thank you, george mason. maybe forgotten, but he does have the name of a great university in northern virginia that, has supplied a lot of great history majors that are sitting in this room. so yours truly to plug locate anything you know that i have anything to add it's it's interesting i guess, you know, playing off of what lindsey mentioned earlier that history is important to think of not just as stagnant or done or stale, just because it was in the past we have to keep going back to learn from it and something i like to say that i you know, like to keep on a little post-it note on my monitor at work is, you know, doesn't change. but our relationship to it does pretty constantly, right kind of depending on where we are standing in our present moment, our relationship to our past going to change. and so something i've been thinking about lately, working through looking at the 18th century or the 17th century through the lens of the 18th or vice versa, is that that must have been something that the quote un

but nova and george mason have other supports as well.emic pathways or majors that allow advanced students to earn an associates degree and a bachelors degree in four years. that educational route saves advance students about $15,000 compared to students who spent four years at george mason special financial aid for advanced students helps reduce the costs even more. >> at its heart, advance is about making transfer effective. hari: ann is the president of nova, the second largest community college in the united states. ann: when you look at our partnership with mason, even before advance, we sent the majority of our transfer students to mason. when you look at the ability to graduate after two years, it wasn't what it should be. that is the nexus of advance, we are giving students the transparent information so they know from the jump when they sign up exactly what it will take to graduate in two years or less, and more than 90% of the advance students now do that. hari: the program, open to all nova students meet eligibility criteria, i

our bill schneider is a public policy professor at george mason university. he joins a sly from washington, dc. great to have you with us a bit. let me start by asking you much, president biden has started really calling out republicans for what he calls maga extremism. and, you know, many democrats had wanted him to do this much earlier. why is he finally using his bully pulpit now? is this simply about the mid terms, or is there a lot more play here? how he booked? he would say there's a lot more play. the future of democracy says, history tells us that blind loyalty to a single leader and a willingness to engage political violence is fatal to democracy. he hopes that theme resonates and that the public sees this mid term election as a vote really on the security of our democracy. that's very important because otherwise, this president and his party, the democratic party, are in trouble. of the president's party usually loses intimate term, almost always loses support and without a majority in congress, president biden has no hope of passing anything in the

he appears to be the donor gave 0 million to rename george mason university's law school after antonin. we see he was frequently i mailing with professors -- emailing with professors come a one he was particularly frilly with as well as the dean. you can see they were quite eager to please him. he has also been, we believe, a donor to hillsdale college, which has come up in recent years and has helped undermine the idea or undermine the science related to covid. it has also served as a sort of feeder for the trumpet administration -- trump administration jobs. nermeen: why these universities in particular? >> so with hillsdale, we understand that barre is quite interested in the great books curriculum, these western classics. with george mason, it is a university that is politically influential, right outside the nation's capital, and it has become this sort of supreme court university. the law school is named after antonin scalia of. we see judges such as lance thomas, neil gorsuch have taught there in recent years as well. amy: we want to thank you, andrew perez, for being with us. w

well, george mason is a public school and i'm a virginia citizen so i got in-state swigs.overnment is going to pay for my education on the back end, that might change my decision on where to go. maybe i'll go to an expensive private school. maybe the expensive private school will say wow, we're getting this new interest because students think they can get their loans forgiven, why don't we raise tuition. what kind of incentives does this create, what kind of snow ball effects does this have? cheryl: i want to ask you, jeffrey, the kids you're with now, the freshman, soft more, junior -- sophomores, juniors, do you see them struggling financially? >> columbia offers significant financial aid to those that need it. for some students i see struggling, for some they're mostly going for close to free. but, yeah, i mean,e here. >> yeah. cheryl: i mean, it's new york. i mean, ol in flagstaff, arizona, a little bit cheaper. but when you were in high school and a lot of you and your fellow -- the students were making decisions about college, did a lost the kids in high school say m

and one of the strings attached was the george mason -- was that george mason rename its law school afterrs about all of this, the university after a legal battle had to disclose that renaming the law school wasn't the only string attached to that $20 million doughation. -- donation. leo and his donor wanted input over faculty hiring and that legal battle also unearthed the name of the anonymous donor. barry side. and all of that brings us back to side's $1 .6 billion to the leonard leo dark money apparatus. remember that with $0.6 billion, leo was able to orchestrate a dark money takeover our supreme court, stacking it with far-right justices that have already delivered massive victories for their dons. -- for their donors. overturning roe v. wade, undermining the government's power to combat climate change, throwing out commonsense gun regulations. if he can do that with $.6 billion, imagine what kind of damage he'll be able to do with $1.6 billion to squirt out as dark money through his armada of phony front groups. leo has also dispensed $153 million to rule of law trust, which appear

and in the end, they say, thanks, george mason, but you know, no thanks. and and he's one of the three people who votes now. so so this was a big mistake this gene. it almost dooms ratification when the two biggest objects in the constitution, congress is too small and there's no bill of rights. so how do these geniuses miss it? if you're a small d democrat, as am i, this is about we the people, about ratification, about the of crowds that on some things, a whole bunch of people, none of whom is a genius, may actually outperform albert einstein or ben franklin. small group of people can make a mistake. there's wisdom in the people. maybe not the first time around. you know. and if we keep voting for trump, it's on us. okay, but so. but in the end, the idea is democracy. may make mistakes, but they'll correct them. and there's wisdom in the people. it's called famously the condor says jury theorem, the war people. if you want to figure out how many jellybeans are in a jar or how big a heifer weighs at the county fair, you could ask smartest scientist you kn
