Accused of listening in to the condolence call from president trump. she wasnt listening in. she was part of the family in the family car on the way to receive the body. that should be clear. the second thing is people need to understand what the command is all about. i understand it because i was in congress when we, the koplgzal black caucus and others, advocated for the establishment when charles taylor was brutalizing and killing his citizens in liberia. sit a very important command and shou...

>> i think as far as reassurance, they probably feel as reassured as they can feel. certainly they feel more reassured with me than other presidents from the past. it is a very bad situation. sit a very dangerous situation. and it will not continue, that i can tell you. hopefully it will all work out, okay? nobody loves a peaceful solution better than president trump. lots of good things could happen, and we could also have a bad solution. but we think lots of good things could happen. >> what w...

Chairman. thanks to all of you for being with us. news like this reverberates in a lot of ways. one that sit a very practical way. when youve got news that somebody so big has been the subject of an fbi raid, people in the immediate political orbit of a political operation react in very particular ways. someone talked about what the "washington post" reporter said, he said the news today has had a chill effect on his sources in the trump administration. >> well, i think it makes everyone a littl...

Watching the conduct of adults modeling our bad behavior as a nation. i believe the cause of these hate crimes is, in part, the racial dog whistles that were blown during the course of this campaign. the racist and ethnocentric -- this has pitted our country against one another, neighbor against neighbor. this is a very serious matter, because when you have kids, think about this, wolf, when you have children modeling the bad behavior of those folks who are older than they are charged with their...
