I only recently discovered Batya at The Free Press and am so pleased to start seeing her more and more often!! Her intelligence, knowledge and abundant charm makes her a favorite!
I really appreciate Batya.Caught her on Megyn Kelly’s show the other week. Batya makes an interesting analysis of the thing. I agree with her. She is an enjoyable person to hear. i just adore her.
Ikr. Hard to find repairmen anymore for certain things my parents always had done. Told my college aged daughter to take her boots to the shoe repair man at the mall rather than buy new. She hadn't even considered it. But don't worry. I think the tariffs will only be used to ensure each country is engaging in FAIR trade. Some aren't.
Batya is beautiful in every sense of the word. Her auora is infectious, simply put if she’s in something I’m watching it. Thanks for a great interview mate! God bless and merry Christmas!
We're seeing a turnover of media, there are people who are clear eyed and rational, like Batya Ungar-Sargon, who are becoming famous and building an audience, and then there are people on CNN, MSNBC, and the broadcast news departments who sound insane, who don't seem to live in the same universe as their audience, and they're easy to forget. The idea behind new media and old media, I can watch RUclips on a TV now, all the major newspapers and TV channels put their content on RUclips, the distinction doesn't even exist anymore. There's just the sane and insightful, and the confused and useless.
The Republicans have got a great mandate on all fronts. It is upto them to manage it better else they lose the good will. USA has voted less divisively now. It for Trump to unify and heal and take it forward. Let us hope and prey he is able to achive it
Well, one could just follow President Obama's lead, and decide codifying Roe V. Wade is not a priority back when he had promised to codify it while running, and after winning the Presidency, and had the Congress and a super majority in the Senate just blew it off. Maybe Michelle should have just lectured her husband and left the rest of us out of it.
We need to revive the Mind and Hand movement of the late 19th century. It is probably this movement that brought shop classes into high schools. But it also was the founding of MIT, see MIT's motto (Mens et Manus). The movement called for teaching practical useful arts skills along with the theory. It is likely needed more today since the modern students is so distant from how things are made or done. In 1900, a kid had to know some practical skills just to get to school each day. Today, we fire of the magic carriage and use the magic boxes of information. Knowing a bit about tools and trades can help the students understand most literature written before 1960 that might include references to horse culture of the pre-auto era, blacksmithing, etc. "The object of education is the generation of power. But to generate and store up power whether mental or physical or both is a waste of effort unless the power is to be exerted. Why generate steam if there is no engine to be operated? Steam may be likened to an idea which finds expression through the engine, a thing? Why store the mind with facts, historical, philosophical, or mathematical, which are useless until applied to things, if they are not to be applied to things? And if they are to be applied to things, why not teach the art of so applying them? As a matter of fact the system of education which does not do this is one-sided, incomplete, unscientific." -Charles H. Ham, Mind and Hand: manual training, the chief factor in education (1886)
Education has become toxically feminized. Boys are useful only as foils to feel humiliated while admiring displays of the frankly trivial and useless “knowledge” girls are being taught. This is a hard stone wall for a civilization to slam into, it doesn’t end in a soft landing. Hard skills need to be taught again, we need to build again.
I love this intelligent, nuanced, balanced discussion of how to both grow the economy and serve the needs of workers. Is anyone else even talking about this? It’s a discussion that would be against the law in the Democratic Party. You’d be shouted down as a racist and a xenophobe.
Working people are committed to no Party. Most rarely vote at all. But real wages have been stagnant, inflation is rampant, and a mass influx of immigrants threatens their jobs. So, they give Trump a try. If he fails, they'll shop around again.
Women with college degrees outnumber men with college degrees in the workforce since 2019 (with a few short dips). It's only by a percent or so. Non-college men still outnumber non-college women in the workforce and are the largest cohort. Bit tricky for women with college to find a man with the same or higher credentials and/or a higher paying job.
Or perhaps wqe will see a repeat of strategies after the 2016 election, with persistent and hysterical opposition by the media and Democrats, dogging every step Trump makes. Wait and see, I suppose.

We need Subsidies for Industry. CHIPS Act is a good start but more must be done. We need Critical Minerals mining & refining in USA & Allies. We need Pharmaceutical production in USA. Semiconductors. All essential components must be produced either in USA or close Allies. China will cut us off & we must be prepared. We should not be dependent on an adversary.
The host sucks. A slow incessant talker who likes to hear himself. Ask the guest a question, STFU & let the guest give his/her take. The conversation could have been done in half the time and/or covered more topics.
Thats interesting perspective - blue collar men with medium intellect and conservative masculine beliefs are disproportionately more negatively impacted by the ugly side of aggressive feminism.
12:38 Batya was absolutely on fire and this section deserves a replay.
I only recently discovered Batya at The Free Press and am so pleased to start seeing her more and more often!! Her intelligence, knowledge and abundant charm makes her a favorite!
Who's favourite?
Mine, she is awesome!
@@GuybrushThreepwood_GER Something tells me she might also be in the good graces of her company's higher up's.
@@rigelb9025 hey, sorry, not sure what you are trying to express; I am not a native English speaker, I also don't know who her higher ups are
@@GuybrushThreepwood_GER I meant G¤D.
Batya is a freaking genius, love everything she writes / discusses
I really appreciate Batya.Caught her on Megyn Kelly’s show the other week. Batya makes an interesting analysis of the thing. I agree with her. She is an enjoyable person to hear. i just adore her.
Wow. Compassion, insight, and competence rolled into a conversation.
Also, I wonder if Batya & Orin ever get tired of being right.
One response to price increases caused by tariffs might be the rediscovery of appliance repair and the rejection of throw away culture.

100% yes yes and yes, This is so so important.
Interesting take 👍
I just had my oven repaired this week. More repairs means more jobs for Americans.
It would be wonderful if we could bring our brands back from exile in China also GE appliances, Motorola.
More BATYA please! ❤
Batya, what a lovely lady, friendly lovely vibe, beautiful eyes and infectious smile!
She’s really pretty
As a three time Trump supporter I understand the many positive aspects of President Trump
Three times? Damn...what are you gonna do when you start to run out of other people to blame your problems on?
@@Secretary.of.Education go fight for Ukrainian oligarchs
Enjoyed listening to the perspective of this well spoken lady.
Thank you, Batya. You always have a strong take on things.

America needs more Batya!

What does any of that have to do with this discussion?

The divide is exploding, men aren’t attending college anymore.
Democrats: Back to the drawing board and start over from the beginning if you want to run for national office again.
Or perhaps wqe will see a repeat of strategies after the 2016 election, with persistent and hysterical opposition by the media and Democrats, dogging every step Trump makes.
Wait and see, I suppose.
Why worry about people "turning off the podcast" if capitalism is bad? ;)
Is this the one. The sane one I have been looking for. A discussion about american politics without slander and epithets...
In the dark of night the secret vote was cast
We drove the union down at last
My evil deeds have ruined the land
A house divided cannot stand
I want my crown, well I want my crown
The working man has been cast down
And I want my crown
And then the day dawned bright and hard
When I stole away the court of nine
The Judas men served the cause
And the sacred church of law is mine
I want my crown, I want my crown
Justice has been cast down
I want my crown, I want my crown
You love the gleaming war machine
Your hearts beat fast, your eyes on the prize
War without end, riches untold
Oil and God and your righteous pride
I want my crown, yes I want my crown
Peace on earth has been cast down
I want my crown,
I'm going to sit here and watch
Your little world come tumbling down
I want my crown, yes I want my crown
I want my crown, I want my crown
Wait...did Batya just describe "childless cat ladies"? 🤯😀
What’s to be done about the already widely spread Jew-hating curriculum in K-12 public schools?
People voted their refrigerators, gas tanks, and upward mobility hopes.
We need Subsidies for Industry. CHIPS Act is a good start but more must be done. We need Critical Minerals mining & refining in USA & Allies. We need Pharmaceutical production in USA. Semiconductors.

First time this channel has popped up in my RUclips feed.
Subscribed,... dont let me down with click bait bull shit.

Absolutely right. He has a slow, hesitant, stuttering speaking style that is quite annoying.

Re higher education: make universities co-sign all loans. Put their endowments at risk.
Trump and there eating my dog wing of the Republican Party.
Understanding the Trump voter is a pretty funny name for this episode. it's like... let's put these people on the couch.
Daniel in the lion's den!
Of course you will never see a podcast on understanding the Harris voter. They are a mystery for lots of us
Where's the: "Understanding the Harris Voter" epidode?
Sometimes it gets confusing as to whether you're talking about J.D. Vance or DT. Too many babana peals lying around make the floor slippery.
Thats interesting perspective - blue collar men with medium intellect and conservative masculine beliefs are disproportionately more negatively impacted by the ugly side of aggressive feminism.

Feedback to the host. You talk for too long!
