  1. David, you are like Ari Melber. Both of you power-speak the truth to the world. In Ari’s show Michael Beschloss gives us a chilling assessment of former president Trump whom has clearly lost all credibility and I would go one step further and say he needs psychological testing by professionals in the field of mental health. In roughly paraphrasing Mr Beschloss I think it's good for people in America to read Mr Beschloss' words, because as an overseas viewer I actually had to write them down because they were not only shocking to us, but they show that former president Donald J. Trump has become someone who would accept someone else being hurt or harmed or worse just because they were working against him in the legal sector. Can anyone imagine reaching the highest office in America and stooping so low as to incite violence against a political opponent or law enforcement professional? Michael goes on to say: Never before have we had a president or an ex-president or a presidential candidate inciting violence and almost explicitly advocating the assassination of prosecutors and others who get in his way which could lead to the downfall of our rule of law. This is a former president who is in legal danger and making an explicit threat intended to intimidate prosecutors and others across the land, and unbelievably the leaders of the Republican party have not said a word against this. Trump is using de-humanization in calling Prosecutor Bragg an animal, he is using antisemitism alleging that George Soros backed the prosecutor investigating him. This is no longer presidential history. To understand this, you have to look at the history of violence and terrorism in America. You have to look at the confederate vigilantes and the Ku Klux Klan which advocated lynchings and Father Coglin in the 1930s who went on the radio and gave rallies and people went out and beat up Jewish students in the streets. It can be compared to the 1960s, when President Kennedy went to Texas in the wake of radical white leaders who were outwardly championing his assassination and the assassination of civil rights leaders. What we’ve seen from Donald Trump with these threats of violence is a lot closer to that history of violence and terrorism in America than anything Beschloss has seen in the history of the presidency. David, Main street America needs to hear this excellent vocast from Ari Melber interviewing Michael Beschloss.

  2. Dear Mr Pakman and Dr Frank, As someone who watches Mr Pakman from time to time, I can’t help but think that this might be one of his most important interviews. Dr Frank is someone that should be interviewed from Fox News to the mainstream media. We have heard other evaluations, but Dr Frank’s assessment of President Trump’s mental health leaves no room for doubt that something very serious is going on. What is striking in what Dr Frank says is that even he is surprised no one else than Mr Pakman is picking up on the symptoms. President Trump needs help!

  3. David, this must be one of the most mind blowing moments of your life along with a good portion of your fellow countrymen and women. What the former prosecutor Mark Pomerantz fears is if someone tries to bring down Trump their career path will encounter anomalies to say the least. We have to realize that the hype around charging a former president is no different than the hype around how tremendous the Russian military was supposed to be. Until now, we all feared the formidable force from Russia. They always came off as gruff, battle-hardened warriors who could wipe out anyone in their path. Countries surrenedered land over to them when ever the Russians wanted a new prize. We now see that Russian soldiers have gone soft; they have no will to fight because for decades they have just had to show up at a possible coflict and the opposing forces would cower and surrender before a bullet was fired. That's why they have outdated food supplies etc. The Ukraine war shows how they (the Russians) had to face an enemy who called their bluff this time because of a brave president and how they have been acting like sheep being led to slaughter because they have lost the will to fight. You can't tell soldiers to get hyped up for battle and not train them to fight like an army and expect positive results. Russia has suffered a humiliating defeat in front of a stunned world. As for Trump; Americans must unite and insist that Trump goes to trial. David; make it a part of every vocast you make to rally people round the flag and get Donald J. Trump in a court of law to face charges. You can help get Trump prosecuted

  4. Dear Mr Pakman, There will be medals given out to TV journalists who weathered the Trump Administration and God willing you should receive the first one they give out if you make it to the other side of the most insane display of poor governing probably in any country of the world. Thanks again for pointing out why we on the other side of the world cannot fathom why he’s still in office. We have to understand that Trump is not faking it; this is him for real; he is not making it up although the stuff he says sure goes that route. This is the real deal and he got himself ‘electoral colleged’ into the highest office of the land. I am sure the virus will be renamed after him when he has been called back to his maker. Keep working hard and never let it get to your head that your getting so good at what you do. It's easy to criticize; but it is sad to see how much America and the world needs someone who talks government and makes sense and is a leader in The White House. Be well. Peace.

  5. David, as someone reporting the news going on in your country, what you have just said in 24 seconds must be some of the most difficult words you have ever had to utter. Across the world from you they are saying the 4th wave is the worst. What on Earth is going on?

  6. Dear Mr Pakman, It’s good to see you haven’t been taken out by the virus. In reading about a 31 year old woman’s report in the daily newspaper in the European town I live in, she described how horrifying it was to feel like she had broken glass in her lungs during the long ordeal. She could barely breathe. It makes me aware of how glad I am so far to have avoided this terrible illness. We have to remind ourselves that this illness is nowhere near flu symptoms. Some people have permanent lung damage coming off the ventilators. One thing President Trump is doing in a very irresponsible way is to blame China and accuse China of manufacturing the virus. He is shooting himself in the foot and bringing your country to the brink of disaster with his tweets. My main point though was to ask you this question. Isn’t President Trump someone who could be described as a text book case of a sociopath? Your father is a therapist if I remember correctly, could you tell us his opinion?

  7. David, in all due respect to you as a gifted, talented and television journalist with an easy to listen to radio voice, DeSantis may have hit a nerve saying the Cartel gangsters would be stopped dead-cold at the border, because your country is undergoing a fentanyl epidemic. If that news is right, you have to understand ordinary people want accountability. Let's be real though: today in the part of the world where we live, in Italy at Lampedusa, the authorities said that they can no longer contain the influx of refugees. We have had our neighborhoods change overnight where we live and in London, England which had 73% of people living in London in the early 70s, British people, it is now down to 37%. 1/3 of the people in the UK's capital city are British, 2/3rds are foreigners. Some say it is a sign of the times, but we should not be the victims of migrants coming into our countries any more than they should be scapegoats. What needs to be done is to have a mortarium for our countries to get back to normal. We need to be given the time to absorb the soaring number of refugees and asylum seekers, but how we do that is the real question.

  8. You in America must know that this is a tipping point in your former President's legal battles and that you should all prepare for something tragic. As an overseas viewer all I can say is that David Pakman is one of the best vocast (videocast) news presenters as well as someone who asks powerful quality questions and gives inciteful comments and always top-grade content.
    8
  9. Always believe in your intuition Mr Pakman, because for the many times I’ve tuned in to your channel, I have found you consistent in one thing: telling things as they really are. You don’t spin and you never try to denigrate anyone. Jordan Peterson’s defense is that there is nothing to back up his claims as far as I know, so he gets a pass in that way. Medical errors are responsible for on average 100 people’s lives every year in the city I live in on the other side of the world from you. So a lot of people are getting saved from that point of view. Keep up the good work and realize that you cannot change anyone’s opinion who is in an emotional state. The people attacking you are coming after you because it’s the only thing that they can do to stay true to what they have decided is their truth.

  10. This is where doing what you do David---in presenting the news---is something that must be hard to deal with. I mean, where does this story go in your brain when or if a parent is charged with negligence about having a loaded gun lying around the house and you're left with the visuals, the blood and guts etc.? This is something I think you should be aware of and maybe have a special session with a psychologist to unload to just to make sure you are not getting powder-burns on your own sense of self. You're going to be covering a lot of these kinds of stories and maybe it's time to have a way to download your anger and frustration to a professional person BEFORE you start taking it out on your own family. You are a parent now and if you see yourself exploding over a tiny thing---maybe your son pulls the flat screen TV off the wall and it smashes into pieces? Little things like that can get Dads really upset if you know what I mean. I'm using humor to emphasize that you're dealing with emotional minefield stuff with these mass murders and you might just want to have a place where you can empty your mind from time to time of these horrible events that you cover on your show.

  11. Dear Mr Pakman, Isn’t it obvious that the Coronovirus epidemic coincides with President Trump in power? Why? Conspiracy theorists will fill in the dots, but this isn’t happening because of anything else than outside hostile powers have seen their chance to get the Chinese yuan in position to overtake the besieged US dollar. A mild laboratory concocted virus, with fingerprints all over it, much like a Russian government hit job leaving the 1911’s with the silencers still on the guns after the assassination. This thing was programmed to put a new world reserve currency in place plain and simple. Thank you David for some of the most thoughtful and thought-provoking videocasts covering a world of subjects. You have a gift for this new world profession of investigative-truth sayers.

  13. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your videocasts that focus on all the important issues of the day. What I think is appalling to viewers around the world is for America to for example, call out China on their treatment of the Uyghur Camps. Certainly, any oppressive policies are disgusting, but for America to call out China on oppressive policies is like Putin to call out Duterte for the assassination of opposition leaders. America is the light of the world, but so much has to be done on American soil to right the wrongs of oppressive policies that it seems ludicrous for America to call out other countries for oppressive policies. Aren't there 3 million people if not more sleeping rough in America? Isn't there more than 60,000 people living in tents on peoples front sidewalks in cities like LA? No country should oppress any minority groups, but America has got to take care of its own first to show a good example before bad mouthing other regimes.

  14. Dear Mr Pakman and Mr Scharfman, Thank you Mr Pakman for an extremely interesting interview and thank you Mr Scharfman for your informative answers on the food business. I'm coming in just after the potato farmer discussion at 15 h 00, because I have a question that has been on my mind for years. We acknowledge that for example, suddenly there is no demand for potatoes, so the farmers have no choice but to dump the spuds. But what about the fact that we hear horror stories happening this very day, in places like Somalia and other famine-hit areas of people literally going hungry in July 2020? My question is this: Why isn't there a way to send the food that farmers throw away to people who are starving? We have heard Orange tree farmers will dump tons and tons of produce to keep prices at a pofitable level. Why can't the excess or thrown-away food be sent to the millions of people dying of hunger in today's world?

  15. As an overseas viewer of your videocasts and extremely truth-getting and honest-to-tough questioning and examining, you deserve a vote of thanks from your countrymen and countrywomen and those of us around the world for bringing to everyone such a distinguished manner in reporting the news. It must have taken hundreds of hours of your time to delve into some of the reports you sent over the airwaves, and all of this shows you did this because you believe in the truth and you believe in your country. Your blistering analyses of Trump’s erratic and allegedly corrupt behavior and governing style undoubtedly helped many Trump supporters sitting on the fence to tumble off the other side towards politicians who walk the walk and talk the talk of government. It’s a hard world out there; we’re shackled to an economic system that has blinded us to the fact that because of capitalism we are unconsciously cordoning the annihilation of our biosphere and all of the fragile ecosystems that depend on us not going over tipping points, but with people like you David, shining light on the dark threats that hover over our heads, I’m confident we’ll get through this and save the world from the ravages of the human species. You can help get everyone on the same page about environmental concerns like you’ve done documenting the downfall of a sociopath that was your former president. Be well and take some time off when you can-you deserve it!

  16. What is great from across the world watching this is that a voice has been silenced that according to many people was far too pro-Russian and pro-alternative facts to be on an international cable TV station from America.

  17. David, you have devoted your life to The David Pakman Show and success is yours, because of one thing. You analyze the issues and deduce conclusions from the evidence that you accumulate, package it up and dish it out to us in sound bites we can chew on as long as we like. The cult you believe has formed around former President Donald J. Trump is based on one thing in my humble opinion: peer pressure. David, you have to understand that guys will hang out together from high school and there will be one in each group who mesmerizes all the other guys with feats of bravado, getting the chicks more than anyone else, having the chicks go for him more than anybody else----what am I saying here? The main dude in groups of male friends also calls the shots on what is cool. If he packs a Smith and Wesson, you can bet others will too. If he decides orthodontists are nurds because his dentist made him sick because he of what he looked like so he quit half way through treatment, then others in the group will make fun of orthodontists too. This is the nugget; if the top honcho in the band of brothers decides Trump tells it like it is, then all logic goes out of the window for the others in the group if they want to stay 'accepted' in the group, and from then on, every single one of them will mimic their leader and be present at a Trump rally. These Trumpists do not really listening to Trump's version of the world of course, but they are the ones cheering like mad the minute he says anything and applauding him especually when Trump says anything outrageous and blatently absurd that goes against the status quo...

  18. Is it true what we're hearing over here in Europe about a Donald J. Trump / George Santos ticket for 2024?

  19. I tune in to David Pakman's show now and again and I have to say as an overseas viewer how impressed I am about his expertise and his fair and accurate reporting style. This videocast is no exception, but what I am astonished at is how this man Steve Bannon has gone off the rails. For someone to be on a talk show, a program that people can tune in to and watch and listen to an American use language that sounds like it's coming from a terrorist leader in some middle-eastern country that no one knows about. Steve Bannon talks like he is a spokesman for America's working class and the only thing that keeps one from laughing is how this armchair commander, probably speaking from his 50 million dollar yacht, is the newly appointed spokesman for America's working people. Steve is angry at being arrested and humiliated in front of the world, but Steve is also delivering statement after statement of anti-American rhetoric that I believe he is going to pay dearly for.

  20. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for some of the most uplifting election coverage and reporting on your president throughout the Trump years. David, what I take away from your election though is troubling. Do you realize that you have fired both barrels from the hip of buckshot-criticism at Trump; you have pointed out over and over the outrageous behavior, illegal activity, tweet-storms, rudeness, sexual misconduct, mental instability and here we are holding our breath, hoping that Biden scrapes by and wins the ticket to The Oval Office? What am I saying? I am saying that it seems no matter how much mud you throw at President Trump, nothing really stuck. What I want to know is why? Okay, here is what I think happened and I'm looking at your election from the other side of the world, so I have a much different perspective. What I think happened is that white voters got cold feet and pressed the Trump button because they suddenly realized that the Biden Presidency could quickly morph into the Harris Presidency and that America would be governed by a black woman and that scared them. Biden went for Harris for a good reason, she's a terrific person, but he did it thinking Trump would sink like the Bizmark when the votes came in, and he didn't sink, he's about even with Biden. David, your attacks barely dented his armor. What does this tell us about what voter's think? They don't care what their candidate is accused of if they think he is going to put food on the table. Also, who the hek is ever gonna listen to the polls anymore? What is happening is that people are lying when they get asked who they are going to vote for because they don't want anyone to know they really want to vote for the crooked candidate. It's just hard anymore to make sense of how so much criticism could be leveled at Trump by you and almost everyone else and yet see half the country voting for a person that is frankly off his rocker. Your country is going through something that none of you and no one else around the world can put a finger on, but if you ask me I think the current economic system is showing its ugly face by forcing decent people to pick a clown over a normal person because they themselves can't understand why they wake up every day with a sinking feeling. Something's not rotten in Denmark, something's rotten at the FED. It's the economy and money that drive people and if some crazy guy like Trump comes along and promises the moon and they believe, nothing, absolutely nothing anyone says or does will change their opinion. But if Biden would have picked a young guy Macron's age, I'm sure you wouldn't be sweating the results of the election like you are now. But who can say? Be well, you're doing a great job and we wish you continued success and great health -

  21. David, can we start changing the narrative and call these 'exciting times'? Perhaps in your line of work, it would mean the loss of viewers, but we have been on the appocalyptic vibe for so long that it's beginning to be normal to see us in the end times. These are exciting times too. We have problems like every other time in history, but one can also look out there and see that this a fantastic time to be alive.

  22. Dear Mr Pakman, You have touched a subject that needs to be talked about: reading. I am very worried because in a few weeks or months my first book is going to be published. Writing as you probably know is one of the most challenging things one can do. Why; because you never get to say to yourself that your writing is anything more than needing more revision. In brief, I can’t believe how difficult it is to be happy with something I have written. My editor is pleading with me to send them the corrected manuscript, because I keep altering it. You see, once a book is published, you can never change it, so I keep asking them for more time. But after a couple of years I have to hand in the manuscript at the end of the month. Once it’s out there for everyone to judge, it can never be corrected. But I have to confess I’ve taken on a subject that is over my capabilities, and that is why I am doubly worried it will be scoffed. In brief, I am not an economist but for some reason I invented an economic system to replace capitalism and I am sure it will be ridiculed as completely utopic in nature, but I can only wait and see how it will be judged. Reading is essential, but is technology and YouTube taking us away from such a beneficial excercise? I'm afraid so. We have to realize that skills like reading, drawing, playing piano, singing, sports are what makes us human.

  23. We have to respect people's choices, Joe Rogan is like 3 of my friends who refuse to be vaccinated because they feel it violates their rights and I can accept that. What made me get vaccinated was how contageous this Covid-19 is. It's some kind of cocktail of a virus that keeps getting more deadly. Witness the newest member of the Covid family: the C.1.2. South African variant is now striking down our brothers and sisters and children in South Africa. The news from neighboring UK today is that 57,000 people tested positive for the Delta variant just today, along with 949 long-Covid cases. What I hope Joe Rogan doesn't get is long-Covid. There are 200--two hundred--known side-effects hitting 10 human organs in people who report having long-Covid. A doctor in Manchester U.K. has long-Covid. It hit her spinal nerve. At 36 years old, she will have to use a cane the rest of her life. She can only walk 200 meters and needs a banister to climb up the stairs in her flat. She's gone back to work and takes her condition in stride and she can accept being handicapped the rest of her life. Brave soul! The top 5 conditions that people say they experience when they come down with the Delta variant are 1. Runny nose 2. Headache 3. Sneezing 4. Sore Throat & 5. Loss of smell. Boys and girls, the only way we're going to get through this thing unscathed is to get outside and catch as much sun as you can, eat good food, and follow your instincts. I'm the only one that wears a mask in the elevator in my building and I don't care when they say I'm paranoid about catching the virus. Who would want to be in Joe's shoes today? We wish him a full recovery and everyone else too

  25. Dear Mr Pakman and Dr Gartner, Excellent interview.

  26. Mr Pakman, I’ve never experienced being shot at or being wounded by a bullet. The mass shootings in your country are a terrible stain on the otherwise wonderful nation America has become to stand for across the world. But as an outside observer from a country on the other side of the world from you, I have an idea that will surely not be appreciated by a lot of your fellow citizens, but I believe it’s the only way for you in America to bring down the level of mass shootings and neutralize more of the shooters. David, Isn’t the only way to defeat the gun problem your country staring us all in the face: mandatory gun-carry laws! Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of the mass-shooting in Boulder, Colorado, but seeing how the the 2nd Amendment in your Constitution allows guns to be sold and used and carried by people, why not use reverse psychology and make it mandatory for law-abiding, mentally and physically fit adults to be required to have a firearm on them at all times when they are in the public places? I know it must sound radical, perhaps even dangerous, but seeing what has been happening in your country from across the world, this is the only sane way to deal with problem Excuse me if this causes any pain, but honestly, I don’t see any other way to deal with lone gunmen or even terrorist attacks until the 2nd Amendment has been amended. To recap: People would be obliged to carry a concealed weapon on them at all times in public. We wear masques for a pandemic, isn’t the mass-shootings up to pandemic level? Why not accept that to live in America, you need a sidearm and you need to know how to use it if you want to survive? It's an opinion.

  27. Dear Mr Pakman and Mr Shimer, I am coming in at 5:34 because what Mr Shimer has said up to now is more than one can take in and realize how utterly contemptuous our democratic ledaders have been and how vulnerable America and other countries still are in allowing blatant interference by foreign powers to interfere in our free and fair elections. What is off-the-charts is how many American alternative news sources continue to say the 2016 election interference by Russia is fake news! I live in a democratic European country and I would not be surprised if Mr Shimer has some juicy tidbits about what has happened to this sleepy hole in the wall. But to get to my point, and Mr Pakman, could you please, please try to get some of the internet heavyweights on your show and take them to task on why on Earth American firewalls are not able to withstand any cyber attack let alone Russian hackers who can break through and cause electoral change by fudging results via the internet? Not clear? Let me say it this way. Why hasn't Microsoft for one come up with armor plated firewalls that stop all and every internet attack on American voting places and institutions? It's absurd that a two-bit authoritarian dictator gets his henchmen to change election results long-distance from the safe-houses they surely use to commit these outrageous and judging from what Mr Shimer says, very successful attacks on democracy that has seen changes in policy that favor Russian interventionalism. Lastly, and this probably will get me laughed off YouTube, but when there are two Davids, one questioning and the other answering, could one of the Davids be called Dave? Just for the interview. Be well!

  28. Dear Mr Packman, Everytime I hear one of your videocasts I know I am listening to a man who will one day be the Wolf Blitzer of the media. And of course it will be your style, but you’ve got what it takes to take television opinion journalism to a new level. What is astounding on the continuing Trump cascade of events is how outrageously corrupt each side road you go down is, no matter who it involves, what it’s about, where it happens. President Trump has his hands on power and he knows he has to run for re-election in order to stay out of jail. He knows he is the Epstein of former Presidents if this is his last term. The backstory to all this, especially for someone like me watching it all unfold on the other side of the world is how America has evolved into kind of a media circus where once someone has reached saturation in the public eye, it doesn’t matter what he or she does, because somehow everyone falls into line and grants immunity to practically everything he or she ends up doing. What is it Mr Packman, that makes this happen? Why does Mr or Mrs person of the street willingly accept wrongdoing if it comes from someone who was on TV? Peace.

  29. Dear Mr Pakman, You are the conscience of American people speaking to us from a corner of the USA. Thank you for making it clear to us on the other side of the world that what we thought was crazy nonsense going on over there is actually the case. What we have to realize is that we are collectively all responsible for the state of the world. The people boohooing the Cornovirus pandemic and wanting to be shoulder to shoulder in confined spaces are the air heads of today's world that deserve applause for showing us that human beings are not meant to control the destiny of a planet as wondrous and majestic as planet Earth. Yes; David, you have shown us that people will buy into just about anything if they see there is a bisquit waiting for them at the end. For a reason none of us can fathom, a carnival barker like Donald J. Trump continues to defy all odds in portraying himself as someone totally abscent in understanding let alone directing the fate of a nation as powerful as the USA. Here we stand today with despots continuing to flout their untouchability like in Putin's Russia where the only Russian opposition leader is dying from poisoning simply because he objects to what's going on in the Kremlin. An alien race happening on our planet would be astounded to be invited into The White House and President Trump as their host who would probably nuke them as soon as they finished their Big Macs. No; David, you are not going mad, but you are showing us that we are collectively mad.

  30. I'd like to throw in a solution that I believe is the only way forward, but I have no qualifications other than being a concerned world citizen living in Europe. My thinking goes like this: Why can't we ask the 26 Arab nations to come together and offer a parcel of land that is able to be enough for a country to thrive for the Palestinian people. Gaza is not enough space and cannot function as a country; the population of Gaza live in permanent state of insecurity and helplessness and it is like a festering wound. It gets cleaned with every mini-war, then the Hamas faction takes over, rebuilds the military arm, and then something ignites a new conflict. Can any of us imagine to live in a hell-hole like that and bring up our kids? No; no one can, but no one wants to tell it like it is. Israel has to win and will win and will never lose because it's really the silent 51st state of America. Gaza should go to Israel. Yes; I know this is preposterous to a great majortiy of people; but let's be real. It would give Israel the land it needs to become a country of a more respectable size. The Arab nations have more than enough land between them to come up with a parcel of their lands to offer the Palestinians an area large enough to prosper and thrive on. This is a painful, wrong-in-every-way solution, but it will lead to a win/win solution that will see one day in the future Palestinian and Israeli citizens at peace with eachother. It means concessions must be made; it means going against what people believe in, but there is no other way this can end peacefully. Briefly, Palestinians move from Gaza to a chosen land from their Arab brothers and sisters, and Gaza goes to Israel. Peace is something that can only happen when opposing sides have their backs against the wall. That time is now...

  31. Dear Mr Pakman and Mr Markovitz, Thank you Mr Pakman for one your best interviews and some of the most pertinent questions that arrow in on getting the best out of your guest. Thank you Mr Markovitz for your brilliant analysis of one of the most contentious points of the American experience in the present day: The inexplicable reason why inequality seems to perpetuate itself. I won’t go on much further other than to say I’m watching this from the country I live in half a world away from you. If I’m interested in this subject is because I believe I know what is ailing the American experiment and the global community in general in social justice: the economic system. Capitalism. What I gather from Mr Markovitz’s eye-opening disclosures about the elite is that the system, the capitalist system was never designed to do anything but bolster the top of the pyramid. It’s not people or the rich or the elite who are to blame. It is why I believe there can only be a leveling off of undeserved privilege in America and the world by replacing the aging capitalist juggernaut with a system that speaks equality from the get go. And yes; I have invented such a system albeit utopic and if things go as planned, my system will be published soon by a leading publisher and it would be great to have your feedback. Be well.

  32. It's an honest person who will admit he or she has been wrong. Now that I've got you on the line Mr Packman, I'd like to say what I think is the only way we are going to get CO2 levels back to pre-industrial times. Renewables are the way to go but the problem is the way to go to where they will start bringing down CO2, methane etc., levels is too far and hence too late to save us. So; here is my opinion and I have no research to back it up. It just makes sense---better sense---to go this way, at least in my opinion. If we look at what's happening to the plastic continent swirling out there in the pacific, I think it was a week ago that the first 'garbage' collector boats went out to rope in the floating debris. They are recycling the plastic to make things like frames for eye glasses. David, what I think we should do is mimic the garbage collector boats and by that I mean to 'vacuum' out the foul air pollutants from our atmosphere. Does anyone see what I mean by this? At this writing new coal mines are opening up; this translates out to mean that coal is going to continue to get burned. So are we if we don't go after the pollutants in the air by means of machines that scrub the air across the world. It's just that if we don't go after the bad air, we'll be waiting forever before companies go green.

  33. David, it must be so difficult for you and Jewish people in general to be dragged into yet another blame-game about the downfall of a high-tech company that once was the darling of everyone who sent a tweet to whomever they pleased and was happy to talk about it. It makes me so sad to hear that a giant in our world of today's marvels, Elon Musk, has the audacity to find a scape-goat with him blaming a Jewish civil rights group Anti-Defamation League for losing half his revenues in a company he bought and sent to the bottom of the sea by his own decisions. I cannot even imagine how Jewish people must be shaking their heads and wondering how in the world one of mankind's geniuses has the gall to blame them for decisions he himself has made.

  34. David, the saddest thing of Eric Bolling's tirade and subsequent firing from Fox News because of his alleged sending pictures of his private parts to female employees, is that when he got his walking papers, his only son who was at a private university went out and bought enough illegal substances to send him to the here and after. Eric and his wife lost their son. When we see Eric on this news clip, we see a man who is a ghost of the dynamic person he used to be. But he's got work and he's making his come back and we have to wish him well. The lesson here for all of us is to realize how dangerous it is to send any private information on e-mails or social media. I have for example, never sent anything to anyone that had negative connotations in it. I never send an angry statement, because it can come back to haunt you. Sending a pix of your private parts shows someone who has disconnected with reality. The price is sometimes inestimable.

  35. Dear Mr Pakman, As an observer of your show from the other side of the world, I can say with all honesty that I think insurance agent might be something to consider... Okay; I get it: save the jokes. You do a great job. David? David? Calling all cars. Calling all cars. Where is Mr Pak... I promise I'll stop, but the wine was tremendous and dinner was... I forgot what I had for dinner. Alrigh...t already. Seriously, David, Donald J. Trump has the behavior of a man who knows the party's over. He knows the only second term he's going to be having is a second term of lawsuits coming his way when he gets put out to pasture. It's a laugh to think Trump would barricade himself in The White House with Bill Barr riding shotgun No; it won't happen: Trump will leave quietly with his tail between his legs for one very good reason: follow the money, stupid! There's no money to be made playing Davey Crockett and the Alamo. Trump is toast. He has given it away that the powers that be, and they certainly do exist, the powers that be know that this bird will fly and fly far away from the mess he's had a big part in creating. It's an opinion-

  36. David, I have to say this to you and it's about your country and 9/11 and first you should interview American physicist Dr Judy Wood who spent ten years investigating 9/11. You won't be disappointed. This is a fact: 220,000 tons of structural steel came tumbling down and most of it never reached the ground, did it? For crying out loud, the Manhattan bathtub was not even dented, the parking garage under the towers did not cave in. Red flag anyone? There were people trapped with a firefighter in the bottom corner at ground level in one of the towers, suddenly they heard the tower they were under begin to fall and all said goodbye to each other because 100 floors were about to crush them to death, but seconds later, they were stunned to see sunlight shooting through the roof of their floor. Where had all the rubble gone. 3,000 porcelain toilets were in the towers and not one piece bigger than a silver dollar was ever found; ditto with office equipment, chairs, computers. The biggest red flad was that the government said Building 7 came down because of an office fire---a waste paper basket was to blame. President Bush waited 440 days to set up an investigative commission. The longest any prior president waited to set up a similar commission after a disaster was... are you ready for this: 6 days. My cousin is an airline pilot and he said a commercial plane would break up at 540 mph flying at 300 feet above the ground. The main hijacker’s passport was found in the street below---not even singed. And: this happened too: 57 out of 58 of the Pentagon's surveillance cameras were turned off that morning. Stuff happens, it was certainly a coincidence...

  37. David, even for you who has become used to commenting on stories about people that stretch the limits of credulity must be going home after your show this evening shaking your head and asking yourself if this really happened. Because the mere fact that Tucker Carlson has done this interview is an insult to all of you in broadcasting and television journalism and journalism in all its forms. There is no excuse for trashing a former American president with slime and which is an insult to all and everyone tuning in. Does Tucker Carlson not see how he is dragging your American flag in the mud and hanging out America's alleged dirty laundry for the whole world to see? The answer of course is that Mr Carlson has lost his moral compass for good this time.

  38. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for an update on the Coronovirus pandemic in your country. First, can you give us an answer about one thing about the pandemic that is very perplexing? Why isn't the virus infection rate going down with the warm weather like the flu does? We expected it would spike again in the fall with the flu season coming back, but this virus is turning out to be a virus that thrives in warm weather. Second, isn't the most likely reason it is surging in the south because of AC? Lastly, why not try some new things that don't cost any money? Why not do a national quarantine in your country for 14 days? Do it right across the country. Then come back to work. It would be a hit on the economy, but not so bad because it would be like someone's vacation time.

  40. David, please save your critiques about people's brain-wave capacities. You know very well you had to repeat 3rd grade three times! Joking, of course. David, I was kidding? He's where? Goofy tonight, but seriously, please refrain from judging Eric Trump's mental dollars, if he is broke, people will see it, but you don't need to remind us he is short-changed. He is in mental denial to a degree that is dangerous to himself and those around him, because he has bought into a rhetoric that is banana-republic government-speak. Stay calm through the coming rough seas on the Trump-bumps in the long and winding road ahead that leads to San Quentin in the sky, because more likely than not, former President Donald J. Trump will be spending more time in heaven or where ever famous crime-family chiefs go than in a prison cell. Show and don't tell; stay relaxed and there is no need to get emotional, this a sad event for your country and you do a magnificent job in cutting to the chase.

  41. David, you have one of the most interesting Youtube channels and I finally figured out why: you criticize and add your comments, but you stay positive and as neutral as possible and say it all enthusiastically with a smile. The saddest thing about the Trump Chronicles to me is that Donald J. Trump actually made it to The White House to become your president. Imagine all of the things he could have uncovered, patched up and changed forever for the benefit of his fellow Americans? But fate chose otherwise and he became a buffoon----he threw away everything...

  42. Good work David Pakman! You are exposing people to candidates running for office in your country who are literally not qualified or capable of being in government, and whom are using the devious techniques to pretend they are that you have graciously outlined in your videocast. This is not only good for the American public, it is good for people watching across the world from you, because politics and politicians may look different and talk another language or worship another God, but they use the same playbook and we the people need to be aware of the fools we elect to lead us. People like Vivek Ramaswamy, a Vics Vapor Rub sort of guy in that he gives the impression that he has got what it takes to cure all of society’s ills, but in reality, all he offers is a double flubber burger with twisted truths and no substance and who makes up word salads that explain things no one seems to know or care about. Vivec is brilliant but America doesn’t need another dyed-in-the wool Trump figure i.e., another politician who gives a wax shine on every subject he’s quizzed about whether it needs it or not. To wrap this up: Vivec might be accused of being a political contender of merit one day, but he won't get there by speaking through both sides of his mouth saying things that only make sense if you forget the question that was asked of him. In brief, he will be one of America's best and brightest Republican politicians in the future’s past and yesterday’s present.

  43. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you David for some of the most honest reporting on the fascinating panorama of events unfolding by the day in your marvelous country and around the world. We live in a country next to France where an Orthodox Greek Priest was gunned down yesterday evening. It's too bad that Pastor Kenneth Copeland couldn't have extended his savior's immunity to cover this man of God who is now fighting for his life in a hospital. People of another faith in France have decided that freedom of expression in their host country is wrong, and the only way to eradicate it is to cut people's heads off or gun the most humble and righteous people down to make their point. Everywhere you look where people follow religious texts to be literally the word of God there is mayhem. But that's our world, and in a way we must take what Jesus said or is attributed to have said and that is we must forgive them for they really don't know what they're doing is sick and wrong and inhuman. France is America's oldest ally and we haven't heard your president or any lawmaker come out and show their support for the embattled President Macron. I'll bet you FDR would have had a word or two to say among a string of other presidents. But we all know political correctness is the real infection in today's world. I think that President Trump truly believes he is doing the best for your country and as you say, millions of people in your country believe he is a good president and millions don't. But what I take home from Trump's rallies is this: imagine just this scenario. Imagine only one person in all of Trump's rallies gets the Coronavirus, goes to the hospital, survives and then comes home and because of complications that develop later in his or her from this devastating virus, he or she loses ten years off their life. To me this would be a crime. Be best -

  44. Why on Earth are the wise words of common sense of John Voight only spoken now? What is the hang-up of making sure only qualified people own dangerous weapons? It will create beaurocratic red tape and the like, but new jobs will come out of it and the same number of guns if not more will get sold. Lastly, what are AR rifles doing being sold to the general public in the first place? Why would battlefield guns be getting sold to people who are not in a war zone? Why not sell grenades? The high velocity bullets from AR rifles make trauma surgeons well-up with tears in interviews because of how damaging their effect is on organs and tissue. Apparently, a handgun's slug will go through an organ, but it won't destroy the organ---it will kill you if it goes through the heart or brain---but otherwise it won't do the explosive damage a high velocity bullet will do. It's easy for us to criticize who don't live in America, but it's a pity that the political system has been compromised by big business to the point where plain and simple logic get side-stepped if profits are at all diminished...

  45. Dear Mr Pakman, Your delivery of the news has reached 9 out of ten so many times that it's hard to find anything to criticize you for, but for you giving your assessment at 5:10 about President Trump being this and that, a threat to humanity, etc., seems to go too far. By you stating emphatically what you have just said sort of removes for your viewers the need to come up with anything more to say on the matter. Maybe that's fine with you? But I think, if you lay out the facts as you do in an extremely efficient way and then say something like, "Well, I know what I think should happen with our president, but, hey, what do you guys think? Right away, people will think stuff like: "What, are you crazy, they need to evaluate psychiatrically President Trump, lik---yesterday!" By you detonating the sound-bite bomb, lighting the fuse to the mega-political dynamite, it takes away from the viewer the ability for the people viewing to think it, say it, etc. It's an opinion.

  46. Dear Mr Pakman, You obviously have a keener eye and ear for details, but the Hardball Chris’ remarks about France falling to the Germans doesn’t really come off to me as anything more than landslide commentary. I live next to France so maybe I don’t see it as something sinister, but if he compared Bernie’s victory to the Russians winning in Stalingrad, would that have been any better? I think there are sensibilities that are fragile everywhere on everything these days. I have one thing to say about Sanders and that is that he is hands down the winning candidate, but his eyes seem to be saying, “I know I shouldn’t be here, but I love my country and I’ll die for it if it means winning against Trump”. I hope I’m wrong, but I think a heart attack means the heart muscle was damaged and getting up in front of raving supporters has got to be hell on the nervous system. I know when The Rolling Stones play a stadium, they need something like 3 hours to come down from the adrenalin rush. I think it will be a miracle if Bernie makes it to 2021. I don't think Chris from Hardball was referring to anything more that a big Victory. I'm looking at things from a long way away, just an opinion

  47. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your excellent ability to single out the facts in the Mueller summary that AG Barr has summarized among other current affairs issues. The thing is that people who you have convinced will start dropping out of believing because little by little their belief systems will be manipulated by the flood of 'government speak' that is only just beginning. What is the solution? In my opinion, the only thing you can do to deal with the criticism is to calmly restate your case over and over again, rather than try to answer to the critics. Keep showing your analyses the way you have been because your facts are 24 carat gold, spot on, correct. You see what’s going on, but don’t get conned into going down the rabbit hole and show your cards by looking shaken by the sudden shift in blame your way. Stay calm, stick to your guns, pretend you are saying it for the first time. The critics will eventually see you were right from day one. Keep up the good work.

  48. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for some very good television journalism. What is sad about this videocast is that if Assange had run Wikileaks as a neutral company, we might have had access to the Russian e-mails about the plane that was shot down with a Russian missile over the Ukraine with almost 300 men, women and children killed. Those e-mails exist. Why has no one published any? Is it because they know the price they would have to pay? Please, could you tell us your take from your research on the Apollo 11 flight to the moon? What do you think happened? Did they go to the moon?

  49. David, we have been following your channel across the seas from you, and you really do a great job. It must be something for you to see that former President Donald Trump is still acting like all of his alleged crimes were a fairy story.

  50. Shouldn't you be less dramatic in criticizing the Trump supporters and deliver your message without telling people what they are saying as well as showing the audience on your face what you believe is going on? I mean, isn't the thing in television journalism to deliver the message so that no one knows what side your on? Why do that? So; then the viewing and listening public can decide for themselves. What I'm saying is that you are presenting news with your slant up front and center; let the people decide for themselves.

  51. Christie is a warm and charming person and he has a magical way of speaking; we listen and he always makes good sense. But we should never forget Mr Christie is able to turn on a dime and change his allegiance to someone if the political winds so dictate. He's a weather-vane politician par excellence i.e., he cannot be taken for his word.

  52. What we have to realize is that people from the human community do not judge others---and I am an artist not any sort of professional in the mental health field. People who attack anyone else because of their ethnicity, color or creed or their personal choices in being in charge of their bodies i.e., whatever sex they feel they are do not belong in the human community writ large. We live in Europe and like clockwork there are signs around town saying the antisemitism is on the rise, people are attacking Jews because of the Palestinian/Hamas/Israeli conflict in Gaza, etc., and for me and I am sure many other people, these people are not a part of what should be called the human community. We are simply not like that; we are freedom-loving people where everyone is welcome to live the life they please. What the critics of other people think only they know, but every person alive has as much a right to be here as anyone else. These people who simply cannot accept someone else being different than themselves or that they worship God in another way than they do have to realize that the human family has moved on. We are not like that; we don't condemn or judge others because it's nobody's business what someone believes in. Moreover, in the case of the Jews, because they a small minority who are very successful, they are often shunned and accused of all sorts of ridiculous things. It's insulting to think that people could be so cruel towards others and call themselves human beings. The people who harbor harmful thoughts or disdain for others have the right to think what they like, but they are not part of the human community, they are some sort of an offshoot of what we think of as human, and they do not speak for people who believe everyone has the right to live the life they want.

  53. Dear Mr Pakman, You are a reporter's reporter. Thank you for your tireless work in analyzing the current issues. You have pointed out the darkest shadow over the Trump Administration, and imagine how many who have lost their lives from President Trump's decision that we don't know about! This is Something I hope you have time to look at as it will be the top of the top in terms of political bombshells: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIHWaaJNktQ Australian Sky News report that could put the Coronovirus pandemic in even more hot water.

  54. At 1:19 into your vocast David, Rep. Greene says to the audience and the world that former President Trump won the state of Georgia. As an overseas viewer, I am stunned at how many people in the audience cheered when she said that. It's a testament to your great republic that free speech reigns and people can say anything, but it's an example of someone on the national and international stage who is doing absolutely no good to the country she swears allegiance to. This is a wake-up call to the education system in America and it shows that far too many people not qualified for public office are slipping through the checks and balances because public schools are not being placed in the highest possible position compared with other professions. Teachers should be the most respected and highest paid professionals in your country and why they are not is because everyone knows our capitalist economic system can be twisted to make the people who teach our children well remain low on the totem-pole of wage earners because there is no immediate gain from their work. No one sees their receipts going through the roof. There is no glitter and shine and show of wealth from the end of the school year a teacher has brought the kids through. It is down on the list of being the most revered and respected profession in America and Majorie Taylot Greene is not to blame for her outrageous behavior and lack of intellectual skills; it's the education system that is the ghost in the machine.

  55. Thank you, David, for delving into this subject. It may be called 'low-hanging-fruit' by some, because everyone wants to pick a piece of it to suit their own belief system. I am throwing myself to the dogs of conspiracy, but Dr Judy Wood's ten-year studies into what caused the destruction of the WTC Towers is still ringing in the minds of many---including yours truly. David, Garrett, 220 tons of structural steel turned to dust as the towers came down---Judy called it the 'dustification' of steel beams that are visibly turning into powder as they come tumbling down. Whatever you want to say about 'alien' technology, the twin towers coming down in their own footprint and not damaging the parkings below or the Manhattan bathtub make no sense to modern physics. People who were trapped at the ground floor in one of the towers prayed out loud when they heard their building collapse, but then, like a miracle, there was blue sky shining through a crack in the cieling. Impossible! Look at George W. Bush climbing up only a few meters with his arm around a firefighter. A building has 12.5 % debris field when it comes down----that's 12 and a half floors of rubble! Where did it go?

  56. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for the great coverage of Trump's campagne and the last few years of his off-the-charts managing style as President of The United States. I'm obviously not on target in what I'm about to say, seeing how everyone is going to Obama rallies, but I think Obama isn't doing the Biden/Harris ticket more than acting like a candidate himself and not a former president. I mean, Obama is known as a great orator, but to see him slinging mud with titles the National Equirer would like on their newspapers brings him down to a level that is below him in my view. He's been the cheerleader for the left, but instead of saying the things that are outrageous about Trump that everyone knows anyway, he should be up there as an elder statesman. Just for him to walk on stage and say a few things that are positive about Biden for ten minutes would be much more devastating for Trump. To me, he has given Trump's followers more reasons to back their candidate. But you guys know best and it's your country and that's why one person's opinion is just that: one person's point of view.

  57. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your honest and thoughtful reporting of the facts. You are doing your countrymen and people like myself on the other side of the world a great service. It boggles the mind how the Trump circus keeps rolling on. His latest antics, with the rape allegations are over the top. I wrote to the lady to ask her to rethink not pressing charges. She says she won’t go to the authorities because so many other women are getting worse aggressive treatment in the migrant camps, so she doesn’t want to steal the spot light from them. I told her that it would be the opposite, that she would empower women to denounce a rapist. It looks like the Senate are a frozen body, the Congress have been relieved of any power, and that a US president can just about get away with murder – as Trump joked on his campaign, that he could blow someone away on 5th Avenue and no one would bat an eye. It’s the (banana-republic) White House in prime time. There is so much illegal stuff shown on TV and Trump seems to be able to walk away from anything. Reagan was called the Teflon president; nothing stuck to him that was negative. Trump must be ‘the invisible’ man president; we see through him, we see his game, yet he escapes at the end of the day and is back in The Oval Office the next day like nothing happened. The mainstream media are in shock and awe. Here we have President Trump denying he knew the woman, and when the reporter confronted him about the photo he said, “Yeah, but it was a shot of me from behind,” or something like that. Peace

  59. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your continued coverage in your 'revenge of a rogue president' series. What it comes across to me about Lindsey Graham's latest crime in-plain-sight shenanigans could be an attempt by fall-guy Graham to get the spotlight off the wounded bear - President Trump. By throwing himself under the bus, Graham has once again displayed his political savvy to save his beleaguered 'friend' in The White House. Why would he do this, you ask? The Republicans want to get the harsh spotlight off their bogeyman in The Oval Office. Graham's faked attempt in broad daylight to play the masked marauder is ludicrous and too blatenly obvious for this man's eyes. They need to redeem the master of lies as much as they can so Trump can leave office less ragged.

  60. As an overseas viewer, I try to bring a different perspective to the issues David Pakman talks about on his vidcasts. I'm an artist and my job is to solve problems of paintings that I've created that are incredibly hard to figure out because I don't know exactly what I'm trying to achieve. I put this same mindset towards problems in society. I think the Rep. Paul Gosar has no place in American Government, national or local. To put what he has done as simply as possible, Rep. Gosar has put Congresswoman Alexandra's (AOC)life in danger. By doing what he did, he not only showed the world he is unfit for his job, he's also given the green light to the unstable people out there to commit a crime.

  61. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for another inciteful look at ‘goes? what? on?’ in Joe Biden’s mind. What is most puzzling to me, and please research this point, but what I can’t understand is how in 2011 when Obama laid it out to Assad that if he ever used chems again on his people, he would cross a red line and the US would intervene. We all know Assad called Obama’s bluff and went on to gas, assassinate, bomb with chlorine gas his people to the number of 500,000 plus women, children and men. Where was Joe Biden on that episode? Why didn’t he press Obama to put in a no-fly zone and shut down Assad’s choppers and fighter planes and bombers? Biden’s foggy memory is a red flag event that is going to come back and haunt the free world. He’s all you got to knock out Trump, but our democracies have serious flaws and this is an example of how capitalism has so poisoned the electoral process that you have to rely on rerun politicians to play musical chairs again!

  62. Thank you for your interesting and original and very human analyses of the news. David, I’m not in your business, but every time I tune in you seem to be fixated on either something former President Trump has said or done or worse, something his children or the Trumpian brand is promoting. You know best, but if you keep pumping up their brand, we’re never going to be able to move on and forget this dysfunctional family. Why do I say that? Because every time you shine the light on some dumb thing Trump or Trump Jr or a Trump hanger’s-on does, it keeps their bombastic balloon sailing high. Can’t we move on? If you don’t give them air time, they’ll fade far in the background where they belong. It’s an opinion. Keep up the good work!

  63. Great to see you right on the ball in assessing former Donald J. Trump's cognitive decline on what has to be called his teflon presidential run. Democracies have it made for outliers because you are free to speak your mind. Shouldn't Trump update his iconic MAGA media message in 2024 to mean: MAKE AMERICA GOOFY AGAIN?

  64. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your show. You give us a space to recover our sanity. My thoughts have been on this observation: How could it be possible for Trump to have really contracted the Coronavirus if he's out and about and looking more or less normal? Are we to believe a 74 year old, over-weight man was diagnosed positive with one of the most deadly viruses to affect humans in a century, and he can go out campaigning like nothing happened? David, isn't it obvious that this was all a sleight-of-hand play to get everyone's eyes off the disasterous debate with Biden? There is no way someone could be back on his or her feet after picking up even a mild dose of this virus. And what about his wife, Melania? What's going on? What I don't understand is how Trump's doctors are not being forthright.

  66. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your chanel because I think there are a lot of people out there like myself who have benefited immensely by your way of stiching together the patch work called modern society which is our perseption of reality in the present day world. You tell it like it is. I would go one step further and say that Americans as well as those of us around the world are collectively responsible for a person like Donald J. Trump at the helm of the most powerful nation the Earth has ever known. Seriously, we are all to blame and I think it comes down to some pretty silly things and other distractions. Mostly, I think we are a species who are drawn in by the carnival atmosphere that characters like Trump seem to thrive in. Here is a term from the British that I think nails Trump to a 'T': Barking Mad. I truly believe most people who voted for Trump either at the ballot box where their votes were actually counted (a little Floridian Bush-victory-humor) and others who are taken in by a con man so adept at keeping us on the edge of our seats that he wins over us by slight of hand and... we don't care. That's it David, we're all collectively responsible because our portable devices and the magic of madmen being able to win us over simply by being on TV shows us to be eternal children who would rather be led to slaughter by a con man if he looks the part and has billions of cash and income returns that never can be seen to verify the graft. We can be bamboozled by charlatans posing as gifted leaders ready to help their fellow man. It's an opinion.

  67. David, I have been tuning in to your show for a while now and I think I speak for many people when I say you are one of the most frank, most dedicated people in the media who tries to show things as they really are. Seeing Don Trump Jr.'s rant and rave show doesn't make me see someone on a particular substance. What it does make me see is that the Trump brand is something that gets past ordinary peoples' censors. This stuff cuts through mainstream media reporting like a knife through butter. And: this is why we all have to step back and realize that our portable devices that we all love and cherish can turn us into turnip-heads if we're not careful.

  68. Dear Mr Pakman, You have a videocast here that makes me wonder what is coming down the pike. What is happening in your country to the education of all levels of students is like you said a failure of the political system to not have had a plan 'B' or plan 'C' or plan 'D' already thought up, worked out and ready to put in action. The military, more the airforce on 11 September 2001was doing war games for a probable attack on the Twin Towers; yes: they were going through excercises the day of 2001 on September 11th to be prepared for an eventual... attack... on; ohmygosh: The World Trade Center! What a coincidence! I just wanted to use a an example to kill two birds with one stone. The point is: what on Earth do the planners do in the US Government? Can we honestly believe an incoming president like Donald J. Trump would disband the pandemic department the first day on the job? It's incomprehensible to see the mayhem and fracturing of American society by a pandemic that should have been thought threw and even tested... like the September 11th excercises.

  69. Dear Mr Pakman, You have been covering the news for the whole of President Trump's time in office and I think everyone would agree that in spite of Trump being all of the things people say he is, he has made you a world-class television journalist, videocast star reporter---I don't have the label, but congratulations on bring social commentary up a notch or two. I believe that Trump made a mockery of debating, but I firmly believe that Joe Biden must go through the debates and not take the bait of letting Trump get under his skin. He must not use street language to talk about Trump, but--and this is only my advice--he must pretend he's debating Elizabeth Warren and not let his emotions get the better of him. This way, the debate goes out across the world to where I'm sitting for example, as simply a heated-exchange between rival politicians. For Biden to cop out and stop debating would send the wrong signal. Frankly, so what if Trump can't debate. You let him ramble on. You let him interrupt. You go through the motions and refer to him by saying things like: "Well, I think President Trump has made a good point there, at least in his opinion, but I see things this way... It's too easy to give advice, but I think you can't put rules up there as to what a debate has to be: let everyone speak their mind.

  70. At 8:45 Dan Dennett says we are undergoing a revolution in who knows what! This is exactly where we are and why I have great hopes for the coming days, weeks and months and years no matter how many wars there are or how AI becomes god-like or how people fall away from or into religion or what a Trump presidency would do for America and the world. Because none of it really matters. What I see is that it is ok for people to believe in whatever they want to believe in, as long as they are deriving a benefit from it and it is not causing harm to others. David, Dan, I am an artist and I went into a gallery yesterday and the gallery owner said that now there are too many artists. I was waiting to hear that, because I am not in the top 100 let alone top 10,000 artists alive and working around the world. But what I see is that making art makes me happy; I compose songs and none of them have sold, but singing songs makes me happy. What I am saying is that the only revolution we need to follow in the human community is to follow your heart's desire and go to that place where you see the world as a pretty nice place to be in. When you follow that revolution, you can see that what is happening around you is only make believe in that you can interpret it six ways from Sunday and still find reasons to let it scare you or inspire you.

  71. David, I cannot speak for the whole world; all I can say though is that the Trump phenomenon is just that: a phenomenon that defies understanding. Number one; how can anyone believe in anyone who told lies in front of the whole world, and who has had 20 women willing to testify against him for inappropriate actions against women, misconduct and even sexual aggression? It beggars's belief why the GOP would throw themselves under the bus for a man obviously out to seriously tarnish the image of your great nation. Why is a mentally unstable person able to hold such sway in America? Could you or anyone you know go on stage and be filmed in front of a global audience and say things that you knew were untrue? No; no one we know could ever imagine doing such a thing, yet here was the President of The United States doing it practically every day of his presidency. That's not all; then there were the millions of people saying: that's our man; he's the greatest. It is the saddest testament of the mega-hyped, disenchanted millions of American's who know deep down inside that Trump could give a crap for any one of them, but he at least looks them in the eye and that's all they want, because they have given up on ever getting ahead in the capitalism-gone-wrong state of the union. Long live the American Republic. Let's be real: capitalism is tearing the whole world down.

  72. It's great to see you shining a light on Governor DeSantis' against-the-prevailing-winds governing style. As an overseas viewer, I was struck by how the Prime Minister of New Zealand shut the whole country down after one case of Covid-19 Delta was discovered. The whole country. To hear that 25 thousand people have tested positive in Florida not only in one day, but almost every day does not compute with how Governor DeSantis is analyzing the data. What I always do is to break it down to is how terrible it is for just one patient to be in an ICU unit--I'm only telling what I've heard---and having to make the final realization things are really bad when he or she is told they have to insert a breathing tube down their throat. David, can any of us imagine how scary and appocalyptic one would feel being intubated? This is just one case, and what is it? 80% of intubated patients don't make it back. It is beyond belief that in America's greatest hour of need--in this case 20 months--the level of incompetence in elected officials is beyond the pale. All we can hope for is that people who aren't vaccinated realize that Covid-19 Delta is a non-starter.

  73. I'm watching from across the world from you and the Buffalo shootings are a terrible blemish on America. Hate crimes are emotional earthquakes that shake our whole world. David, I try to find solutions to problems. I am an artist and how I see the way to end hate crimes in your country is for people like you to say this: everyone belongs here. What do I mean by that? I mean, from videos to politicians to everyday people, we've got to get this message out there: everyone has the right to be in your country and in the world. Period. No one gets left behind on this planet. This will throw a stick in the spokes of the people who somehow think only they have a right to be here. We've got to say it loud and clear: everyone has the right to be here or where ever here is to any human being in the world. It's one way to show that no one gets left behind.

  74. David, you have been reporting about former President Trump on numerous issues, but to hear this latest one of sexual harassment while he was president takes the cake. How on Earth could former President Donald J. Trump even think of harassing women in The White House while married to a beautiful woman, Melania, is off-the-charts! It is so sad that you and the American people have to put up with these reports of misconduct from a former president.

  75. We have to understand the point of view of people who don't get vaccinated. One of my best friends refuses to get vaccinated because he says his wife and him rarely go out and don't see many people and so they feel protected. He doesn't smoke and is in perfect health and he thinks if he catches the virus it'll be like the flu. He's financially secure and bought big when Bitcoin hit the scene, so he can cruise through the pandemic on his own terms. However, I just tell him---and others like him---that for me I take my doctor's advice. I'm not a health professional and if my doctor and many other health professionals say this is what we have to do to avoid being hospitalized---and worse---getting long-Covid, I'm all in. But people that don't get vaccinated are usually healthy and non-smokers and lead a good life, so I can understand their point of view. But the tragic side of this is that this virus---and there's a new one in neighboring France from Cameroon that has 46 mutations on the protein spike as opposed to 32 on the omnicron---the terrible truth is that this virus is like none they've ever seen. The new one from Cameroon tells me there must be dozens of other ones in Africa alone. Be well and Happy New Year to David Pakman and the DP Team!

  76. I'm going to stop you right here at 5:36 when you say there is no evidence right here that it--the Wuhan virus--came from a lab. David, I live on the other side of the world from you so my sources are from your country and other countries as well. I listen for example, to Indian TV and they say categorically that Dr Fauci was involved in the Wuhan lab coverup. Whether they are right or wrong is for serious journalists to investigate, but India has over a billion people, and if their top investigators say it came from a lab I'm inclined to think they may be on to something. Then there is Australia. I have seen reports of Australian virologists saying that when the Wuhan virus is placed in front of an animal cell or a human cell, it will attack the human cell. The Australian virologists say this has never happened before. I just try to listen to all sides. Why would the Chinese have allowed planeload after planeload of their citizens to fly out of Wuhan in January, February and half of March 2020, but not to other regions of China? Why have all the journalists, lab workers, doctors and researchers who said the lab-leak theory was right on the money, why were all those people jailed for years? Why is the Wuhan virus obviously when looked under a micoscope altered with whatever that's been grafted on to it? David, when you see the heated debates on Indian television, you cannot walk away thinking they're making it all up. There is also no animal that the Chinese have brought forward to show that the virus came from a particular species of animal. Lastly, the Chinese have refused any inquiry into the origins of the virus on the grounds that it is politcal. Give us a break!

  77. David, what I can tell you is that the European version of this clip shows that Biden is shaking hands with a grinning Cheshire cat. Unfortunately, producers thought this would cause chaos if the vocast went viral so they erased the smiling feline and that is why it looks like Biden is shaking... hands... with...

  78. This is David Pakman's graduate class in reaching the global audience as someone who is interested in hearing all the facts. Richard Dawkins, whom everyone knows has broken the mold in humanity's biblical view of the world is showing once again that all Richard is saying is look at the facts.

  79. David, you are shining a light into the darkest corners of your country and it must be very difficult at times for you to report on God-loving people calling for the destruction of the life of other human beings who simply have a different point of view than they do. I mean, why not condemn people to the gallows who don't like the same flavor of ice cream as you do?: it's that absurd but here we are in 2022 and we see people in this video literally calling for the death of other people because of their sexual preference. Religion makes a lot of people feel a purpose in life, but I think no Holy Book should ever be interpreted to mean doing harm to others. Why things like this are still going on in 2022 makes no sense to me; I don't get it. Maybe it's time to start a new religion?

  80.  @sisuguillam5109  GGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. Judging from the sales of my latest book which is selling poorly in the four corners of the world, I do not exactly feel on top of the world. I love criticism, but you cannot just condemn someone's comments with a 'zinger'. Tell the person what's wrong with what they said and show them your research and analyses. otherwise it's all name calling.

  81. This is one of David Pakman's best videocasts not only because he is adamant in his belief that his country must leave the graveyard of the empires, but that America is not the world's policeman. My take on things is from someone living in Europe and therefore getting a different perspective. I think America and her allies' presence in Afghanistan for two decades gave the Afghan's time to adjust their mindset to what they want for their country. Like it or not, they voted in a medieval terrorist group that will set them back culturally, morally and socially to an extent only they will be able to tell us about. But what I believe is key here is that the Afghans will watch and listen and submit to the Taliban rule as we all know they will do willingly or otherwise, however, they have now had 20 years of westernization and the Taliban might use their Holy book as their take-over guide until Kingdom come, but the Afghanistan people will also start pondering on what the Taliban are bringing them. Already, men cannot wear jeans. How long will they buy into things like that is anybody's guess, but I think we are going to see the Taliban cross the proverbial line in the sand down the road, and when they do the Afghanistans people will take justice in their own hands and decide their fate like the Taliban have decided the fate of these courageous people at this writing. What I think we are going to see is a time bomb going off somewhere in the near or hopefully not, distant future, and it's going to blow up under the Taliban this time. America's and her allies' huge losses of blood and treasure won't be in vain.

  83. Great to hear from you Mr Pakman, The videocasts just keep getting better. President Trump has had a nervous breakdown, and the video-clues you have shown us back it up. He is ill and he is winging it on live TV in front of the whole world. Can you organize a nation-wide write-in, speak-in, whatever it takes to ask President Trump out of the decency of his heart to give up the charade and step down from office for the good of your country and the free world. Keep up the good work. Can you get the specialist and American heroine of 9/11, Dr Judy Wood on your show for an interview?

I may come back, but I'd like to see more favorable reporting on Sean Hannity's fantastic wise counsel to the Donald. I mean, David never mentions the fact of how well Trump has performed with Hannity's great advice!!!

  86. David, I've said it before and I'll say it once again, you are a voice of reason and wisdom and would make an excellent American President. This vocast is shocking to me, because I have done my best to learn as much as I can from several of the world's most prevalent religions and I can only say I have not found any reason to be a part of any organised religion.

  87. It is wrong, wrong,wrong to knock the success of someone, but Elon Musk has got to be America's poster boy for getting his mug on just about every media platform that exists! What I think is unsettling is that Twitter is a thought platform and if you own Twitter you sort of own thoughts or you can project your thoughts on others discreetly and shape the mindset of a nation and since people are gullible, Elon's point of view is not only going to be going to mars and back, but he's got the pulse of America in his tweets and well, it's a lot of space he's taking up----pun intended!

  89. We have to thank you, David, those of us tuning in for a daily dose of dubious entertainment and/or disbelief from across the seas and for your fellow citizens for your meticulous and fact-checking reporting on what must be the most phenomenal unstable person in your country's history whom has ever attained the office of the president. Donald J. Trump would probably be put in the same bag as pathological narcissists, but I think that when he takes his oath to the spirit in the sky, he’ll be coined a new label: man of a thousand lies. David Parkman, the posse you have headed and the endangered planet ghost rider who is really a tipping point himself that you have been trailing all of these troubled months will soon be getting a one-way ticket to cleaning the guvnor’s mansion i.e., jail time---if Bragg has done his homework and there is no wiggle-room left for the former President to shuttle off to yet another hopeless rally. Trump's saddest lament should be that he is a man who was given the chance of a lifetime to help his country rise above its intractable social issues, but who instead chose to implode on a self-styled televised political suicide parade for the whole world to experience. Trump will be remembered as a spoiled boy-man who was really a con man and his legacy will be a man who lost in court and ended up losing everything and then lied about that too.

  90. The UFO that was photographed by US Navy jets is a disappointment in that it looks like a piece of junk flying at supersonic speeds. It does not even begin to resemble any sort of craft that flies through the air let alone through outer space. Bizarre that we get to see this uneventful video. Whatever is at the bottom of the UFO phenomenon, I think we are all going to be amazed at first and then deeply dismayed by the excuses they are going to give us on why they have chosen to remain silent for so long. The biggest question is why aliens who have come to earth have played hide n' seek for so long. Can anyone imagine when NASA sends the first intergalactic spaceship to another start system and the captain reports back that they have found a planet with beings resembling us and living in societies across their world, and NASA responds: "Great work Captain Pakman, very discreetly, we want you to send a shuttle down and lay low and do not show yourselves. You can go up to a farm and look in the windows for example, but only until someone screams and then you must run back to the shuttle and get out of there. Do not in any circumstance fly without invisible camouflage and buzz all the military stations where nuclear weapons are stored. Do not in any circumstance try to make contact with the beings."

  91. I am so happy your wife was saved from something that could have been fatal. You were a single parent for a week and I hope you never have to wing it on your own another time. I was a single parent like that except that my wife never recovered and it is very rare for the man to be awarded custody of the child, but that's what happened to me. Suddenly I was on my own with a little girl. To cut a long story short, it was an incredible experience with highs and lows and finished unfortunately with my daughter having to be hospitalized for life. She has an incurable illness and we tried and tried to do everything possible not to have this outcome. As far as regrets, I have got a lot because the most important person in my life was lost in my care. But my message to you David is to make the best out of every day you have with your child and wife (girlfriend) and take a lot of photographs and have the best ones printed.

  92. Mark Levin shows you in America and us around the world that there are many ways to look at what Levin calls the 'Trumped up' Trump charges i.e., indictments against him and if there has been one thing that is good that has come out of former President Trump's legal nightmare, it's that we have seen up close and personal why the legal profession is so important for societies to function. The minute the legal profession gets manhandled and twisted to suit an autocratic ruler like President Putin for instance, nothing makes sense anymore because crimes can be invented on the fly: see Navalny’s (Putin’s political opponent) absurd political trials in Russia sending him away for decades on made-up charges. David, for me, the one thing Mark Levin and millions of Americans like him and most of us around the world show us is that we are living with an outdated mindset that makes us see through stained-glass windows instead of a window pane on the world. Americans and the rest of us need to change our mindset and get back to taking care of our own lives. If Trump has done anything good it is to show us that we are willing to be led by carnival barkers and shifty showmen as long as they keep us entertained.

  93. You are doing your country a great service David. Watching Mr Walker talk his street-talk, American-slang-ish is sad. Here is a good-intentioned, hero-athelete trying to keep doing the right thing for his minority group and his country, except that he's like a an AR rifle firing blanks. No impact; zero comprehension of what he wants to say. This well-intentioned man would not bring touch-downs to the American Senate, he would a loss of dignity and bring shame and embarassment to a nation already suffering from an overload of stress from multifple pressing issues.

  94. This insurrection business is not going to go away any time soon, is it? It's worse than the pandemic that is engulfing America and the world in wave after wave of variants. Don't ask me what is going on in my mind, because taking this in on the far side of the world, all I know is that America's 2020 insurrection is going to become a permanent stain on your nation's history. With an uncanny ability to gather facts that would normally have been impossible to recover a few decades ago, thanks to 24/7 coverage and literally everyone able to film history happening in real time, little by little we see the investigation of the insurrection has unearthed tons of shocking facts---and today's revelations only make one wonder just what was going on in your country's government when former President Trump was calling the shots? This scandal is going to continue to grow and cast a shadow over America for decades to come. I predict President Trump will be able to overcome any charges against him and will walk through any trial with complete impunity. I am sure that in a year's time the insurrection show will be still getting coverage and Trump will still be getting sabers rattling demanding he be charged---but we all know this just ain't the way the ones in charge who wield power operate. The FBI knew there was going to be an insurrection! This makes law enforcement a joke and shows how an American President no matter how corrupt is the one who makes or breaks the law.

  95. We all have to thank Eric Trump for showing us all how important it is to be supportive of our parents. Donald Trump junior shows incredible honor and grace in dogging questions about a possible next President of The United States in cognitive decline. Across the world from you we understand that the former president's upgrade on MAGA to mean MAKE AMERICA GOOFY AGAIN must have Eric and Trump's supporters over the moon in knowing what a new Trump Administration would mean for the most powerful nation on earth.

  96. Dear Mr Pakman, Thanks for a great show David. You're coverage of the election will be thrilling to watch. As someone living in a European country, hospital costs are high here as well, but it is a crime that somebody in your country would have to pay north of 13 hundred dollars for a blood test. We know costs are up, but your bill points to the fact that for any country in the world not to have complete coverage for every citizen is an insult to our humaneness, it is an abomination that our beloved or hated economic system has thrust upon us. Top health care should be guaranteed in some kind of world constitution. No one seems to realize that many people wake up in the morning with 5 dollars being all they have to get through the day, let alone get food or medication or pay their rent or give their kids a school lunch. We're lost as a civilization if we don't ensure everyone having the same rights. By the way, ticks don't walk or fly, they tick... tick... tick and then drill into you to give you their blood test and if successful they leave you with a disease that will cost a fortune to cure. Don't be ticked off, I was joking!

  97. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for your excellent analyses about current affairs. You are right about your opinion on the Fox News Show. I think you could go one further and that is to report on what other television presenters say, for example, and not always say FOX NEWS, FOX NEWS, FOX NEWS says this or that. By pointing out Chris Wallace on another network said this or that, it showcases him and not FOX NEWS. The Mueller report should never have gone to a Trump appointed official. Could you please find out why this happened? Now, no matter what Barr says we can never believe he hasn’t shown Trump and his lawyers the report. Lastly, and to mean no disrespect, buy why is your producer giving us his take on matters as well? It doesn’t make the show stronger. It looks like it must be his show so he’s going to let us know what he thinks about every issue you are talking about because he is running things. It’s an opinion. Keep up the good work!

  98. David, you are a voice of reason in that country of yours. Bill O'Reilly shows that emotional outbursts do not strengthen one's opinion on television or in a bar, on the contrary, when a broadcaster raises his voice and blames the other political party for a nation's woes, he is---in Bill O'Reilley's own pet phrase---off-the-charts. The minute someone raises their voice and starts pointing fingers at imaginary villains i.e. governor's from the wrong political party aka bad guys, you know they are out of truth-bullets and are only blowing hot-air rants. No one, absolutely no one wants to see that the mass shootings underlying causes are in a way a huge red flag about the economic system. Yes; that's right. Capitalism began in 1694 when the Bank of England issued its first bonds. Here we are more than three hundred years later wondering why the world is tumbling down around us. The economic system we all love to hate is the cause of millions of people feeling left out. In the present day, to survive in a country like the United States you have to live in a gated community, because it's dangerous to the point where you need sentries to make sure you make it through the night. But if you're on a middle-class salary, the American dream is only happening in old movies...

  99. You can help Nikii Haley's supporters decide the fate of your nation by showing them that former President Donald John Trump is taking a page out of the LBJ playbook. Let me explain. Way, way back in the early 60s, Lyndon Baines Johnson was the Vice-President and John Fitzgerald Kennedy was President. But trouble was brewing with two of Johnson's former thugs-for-hire, Bobby Baker and Billy Estes. They were going to be arraigned for corruption and other serious charges and Johnson was implicated in their crimes. They were going to tell all to avoid lengthy prison sentences i.e., sing like birds and that meant that Johnson would go to prison himself if they had their day in court. But if Johnson could become president, he could make all of that go away. Well; we all know that is exactly what happened and JFK met a certain fate in Johnson's backyard. Johnson is seen winking to someone on the presidential plane while being sworn in as president with Lady Bird grinning from ear to ear and Jacqui Kennedy breaking down in tears. Truth be told, Johnson became president and Baker and Estes never went to prison. What am I saying here? Trump is running for president on the pretense of making America great again, but in reality, he is running to save himself from getting convicted on at least 4 of the 91 federal indictments against him. He has to win to avoid jail time. His backers are going to cough up the dough to make sure he wins. Trump does not care about making his country great; he wants the world to see himself as the greatest. The 2024 presidential race is going to be getting dirtier and more deadly than any presidential race before it, because if Trump loses, he goes to jail so we know the Kennedy assassination is going to look like shooting ducks in the pond in comparison. Trump has the richest man in the world on the payroll: Elon Musk. Musk likes to win...

  100. Watching this from where I live 2,000 kilometers from Kiev is a breather because the war is raging on and hundreds of soldiers on both sides are dying every day. But I predict that there will be that wonderful thing in American justice where the rich and powerful pull out their magic wand and get high-powered attorneys who know how to read the fine print in your constitution. My prediction is that Trump gets a slap on the wrist and house arrest at his Florida golf course as a maximum penalty.

  101. Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you and your caller for such a pertinent question. Could we also factor in the fact that perhaps the populations of the southern states have a higher vitamin D level per person than that, say, of New York City. And there is also the fact that the Coronavirus also has decimated people of color and latinos who, because their skin absorbs less vitamin D, are more susceptible to contracting the disease. Obesity and general health of the patients also plays an important part. Latest news I have had on the Coronavirus pandemic is that anyone who contracts the disease can count on up to 10 years off of their life if they or course succeed in getting through the illness.

  102. Our world is not a safe place. Human beings have such potential, but in some people there exists a darkness and in that black hell comes the inspiration to do terrible things. Psychiatrists call it mental illness, oridinary people call it madness, but whatever it is there is practically no way of ever being completely safe where ever you are and whoever you are. In America, what is the hardest wake-up call for any nation to bear is that because of the 2nd Amendment, qualified people can buy a firearm. The trouble is of course is that people can buy a gun before they go to that dark place in the mind and decide to get even with the world. It was reported a woman saw a man ready to spray a birthday party with an AR rifle. The fates being on the side of the good guys for once had her being a person who could legally carry a firearm. The shooter was neutralized and many lives undoubtedly saved. This is of course the answer to America's gundemic, but it is being hushed by the media because of course no one wants to see teachers wearing a holster with a gun giving a lesson. No one wants this plague of violence to continue. No one wants to have to carry a firearm. I get it; but the only thing that makes a lot of sense is that by carrying a firearm one can save lives. David, you're doing a great service for your country---and the world.
