As an Australian I can't apologise enough for what the Murdoch's have done to America. I actually went to college in America on a sports scholarship and did aerospace engineering. I love the place and love the people. I hate the horrible divisions that have been fomented in American politics and that an Australian born person has been in the middle of it. A bunch of my college friends were pre-law and they gave me an abnormal education in the US Constitution and over time I learned to appreciate it. These days I genuinely believe its one of the greatest achievements in human history on the simple basis that it not only enshrined basic personal rights for all of its citizens but those rights had an enormous affect on the rest of the world. I don't think many Americans realise just how influential the Bill of Rights has been in World affairs. However the US Constitution is not perfect and it needs to be cared for and respected and maintained because it does have one great weakness. *Its open to abuse by narcissistic people who will take advantage of the PERSONAL freedoms enshrined in the Bill of Rights and use those freedoms to deny other people of their freedoms.* I often joke that there are certain people who's view of liberty is to strip other people of their liberty. *One of those people is Rupert Murdoch.* The fact that Rupert Murdoch, family & friends through Fox believe they can arbitrate between who is and who is NOT a patriot is utterly disgusting. I heard Scott mention recently _"that people are entitled to their own opinions but they are NOT entitled to their own facts."_ *Nobody else has hurt that concept across the developed world more than Rupert Murdoch.* In Rupert's mind people are NOT entitled to facts or accurate information. In Rupert's mind people are entitled to agree with his opinions and be labelled a patriot or NOT agree with his opinions and be labelled UN-patriotic. *This is a concept that has ruined empires.*

[@youdontsay-ce2km]

Everybody who has died due to delayed or denied medical coverage was a loved one who was also murdered for cold cash. I like these guys take on most things, but these really shows there are two Americas.

[@prettyhatemachine101]

She says plainly she is lucky, and she's only upset that a human being was murdered in cold blood, and it might not be right that other CEOs maybe shouldn't be targeted for murder also. Is it such a messed up situation with insurance that we should be calling for the murdering of other human beings? I don't know the answer, but I know it's not that. They suck big time, they're awful, but it's the system that is broken. We can't forget a human being was shot dead point blank. We also can't forget the millions that die because insurance won't cover their treatments. Two things can be true at the same time. We don't need to lose our humanity in the process, just because we feel they are missing humanity. It's hard for all of us to process this situation because his heinous act has actually brought attention to the issue, so it's almost as if some good came of it, but the cost was too high.

[@littlejerryseinfeld4168]

@@prettyhatemachine101 no one called for it. it just happened and people reacted honestly. I'm not trying to argue about it but in a country where 12 people control 1 trillion dollars and the bottom half of society controls 2.3 % of the pie, I don't see alot of people breaking the bank to wax poetic about some guy who made 10 million dollars a year being at the top of a dirty system. Let's be honest with ourselves here, people die in terrible ways everyday, some are good people some are bad people. Most are a mix of the two. The best part about being dead (I assume) is that there's no more suffering for the dead. You can even hear it out of Scott + Jessica's own mouths... Scott raced back from London where he was duck hunting with his venture capitalist buddy and Jessica threw a multi-thousand dollar birthday party for a 3 year old - that's not just privilege that's privilege and security. If you think what just happened is everyone losing their humanity, you're not living in reality. The reaction to the situation is actually more like humanity than the people who are pretending to care about it. Yeah sure if you knew the guy or if you think what would happen if it was your relative/friend/whatever, people would be singing a different tune - but it is delusional thinking that a world with a false meritocracy and a system that's designed to bring more success to the successful and the inverse to the inverse, that anyone besides his family and friends cared.

I think the whole thing is about shifting tax burden to the poor instead of the rich. Note that he tied tariffs on Canada and Mexico not to economic policy, but to illegal migration. This is convenient, because it's an ambiguous boogeyman that can never be defeated - they can always say there is still illegal migration happening, so these tariffs need to remain.

Not all reactionary idiots are russian bots is probably the lesson, some are just too mad to slow down and read. The youtube comments section isn't quite a serious place for conversation anyway.

I usually agree with Scott most of the time, but “Israel is kicking ass” and “working to stabilize the region in the medium to long term” is a really bizarre take. Feels like the exact opposite is happening, especially in Gaza. Having next to no regard for civilian casualties (44,000 and counting) and deliberately blocking aid trucks isn’t exactly “kicking ass”. He’s said in other talks that he has family in Israel, and it shows. They’re both on point about Ukraine, though. I wish more people understood how good of a deal our support has been. It’s what’s made the risk of a larger conflict with NATO far lower, despite all of the fearmongering about WW3 that’s out there. Every single supposed red line Moscow has had so far has been a bluff. And they deserve to be called out on it. And while all that’s been happening, it’s convinced Europe it’s time to re-arm. Look at the difference in defense spending by country now vs. 4 years ago. That was one of Trump’s chief complaints about NATO in the first place. It’s the best case scenario for a full-scale invasion on NATO’s doorstep.

When a president gives a "Threat Level 1" or higher... government is no longer government. Test yourself: Watch your daughter or wife go through a forced birth per the current "government." How's that work for You? (not a question)

Jess can you believe that Murdoch’s Sky DownUnder is having Benny Johnson on as a pundit. Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The comments were off the wall.

I keep trying with these two, they keep turning me off. Super impressive VC yuk, british culture is not shooting birds, thats the class system

[@bryanmcknight1984]

it has a nice ring to it

[@CyrusMurphy]

Raging moderate progressives

[@kyleolson9636]

Yes, which is something they wouldn't deny. Moderate doesn't mean politically apathetic. It just means not being extreme.

I lose respect for anybody who spends thousands of dollars on a birthday party for a 3 year old. HORRIBLE!

[@eghansen21]

Scoff calling trump self centered is the pot calling the kettle black

[@Beretta249]

5 minutes of this bint was enough. Moving on, total waste of time.

[@frankmaxwell2052]

Who agrees or disagrees with this statement? Democrats would win in 2028 if we had some combination of Galloway, John Stewart, or Bill Mahr on the ticket for the left. Whomever doesn’t make the cut should be Press Secretary. I know that seems like a small job for people I just put forward for the biggest role, but all of them have awesome communication skills and they are all on the record in an abundance, criticizing the far left. Add Jessica to the mix as the head of the DNC and you’ve transformed the party to an unstoppable force of common sense. Mayor Pete as Secretary of State. Someone like Cheney or Adam K as Sec of Defense. They’ve got Elon, we should have Soros and Cuban backing us financially with Cuban getting Sec of HHS. AOC, Shapiro, Gretchen W, Newsom (as long as he spends the next four years cont to move towards the middle), Bernie, Raskin, and similar folks being the mouthpieces in congress to talk to reporters is a strong group of effective communicators who show up ready to counter when necessary. The old guard has got to go because the names above in the positions I stated would see the kind of electoral wins not seen since Regan. It would also force the right to walk away from MAGA for good and usher in a better Conservative Party which is necessary for functional governance.

We get better information about the Russian economy from Joe Blogs than any democratic congress critter or national news outlet

[@iconifyme]

I'm just curious what more warning signs Scott needs to take the threat Trump poses more seriously. It seems that how you see the threat depends on which class you fall into.

[@mw354]

Every venue / rally Trump had promised something different.

[@montpelier28]

Tim Miller so funny & I didn't know they had become engaged, cool.

[@whoami1980]

Jess is cute AF - especially without much makeup

[@MissUnderstood_Mom]

@33:00 this is why we MUST back Ukraine. trumps answer the other day is not good.

[@marilyn6905]

Please take care when speaking about Medicare & Medicaid as they are not the same programs!

[@michaelfordmichaelford2196]

23-30 winning! i can see!

[@lindafoss3823]

I wanted Elizabeth Warren to be Senate leader. Since we didn't get her for president.

[@caferacer9768]

Never take advice from anyone who thinks AOC is leadership material. It was nice for once to not hear Scott bitchin about the running costs of his Gulfstream g700. .

[@e.vanderee]

Senator Tarlov has a very good ring to it!!!!

[@omarwright7942]

United has an AI algorithm rejecting claims.

[@PetePineda]

Scott ignoring about future blowback from meddling in other countries

[@Zachattaqr]

The elitism on full display this episode 🥸

[@lucky_spyke]

Not a fan of Tarlov. Too bad because Galloway is an interesting guy 🤷‍♂️
