abdul el-sayed, and cofounder of the dispatch, jonah goldberg.ught this part was redundant -- everything we talk about today. this kind of an ick factor when i say the idea of, how will this boost approval ratings? it's still a loss of life, i'll be at one that said terrorist. but we do gauge and judge this in this way, can we not? what we do because he's the commander-in-chief. will this give him kind of a rally around the flag for a moment? what do you think? >> the rally around the president from non israel. here we are, and i think that's the world we live in these days. i suspect that it will be hard to disaggregate from all the others. this is the best week, ten days of the biden presidency, arguably, in terms of the winds he racked up. it'll be hard to disentangle this from the other things. there are a lot of legitimate questions still to be asked. why was the head of al-qaeda welcome to live in downtown kabul, for example? >> we called it the safe house, and i just said no, we're not thinking like -- it wasn't like in oblivion. they're t

back with me errol lewis, abdul al saeed, and jonah goldberg.'s not a lot of consistency in the disciplinary actions of the nfl. am i wrong. >> you are right to tell you the truth. if you look through the document, what they did is go through, as a court might do. >> non-violent, they called it. >> that is the opposite of leadership. that is the opposite of progress. that is the definition of the status quo. let's here's what we'll do one more time >> light is it seem different? >> because this abhorrent behavior will not stop unless you really punish it. and so the idea of maybe a season or imposing an actual serious financial fine. it is just hard to do when you have a quarter of a billion dollar deal. >> which they gave him after the allegations were already out? the allegations were out. >> structure in a way that he made a whole bunch of money matter what. >> it won't change until it changes. and they've got to make some changes. i think everyone watching this knows that the nfl, which is impacts up the ball to public pressure, we'll wait t

. >> let's bring in political commentaries kari sellers and jonah goldberg jonah, you saw kyung's reportingcans win the house and other offices fair and square in november, they still have a chance to do that. how do they then convince voters the results were legitimate after they spent all this time sowing doubt? >> i think that's actually -- it's worth keeping in mind that a lot of these people don't really have a theory of the case of what to do once they have caught the car other than to actually count the ballots. as kyung pointed out in her report, these counties are likely to go overwhelmingly for a republican anyway, so if they want to inconvenience themselves to do hand paper ballot counts, it's unlikely that they're going to get some -- anything other than the real vote. and that's probably a good thing. cyber ninjas tried really hard to invent all sorts of theories and they had to admit they couldn't find anything. i'm not trying to condone this or minimize the spread of conspiracy theories and nonsense in the republican party, but i don't know the leap has proven that because th

it reminds me of something i read last night from jonah goldberg from "the dispatch."ng for a banana republic." he wrote this, if your belief in our country is so fragile and pathetic that you will lose hope for our nation unless donald trump is given free reign to cleanse the land of evildoers, you don't love this nation. if you want your preferred faction being in power, you've confused partisanship for patriotism. this banana republic talk is un-american. if you're worried about america looking like a banana republic, please don't tell me the first president in american history to defecate on the peaceful transfer of power is the anecdote to the rot of third world corruption in our regime. he is the rot. when i hear people talking, the extremists talking about, on cable news channels, that an attack on donald trump is an attack on them, that's like saying an attack on al capone is an attack on them. you know, back when they went after capone. this guy, again -- these same people who were begging him to stop the riots on january 6th are the same people who know he is

cupp and jonah goldberg, founder and editor-in-chief of the dispatch.of the erics. this is the weirdest things. trump says high takes endorsement, eve of the primary and comes out with an endorsement that says, therefore, that's why i'm proud to announce that eric has my complete and totally endorsement. the two candidates are of course named eric. what is going on, s.e.? >> i call this the hey you endorsement. when you don't remember who is going in, you say, hey, you. totally noncommittal. there was a point to this, because he doesn't want to choose. on a serious note, this is fair, but again, how unmotivated trump is by ideas and principles and policies. really, he just wants the allegiance. whichever guy is going to fight over me the most is fine with me. he doesn't care what ideas win. he accomplishes that with the hey you endorsement. >> yeah, i think s.e.'s pretty much nailed it, but if it remains a joke that could be g funny. if it was surely like a troll, you know, him basically winking at people saying i don't know what to do here, it would be

at least there was this from jonah goldberg, quote, just remember, if these reports are true, that means that if they can search the ex-president's home for vital nuclear documents and signals intelligence, they can do it to you, too. where we can't agree on the facts, there's the concern that things will get even worse. as david brooks writes "the new york times" under the headline, did the fbi just re-elect donald trump? america absolutely needs to punish those who commit crimes. on the other hand, america absolutely needs to make sure that trump does not get another term as president. what do we do if the former makes the latter more likely? i have no clue how to get out of the potential conflict between our legal and political realities. here is my thought, let's all catch our breath. step back. let the dust settle and hopefully we can learn what was in the documents trump kept and why did he keep them? were some nuclear in nature? were any properly declassified? and were all less adverse means exhausted by the justice department before the search warrant was obtained? those are my q

hethis is why the jonah goldberg and the chris hayes, these guys are all such trump peters and mytheory is this . they never were conservative. what happened was they would assume a conservative position in parties and in speeches for the heartland institute or young americans or whatever they would go and make these conservative sounding speeches up till trump because they knew what he was going to change and so at the end of the night they could go back to their liberal buddies and cocktail parties and say it would be nice if roe versus wade was overturnedbut we know that's never going to happen . they clinked glasses and walk off and here comes trump, he says no, we're going to actually do the things i campaigned on, change this country and that hit him like a brick wall . all of a sudden the threat was that policies were actually going to change and they could no longer go in front of these people and pretend to be supporting conservative positions if it actually meant they were going to have to defend real conservative change so i think that was anissue . >> there was a surprising

this is why the jonah goldberg's and the david fringes french fry and the chris hayes is these guys are all so so such trump haters and theory is this never were conservatives. they never were conservatives. what happened was they would assume a conservative position in cocktail parties and in speeches for the heartland institute or young americans or wherever they would go and and they would make these conservative sounding speeches up till trump because they knew nothing was going to change and so at the end of the night they could go back to their liberal buddies at the cocktail party. he said well, you know, we're being nice to provide was overturned, but we know that's never gonna happen. oh, they click glasses and they'd walk off right and here comes trump. he says no, we're gonna actually do the things i campaign on we're gonna change this country and that hit him like a brick wall because all of a sudden the threat was that policies were actually going to change and they could no longer go in front of these people and pretend to be supporting conservative positions. if it actual
