One of our true heroes in elected office. Thank you for your continued service Sir, especially under the most difficult personal circumstances imaginable. Without you, I think democracy was hanging by a thread...and now we still have a shot to get this thing right!
@@branevans3705eedmywokebear is cutting/pasting the exact same sad BS as savingdemocracy on another comment. They have to share their 1 lame comment, as there is no original thought between the 2 of them. Sad.
Mr. Raskin exemplifies what it means to serve the public with the highest standards, even while enduring tragedy and grief. The contrast between this and the behavior of his colleagues on the right is incredible. This should make everyone question why, exactly, these most flawed individuals, representing the worst in humanity, ever get elected in the first place. Mr. Raskin has my vote if he decides to run for president.
As a mother who lost my son in a car accident I can’t even begin to imagine how he stays so strong! I am overwhelmed with gratitude to Mr. Raskin for his service to our Country. 🙏💙🇺🇸
feel for you,and I know how it feels to lose a child... my boy died because off meningitis,his father couldn't cope and left this earth a year later...
A normal, civilized conversation about real things between two rational, intelligent adults with the ability to think and reflect. It used to be a normal thing not that many years ago. MAGA Republicans hate that, so they ruined it. If you're not uninformed, delusional, worryingly immature and perpetually apoplectic from believing in every single obviously impossible and contradictory lie and conspiracy theory you're told, you're "woke". Sigh...
Imagine all the things the US could accomplish if all Reps and Senators were as dedicated, intelligent and erudite as Rep. Jamie Raskin. I really hope he runs for President some day. He would be a wonderful representative of the values and honor of the USA, as a world leader.
As an outsider, Australian, looking in over the past few years of US turmoil I find this man stands out as a real defender of what the USA is supposed to be, and doing that through a personal loss of such significAnce and then a personal illness that would have ravaged his body. He is remarkable and you are so lucky to have such a person standing up for you in the public institutions. He seems to understand the constitution better than almost anyone I have heard referencing it. Very impressive human being.
Robert F. Kennedy understands the constitution better than any other candidate for presidency in my eyes. But i am just trying to get the conversation going i guess about RFK.
Well you are another sheep to our corrupt media. Spend about 3 hours a day following the media and politics over the last 8 years and you’ll see you’re perception is embarrassing
@@sebaldc.2681 I loved JFK, worked for RFK in his run for President....but RFK Jr. He's truly misinformed about so many things...I'd NEVER vote for him.
Paul Stevens , I thank you for your views about one of the very admirable , intelligent and knowledgeable members of our government . You , being a foreigner ( to us Yanks )to take the time and effort to evaluate and comment on one of our politicians ( the most capable of ALL of our 535 lawmakers ) is laudable . You have a fine character ( and I would like to know you. . .if we had the chance ). You’re obviously a fine citizen .
God bless Rep. Jamie Raskin and his family. I can’t imagine how difficult it was to lose their son, and then have to deal with a potentially deadly disease and yet Mr. Raskin remains courageous, kind and a force for good. A truly amazing human being.❤
This man teaches us peace is strength. He's lost his son, he's battled with cancer, and yet instead of turning to hate, he fights for Democracy and the rule of law, all of our rights, peacefully. No gun waving, no racist or sexist insults or threats, or gang of goons, just legislative action using the power of his office to promote peace. He reminds me of the trees and the river and the rocks that he has walked amongst his whole life. USA could learn a lot from this man, and for all of our sakes, I hope we do.
Yes, he makes cb us see and hear and we can fight but have grace and it’s a tough lesson for people like me that respond with anger to what some are doing to our Democracy. I need to be similar. I am 77 and B I should have learned that by now.
What I'm blown away with is how he has managed to continue his job, still standing strong in debate, despite how sick and grief stricken he must have felt at times. Extremely impressive man. From Australia.
You don't have to be a Democrat, or into politics, or even up-to-date on what's going on in the world to understand where Jamie Raskin is coming from... He's a father who lost his son to suicide. He's a man who is winning the battle against cancer. He's a deep-hearted lover of nature. He's a lover of all things Shakespeare. He's fair, outgoing, truthful, amazing, tho admittedly not perfect. Thank you, sir - you are very loved.

I can only hope that Marylanders continue to re-elect this GIANT of a man, who is beloved nationally and is so greatly needed in Washington.

@@rhmayer1Being in one of the 4 NY districts that lost us the house, I listen to his speeches & hope for the return of sanity to my district. He's amazing, as a congressman and human, would make great POTUS!
I have nothing but fondness and respect for Jamie Raskin, he is a pillar of hope in a time where darkness is only a few steps away. Thank you Jen for this thoughtful interview.
That was lovely. The Congressman is one of the Americans I admire most. God bless him for what he's been through, and for staying to fight for our country in the face of his precious son's death and his private battle with cancer. We owe you so much, Jamie. You are a statesman. Thank you.
It was uplifting to see two beings of light strolling through a beautiful park while discussing how to keep the encroaching darkness from the right at bay.
Love what Jen is doing to personalize public figures. It is a great example of how public service is real, and valid, and a noble endeavor. Strength to Rep. Raskin and his family.
Jen Psaki is a good communicator and explicate. This conversation with Jamie Raskin is profound and revealing. I knew his son had died, but I didn’t know how Shakespeare is so important to his life. Thanks to both!
I didn't know Rep. Raskin's family went through their sons death. I'm so sorry to hear that. I know, where have I been, under a rock? Yep, pretty much. I don't like most news programs anymore, but I stumbled upon this program and plan to follow this because it was done with respect for this noble man and his family.
He has become one of my heroes! When I heard him at the insurrection hearings say that his daughters didn't ever want to go back to DC, you could see how heartbroken he was because he has spent his life working for the American people in the effort to strengthen our democracy. I cried for him knowing he had just lost his son six days before the insurrection. Jamie Raskin is the kind of leader we need desperately right now and I'm so very happy he is in remission.
Nothing but respect for Jamie Raskin. As a Mother who has lost her son my heart breaks for you. The loss of a child is the worst pain ever. Thank you for your devotion for Justice. Hope your healing continues in the right direction for your cancer!
I have such an enormous amount of respect for this man. The way that he expresses his love and grief for the loss of his son is so true, so beautiful, and so succinct. My son died a few years before his Tommy, so his pain is familiar to me. I wish for him all of the happiness and blessings this world has to offer
What a wonderful man. We are so lucky to have him fighting for us all. I know how suicide affects a family since my dad killed himself years ago and bless Jamie for being so strong. One day at a time Jamie. Losing a child is the worse thing that can ever happen. Thank you sir.
Thank you Jen. I watched this segment twice yesterday. It was a great interview with a beautiful man. The world needs more people like Jamie Raskin. He is truly a ray of light in these dark times.
Anyone notice a stark contrast between democrats and republicans? I feel at peace, not threatened, they are both so peaceful. When I see videos of republican thugs, it's nothing but yelling, death threats, flashing rifles/guns at the camera, threatening prison or impeachment to innocent people, etc.
@friend ofcheapergas - you, wokebear, and saving democracy are just lame & pathetic with your exact same cut/paste. Either you are triplets with 1 braincell amongst you, or your multiple personalities are fighting for control. I would advise you to take your meds. BTW -- I got gas for $3.09 a gallon on Friday. You need to catch up with reality.
I am ashamed that Rep Raskin has given us so much, and i somehow missed the personal cost to him. Rarely do I cry during political interviews, heck, I try not to watch too many, but I hold such deep respect, and yes love for this incredible figure that I wanted to know more. I wish I had a way to make this last decade a do-over. My prayers are always with him and the family that nurtures him. Blessings.😊
What an amazing down to earth human being Jamie is. As a cancer survivor, I understand his, struggle with this horrendous disease. His ethics and values, are exemplary traits, of a sincere and dedicated human being.
Listening to Rep. Jamie Raskin brings me hope for the future. He is a beautiful soul and is a wonderful example of what a good leader is. I enjoyed their peaceful walk in the park.
Rep. Jamie Raskin is intelligent, articulate, erudite, courageous, compassionate, kind, and passionate about democracy, justice, and the rule of law. America and the world need more people like him.
I spent the first 8 years of my life living on the edge of the park, (1947 to 1955). Hiked all over it as a kid. Learned to love hiking, and stayed in the hiking industry for 40 years. Always loved Rock Creek park. Jamie Raskin is certainly one of the best congressmen we have.
I hear this interview, and Rep. Raskin illustrate so many strengths in so few words that I am impressed yet again. If only more of our elected representatives had the grace, strength, humility, empathy, and intelligence that he embodies, we'd be in a better place. I hope he stays safe and healthy.
Thankful for Rep Raskin’s dedication to serving our country. With all of the personal issues he has faced he continues to go to work and be a voice for our democracy.
We have so much to be thankful for in the work of the Committee. It was a shattered vase, our treasured piece, a shocking loss…and the Committee members and their staff picked up the pieces for us to bring the beauty back. All of it memorable and healing, Young Cassidy's testimony, the officers who were in tears and who never let us forget, they represented all the others from that day. Raskin is a Constitutional Law Professor who puts us at ease….we'll get through this.
@@powerWithinUs4055 Raskin is anti-democracy and anti-constitution. His testimony is filled with misinformation and lies. He repeatedly lied and still does about the Russia Hoax. Can't believe a word he says. Saying our democracy is at stake when he talks about the republicans tell you a lot. At the moment our democracy is not at stake BUT if Biden is re-elected we will lose it.
@@Univisible So your statement contradicts itself. We the people vote on things that affect us, hence a democracy. Federalism is the division of powers between state and federal powers. If we have no democracy, you have tyranny. That’s where the dictatorship will control the federalists. End of democracy will be the biggest challenge to your freedom.
From Canada, I am so glad you are in remission, Mr. Raskin! Wishing you excellent health. You are someone I have watched often in the news, and I admire your courage, hard work, optimism, intellect, and political commitments. I am deeply, deeply sorry for the loss of your dear son. Both Canada and the U.S. need to do so much more in support of mental health and addictions recovery. Your country needs you very much. 🇨🇦🙏🏻
What a wonderful way to do this interview waking through toe woods. Jen is great and Mr Raskins is one of a kind. An amazing human ! Thank God he is Such a strong voice for us in congress! Thank you Jamie Raskins!!
Let’s hope not. There are smart loving caring young people. But it is sad to see, that The Government the Republican Party turned into cult, to a mop like group, cheating, lying, ignoring rules and laws. I hope the Republican Party gets cleaned out of all this traitors. Rep. Raskin is a great example of a trustworthy good person. Many Blessings and success in all he does
Jamie Raskin really is a genuine, kind, compassionate person. We're lucky to have him fighting for what's right in congress. I would love to see him run for president.
My heart goes out to this quiet man whom I admire for his courage and his willingness to step up and speak truth to power.. to educate us on the constitution and on what our forefathers intended. Much respect Mr. Raskin.
I have so much admiration and respect for Rep. Raskin. As someone who has suffered a loss of a loved one by suicide and then battled cancer along with having a son that almost lost his life at the hands of a reckless driver my own depression dealing with almost losing him and battling cancer then covid. He has been through even more. God Bless you Rep. Raskin🙏
What a man of incredible integrity, intelligence, humility & grace. Our nation is so fortunate to have him in Washington. To have gone through all he & his family have been through over the last few years is humbling for any of us but to go through the beyond tragic loss of his son & dealing with all that comes with a cancer diagnosis in the midst of intense grief AND remain so strongly engaged in his work as a member of such a crazy Congress is just amazing. Blessings to you & your family Rep. Raskin. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your son.❤
Wonderful news about your battle with cancer Jamie. I'm a late stage cancer survivor 20 years now. Thank you for all you do for all Americans. Thank you Jen for this interview.
Jamie Raskin is a tremendous power of example on so many levels! There are no words for the magnitude of respect for this patriot to our country. Blessings, Jamie and family!
Being home the last couple of years , I watched SENATOR RASKIN speak many times and I have so much respect for him. His love for his Country and his Family show in everything he does. He serves others with all he has, with wisdom and integrity. I lost my daughter when she was 15 due to suicide as well. His strength and courage after the loss of his son and during his own battle with cancer have been inspiring. I am so grateful for his dedication and service to protect and preserve our Democracy.
Some people fall apart when they lose a child and I understand that, and then throw cancer into the mix, it’s so good to see someone put purpose into tragedy. He’s an amazing man.
I just wish there were more interviews in informal settings like this. They reveal so much about the true character of the person being interviewed and in such a relatable way. If you didn't admire Jamie Raskin for all he is and has been, you surely will now. Like the other comment below puts it, "a ray of light" if there ever was one.
Jamie is the real deal. An authentic, hard working American who has done so much to preserve our democracy. Thank you for your commitment to the truth. We love you and commend you for all that you do for the people, Jamie. 💙🙏💯🎯😢

You can hate democrats- never vote for one of them in your life. But there is nothing you can say about the character, dignity, and intention to uphold the constitution of this man. These are the people I want in leadership.
I have the upmost respect for Jamie. He’s a man with integrity and empathy for others. My heart goes out to him and his family of the loss of their son, Tommy. And I love Jen too! Wonderful interview.
Jamie Raskin is a true hero in my eyes… kind, compassionate, caring and a beacon for democracy and the rule of law. Thank you for this wonderful look into his life, Jen Psaki! I really love your show, your guests and your insightful interviews.
I feel so much appreciation for Jamie Raskin, for his humanity, kindheartedness and wit, for his magnificent work - and for this great interview 🙏🙏 If I were an American living in the USA, and if Jamie Raskin were ever to run as president for the USA, I would feel honoured voting for him.
Thank you, Jen, for such a beautiful interview. My admiration for Rep Raskin has gone through the roof. I loved how he was able to discuss how Shakespeare has helped him through his heartbreaking tragedies. I want to see this interview again often.
Articulate, intelligent, empathetic and inspirational. Wow. Thank you for your dedication and commitment. We are so fortunate to benefit from his contributions. Wishing him good health. Thank you Representative Raskin.
What a good man he is. The discussion of his son is so heartbreaking - it's so sad this world lost someone this young with some much passion. I wish him continued recovery and health.
@@brycecupp9660There are 2 others (cheapergas & savingdemocracy) with the exact same C/P. Triplets or multiple personality disorder? Regardless, lame. Their poor parents, sigh!
Thank you Representative Raskin for doing all that you do to protect and sustain our democracy. I truly admire your courage to do so, especially while you were battling such deep pain over the loss of your son. And thank you, Jen Psaki, for bringing this insightful interview. I always look forward to seeing anything you're sharing.
It was perfect. Two people waking in a park while taking z it didn’t feel like an interview just two of our favorite people who are friends. My heart breaks for the loss of his son. Glad to hear he’s in remission.
Thank you - this was a GREAT interview. Our county needs more people like Jamie Raskin. He not only represents the best of humanity, but brings a whole new meaning of public service, committment and sacrifice for all..while the only thing the Republican's put forth is one of self-enrichment and greed that knows no bounds. Hopefully, the one-third of our population needs to wake up before it is to late. I still have hope, I refuse to think of any other alternative.
I lost my adult son and to this day I cannot shake the heartbreak and probably never will. When I listen to Mr. Raskin, I feel hopeful that maybe healing will happen eventually. I also lost a family member to suicide and that experience was so devastating. He was just 22 at the time. It has been 40 years plus and his tragic death still pains me. Mr. Raskin is an inspiration for all that he has exposed himself to even through his battle with Cancer. Thank you for your service and hopefully soon we will see the fruits of your work renew and revive our democracy.
Thank you, Jen Psaki. More like this, please! Can you imagine getting positive and heart-warming news sent out to us from a beautiful natural setting at least once a day? I think our lives and our humanity would improve greatly. What a concept!
Much admiration and respect for this man for who he is, what he has gone through, and what he has championed and accomplished! Thank you for sharing this conversation.
Love you, Jen Psaki. You’re excellent. And Rep. Jamie Raskin, so much Respect and Gratitude for you. You have my prayers every single day. So thankful you are in remission. Love and healing blessings to you and your family. 💙🇺🇸🙏
Being around trees is very therapeutic and nature in general is earth’s medicine. LOVE Jamie and what an honor to have him in Congress. Jamie is brilliant, a humanitarian and a strong supporter of democracy. What he has accomplished through the pain of losing his son is remarkable. 💕
I was glad to get caught up on this full picture of what Mr. Raskin was going through. Wishing him all the love and blessing, with gratefulness for his service.

Yes, was so happy to hear his compassion now extends to nonhuman animals too--he went again to honor his son, Tommy and to lessen animal suffering .
@savingdemocracy5526 Guess you haven’t seen me, have you? 😘🙏🙄
Nothing but respect for Jamie Raskin. As a Mother who has lost her son my heart breaks for you. The loss of a child is the worst pain ever. Thank you for your devotion for Justice. Hope your healing continues in the right direction for your cancer!
❤
I have such an enormous amount of respect for this man. The way that he expresses his love and grief for the loss of his son is so true, so beautiful, and so succinct. My son died a few years before his Tommy, so his pain is familiar to me. I wish for him all of the happiness and blessings this world has to offer
What a wonderful man. We are so lucky to have him fighting for us all. I know how suicide affects a family since my dad killed himself years ago and bless Jamie for being so strong. One day at a time Jamie. Losing a child is the worse thing that can ever happen. Thank you sir.
We owe this remarkable & patriotic man an immense debt for his tremendous courage & fortitude

Thank you Jen. I watched this segment twice yesterday. It was a great interview with a beautiful man. The world needs more people like Jamie Raskin. He is truly a ray of light in these dark times.
He is an overly emotional shill for the left.

💯 agree! Imagine a compassionate vegan world full of caring human beings like Jamie. There would be so much less suffering in the world.
Rep. Raskin deserves mad respect. What a brilliant man! He is a reason for the U.S. to be proud.
Two people talking together about their deepest concerns. What we each need in our lives!
Nice to see two decent persons getting together for a lovely walk and inspiring conversation. Thanks to both.
Two full fledged liars.
@NeedmyWokebear-rf3tk magats are disgusting
Anyone notice a stark contrast between democrats and republicans? I feel at peace, not threatened, they are both so peaceful. When I see videos of republican thugs, it's nothing but yelling, death threats, flashing rifles/guns at the camera, threatening prison or impeachment to innocent people, etc.

@friend ofcheapergas - you, wokebear, and saving democracy are just lame & pathetic with your exact same cut/paste. Either you are triplets with 1 braincell amongst you, or your multiple personalities are fighting for control. I would advise you to take your meds.
BTW -- I got gas for $3.09 a gallon on Friday. You need to catch up with reality.
I am ashamed that Rep Raskin has given us so much, and i somehow missed the personal cost to him. Rarely do I cry during political interviews, heck, I try not to watch too many, but I hold such deep respect, and yes love for this incredible figure that I wanted to know more. I wish I had a way to make this last decade a do-over. My prayers are always with him and the family that nurtures him. Blessings.😊
What an amazing down to earth human being Jamie is.
As a cancer survivor, I understand his, struggle with this horrendous disease.
His ethics and values, are exemplary traits, of a sincere and dedicated human being.
Listening to Rep. Jamie Raskin brings me hope for the future. He is a beautiful soul and is a wonderful example of what a good leader is. I enjoyed their peaceful walk in the park.
@NeedmyWokebear-rf3tk Looks like this copypasta bot needs to get a real job. The ruble's drop in value hit you hard, didn't it.
I've always had a huge admiration for this man. His vulnerability, his compassion and his strength are of legend.
Rep. Jamie Raskin is intelligent, articulate, erudite, courageous, compassionate, kind, and passionate about democracy, justice, and the rule of law. America and the world need more people like him.
Heaven help us if there is more than one Jaime Raskin.
agree 💯 And his compassion extends to nonhuman animals as well since he went vegan in honor of his son, Tommy.

I spent the first 8 years of my life living on the edge of the park, (1947 to 1955). Hiked all over it as a kid. Learned to love hiking, and stayed in the hiking industry for 40 years. Always loved Rock Creek park. Jamie Raskin is certainly one of the best congressmen we have.
I hear this interview, and Rep. Raskin illustrate so many strengths in so few words that I am impressed yet again. If only more of our elected representatives had the grace, strength, humility, empathy, and intelligence that he embodies, we'd be in a better place. I hope he stays safe and healthy.
Raskin is a joke.

I feel so much admiration for this man. Such a human. Big up to you congressman.
Thankful for Rep Raskin’s dedication to serving our country. With all of the personal issues he has faced he continues to go to work and be a voice for our democracy.
You mean against our democracy.
@NeedmyWokebear-rf3tk Uh, yup, ah thunk it soo it gotta be tru.
Yes, he's amazing!!!
We have so much to be thankful for in the work of the Committee.
It was a shattered vase, our treasured piece, a shocking loss…and the Committee members and their staff picked up the pieces for us to bring the beauty back. All of it memorable and healing, Young Cassidy's testimony, the officers who were in tears and who never let us forget, they represented all the others from that day.
Raskin is a Constitutional Law Professor who puts us at ease….we'll get through this.
@@powerWithinUs4055 Raskin is anti-democracy and anti-constitution. His testimony is filled with misinformation and lies. He repeatedly lied and still does about the Russia Hoax. Can't believe a word he says. Saying our democracy is at stake when he talks about the republicans tell you a lot. At the moment our democracy is not at stake BUT if Biden is re-elected we will lose it.
Two great patriots for American democracy. Thank you for what you both do.

@@Univisible So your statement contradicts itself. We the people vote on things that affect us, hence a democracy. Federalism is the division of powers between state and federal powers.

What an amazingly kind, compassionate and dedicated person. How I wish there were more Jamie Raskin's serving this country so admirably.
Thank you Jamie for your humanity, your dignity and your commitment to the USA. You're record in history will be that of a "Great Man."
What a great human being. Thanks Jen for sharing this with us
It's on my bucket list to someday meet Rep Raskin. I believe he is truly one of the most decent,
intelligent, caring people in earth.
💓💓💓💓
From Canada, I am so glad you are in remission, Mr. Raskin! Wishing you excellent health. You are someone I have watched often in the news, and I admire your courage, hard work, optimism, intellect, and political commitments. I am deeply, deeply sorry for the loss of your dear son. Both Canada and the U.S. need to do so much more in support of mental health and addictions recovery. Your country needs you very much. 🇨🇦🙏🏻
❤🙏🇩🇪
What a wonderful way to do this interview waking through toe woods. Jen is great and Mr Raskins is one of a kind. An amazing human ! Thank God he is
Such a strong voice for us in congress! Thank you Jamie Raskins!!
Jamie Raskin is a perfect example of the type of leaders we need running our government! I wish we had more like him!
This is a kind of person in extinction. Unfortunately, everywhere in the world. So sad.
Let’s hope not.
There are smart loving caring young people.
But it is sad to see, that The Government the Republican Party turned into cult, to a mop like group, cheating, lying, ignoring rules and laws.
I hope the Republican Party gets cleaned out of all this traitors.
Rep. Raskin is a great example of a trustworthy good person.
Many Blessings and success in all he does
Amen!
I wish We could trade Cancun Cruz for someone like Representative Raskin.
Thank You Mr. Raskin!
Absolutely, God Bless Jamie Raskin.
What a kind, brave and smart person. We need more of him in Congress.
He is a true American in the finest sense.
There aren’t any republicans who can compare to Jamie Raskin
Jamie Raskin really is a genuine, kind, compassionate person. We're lucky to have him fighting for what's right in congress. I would love to see him run for president.
My heart goes out to this quiet man whom I admire for his courage and his willingness to step up and speak truth to power.. to educate us on the constitution and on what our forefathers intended. Much respect Mr. Raskin.
I have so much admiration and respect for Rep. Raskin. As someone who has suffered a loss of a loved one by suicide and then battled cancer along with having a son that almost lost his life at the hands of a reckless driver my own depression dealing with almost losing him and battling cancer then covid. He has been through even more. God Bless you Rep. Raskin🙏
What a man of incredible integrity, intelligence, humility & grace. Our nation is so fortunate to have him in Washington. To have gone through all he & his family have been through over the last few years is humbling for any of us but to go through the beyond tragic loss of his son & dealing with all that comes with a cancer diagnosis in the midst of intense grief AND remain so strongly engaged in his work as a member of such a crazy Congress is just amazing. Blessings to you & your family Rep. Raskin. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your son.❤
So we'll said.
Raskin for President 😊 !!! Thanks for defending our democracy everyday! You are appreciated! Jen, you too!
I can't even express how much I love this. You're a beautiful soul, Mr. Raskin. Thank you for all you do for our country. ♥️
Rep. Raisin is a pure delight. He was one ray of hope in the dark times of the former administration. Respect and love for him and his sweet family.
This is a joy to watch! It feels so uplifting on the soul. I'm so grateful to Jen and Jamie for doing this! Hope we'll see more things like this.
Wonderful news about your battle with cancer Jamie. I'm a late stage cancer survivor 20 years now. Thank you for all you do for all Americans. Thank you Jen for this interview.
Wishing you continued good health.
@@saraleigh5336 Yes we're all wishing a speedy recovery to dear Mr.Raskin...a decent politician and man..

Jamie Raskin is a tremendous power of example on so many levels! There are no words for the magnitude of respect for this patriot to our country. Blessings, Jamie and family!
What an incredibly insightful, profoundly humane, brilliant man. What a great interview Jen. Such sensitivity.
Excellent interview. I agree.
Being home the last couple of years , I watched SENATOR RASKIN speak many times and I have so much respect for him. His love for his Country and his Family show in everything he does. He serves others with all he has, with wisdom and integrity. I lost my daughter when she was 15 due to suicide as well. His strength and courage after the loss of his son and during his own battle with cancer have been inspiring. I am so grateful for his dedication and service to protect and preserve our Democracy.
Some people fall apart when they lose a child and I understand that, and then throw cancer into the mix, it’s so good to see someone put purpose into tragedy. He’s an amazing man.
I just wish there were more interviews in informal settings like this. They reveal so much about the true character of the person being interviewed and in such a relatable way. If you didn't admire Jamie Raskin for all he is and has been, you surely will now. Like the other comment below puts it, "a ray of light" if there ever was one.
So love this man! Such a true patriot and inspiration for us all.Beautiful interview, thank you Jenn...👍🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
Jamie is the real deal. An authentic, hard working American who has done so much to preserve our democracy.
Thank you for your commitment to the truth. We love you and commend you for all that you do for the people, Jamie. 💙🙏💯🎯😢

You can hate democrats- never vote for one of them in your life. But there is nothing you can say about the character, dignity, and intention to uphold the constitution of this man. These are the people I want in leadership.
Amen, Kelly.
I have the upmost respect for Jamie. He’s a man with integrity and empathy for others. My heart goes out to him and his family of the loss of their son, Tommy. And I love Jen too! Wonderful interview.
My two favorite people. Thank you for this interview. Showing how remarkable humans can be when faced with personal and political adversity.
Jamie Raskin is a true hero in my eyes… kind, compassionate, caring and a beacon for democracy and the rule of law. Thank you for this wonderful look into his life, Jen Psaki! I really love your show, your guests and your insightful interviews.
I agree, and think your phrase "a beacon for democracy" would make an excellent book title for a biography about him.

Thank you, Jen, for such a beautiful interview. My admiration for Rep Raskin has gone through the roof. I loved how he was able to discuss how Shakespeare has helped him through his heartbreaking tragedies. I want to see this interview again often.
Wonderful interview. Thank you for you passion and all you do for America Jamie. ❤️🇺🇸💙Thank you Jen for bringing this experience to all.

This was so beautiful. It is heartbreaking to see the pain Mr. Raskin is going through. Jen did a beautiful job. My heart goes out to their family. ❤❤

It was perfect. Two people waking in a park while taking z it didn’t feel like

Jamie Raskin is an American legend and extraordinary human being. ❤
😂😂😂
How blind can one be! Democrat supporters never cease to amaze me some are so ignorant it's incredible
Facts
Thank you - this was a GREAT interview. Our county needs more people like Jamie Raskin. He not only represents the best of humanity, but brings a whole new meaning of public service, committment and sacrifice for all..while the only thing the Republican's put forth is one of self-enrichment and greed that knows no bounds. Hopefully, the one-third of our population needs to wake up before it is to late. I still have hope, I refuse to think of any other alternative.
I lost my adult son and to this day I cannot shake the heartbreak and probably never will. When I listen to Mr. Raskin, I feel hopeful that maybe healing will happen eventually. I also lost a family member to suicide and that experience was so devastating. He was just 22 at the time. It has been 40 years plus and his tragic death still pains me. Mr. Raskin is an inspiration for all that he has exposed himself to even through his battle with Cancer. Thank you for your service and hopefully soon we will see the fruits of your work renew and revive our democracy.
I’m so sorry for your loss
I hope you find some peace & healing
🌻🖖🏾
Thank you, Jen Psaki. More like this, please! Can you imagine getting positive and heart-warming news sent out to us from a beautiful natural setting at least once a day? I think our lives and our humanity would improve greatly. What a concept!
Jamie is such an honourable, intelligent, kind man. He is what a true modern day warrior looks like. Thank you for your service Jamie! I’m grateful.
I would love to see Mr. Raskin run for the Senate one day!! He’s a strong, resilient, and humble congressman
He would certainly make a great speaker of the House. He's got such integrity, unlike the current creep.
