Of course lost their shit this week, because Biden made a gas kind is made for fifteen years matters not about anything but there's a congresswoman aimed Jackie will or sca. You unfortunately died a couple of months ago, this five hundred and thirty five members of congress, okay, Joe Biden, this making any calls for Jackie. Jackie were area well dead

She caught him with another imbecile, the and here's the story of the week. That really blew my, and the most apple, the corporation, not the fruit, fired one of their vice presidents for telling a joke solely from tech. Talk was going on. On asking people What?

If there's room on the next rocket, I'm ready to go the journalist and author of the book, the wind in my hair, my fight for freedom in modern iran, mazi Elinor, jab, the brave person, and I want to get to one-
Where were the other things we want to talk to you about today with what's going on in iran, but let's do it like they do on episodic, shows and start with the. Most dramatic, seen first and then we'll go five years. so couple years ago, for arranging agents or charged in absentee of withdrawing to kidnap you can you believe that Well, I'd like to go so tell us back now, why would they drawing to kidnap me what was going on? So so all this scandal, women, right now that I'm talking to you, they till the twenty year old woman. They even scared of her her mouth I mean, but when they came up Let me my job. was just giving voice to voiceless women inside IRAN. I launched account, and again compulsory who job, because I color, my what I was taught anything videos are women fighting. Like the morality, police being harassed,
I'm not industry, the filming, then that created Huge anger along more laws because they hate when they see that women are fighting back her job police. We're out of the wood is that's. Why days, it's not me. I was really silent. What we're seeing now in iran, we ve seen for two weeks now and it's not stopping. Apparently all these demonstrations. Women have finally had enough. As you said, this young woman was killed in custody taken in by the morality police. They claim some well shit about pre existing conditions being she was a woman, I think was a brig listing invasion and so there's all these rights people a of people have died Because the new is no. We ve seen this before and around. There was a kind of an uprising in two thousand and nine. We saw the arab spring in two thousand and eleven hours, reliably persians or non arab, but we're talking about the same religion, but behind all this this time, gonna be different. Of course. Why?
because, first of all on women, our burning the headscarf and this now just a small piece of cloth for iranian women and women in afghanistan, this is the most visible symbol of a religious dictatorship two thousand and nine? It was it's about like internal fight between conservative reformers. This time from the beginning- The death of my saw, I mean you, created a huge anger. Iranian women not only burning the headscarf there, something against dictators from the first day, so the brutal of man saw. Iming actually became a turning point for women who have been pushing back this gender up. it resume for years or what the take me through what's going to happen in the next months or years I mean this regime is just not going to give up. No don't say that they don't say that again are just going to give up now.
We out we ve been seeing right now. For years and years we had, the fear inside us well now this anymore, not believe me the iranian regime to really scared of the woman and right now, became a tipping point, Now make republic, because this not just in iran across the our people are watching got while these someone working like towards a more out of the police and the ready and come generations are being. right now in the streets, so down, scares the regime, and I always say that this for authorities nothing probably for taliban. This company The job is like the berlin wall. Now we bearing this war down and the islamic republic want exist. This is Maybe maybe not forgot about Ghana's them the taliban took over and they went right back to the battle days.
That's why I don't have any hope or no bite. Susan, I dont have any hope on western countries. They abandon my sister in Afghanistan, but guess rooting today seeks to Forty iranian in woman, the first group will tend to dispute what women of afghanistan can you believe that the western feminist, who actually went to my country war. your job. They now the taliban, they didn't wake What yet. Why are liberals so moronic about him from the red really Is breaks my heart because for years and years we I've been warning them about the dangers of morality, police. You know why because most of them spoke A perfect english and are they not who actually talk about Islam in islamic countries? never go and live on their salary or laws. They don't even let us talk about our own experience. You know, there's a girl
country, where I was told that if you show your her you gonna go today, you will receive lashes, you wait. Feel, like my saw me, but there they tell me that If we talk about this new gonna cause is normal phobia so there is irrational, but believe me, my dear, and the fear of millions of iranian women in afghanistan as rationalize the islamic laws you're, not as scared of being feel. I yes, I am and don't do something wrong. We have absolutely been saying that for years is told that don't go to have been my so because you gonna be cancelled because he's a zombie phobic- and I was like my god- again. You thinking about selling me just because I'm going to do so on fighting against calculation, neither one of us islamophobia
and we re a the liberal in- I believe that is it- people with freedom and dignity and the fact that when this is a young woman, name, Yasmine Mohammed, I'm sure you ve heard of forces was brought up in canada. She wrote a book called unveiled how western liberals missing empower radical islam, which is, I think, what we're saying why or western liberals empowering These forces of real evil was put any. I forget, what is it The carb is that the full body- it's not a different ethnic or her job together with altogether yeah its ones, and one ahead covering is people should be pretty dress. However, they want That is not the same thing as you would much, rather just have to wear that than something that covers your face. If you ask women in iran, Afghanistan believe me for us is not different than you.
Were forced to cover your hair or your face. about concerning when, of course it is inside your face, is still exposed. No don't knock the woman I killed because of iron. Stand, but there's a difference between having be able to have your face in the world and not even having that. Can I read you because means quote This is this is for describing wish. He was married off to somebody who went to Al Qaeda swimming in toronto by the way she's assistance assisted in canada. Yes, ok, I just want people to hear her version of what it's like to have to wear that all day she says is when her husband, but this isn't that really help and turning me into a nothing that the man control over easily it just suppressed. Is your humanity entirely portable sensory deprivation chamber and you are no longer connected to humanity. You can't see properly, you can hear properly. You can't speak properly. People can't see
you you can only see them just little thing passing people in the street and is making eye contact and smiling that's gone? You no longer part of this world until you are a very quickly just drivel up into nothing under their that's. What? like liberals to keep in their minds, every time they say islamophobia and that the. How can you enable draft? Why do they enable that by them all to go and live under thirty or lost in iran, afghanistan, they would say no. They always always try to downplay our cause they. Don't even dare they don't. Even dare to live only one day wearing the forget or her job. Some of them are actually. I challenge anyone Omar, because you know about them now so she's guzman congresswoman from Minnesota yeah coming now whether legislation garden
information around the work that the root cause of xenophobia. I was like we got it wouldn't be here in amerika. Now someone monitoring aspect because it's normal phobia, those who last year's us those who still ass? Those who hang on those who, if me say that I don't wanna, be muslim anymore. They can excuse you those actually create Oh the army, of course, do not need a new and for you, invited congressman omar and modern congress needed area today decline. You request nodded instead they booting me instead, You think you're being paid by the? U S, government only got so economy is not being paid by your cousin I know you re. I know of any other option, because my people are getting children for years and years. I've been going all the way. And feminism from european can you believe they invited me to talk about more keenly ban? I won't do you
in parliament. I hijacked they cause. I know how it will create new york, you bring me here to condemn. Fourteen about muslim bank, but one comes to wearing your job. You bow don't the iranian government, you re working up and now you're wrong. My People in IRAN they are right. Now is sound
for iranians the political commentator and host of the podcast uncommon ground, with bad jones Van jones, the writer at the atlantic and author of girl and Caitlin Flanagan, the I'm trying to find some hope in the world I saw this week. I was watching this dorm and then I'm reading about how widened and deserve this work together very visibly to people who, absolutely have nothing in common politically and could be facing off against each other. At some point, and and yet you know
We had a storm and the president united states didn't ignore florida because they didn't vote for him and he didn't lecture them. Like trump did. When we had fought, you should do more raking. The squeegee florida wouldn't be so I might just drawing at straws here that this is a a harbinger of summer. Hope that dissenters and Biden can put aside differences and work together, like presidents of different and I used to do that now that the bewildering lapping, because the grown ups regulate gonna, know nobody through quickly with the way we were the boy we going through the rule. That did not happen. Our reading writing roads out. Ok,
what I find there's a paradox with Biden, and I want to ask you about it like when I talk to people in the last few months. It's like first thing is: he should not run again, I'm dumb and democrats who are like pretty much you know in the camp. In there like it was not, and then they say, but do you think we want a good job doing great stolen great. We don't want any more that, but I think one of the reasons he so appealing is very hard harking back to when the debt credit party was really the party of the working man and woman didn't matter. raise didn't matter where you were in the country that strong union, we know national labor relations board like they came after amazon for union busting when he's doing a great job of things that really matter to us, but the reason he remembers, those techniques is he's super.
then we can go, there's no sin to it. All there You know, but there's natural processes that happen, and it seems like he is certainly losing his acuity, which alone older men, do and compensating it with this wonderful ability to get people to work together, but would say, I don't think we need to get up and now If gerontologists look at the situation, we've all known old people, yeah we'll take the keys now such the like me. Not so young would say this is such bullshit worst of all this the same week that he did this capital of horrors was over in korea. our long time, ally, north korean, I'm just saying day, is theirs. Nobody is wrong to say is
the sailor, I he always was always night. There is actually more discipline than it used to be on this point, but I think the reality is when, when buying strong he's very strong? and when these weak he's very weak and that's what people are responding to, I think that, from my point of view, you got a couple of hours here. Is that the public, a twenty four seas? but they perceived to be a weak insider versus ace gary outside or a trump or the scientists. It does the perception what you seen in in for If what you've seen in ITALY, what you seen in Sweden is the public breaks towards that scary outsider, and so I do think that people have a reason to be concerned. If he continues to be perceived to be weak, but the reality What's the alternative, thereby that's what I ask people this guy? Has it record now on everything that people's it was impossible. This is
anything done on guns. He got it done right and possibly anything done on climate. He got it done it with you. We had infrastructure week every week under the trump administration and nothing happened got it done. So at a certain point, you gotta do the negotiating drug prices with medicare. Then I that's for thirty years in try to everybody we opening in ohio. That kind of thing from promised endlessly never show I've got to get rid of him. You don't see it all any concerns at all is just like these groups are compelled to what I mean we come to that. Would I'd like to have great wisdom in the body of a twenty year old and it doesnt matter he doesn't have to like it.
I know I admit he is going to have trouble in the debates. Debates are going to look bad and prepare for it. Now, there's going to be some senior moments, show up without pants doing that, vostok that wherever the deal with running the country and running you run the country behind the scenes. This is all show and always on certain things behind the scene and getting people together and just talking and pushing legislation through, but so he has a unique skill set. I guess you could say that is very powerful, because you gotta be probably notice. Was it you gotta, be proud of. The roman, the obama administration, he really does give them and There's one thing the clear there's something else to be competent. He tears is carbon. You got something done, I think I it's hard for have been so depressed and so beat down for so long with front. We don't know how to have a happy day.
We can have some happening right now, but we're just like afraid to with like. Well, you know, I I don't know what more a president could do than he's done in the past the past few months, zone and I gotta tell you he's not giving it up I dunno I mean he waited a very long time he's like dracula. I have crossed oceans at the same time, the president, once you have that real estate and you wake up in the white house and your office is the oval. I just don't think you'd give it up. Unless you know he's not going to quit, he's not giving up. As allies integrity, nomination away from the president president and what I could see replacing the vice president. because he's very popular. I didn't seem to work out and
oh that's, been done before the ticket. You know, I mean a lot of now gathered. Remember that was that moment in the debate where's he brought up these, that there are men and women in California that are in prison, for these no part deals and then she was laughing about getting high on the radio station and it was like cells. They gathered was like this feat seeking mosul. That was the end of it. You know he's got a lot of, in addition to being for some reason and off putting person. See see also, as I think, a lot of baggage that probably wouldn't do well under a lot of scrutiny, just thinks she's a politician and a man. I don't think I she's a very bright person. I guess it, but. can see them doing that a lot of the problem with them In being old is oath, he dies, then. You know you're gonna get this person, ok, so here's from the democratic party there so buxton by identity politics that you
I can see that the democratic ticket that doesnt have a woman person in colorado and pretty soon you gonna line up behind that gay within owen you're gonna have to have you know a death. Ask him, the am I right that they are boxed in by what personally I I see it. Definitely in that I don't think karma has caught fire yet or found her body. I think that's true, I think owning a boat. The polling data says that, but I don't think would be a weight on ticket? Where will say this about it? Any politics, Joe Biden? is an example of a delay. Politics. Joe Biden, is example of black boat or saying we think we need, but a white guy in there in nobody said that at any path has got pants. How'd you get points you have drawn up. Who is not the most saintly guy in the world needs somebody whose identity is conservative, christian he doesn't get spent. So politics is about identity, that's what it is, but one there
There's a person of cholera, one in which they will that's identity, politics. It's all. I didn't politics, not going to repeat it. I take it back and win and it's hard to say I wonder, because I think you're right side and has done really when I just sat down before coming here with his talked to know a red light. Before I come to do yourself, It is a tire him and we just went through all the positive things that he's done, that I had not heard of is just sort of a general Eric person with a general education who watches the news, but cyclists cycle was taken over by a graphic comic book? in a school of a transfer, giving a blow job to another grid and insight what does that have to do with anything? Why and why are we putting behind their work
This is a book in the school data grab ignoble because a graphic got thither, teaching it well it in libraries that it is out of date- and am I guess, be in pictures. Those very haven't taught them how to read, but remember the glaring nobody something about you know. No, so the picture of this translators.
Blowing this other person, and then I dunno. Why? I'm the one talking about the reported, the role the bloods are books in the library or debris buried in the mix down the blow job books in the library, because I think that the you know, as my recollection has said, these things get figured out but I do think anything person and actually hideous to have it her hair. I did not honest figure out blow jobs. When I was asking in health class, can you get pregnant from a blow job today? Let me learn sex and fucking least the gym teacher once a week. Instead of doing the gym you had and you get.
If somebody at some point in your life, I was nineteen or so past that, and I do think where are way to the library. I don't know that, there's a lot of them. They have this picture book of experience a glowing another ten months, and I am thinking to myself that image, probably got so much more and that story, humanity and probably relationship and kindness than one percent of what that act, as demonstrated by in the porn saturated world that we all live in that I, oh go ahead and keep the book, but it shouldn't be like a big ship, that's good
then we're talking about this blow? Job comic book show yeah to be fair. We weren't planning on the square light just well. I may have overdone it on the blow job, the thrill and we get caught up in these really crazy arguments. Maybe the well the new conservative dating app. You know. One of my big complaints, mostly about america, is that everybody is always in their own little bubble, their own little silo. I'm going to do a whole thing on at the end of the show next week. Nobody mingles anymore, and for dating out. You know,
farmers only just just farming. Just don't just don't want anybody who doesn't milk, something the fuck. You know I mean there's a date. You know just jews on the not helping this cause. There's another one. Now Peter Thiel, the billionaire and he's very conservative guy he's putting the a new dating I'm called. The right Not only conservatives, I mean it's a real thing: well, we got a hold of some of these profiles or you can the chattanooga says looking for that special one that helped me find log and Hillary's email. The girl says I, like romantic, dinners, buy to yours light and what was the nominee from Google says? I'm hung like MIKE pence should
the tired of patrolling the neighborhood for suspicious black men alone, the brands it says need a woman who are wise. My these colors don't run t shirt in cold water goddamn the glen as I like long walks in my walk in bathtub the gallery for meddling, your compound or mine, the carrier from Memphis as dog lovers, assembly ones used on civil rights protests. The daily from Sacramento is as big and ran. Then atlas shrugged, but you won't.
one myself for the remarkable says purity ring where the lord is my savior upper anal, the zabbix lately the and it's going to use the library, the no but is it really interesting? Political I would say that the Republicans don't want trump to be the nominee way more than they didn't want him in two thousand and twenty by twenty percent he's dropped. Twenty percent that at all
what among the public, only half the story, so they want somebody else, probably dissenters but is is the nominee he still in a dead. He with the democratic just shows whoever the Democrat is is like it's not on the table. So when I was asked this question the toxic diet. What makes people hate, so much that, even as I have said this before, when you talk to train people, they say your biggest consumption is that I, like him,. ok, the one thousand nine hundred and twenty two article on the atlantic last week, the atlantic fairy reputable ok, morgan. If no party in clean and publishers, things from around the political spectrum in this
We ve been highly respected articles gold separating sports by sex doesn't make sense yes, does the pardon of low down your blogger the original tonight. I just read some of this article, maintaining this binary in youth sports. Maintaining this binary, meaning boys and girls on different teams when they're young reinforces the idea that boys are inherently bigger, faster and stronger.
This is a notion that students nowadays by scientists for years, know what these are like these follow. The science people follow the science Actually. I read the article I was I was signed by the headline. I read the article. I think that they're making a particular point, which is that there are some sports for instance, where a really really good girl is better than a mediocre boy and if he wants to play on the boys team. She's a probably be allowed. I think that makes sense. but what does it make sense, is when a really really good boy wants to play and the girl sitting, because that is going to be. in an unfair advantage. I do think that this is the this.
This. You around the gender binary has has taken up way too much space in the public conversation. I think that people are we. yeah, but I think that people having to put the seas and the this and that and the pronouns on their resume. All of that stuff starts to send a signal. I think to working class voters that there that these people are not concerned about the things that, like me every day we are not concerned about inflation, not concerned about what is not to say you can't big care about everybody, but there's something is out of balance, and so I think that when we start sending the cultural signal there were more concerned about the Pronoun you put on your zoom call. Then we are concerned about the fact that you don't have any, also a job. I think the parties up
What are you gonna get a person of color? We I've been bless, my wedding. I grew up on the edges How can you read state? I went to all public schools, I gotta minority scholarship to go to the university tennessee at Morton and it changed my life I used to work at a local newspaper in the mailroom running that the process with a bunch of white guys and in one academic year. I got him leave their go to school. I came back. I came in the front door of that newspaper took before work.
Before I got in the bag into the shower after work that one year of college changed my life and by the time I graduated from college, all those white guys who lost their jobs because they brought in a printing press was a big robot and didn't need the guys. So I understand how people can sometimes feel that they are being left behind. They're being left out, they've been sold down the river by both parties. The Democrats missed opportunity after opportunity to tell people we get that, and we can heard so many times say that we lost the white working class and you're describing the way in class- and I agree with it- saying now is that we It should not be shunning them, we should be bringing them back in and I think with the opportune that we miss when we go down these calls cultural rabbit holes is to tell these guys the reason that we are mad at the working class white guys is cause. We need them, we need them, we,
another company what we want we want without. But why do we look out? There utterance were often difficult because the veterans, often because their small business owners, because grandad's because you're good people in ok how they vote are. We got young people, this country going to bed hungry and we keep those guys on their side. The democratic party which it's not about race, it's not about identity, it's about the working class and we're the party of the working class regardless it's not about the black working class, the brown working class and the reviled white working class. What I'm saying is is that we need each other. What I'm saying is that people are hurting and uncertain in from appalachia to the hood not going to get around this by ourselves. We need each other. If we don't start with that guy, I watched a little bit of this document called deconstructing. Tiring. Have you heard about this
it's about this organization called race to dinner. I've been reading about it for several years. It's it's too women of color who get white liberal women to pay them a lot of money. to go to their house. Have a dinner and yellow But their raises This is this on the race to dinner. About me pay. This is there. This is what their selling about themselves Dear white women,. you cause a measurable pain and damage the black, indigenous and brown people that these dinners or a starting point to start thinking through how you actively uphold white supremacy every man of every day I could give you the during the kill yourself right now to get myself. Women have found it in this sector and I would invest in them.
because they have a lot of words. They found a market, they made a product, they found these networks to pay for it. What's wrong with liberal said, he's my whole life, no one's ever gone broke overestimating the almost sexual desire. A white liberals to roll around in their white liberal guilt and the five thousand dollar dinner. I'm guarantee that by ladies that was really hard next week. It's eat, love, pray at Dana's house is the limit. Let me say this: I dunno the people are doing. But what I will say is this: the reason that people are getting fatigued with the diversity conversation is because we've been having it for so long and what I like.
We get it need that comes here. What I would say this wit. Where do we get to the body part of the body movie? You know the buddy movie as he got the black guy in the white guy and they don't get along. They argued the person they fight within a certain point. They realize they have shared humanity and they do something awesome together. When do we get to the office import. I get it. We passed by, we dont go on, but a certain point. When do we say, let's put up solar panels in every working, and what do we say? Let's etiquette a hundred thousand young kids to join it taken. When do we get to the bloody part I enter? I believe that the women in white women will be closer. They have endured something sedate that their bodies now I really am strong about this. The body parts- is when we as democrats, stop sending trucks room around to tell all these white working class people that we still asia- and we say these are unable to.
These are americans, think we'd all these things and we certainly vile them all the time nursing took see where you're twenty. Sixteen, you don't remember when you said one iota, We looked for every one working class white motor that we listen, pennsylvania and ohio and mace again through college educated republicans? Yet in the first place it didn't work out, and the message was clear: he doesn't want why working class people then the parting differently. But I see it differently. Listen I love the coalition, But he got in twenty sixteen, because it had people in there have been left out for a long time it had muslim. It had gained it had immigrants it had black moms who lost people. I love that circle. I just We do the circle over two small and there were people who were hurting where outside of that circle who are working, class, white, folks and others who didn't do we just didn't draw the circle.
So I don't ever want to put down the black and brown books or something put down the one. I just bring in more for how do we get the white working plan and I think the baha I I do think that Gotta rebalance some some of the cultural stuff, just doesn't resonate outside the blue cities and we need to be able to, but I think we gotta be careful, because if we did we come across like me, don't you the pain of the folks. We just brought in that. Doesn't work. You right and you know also a black working a very large one need only look at the two hours before breakfast and waste water,
entertaining in the don't forget to enjoy aura before it's gone. Now, if you live on the east coast in the changing leaves here in the west, enjoy how fire season rolls right into awards. The year in russia and you're, throwing someone out of a window remember to say: have a nice fall, the creepy old guys and dragon shows up to stop taking business meetings during doctor's appointments. I've never seen a dragon shower. An old guy didn't eventually have a scene where people try to talk to him, while doctors put litres on his dick, the king, but the maggots your deck. When it's convenient for you, everybody else could reschedule the new role since there's a brittany.
