thurman thank you. thank you, mr. president. fellow colleagues, i ask that you lend me your ears. your mind, your heart, for a few minutes. grieve the loss of my friend and colleague, the senator from jasper along with his eight sisters and brothers. we needed time to mourn the loss. the vigil that i attended was powerful and beautiful. i feel that i am out of place after thought and prayer to try and find the words to make a difference with you and with others. when i think of this senator from jasper, i think of how he touched me with that wonderful biblical speech about thomas during our body camera debate. it was described as his finest moment. yet it was only a few weeks ago. he had so much more to offer yet was taken to soon, just at the age of 41. i am selfish because i do not want us to lose him. i want to continue, for him to continue, to be a pastor and husband and father and public servant that he is. when tragedy strikes, even christians ask why. why did this happen? why would someone with so much hate in their heart they would hurt others? i cannot comprehend the hate

walter thurman was practicing with the first team on defense as a safety. signed as a corner the.ff season former seattle seahawks byron maxwell. eagles did try to upgrade that position on the defense and now he put him zest out there really out there in a conversation with peter king putting his name to an eagles super bowl guarantee this year. now, he won a super bowl with seattle stepped out. here are this reasons why. >> the coach we got here. we going to win. the belief the guys in the locker room how we gel together you can see that already. you know, we don't have any selfish characters. that's number one avenue winning team you really don't have selfish characters on the team. you need guys to stick together and not, you know, come down on each other. you need guys when a bad play happens, come on bro get it together next play. >> they have a good bunch of guys. they got to stay healthy. >>> all right. little college baseball from last night. college world series to los angeles. university of maryland and ucla were a throw by lamont wade. gets the runner at the plate. that

democrats seem fine with it, thurman, bird, clinton, gore, the bubbas loved it in 92. never mind removing a flag will never prevent a massacre, if anything it adds to the rebel image. a city run by a liberal is way more harmful than a piece of cloth. we are one country and unity beats partitions pride. if removing a flag makes relatives of the charleston victim feel like peace i am with them 100 percent. you can feel this way and also feel ire for an outrage machine bent on redissolving history. it's okay to ask when it didding to end? their present is so tedious. identity pirates of today are just bores with bull horns and as their crusade demonizing a flag many will raise it higher than before. not as high as the rainbow flag flies now. the constitution guarantees marriage equality. in doing so they have reaffirmed that all americans are entitled to the equal protection of the law. people should be treated equally regardless of who they are or who they love. >> someone would like to extend my sympathies to gays every where for you are no longer gay, you are miserable

in 1994 with the port of senate icon strom thurman he ran for a seat in the house and won. four years later graham was one of the most outspoken republicans urging the impeachment of president clinton clinton. >> let it be said that any president who cheats our institutions shall be impeached. >> his approach made his a national g.o.p. star. and when his term expired he ran for a seat and won it easily. he has traveled to hot spots with john mccain close friended a colleague. >> i'm here to talk to israeli allies about their concerns about the u.s. security council defining the outline of a peace process. for 40 years it has been the policy of the united states not to let that happen. >> during the obama administration graham has been tough on the president. he was one of the president's harshest critics of shifting policies and creating confusion in handling the war in syria. >> for two years the president has allowed this to become--quite frankly--a debacle. when it comes to what we should do in syria given the undifference and contradictions, it is going to be a tough se

they were riding out in those vintage convertibles, nate thurman, rick,al, great to see them all. >>ct day to have the top down. spencer christian is here now with our accuweather update. >> a great day for a parade. just gloriously sunny and nice and mild. here is a look at live doppler 7 hd that's exactly the conditions we have across the bay area. just a few wlis piispy clouds around. warmer today in most locations. 4 to 7 degrees warmer in most locations, although half moon bay showed no change at all. here is a live view looking at bright blue skies. currently 64 in san francisco, 69 in oakland. high today only 72 which is exactly average for this time of the year. apparently it felt a lot warmer to many people because of hours of exposure to the bright sun, but it was not hot. 75 right now, here is a live view currently 86 at santa a rosa, 91 at fairfield, 92 in concord, 91 livermore. and blue skies over the golden gates. we'll see mainly clear skies this evening. a little bit of fog near the coast and bay and early morning hours and wide range of highs tomorrow ranging from up

one of those free agent walter thurman signed as cornerback, but has played mostly safety in the mini>> the same road that i had when i was playing you know, same thing you're in the box you have to make those tackles, everything is a little more short not really covering the shortage, not comfortable with what position. >> oh, those phillies. they just keep on t won't stop. to the ballpark second and third, nobody out they are down five-one in the fourth inning. all right just put the ball in play. don brown strikes out looking camera, strikes out swinging. codey strikeout looking. didn't even put the ball in blame. six-four, in the ninth. one out. jeff the phillies lose six-four lost nine straight, 19 out of 22. >> us open starts tonight on fox. that's sports in a minute. i'm howard eskin. >> well, good thing you and i went to opening day together. >> yes. >> so much hope, right? >> the only game we'll to. >> yes, like nine straight now. getting hard to watch flight. >> it is. fox's bruce gordon was at the ballpark last night to see if nip of the fans out there still have any hope.

states as a dixie from south carolina strom thurman's son was standing in that crowd.na who represents the african-american district. these things matter. and by doing that she showed that, in fact south carolina it's time to move on and i'm glad she did it. >> there are some who aren't being as clearcut or standing on the sidelines. here's what former mississippi governor haley had to say not long ago. >> i am not offended at all by our flag or the confederate flag, for that matter. but some people are. and the ones who have to deal in congress, the ones that have to deal in the legislature, the ones that have to deal in the county governments, they're the ones that ought to take the leadership, not the has-beens. >> what do you think of haley harbour saying all this jimmy? >> i see where he's coming from having grown up in the south and being a descendant of confederate veterans if you will of former slave owners. but here's the difference. your legacy isn't so much what they did, your legacy is what you do going forward for the next generation. if i were in haley ha

one of those free agent walter thurman, who signed as cornerback but now played mostly safety in the mini camps. >> same thing in the box do you have make those tackles everything little more shorter not really cuffing the corners as much. but feel comfortable at the position. >> us open begins tonight on fox. that's sports in a minute. i'm howard eskin. >> 5:41 the time. coming up police say man with history of drunk driving handed his keys over to his 13 year old daughter. what they say tipped him off that something was just not right. >> shattered windows showing up all over one area, the scary possibility police are not ruling out. >> ♪ ♪ >> oh, boy. >> oh, you. >> give up. i'm a lost cause. >> i can't give up. it is a partnershipment like when people see us together, it is like where's chris how is chris? did you teach chris -- did i not teach him that so everyone knows. >> oh, i need a lot of intense therapy. >> back to school you go. so we did a little thing at the park yesterday in the summertime. >> it was fun. you got to watch me try to lance, and laughed and laughed and la

never mind it was the flag of a democrat, the democrats say fine with it, hollings, thurman, byrd, lincolngore, the bubbas loved it in '92. never mind that removing a flag will never prevent a massacre. if anything, it adds to the rebel image. removing the flag is indeed the falling and maybe it is necessary but a city run by a liberal that's way more harmful than a piece of cloth. we are one country and unit speaks our pride. if removing the flag from the capitol makes the victims of the charleston people feel at peace i'm with them 100% but you can feel that way and feel ire for an outrage machine bent on dissolving history. it's okay to ask when is this going to end? some are preoccupied in shaming the past because the present is so tedious. identity pirates of today are just bores with bullhorns and as their crusade demonizes the flag many will simply raise it higher than before but not as high as the rainbow flag flies now. >> this morning the supreme court recognized that the constitution guarantees marriage equality in doing so they have reaffirmed to all americans the idle truth of

have quite a few republican leaders, governors, major republican figures, i saw the son of strom thurmaning out and saying he wants the flag down, calling it a symbol of racism, so there's movement on the right side of the political spectrum that's not been there for generations on this issue. on the other hand, there's the bill crystal, the limbaughs, the coulters, where will this shake out? >> they've lost. it's like gay marriage. the issue has passed them by. the confederate flag was burned this week, not in a violent way, but in a rational, reasonable way, in terms of its use in any public setting. i think that won't be happening. where it has been used, it's going to be retired. now there are confederate monuments out there and statues, people are writing "black lives matters" on confederate statues in graveyards and other places, public parks. but as a public figure, so to speak, the confederate flag is dead. you can't ban it. people will still buy it. it will still be on beer can holders and things like that, it will be waved at nascar races and other places. you can't stop that.

don't miss it paul is the son of segregationist strom thurman. he ran for a state rights candidate.ens is we just don't talk about white violence in the same way, and there are some questions we could ask. what if we said is there something wrong with the white family? what should politicians do about white crime? what if we asked when will white leadership step up and stop right wing domestic terrorism? we don't even use discourse like that, and sometimes it is just the naming of whiteness itself that is part of what must happen. >> what's part of this whole thing that i believe is the organizing principle of the world is the denial of what you know to be true right? that's kind of the reality, especially when it comes to issues of race. i think language is really really important. and symbols, we were talking at the break about the symbolism of taking down the flag a symbolic act versus attacking structural racism the idea that this event by this individual, and a lot of people wanted to say, this is a lone wolf this is not connected to anything. and i would say i agree there is a

one of its sponsors paul thurman, son of the notorious segregationist strom thurmond. >> i'm proud to be on the right side of history regarding the removal of this symbol of racism and bigotry from the statehouse. it is time to acknowledge our past, atone for our sins and work towards a better future. >> today the statehouse parking spot for senator clementa pinckney was empty. we can start honoring the memory of him and the other eight victims by moving past icons of hate. i thought today, as i watched the proceedings, in 2007 a new york paper did a trace of my background and found that the family of strom thurmond owned my family in slavery just two generations ago in edgefield, south carolina. today strom thurmond's son stood up and voted against the confederate flag. something i've advocated tore a long time. old issues can be resolved if we don't turn around. joining me now from columbia south carolina, is state representative seth whipper, from missouri congressman emanuel cleaver and e.j. dionne of "the washington post." thank you all for being here. >> good to be with you, rev
