michael reagan victory park looked like this. it was the symbol of the red army is victory over nazi germany. a place for ethnic russians to lay down flowers on victory day to commemorate their ancestors sacrifices in the 2nd world war. but the war and ukraine changed something around one and 4 people living in latvia, or of russian descent. many of them cherished their soviet past. but i forgot the majority of ethnic latvians, however, see this monument as a symbol of russian imperialism, and are glad that it's gone. for latins this monument, symbolize lattice occupation of the 2nd world war. and after russian version in your crime, we can't tolerate it any more. on june 16th the latvian parliament voted to remove all soviet era statues. the monument in riga was the largest in all of latvia. it took hours of continuous hammering to eventually make it fall. ah, with it gone, some hope that the scars of past can finally heal. and that russians and latvians can live together peacefully. fighting ethiopia between government forces a

michael regan. administrator reagan we thank you for joining us. before we get into the specifics of the challenges because of the epa and because of climate disruption, i have to ask of course about what appears to be a breakthrough on climate policy in the senate. the inflation reduction act passed, the bill contained the largest federal effort devoted to climate change. nearly 400 billion dollars to curb emissions and move away from fossil fuels. as head of our epa, at this point in history,, where does the bill do the most good? >> reverend, thank you for having me. thank you for asking that question. this is historical. this is a big day for our country. this is a big day for the president. when he ran for this seat, the presidency, he said he would bring labor and the justice committee, the business community together to tackle the climate crisis. this investment that we're looking at, the potential investment in the i.r.a. it is the largest investment to tackle the climate crisis united states history. this is a big day for the country. this

i wanted to read a quote from michael's father here, president reagan, in his farewell speech to the nation in january 1989. the president said "an informed patriotism is what we want. are we doing a good enough job teaching our children what america is and what she represents in the long history of the world and what it means to be an american? we have got to teach history based not on what is in fashion, but what is important. if we forget what we did we won't know who we are. i am warning of an eradication of the american memory that could result ultimately in an erosion of the american spirit." [applause] >> that was the end. at the beginning of reagan's term he commissioned and educational -- an educational assessment of america and essentially concluded that if a foreign country had done this we would call it an active -- act of war. >> we would like to turn to you, the audience, for questions. just a quick primer. if you have a question raise your hand. but please. wait until we get a microphone in your hand so we can hear your question. we have one right here near the front.

michael is so right. and ronald reagan has to be spinning in his grave at the prospect of the conservative movement that used to be the bulwark against tyranny of the world, giving the stage to a tyrant who endorses and supports vladimir putin and engages in the kinds of invective that the nazis engaged in a 1930s and 1940s. >> she, my producers yelling that we have to go, but i can't, i have to interrupt you. this argument -- ronald reagan must be spinning in his grave. baloney. there are republicans in congress right now saying nothing. what is mitt romney saying about this? absolutely nothing. what is former president george w. bush saying about this? absolutely nothing. so, hearing this, ronald reagan would be devastated. where the living, breathing republicans today who subscribe to rob ronald reagan politics in this country? >> liz cheney and maybe eight others. >> yeah. what he said. what he said. [laughs] yeah. >> what he said. mitt romney, i'm looking at you. michael steele and steve israel, thank you for joining

. >> thank you michael this is a very interesting idea and one that i'm still writing about but i do believe you are right there was a period and i try to be the beginning of the reaganinistration you see this move away from the collective ideal government as part of the problem and they were addressing real issues, government had overstepped there was significant overstepping but that does not mean the pendulumh has to swing all the way to where did. my feeling as time went on we lost sight because we were so prosperous, certainly in this country, we were so prosperous we did not feel that we actually needed one another. we did not needco the collaborative collective community approach everything was done with for us we had every service you could possibly need we began to believe we were exceptional. all those rules don't apply tose us. i think that's what happened certainly with the reagan administration in the pendulum began to swing and you see all of these towns a good example you want free trade, there is arguments for that. but you have to do something for those towns that have lost those factories that go to mexico, malaysia, china and it was almost as if we

michael and san diego, california. you are next. caller: good morning john. last time i talk to you was back in june and you had a gentleman on and when he was talking about ronald reagan, how much of a terrible president he was. now i would like to talk about how donnie bone spurs. do you believe the election was stolen? and they say, i know it in my soul. they don't say how they know it in their brain. he is terrible for this country. i just want a bag every democratic voter out there. please get out there and vote this november. host: do you consider yourself a democrat? guest: i registered as a republican in 2016. she said if you want to vote for republican you have to register as a republican. i voted against trump and 2016. in my heart i am more of a democrat. we are a republic not a democracy. host: you should call on the line listed democrats if that is where you are in your heart. that is all i would say about that. i appreciate the call. this is joe in iowa. caller: top of the morning to you. i think the democrats make their number one issue corruption. when citizens united was passed, they turned america over to the criminals. host: is that all he wanted to

reagan revolution. if they hadn't have done it, pat brown would have beaten him in 1966 in california and the world would have been completely different. that's what i don't understand about this, michael steel. i don't understand. mitch mcconnell, we're going to play these illuminating thoughts by mitch. he's saying the truth out loud. hey, we may not take the senate back over. we should, but we may not because the candidates suck. he didn't say it that way, but the candidates that donald trump has put up there suck. now, he's got his most senior members going around, saying things that could get government workers killed. and the people that keep apologizing for the terrorists on january 6th, people he thinks are terrorists. i mean, his speech on january 6th and his actions on january 6th, very notable. but it is having an impact. this is what i don't understand. i'll say it again, trump lost the white house. he lost the house. went out of his way, did the yeoman's work to lose the senate for republicans. first guy since herbert hoover to lose all three in one four-year term. it's happening again. look at this poll from arizona. i mean, let's just face it. i mean, mark kelly has unde
