i think obama -- i think obama pushed biden more to the left, there's no question about that. as you would probably expect, given he was working underneath president obama. but i think they became good friends over the course of their eight years, which isn't always the case with presidential and vice-presidential relationships. and i think he came to trust biden more and he became more -- he started to rely on him more the longer they were together in the white house. steve: there was this moment in one of the final public moments, it was a surprise moment in which vice president biden was brought to the state dining room. he was awarded the presidential medal of freedom. the then vice president, with these remarks. vice president biden: i know it came from the president's heart. there's a saying that says, what comes from the heart is the heart. mr. president, you have creeped into our heart. you and your whole family. including mom. and you occupy it. it's an amazing thing that happened. i knew how smart you were. i knew how honorable you were. i knew how decent you were fr

isn't that what obama did? >> yes, quite frankly if you look at the germany, they are off doing a gas deal with the russians at the same time they are asking us to bring troops in to defend them from the russians. the truth is, the last three years, the obama administration is no different. probably increase their defense spending, i think the president has been right to pressure our allies and partners, not only increased defense spending, need to isolate the economy and the technology from the chinese communist party because they are infiltrating your societies. >> laura: general spalding, thank you so much, great to see you as always. it coming up emma from sports, to hollywood, to everything cultural, how will the change get worse, get better? a biden administration versus a trump administration, cancel culture, dinesh d'souza, and raymond arroyo lay out how much worse it could get if joe biden wins in november and don't give up hope on winning the culture war under trump, up next. >> laura: are you really

what did the obama biden administration due to that county in new york? >> westchester county was the guinea pig of sorts for the affirmatively furthering fair housing regulation. now, keep in mind that westchester county is the fourth most diverse county in new york state. around 2016 westchester county had about 40% of its population were black or hispanic. so, this is a very diverse county and yet, a civil rights suit was filed against westchester county claiming not that they had had any housing discrimination, which is what the fair housing act for bids, but claiming instead that they had falsely promised when they receive their hud grant, to affirmatively further fair housing and the lawsuit used this expansive definition of affirmatively furthering fair housing which had nothing to do with actually discriminating and it was never even alleged there was housing discrimination, but rather that the district simply hadn't done enough to create demographic diversity in every part of the district. now, as i said, westchester is highly diverse, but there

clinton obama biden yes. i have big concerns about what we see happening on the streets in united states where to me is a domestic and servicing when you have groups like antiphon and black glass matter and some of the nefarious actions that they're taking the destruction of federal buildings the attack of property and things of that nature and also the policy of defunding police here in our in the state of texas the capital city of austin texas a very far left city council voted to defund the police by $150000000.00 and what you see is an increase of violent crime in that city on i'm not going to out and frequenting anywhere late at night because of the issue about safety and security obviously black eyes matta maybe even anti for who of course in the thirty's in world war 2 for against the fascist would deny they were nefarious spent that i think what i'm getting at here is trump's term the gini coefficient on income and inequality it's as bad the the regression as it was during the obama biden years so wha

this and i didn't like the iraq you know and that's what obama and to don't give kudos of president obama he was rather are reluctant to do what his military advisors told him and the hawks regarding syria he could have done a lot more so he wasn't completely all in but let me just explain to me you are suggesting that we're going to abandon diplomatic negotiations had no manger who ever we're talking about military let me didn't let me be very basic how do we explain to the war and now we're in all of these beasts is all over the world now i know this may not be an american to say they've got to give me we're going to do i do not read about this don't what gives the united states a right to go in and say we're going to tell country who they can speak with we're making deals and saudi arabia we have with our diplomatic schizophrenia is imperceptible to most people how does how do we tell anybody else you deal with this and by the way since we're so worried about the stability of the middle east did you hear peter and you hear a lot this notion of the kompany of cudos it was a wreck in ter

this is obama's cia. this is john brennan. what they heard on that, those intercepts and information that they were getting was serious enough that even they felt it necessary to refer it to the fbi, and that raises a big question, what did jim comey sit on, what did he to? someone's going to ask him. more importantly, you raised the question of chris i wray. how could it be that we're four years from that moment and we're just getting this information now? the answer is chris wray's fbi has slow-walked every piece of evidence of wrongdoing or a mistake that the fb irk made, and it's --fbi made, and it's a shame to the electorate that we're entering the 2020 election, and chris wray hasn't let us seen fully what happened in the 2016 election are. lou: and another way of looking at this regrettably is that it's four years later and the obama administration still has extraordinary influence if not outright power over the permanent bureaucracy, the so-called deep state and is obviously still making use of that influence and power

consider barack obama. if he's a smart man, very gifted nyspeaker appeared too many peoe found him inspiring, it's understandable why. when the fog lifted after obama's eight years in office, what was left? a dying middle-class, a nation more radically divided by race and by income. a population so hostile to their political leaders that they elected donald trump president. by any measure, barack obama left a wake of destruction behind. in the end, one of the relatively few who prospered was barack obama himself. obama and his wife became unimaginably wealthy, legitimately rich with huge estates in different parts of the country. where did barack obama get all that money? no one asks. if we are too busy hating each other. obama stokes that hatred because it helps him. here he is at the democratic convention this summer. >> americans of all races joining together to declare in the face of injustice and brutality at the hands of the state that black lives matter. no more, but no less. to the young people who

that is how we got justice gorsitch, instead of president obama's nominee, merrick garland. talking about the republicans having done that with the last supreme court vacancy, hillary clinton telling me that every possible procederal obstacle must be thrown in the way of the power grab of mitch mcconnell. and expressing there may be enough republicans that cannot stomach the hypocrisy, of moving forward with another trump nominee to the court after what happened in the last presidential election year. here's a way to think of the dre breadth and scope of ruth bader ginsburg's live. she was born a few days after fdr becamepresident for if furs time. she was nominated to a federal court in 1980 by president jimmy carter and nominated to the united states supreme court in 1993 by president bill clinton. she eventually became a pop culture touch stone and phenomenon, notorious rbg. she had a very long life. she was behind many changes after graduating law school. she was rejected for a supreme court clerkship specifically because of gender. she embarked on a pioneering legal car

under president obama and trump. ruth bader ginsburg was a force behind those many changes. she was rejected by the supreme court because of her gender. she embarked for women's legal rights and equality. she became the first female of columbia law school. she founded the women's rights project at the aclu. she successfully convinced that court for the first time to strike down a state law because it discriminated based on gender she once told npr that the words of the 14th amendment, equal protection claus nor shall any state deny to any person the equal. "when ginsburg began her crusade, women were treated differently than men." by the time she donned judicial robes, ginsburg had worked a revolution after that nomination to the supreme court from president clinton, we just heard from fomfo former secretary of state, hillary clinton, she was confirmed to the supreme court in 1993. do you know what the confirmation vote was for her? it was 96-3. we have not done that in a long time she's the second woman confirmed to the court a strong one and a live liberal. in her later ye

i look at that as the supreme court saying the obama administration went outside the bounds. what we did, the cleaner act formulated the ace will wish follows the law and would be upheld by the dc circuit and the supreme court if it goes to the supreme court. as soon as the obama administration issued its rule, it was stayed in every state and over half the states, it didn't take affect either. the lawsuits, replacement for that rule failed in the courts. our rule is the law of the land. what we have done is something i like to joke is unique, we took a hard look at the clean water act, hard look at the supreme court case and we wrote the rule to follow the law, the thin water act and severe court cases. our replacement for that rule is upheld by the supreme court. >> a couple more minutes of questions. i want to remind the audience, they can do it on twitter, hashtag a ei clean air and water or email.alan.epa.org. the clean power plant. i think it is very easy to draw a line to that moment from an earlier moment at the epa, not one of their greatest moments, when the epa los

clinton, just do as well as obama did -- joe will win big. and it's because the truth is, i looked this up, we lost 71,000 people to drug overdose. now, some of them in the cities, some are in the suburbs, some are around the country. this is not a thing to discriminate by ideology or race. we've lost 38,000 people last year, the death by drug overdose is the highest ever, i think. certainly highest in years. death by handgun violence, 38,000. some in cities, some in suburbs, some on the farms. the pain is the same. and it's our job to stitch that back together, turn that pain into purpose whether it's a farmer, god forbid, whose kid is adducted to opioids, or it's a mom in the inner city. it's the same pain. i'm looking for ways to stitch them back together. i don't think we should be at war. >> let's talk about rural america. you mentioned early that willie nelson enjoyed that chapter. ial enjoyed that chapter. i learned a few things. why is it important that we reach out to rural america? >> well, first, it's intrinsicically important p. w

that's barack obama. >> obama! >> joe spent eight years as president obama's trusted right-hand man, working so closely with him that soon even biden couldn't tell where he ended and obama began. >> an o'biden bama democrat. >> his job prepared him for knowing which building the white house is. once joe is inside the white house, he will lead america forward with a bold, progressive agenda. >> joe biden who told his big donors that "nothing will fundamentally change if he's elected." >> americans aren't looking for evolution. >> no, i don't support defunding the police. against medicare for all. totally unrealistic. >> elizabeth warren says she's going to prose a wealth tax. ( laughter ) >> boldish, or something. what matters is it's not insane. and considering the shit storm we're in right now, we'll take it. i haven't been outside in six months. look, here's the thing, joe biden isn't as inspiring as obama, he doesn't have the fearless vision of f.d.r., or the rhetorical gift of john f. kennedy. >> my name is joe

museum, the high watermark of the obamas' multiple visits was twofold. one, they toured the gay head lighthouse at the far end of the , whose original 19th century is a centerpiece in our exhibit. they were kind enough to sign the guestbook, which we promptly put on display. also, president obama's coming to the island was a huge moment for us at the museum because it gave us an opportunity to call attention to the history of martha's vineyard in general but particularly to the town of oak bluffs as a popular vacation resort for african-americans. a place where african-americans so felt they0 or could come and relaxed and feel welcome and escape somewhat from the tensions and the pressures of the wider world, where they could come and feel accepted. and so, president obama and his family, although they did not stay in oak bluffs, the fact that they came to the island gave us an opportunity to tell that story in a new and fresh way and close the circle of the story that began in 1900 and continues to this day. now, i would like to hand it back. director s

saying, quote, i don't think obama is smart. i think he is highly overrated, and i don't think he is a great speaker. trump told woodward he often wanted to refer to obama by his first and middle names barack hussein but he wouldn't do that in his presence so he could be,

that is dennis ross from the obama administration. that is how former obama administration officials successes. this work to have peace pipe historic opportunity that american leadership in diplomacy has made possible. that mr. present on a totally different message, i had hoped, and republicans had hoped that the american people had hoped that the senate would be spending this week finishing up another bipartisan agreement on coronavirus relief. we want to get hundreds of billions of more dollars into the pipeline for kids, for jobs, for healthcare. but unfortunately, senate democrats chose to block it all, our democratic colleagues voted against hundreds of millions of dollars to help americans fight the virus. this was o not even a vote on final passage is a procedural vote to break the filibuster and move forward with something. senate democrats nevertheless filibuster the aide. and then a few short days later, right back to signaling that a democrat joe biden, would abolish the filibuster. and permanently analyze the institution

that's obama's home city. meanwhile for years on this program, we tried hard to shine a light on that very serious crisis.ri we scrolled the names of shooting victims on the screen. we pleaded with both joe and barack and there it ministration to get to work. let's take a trip down memory lane, should we? >> 3,470, we don't hear a peep out of obama. he spoken out in eight years nine times, but if it's a high-profile case, he is front and center. he advances the narrative, no due process, no assumption of a innocence. >> i know i've aged, but the point stays the same. 50 years in the washington swamp, ask yourself what has joe biden ever done to improve american cities? what does he ever do? hwhy did he feel the people of chicago, the thousand shot in the thousands dead? why didn't he fix baltimore after what happened, the uprising in the freddie gray case?ho what b did he do in ferguson, missouri after what happened with michael brown and officer darren wilson, who by the way the doj of obama said was a justif

listen to obama and biden here. watch this. >> when there is a vacancy on the supreme court the president much the united states is to nominate someone. historically this has not been viewed as a question. there's no unwritten law that says that it can only be done on off years. that is not in the constitutional text. >> i would go forward with the confirmmation process as chairman, even a few months before presidential election. elizabeth: okay. nominations in an election year have occurred 29 times in history. here's the thing. if this vote if this election is contested, you can't have a deadlocked supreme court at 4-4, just eight votes. the supreme court may well have to weigh in on a disputed election. you talk about the filibuster, dems have no power to stop the scotus hearings because they abolished the filibuster for scotus in nations in 2013. president only need a simple majority of votes. we have only collins and murkowski peeling off now. what is the prediction president will seat a scotus nominee before t

president obama liked his golf, but he also, as was well-known, like his basketball. the house they stayed in on the north shore of the island featured a half-court basketball court on which he and whoever was around to play with him could shoot a few hoops in between whatever else was going on. famous for their many long bike rides along the island's networks of bike paths. vacations,is earlier he excited a bit of a furor by being pictured not wearing a bicycle helmet as he rode along the shoreline in edgartown. this excited some comment and lead to a white house press release to the effect that prior to the -- that president obama supports the wearing of bicycle helmets, just not necessarily on the vineyard apparently. for us at the martha's vineyard museum, the high water mark of multiple visits was twofold. toward the gay head lighthouse at the far end of the lighthouse, whose original 19th --is one of our exhibits. they were kind enough to sign the guestbook, which we promptly put on display. obama's coming to the island was a huge moment for us at the museum bec

it's one big problem with the obama cafe standards. if you were to get the emissions reductions they called for, you would have to have a 50% electric vehicle fleet by 2025 and that's not going to happen. the only way that auto companies could comply was by cashing in credits unrelated to vehicle miles or paying large fines. the fines were expected to be $1 billion by 2025, which would have been passed on to all of the consumers on the price of a new car. our next question comes from oliver, a writer for "the guardian," who says climate change has been doubled in the areas of wildfire since the 1980's and given the huge fires we are seeing out west, you can as a glowingsmoke health threat. absolutely.r: we have developed an app that you can download called smoke sense that will give updates about where you live and whether or not it is safe to go outside with the particulate matters from the fires. absolutely it's a huge health issue in terms of particulate matter. i should have started with the loss of life from the fires. we are all

, and i compare obama and trump quite a bit. i think it is 2008 when obama won, there was a feeling that ok, he is ushering this new democratic dominance that is going to, you know, last regeneration, and that did not happen, right? i mean, democrats lost the congress, both midterm elections, at the lower level, houses, and really be only when they won again was obama in 2012, and that is because obama was charismatic, unique president who could draw people to the polls that nobody else could. trump is the same way. the people you see at the rallies, they did not vote come i them, and 2018. they will be back this year. but maybe a mike pence or nikki haley and bracing -- embracing his policies, but without their that charisma, and thinking they can draw those voters -- i think they will be mistaken. host: let's go to doug. good morning. caller: good morning. that toon is i feel much of this selection is focused on personality. i am more concerned about the future than i am about the virus and about the economy. ofike to use the

of course because he died in february 2016, that means that barack obama was president. the republicans had control of the senate, but the democratic president held the white house. within one hour of the announcement of justice scalia's passing in february 2016, the republican leader in the senate, the majority leader, senator mcconnell, issued this statement. he said, quote, the american people should have a voice in the selection of their next supreme court justice. therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president. now, in february 2016 there wasn't even a republican nominee for president. there was no democratic nominee either. the presidential campaign hadn't gotten nearly that far. but ten months before the 2016 election, 11 months -- i mean, 10 months before that election was going to happen, before we had nominees of either party, senator mitch mcconnell decided that president obama would not be allowed to perform his constitutional duty and responsibility to replace justice scalia on the supreme court simply because the calendar year wa
