at the time, george orwell wasbn writing about the rise of communism in far left thought. today with the rise of the hard left in america, we should keep orwell's warnings in mind andhaw learn to spot lies that are made to sound truthful during this pivotal time. now, lucky for you, we are here and we are going to help decode and translate the language of thes democrats and their media allies this campaign season. first up, what they're saying about virus strategy. >> they need leadership, they need a plan. >> i wish we hadadre a national plan. >> everyone is confused. this is the time we should be talking to one very clear, very consistent voice. >> where's the national strategy, where's the national leadership? it doesn't exist. >> laura: okay, translation. when they say "national strategy," they mean national lockdown. it is abundantly clear that they want to shut down the entire country until the virus either magically disappears on its own or until there is an effective state vaccine, which even dr. fauci has to say may never come. and think about cuomo for a moment.

. >> this is ultimately -- we are now in orwell territory. we don't like socialism, we believe in democratic socialism. but the deep inside of orwell is that even democratic socialism moves inexorably in the direction of erasing history and imposing tyranny. >> laura: thanks so much. great to see you. and on friday, adam silver at the root of all these inquiries of following. right now, the nba is currently allowing players to put pro blm on their uniforms. but no slogan in support of law enforcement here. espn's senior reporter, adrian wojnarowski, had toward. he has since been suspended. the leagues going to china doesn't stop there. the nba's online store was not allowing users to create custom jerseys that say "free hong kong" on the back. at the same time, they were allowing slogan such as "defund the police" and "beware of -." here's an exchange after he tried to make a free hong kong jersey. customer service it takes only ten digits and "free hong kong" is ten digits. he says this is not true. if i type in "free king kong," there is no

i'm a friend of the president and vice president and find a lot of people that have served their orwell. i support them and i do everything i can to work with them to make their job easier. finally in my capacity we work very closely with the white house on a wealth of public policy matters including the liflife issue on justice reform, immigration reform, many other issues we worked with so i have a great team and they are in the white house on a weekly basis to advance the public policy. >> host: at the highest level ever recorded in modern american political history, we got 81% of the vote, hillary got 16. i don't know that i've seen a valid test yet but had. depending upon the poet somewhere between 65 to 75%. and that is about where he was in the polling in the summer of 2016. we could have penned a mac and reopening the campaign. by and picks his running mate and we have the convention. i think that it will begin to be easy and i predict evangelicals will vote for the president an even larger numbers than they did in 2016. and for good reason given all that he has achieved he rich

if george orwell was still alive he'd probably say he warned us. welcome to the 21st century with cameras all around you'd better be ready for your close up. in the north bay, wayne freedman, abc 7 news. >> remarkable. join us tomorrow as we host an hour long roundtable discussion on the importance of allies in our communities, allies action a bay area conversation will air tomorrow at 4:00 right here on abc 7. please join us. >>> now to the latest on the coronavirus. today the head of the california hospital association carmella coyle offered a grim update and says the medical community is preparing to surge and with good reason. governor newsom announced that in the previous 24 hours california saw 11,694 new cases. that does include a backlog of cases from los angeles county. testing backlogs have spiked the state's daily new case numbers before but this is a record. in the east bay recent parties are blamed for a sharp increase in the number of uc-berkeley students testing positive for coronavirus. the school today said it had 23 positive cases

and if they could read not just 1984 but animal farm and understand orwell, who had been a prescient and was in the brigade in the spanish civil war when stalin decided to wipe it out. and then there was mussolini and hitler interesting he puts 1984 in britain. is not describing moscow. the tendency of the society will be to create a totally false story. and everything that doesn't fit the story and that's what these people are doing. should the suffragettes almost all of whom who believe in traditional america have the statues pull down because they were not adequately sensitive to 100 years later would emerge and then to create the framework that people could say their rights came from god. so anything less than a figure who advance the cause of human freedom. so what you're dealing with is a mob. and to set up patterns that are totally unacceptable. there is a 7-foot tall statue of lenin. some guy bought it when it was being thrown away. i don't object to lenin being there because that's a great opportunity to teach people what a monster he was and how many people's lives were des

wipe it out and that it didn't exist you memory hole it this is the classic orwellian thing read orwell and understand that the new york times he said once the dictionary definition of unprovoked it suddenly reads like whole pots sayings of anbar so when. cameras took over cambodia and the 3 and a half years of terror that the anger were these like secret group organization that you know brought a. about all these crazy slogans and scary ones that people. you know we're used to terrorize the population and indoctrinate them so we kind of have the same thing with this council culture as like to believe what i say say what i say do what i say and then you won't be counselled right at the new york times is starting to smell like this cheese under the hot lights of this production stinky. i don't know again they seem to have abdicated the role of journalism they are in the business of provocateur to or i guess is what you could say they they are filling that void left by alex jones i think matt comes up with the better explanation of what is actually happening here he says it's tragic that

if they could read they could read not just 1984 but they could read Ãbthey would understand what orwelld been actually in the brigade in the spanish civil war when stalin decided to wipe it out. he'd seen up close and then of course he had mussolini and hitler and it's very significant that he puts 1984 in britain. it's not describing moscow. he said, the tendency of the society will be to create a totally false story to then have a memory hold in which we put everything that doesn't fit in the story and we will reserve the right to the state to change the story whenever it wants to. that's what these people are doing. where does it start? where does it stop. for example, should the suffrage ask, probably almost all of them believed in traditional marriage. therefore the statues pulled them because they were adequately sensitive to what hundred years later would emerge as the gay rights movement. the idea that washington more than any other single person created the framework with in which people could say their rights came from god or the jefferson who actually wrote the words. these p

the fact is nobody wants to be the subject of a donald trump two minutes hate, to use george orwell'sn twitter. i think we will have to have, within the republican party, a significant conversation after november 3, especially if trump loses, which is at least a 50-50 possibility at this point, about the future of the party. that is one of the subsidiary purposes of my book in my mind. i don't -- i want to make clear trump does not represent the republican party. i will not vote for there are -- for the republican nominee because he is not true to our party. i think a lot of people -- lisa: the polls contradict that. the polls show that the republican party, by and large, has overwhelming support for trump and that is the reason why the republican leadership has, d to often than not, hewe trump's goals. what makes you think the party is different than what the polls are saying? mr. bolton: public opinion polls take a limited picture based on a limited question by the poster. do you support donald trump over the democrats? what i am talking about is the larger issue of what the party a

justifiably, we have seen video from the streets of portland reminiscent from scenes of george orwell's84. we know the president plans to expand this into chicago and other cities. why do you think there's not more outrage? >> reporter: i think there is a fairly big amount around the country. i don't think that the federal government -- that the president's re-election campaign may come out ahead at the end of this, but certainly the federal police, federal law enforcement agencies involved are being deeply harmed. >> garrett graff, thank you for joining us. >> happy to any time. >>> a u.s. civil rights icon is making his final journey home. john lewis's dramatic final crossing of the edmund pettis bridge. that's ahead. audible is my road-trip companion. it's kind of my quiet, alone time. audible is a routine for me. it's like a fun night school for adults. i could easily be seduced into locking myself into a place where i do nothing but listen to books. i never was interested in historical fiction before, but i'm obsessed with it now. there are a lot of like, classic and big titles tha

if george orwell was still alive, heed probably say he warned us. welcome to the 21st century.meras all around, you better be ready for your close up. in the north bay, wayne freedman, abc7 news. >> a fire station in san jose is moving due to soil erosion. the city is relocating. fire station number 8 from 17th and east santa clara street, a few blocks west, to 13th street. currently the station is right next to coyote creek. city officials say erosion does not pose an immediate threat, but they're worried about the fire station's long-term structural integrity. no date yet on when construction of the new fire station will begin. >> all right. one last check of the weather, and drew, lots of folks hoping for at least a little bit of a cool down. >> yeah, we're going to find some cooler weather moving in tomorrow. tonight the fog is returning as we speak right along our coast line, and we'll have some patchy fog first thing in the morning. numbers tonight, you look at lows, we'll mainly fall in the low 50s to low 60s as your starting temperatures for a monday. now to break down

mayhem we are seeing an attempt to enforce a social conformity that goes to anything foreseen in orwell. even white people kissing the feet of blacklight activists, defacing of statutes not only confederate statues but those of columbus, church of england, abraham lincoln, the unknown soldier. it shows what is going on. not only about george floyd. there is a specific and justice and truth of it is that there was a unified outrage from the left and righ the right concludd when the video first surfaced. it was an opportunity for the national unity before the identity socialistic can't work like that. they need racism so they took the george floyd killing and put on top of it a much larger narrative and the larger narrative isn't what you would think would be the normal narrative which would be that costs extra try to make good costs a that their view is let's have no costs because the cops are racists and the institution is racist and that's no surprise because the free market society is allied with white supremacy and it is racist and it's been that way since 1619 so you've got this rem

so to the riots, we see the attempt to have a social conformity almost anything foreseen in orwell with that reflection white people kissing the theater black lives matter activist not just confederate statues abraham lincoln and the unknown soldier, the shows you what's going on. it's not george floyd there is a specific injustice and the truth is there is a unified outrage from the left and right me included whenever surface. and opportunity for national unity it can't work like that so immediately they took up the killing with a much larger narrative than normal narrative is the bad copper cops is try to make more good cops that their view is no cops because they are based on --dash racist because the free market society is allied with white supremacy and america itself is structurally racist but you have a remarkable and gigantic narrative hooked onto the george floyd killing because if you disagree with the narrative you are accused of being insensitive to george floyd. this is a strategy that they force you to embrace the larger narrative even a are more than willing to go with th

even if you have not read orwe orwell, you can live it.il we decided enough is enough, making you angry or sad, you can decide when enough is enough. so katie, savannah chavez is the daughter of one of the slain officers, and she went on twitter and tweeted her sorrow with a hashtag of #bluelivesmatter which drew attack and mockery, including a checker who called the hashtag racists. if so she deleted it after warning her own dad. all of this seems like an inevitability in a climate where we paint people who try to protect our safety as the problem. >> katie: i think that's why the situation is so frustrating, because logic and facts, and morning of police officers who have made the sacrifice to try to break out a domestic dispute is somehow racist even though the police and the situation were minorities. this is a consequence of the current situation, the current rhetoric, and people giving into this idea, politicians specifically that it is okay to engage in policy decisions based on this mob mentality of a demand that they are given. po

orwell, early mid and the early part of the late phase of life . so the way to take this 14 percent increase in risk of death that associated with processed food and translate into some number we can all understand is how does that impact your life expectancy, you have to sprinkle it on a life table and see what happens. and when you do that, it turns out you're looking at a roughly one-year reduction in life expectancy. which iscounterintuitive . you think working percent, that's a lot but it turns out one year is less. i did talk to a demographer about this and i ran this by her and she said a year for you might seem like not that long because your 34. a year for my 75-year-old dad , that's a long time. especially if you've got grandchildren who want to see them alive over the next year. so it did bring home the point of like, life expectancy changes can be different depending on where you are. >> i'm going to argue that some processed food is just so delicious that it's a quality of life issue area that maybe i have an extra year and i'm enjoyin

they could read not just "1984," but they could read "animal farm," and they would understand what orwell, who had been a trotzkyite, was actually in the spanish civil war when stalin decided to wipe it out. so he'd seen up close and then the, of course, he had mussolini and he had hitler. and it's very significant that he puts "1984" in britain. it's not describing moscow. the tendency of this society will be to create a totally false story, to then have a memory hole into which we will put everything that doesn't fit the story, and we'll reserve the right of the state to change the story whenever it wants to. well, that's what these people are doing. you know, i mean, where does it start, where does it stop in -- stop? you know, for example, should the suffragettes, probably almost of whom believed in traditional marriage, therefore have no statues pulled down because they weren't adequately sensitive to what a hundred years later would emerge as the gay rights movement? the idea that washington, who more than any other single person created the framework within which people could say t

just finally, we have seen video from the streets of portland reminiscent of streets from george orwell's "1984" and we know the president intends to expand this into chicago and other cities. why do you think there is not more outrage? >> well, i think that there actually is a fair bit of outrage. i mean, you are seeing a number of different court cases come up. you're seeing other state and local leaders around the country reject this type of operation in their own communities. and i don't think that the federal government -- that the president's re-election campaign may come out ahead at the end of this, but certainly the federal police, the federal law enforcement agencies involved are being deeply harmed. >> garrett graff, thank you so much for joining us. appreciate it. >> happy to any time. >>> and coming up, the final day of england's premier league season brings suspense, celebration and despair. we are live in london. that's next. want to brain better? unlike ordinary memory supplements- neuriva has clinically proven ingredients that fuel 5 indicators of brain performance. memor

you know, i'm reminded of a famous line from the author george orwell during world war ii saying that because there was no choice whether to fight fascism, because the war was under way whether you looked it or not, that to be a pacifist under those conditions was to de facto side with the fascists. and this that context, he wrote a memorable line that goes, pacifism is objectively pro-fascist. that line has been cited and repurposed throughout the years, often misused and abused. but right now it seems fitting. the battle against the virus is not a choice. we can't opt out of it. so if you take the steps that president trump is taking, not just refusing to combat the virus, you're activity taking steps that will make people sick. you are objectively pro virus. for instance, they've been dropping some of the precautions at the white house like temperature checks because they want to get back to the appearance of normal. they're calling federal workers back into the workplace where is they don't have to be to make people think we're over the virus. they're doing big events, like sendin

i talk about it, resisting -- george orwell talked about words that do your thinking for you. i resist those kinds of words, they try -- i talk a little in this book about not wanting to use the word abusive to describe the relationship. it is that kind of word to me that simplifies something very complicated. i would rather look at the complicated thing but what i wanted to do in this book was examined some of these questions that i wrote about in a much more polemical, argumentative way outside of that political framework and that argument and the polemic. not that i'm rethinking things i wrote before, not that i am re-canceling or changing my previous opinions but i wanted to write in a different register. i have become less interested and a lot of us have in the kind of political generalizations, there is something predictable about this kind of politics in the way these things get talked about and i want to take those questions about power and look at them outside of those arguments so i think i brought more, i think the notebook form allowed me as you said to bring my un

nobody wants to be the subject of a donald trump two minute hate to use george orwell's idea. have athin the republican party significant conversation after november 3, especially if trump loses, which is at least a 50-50 possibility, about the future of the party. one of the subsidiary purposes of the book in my mind, i want to make it clear, donald trump does not represent conservative philosophy or the republican party. he is an anomaly. i will not vote for him or their republican president rouhani because i do not think he is true to our philosophy. he is true to donald trump alum. i want to break in, the polls contradict that. the polls show the republican party by and large has overwhelming support for president trump, and that is the reason republican leadership has to histen than not hewed ideas and goals. what makes you think the republican party is different from what president trump has put out? >> because republican polls take a limited picture-based on a theted question by pollster. do you support donald trump over the democrats? what i am talking about is the lar

has been demolished over the past 20 years by exceptional scholarship from woody houlton and robert orwell to robert parkson on just how concerned the revolutionaries were with slaves as an internal enemy or as soldiers on their side. the second pushback has been that, after all, the revolution led to a contagion of liberty that made it possible for americans to think critically about slavery, to at least want to end it. and maybe even imagine racial equality. this second argument has been , byced, if not obviated historians who have impure realized the debate about slavery and pushed it back in time. the radicalism of the revolution is no longer the main explanation for the rise of anti-slavery. over empire and the controversy over slavery were bound up over both sides of the atlantic from the beginning , as others have argued. and that realization is part of what is leading to creative attempts to re-periodize what we mean by the american revolution. two examples, gary nash, in his unknown american revolution, ends the story in 1784 and 1785, because he feels like the real radicalism was

it's like an early version of george orwell's 1984 up is down, war is peace, freedom is slavery , ignoranceews speak and it's crazy and what this article does in time magazine what they talk about, from the very beginning she makes a bunch the author of this article makes a bunch of claims that are totally untrue. she says in the real-world tolerance for law enforcement acting with impunity it is erod ing. law enforcement is never something we tolerated never will. calls to defund the police have gone mainstream. no they haven't. look at seattle's chop zone look what happened there. look at the crime statistics in new york city and then hollywood and cops and you can destroy that in one just a list of title s. training day, the departed, the wire, black clansmen, ram barack obama, the list goes on and on because a bad cop is a great villain because they're not supposed to be bad so this stuff all just drives me insane, and i promise you that superman, i wouldn't today be allowed to say truth, justice, and the american way. ainsley: oh, my gosh you're right. you're absolutely right but if yo
