me going and i think you all. i hope you have a relaxing few days. we will see you. velshi starts now. it is sunday june 9th. with less than five months ago since the 2024 presidential election, anxiety is running high about the prospect of donald trump s return to the white house. his bow to exact retribution against enemies, especially in the wake of his historic criminal conviction, has raised fears he could abuse the powers of the presidency and that he could further erode democracy with another four years in office. americans are not the only ones experiencing this anxiety. many of our allies abroad are feeling similarly apprehensive about trump s possible return to power, and they are sharing those concerns about how he could destabilize democracy in the united dates and abroad. trump took an isolationist stance during his first four years of office and signals during his current campaign that he would take a similar approach during a second term. his admiration f
Community service and some counseling but the bulk of my penances completed. Do you write about where you mention your experience in your most recent book wasnt justified, do you feel like your shows justified. Guest will i think when you look at justice you have to look at whether someone did it but you also have to look at whether the penalty is proportion to the offense. You have to look at whether other people who did the same thing got a similar penalty. So justice requires proportionality, and and it requires a certain equity.
