Former Congressman Col. Allen West Reflects on His Father
"I have as my guest Lieutenant Colonel Alan West, and we're talking about a lot of important stuff. We're talking about merit. We're talking about working hard. We're talking about earning your stripes. You just said, Colonel West, you just said that your father, when you were 15, challenged you in a particular way. Take us back there, because that to me is clearly foundational in your story of success. Well, let me set the stage for that. My dad was a corporal in the United States Army during World War II, and he served in a segregated army. My older brother was a Lance Corporal in the United States Marine Corps. He served in Vietnam as a combat infantryman. But at the age of 15, my dad challenged me to be the first officer in the family. And I think that's what's so important, is that we set higher standards for our children so that we can push them to achieve greater than what we had ourselves. And so my dad laid out this plan, and I knew that I had to study and do very well in high school because it was about getting accepted into a college to have a great ROTC program. I was in the junior ROTC program in high school. I ended up going to the University of Tennessee. And of course, you're not going to be an officer unless you graduate, get that degree, and then you can get commissioned. So it was that simple challenge that my father laid out for me. This was not about my skin color. It was about intelligence. It was about competency. It was about character. And throughout my military career, sure, maybe there were some officers that looked at me differently because of my skin color, but guess what? My dad taught me that you find out what the standard is and you exceed it. And no one can hold you back if that's your mentality and that's your focus. And that's how I've always tried to live my life.

Biden Wants to Send Black Women to the Moon? Col. Allen West Reacts
"Really is amazing to me that things have gotten this far. I mean, I know that Joe Biden made some comment the other day, you know, we're talking about sending people back to the moon. And, you know, I don't know if he said we want to send, you know, three black women or whatever, but it just sounds laughable. It sounds laughable. I mean, I'd love to send Barack Obama to Mars, if there's a, you know, if we're going to send to Mars, but it's sort of, I would say that it really is denigrating to black people. I would be offended if I were black, the idea that you're, you know, you're kind of, you're disrespecting me by referring to me principally by the color of my skin. There's something about that, which is itself racist, ironically. It is. And think about this, you know, right now you have the people on the left who are saying that math is racist. And of course they want to use that as an excuse, since in the public school system, most black kids are not reading or doing math at grade level. But remember, if we want to talk about going to the moon, remember that movie Hidden Figures that highlighted those black women, they were brilliant mathematicians. So why would we come back and say that you're not capable of doing math? It's a racist thing. Two plus two equals four is not right. We don't need to have any college interest exams, but just give us the standard. And what I like instead of this equity thing and this equality of outcomes and this whole focus on identity politics is the equality of opportunity. And as you well know, you know, being highly educated and an Ivy League kind of guy, the quality of education opens the doors. And you've got to set the conditions starting very early on. And when you look at the decimation of the traditional nuclear family, having that good mother and father in the home, that's what made the difference in my life. The reason why I became an officer in the United States Army was because my dad challenged me at the age of 15 to be the first officer in our family.

Mike Pompeo: DOJ Should Treat Everyone Equally
"The huge breaking news this week has been the discovery of classified documents in the homes of now Mike Pence, Joe Biden, Donald Trump. A lot of people are recognizing the disparity between the DoJ's response to president Trump and Mar-a-Lago and President Biden and now vice president Pence. It seems to me that the one person who benefits greatly from all of these breaking headlines is former president Trump because for most Americans, they're going to say, well, now it's kind of a non issue. It's a bipartisan issue. It's not just a Trump factor. It's not just his problem. And so let's turn the page on that controversy and I think Americans are reminded of the very distinctly different way our government responded to Trump's classified documents and Biden and Pence. Is that fair or do you think I'm overstating that? Well, you know, I don't want to do the politics so much. But your point about the inequity, the unequal treatment that was given is absolutely certain. I hearken back to. I served on them in ghazi committee, Mike. It seems like, seems like a long time ago. When we found classified information on secretary Clinton's server on her handheld on her BlackBerry device, I remember this incredibly well. FBI didn't rate her home justice department didn't go after her. Look, classified information matters. Everyone who handles it has to treat it appropriately. If you get it wrong, if you make a mistake, admit it, get the document backwards supposed to be. Don't bring politics in this treat. Everyone evenly. Not only Republicans, Democrats, but treat equally senior officials and private force class in the United States Army who mishandled documents. We get that right. We treat this stuff seriously. We can protect America's secrets, which at the end Mike is what this is really all about.

"So yeah, there's lots of ancient writings about these giant ancient and I should say the right, there are writings about giants and they're called that and Aki and stuff like that. But if you take them out of context, you can definitely make it sound like the story, like these aliens game here from the Dead Sea scrolls like I was talking about earlier. But in reality it's a fun one and I like that one. I hope that's ancient fucking aliens came down here and just made us what we are today kickstarted us into our journey of society and the Giants just left because the shitty fucking weather here. I love that. If you figure if they can fly all over here, they'd be able to check the weather and go like fuck wrong place. Let's not go there. But they went, they came anyway. David Ike, I don't know if you know who David Ike is. Oh yeah, they have British conspiracy theorists behind the reptilian. He says these anarchies are actually like reptilians, sure, and they kind of takes he kind of takes the stories and jams them together like that's why we have like we're all like some people are reptiles that they master DNAs together. It all goes back to the Denver airport. It's so cool. Now they're not keep repelling stuff. I will include another episode. Yeah, I can't really do the whole anonymity thing. There's too much to it because it's lots and it's super interesting. It's super fun. So if you ever want to just ancient aliens, it's all fucking just fun to watch and listen to, but how real is it? Eh. You know? There's realistic Bible. Exactly. The Bible's part real. So how much of this is real? What do you guys think about giants? Did the U.S. actually go up there and kill? Did this the thing, or is this some guy who just wanted to catch him on George norrie? So like giants just indisputably are not real. There's no fucking way. It's one of those silly things that people say for attention or to make their lives more interesting. However, if they were, you can bet the United States Army fucking killed it. No, I disagree. The united states army would have weaponized it. That's true. You think you think there's a reality where both of those narratives fit and that they killed it and then they brought it back sort of like a Resident Evil three nemesis type deal or where they trained it and then it went south so they had to kill it. They gave it green beret training. The green beret was actually a giant? No, the green beret were trained by the Giants. And that's how they're so good now. That's true. Yeah, I'm with Rick then because if there was a giant there and they did encounter it and that was the case, whatever went down, the Iraq War would have gone a lot smoother because there would have been like 500,000 giants deployed to Saddam Hussein's palace and then spider hole. When did you when did you serve mister Virgil? Also, how tall are you? That was a good one. I got out 5 years ago. Oh, okay, so I was just wondering if maybe you'd heard about giants on base, you know? Thank you for your service. I had heard about this online before, but just on Reddit, never anything from anyone I knew. You never know what kind of shit flies around.

But when I first heard him say that You know, he took a big career risk letting rank amateurs decide the content of the program. Hence the term open line Friday. We've decided to carry on the tradition but also revisit the groove yard of for gotten open line Friday favorite so in homage to rush here's a classic example. Melissa in New Orleans great to have you welcome to open line Friday. Well, hello, rush, and they could get up. Thank you very much. Guess I show my age when I tell you Mega Dido's right. Well, imagine the nose is timeless. You're right. I did. It predates probably the first six months of the program. It wasn't part of the original. You know what the history of Dido's is? No. What do you think when people call this a mega Dido's? What do you think they are actually saying just had here here. Russia agree? I really, really right. I guess. Hope you keep saying it because I really agree with you. Something like that. Something like that. Yeah, That's not what it means being with you full heartedly. That's not what now, huh? No. You know what it means? I had a call from a guy This is like in the first year of the program. And he was going on and on and on about how wonderful the show is and how much he loved it because there wasn't anything like it in 1988 89. All the rest of national media. Was the networks in the newspapers. There wasn't anything like this back then, and he just kept praising an effusive way. So I thanked him and went on the next call. And the first words out of that. Next caller's mouth was a woman to denote what that guy gets it. So did Oh, actually means I love the show. Please don't ever go away. It's too important. It's too crucial. And then part of it also means and you're always right. And don't stop being. But it really more is a expression of gratitude for the existence of the show, which I'm sure you met as well. That is exactly what I mean. Okay, cool. So they're going But now you have the exact meaning of it. I do. Thank you. And you're always informing us as always. And there you go. Let's go to Paul Washington, ST Paul, Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh show. I can. You've been talking about societal changes in our youth. Currently in the education system. I've had the privilege of serving with the United States Army for about 30 years now. Currently for the last number of years. I've had the privilege of training are young recruits as they arrive at the Army. Is it training post? And my question for army re leadership. Hey, speaking of the boxes We're now being told in society. Hey, I'm teaching these kids to obey authority. Work is a team, you know, struggle to survive. Meet obligations and gold and, hey, that's racist. What's the army going to do about this? You know, we're under civilian authority and civilian leadership. But we've still got training obligations for these beautiful young volunteers that are showing up willing to serve the nation. I'm glad to see him every day. But hey, You know, we got overcome everything that they've experienced for 18 years in nine weeks of training. I would imagine. That's probably a conflict for yourself and others because you're thinking You know, Do I follow this policy, which I know may lead. To disaster and some area of their You know, advancement or do I prepare them for So I break the rules and prepare them for the reality of whatever their mission is. I mean, it must be a conflict all the time. Well, that's the thing And here's the Army model. You know, you want to survive. Learn to be flexible. You gotta adapt. You gotta adapt to the situations. But that's the same thing for the cadre of the non commissioned officer corps, though It's your old, gnarly salted NGOs that are training the young recruits. But then it's a different chain of command that establishes Army policy. We don't make policy. We follow it over under the civilian authority in our civilian authority. He's got some ideas that aren't Traditional, and I'm sorry to break people's hearts, but generally the army and its core it cadre, his rather conservative on American values, standards and traditions. And, hey, that's part of my oath to uphold and meat. Standards and traditions of the United States Army. That's an old shit's different core credit, but it's like standards and traditions changed. So there you go now. You you You took you swore to protect and defend the Constitution. Is that part of your oath as well? That's the old every soldier takes When the guy in the Army Yes, the most frustrating thing for me as a civilian, Paul is watching some of our people in Congress or the FBI comes to mind in particular, like James Comey. How is it that someone with that much power is able to get around? That oath. And what do you know What? Don't go there Crazy. It's craziness is an old salt in feel myself playing the thing with the pumpkin on my chest hand tent, wink wink. Way. Get a class. Every soldier gets the class every year on secure documents and Internet and all that type stuff shows with the guy on his little video game, holding up a picture of somebody violated it, and I keep waiting. Okay, I'm gonna break the word here. I'm going into my yes. 50 year. When am I going to see Mrs Madam Secretary of state on there? Because every little soldier and private has been trained. Hey, you don't take secret information out of a secret site and put it off a secret site. Just stay and Wow. Well, I appreciate that, Paul. And you know, I wanted to bring that back up, because I think Someone who is on probably the thinnest ice of her life right now. And the news media may or may not know it. She may or may not know it. But A lot of Americans know it is the legend. The great the smartest woman in the world. Ladies and gentlemen, Hillary Clinton. And all this stuff that she pulled Under Obama and then helping to railroad President Trump. Well, it's starting to leak out that not only has been documented, it's been collected. And I think the reason Paul, a drill instructor. Was getting jacked up about it is because we've had Corporals arrested and sent to jail. Because they did a stupid thing like they left the document or ah file in their car. Or in their vehicle, or they or they went on leave, and they accidentally had something that wasn't supposed to leave the base on them. And it was. It was an accident. There weren't they weren't spies Or maybe they took a picture that they shouldn't have taken. They took a pitch that mom, this is what the This is what the mountains look like behind the base and a few inches of the picture when you blew it up, had part of a structure in.

But you know armed forces and as a female just so proud of you. I have to say because it's a daunting task as well and we'll get into some of that as i ask some questions but suffice it to take the gender it's to mostly men and certainly not many indian americans i would imagine so. Who did you seek your recommendation from. I had no idea that you have to get that as well from an elected official or somebody in your state and then as well can you speak to me about being an indian american and how many of us are there represented in these institutions. Yeah absolutely so actually my nominated for was the late senator john mccain of arizona so that is just so historic house special. Yeah wow wow blown away by that. He's amazing yeah. Yeah in terms of how many indian americans there were at west point. Not many at all. I mean looking back in my class. Each class has around a thousand. A thousand cuts my class. I think there was two other indian american one female one male so yeah not a lot not a lot of us there. Wow wow that's amazing. And how did you approach the former senator mccain. Who really really. it's considered Such a hero in this country for so many reasons but were you. Did you reach out to him for that recommendation and did you have any interactions Interesting here so. There's a formal application process to receive the nomination interview. So i did that. And then once i heard back that i have to go and basically sit down with a board of members that are west point graduates air force graduates naval academy graduates. Senator mccain was not physically present but all of those people were appointed by him to be there and conduct interviews. So yeah the interview. Really well they ask you all sorts of questions. Obviously they talk about your your transcripts your records your grades all of that but then they also pose these moral dilemmas. And ask you what you would do in this sort of situation. So i thought that was pretty neat and usually the. They're not black and white solutions. It's usually some sort of gray area. And they do this to get a sense of your character. Because obviously that's a very big part of going to the service academies in commissioning as an officer absolutely and you know as i'm reading interviews that you've done in the past you've indicated that they say everyone at west point fails and something or another and just in speaking with you and based on her credentials. I would wager. That failure isn't something you've experienced very often.

The Nazi Hunter: Eli Rosenbaum on Tracking Down the World's Most Wanted Criminals
"Newly appointed attorney. General merrick garland has said he will renew the justice. Department's focus on the threat of white supremacists. Eli rosenbaum knows a thing or two about ideology for forty years. He has helped the department track down and hold former nazis accountable for their world war. Two crimes a law enforcement role that has earned him. The moniker of nazi hunter. Mr rosenbaum with us now. To talk about that moniker. And that mission mr rosenbaum. Welcome to people love the pod. Thank you great to be waiting. So yes you have been called the nazi hunter. I've seen the show on amazon prime. But what does that term mean in real life. Well it's not an expression. I'm particularly fond of because it suggests that this mission is something other than what it is which is professional law enforcement. We are not engaged in on or anything sort but we have been for four decades now simply investigating and taking legal action against participants in nazi crimes against humanity. Your father escaped nazi germany in nineteen thirty eight. I believe. can you share a little bit. About how your family history inspired this work. Y'all my dad. Got out of germany lived in dresden. His brother and his parents and they managed to get visas to this great country and were able to escape in nineteen thirty eight and the attorney. General merrick garland said in his recent testimony. I think all the time about how the united states saved my family my father graduated high school in newark new jersey and then started paying back the united states by going into the united states army and he was sent to north africa and to europe and served in the third infantry division and then when they realized that they actually needed german speakers they transferred to a psychological warfare branch unit in the us. Army the incident that changed my father's life and had a big impact on the shooter was when he was sent to a concentration camp by his commanding officer to go there in a jeep with two other men to see what the army had found the previous day when they liberated dot com word spread quickly in the region that something terrible was there and my dad's co wanted. Know what it was so my father went when i was fourteen years old and we were driving on the new york state through a blizzard heading north and there was nothing left to listen to the radio. We were talking. And i love hearing. My dad's were stories especially the funny ones. Anybody who serves the military s funny stories about food or whatever and then suddenly you said you know. I was sent dot com the day after its liberation and i though fourteen was a time when there wasn't much said really about the holocaust i knew what it was and i said what did you see and i'm like my father staring out the front window because it's pretty treacherous driving and i don't hear anything from my father and i look over to the driver seat and there i see dad with his eyes glistening their welled with tears in his mouth is open and he's trying to tell me and he couldn't speak and it was the first time i ever saw my cry men of that generation didn't want anyone to see them cry usually and we never did speak about it so my beloved father lived you know into this new century and so many many decades and we did speak about work with frequency when i was home but we never returned to the subject of you say you talked about your work with your father. How did that conversation or the job evolve over. The course of forty years work has changed quite a bit. When i started actually as a summer intern back in nineteen seventy nine. Never imagining that. This would become my life's work. We were overwhelmed with investigations. We had inherited the responsibility from the former immigration and naturalization service after the attorney general took it away from them because they had not succeeded and he's had up this new office the office of special investigations in the justice department criminal division and we had more work than could really keep up with and it turned out in the first few years that the we had inherited that actually had the most merit were ones that were based on tips received directly or indirectly from foreign governments. Which at that time was to say. Mostly the soviet union occasionally another government but generally the the soviet union which had mixed motives in these cases. We started being very proactive within a few years and by the five year point and they're after nearly all of the cases that we could develop to the point of prosecution. We're wants dan. We had initiated on our own and the methodology for that was to task our staff historians. We were the only law enforcement entity in the entire hemisphere that had its own complement of historians. They were the people who could dig for the needles and haystacks and we tasks them with responsibility for keeping an eye open for the surviving remnant of personnel records and other documents that identified perpetrators or perpetrators this. They did with great success. And ultimately we assembled more than seventy thousand names of suspects mostly european also some japanese and we ran each of those names one by one against us immigration records and sometimes other records in an effort to see if we could determine whether any of those people came here assuming they hadn't changed their names

"Welcome back America. I'm here. Hewitt. I'm joined now by Brigadier General Craig Nixon retired from the United States Army after a 29 year career. After the war began on 9 11 he spent over four years in combat, including tours in Afghanistan in Iraq. Hey, was the commander of the 75th Ranger Regiment. He has also got so many honors. I can't begin to tell you Silver Star three Bronze stars The Purple Heart. Formerly a partner with my my friend Stanley McChrystal on one of the favorite guests on this show, General Nixon is now CEO of Nixon. Six solutions. Good Morning, General. Welcome to the program. Honored to have you thank you for joining me. Thanks to you 5% appreciate the invitation now, General, I'm a civilian, even though I got Navy family all around me, So I know that civilians often make mistakes when they talk about military nomine clay, cheering categorization. It has always been my understanding that well, every member of the 75th Ranger Regiment, which you commanded is a Ranger or nearly every member. Not every ranger has served in the Ranger Regiment and my right or wrong is a prelude to discussing Senator Cotton. No, You're absolutely right. It is It is confusing, but you're absolutely correct. And so I think it's a mistake that civilians make that they do that. Can you explain the difference between the Ranger Regiment and other Rangers? Sure. Well, I think I think is primary differences. It's Ranger school and the Ranger regiment. So one and it's a schools. It's the best leadership school. In the army and upon graduation from that school. Uh, you're considered an Army Ranger. Least I consider myself an Army ranger, the 75th Ranger Regiment and the three battalions associated with it or a unit. It is comprised of only people that a Ranger qualified so that that's the confusion, but I mean it, Z. The confusion, particularly as it relates to this discussion, I think is frankly, a little bit ridiculous. Did you think the attack on Senator Cotton was in any way justified given Any representation. He's been a guest on this show, maybe 300 times since 2012 once a week, and he's often said I'm a Ranger. I served with 101st in Iraq and I served with the old guard. He's never ever said he served in the Ranger regiment to me or anywhere else that I can see. Do you think he is being unfairly maligned? Yeah, I think I think it's been taken completely out of context. I I don't know Senator Cotton. I mean, I've looked at a lot of his statements into your point. To my knowledge he's never talked, claimed to have been in the Ranger Regiment or one of the Ranger battalions. He's always clearly state is in 101st of the old guard, and he's a graduate of Ranger school, so I think And this is not the first time it's come up has come up a number of times and frankly, one of the reasons that I agreed to come on and do the show is I just think this argument it distracts from the things that we ought to be focused on. Well, it was coincidental that I am reading a book by a fellow named Michael Walters. A congressman and I'm reading his book Where your diplomat Because my son went to work for him in Congress recently. And coincidentally, I'm reading about one of his hated battles in Afghanistan. I mean, very heated. People are getting killed and shot and he writes The Ranger creed that we recited. Every day in that hellish school was burned into my head. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy. He's a green beret did not serve with the Ranger Regiment, but it clearly has an impact on every ranger who goes through the school. That's correct, and that's what it was designed for on. Frankly, the school was designed before the modern day Ranger units were designed, so it was a follow on to the school. What was it what I think Go ahead, General. I think you know if you really want to understand that there's one Ranger Hall of Fame and that Ranger Hall of Fame is comprised of two different groups of people. People that served in the Ranger Regiment and the battalions and people that are Ranger qualified. So clearly, the Rangers who created the Ranger Hall of Fame believe they're both inside that umbrella. Do. Members of the regiment generally resent The Ranger qualified as describing themselves as Ranger. You know that This is a little bit like inside baseball. I mean, if your officer club drinking beer, you're going to have arguments over my in. It's better than your unit. If you haven't done as much as I've done that Z clearly, that's a discussion. It's not a political discussion and is not it and we shouldn't be using it to disparage people's character, because I just think it's wrong. Well, that is, I think the bottom line now, General, would you talk to me a little bit about what happens in Ranger school? Tom does not. Elucidated and I've read about it in the waltz book as well. But what is it? What is it that they do? That makes people a different kind of soldier than they were when they began the school. The focus on Ranger school is leadership in combat, and what they try and do is a friend replicate combat in the in the only way you can in peace time, and that's two To provide stress, and they provide stress through lack of food. Lack of sleep, continuous movement, hard exercise peer interaction, So it is an extremely stressful of that that you're evaluated. From the time you begin till the time time you finished, it is probably the closest replication you're going to have to leading in combat. And that's the crucible that you go through. And that's why it's such an important school leadership school for all of the army, not just for the people going to the Ranger Regiment. Now the distinction between special forces is often also mixed up. All special forces served often under the special forces come in, but they each have their unique Eat those and creeds correct..

"Of State Colin Powell giving his take on the controversy surrounding the U. S Army bases named after Confederate generals, he spoke on CBS's face The Nation. I would rename the bases. We really hadn't thought about that a few years ago.

The Big Story
A Turning Point: Race Relations In Sports
"It has now been more than four weeks in George. Floyd was murdered nearly a month since we all watched him. Take his last breaths. It feels like so much is different, but real actionable change that takes time. Many who took to the streets in protests have now resumed their daily lives, so now seems appropriate to discuss how sport will handle affairs moving forward. As North American teams and Leagues Continue Their Return to play processes. It is vital that the conversations and promises made when the racial issue was hottest that they do not go away. In a few moments, we will welcome in our panel to discuss how that should happen, but first a look at how we got here in the first place. He will have color have been argued about beliefs, and that's not right. That's not right by any was standards. The point he was making gut twisted from the start. The beginning when Colin Kaepernick I made is public protests peacefully heap I sat on the bench during the national anthem to bring awareness. There's a lot of things that need to change once one specifically police brutality. There's people being murdered unjustly and not being held accountable. It was the summer of two thousand sixteen, when he bursts truly used his platform as an NFL quarterback to speak out against systemic racism by police in the weeks leading into that preseason payment. San Francisco capper Nick had watched. We all had. To white officers pinning down Alton Sterling. And pumping. into his chest and back. He saw the traffic stop in Minnesota when Philander Casteel was killed in front of his girlfriend in charge. And captured it could not understand how mental health therapist Charles Kinsey could be shot by police when he was lying on the ground with his arms up in the air, people of color have been targeted by police. Cops are getting paid leave. For killing people. That's not right. That's not right by anyone's standards. And yet from the beginning law in. pre-game gesture was misrepresented and downright manipulated. The Christ came that he was disrespecting the flag that it was a slap in the face to military personnel. But when active soldiers pointed out, they serve to provide their citizens with the freedom of speech that capture nick was exercising. That narrative quickly was quashed when army veterans who had been in battle, echoed that very sentiment out of national football league buildings team needs I would be disappointed if any of our players didn't stand up for the national anthem personally. I, look at that as a salute to the people who have paved the way for us. Our Organization believes that. You should. Respect the flag and so you'll save those individual decisions to expression show. On individual form. And that became the prevalent message. Don't do it here. Stick to sports. The underlying tone. How dare you protest without our approval we're. Do you get off? Colin Kaepernick criticizing anyone in another uniform. Right the men and women lead for this, I- scenic. First hand. For. Somebody do that to get paid millions of dollars. It's ridiculous. Cabinet remained undeterred. United States Army Bet. Nate! Boyer who did tours of duty in Iraq, and Afghanistan encouraged him to kneel and not sit. By, taking a knee voyeur told him you show your respect for fallen brothers that way. So capture nick did. And then more NFL players followed. And yet the public and political conversation in the US would not steer toward police brutality. No matter how much star athletes peacefully attempted to. And the leader in America's biggest chair. Amy Shirley Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners? When somebody disrespects our flag to say, get that son of a job appealed right now out each fire. I! Capture Nick became a source of division for standing up against injustice. He hasn't taken a snap since that twenty sixteen season. And at this year Super Bowl USA. Today's jared bell minced no words on why that is I. Think it's pretty obvious. He's been blackballed for Colin Kaepernick not to have a job is just. It's the worst look for the NFL. No conversation was more dominant inside NFL. Locker rooms that season than the Kapernick one teams are made up of players of all ages of all backgrounds of so many ethnicities. If you actually want to listen to different perspectives. If you're an athlete who would want to hear what your peers had to say, there would be no shortage of takes to soak in. But fundamentally the want would be to understand capper knicks fundamental point. After George Floyd one of the League's biggest stars reminded us that many still didn't I will never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States of America or our country. Maybe that was the crossroads moment because the reaction to. It felt like something had changed almost as. That won't cut. It anymore drew. brees in the rest of the NFL were told right away, the new. Orleans quarterback came under fire. The players in the league had just about enough of the establishment silence. They had captured message. They were not gonNA. Let owners and Roger Goodell get away with it this time. Would have other Jewish Knowledge George if I was. I was George Void. Jewish. And say hi in. Regard. To me right. Breezes all pro receiver found Dallas's bruising runner and Houston's electrifying quarterback, and Kansas City Super Bowl Mvp. And Obi. And they all let you know. We. Condemn Racism and assistant. Matic oppression of black people. National League, admit wrong and silence our players from protesting. Also. Black lives matter black lives matter. Like loves. To Have Patrick Mahomes the next superstar the NFL. Front and center. That was massive. And the very next night the commissioner uttered the words you never imagined would happen. We the National Football League Immune. We were wrong for not listening NFL players earlier. And encourage all speak out in peacefully protests. Read the National Football League believe black lives matter. Progress. Probably a step forward. You want to believe so. The day after the commissioner changed his tune, breeze went to social media again. He'd already made his hollow apologies without actually saying sorry, and he finally seemed to be listening to what some teammates had to say, and after all of that even drew brees somewhat stood up to the president. It won't Change Donald Trump of course, but maybe it will make others think. Perhaps it will create more uncomfortable conversations to allow for a greater understanding among all of us. And at the very least it has given others throughout sport. To have the freedom to finally say their piece open believing they may at last be heard. Or country is in, trouble. Basic reason is race. You're seeing an example of future. That's fighting for you for you. Right now a fine for you got a grandfather that march legs. Dr King in the sixties. And he was amazing. You'll be proud to see us all. Got Pushing? Forward Doing Casey marched with his family. Members of Detroit's organization. An NBA coach using his voice. Over in Jacksonville Jaguars personnel were among the demonstrators. North Philly's finest. He walked. Kyle Lowery's we can. Priorities were set. This though. This is just the start. To silence of countless elites spoken loud. Until you see action from an, don't forget by the leaks themselves. We wonder what the real commitment to progress actually is. What capper protests was about from. The beginning can no longer be debated. And it is now crystal clear to all of us that no athlete should just shut up and dribble. Nelson Mandela famously said. Sport has the power to change the world. Since George, Floyd perhaps we have learned that change can come more from our sporting icons using their voice platform in pursuit for justice than any jumper were swing. Or goal or touched them. Stick to sports. Sure let's stick to sports bettering the world in a new way. Let's start hearing the real message now. And most of all, let's not get the words and actions like Hafer. Knicks twisted. When he tried to begin the real conversation. Before US AGO!

Voices from the Holocaust with Leon Bass
"Leon Bass was born in Philadelphia on January twenty. Third Nineteen, twenty, five, the fourth of six children. His parents were born in South Carolina in the eighteen nineties at the beginning of the Jim Crow era. Just after the first World War they joined the Great African American Migration North they settled in Philadelphia with the hope of making a better life for themselves and their children. As a young man during World War Two Leon volunteered to serve in the United States army. In, April, nineteen, forty, five, he, and four others from his unit arrived at the Humboldt, concentration camp in Weimar Germany just one day after it was liberated. Forty three years later on March Sixteenth Nineteen eighty-eight Leon is sitting in a studio in union new. Jersey. He's dressed in a plaid, Brown and based Sport Code. White Shirt and striped tie. He wears aviator, glasses and sports trim black moustache. Leon's interviewers are Bernard Weinstein and mark lender. Leeann recalls the racial discrimination. He experienced as a child in Philadelphia. I went to the school. WHERE THEY! Always taught us. To Care and love each other, but also have love of country. We pledge allegiance to the flag every day, just like every other young person in the city of Philadelphia do. And we said with liberty and justice for all. Just like everyone else only to go out and find as we matured. That was not so as I found out when I went to the theater. When I bought my ticket I was directed to the balcony. It was mandated that I go there. Because I wasn't good enough to go down on the main floor. It's beginning to get a little in the site to the society and how the Society viewed me. A person of color. And we. Always went to the park. And I recall how I look through that wire fence at this large swimming pool. Which I knew, I could never use I would never be admitted. because. The society was saying loud and clear to me. That I wasn't good enough. Those are the kind of things to. Make. You feel bad. I finished school in Nineteen forty, three. I went out and I I volunteered. And when I went down to the induction center. Institutional racism smacked me right in the face. because. Sergeant was there and. He told me go one. When I went through the door, and he told my wife go another way, and so I went into an all black unit safer, the officers they will white. When you enlisted, you realize the military was segregated. You. Don't even think about those things until it hits you in the face. And of course, the thing that made it more real more painful was the fact that they send US south. They send us right into the heart of the place where people would. would. Be a confrontation. We went to camp. Wheeler Georgia for Infantry Basic Training And we spent quite a time in Mississippi right in camp McCain. We spent almost a year there. and. We went on maneuvers into Texas Louisiana. And we came back to little. Rock Arkansas. Now all these places I was given the message. of WHO and what I was as far as the society was concerned. And it was really frustrating to think that you have made a commitment to your country and yet your country is saying to you. All Right? You're okay, but only so far. I went into Macon Georgia. Attempted to get a drink of water while I was in their simple thing like a drink of water. Because, you walk around the town Ucla Fountain drink i. went to drink at. Someone grabbed me and say boy. You don't drink here. Pointed to the sign, which said White. And directed me to. Another sign was said colored. Where was another fountain and you of course in uniform at the time happened? Soldier like all the other lack soldiers we will all experiencing. This was ear perception, though that the black troops generally though. fully understood the fact that. While the rhetoric of the war against Nazi racism, and so forth will was fine. In practice, the country was doing something entirely different. It was as though you were just a fringed. Country had was to personalities Channel One way. We may make wonderful announcements. You know we we've talked about engineer. Christian ethics and We're going to make the world a better place for democracy and all that other jazz, but then when you cut down to a real thing and you start seeing the way they operate. Things we're not. And so I? Began to be an angry, frustrated, young black soldier. After my experiences. I really did not want to be. On A. Specially after. Having to stand on a bus. When there were no seats at the back, having to stand up for hundred miles and looking at empty seats. Didn't endear me. To to my country. Couldn't eat in a restaurant. Had to go around the back. Knock on the door to get food. And I'm in a uniform I. And I. Prisoners of war from Germany. Being allowed to go in a restaurant and sit down to eat, and I was not entitled to for the same opportunity.

Minnesota AG Ellison warns: ‘It’s hard to convict the police’
"We're confident in what we're doing. But history does show that there are clear challenges here. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison says. Despite the national outcry, it will be an uphill battle to convict the former police officers. What I do not believe is that one successful prosecution can rectify the hurt and lost that so many people feel Minneapolis. Police have released two hundred thirty five pages of highly redacted personnel records for the four officers involved in Floyd's arrest. They show Derek Shaaban. The officer now charged with second degree murder at. At least seventeen previous misconduct complaints with the department, he was given a notice suspension, and was also reprimanded for removing a woman from her car. In two thousand seven Alexander Chung had been an officer less than six months at the time of Floyd's death prior to joining law enforcement, the four men held a variety of jobs including working at McDonald's target home, depot and service in the United States army, they now face between ten and forty years in prison, if convicted and Floyd's
