further than their tv screens according to a new politico op-ed that democrats should answer with john stewart. stewart has said no way he'll run. i think the tweet was, no thank you. this speaks to a larger question. is joe biden right now at this moment begin his poll numbers, the turbulence, the top choice in 2024? >> i think he's under pressure from his own base because there are things that the base are very angry about, abortion probably the number one issue, that he has limited power to impact. i think when it comes down to whether it's joe biden or donald trump in 2024 or joe biden versus ron desan esantis in 202 these issues will be much more important and people will be looking past any one issue and looking at the manner the men and women that are running in the race. i would also say that there's a long history of people from entertainment being in politics. a couple months ago everyone raved about president zelenskyy's skills and bringing the message of ukraine to the world. and he's a former comedian. so politics and american politics is no exception, have seen entertainers be ve

. >> i guess that's john stewart, he's more of a celebrity, more of a known person then to me.y cynical. he refuses to say what is in the bill now that wasn't it before when he supported it and what he wants cut. what he wants cut is going to be unpopular. other people say there is nothing added to the bill. so, it's really disappointing because he's on his way out, he doesn't really have to do this, takes such a hard cynical line, except, he wants to make a lot of money when he gets out representing corporate interests. this is what we can expect from pat toomey. >> tara. >> i think this is despicable, an attempt up political bregman ship again by republicans. it's retaliation because they got one upped, which very rarely happens. they got one up on the energy bill. this, they are using, veterans they're doing exactly what he's talking about, what pat toomey is talking about, they're using veterans for political winds. i think that's disgusting. these folks have actually been, in, out advocating for this, for their lives. this is something that they earned. it's owed to them.

one of the strongest advocates for the bill has been john stewart, offering his reaction late last night on msnbc. >> i've never seen anything like it. nobody on the hill has ever seen anything like it and the truth is the people who suffered the most and had to fight the hardest are the ones who will once again bear the brunt of this, you know, betrayal. boy, we love war but, boy, we don't like to clean up the consequences. always monies for war, never money for the war fighters. you know, they keep talking about why is there a recruitment problem in the army? because of the pronouns they're using. it's not the pronounce. it's that young people see that this government doesn't live up to its obligations to its fighters. it's as simple as that. >> chuck schumer said he will bring the bill up for a vote again on monday. >>> governor andy beshear announced at least six people have been killed in devastating floods there. he added an official death count is still being tallied. at about the same time, the white house announced that president biden approved an expedited major disaster declar

a longtime fears advocate of 9/11 first responders, john stewart, has also made it very clear to thislp clear. the white house confirming president biden called yesterday to think of hers advocacy. and now to show you why you probably don't take a month or deter either. after the committees blistering takedown of republicans, who suddenly voted through the p.a.c.t. act, tmz posted a video of senator ted cruz at the airport, the democrats pulled a quote, budgetary trick. stuart fired back, as only he can. >> now i am not a big city harvard educated lawyer, but i can read. it has always been mandatory spending, so that the government can't just cut off the funding at any point. no trick, no gimmick, been there the whole time. >> the pact act is widely supported bipartisan measure, at least it would've been. it would've expanded medical coverage to the more than 3.5 million veterans who are exposed to toxic burn pits during the wars in iraq and afghanistan. in response, senator cruz posted his own video on twitter, saying the comedian got it wrong. >> if they want to cram 400 billion dol

this vote is scheduled for tomorrow night, but john stewart, who is been an advocate for this cause for over ten years now, coming to capitol hill and having meetings about, it he told tract of this morning but that is just unacceptable. that they cannot wait that long. that veterans have been dying waiting for this bill to pass. so this issue, we know, is very personal to president biden. we know that he has said that he believes that these toxic burn pits possibly played the role in his son beau's brain cancer diagnosis. biden actually faced timing in spending out pizzas to these veterans groups and protesters are in capitol hill. as they really wait for what happens next. they are eagerly awaiting this vote. they say they will be outside the capital until i vote passes. >> ali raphael, thank you. nowhere to go to the white house where biden's plans are on pause after a second positive covid test. nbc's maura barrett is there, monitoring the president's condition. mora, biden had a busy week ahead of him. what happens now? >> well lindsey, the president had intended to make travel to

that is honestly some of the energy that john stewart's tapped with the daily show back in the bush yearsarrying, which people used to say sometimes isn't cool, around here we think it is important and unequal to care, between that and roasting and finding humor in problems. kind of an anti-cynical comedy, which built such a following that his teammates went onto big roles. you can even sometimes forget how these figures today, like cold air, john oliver started on the daily show. as did samantha bee, the beloved emmy-winning host of full frontal with samantha bee, who is on the beat right now in an interview. we are airing it for the first time where we talk politics, human rights, comedy and how her spirited approach can really shave and change minds while she has claimed, like stewart, that that is not even her goal. do you really have -- do you believe you can't shape minds through culture? when you shape minds through culture, eventually that can have other impacts, social change or how people vote. >> well, okay, listen. i don't think that any of us could do this work -- i think it

democrats, veterans groups, even john stewart who's been advocating for this legislation for almost a decade here on capitol hill. are saying that this was payback. they're saying they think the republicans were paying this back to democrats to announce that surprise deal between schumer and manchin. this is in issue that's extremely personal to president biden specifically. we know he said that he believes toxic burn pits could've played a role in his son beau's brain cancer diagnosis. we saw president biden face timing some of the people here at the capitol yesterday. so this is a bill that is likely to be brought up this week. the timeline of that is still uncertain. potentially something that many people here on capitol hill are watching. >> never a dull moment on capitol hill. allie raffa, thank you so much. and we take a quick break from politics now with some sad breaking news. a major loss in the sports world. basketball legend bill russell has died. his family announcing on social media he passed away peacefully today. with his wife by his side. the boston celtics great was o

we have to go back to john stewart mill who knew not only how immoral slavery is because it's a violation of your most fundamental property, right? you're right in your own body. but also how economically foolish it is. anytime that we take a group of people in our population, and we don't allow them to improve their human capital. we don't allow them to move around to where their labor is most needed. we don't allow them to invent things and sell them. we are all losers. so yes did a few southern planters get rich. yes, of course they did but that's not what free markets do free markets. don't make a few aristocratic types rich free markets make regular people. there they make the lives of regular people better off and regular southerners weren't better off. they were worse off even poor white southerners had their wages dragged down by the fact that they were competing with those who were enslaved and of course the lives of the enslaved were ruined by their slave masters in many ways. as we go on though, we look at emancipation and we see that after emancipation black americans are so e

many of the ones who were coming back, and there's a wonderful story about john adams reuniting with his friend jonathan stewart and they had their friendship had broken up over the revolutionary war and then when it was over they saw each other and just gave each other a big hug at one point. i can't remember right now whether this was while adams was in the u.k. or whether it was back on home grounds, but, you know, they-- there were ponds of friendship and love and family that sometimes were temporarily broken by the revolution. >> it is emotional when you think about it, really. and talk about that tension, the tension of bonds. i want to get into the tension between the bond between reservation and that tension right there and i want to start with ilene for this one. to kind of address the tension between the preservation and the loyalists in american history. how have loyalist writers and historians from the era perceived from their time of writing to today? has our perception of these story tellers changed over time? does listing loyalist stories give a broader perspective of american biography? >> well,
