did the police know tamia rice had a toy gun?ve from an era of interpretation because there was no interpretation to be had from that video. the man was murdered. he had his hand behind his back and was motionless. the officer was told by the crowd what he was doing to george floyd and murdered him anyway. there is no interpretation after that video. laura: congressman castro, thank you for joining us. cracked are appearing in the support for president trump. it not only is the former defense secretary been scathing about his former bs, but a republican senator says she may not vote f him. let's bring in former advisor to president george w. bush and a bbc analyst. thank you for being with us tonight. when you hear jim mattis saying the president is trying to divide us, does tt strike you as a potential tipping point in the trunk presidency? -- trump presidency? >> these are not good times for esident trump. the current defense secretary at odds with military force on american soil, and his predecessor saying the president is div

there's a lot of agendas going on at the same time sidewalk tamia sleep there are people the parts of the political class have abrogated their responsibility and washed their hands of it we'll talk about that and 2nd how the program but there are other people and he found that i have their own agenda here and not did to all of these different groups and some people are just angry ok i mean that's true as well but it's seems to when when when when legal authority a legitimate authority collapses there are plenty of people that want to come in and drop it and this is a ruling class as long as they're insulated from it go ahead am i right anthony or not. oh you're right on point absolutely it's a it's a greater thing going on here or you're breaking apart authority and then maybe a different kind of authority is installed more represents what people wanted to be when i say people i don't mean just a regular everyday person i think i'm not going to like what happens but those they are trying to replace it they want to have their particular ideology go forward and this is the vehicle throu

this legislation calls for a national registry so that would not have happened and tamia rice would have graduated from high school. i understand change is difficult but i'm am certain police officers are professionals who risk their lives every day. they are just as interested in building a strong relationship with the communities they serve based on mutual trust and respect as those who rely on their protection. are they want to increase and upgrade the profession. having national standards should never be that you can do a chokehold in one city and not in another. there should be basic standards. there should be basic accreditation and continuing education, just as there are so many other professions. when i was at the service yesterday, and when i was there i looked up at the picture of george floyd. i saw the year he was born. 1973. that was an important year in my life because that was the year i joined an organization -- >> we will go back to what we were doing. i will go first. changing the behavioral and cultural police starts at the top. let me say that again. changing the cult

. >> i am tamia rice. >> i am michael brown. >> i'm phillip white. >> i'm jordan baker. >> we will not>> we assert our right to peacefully protest. it shouldn't take this long to admit. so, on behalf of the national football league, this is what, the players, would like to hear you state. that we, the national football league, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of black people. >> silencing our players from peacefully protesting. >> we, the national football league, believe black lives matter. black lives matter. >> black lives matter. >> very powerful. listen. >> do you think this video influenced the commissioner's decision to speak out? do you think it's going to start a change in the nfl? because there was no nfl insignia, no logo, no nothing. it was all players. >> well, i can tell you that the nfl is supporting the players. so you're going to see a change. i just think these guys, today, they want to see change. and they're just a different generation, and they don't want to wait, years later. they want to see change now. so i know the league is going to support the pla

the contra costa county da filed 34 charges against joseph can tamia. is accused of taking more than a quarter million dollars of campaign funds for his personal use. the das office says he spent it on a trip to asia and also repaid personal loans. these allegations cover a period between 2010 and 2016. he is due in court next month. >>> mountain line apparently still roaming the streets of san francisco. check it out. that big cat was first spotted around russian hill on monday night . very goes. you can see a little slow down version right there. yesterday that kat showed up downtown in the rincon hill area. san francisco animal control says the mountain lion is young and most likely lived in san mateo before leaving its mother in the spring. they say if you see it you should backup slowly and keep basing it and do not run. also, people in san francisco for now in areas where that outline is spotted keep your pets inside and watch your small children closely. it's a strange thing to say that in an urban environment, but here we are. >> steve, it's jus

since the time they have been eight years old or nine years old they've dealt with sara bland and tamia rice. this is the final breaking point. the whole sequence is there is a million other straws beneath it. people are tired of commissions. they are tired of speeches and talking. they are tired of thoughts and prayers. they want legislative action to take place. as congressman ford said it's time to build that rain coalition of black, brown, latino, white peoples of working together for positive social change. this may be that cairo's moment where we can make the systemic change to our nation that are needed to form the more perfect union with the promise. >> congressman ford, you were known for reaching across the aisles, a more moderate democrat which meant something very different to the early 2000's but the moderate rain wing of the democratic party is caused and democrats annexed some time of legislation that would change policing in terms of use of force and outgoing chalk holes and civilian review and a number of different proposals being loaded. so much of what we have seen on

the family of george floyd, the family of breonna taylor, eric garner, tamia rice, philando castile,ng, and the list goes on. it is time that we focused on the issue at hand which is addressing a crisis that has really ripped innocent african-american lives away from their families and communities. i do not condone the violence we have seen, but i do think it is a distraction. again, the overwhelming number of marches and protests we have seen take place in our country have been peaceful, focused, and intentional on lifting up the message of unchecked police violence and racial bias and systemic discrimination that is tearing apart our country. they are marching for the purpose of promoting healing and bringing communities together and addressing a problem in a way that we have not previously and that is the issue that we should focus on. host: we will go to evelyn in virginia. democratic caller. go ahead. caller: yes, i agree with ms. clarke 100%. i feel that it is too much police brutality. i feel that there should be new trailing. sometimes when police stop you, they affect they a

he never would have been hired by another department, and this made tamia rice would graduate from high school. police officers are left to pick up the pieces. police officers are the first to say this is unfair. they weren't trained to be social workers or health providers. homelessness and substance abuse are health and economic problems. in los angeles we have a geo called the twin towers with inmates.of in los angeles we refer to it as the nation's most expensive mental health institution, because the majority of the people in the jail suffer from mental illness. this did not happen overnight. 1990 i started an organization in south central los angeles to address a health and economic problem society was criminalizing. that was the problem with crack cocaine. what we did, we didn't expand drug treatment. people.incarcerated many of those people are in prison today. the justice in policing act reinvests in our communities and empowers them to shape the future of public safety through grants and community-based organizations to develop solutions. after 1990i watched as the federal and

so sad, freddy gray, walter scott, tamia rice, michael brown, everett garner, my colleagues in the otheru. we cannot settle for anything less than transformative structural change, which is why the justice and policing act will remove barriers of prosecuting police misconduct and covering damages by addressing the quality and unity doctoring. will end -- demilitarized the police by limiting the transfer of military weaponry to state and local police departments. will combat brutality by requiring body -- board cameras, banning the choke hold's, and end racial profiling. it will finally make lynching a federal hate crime, and i support the chairman and are to distinguish senators for their work in helping to pass that this year. police brutality is heartbreaking reflection of an entrenched system of racial injustice. in america. true justice can only be achieved with full comprehensive action and that is what we are doing today. this is a first step. was more to come. in the coming weeks, the house will hold hearings, once the house passes the justice and policing act, he must swiftly tak

where was the social contract for tamia -- for tamir r ice? put simply, for black americans, the social contract is always been contaminated by racism and white super missy, the nation's original sin -- white supremacy, the nation's original sin. a black american has more than doubled the chance of being killed by the police as a white american. police encounters are a leading cause of death for young black men. the problems of police brutality we confront today reflects the persistence of embedded structural racism in our country. violent white supremacy is the real deep state that we must uproot and discard in america. yes, my friends across the aisle have been in search for it for several years right now. racism is the real deep state in america. violent white supremacy dominated our country for an entire century, and the supreme court did nothing other than constitutionalize it in the dred scott decision, which determined an african american has no right a white man is bound to respect. so we had a civil war and a reconstruction come our f
