Spanning 200,000 square miles with two with 25 Million people who would say, this is my experience and therefore, ill tell you what we are alike. And thats really what offended so many people from the region. Its not only that hes saying really negative things, hes talking about the ways that appalachian people are innately violence and that the poverty that is in certain places in appalachia is of their own doing hes making a claim about a huge region and thats even if he was saying romantic things about it.

For joe biden. The biden administration knows what could very well happen in afghanistan and is still making the decision to withdraw all u. S. Troops. What is it you think we will hear from joe biden today and how concerned do you see the biden administration about the situation in that country right now? it takes them a little bit backwards, john. Good morning to both of you. Look, the administration is concerned. They believe the taliban is moving more quickly than they anticipated to seize every space that the united states yields essentially within afghanistan. And they know there are going to be some ugly moments in the days and months and years ahead.

He invoked the sacrifice of the police officers who defended the capitol in calling out
Purging his party of anyone who dares challenge donald trump. Like liz cheney. Mccarthy has been learning to ingratiate himself to the 45th president ever since trump pet named him, and i quote, my kevin, on the eve of his inauguration. And since mccarthy figured out trump s favorite starburst flavors. You read that right. It s worked for him so far. Mccarthy did allow some daylight between himself and trump when the carefully quaffed californian spoke his conscience about the january 6th attack on the capitol. The president bears responsibility for wednesday s attack on congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding. And that is true. But with his eyes firmly affixed on the speaker s gavel, mccarthy promptly gaslit his way back into trump s good graces. Do you believe that former president trump provoked i don t believe he provoked if you listen to what he said at the rally. Really? joining me now to discuss, michael steele, former
