what was then white male ownership and expand later to the concept of second-class citizenry.nded together. it was the fight for liberty and justice and equality. ultimately independence initially united them. look at what happens once we have an end to the war of independence in the founders and the continental congress are on the brink of victory in the war and the peace treaty. you lose this binding force of the war to unite the founders and congress. that was a time of extraordinary peril from 1781 to 1783. they no longer have the war of independence as their unifying force. they have to find others. one of which is they did indeed want to become one of the greatest nations that ever existed on the planet. that was the plan of the founders in 1770's and 1780's. then again, you make reference to my book, i call the key idea the survivalist interpretation of the american revolution. they could not come up with the an alternative. for many reasons the natural outcome after the war of independence had been them breaking into probably three different confederations. new england

there's a potential these tools actually help create citizenry that is more and more aware which inc. aremo real key aspeca healthy democracy and they can be used for second is a state that incredibly busy and back offices and it is a bit of a race between the positive application and negative ones. this is why so fantastic for example, by president biden works to strike that balance. >> we only have a few minutes left but i just want to ask each of the panelists, what steps can governments, obviously national state or local in our country, the private sector companies particularly the tech of his, ai companies and platforms, nonprofits, anyone that you think of as to what they could and should do to try to, number one, ensure the integrity of this upcoming election but then for the longer-term what are the changes we need? >> it goes back to what i we mentioned which is the really close collaboration with ai companies, social media companies, election officials, civil society really working together to address this problem and sharing best practices and knowledge. this is a whole of

education for new segments of society so, there is a potential these tools actually help create citizenry that is more educated and more aware, which is really key. access to a healthy democracy, and it can be used for secretary of state set are incredibly busy and back offices. it is a bit of a race between the positive application for the technologies and the negative ones. this is what's so fantastic, president biden really worked for that one. sec. clinton: we only have a few minutes left but i want to ask each of the panelists, what steps can governments, obviously in national, state, local in our country, ai companies, the platforms, nonprofits, anyone that you think of as to what they could and should do to try to ensure the integrity of this upcoming election, but then for the longer-term, one of the longer term, what other changes we need? >> i think it goes back to what i mentioned, which is a really close collaboration with ai companies, social media companies, election officials, civil societies really working together to address this problem and sharing knowledge. because thi

at the end of the day, this will be up to the citizenry.by way of introduction, before i get your response to all of that, to dl huguely, who has been on this program. he is a smart comic. he works with live audiences all the time. he has that feel, and i want to play some of what he said in his own style, getting biden's back, and speaking to what you referred to as the bullying or pushback. take a listen. >> i watch a man get adjudicated for sexual battery. i watched a man that got convicted, never have i heard this fervor from the media in general about his qualifications to be president. if you are going to have a conversation about how old he is, have a conversation about how old they want to take this country back to. george clooney, he's not the man he was. name me a time when somebody gave up the incumbency and won. if you can vote for a convicted felon, i can vote for a cadaver. >> that is how he put it. your thoughts? >> i love dl. it's the one thing i have always admired about him. he keeps it real. he and i have butted heads on

international arrest warrants for every israeli passport, perhaps, because if you are a part of the israeli citizenry, you are blessing and celebrating and supporting and enthusiastically fomenting genocide and war, and therefore the world will have nothing to do with this genocide in war, as the international court of justice has already uh tribed in its decisions, so they need to be served legal notice, they're not welcome in the world community if they're going to act like maniacs and murderers and and diplomatically that needs to be done by coalitions. iran should immediately convene the un security council through russia, through china and create a coalition for dealing with this that involves turkey, involves syria, involves jordan, involves iraq, involves saudi arabia, and indeed, as your other guess said. involves the uma of the muslim world uh to convene and uh you know address this and uh seek ways to stop this. this is no longer just about the palestinian people in gaza, this is about world war ii, and your guest is right, there is a fanatical christian zionism that infects like fever, man

at large, from the citizenry at large, from various different campaigning groups that basically wanto open up freedom of travel again , open up freedom of travel again, open up freedom of travel again, open up free trade again, freedom of movement again, open borders. >> is that a price you'd be prepared to say? michel barnier said if you want a better deal with the european union, you have to have open borders. is that worth price worth paying? >> he said. he said free movement. see we don't have open borders because we're not in schengen, so all of our borders. you have to show your passport at. >> so free movement of people michel barnier said would be a price that britain would have to pay- price that britain would have to pay. do you think that's a price worth paying? >> oh yeah. i mean i actively want free movement because it did us so much good. look, look , did us so much good. look, look, for example, at what happened when we took away free movement . when we took away free movement. we had the immigration go up, but it was from india and nigeria. and what, what what rights

at the end of the day, this will be up to the citizenry. so, i say that by way of introduction before i get your response to all of that to d.l. hughley, who's been on this program. he's a smart comic. he works with live audiences all the time. like you and other people in politics, he actually has that feel. i want to play some of what he said in his own style -- yeah, his d.l. way. getting biden's back and also speaking to what you just referred to and speaking to that bullying or that pushback. take a listen. >> i watched that man be convicted of 34 felonies. i watched a man get adjudicated for sexual battery. i watched a man who got convicted of fraud. and never have i heard this fervor from the media in general about his qualifications to be president. if you're going to have a conversation about how old he is, have a conversation about how old they want to take this country back to. have these conversations about george clooney. name me a time when somebody gave up the incumbency and won. if you can vote for a convicted felon, i can v

across every arena and sector, tech and beyond to be a part of the pushback and the protection of our citizenry from this threat to our democracy. sec. clinton: i cannot think the four of you enough. maybe out of that panel will become the cooperation. let's get openai, facebook, others together with people like jocelyn and michael who have a lot of the depth and width where the money flows are that she sees, and let's see if there cannot be some cooperative effort between now and this election. if we don't try, we know what will happen. we know what's going to happen. and i think that -- michael, you made a great point, we need more transparency and openness. and that should be de-classifying information as quickly as possible so it gets out in the public, and frankly, governments need to get it out and not ask for permission because it could influence the conversation going forward. but i think this idea of collaboration is better in a democracy to have collaboration and bring people together. let's e what we can do to follow up. thank you all very much. [applause] and the leader of microsoft

every arena and sector, tack and beyond, to be a part of the pushback and the protection of our citizenry from this threat to our democracy. >> i can't thank the fourth you enough, maybe out of this panel will come that kind of cooperation. let's try it out. let's see, let's get open ai, facebook, others together with people like jocelyn and michael level lot of depth and they know where the money flows are that she sees. and let's see if i can't be some cooperative effort between now and this election if we don't try we know it's going to happen. happen. we know what's going tono happe. igo think that michael you madea great point. we need more transparency and openness. that should be declassify information as quickly as possible for gets out in the public and,c, frankly, governmes need to get out and not ask for permission because it can influence the conversation going forward. but ia think this idea collaboration is always better in a democracy to have collaboration, bring people together. let's see what we can do to follow. hes k you all very much. [applause] >> is under high, every

really we see these skills as critical life and citizenry skills. how do you look at your community? and identify the people making a better and how do you support them and tell their stories? what does the telling of stories due to the community's image of itself and its ability to change and work together to solve things? >> you mentioned empathy as something they learned. i so want that to be true. is it? >> yeah. the teachers themselves, and that's why teachers are so important to the program, they see themselves teaching in the fee. -- teaching empathy. when you are learning about someone and you are present in the interview and listening and asking follow-up questions and thinking about the story you are doing. some of these go back to, jim lehrer always talked about i respect the person i'm doing the stories about, i respect the audience, i am going to assume they are as smart as i am. students understand that. they understand also the skills you learn when you do that. when you prepare for an interview and do it and listen and are able to te

so there's a problem with the audience, with the citizenry. you could say with our species. and i actually, i do say that our willingness to support on questioning a liter, especially when he or occasionally she can point to something restricting their security. and she has to shut down public information about it in order to people who are wrong with that pretty well. and when they find out there's not too many of our own. sure tricia getting killed ashley and they have kind of span. they had to go on and definitely have cash that was 20 years ukraine. i think for deval down the russians came in more, didn't get out, which i don't expect them to, to wish than others will be supporting a little more which quickly is costly to the ukrainians. as a guerrilla war, this p mosier dean products that we supplied. again, to show the edge and that's kind of stand that cost, so maybe and a half after and lives. and i would hate to see that imposed on the grant in people one under any circumstances. i venture war like that in vietnam. and i saw what we did to instructions from the way

the military overreach abroad, and corruption of relates across parties and the frustration of the citizenry and the hunger for a strong man using that a strong workman, but a strong man. that's where the patriarchy comes in. we know, but the strong man is tied around a go, and usually that tire the gold picked to really plato's republic, that tyrant himself is so shot through with a narcissism, and of masochism, and an inability to engage in introspection. and what does it do? he leaves the place off the cliff and i used it before as the world would tell him what we got an ecological catastrophe. we've got to come to terms if the nations can't respect each other and work together to deal with ecological catastrophe. what are we really talking about? yeah, but the good news is, there's always a cloud of witnesses. the wave of people of all colors, all genders, august, 5th, joined agents, all religions who were willing to be courageous, compassionate, sacrificial truth, telling justice seeking and joy spreading. gotta keep the joy of the brother, 5 minutes left instead of you. what i want to

so there's a problem with the audience with the citizenry. you could say with our species. and i actually, i do say that our willingness to support on questioning a leader, especially when he or occasionally she can point to something and strengthening their security. and she has to shut down public information about it in order to people who are wrong with have pretty well. and when they find out they're not too many of our own show tricia getting killed ashley and they have kind of span. they had to go on and definitely have tension was 20 years. ukraine. i think to 5050 fall down the russians came in more, didn't get out, which i don't expect them to to wish than others will be supporting a little more which quickly just costly to the ukrainians. as the gorilla war, this p looks at dean pulled up to we supplied against the show the edge and that's kind of stand that cost. so media and a half asked and lives, and i would hate to see that imposed on the current in people one under any circumstances. i venture war like that in vietnam. and i saw what we did to instructions

and, you know, the citizenry as intended as voters or readers and and, you know,nethat i thint enjoyable■s also talk people and characters. anditegos, you know, thinking tu were, you know, doing their job right. and sometime staking pretty sort of drastic decisions in how ther would be continuing to do polling after a certain in the cycle if they thought that one ofhe so so i'm just wondering yu out of all of the different are many in the book that you you mentioned talk about whether therepollstes that are some of your favorites, maybe some anecdotes you'd like to share with us. yeah, that's a great question. than.you know, in doing this boi was really struck by the fact ts before thabo a elections had, you know, had never really been teted. and one of the neat things about it is, you suggesting, phillipos, tthf colorful charac, quite a few colorful characters me of them are worthy of their ownorge gallup, for example, he was he was the sort of a founding father of contemporary or modern opinion research. and he has this reputation of being a real and he. his a reputation of being a cha

category for members of congress, supreme court justices and, you know, the ordinary rabble of the citizenry on basic constitutional rights. they've gotten rid of that and there are people in trump's circle who are openly talking about a post constitution america. this decision moves us much closer to a constitutional monarchy, where the president, they say within his core powers, cannot be questioned and cannot be prosecuted. one of those is the pardon power. the immediate question to mind for a guy like donald trump is can he sell pardons? that is not reviewable now because that is within his core powers. when you look at what happened on january 6 they are saying that when he dealt with the department of justice and tried to stage a coup over there, that is within his power to run the executive branch. even though there is nothing in the 12th amendment that says the president has anything to do with counting presidential votes or the electoral college. just like with the vice president. they say presumptively whatever trump did with mike pence was okay, except mike pence is operating as t

episodes of citizen rage have repeatedly been captured by episodes of government rage against the citizenry. can you expand on that a bit? jonathan: what is interesting about these periods when you go through this is how rage rhetoric has led to state rage where the government responds with crackdowns on free speech, arresting hundreds of thousands of communists, socialists. litter -- literally in a few day period, rounding up thousands of anarchists. that occurred regularly in our history. john adams was the first to do this in the new republic soon after it was born. he enacted the alien sedition act and he tried to our rest and even execute those that were his political opponents. this is the same john adams that praised the boston tea party saying it was majestic. and you have samuel adams who helped lead the attack and assistant and the destruction of the tea. when items became president he became less tolerant of rage rhetoric. you see it in figures like charlotte whitney who was a wonderful character that i start with because it was her case that ultimately led brandeis to refer to t

and so, when we are an involved citizenry and we are interconnected with each other, we are speakingch other about our issues, which is actually the most effective way of changing people's mines and increasing voter turnout, when we are engaged with each other we are not only helping the loneliness epidemic, we are helping democracy and our own personal life as well. >> sammy, emily, the book, those are the most dutiful covers i have ever seen, perfect gift for your friend who is ready to check out, it is called democracy. >> i have two here, michael, i have one for you as well. come back. >> much more ahead. >>> but first, some exciting news for fans of the weekend. you will be able to enjoy the show soon as a brand-new podcast. starting next saturday, every single episode of the weekend will be available to listen to for free wherever you get your podcast. just scan the qr code on your screen. we are also tweeting it out, sharing on instagram and next week you will have full episodes on demand at your fingertips. be right back. be right back. hey folks, chris counahan here for leaf

as far as i can tell, a couple of the values out of step with the american citizenry and the european is they believe anyone should come to the u.s. or eu, despite what the immigration law says, that they have a right to claim asylum. in u.s. law, that's not right. it is a discretionary authority. if you are here, you should not be removed under almost any circumstance. i think these values are out of touch with the american public and we see it of here in the u.s., the worst is sort border crisis we've ever seen, it's why most are talking about it, and similarities of what they have experienced in the eu, going back, they still have these policies. member states, it's funny, particularly hungary and others, they are pushing back. they understand the consequences of it. if they are on the front lines, they want more border security and stricter controls. i think that you see a push pull their, much like what you see here in the states. look at the state of texas and what the governor there is trying to do to secure his border because the federal government in this case has refused to

episodes of citizen rage have repeatedly been countered by episodes of government rage against the citizenry. can you expand on that a bit. yeah. what's interesting about these periods when you go through them is how rage. rhetoric has led to state rage where the government with, with crackdowns on free speech, arresting hundreds and thousands of communist social lists, you know, literally in a few day period up over a thousand anarchists that occurred regularly in our history. john adams was the first to do that in the new republic. soon after it was born, right, he they enacted the alien and acts and he went about trying to arrest and even execute people who were his political opponents. this is the same john adams that praised the boston tea party said. it was magnificent. i think the word he used was majestic. his own you know, you had samuel adams, his kin who helped lead the attack on those poets and the destruction of the tea. so the perspective of rage changes and obviously when adams president, he became less tolerant of rage. but you see it then with figures like whitney, you know,

spirit, american story, the adventurism, entrepreneurism, the great qualities that make us one united citizenry a common story. that is the american story. i anticipate that is the language you will hear. on top of that adding to my surmising is the fact that he personally composed the truth social tweet about unity. that was him. he wrote that and not only that, he has invited nikki haley, he has invited desantis. the campaign is calling speakers per "politico," deciding which speakers bring up the shooting, which did not. they want to have a definite tone of unity. they are being very strategic how they handle this moment. i think thursday will be a big night. charles: speaking of unity, you used the word a couple times. i talked about a survey out earlier, earlier in the show, showing about 80, 90% of americans saying we're divided, most saying severely divided. president trump has done a remarkable job bringing republicans together. a lot of them, at beginning of this campaign, half of these folks were saying no, not trump. feels like they embraced him not for party reasons but they feel so

this definitely is rattling to our citizenry because they were expecting to attend a political rallyad security measures in place which they planned for weeks and weeks and months and months and now unfortunately, the best laid plans... the bad guy gets a vote, we used to say, you can have the best most perfect plan but the bad guy does not follow our plan and the bad guys can sometimes all they need is a small little window of opportunity and they can wreak havoc or in this case unfortunately send rounds down range. measures will be enhanced at the upcoming rnc, even more initial layers of security because there is arguably nothing more important than people being able to exercise their freedom of speech, people being able to exercise theirfreedom of speech, the gathering in order to support their political party, however that may be. their political party, however that may toe-— that may be. retired fbi secial that may be. retired fbi special agent, _ that may be. retired fbi special agent, we - that may be. retired fbi special agent, we thank| that may be. retired fbi i special ag
