For reproductive rights in america and jamie raskin on where the stands on document production went all in starts right now? them good evening from new york. I m chris. A is just a few hours ago president joe biden announced a sweeping new vaccine mandate, or set of mandates. That could get as many as 100 million workers vaccinated, as part of a new initiative to curb the delta variant. My job as president, is to protect all americans. So tonight, i m announcing that the department of labor, is developing an emergency rule. To require all employers, with 100 or more employees, that together employ over 80 million workers. Two and share their work forces are fully vaccinated. Or show a negative test at least once a week. Some of the biggest companies are already requiring. This united airlines. Disney. Tyson s food. And even fox news. The bottom line, we are going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated coworkers. The tone of biden s speech today i thought was pretty striking. I
Insurrection attempt, was a real plan, how do we even translate that, how do we sit around and wait a year for inspector general s report about the fight that donald trump was calling up people and saying flip this election for me? exactly. I appreciate the balance that she s talking about that when you re talking about people having committed crimes in the political context, in this case overthrowing the government, and keeping somebody in power, we don t criminalized politics. You can commit a crime in a political context, but it has to be approached so much that if you get voted out of office you end up in jail, that has to only happen if you are definitely a crook committing crimes while you are a politician. And so there is a balance that has to be found, but merrick garland has a justice department where all of these former high ranking officials may have participated in very serious crimes, and the justice department has to self police its own officials in a way to fix that fast
people who gathered in washington was a signal of how important and beloved secretary albright was. she not only contributed greatly to our democracy, but show was also an embodiment of the american dream. her family fled prague to escape the nazis when she was just it years old. they returned after the war and then had to flee again when communists overthrew the government. throughout her diplomatic career, she focused on spreading democracy around the world, especially by expanding nato which president biden emphasized in his eulogy, but she knew that democracy was fragile, and towards the end of her life she warned about the return of the global danger of fascism riding in her book aptly named fascism, a warning that some may view the book and title as alarmist, good. we should be awake to the assault on democratic values that has gathered strength in many countries abroad and is dividing america as home. her mentee, our third female secretary of state, hillary rodham cl
this week. i am a man when he dean, let s get started. here is the problem with the republican party of 2022, there is no limit, nothing is out of line, nothing is too extreme for them. sure, there can be public outcry, there can be condemnation, there can be some strongly worded letters, but it doesn t stop the gop from going for broke. even if it means completely and totally deviating from the core values and principles. that s what we are seeing with the florida republican party. they re blind march towards extremism has led them to abandon both long-standing political philosophy and actually their own voters. it s equal parts fascinating and frightening. look how quickly small government have embraced out and out autocracy. by now, we are all familiar with florida s don t say gay law. it sparked quite the backlash as it aims to erase entire groups of the pushback was so significant that even businesses started condemning the legislation including disney. although we sho
and out autocracy. by now, we are all familiar with florida s don t say gay law. it sparked quite the backlash as it aims to erase entire groups of the pushback was so significant that even businesses started condemning the legislation including disney. although we should note that disney waited a long time before actually speaking up against the bill. but that didn t matter. it didn t matter how laid or tepid disney s condemnation was. ron desantis took the free speech as an insult to him. this week, he retaliated, ordering his legislative to strip mickey mouse and co-of their special district-ing privileges in the state. folks, let s be clear about this, this is textbook a photo authoritarianism. wielding the extra bets of the state to punish private citizens and businesses, what a far cry from reagan s foot republicanism. and establishing the status, the gdp raised florida s texas by as much as two billion dollars. and last time i checked, republicans were against rais
