brent's social media postings reheat with photos of his children and family. they show images of love and service and patriotism. qualities of a man, husband, father who honors his family and country. in his last facebook post brent implored we all remember we have far more as americans that unite us than divide us. and he entered that post with the words, god bless america. integrity, the army says integrity is a quality developed by adhering to moral principles and the more choices you make based on integrity, the more this highly prized value will affect your relationships with family and friends. the days since the sad passing of major taylor have been filled with an outpouring of love and grief expressed by those who knew present, his integrity left and impression and affected his relationships. personal courage, september of fweven major taylor was commanding a convoy in iraq when he was hit by an insurgent i.e.d. his vehicle was struck by debris. for the wounds received in action he was awarded the purple heart and would he go on to deploy twice more. brent taylor stood as an example of personal courage,

again, he's old enough, he remembers the values of the post world war ii, highly patriotic america, whereeople love the flag and they love the idea that we were the greatest nation on earth and love the values of the declaration of independentents and constitution. so in a lot of ways he's carrying forward almost as a grandfather, the values of two generations ago and taking head on the left-wing radical values which the academic world, the news media is and hollywood have tried to impose in the country. mark: it seems to me, newt, he wasn't always this way, wasn't always coming towards a conservative conclusion. he backed some liberals and i think as he's been president that these things have crystalized for him. that sitting there where the buck stops there, seeing the policies, seeing the impact of the policies or potential impact of the left's policies, using his common sense and using his business background and so forth and he's an incredibly intelligence man and sitting there and saying no, that's not right. when you think these things through, he comes, and many people come to a c

and he's warned the post—war liberal democracy he champions is under threat by echoes of the past. translation: patriotismirst and we don't care for others, it's a treason of our values, a betrayal of all moral values. we must remember this. a poignant interlude by yo—yo ma, born in paris, playing at the tomb of the unknown soldier. this country at the centre of the world war was today the heart of world diplomacy. from president macron, memories of the brutality but also a call to protect the multilateral order that came from it. he's increasingly now, though, a minority against nationalist, authoritarian leaders. belgium, too, was consumed by war, and there today tributes to the battles scarred into europe's consciousness. a homage to those killed in the trenches and a nod to the troops from the colonies that backed up allied forces, dying in a war that wasn't theirs. in paris, damp skies and a reflective mood as the eternal flame was lit. the bloodshed may be a distant memory for this country but its president is fighting new battles today. a once war—torn continent is now a fractured one. our correspo

pamphleteers were patriots for liberty, for limited government, for representative government, for private property rights. they were pamphleteers against tyranny and pamphlets would be posted at pubs and other public place. pamphlets would be circulated and by mouth discussed at the dinner table and among community meetings and so forth. these were true patriots and they had a big cause, the cause of founding an independent united states. contrast that with the media today which is crucially important in this upcoming election. contrast it with the media of today. do the media ever talk about individual liberty? private property rights? natural law? unalienable rights? do they ever talk about that? no. what do the media talk about? typically one of two things, pushing the progressive left agenda or trashing the president of the united states. that's pretty much it. they are johnny and janie two notes. and it's a big problem in this country. so this election is about not only defeating many, many radicals that the democrats have nominated. some of them are outright bigots, but it's also about pushing back against the media. that has no comprehension whatsoever what freedom

patriotic thing like okay someone is trying to sell us something. you can sell a bag of tomatoes without having a veteran or a flag somewhere and then it was post-9/11ou watch a football game and there is a flag the size of a field and it has the flag so you can see there was a major shift taking this visual packaging you can see they have an american flag on their uniforms. so there was that, which was enough to talk about post-9/11 than the othe9/11but then the oi thought was important to talk about picking the next year obviously with what happened in ferguson and then in new york you see them do something that they had not done since mohammed ali which was to get involved and say something. i apologize for your generation. [laughter] there wasn't a lot of guys that don't involve the use to refer to them hiding behind the tinted glass. what they cover you see them wearing i can't breathe t-shirts and suddenly the st. louis rams and then you are looking at this and combining these images and then all of a sudden the arrival they told me that that was news. so this is the second part of my anxiety now that you have an idea how do you get this idea

post world war i. >> as president trump looked on, listen to what macron said. >> translator: patriotism is the exacte of nationalism. nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism, by saying our interests first. who cares about the others? we erase what a nation holds dearest, what gives it life, what makes it grace and what is essential, its moral values. >> dafbd sanger, security analyst, national security correspondent for "the new york times." david, for the french president to use those words yards from the u.s. president, to criticize nationalism days after the president called himself a nationalist, is there any way that the president could not take those words as directed at him? >> no, they were directed at him. if the president took it that way, he took it accurately. and it's why, you know, he always shows up at summits like this as if -- looking as if he's going to a high school reunion with classmates he didn't really like. right? so you saw this throughout the weekend. macron critique was two-fold. one, the use of the word nationalism and basically he made the argument that the bigger form o

patriot. as patrick henry once said, "give me liberty or give me xanax. i gotta go to the post office." ( laughter ) then th aon-voter in ohio: "my friend gave me 'the prince,' by machiavelli. i got into hellenism. i read cicero, livy. later on, i got into voltaire. i never felt certain enough to vote." ( laughter ) academic theory is fun, but it's no excuse for inaction. that's why i can't pay my bills with a check that just says, "money is a construct!" ( laughter ) now, this election has been very divisive. i think we all know that. but most of us believe that deep down, we all have the same hopes and dreams. and we are wrong. because a new survey says republicans and democrats don't just disagree about politics. they have different sexual fantasies. you can trust the survey, because they took their time. i mean, the voters were repeatedly polled. ( laughter ) apparently, republicans were more likely to fantasize about things like infidelity, orgies, and partner swapping, from 70s-style "key parties" to modern-day forms of swinging. that's right, republicans are the party of

[laughter] he is a character. so that the mccain funeral jay leno was in front of me were on the right and giuliani was on the left. but then my heart broke with the trips to the conference but. >> it is not up to us but i will never spin that many years in a prison camp and then to work in that kind of a manner. >> that was a gift we should all just focus on that. so this book is just so much more. and to talk about it at length other things that you have not yet said the sophisticated audience would like to hear and the iran efforts that a lot of people supported after the fact once it became implemented on the day the administration decided to pull out and most where i was said i supported it not then but i do now. . >> that's the point president trum

patriotism of 73-year-old army private stanley clyde stoltz. the rallying cry for stoltz began a week ago when the funeral home concerned that no one would show, postedotice in the omaha world herald. the public is invited to the cemetery to honor a vietnam veteran with no known nina may. some siblings were were eventually located but the notice had gone viral and the public responded. >> first it came out that no immediate family was going to be there, so i thought, i'll be there. he needs to be honored. >> stoltz was born in 1945 and grew up on a farm in iowa. >> at the expense of caring for himself. >> he served his country, but returned home to a nation that wasn't always grateful. president lincoln once made a promise. to care for him who shall have borne the battle. that promise was kept for this veteran, his sacrifice would not be forgotten. >>> that is the overnight news for this thursday. for some of you, the news continues. for others, check back later for the morning news and "cbs this morning." from the broadcast center in new york city, i'm jeff glor. ♪ ♪ >> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." >> welcome to the overnight news. i

patriot act. >> yes. >> why? >> the title? >> yes! >> okay, okay. >> because that has some quite risky connotation. >> yes. >> it was the post-9/11 george w. bush essentially surveillance net. >> yes, yes. well, for me, what i thought was really interesting about it is two reasons. i thought one it's an interesting throwback. if you know you know. obviously certain people know it. you brought that to netflix? but then what's really, really interesting was currently i think not only in america but in the world there is this claiming of what it means to be a patriotic citizen of your respective country and i thought it would be interesting for me who's an indian american muslim, all of those things all at once, and reclaiming that title. i thought it would be interesting. >> it is. and the fact you talk about the hyphens and you live between the hyphens. an indian-american-muslim. >> yeah. >> which one has precedence? >> all of them are important to me. that's sort of a thing i bring to each headline piece is my perspective given those things and so i sometimes a lot of the stories are complicated for me. >> two of the episodes have dropped

patriots. [applause] and as a team, laura, you and the president continue to take on big challenges in your post years through your work at the george w. bush institute. and tonight, we recognize the impact you have made through your enduring commitment to supporting america's veterans and caregivers. and at you, being married as -- if my mother were here looking at you, being married as long as you have, she would say no purgatory for you, dear. straight to heaven. straight to heaven. >> [laughter] [applause] vp biden: because you understand the sacrifice we ask of our men and women who wear the uniform in the united states, and the toll that it takes on both the servicemembers and their families. i have long said that we have many, many obligations as a country, but we only have in my view -- and i get criticized for saying it, but i will say it again -- we only have one sacred obligation, one truly sacred obligation. to properly equip those we sent to war and care for their families both when they are deployed and when they return, and it is not as easy as just picking up where you left off.

patriotism by saying our interest is first. who cares about the others? >> president macron creating quite a stir in a speech. they had lines all over the u.s., the postew york times," america first draws rebuke at ceremony as thet returns home here. back with the panel. >> that was a really disappointing thing to hear about hear about macron. first of all, patriotism always has an object and that's one own country. nationalism is identifying with your country and putting yours above others. if you are a good country with good values, there should be no separation between those two. but the timing he chose to do this, on the anniversary of the hundredth anniversary of the ending of world war i, when we did so much to tip the balance there in that war, another war we helped out with as well. for him to let gratitude for what our country has done not just in those wars by providing a security banquet blanket for hundreds of years -- be when the president got criticism for not attending the ceremony at the cemetery 50 miles from paris, the helicopter marine one according to the white house couldn't fly because of the weather. the drive was about 50 miles
