I am Bradley Graham the cone are of politics and prose along with my wife lissa muscatine. Thank you so much for coming. We were very excited when we learned after last years clematis hearings on the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh and the Supreme Court that ruth marcus was writing a book on the subject because we knew that if anyone could deliver an indepth behindthescenes account of what happened and also put the whole drama into a grand and political context it would be roof.

In the acknowledge mens rev calls this a book shes been preparing to ride for her entire career and indeed she brought to it a wealth of knowledge and experience, educated in history at yale and harvard ruth went right into
There was no illegal wiretapping. There were no informants. And there is no spies on the chime campaign. Although it took two years, the truth is finally out. No, no james its not. Because you totally ignore the part of the report that showed the fbis handling of warrants during your time is the director. You dropped the ball. You blew it. But that pat on yourself on the back tour does not end there. This morning call me when on his favorite Number Network msnbc and said it will take years for the fbi to rebuild its reputation despite the fact that he helped break it. Eddie had some really kind words for attorney general bill barr. Not really, thats funny. You see bill barr, the guy the nosy institution acted the ways acting. Im not sure, but ive seen donald trump or people around him. Sort of by eating his soul. He wraps you, people close to him in a cocoon of falsehoods and you tell yourself a story, i think that i can survive this and ill make compromises. Somehow i will get through
Im a long time resident of district 5, i to california in 1947, and i watched all the things that have happened over the years. Met anyone who cared so much to pick up the garbage, to pick up the people, try to find places for people to live, try to help all of us to develop new relationships and understanding here in our district. And i would like, again, to thank you so very much for what you have done. I want to say, im with you all on the city college. But i came here to talk about the Reparations Initiative. And i also came here to not necessarily talk about racism and those type of things, but to talk about acknowledgement and being overlooked. Most of the time when black people are hired, you know, except for franklin, most of the time when black people are its about us struggling against something and fighting some oppression, but you never acknowledge this, and i understand the city, you never acknowledge this for our contribution. We actually contributed to the fabric of this

Era. You are category me to come up with how much, i dont think i have to do that right now. Kennedy you do. What the hell is wrong with you . Why have liz and bernie been acting so caging when it comes to paying . The mag does not add math does not add up, each offered a tax the rich solution, but if you crunch the numbers that will not work. And they conclude tax increases on high earnings, corporations and Financial Sector by themselves could not cover much more than onethird of cost of medicare for all. That means the middle class will get the shaft. They will be the ones with the bill, according to crfb report only way to pay for it includes things like a new 32 payroll tax on wages, and 25 income tax or more than doubling all individual and Corporate Income tax rates. Never fun to read find print, a lot of people would choke on that before the polls, should far left candidate abandon that charade or keep pushing to bankrupt the nation, party panel, the birthday girl, kat timpf.
