Infrastructure needs in west virginia. he doesnt like all the green-new-deal stuff that -- thats in the biden plan. but i can very much see joe biden making a deal or doing whatever is necessary to get an infrastructure bill that brings back millions to west virginia. channeling his best memory of robert c. byrd. >> jonathan, quickly, before we go. will there be something on voting rights that joe manchin will support and join the democrats on in the senate? >> yeah. he supports the john lewis v...

Also. no shade either of them, they got an important conversation started. but both of their wealth taxes, you know, neither crossing above a 10% year threshold. another wealth tax weve actually shrunk these fortunes year to year. because these folks are in returns well above 10% physically in a given year. so your billion dollars becomes one point $2 million next year and so on and so forth. so it is time to actually go beyond the warren and sanders tax plans on wall and really start talking ab...

October after a plant refueling outage but the company says without a full analysis its too early for them to say whether or not a complete shutdown of the reactor is needed and the company says the current readings, current levels of radiation on site are below the chinese government threshold. all that information and explanation still do not address some of the more pressing questions raised by the edf subsidiary. it is in a memo dated june 8th this french company said the situation posed an ...

Mitch mcconnell who is basically saying, i dont care what the constitution says, i dont care what the norms and rules of the president of the senate says, im not going to let this happen because im about power more than im about upholding the constitution and rules and laws. and this is a consistent pattern. more than anything, this is why this thing is broken. this is the man who said im 100% against biden moving his agenda. as someone from the obama world, i remember very clearly mitch mcconne...

In roughly a year from now. you have big ambitions for nato�*s strategic vision. youve mentioned everything from taking on china, to cyber and even space as a new frontier for nato. and yet nato still isnt financing itself in terms of commitments from its member states. most member states are still not meeting the threshold that nato requires from them for defence spending. ambition is one thing. reality is quite another, isnt it? well, allies are delivering. also, we made the commitment in 20...

Ramping up his military deployments in the arctic. nothing that nato has done in terms of deterrence has changed vladimir putins strategy. well, the main purpose of nato is to make sure that no nato ally suffer the same kind of aggressive actions that we have seen against ukraine and georgia. and we have been able to protect, preserve peace, prevent any armed military attack against any nato ally for more than 70 years, including since 2014, after we saw the illegal annexation of crimea. so that...

He argues that would put some of the things manchin wants to be put in play while still having ideological legislating, i wouldnt what you think about that idea. >> im not sure about that. unfortunately, the threshold of 55 or 60, i think, would be used in the same way that the current filibuster is used, which is just to basically frustrate every single measure that a tiny minority might oppose. now, if you were talking about maybe a speaking filibuster, at some lower threshold, perhaps that mi...

Accountable. and the various penalties associated with breaking our laws are well-known, but beyond that, we have to put guard rails in place to prevent this from happening again. that starts with changing doj policy. it then goes to firing prosecutors who actually thought it was okay to issue these secret subpoenas against members of congress. and third, it might require legislative reforms that prevent any future administration from doing the same, because, you know, any assumption that only p...

With the chinese sent a petition for a waiver of assistance, if you will, to the department of energy in the united states. they filed that petition in hopes of getting likely some technical support. however, they then followed up with two more requests. one as repeatedly as last week. in it, they worded this as an imminent raid logical threat. they accused the threat of raising the threshold, the limits for what is acceptable and safe in that region. now it all sounds terrifying and alarming bu...
