it is important rural america not be one party america. we started the one country project. it was to reintroduce the democratic party to rural america and rural america to the democratic party. host: do think over the course of the years the policies of the democratic party have fallen out of favor with rural americans, or rural americans themselves have changed their views? guest: i think it is the emphasis. it is not the policy. the economic policies of the democratic already are much more favorable to rural america. where we get into challenges is when this becomes about defunding the police or about transgender bathrooms for all the cultural issues. then rural americans say that is not something that looks like me. when rural americans vote strictly culture on these issues is when we begin to see serious erosion of democratic support in rural america. i think we have to understand that we have to do a better job explaining our position on cultural issues. it does not mean we cannot persuade a few people, but we also have to be much more aggressive on outlining our econo

it came to america in the early 1980's. -- and they came to america in the early 1980's. i father was studying at rutgers. they both came to america in the 80's. they settled in new jersey. that is where i was born. as i was writing this book, i thought about what their journey must have been like to come to america from india during such a challenging time for indians in this country. all of the steps they would both have to take to acclimate to this new home. especially my mother. she did not grow up speaking english and she did not have certain class privileges that others might enjoy in this country. to come to america and kaput the adopt a new way of life and create a culture in which i could have so many luxuries like i enjoy today. >> you are a food journalist profession and you actually teach the subject at university level. how did you find this path? mayukh sen: it was a jagged path. it was completely unexpected. i grew up -- i really wanted to be a writer going up. i wanted to be a film critic. i recorded old issues of entertainment weekly madman. pauline hale

if you want to defend america from the allies, america first is saying if you want to defend america, defend america. hoard america's resources for america first. don't give them to the allies. what i would like to do now is talk about some of the major issues. i won't talk about all of them. there are far too many because this is a widespread and varying debate. but there are certain key themes that i think are central to the debate between these two organizations. the anti interventionists, the america first committee, they basically make the argument that staying out of european wars is america's tradition. this goes all the way back to george washington. the united states should not get itself entangled in european affairs. it certainly shouldn't get involved in european wars. and this is a foreign policy that served america well. it did so for over 100 years, until the united states broke from that tradition in the 1917 and went into europe. that was a mistake and it's a mistake that should not be repeated. we have learned the wisdom of the founders. they were right to stay out o

this initiative is about betting on america, about believing in america, about believing in the american people. if you look at the history of the journey of this nation, what becomes clear is this: given half a chance, the american people have never, ever, ever let their country down. so let's get this done. let's move. folks, we have the most - we have the most talented workforce in the world. what are we doing? what in god's name are we doing? and, by the way, you hear these numbers - $3.5 trillion or $1.75 trillion. we pay for it all. it doesn't increase the deficit one single cent.

foreign policy toward latin america but when you compare that to looking at china. russia europe asia latin america always comes out to be the sort of orphan in those subjects the one dealt with the last and so i guess my question is given the legacy of american foreign policy in the region that has not put latin america 1st and foremost you know and you've talked about root causes a bit how do we have to square that and bring that around given the fact that we've never really been that good at latin american foreign policy. very good point steve in foreign policy cycles among scolar solving international relations the international politics one of the saying cease you know latin america is traditionally perceived us as the bought yog of the united states that's not the only reason why the u.s. you know considers it a secondary importance the key issue is we don't have nukes so if any of the countries in the region had nukes or states us in policy making cycles in washington we would go out i don't know if i would subscribe to then you know counseling any leaders in

i mean, is it possible because, i mean, i have friends in america, i have colleagues in america and i've spoken to them. and they said to me that the country is not as bad off as the media, and the politicians are saying it is. and in fact, that was really the less leading democrats at the end of trump's term, who started hammering all this down to the public. what do you think? i completely agree with your friends. this is a plan of the left wing. some of it is long term and some of it is desperate, frustrated response to the success that from pad. but i promise you, if you walk around ordinary america, go in and out of jobs, go to parks, meet people, you're not going to find anywhere near the level of division. and dispute that you see represented in the media every day and complained about by politicians every day, they are angling for political power to make change. and because of that, they're trying to convince us of something that is not yet true. i fear that eventually they will be able to push us over that line if nothing more than because demographics change as people get older

latin america just as recently as maybe 2 years ago. and he was commenting on that point . it was not being at that time, but it sounds like in a short 24 months. there's been a sea change. there's been a big change. why just suddenly explosion of interest. there was i think it's lightning finally coming online and being usable. peter was just down there, we were just with him in some on and brought him over to guatemala. and that's what we want between to do is to empower people to be able to get off. and it's, and so on. in terms of our big point, beach has done it. and just that one town, it has now spread to the entire nation to the point where politicians can no longer ignore this. they're having to explore, adopting a big point standard and dropping because of what's happening in big point beach. so we want to do the same for bottom on bitcoin lake in the plan. 300000 people living on the base and there with tons of family in the united states. how do we get them to save on their fees so that once they're transacting on lightning?

>> america's soul is an empty void. the most americans can see tomorrow is a cadillac. >> or a man walking in outer space. >> what has this got to do with jazz or the negro? >> america needs an immediate sense of values, it has borrowed from the negro in language and dress and rock 'n' roll to fill this need. >> i don't think we are wise enough to look to the negro yet. >> have we really looked at it all? >> not consciously, but with creeping shame, america is beginning to look to the negro for the answers to her problems. >> what is the meaning of the death of jazz? >> it is the first faint cry of the salvation of the negro through the birth of a new way of life. >> the salvation of the negro and the rest of america if america can realize salvation lies through the negro. >> then america needs the negro to teach us how to be american, right? >> where else does america's future image as a world power reside but in the dark soul of the negro, whose salvation has become in the world's watching eyes the vindication of amer

what will help america more? increase the educational standard of all americans so they have school from two years, three years old, four years old, five years old, we show if they're not putting daycare, but go to school, no matter the background, they catch up. 58% of them go to college. we know that now. we also know that if you give two years of free community college, you are in a situation where you are in the position where you have in your state and every other state in america, the last two years, all those credits are available to the state university and you get a four-year degree at half the cost or get a two-year degree and do which are able to do. it will increase the average income by over 20% for someone in america for the rest of their lives. so folks, the fact is, as i said, i am not looking to punish anyone. i come from the corporate state of the world, from delaware. more corporations are incorporated in delaware than every other state in the union combined, but guess what? i am sick and tired

i think that america's support to israel has more than just sympathy. it's the core that the religion is based. it's almost unrelated to a president, but it's important to know that we have more a role to play realizing the change beyond demography -- we have to do more in the public diplomacy and realize the difficulty that we see in the middle east and the majority strongly believe in that. when we talked about one conflict and that if we fix just one problem in the middle east, this is going to prevail, i think that 40 years after the resolution, and ten years after the arab spring, it's far more complete in the middle east. they are firing rockets to kill as many as possible saudis on the ground. when they get disintegrated has nothing to do with control over the west bank. so it is far more complex that we need to explain too much of the american society that whether it's churches, trade unions, all the elements are relevant.

"wall street journal" editorial board. there are about four million missing jobs since february, 2020 in 23 states with democratic governors. versus 1.3 million in 27 states with g.o.p. governors. even though there are only 15% more population. incredibly the missing jobs in california, illinois,

these people threatened america, they carry out attacks against america, the ones that are now going on, the trial is resuming after 500 days. the bottom line is we are still at work. these people have indicated their desire to attack the u.s. they executed attacks and they ought to be held and detained for as long as this process goes on. it will be interesting to see how this goes on, but a trial that lasts 20 years, i can tell you that justice will not be served through this process. i have no idea even for rules apply. these are just bad people. we need to keep them out of the system. they cannot be let free. they will attack us again. >> i want to focus the rest of this discussion on afghanistan and the disastrous withdrawal by president biden. we partnered with the taliban, a terrorist group. we know that the taliban continues to be aligned to al qaeda, that there is an al qaeda presence in afghanistan. we know that al qaeda leaders would taken refuge in pakistan and iran have returned to afghanistan. we know that there is a billion dollars in weapons in afghanistan -- $80 bill

but america is strong. nd.u nick: there will be talk of a new day in america. but will the biden presidency really be a panacea? the politics of this country are so sickly, the divisions so deep. the coronavirus has revealed so many american ailments. nick bryant, bbc news, new york. katty: it is an enormousromise , but the country really needs it. we were speaking about china earlier with james. with less than 24 hours in office, the trump administration has taken a parting shot across beijing. not on trade. secretary of state mike pompeo said it's policies on muslims and ethnic minorities in a region our crimes against humanity and genocide. what does this mean? let's bring in bbc's chinese service. why has the outgoing secretary of state on his very last day in office make this declaration at this moment? >> we understand there have been debates in the admin's patient about such determinations, but there was some objection from trump's economic advisers because obviously this would jeopardize the u.s.-china trade talks. however, mr. pompeo decided to announc

but it's time for corporate america . and the wealthiest one percent of records that just began to pay their fair share thanks the 1st thank jobs i have arguments with my friends in the democratic party i think you should be able to become a billionaire and a millionaire but pay your fair share a recent study shows that $55.00 in the nation's biggest corporations paid 0 federal tax last year those $55.00 corporations made in excess of $40000000000.00 in profit. a lot of companies also have a taxes through tax savings in switzerland remuda and the cayman islands. and they benefit from tax loopholes and deductions for offshoring jobs and shifting profits overseas it's not right we're going to reform corporate taxes so they pay their fair share and help pay for the public investments their businesses will benefit from as well thanks for going to reward work not just wealth. we take the top tax bracket for the wealthiest one percent of americans those making over $400000.00 or more back up to where it was when george w. bush

so is america? democracy is the country that's learning how to be a democracy, but it's not there yet. and wanted to make sure that my daughter would become a citizen of a democracy who is really engaged and not taking that democracy for granted. ah, how democracy in the ideal should definitely be one person when both in a simple way democracy is self governing. right. people choosing their own leaders, people being able to govern themselves that we're finding out that democracy requires the quality ah, with the development of technology in the development of a global system, it's becoming much clear how unequal we are and how far we are from the values that we claim to have with it's important to think about when we set that intention, right when we called our son democracy. and i think we spend the rest of our existence of the country a trying to get there with hope that the player with yes, the best buy. and i have spent a lot of time thinking and writing about the into war period in europe. i ne

all of america. that includes black, brown, native americans, small businesses, entrepreneurs in every region of the country. we will use a national network of manufacturers called the manufacturing extension partnership, that is in all 50 states and puerto rico to help government agency connect with new domestic suppliers across the country. this is a critical piece of building our economy back better and including everyone in the deal this time, especially small businesses badly hurting in this economy. the executive action i am taking also reiterates my strong support for the jones act, and american vessels. in our ports, especially those important for america's clean energy future and the development of offshore renewable energy, i will close with this -- the reason we need to do this is america cannot sit on the sidelines in the future. our competitors are not waiting. to ensure the future is made in america, we need to win not just the jobs of today but the jobs and industries of tomorrow. we k

that means all of us, america. we frame this moment for all of us, not just for george floyd. this is a victory for those who champion humanity over inhumanity. those who champion justice over injustice. those who champion morals over immorality. america, let's lean into this moment. and let's make sure that this moment will be documented for our children yet unborn, and they continue on the journey to justice knowing that the blood of george floyd will give them a trail to a more just america. a more just america where breonna taylor gets the opportunity to sleep in peace at night without the police busting in her front door. a more just america where ahmaud arbery gets to run free and not be lynched for jogging while black. a more just america where jacob blake and anthony maclean and walter scott and laquan mcdonald and all these other black men, terence crutcher, who was shot in the back while running away like daunte wright was just a week ago. because for some reason, black men running away from the police is

america is back 1st of all a slogan biden has been saying over and over america is back the transatlantic alliance is back sure enough the 1st visit by a biden official to berlin was something of a love in defense secretary lloyd austin tore up donald trump's plan to cut american troops in german bases and even announced an increase but while america is back is resonating here in europe in afghanistan it's the opposite biden has ordered u.s. troops to pull out this september many afghans now fear a taliban takeover biden always says that he is with the people of afghanistan they have been low to the american and nato forces control for 20 years and by withdrawing unconditionally from of kindness and the people there are being abandoned that afghan move could backfire for biden but he seems to have bigger fish to fry like russia and china his next message is for them america is tough i'll ask march 18th biden's top diplomats use their 1st meeting with their chinese counterparts to call them out on a litany of issues and wrong hong kong taiwan cyber attacks on the united states economic coe

in that format, guilt is what america, specifically what white america is supposed to go for its past. he last 60 years, we have made innocence of racism we have to infuse it with actual racial involving the development of focus on political correctness and social mr. biden and the left is an expert in always race theory signal of innocence. we are so innocent of racism, we practice this form of political correctness critical race theory. this whole confusion of social reform and morality created the power that the left had so the left simply says to everybody, you are immoral, racist, racist, racist, you are a sexist, you are a sexist, sexist. you are evil, associated with america's evil past. we, on the other hand, are innocent. we want to redeem america, we want to put it back together again, supersede all of these things so we create a vocabulary of critical race theory, enter sexuality, diversity and so forth that stand for the good, innocent of america's racial sins in the past and we have that vocabulary on every institution in american life. while ago, education was taken over

in america, anything is possible. like what we did with the vaccines a decade ago that laid the foundation for covid-19 vaccines that we have today. like we did with the interstate highway system, transforming the way we travel and developed. americans can visit relatives anywhere in the country, with just a family station wagon. businesses here in pittsburgh can load up the truck to get the product of phoenix. to this day, about a quarter of all of the miles americans drive each year on one of those original highways. imagine what we can do, what is within our reach if we modernize our highways. you and your family could travel coast to coast without a single tank of gas onboard a high-speed train. we connect internet wherever you live. imagine knowing that you are handing your children and grandchildren a country that will lead the world and producing clean energy technology, and will address one of the biggest threats of our time. that is what we will do. altogether, along with the american rescue plan, the proposa

you found america, you began america with the pilgrims. and that's how you can build into history all these turning points that allow you to move chronologically but assert origins at different moments. now, i told you before i was going give away my example. i gave my example a couple of weeks ago. 1643, does everyone remember now what the confederacy was so important in the 19th century that everybody remembered it, it was this turning point in history, the 1643 confederacy, and nobody remembers today? what happened in 1643? we talked about there two weeks ago. who united? who came together? what confederation? yeah? >> it was -- wasn't it like some of the new england colonies to fight against the native american -- >> correct. four new england colonies come together in 1643. they say we're going to unite for our common defense. of course this becomes in the 19th century one of the key turning points because it is one of those moments of union between the colonies that's prefiguring or looking forward to a much broader union of colonies

when we speak of america's priorities, the first must always be peace for america and the world. [applause] the major immediate goal of our foreign policy is to bring an end to the war in vietnam anyway that our generation will be remembered, not so much as the generation that suffered in war, but more for the fact that we have the courage and character to win the kind of peace that the next generation was able to keep. [applause] we are making progress toward that goal. the prospects for peace are far greater today than a year ago. a major part of the credit for this development goes to the members of this congress, who, despite their differences on the conduct of the war, have overwhelmingly indicated their support of a just peace. by this action, you have completely demolished the enemy's hopes that they can gain in washington the victory our fighting men has demand -- have denied them in vietnam. [applause] no goal could be greater than to make the next generation the first of the century in which america was at peace with every nation in the world. i shall discuss in detail

you can change america. if you haven't voted, vote! if you already voted i am asking you, one more day of making calls and safely knocking on doors. go to i double willvote.com/ga to find your polling location like you did in november. vote, vote, vote, vote for john and the reverend. in america as our opposition friends are finding out, all power flows from the people, from the people. that is our history, that is our tradition, that is our constitution, that is our democracy. politicians cannot assert, take, or seize power, power is given, granted by the american people alone. and we can never give that up. it is always the will of the people that prevails. so today, tomorrow, vote. make sure your voice is heard. do it for yourself. do it for your family. do it for your children. do it for your state. your country. for all those who have given up so much. think of all those who have given up so much to secure that right. do it for the country you love because i know you love this country. and the future you want to build for everyone

and so he knows america will eventually recognize this is his dying message to america. do you want to be defending slavery the way it soever it was defendable enslaved with european christians? >> one of the funniest things about that the claims in some book that was written 100 years ago. the tongue was firmly in t chee. now we have some questions coming, here is one. very pertinent to what we have been saying. how did literacy of the american people of all between 1760 and 1840. in other words how literate were we? there has to be a base year all of the news paper writing, letter writing is going to fall. >> it is a spectacularly wide spread among whites. female as well as mail. partly because america is a protestant culture. especially the americans, especially in new england. it is particularly puritan, even places like virginia is more cavalier new england is more a puritan mounted. if you are a protestant, you believe you have to readd the bible. and americans to read their bible some as late as andy jackson and i have good words to say about andrew jackson indivi

school has started in america. but many parents are not happy with the new covid results their children have to obey. so we sent jordan klepper down to hear these parents out in another episode of jordan klepper, fingerses the pulse. >> i'm in johnson county, north carolina. with marching with antimask protestors to what has become america's new thunderdome, school board meetings. north carolina parents are desperate to get their kids back into school. pull of packed icu's and covid cases in children four times what they were last year, new studies from the cdc are recommending masks as a way to keep in-person learning. but packed school board meetings and-- on the right are upset because putting on a piece of cloth is just too much. >> i'm against all mandates so from there i don't do whether it is mask, vaccinations, against it all. >> masks will never protect america. >> mask don't work, my child was suffering after wearing his mask for so long. >> what kind of issues. >> he had acne on his face from you know th

this is america. we are a constitutional republic we believe in private property right the we have unalienable rights we do believe in a color blind society. not critical this theory and critical that theory. this is america. where we're not ruled by one man, half whited signing executive order after executive order because he wants to be the greatest leftist in american history. this is america we're not ruled by 50/50 senate that ran through whatever it can to change our electoral system. and to change our boartd system or house of representatives with a ten votes margin smallest majority in a hundred years. they have no mandate to do what they're doing i've been saying this on radio since february 8th. joe biden is president because joe biden wants a historic legacy. and we are faced with two kinds of tyranny. the executive branch, we're faced with a man who believes in hypocrisy go big go fast whatever it takes. second amendment, i oppose it, i will sign executive orders to do what? to change the

what happens when we start to look at america's the future of america, not the future of the europe? that's the starting premise of the book. >> so what does happen? what are the distinctive features of the new america that are distinctly separate from the sort of european drama from the french revolution onward? >> obviously it before writing the book what really distinguishes america is the permanent temptation of fantasy, a virtual reality. in the bucket argued you could trace this temptation back to the very origins that even the pilgrims were escaping social and political reality as it existed in britain at the time and creating an alternative world, an alternative reality. and then you have that the route the movement to the west, the cowboy image. there's an argument i find very persuasive that socialism and communism in america because as possible to weave the constraints of capitalistic society and economy in just move west. the cabinet was a figure of escape. and then when the mass media, hollywood, disneyland in the 20th century, all that comes to the service, becomes attr
