LOOKING INTO PAST HISTORCIAL EVENTS REGARDING OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH RUSSIA & SOVIET UNION POLICY...
President Ronald Reagan at Brandenburg Gate in West Berlin, Germany, June 12, 1987 asked a favor of Gorbachev in the name classical liberalism...
With the United States' failures in Vietnam and their gains in Africa, the Soviet Union of the 1970s were riding a crest of optimism as they invaded Afghanistan. To halt this momentum the US began supplying the Mujahideen who were resisting Soviet occupation with arms.
One thing many wouldn't have expected in the Cold War was that the USSR asked to join NATO which seems a bit irregular, and so obviously it raised the question: WHY??
Free-Thinkers like myself also ask the question why a Ukraine annexation into NATO is such an inflammatory idea that Russian President, Vladmir Putin believes might jeopardize Russian National Security interests...

TOMMY NATION POLITICS TUESDAY STREAM: "Principles, Sources, & Curators..."
Curation is commonly conveyed, with proper selection and presentations of facts around a central theme or motif, such as Politics or Entertainment.
Lately, with the uptick of censorship and cancel culture, there is a growing academic interest in what underlies the shifting discourses and practices, pertaining to news gathering. With the overt propaganda and fake news spin dominating the narrative, progressive freethinkers such as myself question whether fundamental tasks have become skewed or altered; thusly, leading to the social deterioration of such important matters, in the terms of consumption. In the late 1900’s these common - which in the past Also core and established institutions ethics of traditional journalism have altogether Many are asking what do these changes CONVEY OR SYMBOLIZE –

This LIVESTREAM locates an exploration of the curatorial turn in journalism studies since 2010 within the shifting meanings of curation from antiquity to the digital age. It argues that the industry is facing a Foucauldian moment where the changing political economy of news and the proliferation of user-generated content on social media have disrupted the monopolies traditional news media held over the circulation of knowledge of current affairs and the power this gave them to shape public debate…

Eric Lander, the top White House scientist who recently resigned amid accusations of workplace bullying, held on to large quantities of stock in COVID-19 vaccine-maker BioNTech while promoting vaccinations without disclosing his stake.
Lander had 90 days from his confirmation in May 2021 to divest his stocks, and, while he unloaded the bulk of them in June, he waited to sell the BioNTech shares, worth $500,000 to $1 million, until Aug. 5, according to Politico. BioNTech, with partner company Pfizer, developed the first authorized vaccine against COVID-19. By the time Lander sold off the remaining BioNTech shares, they were priced at $404.92 a share, an increase of more than $50 from two days prior…

TOMMY NATION POLITICS: "Whoopsie Doopsie..."
Whoopi Goldberg was suspended from ABC’s “The View” Tuesday evening after she claimed the Holocaust was “not about race.”
“Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for her wrong and hurtful comments,” ABC News president Kim Godwin tweeted.
“While Whoopi has apologized, I’ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments.”
Goldberg, 66, claimed Nazis and Jews were both white on Monday’s program, and repeated the statement on “The Late Show With Steven Colbert” that evening. She walked back the remarks on Twitter later that night amid widespread outrage.
“As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League shared, ‘The Holocaust was about the Nazi’s systematic annihilation of the Jewish people — who they deemed to be an inferior race.’ I stand corrected,” she wrote.

TOMMY NATION POLITICS SPECIAL GUEST
CO-HOST: JB SCHAEFER
J.B. Schaefer is the author of the fictional dystopian Banned and Cancelled Series, where more information can be found on my website www.BannedAndCancelled.com.
In the books he wrote, Schaefer created an alternate world that dives into internal struggles of characters who are facing a shattered world where they have the choice to assimilate or become one of the countless individuals finding themselves Banned and Cancelled...
The first book starts out with "The Party" where after The War of The Nations has every intention of creating 'a perfect world' yet the decisions it makes leads this new world into a dystopia that could become a reality. The story continues in volume two having 'The Party' erase history to control the narrative leading to a plethora of additional conflicts. If you love history, politics and social behavior; the Banned And Cancelled Series is a thrilling suspenseful story you will want to read. One of my latest interviews can be found on: http://www.990wob.com/.../the-rotunda-banned-and-cancelled

TOMMY NATION POLITICS LIVESTREAM: "A Rotating Villain..."
A “Circular Fallacy,” is a kind of presumptuous argument, where it only appears to be an argument. It’s just restating one’s assumptions in a way that looks like an argument. You can recognize a circular argument when the conclusion also appears as one of the premises in the argument…
One Circular Fantastical Fallacy, made popular by the manufacturing consent propaganda narrative of mass mainstream state-sanctioned media, is the “rotating villain…”
In American democracy, when the majority party has enough votes to pass populist legislation, party leaders designate a scapegoat who will refuse to vote with the party thereby killing the legislation. The opposition is otherwise inexplicable and typically comes from someone who is safe or not up for re-election. This allows for maximum diffusion of responsibility.

TOMMY NATION TUEDSAY LIVESTREAM FIRESIDE CHAT
In his first term in office, Franklin Roosevelt helped pull the nation out of the Great Depression with his landmark programs. In November 1936, every state except Maine and Vermont voted enthusiastically for his reelection. But then the political winds shifted. Not only did the Supreme Court block some of his transformational experiments, but he also faced serious opposition within his own party. Conservative Democrats such as Senators Walter George of Georgia and Millard Tydings of Maryland allied themselves with Republicans to vote down New Deal bills.

TOMMY NATION POLITICS TUESDAY LIVESTREAM PROLOGUE: "Summit of Democarcy..."
President Joe Biden is struggling in the minds of the American public. While his approval rating is down on a slew of issues, his difficulties are perhaps most noticeable on the economy.
Biden now sports the lowest net economic rating of any president at this point through their first term since at least Jimmy Carter in 1977.
In the latest CNN/SSRS poll, Biden comes in with a 44% approval rating to 55% disapproval rating among registered voters on his economic performance. This makes for a -9 point net approval rating. The average of all polls taken in December is quite similar with Biden at -13 points on the economy.
To put that in perspective, the average president at this point in the last 44 years (since we have been polling on the topic) had a net economic approval rating of +5 points. That means Biden's is 18 points worse than the average.

"The Big Club...."
Democrats are using the so-called budget reconciliation process to pass the social spending bill, which allows them to sidestep a filibuster and pass the legislation along party lines within strict constraints.
One Democratic senator, speaking candidly on condition of anonymity, said that the best-case scenario would be starting floor debate next week: “It’s possible you could get it done by the 23rd. But that assumes everything goes smoothly.”
On Tuesday afternoon, Schumer declined to guarantee a vote this month — after repeatedly saying he hoped to see one by Christmas — or even to say whether he believed Manchin wants to vote for the spending bill. The Democratic leader referred only to ongoing talks with Biden and the work the party’s doing behind the scenes to ready the bill for potential floor action.
As for voting rights, Schumer said: “There’s a strong belief in the Senate that we can restore the Senate and at the same time deal with voting rights, and that’s what we’re aiming to do.”
Both the elections and the social spending bill can't stay on pause for long without consequences. Many Democrats are pushing for the safety net legislation to pass before Democrats' boosted child tax credit expires at the end of the year.
And some Democrats argue that a ballot-access bill needs to pass before states finalize their maps for the 2022 election cycle. For these Democrats, including the up-for-reelection Warnock, discussions on weakening the filibuster to pass an elections bill need to get jumpstarted to set up action for early next year.
“We want both of them, but voting rights has more of a time issue because there are states already developing their district mapping,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). “If we don’t move quickly it could be too late.”

TOMMY NATION POLITICS: "Neoliberalism & the Media..."
How would a person describe the time in which we live? Typically, this era in human development is referred to as a time of globalization. However, without the communications technology that came about in the 1990s, globalization on this magnitude would have been impossible. The rhetoric, according to author Robert McChesney in his article “Global Media, Neoliberalism, and Imperialism”, is that all people need to do is “sit back, shut up, and shop…”. McChesney goes on to explain that there exists a superior term to describe the trends we have observed over the past decades and that title is “Neoliberalism”.
Neoliberalism is a set of national and international policies that requires corporate and business domination of all social affairs and little societal opposition. According to McChesney, “Governments are to remain large so as to better serve corporate interests, while minimizing any activities that might undermine the rule of business and the wealthy.”
What the author goes on to describe as the centerpiece of Neoliberal policies is the “…call for commercial media and communication markets to be deregulated.” Before the 1990’s, national media systems were typically domestically owned stations. But today,the global media market is dominated by only 7 multinational corporations: Disney, AOL-Time Warner, Sony, News Corporation, Viacom, Vivendi, and Bertelsmann. What McChesney tries to indicate is that none of these companies existed in their current form fifteen years ago. Furthermore, on several occasions, national media deregulation has preceded more general market deregulations, such as in the case of the creation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the World Trade Organization (WTO).
Over the course of my own research, I will track how the media has been used to support specific neoliberal practices, whether through media deregulation leading to broader market deregulation, or through social advocacy of neoliberal policies.
