think is unlikely. this is all coming from that. it s really despicable. yeah, and it is, and it really is telling about pompeo because one of the things you have to remember about pompeo as he was one of the biggest anti-muslim begets in congress. into any 13, after the boston marathon bombing, he basically accused muslim leaders across the country of being complicit, lied and said they hadn t had disavowed it. what does that have to do with this? could he say, he says about jacoby, i know enough about the middle east to know that this kind of thing is routine in the middle east. that s what he said. the implication is this is what muslims and arabs do, right? it was one particular regime, one particular man who did this, and you know who flak for that regime and man? mike pompeo, when congress froze arms sales to saudi arabia after khashoggi s death. pompeo invoked an emergency, saying we had to sell them eight billion dollars, it was a national security emergency.
like repeal the trump tax cuts, detects him isn t, steering corporations go to, stitch up a loophole they got kicked in the 15% court minimum tax. we concrete about 1.7 trillion dollars right there, but the republicans don t want to talk about that, they want to talk about making hardworking families, middle class families bear more burden and let the wealthiest and most well connected get off with even less. that s just not right. you can sort of see, and i should note that kevin mccarthy said today he s not in favor of the proposed legislation, which has been promises regular order as part of the speaker accusations. it s unclear if it will get a committee vote. even he understands that this is terrible politics, and i think running away from it, they tried to bottle up the committee. i also think generally
they can push enough pain on american families over the next few years, they will believe it will help republicans and in particular, help donald trump in the white house. democrats are not going to fall for this again. the second is to an issue that i know is near and dear to your heart, and might as well, which is what the fed does. if you look at the measurements, there is a steep deceleration of inflation, other measures the show that is lagging and the question of will the fed take yes for an answer, or are they determined to produce a recession? it s probably the most important, political economic question in the country now, and are you at all hopeful, christopher waller, a fed governor, sunday more less hawkish that they re getting the message here? the data very much backs up the idea that inflation is easing. i get it, we want to bring down the inflation rate, but that means landing the plane, not crashing the plane.
and the hope that liberty and justice is for all people. but here s the truth. attacks on our constitutional rights, yours and mine are greater than they ve ever been. the right for all to vote. reproductive rights. the rights of immigrant families. the right to equal justice for black, brown and lgbtq+ folks. the time to act to protect our rights is now. that s why i m hoping you ll join me today in supporting the american civil liberties union. it s easy to make a difference. just call or go online now and become an aclu guardian of liberty. all it takes is just $19 a month. only $0.63 a day. your monthly support will make you part of the movement to protect the rights of all people, including the fundamental right to vote. states are passing laws that would suppress the right to vote. we are going backwards. but the aclu can t do this important work without the support of people like you. you
