aren t corrupt, yet they re watching this happen. and you re starting to see the support seep away, i think. we re very proud of calling ourselves the most generous nation on earth, in fact. 44 years ago today, richard nixon lifted off the south lawn for the last time. the helicopter. yes, and gerald ford talked about our long national nightmare. do you see, do you entertain any echoes of anything nixonian in what we re witnessing now, as a historian yourself? oh, absolutely. i mean, history never repeats itself, but as you know, twain said it rhymes, or perhaps you can say it echoes. the corruption now is sort of different, it s sort of money grubbing, greedy corruption, to make money, emoluments as they call it, to make money out of their office. you see the same type of coverups and, frankly, lying. when somebody who is the president of the united states
the daily caller printed a lie. it s interesting that avenatti is talking about ethics when he is charged with being unethical. melissa: i m sure that is why he is doing it. the irony is not lost on him. brad, the allegations have to do with business practices in the past and it makes him look like he is money-grubbing. do we know whether these are true or false? there are court documents that the daily caller says back them up. if he knows it was untrue there would be action here. i don t disagree with the legal threshold that richard mentioned before. he is a public figure so the malice aspect has to be included in it. it is a different set of circumstances when it s a non-public figure. however, i think on a political point, i think that the democrats, my party, made a terrible mistake here. you know they are pushing him forward in the attack mode.
detroit, cleefland, philly yeah. milwaukee. what we think we can do sean is we say, say it s $300 billion. bring back $300 billion and we can earmark it and direct it towards in other words those people that have been hurt the most, the rust belt, that got trump elected. exactly. can that money be targeted to those projects first? on an infrastructure bill you have to have it for geographic regions, not one in particular. but for placers that hurt, economically depressed, they will be places we will be directing you know what i m worried about, 535 greedy money grubbing politicians senators and congressmen that all want their piece of the pie and we will waste 50 cents on the dollar. can that be earmarked as anthony scaramucci was saying and get it away from them? ? you identify projects of great
they are sharing the #o #optoutside, photos of themselves climbing and mountain biking with family and friends which is what they love to do. i can see this working for rei, for the silicon valley companies all about the staff experience. generally speaking, is it going to catch on with more mainstream companies? i m not sure. it s hard to say. i know that the outdoor segment is really loving it. there s another example, padigonia. similar company. it s a for-profit company, but they have these types of values. this year, it s donating profits to an environmental non-profit network. that s kind of interesting. they are still making sales on black friday, but they are donating all their profits to an environmental non-profit. it s not all money grubbing. good to see you. thanks so much. thank you.
is this about favors of government in exchange for money and what s the proof? well, that hasn t been proven. what we do know is just gross money grubbing. and in no universe is it okay for secretary of state to have her spouse out there getting enriched by foreign interests. and you look at this example it s so striking because bill clinton is in on this deal from the beginning at helping make it happen. and peter the clintons say and their defender as well the foundation did lots of good works. if you have a nasty person who gives money that goes to a lot of purification project, what s wrong with that but there is a reason these donors weren t going to the red cross because they weren t going to get the political influence from the red cross. the head of the red cross wasn t the spouse of the secretary of state and possibly future president of the united states i have been in government and politics and helped republicans and democrats. i have had a good feeling
