  1. Wow, what an honorable young lady. As a senior citizen who’s fought many equality battles over the years, she gives me hope for this country’s future when usually I feel so hopeless. Thank you for this interview.

  2. How anyone could watch this interaction between Craig & this wonderful octopus and not be monumentally changed is unfathomable. Best documentary ever!!! Thanks Christiane for introducing this film to your PBS audience.
    317
  3. Israel is a land where the people are European, the land Palestinian & the tax base American. Thank you for this interview. Ta-nehisi Coates, I love your work! I grew up white in Jim Crow south Louisiana. I saw apartheid first hand. It shaped me to be an activist for civil rights & social justice.
    255
  4. This is such an important subject. Thank you for this reporting. Please keep it up!!
    240
  5. Tax the rich. Raise the cap on social security wages. Add IRS agents to collect unpaid taxes from the wealthiest cheaters.
    227
  6. Apologies to South Africa from a member of sane America!
    218
  7. We do not have free trade. We have oligarchy.
    209
  8. As a Democrat, I’m still trying to come to grips with these never Trumpers who still don’t see their policies brought us to Trump.
    200
  9. Calling Israel a democracy is such a sick joke!
    162
  10. Oh Peggy. When we were kids things were different. It was your hero that destroyed unions & instituted trickle down economics that changed everything.
    148
  11. For a party that you say doesn’t have anything to believe in, they sure have a huge following. Fear & hate sells.
    135
  12. We seldom talk about how theocratic this court is. Decisions are not based on our constitution but rather their biblical interpretation is what’s right or wrong.
    131
  13. I grew up in a narcissistic family. I got out early while my brother & sister were sucked into the tragedy of being unloved but entangled with the narcissist parent. WOW! Was I lucky!!!🦋
    119
  14. Sorry Tom! You’re late to understanding Trump’s danger as a fascist! Glad you finally woke up!
    102
  15. There’s no tolerance for decent?? How about no tolerance for truth, integrity??
    98
  16. One of the great American heroes of our democracy along with Fiona Hill & the capitol police who fought off the 1/6 mob.
    95
  17. Get it! They don’t listen to anyone but Trump. He is their god and the almighty. Understand, they will blow you away if you get in their way. You’re right, there’s nothing rational here.
    85
  18. Time to worry. Who would have thought several years ago it would be conceivable we could go the way of Germany in the ‘30s. Yet it’s totally happening!
    81
  19. Whew! Excellent interview!!! It’s crazy that the Democratic Party doesn’t run younger dynamic candidates. They have them! And retire the rest of the geriatric congress members who are running the party into the ground!
    81
  20. Protecting Wall Street profits is the absolute only thing this administration cares about. Lives don’t matter, white OR black.
    74
  21. Thank you PBS & Christiane Amanpour for bringing us the experts we need to listen to.
    70
  22. When will we ever analyze what policies led us to accepting a narcissistic megalomaniac like Trump as our democracy’s leader.
    69
  23. Tax the rich, including Ray Dalia! There is NO pain in that approach. Only their accountants will notice! Their lifestyle wont change! Notice his stutter when that was mentioned!😂
    68
  24. I think we need to not give cover to Israel’s colonialism, occupation, & human rights violations. Wanting social justice for Palestinians is not anti Semitic.
    67
  25. Married to Mitch, member of the Trump cabinet & watched as he spewed over 30,000 lies, but she wasn’t that close to him? Give me a break! But then she lost me at married to Mitch.🤮
    62
  26. Awesome content - Christiane, you’re the best!
    60
  27. Watching the video clips of our military acting despicably during these last weeks is eye opening. I’m glad I’m old & feel sorry for our children growing up in this hate filled society.
    59
  28. Excellent interview. Many of us outside DC, NY & LA could have shared this information. We live in these communities overtaken with this thinking. It’s scary!!!
    56
  29. We need a reputable survey of senior citizens on how they feel. I’m 77 & I think we need younger leaders to lead us into the future. Age isn’t just a number.
    55
  30. So few white Americans know the true history of our country. Growing up in Jim Crow south Louisiana, I saw the discrimination & suppression first hand. I am ashamed we fail to respect our black brothers & sisters.
    55
  31. The people who make $700 an hour have convinced the people who make $25 an hour that the problem is the people who make $7.50 an hour.
    53
  32. This is absolute insanity that our democracy is being undermined by its own president and casually discussed as if it should just be accepted as normal behavior.
    50
  33. Shameful Republican who takes from the poor & needy to pay for more absurd tax cuts for the rich. This is SICK!
    50
  34. I listen carefully when Christiane Amanpour talks!
    49
  35. We are hurting out here!! Do we really have a wealthy entrepreneur who cares about his fellow citizens and not just his own profits & capital accumulation! If so, thank you for caring.
    49
  36. Stop the welfare system for the rich. Finally tax them. We are creating more wealth for the few at the top and starving the middle and lower classes. Get rid of these destructive deficit producing tax cuts now. And this guy helped crash the economy last time.
    46
  37. Trump, diplomacy?😂 He is a bully. Stand up now or he will go further against you. Stand up to extortion!!!
    45
  38. I don’t know my friend. As someone, white, who grew up during Jim Crow, and tried for so many years to help assist change, I finally gave up and left the south at 63. The ingrained racism is as bad, worse, today. Voter suppression & gerrymandering along with the unwillingness of the DNC to support winning state offices makes living here as a defender of human rights for all impossible. My opinion.
    44
  39. So intelligent, so knowledgeable, so articulate. How do we support her to become a leader of our country? She’s my hero!!!
    43
  40. This emphasizes the danger of book banning.
    43
  41. What does making it illegal mean? It means allowing men to have dominion over a woman’s body! That’s insane in my book!
    41
  42. Great interview. I grew up in Jim Crow south Louisiana. When I saw the republicans rally in Washington after Obama was elected with vile effigies of him, I knew we were going back to our terrible racist past. Trump stoked it and the media ignored it.
    40
  43. OMG - this man looks Asian. Do you really think Trump will trust a “non-white American? He will be the excuse why we don’t already have a test, vaccine & cure. The Narcissist idiot rules.
    38
  44. Excellent guest, great analysis of what’s happening to our democracy with unregulated capitalism. No democracy without social justice. We are fast becoming an oligarchy or a fascist theocracy or both.
    37
  45. Isn’t “in-between the meetings” the same as Sunday morning Christians?
    36
  46. Thank you, I totally agree!
    35
  47. OMG - McMasters, your bias is showing. To say that the Trump campaign was an innocent party in the Russia attempts to assist his election is ludicrous. We saw first hand the meeting in Trump Tower with Junior, Kushner, Manafort and a group of Russians ops to get dirt on Hillary Clinton. We heard Junior say he was elated to get the dirt. Shame on you!!
    35
  48. Oh my! Ben is my new hero. An economist who speaks the truth with knowledge AND integrity. Thank you Amanpour & Co!
    35
  49. Thank you PBS. Thank you Christiane.
    34
  50. Thank you for introducing us to two of Hollywood’s finest. Ron has directed some of the best movies made.
    33
  51. When there’s so little respect for truth & integrity, this had to happen. Geez, we have a failed president who lost his re-election & half this country believes his lie that the election was stolen & may elect him again. Democracy is doomed.
    33
  52. Don’t speak too soon that our democracy has been saved.
    33
  53. You are talking to that is fatigued of helping Ukraine?? No one I have talked with. The US & most of the civilized world is in this for the long haul. Democracy is too important. Putin must be stopped now!
    33
  54. These are the stories we so need today. Thank you Amanpour & Co!
    31
  55. At 77, I’ve never regretted my decision not to have children. Coming from a toxic family I knew I didn’t have the tools to be a good parent. I wish more people would do a self examination of their ability to parent.
    31
  56. This shows exactly why churches should not be tax exempt. They have a self serving agenda just like any other business. And it’s another example of follow the money, not the moral direction.
    31
  57. Jimmy Carter has always been my favorite president. An honorable man, the likes of which we will never again see in leadership of our country.
    31
  58. This is what patriotism looks like. Thank you Officer Dunn for all your words today & your actions on 1/6.
    30
  59. Hey Niall, you had a sense in January? But ego or vanity kept you from keeping your mask on as you flew? Yes! You were one of the original superspreaders!
    29
  60. The religious right is too important a political block for them to go any slower. 3 radical religious justices changed America forever. We are now a fascist theocracy in the making.
    29
  61. Excellent interview! I grew up in Jim Crow south. Segregation was awful! It’s still going on!
    28
  62. This is insanity. This has become a soulless country.
    28
  63. Great interview. Love Christiane. A true journalist among a lot of high paid entertainers. We are so lucky to have her on PBS.
    27
  64. Thank you Christiane for another great and much needed program.
    27
  65. And what have conservatives done to fight the injustices of racism??
    26
  66. Interesting you didn’t ask her opinion of her chosen party’s swing toward the anti-gay agenda. Pretty interesting to stay with a party that thinks you’re abnormal.
    26
  67. This Supreme Court has lost all credibility!
    26
  68. It’s not about uncomfortable, it’s about protecting white kids from knowing the truth of our history! I as a white person who grew up in Jim Crow south Louisiana, I do feel guilty! It makes me want to correct & atone for what my race did. That’s learning from history!
    26
  69. Secretary Pete is not only eloquent but detailed in his explanation. I’m so proud of his service to our country.
    25
  70. Wow. Just wow! The injustice in America is mind boggling. But this judge shows that true integrity & honor is far from dead. 🥲
    25
  71. Thank you for this thoughtful interview. We Democrats are use to being called vile names by Trump but what he said about John McCain, things never refuted by his fellow Republicans was so damning for me. That truly showed me their depravity.
    24
  72. Sorry we have to wade thru the sick people commenting on Amanpour videos. My heart breaks for all the kids growing up in this world dominated by hate.
    24
  73. We must rid ourselves of the increasing oligarchy that relies on a permanent underclass to support their wealth & power. Start with taxation equity.
    24
  74. CEOs today will never go back to sharing the corporate wealth with workers & the public good. Their share has just increased to $641 to $1. Greed will win, ethics will lose.
    24
  75. Make no mistake. Mitch McConnell made this happen.
    23
  76. She is so in touch with what is really happening! Excellent advise!!
    22
  77. Wow! That last segment cleared up so much for me. Thank you for bringing this gentleman to us. Very informative.
    22
  78. I believe the US began its spiral to the current extreme inequality with Reagan saying that government is the problem which half the country bought into and Citizens United which allowed unlimited money in politics.
    22
  79. Jimmy Carter-my favorite president. Many hostages were killed during those times. Those guys got home alive. And it would have been earlier if Reagan had not made a back room deal.
    22
  80. I’m always wishing main stream media was covering this like PBS does! Thank you
    22
  81. Forget the political price some might pay. We, the country, will pay for all his supporters who truly believe the election was stolen. Around the country, they are not done with this election. They want Trump to run this country. Scary times ahead.
    22
  82. Your guest did not lose rights recently like half the population did with these religious zealots on the Supreme Court. Add that to this conversation.
    21
  83. Can you imagine if the world was actually seeing & reacting to what the Palestinians are enduring in the occupied territories? Atrocities are the same no matter who is committing them. Thank goodness the world is awake for Ukraine.
    21
  84. Jamie Dimon is the absolute definition of an anti-christ. He doesn’t want a “decent” society. His bible is greed.
    21
  85. I’m pretty sure they gave him an AR15 semi automatic - just what Jesus taught about loving your neighbor. Religion is a money making con.
    20
  86. Tina is being too harsh on the Sussexes I think. Harry had a very close relationship with his mother. She showed him a kind of love that the Royal family do not have & he wanted. Glad he got away. Best to them!
    20
  87. What a great & needed interview. Amanpour & Co., well done again! Lisa, it was the warrior in you that brought you through those events. Well done sister!💪
    19
  88. I hope Blinken hears “Why aren’t you in The Hague?” ringing in his ears for the rest of his life.
    19
  89. Sorry, I no longer believe he isn’t on either side. His racism and white supremacy leanings are in full view and escalating as he gets cornered.
    18
  90. OMG - what a bag of absurdity. I’m a senior, a life long bleeding heart. This kind of labeling is the very way the right wing likes to control the messaging. Never used latinx ever, never professed to defund the police, never professed or known anyone I know to profess to be a socialist. This is what happens when marketing rules instead of principles.
    18
  91. We are very close to being a fascist theocracy. This radically religious Supreme Court has many years on the bench to accomplish & fine tune it.
    18
  92. OMG - most grocery chains have a department that promotes locally sourced. So you have the foundation to build on. It’s just the inefficient, ineffective middlemen milking the system. They are the lobbyists for not making the necessary changes. Get rid of them & pay the workers who are the real assets.
    18
  93. Close to half the states have a minimum wage of $7.25 for the lucky people even working. That is insanity. What a heartless group of politicians we have. Shameful.
    17
  94. I just lost ANY respect for hm with his response to the comparison question between Trump’s Ukraine call with Obama. His sleaze value went off the chart!!! What does he believe in???
    17
  95. My brother, TX ER doc said the same thing to me. I’ve idolized his ability to be calm in the most dire situations. Trump & his minions are going to get more killed. Sarah Palin’s death panels come out of incubation!
    17
  96. What an indictment of our society. This will only get worse since all attempts to rein in this corporate welfare system will be taken to our new immoral Supreme Court. We should be ashamed. I am.
    17
  97. Lovely to watch everyone try to pick up the pieces of Trump’s insane mouth grenades. What a way to run a country.
    17
  98. This is absolutely the most absurd conversation I’ve heard on Amanpour & Co regarding Israel & Gaza. US showing leadership? You people have lost all semblance of humanity.
    17
  99. Who’s buying those new houses? Investors & Wall Street. Then renting them out at inflated rents. Those really needing rental relief don’t benefit!
    17
  100. This scam is small potatoes compared to the scale of the Trump family scams of Covid vaccine funds to come.
    16
  101. Corruption rules the US. Very sad and deadly to our democracy.
    16
  102. Thank you for giving us this important information.
    16
  103. He makes me proud to be a thinking atheist. This man sent shivers down my spine.
    15
  104. Remember that if any of these laws are challenged & get to the Supreme Court guess who will prevail? This is shameful!
    15
  105. Great interview.
    15
  106. Wow!!! Excellent! Short and distinct analysis. And quite scary for our future. Once again Christiane & group, you have outdone yourselves.
    15
  107. Wow. I bought myself a pulse oximeter April 2020 and have used it daily since. Amazed that it’s not a standard method to monitor for symptoms of Covid.
    15
  108. During a time when it’s lacking for me, she represents hope, just like Greta.
    14
  109. Everything is a prop for Trump. He has no principles, no compassion and the only feeling he has are for himself and his pocketbook. He is one evil human being. People who tolerate & excuse him are complacent in the destruction of America.
    14
  110. Welcome to the world according to Donald Trump. No honesty, no integrity, no rule of law. This is shameful but we saw it coming when the world accepted Trump as if he was a legitimate leader. Much easier for others to follow.
    13
  111. The premise of the interview is incorrect in my view. Don’t lump the US stance with the rest of the world. Many countries are seeing it as a global problem unlike our ignorant leader who, as usual, sees it as the US vs them (the rest of the world). Trump has no value system beyond “everything for me”.
    13
  112. Thank you for this interview. I always wondered how friends I had in the 60’s in college, free thinkers I thought, have over the years become more bigoted to a feverish point in the last 3 yrs. Now I’m getting it. Racism has been normalized and given validation, by this administration.
    13
  113. I use to go to conferences in Caracas. We are responsible for their desperation with our policies. Same with Cuba. Both countries have awesome people who want to stay in-country. But we’ve destroyed their economies with our blockades!
    13
  114. It seems to me there’s plenty of blame to be spread around and throwing insults and accusations until an INDEPENDENT investigation can be completed at the appropriate time is wasteful and very destructive. Let’s get through this together with honesty & good science based data.
    13
  115.  @yogaflirt7  its definitely not just blue collar. As expressed in this interview, our white collar professionals & retirees are full in on this white supremacy thinking.
    13
  116. I never understood why my parents stayed together. I tried marriage, putting the first thru law school before divorcing him & the second thru his midlife crisis until he cleaned me out. Been single for over 40 yrs, never been lonely. I say have awesome friends!
    13
  117. Israel & ethical in the same sentence. 😂😂😂😂😂
    12
  118. Can you interview other economists besides Larry summers?? Please!
    12
  119. YES!!!!!!! 👏👏💕🦋💕
    12
  120. We have complete mail in voting. BUT, we also have secure drop boxes if you don’t trust the post office. Then, you can call the county election office and verify your ballot was received & counted.
    11
  121. Yep! Integrity personified. I worry these true patriots aren’t being replaced with like kind.
    11
  122. Not one reason he said he’s a Republican is embraced by that party.
    11
  123. This video was played on 1/6/21. Trump was not running for office. It was not a campaign ad. This is f**kin’ scary.
    10
  124. If evangelicalism is about the personal relationship between a person & Jesus, why are they all so determined to get into everyone’s bedroom?
    10
  125. What a lovely interview with a truly lovely, real person. Thank you Amanpour & Co.
    10
  126. Israel wants to live in the past, not the present that we are seeing now. Is it right that we use the past to excuse the present? Not for me at least!
    10
  127. Big Red - who cares when he said it. It’s worse that we haven’t improved!
    9
  128. What a profound and touching story. Thank you for finding and sharing it with us.
    9
  129. Pompeo said religious rights super-cede other human rights. That gives governments the right to discriminate, not respect, the rights of others. Shameful.
    9
  130. We’ve never questioned the integrity of the election process in recent times. Even in 2000, what was questioned was a ballot design flaw causing the problem. Trump by the power given him by an unquestioning media as to the validity of his words has created the situation now where one half the country now believes the election was actually rigged. How we will come out of this is a big question mark in my mind.
    9
  131. My Republican neighbors now call me a communist. It is easier to hate than to accept those who think differently.
    9
  132. This shows the sad state of our country. Full display. He forgets we had a fully functioning agreement with Iran to stop any nuclear weapons in that country. What we’ve done is only to hurt the Iranian people who showed us no ill will. Please put a foot note on guests like this who try to promote war mongering instead of peace.
    9
  133. Sounds like groveling for Trump, a Republican politician more than an educator. Institutional neutrality?😂😂😂😂😂
    9
  134. Religions, especially fundamentalist ones, depend on patriarchy. Evangelical women totally buy into this. They do not know the concept of questioning god or the Bible.
    9
  135. Geez Mark - you sit in your absolute ivory tower and say that the government gets the best advice w the best data and should share it with the public. His constituents are mimicking what Trump is SAYING, not what the advice of the WH, CDC or any science based organization is putting out there. Get it?? They only listen to god, aka Trump’s words. Get REAL!
    9
  136. There is no such thing as great health care in this country, based on monetary reward to insurance companies. But hospice is the best we do until we have universal Compassion & Choices in end of life. We’ll all be there someday.
    9
  137. There was no doubt in my mind that this could and probably would happen. And haven’t seen the worst of it. We have a young hand picked Supreme Court on its way to making us a fascist theocracy.
    8
  138. I found myself brought to tears from the loveliness of this young man. I took away from him to see the value in every person without judgement. I hope I remember that lesson.
    8
  139. The cult of Trump is their information. Trump & his state TV, Fox. Shameful.
    8
  140. Trump just breaks open the Christian religion fallacy that Gandhi noticed when he said - I like your Christ. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.
    8
  141. I love that - uncomfortable truths. Thank you-
    8
  142. Just please don’t become a corporate Democrat & sell out your core beliefs.
    7
  143. There’s a big difference between these retired officers & the rank & file men & women. Most of us who don’t back Trump fear if he loses the election he will call up military, police & bikers to disrupt civil society.
    7
  144. Oversight of Trump & Co - 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
    7
  145.  @amber40494  again, I reintegrate - look at what the state legislature did. Censured those who voted for impeachment - they run the state.
    7
  146. So agree with you!!
    7
  147. I’d t that what the settlers are doing in the occupied territories?
    7
  148. You are sick!
    7
  149. Mixed messaging can potentially be a problem?? IT IS causing the increase in cases & loss of life. But Trump’s message is clear. Lives be damn! Stock market rise is ALL that matters. They are shameful. Too many listen ONLY to Trump.
    7
  150. Those of us that have ER doctors & other heroes on the front line in our families know they are scared. They are reusing PPE and having to greatly restrict testing. Why is Trump being allowed to lie in front of us every day?? Shameful!!
    7
  151. Trump & guard rails? 😂😂😂 I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more absurd conversation.
    7
  152. My thoughts exactly!
    7
  153. Guess what Sally, we could be a part of a world response instead of forcing each of 50 states fighting to get equipment, testing and PPE. You are ignoring that Trump doesn’t care about a United States, he cares about personal wealth & the next election. You are being duped for excusing his incompetence.
    7
  154. Wow! He pulled me in. I’ll be watching. Well, I maybe won’t get thru the segment on guns, but I’ll try.
    7
  155. Thank you!! Why he is the only economist Christiane & Ian Bremmer have on is soooo discouraging!!! He works for the 1%, not the working people.
    6
  156. Well said. Thank you.
    6
  157. Ted - shame on you! You weight the consequences on lives in the Dreamers case but ignore the consequences to our democracy in Citizens United.
    6
  158. Beware. What she is describing looks to fit into what this Supreme Court would class as not having protected rights.
    6
  159. The US has NEVER been a legitimate mediator in the peace process. They have assisted in Israel’s take over of Palestinian lands. Shameful.
    6
  160. There is no justice until that police officer is convicted and in prison.
    6
  161. Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing.
    6
  162. If it was dangerous we wouldn’t be doing it. No more absurd statement could be said. Another old white man stuck in the past. A perfect spokesman for an increasingly unhealthy planet.
    6
  163.  @5thGenNativeTexan My taxes went up as well. Anyone who says we are lying, you are misinformed!
    6
  164. Insanity rules in the guise of corruption and imperialism by Israel. Shameful!
    6
  165. I’ve truly never seen such cold, empty eyes. He will be remembered for his genocide.
    6
  166. Spoken by someone who probably makes more than the limit for a stimulus check. Loved it, hold the money to later, keep the business closed and just open it later. Easy peasy. 😂😂
    6
  167. And it was Gov George W Bush who opened the southern border wide open to cheap Mexican labor. That’s why so many who have been here 20 to 30 yrs are now being rounded up with families disrupted. Shameful that GW isn’t fessing up to his major role in this travesty.
    5
  168. Was this interview absurd or what?? I was going to say a waste of time but really we just learned someone else that has sold out his integrity. Maybe he never had it. He did give classified documents to his mistress for personal financial gain.
    5
  169.  @emilyfrench6839  thanks! But I wasn’t saying dissent. I meant decent (respectable, moral behavior) but I get what you’re saying🦋
    5
  170. Right now, I want to be Emily Ramshaw when I grow up. I’m 74.
    5
  171. Once again, thank you Christiane & PBS.
    5
  172. Yes, the Democrats have moved so radically left as to want reasonable health care for all Americans like every other industrialized country and a fair wage for all like every other industrialized country and a fair tax system that doesn’t rob the middle class to create the largest wealth gap in the industrialized world. Those radical ideas?

  185. Wow. Amazing seeing the impressive difference in the quality of people surrounding this new administration.
    4
  186. This is insanity!! Most hospitals in US are owned by the Catholic Church. This Supreme Court has doomed women to Gilead for years to come.

  187. But then it’s the people who elect those in office.
    4
  188. So now what was it you and Trump won in North Korea? Man, you guys sure like patting yourselves on the back forgetting that the world goes on. It’s not a reality show.
    4
  189. What are his policy values?
    4
  190. She sure seems to build walls instead of bridges. Is she rejecting all us whites people who have been marching for black lives matter day after day, month after month, until we can get definitive action? Hope she’s not speaking for my black female friends!

  201. I understand you are trying to keep your job being the voice of reason in this insanity. But you are skirting the line of useful information when you don’t call out the overabundance of ignoring the mask and social distancing of the current partying crowds, including camps, especially in these southern states. People travel!!!

  218. He fails to credit Trump’s blatant and constant lies, echoed by FOX, about governmental institutions and the press as profoundly effecting this crisis of confidence. Typical of conservative coverups following Trump lies.

    3
  231. Why can’t they do research on the many people who were quarantined on those huge liners and come to some conclusions? Seems a good sample size.
    3
  232. I am disappointed in Walter Isaacson’s reporting recently. Not PBS quality. He doesn’t do in-depth interviews. He needs to go back to writing books where he has time to research his subjects.

  234. This is modern day Barbara Jordan! Lady, you are awesome!

  235. Vibrant Christianity in Africa emerging? They are killing people who are homosexual. Is that in Jesus’s teachings? I’ll stick with religion being the oldest grift on earth.
    2
  236. Let’s see. Science is always seeking discovery. Religion not. Religion is the oldest grift on earth, seeking power & money from suckers. He is the first scientist that thought every experiment was suppose the bring positive results.
    2
  237. Smaller communities are mostly run by “good old boys”. As she noted people do not always get involved & vote for local leadership who will address these issues.

  240. Guess you don’t consider the lives, including a number of little children, lost from the federal building bombing in Oklahoma City valuable. Or those who died in Las Vegas or El Paso. Shame on your willful ignorance.
    2
  241. Hari is a well respected member of the Amanpour & Co team. I’m actually offended at even comparing him to Tucker.
    2
  242. I’ve never seen a more absurd look at the changing America. The center Republicans will save us? OMG. Shame on you.
    2
  243. I remember when Trump said there were good people on both sides in Charlottesville. And we have never had such economic disparity or as many homeless & food insecure. But thank you Christiane for exposing another shameful Republican who has worked for the wealthy only.
    2
  244. You forget, they are not refugees. This is their homeland!!! Israel is the colonial invaders!
    2
  245. The west, especially the U.S. taxpayers, must stop funding this carnage.
    2
  246. Netanyahu is just following his pal Trump’s game plan. No principles, no integrity, just power grabs.
    2
  247. Same story and we are scared. Trump has incited millions to believe his lie that the election was stolen. Sedition
    2
  248.  @DennisMoore664 but it’s not healthy for truth & democracy to give them inordinate power as they have.
    2
  249. Thank you for bringing up our young extremist Supreme Court, contra to the beliefs of most Americans. They are bringing a fascist theocracy aligned with oligarchs that benefit from them.
    2
  250. Why is the world letting Israel rule the Middle East ? Is there no one with a backbone to stop this murderous psychopath?

    2
  255. In a sad way, it’s most appropriate that we are restricted from enjoying the natural world we are suppose to be celebrating. What we have done to this planet and the life forms we share it with is unconscionable yet sadly will continue unabated. It truly is a mad mad world. 😷😭
    2
  256. I love Michele’s interviews!

    2
  258. Awesome segment!!! Thanks Amanpour & Co. PBS is so lucky to have you!
    2
  259. We were heartened to see Biden list climate change in the 4 major policy priorities. Then the DNC removed from the platform the opposition to fossil fuel subsidies, SUBSIDIES!!! This corporate run organization is destroying the future of our party and helping to re-elect Trump, who is destroying our democracy. Progressives will not vote for a continuation of this move toward oligarchy, especially if it is supported by our party.
    2
  260. As usual, excellent interview. So much new and useful information. Again, thanks Christiane & crew!
    2
  261. Who says Israel is not a colonial power? His family have been on they’re land for 800 yrs! Wonder how long their Jewish neighbors have been on their land?
    2
  262. Elissa is just one of our remarkable Democratic congress members. Nancy needs to go help her 82 yr old husband heal!
    2
  263. There are NOT two conflicts. There is an illegal occupation of all Palestinian Territories.
    2
  264. 20 yrs of training a country to run itself is not enough??
    2
  265.  @romulus_  yes, sadly you’re right😢
    2
  266. NBF1865 - not really. Had you thought about joining the group trying to kidnap the Michigan governor & overthrow the govt?
    2
  267. Holy smokes! You are absurd!
    2
  268. If Biden loses the election to a narcissistic megalomaniac, it will be because he is supporting a genocide by Israel.
    2
  269.  @sowhateveritis  thanks my fear too.
    2
  270. He’s had the same problem in the past when confronting complex issues requiring depth of skill.
    2
  271. Only US, with its tax system that doesn’t fund its own people but funds its military instead, can afford to fund this war.
    1
  272. Wow!!!! Sad, it did no good.

  273. Fascist Christians now run our country, ruled by hate & power. A little late in the game to say “Oops”!

  283. We can drown ourselves if we don’t have our own life jackets on or if we hand over our own life jacket. The result can easily be that we all drown.
    1
  284. Until the taxing structure is changed to be fair to other than the wealthy & corporate elites, the democrats will continue to drain its core constituencies.
    1
  285. Please understand that much of the US gets their news from Fox. They will NOT watch the 1/6 coverage. They believe only Trump & we democrats are communists. And they are not fringe, but mainstream!!
    1
  286. You are five minutes too late I think. Netanyahu said he is still on track to annex the West Bank. Be honest, you are a colonial power funded by Trump’s US. Otherwise you would have to be fair with the Palestinians which seems unacceptable to you.
    1
  287. Wait. Doesn’t his boss Netanyahu want to go to war with Iran?
    1
  288. Until the Republican party wakes up to the religious takeover who think god ordained Trump, this secular democracy is doomed. I’m not holding my breath.
    1
  289. Thank you for this excellent & informative segment.
    1
  290. You definitely don’t know the history of recessions. Read things other than propaganda. Democrats pay for their spending. Republicans don’t!!
    1
  291. Theocratic regimes are by nature authoritarian & patriarchal. Until the country decides to live in the 21st century based on a productive economy, nothing will change.
    1
  292. I would ask the same question of Israel. Do the Palestinians have a right to their lands?
    1
  293. Get off Twitter! If that where you’re getting your thought process, You’re are being fed by the crazies. 🤫 they don’t read books.
    1
  294. We should not be judging the health of our black communities by the exceptions but rather by the norms. Being brought up in the south white is to be privileged. Being black is the opposite. It is shameful.
    1
  295. And yet even today the Republicans in Congress in concert with the president are still saying the interference as & is a hoax & want to investigate Biden and Hillary Clinton. This democracy is doomed.
    1
  296. With a Supreme Court running our country, with 6 fundamentalist Catholics, democracy is doomed. We are soon to be classified as a fascist theocracy.
    1
  297. Next government troops to interview should be those that were brought into our cities, like Portland OR, to quell protests. Never did figure out who they all were and who other than Trump was in charge of them.
    1
  298. Trump, Netanyahu & Putin. The three amigos destroying democracy & any rule of law.

  299. Sadly, women in the US are entering a lost generation as well.

  300.  @ASMRyouVEGANyet  you are so right! I’ve corrected that error.
    1
  301. When will the U.S. taxpayers get tired of funding Israel’s illegal occupations instead of funding programs for its own citizens?
    1
  302. Social media is invading the very core of our communities. It’s not any periphery.
    1
  303. Thank you for this enlightening interview.
    1
  304. Get away from the coasts. Most republicans, especially in smaller communities, do NOT believe in climate change. Their news sources preach against it.
    1
  305. What are the issues that are radical left?
    1
  306. Isn’t it funny how conservatives use the words of black intellectuals while diminishing their culture’s value to our country’s history. This guy is pathetic in my estimation by just his amount of BS.
    1
  307. No film, no protest, no vote in November will undo the destruction of a woman’s right to her body that we are going to lose with the confirmation of this Supreme Court associate justice. The war against women has been won.
    1
  308. The impeachment may not have taken down the criminal Trump, but it gave us Lt Col Vindman & Fiona Hill. Thank goodness for these protecters of our Democracy!!
    1
  309. Gerrymandering came to Texas when President Johnson passed Voting & Equal Rights legislation. It was later supercharged by Tom Delay, a corrupt (convicted!) Republican congressman.
    1
  310. I’m still not understanding who the shark is. She seems to dismiss that the Dems are trying to make people accountable for the attempted coup.
    1
  311. Still can’t understand why Palestinians need to be settled. They have their own land that the U.S. & Israel are destroying against international law!
    1
  312. I don’t know. Since Trump & the cult of Trump, our town halls & school board meetings have been intolerable. The hostility of these people toward liberals is palpable.
    1
  313. The right, including evangelicals, don’t care. Period!
    1
  314. I can see the censor of the truth about Gaza has infected your feed too. You wouldn’t know there are Palestinian deaths in Gaza with the US mainstream media coverage. AIPAC fangs are destructive.

  315. We are allowing our boys to grow up with no intellectual interest! I see that in every socioeconomic class.

  322. Why are we asking democrats this question? Seems more appropriate to ask the republicans?
    1
  323. Geez! People who get in Trump’s way have body guards & their lives destroyed, yet he just might be this country’s next president. This is a democracy???
    1
  324. Bad move! Corporate democrats in control as usual. Plan on losing more rights & young voters continuing on this path!
    1
  325. When your constituents believe the earth is 6,000 yrs old and doesn’t believe in science, this is what you get. No need for education. Ignorance rules.
    1
  326. What was the fraud that the republicans are talking about in the 2020 election?? No one says!
    1
  327. Memo Padilla - stop worshiping Trump and believing he can do no wrong . It’s the policy we are talking about. Whether its Obama or Trump - it’s wrong.
    1
  328. What happened in my world was the hijack of truth & facts by a cult of FOX led vicious propaganda. My ER doctor brother went from a hero to a pariah in his community.

  329. This is crazy to ask one country to fend off Russian aggression! Either let Russia win or bring Ukraine into NATO & stop Russia!

  330. If it doesn’t benefit the fossil fuel industry, Manchin doesn’t care. He a soulless sleaze.
    1
  331. Anti fossil fuel movement??? How about save the planet movement!! This guy is a bought & paid for hack.
    1
  332. Actually our invasion of the country instead of going after Bin Laden was the mistake!
    1
  333. He needs to deal with immigration & be honest about his son, NOW. And age doesn’t necessarily bring wisdom!! Look at Trump!
    1
  334. We should believe facts & we have none yet! Unless we get China to cooperate, we will not get facts. A story is a story. It is not evidence. This is absurd! This guy is a geopolitical commentator!
    1
  335. The problem is with Trump & the Republicans, it’s talk only to get the votes but it’s the democrats that champion the policies for the working class.
    1
  336. Well said!!!
    1
  337. Yep, just invade sovereign nations & keep the spoils of that violent intrusion?
    1
  338. She is absolutely correct in her analysis is the hypocrisy of the west. We must all fight for human rights for ALL. No justice, no peace.
    1
  339. Let’s see. Vietnam, Iraq & Afghanistan. And that doesn’t include the proxy wars it’s instigated. Real peace?
    1
  340. It’s happening in my community. Wealthy corporations are buying up local papers & TV stations, dominating the media, running propaganda pieces on several owned stations in the same market, flooding coverage. Shameful. Thanks deregulation!
    1
  341. Keep your religion to yourself! And stay out of my body!
    1
  342. Israel may not be an ally of the U.S. but Bib is an ally of Trump. Both are authoritarian with fascist leanings.
    1
  343. The DNC a relic of past failures? These leaders do not even understand the future. They are allowing the republicans to determine our country’s future.
    1
  344. Trump was nasty to Europe & NATO. I found that shameful. They have been our friends & allies, terms Trump doesn’t understand. He understands ego like Putin.
    1
  345. And yet the US provides the funds to Israel so they can give universal health care to all Israelis.
    1
  346. As long as AIPAC is around, Israel will control the United States. Sad!

    1
  352. Sad that he reflects most that leave WH & congress. Capitalism, aka plutocracy. Sad to see. Hope we all realize how even Obama WH sold out. He’s telling us to believe him, not amazon workers.

  353. I use to respect you, but this is BS! Settle why originalists are fine with weapons of war on our streets when they weren’t invented in the 1700s.
    1
  354. The U.S. is now a fully funding arm of Israel.
    1
  355. It is heartbreaking that the US administration & major media are hiding from us what is really going on. Why do we allow Israel to block news coverage of this war? What are we hiding??
    1
  356. He is so lucky to live where working together is viable. Our mayor is suppose to be a non partisan office but MAGA runs the town with its hate & exclusion.
    1
  357. Great interview -
    1
  358. The U.S. & Biden are being run by AIPAC & Netanyahu, a criminal, with no desire for peace & does not respect Palestinian life.
    1
  359. OMG! By your definition Israel under Netanyahu is a fascist state.
    1
  360.  @gorkyd7912  it’s not about the members’ beliefs or actions. It’s the organization’s agenda, as I already pointed out!

  364. TX was gerrymandered by Tom Delay destroying its democracy.
    1
  365. This shows what a grift religion really is. It’s about power & control, not goodness.
    1
  366. Anyone who grew up in the Jim Crow south knows the discrimination that blacks endured & still endure because of the cultural white supremacy engrained in the culture.
    1
  367. It’s laughable to see one of their own go too far in the most corrupt state government in the US. The citizens of TX are hostages of these sleazy people; have been for years.
    1
  368. Guess David hasn’t noticed the republicans are in total lock step with Trump & his conspiracy theories. Not quite amenable to working with what they classify us as - communist pedofiles. This “radical left” wants what every other major industrial country has, affordable healthcare, fair wages & a fair tax system. Silly, huh. Real radical, huh?
    1
  369. And you think gun licenses are hard? What state do you live in? By the way, good diversion from voter suppression.

  373. They are controlled by the Federalist Society’s deep, deep pockets. No shame, no morals.
    1
  374. I have not heard the definition for a liberal in comparison to her definition of a conservative. Every policy espoused by these “real conservatives” is a progressive value.
    1
  375. It breaks my heart that our democracy is being highjacked by Christian nationalists who see only white men should have authority. We should celebrate diversity of colors & cultures.

  383.  @tommyw.7855  hate to tell you, I’m far from the poor house. I just believe those who have should pay their fair share of taxes, which I gladly do! No one should be poor because the system squeezes them not the rich!
    1
  384. Very disappointing interview. Definitely not up to your regular high standard of getting to the truth. Look at the interview of Glantz and tell me the difference! Shameful giveaway not worthy of your normal reporting!
