I'm super jealous over here, Harvey, but we appreciate you checking and taking a little time out of your vacation slash work holiday.
I know you're giving a speech next week.
We'll talk about that perhaps a little bit as well.
However, you want to start with, with the, the tweeting
the truthy social message coming out of the White House, specifically Donald Trump on Saturday, according to the New York Times, posted a social media single sentence that appears to encapsulate his attitude as he tests the nation's legal and constitutional boundaries in the process of upending the federal government and punishing his perceived enemies.
The one sentence, quote, he who saves his country does not violate any law.
First showed up on his true social then on X and then by late afternoon he pinned the statement to the top of his speed You gotta make sure you got to see that and then the official White House account on X posted his message in the evening The quote is a variation of one sometimes attributed to Napoleon Bonaparte, although its origin is unclear.
Let's assume it's Napoleon Harvey
Historically speaking, what's your interpretation of what Donald Trump is saying?
Right to the heart of the matter.
All right, let's do this.
Okay.
Donald Trump is signaling that he may at some point, I don't know how soon, find a way to suspend the Constitution.
I think that's what he's signaling.
And I that's heavy.
I know.
Yeah.
Come on.
I mean, look, the fact is that he doesn't know how the Supreme Court is going to respond to the suits that will make their way up to the up to the court.
Yeah.
Now he can assume he can assume that he's going to be in good shape because they basically licensed
the president, you know, during the term to do almost anything practically, right?
I mean, their decision that absolved him of the kinds of prosecutions that if the Democrats had been shopping about it would have pursued earlier.
Having said that, the fact is that he's not going to want it in the first year.
He's not going to want to suffer.
massive embarrassment.
You know, seriously speaking, I have this feeling that he would love to see some, I mean this sincerely, that he would love to see massive, massive protests on the scale of the Black Lives Matter protests after the killing of George Floyd in Minnesota, because he would love to be able to declare some kind of state of emergency.
I mean, he's clearly out to do in law.
I mean, he doesn't care, he doesn't know anything about it, and he doesn't care.
And Elon Musk is acting as if the law doesn't exist.
So, you know, they're pushing, they're pushing me out.
Look, I mean, I know that's heavy.
On Presidents, on Presidents Day, unless on Presidents Day.
But, but I've had to confront that possibility because otherwise why would one say basically that why would he say that he stands that whatever he's going to do he's going to rationalize whatever he does is saving the nation because it's going to make America great again.
So how does he, how does he, how does he present it?
He presented his, you know, if you save the nation, you're not breaking any laws.
Well, but
The pictures of everyone like those Republicans and MAGA types surrounding him who are bowing to him basically, that makes him out to be in quotes, savior.
Okay.
Jesus saved him.
to save America, that kind of thing.
So look, I mean, that's the take that I've come to.
For days, I found ways of joking in my head about it, but I think it's pretty serious.
And anyhow, so the fact is that let us hope that the courts are not bowing to him in the same way that, you know, those images in the pictures have Republicans and MAGA types doing it.
So I must have that.
I didn't mean to smack
Folks, you're listening to the Dom Salvi show.
That's Harvey K. smack me in the head.
Professor emeritus of a democracy at the University of Wisconsin, Green Bay.
I got a couple of reactions to that.
Not only do I, I guess I agree it in.
Smaller terms to that but I also think it's a it's more of a stand back and stand by or at least as much as a stand back or stand by as before because if if you if one of his mega supporters one of the J6's were you know in the course of Trying to quote unquote save the country.
However, that is defined Violate the law.
Well, he's just gonna pardon them right as it seems to me to be more of that thing more of a Call to arms call to the troops
them on stand back and stand by.
But I gotta have a question on the legal thing that the U.S.
Supreme Court allowed for Donald Trump to not be prosecuted for quote unquote crimes.
He can't do it while he's, you know, as president.
But what about the effect of what he's trying to do?
For example, he wants to get rid of some of these these IGs, right?
And some of these folks are there because of
legislative law.
And I think these are some of the cases that are going to go forward.
Now, he can order them.
He can make orders, but they can be found to be unconstitutional or even illegal that he may not be prosecuted for.
But that doesn't mean that the actions that he ordered continue to go forward.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
Well, I mean, he's, he's as president, he can write whatever executive orders he wants.
So the question is, to what extent those will stand?
Okay, and basically as my understanding they are in what's the word that I don't I don't know the legal term is but like in Contravention something like that to what the law set says.
Yeah, okay How inspected generals are pointed the grounds upon which they can be dismissed which he completely ignored Okay, because he didn't have any kind of evidence malfeasance or other any other activity so
But I will also say this, let's put it in another context for a moment, because you're saying he's telling the worst of the Mogatais to stand by, be prepared kind of stuff.
But it's also the case that the Democrats are, right now, I don't know where they are.
They're like wall flowers in the political scene right now.
And not unlikely, he just wants to put fear into the hearts and minds of
liberals and progressives.
Okay.
And because imagine this, you want to cross Donald Trump?
Do you want to be the one to cross Donald Trump?
I mean, to my mind, of course we do.
But I have yet to really get a sense that the folks like Schumer and Jeffries are rallying troops for the sake of turning them out in any way.
Okay.
So anyhow, I mean, I'm looking forward to perhaps seeing, look, state, state attorneys general folks, they fought him last time.
Okay.
And as I think I've said, my daughter was herself involved by way of her positions, state of New York attorney general's office.
Part of that this time, there'll be a lot, a lot of suits coming forward.
And the, which it'll be a matter of time before, you know, the suits come.
Although, you know, so far the judges are probably our best defense.
I mean, it's amazingly so.
I mean, look, I'm going all over the place here because it just dawns on me, of course.
In New York City, the people that he's fired or compelled to resign, you might say, okay, those folks are conservative.
I mean, they weren't liberal.
They weren't even, they were nowhere near progressive.
In fact,
Did they owe their positions in any way to his appointing them?
I think it was one of them.
I mean in that sense we can I mean it is wild and it makes one laugh at the irony of all that But it's also the case that it's it's he's he's threatening.
I see I can't I don't know even the guy the one person who didn't resign the one person One person who didn't resign of course did so did so because they needed somebody
to do what was inevitable.
Send it to the court.
Yep.
And US Attorney Hagan, Scotton, uh, conservatives that have, that have resigned and she kind of lit them up on her way out the door, uh, specifically talking about Beauvais and only quote here.
Although Mr. Beauvais just claimed any intention to exchange leniency in this case.
for the mayor, Adams assistants and enforcing federal law.
This is the nature of the bargain laid bare in Beauvais memo.
So basically my understanding is the mayor allowed for what greater cooperation with ICE, right?
And, and that was the quid pro quo to get charges dropped against, against the mayor.
And now not only did those folks resign, but some, some, some was the other like four other members of the staff there resigned as well today.
So this,
All right.
So if, if that's the case, and we can look, look it up at the record and confirm that for, for our folks, uh, this, this prosecutor, this conservative prosecutor, this clerk for Scalia, presumably, uh, and, and refusing to, to go along with this, to go along with dropping, you know, valid charges against the mayor of New York.
And in the last month or two, certainly we've seen the mayor of New York cozy up to the Trump administration, because that's what happens when you got a guy with pardon power and charge of the DOJ.
You know, they all go about weaponizing everything.
Well, what is Donald Trump doing?
That's exactly what he's doing.
He's cutting deals to drop charges of legitimate valid charges brought by a conservative prosecutor at the SDNY to cut a deal.
That's quid pro quo.
That is corruption defined.
Good to see some folks stepping down.
There continues to be follow-up from this.
Folks, more Harvey K coming back with your calls as well.
855-752-4842.
Stick around.
And welcome back to the dog
Salve your show.
Where are you going?
You can join us.
855-752-4842-855-75Civic.
Harvey K. Professor Emeritus of Democracy at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay.
Joining us from the sunshine state.
Harvey.
Thank you for doing so.
Yes.
Let us confirm.
Uh, Sassoon, this is Danielle Sassoon who left.
She resigned, uh, SDNY after Beauvais, uh, told her to drop the charges.
She did.
In fact, uh, according to the AP clerk for Scalia.
So this is not some woke liberal prosecutor.
Uh, this is, this is a, a, a 38 year old who graduated.
From Yale, I believe.
I'm sorry, I stand corrected.
I graduated from Harvard in 2008 and Yale in 2011.
38 years old being told what to do took some issue with that has resigned There's also been other resignations Harvey if I can find my notes here Four more folks today to my understanding have also resigned according to the New York Times for top officials For deputy mayors to Eric Adams are living quote to stay faithful to the old's we swore to New Yorkers
and our families.
One
Rep Dan Goldman, according to political, also took big issue with this.
He called this outright extortion.
This is way, way, way outside the bounds of the Department of Justice.
He said on Sunday, it's the, I think, most significant event since the Saturday night massacre, referring to the 1973 firing of special prosecutor, Archibald Cox, during the Watergate scandal.
Now, Beauvais was reaching out, Beauvais made this order saying that you got to drop these charges because it's interfering with his ability to run his election.
He's running for office again, right?
And his ability to cooperate with the Trump administration as it pertains to their immigration crackdown.
So, I mean, it seems very...
straightforward.
And now, not just the conservative prosecutors, and yet now you have these, these other four folks, these, these top officials from his office, the deputy mayors, mayors also resigning.
My understanding, Harvey, is that the governor of New York can excuse Mayor Adams from the mayor of New York.
So that's something
Well, she, she might now have a pretty good excuse, you know, rationale for doing so.
And that is if these deputy mayors are resigning, then his ability to govern may be in question.
And therefore they may need better leadership to make sure the New York city is not, you know,
No, no, this is great.
This is what we're doing, man.
You know, PDNY stands for Police Department of New York.
FDNY is Fire Department of New York.
And every time you say SDNY, I know we're talking about the Southern District, but I keep thinking it's the sanitation department.
That her job was to clear out the garbage.
week, Acting Deputy Attorney General Neil Bovee directed the Justice Department to drop charges against Adams.
And the memo, he wrote that the case quote, improperly interfered with the mayor's reelection campaigning and could make it more difficult for him to help Trump execute his immigration crackdown.
Yeah.
I mean, it's literally, that's, you know, Goldman, again, we talked about golden before he said that Beauvais move signals concerning a future for the justice department, the plus politicization of the department of justice is really bad and dangerous way.
It has to stop.
And someone needs to put a stop to it.
Now, Harvey, how do we
The Republicans have said that the prosecutions of Donald Trump, the various prosecutions, obviously there were many.
And against the J6ers and so forth, this was all politicization of the Justice Department.
But now we see that they're coming in and making these moves, seemingly doing exactly what the Conservatives of Meg is accused, the Democrats of doing Harvey.
The J6ers and Donald Trump staged an insurrection on January 6th.
By the way, have they banned that word from the lexicon?
Not yet.
Not yet.
I mean, they staged an insurrection.
OK.
And it was it doesn't require an order to the Justice Department to pursue insurrectionists.
OK, that's part of their task.
Right.
That's why
It's basically pursuing, issuing a directive, you know, back off the mayor of New York, when the mayor of New York may well be himself having he broke the law.
Yeah.
One.
And number two, the line between police and ICE is for most cities.
of serious line that you do not cross, okay?
So, you know, I mean, by the way, every time they speak like that and people hear that kind of stuff, I think it's part of this drive to literally silence Americans and corrupt their thinking.
This is all part of that.
It's unacceptable kind of stuff.
And the Democrats should be every single day shouting, what are they used to call it?
Blue murder, bloody murder kind of thing.
They didn't do great in the last election.
Yeah.
Democrats need real leadership right now.
Perhaps we can talk about that.
I also did see that the, the new head of the DNC, he, well, he's going out on tour.
Harvey is going to be hit in Wisconsin and some other States.
I don't know if that's going to cut it.
I mean, I, there have been some protests today, president's day, you know, no king on president's day kind of thing.
We had some here in Madison as well.
That is some reaction, but I'd love to see, I don't know,
similar Harris, you know, out just going off on people.
I'd love to see the governor of New York, uh, Huckle, uh, remove this guy.
If this is the case, if you have now you're the, these four other folks resigning, I mean, if you don't have an administration, how are you going to govern?
How are you going to win?
I mean, and then, and then the obvious corruption when you have conservative prosecutors resigning rather than fulfill the other requirement, the, the request.
of Beauvais and the Trump administration folks come back with us Harvey Kay professor emeritus of democracy from the University of Wisconsin Green Bay plus more of your calls eight five five seven five civic
And welcome back to the Dom's W show eight five five seven five two four eight four two eight five five seven five civic.
Got some callers.
Got some Texas.
We'll get to you momentarily.
We do promise Harvey K professor emeritus of a democracy from the university of Wisconsin, Green Bay, checking in from the sunshine state.
Got just past working hard on the board.
Harvey, uh, this, you said, we text a lot being Harvey and Jess.
It's, it's a lot of fun.
Thank you for sharing.
Um,
One of the things that you sent over was from the Midwestern rural radical Democrats need real leadership right now.
They don't have it I want to read just one paragraph and I want to get your sense of where you think things are right now Harvey As this author writes the reasonable questions are where are the Democrats?
What power do they have?
And here's a couple of examples that I've also noted over the course of last several weeks that this author writes and I think it's worth repeating
Instead of subpoenaing Elon, California Democrat Ro Khanna skipped the vote in a move consistent with his relationship with Musk.
Instead of using his leverage with the looming government shutdown on March 14th, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer penned a letter waving his finger at Republicans.
Instead of having a meeting about slowing down the business of the House, Minority Leader Hickim Jeffries and other Democrats on the House leadership blamed liberal groups
for encouraging people to call their representatives.
As the author writes, if they feel that way, they should resign and go home, showing contempt for your base and concerned citizens as a slap in the face.
Voters would not be blamed for voting against Democratic incumbents in the 2060 primaries if this is the response they get.
You know, Harvey, the lack of action and indeed some of this seemingly purposeful
No action is still it.
You know, that's still a decision.
You know, you can make a decision not to do something that is a decision And I think it strikes home and strikes strikes a chord at least with me What's your sense on that observation of some of the the leadership in the dem party right now?
I'm ashamed of them I mean right now as another friend of mine said they should have organized a road show already
where they're out on the road decrying what is happening and calling upon Democrats and, you know, disturbed Republicans to make themselves heard.
But we're not seeing anything like that whatsoever.
You know, I've always wondered, I wondered this in 2018 and 19.
I wonder, what did Trump have on all these
Well, look, I don't even want to hear the word resistance as a term.
I don't want resistance.
We're beyond that, right?
We're confronting, as I said before, a serious constitutional crisis, which could get even worse.
And by the way, that piece that I sent you, that was by a former student of mine.
I won't mention his name on the other end of that.
He's a former student of mine who lives down in southern Wisconsin.
And the other friend of mine who said what she would love to see as somebody who lives in New York, it has been a very active progressive member of the DNC in the past.
You taught
So my friends, these are down here in Florida as I've, for many years, almost 20 years, worked with a veterans group, a progressive veterans group here in Sarasota called Florida Veterans for Common Sense, which I don't need to go into right now, but these are mostly Vietnam era veterans.
And I just got a very late text running like 10 hours late, telling me where the protest today in Sarasota would have been.
And so I said back to him, it was a little late, you know, a little late.
The new N DNC chair kicks off a multi-state tour.
Ken Martin, a little bit on that.
His trip starts on Monday.
Bring him to Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, as well as Texas and Missouri.
They include meeting with the U of steel workers, meeting with state democratic party chairs in Illinois and Missouri.
door knocking for Democratic State House candidates.
And what else here?
Here's a quote from the new chair, Ken Martin, from NBC.
It's time for the DNC to get out of DC.
That means getting out of our comfort zone, having tough but honest conversations with voters and showing that we're willing to fight for people.
Democrats will win by organizing everywhere, competing across the ballot in every community and uniting working families from all
backgrounds.
It's time for Dems to show up in all 3,244 counties, red, purple, blue, and make our case.
Sweet,
Democrats, liberals, progressives, they're all in the same boat as far as I'm concerned.
They are completely either ignorant or literally have turned their backs on history.
History should tell them what to do.
And I don't mean specifically the words or anything else, but the fact is we have many good examples from just in the past, you know, the past century.
And I'm thinking especially, you know where I'm going.
of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
Okay, but not only him, not only him, there are other, there were great senators like the fallen of Wisconsin, like Norris of Nebraska, like Wagner of New York and others who, who basically argued for a working people's democratic party.
Okay.
And it worked.
In fact,
Keep in mind, La Follette comes out of the progressive wing, sorry, of the Republican Party in Wisconsin.
And in 1936, FDR turned his back on the Democrats in Wisconsin in favor of La Follette.
Now that's the kind of leadership we want.
We want people who are prepared to engage, and not just themselves, and not just their peers, but willing to engage the American people in support of progressive...
actions that will enhance and empower working people.
So I want to hear Democrats start talking about Franklin Roosevelt.
I want to hear them start talking about the past, which is theirs, okay, for them and take some guidance from that history.
You know, back in 2016, after we lost that election, I wrote a piece for Moyers.
I don't know if I've ever shared that one with you.
And basically what it says is maybe, maybe
Sorry, I don't mean to use the old Vietnam War talk.
Maybe the Democrats need reeducation camps for themselves.
Not reeducation as in propagandizing stuff, but there ought to be courses for Democrats and maybe even quizzes and tests so they have to know who FDR was, what it was he accomplished, and what the labor movement in
in tandem with FDR at Congress.
That's the kind of thing.
Let them start talking about where they're going.
Yeah, sure, let's have conversations.
But let's make it clear, you're the Democratic Party and there are things you should know and there are things you should be saying to inspire people.
People are not as dumb and they're not as an easy act as these Democrats seem to be.
That's my point.
Well, if you're listening to the Dom Salvi show, that's Harvey K. Professor emeritus of democracy from the University of Wisconsin Green Bay.
Great point, Harvey.
And I certainly appreciate it.
And I think especially if you look at seemingly some of the, the playbook coming out of mega right now is also has as, as, as historical overtones to it.
We've seen this before.
You know, these, this, this has all happened.
And, and what was the, what was the, the consequence of, of, of those actions in the past?
Well, it was those folks that you mentioned, man.
It was LaFollette, it was FDR.
That, those were the folks and those were the ideas and the actions that helped overcome what literally we're seeing in this authoritarian movement in the Megas right now.
like literally it's right here right now their history quote-unquote our history our entire country's history world history we've seen this it's ebbed and flowing and it doesn't repeat but sure sounds the same eight five five seven five two four eight four two a couple of collars let's get to them Tom from LA you're up welcome Tom what do you got for us
well as you know I'm a proud FDR Democrat yes um and and Harvey what I would say I don't understand
You know, the Democrats must be just scared to death with Citizens United and money and politics that they can't stand up and say, you know, hey, you know, these economic royalists.
I mean, take it after these people directly, immediately, instead of playing footsie.
You know, they're playing the, the Republicans are playing the Hitler playbook.
Why don't we play the Franklin Delano Roosevelt playbook?
I mean, this is just getting ridiculous.
And the thing is, Democrats need to be bold.
They need to stop being so, if someone asks you questions, just say yes or no.
And just sit there and just keep going with the fact that you have, I mean, you have a billionaire.
Everyone in the country knows we got billionaires running the country right now.
What's the alpha?
I don't
I appreciate it, man.
Thank you for, for holding on to the economic royalist.
And I think he also has a good point too.
And our pal, Maggie Dawn talks about this her show two to four right here on civic media before me.
Uh, sound like a human being, you know, don't, don't sound like a politician when you're talking to people.
Talk like a real person.
Don't be coached.
Don't do those things.
Make some mistakes.
Say the wrong word.
Be a normal person when you talk about these issues.
And I think that goes a long way.
I like the economic royalist.
However, your thoughts.
Yes.
And when we come back from the break and we got a couple more minutes in the segment, take some more calls, eight, five, five, seven, five, two, four, eight, four, two.
Don't forget we end the show.
Tell us something good.
We end the show in a positive note here, folks.
That's how we roll eight, five, five, seven, five, two, four, eight, four, two.
Pat from the MKE.
You are next.
Welcome, Pat.
Thanks for your patience.
What do you got for
us?
Oh, Dom, I'm Pat from Milwaukee.
I was raised by Roosevelt Democrats and turned into a yippie in my youth.
But the fact is that Trump doesn't know any history.
But he's spout nonsense.
It's OK if I'm saving the country.
That is kind of a paraphrase of some of Napoleon's
justification for his behavior.
And more recently, it's the, it was a paraphrase of the killer in, I think it was Sweden or Norway about seven years ago who attacked a camp, a progressive camp and a school.
He killed 77 people.
right.
He was trying to save his country.
Yeah, thank you Pat appreciate it eight five five seven five two four eight four two Donald Trump saying those phrases that it just I don't want to talk it out of turn But I don't have it in front of me something if you if you you're not breaking the law if you save the country, right?
I mean that is just a an asinine anti-democratic authoritarian position.
Go ahead, Harvey.
About a minute and a half
All right This is what he said accepting renomination for president in 1936 in a stadium with like a hundred thousand Democrats and working people in attendance These economic royalists by the way, they had organized against it They wanted to bring him down and they failed these economic royalist complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power
And listen to this, he says, our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of that kind of power.

Congratulations.
Key lime pie for dessert.
Happy anniversary.
Key lime pie.
Quite likely.
Horace been texting us pictures of his food all week.
I'm so hungry even right now thinking about it.
I didn't know there's so many ways to make key lime pie.
That's a positive thing.
And a lot of them in jars.
Right.
Easier, I guess.
Hey, Harvey, that's awesome.
And congratulations.
I hope you guys have a wonderful,
Yeah.
Awesome.
Well, that's a nice feeling.
I know you're down in the sunshine to stay there, Harvey, but we have a little bit of snow up here the last couple of days.
So, you know, bring the sun back with you when you come.
All right.
I got, I want to share this one out there as well.
Last night I got to watch the 50th anniversary presentation of Saturday Night Live and I mean this thing started in 75 and as we talked about earlier in the show I mean it was
Great, I mean we were kids back then it was it was only three channels on it was it was groundbreaking And you know your parents sometimes didn't watch you want you watching it, you know what I mean?
And it was great and I'm not really a star struck guy was but it was great to see all the folks and I mean hell Bert Bill Murray was there, you know It was it was just a lot of fun and then this morning as I was up in perusing, you know the headlines and I got to the Atlantic
And they got a piece that says, do it for Gilda, Gilda Radner.
The too short life of a comedy genius is a reminder to the rest of us how to make good use of the time we are given.
I'm just going to read the last two paragraphs here.
Atlantic, they can be a little long sometime.
We're going to run a little short.
Gene Wilder from Milwaukee, you know what I mean?
Yeah, man.
Him and Gilda Radner, they were married for only five years before she died at the age of 42 of a variant cancer.
And today, she is remembered as much for the unfairness of her young death like Belushi before her and Chris Farley after her, as she is for her originality and spectacular talent.
In a gentler world, all three of them would still be with us.
Radner and Belushi would be in their 70s, Farley in his 60s.
In a gentler world, Radner could have all the babies she wished for made all the movies she never got to and would still be making people laugh.
When I think about Radner now, what I think about the most is the way she lived and how that ought to be a lesson to the rest of us.
She had a sense of total urgency and a willingness to do the things that terrified her.
Somehow she made it look easy.
quote, I don't know why I'm doing it, she once said in an interview about why she'd chosen to take her act to Broadway, except for some reason I've chosen to scare myself to death.
That was Gilda Radder, Gilda, who as a child once overheard her mother saying Gilda could sell ice cubes in winter.
and so set up a little stand outside just to do that.
Gilda, who loved work so much that she'd get impatient on the way to NBC Studios and ask her taxi drivers to speed up already.
Gilda, who fell in love easily and often wasn't afraid to be weird or look ridiculous.
Gilda, who would make anything funny, but her real legacy, it turns out, is something much more profound than her comedy.
This is the lesson of Gilda Radner's too short life.
For God's sake, don't bother with fear.
Just go for the thing you want with your whole heart.
Each of us gets only so much time on this planet, and none of us knows for how long.
Life can be terrible this way and sad, and it isn't fair at all.
But it is funny, anyway.
Really, really funny.
Gilda Radner, just up.
Awesome.
She was so damn funny and I forgot and I forget until I saw some of these skits from last night How funny she was Rosanna Rosanna Dana.
