The Prime Minister, which leads the government holds the most executive power. So the Prime Minister here, roberts 5th so says that he promises to and military a to crane and that he stands for peace talks like listen, okay, and i, it looks like it has other and bigger problems in your brain. We dont agree with. I mean degree, if sma forms of coalition, we would do everything also is a part of the e. U. A support. Everything for peace and ukraine and efforts to stop peace negotiations on ukraine. Now the Prime Minister of slovakia has previously mentioned that these new sanctions against multiple are essentially pointless. He also says that if the ukraine to the joins nato then that the pulls the 3rd world war. But so we do have older reactions to this president ial election and one of them is the hon. Gary and Prime Minister, who essentially congratulated slovakia on their recent elections. Looks like listen, my heartfelt congratulations to people agreeing on his overwhelming victory
Evolved, because theres such a rich history and what you see and hope for moving forward. I was talking to tim about this earlier coming in. So the print, i want to say the print is the median age is probablily early 60s. We Just Launched a new website the main demographic at thenation. Com is 25 to 34. The continuity in change, the ability to bring people in and i mean, i want subscribers who are 105 and i want readers who are 12, and we had writers who are 13 and writers who are 104. So i think thats a great span, and its complicated, because i remember tom frank, many years ago did a cover story for us, what is hip . And i got angry calls, this is years ago. Richard was sitting anyway, what do you mean . What about my Health Insurance program . [ laughter ] so we got straddled. But i take great, i take heart in bringing in a new generation and thats partly the interns, its partly the student nation program, we have 60 campus correspondents all around the country, all kinds of campus
Report from occupied territory where he laid out issues were grappling today, stop and frisk, alienated communities, Police Brutality. These are back and its incumbent upon the nation i think to have debates about where these different moments come together and diverge. I totally agree, and i would add, this is another example, because i go with katrina on the cruises fundraising cruise, we had a panel and Jesse Jackson was on this, the beginning of this cruise, and he got off the ship after the first half, and on the panel, our columnist eric walterman, who is a very smart person, who goes out of his way, i keep telling him, to make unnecessary enemies. I love eric, and hes a really good writer, and i look forward to his column regularly. Eric said after jesse was off the boat, just in passing on this panel, im very glad that the first black president obama had been elected was not Jesse Jackson but was barack obama. At which point Jeremy Scahill brilliant Investigative Reporter and c
Cared about words a lot, and so you stayed out of his way when you were editing him and basically in my experience was you said yes or no to what he wanted to do, and you could say no, and its not for us, and but i like to say grow gore vidal. I was going to speak of someone else in the protradition of great writers and essayists contributing to the nation. Tony cushner, who i brought on to the editorial board, he in 1994 was so incensed by Andrew Sullivans piece on the case for gay marriage because it was in a very participatory aroundal capitalist, militaristic framework and we talked about it and he wanted to reply.

The cia also werent helped by the fact that the name of that program was called chaos, and had very negative connotations, even though the cia insists that it was just a randomly chosen code name. 40 years later, we are still talking about these two committees. Just how significant were they . Well theyre very significant for the cia and the fbi. The fbi had been conducting its own very questionable activities under j. Ed dpar hoover, and those get very tcurtailed. The Central Intelligence agency permanently established by the senate by the congress thats not just a kind of blip on the radar.
