All and got a b former president s signature accomplishment. Who loves us bill . Doesnt have hope becoming law . Congressman, thanks for coming on. Like a lot of people paying attention, and been spending the day figuring out what this bill says. At some of it is good to some of it i dont fully understand. Its been seven years, is this the best congress can produce after promising to replace obamacare was Something Better . This is the first step, there are other steps we have to get through. This is what were doing and reconciliation. This is what the first bucket looks like, weve still got two buckets left before we have our final product. Very important part of the repeal process. Weve got to do something. Obamacare is imploding. This is something that responsible people and members of congress, we understand that we have to rescue health care and thats what were trying to do. Tucker i think most people agree with you and thats why republicans control both chambers of congress and the majority of governorships and the state legislators and that the white house, in part because they told their voters this is a disaster its never gotten a majority support, were going to give you Something Better. The question remains wise at the multistep process . Whys it so disorganized, why wasnt it ready to go a month and a half ago . It has been ready. We rolled out our better way plan, and we had the major ideas of what we want to do. We want to have more accessible, more affordable patient centered health care. Im the only pharmacist currently serving in congress. I was a health care professional. I know how personal health care is, i know how important it is to people. Its important we have competition and of choices in health care, right now we dont have that with obamacare. Just this week in tennessee we found out were going to have 16 counties dont have any choice whatsoever. Tucker thats clearly bad, i dont think it answers the question after seven years why its not fully ready to go, lets get to the specifics here. The individual mandate is very unpopular, polling has showed that consistently. This is rand paul assessment of the bill. It keeps the individual mandate but makes you pay Insurance Companies, not the government. So theres still a requirement to buy insurance. Not at all. What were doing instead of penalizing people or taxing them for not having insurance, what were going to do is were going to reward them with a tax credit for having insurance. I respect what hes talking about there, its the refundable tax credits. What thats intended to do is make sure those people who dont necessarily benefit from a tax credit that they can get the tax credit and automatically by insurance with integrated thats what we intend for that to do. Tucker theres no penalty at all, if im what used to be called a free rider i dont feel like getting insurance and continue to go to the emergency room for my health care, theres no penalty at all for me. Theres not a penalty but what were going to do again tucker theres no extra cost. Except you dont have insurance. Were not trying to be punitive here, were trying to reward and empower people thats the key. It tucker i get all that but heres the central problem with obamacare try to tackle i think it did a bad job but its still a problem. The older segment of the population consumes the overwhelming majority of health care dollars. The youngest segment doesnt want to buy insurance because they perceive that they dont need it and most of them actually dont. You need to get the healthy to pay for the sick in order for it to work hence the individual mandate. This bill doesnt address that problem at all . Unlike obamacare, we dont want to discriminate. Were not going to. What were going to do it again is empower people. We feel like people are able to make their own Health Care Choices are able to do a better job than this cookiecutter approach that washington, d. C. , things we know best and we can tell you what you need in health care. That simply is not working. Tucker if my kids or anyones kids decide im 27 years old, i can no longer bite along with my parents insurance policy, i dont feel like getting insurance. The government has nothing to say about that . No one is going to force them to do that. Thats been the punitive nature. Tucker i want to be clear on it because theres a lot of debate on what the legislation actually says. The ban on Insurance Companies incriminating against those with preexisting condition stands as does the ban on lifetime limits the Insurance Companies impose on patients. How was it insurance exactly if we are requiring Insurance Companies to ensure people whose policies they are certain will lose money . Thats not really insurance commits something else. A no, listen, the Insurance Companies are going to be a big part of this. We got to see what products theyre going to come out with end of those products are going to be important into what the market will bear and what the market needs. Im sure thats what they will come out with. Tucker but you cant run an insurance company. Its a bet that youll pay more to them than they will pay you in the end of it its based on a wager that they make, thats what insurance is. If the government says you have to take people on whom you know you will lose money, then by definition those Insurance Companies need subsidies or they fail, right . One of the biggest all words of our finest medicaid reform. This isnt called obamacare, it should have been called obama cade. They should have been added through medicaid expansion, its never intended to be for ablebodied adults, it was always intended to be a safety net for those who needed the most, the age, the blind, disabled. Instead it turned out to be through obamacare for ablebodied adults. We forgot to get medicaid back. Weve got to pass the responsibility and partner with the states. They can do a much more efficient and effective job then we can do. Tucker theyre pretty good at police and the federal government, ive noticed. If you talk to any governor or anybody involved with medicaid dell state noncitizens account for a big proportion of spending on medicaid. Its not a small thing at all its not some rightwing hobbyhorse, its a real thing. What does this legislation to prevent people from taking advantage of the largess of the government . What this legislation does come of those people wont be getting tax credits. Those peoples arent filling out tax forms and they are not filling out to get a tax rebate or anything so theyre not going to be benefiting from any kind of tax credit at all. Tucker federally but they can still use the state medicaid, right . People here illegally cannot take advantage of this program. I think its incumbent upon the states to make sure that doesnt happening. Tucker theyre not going to prevent illegals from using this, is that okay . Not in my mind. Tucker the legislation attracts it, thats what i mean. Not that im aware of. It doesnt leave up to the states to be monitored by the states. Tucker obamacare taxes are still in here and not all of them will be repealed, the bulk wont be repealed until 2018, why is that . One of the things that we promised is a stable transition. Mack. In order to have that, weve got to make sure, everyones make sure, they expressed to me how concerned they were about to do. I understand that health care is personal, we promised were not going to yank the rug out from underneath anyone. In order to do that, weve got to have a glide path if you will, a stable transition. Max. This didnt happen overnight at psycho to change overnight. Tucker what does this cost . And how many people will lose their coverage as a result . Two things, we havent gotten the cost estimates back yet from the cbo. Tucker of course it hasnt been scored officially. Youre not going to release Something Like this to the public without giving some sense of the cost. Tucker we feel like we can make it over a period of time, we feel like we can bring bolt down health care costs. Tucker by how much . That remains to be seen. If we increase competition, if we increase choices, if we increase patient responsibility, then we will it tucker i dont mean to be a jerk about it or pressing too hard, this is the story of the day. Youve got to give us some sense of what its going to cost, where the money is good to come from, whos going to lose coverage. Your rolling it out today, whats the answer . The answer is were going to create a market in health care thats going to be much more competitive, much more choices come up patient centered. Thats going to create a market thats going to be much more affordable to people . Tucker how much more . That remains to be seen come i cant a figure. Tucker when nancy pelosi says a lot of people are going to lose her Health Insurance because of this my responses just the opposite, i think people are going to have access to health care and Better Health care and theyre going to be empowered. Tucker so people are not go to lose their Health Insurance . It will be accessible, they will have the opportunity to have health care, i can assure you. Tucker can you see why this makes people nervous . You roll it out with any detailed . Im not against it i just ought to know the details are. I understand, thats why we want to make sure we have a stable transition. Max. Max. To make sure they can last through the transition period. Tucker fox news alert for you. The state of hawaii has announced it will challenge the Trump Administration revised executive order, the one that blocked travel from six nations mostly the middle east, thats a lawsuit which be filed tomorrow is the first of what will likely be many challenges to the new order which is designed to better withstand legal scrutiny. Well keep you updated as we get more details. Up next, its the age of faked scandals as well as fake news, democrats say president Trumps Campaign was somehow coopted by russian intelligence, theyre not too specific about it but they believe it. President trump says he was wiretapped by president obama, he doesnt have evidence for that either. If both of those scandals still exist, grace will be here to tell us whats going on.

Tucker much like members of diluted cult, today democrats in congress are demanding a special counsel to investigate claims of russian interference in the 2016 election, even though the night is no evidence of any criminal interference has ever appeared, to put it clearl clearly. Similarly, the Trump Administration will not retract its claim that president Obama Wiretapped the campaign or offered any evidence that it happened. Were joined by fox news senior political analyst, brit hume. So if youre able to drowned out all the noise surrounding this russia story, whats it really about at its core . If you step back from it a little bit, you look at all thats generated here. We have a congressional investigation going on by the Intelligence Committee and perhaps other committees as well. We have an attorney general that has recused himself from any investigations involving this matter. We have the calls as you just pointed out for the appointment of a special prosecutor or special counsel to carry out a supposedly independent investigation of this whole matter. When you boil it all down it comes down to two parts. One is russians attempt to interfere in the president ial campaign, there is no evidence they interfered in the election itself and the activities that take place surrounding that. I think there is some indication the russians did try to influence the campaign, most conspicuously by John Podestas emails that were hacked and leaked to the public, most of which were embarrassing, theres no real sign they had any decisive effect on the campaign. Thats part of it. The other part of it is the notion that there is collusion between the Trump Campaign as you pointed out and the russian russians. There is as far as i can see absolutely no evidence to that effect, none whatsoever. There is evidence there may have been some contacts between People Associated to the Trump Campaign and some way and russian officials, no evidence it was improper or inappropriate or related to campaign activities. We have an investigation which is rooted in something of which there is no evidence. If similarly as you point out, the president s made over the weekend in his tweet that obama ordered him wiretapped or headed wiretapped as he put in his tweets, theres a tremendous stir, the media are pressing very hard to get the Trump White House to answer for this claim that the president made for which there appears to be no substantiation. In the meantime, the media are covering very serious and sober faces this whole set of inquiries that are going on into this possibility between the collusion between the Trump Campaign and the russians which as i say and you pointed out there is absently no evidence its a remarkable feat of political alchemy by the Democratic Party and friends in the media to turn it nothing into something. Tucker there are legitimate criticisms for how the administration has behaved this just isnt one of them. Russia is a will country it with Nuclear Weapons in the population come as a player in the world and especially europe. Whats the effect of all this onrush of the actual place and our relationship with it . This seems to be on the irrelevancy that may become an obstacle in relations with russia. It doesnt seem to me to be pretty clear that part of the suspicion about this that has been raised and thats all it is, is a suspicion is rooted in the fact that President Trump had said during the campaign some other kind of things about Vladimir Putin and suggested more than once that he could establish a working relationship with putin in which we would be allies in the fight against isis and perhaps other things as wel well. That proposition that there can be this alliance seems to be somewhat in tatters right now, you have this u. N. Ambassador more more than once very critical of russia as far as we know with his approval. He has set himself as well that he doesnt know if he would be able to have a Good Relationship with Vladimir Putin, he thinks he might not be able to but he might be good if he did. It all seems innocent to me, the question that arises is how do we deal with russia and the problems that russia causes around the world especially in europe . That remains a wide open question, that remains in the hands of people like rex to listen and at James Madison and people at the cia, mike pompeo, and so on. If i dont think there is yet any reason to worry that there might be an inappropriately soft relationship between President Trump and Vladimir Putin, i dont think theres much of a relationship at all at this stage. Tucker really quickly, to the wiretapping question. We know that people around the trump were surveilled by the u. S. Government, the president is in charge of the cia. They are his employees, he is their what prevents the white house from getting to the bottom of this pretty quickly and presented the evidence . Heres a couple things to remember about this. This strikes me that such wiretaps as there were were not related to some domestic investigation they were a Foreign Policy matter, a National Security investigation. That requires a warrant from the socalled Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court. It has to look at the possibility that there is probable cause and then issue its it. Such warrants are not to be issued except in the rarest of circumstances against citizens of the united states, which does not preclude the possibility that in intercepting the phone calls for an example of the Russian Ambassador in washington, the conversations with people close to donald trump might have occurred, as we believe we know they did in the case of general flynn who then proceeded to mislead that the Vice President about those conversations. The reason we know about them is there had to have been surveillance of the Russian Ambassador and general flynn caught up in that. We know that happened and we know there was probably a criminal leak of that information which is why we know about it. The idea that a president would be able to cause a wiretapped to occur with it illegally not supposed to occur without the permission of the court seems a touch of farfetched and that theres certainly no evidence that president obama because of this to happen. There are people who think that he gives a wink and a nod to the right people and these things would not go on without his knowledge, i dont think thats necessarily true. I think this kind of thing can go on without his knowledge at least up until the point when intelligence is obtained thereby, which is presented to him in the form of an intelligence report. These agencies operate not entirely on their own and their responsive to him, but hes simply i dont know of a case where a president has ever been known to order a wiretapped. Tucker brit hume joining us life. Wikileaks may have done more than any organization leicester to destroy the Clinton Campaign thanks to their release of the massive trove of Democratic Party emails. Theyre trying to claim another scalp at the cia, were joined by trace gallagher. Unlike the Edward Snowden leaks back in 2013 that revealed the National Security agency was in fact spying on average americans, todays document dump by wikileaks isnt about gathering info on americans, its about the tools and tactics being used by the Central Intelligence agency to break into and circumvent various communication technologies. Experts have studied the leaked documents say the cia along with other u. S. And foreign agencies found a way to hack into phones that use googles Android Technology giving them the ability to collect a voice and text message data from message and apps like telegram and signal. This cia was able to hack devices prior to encryption being applied. Google is looking into the matter. Its interesting that one cybersecurity expert in california has said it appears that cia hackers would cover their tracks leaving electronic trails suggesting the hex came from iran, china, and russia instead of the united states. It also appeared that u. S. And british intel agencies developed a way to take control of televisions connected to the internet making it appear the tv was off when in fact it was recording conversations in the room appeared wikileaks admits the documents came from within the cia and that is a problem, listen. I just spoke to a former cia officer who told me this was really bad. He said there would be a serious reckoning within the cia and he seemed to be surprised he said he would be surprised if people didnt lose their jobs over this period its no secret the u. S. And its allies and adversaries are all trying to figure out ways to exploit the flaws in new technology, todays leaks are just laying that out for us in detail and wikileaks founder Julian Sanchez said there is more to come. Tucker you can bet on that, trace gallagher. Last week protesters ruined a speech by Charles Murray at Middlebury College.

Some professors are fed up with this. People using violence to silence ideas, longtime english professor at middlebury, ask for coming on. Thank you tucker its good to be on your show. I doubt im just guessing you agree with Charles Murray i dont think youre a figure on the right. No. Tucker youre distressed about the unwillingness for students to disagree, youve come up with a list of principles, they were great. Say nice things, go ahead. Tucker its true, only by a contest of clashing viewpoints do we have any hope of replacing opinion with knowledge. A protest to prevent campus speakers to communicate with her on the audience is a coercive act. It all seems like obvious points, great points. Are they not commonly shared on campus . Actually i think they are commonly shared. Dozens and dozens of my colleagues, ive been teaching for 41 years now and ive never seen anything like this before. Most of my colleagues i think agree with these basic principles of free speech. This is just free speech 101. Nothing i wrote with my great younger colleague Keegan Callahan in the literal sense l science department. We were horrified with what happened at middlebury last thursday and the shutting down of this speech by dr. Murray. We got together this week and said why dont we hammer out what are the basic principles of free speech . More or less for ourselves and lets circulated among the faculty and see if theres some agreement here. It took us only an hour to sit down and say in 1776, america fought the battle of free speech. If these are enlightenment values. Im kind of a freespeech fundamentalist and i believe that the function of the university is to provide a place where those of every viewpoint left, right, center, now the rainbow, theres so many on the right and the left, theres different opinions. I think a university if should be if nothing else a place, space where free discourse can happen, where ideas can clash, people can disagree. I think with such a amazing Inflection Point in American Culture right now. I think people are utterly fed up with the coarseness, the incivility of discourse in the united states. I think weve come to a point, this Inflection Point where we have to step back all of us who are rational human beings, whatever our political viewpoints, whatever candidates or parties we stand for and say to ourselves, what are the basic principles we agree on here . We organize ourselves as a nation. Couple hundred years or more ago this is a place where we talk freely about our ideas spread we set up these universities based on enlightenment principles and we supposedly adhere to them. I hope and believe that my own classrooms are place where students can challenge me and feel free to challenge me, they dont shut me down and i dont shut them down. Tucker im for that. If there was one point in here was so wise it stirred my heart. A good education produces modesty with respect to our own intellectual powers and opinions as well as openness to consider and contrary views. This is what is lacking in this debate is modesty. People believe their way is right, no one else can have an alternative view. Do you think modern University Life inculcates that modern stomach modesty in students . Obviously doesnt it i think its a problem. I think its why we have to go back to free speech 101 and what is the purpose of the universit university. I think inculcating modesty, why should we be modest . I have a lot to be modest about, i dont know that much, i dont know that much, you dont, i dont. I did a biography of robert frost a couple years ago, we all proceed on insufficient knowledge. I think you proceed, here you are im sure debating a Million People going over a lot of ideas, you proceed on insufficient knowledge come im not accusing you of that. Tucker i do, of course. I proceed in my life and insufficient knowledge. We have to be modest. I think we have to actually teach people modesty. Thats where we have failed. The problem is, were not seeing modesty anywhere in the culture very often. Tucker note thats the key to parenthood is raising children who know what they dont know. How many of your college assigned this, what percentage would you say cited . Id say were certainly up to a quarter weve left it open to march 11th or 12th and every day were getting another dozen or two dozen signatures. I forget what were up to now, but dozens and dozens and dozens of my colleagues. Whats so interesting when i looked over the signatories, i saw young people, old people. I saw people of color and white people. I saw people that i know are hard left, people who are not hard right but right. People who are libertarian. I was quite thrilled by this coming together, i was thinking oh, my goodness we might be at the beginning of something quite wonderful in this culture. Maybe it only begins when you have a little conflict like we had here last week. Tucker i think thats right, if you get to 65 of the faculty come im going to send my kids there. Thanks a lot it was great. We welcome your children. Tucker thank you very much much. Well talk to a historian and a former Victor Davis Hanson who wrote an amazing article about why rural voters vote very differently from those in the cities and suburbs, stay tuned. Not caused by a heart valve problem. But whatever trail i take, i go for my best. So if theres Something Better than warfarin, ill go for that too. Eliquis. Eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis had both. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Im still going for my best. And for eliquis. Ask your doctor about eliquis. I mwell, what are youe to take care odoing tomorrow 10am .

Many counties in the Central Valley boated big numbers for donald trump. The Hoover Institution based in samford university, is also a farmer in the Central Valley he just wrote a piece entitled why the Central Valley for its more conservative where he described the 2016 election as a revolt of the forgotten masses against the elites. It was a revolt against walls in the border are proof of ignorant xenophobia, gated walls around private residences are logical measures to ensure security. Thanks a lot for coming on. How would you summarize what is the core cultural difference that creates the divide between rural and urban voters . I think it has a lot to do with speech and deeds, thought and action. People in the country tend to be more isolated and how they dress and how they sound are and not as important as what they do. Weve gone now a halfcentury were the best and brightest paradigm where your zip code ended, and brand of education youre stamped with is supposed to mean something at we take that for granted. People out in the country tend to be a little more autonomous, they pump their own water, they deal with their own sewage. A man or a woman that can repair a Hydraulic Ram in 10 minutes or get on their belly and take on a transmission, that takes a lot of skill and it takes a lot of intelligence and ingenuity. We havent value to that because we are in this paradigm you leave this prep school and you go to ivy league or stanford and then you get branded, you go to Dupont CircleUpper West Side we consider you wise. People in the interior said wait a minute, we are 20 trillion in debt, you cant speak on a campus without being shouted down. Weve got the worst economic growth, who are you smart guys that gave us that . We didnt do it. I think they want to just people with what they do rather than what they say or how they look. Tucker theres also the point you make in the piece that the entire system has benefited the people who designed it, heres how you put it. The trump revolt was a push back against the winnertakeall globalization that enrich the populated coasts far more than the spaces in between. My question since you occupy both worlds stanford and Central Valley, does the coast realized this . That they understand what this was about . I dont think they do. I think when they get up in the morning, im in a coast right now. My oped column is not going to be outsourced to somebody in india. People who do mining and logging in manufacturing and farming, the material things. Theyre saying to us you have a Granite Counter in your kitchen, you have a stainless steel refrigerator those are nice things can we make these things. And we are not outdated and we want to look for somebody who recognizes the worth that we contribute to society. You cant eat an apple, you do have to go back to the elemental essence of food and military security and housing and construction. We are the people who supply it. We dont have degrees, we dont look and sound like you people. If you keep taking us for granted, youre going to get more of the same. That was sort of this tragic shout back to a therapeutic culture. Tucker is more than take us for granted, lots of countries have seen this come a tension between countryside and the cities. Why the loathing of the people in the cities for the people in the country . Lets a very good point, that i think is a different subject. The people on the coast or the elites never assume that they have to suffer the ramifications of their own ideology. People are said to be a xenophobic ornate the vest because they want a wall and then they look at Mark Zuckerberg who walls around his estate in hawaii. Or they say we want reservoirs, we need dams and the people in the coast say thats so preindustrial, we dont do that anymore. And yet San Francisco is supplied by water transfers. Its sort of the anger that these people on the coast dont follow the very rules that they apply, whether its dicaprio flying on a jet and lecturing us about carbon footprints, they dont feel that people follow the same rules that are applied to people in the center. Centerfold and blinkered, unemotional response. Tucker professor hanson, that was really interesting, thanks a lot for tonight. Up the next at universities is dying at slow death, is that a bad thing . College professors are all politically identical, what freedom is tenure protecting . Will talk to a professor who is a professor of tenure after the break especially for people with Heart Failure. But today theres entresto. A breakthrough medicine that can help make more tomorrows possible. Tomorrow, i want to see teddy bait his first hook. In the largest Heart Failure study ever, entresto was proven to help more people stay alive and out of the hospital than a leading Heart Failure medicine. Women who are pregnant must not take entresto. It can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. Dont take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren. If youve had angioedema while taking an ace or arb medicine, dont take entresto. The most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems, or high potassium in your blood. Tomorrow, im gonna step out with my favorite girl. Ask your doctor about entresto. And help make the gift of tomorrow possible. But i keep it growing by making every dollar count. Thats why i have the spark cash card from capital one. With it, i earn unlimited 2 cash back on all of my purchasing. And that unlimited 2 cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business. Which adds fuel to my bottom line. Whats in your wallet . Hey team, i know were tight on time, but i really need a. Sick day tomorrow. Moms dont take sick days. Moms take nyquil severe the. Nighttime sniffling,sneezing, coughing, aching, fever best. Sleep with a cold, medicine. Tucker it looks like a ten euros is slowly dying of the american academy. 40 years ago, 75 of University Faculty a tenuretrack posts. Now just 25 do and theyve been replaced by an army of adjunct faculty played at low wages. With college more expensive than other and professors focusing on political activism rather than teaching your kids, is a decline of tender to be lamented . He was once also president of the American Association of University Professors and an advocate for tenure, he joins us now. Thanks for coming on. Thank you for how theyve made. Tucker the idea of tenure originally was to protect academic freedom. The idea was you should be able to say what you believe in a college campus. If it were working, you would say broad diversity of thought among College Professors in study after study including one just this fall shows the opposite is true. Of the top 40 colleges, democrats out number republicans 121. And history departments it was 301. Thats not diversity it doesnt look like america, is not working, is it . Theres some disciplines of the humanities which arent very politically diverse. There are other disciplines, the sciences, technical schools, engineering and so forth where theres a different range of political opinions. Frankly in many areas of the universities especially sciences and technical schools, you wouldnt know what to faculty members political opinions are because they dont teach subject matter thats engaged with politics. It doesnt matter what their politics are, theyre never going to express them on campus. In some disciplines english and history, its different. Tucker it is different but again, im merely saying the point of tenure is to keep a humanities professor from being penalized for having some opinion outside of the mainstream. What my point is you have total conformity anyway even with tenure. Think about this. Lets just say in the Humanities Department english or history certain Political Correctness of political opinion rains. How are you going to empower a few people to speak it differently, to speak their minds and to resist that prevailing opinion. If those people have no job security, if they are hired yearbyyear on a substandard wage, theyre not good to put everything at risk by disagreeing, part of what the tenure system does is protect those few faculty who have the courage to speak up honestly and resist prevailing opinion. Without tenure then prevailing opinion, Political Correctness just rules and no one speaks out against it. Theoretically the tenure system protects those people. Tucker in effect, thats not true, most of us dont have job security, ive been fired, i say whatever i feel like saying, perhaps ill be fired again. The truth is tenure protects the mediocre, if you dont believe it, ask yourself this. Would you will be willing to submit to heart surgery from a surgeon who had tenure . Would you fly on an airplane on followed by a pilot who could be fired . They would be less impressive than people who face the pressures of the market. Over and over again ive seen it tenure faculty either fired or forced out or was more painful, given some other kind of job. Told they cant teach, they have two file books in the library and theyre not going to get a salary raise for the rest of their lives. If tenure protects job security, but this doesnt guarantee same responsibilities. You are punished severely. Tucker but you still have an income. You still have an income. Tucker you have what most of us dont have. We had a faculty member here who was shunted aside not given a raise for 20 years. In the end, he was earning as much as a teaching assistant. By the time he retired. Universities can be pretty tough on tenured faculty. Tucker can ask an obvious question . If it was so frustrated that he wasnt able to pursue his discipline in the way he felt he needed to, why didnt he leave and go somewhere else . Maybe it says something about his desires which are to have a get a check in free meals and use the College Swimming pool. Made doesnt that some say sending about him, im not being mean, and being sincere. The training for a professorship is anywhere from six to nine years. You then go through a tenure review process takes another six years before you get tenure. All of that is handled properly, its a pretty good test that youre going to be committed to your job for the rest of your life. It becomes who you are, its what you do. People dont want to leave the University Environment because they grow up in it, they become committed to it. They dont want any other life. Sometimes they could do better financially. Tucker let me ask you one final question i want to go back to what i asked earlier and be as honest is to convey. Would you want your surgeon to be tenured, honestly . Youre going in for an operation on what your life depends. Would you want to know that that guy cant really be fired . Would you want that . First of all ive had surgery from time to time and i investigate the surgeon, i find out what his or her reputation is. How often they operate. Tenure wouldnt be the issue. The issue would be whether that person is absently firstrate. They can have job security, but i want to know firstrate. Tucker of course he would come youre not crazy.

Crying. Third time that day. I wasnt even sad. First the stroke, now this. So we asked my doctor. He told us about pseudobulbar affect, or pba. Its frequent, uncontrollable crying or laughing that doesnt match how you feel. It can happen with certain neurologic conditions like stroke, dementia, or ms. He prescribed nuedexta, the only fdaapproved treatment for pba. Tell your doctor about medicines you take. Some cant be taken with nuedexta. Nuedexta is not for people with certain heart conditions. Serious side effects may occur. Lifethreatening allergic reactions to quinidine can happen. Tell your doctor right away if you have bleeding or bruising. Stop nuedexta if muscle twitching, confusion, fever, or shivering occurs with antidepressants. Side effects may include diarrhea, dizziness, cough, vomiting, weakness, or ankle swelling. Nuedexta made a difference by reducing my pba episodes. Ask about nuedexta and go to nuedexta. Com are upgrading their watere filter to zerowater. Start with water that has a lot of dissolved solids.

Tucker heres something new, a group of professors came up with a pretty interesting idea after the fall election. Have two actors reenact the first president ial debate but a woman play over the role of donald trump and the men play the role of hillary clinton. Take place in new york city in a theater, professors figure the experiment which show that trump benefited from sexism and his worst behavior would never be tolerated in a woman. Instead the opposite happened. Audience members many of them liberal logic tree female trumps plainspoken message and they were completely creeped out by mail clintons constant smiling and mans planing. He called mail clint had really bowl. Repeatedly now i understand how this happened. It turns out having a real message transcends everything even gender. Pretty interesting.
