and, you know, that was basically it but you know, the you know the idea that you know even western civilization was founded on things that were, you know, learned from africa is, you know, you know, just astonished that that so much of that history, you know, wasn't taught in schools and even within american history, there's a that was left out. and, you know, previously of the black arts movement and the harlem renaissance and the principles from those movements, you know, all of those people are, you know, important to read today. you know, we, you know, recently lost nikki giovanni. but, you know, people from the black arts movement also included columbia, amiri song, sanchez, you know, just a wealth of people whose writing still resonates today, because a lot of ways we are still struggling for the same things that based for and you know some of the writers from the harlem renaissance you know just you know producing remarkable work and in a time where was extremely difficult for for black people to be educated in the you know, these people lived in a time when it was illegal for black peop

that's, you know, but you know, again, like. the inflation has been a big problem around around the globe. and it just it's a it's hard to know whether that's tactical or real and, you know, another thing coming out of the election, too, was the messaging questions. you know, you mentioned some of those things that you say are the successes. and what we talked about at the beginning of this conversation, when i was asking you about the history books, looking back on the biden administration and voters not connecting some of those things with the president, could there have been something else done to get him more credit for those things from voters? this in this election? yes. so i think there's this like a central quandary, right. which is i mean, the way i kind of think about it is that we live in a moment in time where there is a a trillion things that are searching for your eyeballs. right. so like essentially their entire social media algorithms are designed to hold your out, your eyeballs, media is trying to think through

you know, they know what they know. i mean and it's but but it's an of of the educational in israel and i again, it pains me to say it, you know, the book will hopefully be out in hebrew soon. and i hope, you know, i actually hope more read it in hebrew than than in english. but but i can't have that conversation a million times. right. so i think i'll write the book maybe that will you know, the word will get out. but i believe that that the jewish if they really thought long and hard about, they visit it. they understood it, can't give it away. i mean, it's it's this great gift, this treasure that god gave us. and, you know, as i say, the book, you know, october 7th was, you know, to some extent, i don't want to i don't want to imply that i have any particular insights into what god thinks. but to me, at least way i took it was god saying to us, how many times i have to tell you, stop trying to give the land and i want to give you. don't give it away, it doesn't work. please don't do that anymore. and i hope that octo

there were people, you know, feeling rage, starting, you know, deny the election, you know. so i think it's basically that we're living in separate worlds. we realize that we're living in separate worlds and then we're baffled that the other side believes what they believe. we doubt their sincerity. we suspect that maybe they're being insincere just saying things because it's in their self-interest because they don't really care about other people. and, you know, that's how republicans feel about democrats and that's how democrats it's almost like it's the first step of peers. and but they're not getting to the next step of or something. they're just kind of returning to the cave. you mentioned cave where they recorded with their ancestors. did you do you think the nature, this human tribal instinct, instinct, tribalism is changing or is this a a momentary lapse of reason? no, don't think the tribalism is changing. think that our our equipment, our social psychology has been, you know, set, you know, for a long there's not much, i think genetic evolution of that sort happeni

so, you know, we we know the larger pattern in the battle of the bulge. eisenhower on down of course is to react to this to get the reinforcements there and obviously that takes some time. so we're seeing that in the 28 division sector, we're trying to cost them time. all these various rifle companies are doing precisely that. in the meantime, middleton running at core levels, having to grab anything he can get to go there and help the 28th and you know is screaming reinforcements as you might imagine the his headquarters is at phil's which is, you know, about ten miles behind the major lines there. and, you know, middleton ultimately is going to be in, you know, in or near bastogne and whatnot. but so he's laying hands on any kind of mobile information we can get to affect situation here and the first, major armor. now you've got or seven tank battalion that's in play the 28 division fuller's going to use them in an initial counterattack on december 17th. and you can imagine what that's going to be because you're you're running up against a lot of the se

you know? because i'd be like a lot 0 going all the way you have me today because as you may have i apologize to have what happens in everything else that's being real about myself and being really got to because he has to be real real with him 1st you know, have to level over 32 years ago. i find myself in a really, really dark place in my life. uh, you know, no home, nothing. i was just my wife and i uh, you know, she's like the lower now, but uh, we just had nothing and someone reached out to us. so someone offered us help. and we just want to get back to these beautiful people out here. i'm telling you is such a blessing. we come out once a month in order just that you don't speak to them about the lord. pray for them, offer them clothes we do raffles and make it exciting the books for the children. and that's what we're doing out here. religious people say they go back thing and tangled up in their about their own ways, an interpretation of the word. but if you break it down and you just t

they aren't, you know. so what will happen in religion in the sort of history of ancient religion, which i had a chance to study for many years is, you know people will go to the ruler and they'll say, well, it's not looking so good out there. it's not fair. it's not just it's dirty it's violent. you know, there's no security for family. you know, you're oppressing, fix it. and the ruler either can't fix it or doesn't want fix it or some combination thereof. and so, you know, the way to get around is to say, well, i have a plan for it's going to, you know, in the distant future if you obey what i you to do, if you if you believe in what i want you to believe that you're going to get to the place where it's going to be perfect and beautiful and wonderful. all you have to do, do what i say. and by the way, if you don't do that, then you go the other place, right? and it's honestly just very, very similar to the thinking. a lot of what we call this sort of mythological place called silicon valley. right. there

i mean know the real you know keeper is know people were getting clobbered you know before the provision i had my bipartisan bill with bob bob bennett, you know, where the insurance companies could discriminate against you if you had a preexisting condition. and so, as the book says, we won on five or six big issues where we didn't win on is we don't have to this day don't do enough to contain costs, particularly in the employer based system. mm do you have any regrets now? you look back on the biden administration, do you have any things you wish would happen differently, say with build back better and that course through congress? well, we, we, we, we had lost a couple of senators on some of the big economic and, you know and and in tax you know there would have been a bunch of things that we could have done differently in terms of making the case that this ride for billionaires with all kinds of accountants and and the like with something that directly contributed to middle class, you know, people being forced to pay that stuff. so yeah, there several things we do differently. do you

you know, the herdsmen or the you know, the row cropper, they divided. it resulted in a murder. so we we have to fight that and get back to being americans and making that more important than our own personal quest. and so we before me, that's kind of where we are right now. we're in this state of division. i think there's some a lot of question marks in people's minds right now because of the election. so that people are saying are are the sort of tenets that we've lived by, the values that we've held, you know, still popular. i think on the left, they're having to ask that question of themselves. there's a lot of introspection going on there because this was a pretty resounding victory for the right. but when you look at it politically, up until this point and that newfound sort of introspection. pretty divided. and let me i wanted to want to read this quote here because because i think i think it's got an important point. but also, i want you to read to to tell people whether or not this is a this is a negative book or a positive, hopeful book. because i think i think it's mo

hey, you know, soccer and you know, it would be the word. so you kind of makes me want to have a shower after i look at his videos now when my daughter to jo. them. so let's have a look at justin. hi justin. featured on this year's most go meals. he's a guy, i just loved a one of the videos here is at the gate parade in toronto, telling a 6 month old baby to have a good pride. yeah, you hear me royce, a little baby. have a good price. it's not a dr nation. no, it's not on the video and the happy prize. happy pride. what's dancing in front of bob's shaking his us, take it away. ok. i don't understand why he does have to check it y, y, y y o u y. i made a lot of 2 bucks of my life, but i've never learned that to you have to why, why is the search and ask why, what of the so who this thing wins this? here's ask the year award. i think us see it has to go to just into though, because he could probably be ok if he just wasn't an us. so that makes him us 3 here. congratulations system you want. so we move on to the next category and this end of ye

you know? i live here. i love people. you know what? i will, i want more people to confiscate, swapped me ro go when you get to vendors and start making the money the right way. feel we're not to do it. the only stream of money that comes in here is doris the artwork. well, i've got a couple of people starting to get the idea on their artwork. come and make displays by the roadside. you know what we need to kind of grow that. i imagine us being a place where a late a lady moves into a new apartment in palm springs and says, a flat wall really needs a painting. let's go to a slab city and see what they got. so there's, i think it's called slab just as a sub, just this is us like the slab or it's kicking out whoever needs to be kicked out or, you know, run and you know, i don't like doing it. but you know, if you, i don't want extra money or i've been through a lot of my life, bro. went through a lot of the drive by and 96. my best friend oscar hereto got shot in the head right in front of me. uh 60 years old. so i've been to a lot of, yo

i mean, he, you know, look, he did, you know, broker the ceasefire in lebanon.a has remained out of reach. um, and it's, you know, you mentioned that obama said one president at a time. it was not only obama, nixon said it. bill clinton said it when he was incoming as well as outgoing. this is something that's always been a norm of the transition period. but donald trump is not waiting for that handover. you know, he's making policy pronouncements. he's holding court with world leaders at mar a lago, in a way that previous presidents, incoming presidents haven't haven't done much of that, right? and so there's always this awkwardness with foreign policy where you have the incoming president trying to set the tone, um, you know, backchannela bit, right? but biden has really sort of stepped, you know, out of the spotlight and allowed this vacuum in messaging both for, you know, the incoming administration talking about, you know, ithink democrats i've spoken to would prefer him to be a bit more vocal about some of these nominees that donald trump is putting forth,

you know, as a historian, author, you know, the first thing i thought about was why john lewis. why now? and what made you want to write this book? yeah, and that's a question we all with. my book i had finished was in 2016 called republic of spin. and was a history of the white house spin machine communications, image making messaging that really ended with obama and the time i published it. who was the political figure everyone was talking about but donald trump. so a lot of people are saying to me, you have to write about trump. but as we went in the trump presidency, honestly he was the last person i wanted to write about next. you know, i was faced with donald trump every day when i turned the tv, when i opened up my computer. and one day i'm watching a documentary about robert f kennedy for whose 68 presidential campaign john i hadn't remembered had worked. and lewis comes on and he's a talking head in the documentary and it suddenly occurs to me there a biography of john lewis. and lo behold, there wasn't one. no one had written one. and it seemed to me a way in those yea

i know, i know your type. it has to be. if it's not, i know your type. >> what is this? sparkling wine from the napa valley. this out of here. darn it! yeah, yeah. >> champagne. >> anything sparkling. you're all for it. all right. >> alex, are you a bubbly? >> yeah, no, i do, i do enjoy champagne. i enjoy champagne a sparkling rosé is really nice, too. so secco prosecco would be good. yeah. i'm not a big wine drinker generally, but i do like sparkling wine, vodka tonics, sparkling. all right, we got more like it or not. coming up right after the break. yea yeah. all right. >> welcome back in here. to like it or not, we're having a good time here. celebrating the new year with our fantastic panel. tom vacar rosemary oroczo. greg lee is here talking about, you know, our preferences when it comes to new year's eve celebrations. you know, we like to toast with something bubbly here. and another tradition that a lot of people have is the song you will hear playing once the clock strikes midnight on new year's eve. is an old tune and it's called auld lang sign. we all know thi

and, you know, those. yeah, well, we'll have to just focus on what's important for us. you can just simply, you know, dissipate our energy on pointless conflicts. so i think it's going to be a challenge and i think is mark points out there are those that he's surrounded himself with many of you know what the neo cons intervention is. look to mccain, e x, what it's determined to continue as before. yeah, well i'm actually, the argument would be made and will be made against trump in a, in a matter of months, days maybe hours after he takes office is that, well, there's a certain way of doing business and presidents. well, they come and go, but we have an established approach to governing the world to hedge them. i mean, we've seen this movie before. trump did try it and they pulling out of trips from syria and the easiest example. or if i'm making a bold overturn in north korea, we all know how these things ended. why is it going to be different this time? okay, so 1st of all, let's, let's, let's address a,

know. parents upset at school board meetings as terrorists, but the government is more wrapped up in security theater like the tsa than actual real security. and if things leading up to las vegas and new orleans were ignored because the government was focused elsewhere, we deserve to know. we deserve transparency and we deserve competence. our lives depend on it, and we certainly pay enough. yes. period. >> let's welcome tonight's guests. >> her lenses are progressive, but she sure isn't host of the kennedy saves the world podcast. >> kennedy. >> he thinks vanilla wafers are too spicy. fox news contributor tom shillue. he sounds like a smoker who lost his house in poker. comedian jim florentine. all right. his old shirts are used to cover the infield at citi field because his shirts are big. because he is big. new york times bestselling author, comedian, former nwa world champion tyron. >> when we say fenway park. >> or kennedy, it's been obviously a long, horrible day. awful, awful day. yo

i mean, he's spoken to, you know, tariffs coming in february, but you know it's the real world effectknow, i think people are going to be watching very closely as he's settling into his administration. and i've seen some democrats already taking this as a line of attack, saying, "it's day two. "it's day three. "it's day four of the trump administration, and the prices of eggs are still as high as they were before the election". and of course, that's perhaps an unfair standard. although donald trump said he would bring prices down on day one. inflation is sticky. it's hard to bring down, and it's clearly not, you know, there's not one executive order that would bring down the price of eggs, necessarily. there are a number of factors that go into why grocery prices and a number of other things like housing, why those prices are so high right now. at the same time, i think that the fact that we've seen these executive orders on immigration and that we've heard donald trump talk about tariffs, that is a way for him to address the economic issues without perhaps being able to bring down th

and that's why just let us know. so don't even worse than our most likely in this is how far the 5th. okay. no side is and i lost the mustang best thing i'm up here is actually already leaving here. so the cable you'll have, you'll have by the end of the yes. so what i think there's a virus on way more of this, but there's a manual ice the are man. oh so it's the so long. wait until the end of the sauce, the say it was the most out of state and then not on the other side. even though i'm only that a little nice. there's a, there's a yes. you're still waiting on the apartment they know me. oh indeed, the aerospace, i see, you know, as i said, we're going to have him waiting dealerships already finished the wheels and a single crown. you know the media, english and bobby, but i see my not what do you use or something by the way, i feel that was unfair of staying on the one. there's a few of the ca, my, they the on the account the will get out of the ballot plus globally from blog as the last one moment though, i loved

, ophthalmology practices, to, to know what they call the, you know, the trades. right. so even plumbers are now owned by wall street, and they're, the american dream is dying quickly because nobody is able to make enough money to get their little piece of pie anymore. and he's got to find a way to reverse that. or else none of this is going to matter, but i do think culturally the election is already a massive turning point in american history. because it's a, it's, it's essentially exposed the entire cultural framework of the country as, as having no influence. and having been lost to its own audience and that's not something we haven't seen before in this country it's. it's fascinating. and just finally, i feel like i'm asking this question and every single interview at the moment of all, i guess will, will they try and kill him? what was he? i drive and kill him in the 2 months before january 20th. a split this way i, i will not be surprised if there are more assassination attempts because there's no evidence that this, that anybody inside the government had a

you know, the bricks is a, you know, so what i like called trump is like in the system the do you know, rich conferences, printers and bricks, you know, it came from the lecturing those people on the kid doesn't know. yeah. nobody, everybody's just absolutely scared to say to, excuse me, mister president, spain has nothing breaks. what do you mean? i mean, imagine this of the do the codes technically launch a nuclear weapon at the wrong country. so one of the gets pissed off or you know, really is about afternoon need sides. i'm going to teach one of those breaks companies a less than a spain is candid on the face for world spring willow span here was the espanol. so let's leave a washington. just phase us as a girlfriend and her new friend mister soaker berg, look over for sorry, and had to europe. of course, everything's going swimmingly. well, in the right. oh yeah. oh, i don't think so. they're literally themselves because the big dollars now in charge, ease of mine liable to get the members a break for him. he could possibly stay nukes main. so it's all gonna go down the pipe for

so if anyone out there knows? i want to know. i don't need to see it.i just want to know where it is. okay. so we have a couple of questions here from the audience. you know, one of the things we haven't really talked all that much is we talked a little bit about the economic equality in inequality at the beginning as one of the forcing functions for change. but there were this was also a period of great economic shift in terms of how people were thinking about things increase in trade and also technological change. could you explain if think those things have a role, how they fit into this age of revolution? yeah, so it's a great question. so i, i take a slightly. i have a position about which partly comes out of the fact that a lot of us historians have that political change flows from economic change. so in the early 19th century, there's a long tradition in u.s. history of arguing that democratize zation is caused by essentially early industrialization. one of the things that's really driving the rise of, let's say, jacksonian democracy is the early

and, you know, by the end, they agreed, you know, because i was making a guy that talked back and we're doing gallery shows where we will put people in a room. you know, we have like a bunch of mannequins like 5 mannequins with different different personalities. a little different, a personalities and we put people in the room for 5 or 10 minutes. and as soon as you say a single word, they all start cascading and go off of each other. so you have this really like a intense conversation with 5 different people. like one had a jamaica max and that goes to a different temperaments or women have you heard of technological singularity. the technological singularity is the hypothesis that the invention of artificial super intelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth resulting and not inside. and the goal changes to human civilization muffler. the can you tell please, what is its left and what is the cost of sitting there? should i have right here? like i say, this is one of the dining halls. and you can tell the advisors long stretch right here. this is where the dining roo

, who knows. and uh, but um i, you know, try and trump, you know, um for better for worse that is his own man. and i think that he will, um, you know, if they don't do his bidding, i think that hopefully again, this is all wishful thinking. it's they all we have i, i don't like to live without hope. so i try to look at the most hopeful scenario. and the hopeful scenario is that donald trump will want to deal and paused for peace and, and, and that held, it struck those your own ill and struck how could be to carry it out. and if, and if i, if he doesn't, he'll do you know who will be fired. so that's my guess. i mean, i'm not the, i'm not great at predictions, but that's just my hope that's more of my old and, um, well the only reason this happened. what needs to happen is that my god, the jet, donald trump's, that you know, i have, uh, when i go out and i tour all over the country, i just did a, a, we tour through kentucky in ohio where j events is from and the people that come to my shows the pe

i don't know. i mean, i'm not sure that, as you mentioned at the top, this was a kind of paradigm shattering election in many, many ways. money didn't matter as much as it has in other elections in our past. trump was massively out raised by the harris campaign and it didn't appear um that uh, you know, that has anyone donation whether it was from a law center mosque turn the tide. i think it was much more the past year of traditional media and the response of institutional america that people are voting against. um, so i'm not sure there. yeah. and so the, he's one, the house and the senate and it's his last term. so perhaps he doesn't o people like a president, normally always people, but then we wouldn't even know about some of the atrocities happening in gaza without, ironically, netanyahu's friend because of my us because he freed up. but x. what now for i think the great british politician george galloway called it mostly a media. what is going to happen to all of that? will they just be able

you know the soldiers food place, you know, we call the mess in the military. i don't know why they call it the mess, but that's what it is. right? there are forest labs just like this one around here. i mean, exactly the same pattern, the military, this was just a temporary base during world war 2. while our training, the guys to go to war, you know, and then the, and after the words they, they close this base down the think a 1st year i was out here. all these feel this was like a field and there was so much green on it like the plants. so we see right here where like, feel like it looked like a blanket blanket, a green and there was these. i don't know what kind of butterfly they were, but they're migrating and you'd walk through and they just like lift up and it was like, you know, like a blanket moved on right here. i'm gonna put in uh, a grove or uh, an orchard with um apple trees, ill citrus, a full variety palmer, granite, a lot of different things. my sister's husband bought me 14 trees for trees. so maybe putting those in the i built the staircase of

let us know. as soon as soon as i'm here for so long that and you know it's in the apple store for you, mr. aluminum, especially on the show on the web shows some of the game clean limits of new to me . and that's the good thing that i'm used to administrative slow. uh i didn't think about a loan component company. i don't, i'm with the phone. okay. yeah, we'll say, okay, i'm not some a prospect the delta dental. if so not a sky is a lot by new i don't know which of the i don't i just submitted sourcing to you. i mean, you know, to the guy with national for somebody to see me. we still don't get the baby stimulation me with those to bed a lot of money and dissolve them blah, blah. i wonder if isn't, you know, i thought i saw the salon, probably, i strongly in prospect. got a phone call from someone else, russell and i'm on the flight. he's not that he was the 6 of the so you see me, you is this nice. i was st quoting music. this is what i just got the phone you. why it's not on the do you want to

how i don't know, maybe you know him. i mean, how long is he going the less and how is he did they think they going to be ball getting with the rush or overload arrangements, i'll attack permissions given by the biden, immunizations, i mean, pollution is going to have more than that. surely, of course, i'm sure there are some arguments being made. the trump should kind of pocket. this is leverage and use that an upcoming negotiations. but i think you're right. holding is not going to give up what he is essential interest for russia over something like this. and he's made it very clear the deal with these are years that they are prepared to retaliate and put and has a very good alternative, which is to say, you all do this. you know, we can make sure that the north koreans can target your country with icbm and we can help them with their projects. is that what you want? so i would assume there might be some hard bargaining to come that uh, the web hand here is not held by the united states. frankly, i think it's the mosque

you know, healthcare, education close, you know, stuff, you know, things like that. yeah. and a little extra so you could maybe go to the movies or go out to dinner or something on a little vacation. you know, he's doing the to the whole dance with the yeah, i'm 77 and i don't get enough nearly enough income, but i have a affordable housing. it's called affordable housing, but they keep facing the rants, but they don't work that they don't keep, they don't raise my income to match, you know what i mean? my social security retirement. so do come here to make some extra money. yeah. supplemental you know what i mean? from the very last job i have was security, but i've done many things i've, i've been an optician, i've done security. i've been a secretary, i are in a forklift operator. i've sent them different things and you are working all your life. right. well, you know from at least 17 on us. yeah, i've been, i've been waiting for housing for awhile. like around 17 years and um, helpful. i'm whole personal care and uh, salvation army that goes together. and they got me a

you know why? because they proved i was right. all of that information was deleted and destroyed. they deleted all of the information having to do with the 10,000 soldiers that i offered to nancy pelosi. and she's now. >> on tape. admitting it. i have four of the five people on tape, and general milley was the fifth in writing, all saying that you authorized it in the days leading up, the capitol police chief asked for the guard was begging for the guard. muriel bowser, in writing, denied the use of the guard. >> but nancy. pelosi was more strongly denied it. >> she said that. >> she was responsible. >> for it, took responsibility. >> she was responsible, and she took responsibility for her daughter. when it was exposed, they found the daughter's tape, a videotape of her mother saying that she was responsible. and you know what? and they tried to lose it. >> but let me move on. >> to the unselect. remember this, the unselect committee, these people that were appointed all democrats plus two worse t

you know, that's what we all say, you know, when something happens. you know.said, actually, yeah. it was the first time somebody ever said, yeah, actually, yeah, i could use the support, you know i lost one of my best friends, and i just do not want to get back in touch with that in terms of doing, interviewing and really, you know, talking about that, i don't want to relive that. >> that's an unfortunate thing that, you know, that i wish had never happened. >> so after he had the car accident, it was a really rough time. but someone was killed in that accident, so it took a toll on him. and food was his panacea. food was his medicine. he thought he said food has never let me down. and i said, yes, it has. food is not your friend. >> i was walking down the street and this woman comes up to me and she says, you gonna put it all back on just like luther did? which was such a mean thing, you know, such a mean thing to say. >> anyone without the problem may or may not understand the full implication of what it is. you know, it's all kinds of things. it's not just

you know, they're just not safety by myself. you know, i don't know where my fun me are now. so and this team to continue and i hope king my father now hold on to me. so wouldn't be safe. so you did code that the, the everyone is, is moving. nobody knows what will happen. i need to stay most of the plan out really when i get time one me at least i opened up the window. i love. hi. so now what time you in on the suit that told me about some navy? i know when i was seen today. yes. what's out here? no reading books today that i'm be able for my children in the living that one month. now sometime in the nice year now we will see and like we'll see what's in the lack of access to how well maybe we'll say like then it says us in may. so raise the lights in. oh yeah. so and i see i said that was a little tax and yeah, this will difficult the the, the, the uh, the purchase food by just getting what what about $400.00 on the but it seems that we need out a silent plan for process. great. and we need so fast prep from yeah, most to as of right now for me. um like almost one and 9 mont

but, you know, i'm 54. i'm so young, you know, 54. and i, you i grew up i was very young when the nixons were in office. so i really came upon this as sort of a blank. i did not know mrs. nixon, but something about that mysterious, enigmatic did not ring true to me. it needed some more excavation. and so this book is really kind of a deconstruction of that mysterious image, media image, which is really not at all true. she isn't really mysterious at all, but she was made that way. i think the media and also by the fact she was a very private person. she didn't like to make a show of herself that was sort of anathema to her to be talking about herself, you know, praising herself. that was very not the way she was. so it was very hard for her to be in the spotlight and take praise, for instance, or to her and as we might say. she wanted to let her work speak for itself. i think. don't you? exactly. i think, yes. and she said many things about that, that you know, my active things that i do this is me, not not speculation about personali

, i know that, you know, and it's we want we just want more people to know. we want more people to know. and also, one thing i'm just thinking of, this is a why are there so few people thinking about the psychological element? this like, i mean, part of why i was so excited about your book and your work in general and a few other just film, death and taxes by justin shine. that was about what taxation did to his family. you know, how his father's tax avoidance affected their family. i love that those moments like those kind of works that are about where individuals psychology or collective psychology hits the market and the economy. why do you think people don't think about that that much? it's a great question and i wish they would give us another hour because i feel like we could really we could really we could really unpack all the all the particular sort of nuances of this specific issue. i it's just so encoded in american life that you have to be productive and that you need to succeed in ways that i think other countries just bristle at in the book, i t

going to is going assume, but if you the you know, so i know. yeah. what are you that probably have done most english so mean to it. i don't see that god doesn't exist even see on was you so? so say need and go in the video suited to the joyce, the lots of good on us for the salty and assign your so many kids that don't maybe ship it doesn't mean if you knew of it. yeah. what on the move and what not. but i'm old enough to do that or somebody else's your me, but i feel like it didn't go somebody the whole lot of that's the list of the didn't. okay. good. i low live, but you don't have to be and that the, all the loan, of course i would sort of go, but i don't know the, i mean yes you like in the middle east? you know, they just feel like go to the order of the most of us go blame of is it the fence over the over the past i kept my go to the, the on the field maybe up was, i mean, you know, they just in get the one of the pictures each one thing that he said he all get on a middle initial may 1st lot i'll say kind of feel as load or 15 call. give

the air, how i don't know, maybe you know him. i mean, how long is he going the less and how is he did they think they going to be boggling with the rusher over a long range missile attack permissions given by the biden administration. i mean patient is going to want more than that. surely, of course, i'm sure there are some arguments being made. the trump should kind of pocket this as leverage and use that an upcoming negotiations. but i think you're right, holding is not going to give up what he is essential interest for russia over something like this. and he's made it very clear the deal with these are years that they are prepared to retaliate and put and has a very good alternative, which is to say, you all do this. you know, we can make sure that the north koreans can target your country with icbm and we can help them with their projects. is that what you want? so i would assume there might be some hard bargaining to come that uh the web had here is not held by the united states. frankly, i think it's a mosque as a much show

but look, you know, you know, you don't know until, you know, and we're still in the first 48 hours. what is there are a couple of interesting tangential things here. and you're showing the american people how very quickly in this era of ring cameras and cell phones and all sorts of abilities to record video and to find connections we'll know these answers fairly soon. but as of late this morning, there was no indication either of coordination or of and this is where the intelligence community is implicated of any sort of foreign nexus. you know, it's very clear that the individual jabbar in new orleans was radicalized, but we're running down still. how how he was radicalized. >> and just to be clear, when they say, and this is what the fbi has told us, congressman, that he was 100% inspired by i.s.i.s.. that's obviously a specific word choice. they're not saying directed by i.s.i.s. or in contact with i.s.i.s., but have you heard of anything at this point that would indicate that he was directed by or had been in contact with any known i.s.i.s. operatives? >> no. and again, no evide
