i'm clear i'm white and i have a white frame of reference, i have a white world view and i move through the world with a white experience. it is not just a universal human experience. it is most particularly a white experience, a society that is deeply separate and unequal by race. so while i'm always coming from that position, and for perspective i want to be explicit but tonight and i'm focusing on the majority of the folks in this room who are also white and who are the majority of the people at the table making decisions that impact the lives of people who aren't at those tables, and with whom we are not in relationships. and this is arguably the most complex, nuanced social dilemma since the beginning of this country. there are many, many, many roads in and all of them are important. absolutely is this not the only perspective, but it is one that is consistently missing. we have professional development on racism, we ten to study them, right? what their struggles, their triumphs, who are their heros and heroines and what do we need to know when working with them. and, again, still

if you are white and you love this country, you are a white nationalist. there is a big difference between white supremacy and white nationalism. ok? you have to stop using that word to describe someone who you believe is a nazi. i say that because there are trump supporters, people other -- on the right that are politically correct. that is the problem. if white nationalists -- what's the problem. they want to preserve the culture. white supremacists want their culture to be dominant. whether you like it or not. it is not fair that my family can go back to the island and wave their flag and say that they are from this country and they are proud. somebody from here says they are proud to be an american and they are white, you are a nazi. that is bs. i do not stand around with a sign that says blacks for trump. latinos for trump, christians for trump. i do not stand for that because a white man held a sign that says blacks for trump, why should i hold the senate says -- sign that says latinas for trump? this is the most diverse crowd than that crowd out the

house, the white house press conferences. we ask one question, we ask two questions. enough already. >> this is between hoban and latrobe. was there an age difference between them? and we -- i go to st. john's church and latrobe is just revered there. we are in decatur house, which was designed by latrobe as well. he evidently was difficult to deal with. can i ask, was there an age difference? was one more mature? george washington liked hoban, didn't like latrobe. there was a portrait of latrobe with the washingtons -- i mean at mt. vernon with the washingtons. i just wonder how latrobe was not so well thought after. >> who can take that? >> it's an interesting question on the basis that latrobe, i think, his real problem was two-fold. he had a very acerbic temperament. he lost his temper very easily. he was self-opinionated. he was good. he was actually very competent, but as a personality he was a person who tended to laud it over others. he was coming to the stage when he was falling between the air stock racy, if you lik

called a white house of stone. you have written so many books about the white house. why this project about the stone at the white house? >> the one thing that hasn't been addressed is what is left of the white house. it is sacred historically. what is left and how did it get there. that is why this book was written. >> before we get into the story of the stone we have to back up and talk about the location. how did the white house end up in this spot in washington d.c.? >> it was part of the city plan, that george washington approved. it calls for a palace five times the size of this. and the sellers were dog. they were making bricks out of clay. washington relocated the house to put it on the axis. there were two axes. one running from the capital down the mall and one running here. it runs right through the house. washington placed it right on their. when he reduce the size of the house by a fifth, he wanted to still be in the plan as it was supposed to be one of the two great important buildings in washington.

you know, to get into the white house, you know everybody wants to work at the white house until they get the job. then they don't know what to do with it. i really mean it. that's the truth. you have to understand this job is very scary because of the people you are serving. you are no longer serving just anybody like in a hotel or whatever, you're serving people that have achieved great things in life, that have had great jobs, so you better be on the same level with your food. i also served numerous emperors, kings, heads of state all during my tenure. but when i started at the white house, i was already in that line of work for 20 years, learning under the best chefs available in paris, france, germany, and specially the hotel i mentioned because that used to be the number one hotel in the world. it still exists today but i think it's lost to the years because now it's part of a chain. in those days the savoy was owned by family. big difference. big difference. and the customers, the guests that we were feeding at the savoy in those days, just to give you a short list, we had a lo

what is the significance of the white house? the policy adopted since the time of washington is the exterior of the white house will not be changed. no one has permitted that and even with truman he was not having that. he did alter the inside considerably and winslow in fact wanted to reuse and replace all of the material that was taken out. this would not allow truman to depart from office from the white house. given a harry approach to it is forget about everything and just to buy it in. most of it was dumped and went out to various military dumps around the place. and all of the new material was brought in the 1940s. of course what has happened since then is it required a new association with all of the presidents and everything happening since the truman time. going back to washington, but has not changed, i should not say him i should say the end of the beginning of andrew jackson's presidency when the portugal and the gallery and the portugal run on the north side. the gallery in the south. when it was completed that noth

in july twenty sixth abducted near a white helmet base in ireland sorry why is there no white helmet documentation of the killing of this boy. first of all vanessa billie's not a journalist that makes reliable reports because she knows that she is not truthful and she does not work in an unbiased way when russia stop the o.p.c. double teams from going to do much to check the place for the use of chlorine gases in the last few bombings vanessa beatty was present there herself the russians allowed her to access that particular place when they did not allow the international teams to do the same for this reason we cannot confirm any news that have come from vanessa believe that we did not know about that place we did not know about that issue we only heard about it through social media and we denied the story we did not see that event to publish or announce it we have denied that incident and it does not abide by the international humanitarian content rules and regulations do and certainly if in these aren't. thank you. thank you very much. coming up in part two of going on the ground w

and i will expect to see the white house expect to see the white house fall down when bucki buckingham palace falls down. >> i'm reminded of the longevity of windsor castle and a thousand years of that particular building which has changed so much over a thousand years. although i believe firmly like lydia and others that the white house will continue to, broadly speaking as we sit today, but as you were saying earlier, christopher, about what her majesty said in ireland that we shouldn't be bound by our history, and i think very much today we have organizations such as the national trust here in the u.k. which are very, very much taken toward preserving collections buildings and very much historic, excellent and good, but at the same time we have to make that balance right between the living buildings, evolution and one has to look at windsor castle just to see all of buckingham palace, for that matter, which was a considerably smaller house when it first started out. so evolution is incredibly important to stay alive. >> ed langell? >> touching on kind of the same theme, i don't know

bush white house did the same. and so did the obama white house although again, the weak investigations were very problematic. all presidents to a certain degree feel that the press is undermining them. it's an adversarial process. mr. trump was in era, you can choose your own news cycle, you can choose your own news feed. you can decide what news you're going to get because trust in major institutions have eroded badly and we have not necessarily helped ours selvelv along the way. but we've never had a president who has characterized the press as not just disliking him, but disliking america. we've never had a president who was engaged in incredibly personalized demonizing attacks as this president has against individual reporters and yet, we've also never had a president who simultaneously craves the attention of the media one particular in mind while simultaneously excoriating the press. and the times is like the elites in manhattan that rejected him years ago and looks for approval. as i said trust in media was

we have no way out. >> white lives matte white lives matter! >> white lives matter!ives matter! (shouting) >> (bleep) >> i got punched. i got kicked. i remember getting hit in the head. i thought it was with a torch. i stepped forward at one point and i got shoved back. i thought i was going to die. the thing that i was thinking as the melee was happening was, "i just need to keep the camera going." you know, that was the only thing that i could do. yeah, it was like a hundred people beatingp like a small group of us and a small group of students. >> thompson:en or 15 people? >> yeah. you could feel how angry they were, but also how happy they were, you know, to bg this, to be intimidating people like this, and this happy rage. >> thompson: had you ever seen that displayed before? >> no, never in my life. theyere cheering, they were running through the streets, yelling at people. and they walked away and theyay got ith it. they're coming in here the next day ready to do more. i thought like, "here we go. w yeah, hego." di (police chatter) >> thompson: the morning aft

on white crime. they never once did that. there was a shoot-out right outside of houston between a white motorcycle gang where nine people got killed, they didn't call it that. when putin kills russians, they don't call it russian on russian crime. why are we the only ones get that designation -- when something would happen to you, they would look at who first? the people closest to you. why all of a sudden they use that to describe an inherent criminality in us and that gives them the reason that they get to do what they do. the most dangerous word in america, words in america are not the n word. it's black on black crime. black people kill black people. white people kill white people. asians kill asians. husbands kill wives. wives kill husbands. virtually every crime 2 to 1 black to white. how is it all of a sudden -- the department of justice came out with a study that said that black people and white people commit crimes about the same level, we get harshest sentences for them. i said this earlie

both then, you covered obama white house and now, you are in -- you are 18 months into the trump white house. how are those different? are they different at all? [laughter] >> a little different. >> we fought for access under the obama administration. we often had adversarial interactions. i was often shouting questions at former president obama as well. there are some very notable so, iences though, and will speak to some of those. i know you will address them in your questioning. i think one of the biggest differences is the pace of our new cycle. as a white house correspondent, you are constantly trying to stay ahead of the curve, and under the obama administration, we would be sort of tracking three, maybe for big stories at any given time, and i think under the trump administration, that has just grown exponentially. policy,overing domestic forward policy, covering his tweets, which at times can completely change the news cycle. we are covering the russian investigation, special counsel is investigation into russian meddling. that is a beat in and of itself, yet we can never fall

folks are committed by white folks, and so is white on white crime because basically proximity is the biggest determination of criminal conduct. as you illustrate black on blak crime simplicity, the bogeyman. you also mentioned something that's interesting which you said the biggest indicator of crime is poverty. now, chapter 18, you have titled how to get a job. so can you elaborate? so we can work our way to the fact this when people in places like chicago are struggling with unemployment. >> guest: the sad thing about it is that it was, that was probably the biggest satire we are a nation that has not invested in the education since the '70s. '70s. we started to fall behind. even when you look at the schools in chicago, look at the schools in chicago, look how far behind the arc. look how they learn, and you expect people in the modern era, right now we are a country who has fallen behind education. that's exacerbate in our community. exponentially. you have a lot of poor white people they can't get jobs. you know what that says about us, but it would be interesting to see if we ev

through the white house. and so mrs. bush had made sure that any of the resident's staff that were still working in the white house that had been there in the johnson time were there to greet mrs. johnson at the diplomatic reception room door when she stepped in. and in addition, one of the butlers that had worked for the johnsons, mr. german, was now a part-time elevator operator, operated the president's elevator in the white house, just a few days a week, mrs. bush made sure that he was there and that he was the one that greeted mrs. johnson when the door was opened of the car for her to get out. and the way that mrs. johnson reached up in recognition to embrace mr. german and how he embraced her, is really would just make you weep. but would also, the two last things that i'll just say about mrs. johnson's visit, her last visit to the white house, is, mrs. bush wheeled her into the vermeil room on the ground floor, which had just been repainted under one of the restoration projects that mrs. bush did, tha

the white house. some extraordinary language by the president and a stunning defense from the white house if you can call it that. take us through it. >> reporter: it was extraordinary language when you stop and think about it. the president of the united states calling a former employee a dog and that employee happened to be the highest ranking african-american official here at the white house and waging a war of her against the very white house. at the press briefing today, press secretary sarah sanders said, look, the president insults people of all races equally and fights fire with fire. jim, one thing is clear here tonight. there's plenty of that. >> i can't guarantee anything. but i can tell you that the president addressed this question directly. >> reporter: that's how white house press secretary sanders answering the question today of whether a recording to exist of president trump ever using the n-word while producing "the apprentice" reality show. the president denied it as omarosa newman

i had done it for eight years and covered the obama white how -- obama white house from two years of campaign all the way through the white house and then to the last day when i waved goodbye at andrews air force base. i felt like i had done it and i had done it well. it is a little bit exhausting, even for a newspaper. it's even worse for network reporters. it's a really great ride. that was also a great story. it's easy to look back now and think that things were so much easier during the obama years , that the white house was so much easier to cover and they had such a different attitude toward the press, and that is true. but it was by no means easy to figure out what was really going on in the obama white house. remember how he got elected by going around the traditional -- all the institutions that people used to have to deal with, and one of them was us, the press corps, so he was masterful with social media. he could command an audience with whomever he wished to talk to, and he very often did that. he was so powerful on the stump that people would just write what he said on

white supremacist and white nationalists have arrived at lafayette park across the street from the whitese. it appears to be a fairly contains an controlled situation. because police had several layers of protection. want to point out, they can only have about two dozen of these guys .3 dozen or so basically just over a handful causing this type of attention and confrontation. as they are faced down by the so-called shut it down counter protesters.on the vote is ted williams, former dc homicide detective. you've got to give it to police and kudos to law enforcement. you had several layers of security. next to them were police officers on bicycles using the bicycles as mobile barriers to basically keep both sides apart. i guess you could say protect the white supremacists and keep them away from the counter protesters. it does appear to be a fairly peaceful despite the catcalls and yelling and the electricity in the air. >> absolutely. what the viewers need to understand is this is the nation's capital and there are all sorts of demonstrations throughout the year in the nation's capital.

basically if you're a white kid you can either confess your privilege and condemn your white. collar what you have to do to be an ally to people of color and anyone else who's oppressed or you go off to the all right there's really no middle ground for any one who existed anymore and i that i believe that that is largely because of the militancy of these for a claim radicals on the left so what they're doing does of the purpose of the far right and vice versa every time the far right rears their heads the left goes oh see that's why we need to do what we do and we're going to double down on it and it becomes a cycle and they both kind of feed each other while most. people in society who just want to live their lives are kind of caught in the middle you know i also heard that several universities in the u.s. have been offering housing gang creating learning communities for black students only my california state and the university of connecticut claim this. down to two they need to actually create safe environments for students of color what is that supposed to mean is this to

people in american society and he is one of these white nationalists who believes that white voices are being marginalized in america these people who are here who are probably many times more people than the white nationalists are record to show up later today. very much reject that message and they want to put forward the message that washington d.c. is a multicultural place it's a welcoming place and this sort of ideology coming from the other side is not welcome here maya could you give us a feel of how many people have turned up to the rally where you're currently at and what the numbers are expected to be like from the international news from the white nationalists rather. edith i am rather bad at estimating myself by just looking at this crowd ahead of me as at least a couple of hundred people and we know that there are other rallies going on around you see in other areas so it's going to be very crowded at lafayette park later on the white supremacist side they're expecting maximum probably four hundred people and reports have been that it's probably even less. maya shrader

when we look at the white house, what is it about the white house that is so distinctly american? >> the first thing is the journalist whose name was willis , he was right-- quite reputable that his pallbearers were led by longfellow. he was serious. he wrote a short description on the white house that he described as being ultimately a sufficient measure of space for the republic. too much was an assertion. essentially what washington had in mind all the time was that these states could usually fracture and later on it was effectively to say that washington converted-- it was a compact into a constitution that is a definition of a nation which applies to individuals. instead of passing back through the states the constitution affected individuals directly. >> real quickly, you know the roots in dublin. when you look at the white house what do you see that is uniquely american? >> it's an interesting question because focusing on the irish, i think what we see that was modeled on obviously it's the government that an image of in terms of how it's expressed or how it expresses an am

you must be so boring to be white council white people. democrats have redefined racism precisely so people like sarah jong can say racist things and still get jobs at the new york times would the new york times be so forgiving if white was replaced with black new york times i am an older white guy and you find it ok with sarah jong inflammatory racist comments to be just fine shame on your double standards. sorry on the stand that this type of rhetoric is not acceptable of the times and we are confident that she will be an important force for the editorial board moving forward. its rector of the blockbuster guardians of the galaxy movies james dunn was just fired after offensive tweets dating from two thousand and eight i guess. today a.b.c. stepped up did the right thing canceling the hit reboot of roseanne after the star of the show roseanne barr doing something so abhorrent i wish i didn't have to repeat it. allows for the news looking for moscow so far this morning things have so much for watching the saturdays go and good kevin zero

i mean, the white house staff is not diverse. it is overwhelmingly white. there is not an african-american on the senior staff of the white house. there hasn't been since omarosa left the staff. you could also question, you know, how influential she was when she was there, some of the top decisions that are made every day. past presidencies, including in george w. bush's presidency, there have been african-american figures who have been on the senior staff, who have been counseling the president daily on issues. we don't have that with this administration. >> marc, final thought on that, would you like to see this president bring more african-americans, people of color, into his inner circle, particularly in the west wing? when kellyanne conway was asked about this, she pointed to ben carson. he is, of course, a cabinet secretary. the criticism is that there aren't african-american voices very close to the president. >> i'll tell you though, this president values the input from his cabinet secretaries. he's had more cabinet meetings -- excuse me -- than i c

one right by the white house, the anti-hate groups are drastically outnumbering the white supremacists, and people are gathering also in charlottesville where there is a heavy police presence and they have blocked off the streets there where heather heyer was killed in last year's violence. we are watching all of the protests today. brian todd is fwol lowing the anti-racist groups, and sara sidner following the protests in washington, d.c., and kelly har tongue wi tongue is with the protesters in charlottesville. and brian, what is the scene like there? >> ryan, we have been saying all day this is the crucial moment when the anti-racists protesters got to lafayette square part and how close to get to the white supremacist protesters and we can show you right now, a because the bulk of the anti-racist protesters are here, and you can get a perspective and our photo journalist harlan schmidt is going to give you that perspective. and harlan, point here across lafayette square a park and you can see the people beyond the police lines across there and under the trees, the handful of opeopl

search white house experience. right now it takes you on a virtual tour of the estate rooms of the house as well as the nonpublic historic rooms. eventually we want to teach the stories of what the white house was like a different times. also teach other aspects of the white house history. we would love watching by c- span and those here to download the app and explore the white house with us. we are grateful for all of you. you are on the tip of the spear in american history and presidential history and white house history. it's been inspirational to us this week to have you here and look forward to working with you moving forward. we don't want this to be a -- every four year or two year experience but want to do it all the time. we want to teach the next generation. thank you all very much. [ applause ] will be leading it in the fau future. thank you all very much. have a great afternoon. [ applause ]

[laughter] so part, of course, white equilibrium is you do not name whiteness, and you do not name white advantage. we're very ignorant. we're taught to be ignorant. remember, i get that you have opinions, and i get that you have life experiences, and i get that i don't know virtually anyone in this room, but i hope i've made my case. but you add the arrogance to that, and it's a bit of a deadly combination. right? and finally, entitlement to people of color's bodies. feeling really entitled to their labor, their emotion allay boar, their psychic -- emotional labor, their psychic labor, just reaching in and violating their space, right? a social worker who specializes in racial trauma talks about in particular black people only having dominion over their own bodies for just the last, say, 20 plus years. right? so in that a black -- so that a black man solemnly, respectfully and quietly going down on one knee causes us to erupt with umbrage. you will not control your own body. that's white fragility. when any of that is interrupted, all right, white fragility ensues. so i have never had t

i talked to some friends in the white house, they said they would love more diversity in the white house you have someone come out, defend the president or say they want to sit towdown with him, for examp kanye west, they're annihilated in the press. there's a trepidation there. if we could focus on the fact we would like to build on that, work on it together, i know the administration is open to that. >> so roughly a third, you're saying two-thirds are white men, one-third of diverse but counting women in there? not sure i understand. >> erin, if you look at the coms department, as far as my count, i did it cursory before the show, i think it depends department to department. i think the bottom line is the policy that comes out of this white house. 700,000 new jobs, record unemployment for all mienlnorit and women. you know the list and it is a good list. and there's more coming out. more on dodd-frank repeal. there's great news coming out about small business leaders, many of them are minorities, so there's a lot of good news, erin. >> angela? >> i think i got stuck at gina saying that

and you got a lot of white blood in you, too. >> some white blood.an-american. >> well that's where your intelligence is coming from, you think? >> you think it comes from my white side? >> i think so. >> unbelievable. but for those unenthused about casting their vote for him or for democratic incumbent daniel la pinsky, an independent candidate has emerged. justin hanson joins me now on set. justin, thanks so much for being here. let's start simply you launched your campaign in your backyard and you had an unwelcome visitor. >> we did, we had an unwelcome visitor at our family rally. it was a group of family friends getting together to get excited about this campaign and where we're going and art jones decided to show up to the campaign rally. >> so what ensued? he challenged you to a debate? >> he came to the -- i was given a heads up that he might be coming to confront me at the rally that was in my backyard and he challenged me on some -- the idea that he tricked voters into voting for him in the primary. i asked him to leave my home. he challeng

they're going to go from here down to the white house, across the white house in lafayette square. they're already on the march. our fphotojournalist is taking nice pan shot of them as they're on the move. i'm going to go down kind of the other way and come around as he's going to show the route they're taking. they're going over here to 14th street. they're going to turn right and go probably a total of about four blocks to lafayette square. now, in just a few minutes, ryan, this is going to be the real litmus test of how this day is going to unfold. how close are the police going to let these counterprotesters get to the white house supremacists? that is going to be key. the police have not given us any information as to how close they're going to let these people get, but they do say they will keep the two groups separate. the distance that they keep them apart is really going to be crucial. i've just talked to several protesters from different groups. i've asked them, you know, what is your intent? do you want to confront or do you want to shut down their message? just about al

white house. he was stationed in the white house under eisenhower and kennedy, doing transcriptions and speeches, and so has come to know them. in addition to covering the white house, he covered the iranian press hostage and many, many international stories. cochran worked for 21 years at nbc as a correspondent both in washington and overseas. he covered nixon, ford, carter, reagan, and the bush administrations. from 1978 to 1987, he was based in london and was the chief foreign correspondent for nbc. he returned to nbc's washington bureau and became chief white house correspondent under the presidency of george h.w. bush. cochran joined abc news in 1994 as chief capitol hill correspondent covering bob dole's unsuccessful bid for the president, and was senior white house correspondent in the final two years of the clinton administration. from 2001 until 2011, he was the network's senior washington correspondent and he retired at that time. i have to give a "roll tide" shout out. john cochran is a

he thinks he can unite white northerners with white southerners on race. saying, this is going to be a mongrel democracy, black rights, black supremacy. they mean inter-marriage, they mean social quality. would your daughter marry a black man? this is where it begins. those kinds of -- and he demeans himself and he's so crude that people in the crowd start shouting back at him. and he engages them. sometimes he's hooted out of town, literally. people don't want to hear him, because northern public opinion is not being swayed by him playing this race card. things that worked was just not working at this time. ryan? >> we can just swing around the circle, by the way, in case you're thinking -- he did a swing around the circle in the north, which was a complete disaster. yeah? >> so i'm hearing this and i'm thinking about what you said about stevens and all the other confederates entering congress. i'm thinking about sumner beating kaine a few years prior. was there any strong reaction by the republicans in congress, you know, against these confederates rejoi

tamara keith, white house correspondent for npr, and richard painter was chief white house ethics adviser for george w. bush. thank you for joining me. let's start with you. why now? what's specific about the potential departure of mcgahn that's got so many people worried, or is it just one more thing that's making them worried? >> ali, it's just one more thing that's making them worry. this fear has been building for a while now as it looks increasingly likely that democrats have a real possibility of taking over the majority of the house at a minimum in november's midterm elections. and people around the president, his allies, including some of his advisers inside the white house, are very concerned that could lead to a barrage of subpoenas, of investigations, of inquiries into ethical misconduct in the administration, into increase perhaps into the president's businesses, and most dangerously, into possible impeachment proceedings, depending, of course, on what sort of report special counsel robert mueller issues regarding obstruction of justice. and so there is concern that trump is n

he was going to keep the white house -- the trains in the white house running on time as they say. how would you characterize how general kelly has performed so far as chief of staff? >> i'd say to be fair i think mixed. i think general kelly did come in, as you noted. i think he did get some process in order. i think he's established good relations on the hill. but at the end of the day, the president sets the tone, craig, as andy so well knows. in this case i think the wind seems to be or the situation is let trump be trump. he's really pretty much following his schedule with general kelly now supporting that, but not in the way that it initially began his tenure as chief of staff. >> all right, gentlemen, thank you both. >> thank you very much. great to be with mack. thank you. >> same here. >> that was nice. we don't get a lot of that anymore. that's nice. a little civility on cable television. yeah. >>> a tv plant ready to layoff its workforce. more than 100 people. they say it's all because of the president's trade war with china. we are live at america's best state, my home

i happen to be white. that doesn't make me any better from an immigrant from what amol, india, vietnam. the important difference is not my skin color, that i arrived here with connections and resources. i have been given every opportunity to live the american dream. populace what that for all americans, wherever you came from and however long you have been here. the crucial word is americans. the incredible and unique thing about the countries that anyone can become an american. you can move to britain, but you'll never be british, not really. >> i can tell you that an immigrant to hungary will be spending a lifetime there never be hungarian. do you think they'll ever let you become chinese? but america's different. precisely because america is founded on an idea, one nation under god, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. not rooted in a racial or ethnic identity. america is always changing, but still's days the same. the land of the free and the home of the brave. if there comes a time when white

it is no longer navy grey, it is all white for the little white house.ould like to welcome you to the harry s truman little white house. it is florida's official presidential museum and has been used by seven american presidents. it is camp david south. the little white was built as the navy commander's home in 1890. it served a number of various commanders over almost a 100 year span, but it was slightly interrupted by presidents taft, franklin roosevelt, harry truman, dwight eisenhower, john kennedy, to bill clinton. -- jimmy carter and bill clinton. the department of defense says we seem to have a continuum through american history. this building was the largest building on the naval base. this was 9000 square feet. consequently it was built originally as the paymaster and commander's home, but by 1911 , the new base commander realized things were getting snug so he merged into a single it into a single dwelling of all most 9000 square feet. at that time, key west was the command headquarters for the seventh averill district which -- seventh naval dis

the white house, you could walk right into the white house. time, you could just walk in. and look around the rooms on the first level at your leisure. hoover, ihrough think, on new year's day, anyone could walk in and shake the president's and. -- hand. the book starts out where i'm sitting on a bench in lafayette ukeare where bernard bernar used to sit. he was an advisor from presidents wilson to truman. he would have this bench near the jackson statue. anybody who wanted to come talk to him could sit on this bench. he called it his bench of inspiration. the book starts with a picture of him and the natchez and sitting there -- dean attkisson sitting there. the entourage would be incredible now. what worries me is more and more , for some reason, i don't know why security closes the entire park. ist a couple of weeks ago, was going to walk through it and there were people there with full, big, big rifles. the type we used to see when we thought terrorists were going to take over the capital building. as more crazies leap over the fence, they've had to push it back. i do

white nationalists across from the white house but far outnumbered by counterprotesters. >>> an explosive allegation from a former white house aide. omarosa manigault newman says she heard a recording of president trump using the "n" word. >> you have heard the tape? >> i have heard the tape. >> since the publication of the book. >> absolutely. >> and she shares a recording she says she secretly made on the day she was fired. >>> and baltimore police officer suspended after a video shows him beating a man this weekend. >>> nasa going where no space ship has gone before, blasting off on a mission to the sun. >>> and the new movie that is bringing more diversity to hollywood. we'll hear from the stars of "crazy rich asians." >> announcer: this is "nbc nightly news" with kate snow. >> good evening. exactly one year after demonstrations in charlottesville, virginia, turned deadly, a small group of white nationalists showed up for a planned protest near the white house. but their presence was overshadowed by a larger group of counter protesters. security tight as law enforcement did all they c

. >>> white lives matter, white lives matter. >> the war on whites is real. >> normalized. >> the government is nothing compared to the jewish menace. >> and destroying lives. >> there are people who will say, once a nazi, always a nazi and that you cannot change who you are. >> but i know change is possible. from the age of 14-22, i helped build america's first neo-nazi skin-head organization. i believed diversity was a coder word for white genocide. immigrants were raping our women, and i was going to save the world, recruiting vulnerable kids and transforming them into violent extremists like me. but now, instead of pulling people in to hate, i'm guiding them out. >> that's a pretty scary thing. >> i know how easy it is to get sucked in to the movement. >> i hated people messing with me. before i was just -- i was just gabe, and now i'm gabe the skin head, and everyone respects me and fears me. it happened to me and i'm not willing to let it happen to anyone else. >>> first thing i like to say about the american flag, i don't salute the american flag, two of the states stands for nonwhite

i want him to bring integrity back to the white house. i want him to stop doing the things that he's doing and working in conjunction with republicans in congress to suppress the vote. i want him to make sure that health care is provided to our citizens, and i want him to get his administration straight because as far as i can see, it seems like there is -- they don't seem to know what they're doing, particularly when we look at what's happening with these immigrant children. >> so i want to ask you about these allegations from omarosa, but before i get you on that, l us just after she left the white house in december. >> do you think this president is racist? >> absolutely not. i would never sit nor work for . i don't know omarosa, but i can only judge from what i've seen. you know, when people go around asking is somebody a racist, you know what happens? once i say that and if i were to say that, that would be the headline and nobody would ever get the message. what i'm saying to you and the message that i want to get through is that th

whether you call it white supremacy or white nationalism. what they are trying to arrive at is the white race and every other race subjugated therefore. that is their ultimate goal based on the things they were saying. so, again, we are just about, what, about quarter of a mile away from the white house as we make our way to lafayette square. what you're seeing over here, though, is really just an overwhelming show of police presence. this is a coordinated law enforcement effort. you've got d.c. police. that's who you see in these neon vests. you've also got secret service. national park police. you've also got a network of private security here, too, trying to keep people safe. the goal, the washington, d.c., police chief says is to keep protesters and counter protesters separate. it's also to make sure that bystanders are kept safe. i'll also tell you that as we were standing at that metro station waiting for these white nationalists to get off the train, we saw families, relying people, who had no idea what was happening today. and they j

it is a sign of just how white that white house is.t and whether or not that matters, next. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis, little things can be a big deal. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats differently. for psoriasis, 75% clearer skin is achievable, with reduced redness, thickness, and scaliness of plaques. and for psoriatic arthritis, otezla is proven to reduce joint swelling, tenderness, and pain. and the otezla prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. otezla may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. tell your doctor if these occur. otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. other side effects include upper respiratory tract infection a

in the white house. and we grew muslim or a time as. gay rhetoric is really the same talking points that groups like the ku klux klan and the national socialist movement have been using for years so as much as he may say all the wise the policies that he. would should include atrocious things like deporting ten year old girls in the hospital who are there for surgery back to mexico that's the kind of stuff it's a promise like to see. think that they really believe they have an ally in the why those but it so do you think trump has a thing for those kind of groups i mean he refused to specifically shame they white supremacists for the violence in charlottesville where an anti rastus protester was killed media that asked trump supporting the far right do you see that way as well . or is a lot of file facts just say that while adjusting for one president drones actions he is very quick to condemn football players for peacefully protesting and he calls them sons of bitches and says they should be fired like

the washington post reporting from inside the white house is based on interviews with 26 white house officials, presidential advisers and lawyers and strategists close to the administration, most of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to be candid. now let's just remember that john kelly was brought in to be the white house chief of staff who would stop the leaking and tonight we have 26 leakers. 26 in trump world who are talking to the washington post about impeachment. rudy giuliani told the washington post and allowed them to use his name on this quote, we have talked a lot about impeachment at different times. because this is the trump white house, the impeachment discussion is not happening in a rational and professional way. of course it isn't. the post reports, quote, although trump sometimes talks about impeachment with his advisers, in other moments he gets mad that the i-word as he calls it is raised. according to his associates. according to his leakers. no one in the trump white house believes that they have the right lawyers to handle an impeachment defense. the whi

it was in a book, history of the white house. this is the interior of the white house in 1950.the problem was the white house had been so badly abused that it was falling apart. it was dangerously falling apart. margaret truman's piano was falling through from the second floor to the first floor. they moved them across the street to the truman house. this idea of a bulldozer, front end loader in the middle of the white house just fascinated me. i am weird that way. we also have to go back to 1898, the united states in the spanish-american war acquired puerto rico. and they were never quite sure what to do with it. they didn't want to give it its independence, but they didn't want to be seen as some sort of colonial empire. so, they gave the puerto ricans american citizenship in 1917. in 1950, they were all set to create the commonwealth that we have now. there was a separatist, nationalist group that didn't want this to happen. they thought they could rise up, throw out the americans, and return puerto rico to some kind of ideal lease in the caribbean, which it probably never w

. >> this was a white lash. this was a white lash against a changing country. it was a white lash against a black president, in part. and that's the part where the pain comes. >> dramatic words, indeed. a year before he was killed, martin luther king junior worried that the vast majority of white americans are racist, either consciously or unconsciously. my two guests tonight are well placed to discuss all of this. william juwondo who workedn the obama white house on the initiative called my brother's keeper, designed to help young black men climb up the ladder of life. and he is now running for local office in his home state maryland. and also brie newsome. she removed the confederate flag from the grounds of the south carolina state house. she's a civil rights activist and she's with us from memphis where she's been attending the commemoration for dr. king. welcome both of you to the program on this 50th anniversary, which is actually a sad day. can i ask you, brie, what it means to you to be a black american today? you heard us quote what dr. king said a yea

he's our link to an unconventional white house. he's the person that helps get these judges through on all levels of the federal court. there's an inclination to have him stay. it's been something that's lingering over this white house. >> emmett flood who you reported as a possible replacement. the top line of the biois that he was a lawyer during clinton's impeachment. a lot of people wondering what that signals. >> the white house is preparing for the democrats to possibly take over the house. they hope that doesn't happen, but you have to prepare. my sources tell me that flood is a white shoe lawyer will be ready. will be able to mount a defense of the presidency. trying to mount a defense for the president should that scenario happen. he has built a rapport with the president. it's not clear an offer has been made yet. mcgahn brought him in, a lot of people don't want to come into this white house as lawyers. flood was convinced maybe he could be white house counsel. >> the circumstances around the special council are complica

people and saying nasty things about white men and white women.her remarks she doesn't think all white people are what she describes. and so there is a certain element of attempting to be humorous, but not actually succeeding. however, if you look at her tweets, and if you actually do look at the context, the context is that she is purposely saying racist things against white people for what she believes is great effect. >> okay. i'm not -- again, i'm not sure. so how do you separate -- >> what i would say about what symone just said, i think there is a great deal that is sad here. what it reflects is what is really said about identity politics in america in general is that race is your defining characteristic. and if you are somebody who is not white you get to say all kinds of vile things about white people. and there's no consequence. and i think what is sad here is that here is a young woman who is obviously very smart, smart enough to get into harvard, and yet she spends all her time saying all these nasty things about white people, as she kn
