A good description of our current authoritarian white house. Next week do 'our White House with Joe, a categorical hatred of foundational American ideals.'
About the demonstrations about Gaza and what it means for the election: I wonder how much the Russians, Chinese and Iranians are participating in the heartburn elevation around this?
I really miss the days when reporters were unbiased and just reported facts and not their slant on things. No thanks.
Do not lump Israel & Ukraine together, totally different!
Exactly. Israel is acting more like Russia.
@@ld4974 Fuck Palestine
How so? Both are fighting battles they can't win against opponents who are not any more sympathetic or worth supporting than they are. Both portrayed themselves as victims and used it as an excuse to attack (Putin just beat Zelensky to the starting line and crushed Z's army of 130K before he could move in). Both are happily leeching off American taxpayer dollars by using illicit leverage that their "intelligence" operative have against US politicians. Both are hijacking our gov't and our money for their own ends to get us to fight their battles for them and both need to be stopped immediately. And yes, if that means we find out about the kiddie prn and whatever other sick things these creeps have been up to, so be it. It's time for the truth to set us all free.
She is soo wrong on many levels
I think people need to educate themselves on the important issues of the day and seek out their news from reputable sources. I always encourage people to ignore the algorithms. Stop allowing yourselves to be lambs led around...seek opposing viewpoints while fact checking their sources. I also have faith in voters who seem to be rejecting candidates who are radical extremists, instead electing more moderate candidates that will strive to work for the good of, if not all, then a majority of their constituents. I think the toppling of Roe v. Wade has been a wake-up call to all American voters that we need to rid our government of extremists who do nothing except polarize Americans and push radical policies. Thank you, Katie Couric and Anne Applebaum, for all you are doing to keep the conversation flowing for all those that choose to listen with an open mind.
no real idea of whats really happening, ukraine has already lost.
Every Democrat an independent and maybe Republican must read Project 2025
and Agenda 2030.
Stuff like this been around since the depression really in my opinion - its just the dirt under the rug is over flowing - HAAA!
As to why we're seeing a rise in populism and hence authoritarianism it would be important to look hard at the effects on people of neoliberal policies in western democracies. Global labor arbitrage (offshoring), deregulation and the all out assault on Labor empowerment have left people feeling that their governments are no longer "For the People" but are now for the rich people. The Biden administration is the first since before Reagan to address these issues but it will take a long time to undo the damage.
When is the last time a major corporation or military industrial complex disagreed with a democrat?
Biden didnt adress squat. He put a bandaid on a bullet wound and called it all better and we should shut up about it now and vote blue no matter who.
No thanks.
Social media reform? I noticed you mentioned everything except how to better educate the American about how the government actually works, how the government is structured, and teach them how to be more analytical when it comes to digesting information.
So the Biden Presidency wrapped up in a nutshell.
I am having problems reconciling her message about not fixating on existential cultural issues with all her comments in podcasts fearing the "End of Western Civilization" (w/ Sam harris, etc).
1) causally dismissing TicTock reflects one’s age.
2) Hasn’t SCOTUS already shifted toward dictating rather than applying?
No!!!!
How do you talk to a cult? Did Jim Jones have somebody saying, "Let's not"? Sometimes evil seems preordained
Wasn't Jones a democrat? That's what i thought.
Hello, Katie. I was helping my grandmother today.
this was a good one !
Nice ratio
This woman is dillusional. Both of them are 😂
What exactly is yalls long game what do you gain from doing this
This woman is vile
What an amazing interview.
Totally blown away by katie's stupidity. Amazing!!!
Elitist! It’s no wonder the average American is repulsed by her narrative
She forgot to mention Vietnamese autocracy in her list of autocracies
Russia is a threat to Europe but then you claim Russia is losing to Ukraine which is running out of ammunition. Interesting
Oh for heavens sake go away..
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
We are also seeing the Right wing conservative parties adopt and entertain more fascist policies...we now have the Supreme Court actually entertaining the idea of giving Trump or a president of their choice immunity and greater powers...
Yeah, define fascism... Projecting much?
@@IronskullGM fascism is an Authoritarian form of government opposed to Democracy and Liberalism...At it's head is a supreme Dictator with unlimited powers and rules with a cult of personality surrounded by a nationalistic zeal...how does that sound to you Chud let me know if you agree or not....
Total B S. The leftist socialists are doing that. The democrats embrace Cultural Marxism, and that is what is killing our freedoms. Look at the radical squad members for starters. Obvious radical socialists who want to destroy our freedoms and turn us into another banana republic!!
Kinda like rigging a primary?
Beck vs DNC.
@@benjaminhenderson5025 actually the DNC and RNC were both set up to be a check and guardrail against a populist candidate...yes the DNC viewed Sanders as a Populist and voted in favor of Hillary...The RNC failed that check and now Trump owns the RNC it is in the hands of a populist...
What extraordinary misrepresentation. I've never heard such rubbish.
Boooooo!! Couric sucks!
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
God bless Israel.
F Palestine, F Ukraine, FJB
