>> i think without a doubt especially if you consider how much conversation gets used up talking about this issue. and, you know, i think it's, by the way, i think it's sort of tactical. i think a lot of leftists want to do this because sane people throw their hands up and say this is nuts. i'm walking out and not having a conversation and it drives people out of the political discussion which is very bad for the country. but it's good for sort of leftist ideology. i love the way that vivek handled that. and i think it's why vivek is so valuable to the discussion today. and why i think he's going to be part of the discussion for a long time no matter what happens. he starts off by chiding her for doing the lgbtq thing saying i don't see those as one thing. i see people as individuals. and then goes full federalist papers on her, starts talking about the tyranny of the minority which is just as bad as the tyranny of the majority. and that whole discussion, while we shouldn't really have to be having it, is something that like the founders envisioned and
explaining there, you can believe that trans people have tons of places they can be involved in in society. but not in girls' sports when they are boys pretending to the girls for purposes of winning women's championship. men and boys are bigger, stronger, faster than girls and women and it is true across the board. so this idea that democrats have been trying to sell. remember, harris, every single congress person in the house and every single senator who are democrats said this should not be allowed. that we shouldn't be trying to set basic rules as to who can participate and who can't. harris, we do this already. schools compete based on the size of the school. that is how many students they have. wrestling in high school kids compete based on how much they weigh. we have age restrictions. the idea that we wouldn't require that women's sports all be made up of biological women
despite his lead in the polling, despite the fact that governor ron desantis is increasingly trailing the former president, trump still sees him as a threat, and his analytics, his data probably suggests that as well. >> what about ron desantis? he is, obviously, dealing with some campaign struggles. just this week, he had some shakeups, including replacing his campaign manager. but on the ground we saw some hecklers. he did hit some snags during that fair side chat. is that reflective of how the people in iowa feel about him or how he might do in the caucuses? >> it's hard to say. for desantis and his -- and the pro-desantis super pac, they treated iowa as a must-win state. most candidates have a state they want to do well with. for desantis, it's iowa. at the same time, we shouldn't be surprised as we near the
would like. what happens if the ukrainians do not make significant gains in this counteroffensive pretty soon? >> well, look, i think they understand that time is not on their side. the weather is good right now in the summer. it will change in the fall and make it harder for them to maneuver on the ground. and certainly to operate drones and air defense systems this the air space over ukraine. they understand that. they are also running into the teeth of a well armed, well entrenched russian defensive set of formations. and they are doing the best they can to kind of get through that. i think that we shouldn't speculate or try to get ahead of what their operations might look like or what success looks like. they get to termdetermine that course. but they are making progress. it is not frozen, not a stalemate. it is not as far or as fast as president zelenskyy would like to go, but they are making some progress. >> you just mentioned that it will get harder in the fall and certainly into the winter. and what they are running up against from the russians.
10,000 people in the streets. jesse talked to a local activist about the lawlessness. >> dead bodies have been found multiple times in burntout vehicles sometimes bodies that have been sitting there for days unreported. so what we're seeing here places that have become bastions of human trafficking and rampant drug sale and they're allowed to exist by the city while the mayor gas lights us that things are not as bad as we believe them to be >> harold: jesse, did he give you a sense, did you ask about like, number one, not only why but what can we do to end this? i mean this encampment here. we shouldn't be supporting this, sounds almost like supported a bit. >> jesse: well, the mayor of oakland has watched this decay. and they have spent $120 million a year over the last five years and the population of homeless have doubled in oakland. so they're actually spending
joe biden is the president. >> did you hear that? of course he lost. it took years, and an exclusive interview with nbc's dasha burns but ron desantis stop sidestepping and finally admitted what the rest of us already knew. that cold hard truth. that donald trump lost the 2020 election. let's bring in jason johnson, a politics and journalism professor at morgan state university. and mark mckinnon, former advisor to both george gonna be bush, from cain. among the hosts of the circus on showtime. jason, i turned you first. on desantis admitting donald trump lost. is it too little too late? and what does that do to the mega voter that he needs? >> i've been saying this for months. i've said this all through last year stephanie. that literally this is going to be the first question any potential republican debate. who do you think when the presidential election? and here's the catch. you were always in a trap as a republican running against trump. because if you believe that joe biden treated. and stole the election from donald trump. then you have no justification for running. and if you thith august for a campaign that will barely make it to iowa if he's lucky. interview. about trump not winning one 35% of the base or more of the republican bel e convince the primary electorate that you change horses. because trump, even if you love the guy has problems winning the general election. and i think increasingly we see that the polling is going forward. and psychologi to drive trump crazy talking about and losing. >> jason, one strategy rhonda santos is not changing, we shouldn't be surprised.
against trump on the product is a loser. that's how you ultimately convince the primary electorate that you change horses. because trump, even if you love the guy has problems winning the general election. and i think increasingly we see that the polling is going forward. and psychologically it's going to drive trump crazy talking about and losing. >> jason, one strategy rhonda santos is not changing, we shouldn't be surprised. his signature, the anti woke agenda. even flow there's new polling out for the times that says gop voters are not even buying it anymore. so i lean into it? it's his only game? >> what else has he got? look, stephanie this is hilarious to me. i do not know when republicans are going to understand that going to war with popular culture doesn't really when you anything. it sounded cool when it was reagan back in the 80s. but mitt romney going after big, bird he probably lost every
streets. jesse talked to a local activist about the lawlessness. >> dead bodies have been found multiple times in burned-out vehicles. sometimes bodies that have been sitting there for days unreported. so what we're seeing here is it has been come human trafficking in rampant drug sale, has been allowed to exist while the mayor tells lives they are not as bad as they seem to be. >> what was it, did he give you a sense, did you ask about not only why, but what can we do to end this? i mean this encampment here? we shouldn't be supporting this. >> the mayor of oakland has watch watched this decay and they have spent $120 million a year over the last five years and the population of homelessness has doubled in oakland, so they are actually
deliberately strike once again? how concerning is it that russia is targeting civilians with this much precision? >> that's a level of perniciousness that i have to say, you know, is even striking for the russians. and of course, the russians have been going after civilian targets almost since the beginning of the war. and they have really stepped up their attacks on civilian infrastructure, residential complexes, homes, schools, hospitals, in recent months because they're trying to terrorize the ukrainian people. they're trying to break their will. they're trying to break their back and force public opinion against this war. it's not going to work, hasn't worked before, it's not going to work now. this idea of going after first responders after they've already hit a target, that does show a level of perniciousness that we haven't seen, yet we shouldn't be surprised that mr. putin would resort to even more desperate, even more evil tactics to try to get at the ukrainian people's will. >> i want to turn to some news just coming in to "the situation
