she's donald trump jr.'s girlfriend.nd today she claimed republicans are lighting things up. >> in president trump's america we light things up. we don't dim them down. we build things up. we don't burn them down. we kneel in prayer, and we stand for our flag. >> and for our panelists, i want to play one other part of this address. people are already buzzing about it. this is where she argues the opposition party is out to destroy your families and your lives through a generation-killing wave of brainwashing. >> don't let the democrats take you for granted, don't let them step on you, don't let them destroy your families, your lives, and your future. don't let them kill future generations because they told and you brainwash you and fed you lies that you weren't good enough. >> tim? >> well, she has a lot of passion. and i applaud her passion, i guess. look, i think here's the deal. what you saw tonight was two different kinds of speakers. her and her boyfriend, the president's son, were speaking to the red meat maga crow

so let us now go to a suit and pseudo on the same evening that donald trump jr spoke we heard a very striking appearance by a couple named mccloskey mccluskey's have been charged with a felony for pointing their weapons at black protesters who were going through their streets. are the republicans with a statement like that with statements like we just heard from donald trump jr are they indirectly if not directly exploiting racism well i think it's become sort of a party of grievance and you know there are of course in 2016 i think donald trump was very smart to see that there were parts of the u.s. electorate that were still suffering and people feeling left behind the question now is where does the lines cross as we've often talked about how dollar trump breaks norms and crosses certain lines where it becomes taking advantage of people with fear and also actually harming them because they're stoking division and what . is describing in a world according to biden is actually happening now under donald trump's watch so i hope getting back to your question also about the results of th

i'm donald trump jr. we're here tonight to talk about the great american story, to talk about this country we all love, this land of promise and opportunity of heroes and greatness. just a few short months ago, we were seeing the american dream become a reality for more of our citizens than ever before. the greatest prolonged economic expansion in american history, the lowest unemployment rate in nearly 50 years, the lowest unemployment rates ever for black americans, hispanic americans, women, and pretty much every other demographic group. and then courtesy of the chinese communist party, the virus struck. the president quickly took action and shut down travel from china. joe biden and his democrat allies called my father a racist and a zeno fobe for doing it. they put political correctness ahead of the safety and security of the american people. fortunately, as the virus began to spread, the president acted quickly and insured ventilators got to hospital that needed them most. he delivered p.p.e. to our

they wanted to relive a chapter of history that brings so much pride to them when martin luther king jr led the civil rights movement 57 years ago he ascended those very steps behind me and delivered those famous words i have a dream a dream of racial equality for black americans today it was his son who followed in his father's footsteps addressing the crowd with a message that while hopeful a bit of knowledge of the progress that has been made it was also a challenge because his father's dream according to his son has not been yet fulfilled we know that the march today was the idea during the funeral of george ford who of course is the black american who died under the knee of a wash. in minneapolis the on the arrests that followed that killing with protesting in many cities across the country really made the country stare this issue in its eyes but after that and even during this pandemic we've seen get more names added to the list of people black people who have been shot or killed by police officers and the latest one plate in wisconsin who was shot 7 times in the back by an office

jr stone is live in the newsroom. jr, some people just got their electricity tonight after being without it all weekend? >> yes. we're talking about people who didn't have it for 60 hours. more than 60 hours but tonight they did not have to issue statewide blackouts for two reasons. temperatures cooled and people conserved. >> it's just ridiculous that we're already stuck in our house. and now what are we supposed to do? >> reporter: monday fears of more rotating power outages grew across california and here in alameda where cynthia zurnic lives. she has an autistic son who uses a sleep apnea machine and says there is no excuse for enduring outages like thinking and it's hot and the air conditioning goes off and we're stuck here with five kids, not having anything to do. >> reporter: the state called off the rotating outages late monday, saying temperatures stayed cooler than they had been, and people conserved. the governor even taking blame for energy shortages during his monday press conferences. >> we failed to pr

donald trump jr. brought it up in his speech.t's not something he was doing as much last time around. yet mark just made the case about why in his view that comes up short. >> so each person who spoke tonight, the trump campaign has told me, is meant to appeal to a different voting bloc. so they were meant to appeal to suburban voters. this is largely the messaging that donald trump has been putting forward for weeks now, saying they're going to destroy suburbia, the democrats will destroy the suburban dream. it's not different, we just heard it from his supporters tonight. and they were trying to reach african-american voters. donald trump has to at least maintain the same level of support with african-american voters as he did in 2016 in places like pennsylvania and wisconsin, where democrats are expecting to have a larger turnout of that same voting bloc, in addition to suburban voters. which is why tonight it may have seemed like you were hearing different messaging, it's because they were for very different groups of people.

on the paperback reissue of his book "king of the cats: the life and times of adam clayton powell, jr.". first published in 1993, the biography chronicles the harlem congressman's political career. >> my name is deb morris, welcome to politics and prose and i welcome wil haygood although we see him several times a week. he's not a stranger here, he is a customer and friend of the store and author of the book we are celebrating tonight. one of the things i like about this book besides that it is a biography of one of the great men of the twentieth century is the title "king of the cats: the life and times of adam clayton powell, jr." because it so aptly describes adam clayton powell. he was smooth, he was cool, he was good-looking, he was smart, and he always was a complete package that spoke eloquently for african-americans and the poor in this country. one of the great things about this is not long ago we had a student come in who was looking for a biography of adam clayton powell and there wasn't one. all the books about him were out-of-print so it is a privilege to have "king of th

theodore roosevelt jr.ad a very laid back command persona and that wasn't up to snuff with somebody who was spitting polished as george paton was. and omar bradley thought he got a little too comfortable and perhaps too cozy and laid back with some of the soldiers and there wasn't that rigid discipline that makes a good soldier a good soldier. so he was removed from command in the first infantry division that he wasn't down and out and he landed a spot as the first assistant division commander in the fourth division in the months prior to the normandy invasion. and roosevelt pleaded with his commander general raymond tubby barton. that was his name. that was his nickname. and he was just unceasing, and, he wanted to go ashore with his men. and barton finally acquiesced, and barton realized at that moment this is probably going to be the end of this general. his health was failing. he was suffering from chest pains and he wasn't telling anybody about it. he had very bad arthritis. his mobility in some cases
