Leanne you talked consternation about the among some Republicans. Johnson was pretty explicit about how concerned he is about the president of this sense. He doesn't have to vote but what do his remarks signify? It signifies the conversation that Republicans are in fact having about this. They do not want Santos as part of their party. They do not want Santos in Congress but they also don't want to set a new precedent. Speaker Johnson doesn't have to The vote. speaker doesn't have to vote so we don't know if he's going to cast that vote but The precedent setting measures are concerning for many however though Republicans have set many precedents already this year including 15 rounds of balloting for speaker of the house and ousting that speaker several months later.

"Then president old for back in the nineteen seventies his logical approach to politics helps shape foreign affairs he helped the u s remove itself from the vietnam war and fad relations with china his uncommon influence this on global affairs earned him both vilification and a nobel peace prize this morning politicos senior editor david cohen joins our dimitri solis to tell us more about his complicated legacy certainly almost felt like the man was going to live forever he was he had not let up he was just in china a months ago at age one hundred where they celebrated him for being the person who connected the united states and china we need to talk about vietnam a tumultuous time in our country's history for sure but where did the vilification come from where did the criticism come from i think the criticism of kissinger was based on the fact that nixon and kissinger regarded the world as a big passport to be played i mean i know that's an oversimplification but they saw superpower politics they tried to as kissinger said get rid of all sentimentality from international relations and if you think about it that suggests the world where say suffering human doesn't matter so much as long as you come out on the right side at the end i think that was a big factor in the criticism of him so there's the negative side and can we return to that i don't want to gloss over it but what about his triumphs and even winning the nobel peace prize which some of his detractors still perhaps can't fully believe he certainly helped to reorder the old nixon and kissinger together they broke a log jam the cold war had been very stagnant for more than 20 years 25 years and they kind of reordered things so that us had relations with china the us had better relations with the soviet union there was definitely an impact in terms of making things change some for the better some for the worse but they changed the way in a world that made a lot of progress possible let's uh talk about how he had an impact even today you just talked about a recent trip to china at the age of a hundred we know that former presidents obama and trump sat down with him it's impossible to believe that joe biden had not encountered henry kissinger many times along the way why would a us president's either about to take office or in office seek his advice well there was a notion that he he was the older statesman of international politics that he was the person who understood how for lack of a better term the game was played and that if you wanted insight that perhaps no one else could provide you know seasoned with his great experience he was the person to ask he was the person to go to that is political senior editor david cohen in the conversation with our demetri sodas on wtop look at the top stories we're following you this morning breaking this overly early morning word at the last minute here that israel and hamas have apparently agreed extend to that temporary truce an additional day cbs reports this morning hamas is willing to hand over the remaining hostages for the release of all palestinians held in israeli prisons former first lady rosalynn carter has been laid tourists to this week in plains georgia

"So frustrated with toxic. Were coulter returning bed to bed. And but we've seen over this past year to have is that we finally have realized that health is wealth. And it's like. I'm not gonna put my sight. You know my brain through my my mental health through that my physical hill through that and other do what's right for me and therefore working in that environment it. I'm just not returning back to the same thing you know. It's interesting because we had this conversation as well with the group that i was talking about just now and that was around just sitting in the broken this of the pandemic and all of the craziness that was going on around us the death the destruction the jobless rates the economy faltering The lockdown all of this stuff but there was some collateral beauty in it for a lot of people. And you mentioned something. That's very important especially for people who were historically under represented Maybe marginalized even as women who've gone into this workplace and face. All of these sometimes unspoken things like microaggressions inside but we solis in being camera off on thursdays calls many clients that said that they love the idea that they could just not faith the folks that they had to face day in. And oh absolutely you know because of the other side of film. Psychologically safe is that okay. Let's say that. I work in this toxic work environment was dealing with certain phase. And when i came home. This was my safe place where i feel psychologically safe and now i've been bite that toxic work environment into my home. Yeah so now looking at the same. Repeat the very people that have caused me great deal and stress and discontent now in my safe place so now exactly like you described. I don't even wanna do that anymore. By coach her into my home anymore. Into my sake space. And you're right. There's a lot of zoom fatigue. You know what. I'm doing a lot of training about inclusion. You know also talk about. What does inclusion look like in the virtual workplace. You know a lot of times. We think about engagement. Experience and inclusion is only for sitting side by side with each other. But to me as we talk through these virtual walls you know our computer screen right that also invites a great deal of bias. A great deal of assumptions. And things like that because now you have a preview into a world that you didn't know about me we didn't know previously so perhaps i didn't disclose at work what my sexual orientation is what my disability status as familiar status or socioeconomic status. And now you get to glimpse right behind me and see certain things that maybe i didn't want you to see and maybe i don't feel comfortable saying and guess what now that clean up my room so that was great workspace so again. I think it's just a two way street You know if you didn't have a culture that invited inclusion and positively then. It doesn't matter if it's onsite all site many people just said as your book says no no they absolutely These are conversations that i with more and more sponsors for people who were having executives coached and might say. Well you know what. I really want them to step up and lead even when we have our client calls. They'll show up camera off. Well one of the things that i learned in the midst of pandemic while i was lecturing at the university was that we did not mandate that people be camera on for some of the reasons that you kind of alluded to in that is you know you don't have an understanding of what people's worlds are and if they live in a tiny space or a space that is you know they wanna share people will actually start to judge you based on. What's behind you or move things that aren't behind you. Some of these students had other siblings. That we're trying to share the same device. You know to get their work done up instantly you know. Zoom became a window into people's homes. Intrusive it is. It is absolutely you know. So you're right it. Should i hear a lot of debate with the clients that support of should it be clamor on camera camera off and i'm like why does there have to be a policy around it. Just be your preference right. I'm a camera on people. I'm a people person. I want to look people straighten. There is when i talk to them. But that's my preference. That's what makes me comfortable right. Ish should be a level of comfort. Maybe some days you know what. I just don't feel well today. I don't wanna put on makeup. I don't wanna be camera ready. I don't clean my room. you know so. Those days are camera off just as let us be again. We thought about that word inclusion. We've got into the virtual workplace. Yeah and part of that. Inclusive environment is understanding people's preferences in terms of camera. I'm here. I'm working on the you hear me. What's the difference if if you see me right and if we think about you know just maybe a couple of years prior to the pandemic we have platforms that you use in a couple of other things but we were using conference calls. We'll say we forgot. It's like what happened to the conference call. And we know what the ol- cultures at work that felt like. We need to be looking at you because now you're working at home. It's an air of distrust and people feel that and it causes them to react in a certain way as well. How does that have a negative impact on the culture. Absolutely it is. It is a thing of trust right you you see. I'm being productive z. That i'm probably be a more productive here that i am actually in my workspace physical environment. And when you're saying i need to look at you some to prove to you that i'm present right. We had all kind of world transactions that happening globally Through conference calls to just pick it up a telephone. You know it's for some reason it's just a level of trust in again is bringing that saying toxic worked energy into our homes right and yet has aided That just that needs to. You know what i don't have to retire one way or the other rather remote or onsite on town of dealing with just this distrust. I'm tired of the lack of flexibility. Because now you're bringing all these turn policies and put him in a box in my own so again. We talk about inclusion. It should just be whatever. Your preference is on that day in that moment for that.

And you know they really thought that all this land surrounding land the phrase us was any place where serb was was serbia or any. I think they use like maybe a an orthodox church brit the exact Phrasing of that. But i mean they're nationalist movements very very hyper So you think that they kinda like china has like kind of like this han centric type ethnic nationalism character to it definitely.

They won't even acknowledge that such as a separate language even though linguists would ever say that it wasn't you know yeah it's easier to build a nation state that way when you have one dominant ethnic religious group and the serbs. They weren't unique. I mean that was the will sony and vision and it was just a carry-over of of the the spirit that dominated the nineteenth century in europe.

They'll use chair or like you know like denmark denmark not socialist anyway going back to china so the outcome of a lot of these socialist or communist projects often doesn't pan out in the way that would be helpful or in the way that the people who you know you said yourself. Hey i'd be down for communism. If i was put in that position for a lot of the people who were down for communism in that moment it didn't necessarily pan out super well for everyone some of the stats that you brought up earlier.

Across all of the people per capita it's like ten cave versus are sixty five care and that's just what they report right. Exactly this is what they're reporting so there's obviously poverty right. There's obviously food Issues i know that you wrote in your article on a per capita basis that judge china has less arable agricultural land in saudi arabia which obviously means they need to import a shutdown of their own food or heavily process like chemically. You know all of their food stuff. So there's poverty monetary poverty. There's food poverty there's income inequality the whole range of issues that affect at this point potentially billions of people in china because they have molten alot not billions millions of people So i'm wondering a bit about you know you've also wrote in your article that the ccp faces multiple permanent secessionist dangers far from its core and a wondering if the kind of failures of communism in china is driving any serious secessionist movements in china. So who might be if that's the case and you know what's what's up with that okay.

If need yeah. I mean yeah i mean. The media is trying to scare them. These publications are trying to scare them. Like that is what it's for. I mean you have to convince people that there's a reason they should do this stuff like they.

I conclude my article by arguing. That being confrontational with china only will serve to give the ccp. A crutch because when it all goes to helena handbasket. They can point to the us lurking offshore with their carrier strike groups. And you know You know waging economic warfare and tariffs. So they're going to be able to say. The americans did this us because they don't want china to take its proper place in the global world. they don't wanna share the stage with us and the right their rights. So so you're proposing more lazy-faire fair approach to china. The correct answer is do nothing. China's blowing up the cpi is blowing itself up. What didn't send sue once they never get in the way of An enemy who's making a mistake or never interrupted enemy. Who's making the same school. But that sounds like something you would say absolutely. Yeah i do. That's the earn. Your yeah well you know it's funny about this. It kind of is kind of Similar to when the us will you know like cuba protests or one guido or sanctions on venezuela Socialists will be like well you know what the reason why. These countries are failing economically because the us sanctions so us sanctioned kinda serves as a talking point Four those economic policies because they can go back and say. Hey what well. It's not that the economic system is is failing. It's it's because of the us sanctions as us foreign policy. That's why we're in this predicament has nothing to do with like you know. Our own policies So i guess you're saying that this same If the us does you know puts more sanctions on china that they'll use that as a way to justify or to explain you know the crisis of their own making.

I know i just asked you. But i'm horrible with pronouncing names. I mispronounced the annie's name all the time and we've been podcasting for three years. You got it all right perfect. Who's a political scientist. Joseph you've written some really great stuff and you know i've i've learned a lot about china from you know you wrote this fantastic article on macys. Dot org called a china won't be taking over the world which You know we're going to be talking about among other things But it is going to lead this off by just giving you my initial take on china like my my very high level taken. You can just kind of take the ball from there and tell me if you agree or disagree or you know. Whatever needs further explanation. But in the words of the late. Justin raimondo No i believe. China is a paper tiger however the narrative out there is no. China is on the verge of world domination. And frankly i. I just don't think that's true. I think that they have a lot of problems that prevent them from you know quote unquote dominating the rest of the world not to say that a aren't totalitarian government. I just don't think that there are about to You know do a beachhead landing on the coast of california so this so-called threat china threat. It just seems like a bunch of hype to me in my eyes. So if you could i guess give your general take and kind of just snow expand on that and maybe even just kind of tell us where your knowledge from china comes as well. Great So i guess i'll start with the last one i As a political scientist I study a lot of different things. actually Back in graduate school now doing an economics degree at the university of missouri So i i tend to throw a wide net.

And i wonder what you think about this because you said like people were glad that played in a way to recognize that we felt something like the way. Humans play and didn't seem like solis but a third option. Which i think has not happened would be what if it played and won a lot but it played in some like alien way. So you're like okay. i recognize. I'm like play against the feels like it has a style but the style is completely alien to anything i've ever encountered. How do you think people in the community would have responded to that. I would say that that was the previous computer programs more. Oh that was why. I felt like it was so refreshing because it felt like i guess the previous computer programs which we still use their fantastic of more. They're more like the traditional programs that use like more of a brute force approach to playing the best chess possible which i guess would have been similar to like the checkers program to new gray rum. And they're still fantastic. They still be all the best players in the world but the one thing that they often got caught in was these circles where they would just do. Three move repetition and alpha zero. I guess figured a way out of those circles lake the moments where like stock fish would think like. Oh you should go for the three move draw repetition because there's no better path year whereas somehow alpha zero would often avoid those and look for look for wins in because of that played more aggressively which felt more human because a lot of risk and aggression. Yeah it's interesting. Because i think you see these kind of automated language generation programs which i'm also really interested in what you built on the same kind of neural architecture. That zero is they do get caught in these loops. Actually like one way that they're not human is that they're trying to so to speak. Think of the next thing that you might say and they will sometimes get caught in a loop that a human would never get caught in. You can see this by the way. Do you ever do this. Do you ever like just hit the auto fill like you're writing a text message and you're like what would happen if i just hit auto fill next word like again and again and again and if you do it like one hundred times it will often like get caught in a loop like that. There's some kind of global picture that at the moment these devices mostly don't have interesting. Yeah wow what the ask you actually about your writing process as i'm sure it doesn't involve neural nets..

Art and Climate Fatigue
"My name's zoe set a kiss ski. And i'm a senior electra. At the school of design at ut and a lot of my research is around how we can visually communicate ecological issues like climate change and biodiversity loss in a way that engages people in mexican think about action that they can take and ways that we could adapt to live differently for a more sustainable future. So what is comet fatigue. And why don't we feel it. Yeah climate fatigue and eko anxiety. This lots of tomes for these things And it's it's very real. I mean i feel a sense of grief and anxiety often in the research that i do But i think what's really important is starting to accept and engage with those feelings and not hide behind them feeling the feelings it seems straightforward but when we're experiencing such lodge ecological shifts at a rapid right.

Good and what's been key for you doing that. Well it's an attitude modal shift. It's about coming quite close. Grind new everything because we kind of has to from a physicality pointed year but also say i don't accepting the world's assets and during what al various antithesis of done during tough times and bunk down and refocus attention on allah chains which what are united out to be more important things like loved ones and shot and just noticing. Things are being probably more discerning. Yeah thank descendants and deliberateness probably cheap things. Nothing on. I haven't thought about this until you just asked me out but that certainly not being doing out cut and the the wonderful thing is is it's actually being the shift a wanted to do anyway and nothing forced into which funneled into it and i wonder how many other people going through this are going through similar thing where you know. It was time to maybe make some adjustments in reprioritize. And now this is. This is forcing things. Stop for people. I call kinda the great reveal and it's of covid uncover a redundancies pop from anything else. Try that just no longer service. And we've had to kind of look at them.

But during the whole kind of shutdowns will be head. He people have these big shiny. Black full will drive sitting in their driveways doing nothing. Solis things that i'd put money and to suddenly didn't really count. We had to racist bunch of things. It's good from that point. And i think a lot of people have been surprised that i and very climate activists and and people who are in the values community has been trying to spread many many years old. Got illustrated gossip dumped on all of this in all at once. And even even the inequalities that i think became manifest during this period. They needed to be outed. I mean that was a gift in itself. You know seeing how i'm stanley paid nece and from one work is often with bankers and stockbrokers who all of a sudden didn't serve a purpose but also singing in the racial inequalities. I'm not that surprised that the black lives matters. Issue surfaced is such a broad way during olive. Fits those scab taken. And we're having to deal with the. Wade's and that's a great thing. And i think a big part of this in something you talked about in. The new book is dealing with uncertainty. There's so much uncertainty even in the middle of this pandemic were. We're not through this yet. We're still in the middle and figuring things out so there's a lot of uncertainty and that's that's inherent life general. But i think this. This is zoomed in and focusing people in on that and making people figure out a way to deal with that in a healthy way. Yeah i mean. I think what it done system once again as a reveal it as the reveal. It's revealed how ill-equipped we are to deal with uncertainty as united. Just you know talk about this in quite a bit of detail. Part of the book is set it up so that i try to articulate what the issues are why we are where we are so i will nearly capitalism out consumption addiction and then the lonely and fragmentation but one of the things i talk about is how we have become a society. Couldn't ourselves from a whole bunch of discomfit right including uncertainty. So i use the example of how we order a pizza seraing on an at. We don't make enough to sit down. Go wonder how long what hates is going to take because the app tells stride. There's no delayed. Gratification is nice spended knowingness we have cocooned ourselves from all the discomforts acceptable real life. Because real loss when it hits us is uncertain. You get what you want. There's a whole on knowingness this itchiness. Louis says is frustrations disappointment. Manage to kinda seductively convince ourselves. We don't have to deal with those things apps and coal centers and we complain about everything the whole karen's nominee on that kind of thing. Where where this is all happening. But of course when a real disaster hit over real uncertainty strike says with got nine muscle with mental grit and resilience. That's what i identifies pot of the core and zaid the global anxiety that west kneeling at the moment comes from that we are ill-equipped and so my book tries to in the course of a couple of hundred pages make up the lost ground and really rally people to get onto re appreciate abuse of getting resilient to this stuff

You probably didn't have blockbusters. Did you have blocked jason lately. Yeah okay well so there you go. So everyone kind of connects to these major brands. Right and in fact a lot of us feel very think about how you have apple people windows people. I mean we invest a lot of our identity into these brands. Will that i think is what business wars is all about. We're sort of looking at these battles between these titans. A lot of these brands that have become household names. And we're looking at it from the inside out so sometimes you get a sense of how. The ceo or the entrepreneur started up a business because they wanted to get rich or they just wanted to get someone's attention sometimes. It's because they want to beat the other guy you know. They think they can do computers better. You think about the steve jobs story for example is those kinds of stories and when we started to go deeper and started to do some the early research on the program we realized. Wow it's calm surprising that this hasn't been mind more. You think about the recent movie. What is it the movie about. Ford and ferrari in a way. That's a kind of business where unto itself and it's so cinematic and there are these larger than life characters behind the scenes and those are the kind of characters we try to bring out in business wars usually at six episodes over the course of about three weeks or so with two episodes coming out every week and each of them has about thirty minutes long and at the end of these six episodes quite often will spend another thirty minutes doing an in depth interview with someone perhaps someone who wrote the book on this particular business war or maybe someone who knows a lot about the industry that kind of thing. That's what business was is all about. How did you come to host one of the most popular business. Podcasts wasn't an idea that hernan lopez the founder of came with or was it. Something you suggested it was it was actually not neither a. We didn't know each other he used to work for. You probably heard of the fox networks. I think there's a famous australian behind some of that famous. Yeah well he used to work for the international arm of that and he saw what was happening with podcasts. Several years ago and so he'd come up with this idea. Well i used to be the host of a program on public radio here in the states. it's called marketplace. Still on the air and it's a national public radio style program and it's heard across the country and i was based in l. a. And while there. I made a lot of great friends and rub shoulders with a lot of really terrific producers and one of those producers ended up at wondering in la. And i had since moved from los angeles to austin texas which is why more met now. And one day. I get this call. And it's from one of the former producers at marketplace and she says. Hey i'm working over wondering what's wondering whether it's a script podcast platform and my boss. I told him about you because he has this idea for business wars. Would you be interested in talking with him about it. He got on the line and he said i'll send you over a script and maybe we can just Just wanna hear you talk. And so we started talking and he said well. If you'd like it we'd love for you to do it. And it all happened very quickly. And i didn't really know what i was getting myself into. I figured maybe this will be a three or four shows and so now here it is about to two years at a couple of months into it later and We now have gosh. I don't even know how many episodes out there now but a lot

DHS chief claims some deported parents "have chosen to separate" from their kids
"The status of children separated from their parents at the US border, the media focused on a headline. Five hundred, forty, five kids, and they can't find their parents. It was so sad it came up during the debate Biden, referred to what is criminal Well, we turn to the National Review One of the few main one of the few media outlets that will actually look a little further into the story. And even trump didn't really answer the question because I don't think he knew how to handle the question, but he didn't read the report. Well. As they right here. There's a couple of numbers that have received significantly less attention to most news reports about the ACLU's legal fight. Four hundred, eighty, five, the number of children whose parents have been located and zero. The how many of those parents have sought to have their children returned home? That's the true story here these four hundred eighty-five parents have gone back to their home country they got deported they got deported and they didn't want their kids to go with they have been contacted by Homeland Security and they have refused to take their children back. They don't want their kids sent back to the home country. They want to wait and see if there's some way they can get into the United States to be reunified with their children. Go the I mean this is this is big because. The. Way The story was presented. It was like Oh are incompetent solis government leaving these children stranded without their parents can't find their parents know they've been actively looking for the parents but many of them are in foreign countries but they have found four, hundred, eighty, five of them chase jennings is a spokesman for the Department of Homeland. Security. Any says the simple fact is this after contact has been made with the parents to reunite them with their children many parents have refused at the four, hundred, eighty, five children. That, we've been able to contact. They have yet to identify a single family that wants their child reunited with them in their country of origin. That for family values how where's that for a headline? On. Line an ACLU lawyer by the name of legal aren't said well, yes. It's not because his parents don't want to be reunited with the kids they overwhelmingly do. It's just that they don't want to be reunited in their home countries well, rather they want to be reunited in the United. States

Upgrade your tech every year?
"Find out more after the show. It's always great hearing from your fans even when they want you to shut up. I got a lot of nasty tweets and emails this weekend in response to my piece about surrendering Apple Samsung and Google, and just admitting that perhaps it's best to just upgrade every year. I mean the new phones are so good. You'll pay about five hundred dollars a year swap them out if you resell the latest version. For the new iphone twelve I get a markedly improved camera. A screen said to be less susceptible to cracking spitfire processor and all in all a sweeter design. I think it's worth five hundred dollars a year to get the latest and greatest even pandemic but you know it's all relative and it's about your priorities. Others didn't exactly agree with me. Here's an email from an unsigned fan quote wake up to your surroundings, Graham are you happy writing terrible articles with no basis people are laughing at you they make fun of your work because it's Solis in inconsequential. It's amazing how people can get upset over an article Another responded quote. Do you really believe what you wrote? I never send emails to columnists but this annoyed me enough to look up your contact information. The article had no basis in reality. Okay, your basic troll insults the one point that did come through for many however was that I was advocating something that harm the environment quote your justification for why you need to upgrade a one thousand dollar plus phone. Every year is environmentally and financially harmful and ignorant said one said another well yeah. Of course, it's better for the industry in the economy to force people to buy a new phone. Every year who cares about how wasteful that is or how most people can't afford to choose to do something like that unquote. So let me respond I never suggested tossing the phones away never, but instead to trade or sell them to let others use the phones there are many sites that by back phones for cash like decluttering Gazelle and apple in the wireless carriers offered trading value on new purchases. In both instances the phones get refurbished and used again usually in developing countries what about longevity aren't the phone's built to last of course there's no reason you couldn't keep using phone from three or four years ago maybe even older, it'll do. Okay. I like the new advancements in features you may not care. That's fine. But there are situations where your old phone may be cracked. The battery may be falling apart. You can't charge it as well as they used to and websites won't load because time has moved on and new software won't work with them anymore case in point I spoke to someone complaining that her zoom sessions kept breaking and the sound quality was poor.

Former Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis endorses Biden at 2020 DNC
"Joe Biden has a plan to help working families and small businesses. Our next speaker healed us. Elise worked alongside him as secretary of Labor to make sure that there were good American jobs and that Americans were safe on the job. To hear more about the Biden Harris economic plan, please welcome Hilda Solis. Hello. I'm Hilda Solis. The day, Vice President Biden swore me in as secretary of labor was one of the proudest moments of my life. My parents realize they've achieved their American dream. Because the daughter of two blue collar immigrants would make history and give voice to people just like them. American workers need a fighter now, more than ever, and Joe Biden is that person because he has done it before, and I've seen it firsthand. He and President Obama made it easier for home care workers to organize. They extended overtime pay to more than four million workers. They say the automobile industry and a whole lot of good union jobs with it. And when millions of families lost their homes. My friend from California Senator Kamala Harris took on the big banks and won. But because of Donald Trump's failures, we must once again rescue a sinking economy. Millions of Americans are out of work and communities of color are the hardest hit. Millions of a central workers are putting their lives at risk with little protections and millions war are just playing tired. That's why Joe Biden Kamala Harris actually have a plan not only to recover what we lost, but to improve upon it. Toe build back better, creating five million good union jobs by bringing back supply chains to America that's building back better. Creating millions of jobs by investing in clean energy that's building back better and making sure that working families can't afford childcare. That's how we build back better. So let me borrow and slightly edit something, Joe Biden said at my swearing in when it comes to expanding the economy for all people, No one. No one is going to be a stronger voice than our next president Joe Biden.

Joe Biden's Potential Running Mate: Susan Rice
"Joe Biden is believed to be getting close to naming his running mate in this year's presidential election. One of those on Biden's short list for the job is Susan Rice. She has deep experience as an ambassador and in national security, but not as a candidate. NPR's Don Gani reports. Susan Rice has a ready answer when asked about the possibility of being Joe Biden's pick for vice president, whether I'm his running mate, or I'm a door knocker. I don't mind this was on NBC's Meet the press, and I'm going to do everything I can. To help get Joe Biden elected him to help him succeed is president. Her resume is deep. Rhodes scholar, State Department ambassador to the U. N. Obama's national security advisor, rise His vice presidential prospects gain strength as calls for Biden to name an African American woman grew during this summer's black lives matter. Protests And she is known to be tough. This is from an appearance on NPR last fall, My dad had a mantra that comes from his experience growing up in the segregated South, and in the twenties and thirties and Serving and segregated Air Force A Tuskegee during World War two. Hey, always told me and my brother don't take crap off of anybody. Of all the potential Biden running mates. None can match rice on foreign policy. But to many her inclusion on the short list is curious because that skill set duplicates Biden's own strength. He has deep foreign policy experience from his decades in the Senate. There is one big gap in Rice's resume. She has never held elective office never been a candidate, veteran Democratic strategist Patti Solis Doyle says in 2020. That particular shortcoming may not matter at all, given how campaigning has changed under the pandemic. No arousing public speeches, no handshakes at the local diner That's not happening anymore. And so that skill is not as valuable as it was, Say four years ago. The pandemic also complicates the vetting process. Those one on one get acquainted meetings between Biden and potential nominees will certainly be different. But Biden already knows Rice well, including from hours and hours together in the Oval Office during the Obama years. If there's one person that knows that Susan Rice has been in the room and can handle the pressure, it's Joe Biden. Joe Joe Biden has seen it firsthand. One certain line of attack Republicans will use against Rice. If she's on the ticket is Benghazi. That's the 2012 assault on a U. S diplomatic compound in Libya that killed four Americans. When it happened Rice one on TV and called the Assault an act of spontaneous violence that was later shown to be incorrect. All these years later, it remains a rallying cry for Republicans. In fact, here is Secretary of State Mike Pompeo just this month talking about Rice and Benghazi on Fox News. She went on and made up a story about a video in a protest when she knew full well that this was a terror attack. In the end, multiple GOP led congressional enquiries into Benghazi uncovered no wrongdoing by the Obama administration. Susan Rice, meanwhile, is looking ahead early this year. She was on a panel and caution that if Democrats retake the White House, they'll need to respect institutions and show respect to their opponents. There will be
Marketplace Tech with Molly Wood
Small business emergency lending program expands fintechs portfolios
"The paycheck protection program is a weekend to its second round of hopefully funding small businesses through the corona virus outbreak. Some financial tech companies also known as Syntax got permission from Congress to offer those loans. They include pay pal into it cabbage and others. The hope is that they can get loans to people and businesses who haven't worked with traditional banks in the past and the Fintech say they're tack is also an advantage but so is that true. Let's dig into it and quality assurance the segment where we take a second look at Big Tech Story Felix. Salmon is chief financial correspondent for the tech site axios. The banks were a bit slow to be able to set up websites that customers found it impossible to get to a to a human being or to find out where they stood whether their applications were going through and there was a general feeling that given that all of this was being done on the Internet the Internet companies might be better doing it than the banks were so relatively quickly. This program was opened up so that the eligible lenders included not only banks but also Internet companies Lake Pay Pal and quicken and square. Gotcha I mean. I feel like one of the questions about these lenders. And FINTECH companies and neo banks in particular is that in some ways they serve. Replace this idea of the Community Bank. Like do we have any evidence that they are or could be more inclusive than established lenders. I think they are in the if you applied for P. P. Loan from pay pal. Then your chances of guessing it. We're probably the same no matter who you were given that many of the people applying if not most of the businesses applying had no particular relationship with these Fintech to begin with now doesn't mean they're going to get that loans. It's far from clear that the ability of pay pal to get loans through the SBA system and get people. Funded is any greater than any other bank. But at least you can feel that you're on a level playing field if that's any. Solis which you probably isn't to be honest. Who is applying through? Let's say pay pal or square or into it. Who are these small businesses to a first Brooks mission? Everyone who didn't get a loan or wasn't able to get through when applying through that bank. Whatever the reason was if you haven't got your money it's not give up on your bank entirely but you say well. Maybe I can't get a loan through my bank. I should try a getting along with someone else and given the it's not difficult to apply through pay pal. Oh quicken intuit it. You May as well try if they come back to you and say hey you've been funded. Brin and you can take the money and if they don't it's no harm no foul and is there any evidence or will there ever be a way to tell you think whether they claim that these kind of like tech driven platforms are more nimble and better able to get your application through than a big bank the banks and the Fintech have all been extremely unhelpful? When people like you and me have been asking them for details about how many people try to apply. How many of those people who try to apply actually got their money those ratios on not public information than the information that the SBA has see you need to get that information directly from each one. And I don't think any of them are going to be releasing that data on the kind of apples to apples basis that we'll be able to make that determination. Is this an opportunity for these companies like if they are able to establish themselves as this type of lender or just do good by some small businesses is an opportunity for them to build a customer base down the road I think for about twenty four rows an opportunity to get some goodwill? I think the small business owners actually went to those places putting their applications and then didn't receive any money that some of that goodwill did evaporate. What's more of these companies? Aunt actually lenders at heart companies like paypal and square a much more based on payments on loans. And so. It's not clear that even if this did give them a foot in the door when it came to small business lending that something that they would really want to be right and it feels like certainly some of them have provided loans like cabbage are into it but the others haven't to think they're likely to discover that in fact. This is a terrible morass that they would like to back out of slowly. Small business loans were horrible thing to be in in general because small businesses so many things can go wrong is so difficult to really get under the hood and find out how credit worthy they are for. P. It's different because it's all guaranteed by the government so you don't need to spend too much time really underwriting the loan and understanding the business before extending the credit but if you want to actually lend money to small businesses as part of your business especially if you're doing unsecured and you're not you don't have access to cash flows which you can just S- ts to pay back the loan. Then yeah it's really Nali business where lots of lenders have become unstuck. And it's not clear that very many investors want these companies to get into that line of

But Nick has a very special position as the sole lawyer I am. CF is legal department. Yes yes this is at now center for inquiry. Yeah we talk about CFI every now and then on the show we all talk about the CFI the investigations group wing of that. I've been involved with for many many years and our first episode was recorded at the old. CF I- office and guess what we are now at the new CFI office which is still in La but now on Temple Street yeah come on by visit. There's going to be lectures all kinds of stuff.

And wants to come talk about. Books is trying to get people to your book. I am absolutely the more the Mary Nick. How long have you been working with just over six years? I think it was six years in September that I started. And how did they lure you in. I'd like to give this sort of great story about how you know. I was led by the heart and emotion to the nonprofit world but I'll to law school I worked for a a big law. Firm represented fortune five hundred companies and received obscene paychecks. So doing and probably would of ended up doing that for the rest of my life because the paychecks are really compelling sure I'm syncing regretted and my phone went bankrupt really ooh God which which kind of happens to law firms occasionally and just imploded and through a combination of very weird circumstances and says I was offered another couple of jobs and failed the conflict check because I've done and then I was offered a job and it turned out that it was the law firm that my brother works for in the London office. And they have anti nepotism world. But he's not your nephew. Indeed you know I got. I need a job. I saw advertised that which was an organization. Confess I had never heard of. I was looking for somebody to though I amendment law which was kind of a passion of mine and so I applied without thinking a lot about that and then the more all right look at the organization I was like this is great. And if I don't get out of the big low world now I am never going to do it right. I'm so I took the plunge and I went off from work and I always say that I much prefer my job now to my old job two days a month when eh the first one came into nightly took it back to run Lensey at the time. I think there's a misprint. No zero somewhere. Oh my goodness misplaced. We should probably describe. CFI A little more. The center for inquiry was founded in nineteen seventy six thereabouts By Paul Kurtz and other leading lights of the critical thinking skeptical humanist Atheist Movement you had Isaac Asimov Carl Sagan. I'm James Randi Lot of those types involved early on in it's kind of existed for many years in two parts. You have your council for secular humanism which is all about sort of that humanist side more the philosophy side and then what was originally the committee for skeptical inquiry of claims of the paranormal S. I I just notice I cop yes okay. Not sure I had ever known instead I I may have messed up the CSI part of it because now it's just CSI it's not to be confused with CSI Miami or the other TV shows but it's the committee for skeptical inquiry. I think the original psycho had a different acronym boot good. Yeah so you came in six years ago now. We really brushed past what sounded like a very juicy. You See story what the Hell happened with your firm and what what were your conflicts of interest. This is the real juicy stuff neck. I wish I mean I wish the the foam went bankrupt Tom if they even have. La Office okay and a fell into the problem of expanding too quickly. Okay and have have a Salt Lake City office. I think which never made any money. Okay Mormons elements and they don't do anything wrong. Yeah and what happened with me on conflicts. lex They totally bizarre was had done seven hours work on a huge class action lawsuit that was representing. I can't even remember if we were representing or defending against the dairy farmers of microbes. Like milk price fixing literally did seven billable hours on this house else. Just something I filled in when I had some slow time And we would have to have got a signature to waive the conflict from every single angled member of the plaintiff's class that was like every thousand dairy amazing. CIC probably wasn't going to happen so net could go off from what for another. Solis got it. Wow a milky or story than I thought but not that. Jessie yes. Okay so then you came here. Also Solis but in a good way. Yes yes good solace and you were drawn to the First Amendment side of things so why would cfi what. Why would they be interested in First Amendment Law? Well they advertised the position in this was I was a little concerned about it I they described himself as a secular organization tonight. The first time I read it I thought it said sectarian organizations convinced applying to sort of a Catholic human human rights so tons out so get it did was talking about work and international human rights work and charged site separation law. And if you look at law school everyone takes criminal law classes in everyone takes the constitutional law classes because that Pham on and it's Great. It provides you conversation to talk about in bars some when you walk in lower northern things and then you end up working proofreading some four hundred page contracts for an oil company. Nobody practices what they want to. And everybody goes to law school saying I'm going to be a public defender or I'm going going to be a prosecutor on the. I'm going to work for a nonprofit and no one ever done you end up doing the drywall in the the lawyer industry. Yes and you get rewarded awarded very very nicely for but every lawyer I know they live for that. Pro Bono cases. Yeah I had some great ones arm and gives you a chance to you feel I making the world a better place. Exactly one person at the time you get the cool stories out of at night so many thought.
