Welcome back, president trump has faced harsh criticism for not coming out against the kkk and white nationalism. >> the first statement i made was a fine statement, but you dont make statements that direct unless you know the fact. this event just happened. in fact a lot of the events were happening while we were speaking. >> it was clear saturday night that the hate groups were stoking controversy, the charlottesville mayor confirmed

Is startingç again. disrespectful, disgusting, mean speech is still protected speech as long as it is peaceful. i disagree with it personally but i disagree with a lot of things and many people disagree with a lot of things personally in our society, it doesnt mean we dont have a right to say it and believe it and speak it, thats what makes this country great. >> jon: much of the california governmental delegation leans left, the left is often fond of saying you should say anything you want, d...

Would they be upset about that? i dont think so as long as everyone is a vegan and driving tesla cars, life is good with the left. to protect the right to free speech is fundamental and should never be given up in our socie society. no matter how disgusting or nasty the speech may be. >> jon: nancy pelosi and the mayor are all saying this is going to beéywlç dangerous anda service to the public and its safety, we should cancel this. >> those alt-right, the right wing hate groups, we have been...

White supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as americans. >>. >> sean: hate groups repugnant to everything we hold dear. thats not good enough for the media and the left wing in the country. quick side bar, where was the media, bernie sanders supporter, one of his supporters targeting republicans at a baseball practice, leaving congressman steve scalise, third ranking mub an, fighting for his life. the gunman had an assassination of republicans list. w...

Underlying notion that he could cure cancer tomorrow and other peopled in the media are going to attack him and say he didnt do it the right way. abby: of course. todd: not condemning what the president said or supporting. there are always people going to attack him. steve: i said that thing on saturday and i believe it. and i was more specific in following statements and i believe that as well. whats interesting though is ed henry got his hands on the official talking points that the white hous...

I have no idea how we get there if this doesnt do it. >> i dont know how this ends. >> but its a character test for all of them. you know, people say what would i done if i had been in nazi germany, what would i have done if i had been in the south during the civil rights movement? would i have done the right thing? now were in a similar situation. people have to look in the mirror and ask themselves are you going to do the right thing. >> everybody has their own line. and i do think you have to...

Book antifa the anti-fascist handbook. gentlemen, i kind of want to have parallel conversations with you. mark, with you on antifa and richard with you on what did the right wing hate groups hear yesterday. so richard, let me start with you before i get to antifa. what did they hear when the president said what he said yesterday? what did the kkk hear, these new alt-right groups, whatever you want to call them. >> theyve heard the same tune that the president has been singing since saturday. the...

About charlottesville. the southern poverty law center estimates there are 918 hate groups. joining me now is arno who is a former white supremacists. why are you seeing so many more now and why are they clouder than they have been in quite some time? >> i think it is very emboldening for them to see a policy that reflecting things they have been saying for a long time. they exist on fear, they cultivate on fear, that is their bread and butter. when we have an administration also dealing in fear...

Violence that is associated with it. i think that we are seeing the mainstreaming of some of these hate groups, and i think weve got to stand up against it. and what is so appalling to many of us is that the statement that the mother of heather made today is what we would have expected a president of the united states to say. rather than trying to in some way equalize those that were protesting hate with those that went there with their pronounced objective of saying that they wanted to stand by...
