censorship is on the rise in the united states and that nearly 2 thirds 62 percent of americans say the political climate these days prevents them from saying things they believe because others might find them offensive digging deeper into the institute's findings one discovers that these fears may actually cross party lines with 52 percent of democrats 59 percent of independents and a whopping 77 percent of republicans all agreeing that they are afraid to share in public some of their but most basic political opinions in fact according to cato the only political group where a majority feel unafraid to express their beliefs publicly are hardcore major league liberals nearly 6 in 1058 percent of staunch liberals feel they can say what they believe. so basically those who believe in free health care for all ending systemic racism equality for the l.g.b. t.q. community no more wars for fun and profit destroying the astronomical wealth gap

affecting this country and who support the me too movement on afraid to stand by their beliefs and say i'm louder whether at home on the streets or in the workplace while everyone else appears to be hiding their beliefs while crew quivering quivering quivering in fear oh the dreaded cancel culture of. seems like a good time to start watching the homes. you want to what's going on a cd the street you want to see. the missiles you like to see the rises you always state i'll see you always rolls royce gracie suggests least systemic dissent says the late show which would be so when the guild has. welcome everybody to watch it harks i am tyrone and i live and joining us today to
3:32 am
discuss america's a pair fear to share their political views is newsmax newsmax insider and cox amanda thank you so much for joining us to talk a little bit about this kind of crazy council culture and everything else under the sun when it comes to censorship in america but to be here thanks for having me so the cato institute polling says that roughly 62 percent of americans say the political climate these days prevents them from saying things they believe because others might find them offensive now how is this the worst form of blowback from the evils of the quote unquote cancel culture or is this actually just 62 percent of people i don't know being respectful and not wanting to offend their friends and coworkers were better beliefs what are your thoughts i wish it was the latter but the people who are offensive seem to be pretty loud and proud of my social media whereas i get a lot of messages from people. we're wanting to participate more in civil discourse you know especially around the protests this summer and people who are concerned with issues of racism and social injustice i often heard people say i wish i could
3:33 am
say publicly what you're saying i wish i could be more involved but nervous about this. and stepping on this cable also found that 77 percent of conservatives since 2017 have felt afraid to express their political viewpoints in public what do you think this fear comes from considering since 2016 considered by the ology has dominated the white house the traditional system and up until recently both the u.s. house and senate why are conservatives so frightened to express their beliefs when they have dominated most branches of the u.s. government for a few years now. well you know actually i don't think it's limited to a party to be honest and i agree with you republicans are often the least courageous on some of these issues and i you know i kind of i'm not a libertarian but i appreciate the cato study because those guys and gals come at it from a real hard core libertarian streak a look i think i think that the media the mainstream media what i call the fake
3:34 am
news media and i include fox news in there has been so good at bludgeoning people that they really are in a position where 30 percent of the country thinks that fox news tells 100 percent of the truth 30 percent say c.n.n. does and the rest of us are like hey wait a 2nd we're not really in the mood to get bludgeoned by them but i look i think that there's a failure of failure in courage a failure of courage for lots of conservatives as well as others i'm not surprised by that at all. coming out of right field is martin who joins us on the break all right it's guys we see political beliefs pushed and debated constantly on us news programs especially on cable news channels like fox and amazon b c mentioned this before do you believe this over saturation of right. persons left the base is playing a role in people at home across the country and you know democrats independents and republicans you know being afraid to expose on their political beliefs in you know
3:35 am
private settings are we getting too much of it on t.v. this kind of constant push of the left right paradigm and people shouting about it . well i think we're getting too little of the truth right i think people are parroting positions and you guys know i did a stint at c.n.n. for about 6 months i was a contributor and they flew me up to new york and i saw you know people that say that cable news doesn't make money they make money hand over fist and they use it to study not how to tell the truth but how to influence people and so i lasted about 5 or 6 months and you know they never told me what to say but they were clearly looking for a certain kind of a friction right and they weren't interested in the truth you know i would have in the breaks i was on that period of time where i was on for like an hour with anderson cooper in a panel of 5 others during the breaks most of the people would sit there not talk and i try to ask paul begala or ana navarro to do debate they didn't want to debate they were playing roles in a in a in a sort of well scripted if not totally stated play and it wasn't about the troops
3:36 am
nobody wanted to fight for the truth they wanted to fight for sort of the the ratings and for sort of the play acting thing so that's what we're missing in america is not enough fearless people partly because you get canceled if you're i got in trouble for talking about how they were rates this new people on there were racist in one direction and i got in trouble for that and so a lot of times you lose your job and eventually it weeds out it's one of things i loved about r t the 1st times i was on the edge scholtz he let it rip you could go any which way you want to and it was real debate going on in real truth was sought. another place where real debate happens is typically on college campuses one set of interesting statistic shows that over 40 percent of republican college graduates and 60 percent of republicans with a post-graduate degrees fear that they. political views could actually harm their current and future employment hannah why do you think so many republicans with degrees now for your their political beliefs could affect their employment. well i
3:37 am
think 1st and foremost if you're educated you know that it actually could affect your employment i've seen many people not get jobs because they're little cult and have seen other people not going to move forward in their political careers even i think also that if you look at college campuses much happening across this country we increasingly see them moving further and further to the left conservative speakers are shouted out when they come to speak we often see many of the teachers are pushing leftist views and socialist views and we often see that conservatives don't feel like they have free speech even on their college campuses and that's something that they increasingly feel is under threat so i think that it makes sense that people coming out of those establishments apply what they've learned of what they've seen on those college campuses to the real world not consistently being back that we just saw one of the editors of the new york times recently lose their job over publishing a piece by sitting u.s. senator a sitting u.s. senator who i happen to stringently disagree with on many things and whose opinion piece the public eye really didn't care for at all but the fact that a new york times editor was like go over simply publishing an opinion in this way i
3:38 am
think shows you where the culture is right now and people are right to be concerned about their employment let me pose this though is it really karen so cultural that is causing so much for your tick saudi or is it the fact that old outdated cultures of racial and sexual bigotry and intolerance are changing here in the united states and around the world and that many are just too afraid to give up their prejudices prejudices and don't want to face any kind of accountability for their actions and their words because remember with freedom of speech you also have to accept and be accountable to that speech just because it's free it doesn't mean that you're not going to be held you know held accountable to start with you have no. you can't be both i think both things are. simultaneously true i think that you do have a lot of norms change and you do have people who used to be able to air their ignorance of the air proudly and not get pushback. not have repercussions for that and certainly we see some dying screeches from those people who are upset that they're losing their positions of power and that some of the things that they wish
3:39 am
to see in this world are no longer so but we also do think that cancer culture is a real phenomenon and i think it's a dangerous on that's increasingly leading to a culture where we can't talk about the problems that we face if we're not talking about the problems that we face we can't come to happy mediums we can't come to places where we can come together actually effect change and start to fix our problems we're just screaming at each other and we're not actually hearing the other side out so to me it's very unproductive i don't think that you can however a public stand in this kind of climate where people feel like they can't even express their basic views and i don't think they're wrong you know the survey also showed that a majority of people are and i've driven 30 percent in each party or so thought that people should lose their jobs for donating to a presidential candidate in the opposite party that's really extreme what are your thoughts on you know what is a religious is a really terrible culture or is it or is it really just people afraid to be held accountable for their actions so they're kind of hiding behind the fear of carroll county council culture. i'd say it this way i don't want to kind of circle back for one second on the on the young people but if it's together i mean we expect our
3:40 am
young people when we're young we make mistakes right that's what we count on i mean you learn from your stakes hopefully get better one of the it's about college campuses now and i think young adulthood is there's as you point out where we are held accountable for our mistakes we should be but they're they're sort of more blatantly available to them to the world because of social media because of technology i mean this this program right now to all of us really for parts of the area on the t.v. together here is what i would say as things have changed and i hope we're getting to be a more perfect union every day you know our founding was about being a more perfect union we do have to shed some of the bigotry some of the problems but we also have to have some ability to produce each other right we have to have some ability to say you'll say something stupid whether you're 15 or 50 or $75.00 and it shouldn't be the end of you in fact especially. shouldn't be if you said something stupid 10 years ago i hope you've grown more now maybe grown poorly or something but i do think that the technology makes us incredibly our mistakes are
3:41 am
amplified and they're able to be taken advantage of by people who are really unpleasant if you had to confront meaning and we had to fight it in our face face to face discuss it not fight it out it's different than doing it on twitter and in emails and faxes and things that make it sort of distant but i think it's a little bit of both i suppose but it's also a very big challenge because as you guys said free speech in america is so important and self-censorship might be the worst thing to happen worse than attacks directly on speech because it's hard to break us out of that i've got a group of are going to agree i agree that soap such as it should ever be so sub-saharan depending on the situation but you never are you are in the us there is no not at all but you should never sell such or so. yet i think that's true but i think we're not human beings are human beings and whether comes to relationships you know social i mean you know i've written 345 books on trump if i go out into a setting in a meeting nice people that are pleasant i don't read with my trunk books i don't
3:42 am
talk about that initially until i get a lay of the land that's just a fax a lot i tell you a serious story our next door neighbor for 2 years we finally had a meal with them and i found out that one of them was a huge truck supporter i never brought it up i would have brought it up my point here is that there's something about what's going on and let me be clear it's not one party it's not the anti trump or the never truckers it's all of us that have put us in a position where we're we're ugly or towards each other sometimes and that makes us feel like let's not start with that and that's an unfair thing as an american to be noted tocqueville talks so much about our so it's in each and we're big back at that when he came over i think that's something we're really putting in danger of i still remember growing up in the ninety's the big push that we have you know sensor to live crew we had to say i'm sore all these musicians and artists went to me that's the worst thing you can possibly do i want to thank you both hannah cox and of barton for coming on and illuminating this debate for us today thank you so much
3:43 am

3:47 am
the american dream is beautiful if those stopped in tradition and a common sense of identity and purpose its tenets are simple the opportunity for prosperity and success upward mobility for families and all of these things can be achieved simply through hard work. the most vital symbol of this stream is home ownership yet in america 43000000 people are renters homeownership remains a dream that evades many people of color and those in poverty and it's steadily slipping out of the hands of the middle class as well the coburg 19 pandemic put all of america's faulty exceptionalism on front street revealing some of the darkest parts of society that are often swept away from the headlines but no more
3:48 am
with record unemployment and far too many families living paycheck to paycheck each day is a constant struggle and if you're a winner things are about to get a lot harder a moratorium on rent was issued at the height of the pandemic but this past weekend that moratorium expired those conservatives in congress and the trump white house don't seem to care though they've supported some really packages that includes poor parents for homeowners renters could be a victim as soon as the 1st week of august the clock is running out the global it out in conjunction with the national coalition for civil right to counsel estimates that more than $11000000.00 households could be fiction notices within the next 4 months but there are estimates that more than double the shocking number for example the code 19 a big project by is that we're approaching 30000000 u.s. renters at risk or victims. the one reprieve some renters may have is state regulation but sadly many don't know the laws in place to protect them and
3:49 am
landlords will surely take advantage of that jobs are coming back in time to sue whole industries have collapsed legal journalist molly beryl's chair with america's lawyer joins us now to explain what renters and employees should know about these changes and what if any recourse they may have welcome ali. thanks for having me molly winners make up a sizeable portion of american households 43000000 people with their homes why are a priority in the next round of economic relief. you know that's a great question i think it's one that needs to be aimed directly at republicans right now because democrats want to extend that moratorium on evictions they want to extend those supplemental unemployment benefits republicans are suggesting in this latest senate bill that you knock those supplemental unemployment benefits down from $600.00 to $200.00 that on top of everything else that you're seeing with the continued filings for unemployment benefits all these renters like you mentioned before that are hanging on by a thread these rent payments have just been deferred they're still going to be expected to pay them so
3:50 am
a lot of states have stepped up and they've taken initiatives to pass their own laws to provide resources detroit for example they've set aside an entire area where they're allowing people to come in and talk about what's going on they try to connect them with either legal resources or perhaps some funding that might be available to help them keep their bills afloat because if congress doesn't do something if they don't provide more money whether it's renting assistance whether it's extending this moratorium on addictions you are going to see more people homeless things will only get worse in landlords who want to kick them out that's going to be a problem for them too because who's going to run it with so many people that continue to be out of work they're going to have empty buildings which can bring down property values so it's a real problem i think of perception when it comes to coal that you know was a going over the pew research center's. studies that they've done recently on if you identify as republican or democrat how you perceive it is impacting your world and republicans by. foreign markets think the worst is behind us whereas democrats might think that a little bit but they really know that perhaps when we're going just began to see
3:51 am
what could become a rental apocalypse a housing apocalypse so i think it's this perception that everything's going to be ok in this republican march we don't you don't need 600 to live on you need a lot less that's actually encouraging people to stay home and and not work and that's just crap really i think i think they just don't want to spend the money you now you know you never want to they never want to spend the money on the people you know they'll spend it on the corporations are using their donors but never on the going to a mall i want to ask you as a as a legal journalist an analyst what types of rights do runners have who might be facing a virtual during this program a time of record high unemployment rate i'm already hearing some horror stories come out on the coming out of action courts around the country people just going to them biting to stay in their place but not having any understanding of what the law actually says and what rights they may have. right and there are some coalition groups advocacy groups for ranchers rights that are basically saying hey we do need more funding to provide legal counsel to a lot of these people and something that they would actually like to see in the
3:52 am
next release that congress passes we'll see if that makes it in there but there are options available to them and each community and you've got legal with distance or it's basically free or discounted for people in a certain income range who times it's hard for them to access because there's a long line or a long list that's available also you know it's a there's the fair housing act which is available to people that don't fall under this moratorium protection because by the way that moratorium was only for people who were renting in places that had a federally backed mortgage which is only about a 3rd of renters so the majority of renters out there never did have that protection to begin with unless it was applied to state regulations or city regulations so the federal fair housing act which covers things like race discrimination that sort of thing that's one recourse that they could take in case the raids rights are being violated they also need to just do some good old fashioned calling their local state and legislative leaders and say hey what are you doing to help me the renter i pay as much in property taxes if not more in some communities than actually homeowners do i'm ali we're going to put you in
3:53 am
a policy making framework for a 2nd you know that there are housing advocates renner's civil rights groups and other parties that are presenting their plans to congress and state leaders on ways to save the rental community from some of the things you mentioned earlier what do you think the government needs to do to avoid up to 30000000 people facing eviction over the next few months. we simply have to extend this moratorium on evictions and also extend those supplemental unemployment benefits and i know that's less like the republicans go on merit but it's something that needs to be done until we get past this until truly the worst is behind us or things get back to normal or there may never be a perceived normal again but something is normal as we can get back to but if you turn your back on the ever shrinking middle class all you're going to be left with is nobody that can really pay the bills i mean all ships rise with the tide. in right now we're making it so that the wealthiest among us and the only ones with an anchor the rest of us are starting to float away i've talked to some financial advisors who think the only not yet begun to see the floor culture way that we're
3:54 am
going to see coming with the housing in those are for homeownership people with mortgages and that's going to trickle down to the banks renters as well so i think the government right now with this is that they did provide this can't things are getting a lot worse clearly that. a supply of money that will can't be can't last forever but there needs to be some more supplemental assistance in place until we get a hold on this until we get a vaccine that's widely accepted enough for people to feel like they're safe to get out in work or also just to patronize businesses is this is such a trickle down effect when it comes to our economy and like you mentioned earlier in that lead people have to have a place to live in order to support their families and we continue to have a home based and build their lives from mali barros i want to thank you so much for coming on and giving us your incredible intelligence and wit and insight into these issues always a pleasure having you on once again legal eagles more borrowed but your it thank you. while many of us have dreamed about the adventures of space travel magic
3:55 am
