"Faced with a tiny embarrassment, Thomas Friedman has had to take the extreme measure of quoting himself in extenso in an effort to wriggle out of his rapturous endorsement of Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), now suspected of being the perpetrator behind the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, a respected Saudi journalist.
If confirmed, this would make MBS the world heavyweight champion of dictators specialized in the assault on freedom of the press, surpassing both Russia and Malta. Definitive proof may still be lacking, but the conviction — entertained by at least one contributor at Fair Observer — that Khashoggi may not have been murdered inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul has, alas, become less and less tenable."*
A listener calls in to tell the story about how cops were called to his sidewalk chalk protest. In his city, there is an ordinance codifying the use of sidewalk chalk as vandalism. Police arrived in force to intimidate him.

So I got fined 500 a couple of years ago for writing names like Ahmad Arbury and Brianna Taylor with sidewalk chalk on a public sidewalk in my city. They ended up being five cop cars there. I'm really sad that I didn't film this. And yeah I found out that my city has an ordinance where sidewalk chalk is classified as vandalism. And I mean it was just really intimidating having like literally eight police officers standing in like a half-circle. All just like staring at me while I was sitting on the sidewalk.
And you're also writing about police brutality.
I think that's what yeah I guess that's why they were so whatever like personally offended and so I ended up getting this huge packet in the mail like a month later from whatever law firm saying we're the city or whoever the people against Nick Poland that was such a scary thing. And like thank god that I live in like I'm an I mean I'm very fortunate where I live luckily my parents had a friend who was a lawyer. And so I was able to talk to him and he was able to pretty much make me feel like nothing bad was going to happen to me. But I don't know it seems weird like a city ordinance saying sidewalk chalk is essentially illegal. I mean I don't know if there's a case that could be made that that's somehow unconstitutional.

I can hear the words coming out of Sean Hannity's mouth right now: I'm not watching this but of course, there's no cross-examination, anyways you know we've got bathrooms with the trans women and that's basically the line the navy watched a video about pronouns rights. Exactly, that is the that that will be it we're not hearing both sides Sam, of course, it's because one side decided to boycott them and not go but still, that invalidates the entire proceedings it does there's no cross-examination, anyone's allowed. I watch enough law and order to know that if you don't have the cross-examination you know there's no jurisprudence and so they're taking over exactly…

One of the simplest and most effective ways to fight climate change isn't buying an electric vehicle or putting solar panels on your roof. It's taxing the rich.

When you talk about outsmarting climate change it's hilarious to me that the smartest solution is the simplest one that we keep returning to. And what you what outsmarting climate change really means is how can we burden regular people more with by avoiding through our own cowardice and inability to actually stand up to powerful people targeting the companies the production of the of oil and of what's causing the worst of climate change. Yeah, I came up when I was writing this book I came up with a little pithy slogan that we should not tax molecules we should tax the rich. Which is it's insane because the idea of a carbon tax carbon is this neutral stuff that working-class people use. you and I use it. Rich people use it. and this idea that it's causing climate change we're going to tax this neutral stuff it can easily be turned into something that's going to be a tax on everyone right? And no one likes that. So you know traditionally when the left was powerful the main way the left got stuff done is through re mass redistribution of wealth and that's through taxing the rich. and so we need to we need a massive and taxing of the rich and by the way over the last 40 years nothing but tax cuts for the rich. You know from Reagan through w through Trump. Like that's just what they've been doing. And so we could and that even you know like if we don't even want to I mean obviously I'm all on board for nationalizing the energy sector. I think that's something ultimately we have to do. but if we could just make our tax regime way more progressive and generate a huge amount of revenue to actually invest in remaking our energy system and remaking our infrastructure. like that kind of big let's say like new deal style sort of public goods public investment regime and you know in the new deal they tax the rich at these incredible levels too. That's what we need. and focusing on the molecules sort of distracts us from this class struggle that we're facing. and what we need to do to solve it.

"They are: Chuka Umunna, Luciana Berger, Chris Leslie, Angela Smith, Mike Gapes, Gavin Shuker and Ann Coffey.
Ms Berger said Labour had become institutionally anti-Semitic and she was "embarrassed and ashamed" to stay.
Mr Corbyn said he was "disappointed" the MPs had felt unable to continue working for the policies that "inspired millions" at the 2017 election.
Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell said the "honourable thing for them to do" would be to stand down as MPs and seek to return to Parliament in by-elections."*

Eric Bolling appears on @Newsmax TV to alert his audience to the terrible reality that Big Bird and Big Bird's Grandma talked about going to get vaccinated against Covid 19. Bolling then pronounces that he told everyone that "Sesame Street" "are a bunch of Communists." The Majority Report crew discusses the progressive history of "Sesame Street," and the Right's history of trying to cancel an educational children's puppet show.

Sam Seder: Since we're also talking about revisionist history and whatnot and how embedded these reactions are, here's Eric Bolling. He's on Newsmax; we have a clip of Fox and Friends doing the same thing, too. But know they all got the message. You can see it doesn't... We don't need to see every one of the right-wingers who are going off on Big Bird promoting the vaccine to kids. Let's be clear: There is no kid in America between the ages of 5 and 11 who is now eligible for the vaccination who's going to go and get this on his own or her own. They're not going to get it on their own. They cannot get it on their own. It is meant to — and there's no kid between the ages of 5 and 11 who are going to decide, distinct from their parents, that they want the vaccine, that also won't happen. This is not like, "Mom, Dad, will you guys get me a Power Ranger for Hanukkah this year?" It is meant to make the kids feel less anxious about the idea of getting a shot and to also feel less anxious about catching Covid. Because the dynamic that gets lost in all of this, and this is just as common if not more common than any reaction that i've seen amongst kids, and granted you know the the kids I see are their parents are not talking about the vaccine being the devil's spawn, but let's be clear, 80 percent of the country has gotten vaccinated. The overwhelming number of parents on polls and whatnot are in favor of the masking policies that they've seen from schools, or in favor of of vaccine mandates. Overwhelming numbers.

Eric Bolling: Speaking of Covid, there was a ton of pushback to the Biden mandates over the weekend. Big Bird is now hawking the jab for five-year-olds on
