I used to create those comics but in history classes. That was show so boring for me. I started drawing of i used to seeing the third page and in each of every week laws.

"For you sir. Okay so the woman. I love is in town. She's currently sitting in the other room. We haven't seen each other for a while. But she's going to be here for a while and so i thought i would try to find a show that we can watch together to like bond. You know what i'm saying and now look everybody's been talking about. ted lassos. so let's just say ted laso off the list. Please do not inundate my twitter telling me how good to alaska was. I know all right. And it's a little intimidating right now. Also because everybody speaks ted lasso. And i don't in that's getting a little annoying so so you don't know any ted lassoed all you've not seen any. I've not seen episode one no case of this season of any season. And that's just. Because i kind of got behind i kind of got a wacky travel schedule. I don't have apple tv. I want to be able to sit down. And banging are all at once so that i can become conversant in the in the whole thing in one sitting. So let's just take off. Because i just want you to know that. I got an alert on my phone. This is earlier ted. Lassos new episodes. Come out on. Fridays and my girlfriend. Rachel sent me a text earlier. That said hey. We gotta catch up with ted last night because tonight is episode four. So i'm i'm caught up on ted lasso and tonight i'll be officially like one hundred percent caught up on episode four of us. Okay this is trying to avoid so yes. Ted lasso follower. What do people watch that last call last hours. I don't know i'm not making fun of it. I'm just kind of overwhelmed by ted lonzo. Anybody eight seven seven seven seven. Espn hit me up. And i'm thinking. Listen y'all i don't want your crazy. Am i serial killer. Or am i going to get killed stuff. I don't want your nonsense. I want stuff. That's relatively lighthearted but fund your maybe ted lasso. Oh no but like pro. Hope excuse me preferably has some black folks in it. That would be nice. You know what i'm saying and we can watch as a family that's gonna make me laugh but also you know is pretty smart. That's that's what. I'm looking for suggestions. All right all right. I'm gonna give you a suggestion. It's not particularly funny. Okay but i don't need funny so that works okay. But i'm telling you clinton i'm way late to this party. I'm later to this party. Just like you're late to the ted laso party But i and. Here's why. I even know about this show because i was watching ted laso on apple tv and then said okay. What else can we watch. This was a couple of nights ago. You know i've been locked down now. I'm in quarantine until like monday or tuesday of next week. So thank you. And so my girlfriend and i were together. And we're we're going through this together and so we started watching again. I got it everybody. I'm late to the party. i get it. We started watching the morning show. Have you heard of them. I've heard of that show and that's media related. I could get into that. There's only one problem you've already told us. She don't have an apple. Tv so schmuck. Then that's fine that's awful. Tv that's fine. But that's a good suggestion is jennifer aniston is my hall pass. So i love jennifer aniston. Okay so that's one reese witherspoon is in it. She's really good It's a it's an amazing show. I had no idea about it. Steve curls in it now you ask the question you would prefer to have some black people in it. I have another caller. I will take any a friend of mine. I was telling a friend of mine about this. He happens to be a black gentleman and he said to me. Are there any black people in the show is that i promise you. There is a full cast of black people in this show. One of the ladies as a producer one of the ladies. There's an agent one. That's a good start. Let me ask a follow up question ahead as somebody that worked in the news industry in the capital united states of america it was frequently in new york. This is not a turn off. I'm just asking you. Is there potential that this is going to be relatively triggering on a professional level that intent. Which is. I'm just wondering. Put it this way. The answer is yes. I have no fingernails right now. Because we've been binge watching this show and it's making me crazy. This show how i it's like i'm such a nervous wreck watching the show and my girlfriend rachel. She's she's a cpa and she says to me what's going on with you like i hate when you bite your fingernails and i'm like this show is bringing back so many memories of himes in my own career working in the news slash sports industry where there's so much drama and backbiting and so on and so forth but okay. I'm telling you right now. This show is so good. And i'm only four episodes in so my suggestion for clinton yates and the love. My suggestion is the morning show okay. I'll write that down just for all of you. Who are hitting me up on twitter. I appreciate the kindness and this again not a knock on anything but if you're in like the marvel universe or anything like that that's too much pre wreck you know what i'm saying like that's too much required reading for me to understand it..

"And i can't get into how successful sadly some of our opponents have been getting inside there but you know about this stuff because you know you remember the sf eighty six Intrusion and all of that stuff so we've got a lot of work to do To demonstrate into use best practices inside the federal government. And then the other thing. I would highlight. Is that you know. I was a veteran of the size of act legislation. I think it was twenty fifteen where we fought this huge fight to get to start the process of getting i keep using the word crowdsourcing of getting the three letter agencies working with the private sector. We've got a long way to go to make sure that there's probably twenty four seven interaction and sharing of information Again with care. We don't we don't want the nsa or the fbi. Having spreadsheets of americans personally identifiable information. But i just don't see a world where we don't have all of the experts working in real time because the threats are constant. The threats are real time. And so i do think both internally in our own house but also externally setting up a regime where we are where we are working together on a twenty four seven basis is where we need to go. Just give me your thoughts on the infrastructure deal. It's percolating its way through. Congress is it. What's in their vis-a-vis cybersecurity. And is it enough ya grain creston great last question. Actually so you know. I think of this deal as as the bill is good for two reasons number one. It's really well targeted. And that means that lots of people think there's there's stuff in there that there that there should be some who think that it's too too big etcetera but look at. It's i think it is a twenty-first-century first century bill. What i mean by that is heavy on transit It's it's a relatively speaking lighter on bridges and highways but it's very heavy on mass transit. Which is the future of travel in certainly denser abdennour densely populated areas. Massive is very heavy on broadband. And of course this points in the direction of what we're talking about right now Making sure that you know like the tennessee valley authority you know. Cree provided electricity for the american south back in the nineteen thirties That every american is going to have access to prod. And and then as i mentioned before it has a good resources for the federal government's effort to secure those The networks behind all of that. So you're on the the other thing. I mentioned to got me excited about it. In addition to the twenty th century aspect of the fact that it's going to be bipartisan. i'm i guess i'm a little old school and i saw what happened on january six. I think americans really need to see. The two parties can come together to pass something big in meaningful. That's going to be. I think a a a a a gift to our to our otherwise somewhat tattered democracy. I agree with you on that representative. Himes thank you so much for coming on. It's being to us on the security ledger podcast. It's been a pleasure. Thanks very much. Look forward to coming back at some point. We've been speaking with jim himes.

"Flex your chest muscles and that's a little bit of a cartoon i understand. It is broad-based. It is it is chest thumping this with the flexing muscles. That's actually not a cartoon. Algae deliberately the chinese of course much more targeted than what they do. There's nothing sort of ego driven by chinese intrusions. They are very very targeted in primarily around something that we don't do is country which is industrial espionage. Our secrets and our commercial secrets and they are exquisitely good at that unfortunately And we have not done nearly enough to defend. We also haven't done if you think about it that we've talked a lot about deterrence today. You know that's a little different right. Because they're not breaking things were actually stealing plans for xyz. So no i do think of. The threats is very very different And an do require a different response. Look if nothing else you know. I mean we're in a period of time where There is in congress of hysteria is too strong a word but but just twenty four seven concern about china and china is a very very nuanced Threat right because on the hand. They're doing some awful things that we disapprove of in the cyber realm and in ten other realms including the way they treat their own people. But they're there's not a thing sitting in the room you're sitting in that doesn't have china in its in its supply chain trillions of dollars of us sovereign debt. That's not true of russia. So yes the toolbox. And the and the chessboard very Let's talk about some of the good news to come out First of all You know we have. We have cisa and you've talked about maybe a a greater role for that agency. last week. They came out with a new platform for federal agencies to use do vulnerability disclosure programs. And i'm actually working on a story about Some of the fruit that has already a born of federal agencies putting up a vulnerability disclosure programs inviting independent security researchers. Come in and kinda poke around and see if they can find security holes and stuff like that so sister's doing a great job What would you like to see happen with that particular agency. Your great great point and i'm delighted to see that All of this churning in the senate with infrastructure bills and And and reconciliation bills Everybody is talking about More resources for Not just but but all of the Government some cybersecurity efforts So what would. I like to see number one by. We've got a lot of work to do to get our own house in order We've taken some steps inside the federal government but even in the most sensitive networks We constantly see intrusions in so we've got a lot of work to do before we start telling other people what they need to do in securing our most sensitive national security secrets..

"The last time that happened caused chaos xyz. He is going to keep doing it now. The counter-argument you got me started here. Counterargument has always been over. We're so much more vulnerable. And there'll be a tit for tat and they're gonna take down our networks. Well or what are they gonna do. Shut down gasoline pipeline. So i really do think it is way pastime that we use our our offensive cyber capabilities to make leaders around the world. Think two and three times before they do what they're doing otherwise every single day so you bring up the the The the the problem with our own vulnerability and obviously you know. Russia has a A one point seven trillion dollar economy. You know less than half the size of california's We have a twenty trillion dollar economy. So we're we're kind of the big glass glasshouse in the world We are a huge economy. We are as you said heavily. Reliant on communications networks and the internet to run our economy and there are obviously endless opportunities for them to hurt us and maybe our our opportunities to hurt them are not quite as not quite as big. So what's to be done yet. And that's obviously the key question of two which i guess i'd say two things number one. It's not self evident to me that on the chessboard wherein a much worse position than they are right so let's talk about economic and political power in the united states. it is immensely fragmented. You know there are all kinds of senators kinds of members of congress. Governors mayors all who matter in russia. There are probably a handful of people that matter politically Wealth in the private sector. You know we have a massively robust private sector where wealth and economic powers highly fragmented and distributed. So it's not clear to me. They you know they have a highly concentrated amid the analogy. I would draws that when you get into a shooting war. You don't wanna put all of your tanks in a highly concentrated formation right in and so it's not immediately clear to me That the chessboard is as grim. As perhaps you describe it strategically speaking. I do think that there are individuals businesses and financing in russia. That are very readily identifiable. That we could mess around with in a way that would be very painful and very scary for putin in his and his cronies the other thing i would say is of course you do this in a way where you try not to escalate because yes. A lot of damage could be imposed on people We got a little taste of that with the colonial pipeline. And so i think what you do is you say you know. There's a new sheriff in town You saw what our capabilities are. We don't want this to escalate. But you're going to stop doing this. You're gonna stop doing this. And so i am by the way you observe all of the standards and norms that you observed for offensive activity proportionality minimization of of collateral damage. Etcetera so Again i think that's a scary world but i don't think it's as scary as wondering Next monday what headline i'm going to read about what the what the f. Espn the vr. Did that week. Can i no one news item for. Mid-july was a distributed denial of service attack on the russian ministry of defence his website. Do you know whether that was something that the us military or government was behind A realm here. Where i can't i can't talk about what i know. That very little is a sensitive as our offensive cyber operations. So i can't go there..

"I mean one of the big kind of takeaways from that commission. Report was this notion of deterrents in pursuing a policy of deterrence which is of course. You know if you're a student of the cold war was sort of the operating Mo of the you know the west. What does that mean in the context of cyber security and cyber attacks. And what could the us and its allies due to deter actors like you know. Russia china iran north korea from what they've been doing in recent years which is pretty aggressive Offensive cyber operations in in the us and in north america in europe. I'm i'm really glad you asked because this has been a a a bugaboo of mine for for twelve years. Now i've i've had this argument with three different presidential administrations. And i've made the point repeatedly that one of the reasons we keep seeing these russian and chinese russian in particular attacks on our on our cyber infrastructure whether it's the dnc hacker the ongoing activities of the russians and the chinese. Because we don't impose a cost for them having done so. I mean i remember being very disappointed when when president president obama You know ejected whatever. The number was sixty plus so-called diplomats russian diplomats from the country and shutdown. I guess kind of facility in maryland. That was a slap on the wrist of ladimir putin compared to chaos he was able to cause by hacking into the dnc's Computer system and we have never really Imposed a cost would create a deterrent. And i think particularly with people like putin and i draw distinction between the russians and the chinese. The chinese are doing a lot of thefts right. They're going into our defense contractors stealing intellectual property that's a little different than creating political chaos. The way russians are often trying to do You know until putin understands But will be a significant cost to be paid. He's going to keep doing it. He's the classic playground bully. Who doesn't understand anything other than the language of force. So what does that mean. that means. There's a lot of routes you can take care. We should have destroyed network equipment on the part of the gru or the vr the russian intelligence agencies. We should have messed with the financing. We should have you know could have picked a couple of oligarchs an emptied their swiss bank accounts. Now i'm saying this a lot more quickly than i should say it because obviously all sorts of equities that you you take into account and you you observe things like proportionality but until vitamer putin. When he's asked if the svr can conduct this operation has to think oh my god..

"Which by the way i think. That's i think that's a huge underexplored realm right. None of us are safe. Not the north koreans iranians not the russians. Not the is. None of us are safe from rhode criminal operators. I just think there's so much more we can do before. We have a very difficult argument about policies surrounding the payment of riots. yup To that point one of the things that federal government has done recently is Congress rather as the cyberspace alarium commission which was really an effort to talk about high level government policy vis-a-vis cybersecurity and come up with recommendations. Can you talk a little bit about that commission and some of the recommendations that came out of it. Yeah that was it was really a terrific effort it was. It was bipartisan It had knowledgeable and very practical Members of congress is outside experts pining And they They they came up with it. Actually unusually for government a report makes for really good reading as well and you know it it. It it makes a lot of the suggestions that That have been talked about for a long time but it just did it. Obviously the very high level. With policymakers involved you know suggestions about About better cooperation between the government and the private sectors. We've been talking about Suggestions about making sure that that we're doing everything we can to coordinate development of norms internationally. It's not a sexy field but you know the un is beavering away through the government group of experts to try to develop a a norms and more clarity around things like Who exactly is a rogue. How do we jointly go after them. i use a lot of cold war metaphors and sometimes i get some blowback for that but You know one of the reasons. We were sweet. We stayed safe in the cold war. Horribly dangerous is that period was was because we developed very clear doctrines around what was a active war wasn't what our procedures were missile defense and we shared those doctrines with our with our end. Quote enemies the soviets right and they did the same with us and as a consequence because we knew each other doctrines and we knew how we worked really hard to make sure we knew how we thought about the threat. The level of risk was much reduced. Have that today in the cyber realm. Nobody really knows what's a active war versus crime and we've had a lot of work to do to to try to get to that point where we've got to common agreement internationally..

"I think more and more were developing a more competent way of thinking about this. What i like to think of as sort of a Faa in aviation regulation way of thinking about this stuff which is regulators working in partnership with the private sector to make sure that we're that we're safe with things like self reporting and mandatory reporting in that kind of thing. So yeah and i do. I think there needs to be a little bit of a phase shift in our thinking because as you point out there has always been kind of a bright line between where government gets involved in partnership with or otherwise with the private sector. But let's face it. I mean you know. Forty years ago. When i was a kid. Networks didn't exist and so my ability to buy quarter milk my ability to withdraw money from a bank my ability to get my news on the television. None of that was vulnerable to something. That didn't a threat that didn't yet exist. And now you know we really learned this during covert if we didn't know before you know our level of networking is is is almost existential in its in its existence and of course that's only going to become more to over time so i think without in any way shape or form Losing respect for the values that we have to respect you know the privacy of individuals. Nobody wants the fbi keeping their social security number their whereabouts on a spreadsheet somewhere so without anywhere abandoning concepts of privacy I do think we're going to need to get much more comfortable over time. with the government sitting side by side with the private sector on on on cybersecurity issues. Yeah coming back to ransomware. You mentioned the whole ransom payment thing and i listened to some of the colonial pipeline hearings Congress people often seem fixated on the payment of ransom. Power was paid the decisions involving it being paid the consequences of being paid. What's your take on ransomware payments on editorialize here. I think it's a. I think it's kind of a dead end issue. I don't think it's the most relevant issue around ransomware as but it does seem to be a fixation. Of policymakers what. Why do you think that is and do you think do you ought. Gb think it's actually a really important issue. I i'm with you on this. I think it's an overblown issue and people who haven't spent a lot of time in the space and you haven't thought about all of the you know the the military is term left of boom. Which is everything that leads up to a bad situation in. Oh folks folks that haven't thought about all of the vulnerabilities in the actions that happen know before a ransom is paid sometimes so to seize on that because it's one of the more understandable elements of this but the truth is that we don't have a lot of clarity about the payment a ransom in the physical world right. We don't have to say to people if your cousin is kidnapped in colombia just to pick something You can't pay ransom. We don't we don't say that now there are laws. You can't pay money to terrorists. Probably can't pay money to certain known in named a criminal groups but you know it's very hard for the government to do what i think. Some people think it should do which is to simply prohibit the payment. Ranson this this is you know if you have a small business in the business ransom. All of their data has turned up with government is saying if they're saying you can't pay ransom is it's you're gone And i think people need to sort of grapple with that. So i i i agree with you. I think there's there's so much more we can do around About being smart in our defenses about being united internationally to go after rogue groups that are that are That are undertaking these criminal activities..

That brought this home. I mean it's not like ransomware attacks our new things. We saw the city of baltimore attacked number of years ago and of course we sort of people individuals and others have experienced this but there was something that got that made it very real Win the colonial pipeline shut down for that period of time. And so there's an awful lot more that we can all do. And you asked about the government particular. Lemme lemme sidetrack you for one second and say that When you talk to the experts on this issue whether those experts are inside the government or groups like gartner they will tell you that They almost never zero day attack right. That's tiny percentage of of malware is unknown And so probably the biggest thing we can do as a society. I'm sure government can cal- help on this is just to be a lot smarter And a lot more hygienic.

I got briefed on cyber risk to the government and the economy more than twenty years ago when members of the loft and early hacker collective casually informed senators in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight that they could shut down the internet in thirty minutes if they wanted to tweet. One thousand nine hundred ninety eight and today there have been countless hearings on cyber risks countless government reports documenting. The federal government's ineptitude on matters of information security and defense. That's not to say that.

I've been doing this for for for coming on thirteen years. And i would say that there's been a dramatic change in people's level of education sense of urgency Around cyber security. I sometimes joke that you know. Even a decade ago you'd have people with three stars on their shoulders come in front of the homeland security committee or other committees. And you'd ask them about cybersecurity in you'd get blank stares and obviously there's been an awful lot of water under the bridge so to speak since then the federal government as it is wont to do argue. We hasn't moved quite as rapidly as it should but it has moved quite rapidly to stand up organizations that are about defending our cyber infrastructure. developing Offensive capabilities that theoretically could be used sometimes are used for for for retribution for other operations and most importantly there's been a really a high level of education given to members of congress.

And you know, our special guest is you've been listening. So you've been knowing what we're talking about. It's Eric Metaxas himself because he's got a brand new book, and it's out today. It's cold fish out of water. Ate a minute on the guests that my own show ostrich. Oh, come on. I don't believe that l But nobody would believe that. But what choice do we have way have no other guests. I'll play the role of yesterday. I'm very happy to do that. And speaking as the guest I hear that my clindell is the main sponsor of your program. Is that true? That is probably true. Yes. Is there a discount code People should use to support my clindell and the Eric Metaxas show just asking for our friend. I'm going to say Eric with a C E r I c your heroics that simple, Eric. Okay. Are people allowed to use their code? If they don't listen to the program? Yeah, especially if they don't listen, it's gonna help him, okay? All right. That's not for that. Thanks. Okay. Here we go. Okay. So today, of course, is the big launch of fish out of water. It's a memoir. It's all about Eric's early life up until about the age of 25 when a golden fish changed everything. It's an exciting tale. And in fact, I have a copy here. The interesting thing I'm gonna ask Eric about this right now. I have read the uncorrected page proof Now they were supposed to send me the actual book. But because of the snow, and this is no kidding. I have not been able to get the actual book in my hot little hands. But and I'm corrected. Pray page proof for those of you out there don't know much about publishing. It's kind of like the dress rehearsal for the actual book. So they wanted if you want to change things, or add things or something. This is your last chance. So I want to ask Eric because I've been an extra on Saturday night Live and on the just rehearsal. They're sketches that they cut in time for the regular show because they've got too many sketches, and they'll say that while this one's not so fight, so they get rid of it. I want to ask Eric, where there any stories that you either had changed dramatically or cut from the uncorrected page proof to the final final final book. That's my first question, right? No, no, it's it's virtually Same. The only difference is that the actual book is obviously much nicer because it's printed nicely, and it's so hard cover and it's got color photographs of you know my early days. Aziz, the young man and as a child pictures of my parents, So that's what you that's what you look like in color. Oh, that's why look and look at Look, look at the end papers that's like it's a family tree of my Greek, Emily. This is so people contract with the characters inside the book and the last page. The last and papers are my German family. So it's kind of Ah, it just say you can kind of track because there's all these characters and stuff in it. But anyway, you know what Here's Here's. The other end of that first question was, Was there anything he left out? But I realized this when I finish reading the book, and this shows you how good the book is, when you finish it and wish there were more now with that in mind. I want to ask the author Eric Metaxas, this question. When you finish writing it, you handed it in. They said. That's it. We're gonna publish what you wrote right here. Did you later say we Later months later off, there's a great story. I forgot I left out. This is key to my existence. Oh, I gotta put this in fish part two part dear, if not Not exactly. But yes, Yes, I am. I'm going to write a sequel to this, which is called pastures new a life in miracles because after what happens to me at the end of this book began to experience What it is to walk with God, and I've experienced innumerable bonified miracles and unless you read the stories, you know, I can't say I grew a group, third arm or something like that, But I When you read these stories, you know they're kind of amazing, So I'm looking forward to telling a lot of them. But there, there's no doubt I don't want the book to be too long, because it's already a little long, but there's a lot of stuff that I had to take out. And it is frustrating because I wanted it to be. You know, I want everything to be in there. But let's be honest. Not everybody's interested in the minutia of my life. So I only put the stuff in that I thought was either funny or were important. And I mean, look. Every when I flipped through it like I just cracked up because there's so much of this stuff. These are, like, sort of painful memories, but they're funny at the same time, Like the time my father gave me a haircut. I mean, you know the neck anyway, Let's not we won't go into the O R reading.

You have to show strength and you have to be strong. Police eventually cleared the protesters away from Capitol Hill and the joint session of Congress returned to continue the business of debating the confirmation of Joe Biden's win. Republicans and Democrats spoke with anger about what had happened. This is Democrat leader Chuck Shima. Make no mistake my friends. Today's events did not happen spontaneously. President to promoted conspiracy theories that motivated these thugs. The president who exhorted them to come to our nation's capital. Egged him on. He hardly ever discourages violence. And more often encourages it. This president, there's a great deal of the blame. This mob was in good part. President Trump's doing Incited by his words. His lies. This violence in good part. His responsibility. His everlasting shame. Today's events. Certainly certainly. Would not have happened. Without him. Well for more. I've been speaking to the Democratic Party Congressman Jim Himes, who's inside the Capitol building. When it was stormed. I began by asking him how safe he felt. There was a 30 minute period where I did not feel anything resembling safe when it was clear that protesters had gotten into the capital and that they had some sort of, you know, battering device and we're bringing trying to get into the actual chamber, where there were still dozens of members of Congress and when the Capitol Police had drawn their weapons and were pointing them at the door. No. In that moment, I did not feel particularly safe. The bait all sorts of language to describe what happened from scuffles to riots to insurrection. Where do you place it on that scale? Well, look, we had a fatality weapons were brandished. We've lost complete control over the article One authority as we say in the United States. Of the United States of America. There is no word and this comes from somebody who was taken out of the chamber by armed men brandishing weapons. There is no word but insurrection and an insurrection. Of course that was fermented. By the president of the United States. So it is. It is truly a shocking, shocking moment in our history. When you say fomented by President Trump. What's the evidence of that? What do you point to to say that he was the one behind this? Well, it's simply take a look at his Twitter feed which Twitter has done us the service of disabling for 12 hours, I think, realizing that that that he might doom or the president through his Twitter feed it through his speech. You need only watch his speech today. Listen to his lawyer who encouraged settling this by combat his word, you know? Listen to his son, who told the crowd that That they should go to the capital and make sure that Republicans acted like heroes not like zeros. The president and his people nearly to a person encourage this in very explicit terms. And so again, this president is not going to be tried for this particular crime, but a prosecutor would have a very, very easy time with this particular case. The country obviously has a lot of soul searching to do we elected with a minority of voters in 2016 what most people knew and what most people in their voting behavior knew. Was that a terribly terribly ill equipped, damaged man to be our president? We still have some 14 or 15 days of this man who has lost the ability to tweet because of Twitter and lost his ability to post on Facebook but has not lost his ability, for example, to launch a nuclear attack or start a war. It's a very bizarre moment, so yes, the country has a great deal of reflection to do about the extremism that was stoked. About the misinformation that poisoned the minds of tens of millions of Americans. Yeah, this is a moment and look when I was being taken out of the chamber again by a guard with his art with his weapon drawn, You know, it occurred to me that we may have come close today to losing our our democracy. 11 can never know if that's true, but we do have a great deal of self reflection to do. Is all of this reinforced just what a task The next administration will have. Bring the country back together again. It. Does it does. The people who the hundreds of people who broke into the capital to today did not do that to find compromise toe have a civil debate to engage in dialogue with their fellow Americans? They did that to hurt people to express rage and hatred and anger. And so if you sit on my side of the aisle and you're asked to think about re stitching our civic fabric that's a massive leap of faith. Now it's one we will undertake. I will undertake But a zoo. We contemplate the destruction that Donald Trump has wrought on our body politick. It is going to take an almost saintly patients on endeavor. Who worked in it this country back together again. That's the Democratic congressman Jim Himes. It's making some headlines from the U. S print Media. This'll morning Mob incited by Trump Storms Capitals is The New York Times The Washington Post headline says World stand by subversion of democracy. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Times asks in an editorial at what point Does this get pulled on attempted coup? Let's get the view of Brian class. Now he is an American political scientist on columnist of The Washington Post. He's also author off the Death Spots Apprentice Donald Trump's attack on Democracy, and he's currently teaching at University College. London. Welcome to the program. So what we have here is the political destructor. Coming, some saying the instigator and leader off the mob. Was this a natural end to how this story began. Do you think Yeah, I mean, it was completely natural, and it was, unfortunately extremely predictable. This is theological endpoint of an authoritarian movement in U. S politics. That has been obvious to anyone paying attention. And in May I wrote a column for the Washington Post, saying that Trump would reject real election results. Would falsely claim that the election was rigged and they would incite violence. And anyone who was paying attention to his rhetoric over the last several months could have seen this coming could have stopped, it could have intervened and instead, the Republican Party encouraged him lies about the election encouraged his rhetoric, which stoked violence. And encouraged a moment that ultimately is one of the worst in US history, with insurrectionists storming into the Senate and House chamber and taking control of the U. S Capitol. Well, you know, you took the words out of my mouth. The mob could be seen that the physical assault, But the debate that was going on in Congress many is saying is the Democratic assault the challenge to the verification. Off the free and fair election of those inside the chamber, in your opinion as much to blame for the actions outside the chamber. The violence happened because of reckless, irresponsible elected officials, including the president, who decided to spread baseless lies about an election and attempt to subvert the will of the electorate in order to retain power for a man who lost an election.

Caring for Clivias: All you need to know!
"Going to talk today. A about the plant that I say probably most of America calls and I say Clive via I knew you were GonNa be a live. I say clavier because I remember very vividly one time I was talking talking with Dan. Himes who is a plant Geek from the Pacific northwest and he told a story about One time talking with somebody from Great Britain and he mentioned that he's he said Clive era and the person he was talking to said. Oh I'm so glad you said Clive Eah. I my new Robert Clive Myself. Yes I know. I know. It's named after a Mr Clive. Actually Lady Clive. It was named after the granddaughter daughter of the Duke of Northumberland Robert Clive and a granddaughter was lady Charlotte Florentina Clive. Loop de do anyway like. Why do you say clavier or Clive era? This is a fabulous plant. It is and it's one of the plants that I get questions about all the time because so many people have heard about how beautiful it is have seen its flowers which are outstandingly gorgeous but have trouble getting it to bloom. The way they want it to. And it's very very easy problem to solve given the right circumstances and if you don't have the right circumstances while you're just it's never going to solve the problem. It has very specific wants and needs period. Well so let's go into those wants needs central mentioned it. What ah how can someone get a Clai via plant to boom? Well someone can get a clavier plant to bloom my first of all moving it outside for the summer give it a summer vacation. Move it indoors when it gets to be in the high forties low fifties maybe down even to forty five live. Bring it back doors and put it in a dark cold room that you don't use very often because dark dark. It doesn't have to be dark dark but it just has to be one on that you don't turn the lights on in a lot. So when we were in Pennsylvania we'd put it in our guest room which in the winter I kept closed off and hated to fifty and it would get the ambient light from the windows does but it wasn't getting all that supplemental light from them being turned off and on all the time so the combination of the shorter daylight hours and the cool temperatures are are what not only instigates bloom but also makes that bloom stock rise above the foliage of the plant. Because sometimes you'll get the clavier Avia to bloom at the right time but people complain that the flowers are compressed between the leaves and if they don't have that cold temperature that's what happens. I I got bloom year after year. Perfectly in Pennsylvania here. I can't give it that kind of growing conditions so even though I still love my plant the bloom if it comes at all squished between the leaves and there is simply nothing I can do about that in my current home. Yeah it you want that around fifty a degree temperature. That's number one and You want that to be for about a six to eight week period. Just you know. It's not like a two days where it's going to no it's gotta be extended and the plant will you'll see it. I mean you'll know when it starting to bloom you'll see the bloom spike now during that time during that six to eight weeks around fifty fifty five ish you know temperature and not any extra light. Do you water it to feed it what you do. I don't feed my plants often at all and I probably should so no. I don't feed it but yes I do water it not very much. The clavier has very succulent roots. I would give it some water. Probably every three two weeks when it's in that courtroom Okay you mentioned putting it outside for summer camp full sun parts on shade dappled son. I'd go for Dappled Sun. That's what I used to do a here in New Mexico you would have to do it in shade because being at seven thousand feet. The Sun is just so much stronger but as with any any house plant that you're bringing out for some vacation. put it in shade. I get used to the outdoor light which is so much stronger than our indoor light and get used to it and then move it into dappled sunlight. I'm like one of the comments that I hear about Clavier. Plants Ellen is that they're expensive and there is a reason for this and the reason is this is a plant that For reasons unknown to me can't be propagated through tissue culture interest. Yeah isn't that interesting. And so either you have to take a a piece off of an existing plan which is fairly easy to do to divide but then that piece that you've taken off it has to grow and become a little bit root bound and usually it takes two to three sometimes even more years in order to to bring that piece into bloom. So that means from the growers point of view. They've got to hang onto this plant for two three years before they can sell Ella. You have to be patient. It is so worth it. There's nothing like the brilliant orange blooms of clavier on February worry afternoon. You look at the snow and if you stick your nose right down in those flowers there's also a really gentle fragrance. It's it's a wonderful plant. And yes you're right they are a little bit pricey and you do have to be patient because they don't bloom until they've got a little age on them but man. Is it worth

they like the quintessential like this is the type of person we're talking about like the quintessential mary tyler moore she like out of the box she's out of the box this is not the mary the MTA AMU thought you know she's a she's a schemer and con artist and a weirdly sexual with everybody and it's very uncomfortable to watch our hero mary tyler moore be the key such a villain expressed jean stapleton is in it who if you if you aren't familiar is a great actress she was is it all in the family i stephen yes that's how she's very well know but she is a an amazing actress when you when you see her in another part you're like oh my god she's so good very different and then and gabriel olds plays kenny times and i think he is from a soap opera but he is great so anyway and that made for TV movie was based on the book the mother the sun and the socialite socialite by adrian hill so there's lots of things if the story interests you get down and dirty details in lots of ways so let me let me get into it we will start with a woman irene silverman so irene she's a retired ballerina she was in the new york city ballet accompany member but she was also an elite socialite and she lived with her husband multimillionaire mortgage broker sam silverman in an extravagant seven million dollar townhouse on east sixty fifth street in manhattan seven million seven million in the seventies oh my god yeah and so so she is an extrovert she throws parties all the time she's she's a true social fun yeah right having money she's always entertaining guests has tons of friends canopies everywhere pays can pay an canopy it's even that can the pay can i pay existence so when her husband sam passes away in one thousand nine hundred eighty irene decides that she's going to take their humongous townhouse and and turn it into like an apartment building into basically luxury apartments so on average the rents of these individual apartments go for about six thousand dollars hours a month which in today's money would be seventeen thousand five hundred dollars or an apartment for an apartment in on east sixty sixty fifth street manhattan all right write nana's so her tenants are very impressive and include such luminaries luminaries as the marquis and marchioness of northampton you know i'm reading a phonetic spelling of both of those martian of north hampton danton marcia marcia s north hampton not a martian take me to your leader day-lewis and chaka khan i would together together we don't start gossip but yes they were deeply in love with those with that cast list i'd i pay up to eighteen thousand dollars a month to live there he managed to get a camera installed so i can watch your go downstairs to get your mail and their chaka khan like hey girl what's up you know like thank you wanna go out partying let's party so okay we're going to skip ahead about twenty years after she's established he's beautiful luxury apartments now irene is eighty two years sold on june fourteenth nineteen ninety eight a young businessman from palm beach named manny garren arrives at irene's home asking if he can rent one of his apartments he is traditionally good looking like lou diamond phillips special something you know everybody has different tastes we talk talk about people being good looking at beautiful time but who knows what people like you don't get a fucking say in it that's right traditionally good-looking means if someone drew a picture that's what a good looking person look like right look hugh grant traditionally good luck traditionally good-looking right but there's lots of people who are good looking dapper eh anyhow self esteem he's good looking traditionally well-spoken very friendly very charming i'm very smooth he tells iran he was referred by a mutual friend she recognizes the name oh you know it's all great or the marchioness from it's a yeah it's the marchioness us or the marquess unfortunately manny doesn't have any ID on him can't remember his social security number and the only he doesn't have any other references but he promises he's going to get them to irene the next day and then he gives her six grand in cash for his first month's rent so ordinarily irene there's actually very careful about stuff like this but because they have mutual friend and because he's paying in cash and probably because he's traditionally good-looking incredibly charming she allows him to move in the day of day of fact that okay everyone will and also well ninety eight early days of the internet yeah that's ten and eighty two year old woman wouldn't real absolutely it was all there at our fingertips okay so over the course of the next three weeks manny goes from being a charming suave a businessman type to a creepy weirdo he never turns over the proper ID or references he will not allow irene's maids into the unit to clean which goes along with your six thousand dollar rent ready yeah kind of like hotel he always hides his face from the security camera in irene's lobby show very acorn shell and he always has strange guests in his apartment and including an older woman who seems to be there all the time john chaka khan shocker gone she would shock would never go down she knows creeps when she sees him right now in the mary tyler moore movie that i watched watched she tells when the maid comes she tells her that she is manny's assistant and is very rude to the man so she doesn't make any friends so so basically after the first week irene decide she's gonna ask manny to leave she's like you had your you had your month enough of this he flatly refuses flabby creepy can you imagine that traditionally handsome i am flatly refusing something then you're just like well i guess this is the new reality yeah because the the hawk doesn't want to right well here's what irene does 'cause she didn't take any shit she cuts off his phone line thinking that's going to get him out of there and she begins eviction shen proceedings so she's immediately kicking yourself for being nice yeah which is what happened always a mistake so on the evening of saturday july fourth nineteen ninety eight i arena has friends over 'cause it's fourth of july and they also have noticed manny's strange behavior she irene explains the whole situation and her friends are very concerned and they say you know like do you need help what he wants to do she says that she can handle it they know she's tough as his nails so you know everybody feels okay about it the next morning july fifth nineteen ninety eight irene asks one of her maids if she would run some errands for her and when the made gets back from running those errands she can't find irena anywhere in the house from the made immediately contact irene's business manager who then decides to contact like the police and when the police searched the home they don't find any signs of disturbance there's no blood inside the struggled indicate that there was violence or or an incident of any kind so they start questioning irene's friends and the tenants but manny garin is nowhere to be found and when they run a name check on on that one new mysterious tenant the name manny garin is fake so suddenly the mystery tenant is now possible suspect in iran's disappearance it just so happens that on that same night july fifth a mother and son by the name of sean taylor and kenneth times are arrested in front of the manhattan hilton holton for stealing a lincoln towncar from a dealership in cedar city utah wow yes they finally tracked them down and they get arrested so when a detective who was on the scene for the silverman case sees the story of the crimes arrest on the news he sees kenneth and says that looks looks exactly like the description of manny garin and handsome hey that guy's traditionally handsome in a way that bores me but that but then i also immediately immediately trust for reasons i can't explain so he puts it together that they are one in the same person so on july seventh nineteen ninety eight the NYPD have shontayne kenneth times properly identified and in custody and that's when they discovered that the mother and son are being tracked by the FBI as suspects for a slew of crimes across across the nation including arson fraud and murder okay so now we'll go back we'll talk a little bit about sean times she was born sandra louise sing in oklahoma city on july twenty fourth nineteen thirty four she grows up in nevada with her parents mary van horn and mahendra promising and there's almost nothing known about her childhood factually they believe that her birth certificate was forged forged so her exact origins and even date of birth are they're not sure creepy about it and the funny thing is is mary tyler moore playing sean take himes all she talks about how much she hates getting older and aging it's it's pretty funny so it would make sense that the first thing she does erase her birth sir
