armed forces and i think kirby made an armed point. it's not just about civilian military positions. it's intertwined with the questions of racial justice. the u.s. armed forces are one of the most successfully integrated, racially integrated elements of american society. blacks are 13% of the american population. they are 21% of the active duarte members of the u.s. army, so the u.s. army leaders are speaking out for their people as well as for the role of the military. as for the president, we know that he's going to dallas today to appear at a white evangelical church. that's a political safe space for him. evangelicals, of course, are core supporters. we don't know what his aides are going to goad him to say that he'll accept in legislation or executive order, but we know where his heart, is and his heart is in escalating racial divisions. that's been his political history. we know that the president has this morning tweeted that -- a taunt really at those protesters who federal forced tear gas and rubber bullets on last week. he s

. >> joining us now, retired major general spider marx and retired admiral john kirby. the president was thanking them, but there's been a lot of controversy over how the national guard has been used. >> the controversy predominantly circles around the dc national guard and the way they were used in lafayette square on the first of june in the evening when the president decided to make the walk over to st. john's church and there were national guardsmen that pushed peaceful protesters out of the way and then later that evening there was a national guard helicopter that flew low over the crowd, including, you know, having them experience that prop wash and that's under investigation now. by and large, the president was not at all wrong to thank the national guard for what they've doesn't across the country, supporting domestic law enforcement, legally and ethically in concert with the orders they got from the governor. so i'm glad he called that out. but yes, with regard to dc in particular, that is still a matter under investigation and i'm sure the army will get to the

>> all right, jeremy diamond, thank you so much. >>> let me bring in retired rear admiral john kirby. admiral, to that point, while there was an omission, the president's direct reference to what has become a global reckoning, you know, on the issue of racism injustices et cetera to jeremy's point, that perhaps veiled approach the president did make by preserving american heritage. you know, is this perhaps cementing his opposition to the idea of removing any reminders of confederate leaders by name, statute, et cetera, in any u.s. military instillations? >> i don't know if i would go so far as to say it's cementing not to name the bases. but it was a carefully chosen word and certainly indicative of where his head is on this. he certainly hasn't changed his mind. you can't listen to that speech and come away with an idea that he might be softening on that. and he did talk about diversity in the ranks. he didn't go into racism in the ranks, which clearly still exists but did talk about diversity in the fact that all these cadets come from all parts of the country and all form one team

joining me kaitlan collins and rear admiral john kirby. kate, i want to start with you. the president was out at the john paul ii shrine today, calling governors weak and promising to get tougher, but his definition of tough includes having protesters who were peacefully exercising their first amendment right across the street from his house forcibly removed. >> reporter: yeah, you couldn't ignore that. the president came out to the rose garden yesterday and said he's an ally of peaceful protesters when just moments, minutes before, we watched these protesters in front of the white house being cleared out with smoke, with flash bangs, with several lines of officers who had their shields, batons, and some of them were on foot, some were on horse back. they cleared the protesters after giving three abrupt warnings within minutes of each other. and of course then you saw the president in a large security detail and several aides including his son-in-law, jared kushner and ivanka trump as well joining him to walk over to the church for the photo opportunity which he's now be
