obama's lead on this. the first lady was on the cutting edge of using social media to reach audiences. she wanted to meet people where they were. and so she was always getting to young people through whatever social media channel they were using. she went on "ellen" all the time because she knew that those were the audience, women who watched ellen, that she wanted to reach with policy ideas come and also to shift culture around issues like college access and healthier food for children. she was really good about that . she wasn't above any of that. i think that helped kind of also inspired the president's team to get more bold about social media. he did the "between two ferns" video, which some of you may remember, to encourage people to sign up for health care. but he also did a facebook live video to encourage young people to sign up for facebook and it turns out young people are not on facebook, so he used snapchat or i forget what it is called now. something like that. to get young people to fill out

and the idea that obama somehow the rides were kind of these national criminality and that they were examples of criminal behavior. it sounds to me like johnson. because immediately after and 64 after 15 -year-old high school student is killed by new york police department johnson makes the same steps and moves that obama did he said this is not about civil rights protests. tsthis is part of the crime problem. in his making less than part of the left and it is a riot. as a right must wait to respond to it is with police pretty what johnson said and what obama meant but mother limit is that these political violence is rooted in the same social economic demand in the civil rights movement and to police brutality and jobs and when people for the government supported people were not saying that we want welfare. we want jobs. we want decent housing get without rats running through our bentonite. people want more expensive educational systems and opportunities college scholarships for you and really, to be treated like full citizens by the city and by the country. that is what the rebellio

>> that's an unfortunate view that i have not encountered before but obama sounds a lot like johnson and frankly also a lot like reagan with this idea about the dependency pervading the narrative that he's telling about this kind of lost moments or wrong turn in the 60s. just on the king holiday, it's so interesting that by the ease even that nonviolent civil rights is being arrived and celebrated when much of the response to that nonviolent protest was police violence was german shepherd dog sick on black kids with hoses. so the kind of police violence that i'm dealing with in response to political violence, political rebellion also was the response to the nonviolent direct action protest that is being celebrated. so obama's, the idea that the riots were these kind of mass moments of criminality and that they were examples of criminal behavior again, that sounds very much like johnson because immediately after 64, after a 15-year-old high school student is killed by the new york police department, johnson case the same sex to move that obama did. he says this is not about civil righ

former president barack obama gave a speech in which he describes that transition in the following way, quote, if we're honest with ourselves, we will admit during the course of 50 years there were times when some of us claiming to push for change lost our way. but anguish of assassination set off self-defeating riots, legitimate grievances against police brutality it into excuse making for criminal behavior. racial politics hit both ways as a transformative method of unity and brotherhood was groundout by the language of recrimination. what had been once a call for equality for opportunity, a chance for allam americans to wk hard and get ahead was too often framed as a mere desire for government support, as if we had to agency and own liberation, as if poverty was an excuse for not raising your child, and the bigotry of others was the reason to give up on yourself. all of that history as how progress falls. that example was diverted. it is how our country remains divided. how does your book challenge what i think is a fairly accepted narrative about what wenta wrong in the '60s and th

i have visited many years during obama and post-obama and the living conditions have changed considerably for everyday cubans. i have many friends there now and i think that is what he asked that question. i had two things i wanted to hit on. the internet has been restored by the cuban government. i am able to communicate again on the internet and the remittances, 40% is given to the government. i sent money to help friends in cuba and they never did that. he got what he was supposed to get. in fact, we were able to use western union which has been cut by our previous president. the cuban government, up until the early 2020 rather, was charging an additional 10% to convert u.s. dollars but it did not apply to those sent by wireless. that 10% tax was eliminated in the early months of 2020. i just wanted to make those points. some of the information is -- host: before you go, how would you characterize the living conditions of the people now? caller: i have not been there since the pandemic but it was tough economically. they are getting by but food is scarce, terrible crowds of lines waiti

you see obama coming in at 10. he gets the perfect score of dealing with the issues of civil rights, but you are looking at somebody like obama who served two terms, was largely scandal free, got america out of the great recession, was able to kill osama bin laden, bailout general motors, and he is the first nonwhite male president we have had. he is a president of great significance. i think should he be number 10 or lower, he will always be seen as a significant president. i stress the two terms -- we have had good one term president's. george h. w. bush was only one term but he oversaw the goal for, the successful deliberation -- oversaw the successful double ration over kuwait -- he oversaw the successful deliberation over kuwait, the gulf war. he got attacked by pat buchanan from the right and a third party . bush did not become a two termer, so he does not rise as much. the first polling moment is did he get reelected or not? if the american people thought you did a good job, you get reelected. polk is a one

president obama's administration expanded the border barrier. i am in favor of technology but as long as we have paid for it and have contracts to complete the wall, i simply cannot understand any logical reason not to complete it. i am not a severe partisan to attack democrats. this strikes me as being nonsense. i cannot understand this. with regard to investing in root causes, i don't understand what you're referring to. are you suggesting that we should be able to invest to make sure that all of latin america gets rid of their dictators and their corruption, ends violence and if we do that, maybe there will be less people trying to get into the border? that's unrealistic step that's absurd. we cannot even do those things domestically let alone around the world. people want to come to this country and they always will. responsible for securing our order. i just don't get why you don't address this in the way that president obama did. please the barrier, use technology and have ice carry out the responsibility of moving people who are here ille

it can be very different from president barack obama's.cult is it to turn the internet on in cuba? i don't know. it is controlled by the government. there is one state run internet. they can turn it on and off. we saw president biden tell cuba to not crackdown on the protesters, and said it was their right to handle internal affairs how they want to do that. they continued to crackdown, ignored that call by the administration. i think you will see a division between the cuban government and biden administration that's not paying any mind to what's coming out of washington. >> a big difference between biden and obama when it comes to the view of cuba. joe biden born in 1942, remembers the revolution that ended in 1959 when castro took over. barack obama was born in '62 and has no memory. caitlin, what was your take away? >> the travel ban. german chancellor apparently asked today. he said they brought in members of the covid-19 to assess the situation. she said she got the same answer as the reporters. president biden said he is looking at

for obama, in fact, these aren't my words, maria, obama admitted that 90% of the people are there in house to carry out and be obama's third term. so you go back during that time frame, there was unmasking that was occurring. they were being leaked to the mainstream media back during iran nuclear deal and we know all of the unmasking that occurred of trump officials and we made that well known at the time and changes were supposed to be made in our intelligence agencies on unmasking and we don't know what is happening over at the nsa. we clear dye do not trust general who is under investigation by our committee on multiple fronts, most importantly that he politicized the agency by firing republicans or putting them under phoney investigations and then basically forcing them to resign and now you have the situation with the unmasking of american journalists and we are investigating that. i don't have anything at this point that i can say but the house republicans are running a real investigation. maria: we have politicization at the nsa, politicization at the fbi. congressman devin nu

>> yeah, that's a very unfortunate view that i have not encountered before, but you know, obama soundsike johnson and also frankly a lot like reagan with these ideas about a dependency kind of prevailing to the narrative that he is telling about this kind of lost moment or a wrong turn in the 60s. just on the king holiday, you know it's so interesting that by the 80s -- even the nonviolent civil rights protest is being valorize to and celebrated when much of the response to that nonviolent protest was police violence. german shepherd dogs being sick. the kind of police violence that i'm dealing with in response to the political rebellion also was the response to the nonviolent direct action protest that is being celebrated. so, the idea that somehow the riots were these kind of mass moments of criminality and they were examples of criminal behavior -- again, that sounds to me very much like johnson. after 64, after a 15-year-old high school student is killed by the policeho department, johnson makes theol same steps and moves that obama did. he said this isn't about civil rights protes

because what they learn from the obama era is that when you make a lot of noise about this, you get a lot of push back in congress. and that is what contributed to the slow down and the inability of the president brock obama, to keep his promise to close one tunnel bay. so things are being done a little bit differently in order to see this move more quickly. but as in the case of mr. nasir quickly, can still mean about 5 years. so not exactly hopeful or encouraging for many of these people. i think it's also important to point out that another reason these cases are taking so long to process is that many of them were abducted by the cia held in secret black sites for many years before they emerged in guantanamo bay. and as a result, the lawfulness of abducting people, keeping them in holding them without charge is being challenged by their lawyers. rightfully so. but also that is adding to the length of these individual cases being reviewed can be how could all whitehouse correspond? thanks very much. china was being accused of engaging in malicious cyber activity and leading the hack

former obama administration officials believes there should be a vaccine mandate. former hhs secretary under obama told "the new york times" "i'm trying to restrain myself but i kind of had it. we are going to tiptoe it around mandates. come on, i'm kind of over that. i want to make sure people i deal with don't have it so i don't transmit it to my granddaughter." with the variant also increasing an threat, the white house has praise decisions from private-sector entity and also said those are innovative steps. go forward and take steps that you feel are appropriate. speaking of private-sector entities, businesses making those kinds of mandate decisions. the white house also said this week they do not expect to issue any new guidance when it comes to mask wearing as the variance are increasing in threat but did say local governments should do as they see fit. >> thanks for breaking down the details, we appreciate it. let's bring in a "washington post" columnist in a fox news contributor so let's start with this. not tracking which americans are vaccinated in which

>> well, i think the president has had a time to review the actual policies under president obama. and all of the openings that president obama made which were one-sided unilateral in terms of concessions, showed themselves to create absolutely no change inside of cuba. the regime still arrested peaceful protesters. the regime still put political dissidents in jail. the regime still rationed the cuban people even as they had dollar stores bursting with food, but the cuban people could not get access to that unless they had access to dollars. so, the regime showed no change, but what it did do is profit dramatically by the revenues that flowed into the regime because the regime controls all tourism and all agriculture sales inside of cuba. raul's castro's son and son-in-law control the two major corporations, which are part of the cuban military. so the regime enriched itself. the cuban people never saw any benefit from it. so the result of that i think is the biden administration said that didn't seem to work, we have to think about what we should do in this regard. >> when we were

on top of that, barack obama and the biden administration, when they were in office, they came down to of texas to send an fbi team as well as u.s. attorney to investigate and prosecute a voter fraud scheme where cocaine was being used to buy absentee ballots. i will tell you this also, chris, and that is even democrats in the texas house of representatives, they agree that as it concerns mail-in ballots, that is an area where improving the mail-in ballot system is a way to achieve greater election integrity. so what texas is doing is we're making it easier to vote by adding more hours of early voting than we had in current law, but also making it harder to cheat with regard to mail-in ballots. chris: well, governor, let me ask you, though, about two other things that the gop bills would do. i want to put them up on the screen. they would ban 24-hour voting and they would ban drive-through voting. there was no allegation of any fraud in either of those. harris county, the houston area, employed both of those and more than half of the voters who showed up were people of color. so you sa

i thank you for the opportunity to say it's barack obama. to him as my brilliant beautiful president. there's no category in which he failed as far as i'm concerned. even though i always say the 2012 election days the greatest day of my life because he was reelected and he proved no matter what the opposition threw at him, and they threw everything. mitch mcconnell saying in 2008 my job is to make sure that barack obama is a one term president instead of saying i will work with our new president. i'm just so proud of him. i'm proud to be an american. i'm just proud of his accomplishments and i'm so grateful he spoke out in his words of wisdom during the most recent campaign. i thank you so much for this opportunity. host: under the category when asked how they managed to do the job advancing a vision and being able to set an agenda, barack obama, the former president coming in at 12 this time around on our survey. the top of that list, abraham lincoln. followed by george washington, franklin roosevelt, theodore roosevelt. ronald reagan round

when president obama was in power, the policy on cuba was warmed.nt trump didn't like that, he overturned it in 2017. let's bring in an expert on u.s.-cuba relations. >> massive amounts of development went into cuba to develop tourism particularly for american visitors, who were increasingly allowed to go there under obama. remember, he had his famous normalization policy. donald trump reversed all of that. you heard in the clip, a member of the public saying they have money to build hotels but not houses for us. that is an observation on the street, seeing hotels being built, which was supposed to accommodate a boom in tourism as a consequence of the change in american policy. actually, under trump, the policy was made many times worse than even before obama took over. as a consequence of that, the economy has worsened even more. which is why the cuban government is blaming america. we expected joe biden to return to the policies of obama. has not done it. he has sat on his hands for six months, and as a consequence, conditions in cuba have gotten

president obama eased _ their own failures. president obama eased sanctions - their own failures.was a flooring in relation there and resident trump reimposed them. and president biden came into office there was a slight anticipation, expectation if you well, that the thawing may begin again. what are these sanctions say about the tone of future cuban— us relations? the future cuban- us relations? the roblem future cuban- us relations? the problem is _ future cuban- us relations? the problem is that _ future cuban— us relations? tue: problem is that in future cuban— us relations? tt;e: problem is that in that future cuban— us relations? t"t9: problem is that in that time, the cuban regime also increased their repression of the people. so they also showed that they were acting in bad faith. i think right now, nobody knows what is next but we're all looking towards cuban people to see what they want to do next, how they want to protest and what difference they want to make for their own country. we are really following their lead and i think that's the right thing to do at this mome

i have visited many years during obama and post-obama and the living conditions have changed considerablyor everyday cubans. i have many friends there now and i think that is what he asked that question. i had two things i wanted to hit on. the internet has been restored by the cuban government. i am able to communicate again on the internet and the remittances, 40% is given to the government. i sent money to help friends in cuba and they never did that. he got what he was supposed to get. in fact, we were able to use western union which has been cut by our previous president. the cuban government, up until the early 2020 rather, was charging an additional 10% to convert u.s. dollars but it did not apply to those sent by wireless. that 10% tax was eliminated in the early months of 2020. i just wanted to make those points. some of the information is -- host: before you go, how would you characterize the living conditions of the people now? caller: i have not been there since the pandemic but it was tough economically. they are getting by but food is scarce, terrible crowds of lines waiting

we have watched what obama has done when he took that line in the sand and then when they crossed it,ersaries will become stronger, america will become weaker, that is what has transpired in that short amount of times. he is more concerned with allowing them to come after our companies through hacking than he is about making america energy independent, putting americans back to work, back to school, and back to health. >> sean: think you come appreciate you being with us and also this holiday, yet another weekend of bloody carnage and violence in america's democratic run cities for example over two dozen shot in new york city and chicago, at least 100 were shot, a whopping 18 shot and killed over the fourth of july weekend. where is the outrage? where the protests for all of these lives? do you know the names of any of the people that were shot? this is our american treasure, our fellow americans and without real accountability, law and order, safety and security, there is no pursuit of happiness. unfortunately, the situation on the ground is only going to get worse because we are als

continue to live with. >> that is a really unfortunate view that i had not encountered before but obama sounds a lot like johnson and frankly also a lot like reagan with this ideain about dependency probating the narrative that he is tellingtu about this moment or wrong turn in the 60s.ng just on the king holiday, it is so interesting that by the 80s even the nonviolent civil rights protest is being baller rights and celebrated when much of the response to the nonviolent protest was police violence german shepherd dogs being fixed on black kids, the kind of police violence that i'm dealing with in response to violent political rebellion also was a response to the nonviolent direct action protest that is being celebrated. , the idea that somehow the riots were the mass moments of criminality and they were examples of criminal behavior, that sounds very much like johnson because immediately after harlem a robson 64 after a 15-year-old high school student is killed by the new york police department johnson makes the same steps and moves that obama did he said this is not about civil rights

the white house physician from both president obama and president trump, dr. and congressman, let me start with you. donald trump took that cognitive test, and you told me that you passed it with a perfect score. 30 of 30. he told me it's a hard exam and you told me that you want joe biden to take one. what has been the response? >> none. i haven't heard a single thing and you're right, this is not a laughing matter anymore. i've been saying this since he was candidate, candidate biden. what aboutpa hypocrites? that self-appointed elites and academic medicine demanding that president trump have a cognitive test just because they didn't like the nature of his tweets, not because of any cognitive issues whatsoever. and now, they are completely ignoring this. every day we are being tested whether it's iran or china or hamas or russia or whatever it is, whatever on the global stage every single day and he's failing miserably. it really is at this point, we had to figure out what's going on. that's a symbol of power and authority and what it looks like in this part
