A highlight from Vivek Ramaswamy talks national security, China, and Russia with Hugh
"Welcome to today's podcast sponsored by Hillsdale College all things Hillsdale at Hillsdale .edu I encourage you to take advantage of the many free online courses there and of course a listen to the Hillsdale dialogues all of them at hugh for Hillsdale .com or just google Apple, iTunes and Hillsdale Welcome back America. I'm Hugh Hewitt inside of Studio North Joined now by Vivek Ramaswamy. Vivek is the author most recently of Woke Inc. inside corporate America's social justice scam He's a graduate of Harvard College of Yale Law School, which is pretty good for a kid from Cincinnati, especially a St. X kid. Very successful biotech investor now runs Strive. Of course He is best known for sustained attacks on woke ideology and for his very surprising 2024 campaign he's in third place if you use the RealClear politics He's in second place if you use some regular polls. Vivek, welcome back. It's good to see you again Good to see you. How are you? I'm great now. I've already told the audience we chatted on Friday You did not want a pre -interview. I want people to know that but I always talk to candidates so that they're not ambushed by me We had a good conversation This is a national security interview Let me begin by saying you're going to the Nixon library on Friday And you're Belinda to give a speech about national security. Why did you pick my favorite presidential library? Well, I think it would commemorated my foreign policy vision Hugh I'm actually gonna really reorient our foreign policy away from the model of liberal hegemony Back to a model of actual I would say protection of the homeland a modern Monroe doctrine But a big part of my strategy is to pull Russia out of its military alliance with China Russia China together outmatched the US in every area of major competition Hypersonic missile capabilities ahead of that of the US a larger nuclear stockpile in Russia's case Naval capabilities in many ways that exceed ours in China's I know that's something we can debate but together they outmatched the US And so what I want to do is the reverse maneuver of what Nixon did in 1972 what did Nixon do he pulled Mao Zedong out of Bresin have led USSR's hands right now I believe Putin is like the new Mao. Did we trust Mao then? No, we did not should we trust Putin now? No, we do not but we can trust each of them not to actually follow their own self -interest And so that's how I plan to end the Ukraine war Do a deal that yes does give Putin concessions but in return for requiring Vladimir Putin to exit his military partnership with China and there are echoes of Nixon's diplomacy in 1972 that I thought the best place to do this was actually at the Nixon presidential library itself And so we'll be going into far greater depth Hugh But that just gives you a sense for why we chose that as the location to do it Well, we can go into great depth here because we're not rushed and I don't want to rush We're gonna play what we don't play on the air today tomorrow on the program so we don't have to rush I want to ask though You're you're going out to Nixon land in Yorba Linda as we approach the 50th anniversary of what I think is Richard Nixon's greatest foreign policy accomplishment The Yom Kippur war is that something with which you're familiar and how he acted there? I Am though that was not part of the inspiration for my actual going to the Nixon library was more the Reverse maneuver with respect to China. That's my case when Israel was on the ropes in 1973 Nixon said send everything that can fly We didn't have a treaty obligation to do so But he did and he saved them from the invasion by the Syrians the Jordanians and the Egyptians How is that different from sending everything that can fly not men not soldiers not women not Marines But weaponry is what Nixon sent to Israel in 73 50 years ago I gather you want to cut that off to Ukraine now if Putin will do a deal.
Mike Gallagher Podcast
Fresh update on "belinda" discussed on Mike Gallagher Podcast
"The Mike Gallagher Show. It's disingenuous to claim that the biases that are exhibited on Fox News are any different from the biases exhibited on MSNBC. It's difficult to suggest that these corporations operate as anything other than mouthpieces for their affiliate owners in Black Rock and Vanguard. Have to take responsibility for our own perspective. I've been on that MSNBC, mate. It was propagandist nutcracker-y up there. In the ReliefFactor.com studios, here's Mike. Good job, guys. This is Karl Jackson and for the great Mike Gallagher. That audio of Russell Brand was so timely. They are going after that guy like nobody's business. Okay, guys, we gotta get our conservative cardio on. There's two big points that I'd like to make in a very short period of time in order to do just that. I also wanna play another audio clip for you. This is Joe Biden speaking to a heckler, interrupting his speech. He says, if you shush up, I'll meet with you. Audio clip number eight. Por favor, Eric. It's not easy. No! Why have you yet to declare a climate emergency? The country of Arizona has died. The country of Arizona has died. Why don't you wait, hang on a second. I'll be happy to meet with you after I speak, okay? Why have you yet to declare a climate emergency? Look at him, look at this guy. Look at this guy. I tell you what, if you shush up, I'll meet with you immediately after this, okay? Seriously, looking at that guy, do you think that guy could handle a debate? And quite frankly, I would even be nervous to debate him because I'd be afraid that people would be so sympathetic to the guy. Just, I mean, if you were watching on Salem News Channel and you saw that, that was absolutely horrendous. Let me say this too, in regards to the last caller. I'm so glad, Belinda, that you called in and forgive me, perhaps I should have kept you on a little longer here, but here's what I believe people have done when it comes to Trump and Biden. And we do this, we're human. You make a mistake, you don't want to be wrong. And so you find the false in other people instead of looking at the, or the other opponent or the other candidate, instead of looking at the faults of your own candidate. When we do that, we do that with ourselves as well. I mean, it's human nature. But you could even say, hey, I think Trump is corrupt. I think he was, there's no evidence of that, but you could say that, you could say that, but then you would still need to look at your candidate. But because people have, this is why I don't play the Trump to Santis. I'm gonna, listen, man, I'm selfish. I'm a we, the people person. I want these fools to scrap for me. That's the way that I feel. Sorry, I want the best ideas. And I want to know that the next generation is going to love and be secure in America, the America that I grew up in. I know we've got a long fight for that, but that's the way that I view this stuff. That's the way that I view it. So that's why I, for one, I know there's a lot of people, oh, Trump, just wrap it up, everybody. Listen, guys, I'm sorry, we're not in England. That's cray cray. I'm sorry, we're American. Let's act like it. I just think that's so crazy. But getting back to this point with the callers that called it, and I believe the same is true for COVID. People got the jab. People don't want to admit that they're wrong. But see, you were so outraged about Trump and all the media said about him and all the corruption and Ukraine hoax and the Russia collusion hoax that they have you believing that was a lie. It was actually projection because that's what Biden was doing. But you were so mad and you felt so righteously angered against Trump and all the lies that they were spewing against him. You don't want to believe that it is your guy that's actually the corrupt one. That's what's happening. That's what Belinda's call was about. All right, moving on. DeSantis is going to be the guy, I mean, I'm sorry. Newsom is going to be the guy. Newsom and DeSantis to debate in November. You think these headlines are just a coinky-dink when the Democrat party was giving Newsom grief, what, a month or two ago? Like, why did you do this, man? Why are you doing this? And now all of a sudden he's out there. He goes on, even after the debates, does another appearance with Sean Hannity. Do you think that's an accident by Gavin Newsom? You think that's a, no, no, I'm not going to run. Kamala Harris and Biden, all the strides that they've made to destroy the country. They've been doing an amazing job destroying the country, just like I've destroyed California, but I'm not going to won. I don't want a piece of that action. Give me a break, man. Another headline, Governor Newsom raises minimum wage for fast food employees to 20 bucks an hour. That just means that California is going to get even worse. There's going to be more crime. There's going to be fewer jobs because you can't arbitrarily set a minimum wage price when you don't know what the heck businesses are making. This is the dumbest thing ever, but people buy into this, oh man. Listen, minimum wage is not a living wage. It's a starter job. Watch the old ladies, I see that. Yeah, literally the vast majority of times, those people that are there working those jobs, I think it's like somewhere between two, three, four, 5% maybe that are supplementing, they're there, but they're supplementing, actually the vast majority of times, they're supplementing household incomes, meaning there's somebody that lives in their house that makes more than them, they're just in there to add some income to the household. The vast majority of people working minimum wage jobs is still overwhelmingly far exceeds 90% are still teenagers, pimple-faced teenagers. But this is the lie the left wants you to believe. And then this ties to union labor wages. So union labor wages will go up. It's all a ploy, but Gavin Newsom is doing it. Newsom signs major gun tax legislation. Newsom ensures, what does he ensure basically that perverted books will stay in the California library system? These headlines, these headlines are no accident. Kamala Harris, they don't want her to be president. Well, she's a black woman, identity politics. Democrats won't throw a black woman under the bus. What? Excuse me. The same Democrat party that gave us the war on poverty, the same Democrat party that won't admit that they were pro-slavery, that they formed the KKK as a terrorist organization to terrorize black and white Republicans alike, that Democrat party? The Democrat party that stole Dwight Eisenhower's civil rights ideas, used them as their own in 1964, that Democrat party, the Democrat party that has intentionally kept minority groups, including and more particularly blacks in poverty for over a half century, that Democrat party won't throw a black chick under the bus? What? I'm sorry, that doesn't fly. Here's why she won't be president. America and Kamala Harris will continue to suffer from bad policy decisions in the next three years. Biden is horrible. This chick is worse.

I wasn't able to be vulnerable enough to be able to show my sensitive side. Because i never had and i wouldn't say never very strong word has enabled to hold on. Hold that space for long enough to be able to grabs. A guest grabbed my attention enough for me to stay in tune in synchronized with individual. But i've learned now it's not about me. Holding onto something as in control relationship is more about embracing that energy because we're all ours energy like you. Your body's not even real thompson energy. The time where i need to be in holding space one hundred percent and being true to who i am individ- source of being tapped in. Because either you're detached or you are in tune you can't be both right so thinking and being. You can't do both at the same time.

My own. true needs wants desires to really embrace your energy and embracing an understanding that counterpoint. It for what it is. And that's true love and really holding nat space not holding you.

We agreed that a hypnotherapy session was a great way to do just that we can play the movie forward in a negative and positive way. For example. many people find themselves at a crossroads in life hypnotherapy will allow them to play the movie forward to something where they will be if the carry on drinking for the next ten years as opposed to where they could be if they were all free. Doing this somber hypnosis can be so powerful. We discussed the difference between hypnosis coaching.

"About the bar online, Cristano Belinda says she immediately signed up to join, she says it's a great post vaccine perk. I think the membership be is worth the peace of mind coming here and knowing that there's like minded people who have done everything that they're supposed to do in the past year they've social distance, they warned the mouse that got in the test. Worried about my cold. This has like a wearing his mask of the chin strap ons of wearing it as a mask. It's the desire for space. That's the safest humanly possible. The co owners Ari Schindler, and Jonathan Katz, were going for with reopening the bar formerly known as the other door as this club called Risky business. Name is not accidental. We call it risky business for a reason, and it's not that we accidentally said the quiet part loud or something like that. This is about people who want to manage their risk. Period, right? And it's an environment where we feel that there's a large group within the population that wants this way of managing their risk. The idea for the vaccine only space came from frontline worker friends who've seen the worst of the worst throughout the pandemic. It's a horror show for them in the hospital with you. No, no, no. No rooms available and people on ventilators and so on, and they came to us, and they basically just said, you know, when is there going to be someplace where we could go to blow off steam? When is there? How do you join exclusive Club? It's his quickest paying a one time $10 membership fee, filling out some paperwork. And coming by for an idea and vaccination check. But there's a catch. All prospective members must sign an agreement saying you could be sued for 10 grand if you're lying about your vaccination status. I checked in on the viability of those legal threats. What Thomas a lens Ah, partner at the Atkinson and Elson law firm in Pasadena and advisor to businesses on handling covert 19 risks. He says the threats and even the bar itself operate in a legal gray area. We're in the middle of the developing situation, and I think a lot of business people are trying to adapt. They may be changing your business model or at least what they call their business model. It's not at all unusual for government to take a different view of the situation. I wouldn't be surprised to see the county or perhaps some other regulator take interest in the situation. In other words, is this legal? Well, maybe My co owner, Ari Schindler, says there's no explicit rule banning private clubs for the vaccine that the pandemic Bar hasn't gone without detractors. Of course. Someone's social media called the bar irresponsible or even teamed them discriminatory. Here's John on the matter. It's funny, and you probably don't talk about this, but I mean the number of times we've been called Nazis just because you know we're demanding people's paperwork. But at the same time we do have that. Almost libertarian perspective of This is the risk profile that we can provide you. Make it make decisions that air Comfortable to you. Ari says others were turned off by the membership aspect of the club. It's just funny that people you know here that it's private and and see that we have very well designed membership cards that John and graves and think that it must be some kind of elitist thing when it's exactly the opposite. Point says the co owners is not to be exclusive. It's a place where anyone who's vaccinated can run free. This is a bar like before a pandemic. Or like after pandemic, and there are no rules. There are no there are no rules related to mask their no rules related to distancing. There is none of that. This is a normal place, and it's made normal by the fact that there is 100% vaccination. It's really that simple. It's unclear whether other bars will follow in the footsteps of risky business. But in the meantime, let that champagne flow He said. Ow! I'm Danielle to require Requiring of ax to get into a bar or a section of seats of the Hollywood Bowl is one thing. But what about requiring the vaccine to keep your job? Well, now that the VAX is widely available, some companies have found that it's no longer good enough to encourage employees to get shots to return immunity. We're starting to see Some say you have to get a covert 19 vaccine to stay employed. Not exactly a popular idea with those who are more hesitant to get that shot. So is it good business is that even legal with me not to talk about it is Kcrw's Kaylie Wells. She's been covering the vaccine rollout since the early days, and she joins me right now. Hey, Kaylee. Hey, Steve. How popular is this idea by the way to require an employee to get a shot. Well, I actually started asking about it a few months ago, and it's really on Lee started to become relevant. I mean, the vaccine on Lee became widely available a few weeks ago, so if it's a trend, we're kind of at the beginning of it. At the moment, you're just seeing sort of a brave few announcing that they'll do it, and it's kind of in sectors that you would expect health care education. I did speak with a long term care facility who started requiring it a couple months back. I spoke with people working at Cal State campuses. They're going to require it as soon as the FDA switches from emergency to full vaccine approval, so Gaining popularity. I would say you have they sought full approval yet they're going to write. They're going to were still in the process of those long term trials. You can't really seek full vaccine approval until those have been proven to be safe. So we're not at that stage yet. Right.

Not just as an academic to have such a substantive take on what's been going on during the trump years before trump years where we're going to go after the trump years is also not just rooted in your research but it's it's based in your own life so tell us a little bit about that. Yeah i let me just say thank you for that flattering introduction and just. It's it's an honor to be here. So i've been looking forward to this for a long time and i'm really grateful so you know for me i. I grew up in north orange county. My father's japanese-american my mother's white woman from tennessee. And they met in the middle He's from hawaii and we grew up. Your belinda placentia fullerton area. I did not grow up religious. My dad was was culturally. Buddhist is what i would say he. He mowed the lawn. At the buddhist temple on maui in inkatha louis he. He went to japanese school there. But when i was thirteen and ask them about what it meant to be a buddhist to give me a book and i read it and i thought after i read it he would discuss it and i realized later. He gave it to me because he didn't know anything that was in it. He just didn't want to have me ask questions about what it meant to be a buddhist at fourteen. I had a very extreme conversion at a evangelical mega church and a conversion meant that i went from the kid who was hanging out with other teenagers behind the movie theater. Smoking and drinking and doing that kind of stuff to within months standing in front of the movie theater asking people if they knew my savior the lord. Jesus christ and if they knew where their so would be return ity. Tell us a little bit about how that dramatic conversion took place. I was invited to wednesday night. Bible study at rose drive friends church. rose drive is part of that network of quaker churches that richard nixon grew up in so i i was invited to that church by a girlfriend and i thought you know i'm fourteen. There's not a lot of ways to see your girlfriend on a with night off to pragmatist and there's no way mom can say no to this. If i want to go to church she's gonna say yes. So let's do it. This is a great plan She dumped me very quickly but that youth group became my second home. I found there what you would find in the ninety s at youth groups all over the place. Young cool hip leaders. They had tattoos. They played the guitar. We have a lot of fun games. The bible messages weren't boring and all of a sudden the existential angst. I had about the meaning of life and the depression that i faced throughout my entire childhood. I found answers found solutions to my condition. In jesus in god and so a very quickly i went from a kid probably hanging around folks who are going down the wrong direction drugs and alcohol and other stuff too when my mom asked me what i wanted for christmas on my When i was sixteen. I asked her how much she was gonna spend. She told me i said mom. I want you to give me that money. And i'm going to buy as many pamphlets and tracts and bibles as i can for people in nepal and i'm going to send them there because that's what's important and that's why how we should be using our money. Now i gotta ask you bread. Did your parents on the one hand. I'm sure they're going well. This is nice. He's not hanging around with those bad people anymore. The water bozos right. Okay right these these these yoga right but but at the same time is dislike. Did our son just joined a cult. So it's exactly what you said. For mom. there was times. I think she was relieved. But you know when your son is saying. Hey i don't buy me letterman's jacket for the basketball team. Send the money to nepal for bibles. I think she kinda wish. I was back to the guy getting caught with the kid. Smoking pot again. I mean she was kind of like. This is a little extreme. It was a lot harder for my dad. My dad's japanese-american guy. He grew up in the cradle of asian american. You know Communities on maui. His life was in the buddhist temple even though he he really didn't wasn't a practicing buddhist so for me to join a mega church especially church. That was ninety percent. White was really hard for him and it took a lot of convincing to let me go to the wednesday night. Bible study or the retreat or the youth group party or whatever.

The Indigenous Practice of Controlled Burning to Prevent Wildfires
"Four out of five of the largest wildfires ever recorded in California have occurred this year five, million acres of land have burned on the west coast. As officials look for solutions they're turning more and more to the native Americans who have long been forced out of tending to the land they once stewarded. So successfully, specifically officials have begun working more with tribal leaders on prescribed burning knowing when and. Where to intentionally burned parts of the forest in a manageable way to prevent out of control wildfires in the future quoting the New York Times long before California was California native Americans used fire to keep the land where they lived healthy that meant intentionally burning excess vegetation at regular intervals during times of the year when the weather would keep blazes smaller in cooler than the destructive wildfires burning today. The work requires a deep understanding of how wins would spread flames down a particular hillside or win lighting a fire in a forest would foster the growth of certain plants and that knowledge has been passed down through ceremony in practice. But until recently, it has mostly been dismissed as unscientific and quotes. Various organizations run by native American, communities have worked with other conservancy nonprofits and private landowners over the years to help them repair forested areas and make them more sustainable and in some parts of the southeastern United States prescribed fire has already been in practice officially by state governments for several decades. But on the West Coast, the practice has long been suppressed quoting again over the course of California's long colonial history native Californians were violently systematically systematically stripped of the ability to tend the land they had lived on for centuries as white settlers pursued gold, timber, and territory. This, dark history unfolded while modern firefighting agencies and techniques were formed under the heavy influence of Europeans who wanted to maximize timber halls said, Mary Huffman director of the indigenous. Peoples Burning Network the Nineteen Twenty article written by William B. Greeley in the Timmerman dismisses light burning as practiced by quote the Indians in various Western pine forests long before the advent of the white man end quote as fallacy propaganda that if he did would lead to the destruction of lucrative trees bill trip director of natural resources in environmental policy for the Kuru. Tribe Department of Natural, resources wrote in a piece for the Guardian the crew people were shot for burning as recently as the nineteen thirties. The idea of prescribed burning remained polarizing for decades as federal and state firefighting agencies were built up around the idea that wildfire was an enemy to be defeated using military-style tactics not a tool that could help prevent destruction and quotes. Now the US Forest Service and the State of California will be working intentionally with tribal leaders on prevention tactics including prescribed fire. It's a step in the right direction, but like everything will come with complications not only have the centuries of suppression built a deep mistrust, but the land itself has changed and new tactics accounting for climate change will need to be teased out while it's definitely a net positive Belinda Brown, a member of the Cosa Band of the Jima way ought to gain nation and travel partnerships director for the low Mukasey Restoration Project said quote we're getting that I told you so hard.

If you can cool the virtual sphere surface adolphus. The Andy has donated his prize. Money half is going to the NHS and half is Gordon to the players Relief Fund. So it's obviously for Good Kohl's and Kiki burdens won the women's event as well and I think she was actually due to defend. Muhtar to say she has succeeded into that are mixed in our love. I love that idea. She's she's the non virtual virtual back to back very innovative. Double D for a champion. But yeah I think yes kind of great to see I guess. Play his Getting involved I think one of the things that I think they could have done. Better way of is the had this common tree over the top of the of the players. Now I I was kind of the point where I think it's more insightful. And more interesting if you just let the play is very commentary because Y- They are tennis players that professionals at the end of the day you'll be ready. I think what bringing up level is kind of almost kind of getting them to kind of talk about the tactics or you know that sort of that sort of level that sort of layer that. Yeah well my sick on a Royal Corps And it's like if I was doing this show in real life. I would choose to go here because of X. Y. And Said Yeah. It could be more of an educational thing as well I think what I did. I cheat and they lost connection because I was watching on light-years addicts correct show. It was just having to could LE- sort of chats while they were waiting for everything to ten on again. Did you see the I think Diego Schwarzer was best. Play at Deborrah. The savvy FIDO's but due to a weak WIFI CONNECTION. Debry a sorry. Schwartzman had to concede walkway. So I mean I love that idea. The like I think that's going to be one of the VAD. The walkover reasons happens to the best of our good today that like even top tennis players have poor Wi fi and all safely on. La has had a bit of a Jake because he said that Rafa could play because he'd like injured his back reaching for his game controller. Which and everyone believes here. I think I mean I think we believed him as well. As we've always believed tweeted about be cowed they gig for Geria- saw and I thought this this off to the best of the fortunately that was not the case. Rafeh was able to play. But we'll just very gullible but yeah if they're going to do this again like I think it could cost you on. But just every now and again maybe they do in other Walden on like Wimbledon. I different surfaces. I assume this playstation game has all the different surfaces they do girl scout one. Couldn't they maybe federal workup? That yeah that I think it could work. I think it could coexist when the tools get back up and running. I wonder if it's a sort of you know in the in the grounds of the events and you have fans can go line up for like an autograph from players and I wonder whether you could be like. There's a stand somewhere grandson for example. Oh face off against some. I player playing tennis against them. Virtually Sake I could see that happening. I know there are a few comments. The game was almost up to like up to scratch And you know whether it's the improvements to be made with with the game and you know I think I think potentially peop- governing bodies like the ATP liked the W. H. E. A. Maybe they should be looking at partnering with Game's about to really kind of Mak- licensed game like fever. Because I think you know I think this is as you said. This is very new is almost kind of this was a test and you know. I think there is appetite for it but I think there's almost kind of a lot can be done on that so a product side of it. Yeah for sure. I'm sure that's an avenue. They could possibly see going for. It's an yeah I like the idea that you could maybe have a bit of a play on it while you are an event. Perhaps if during a rain delay or something and even on Joe we actually have some real tennis. That's happened this weekend in Germany. It's kind of the first actual players of setback on cool so they've done a little exhibition featuring Dustin Brown and seven other players including randomly the British benign. Yon Shouldn't ski. Who I think is based in Germany. Anyway so yeah. That's been happening this weekend. We'll see JEB. So you fall head of other countries. Getting back to normalcy. So they've been out to do this. Little event Neko blends at the Base Tennis Academy. It's GonNa oversee how necessary health and safety measures in place. So they've obviously not touching hands at the net. They're going to touch rockets instead. There's no ballboys fans line judges. They're obviously doing it. Very watered down version is not for any points or or anything. It's not count I guess. Prize money's involved. So it's I guess aimed at lower ranked players to to kind of keep them earning something during this time and I think it's only for players based within about ninety minutes of the event so it's overseas a very limited

Airbnb's Belinda Johnson to step down as COO, join board
"Now I've independently. They confirmed that that Belinda Johnson has been telling people for a few months now that family sort of sort of reasons to pile up for her to have a good rhythm district of want to spend more time away from the airbnb sort of executive team. She is at being added to the board. I should add. Add the board of directors. So she staying sort of within the trump which which I guess would be. Well I don't know I guess you can speculate one way or the other but at the very least it wasn't any sort of falling out that precluded certainly not release certainly not a falling out between her and Brian Jet Ski. I think he would sort of burn the place down before getting rid of her. It's that tight of a bond however I will say that. It's very clear if you just look at what we've reported sort of around around the sort of a large number of losses. The company has been taking on in the first half of this year. It went from a company in the first half of last year. Where was losing about one hundred hundred and fifty million to now losing about four hundred million in the first half of this year some of that is planned losses asses but I think it's also becoming clearer that the companies getting bigger more complicated and will need to sort of really figure out how to get? Its spending Dang under control if it's going to go into public offering with the story of you know we are a rare example of a money-making he making we. We've seen the markets react unfavourably to companies like we work and others that are just losing massive amounts of cash. I'll be Uber Brin lift. Haven't had a great time in the market so airbnb struck me as the one that could tell a slightly different narrative if you want to back a tech company. That isn't just an money. Inferno were were your guys girls totally and I think it's what investors I think will be trying to understand is will airbnb will be able to level up and be a company that was more than just one that had a great business model great you know sort of customer demand and you know in the first decade of its life and be able to sort of add to that efficiently and add more business lines execute dude on sort of policy goals execute on experiences and China and all the other kind of things they wanna add onto the core business. That just means that this is getting more complicated. And there's just going to continue to be I think Sort of a question of of the right leadership going forward right so so. You mentioned a couple of initiatives and I do want to circle back to that at the end of of this chat because firstly you did mention policy stuff so that's been like you know Ongoing Stumbling Block AIRBNB. It seems to flare up every every couple of months when when certain politicians and cities yeah work to regulate them ban and whatever it is. What's what's the latest on the AIRBNB Policy Front? Yeah you're right. This is something they've they've been you know. Number one or number two risk for AIRBNB for years is nothing new I think what investors and other folks are getting antsy about as airbnb gets closer to going the public is where is it. How's IT faring? In New York. That's one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world can make their if you can make get in New York Concrete really made it. That's how they say it you make it here. You've done it boy. Yeah and I think one worrying sign was the fact that it lost the AIRBNB spent big to try to win sort of ballot referendum in Jersey City earlier this month and lost in a pretty significant landslide slide and and that loss essentially restricts their business in a key market you know adjacent to New York and New York itself is long been in sort word of this regulatory gray area in Airbnb hasn't been able to win over hotel unions and other sort of sort of opponents in New York so you know it's all it's going to be an issue for AIRBNB. They have wins. They have losses. I think right now what I think people are going to want to understand is are they winning more than they're losing or are they losing more than they're winning and that was a blend of Johnson Sort of place you oversaw. She oversaw the policy team. I haven't I've been able to independently. Say that. You know if she sort of any kind of policy related losses. Wait her way in her. Her but I think the question we we should raise the question and we should be watching this going forward and I imagine it'll be interesting to see the effect that the presidential title campaign has next year and the kind of rhetoric coming out of I would imagine mostly the democratic side depending on who the nominee is about the relationship between government and tech. And if we're seeing being what we've seen in the past couple of months which is a lot of people kind of on the left taking a very adversarial approach tech companies. You know taking pride. In the fact that Amazon John pulled out of going to New York and You know the fact that Amazon loss to kind of embarrassing battle in in Seattle for a town council position or city council position You know that could affect airbnb to write. You know like if we're seeing a climate that's very pro regulation and an anti tack than Airbnb is kind of line to the street that they've got this regulation poses a figure it out just seems kind of weak it could you know they benefit from the fact that their relationship with the labor force if you will is not as contested as like an uber you know they the people that they rely on to has sort of put their homes on AIRBNB are like a little bit more middle

Belinda Alleges Frank’s `Fanciful Schemes’ Eroded Stronach Family Empire
"As the story goes frank stronach arrived in Canada from his native Austria in Nineteen fifty four with two hundred hundred dollars in his pocket and the hope of opening a tool and die shop that shop eventually became the auto parts company MAGNA international which made Strana on a billionaire frank then got involved with thoroughbred racing owning both racehorses and eventually race tracks today the Strana group the spinoff off company for many of the Families Racetrack Operations Owns Gulfstream Park in Florida both tracks in Maryland Loral and Pimlico home of the preakness and of course source the great race place Santa Anita among others over the years. Some of Frank stronach's race track plans heavy listed quizzical looks with one example being the thirty million dollar price tag for the Pegasus statue outside of Gulfstream his daughter Belinda though has done more than look quizzically. Belinda is now the chairman and President of the stronach group and she is suing her father for over five hundred million dollars. She claims claimed that francs pet projects as she calls them have lost the company huge sums of money frank has counter-sued saying that Belinda and a former business partner appropriated family funds for their personal benefit good grief. What will this family feud mean for the Strana Group Group and by extension for the entire thoroughbred industry here in the United States since T S G controls so many influential tracks to people who were quite familiar with the business dealings of the strategic group are writers Joe Connor and Barbara Sector of the financial post a Canadian based publication and we welcome Miss Scheckter and Mr O'connor here to win the gate. Let's start with Mr O'connor. Each side accuses the other of financial malfeasance. What facts do we know through all of this bluster. Well what we do know is what the suit alleges and what I'm frank is accusing blend end of is misappropriating funds and essentially locking him out of the company that his money built and what Glenda is same is. That's not the case and in her countersuit. She's saying well you know. The Truth is here is my dad and I'm quoting is is she's called them idiosyncratic idiosyncratic and often unprofitable side ventures meaning that she believes that her father has a frittered away money on then any projects such as an organic beef farm in California and on a fancy bike electric bike and on other things and that has put the company in jeopardy and that in order to see rescue the company's fortunes. She has to keep her father at arm's length from it. It's a giant. He said see she said as long as that's floating out there and working its way through the court system. It's going to mean some uncertainty. I think the the thing that is sure is that there's going to be continued uncertainty until this gets resolved so so. Michelle after financial controversy has followed the strongbox for quite a while even going back to two thousand ten when they were paid basically to leave magna and it seemed like a little unusual to say the least I mean what do things like this say about the nature of their business dealings things in their character especially as relates to their employees. Well I mean it was very unusual and it was quite controversial in Canada just because because of the the quantum the amount of money that they paid to collapse this dual share structure which gave the Straw nics way more votes per share than other shareholders. I mean it was a common structure in Canada and it's even sort of picking up steam right now in the US and a little bit back in Canada because it allows sort of families as an entrepreneurs to retain control but in the case of Magna and at the time it was an unpopular structure and companies were being pressured to drop it it and stronach agreed to collapse it and leave the company but he demanded what summit called a king's ransom to do so and he was not willing to bend on that it ended up going for Securities Commission and also through the courts with some of the large institutional shareholders like pensions demanding that you know that he takes less money that it was far too much money but he was unyielding and he walked away with exactly what he negotiated with the company who cares what at the institutional shareholders who've been there for varying amounts of time want so it was the same when he was running the company he did things his way he took you know large paychecks and defended them telling people that maybe he even deserved more than he was taking so certainly as strong willed and you know willing to keep pushing his way and getting it so that certainly is the type of personality. We're talking about here. It's a it's not a shrinking violet on either of their counts. What about the potential cultural difference at work here since you have the self made father and daughter who was born into wealth. I think that's a huge the dividing line you see frank who was a child in wartime. Austria who comes to Canada panelists our near to it and has the Moxie to build a company that goes through the roof in terms of its value he built this thing with his hands and I met with them for lunch going going back into the spring and what he said at the time and he wasn't GonNa go deep into the weeds of the actual legal case he wasn't gonNA roll mud necessarily Elliot his daughter but what he did say quite clearly and what was evident in our conversation was that he truly believed that he'd built this. This was whose baby as it were and that his children his daughter and son and their children should be entitled to some of that well but in the form of of a and inheritance in the form of what I think the figure he quoted to me was like I will give my children one hundred million dollars each and they can go on build their own legacy. I can see whereas frank sees. The He sees the race tracks. TST owns he sees the empire as I've been been built by his his money and he believes that he should have the keys to the empire and be able to drive you in whatever direction he
