you see during jim crow, during jim crow, the black family was together.were not just conservative. black people have always been conservative minded but black people voted conservatively. it's that during jim crow, the black family was together. that's what people have taken issue with. what are they missing? >> frankly, what's really happened is that you have, you know, democrats and you have the biden campaign and some in the media want to twist my words for political purposes. the overarching issue is talking just about black families and why you're seeing a trend of black people leaning towards republicans in this election cycle and probably in electional cycles to come. part of that is when you're raising families, raising kids, et cetera, you're thinking of all the public policy issues, all of the economic issues, and it's leading people to have divergence in political thoughts. that was the only point. the stuff that comes up about jim crow and twisting my words saying i was being nostalgic or jim crow was good for black people, that's all politica

i did say jim crow. i did reference it three times. >> four times. >> that's not to say it was better. i never said those words never came out of my mouth. when are you going to get that through your skull and everybody else's skull? i never said that. and the difference between me and other republican, i'm not going to sit here -- >> you said it was better for us under jim crow to bring families together, did you say that? everybody's lying. okay. >> go look at my words. >> well, all right. >> did i say jim crow was better, no, i did not. i did not say jim crow was better. i never said any of those things. i was talking about black families and black family marriage rates during that time. >> okay. then what did jim crow do to contribute to black families? hello? >> i'm not talking -- oh my gosh -- >> you said that you said under jim crow black families, so explain to me what jim crow did to help black families. >> the marriage rates during the jim crow era were higher for black families because of the

the aggressiveness of crows is a seasonal phenomenon, ornithologists explain.is due to the appearance of chicks. the task of caring parents is to keep people away from the cubs that have fallen out of the nest. during this period of the year they grow up and prepare for their first flights. often it seems that the chick is sitting and squeaking, as if asking for our help. in fact, he is simply indicating his presence to his parents in this way. hoodie as a bird such, let's say, the most intelligent, cunning. she very quickly understands who is trying to quote-unquote help her. the dangerous period lasts, as a rule, about two weeks; as soon as the chicks begin to fly, the crows will stop attacking the residents of the megalopolis. this period does not last long, as soon as the chicks, literally a couple of days, a maximum of a week, the chicks grow up, they get stronger, they learn to fly, when they already begin to fly, they move freely in this and other territories, if a person nevertheless becomes a target for the crow's eye and aggressive attacks city ​​bird

crows attack residents of minsk. social networks are flooded with videos that show unexpected and violent incidents. attack of birds on people. some of the victims turn to doctors for help after being injured by sharp beaks and claws. and if such sudden dives cause bewilderment and fear among pedestrians, ornithologists have their own version of what is happening. scientists say aggressive behavior of crows is typical at the beginning of summer during the period of offspring behavior. ilya tsvetkov understood the nuances of birds. diving, accompanied by loud screams from the tops of trees in situations where passers-by are not expecting them at all, crow attacks are increasingly being caught on smartphone cameras, videos are going viral on social networks, what is the reason for such aggressive behavior of birds, we will figure it out, i just missed the phone, oh my god my, the goron made an attempt on my life, a selection of footage of violent attacks is updated every day, the story is from a resident of minsk galin

the other thing is, jim crow was an explicit race law you can't divorce race from jim crow. that's what it was. but david, the new york times just published a lengthy profile on north dakota governor, donald berger, who is not well-known nationally but emerges as a possible option for donald trump. also appreciates his full head of hair for the people who are less familiar with him what would governor bergen bring to the ticket? >> i actually think it is down between bergen and rubio. who knows? those are my parlor bats. and here is why bergen. nobody knows who he is. they will probably never learn who he is and would make it all the way through november without bergen taken a bit of the spotlight from donald trump. that is very important that nobody cares about the vice president. secondly, he is very wealthy so he can write a check and contribute. and three, i think he and trump really share some type of business profile that they get to admire each other by being on the same ticket. he is your anonymous pick that would fit nicely and not attract a lot of scrutiny unless h

crows attack residents of minsk.howing unexpected and violent attacks of birds on people. some of the victims turn to doctors for help after injury sharp pecking claws. and if such sudden dives cause bewilderment and fear among pedestrians, ornithologists have their own version of what is happening. to figure it out, i just typed on my phone, oh my god, there was an attempt on my life, a selection of footage of violent attacks is updated every day, minsk resident galina shpag has her own story, while walking in the park she was unable to avoid a winged dive, fortunately there were no injuries, collapses a crow, she screams, she flaps her wings, which of course scared me great, so... well, somehow, somehow it happened that she left me pretty soon, i didn’t have to quickly come up with something. hooded crows have long been no longer a bird in a big city, they have perfectly adapted to living side by side with humans, they easily find food, crack nuts and acorns, throwing them under the wheels of cars, steal food from

>> other, the black family and jim crow specifically, i mean, jim crow, as you know, was a period of racial segregation of racial terror. why would you make that connection? >> all i was doing was referring to the time periods when you talk about the history, the historical timelines in america, and coinciding with black families and what their marriage way in black families are the overarching point is obviously talking about what polling shows today, that about 20 he, 25% of the black vote, depending on what paul, you're looking at, is leaning towards supporting republicans and supporting president trump the corollary to that is, is that when you're in a family unit, husband and wife live in together working together, thriving together. you're raising your kids, your thought process is now talking about building generational wealth what am i leaving to my children? what kind of communities where i want my children to come up in? what are the educational opportunities? what's going on with the economy? how does an m to a broader level hollows foreign policy and all these other publi

he is the one that invoked jim crow. to joe's point.ehavior at the time, whatever it is about society or black families are black communities back then. he decided to invoked jim crow as the reference point. when you talk about the economy and issues you can say in the 20s and 30s but he decided to use jim crow as the conceptual framework for the point he was trying to make. >> he was trying to put it in the framework. i get you may believe donalds was misspeaking when he said jim crow. i take issue with the broader points he was making as well. the idea that it was specifically johnson and welfare movements to try to help people. part of the reason why there was so much backlash against those programs was because even though they help white people a lot there was a movement amongst the right to try to cut funds to welfare programs by convincing white people it only helped black americans. there are so many socioeconomical things happening at the same time, divorce rates went up across the board, you have issues dealing with -- even uni

i think he wishes he could take it back because it was stupid to reference jim crow, part of what hen america, that's a legitimate interesting discussion but he didn't do that and he threw in jim crow and it just messed up and made everything he said wrong. ayman, bishop meant what he said and in essence, what did bishop say? he said donald trump is being treated every bit as poorly as black americans when black americans were discriminated against, segregated against, lynched and killed and institutional racism and our justice system. he meant it, bishop meant it, and that is atrocious to compared donald trump to that. >> very valid points there, joe, on the meaning of both, let me play for you donalds was on with joy reed, let me play for both of you what he said, listen. >> if a black man, a black father could not protect his wife, his son, or himself from lynching and violence, how is him being in the home team that that is an era that was better for the black family or that we should think of is a good thing. >> first of all joy, i never said it was better for black people in ji

okay, that's uncalled for. >>> during jim crow could your family have existed?nterracial marriage. your wife is a conservative activist. could your family have existed at all during jim crow? >> no, it could not, joy. and we all know that, but that's why i am blessed to live in america today as opposed to america during that time. but we cannot ignore the realities of not having fathers in homes. that is important for black people today and all people today as we move forward for a better america. >> joining me now by phone is my friend joy reid, host, of course, of "the reid out" who just interviewed republican congressman byron donalds, the man who suggested jim crow was somehow a time of nostalgia. speaking nostalgically about a segregationist era. >> thank you for having me. we invited him on because he's so odd to say the least. a source of mine knowledge about the event knows the people who were in that room who were black were already supportive of donald trump, so it wasn't one that really attracted a new audience. what really got me about what byron don

before that era was the jim crow era.ing i would say is that the scrutiny really came from the biden campaign and from democrats. you know, i'm 45 years old. black man in america. i know the history of jim crow quite well. i would never say that jim crow was better for black people. >> byron: for all his support for the former president, his belief in the republican party, he acknowledges his party historically did not prioritize black voter reachout. the reality of america today still is the vast majority of black voters are not conservative republicans. >> i think the reason why that has been the case historically is because there's not been a lot of comfort with black people in the republican party. for the last several decades, just hasn't gone to try to get black voters and court black voters and build relationships with black voters. president trump has changed that view. >> byron: but has donald trump changed the gop enough to sway more black men to vote for them? a demographic perhaps less devoted to a party, but

there jim crow, the black families had no rights.ility to protect his wife or his children from lynching. they did not have the ability to earn a living that could support that family. typically, the mom in that family never saw her kids all week because she was working in a white woman's home while the father was working the fields. he worked the seasonal picking time. these families were broken, poor, and facing violence. the idea that was somehow better because they were living in the same house is insane. >> well, joy, listen, we need to continue the conversation. there is a lot to unpack. joy reid, host of the reid out. thank you very

and as when made my case with they called jim crow conviction, they're called jim crow jury laws. they allow injury that is not unanimous to convict someone of the crime, the effect of me. and you still have individuals in prison right now disappeared and affected by the jim crow long. the thing with me to tell them that they need to hear that a lot of gas in down there and don't just on my way is be from now. i back the the good now for the 25 years or 2. it shows. right. the way it was more but i fear comfortable more around people. i had been in prison. i just reached out to show you want to been home 2 or 3 months before me the already doing the ran into you 25 years. i'd be watching. give you people understand a thing that we've been through, you know the yeah. the behind a lot of people are allowed to do. so i'm going to move to these 2 to us. the every prison in the state of louisiana, all built on was lane plantations and they drive, you likes, ladies, they got the hosses. they got a full well they got, they got they watching over you telling you to get back to work you ha

we can talk to our grandparents who grew up during jim crow.y. we can talk to our parents to know that black americans were not better during jim crow. i don't think he could live in state like florida with the history of the state of florida and think that things were better for us. i can tell you, he would not want to go back and live under a jim crow. court decisions, they're wrapping themselveses in the cloak of mlk or trump called himself, you know, the nelson mandela of our time because of his criminal prosecutions andro dan bishop this week was talking about how donald trump was tweeted the black voters were in alabama in 1950. i mean, where does that impulse to coopt civil rights come from as it concerns the broader conservative project? >> i mean, i think that the most charitable version is that they are trying to pick off iconic moments and, you know, play them and everybody, you know, reveres mlk and so you cite to dr. king and you're citing to an icon. i got to say, alex, i think it's just trolling at this point. i mean, i don't thi

all of this on crows jet and really intersect. i mean, these newly revealed flights, it only adds to what we know were other luxury trips that justice thomas enjoyed, bankrolled by harlan crow. there was also but 2019 trip to indonesia where justice thomas stayed on crows mega yacht. so there have been a lot of previously undisclosed travel that's been gifted by harlan crow is a gop megadonor. he's active and conservative causes. justice thomas, though, i'll note anderson has always it's described him as just a dear friend and says they've never had any discussions about cases before the court. >> they've wow, i mean, that that's you you're hanging out with justice supreme court. that's kind of amazing to think. has justice thomas explained why he did not disclose these these trips? because he talks about his love of staying in for vrb travel and drawing ran on a bus yeah. >> so he hasn't directly answered about these recent disclosures, but his attorney just released a statement tonight. it says this. it says the formation that h

. >>> coming up, repubs try to report black voters by conjuring jim crow. discussing that strategy, coming up. >>> but first, american presidents can't part estate convictions, especially their own state convictions but donald trump has a plan for that. more on the legalese behind that, coming up after the break it removes 9ease and grime in half the time. dawn powerwash has 3 cleaning boosters not found in traditional dish soaps that remove food and grease 5x times faster. and, because it cleans so well... you can replace multiple cleaning products for counters, stoves, and even laundry stains. try dawn powerwash dish spray. brand power, helping you buy better. you know, i spend a lot of time thinking about dirt. at three in the morning. any time of the day. what people don't know is that not all dirt is the same. you need dirt with the right kind of nutrients. look at this new organic soil from miracle-gro. everybody should have it. it worked great for us. this is as good as gold in any garden. if people only knew that it really is about the dirt. you're

crow. go back, family wants to go during black people not just conservative always a big conservative library, for more land people voted conservatively was right about one thing during jim crow, while people were together, it was called segregation. >> they were literally only together. that's part of what was supposed to change. but i digress those comments rigueur, immediate backlash from the biden campaign to black lawmakers and some call the comment quote, ignorant revisionist history and coding congressman bennie thompson here. anyone who believes what congressman donald says is sick in the head unquote that just last our congress, myles explained to my colleague and friend abby phillip just what he meant frankly, what that is is about the empirical facts that before the great society, before lyndon johnson's policies, there was more of black families united, united the marriage rate in black america was significantly higher before the great society well, that's true. marriage rates f

during jim crow the black family was together.re black people were not just conservative minded, but more black people voted conservatively. >> bill: trump v.p. contender is with me now. good morning to you. quite a dust up. i know you disagree with what joy reed was saying on msnbc. what were you trying to say there? >> first of all, what we're talking about in philadelphia a couple days ago was the importance of black families and a united black families, growing black families in the united states. that's very important. lyndon johnson's policies, the great society and other issues led to a massive decline in the marriage rate in black america. that is an empirical fact. the problem the democrats want to create. creation on their part. because i said jim crow they think i'm talking about some golden era. what is important here in this entire phony controversy is that joe biden, his campaign, democrat leadership and terrible press want to make an issue. they want to gas light black people in the country and make black people thi

trying to sanna size or romanticize or whitewashed jim crow.ore palatable for people who -- not black people but everybody else. and i do not respect people. especially people who know better. we talked about marco rubio and tim scott, the senators, a couple weeks ago, but what they've been saying about the criminal justice system and so on and so forth. as a black elected official, especially a black man as reverend sharpton said from brooklyn, who knows better, he has a responsibility to speak the truth. and as they like to say, -- >> i think that face says it all. >> coming up on velshi, ali will be talking about donald trump's starts of her division and the potential of the dangers of the second trump term. that is coming up. we will be right back!

i'm still thinking about the whole counting crows. talking, though, about our favorite counting crows song. yeah, and i couldn't really come up with one, so that's what i was. i was pondering anyway. >> long december for me. i like that. that's a good one. >> okay, that's a good one. time now for a live check on your bay area traffic. you're looking out there at the macarth their bonds and solve problems, all done through a support center called cope, which stands for counseling options and parent education. >> and earlier today, we spoke to the executive director of the organization about the work they do to help children and families. >> family support center has a 13 year long history of being a holistic services agency. our flagship program, and what we were founded on is the positive parenting program, which is also known as triple p, and this program, which administers is largely in contra costa county. but we do serve surrounding counties as well. is the premise of providing parents with the tools necessary to help deepen the p

under jim crow the family was together and on and on.es took exception to the communities. here's his response on the house floor. >> mr. speaker it has come to my attention a so-called leader made the factually inaccurate statement that black folks were better off during jim crow. that's an outlandish and outrageous and out of pocket observation. we would not better off when a young boy named emmett till could be brutally murdered without consequence because of jim crow. we were not better off when black women could be sexually assaulted without consequence because of jim crow. we would not better off when people could be systematically lynched without consequence. how dare you make such an ignorant observation? you better check yourself before you wreck yourself. >> you better check yourself before you wreck yourself. think they call that a mic drop moment. joining me at the table to talk about it all, democratic congresswoman jasmine crockett of texas. who's been dropping few mics of her own. >> listen, there's a clear reason why i pr

what we reported that crowe pays for vacations.ome sort of lunch meeting. we recently talked about a trip where he flew thomas to yale where a. >> and it also gives rise to the seemingly lie that these are what, personal hospitality exemptions. maybe, and emphasis on maybe one thing if you're flying to crowe's family reunion to bali it's another that you're flying in crowe's yets to have luncheon. >> and there are laws that makes him disclose gifts. thomas has not reported these flights before. every ethics expert has said he should. we're waiting to see what they come up with. >> are you optimistic? you have the senate involved in this part of the reason, we know about this is because the senate democrats got to the bottom of it because crowe collaborated with them to an extent. is there more teeth to their work? >> they authorized subpoenas and what they said is what was released this week is not everything they found. they have a full investigative report coming later in the summer. you know, i have no reason to believe that wha

the poverty rate in jim crow was more than 55%.ng to black people. though this was at a black voter event. this messaging is not for us. none of us actually believe. we can talk to our grandparents who grew up in jim crow. we could talk to our parents. my dad was born in apartheid mississippi. the lynching in the country. we can know that times were not better for black people under jim crow. i'm going to assume this is sheer cynicism. i can't believe he could live in a state like florida and believe times were better for us. and i promise you, he would not want to go back and live under a jim crow. >> you know, what is so incensing, there is so much about it, dahlia. but the way in which the right wing tries to co-op the civil rights era as its own, where they are not criticizing the actual policy legislation, they are wrapping themselves in the cloak of mlk or trump called himself the nelson mandela of our time because of his criminal prosecutions. and dan bishop this week is talking about how donald trump was treated the way bla

during jim crow, could you family have existed? you are in an interracial marriage.family have existed at all during jim crow? >> no, it could not, joy. we all know that. that's why i'm pleased to live in america today as opposed to america in that time. but we cannot ignore the realities of not having fathers in homes. that is important to our black people today and all people today as we move forward for a better america. >> we are out of time. what i'm grateful for is we do not live in the jim crow era and that fathers do not face lynching. >> i'm very grateful of that. >> perhaps don't bring up jim crow when you're trying to make that example. >> that was a small part of my interview with byron donalds last night. we'll be dissecting that with our friday political panel. basil smikle, our brand-new msnbc political analyst, the public policy director at the roosevelt house institute of hunter college, and democratic strategist and clay cane, host of the clay cane show and author of, the grift, the downward spiral of black republicans from the party of lincoln to t

jim crow. they were inspired by jim crow laws. that's correct. and i'm wondering to what extent judge waring was aware of that. did what was happening in europe influence him at all? he you know, the answer is he did know about the he did know about the nazis and the death camps and actually, when he retired, he became a active member of the board of the conference of christians and -- in new york. he was also on the board of the aclu, which is kind of interesting. so he was he was aware that that there had an had fought for liberty and had fought for for the police and the whole sort of nazi regime. and, yes, i think it influenced him and in his own views on race and justice. can you all please join me in thinking, judge gergel, for a wonderful presentation presentation. so. so if you haven't done it already, i suggest you go right out and order book on amazon. it is a it is an easy read. it is fascinating. publisher would like that but and that's just in return for the favor did earlier by the very very nice compliment you paid to the historica

representative donaldson was trying to romanticize jim crow. my grandparents lived in jim crow.ols. my dad integrated schools, and i can tell you, it was fothem. and that's why if we can't get justice for the tulsa race massacre, which is the largest act of domestic terrorism in the history of this country, over $200 million in property damage, over 3000 people disappeared and never heard from again, you had so many homes and businesses, over 1500 destroyed, and two survivors who experience this as little girls, if they cannot get justice -- of the federal government cannot use its influence and power to ensure justice, i am very fearful for our future as a country. i think this is a great issue for president biden and vice president harris to make this an issue. as you said, president biden came to tulsa. he promised my clients he would help them get justice. this is an opportunity for the vice president and the department of justice to step in and make sure they get justice and show that the white house cares about this issue, it is all a black america cares about justice. >>

they are getting this from harlan crow?> they authorize the subpoena but did not issue it and it became a leverage in their negotiations and they came to a deal where he's giving them information over the last seven years potentially not just travel but other things. we will only find out when the full investigation comes out. >> can we show the bar chart? it's tough to read. which one is thomas? out there he is on the left. we might need to raise up that bar after we we price these ones in. maybe this summer we will get more. can i get your response to something justice alito said about your reporting because he talks about you and i want you to respond. it's something he said recently. surreptitiously recorded. >> there are groups that are very well-funded by ideological groups that have spearheaded these attacks. >> like who? >> propublica gets a lot of money. they have spent a fortune investigating clarence thomas. >> have you spent a fortune? are these ideological attacks? >> yeah, it was disturbing to hear this. it's.

one of the striking things we learned this week is justice thomas was using harlan calero's crows jetle of the money, this jet goes for something like $10,000 per flight hour, so from d.c. to california and back we're talking over $100,000 for a single flight. >> this is published in propublica on the destinations. they include a may, 2017 trip to montana, the location of glacier park international airport. then from montana to dallas two days later. thomas was scheduled to be in st. louis at the time for a speech to a local bar association. on one instance he flew on june 29, 2021 from the east coast to san jose, california and returned home later that day. in another the justice took a round-trip flight from d.c. to georgia. you could not immediately find evidence of thomas making public appearances in montana, georgia, or california on the days in question. why is that relevant? because it helps determine what he is doing or what the auspice is of this gift work? >> frankly we don't know what these particular trips are. what we reported is that crow brings thomas for vacations arou

for harlan crow said, the committee got this information from none other than harlan crow himself, in exchange for the committee agreeing to end its probe with respect to mr. crow, are you on board with that condition? >> well, let me make clear that this isn't over. there can be investigations in the future. this was about the specific investigation and the request that was made from this committee because what are we finding? we're finding that harlan crow paid for justice thomas's trips on yacht trips on private planes he just like a full time travel agency. it's unbelievable. his mom's house and yet crow is on boards of directors that have cases are filed, briefs on major cases that are pending before the court until all we're really trying to do right now. in addition to this investigation, which is going on on a different levels, is to get to the bottom of why can we have an ethics law codified into law for the supreme court every other federal judge in the country. and this is senator white house's bill every single court and federal judge in the country abides by these rules,

harlan crow, he is cooperating. they are getting this from harlan crow. >> right.verage in negotiations with lawyers and they came up with this deal where he is giving information about the past seven years. potentially not just travel. we will find out when the full investigation comes out this summer. >> we have to update our bar chart. it is a tough one to read. let's see, which one is thomas? right, there he is on the left. we might need to raise up that bar after we price these ones in. maybe this summer we will get more. can i get your response since i have you here about something justice alito said about your reporting. this is something that he said recently. surreptitiously recorded. take a listen. >> there are groups that are very well-funded by ideological groups that have spearheaded these attacks. that's what it is, you know. >> like who? >> propublica. propublica gets a lot of money and they have spent a fortune investigating clarence thomas for example. >> have you spent a fortune or are these ideological attacks? >> it was frankly disturbing to hea

jim crow. they were inspired by jim crow laws. that's correct. influence him at all? he you know, the ansr is he did know about the he did know about the nazis and the death lz4$b/camps and actually, when e retired, he became a active member of the board of the conference of christians in new york. he was also on the board of the ■ich is kind of interesting. so he that that there had an haliberty and had r the police and the whole sort of m.nazi regime. and, yes, i think it influenced own views on race andcan you all please join me in thinking, judge gergelfor a wonderful presentation presentation. ■so. i i suggest you go right out and order book on amazon. an easy read. it is fascinating. publisher would like that and that's just in return for the favor did earlier by the very very paid to the historical society appreciate that very much. please keep that mind as we enjoy the rest the evening. obviously. thank justice jackson and judge gergel for being tonight. as i say, this book is is a fascinating read. and i thought i knew a fair amersus boa
