TLDR News Interviews Mitch McConnell
This weekend we attended the Munich Security Conference, where we met with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. During the conversation we talk about future US arms shipments to Ukraine and the threat posed by China.
The Munich Security Conference is the world's leading forum for debating international security policy. It is a venue for diplomatic initiatives to address the world's most pressing security concerns. In 2023, under the new chairmanship of Ambassador Christoph Heusgen, the MSC will once again welcome a series of high-ranking international decision-makers and experts, including heads of state and government, ministers, and diverse voices from international organizations, civil society, the private sector, and the media.
Thank you to MSC, UA-cam and Google for inviting us to attend, as well as the team in Munich who proved so helpful

    There is no question that Trump is unfit for office...not just because of his mental decline but more because he is a lifetime criminal who wants to be a dictator. So that only leaves Biden. It saddens me that the Democrats have not selected one of their many able, younger politicians for the presidency but Biden it is.

    Our voting system has throughout its entire history been a two party system. The Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans (1790-1820), the Democrats and Whigs (1821-1860), the Democrats and the Republicans (1861-1928), the Democrats and Republicans (1929-2016). We're on our fifth party system because in America it's the coalitions of the major voting blocks that change, not necessarily the parties, and form large coalitions that determine the parties' interests which leads to very big elections because you have almost all voting groups represented. For example, the Black community until the sixties were staunch Republican voters because they were the party of Abraham Lincoln. The Catholics used to vote Democrat because they were economically liberal, but because the Democrats have become very socially liberal have been voting Republican. The biggest switch in recent years is private sector unions, where many used to vote Democrat, but during the 2016 election turned out in huge numbers for Trump. Minor parties are usually single issue parties. The Prohibition Party (yes, it still exists) is very socially conservative and yes, still promotes the prohibition of alcohol. They usually don't take into consideration the full context of the large voting blocks that make up the major parties, but the major parties will take up the causes of smaller parties if it suits their party's interests. For example, the Constitution Party has many values represented by the Republican Party, but because of their more religious leanings than most are comfortable with, it's easier to run as a Republican. The same thing happens with the Greens and Socialists who have ended up voting Democrat.

    This was really clear. Thanks. I went to Boise and Sun Valley in the last few years. In the wealthy parts of Idaho there are two layers, one of which is poor, the other is wealthy. In Sun Valley many of the servers etc were basically homeless. In Boise I found a community that is becoming kind of New Age. Cour d lane is like that too. I just don’t know how Idaho can support more poor counties.

    Some parts of this video were good. Maybe the best was showing evidence that for outlier groups, their cultural, rather than their economic, policies are the most important in determining which party they'll vote for. However, this video ignores so many things that it's frankly ridiculous. 1. It is essential to look at voting procedures, which can broadly be divided into two groups: winner-take all (first-past-the-post) OR something like proportional representation or ranked choice voting. Ignoring how the former favors two main parties is lazy. Simply adding 2 more parties to the US will make almost no difference if winner-take all (first-past-the-post) is used to determine the victor in single-candidate constituencies. 2. There is plenty of coalition building that takes place in US politics as well as in other "two-party systems". It generally focuses on intra-party rather than inter-party coalitions. In the US and other "two-party systems", there is a great deal of intra-party coalition building. 3. Mentioning Mike Pence as any kind of national leader is just plain stupid. He has never had any national following. He was chosen as a nothing-candidate to be vice president. Mentioning him as a possible leader, even in a hypothetical case, shows us the low quality of the poll and research that this video relies on. 4. The four main political currents that this video mentions are, in fact, represented in various ways by the two main US parties. There are all kinds of regional variations: a left-of-center candidate in New York or San Francisco is not the same as one in Alabama. This is often obscured by the intra-party coalition building that inevitably takes place in "two-party systems". 5. The video constantly confounds "parties" and "candidates". The video says, "There is no one to represent these two groups," which is false. It is true that the center of each of the two main parties is not in the upper left or the lower right quadrant, but in the US, people vote not for a party but for a candidate, and there are, contrary to what this video claims, many candidates in each of these two quadrants. This is especially true for Democrats who are, by national standards, more conservative than the party as a whole. This also used to be true several decades ago for Republicans who were more liberal than the national average for the GOP. The contrast with the UK (the home country of the narrator) is relevant here. In the UK system (and more generally in Westminster type and parliamentary systems as a whole), for elections to the legislature, people vote for a party, not for a candidate. This is one reason why often candidates can be shifted from one constituency to another. It's also why, in general, prime ministers are elected indirectly (as is the case with the US) than directly. Generally, it is the party in the legislature with the majority or plurality of seats which is asked to form a government. Many Europeans themselves are unaware that they have indirect elections of their prime minister; they mistakenly believe that the US does (via the Electoral College) but that they have direct elections of their head of government. In general, they do not. The narrator ignores that there is a considerable degree of variation in the US even among the same party. The system of primary elections is one means that tries to bridge this deviation from the stated, official platform of a party and the actual politics of candidates on the level of the local constituency. It allows people in that constituency to choose as their candidate from among people with a wide range of positions. The narrator, by constantly confusing "party" and "candidate" (a confusion which would be less of a problem in a system like the UK's where there is less intra-party variation than in the US, and far less of a problem in European parliamentary systems with proportional representation, where there is even less intra-party variation, but more inter-party variation), continually sees gaps and absences ("there is no party for this quadrant of political values!!!"") when there are, indeed, candidates for those various combinations of liberal and conservative, economic and cultural.

    Form two or three new States where the citizens can be properly represented and therefor gain their Constitutional rights. These three new States would help balance the diversity of State land masses as well as having each new State consist of similar local geographies so their special interests can find representation at the Federal level. Don't loose the opportunity presented by a new Federal restructure to accomplish this overdue restructuring. The East Coast is made up of many smaller States while the West has much larger States. This needs to be re-balanced for fair Federal representation of the People. Idaho could take on or give up land as needed to find an optimal outcome. Currently the people living in these areas have no effective representation and are therefore economically compromised by no fault of their own. Fixing this problem is long overdue and should be sponsored at the Federal Level as part of it's authority to Regulate Interstate Commerce, which is an enumerated responsibility.

    Let's tell the truth. Women are realizing it adds no value to their lives to go from taking care of themselves, paying their own bills, pursuing their interests, and enjoying their communities to becoming domestic slaves for men- to clean up after them, raise their kids, have no time for lives or interests of their own anymore, and often STILL having to work full-time jobs. And then after they waste their best years doing all of that, men leave them for younger women and fight them in divorce courts. That's ON TOP OF living under a late-stage dystopian crapitalist empire that has absolutely no safety net and refuses to even provide basic things in return for our taxes like healthcare and affordable housing. Yet people are still confused about why birthrates are falling? 😂 Make it make sense.
