and so he knew something from jimmy carter. he opens the envelope and there carter says big you ever know when to stop? now he was proud of this note. he thought it was like signified the nature of his access to the president. but you know, this relationship work carter down. by the third year of the presidency during the hostage crisis, big was beginning to win the argument. he was the one who is constantly urging cards respond to the crisis he was the one who persuaded carter in the end reluctantly to give a green light to the helicopter rescue mission. which turned out to be a disaster. i think the preordained to be a disaster could never have succeeded. he was in favor of force and it is ironic it is over this you, he finally resigned leaving him standing on the field. this is i think one of the tragedies of the carter foreign policy apparatus. >> was there an october surprise in 1980? we note from the archives it looks like there is an october surprise in 1968 involving the nixon administration d-link negotiations and viet

you can go back to jimmy carter with the hostages. we all thought that was a great embarrassment, and we were pulled out of that by ronald reagan. this is many, many times worse. and you are dealing with thousands and thousands of americans and others that are stranded and very dangerously really stranded in afghanistan. so it's something that you can't even believe that a thing like this -- i looked at that big monster cargo plane yesterday with people grabbing the side and trying to get flown out of gath bunt afghanistan because of their incredible fear and they're blowing off of the plane from 2,000 feet up in the air, nobody has ever seen anything like that. that blows the helicopters in vietnam away. that is not even a contest. it has been the most humiliating period of time that i've ever seen. we had a great deal and worked on a very hard. mike pompeo, brilliant guy, and many others worked on it endlessly. meetings with the taliban, of course you have to meet with the taliban. they are the ones who are negotiating with. i spoke

carter. to every enemy of america, they have projected weakness. on russia, joe biden has given vladimir putin what he wanted most, a multibillion dollar pipeline to let him extort europe. on china, the biden administration has been projecting weakness over and over and over again, including kowtowing to china and reversing the state department policy on taiwan, prohibiting taiwan from displaying their flag or wearing military uniforms on u.s. government property. kowtowing to the communist party in china. on iran, the biden administration has said as their top foreign policy objective is sending billions of dollars to the ayatollah even as he's the leading state sponsor of terrorism in the world and chants death to america and on hamas, the biden administration has sent hundreds of millions of dollars to the palestinian authority, much of which has found its way to hamas and has been materialized in rockets raining down on israel. is something bad going to happen? yes. because when you show

see jimmy carter as anything but evangelical by 79. independent oil men were among those who led the fight for social conservatism. with jake howard pew now deceased, it was up to other bank rollers to boost the cause. the junior hunt endorsed bill bright's campus crusade for christ which proposed a one billion venture to proselytize youth and sponsor francis schaffer, who's 1979 manifesto sparked evangelicals antiabortion crusade. but not much triggered hunt and his rage more than carter's energy politics. the president support of e. r. a. and abortion rights infuriated them. but carter's crisis of confidence speech was equally damning in their eyes. in this dour, [inaudible] carter bemoan's conservation. the attack on oil made in more listing terms was, in their minds, the final straw. over the course of the next year, republican candidate ronald reagan inflamed their anger with his hard driving quest for the presidency. running on the slogan, let's make america great again. we can won the hearts and minds of the american oil patch.

i was thinking about jimmy carter and jimmy carter benefited from the fact that he could only give his malays speech once . he didn't have to go out and face the press. he wasn't 24 hour news cycle. we're watching the bible presidency, deteriorate. it for our eyes. this president is not handling this well and everyone knows in america and the people in the rest of the world know it. so it's actually a very dangerous time. i hope the present is careful and slow and methodical. but right now what we're portraying is weakness. and uncertainty and a sense of like i said, deterioration right every day. so it's, i don't want to gloat on it is politically disastrous to democrats when an election . you know, right now gavin newsome will lose and, and terry mcauliffe will lose. who cares? right now, i'm worried that the rest of the world is seeing a chance to take advantage of america. that's what we have to worry about. well, and i think we can alter the republican dual credit. this has been a disaster of leadership for 20 years. plus, this is not just on one president's hand. that being said

jimmy carter would feel the effects of that ambition. to be sure as historians have emphasized throughout, carter support of equal right amendment independents led the fight for social conservatism. it was up to wildcatters to bankroll the cause. the junior hunt endorsed the campus crusade for christ to propose $1 billion to sponsor shaver who 1979 manifesto whatever happened to human race sparked the anti abortion crusade. not much triggered hunt's rage more than carteres politics. it -- carter's crisis of confidence speech was equally damming in their eyes. carter bemoaned the nation's high energy consumption and lack of conservation. the attack on oil was in their minded final straw. over the course of the next year republican canadian ronald reagan inflamed their anger, running on the slogan, let's make america great again. he won the hearts and minds of the american oil patch. quote we must remove government obstacles to energy production. it is no program to say use less energy. mal a's had no place in reagan's vocab. he travelled

jimmy carter would feel the effects of that ambition. to be sure and as historians have emphasized throughout social politics looms large here as well. carter's support of equal rights amendment and women's rights all wrangled evangelicals who by 1979 had come to see jimmy carter as anything but evangelical. independent oilmen were among those who led the fight for social conservatism. with j. howard pugh deceased it was up to other wildcatters to bankroll the cause. the junior hunt endorsed the campus crusade for christ which proposed a 1 billion venture and sponsored francis shaffer whose manifesto sparked the anti-abortion crusade. not much triggered rage more than carter's energy politics. the president's support of e.r.a. and abortion rights infuriated them. carter bemoaned the lack of conservation. the attack on oil made in moralistic terms was, in their mind, the final straw. over the course of the next year ronald reagan inflamed their anger running on the slogan let's make america great again, he won the hearts and mind of the a

i remember with jimmy carter, and the good thing for jimmy is to me is looking like a much better president right now because you always have to have comparisons. but i remember with jimmy carter imand big inflation the crime wt to 21% and the country came to a halt. well first of all i will tell you we better get our act together, that's all that we can say. you look at the economy and inflation in so many other things, and more, the biggest drilling site in the world, i got it open. ronald reagan couldn't do it, they've been trying for 60 or 70 years and i got it done. it was just terminated, the biggest site in the world. probably bigger than saudi arabia felt like terms of oil. i got it done and they were just terminating. the people of alaska were very upset. but here is the greatest thing. we had energy independence and nowde we don't. >> sean: instead of baking opec, governor abbott, we are praying for him tonight, i know he announced he had covid today and another breakthrough case. but why don't we just go back to doing what was working for you? instead of allowing millions of peop

the only debate they had in that 1980 campaign was one debate and he just destroyed jimmy carter in that debate and then of course something that will never be done in american politics again, he asked somebody, me, who had been two campaigned against him, to be his white house chief of staff. everybody was shocked. nobody was more shocked than i was, but what a beautiful human being and i was privileged to return for four years. >> getting to your statement of patriotism for my final question for this program, i interspersed questions from the audience, many of these came from the audience, but somebody said if james baker sat down with his grandchildren today you recommend a career in public service and or politics? >> absolutely without any question. and remember this and for your students out there, politics can -- it's not beanbag and i've got the stars -- the scars to show it but politics is the way under our democratic you get the right to practice policy. lyndon johnson said you can't be a statesman and so you've been elected and it is true. politics is the way we get to practice

but joe biden and his policies that he's putting in place, making jimmy carter look kind of good. and i never thought i would say that. but you think about where we were, the work that we did, the americans that we put to work, whether it was building pipelines, good union jobs, building pipelines all across the country, stopping that keystone pipeline out of canada. and then allowing the russians to finish -- it just absolutely makes no sense. the country that will hold the year hold the european union hostage with energy just got the green light. it makes you kind of question, you know, what are on those computers that biden's son lost. >> it's interesting but we have an investigation in her neck segment about hunter biden's computers. my question is the obvious answer is put the keystone pipeline up, get it back up and running. continue drilling. governor abbott said, come back to texas, let us drill again and will produce oil faster than you can use it. why don't we go for the obvious answer. why would we big countries and kiss their ass when we don't need their oil, we've got

meghan mccain slammed biden jimmy carter on acid. i wonder about those comparisons to jimmy carter. as humans when something happens you want to look back and what do we know in history that can inform us today? how do you look at that? >> i'm not sure i see a comparison to jimmy carter except that it's a president who is under fire for having made some misjudgments. the situation with the hostages in tehran in 1979 is no way equivalent to the taliban sweeping over afghanistan taking over the country in 11 days as general milley said. it was a terrible failure of planning, though, that -- the president keeps talking about well, we're getting this under control. you wonder what he is going to say today at 1:00 that will reassure people? clearly the situation will be better. we don't have hundreds of people on the runway, some of them deciding it makes more sense to cling to the outside of a jet airplane on it does to live inside afghanistan under the taliban. but when you've got 2,000 people going out and we have the capacity to get somewhere between 5,000 and 9,000 people out, bette

that same year in 1979 jimmy carter on july 3 had a fighting offering the cia in afghanistan. in an attempt to provoke the soviets into invading that country in the words of the carter administration the purpose of this was to give the soviets their own vietnam a hopeless long term no-win war that breaks the bank to destabilize the country. we did that. through the reagan years this policy continued on include not just back in the afghan tens of thousands of what were called the arab afghans. the army not just arabs but muslims from the philippines, the united states, especially the middle east who all traveled to afghanistan to help fight against the soviet union. then went america permanently occupied saudi arabia and preparation for iraq or one and then permanently throughout the 1990s and the rest of the 20th century and continued to bomb iraq from those in saudi arabia, that is what caused osama bin laden and their group to turn against their former patrons, the united states of america. it was first and for monthly basis in salary while used to bomb iraq in the 1990s pre

we have been since 1979 under jimmy carter. he is the first one, who started to get them infield rifles -- them enfield rifles to destroy the soviet union. it backfired on us. yes, it got the soviet union out of afghanistan. then they threw that on us. without the soviet -- without the soviet union, you had no nazi hungary, no fascist poland, but now they have to be taken care of by the u.s. as far as afghanistan, we never should have been there. i said back then, once the soviet union is out of afghanistan, radical islamists are never going to stop. it is the dream child of the military-industrial complex, another neverendum war. -- another never ending war. when will we learn? host: ron's thoughts. let's listen to the president last month when he delivered thoughts on the decision to withdraw from afghanistan and talked about the overall achievements of the war effort. listen to what he had to say. [video clip] >> i said in april the u.s. did what we wanted to do in afghanistan, to get the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11 a

gerald ford, jimmy carter, so you had soldiers, gi's in 1980 who were actually on food stamps. we were flying airplanes that were 50 year's old. meanwhile soviets with new technology with bomber which was super sonic and deadly. reagan, that was his commitment because he knew if he can have a stronger defense, everything else is academic. so this was the deficit that was created but it was -- if freeing millions of people that had been in prison in poland or in other, you know, third-world countries and ultimately the soviet and russia itself, then there was -- free the millions of people who had been prisoned behind the iron curtain. >> you talk about his true ideology as being more pragmatic than being credit for? >> yes. >> is that going to hurt his legacy among conservatives? >> i don't think so. i think i wills legacy is pretty well cemented among conservatives, is that his library in simi valley in california is still the most visited presidential library in all america. some people go to reagan library which is by the way -- it's hard to get. semi valley is often being p

and he just destroyed jimmy carter in that debate. and and then of course did something that i don't think will ever be done in american politics again. he asked somebody me who had run two campaigns against him to be as white house chief of staff. everybody was shot. nobody was more shocked than i was. but what a beautiful human being i was privileged to serve for four years. getting back to your magnificent statement of patriotism for my final question for this program secretary baker and i've intersed some questions from our audience in the last few just so you'll know that many of these came from the audience. but somebody said if james baker sat down with his grandchildren today. would you recommend a career in public service and/or politics? absolutely without any question and and remember this and for your students out there. politics can be a grubby business politics ain't being back and i've got the scars to show for. but politics is the way under our democratic system that you get the right to practice policy as the lyndon j

some are comparing him to jimmy carter. william mcgurn writing in "the wall street journal" "in the history books the stake of our second saigon will hang over mr. biden's legacy but with more than three years left in his presidency, the idea that we may have another jimmy carter at the helm may be even scarier." especially if that is the reit in beijing, moscow, and tehran." even cnn noticing president biden is facing a lot of questions. economy under 50%. tanked in his covid numbers. in afghanistan he has gone from 58 to just 34% approval. >> miranda: it shows you you can fool all the people all of the time. a lot of people have been fooled for a long time about joe biden. he his image has been -- on foreign policy, an old hand, steady, all that is on the window when you see what he's really like. in great britain, you're seeing headlights questioning his cognitive capability, especially since there was that footage of him seemingly falling asleep during a meeting with the israeli prime minister. there just is feeling tha

maybe i should have said larry elder has supported all republicans since jimmy carter. look, i'm not beyond political transformation myself. from 1980 through 2008 i voted exclusively for republicans running for president, then became an independent after voting for barack obama. i'm not critical of these men for changing their positions, if they are changing their positions, because i think change is natural and shows personal growth. the question is whether it's change or opportunism indicative of inauthenticity, and on that the voters will soon decide. >>> still to come, more of your best and worst tweets and facebook comments. and we'll give you the final result, cannot wait to see this. the survey question right now at smerconish.com. should president biden now reverse, withdraw from afghanistan? ♪all by yourself.♪ you look a little lost. i can't find my hotel. oh. oh! ♪ this is not normal. no. ♪ so? ♪ right? go with us and find millions of flexible options, all in our app. expedia. it matters who you travel with. what can i du with less asthma? with dupi

shirley i've heard rumors and suspicions that when president reagan was running for office jimmy carter had representatives talking to the iranian leaders and did not release the hostages because it would aid him when election time came around and i wondered if that was true and if you could shed some light on that. just go thank you. a good question. there is no evidence. there've been several books and wants his last name was summed up in the book. he met with george bush and representatives of the ayatollah to keep the hostages in iran during the 1980 campaign. nothing could be further from the f truth. george bush didn't -- he was in the united states the whole time and no representative reagan or anybody from the military or the cia said that. these are conspiracy theories made up and it's entirely untrue. i will tell you i interviewed bruce langdon [inaudible] he said the reason we were released are ronald reagan was a reins were terrified of reagan. they were terrified that reagan would take military action decisive military action. and he released the hostages on the e.. it was

look, inflation along with foreign policy took down jimmy carter. that combination along with skyrocketing crime. revolt by parents against an extremist educational system or at least increasingly extremist will drown democrats in a red tsunami in 2022 or possibly the president or whoever the democratic nominee is in 2024. just look at the numbers and i will leave it here. 83% of americans are worried about long-term inflation. that's a fox news poll. a "new york times" poll has a similar finding. and this biden budget is passed, the press will call it a huge victory. i think, just like president obama and his shovel ready stimulus that passed in his first year, and they ultimately be a net negative because, in this case, outside of inflation, americans won't see or feel the impact of this marv spending on actual infrastructure for years. that's according to the wors. so, it's a big calculation. but i don't think it's a big win that democrats are going to portray it to be or the press. i think this is going to be real trouble. because democrats now

of course, jimmy carter did win the election of 1976 by a small margin, and the pardon of richard nixon was certainly a factor. one of the key factors that caused ford to lose. one of the interesting things to think about is why didn't ford's communications people get the story out there better? all of the issues that were revealed from benton becker, ford still had no inner circle of his own, and he was still operating with the nixon people of his own, and the key part, and you were not alive at the time, but the ford secretary resigned in protest. that kind of overtook the news, and overshadowed everything else. obviously no internet or cable news, so events fwal lopped a wave from there. and no way to put the pieces back together to explain the story. my own is the studying of this suggests that ford and his people were walking on egg shells. and also, talking about the potential pardon, there were also potential state crimes in california in the queue there. they could not push for too much of an addition or nixon could be incriminating himself. so really the first time that ford fe

carter's approval rating was his 1st year in office. and joe biden isn't even 8 months through it yet. so talk about popularity. you know, gina is right there, this guy who put and brings 30 people to rally, as opposed to president trump, who's drawing 1400000 viewers on other networks that actually do choose to eric and look at david's. the one dealing an alternative fact here donald trump was thrown off of twitter and he was also suspended from facebook. i think through the 2020 to mid term. which if you ever had any, any doubt as to what facebook's motives are. the fact that they chose the 2020 to mid term suspension date is pretty, pretty cheesy. if he asked me, gina that the same question to you about the mechanics and social media twitter is important news. maxie, i only heard about news max because of trump. ok, and i don't watch it. ok. and if you look at its ratings, it's really, really low right now. ok, so i mean facebook, twitter, these are the important ones that people use on an everyday basis. and if you listening to a ge
