again cowritten with rose freedman.d arlington virginia please go ahead with your question or comment. >> caller: hi thank you very much for taking my call, during the show. human speaking about government and inefficiency that can exist to the point of things got better but what about business or corporate inefficiency? will be freeman's perspective on that? are the american film industry. there is a philosophy of corporations too big to fail we have to build about. stuart carlos thank you for the question. >> guest: really good question. public policy is imperfect. but in general if the business is failing at a subnational level i would go out of business or redirect its activity. it rewards efficiency that is the virtue of it. there may not be that tendency to go out of business from freedman's perspective the private sector was more efficient than the private sector. that mean the private sector is always efficient? nope it is that the public sector is it efficient? no. you should bright try to privatize government

we are in the middle of a wonderful conversation in anticipation of jewish book month with howard freedman the director of the jewish community library and michael lucas was written a book called the oracle of istanbul. michael we were talking about your book and how you were inspired and a postcard you saw in istanbul . in this day and age, it is a big question but why do people write and why do people read and in the sense of why do people read and they read differently with an audiobook. what are your thoughts about all of that. >> i am aware as a writer we have competition. if you're reading on your ipad you can click and look at your email or play a little game of angry birds or something like that. but i think writing has this unique and special attribute which is , you are connected into the readers mind. your voice, your words are going directly into their mind and that is an amazing technology. when you take about why people write i think about he and forrester the british author and he had a maxim for the importance of literature which is only connect. when i sit down and feel li

join ing me now is the three-tie columnist and author of seven best-selling books thomas freedman. thank you for coming back. i read the most recent column. couldn't help but conclude that this is all going according to plan for hamas. am i right? please explain. >> from the very beginning, ooirp's goal has been to as long as they are immeshed in the west bank, it will be a moral disaster and a problem. obviously, israel faced a huge military dilemma after the attacks, the barberism of the attack. but from the very beginning, i argued that israel should ask what is worse and do the opposite. but unfortunately, it went in. now it's in extremely deeply. it's committed to ultimately taking over all of gaza. and what i was arguing the last piece, if you're going to control, if 7 million jews are going to control 3 million pal stint yans in the west bank and 2.1 million palestinians in gaza without any political horizon, we're talking about a political who whohorizon, you'll never ge the international support you need to maintain that. and you'll be isolated and economically overstresse

permission to use his story in the freedman's book does not survive. but his reply to her suggests a question she apparently raised. child, it seems, had read somewhere that douglass had reconciled with his former enslaver thomas auld. was this true? no. douglass replied it was not. the story of an interview between us is newspaper story for which i in no way responsible, he wrote. any such meeting could fail to be awkward. he continued, but then douglass seemed to reconsider. still, i should be glad to see him, especially if i could do so simply by meeting him halfway wrote. then again, not. i do not. he continued. fancy making a journey to see a man who gave me so many reasons for wishing the greatest distance us. yet again, he reconsidered. i learned from my sister. still lives near me, master thomas, that he says he would be glad to see me. he wrote. then came an extraordinary promise he has, but to say so me by letter and his age and forgetting his past, i will make him a visit. what is going on? this letter? what had child written to prompt such

well that's bringing benjamin freedman. he is the policy director of defense priorities. he joins us now from washington, dc, benjamin flooding, face tunnels and gaza, as i understand it isn't a new idea, but it also sounds incredibly logistically complex. presumably if it was relatively easy to do with these really all me would've done it. we're ready. yes, i mean it's complicated both by the logistics of pumping water from the ocean into the tunnels, which now obviously are some distance from the shore in some cases. but also of course by the hostages. and i think there's a kind of cat and mouse game with the hostages and the tunnel where mos doesn't want to lose the hostages. but they want to use the hosp, the prospect of the hostages being in the tunnels to keep those are all from flooding them. or blowing them up. well, i'm curious. what about the captives at the moment? israel's obviously said that they believe that hamas is keeping captives inside these tunnels. and we've also heard from israel that they have already been debt samantha saying that's because of the

[laughter] we are gathering of course at the end of a summer that was really defined by the climate crisis. this year's already set a record for climate disasters costing over billion dollars from the devastating fires in maui to hurricane daily and hurricane lee on the east coast to the rare tropical storm hilary in california to catastrophic flooding and vermont to 31 straight days in phoenix that were over 110 degrees fahrenheit. and that is just in the united sta

i'm joined by jonathan freedman, and the head of the america's program at chatham house and a major think tank here to talk about the turbulent 12 months that is past and the year ahead. so welcome to both of you. could i just try this word on you. it comes from the economist, i have no idea how to pronounce it but i am going to try. of a consternation of crises. am i correct? >> i think that is pretty good. >> i will take your gentle correction about it being a british thing. how bad has it been this year? >> well, it feels like it's been one of the perfect storm years where everything is just piled on, one after another. the very fact that for example the year ended in the closing months, dominated bay middle east war, on a scale really in terms of the israel palestine conflict that hadn't been seen as the founding of the state, the big argument since the war of intense that birthed israel in 1948 and that was the last segment of the year, that is when people were beginning to think maybe we can make it to the finishing post, so that was, it felt like a combination of what has been a pa

ken freedman, this is a fascinating, at least psychological study for a lot of reasons. thank you so much. >> you're welcome so much. thanks for having me. >> and of course i'm not going forget the fact that while we're talking about rudy giuliani, the focus should be on the people that he was doing that to, and what they're going through tonight and yesterday and every day since it happened apparently. >>> also, republicans, they are on the verge of taking the next steps in their impeachment inquiry into president biden, but here is a little thing that maybe no one's really talking to you about, yet could it backfire on them? that's what everyone is talk about tomorrow, i bet you. we'll cover it right here next. >>> all right. so time is of the essence, and voters are already making up their mind. look, the first caucuses are just weeks away. ron desantis is finally apparently seizing the opportunity to take the shots at donald trump that many wondered why he hadn't taken before, because he was, of course, trying to become the front-runner. well, here he was at cnn's to

live now to rosa freedman who is a professor of law conflict and global development at the universityrt showing the violence and the threat of violence in gaza, the cease—fire is necessary and give us a sense of what may be going on behind the scenes at the un security council with a hold that might be? the un security council has 500 members who hold a veto over any security council resolution or action. the united states vetoed in the uk abstained earlier this month coming from suspicion of hostilities and test reported earlier, there were two real key sticking points of this resolution in the first was in language, the language of the stations which others might say would benefit hamas. the linkage being turned into a suspension and much more with your mentor the hope they will also allow the release of hostages and really what's causing the delay to move the boat again tomorrow and is meant to be on monday. it's this monitoring mechanism that they could monitor the aid going into gaza as a be similar to what happened in syria a number of years ago when it came into syria but israe

rosa freedman is a professor of law conflict and global development at the university of reading, andgong on behind closed doors at the un security council.. resolution or action, the united states vetoed in the uk abstained on the resolution earlier this month the confiscation of hostilities and there were two real key sticking points for this solution. the first is the language of the cease—fire and cessation of this should only benefit hamas, and the suspension much more in line with the humanitarian court in suspension will allow release of hostages. another sticking point that is because the delay to the vote tomorrow it was meant to be on monday is around this monitoring mechanism that the united nations would monitor the aid going into gaza and this would be similar to what happened in a number of years ago and israel has said it is not trust the united nations, particularly after so many of hamas rockets have been launched on schools and documented evidence of you in complicity with hamas terrorist inside the gaza strip and they do not trust monitoring would prefer independent

along the space 5 to really small captives, but acknowledges that the will will continue. benjamin freedman is the policy diary to the defense priorities, which is a washington think tank. he says if this these guys extend it, it wouldn't be for long. and i think the railways are here to resume the war sooner or later in the south and feel kind of compelled by their politics to do so . so i, uh, sadly, i think the ward is going to start again in a couple of days. i don't know that he is real, has a clear and goal in mind. i think different is really the leaders probably have different and goals and they have i resolved those competing alternatives yet. so i think that their goal of destroying hamas is possible, but it's hard to see what comes in it's wake, what possible outcome there is for governance and dies uh other than some kind of a boss of or boss 2 point. oh, unless it's d as rarely sitting on it as a police state, which i think they want to avoid at least ending in the long term usa. uh, for example, uh the other day. uh, tony blinking said, when the israel presumes of war in the s

one of the reasons that you hear liberal democrats even on this network from time to time, thomas freedmanrk times, the biden administration and the leaks to the media the usual mouth pieces trash benjamin netanyahu they hate him the way that they thought that they hate donald trump. because benjamin netanyahu has not gone and been the need to obama or biden, he resisted as much as he possibly can, they want another government in israel led by the left which will bend over backwards which will surrender 93 or 94% of the country to the palestinian terrorist like barack wanted to do in the pd and so forth and so on. those are the israelis that are supported by the new york times a democrat party chuck schumer, biden, blinking and the rest of the retro bates. one day i'm going to do program in the not-too-distant future. but for now i will see you tomorrow night, sunday on life liberty and love in.

this war is going on, while this war is going on the two state solution that's pushed by thomas freedmanork times" and other israel hater, that's pushed by the democrat party that's pushed by obama, pushed by everybody. it was a two state collusion it's called gaza and look what happens. but as i've said before the two state solution for israel is the final solution, why? because you need to understand what the islamists want. it is a caliphate it is not a two state solution. iran has a state are they satisfied with their state? they've all taken over lebanon they've taken over yemen they are in the middle of taking over iraq for they' were they taken e gaza strip. they want to caliphate and not just in the middle east. they are building nuclear weapons the effort to build nuclear weapons that is not for their neighborhood that is for our neighborhood. and what are we doing to stop them right now? what is the plan? what is the strategy to stop iran from getting a nuclear weapon right now? on biden and blinken's watch there is nothing to stop that which is why they are racing to the finis

here with me now is elie honig and chief assistant district attorney karen freedman agnifilo. do you think they'll take this up? >> i do think they will, anderson. this is what we call direct review, meaning jack smith wants skip the court of appeals and go to the supreme court. >> because it's going to go to the supreme court anyway? >> right. why take the many months it would take for the court of appeals to weigh in. we know it's headed for the supreme court. also, if you look back at recent history, this tactic of direct review was almost never done for a long time. however, the court supreme court has done it. i have to credit our supreme court expert -- 19 times since 2019. for example, joe biden's student loan program. they granted this expedited relief. and many others we have not heard of. this case is more important than any of those, and this case has more time pressure than any of those. so, i do think they will take it on this direct review. >> karen, if the court does agree to hear the case, what does the timeline look like, and when do we expect a ruling? >> hop

. >> i want to bring in karen freedman, our legal analyst. giuliani said he had no connection to the avalanche of threats that shaye moss and ruby freeman actually faced. let's remember some of the racist and hateful lies he told. >> how can he say there's no fraud. look at that woman. look at them scurrying around with the ballots. nobody in the room. hiding around. they look like they're passing out dope, not just ballots. it's clear they're stealing votes. >> given the volume of evidence against giuliani right now, how do you think he will attempt his appeal to go forward? he says he wants his lawyers to appeal this case. >> well, let's remember in order to appeal this case, because it's civil, he will have to put a substantial sum of money into a bond. and so which means he has to put that money in the bank and that will have to be held in order for him to even get to an appeal. and usually it's the amount of the verdict, sometimes more. i don't know how he's going to do that if at the same time he thinks he's broke. and i also don't thin

. >> affordability is a big factor, but bess freedman says to do it. >>> whiskey drinkers are breathing a sigh of relief as some top shelf spirits are looking to stay steady at least for now. emily is with us now. not a new story. we've seen this tariff issue come up over and over again. >> it's been going back and forth, frank. we do have some good news at least for european was ski lovers as we're heading into the new years. they're raising their glass to the eu after the countries announced they would suspend the rates of tariff. if not they would have been slapped with a 50% tariff. the reason we've heard so much back and forth. these tariffs are a large result over steel and aluminum tearists put in place under the trump administration. they've been negotiating for the last two years to figure out a way forward. the goal is to, quote, forge a forward-looking arrangement that will allow us to join forces economically, to incentivize fair and clean production, and trade in the steel and aluminum sectors. andy barr told me the eu has become a critica

i want to get perspective from karen freedman agnifilo, covered rudy giuliani since his days as mayor, kaitlan collins, who anchors "the source" at the top of the hour, and van jones. karen, first of all, just the magnitude of these damages, and do you think these two women who, i mean, have just clearly been defamed and had their lives completely upended, do you think they will get money? >> i think they will get money. i think that rudy giuliani will not be able to hide all of his assets, nor will this be excused the way they just said because it was an intentional torte. so, even if he goes to bankruptcy, he will have to still have this. look, they can go after it, they can follow it, and they can actually -- >> so, bankruptcy doesn't wash it away? >> not when it's an intentional torte like this. >> an intentional torte meaning what? that he was intentional in his lies? >> yes, exactly, that he harmed him, he caused -- he defamed them intentionally. he caused emotional distress intentionally. this wasn't an accident, for example. this was something intentional. >> from a legal stan

in 1950, you know, with segregation and and that's one of the main elements at the beginning when freedman and blum are making their arguments and kind of track that over time, you know, i mean, race is on avoidable. it's a major part of the history. and frankly, i think the argument this was a civil rights issue is sort of how, you know, school choice advocates essentially won the day. and, you know, legally speaking and made their to the public in a lot of ways. and and so it's it's interesting to see, you know, how that how that tension plays out because. you also have black families and latino families who are opposed to choice, you know, and you kind of have to grapple with that and know had a lot of support from black leaders. polly williams was very influential. other black leaders were also in support and that had a of sort of grassroots support from black families but cleveland didn't and i thought that was interesting because a lot of black legislators in ohio actually were opposed. you know very much opposed to school vouchers and felt like this is going to bleed resources out o

what jumps off of monetarism and freedman's later theories which points to thete role of expectations in inflation is a hall monitor framework and model today. so the fact that thee federal reserve is very open today first of all it was not infrequent stipends like a secret club. don't release reports of what they had done after the fact that they didn't tell anyone what you're talking about. and one of his insights was inflation while is connected toh the monetary authorities, it has a paste a what people think is going to happen next. that's what you see things like forward guidance and all the communication with the fed. the other piece of monetarism that's really important is friedman's policy idea. over time he came up with what he called a monetary growth rule. he basically said fine, maybe w, have to have the federal reserve but we're not ready to end the fed, who earlier in his career he thought that might be a good idea. so if we have a federal reserve they should be more accountable to congress and they should be more accountable to everybody but think this is what we're goi

seen as a watershed moment for ofsted, and that systematic changes are needed, but according to sam freedman05 and 805, so from that point of view there's definitely been an improvement as a result of having regular inspections. few doubt the value of holding teachers to account for the performance of their schools, but for some, this case has raised questions about how best to do so. ruth perry's death is a tragedy, and could yet be a turning point for the way schools are inspected. the department for education says it's "worked closely with ruth's family, as well as with ofsted to introduce key reforms", and that it will "look closely at the coroner's recommendations to consider further changes". let's speak to a former chief inspector of schools, sir michael wilshaw, who ran ofsted in england between 2012 and 2016, and he's also a former headteacher, and maria kemble, executive headteacher of st edmunds and stjoseph's rc primary school in suffolk. and foreignjudges and foreign judges stopping what we welcome both of you. so the ruling today, that an ofsted inspection likely contributed to
