we are not going to watch no movie about the kkk. the democratic party he loves created the kkk to manipulate and dominate. he needs to zip it. >> we look at little spike lee as one of the gatekeeper of the democrat plantation. he don't want to see black people couple. he wants to see black people stay snuck the pain of their an investors and slavery. jesse: it looks like diamond and silk won't be seeing the spike lee movie. it's a year since the mueller investigation has gotten under way. there was a mole in the campaign. >> we now have that mole. >> yes. here he is. >> so you are the mole? mole. most of excellent agent you have ever seen. jesse: obama had a mole in the trump campaign. >> i think it's sick and sad. it's time for mule tore end this investigation. this was manufactured by the left. mueller, he should have been investigating the dnc. hillary clinton and her campaign. her campaign who allegedly took $170,000 from the russians to ease the russian sanctions under the obama administration, that's what should have been inve

it's the true story of a black police officer who infiltrated the kkk back in the '70s.cnn political commentators. they all are here. here's part of what spike lee said while answering questions about his new movie at the film festival. >> we have a guy in the white house. i'm not going to say his full [ bleep ] name. a defining moment. it was not just for americans but for the world. and that [ bleep ] was given a chance to say we are about love and not hate. and that [ bleep ] did not denounce the [ bleep ] klan, the alt-right, and those nazi [ bleep ]. we look to our leaders to give us direction, to make moral decisions. and i'd like to say this is not just something that pertains to the united states of america. this bull [ bleep ] is going all over the world. this right wing bull [ bleep ] is not just america. it's all over the world. and we have to wake up. >> good evening, by the way. what do you think, angela? >> first kudos to spike lee for just being able to tell the raw unadulltrated truth on camera, off camera. i'm grateful for his brutal honestly. that is th

a neighbor of ours coming out every friday night in his kkk outfit, scaring the children. and i can remember the fact that we were not allowed to vote in washington, d.c. we were not allowed to control our government in washington, d.c. but i also remember the fact that with joe mccarthy, it took a long time before the congress and the president eisenhower, to denounce him and go after him and i see the same thing happening now with this congress who just sits in the corner and just allows all these things to happen, especially with these, i want to call them idiots, nunez and jordan and meadows, allowing them to, you know, lasso the d.o.j. and use them as a whipping post, which is unfortunate. >> jon meacham. >> the mccarthy example is right on. it took four years for the mccarthy phenomenon to burn out. it started on lincoln's birthday in wheeling, west virginia, 1915. he was not -- the hero of that story to some extent is margaret j. smith. who in 1950, gave a speech called the decloration. laying out really the entire case against mccarthy, as it ultimately would becom

so big that you probably didn't even hear that kanye west said he wants to design new robes for the kkku didn't hear that, did you? now, that didn't actually happen but you weren't sure about it. yeah, you weren't sure. the big question is, why would giuliani and trump change their story? there's no logical explanation. >> the only logical explanation would have to be that he's getting out if front of some bald facts. i personally think that the raid on michael cohen's home office and hotel room really scared the white house. giuliani and trump likely know that there will be some bad facts getting out there. they may want to get ahead of it. >> trevor: wow, imagine a p.r. crisis so bad that your best move so to admit you paid hush money to a porn star. ( laughter ) so just so we're all on the same page, everyone pretended trump had nothing to do with this payment, but now that the f.b.i. raided michael cohen's office they're afraid the truth is about to come out so they want to get ahead of it first. when i was a kid, i would run into the kitchen and say, mom, mom! i ate all the cookies

by the way in his new film on the kkk, director spike lee has david duke say -- >> america first. >> first. >> laura: that's just to make sure you know the film is really about trump. that's very subtle even though it's set in the 1970s. we will look at the new film and a shocking and obscene tirade against trump. >> laura: filmmaker spike lee is using the kkk to bash president trump. in his new flick that just premiered at the cannes film festival in france. the audience repeatedly broke into huge applause and gave black klansmen a standing ovation. the film is about a black american who infiltrates the clan back in the 1970s but lee said it was his job to connect the story to the present day. so he blasted the president at a press conference for his response to last year's charlottesville protest. >> [bleep] was given the chance to say we are about love and not hate and that [bleep] did not denounce the [bleep] clan, the alt-right and those nazi [bleep]. >> laura: that might not be the most controversial thing the filmmaker said, watch. >> united states of america was built upon th

of a black colorado springs police detective who in phonecalls infiltrates the local chapter of the kkkserves as his avatar or double and meets klan members in person. the film is based on a real police detective called ron stallworth. there was a lot at stake, and what he had to even do to get to that position, and i don't want to mimic, i didn't want to emulate, i just wanted to inhabit his spirit. become his friend, let's get invited back. by infiltrating the ku klux klan, spike lee's protagonists bring an inside view of a hate group. some of its figures are cartoonishly drawn but that does not undercut their virulent racism. blackkklansman is a very political film designed to alert audiences to the presence of white racism in trump's america. america first. all: america first! our job as filmmakers, as storytellers, was to connect this period piece to present day. what is happening now did notjust pop up out of thin air. blackkklansman is a great return to form for spike lee — it was praised as his best film in years and one with significant commercial potential. for the first time

he did not denounce the kkk. he said, they are the good people on both sides.to make the change? my fellow arsenal supporter, i will go to my grave believing that when it was done well, by masters, whatever craft it is, art can impact on the world for good. i believe that. spike lee. thank you very much indeed. thank you very much. take care. spike lee speaking to our arts editor, will gompertz. the american author, tom wolfe, whose novel, the bonfire of the vanities, was one of the defining works of the 1980s, has died at the age of 88. the novel is an attempt to portray new york high and low today. i figured that one of the likely areas where the high and low can gather involuntarily, albeit is in the courts. in the 1960s and 70s, tom wolfe was a pioneer of newjournalism, using a subjective standpoint and rejecting the more traditional detached style. his other works of fiction included the right stuff and the electric kool—aid acid test. the editor of the new york times book review described wolfe's death as the "passing of an era." more on this saturday's r

restored you created not only a community and you talked to the leader of the clayton wong -- of the kkk and that when i would come to see you i couldn't go from a card to the parking lot without being stopped by four officers.. also to be committed and i used to think it must be so hard to maintain all these relationships that i felt it is just who you are. so now you are out how to explain the connection with people who are trying to kill you? nothing taught me that love. >> the mother was tossed that she was fair. when i went to death row, something inside of me changed. you mean it be who you want to be but be the person who makes people laugh or feel comfortabl comfortable. love has no boundaries. and then time will tell. and by saying that i would talk to the guards they still had problems as well even thoughghms they went home. they need somebody to talky to. it was a do have a moment? i say depends what you brought and they say a slice of red velvet i say come on in.

due to previous incidents when the kkk came to town and the police and the local population had issues, the police chose for a number of reasons to step back. their hands were tied in some ways. when a state of emergency was called and state troops were called in. i've talked with both the police and local sit zen ri acitizenry a great deal of mistrust on both sides. any outside help right now coming in is viewed as unwelcome, not helpful and very bitterly received. so, i'm here to tell you that the hate crimes not only affect individuals in pain but they can draw tremendous impacts for the community's health, as well. i spoke with the pastor from ferguson, missouri, just a couple of weeks ago and he said that in ferguson four years later they're still having a great deal of pain. so it's not that hate crimes only affect individuals. they have tremendous impacts on communities and decision making policies and in just so many ways. it is an ever-spreading affect. >> thank you. commissioner yaki, i think you had a question. >> yes. going back to a statement made by i think the official f

what about the bloods and crips and kkk and ira, and you call them all animals?st ms 13. >> kimberly: they are not coming over the border. the point is letting repeat offenders that prey on society. and between that and over in irland the ira, that's different. >> geraldo: i believe the subtext, it is us against them. them being the poor latinos who come to the country and vote democratic when they get legalized and it is intentional and ruthlessly pragmatic and it is unfortunate and will further divide the nation. but it is leading to a surge and decrease in the possibility of a blue wall. >> jerry: you terrify me with the ira running all over the south bronx. i don't think the iran is to the level of ms 13. >> geraldo: you want to bet? >> jesse: we are talking about america. >> geraldo: did they call the iran animals? you think they were different ethnic. >> jesse: are we really arguing about the ira? >> geraldo: i am arguing about the backhanded use. >> jesse: i would call the crip and bloods animals, too. and do it right now. >> geraldo: you will? >> kimberly

comic embraced bold and controversial story lines, including one in which black panther battled the kkk. >> the beauty, the pomp and circumstance intrigued me. >> in the early 1990s, wesley snipes tried bringing "black panther" to the screen. >> that was so much tense at that time period. >> around the time he hoped to make the movie, that tension exploded into riots after four lapd officers were acquitted in the beating of rodney king. >> i thought it would be a good thing to take a project like "black panther," which would be the antithesis of how africa was depicted, how the black community was depicted and african-americans in this country were perceived. >> after some initial interest, the studios passed on the project. >> when it didn't happen, i was kind of like, okay, i kind of accepted it. it's the name of the game. >> instead, snipes moved on playing a half immortal vampire slayer. >> well, if i can't be a king, i will be a black vampire. seems like it makes sense to me. perfect parallel. >> in the meantime, 12-year-old ryan coogler was in oakland where he dreamed about playin

remember from that campaign too washeavid duke talked about his support, when he was the high-profile kkkthis country, talked about his support for donald trump. it was like pulling teeth from mr. trump, asking him to disavow him. he wouldn't do it before -- >> there was an interview before wen he was talking about david duke. >> he had a long history of knowing who david duke was, reacting to david duke. he throw this out when steve bannon was there, and then after yard, h afterward, the need to appeal to a white base in this country, white base people in this country that believe in birth richl, didn't believe barack obama was a true president. that was his play. he and roseanne was two peas in a pod. >> scott when you listen to what they are saying talking about the red land strategy or what was -- >> heartland strategy. >> do they not think that roseanne's history of racism would turn people off, is that what they -- >> i think all of these points have been raised is excellent. regarding the heartland strategy i'm sitting here, in louisville. i would like to say a word about abc and t

about charlottesville until he said there were very fine people on both sides and he didn't condemn the kkk, and the waffle house incident. >> why was this all about donald trump today? this was about roseanne bar. >> his former producer from the apprentice called this in saying look at this, look at this she's a donald trump supporter, the show is very political. the first show was very political. she and her sister can't even get along because her sister supported hillary. whatever. moving on. so here's the bottom line -- okay, whatever you think that is. but here's the thing, if the president doesn't say anything this evening, his silence will be deafening. the question is if he says something will it be appropriate or will it stir up the base? here's another thing, this president has to be mindful and this white house. sarah huckabee sanders was absolutely correct in what she did in not saying anything because this whi house i currently working on a heart piece jared kushner has been pushing, that's prison reform minus sentencing reform and also talking about an urban agenda. the black

and with the kkk but the monument of this man was not there to know our history. it was put there in 1901 when segregation was clamp down on the black community. telling you we are in charge. and they tried to take it down. so the local autonomy you cannot take it down. also they tried to raise the minimum wage the republican legislature said you can't it has to be state law so it is surrounded by a seep or but in memphis there is a different feeling with a lot of interracial fellowship and it is a big deal or with sexual relations and so far -- so forthwith the city finally did, they just sold the park to a guy and he took it down. so it is no longer the government just a private party. there is a lot of innovation going on a good friend of mine and in that community where the factory was. frazier. thank you. and had become almost all black and loss those good paying jobs and when the economic crisis hit they lost their homes all over the place and wells fargo gave out a lot of loans. and it all turned out very badly. i and impressed when i go back memphis that i

. >> so ben ferguson, there's also the refusal the president to immediately denounce kkk grand wizard david duke. democrats draw a direct line between the president at the top setting the tone and people like roseanne writing what she wrote, is that fair? >> i think roseanne has been someone that is for a long time pushed limits and i don't think that you can blame that on donald trump. i think she's a grown adult. she should be held accountable for her own words. clearly what she said, she apologized for, took it down and said it was wrong. i don't think you can blame donald trump for any of roseanne's antics. look back over the last 30 or 20 years of her career. she's always pushed the limit. she pushed the limits the first time the show was on the air. she pushed the limits the second time it was on the air. what she wrote was wrong and inexcusable but this has been consistent with roseanne's. they knew they were taking a risk with her. that has nothing to do with donald trump so to somehow claim that donald trump is responsible or somehow influenced roseanne and her antics which h

they were the ones that gave them thehe kkk. they arene the ones that gave yu slavery.the ones that gave you the jim crow laws. i'm glad there's a dialogue. if kanye is part of that conduit. i'm glad to hear that as well. i'm glad this dialogue is finally happening. just outside of individuals like myself that have been doing this for a while. >> laura: you have been doing it for decades. i wantin to talk about illegal immigration. you were hot on the issue. obama in 2006 in the add dasy of hope i heighted the immigration as hurting the african-american community and depressing wages. well, we won't bother people with the passage. we don't have time. but he makes the point that the huge influx of cheap labour hurt the poorest communities. now black america is supposed to be aye, open borders. it is madness. madness. >> well, it is madness. this is what's so aggravating to me. it is not that blacks m my opinion, adhering to it. it is those stations that are constantly pushing and feeding that narrative to blacks. here's theve reality. obama said it. it was cool to say it

protesters and this deals with the richard spencers and that crowd of neo—nazis and neo—confederates and kkkok? and the charlottesville police should have never... they come in there looking for a fight. they never should have given them a permit. and that's because local authorities let these guys go. these guys are thugs and looking for trouble but however, the antifa guys are just as bad. they're there, they come fully loaded. they're looking for a fight. that was a dumb thing to say wasn't it? i mean in the heat of it, it was a dumb thing to say. i don't agree with that at all. i think that he was saying, "we look at context," and i think he had the most brilliant thing. his point was, where does it end? you're going to take down mount vernon? are you going to take down the washington monument? you know, washington was a slaveholder. you left the white house shortly after that episode. was it because you fell out with...? no it's one, it's one year, it's one year. i told maggie haberman very early on, in fact, i went tojohn kelly at the first of august. i said, "i'm out of here on the 14

share their pain, their bias, a young white woman stood up and said, my family's was members of the kkk heard my whole life and i didn't know what was wrong. we heard african-americans talk about the fact that they feel they are not being valued in the system the playing field is not equal. we went around the country and have these meetings in almost every major city among starbucks. people started asking us, what is starbucks going to do? we got together and said, one of her goal and objective is to elevate the national conversation around race. we know how difficult it is. let's have the courage, we probably didn't have the moral authority let's have the courage to elevate the conversation. we spent two and a half hours as a board not talking about sales, revenue or markets, we talked about how risky this would be, but at the same time, unnecessary. starbucks was stores in every community in america the impact we have could be incredible. so we leaned into it and asked her people to write together to try to elevate the national conversation. what happen, we're totally unprepared for.

>> so we like to think of the racist as the loud racist, the roseanne barr, the donald trump, kkk person. racial habits are different. we learn race by navigating one's environment. people learn race by driving around their city. because the city has been zoned in such a way where black people live on one side, white people live on the other, brown people live in another. then as you drive around, you see different resource allocation. you see as you cross the tracks in the south, you're from the south, you know what happens. the neighborhood suddenly looks different. we're accustomed into believing some people are valued in certain ways as opposed to another just by moving around space. think about schools. think about the choices people are making in terms of their neighborhoods. racial habits animal every aspect of our lives. it's not just simply the loud racist. it's everyday ordinary people. every last one of us are habituated into understanding race in a particular sort of way in this country. so it can't just simply be a kumbaya moment. it can't be a moment of training where we cl

they were ones that gave us the kkk. they were the ones that also gave you slavery.y were the ones that gave you the jim crow law. i'm glad that there is a dialogue and if kanye is part of that conduit, i'm glad to hear that as well. i'm just glad that this dialogue is finally happening just outside of individuals and myself that have been doing this for a while. >> laura: you've been doing it for a decade. i want to talk about illegal immigration. obama back in 2006 in his book the audacity of hope highlighted illegal immigration as hurting the african-american community, depressing wages and so forth. we won't bother people with the passage, we don't have time. he basically makes the point that the huge influx of cheap labor hurt the poorest communities. but now black america is supposed to be open borders, this is madness, madness. >> it is madness. this is what is so aggravating to me. it's not that blacks are, in my opinion, just adhering to it, it's those stations that are constantly pushing and feeding that narrative to blacks. here's the reality, obama said i

byrd, former senator from west virginia who was a democrat but earlier in his life had been in the kkk's a complicated state. joe manchin has won it by being west virginian. by appealing to the sort of sensibility of we havians across party lines. he's going to have trouble this time i think regardless of who is nominated. we saw him earlier in the show trotting out with gina haspel who democrats hate and basically blessing her. >> jonathan allen, national political reporter for nbc news, thank you so much. noted. it is no secret of course that the republican congress has a mixed record of legislative accomplishment in this trump era. they did pass major tax cuts, mostly benefiting businesses, but they faltered on health care, couldn't strike a daca compromise, and have not even tried to tackle problems that require big bipartisan compromises like immigration reform and gun safety. there's been, however, one area where republicans have been undeniably effective and that is confirming judges. this week six more federal judicial nominees will likely be confirmed. the president of course

. >> like a kkk person could commit a crime against a jewish person. >> they are with increasing frequencyacross the country. >> and with the jewish community from the department of justice i know this is hard because i am a lawyer left back but it doesn't matter for the purpose as long as the victim is specifically targeted that is what i hate crime is. >> that is what i want to clear up. >> i'm not sure how much of this is a question but i was intrigued that the best course of action would involve not a lot of financial resources enforcing them to come together and to talk to one another and then in combating hate crimes. so i wonder with the resegregation of our schools where children will come together each day and to be exposed to all different people and you have to deal with one another. i am not sure there is a question but. >> can i make a comment? [laughter] so working with fourth-graders and fifth-graders for a number of years and that is why is happening and i can expose them to all kinds of things but then i'm not really making the change so needs to be broader than just schoo

i think of it as the kkk. is toslims, like the kkk christianity on the other side. malcolm x.urdered by black muslims shortly after he returned from a cup. -- from mecca. he was suspended from his recruiting activities because mohammed was getting jealous of the fact he was becoming more popular. he found the muslim religion was not what you have been taught through the black muslim religion. on have to do is go on their website. they have one page that makes it clear. theof the first thing in precepts is they are against interracial marriage. they believe whites are evil. they want separate states. iny have -- black muslims -- detroit, probably 100 times more -- black muslims -- by definition, racist in detroit -- that group represented in charlottesville from a white supremacists standpoint. host: david, how do you know that? caller: the website. i read the autobiography of malcolm x. host: mr. haaretz, go ahead -- mr. horwitz, go ahead. guest: when he held the million man march, it hundred thousand blacks -- 800,000 blacks followed him. this is much more than 500 idiots in

prosecutor secured conviction for a maryland man who identified himself as the imperial wizard for the kkk and was protesting at the rally security is not secure a conviction but those questions that we take up today it is sufficient to respond to hate criminal activity. in the wake of the violence the commissioning and please stated white supremacy dishonor the commitments we have forged over time and violence must be met quickly with condemnation and a unified response. some are already living that response that news reports of acts of violence to draw hope and inspiration from those communities with stations of hate to display that response. last year after several jewish cemeteries were vandalized, several muslim activists started a fundraising effort to make sure it could be rebuilt and repaired. that and other communities rebuilding together against hate i was astounded to learn that the majority of hate and bias majority arcing and bias majority arcing was 17% under the age of 19. and with those hate incident in school to ensure we trade nation to productive civic engagement. and i

kkk, orther neo-nazi, some kind of isolation.hey say, they got to have parents in the house, they got to find -- they got to have a father. they keep finding excuses. it does not work with a black male but it does when a white boy does it. kids are being affected by the false premise called white supremacy. it is affecting children. host: in another headline, "the hill" is reporting there are an increasing number of gop revolts against speaker paul ryan as his retirement years. speaker paul ryan appears to be asing his grip on power over restive republican congress. members of the far right team to with moderate republicans to sink the farm bill, a manager legislative priority and legacy for the lame-duck beaker. a band of 20 centrist republicans are revolting against ryan using a rare procedural tactic to force a series of immigration votes. reinstated father patrick conroy as the house chaplain last month after catholic republicans and democrats publicly ripped his decision to force the chaplain to step down. the speaker hoped

their pain, their bias, a young woman, a white woman stood up and said my family were members of the kkkhis is language i've heard my whole life. i didn't know it was wrong. we heard african-americans talk about the fact they feel all the time that they are not being valued, and the system, the playing field is not equal. not level. so we went around the country and we had these meetings. almost in every major city among starbucks. our people started asking us, we've had all these meetings, what is starbucks going to do? so we got together and we said, what if our goal and our objective is to elevate the national conversation, the national discourse, around race? we know this is a third rail. we know how difficult it is. we probably don't have the moral authority but let's have the moral courage to elevate the conversation. we spent two and a half hours as a board, not talking about sales or markets, with melanie, african-american, sender bradley, secretary gates and other people in that board room talking about how risky this would be but at the same time, how if he is. and a starbucks

if they want a mark against something, how about march against the democratic party who created the kkk. [cheering and applause] i thank god because it was the nra that helped my ancestors protect and defend themselves so don't blame the nra for this. you blame the person that takes the guns and use the guns. that is who you blame, not the nra. [cheering and applause] i'm sorry, you off, i was trying to -- you all know i can get [inaudible]. i know you all hear what is happening in my country with people want to be independent thinkers and open up their minds because they know we can think for ourselves. [applause] you see kanye west saying we can think for ourselves. >> hm-mm. >> and diamond and silk we used to say we don't need you fools giving us a narrative but we can see ourselves. [cheering and applause] and i keep hearing people talk about a revolution but the revolution started back in 2015 when diamond and silk told everyone you have to come up with a democratic plantation. >> that's right. [cheering and applause] >> ladies, if you don't believe me we have a battle scars to pro

due to previous incidents, when the kkk came to count and the police and the local population issues, the police chose for a number of reasons to step back. their hands were tied in some ways when a a state of emergeny was called and state troops were called in. i've talked with both the police and local citizenry, and is a great deal of mistrust on both sides, a great deal of pain on both sides. any outside help the comes in right now is viewed as unwelcome, not helpful, and very bitterly received. so i'm here to tell you that the hate crimes not only affect individuals, but they can draw tremendous impacts for the communities health as well. i spoke with a pastor from ferguson, missouri, just a couple of weeks ago and he said that in ferguson, four years later they're still having a great deal of pain. it's not that hate crimes only affect individuals. they have tremendous impact on communities and decision-making policies, and just so many ways. it's an ever spreading effect. >> thank you. i think you had a question. >> yes. going back to a statement made by i think the official fr

information and that is where he got the inspiration for the phrase, but fred trump was there at a kkk rally where america first was invoked. it is supremely ironic that in a foreign-policy sense, the first person to use the phrase america first was the founder of liberal internationalism himself, woodrow wilson. he used it in a speech in 1915 to the daughters of the american waslution at a time when he trying to keep the united states out of the war. he used that phrase several 15-1916 -- 1915, the, to give support to policy of neutrality in the great war. what was going on was terrible, but what he had to do was keep in mind the american national interest. anduddenly reversed himself in 1916, the democratic party certainly mentioned this phrase. he ran on a phrase "he kept us out of the war," because americans did not want to join the war. by april 1917, he was asking congress for a declaration of war. he did a very quick about-face that has an interesting story -- i do not have time to get into those fourween months, he did bring the united states into world war i. when he did, he b

a failure to drop this drink since -- to draw distinctions, so you can see the difference between a kkkrand wizard and a conservative like then shapiro. you see everybody to your right as fascist, sexist, totalitarian and intolerable. and i think that is a real thing that happens because broad andates in --ghtly -- often under undergraduates often think in broad categories. but the argument against political correctness are seeking group address, and the idea that that way lies dehumanization. this was part of your opening remarks. you are a category creep, stephen. stephen: i don't understand what we are talking about politics. but that we were talking about political correctness. let's be empirical about this here it how well is it working for you in america at the moment? not well at all. trump and brexit in britain and all kind of nativists in europe are succeeding, is not because of the right, it is the catastrophic failure of the left. it is our problem. [applause] my point is not that i have turned to the right, or that i'm nice and fluffy and want everybody to be decent. i am sa
