted to put on a look most party without all the mother's blood it. just . plain. plain. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the us has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty

five percent of global wealth you longs to be all for rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is one one business show you can afford to miss the one and only. scotland. i i. i

donations to cover his defense it's paying off as well he's raised over one hundred fifty thousand dollars in just two days. and reports it's not always bad business to be dismissed by the president. and donald trump was a host on the reality t.v. show the apprentice he really took the show's iconic catchphrase to heart you're fired you're fired. now that donald trump is the president getting fired by him isn't exactly a career setback take the case of michael cohen this is michael collins lawyer urging people to support michael cohen with an online fundraiser because some people might be laughing but the cash is flowing and then there's peter struck the disk raised former f.b.i. agent who sent to trump messages to his mistress now he's raising money online he's already raised four hundred forty three thousand dollars half a million dollars on

a go fund me just for hating donald trump has cancer patients on the side that are like hey we hate him too can you pay for my treatments i know you really hate him we could tell and then there's andrew mckay the f.b.i. director who was fired without benefits now nick cave has already managed to raise five hundred thirty nine thousand dollars and if you want to get more creative than crowd funding you can always write a book i'm rosa manigault newman's new book unhinged tells stories from inside the white house thirty four thousand copies were sold within the first ten days and before on the rose it was james komi the fired f.b.i. director now he wrote a book about donald trump and within the first week six hundred thousand copies flew off the shelf writing books about donald trump is a smart move this year every single title on the new york times nonfiction best seller list has been about donald trump so it double trump yells his natori is catch phrase that you don't sweat it it could be

a ticket to making more money than he paid you to begin with what people have to realize one of the bout is a donald trump has been more. a source of jobs for more people who have done nothing more than become or. exist as a disgruntled either former trope of fan or employer associate i mean right now it is a cottage industry to see how much you can hate donald trump b. trade donald trump and cash in the mean time i have never seen any thing like this an obsession a fixation and obsessive compulsive disorder a focus to big way should i could think of no other way no no psychological construct that can best describe this unnatural and unhealthy. focused rage and the not just not let me clarify

not over a particular policy program platform vision idea no it's just am. french police describe the city of grenoble near the us the french chicago beer expressed grave concern over the rocketing crime rates which is seeing some politicians even try and avoid the area altogether. let's look. weird so many things happened one of those now we are free you're free to go out and be why we can steal your jewelry can grab your bag we have never seen anything like that the police used to be more tough but now they're afraid her

out of. her. out of their lives if the crime rate is significant and we're not compared to cities of the same size the city is plagued with drug trafficking and because there's not a single week without a knife attack on a criminal settling their schools. had to have a new fact that interior minister of iraq along came to visit for cool in the assam region we thought he would visit grenoble even for a short visit. in the future and we will of course make additional efforts in this area. click on that so i'm talking preserve phrases because there are japanese that books male and female to just come and grab them in broad daylight so no one even moves

because they're scared to death so the police are afraid of those crooks and only because they have kalashnikovs i know they're on to the teeth with the weapons of war and the municipal police have nothing against me by the national police i believe christian is a school that is the criminals who are the law in this city. the us democratic party has cried foul. over a quote sophisticated that its voter database just months before the midterm elections the party security chief approached the f.b.i. over the incident even stressed that the democrats must remain vigilant to head off the elections the media were quick to hint at who may be to blame the democratic party's voter database targeted with a sophisticated hacking attempt d.n.c. just confirm the n.b.c. news has alerted authorities to an attempted it had all their voter file and the

takeaway really is if this continues to be a major issue any attack on a political party or campaign is important for us all to take seriously but it's a big but later on when the state party chief said method this so called it was in fact in his security test it was initiated by the democrats in michigan brunch which coordinated what it was up to with head office the branch chief says it's donald trump's refusal to crack down on foreign interference that spurred them into action and visited reporter dave lindorff ses election tampering claims are being exaggerated. the meddling issue is. first of all i think has been overblown in the first case you know when they found evidence of. you know russian based. organizations that were buying ads and things on facebook it was such a tiny amount during the two thousand and sixteen election that it was laughable so

you know i think most people most sensible people realize that the election in two thousand and sixteen was not significantly impacted by meddling it was effected dramatically by a really bad candidate running a really bad campaign. meanwhile staying stateside on in the state all of louisiana for pipeline activists on a journalist have been arrested and charged controversy when you launch the remitting activists say they're not facing increased police repression including the use of tasers here's the pipeline at the center of the story.
