an uproar came over what should be done to keep the american flag up to date. years there might be as many as 20 states and the banner would become a streaming that would go on and on. the flag of the united states should be 15 stripes. in the earliest years the stars and stripes were over a few merchant vessels. most americans never even saw it. the world was dominate bid super powers. the u.s. was not one of them. it was just a fledgling nation, not strong at all. the two big powers were england and france. america found herself engaged in yet another struggle. francis scott key wrote the star spangled banner. ♪♪ the stars and stripes have gone through 27 changes. i find myself in a new homeland under the flag that's strengthened itself across two centuries in times of enormous growth and change and times of trouble which have saddened the entire world. this is two as it always has been. a land of many people all with one banner each to worship in his own way. to aspire to self-expression in his own way. achieve for himself his children and his country in his

you know, when the kkk assembled, they often used the american flag as part of their gatherings. t? there are people who proudly serve and honor the values that the flag represents. but there are people who manipulate and they act as if they have a monopoly over the flag, over patriotism and when they show up to intimidate and to abuse and to try to inject fear into certain communities, they use that flag along with other flags and symbols. you saw this white supremacist march in philadelphia just recently, there was a version of the american flag that's represented there. so, i think what's scary for me is this idea of people who try to take away that message that america is for all and basically assert that america is just for them. >> yeah. i wonder what you think about that, scott. patriot front, the white supremacist group, this is a more recent example of this, they did fly this flag when they were marching this weekend in philadelphia. i think one of the more recent images that we might think of of the american flag being very visible was people on january 6th who were stor

the american flag is a symbol of unity.s us all together, you know, the virtues of valor and purity, of perseverance and justice, all of those that are part of the colors of the american flag, red, white, and blue, that's what we are aiming for and trying to achieve as a nation, and what is so sad is when you have the blm come this one particular chapter basically calling the american flag a hate symbol, we have to come together as a nation, let me tell you something, our goal needs to be to fight racism, not to fight america, our goal is to ensure that we don't destroy this country, as richard mentioned, the foundation is they are, or unalienable rights that the government needs to protect, that god created, that's what all americans, and we have to address the inequities, we need to teach american history, but we can't put this in critical race theory, and we can to basically say that the american flag as a hate symbol, it is a symbol of hope, a symbol of liberty for all, and we all as americans need to work together rega

we've been so divided now that the american flag is somehow a symbol of hate and the black lives matterwe not come together as americans and better our country instead of trying to destroy the symbols that have these really ridiculous conversations about how we hit the country in which we live? it's gotten to the point of complete lunacy and i think the american people are so tired of it. >> kayleigh: i think so, too. gillian, the founder of this group since her point has been proved. "every time we put up our post we get hatred from people who fly this flag created like to thank those people for proving a point." i don't think the point is proven, it just proves that there's trolls on twitter which exist on both sides of the aisle. >> gillian: i certainly don't agree with the utah chapter that the flag and symbol of racism. i also don't agree with tomi that blm itself is a joke. i would say the argument is irrelevant, because it turns out, see 11, if you scroll down through their post about this, the entire boondoggle was just a political advertisement for alexandria ocasio-cortez. i'm

if it's about answering the question about the american flag for the other tell is that when folks denigratelag and diminish america, they won't call out their own team. they want to call a bernie sanders when he says cuba is a great place, has a great health care system. phone call out aoc or the squad when the undermine american values. that means that they are uncomfortable -- they might mouth the right words for a moment but they're not going to defend it with all the glory that it deserves. >> laura: thanks for being with us tonight. and up next, hunter biden's high-priced art is leaving an impression of corruption. and harry and meghan with the most ridiculous award ever. raymond arroyo has it.

it's just an observation of whether, like so many other things, now even the american flag has become a symbol of the partisan divide. >> it's a shame. in a lot of ways that the flag has become a divisive symbol in some people's minds, and not everybody's, and it shouldn't be. i want to ask you something crucial here, matthew mcconaughey, listen to what he said about america. >> as we celebrate our birth as a nation, a day that kick started a revolution to gain our sovereignty, let's admit this last year's trip around the sun was a head scratcher, but let's also remember that we are babies, you know, as a country, we are basically going through puberty in comparison to other country's time lines. >> a, time is a flat circle, b, apparently america's body is changing, and having uncomfortable thoughts. what he's saying there, michael, actually, i think isn't unserious, though because he uses the puberty word and it's matthew mcconaughey in sunglasses, i think a lot of people were snickering. >> two things, number one, you're popular up until the point when you formally decide to get in

"the new york times" editorial board today flying the american flag from the back of a pickup truck or over a lawn is increasingly seen as a clue i'll be at an imperfect one to a person's political affiliation and a deeply divided nation. i could do these all night and i can't be bothered, so let's cut to the chase. in the late 19th century, sessile roads who i know is a problematic figure who created the famous scholarship that enabled bill clinton to go to oxford but in this case, he happens to be problematic but right. and the late 19th century, said "to be born an englishman was to win first prize prize in the lottery of life." a century later, to be born an american was to win the first prize in the lottery of life or death for one thing, nowhere else on earth can you become enormously wealthy just by whining about how bloody awful your country is and finally enough, the more awful it gets, the more people are waiting ashore every day on the rio grande. love of country is not a rational thing anymore than any other kind of love. it is felt. on the eve of the declaration, john adam

that's on the heels of "new york times" americans laid stomach flag is no symbol oftaly america. what in the heck. i don't even know where to start, carly, but i will ask you. >> i think that the hate america trend is a direct result of the victimization trend. we've got to a place where people get a lot of praise and they talk about why they believe that they are victims. it used to be that people never talked about their feelings and that was that. there's really been in overcorrection and people who are not victims are now saying that they are. why did jussie smollett lied about getting attacked? why did elizabeth warren allegedly lie about getting fired from a teaching job because she was pregnant although she is sticking to that story. not so sure about that one. people really crave the attention and democrats have excessively capitalized on that where they say, "okay, you feel like a victim, you hate the country, you should. vote for us because we will give you a lot of things through big government spending to make your life better." as opposed to empowering people and tel
