ron: it is a fair question. first, one of the objections to infrastructure has been by some in congress, you cannot show us how to pay for it and we want to remove the objections. the core of this is that for decades, this country has failed to make this investment. we want to strip away any excuses. the second thing i would say about corporate tax reforms is they are a way to pay for if that is something members are concerned about. we also think they are good policy. the idea that some big corporations pay no taxes at all is not fair. we need to fix that. idea corporations get a tax break and are tax a set of's to move jobs overseas is wrong. -- tax incentives to move jobs overseas is wrong. they will make our country more competitive. they will create jobs in this country. they will reduce the outsourcing of jobs to other countries. we think it is a good policy. ryan: in some ways you are sympathetic to that argument because these tax hikes on their own are good policies. not like you're rummaging through the

and this is just what ron desantis and his experts were talking about. but, the thing about ron desantis is because he didn't do what all the lockdown merchants did, he basically listened to experts and used common sense to empower his floridians with information so that they could make up their own minds about what level of risk they were willing to take and his priority was to keep the vulnerable safe. particularly elderly people. and so, even though florida has an enormous elderly population, the death per capita in florida of elderly people was way below what it was in other states, especially in new york where governor cuomo took the opposite tact. so what youtube is doing is just -- it's straight out offerwell. oforwell. rendering desantis an unperson. is he not the only one. not just youtube. you saw "60 minutes" the other night did a comprehensive hit job on ron desantis. all the media are so invested in proving that florida was wrong that ron desantis was wrong because that makes them look like fools and liars for the entire pandemic. and they d

ron desantis has committed three sins in the eyes of the media who were ultimately democrats. number one, committed the initial sin of winning. he was trailing in the polls, they were all pulling for andrew gillum the democrat down there in 2018, so from the very get-go, a lot of people wanted to take him out and he has done a very good job on covid and has proven them over and over again wrong in a lot of very big things and that frustrates them and then finally, he is in my view one of the people who is pretty well situated at the moment to unite the republican party from very pro-trump people to trump skeptical people like myself, a lot of us really appreciate what ron desantis is doing in florida pair that's a dangerous combination for the left in their grip on florida. many of them are soldiers for the left. that's what we are seeing, those three factors conspiring in those explain why ron desantis is constantly in the crosshairs. >> emily: kennedy, your thoughts? to make this manufactured outrage is trained at the wrong thing. if you are cbs and mad that more people were

rick, why is ron johnson so synced up with russian disinfo, knowingly? >> i don't know the answer to that. by the way, nicole, i'm so glad to be back. i've missed you and you've been doing a fabulous job. it's a different era now. >> thank you. we're happy to have you. >> i don't know the answer to that question, and i don't even know if the premise is correct. i mean, one of the things that we saw in 2020 as opposed to 2016, where in 2016, the russians had a troll farm in st. petersburg and a bunch of young people pretending to be somebody else on social media. what they did in 2020 was to use kind of high-powered influencers and use journalists who were maybe sympathetic to them or didn't understand they were working for the russians to get narratives out there, and one of the things that we saw in the trump era, you know, and i've talked about it before on the show, confirmation bias, people believe what they want to believe so folks like ron johnson or others who doubt the fbi or doubt the mainstream narrative or believe the trump lies are looking fo

he is coming to the defense of ron desantis here and says he's ashamed of the 6060 minutes piece. lesson. >> i was the one that sat in the meeting and i was the one that asked for publix assistance and to not have that included was a real experience, it's important to have the truth out in the public sphere so for me i left this experience really does disheartened. and perhaps that's why we can put the gallup poll up on the screen there. we show that media trust is plummeting for republicans and decreasing among independent voters as well. >> it seems the latest example of a news organization trying to do a hit on a prominent republican governor. the media have had it in for ron desantis for a long time, and it's reckless indifference to the whole pandemic. he said trump ally and has that ability to hit back at the past. as far as what just play to come up those comments by the democratic mayor are devastating to the reputation of 60 minutes. he said he sought out the program and, what does that tell you. and not the governor's office that was responsible for the cutting video wit

the big winner in this whole story actually is ron desantis. because eight, the under -- it medius out to get a bit also shines a spotlight on the job he's doing for there's plenty of room to criticize ron desantis for other things he's done. no politician is perfect. kennedy: he has got plenty of time to screw up. >> like suddenly more time but ron desantis. too far for who have heard his name and never laid out an argument disguised action making a lot of sense, colby hall thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. so we were coming up chuck schumer says he is now pushing a plan to legalize the brief. there's one big hurdle president biden what is it going to take to get sleepy joe on team weed? my memo is next. kennedy: champions of freedom rejoice. you have an unusual ally in your midst. chuck mcgillicuddy pre-that's right set of majority leader chuck schumer declared a new battle against the war on drugs but he is all in on decriminalizing and possibly legalizing cannabis at the federal level. this is a night shift. politico, joe biden he

size of the opportunity, then the market caps of these companies looks a little more reasonable >> ron, what kd r what all companies are worth a pretty high price today but when you look at the size of the market of crypto, i think they're analogous. >> what convinces you that coinbase is the google of crypto and not the yahoo! it is early. yahoo! did well for a while. there was lots of competition and better ideas we have square and robinhood, a lot of companies, established finance companies piling into the crypto area, what sets coinbase apart >> well, what really sets coinbase apart is it is a crypto only company it's very focused on providing crypto consumer products worldwide. all these other companies, crypto is an add-on. so coinbase is what we call a crypto first company and that focus is what is making them a market leader. the brand that they have built, you know, the power of brand, you can never put a price tag on and coinbase already has a great reputation and a great brand with consumers it focuses on delivering a user-friendly product that makes it easy for consumers to

unfortunately, ron's professor who was reisman, i forget his first name. david reisman author of the lonely crowd he tried to argue back with we all so had the comments that reesement had made on the paper and he tried to argue ron out of his position. it was it was upsetting to read but you know kent's going to tell you a little more about the paper now. yeah, first off ronnie was blau was really a nice guy. we all liked them and as you know when college kids have to do a paper you just have to do a paper. so we were helping him out to do his paper and we're sort of kind of amused by it because his first suggestion was that he do a paper on the social life of the freshman negroes at harvard in our class and it was suggested that he would interview us during the week and then go out with us on the weekends to parties and take notes and and observe them like that. i mean the problem with that was that if he had chose to i mean he would have. perhaps gotten a couple of paragraphs given the dearth and the lack of social life that we had and i'll tell you abou

joining us now, ron brownstein. given that public opinion, why are so many lawmakers reluctant to lean into that? >> first of all, good to see you in the afternoon, alisyn. >> thank you very much. >> look, there is a serious partisan divide here. in fact, the denial of the existence of systemic racism in any segment of american society is one of the defining beliefs of the republican coalition. we've seen over the last years significant movement in the public overall in the share of people who say police killings of unarmed black men are part of a pattern. the number who say that has gone up significantly, but it hasn't changed among republicans. 80% of republican voters say it's not part of a pattern. it's isolated incidents. it goes along with the polling saying three-quarters of the discrimination against whites is now as big a problem as discrimination against minorities. and within that point of view, within that coalition, i think republican -- the number of republican legislators are going to move toward a po

in ron johnson's case. in cruz and hawley's case it's a bit more complicated than johnson who's speaking his mind. >> with cruz and hawley we know they're running for president, we assume they are. josh hawley made a comment the other day, he was the only senator who voted against a hate crimes act that was supposed to be designed to protect against hate crimes, particularly against asian-americans. he said, it's too broad. my view of it is it's dangerous to simply give the federal government open ended authority to define a whole new class of federal hate crime incidents. christina greer, he was even a standout amongst republicans for taking this position. >> yeah, but, you know, depending on what's going on in his state, that will actually help him in a primary vote. keep in mind, these people are thinking about how to get re-elected and so something like that, you know, definitely goes with, you know, the trump believers who believe that the government has far too much oversight, far too much power and t

ron johnson, ceo of and joy. thanks so much. we have been listening into the apple earnings call, as we were talking to ron. some more headlines coming out. tim cook saying he believes apple is in the early innings with the apple watch, the apple -- that apple tv plus is going very well. they are not going to be releasing subscriber numbers for apple tv plus any time soon. they are facing constraints from the overall chip shortage. i said earlier that they would be seeing shortages of the mac and ipad. now more color there that that is in part because of the chip shortage. tim cook also saying the iphone 12, which is the latest model, the most popular of all new models, so far. strong performance of the iphone 12 pro. a lot more headlines to come. we will keep covering this. don't turn away from bloomberg television. we will keep on apple earnings as the numbers continue to rollout. that does it for this edition of "bloomberg technology."

have we seen a more polarized time to see democrats jump across the aisle to defend ron desantis who could be the 47th president of the united states if he gets a nominee for the republican side in 2024, they are even defending him at this point. when you go through the numbers if i may what the end result is, because cvs called this chaotic, the vaccine rollout. but right now what we are seeing is that an 800 location, they are in 2% of seniors in the state, or cases are now down 80% over 65 when you begin at the end of the year to the end of march. so it is working, but 67 percent of those over 65, seniors and the state have been vaccinated at this point. when you consider that the polls show about 30% of the country does not want to get the vaccine or does not want to get it right now, this appears to be a success story if you just look at the wrong numbers that 60 minutes failed to provide during that piece. >> john: i thought it was interesting that pointer weighed in on the extent that it did. with former president trump out of the picture it seems that liberals and mainstream
