I really don't like how Angela turned this into an attack on him. I am glad he didn't back down.

No you can’t switch pleases with him because u don’t know him and how he thinks.

What’s up Mr. Steele. You were great in Baltimore brother and I’m glad to see you have a show now

Profr H Cox Richardson, I follow you on YT from Paris regularly, but I canceled FB and X, one social media is enough at eighty. As a specialist of international law and history I find your work useful and inspiring. Thank You.

Michael?are you celebrating the death of Jocelyn Nungaray, the 12 year old angel in Houston who was brutally and sexually assaulted thaen killed and thrown in the bayou? I mean, in your words it just one in 11 million. You're a sick bastard!

How do we get EVERYONE to listen to this podcast. This is incredible…

The problem is that many American people believe that America's founders sought to create a Biblically-driven society ordered towards enforcing Biblical teachings, not personal rights (other than freedom to practice Christianity and the Second Amendment). Most Americans don't know this! 💙🇺🇸

I wonder if Michael would have done this interview, AFTER Phil had done his softball Trump Interview...

YES...VOTE BLUE!!! VOTE FOR CAREER POLITICIAN JOE BIDEN WHO NEVER HAD A REAL JOB IN HIS LIFE. PEOPLE LIKE PELOSI, WATERS, AND BIDEN ARE THE POSTER CHILDREN FOR TERM LIMITS FOR CONGRESS.

Dearest Michael Steele Network, and most importantly and most especially Heather Cox Richardson, Most definitively, as the Matriarch of our United States of America's political system, our Country's History, and of our leading voice for politics here in America, I thoroughly must say how proud I am to simply have found your channel in the first place. I love your work and all that you do so gosh darn much! I would love to not merely consider, but call you Campaign Manager. Irregardless, We're looking for collaborating and speaking more about our electoral marathon! Would love correspondence. Will either of you be in Washington the next several months? Looking forward to collaborating. Businesscard for Businesscard? Thank you so very much. Yours, truly. P.S., Hope you don't mind the promoting (please would you tell me if you do!) 🏳️‍🌈 Merkley-Kraft '24! 🏳️‍⚧️ We'll kiss, we'll hold hands, and we'll get married in front of our entire United States of America! 💌Ry Kraft for President! Let's bring our pride back to our United States of America! Let's make America better again! Why, does our Registry have over 60,000 in our registry, here in the Portland metropolis alone, but only 1,000 notarized? It's common sense issues like these that our fellows believe have been well-established decades ago, when in reality, we're at basic level on so many pressing issues! And, also, This is one that will most definitively be funded! When I become (Vice) President, the first thing I'd do is sign off on a couple crucial Executive Orders focused on Mental Health and wellness in our leading Enforcement positions: √ Hiring Therapists and or Psychiatrists per Precinct with a client/doctor confidentiality, keeping our Officers on the force and maintaining a non-bias, non-mandated reporter-type basis; reprimanding, retraining, not removing; √ Hiring at least (1) Law Professional per State to mitigate negligible, reoccurring persons and cases to escalate and determine an equitable, fair outcome prior to all-or-nothing offenses occur; to aid, not (necessarily) make life changes or decisions; √ Mandating CDL-Training (and potentially Hiring Process mitigation) within our Prison System, and a broader-scaled Technical Training within our Jail System; as well as √ Hiring, at the very least, a graveyard crew of ~7, per state, maintaining our Country's registry. These, I wholeheartedly believe key, when building upon, holding, and in keeping, a career. There should never be despondency; if there's an issue, should we not be alotted to on-the-job training? if there's emotional turmoil, should we not be alotted on-the-job resources? if we're to be hired initially, should we not have job security? In Every Job Position! Then there's • border protection which is absolutely imperative; Key fundamentals of Democratic policies like: • maintaining Women's Rights (my body, my choice) in her right for an abortion, equality in the workspace, and full equality in general; • fighting for our citizens and trying to be the voice for everyone; • lowering our deficit; • focusing on Climate Change in every aspect from Agriculture and Permaculture, to species (on the brink of extinction) rehabilitation and reassimilation, to finding better pesticide and insecticide products that won't harm our critical, benign insects like pollinators and seasonal nomadic; to stopping Any New big Oil and Gas development agreements; • working with all our World Leaders to create policies best for us, as the United States of America, but also best for our World, globally; and so much more I would change so much of our marginalized communities, as I can surely stress that it's these citizens who take the brunt, from every level. The disparages of our system can seem unbearable and starting from the bottom, all the way to the top, one step at a time, is how we'll enact a more equitable society. But, I'm still too young (VP only!) We need to come together as the United States of America; namely, We all must work; if we've need supplement of our Govt., as Nationals, we must Volunteer at the least, strictly in maintaining our Society. Every one of us United States of America Nationals deserve Housing, a Job, and Financial Aid; maintaining one designated building in the heart of every downtown, in every City, to supply these needs will promote so much growth in such a rough market that we do currently face. Building upon our Democratic leadership that I follow in direct cadence, we must: • focus on Police Reform, Criminal Reform, and in fixing our Mental Health System; • building upon from the bottom to the top, the middle out, focusing on creating jobs in all sectors in Semiconductors, Food Processing, Manufacturing; and absolutely • focusing on bad banking practices and in fixing these issues, in predatory lending, triple loans, reliance on Corporations too big to fail; then there's even • Housing Reform: (1) Deed, per citizen, and or persons with dependents; negotiable, not mandatory; implementations:(1) House, (1) Apartment Complex, (1) Lease, (1) Corporation, (1) Entity, (1) building High-rise; simple! It's clear to see that the Real Estate market is leading our Economy and Society without a single thread of oversight, and it's with shortsighted policies like these that skew, misrepresent, and shatter the current divide of our current American society; • Immigration Reform: Process and Deportation with a negotiable Warning or added Criminal charges if the subject is already within the system and these undocumented crossings are continuous; • Refugee Asylum Reform: Strict Background Check and applicating process, Case Management oversight with weekly (1)+ hour appointments, mandatory job seeking (3)+ per appointment, Governmental subsidies never be granted ~(10)+ years, supplemental housing never be granted ~(10)+ years; • Filibuster Reform: Perfect Proposals, instrumental Acts, life-changing Bills, imperative Amendments that are yielded on the floor, with a system in place of voted-upon of Yeays or Nays, unless getting at least the simple majority in the House (218/435), and concurrently the simple majority in the Senate (51/100), they're dead on arrival, and the only pressure we have is filibustering. Eliminating motions that bring bills to the Senate floor, eliminating filibustering Amendments, and eliminating the no-effort filibuster, would give every Senator a voice but not a veto; • Homelessness Initiatives: 1...Public Loos, in every City! 2...Public electrical outlets, in every City! 3...Public LaborReady locales to work for (at least) $20.00/day, in every City! as these basic necessities are not only overlooked, but unprovided as it stands; Whereas, public defication is Illegal; Whereas, loitering is illegal; Whereas, businesses bar our public from even using their services without exchange(s) of monies; Whereas, finding (3) pennies is all that's promised from walking any citystreets for (24)-hours; • Corporate Credited Reform: Many Corporations have enabled Refinancing, Loans, credit APRs that at least double mandated-payments with massive interest hikes, risky Mortgages that necessitate paycheck-to-paycheck (20)-year payments, and these practices benefit mostly these Entities, while leaving so many of our fellow Americans in close to impossible arrears; • Judicial Reform: When so many massive discrepancies, credible, unjust lawsuits getting completely swept under the rug with dismissals, incredulous taking sides and one-sided judgements, we need an Infrastructure system in place to have oversight over these types of scenarios; a much more involved Supreme Court; • Financial Regulatory Reform: Bad banking practices affect our entire Nation on nearly all levels, from the bottom to the top, with a select few able to regulate. And, it is all-encompassing. Measures to assist our fellow citizens with a Risk Assessor, Payment Deliberator, and or an Accountant, who work for their clientele in reversing foreclosures, stopping bankruptcies, defusing exclusions, and in having a Judge to strictly mitigate Banking cases, will ease these monumental deficits; and so very much more! All our best! 🇺🇸 Team Mercury 🇺🇲

Very impressive episode! We need to become dedicated to finally doing what they didnt do in 1946! (Truman's failure is why we are like this today) Thank you both ❤

Excellent discussion

Well, Michael, after he started backing Trump and defending him, I lost ALL respect for him. If Dr Phil can't see right through DJT, he needs to retire !

Thank you from the bottom of my hesrt!

Another writer. Another opinion. TRUST IN THE LORD All knees will bow. Including those that don't invest a d are lukewarm Please Pastors should preaching to Love One Another.

I second EVERYTHING!

Unfortunately in the US, we will never be a color blind society.

Croatia europe here, I love and respect you both. Blessings

Implicit in their reaction to Obama's comment about Trayvon Martin was those white people automatically believed Trayvon was guilty... guilty of something... guilty of walking while black in a hoodie. None of these people could see passed that nor that George Zimmerman had stalked and killed an innocent team on his way to catch the 2nd half of the NBA All-Star game.

Yes Trump told them they could say the quiet parts out loud and they've been delirious ever since.

The R Party doesn't want help. They don't want to expand the Party... they are catering to the goal of white minority rule.

Preach it Tim !!!

Bravo Michael

From my perspective from europe and person who was in that word of faith/NAR, mumbo jumbo antichrist agenda, obssesion with "communism" in the USA is beyond me. This is fabricated "enemy", there was never something like that till trump comes on the scene. He is dictator as his followers, scary , we had one like that here in Croatia with his militia and army... wake up americans and rest of us "poor 3th countries"

When the watchman on the wall is fall asleep, these happen, trump happen, american churchianity happen and destroying faith of many in the process, even here in europe same GANG operate in order to come to power through "churches" like that who support rump cult, its a cult! This is planned long time ago by Alice Bailey and Helena Blavatsky, luciferian to the core. Check it out.

Mr. Steele and his colleagues gotta be the ones pushing back on Turning Points, Infowars, Daily Wire rhetoric. Liberals cannot do it.

06-18-2024 @ 6:53 PM, EST Hi Michael, What's your position on this economic information, and what ideas do you have to change it? Skip to content Watch US 2020 election: The economy under Trump in six charts 3 November 2020 By Reality Check team, BBC News Share BBC Claim: President Trump says he built the greatest ever US economy prior to the coronavirus outbreak and that now it's recovering faster than ever. Reality Check verdict: It's true the economy was doing well prior to the pandemic - continuing a trend which began during the Obama administration - but there have been periods when it was much stronger. The US economy was then hit by the biggest economic contraction ever recorded as a result of the pandemic. It has since bounced back strongly, but hasn't regained all its losses. We've looked at the economy in six key charts.   The latest numbers show economic output surged by an annualised 33% in the third quarter of 2020, following a record fall as a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic. The recovery, although strong, hasn't yet brought economic activity back to pre-pandemic levels. Mr Trump has said the recent recovery in growth is "the biggest in the history of our country by almost triple...that's bigger than any nation". Yes, it is the biggest quarterly increase, but by more like double - outdoing the previous peak of 16.7% in the first quarter of 1950. However, Mr Trump's comparison with other countries isn't right. From July to September this year, the economy grew by 7.4% in the US (33.1% is the annualised figure). This is less than Germany, Italy and the eurozone as a whole. If you look at economic growth from the start of the pandemic to the present, the US has done better than Europe but "worse that China and some other Asian economies" such as South Korea, says Neil Shearing, chief economist at Capital Economics.  During his first three years in office, President Trump oversaw an annual average growth of 2.5%. The last three years of the Obama administration saw a similar level of growth (2.3%). Prior to the recent post-pandemic fluctuations, if we look at growth rates as far back as comparable records allow, it's clear there have been frequent periods when the growth of GDP - the value of goods and services in the economy - has been significantly higher than under President Trump. In the early 1950s, for example, annualised GDP growth rate periodically exceeded 10%.   President Trump often highlights the rising value of US financial markets as a measure of success - in particular the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The Dow is a measure of the performance of 30 large companies listed on US stock exchanges, and it reached record highs at the start of this year. It then crashed as markets reacted to the coronavirus pandemic, wiping out all the gains made since President Trump took office. But the financial markets have been remarkably resilient and have largely recovered back to near pre-pandemic levels, although there have been recent wobbles.   Prior to the pandemic, President Trump claims to have delivered the lowest unemployment rate in half a century. This is true. In February this year, the rate stood at 3.5%, the lowest for more than 50 years. However, the Obama administration added more jobs to the economy, comparing similar time-frames. Under Trump, in the three years prior to the pandemic, there were an additional 6.4 million jobs. In the last three years under Obama, seven million jobs were added. As in many parts of the world, coronavirus lockdown measures very quickly led to soaring levels of unemployment in the US. The rate jumped to 14.7% in April, the highest level since the Great Depression of the 1930s. The US Labor Department says more than 20 million people lost their jobs, eliminating a decade of employment gains in a single month. Since the peak in April, unemployment has fallen back significantly to 7.9% in September.   Real wages (adjusted for inflation) grew throughout Trump's first three years in office - continuing a steady upward trend which began during the first of President Obama's two terms. This growth reached 2.1% per annum in February 2019, prior to the pandemic. This is lower than the real wage increases of up to 2.4% that President Obama oversaw in 2015 The rapid increase in average earnings then seen at the start of the coronavirus lockdown were largely as a consequence of the lowest-earning Americans losing their jobs at a disproportionate rate, following the economic downturn. With lower wage-earners out of jobs, the average hourly wage data skewed sharply upwards. Average wages have since started to fall back, as economic restrictions have eased.   President Trump claimed in 2019 that he had delivered "the largest poverty reduction under any president in history". In 2019, around 4.2 million fewer people were living in poverty in the US compared with the previous year, according to official data. This is a significant drop, but not the largest reduction in history. The US Census Bureau has published this poverty data since the end of the 1950s. The largest fall in a single year was in 1966 during the administration of President Lyndon B Johnson, when almost 4.7 million people were lifted out of poverty. The financial crisis of 2007/8 and subsequent economic downturn saw sharp rises in poverty, which only began to decline from around 2015 during the Obama administration, with a growing economy and rising levels of employment. Getty Images Food banks in the US face continued demand as unemployment due to the pandemic persists. The continued strength of the economy under President Trump (at least until the pandemic hit) has been matched by a continuing fall in the poverty rate. This overall national figure masks wide variations across regions and ethnic groups in America. In 2019, while 10.5% of the population was defined as living in poverty, the figure for black Americans was 18.8 and for white (non-Hispanic) Americans it was 7.3%. Figures for 2020 are not yet available, but are expected to show a sharp rise in poverty as a result of the pandemic.

I absolutely love PoliticsGirl! She speaks for me 100% on everything!!! Love you Girl!! Keep it coming!

I àlso was wrongly accused of stealing from a RiteAid store about 20 years ago. I picked up and paid for a prescription and a few other items at the pharmacy at the back of the store and on my way out was stopped ànd accused of stealing. I said I paid at the pharmacy and showed the receipt, but she didnt believe me and walked me back to the phatmacy to verify, where they agreed that i had paid there. Me, a white 52-year-old woman. Just sayin, it happens to us too. I love coleman, he is brilliant, talented and has immense integrity. Thank you, mr steele, for having him on.❤

Glenn puts out a hell of a fictional story

Love you're podcast Michael ! May we talk about Polling ? I've been voting in every single election for the past 58 years and Never once been Polled I am a progressive Democratic so Im guessing theres millions like me that have never been polled Im also active on Social Media. Could you please explain why and value you're explanation 😎

Bravo! Best show ever from real Americans. Dedicated to Democracy. Gratitude. Amazing. Share and rewatch often.❤❤ 4:56

His hypothesis isn’t well thought out, isn’t grounded in history, & doesn’t answer his own question.

Unlike most black Republicans i feel like Mr. Steele understands how to keep some conversations in the house.

Blacks forget. 12 years after the Civil War the Republicans asked the south to vote for them in the upcoming election. The North pulled out and did nothing while we Blacks were slaughtered and put back into slavery.

⭐❤🤍💙⭐

I actually appreciate Joe Biden's leadership, I am happy to vote for the Biden Harris ticket. I don't understand why some people feel like a president has to inspire them. These are extremely tough times because the Republican Party right now is negative, racist, and not working for the people. I thank Mr. Steele for being brave and speaking up for what is right. I love you Bakari, but please remember your president does not need to be all things, they just need to be hard working and have the people's best interest at heart.

In my lifetime I saw the Republican party change when Barack won and the tea party was born

Michael Steele I'm glad you couldn't say the mean things the other republicans have called Obama, Michele, and Hillary because I saw the tears in your eyes when Obama was inaugurated. Seeing your tears made me cry because I finally saw a republican with a heart, which is why I follow your podcasts. I'm one of those spiritual people who don't go to church anymore but I would go to any church to see John Fugelsang; please have him on more often.

This is one of the best group conversations you've ever conducted and I thank you so very much for it! You should take every means at your disposal to help distribute it widely so that everyone can see this presentation.

Good guest! It’s important to understand the motivations of black people and how we vote. This is a history that should definitely be studied and shared thoughtfully!

Black Men for Trump 2024

When I describe myself as a Southern liberal, bleeding heart Christian it leaves my evangelical friends confused. It shouldn’t. I just try to be a Christ follower which is why I left my church. I could no longer stomach it. I didn’t leave Jesus.

Great and empowering conversation. What state is Lewis in?

Great conversation and great information!

There was nothing non-Catholic about Fr Coughlan preaching in favour of fascism and Franco. The Catholic Church was full square behind Franco in the Spanish Civil War. It's why so many Catholics from countries like Ireland went to fight not for Spanish freedom and democracy, but on behalf of Franco and fascism. It's what Catholicism of the time called for, implicitly if not explicitly.

There's a huge difference between what happened in the US in the 1930s and '40s and what is happening now. Back then, one of the two main parties was not already taken over by the fascists. When only one of the two main parties today is still democratic and acts as if it's still politics as usual, and the other is aiming for authoritarian power and led by a self-proclaimed wannabe dictator, then the outcome is far less assured. American democracy is teetering on the brink, and there's no effective pushback.

I love Michael Steele’s podcast, but wish he had let his guest talk a little more
