Join Dr. Klein with a brief discussion of the decline in competence in the average US citizen. President Biden opined to his base that he would solve financial problems for the average citizen, because we are all apparently becoming so incapable that we cannot prosecute simple problems in our lives.

Tyre Nichols died at the hands of five to six Memphis police officers in a horrific beating. Once the emotional reaction is managed, we need to get down to thinking about how to solve the problem, which is that we have unqualified people joining the force after 2020. We have a mass exodus of qualified police and a record low number of new enrollees. We demoralized the police and now we have the least qualified people joining. How do we solve this? IQ and personality testing should be a part of the solution.

A very disturbing story has arisen about Harvard Medical School removing itself from the US news and world report ranking. This represents a distorted version of what is "noble" in the eyes of the dean and his progressive ideation. I suggest that this story represents a very concerning trend in academia and in society generally.

Join Dr. Klein for a brief reaction to the savage beating of Paul Pelosi in his San Francisco home. Be careful of the developing narrative being crafted by the news medias at present. Let's think about this one together.

Police reforms and the defund movements have been a disaster and harm mainly communities of color. Rafael Mangual of the Manhatten Institute joins Dr. Klein for a discussion of his book, Criminal Injustice.

Today I am talking with retired police officer, Mark Bua, who served with distinction for 15 years on the San Diego Police Department, winning numerous awards, patrolling and also instructing. He currently runs an investigations and security service in both southern California and in Texas.

This was also the first Real Clear episode that was recorded with video and is available on YouTube. 

It is my impression that people in the United States are now ready to have a rational conversation about policing, and that we are very much starting to recover from what has been an (emotionally understandable) social justice movement that has gripped the nation for the last three years. This fervor of that movement  has brought the nation a dangerous crime wave by way of reducing the police force and emboldening criminal behavior, it has massively impaired racial relations, and as demoralized new recruits as well as veteran officers. 

Compared to 2019, recruitments are down 60%, and officers are taking early retirement in record numbers across the nation. If we don't find a way to recuperate from the reaction to the killing of George Floyd, this nation will descend further into criminal chaos. 

Mark and I discuss the defund movement, race relations, female officers and the push to recruit them, and the insidious effect of damaging policies on the organizational structure of police departments. 

 I hope this conversation represents a growing capacity in all of us to discuss reality on its own terms.

Dr. Klein presents a case that the “words are violence” and “psychological safety” movements in the west are based on serious disturbances and that these implicit and avowed movements have morbid consequences for the future of civilization as we know it.
