[ cheers and applause ] >> thank you. reverend wright's comments were not only wrong, but divisive, divisive at a time when we need unity. >> i didn't know if the speech was a good idea. but i know we didn't have any better idea. he called david axelrod and i and said he had just done a series of interviews, went on msnbc, fox. that's not going to satisfy, more importantly, i'm not satisfied about this. i can't talk about this in a 30-second answer. >> the man i met more than 20 years go is the man who helped introduce me to my christian faith. he spoke to me about obligations to love one another, care fo

or as vice president to barack obama and he gave us some pretty significant remarks earlier this month at the state department saying america is back diplomacy is back that diplomacy is not just a nice thing that the united states does but it's both in america's own make it interest to engage with allies to engage also with adversaries it was really a quite stunning reversal of trump doctrine which was which saw the world was very transactional very 0 sum and alliances that is actually a source of weakness for america america's power and standing in the world where it's biden sees as a source of strength ok so some nice words some nice gesture is out the gate from from joe biden but ultimately i mean there's still some major challenges in the relationship that it that are facing you know both by then and then also you know across the atlantic. has in counterparts the german chancellor for example just walk us through some of those. huge challenges remain absolutely i have a chance to speak with the commission just yesterday he's the chairman of the munich security conference since 2008

precedent barack precedent ba rack obama precedent barack obama said to me my actions will have a positiveact on someone that i might not ever meet in my lifetime —— president. and i don't, that is really cool. i never really thought about that. —— and i thought. i didn't want to be the first. this is something that i have guarded since i was 13, 1a years old. i constantly had to wear a mask. thinking, ok, i can't say this because i don't want someone to pick up on the fact that i am gay. i didn't want people asking questions. and i got tired of lying and i told my agent that i wanted to come out. and i wanted to still play in the nba. they reach a point where i was like, 0k, nba. they reach a point where i was like, ok, nobody else is raising their hand, i am going to raise my hand and say, yes, i am gay. i am one of those! and so what? i am going to continue to live my life and continue to do myjob. it was very weird for me to finally see what it was like to remove the mask and see how talking without the filter would be. and see how talking without the filterwould be. i and see how talk

[applause] it was not us asking whether barack obama was authentic.hat we were asking is, is he wrong? we concluded, yes. we did not ask if he was authentically black. we did not say as some southern christian leadership conference said, barack is not authentic. he is not down for the struggle but his wife does. don't expect the race industry to go away. you may not even know this. the racism, the sexism, the bigotry we are all charged with. just so you know and you will see demonstrated as the afternoon goes on, does not exist on our side. we want everybody to succeed. [applause] do you know why? we want the country to succeed and for the country to succeed, its people, it's individuals must succeed. everyone among us must be pursuing his ambition or her desire with excellence. not told as they are told by the democrat party, you really cannot do that. besides, you are a minority or you are a woman and there are too many people willing to discriminate against you. you need to depend on us. well, take a look. someone has to say this. i am thrilled for

emil jones who was really known as president barack obama's godfather, when state senator barack servednois general assembly. i was in those early years just writing letters. every week it would be a different letter to sororities, fraternities, saying -- to scholars, and so my letter showed up on emil jones' desk and i one day heard my assistant talking to emil jones and she said he had called but he secured for us a quarter of a million dollars and that ended up turning into a million dollars. over a four-year period. >> wow. >> and if it weren't for that, we would not be around. >> so do you remember the first interview? >> i do remember the first interview. the first interview -- well, let me just say we had done some -- i had done interviews before for black history month project when i was running these cable channels, which was after the home shopping channel had a debacle. and so i -- the first person that we interviewed was a person named barry mayo and he actually was known for urban radio here. and created quite a name for himself. i remember that interview because we were tr

but in 2011, and this is before xi jinping took over both party and presidency, in 2011, barack obamavery striking the words he used. "i absolutely believe that china's peaceful rise "is good for the world and it is good for america." that sounds very naive to many americans ears now. well, look, you make decisions at the time with the information available to you. and at that time, under the hu jintao administration, they were...simply had a different set of priorities. they were much more interested in integrating with asia, producing a stable co—op, more cooperative relationship with the united states. the kind of ambition, ingression, use of capabilities that xijinping adopted was simply different under hu jintao. so, at that particular time, the us strategy was still a combination of engage and hedge. and you've got to remember, in 2011, we had adopted at that time the asia pivot strategy, which is about hedging all of the risk of a stronger, more assertive china. so, even as he's talking about peaceful rise, he's building up alliances in the region. right. and you can pin a lot

as we have said for five years, illegal border crossing from mexicans was at a 50-year low under barack obama. then two years later, during the 201 campaign, donald trump started lying about caravans coming to america filled with disease and leprosy. and then -- and you have now -- well, of course, covid. we could talk about that all morning the lies he spread about covid, but here you now have texas governor with people

we need a barack obama blooied up politically. republicans are not going to do it and don't have the stomach for it. the point of this is to extend it exactly as it has been extended. to have these people go at each other's throats. she has half the country that hates her according to disapproval numbers. we've succeeded here even beyond our wildest objectives. >> you hear that? well, the campaign didn't succeed. barack obama did get the nomination and a lot of people wrote it all off as a failure at the time. but operation chaos had contributed to the polarization of american politics. and more importantly, the idea of injecting chaos and sexism, manipulation, racism, and dirty tricks directly into the artery of the republican party, bloodying people up, rather than faking compassionate conservatism and trying to get crossover votes, that ultimately would become the defining feature of republican politics. rush ultimately got his way. rush limbaugh reached millions of listeners via his golden microphone with his shows airing in s

obama came in on whether the pentagon was also really going to be a veto on some of the things barack obama was trying to do and we know those struggles they've been documented as joe biden is coming in as come in we also know from the past that there's been some ambivalence among you know major leaders in. the pentagon i mean you know i just just remember afghanistan and others where you have generals that basically mocked joe biden when he was vice president what is your sense does joe biden going to have a pentagon under general lloyd austin now secretary lloyd austin that is going to execute his policies or are they going to become a constraint and a separate tour joe biden's foreign policy course. that's a very good question stephen let me back up to the suspect on one of your comments the worst thing for a little obama did in his 2nd term if not most terms was will it be operation led into it by hillary clinton and samantha power no others but i had a conversation with him in the white house and he started a conversation with reason words there is a bias and is down toward war a

barack obama's presidency did not represent a post-racial society as we have come to understand.ented a marked departure from previous american political life and created a new image of the black man and the black family in the lives of many african-americans and americans. for whatever his legacy in terms of policies and the administration, his personal legacy and his impact on american political life will be seen as a very positive element in -- in the future as historians consider and reconsider the impact of his presidency. we're lucky enough to have a president in barack obama who understood the impact of history and the importance of understanding history, so the artifacts that we have received from the white house include the dress that michelle obama, the first lady, wore at the anniversary, the 50th anniversary of the 1963 march on washington and the comments signed by the president that he made on that occasion, acknowledging the history and the importance of the 1963 march on washington in which he makes clear that every generation has a responsibility to encrease the

let me just jump on this because barack obama, sean, in america, he's pandering.to the far left because he needs to stay relevant. that's why he's talking reparations and affirmative action. in california they try to passrm affirmative action last year. i was on one of the oppositions. it lost in blue state california. he's wrong. white people are not againstal reparations, all people are against reparations. herschel, black, brown, yellow, white can we do not believe that reparations are justified for paid people for things that happened 180 years ago. thisis is nothing more than pandering so barack obama can stay relevant to the socialists. >> sean: obama mentioned it but didn't do anything in eight years as president, herschel. we do not have law and order in blue states run by liberal democrats for decades, we do not have good schools in both of these states either. that's on the politicians. they have failed our children, they failed every family by not keeping a safe environment. >> he is a failed america because we elected him to go to office to fight for a

but let me just jump on this, because barack obama, sean, he is pandering.far left because he needs to stay relevant. that is why he is talking reparations and affirmative action. let me tell you right now, they tried to pass affirmative action last year. it lost in blue state california. and he is wrong. white people are not against reparations. all people are against reparations. black, brown, yellow, white, we don't believe that reparations is justified for paying people for things that happened 180 years ago. this is nothing more than pandering so that barack obama can stay relevant to the socialists. >> sean: obama mentioned it that he did it -- -- we don't have law and order run by liberal democrats for decades. we don't have good schools and most of the states either. i mean, that's on the politicians. they have failed our children. they have failed every family by not keeping a safe environment. >> they failed america. fight for america, not to fight for some race. they always say to heal the country with got to heal african-americans. my problem is

if we do it right, we can lynch barack obama. this is what she said and what your republican party gave a standing ovation to last night >> some of them did. >> she said if you're just patient, we can actually lynch, we can kill hillary clinton. >> stop. okay. . >> no. >> i know. i don't even like the words. >> that's what she said. >> yeah. >> and they're giving her a standing ovation. show called for a bullet in the brain of the speaker of the house. assassination for nancy pelosi. that's what house republicans gave a standing ovation to last night. she said jews, jews -- you can't compare these people to nazis. that's wrong! oh, how dare you! she said that jews, jewish kabul was responsible for the wildfires in california because a jewish laser. it was the jews' fault. my fold, how could anybody draw parallels to nazi. that woman got a standing ovation. >> some republicans stood and clapped for her. there are certain things you can't walk back. we all know that. as we have backed into the news here, along with joe, willie and

a wonderful interview with barack obama.hing that is so amazing to me is it's very consistent you know with the person he is today. but then he was you know, in the state senate, probably trying to see you know, what would be his next steps. obviously he had been the first black president of the harvard law review. we have many people whether it's run in jordan, parsons, or james jones, we'd be goldberg, i think a lot of names that people recognize are in the archives. nick jivani, sanchez, 211 of the nation's top scientists, and scientists are invisible to our community, especially black scientists, so the impact so many things like -- who was the leading climate change scientist and won the taylor prize, which is like the pulitzer prize for the stump community. he invented a computer model to predict weather patterns. i could tell you, the other thing that i would say is that we have been brought in our reach. there are probably still 12 states that we have not visited. interviews that come out of those states. alaska, and

and plus, is america really clamoring for barack and the boss? raymond arroyo has more in seen and unseen. first, as promised, liars in lab coats. that's the focus of tonight's angle. the ministry of peace concerns itself with war. the ministry of love was torture and the ministry of plenty with starvation. these contradictions are not accident tall. they're deliberate exercises in double think. well, for much of the past year, the medical media cartel has been guilty of regular deliberate exercises in double think. almost every turn, anthony fauci was a primary offender including his mask double talk. >> there's no reason to be walking around with a mask. >> putting a mask on yourself is more to prevent you from infecting someone else. >> i want to make it be a symbol. >> if one mask is good, two masks are better. >> laura: why not five? a long time people of good faith were willing to overlook the goal posts shifting because fauci led everyone to believe that normalcy, don't worry, it's around the corner. >> i would hope that by november we hav

he was a senator as you mentioned just now he was a point man for many foreign policy issues with barack obama's vice president to barack obama and he gave us some pretty significant remarks earlier this month at the state department saying america is back diplomacy is back that diplomacy is not just a nice thing that the united states does but it's quote in america's own make it interest to engage with allies to engage also with adversaries it was really a quite stunning reversal of trump doctrine which was which saw the world as very transactional very 0 sum and alliances that is actually a source of weakness for america america's power and standing in the world where it's biden sees as a source of strength ok so some nice words some nice gesture is out the gate from from joe biden but ultimately i mean there's still some major challenges and the relationship that have better facing you know both by then and then also you know across the atlantic. his in counterparts the german chancellor for example just walk us through some of those. huge challenges remain absolutely i have a chance

getting worse because it it condones bad behavior to give just one quick comparison you know when barack obama came into office there was a lot of pressure on him to investigate the bush here is whether it was the lies going into the iraq war torture allegations surveillance allegations extrajudicial drone strikes that were considered by some to be assassinations and the obama administration basically said no we want to live full re don't want to divide the nation we don't want to dig all of that up and what barack obama not as a result but but by basically was irrelevant because the the the country remaining straight extremely divided under his 8 years in power and republicans used every possible moment to further divide the nation and turn people against him were gargles if they investigated or didn't so i'm not sure how much the impeachment process plays in healing or not healing the nation for democrats this is about accountability. thank you very much willing for this face to. lebanon's medical system is in crisis as the country battles an increase in covert 19 infections the govern

confrontational stance with barack obama. those voters saw donald trump as their champion and were enraged with the prospect of them being defeated. that resulted of course in the insurrection on january the 6th, and republican leaders in congress don't have to strength right now to stand up and tell the base of the party that it was a big lie, that donald trump actually did lose the election. >> the thing is, the demographics that you point out, it is a juggernaut, isn't it? those demographics are going to happen. why pander to a shrinking base in there seems to be a shortage of forward thinking, really. >> well, exactly. republican leaders understand where the thing's headed in the long run. so do to voters, as a matter of fact. the anxiety of many of those voters is fueled by the closer we get to the point which will happen in 20 or 25 years, that america will be a majority minority country. whites will not be in the majority of the population. aft barack obama won a second term in 2012, the republican party had what they

of britain i hope not i don't think the american people can afford to go back to 8 more years of barack obama's foreign policy so we've got a new administration in the white house but a lot of new policies that hearken back to the obama days so for washington's foreign policy stance on russia that's probably going to mean another 4 years of the same old story. meanwhile the senate is mulling samantha powers candidacy for head of the u.s. agency for international development she's biden's pick for that with a just position of power served as america's ambassador to the u.n. during the obama era she pushed through several big diplomatic initiatives on his highly valued within the democratic party for her peace making efforts though her diplomacy 1st approach seems to falter somewhat when it comes to dealing with russia for years we have seen russia take one aggressive and destabilizing action after another are you truly incapable of shame is there literally nothing that can shame you russia really needs to stop the cheap point scoring and the grandstanding and the stunts. and focus on wha

but this is not, and look, i understand that the republicans rope a doped barack obama on obamacare. i don't think they did the right thing. i also know that once obama passed that without a republican vote at all, it has been years of trying to tear it apart and bring it down. my sense is this. this is a new era. this is an unprecedented time, and joe biden promised cooperation going across the aisle. he is the president. he deserves the bulk of what he wants, but it can't be my way or the highway or we're back to this game again. that's what i'm concerned about. and i think he can live with -- there's things he says i'm not going to give on, that's fine. those are things, he is the president, he should get that, but there are clearly things he can give on. i saw here there's like, i don't know if this is right, committee for responsible budget on february 3rd said there's still almost a trillion not spent from the old packages, so debt matters. it is going to effect our children. people do need help now. but i think we can get a bipartisan agreement. if we can't, then i am for bide

when biden was vice president barack obama became the 1st sitting u.s. president to visit me in mar he praised it steps toward democratic and economic reform strict u.s. sanctions against the country were lifted on me in march transition to civilian rule but u.s. support for me and maurice government began to sour because of its discrimination against muslims that included a denial of citizenship there were further concerns when civilian leader aung san suu kyi defended the military as hundreds of thousands fled as refugees. the foreign policy crisis comes as the biden administration is struggling to deal with domestic issues like a depressed economy and unemployment due to the global covert 19 pandemic that's cost roughly 450000 americans their lives is still trying to get trying to figure out what it's. these will be and most importantly it's very preoccupied with domestic crises the biden distraction really wants to focus on the endemic kind of economic crisis at home and racial tensions and it really doesn't i think it's not ready to have to confront

restaurant, the world famous soul food restaurant and we sat at the same table that i had sat with barack obama when he was running for president. and we talked about the issues that was of concern from health care to education to policing and all. but you also talked a lot about history to me. you asked me a lot of questions about shirley chism, who i worked with as a kid, about reggie jackson. i know you have a keen sense of history and my own journey. who are the people that influenced kamala harris to be the vice president of the united states? i know you, the americans know you. but there must have been people who helped to guide you, whether you knew them or studied them or not, who was important to kamala harris as a black historic figure? >> one of the first was thurgood marshal. you know, i grew up, as you know, a child of the shifl rights movement. my parents were active in the civil rights movement and thurgood together with charles hamilton houston and constance baker-motley, they understood the power they had as attorneys, as lawyers, to translate the passions of the streets

he thinks that is because 12 years ago when he came into the white house as the vice president to barack obama you remember that was just as the financial crisis was really beginning to bite and they put some money into the economy and the feel they didn't do enough they should have gone bigger quicker to try and protect the economy and you would have seen a much better recovery and in fact that was one of the things that joe biden got beaten up on on the campaign trail that the recovery wasn't as good as it could have been now there are some including those who are close to barack obama were talking about like summers who was his chief financial guy who said look there's a real problem here if you start putting money into this economy and the corner me which is on fire you could cause real problems you could cause we could dollar which is not great for exports not great for imports rather you could also really fuel inflation no on the other side of that the white house says look janet yellen the former head of the central bank the federal reserve she's know the treasury secretary she kn
