-- portraying as aontation with fascism new deal for the world. was part of charter that effort on the domestic scene. not all americans swallowed the new deal line hold but most americans -- most did identify powerfully and intimately with roosevelt. as part of that process of identification, they began to adopt a rhetoric of rights and freedom and adapted it to their own lives. learned that soon wereost effective appeal those that personalized government messages while downplaying the overly ideological statements. the most common strategy used to accomplish this was a rhetorical approach -- turned the homefront analogy. this was an evaluation -- a valuation of every conceivable asked that to of domestic life. most often by tracing the battlefront consequences of ordinary decisions at home. this rhetorical universe -- defense workers were promoted to soldiers of production. home gardens became victory gardens. and young women going to socialize with soldiers were called victory girls. roosevelt understood the need to personalize the war and he d

in how democracy was going to defend itself against what seemed to be an existential threat into fascism. she worked very strategically to promote the defense as a wartime new deal so as it was petering out, she and others felt she launched a campaign. democracy has to be strengthened at home setup in 1941 by the executive order but roosevelt was instrumental in the idea of the volunteer participation that every american had a role to play and they should make life more living in the democracy. >> prior to world war ii the scarcity of the full-time with their peace versus war on a full-time basis? >> most progressives became pacifists and followed the post-world war i lot. there was a sense of dean mobilization and of course the neutrality act and the country was in deep isolationist but by the mid-1930s, the civil war in spain, the bombing and attacks on ethiopia by italy, the demise of hitler and the fascist demand. they began to creep into the american political consciousness. we are seeing at this point radio dramas. famously the war of th word of d and there were a series of fees ar

germany has an understandable aversion to surveillance, partly because of the wartime past with fascismmany. they don't like cctv cameras. there are very strong privacy laws there. hence german newspapers, until the last minute, we re newspapers, until the last minute, were not able to show the full picture that you are seeing here of anis amri. his eyes were blacked out. and when they arrest somebody, the surname is usuallyjust an initial. there are other issues as well which people are talking about today, which is that of schengen, the passport free, borderless europe, a wonderful idea in theory. u nfortu nately, europe, a wonderful idea in theory. unfortunately, it is being exploited by terrorists and people trying to bring weapons in. we have already seen this with the bataclan attacks. they were planned from brussels and executed in paris last november. so the fact that this man was able to cross easily, three countries, from germany to france from france to the italian border and then to turin and then to milan. but on the other hand,it then to milan. but on the other hand, it wa

what are they going to do next, the first step towards fascism? they wear uniforms. you can't tell what else is going to happen. this is the beginning of the militarization of america. they will probably have girls sometimes wearing uniforms. the girl scout manual of 1913 has girls in uniform and is entitled what every young girl should do for her couldn't fri. it is totally worth buying. you c you can get it in savannah at the home of the founder of the girl scouts. dr. tom price, not only did he replace me but he is a doctor, his wife is a doctor. as an example of how bitter and unending the media will be "the new york times" manages to write an entire article about mr. price. i want you to think about this. as you know, dr. joe biden is always dr. joe biden, because he is dr. joe biden. but dr. tom, who is a medical doctor, by the way, isn't dr. tom price in "the new york times," because that would imply that trump had picked somebody for health care who actually knew something about health care. now, given the left's constant track record of trying to find people

of s often was 20 years italian fascism since 1922. so the italian case is interesting if you compare with austria and germany in particular. in italy there was no italian nurembourg. and there was a lot of revenge, as i mentioned in my talk. with 12,000 people killed in the immediate post war years in cold blood. i think it's -- my opinion, it's a good thing, it was a very good thing to do by the americans, and should be given credit, the people in charge, to implement the principle of the rule of law. the principle of the rule of law. because that was the right way to start a new society arks better society, and make a clear distinction line, draw a line between the old regime and the new beginnings of a democracy. italy didn't have that in that way. in my opinion, i think the shortcomings of italian democracy later on have also, looking back of course, have also to do with that. >> next question in the center. >> ms. >> list jacobson, obviously the world was well aware of the advanced state of the german rocket program, but it sound

obama: fascism threatens to overrun the entire world, and we had to wage total war in response.munism threatened not only to overturn a world order, but threatened nuclear holocaust, so armaments andd alliances to contain it. today terrorists can kill , innocent people, but they don't pose an existential threat to our nation, and we must not make a mistake of elevating them as if they do. that does their job for them. it makes them more important and helps them with recruitment. a second and related point is that we cannot follow the path of previous great powers who sometimes defeated themselves through overreach. by protecting our homeland while drawing down the number of troops serving in harm's way overseas, we helped save resources, but more importantly we saved lives. i can tell you during the course of my years that i have never shied away from sending men and women into danger where necessary. it's always the hardest decision i make, but it's one that i have made where the security of the american people is at stake. and i have seen the cost. i have held the hands of our

they are thugs and they are murderers and they should be treated that way. [ applause ] now, fascism threatened to overwhelm the entire world, and we had to wage total war in response. communism threatened not only to overturn a world order but threatened nuclear holocaust. so we had to build armaments and alliances to contain it. today's terrorists can kill innocent people, but they don't pose an existential threat to our nation, and we must not make the mistake of elevating them as if they do. that does their job for them. it makes them more important and helps them with recruitment. a second and related point is that we cannot follow the path of previous great powers who sometimes defeated themselves through overreach. by protecting our homeland while drawing down the number of troops serving in harm's way overseas, we helped save resources, but more importantly, we saved lives. i can tell you, during the course of my eight years, that i have never shied away from sending danger where necessary. it's always the hardest decision i make, but it's one that i've made where the securit

. >> we have accepted the fascism of fashion and the fashion of facism. >> other artists say negative landmarked event marred 2016 and their performances were about grief and hope. >> the question of the responsibility that an artist has to actually voice social concerns is significant. i am not completely sure what an artist should do but if the artist has an ability to articulate something. emotional and intellectual and passionate, they must do it. >> they all also fear the future of bay area art. >> i don't know anyone that has space in the warehouse that is not being inspected. last week and this week, some people have been evicted already. there is a few people hose evictions were on the docket that the landlords are trying to speed up. this is mourning not only people that have died but spaces and possibilities that are in great danger. >> the bay area says survivors of the fire performed but it reached out to several other artists that reached out with the ghost ship that say it was too soon for them to perform their music. >>> the ice cream shop, cream, is donating 25% of its

fascism is on the march. there's a prospect for a war in the something of the foreseeable future. who did mcarthur keep in the army by deciding to keep the leaders together. keep the personnel. who stayed in the army. george marshall, mark clark, george path patton, walter kruger, robert, collins, and all of the generals -- virtually all of the generals that will fight and win the second world war. he also saved research and development dollars. what is developed at this time? the rifle, the thompson sub machine gun. the b-17 bomber. the sherman tank, p-40, p-47 thunder bolt. all started their development in some way, shape, or form while mcarthur was chief in staff. these are the weapons that will be used -- the famous weapons that will be used by the american army to win the second world war. the last impact of alasmcarthur find jobs for these people that he was maintaining as their programs were cut was mcarthur assumed control of the civilian conservation group. george marshall who was chief of staff for the army during world war ii said later this was his experience with mass

probably agree, tucker, that the media would be shrieking about brown shirts on the march and rise of fascism the other sorts of histrionic what happened. this has now been what we have just witnessed for six weeks straight. it's unprecedented lobbying campaign, sort of a tossing centuries of precedent into the trash can. and, yet, the response from the media has been muted and some cases egged it on. >> well, sure. some of them literally wept when hillary lost. this weird mccarthy stuff. weird. thanks for coming on. i appreciate that. >> thank you. >> bill clinton is placing some blame for his wife's loss. try to guess who he says is responsible? here's a hint. it's not the hillary campaign. it might be you. stay tuned for that. well former president bill clinton was an elector and he cast his vote today for his wife hillary clinton. she, of course, did not win. that has not stopped him from pointing the finger and blaming just about everybody other than hillary herself. here now is david attorney and democratic strategist who worked for clinton in the white house. >> good to be on, tucker.
