the lynchings, the kkk segregation, the racism, the jim crow south, all of that happened decades after lee died. and lee had absolutely nothing to do with any of that. as someone who has studied lee exhaustively, i can say with absolute certainty that lee would have rejected white's and he can't be blamed. things that happened so many years after he died. his final years at washington college were arguably his finest, although he had lost everything and suffered immeasurably. he was not embittered. he carried on with dignity and grace and he often quoted the stoic roman emperor, marcus aurelius, as meditation misfortune, nobly borne, is good fortune. he bore his misfortune with remarkable nobility. and his good fortune is that today we continue to celebrate his enduring legacy. so let me wrap up by saying lee has been unfairly canceled in recent years, but i'm confident that the truth will ultimate prevail and that his legacy continue to endure. and my hope is that his example, honor and character can and will be resurrected, inspire future generations. the same. it's inspired me. so t

agents are doing and maligned them reminiscent of how kamala harris compared them to kk members -- kkk members. they are trying to arrest the most dangerous criminal and puts his own citizen at greater risk. they always put public safety behind his political agenda and he is willing to do this to increase his status at the expense of the citizens he is sworn to protect. it is a cynical move and abominable he would say something like this but on the second part of this, are they going to work through this? it has always been illegal to hire illegal aliens so i don't know what the specifics are, so if businesses are going to hire illegal aliens, they should be on notice they are not allowed to and a lot of times they are somewhat exploited in terms of wages and things like that. people should be on notice. if you are here illegally, you are going to be deported. people that are law-abiding are most likely not going to be deported immediately and people who are here legally are going to be deported at all so they don't have any reason to be fearful. >> they are on notice to the point ther

but the other side of white supremacy, the other side of what the kkk did was ensure that black people'saces were not in certain spaces, was to ensure that they were cut off from achievement, was to ensure that there were various mechanisms and policies put in place that would stop the growth and economic development of the black community, and in this case, what we see from many of these nominees, rfk jr. i would put a huge spotlight on is someone who is utilizing the very same science and reasoning that was utilized in the civil war that acknowledged wrongfully that black people had smaller brains, that black people could endure more pain, that black people essentially were subhuman. that is what he used during that confirmation hearing. and that's a real problem. >> okay. amicia brennan, buck, thank you both so much. we've got to turn to some breaking news. so we're going to have to leave it there. just in the last hour, democrats have elected a new leader for the party. nbc's ben kamisar is at national harbor, maryland, where the democrats are meeting. all right, ben, who's the new l

despite the fact that starmer's cabinet called trump things like a neo—nazi, sympathising, woman hating, kkkligned fascist and goodness knows what else, trump is willing to overlook all of that and by the sounds of it, treat us better than most nations. what does starmer do? goes to the eu with his begging bowl out, negotiating from a position of unbelievable weakness because they all know he's said stuff like this. >> already voted i think three times as a party for a second referendum with a three line whip behind it. and so i can tell you today, an incoming labour government will legislate for a referendum immediately on taking power and hold that referendum within six months. labour must support all options remaining on the table, including campaigning for a pubuc including campaigning for a public vote. that was our commitment. we would call for a general election if the deal didn't get through, but that if that didn't happen, the option of a public vote ought to be available. >> yeah. so they've got him over a barrel, haven't they? the eu leaders even invited starmer to a leader's summ
