in the heart of the great depression at that first inaugural, franklin delano roosevelt looked at americans were suffering, and to reassure them and bring us together said, all we have to fear is fear itself. and it is a quote that echoes throughout history because it went to who we are. and what he was talking about was rallying together. when communism was on the spread, when the russian empire was spreading, ronald reagan stood there and said, mr. gorbachev, tear down that wall. and as we -- as donald trump and kamala harris stood on that stage articulating a vision and showing what kind of leadership have -- fdr made his quote, reagan made his quote. donald trump yelled, they're eating dogs, they're eating cats.

quickly, it was one of those seminal moments in history where george c marshall in 1938, franklin delano roosevelt was determined to cut the defense budget. they were trying to come out of the recession. he had all of his social programs that he was pushing out of the country and trying to pay for. fdr had a hot temper. he was known to fire generals and people on the spot. and george c marshall chief of staff of the army stood up to fdr. he didn't think it was going to go so well. but actually fdr invited him back the next day and they had a long talk. not only did he not cut the defense budget, he put in an increase for it. very controversial at the time. but i think set the stage for us to be successful in world war ii. those truth to power moments, you've got to be ready for them and they come up and you have to have the moral fortitude and frankly lack of concern for how it goes for your career to speak truth to power. >> pentagon briefings and pest -- conference, succession generals would say the next six months are critical. we can get them where we need them to be. every couple of months th

and i also cannot help but think about franklin delano roosevelt's freedom for freedoms which we're freedom of speech for religion, freedom from want, freedom from, from starvation, and then freedom from fear. >> so if you live in these areas and you realize the gulf of mexico is warmer than it's ever been in recorded history. >> you know, you can expect more hurricane dream weather events. and so what are you going to do? >> you have fear going to do and so please serious, serious time. and as we always say, this shouldn't be political shouldn't be partisan rather, but it is political. where do we direct our intellect and treasure omar? >> yeah, and look it's become such a major issue that i think has has found itself not just in experiences online, but it's also resulted in some real threats. to some of the people trying to spread some of the science around, around this. i mean, earlier on the show, i was talking to a local tv meteorologists who says she got death threats for debunking conspiracy theories about hurricanes. but instead of ignoring them, she continues to be active on tiktok

but then the federal government gets involved with president roosevelt, franklin delano roosevelt, and you mentioned how these federal allocation of dollars also tend to follow this pattern. can you talk about that a little bit? >> yeah. we often think about the expansion of the new deal and the expansion of federal power, and as well, the vast expansion of some federal spending that is trickling down into state and local governments. but in many respects, many of those programs are actually being administered by local officials and they are the ones who were sort of, having great discretionary power over how this public dollars are spent. this is really the time in the history of the south where you are seeing real expansion of paved streets, sidewalks, local infrastructure. it's all at the benefit of new deal programs. and again, it's one that it's not like the federal government is directly stepping into these communities. it's often were using local governments, you know, jim crow local governments as intermediaries for the allocation of these public dollars. the results are what t

into this history, the local level, but then the government gets involved with roosevelt, franklin delano roosevelt. and you mentioned. these federal allocation of dollars also tend to this pattern. can you talk that a little bit? yeah. i mean, we often about the expansion of the new deal, the expansion of the federal and as well, the vast expansion of federal spending that is got trickling down into state and local governments. but in many respects, i mean, many of those programs are actually being administered by local officials, and they're the ones who are actually sort of in having great discretionary power over how those public dollars are spent. and so, you know, there's a there's this is really the time and the history of the south where you're seeing a real expansion of of, you know, you know, paved sidewalks. you know local infrastructure is all you know at the benefit of of new deal programs. and again but it's one that it's not like the federal government is directly stepping into these communities oftentimes work using local governments you know jim crow local governments is an interme

domestic issues, president biden has probably been the most progressive president since franklin delano roosevelt. and i think it's not a lot of good work and a lot of areas which i think he's not getting the credit that the deserves. and kamala harris, of course, has been at his side throughout that whole process and she deserves the credit. i mean, i think it's low great secret. the areas that i and a lot of folks do what disagreements with in the biden administration is the war in gaza? i happen to think that both netanyahu and sinwar, who is the leader of hamas or war criminals in war started this war with a terrible terrorist attack against israel. and now, netanyahu has gone to war, all out, war against the palestinian people, killing 42,000, two-thirds of whom are women, children, and the elderly, injuring 100,000 now stopping humanitarian aid. so that people are starving there. i think that is not where american money should be going and i don't go to the nichols should go to nutt you so long as he continues those policies, that's that's my view, but i would have hoped that kamala might h
