Would have looked at me and said, biden, what are you drinking, but that s what it did. now, we don t know what s going to happen from here. there s some evidence that in south africa where a lot of this started that it s dropping off quickly, too, we don t know. but i do know that we re not going to be in a position like i said, remember when we were having trouble with masks and gowns and the like. i said, i promise you. i got questions, why are you still paying for all these masks and gowns? why are you stockpiling this? turns out we re going to need it. doctor, you know, you and i had a conversation toward the end of the summer i believe on a podcast that i hosted. we talked about what the future looked like and you were pretty clear eyed about the likelihood that would be more variants coming and the likelihood there could be variants even worse than delta coming. we ll talk about omicron in a second, but when you hear joe biden say it didn t take long at all, what do you think
Healthcare. what do you do if you re a mom and a dad working with minimum wage? busting your neck? you look at your kid and you know if you don t get that vaccine for them, excuse me, if you don t get that drug for them, if you don t get that, be able to take that. what happens? maybe die. not only do you put the kid s life at stake, you strip away all the dignity of a parent looking at their child. i m not joking about this. imagine being a parent looking at a child and you can t afford, you have no house to borrow against. you have no savings. it s wrong. that is a familiar kind of frustration and humanity this joe biden often shows when he talks about the impacts of policy on the live of regular
Instance, and as well as obstruction of justice. but absolutely. and unlike watergate, you have here, it seems, in terms of the investigation of january 6th, people the president and people around him actually effectively committing the central crime in a way that you didn t have at least in realtime in the watergate investigation and hearings evidence of richard nixon ordering the watergate crime. here you have all kinds of incitement and people around him, whether they re scott perry or mark meadows, involved in that central set of crimes. and now, of course, we ll see. i m using crime loosely about january 6th. obviously there were crimes involved. but the nature of those crimes, whether there was conspiracy and all the rest, which your legal guests can speak to better than i. but i think it is absolutely
Conversations with joe manchin and with house and senate leaders. we have a problem on the house side because so many of these votes were delivered on the promise of a commitment to negotiate around that framework that everybody signed off on. and so i think there are a lot of hurt feelings going on and afterall, these may be members of congress and a president, but they have feelings, too, and you can hear those expressed. i think they re going to come back to the table you know, get the holidays out of the way. let the you know, cooler heads prevail and get back to the negotiating table. this is a no fail for democrats. they don t really have a choice about getting something passed because their future, their political future really depends on it. real quick, the political tech tonic plates are shifting and the united mine workers in west virginia are asking manchin to rethink his position. you know, still the case he s
Against hillary clinton and we read that as encouraging people towards violence. now we have jesse waters out here talking about kill shots and ambushes. i know nothing is going to happen to him at fox news. but what do you think about this and just how bad do you think it is, how dangerous do you think it is, and what do you think can be done about it? well, i think that january 6th is a very clear indication about how dangerous this is. there s always been partisanship. there has always been politicized arguments, but what we have seen is violence mixed with that rhetoric. it began even with the former president s original campaigns when he was talking about using violence against his political enemies then. that has only escalated and now it s become normalized to the point that it is a problem. and i think coupled with this idea of trying to get at the extremism in the military.
