it brings me too one of my favorite museums you have as an air force veteran as an aviator in aviation enthusiast. and it's one of the most closest museums to capitol hill which is one i tend to visit frequently. especially when you do movie nights at the imax. there's a lot of great things and go on there. but earlier this year at the air and space museum you had to settle a lawsuit when students were kicked out for wearing pro-life hats. it was a huge concern still a large concern or to specially talk about the american story these young people have their rights express their political beliefs as well. now we have been assured this was a mistake on the part of the security guards being misinformed. was this reflective of a broader bias or an isolate incident? >> clearly an isolated incident. think about that day the march for life going to different parts of the smithsonian were accepted no problem atpr all. i was a mistake we have a policy that says you cannot bring in posters and placards. are there than that are entered in the security men made a mistake. and in essence what we do

with but the things you're uncomfortable with and brings me to one of my favorite museums that you have as an air forceveteran, as ayeuater and enthussists and close to capitol hill and i tend to visit frequently when you do movie nights. a lot of great things that go on there. still a large concern when you talk about the american story. you have right to express political beliefs as well. we've been ensured that this was a stake but is this reflected by a broader bias or this is an isolated incident? >> this is clearly an isolated incident. think of that day, march for life, hundreds of people that went to different sparts of the smithsonian and accepted no problem at all. it was a mistake where we have a policy that says you cannot bring in posters and placards but other than that you enter in and new security let them in. we corrected it that day. i also then made sure that we had new training and we have a policy that any time there's a demonstration on the mall, that morning all security are briefed on what the rules are to be able to make sure that people's first amendments right are not challen
