the liberal former lib dem colleagues? iie: liberal democrats former lib dem colleagues?ou will be overwhelmed by happiness and enthusiasm and there is a davies standing up and waving his arms in the air. you can't do that because he is isolating because of covid, a reminder that those sacrifices people are making is still a massive part of political debate. liberal democrats have been written off as a political force after 2015. they won the chesham and amersham by—election and there was criticism that was on the back of the anti— housing development, and the conservatives had a policy agenda they could refer to as a response to that by—election, but they could also feel good about themselves or maybe they were just promoting the economy too much and they didn't need too much and they didn't need to worry. it was just the controversy of doing the right thing. this is completely different and the liberal democrats are celebrating. this is just back to the 19905 victory. with the last time we saw things like this it was 5aw things like this it was simply saw things like th

it is true we are seeing a revocation of the liberal democrats.- the liberal democrats.ey were completely destroyed, j were completely destroyed, consumed, eaten by the conservative party in 2015 after their five year period in government. it is a double—edged sword in a way for the lib dems. on one hand it is clear they way will be re—establishing themselves, they used to be known as the party of protest, none of the above. you were not happy with labour or the conservatives have a duopoly and the lib dems did very well. in 2005 at 62 seats, just less than that in 2010. we are seeing a return to that. the question is what are they for, afterjust being a party of protest. as a result of by—elections this year, those mps will be 15% of the parliamentary total. it is not an insignificant thing when you have so few numbers in the house of commons. we have so few numbers in the house of commons. we are seeing the candidates _ house of commons. we are seeing the candidates gather. _ house of commons. we are seeing the candidates gather. we - house of commons. we are seeing th

liberal democracy, are liberal democracy is on the truck to day on the track from outside european union, china, russia. it's also on the inside because of the social media, social media like facebook are in their mining all liberal democracy. so direct involvement of the citizens inside the decision making process of the european union isn't really a good answer. i think a real answer 2 words. yeah, this degrading the liberal democracy to the social media sbc today. why is my facebook undermining your liberal democracy? why is that the? is that the i think that's, that's obvious. at least everybody understands that when you go on facebook and you put, i don't know what, for example, chinese communist party, on your facebook, that for the next 5 or 10 years, you will receive mostly only posts and see posts and messages concerning the chinese communist party let me go to the thing you put. yeah. but if you have other things you'll get to play. sorry, let me explain the algorithm. this behind the system of facebook are made in such a way that at the end, people only see what they think and

and because of what he did inside libya, in terms of liberating to live in economy liberating the from for in control in the future, we seek to bring back libya that is for libyans. this of course, does not mean that we seek her style relations with the west or the east. we seek to work with our problem is we need to contact rather than is we no contact here, as i understand and we spoke to the boss. now the black petroleum be blue, i denied that he denied it was about a is in lithia, they have their guys and i'm hoping for either candidates to win over. but i assure everyone that they're in the newly when islam reaches the position of the president, for this new libya will be a peaceful land. and a member of the international community which would include economical gratian, political corporation. but all based on a sovereign country, not on a satellite country belonging to the western powers. obviously, nato nations deny that they have ever wanted to control the oil. it was all about humanity. i'm going to ask you, given that you are information minutes to, to mama get effie and he w

it’s the liberal democrat candidate in this election?— in this election? i in this election? it's that promise of being a good | in this election? it's that i promise of being a good local champion. but it's also, i'm fundamentally here, this is about those unforced errors. it's about the owen patterson scandal in the first place. the idea of tolerating, almost permitting this scandal to go unmarked and thought of changing the rules to enable someone to get away with having broken the rules but i think that sort of against people's sense of naturaljustice. and then you then follow that which is why people are heading to the ballot box at all with an extraordinary series of revelation about parties, about i guess contempt really for voters who have been through an extraordinarily difficult nearly two years of covid restrictions and who, you know, almost universally have complied with those rules, given up on family and friends and contacts in that run—up to christmas, that sense this government doesn't stand for them and people like them. this absolutely is

so stop comment liberals do this all the time.s are always trying to fix everybody else's problems, right? they need to fix their own problems.

[applause] we are tight on time so we are only going to get a couple of questions and then we'll move into a book signing. we have to apologize that we cannot take photos with their phones and we can't do personal -- our first question is going to from somebody special wanted to be here tonight. he's a colleague of yours jesse and if he would face the screen and take his first question. >> hello nixon library. i was looking at the way he looks at live and work, politics. hello nixon library. i've one question for jesse. how was working with

liberal democracy, our liberal democracy is on the truck to day on the track from outside european union, china, russia, it'll show on the truck inside because of the social media, social media like facebook are in their mining or liberal democracy. so a direct involvement of the citizens inside the decision making process of the european union isn't really the good answer. i take a real answer to words. yeah, this degrading the liberal democracy to the social media sbc today. why is my facebook undermining your liberal democracy? why is that the? is that the i think that's, that's obvious. at least everybody understands that when you go on facebook and you put, i don't know what, for example, chinese communist party, on your facebook, that for the next 5 or 10 years, you will receive mostly only posts and see posts and messages concerning the chinese communist party you put yeah, but if you know how they have other things you'll get to play. sorry. let me explain. the algorithm is behind the system of facebook are made in such a way that at the end, people only see what they think and n

a liberal -- the group of liberal-inclined republican students entirely? or mainly? >> yes, grad students -- >> and then graduates -- founded in? >> it was actually started to percolate in 1962. and finally, really clicked when kennedy was assassinated. we really looked at ourselves and well, what are we all about? what should we do? and we found a name for ourselves. which is the name of rippon wisconsin, which is where the republican party is founded, out of a whole bunch of different prior organizations like the whigs and the know-nothings and such. but, so it had specific reference to the founding of the republican party. >> we have -- we're at a disadvantage of not being able to really see, but i showed it to you earlier. it's a group photograph. i see a couple -- i see david young, who became a white house colleague. >> yes, he -- david was not that active. this is just a moment in time when he happened to be at a meeting. >> and this is, i think of this as when power went to hour head and you started doing the glam. this is like the "vanity fair" treatment. >>

so, just your assessment of the nature of this liberal democrat victory.- liberal democrat victory.ory. yes, i think people here _ liberal democrat victory. yes, i think people here north - liberal democrat victory. yes, i - think people here north shropshire had almost taken themselves by surprise with this victory, as we were hearing, north shropshire up until yesterday a conservative majority of almost 23,000. that was all 0wen paterson got back in 2019. speaking to voters here today, they have said it has taken them by surprise as well. a lot of conservative voters think that they voted liberal democrat for the first time because they were dissatisfied. they wanted to send a message to the government, and it has to be said that whilst local issues had played a big part in this campaign, you know, that shouldn't be understated. there are big issues with access to services, particularly the nhs and things like ambulance waiting times because of the nature of the seat. at such a big rural area and it takes much longer to get to a lot of these services. there is no doubt that what h

we are talking about this be liberal democrats wind.nister borisjohnson prime minister boris johnson and prime minister borisjohnson and his conservative party. let's not undersell this. this is, as elizabeth was saying, a truly historic result. people might not be familiar, even the united kingdom, with north shropshire, shame on them, but if they are not, this is a seed that has been conservative basically since britain was a democratic country, it is a rule and bedrock democratic seat, an older population than average, heavily brexit voting seat. on paper there is no doubt the conservative party should not only win it, but when it had a level to get here we are with liberal democrats who came third in the general election in 2019 in the seat, we don't even have a single counsellor to their name in the seat, achieving the when we understand to be around 30%, thatis understand to be around 30%, that is over and above actually what they required. it will be one of the biggest swings in any by—election we have seen in recent years and on

then he presents a very authoritative interview of the liberal conservative wings of the republicans party and an insiders view of how very tasty and substantive sausage domestic policy sausage was made in the west wing of the white house in those productive years of 69, 70 and 71 those first three years were the stars were in alignment with the staff and even some of the congress. at any rate than which is rare in the nixon literature you provide an objective view of nixon and what he was like and that's where and i think you bring in your own experience and observation but you also bring in your own judgment and intelligence. and this might sound very happy but you have a way with words. you have an eye for the colorful and the goat which is easy-to-read and easy to remember and you can turn a phrase and the most important thing is you will sign some books or words. so let's get to the book and began at the beginning. tell us something about yourself. >> i was actually the product of a small liberalized college in iowa, grinnell and it was revealing. 100 years ago or more was one o

they're not near liberal or liberal. and they are instead a marxist sto capitalist. or what i mean by that is that there is a and again this was exemplified at the beginning of the year in january, by the now 2nd appearance of teaching ping. at the devil swelled economic forum. he originally appeared in 2017 when trump was elected. this year he appeared again albeit virtually, and he was welcomed then as before, by couched bob, the head of that forum, who again is a very emblematic figure for these well business cities and shop said to him, you have shown us mister president, the principles which should guide us on our common path and that phrase expresses this horrible convergence between totalitarian communism of the kind which exists in china, which as we know has a very strong capitalistic element and western capitalism. and that i think is the way to characterize 2021. it's the, it's the end of animal farm when the pigs and the farmers reconcile and get back together again over the heads of the animals. that's the world we're living in in 2021. okay, let's go to

and secondly, yeah, we need is also this new type of democracy because our liberal democracy, your liberal democracy, our liberal democracy is on the truck to day on the track from outside european union, china, russia. it's also on the inside because of the social media, social media like facebook are in their mining all liberal democracy. so direct involvement of the citizens inside the decision making process of the european union isn't really a good answer. i think a real answer 2 words. yeah, this degrading the liberal democracy to the social media sbc today. why is my facebook undermining your liberal democracy? why is that the? is that the i think that's, that's obvious. at least everybody understands that when you go on facebook and you put, i don't know what, for example, chinese communist party, on your facebook, that for the next 5 or 10 years, you will receive mostly only posts and see posts and messages concerning the chinese communist party let me go to the thing you put. yeah. but if you have other things you'll get to play. sorry, let me explain the algorithm. this behind t

the liberal late night shows are not funny. you heard the statement.1 equivalent of the budweiser's frogs and charlie bit high finger. this is not an insurrection as one writer from the atlantic described it. an insurrection is a violent rising up trying to overthrow government. this word insurrection is being thrown around in 2021 like racist was thrown around in 2020. they are not correct usages of the word. this was a joke. it was funny. played that clip again. everybody watching it laughed. we need to relax and realize funny is funny. it's not the overthrow of democracy. >> tomi. the thing some people in the media don't understand by expressing this level of outrage over the phrase, it's just going to make people say ittine more. >> absolutely. i don't think they are so outraged at this dad for saying "let's go brandon." they are more embarrassed that the president said "let's go brandon," i agree. we elected this man and he literally just said something horrible about himself? he is not in on the joke even though people explained it to him time an

he was the member of congress, a liberal democrat, who against whom, richard nixon ran. to his great surprise, it was regarded as a very negative, and dirty, campaign. for his analysis underestimated next. and at grenell, a classmate of mine was a youngster name for his junior. we went to a master program together where i heard nothing but diatribes against richard nixon. he told me, the night of 1960, on election night, his father, the former congressman, rented a suite in the blackstone hotel in chicago, a democratic hang out, fill the bathtub with ice and boots, and beer, and wide, and broaden anybody, anyone who would want to drink to celebrate nixon's defeat. so, as i say in the book, it's an odyssey from that background and then through response aside he and lebron and working with nelson rockefeller, was a paragon to 1960s liberal republicanism. to richard nixon who was wrongly seen as someone who was progressive, illiberal, someone who believed in government. an agent for. good and strong government. >> and your father, who was an engineer, or chemist? >> he was

when i i wrote the proposal fr this book i called it what's the matter with liberals? i think we do share a lot of commitments about questions as well, what of the biggest problem facing america. it's just a question of how do we achieve those goals. but yeah, i want to hear more from both of you. >> if i could chime in for one second. i actually agree completely. if you go to college classroom at an elite school today it's all about identity and it's what i call the victimization olympics. when you meet people that are going to tell you a host of factors about themselves that usually intends to transmit some sense of harm. i'm this, , therefore i've been hurt this way. i am that's why they hurt that way. when i first meet students i reject that immediately. that's fine, i don't care about your gender, race, ethnicity, any of that. let's try to find something we can all agree on. who are we as a class, one of you to do collectively as a community? i am troubled by the idea that the entire woke framework demands taking on this sort of mantle of victimization in doing so

and as parliament to liberates, she is a spectator, looking on as the man who replaces her two havingtyled himself as a male merkel. >> let us bring in our guest to talk about this in berlin. a professor of political science at stanford university in berlin. from brussels, rebecca, a nonresident fellow at the independent think tank, and in london we have the chair of applied political science at coventry university and the author of angela merkel's biography. a warm welcome to all of you. so if i could start with you you are where is all happening. what can we expect from this new german government? >> the new coalition won the election with the promise they will do things differently from marco -- angela merkel. the promise to be a reformed team and they stand for their selling points, social democrats for social justice, environmentalists, the green for climate change and the liberals are more business oriented economic priorities. and they all promised this will be progress, whatever that means . but what we see in the elections is that the appetite for reform is -- which for a par

liberalism is neither easy nor sensational. in fact the liberal attempts and most difficult thing in the world namely to strike the balance between the rights of the individual and the needs of society. the january rarity, 1939 after two previous judicial challenges the supreme court rendered its decisive ruling on federal regulatory powers in tennessee electric power company and would leave the tva. the court determined willkie's commonwealth in 19 utility complainant had no standing to challenge the operations of the tva even though once again the decision ignored the central issue of the authority's constitutionality which the address.er would it costs the last argument cautioning wendell willkie about another matter. general johnson fdr's alienated former nra chief speculated in a column about willkie's chances as the gop underdog, the underdog served up the thigh slapping answer. the government keeps on taking myen business away johnson's ofr is the best i have had. >> and we will go on to fdr. the new dealal political cli

[laughter] when you go on a date wit

they're not near liberal or liberal. and they are instead a marxist. so capitalist um, what i mean by that is that there is a and again this was exemplified at the beginning of the year in january by the now 2nd appearance of teaching ping at the davos swelled economic forum. he originally appeared in 2017 when trump was elected this year he appeared again albeit virtually, and he was welcomed then as before, by couched bob, the head of that forum, who again is a very emblematic figure for these well business cities and shall upset to him you have shown us mister president, the principles which should guide us on our common path. and that phrase expresses this horrible convergence between totalitarian communism of the kind which exists in china, which as we know has a very strong capitalistic element and western capitalism. and that i think is the way to characterize 2021. it's the, it's the end of animal farm. when the pigs and the farmers reconcile and get back together again over the heads of the animals. that's the world we're living in in 2021. ok

liberals do this all the time. liberals are alwaysd trying to fix everybody else's problems . to fix their own problems. all right?
