i mean, protesting is, it's joyous. i mean, i'm not -- it's not joyous if there's such severe repression that you're being shot at, so that's not fun anymore. but if you're just, you know, why tear gas is part of the title, if you're just being, say, tear gassed, very annoying, to say the least. the first time you're tear gassed, you think you're going to die -- >> have you been tear gassed? >> oh, yeah. [laughter] i'm a pro at in this point. you think you're going to die because you can't breathe. it's very existential. not being able to breathe, it's why waterboarding is a form of torture. you think it's -- but, of course, you don't, right? unless you have a severe condition, it doesn't kill you. tear gas cans shot at you may, but the tear gas yourself, very few such incidents. so you get over it. and then you get really annoyed, and your eyes are hurting. and what you find is all these people who are with you and people will pick you up, they will wash your face, and you just went through all of this together. and tha

while i understand, you know, i understand some of the protests, i understand some of the groups and i understand that -- their message. i understand that, but these are not -- these are not really helping people in the long run, and i know peter's going to disagree with me, but we've got a lot of things going on. we've got health care. we've got people that need health care, alex. we've got to come together and pass that, you know?

well i mean that's and that it's necessary for the authorities the way it is already is can't say that this protest might turn violent and then go i mean that beds would be a major violation of freedom of speech so if there's going to be violence and the police are going to respond after the fact it's not the job of the police to prevent violence because they know they can't see what protests will become violent and if there's a will decipher protests is likely to be violent you know using bet would be an absolutely unconscionable violation of free speech yes so was i was i was suggesting that all we're going to see this situation repainted again. it depends on if the political parties really keep on allowing violence and we keep on a bracing balance if we're like yeah cool or the all right is cool look at how edgy they are if if people say things like that then yeah we will see a repeat but if we at the leadership level at the individual level can say that violence is wrong maybe the goals are good but that methodology is so bad the means do not justify any end at all that that kind of violence wh

motions of course are going to be extremely high now do you think we will see further protest perhaps for the violent. well i think we'll see many protests i mean the racists are routinely violent there's routine violence and in their interest training the police departments in there are using you know they no longer come and wait hoods and wait robes some of them are just dressed in blue uniforms but what's happening is because of the traffic ministrations overt racism these people feel that their time this term they're going to overcome the legacy of the sixty's they used to rule the south they want to rule the south again and they're saying we want to make america wait again we want to get rid of jews in other words this is the linguist in the rhetoric of the spanish is but that's how they used to talk when they were the dominant ruling class power in the south until the sixty's civil rights revolution overturned it then now with trump they think guess what our time is come we're going to reverse the verdict of the last fifty years and go back to the quote good old days what you're looking at the video yo

the violence in charlottesville and president trump's defense of far-right <i>protestersrmer presidents george and george w. bush put out a joint statement today. without mentioning mr. trump, they wrote, "america must always reject racial bigotry, anti-semitism, and hatred in all forms." and business leaders, who thought they had a friend in the white house, abandoned the president today. here's margaret brennan. >> reporter: by the time the president tweeted he was disbanding his business advisory councils, almost a dozen members, including the heads of g.e., campbell's soup, and 3m, had resigned. labor leader richard trumpka was among them and spoke to "cbs this morning." >> we believed that the symbolism of being racism and bigotry was just unacceptable. >> reporter: this morning, the remaining members of the president's strategy council had a phone call to discuss quitting. as cbs news' julianna go

that's what i try to live by every day, i tell my daughter. >> you decided to protest what's going onl us about what you're going to do and what specifically was the tipping point on saturday for you that led you to this decision? >> like i said, i won't stand until things are equal, until everybody has justice, until everybody has freedom, things america is built on. protest the national anthem begins the conversation about the truth of america. i am not protesting the flag, i'm trying to honor where we're supposed to be honoring, the freedom of america, equality of america, justice for all and liberty, those are things i am trying to remember we all fought for, the forefathers. you said fighting terrorists domestic and foreign, right now there's a lot of domestic terrorism and hate going on between the race, gender, all of the stuff going on. i want to bring up those issues and conversations, get people to try to act and fix the problem, different race, different colors, different sex, different gender, whatever it is. go out, try to find out how to help instead of being the problem

at times, the president said both sides-- the white supremacists and the <i>counter-protesters-- are to blame for the violence that left one person dead and 35 injured. we have never seen a presidential news conference quite like this one at trump tower this afternoon. white house correspondent margaret brennan was there. margaret. >> reporter: president trump unloaded his pruistration and defended his decision to wait two days before denouncing the hate groups behind that rally. he called it a "horrible, horrible day." >> i didn't wait long. i wanted to make sure-- unlike most politicians-- that what i said was quick statement. the statement i made on saturday, the first statement, was a fine statement. but you don't make statements that direct unless you know the fact. it takes a little while to get the facts. if you go back to my-- in fact, i brought it. i brought it. i brought it. >> reporter: mr. president-- >> as i said on-- remem

have passed between the time i was asked to come on the show i walked about a mile through places in new york where there are already protests they do not look very spontaneous to me they're printed flags printed placards you know i think people on both sides are spoiling for a fight here and we ought to think very carefully about what actually happened find out who may be guilty of what offenses best to get them and punish them accordingly before we leap to a conclusion as to what may have happened let's look at charles us look at how the rally started and where it started started at the statue of confederate general robert e. lee why do you think the confederacy and the symbols attached to it have become such a point for white nationalists. well that's a tough one i mean i think throughout the american south that i am not from the american south but throughout the american south. there was a lot wrong with the way in which the america confederacy was run there were there were there were some good things about the way the confederacy was won't run and the problem today is in two thousand and seventeen for all of our history

omarosa: i was a rambunctious student. protest, i was part of the agitations that brought about the change we wanted. i think those protests the students are meeting is important. it is the only way to affect change. i was not surprised. i know the students well. i'm a graduate and i taught there, served on the advisory programs.mba if students are unhappy with the leadership, you will hear from them in a form of protest. in this case, they used graffiti. other times they will march. walkouts. of howarde culture university. we only raise leaders. we do not raise followers. host: what is your message to the african-american community? omarosa: in what regard? the african-american community is not a monolith. we have to be careful of saying there is a single message for african-americans. tell me specifically. host: in terms of outreach. when you are meeting with students, college leaders, business leaders, people who want to find out what the president means to them, race issues, jobs. omarosa: my job is to communicate the vision o

don't think of emails from people who say i have had it, the protest turns me off. out then surprised comments i have seen about that. year, the ratings were down the first part of the season and there was a lot of's regulation it was about -- there was a lot of speculation it was about the protesters. let's see what happens this year, if there are protest at the games, will people be turning off? they may well. covers sportsren for the washington post. thank you. tweetset to some of your . we are getting a lot. here is a sample of what you are thinking. edward says even the burning of the flag is protected under free speech. colin is being blackballed. the nfl and tv networks don't show the national anthem any longer. they are in commercial because it is money over country. keep the nfl and politics separate. this administration is trying to stifle free speech. watch a political statement, i will watch the news. nfl does nothe mind if you are a convicted criminal, but don't you dare have a conscience. countrymy issue is this was established on the first right of pro

would say this say larger crowd -- was a larger crowd than any protest crowd i saw on the campaign trail and we attended many protests particularly out in the west. this has been the largest crowd. it's thinned out very rapidly as you can probably see now. we are down i would estimate to not much more than 100. it would be fair to say the vast majority of protesters were peaceful in nature and got out as soon as it became a little bit ugly with the smoke canisters fired by the police for whatever reason. again, iad can into the say wha sparked that move by the police but it was in the area we'd previous previously saw antifa. >> we have our chief correspondent john roberts. the president is out of the area. >> so many times on the campaign trail you'd have protesters outside of whatever facility the president was about to speak at and there were words exchanged between protesters and the rally but after the rally is when you saw trouble. we saw that in chicago at the rally the president canceled when people started filing out and protesters gave them trouble. we saw it notably in sa

there were people in that rally, i looked at before, if you look, there were people protesting very quietly. i am sure that in that group there were some bad ones. the following day it looked like they have some rough bad people. neo nazis, white nationalists, whatever you call them that a lot of people we re you call them that a lot of people were there to innocently protest, and legally protest, i don't know if you know, they had a permit. the other group did not have a permit. i only tell you this, that our two sites to story. i thought what place was a horrible moment for our country. horrible moment. but there are two sides to the story. does anyone have a final... you didn't get health care. what makes you think you didn't get an infrastructure failure. we came close with health care, john mccain voted against it at the last minute, you have to ask him why. we came close to it, we'll end up getting health care, infrastructure is one thing i think we will have bipartisan support on. i think democrats will go along with... mr president have you spoken to the family of the victim of the

i clashes break out between protesters and police in the us city of seattle during rival pro free speech an anti hate marches comes a day after violence at a white nationalist rally in virginia. children are being reunited with their relatives after aunties campaign to bring home russian speaking orphans of islamic state in iraq. and syrian forces in a special joint operation with russian troops have retaken three villages from islamic state. plus germany's foreign minister accuses angela merkel of. the american president by committing to increase the country's military spending. thanks for joining us this hour you're watching international. tensions between rival pro free speech and anti rallies have pulled over in the u.s. city of seattle after police moved in with purpose spray and stun grenades to disperse protesters. i i i. i. i. i. i have a conservative rally was organized by. a group called patriot prayer builders a supporter of free speech was confronted by counter protesters who were shouting insults before riot police. group of demonstrators attempted to force their way through

more protests or is this i think there's going to be more protests because there are more insistence that there's an answer beyond that and that's the problem and this is we're looking for answers out there and sort of in here joe thomas great to have you with us and good sir as you bet the trump tower in new york city was the site of numerous protests today of protesters took place throughout the country protesters were out and about and numerous occasions. chavez has the details on all of those events. we are here across the street at trump tower in new york where hundreds of protesters are gathering right behind me chanting hey hey ho ho trump has got to go this is just the latest protest to take place that at the slew of protests that happened over the weekend and nationwide let's take a look. you know i did the protesters filled the streets of new york over the weekend marching through midtown manhattan times square and you can square demanding for the president to a few white nationalist groups including the k.k.k. and neo nazis who clashed with the anti racism protesters in ch

and, i mean, regardless of what side or what's being protested, i think we do have enough laws on theooks when it comes to -- if someone acts up, they get arrested. but then to say arrest and then you're gonna be fined? i mean, how do you define that? >> but how do cities pay for all this extra police -- >> well, and let's also -- we're taking a pretty hard brick back to donald trump, and he deserves some of it. not all of it. because every once in a while, i'll see someone say, "there were protests against donald trump tonight," and what i see on television is a riot. antifa at the inauguration was burning cars, throwing gasoline bombs into stores, breaking windows. that's not a protest. that is a riot. and this antifa movement -- he's got a point here about what they have been doing. and in large part, they've been beating up on his supporters at his rallies. and when the story's told, it was a counter-protest. that's not a counter-protest. >> all right, let's hear from larry. >> i do think -- i think -- you're making the point i made earlier. i think hate or indecency or whatever y

there are a wide variety of counter protesters, as well. >> all i keep hearing is alt-right. a battle going on between two different groups but what has been going on in this country. >> brian, a response? >> originally the right extreme right wing protesters that were out there with tiki torches last night. but i agree with you, harry, what we saw in berkeley for example earlier this year an example of leftists who were out there with anti-fascists. and they become a stage partly thanks to the television cameras. you get these protesters and counter protestors resorting to physical action. >> all right. brian, harry, selena, thank you so much for joining us. plus stay with us. our coverage of the ugly situation in charlottesville, virginia continues after a quick break. >>> thank you so much for joining me. i'm boris sanchez. we start with this breaking news out of charlottesville, virginia. where clashes have erupted between white supremacists and protesters over the proposed removal of a confederate statue. we've seen several injured. the outbursts have been violent and vu

they could then protest but not necessarily integrate. >> that's right. when iin protest not to this degree but a lesser scale degree our strategy was to find the leaders. finding the leaders are important in this case are probably no leaders, a lot of chaos. your second option is to break up the protest and put them into small groups. separate two opposing forces. when they are separated, then you'll break up those crowds of the same size and put a pocket here, a pocket here and there to make sure you have enough police officers to keep an eye on everyone. what's concerning to me as i watch this is that militias coming with weapons. that's very troubling. when you are protesting against an issue, you get a protest peacefully. you can come with weapons. let's hope that no individual decides to use a weapon. that's a game changer for everyone. >> elizabeth: that was my last point and you answered it. the commonwealth of virginia is open carry. some of the men and women were showing up in fatigues, and they had not only homemade weapons but reports of weapons on s

and very legally protest. i don't know if you know, they had a permit. they other group didn't have a permit. >> they had a permit. what message does that send to these white nationalists groups and people around the world? here's one answer. this is brand new tonight. former kkk leader david duke welcoming the president crediting his honesty and courage to tell the truth about charlottesville and condemn the leftist terrorists. president trump said it first. he didn't know david duke was at that rally, but he knows now. the president claimed tonight that not everyone was a white nationalist at that white nationalist rally. >> i've don demonstrated neo-nazis. i've condemned many different gro groups in n groups. not all were neo-nazis. those people were there because they wanted to protest the taking down of a statue, robert e. lee. >> some facts for you on this. the justice department, under the trump administration, right now, is investigating charlottesville as a potential hate crime and potential terrorist a

, you know, while i think that a lot of the protesting groups have a great an valid nd and they are totally justified, but a lot of it loses its mission. look at ferguson how that went chaotic. it went beyond the message. look at baltimore, you know, some of these riots, they lose their message or it gets watered down when they have so much violence. i mean, that's one of the things, i think, that is turning a lot of people off for some of these riots and protests, because they turn into, you know, people are damaging property, they are hurting other people, they are killing people. >> i think actually, noelle, there's a legacy of ferguson, of baltimore that carries on today based on the issues of social justice that were raised then. the idea of the alt-right, nationalists, white nationalists, the ku klux klan being on the streets of american cities in 2017. the president has come under fire for the statements he's made, basically not acknowledging this. the idea that hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides, those are the words he used, he has an inability to call

now i must say during the day, the tension was between trump supporters and those protesters. t you didn't think that it was going to turn violent. you know, they were exchanging words. we heard there were some minor scuffles, but nothing too major. i do believe it was after that rally when people started coming out, probably a little fire the up, maybe from the president's speech that they came out, and words were exchanged between protesters and things became violent e >> it kind of turned, but it does appear as if calm has returned to the streets of phoenix where the president is spending the night. donya, thank you. >>> we're going to turn to the relationship with mitch mcconnell. it is reportedly on extremely shaky ground. according to the "new york times," the two haven't spoken to each other in weeks and it says mcconnell has privately shoenl uncertainty that the president will be able to save his presidency. they refer to a phone call that turned into a profane shouting president of bungling the obamacare repeal debate. >>> and there's no official word about how many mo

protest was looking up. police are looking tough and smart. thank you. in another one, i want to applaud the many protesters in boston who are speak out against mist bigotry and hate. steve my nugs is responding to his classmates who said he didn't distance him self from trump. >> while i fine it hard to believe i should have to defend myself on this, or the president, there is no that the president in no way, shape or form believes that the neo-nazi and other hate groups who endorse. -- which cites its values and commitments to diversity in its decision to abandon p club. >> president trump commented on the debarture of steve bannon as his chief strategyist. kelly o'donnell as the latest. >> reporter: a friend now unpredictable and on the outside. the president tweeted his first comments on friday's dismissal of steve bannon. steve bannon will be a tough and smart new voice at "breitbart" news, maybe even better than ever before. bannon a hard nosed nationalist moved on by moving back to the conservative media outlet "breitbart." where he made his intentions clear tellin

much every white supremacist demonstrator that i saw had some sort of weapon, either a helmet, a shield, a firearm, a baton. as for the counter-protesterswould say most of them were unarmed. many of them were members of the clergy or they were students. now, there were certainly some people w were there as counter-demonstrators who were there to cause trouble, but overwhelmingly, the counter- protesters were unarmed. they were also, the counter- protesters, the only ones i saw administering medical aid to people who had chemical agents in their eyes and in their mouths. >> mason: and did you get any sense of where most of the tension was really coming from on the scene? >> reporter: you have to remember that emancipation park where the statue of robert e. lee is, is raised above the street. it's several feet, several steps above the road. so the white supremacists had the park, and we're seeing a lot of objects coming down from the park into the streets where most of the counter-demonstrators were. and it's clear, for every one counter-demonstrator flag you could see, there were 10 to 15 confederate or white supremacist flags. >> mason:
