[000:00:00;00] ah, wordsworth, which we are all familiar with. are you certain that the world you live in abolish slavery long ago? ah ah hello and welcome to cross off. were all things considered? i am peter lavelle, trump supporters and conservative media spare no energy. dallas democrats are going too far there to lefty. is that really true?

a majority of all voters say they support universal pre k free community college and low drug prices. so is going to far left really about the culture wars. i cross talking democrats, i'm joined by my guess, kevin chavez, in washington. he is an attorney, a democratic strategist, and former president of dc young democrats in new york. we have margaret kimberly. she is executive editor and senior calmness of black agenda report and in phoenix we crossed to jonathan gillum. he's a former navy seal and epi, i special agent, an author of sheep, and no more. the art of awareness, an attack, survival r i chronic cross talk roles and effect. that means you can jump in any time you want. and i would appreciate margaret, let me go to you 1st in new york. we hear all the time. everybody knows my political coloration. so, you know, i'm here all the time. they, the, the democrats have gone overboard, you know, they to left their crazy,

their nutty. i. how do you are progressive? how, how do you see that? i mean, your watch obviously identify more closely to the democratic democratic party than i ever would. but is it a fair characterization? they're gone to left. go ahead, margaret. yeah, well, i'm left of them. so yeah, but they don't go left enough. i wish they were as left wing, as we're told they are. i think their problems currently stem from the fact that they don't deliver what people want. you started up by listening some of the programs that are popular with the public things that are biting campaign. no, unlike rob for giving some student loan debt, things like that are, are, that is what most people are actually across the spectrum. want to see. but we have the same pressures on the political system, assuming bite was ever serious in 1st place out from our,

the establishment from the corporate democrats. they are the ones who run the democratic party, unfortunately, and keep the people from getting what they want. so i think we have to be very careful when we accept the truth of the day and don't really examine what the political parties do. it's very interesting, jonathan. let me go to you in phoenix, i mean on our side of the aisle, what we say is it's an enormous amount of infighting. i mean, it's very difficult. i mean, i've looked at some of the focus groups that have been done in the last couple of weeks about the democratic party and the single most common thing they say is they, they fight each other all the time. that's not a good foreboding about getting a message. i'll go ahead, jonathan. what use? okay, 1st of all, you see and fighting on the democratic party, but there's a democrat party actually has a structure in which they can debate within themselves. on the republican side, let's take a look at what the reality i always say in this nation, that the enemy is the left,

but the problem is the right and then the right is not. they are not one entity that works together. in fact, i would even go as far to say that the republican party is nothing more than a fundraising entity. and true conservatives have no war fighting machine. and the problem here is that the far left this black margaret have been able to push their ideology and their agenda is completely forward with no checks and balances. and no one in this nation of free people deserves complete power. because it does corrupt completely. and what we're seeing here is that things are being done in this nation for ideological reasons, not for what's effective to the nation. for instance, margaret brought up the student loan debt forgiveness. i mean, if people take on a debt, it's up to them to take care of getting rid of that debt that does nothing to change my world. it does nothing to change the inner city, it does nothing to affect the business and commerce and if there's good water in a city,

it does nothing for that. and these are issues that are based in ideology and progressive left us and there is no counter to that. so we are a nation and this isn't just in the united states. this is sweeping across the world because it's ideological. and on the right there is absolutely no consensus as to who we are. there is no war fighting machine to counter this fast aggressive moving the west. and i don't think even the people on the left understand who they are and that's a problem. we're a world in a nation filled with people who are lost and falling ideology and not what's effective. i let me go to kevin in washington here. i mean, just say what kind of reference when margaret was saying, i'm for student debt relief, but i think the university should pay for it. okay? because they create, they created a con and the generations of young people, so they're culpable. they should pay up to okay. these are true, you a multi $1000000000.00 foundations,

they've got the cash they can do it. i just wanted put a close parentheses on that. kevin, i mean right now that the democrats are ruling like they have a mandate in washington. they don't, they don't have a mandate at all. it's razor thin all over the place. but they, they, they act as if they have a mandate. and this has crating an enormous amount of problems because, you know, if it was f d r in 1932, that's one thing, but it's biden in 2001. go ahead, kevin. well, what would constitute a mandate out say the previous administration act as if they had a mandate, but didn't when the popular vote, you know, we know the story. so look, if you've got the power you need to act like you've got a mandate. if you want to try to get things done, so i'm ok with that, i think the big thing is that we have to continue to find ways to get at least some measure of the bills past that we want and know that people on the far left of course were like joe biden to do more and i'm are disappointed, but it's going to be hard to get sort of these pure initiatives past when obviously

you've got a 5050 tie, the senate, you've got jo manson basically acted like a republican. same kirsten cinema, so some of the things we really want to see pass just won't happen, not in the form. we want to see it happen. oh, we also got to worry about trying to go against history. we know we've got the mid terms coming up. we know the party that owns the white house typically loses 20 or more seats. we've got to stop the bleeding there to us. we know the buys approval rating is not very high. so to me, i think you've got a governor's, if you've got a mandate, if you want to get things done, and to me a mandate means you won the most votes, you got sworn in, you've got the c, m. and then from there it's about working to get something done. it is as close as you can get to the initiative that you really want and actually think the administration and only one year has done a pretty good job of that. okay, margaret, well a pretty good job of it. okay. be doing a pretty good job than why are there poll numbers, so historically low, i mean, you know, yeah,

everyone can say it's all about messaging and all that. it doesn't matter. the perception is real here. and the perception is here is that this is an administration, an party that's in crisis. go ahead, margaret. well, i, i, i wish to let go, or is it effective as one of your other? jessica said, but i, i, the problem with biden is that people want him, wanted to see more, and they're not getting it. they get, they've gotten some thing, so i will give them credit for the child tax credit and so forth. those things are very popular and very much needed. but he did not do the things he said he was going to do when he was running. and that is the problem for the democrats. i think they also forgot that a lot of people came out last year expecting a real difference and they want to go back to the same old same old deal liberalism

closing up to the the corporate people who like the republican spun their party. they are both fundraising machines and don't deliver for people so that you have a president who people really wanted to see change things. and he has not, and it's the same old, same old and so called progressive. instead of being a real opposition in their party, they do, you know, progressives and congress could do with jo mansion and kristin simon cinema do. but they don't. there's a lot of phony progressive talk, but none of the action that would make this president more popular and that would help the party. so i'm going to make and stay with you. so a or see really isn't doing the party many favors okay. with her little doesn't do anything. i love about that to my point. okay. i mean it is great for instagram and stuff like that. i think i think she definitely hurts the party and the perception

of the party of being out of touch. jonathan, let me go to you. i mean, what it shouldn't have we expected this from biden. i mean, you know, i'm old enough to remember that he was basically one of the last holding a hold out for segregation. i mean, i mean, i mean this guy we, we know everything about him and you go ahead and the media is saying he's going to do something different. he's doing exactly what i expected. i mean, he's the, he's just a senator, he's not a leader. and he falls back on his corporate friends. $15.00 minimum wage up, you know, yes, bernie will do that. gone and ending so much about a job gone. it's just this corporate his agenda again. i mean, i don't know why people are surprised. go ahead, jonathan. i 100 percent agree with the and you know, listen, listen, margaret. i, you know, how could you put trust in joe biden? i mean, you knew he wasn't going to show up. in short for the campaign trail. you knew he was a liar. if you look at his career, he lives, he's, this is

a guy who is he just politics and does whatever is best to make joe biden look good and in, right, frankly, he never looks good. he just looks like a narcissist to be honest. and i, you know, i've noticed in this conversation that i'm the only one here that saying the word effective, what is effective? what is effective for this nation? i just, i cannot any more work left and right. i only look at what's effective and there is absolutely nothing being done effective. you can mandate all you want, which is what the other guest said. the word want at least a half dozen times. but if what you want is not effective, then it mandating or not mandating or passing laws. it's not going to do any good. this nation is crumbling. the price of gas, i have a harley. it took me $8.00 to put a gallon and a half of gas in the tank. it. we've gotten to a point where food is becoming scarce. products on the shelves are becoming scarce,

and people's anxiety is out of the roof and nothing is being effectively fixed. and we're talking about democrats and republicans. we're not talking about solutions. we're just talking about what people want, and that is quite fre, li, terrifying for me as somebody who's lived a career in service to the nation, always working for what's effective. i see none of that from politics. i've seen none of that from any of the people that orbit washington, dc, and any of the commentary occurred, it's critical, a job. i'm or even the republican party. i never hear what's attract. well, it's all, it's all about jumping on your opponent or whatnot. today, your enemy, unfortunately, that's the nature of our politics. all right, i'm going to jump in here. we're going to go to a short break. and after that short break, we'll continue our discussion discussion on the democrats, stay with our tea. ah, the postal service delivers a $155000000000.00 pieces of mail every year,

approximately 40 percent of the world's mail right now. the us postal service is an a flight of its life to survey that is really bad financial shape. now facing default, the postal service is a cash cow, and there was a way to pull money out of the postal service to put into a federal budget. there was a mandate that you're bringing $100000.00, new revenue every month. the nature of privatization in the us postal service is very much hidden from public view. it's privatization from the inside out. that's a big business in money. it's not about the public and given them a service that they deserve. it's not about quality train workers. it's about with

a financial survival guide. stacy, let's learn about feel out, let's say i'm, if you like it, and you're great time grief on banks of the fight. i enjoy that freight fell out. it will dest slavery. ah ah, welcome back to cross stock where all things are considered. i'm peter labelle, to remind you we're discussing the democrats. ah okay, let's go back to kevin in washington whit with an eye on next year's mid terms and

in keeping in mind what happened in virginia during the governor's race here. does the ghost that hans the democratic party known as donald trump? is it effective any more? because i hear that all the time, i mean and miss m b c still makes a lot of money off of trashing tom. so, i mean, is that it is overplayed card in the democratic in a democratic play book? oh, well, i think it is, you know, he's obviously not on twitter anymore. so we don't get his offensive sort of random tweets that i think i rile up and organize the people who don't like him. he's not really on tv. i think the more donald trump is in front of the camera and the more he's on social media, the better for the democrats. i think that's largely why joe biden, one because donald trump did such a horrible job and was widely disliked of. so with him not being around, i think we're, we're seeing as voters are not going to put of the blame on him right now. he's

been gone for a year. so you can't really tie people to him and expect to win. we've got to talk about what we're going to do, and i think he brought up glen youngin on what he did well was at least find a couple of issues that he could focus on. okay. not very effective for him like lowering the price of groceries or parental choice. those things helped him a lot. okay, margaret, the same quick question to you because invoking trump, it seems like some kind of magic bullet for the democrats. and i'm sorry, voting for donald a voting for joe biden, because he wasn't donald trump. is that a good reason to go to the polls? i mean that, that shows the poverty of our politics right now. okay. it's all about personalities and they want you to think it's all about personalities. don't think about policy now. this is what i find so frustrating. i'm a conservative. i hardly ever talk about trump. i'm interested in ideas and policies that help working people. go ahead margaret. well, as they,

but they do want to resurrect trump and that shows your correct poverty of their politics that people wanted to see. for example, an increase in the minimum wage and they still don't have it. despite having a democratic president in house and senate, we still don't have the things that they said they were going to get for us. and that's why they go back to trump. it's because they have failed. and it's because they're a corporate party and they do their the putative left wing party, but they are all at all really left. so, but a lot of things that we are told are left waiting like add national health care, which people have everywhere else in the world we're told is to left wing despite the fact that god, that is something that most people would like to see. and that of course, could be done here as it's done right next door in canada. so when they failed to do the things that people expected them to see,

they go back to resurrecting the boogeyman of donald trump. and every time they talk about trunk, it is to me an indication of their failure. and the fact that our 2 party system has failed the american people. and the do, i believe, is just a sham and creates a sham democracy. frankly. john and jonathan will it, when we're looking at the, the, the disarray of this administration in the, in fighting in the democratic party. it's very real and fighting. um, it seems to me that the, the g o, p is deluding itself about its possibilities for a major win. i mean, i think, you know, a kevin's already pointed out, i mean, historically speaking, the power that they, the party in power in the white house loses mid terms. okay. it's good. all going to be about degree right now. but i do worry, is that you know, going after joe biden, in his deficiencies, which are real, how much people dislike kamala harris, which is real here. but you know what? i don't see a real agenda coming up and it says,

really bother some to me. and you know, i guess it was a week and a half ago, kevin mccarthy spent 2 hours on the floor. well, he's a day late in a buck short. okay. i mean, i don't see that all that is, is reacting and that's what the deal pay does. react react, i don't see a positive agenda out there. and it seems to me even if they get a majority in both houses, they do usually what they do. nothing. go ahead. jonathan, you're absolutely right. and you know, one thing that margaret said that really stands out because i hear this from people on the left and the right is this phrase our 2 party system. this nation was never created for a 2 party system. the democrat and republican parties are not government entities. they are private organizations, and people need to realize that they are not a part of it's no different than it flows and home depot decided to have political parties and they became very successful over hundreds of years. that's all they are, but they own every seat of power in the united states on the local, state,

and federal level. and they've convinced all the people in this nation that they must follow those 2 ideologies. or those 2 guidelines are those to representative parties to fix everything and nothing, and nothing at all is being fixed. and when we look at how you are pointing that out about the republican party there, the fact is, i can't say this enough. there is no entity called the republican party, that is a war fighting machine. there is nothing. it is simply a fundraising entity. they own a line on a ticket. and when you vote for somebody to go to washington, d. c, for your conservative values, there is no war fighting machine. so what, what looks like the conservators or the republican party is just sitting back and not really pushing forward. and maybe they're just going to rely on biden's bad record. the fact is, there's no war fighting machine that really is coordinated in that fashion. so they do what's easiest. and i think what we see overall, both these political parties is that we really do. we could cross out why,

when we look at what's effective, you know, we don't want people to be hungry. we don't want people in this, in this nation to be sick. but nothing ever gets really fixed in an effective manner. to do that, you can't pass a bill or pass a law or just say we're going to give somebody something free and expect that to fix the problem. we never look at the root problems. we never reach out and try to truly fix it. look, can't given, let me go to you. i mean, do you think that, you know, i mean, looking at the poll numbers here, do you think there's a lot of buyer's remorse in electing joe biden and cml harris? because, according to news reports, you already have his cabinet already thinking about 2024. while there's still a sitting president right there, that's not something that happens very often here. i mean, they, they got tromp out. did they realize that this is what they were going to get with biden? go ahead, kevin. were i think his biggest problem is that the inflation has surged due to the pandemic continuing,

i think that we all thought we would probably be beyond the coven, 19, or least, the worst of it. and things haven't proved. but now with the, you know, we have the delta vary and now we've got our micron. so i think as long as cove it lingers, people just continue to be tired of sort of the, the mandates are the limitations on life. and they blame it on joe biden. he has had pretty significant achievements legislatively, but that he's not going to get the credit for them because people are upset that you know, the price of milk has gone up so high. the good thing is that we think it should come back down. prices should go back to normal, hopefully next year. but we don't know. so i think that it is not so much that people have buyer's remorse. is that people react to what's going on right now. and they have short memories, and i think that they do not, you know, factor in history when, when they're answering those questions, do you approve or disapprove that thinking about today or yesterday? and if you're thinking about today, you know, you're thinking about inflation,

you're thinking about constantly hearing about corona virus and the news. so i think that was dragging down his numbers. ok, well morgan, i would argue it's really the lack of leadership in clarity and, and being frank with the, the american people talking about legislative victories. i mean, they were so carved out margaret by the end of the day. it was just a corporate giveaways just says it always is. they went week after week, i got to cut this. i cut this out, cut this out. oh yeah, we don't worry about taxing the rich here. i mean it, it for me which is breathtaking. okay. you start out big and they went skinny, but they went fat for their friends. not for the people, margaret. absolutely. i think what they ended up with was what they intended all along. so the talk of the 6 trillion dollar bill and it was lower and lower and lower. now it's one trillion that's a lot of money. i'm not saying it is it? but i think this is what they intended all along. and they tell people, well, you know, this is what we could get or, oh, no,

jo mansion who's just the bad cop in a bad place as far as i'm concerned. but this was their intent all along. it always is. uh, whoever is in office, whichever party allegedly has control, it's the one percent who have control. and in the final analysis we get what again another corporate give away. and that's why i believe terry mcauliffe lost in virginia. he's just another corporate democrat. and at the end of the day, he was defeated because his opponent came up with some other issues that were trending at the time. but these corporate democrats cannot win a with absent a republican boogie person to point to. well, margaret young ken is a corporate republican. okay. and they both worked at the same venture capital firm . okay. carlyle. okay. i mean, it's really amazing. this is your coke and pepsi joyce here. go right ahead. oh,

but the media just had such so much fun with it over nothing. no, very little difference whatsoever. okay. except for how close he stands to donald trump. okay. this sounds like criminology. okay. jonathan, you and i have the same opinion of the republican party, and i agree with you. it's not really much of a party at all to fund me. it's a fundraising operation. what, what would you tell the if you had the power and you were a consultant to them, what would you suggest them to do? because i'm tired of this carousel going around and around voting this party and this party out and we get the same thing over and over and over again. nothing changes. go ahead, jonathan. well, i say that we used the democrats playbook. listen to one thing. i'll give the democrat party there are subversive left his group. i, you know, i have respect for margaret respect for kevin, but nothing that they're saying, as i always keep saying solves anything. and really just talks about things that are whimsical, dreams,

that things are going to change because they do this bill or that bill. but what the democrat party is is an effective war fighting machine. i. if i was advising a republican party, i would say listen, you have to start cultivating relationships with big money donors who believe and conservative eyes and see what's happening in this country. i would start getting on the ground level, have courses for free for people about the constitution. start digging in routes and the department of education so that you can stop the indoctrination of wise or of the children. every one should be concerned about that in the republican party should just simply take that play book that the democrats party, democrat, party hit, has created and worked over really almost a 100 years. and it's gotten better and better to the point where they have a whole population of the part of the population. a nation focused on doing whatever they're told, the republican party needs to come together create

a war fighting. okay. all righty and stand again. i'm afraid we can't hold our breath on that one. i had all the time we had my money thinks that my guest in mind should be in new york and in phoenix. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at r t c. you next time, remember crosstalk rules. ah ah. you went to that was fun. fuel isn't your post. yeah. that it would stop you from having real friends and finding a girlfriend. but what they failed mentioned is that you could make thousands of dollars over a weekend by simply playing video games with a dentist. they should be using a couple of them. but as always wanted the solution that was showing up this is a little under copy as well. if i was originally, if i was putting it okay much, what reduce up is no phone. of course to make video games a high paying job. you have to be gifted and quick witted,

and john to open up with like the most amazing fitness to live near bottom in this sounds of wood webpage bentley up amongst the booth but even started yet. glove, boy, when you mouse told me my video it out or you me, i was at kneels, feel like a guy of the order, but the outside circle it will still be sucked it these it's odd to do i also use oh, is your media a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation, whole community. are you going the right way or are you being led somewhere? direct. what is true?

wharf is great. in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths. or remain in the shallows alone, drugs started as a way to combat a gray problem. what's the warranty? it's part of the attitude of the nation, not just of north dakota. and it got to be something that you could get elected this time. the fight against drugs took a to try and shake. he told us that andrew was a confidential informant. this is way too dangerous for him to be doing. clearly they put him in harm's way, a rural college student does interest get shot in the head and found in the river

like that. something else had to be happening with the a you can sit is mandatory vaccinations now is that you covered straight opposed to paid on the continent much earlier than thought we speak to to have her ologist from the russian developer of the sputnik vague job on what to expect from this new form of the virus. in the cases we're seeing now everyone has a mild form. on the other hand, there's no doubt on how it can affect elderly people. will have to wait another month or so to be sure that the dia, god, god has that they are somewhat effective. yes they, they do irritate the eyes of the front, but me little bit. also, we report from the scene of protests him so done with tens of thousands of marched
