where is al sharpton? because the victim looks like was white does this not counts as injustice in the good reverend's eyes? the reeve the social justice warriors don't care to address ion black attacks in long beach 53-year-old said her attacker yelled racial slurs at her before punching her face. i thought i was going to die, too scared to share her name the attackers are still on the loose. again, this is wanton violence for no reason, broken families, a criminal justice system that's overloaded and too often treats criminals like victims and victims like criminals. so, does al sharpton and his pals believe that racism is the reason that teens under 13 in maryland are stealing cars? i looked and i looked and i found no sign of al sharpton speaking out last week after this story out of objection enhill, maryland where a 14-year-old orchestrated and attempted murder on a school bus and these problems speak to broken homes deadbeat dads and marijuana use at a yuck age. if al spent as much advocating for fa

but you see al sharpton is a race hustler. he is there to politicize this tragedy. why else was aoc at the funeral?

but sharpton sharpt, he's all for it. >>n the question of medical marijuana and the question of decriminalization, it is a natural fit. it should be a civil right foron people to maintain and enhance their health plans, to not be the ones that go to jail. g and others go to the bank. >> i see the pattern here. the fact is al sharpton and his ilk have been crusaders ofy soci the left on pretty much every social and economic policy that has deeply wounded the black community. and they simultaneously inflame racial tensions with their fake charges of intrinsic racism. across american life, all for their own political and economic benefit. omicit is a sick and it is a twisted game. they're playing. bu and i can't help but hope that more black voters see throughe o the charade before anyreany more damage is done and anydaor more lives lost. u se next time you see a horrificd crime and ask, where's al? you might look in the msnbcms green room and that's the angle . >> joining m ae nongw is pastor. corey brooks, ceo of project h

sharpton, saying we are tired and angry at being choked.— sharpton, saying we are tired and angry att of different things that _ angry at being choked. yes, a lot of different things that were _ angry at being choked. yes, a lot of different things that were touched l different things that were touched on here in his eulogy, he talked aboutjordan neely being choked most of his life, how the city agencies had let him leave when they knew he needed help, sending him back into the streets, and al sharpton said the streets, and al sharpton said the choking needs to stop and we have got to stop criminalising mental health in the city and that more support needs to be given. he said on the train nobody asked jordan neely if he needed help and he read some scripture which said people needed to get their priorities and their values in order. he raised the question, if on the train it had been a white elvis presley impersonator and a black man who had come behind him, and put him down in a chokehold, if the police would have let that person go, because daniel penny was initially questioned an

it's interesting that al sharpton said jordan neely is just like us. actually, no, sir. arrested 42 times. you weren't homeless. he didn't have all these problems. so no, you were just like him. we are trying so hard to make this a thing and it's not working. partly because the people who are on the subway who have to use it to get back and forth to work, they know these things are so random.ged took him onto a subway car and that guy ended up going to the hospital. he's going to be fine. there's a woman who waeady thers stopped. slammed into it. random, by a homeless person. there's no other protesting on their behalf. where do you go to get that sort of support? so all of this stuff walks right up to the line before someone says i better put this person in a choke hold. the other thing i would say is the interesting thing, testimony from others in the car, i did feel like my life was threatened. i was grateful for him coming in. i imagine that will be presented at the grand jury and that we'll be able to get his reputation back. it will take a while. >> jesse: they can

and that's why al sharpton is there.sn't matter if jordan neely was a danger to himself and everyone around him on that subway. it doesn't matter that the former marine, who killed him was acting to protect others. all that al sharpton and the media care about is that jordan neely was black and daniel penny was white. without any context at all they declare it as racism. >> this is a city where this has happened repeatedly and we think about violence against black people, we have unfortunately been at the pert epicenter whetr it's law enforcement or vigilante justice. >> if daniel penny was black and he choked out somebody on the platform, there would have been no question, no need for that man to be walking around. i mean, come on. >> one of them is dead. a black man, black like me. too many black and brown families bear the brunt of system long overdue for reform. >> the left always wants to make everything about race without ever hearing the full story. america might run on dunkin' but democrats run on racial division

politics nation with a great reverend al sharpton starts right now. good evening, and welcome to politicsnation. tonight's lead, let's make a deal. right now, president biden is flying back to washington with a deadline looming. nbc news is reporting tonight that republican house speaker mccarthy had what he said was a productive call with the president earlier today. the two leaders agreed to sit down one-on-one tomorrow in pursuit of a bipartisan compromise on the debt ceiling hike. before leaving the gc some of this morning in japan. we are seeing this right now on capitol hill. >> i think there are some maga republicans in the house who know the damage this would do to the economy. because i am president, and presidents are responsible for everything. biden also announced another round of military aid to ukraine. reiterating support for ukraine's defense with russia. i will be talking about it with senator bill cardin, he joins me just a minute. plus the gop presidential field grows even larger this week. south carolina senator tim scott making hi

i hear the passionate eulogy by al sharpton. want to know where was the reverand and everyone in the crowd and everyone that played the video of the michael jack only impersonation when he needed them most when he was alive. judge jeanine: that's the very question you have to ask al sharpton. jordan neely should never have been on that train. he was threatening, according to the reports of passengers. he was physically threatening. he said he was ready to die and go to jail for the rest of his life. to anybody in the military, that's homicidal. people are afraid, they feared him. that's not the michael jack only impersonator. i wish he could have lived the life of being a michael jackson impersonator. but he was failed by new york city. he was on a list we hadn't heard about before. this is a list new york city keeps of the most dangerous and mentally ill and in need of help. the last one, a 67-year-old woman, her nose was broken by neely and her arm fractured. lawrence: we know there will probably be a civil case after this cri

but activist al sharpton is firing people up saying criminal charges must be filed now. >> if you conotsecute him, in my judgment, you will set a standard of vigilantism that we cannot old rate. the precedent -- tolerate. the precedent alone is a threat to the all of us. we cannot allow this lawlessness to go unchecked. you're not going to choke this young man to death and let us not stand up and raise our voice. >> you know, it's remarkable with al sharpton being around for 20 years, he hasn't saved the world yet, but apparently he is not. julie, it's kind of amazing, i try to stay off the subway as much as possible. you know, i was looking up the numbers, and since 2019 major crimes on the subway have counseled in the -- doubled in the past, since 2019, including 10 killings last year. though pickpocketing is down. but 10 killings last year. >> yeah. >> you know, what are new yorkers supposed to do? >> yeah. move? because, honestly, the crime rate in new york city has been soaring, obviously, since the pandemic thanks to politicians. and now it's getting even worse. so what do you do

>> reverend sharpton, first of all, people forget that you are a preacher. prophetic call is to speak truth to power. whenever you speak truth to power, you're going to agitate and aggravate the powers that be. and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that, unequivocal, ron desantis is trying to turn back the head of time. he's trying to take us back to a dark place. you know, he's trying to appeal to his base. he's trump 2.2. >> well, let me say, we will continue to stay close to this family, the national action network, with you on the board, and certainly, you as the pastor of and mildred are working with the family. i think that it is important, these lawyers who are capable i think the case is something we can't ignore. and you, even though you have many degrees from higher places of learning. i know you have a guttural from johnny greene senior. reverend green, thank you for being with us. up next, my final thoughts, stay tuned. tuned one prilosec otc each morning blocks heartburn all day and all night. prilosec otc reduces excess acid for

gerry: reverend al sharpton delivered the eulogy for jordan neely friday, the 30-year-old who died onon was pointing the finger, of course, at the racial injustice, supposed racial injustice, as the cause. but a new witness has emergedded calling daniel penny, the man accused, a hero, and she's willing to testify on his behalf. has the left rushed to judgment on this? lee, you and i, we ride the subways all the i'm the, can be a fairly terrifying experience. we obviously don't noaa what exactly, precisely what happened, but there's a lot of sympathy for daniel penny, i think. and the fact now that he's been charged by the manhattan d.a., i think, is probably only going to increase the sense of injustice, do you not agree? >> you see what the legal defense fund is now, into the millions. there are a lot of people who want to insure that he has a fair trial. that is important, that you have a jury of your peers, that you have your day in court. none of us were inside of the subway car that day, but from from some of the others who were there that i day who are speaking out, they felt li

so sharpton of course sees green. >> her funeral was right here. jordan sat right there.i watched his mother's funeral would been chopped up and he never been the same. jordan was not annoying someone on the train. jordan was screaming for help. [applause]. we keep criminalizing people with mental illness. people keep criminalizing, people that need help. they don't need abuse, they need help. >> is al sharpton ever been to a funeral for a black person killed by a black person? was he literally worshiped at the altar of division pete she was at billy's funeral. how do we know? there are photographs of her praying all over the internet. she was also seen taking selfies outside the funeral. she's clearly very distraught over his death. after spending decades fighting for colorblind society, and really honestly, almost getting there. maybe 15 years ago. skin color is now supreme. in the media, in our schools, with our politicians. it's a lens through which every story is told. and increasingly it's how our society functions. victor davis hanson is a senior fellow reporter. v

i want to play what al sharpton had to say at jordan neely's funeral today.atch this fraud. >> jordan was screaming for help. we keep criminalizing people with mental illness. a good samaritan help those in trouble they don't choke them out. what happened to jordan was a crime. >> laura: ned only in sharpton's america could you go from kidnapping a seven year old and punching an old lady in the face to a gold and ivory casket. >> well, it's orwellian. evil is good, good is evil, and this is -- we have to be honest about this, laura. we are confronting evil, and these people want to completely silence us and actually speaking out and saying, no, we're not going to tolerate this. yeah we have issues that need to be dealt with. we should actually look into mental institutions again. but we are confronting evil in this country and i think it's incumbent upon many of us to stand up and say there is good, there is evil and we shouldn't be afraid to stand and confront evil. >> laura: sean do you agree this is pure demonic stuff happening right now. >> i think at pur

reverend sharpton, your reaction to all of this. >> it cleary is something that is above being disturbed my judgment from the film, showing the lack of any kind of civility and a legal reaction. whether this young man, brother jordan, was troubled or not, he should not be sentenced with death. you are talking about a life was taken. and it struck me, which is why i immediately put out a statement, he's on the subway impersonating michael jackson, who was close to me. as you know, michael used to come up to the national action network. i preached michael's funeral. you combine that with eric garner, where we have a state law against choke holds, so what is bothering me is the press is looking into the jordan family, what happened to jordan, what happened to his family? what happened to the guy that would choke him for 15 minutes? we don't even know his name. what is the background of this guy that was clearly behind jordan? he can't say self defense, he was not at risk. so to let this go forward in any way is to sanction vigilanteism in this city, and therefore would have national ramific

reverend sharpton.twork, president and host there of the msnbc's politicsnation. rev, my friend, welcome. you spoke about how many americans, criminalize the mentally ill, and the homeless. what would be the most useful, first step in changing that? >> well, i think that when we heard mayor eric adams, who is not there for the time that jordan was being cited in brought back, said that he wants to call a summit on this. he'd bring in that those that disagree with those policies. i said at the funeral, that should include the nearly family and their lawyers. i think we need to really go and do a deep dive on why these agencies would let someone like jordan nearly slipped through the cracks. and who's doing the follow-up? who's doing the monitoring of what happens, that a guy there was on what they listed as -- the people that ought to be not in public, why was he there constantly. i think that we need to really have a methodical approach, and i think that what the mayor suggested could be that of his ope

but where in is al sharpton to go? you know what?there's a whole bunch of jordan neelys on the subways and on the streets. ofets ofew yor new york .ve one you know what? and i'm going to go save one of them. i'm going to go to the streets and help someone out. ran gi just is . and he goes to a funeralg and he'll give a speech. bu helt he does nothing to helpt the people that are just like jordan neely. he just raisessh cash off jordan neilly. that's it. ohth, by theat's way it.. and by the way, excellentiv point. e we live by laws. enforce we should enforce our laws our w and use a court system to determine these these these cases as opposed to just judgin g people on race. bike, one last thing, laura . socia this this woman on the bike, raa she's a social justice warrior. she believes in equity. she believes in racial justice r so the very people who arelike r attacking her online are justshs like p her. she is part of the problem. she should have rejected those those principles and ideas and stood up for people who areh harassed li

but don't tell that to al sharpton. >> he can't say self-defense. he was not at risk. let this go forward in any way is to sanction vigilantism in the city and therefore have national ramifications and we cannot let this guy. >> sharpton led to criminals and this is all from the backseat of a protected private car and don't think al's been on the subway for awhile. if a lunatic does attack you, the left want ws you to sit back and take it and don't want you to feel bad. >> i was hit at one point sitting on the subway by a man who was having a mental health episode and sat next to me and el boying and flailing around and m mitt me in my -- hit me in my face and everyone on public transit saw this happening and seen me struggling. my fear is not the primary object of what we should be focusing on right now. it's the fact that this person is in pain. >> jesse: we're going to get punched in the face and it's okay and we have to consider your attackers feelings and wabc radio host and author of citizens, syd rosenburg joining me now and joining on the street and justice and

sharpton is out there he hurt his wrist, give him a million dollars. but if an officer gets shot dead in the streets trying to protect the neighborhood, sharpton doesn't show up to the funeral. some asian lady gets cold congressed gets her teeth knocked out? noble cares. first grader gets hit in the neck with a stray bullet? no one cares. media doesn't talk about that. someone o.d.s on fentanyl that came across the open border? they don't talk about that. they only care if they can blame you for something or if they need something to take the blame away from them. jordan kneely, the violent homeless guy with 40 arrests who died in a chokehold would be alive today if a white liberal judge and a white liberal prosecutor hadn't cooked up a deal that sent him to therapy instead of prison. white liberals unleashed a violence schizophrenic drug addict on the people and then when he died they blamed racism. we feel horrible that neely is dead. what a tragedy. he never should have died like that. but the media didn't tell you the truth about his death, about w

i think that, you know, i spoke to the reverend al sharpton this morning.e things he told me coming back from buffalo was, you know, this was almost verbatim, he said i'm tired of going to these funerals, and i think he speaks for a lot of americans, not only black americans, but those the target of hate and anti-semitism over the last decade, and americans who are exhausted by gun violence, and exhausted by the kind of political hatred and division that's been on the rise in the united states, so i think we're at a moment in this country's history where we need to use every imaginable democratic tool and peaceful tool in our disposal to hold anyone accountable for the violence and the hate, accountable. excuse me, anyone responsible, yeah. >> there was a report in the "washington post" about jack teixeira, who -- the pentagon documents leaker who they did a deep dive, and he clearly, they saw, was readying himself for a race war. his friends said it, he wrote about it. when the tops shooter was, there's no place for you or your ignorant ideologies in a civ

most importantly, the media weren't there either and al sharpton wasn't there.ne of the best things that penny if said this his interview, he was asked about al sharpton the, he said i don't really know who that is because i don't really, quote, pay that much attention to celebrities. and i think we talked about yesterday on "the big saturday show" the pregnant nurse who does have receipts that that was the bike she was supposed to get on and pedallal herself home after a 12- hour shift, 6 months pregnant. you don't need to touch someone for them to feel threatened that they can't move from point a to point b. perhaps the same thing is true here. his lawyer is pretty bullish if his public statements about the uniformity and the, really the tenacity with which the other witnesses have already come forward privately as to what they saw and how they felt. now, if there's too much extreme force, that's another question. there were two other men involved in restraining mr. neely, and i think all of that will come out in a court of law as well. >> yeah, penny's attorn

>> i am not satisfied at all, reverend sharpton. i think that president biden and secretary mayorkas are trying to make the best out of the really bad situation. a no win situation. their hands are tied to a large extent by the fact that we have a broken immigration system. and it is overdue for a reform and overhaul. at the same time, we will be reverting back to title eight immigration policy which does provide for individuals to present themselves for asylum. that then moves the process into an immigration court, so that individuals could state their case. i think that what secretary mayorkas has prepared for the cbp one app that enables people to actually apply for asylum seek a pathway to the united states via an app, it is an audible endeavor. it's not where it needs to be. i'm hearing about a lot of technical difficulties that individuals are having, accessing the -- getting it up and running will be an imperative. and at the same time, it is critical that we build the pressure for comprehensive immigration reform. you know,

i know we heard from reverend al sharpton. what did he say? >> reporter: one of the things he said was he wanted people to think about how significant and pervasive mental illness is in this country. he said he suspects that every american family probably has a member or knows someone who is also suffering from mental illness and as a result of that he wondered why with it being so pervasive there's not more compassion to help people. take a listen. >> people keep criminalizing people that need help, they don't need abuse. they need help. in your name, we're going to change services in this city. jordan, you didn't die for nothing. what they meant for bad we'll make good. we're about to have a new city, and new city services. >> reporter: so one of the things when they say no justice, no peace, they're not simply talking about the criminal justice procedure playing out. folks are talking about justice in terms of providing services for people who are mentally ill. >> yeah, really important services too, rehema ellis, thank you for that. >>> we
