  • Lawlessness in Progress: Propaganda Parade

    Mary and Andrew, are ridiculous. It’s hard to imagine any American supporting the Seditious Six. It is clear the intent of their messaging. They should reap what they’ve sown. If you act maliciously, you may face negative repercussions. The phrase is also used in a spiritual context, originating from the Bible (Galatians 6:7).

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Honoring Veterans Day
Q: What does Congress have the power to do regarding war powers?
Congress has the authority to declare war and has mechanisms to require the withdrawal of armed forces if hostilities are declared or imminent.
Honoring Veterans Day
Q: What is supposed to happen if these were considered to be hostilities?
There would be a serious evaluation if the president had authority under domestic law and whether it was lawful under international law, leading to the conclusion that no strike ever would have been taken.
Listen to “Trumpland with Alex Wagner”
Q: What do you think about Trump's approach towards law enforcement in light of the pardons?
The idea that police officers are stewards of the Constitution is bullshit. They respond positively to Trump's call to act outside legal constraints.
Listen to “Trumpland with Alex Wagner”
Q: How are the pardons affecting you and your feeling towards Trump?
I can't speak for everybody, but I can speak for myself. The answer to that question would be yes. I think that Donald Trump is the only politician that we've seen in a long time who's willing to keep his word, but also who's not willing to back down when he's up against the wall.
You've Got Mailbag
Q: Why is there a need to go through the specifics of the classified material if it is known that much of it was classified?
The government must prove that the retained documents are national defense information, which requires examining the content of the documents to show that they were sensitive and closely held.
