mayor brandon johnson or brandon walsh from "beverly hills 90 90210"? is a guy -- okay, nine 90210 guy. a couple of things here. i think republicans risk lowering the bar so much for democrats that if they do have a convention, like wow, this is so great for biden, he didn't have protesters. and also, on the one hand i think the comparisons to 1968 are very overwrought. at the time, martin luther king jr. was assassinated. rfk was assassinated. vietnam was full on. and that was the debate. this is a different situation in that you do have people who feel strongly about support for israel, but the democrats can't figure out a way to deal with that problem, can't heal campus crazies, that is a concern. one issue is that you have a lot of money going into funding these protests. where is the money coming from? and also you have social media that is figuring that out. for both conventions, just remember it is not local police that handle security, it is the u.s. secret service, so i think every thing is going to be fine here it's peter all right, good job t

you know, in 2022, it hand picked and bank rolled mayor brandon johnson into office.o this was kind of to be expected. now it's taking this opportunity of having one of its own across the bargaining table to advance its minnesota veterans administration agenda yet. and like you said, we've already seen the results of c.t.'s activism. math and reading scores are plummeting, just one in four students can read at grade level within chicago public schools. it's even worse in math. it's even worse for low income students. chronic absenteeism is rising. enrollment is dropping as people are leaving cpts this has been while a radical slate of ctu leaders have been at the helm. >> brian: right now the average salary is 93,000. when you are in an urban environment it's harder to teach in an urban environment where have you single parent issues and you definitely have salary issues and problems with two parents work organize only one parent in the home. i get it. but, you have no -- the results are table. the average salary is 93,000. now the average pay will increase if this is

and so with the chicago police the mayor now is brandon johnson, who is a liberal, a union organizer, a public school teacher, and he's all about de-escalation didn't hear a lot about de-escalation 1968. >> but what expecting to see and hear in chicago this summer, we should remind people who don't know. hubert humphrey went onto lose that year and the unrest helped him lose. >> oh, absolutely i think a totally depends on what the state of the war in gaza is. i mean, if there's a ceasefire, if there's some humanitarian aid is getting through, if the hostages had been released, that's one scenario and i think a much less charged scenario, but if in august of 2024 the israelis are attacking raffa, there's a humanitarian bloodbath going on. >> i think it'll be as i say, very highly charged and i think you'll see a lot of anger in the streets of chicago. >> and lastly, i mean, one of the things about the protests on the college campus is back then i mean, there was hostility between like rotc students and the protesters, but i don't recall and i i wasn't alive, but i don't i don't know of
