Let me make this as clear as i canhi make it tonight. It is open season on the citizens of chicago and the mayor cannot be bothered to accept real federal help. Do you know why . Because of her seething hatred for donald trump. That is outweighing her concern for the citizens that she is supposed to be serving. The head of the chicago fraternal order of police was here tonight to react to mayor Lori Lightfoots refusal to accept federal help but will instead react to this story. John kennedy sarah joins me now exclusively john, are you as unhinged as mayor lightfoot says you are . Shes putting it on you. Thats what shes doing, putting it on you. Maybe it is fox, trump, everyone but looking at the mayor and going after the criminals. Thank you for having me. First of all, the mayor likes to use the word unhinged. The ironic part is the mayor became unhinged. I wish i could show you the Text Messages you sent me over the weekend as soonest shes the one who became totally unhinged, unprofessional, childish, and it was pathetic for a leader of the city. Laura right now we have carnage as far as the eye can see. We dont know what will happen, we hope we dont have deaths out of these injuries. But it looked the wild out there in the feed they were showing. This was outside of a funeral home. If you are going to shoot outside of a funeral home where there was some signage about the funeral, apparently there was some Police Presence somewhere on the scene, youve got really bold. Havent you, john . Youre pretty bald at that point as a criminal. You arent worried. As seans guest said, they are bold because they know there is no consequences. The Justice System in cook county is totally broken, to tom dart the sheriff, to chief evans, the chief judge. They have no idea what real justice is pure the bloodbath in the streets are a result. Laura Lori Lightfoot, to bring people in this back and forth, to putbr it politely, jo, between you and lightfoot, this is what she said. Everyone watch. Weve got an unhinged leadr of the fraternal order of police who is craven in trying to generate attention. G this is a dangerous road for us to go down. We are not going to have people who dont know our streets engaging in clearly unconstitutional conduct, operating at well in our cities. That is chaos. That is lawlessness. Laura that is chaos, what we are seeing tonight wasnt chaos . But you are wanting federal help . This woman doesnt know her own city, okay . Its a travesty. I thought i was mad about other things tonight given whats going on in this country, but this is an outrage create a Great American city being disturbed by her. She is a radical and they need to toss her out of office. John, go ahead. Shes running the titanicun into an iceberg intentionally. 56 rounds fired, im told, and 15 people shot tonight, where there was police, special attention because of the gang victim that was already being waked at the funeral home. The irony of her not knowing the streets and the federal officers, thats not a knock on superintendent brown because i really likee superintendent bron but she hired an outsider who didnt know the streets. Whats the difference . Shes a big hypocrite, she has a bit of a napoleon complex. If you dont agree with her, heaven forbid. Laura funeral attendees, i understand, returned fire on the vehicle. These were all gang bangers, right . To sum it up for us. Its a conjecture, but people are firing on each other. We could call it the wild west. This is a killing field in chicago. We are complaining about trump . Talk about blame shifting. Putting it on you and the fraternal order of police, the cops on the beach . What the heck are the cops supposed to do when they have no support from city hall . You highlighted the obvious increase in shootings and murders, but superintendent brown said basically yesterday that the Police Department has recovered 5400 guns so far this year off the streets of chicago. As you properly highlighted, that is 5400 deadly encounters that the men and women of the Police Department had dealt with over the First Six Months of this year and not a Single Person i shouldnt say not a Single Person, i think there have only been three shootings that resulted in deaths, but my point is how many more guns, more murdersow would occur if guns werent taken off there street . More importantly, there is a lot of people arrested with those guns that were immediately let back out on the street again and it goes right back to kim foxx and the broken county jail system. Laura this is the revolving door of socalled criminal justice reform. Someone arrested on a monday. Released on tuesday morning. They get their criminal defender, their public defender. And we are crying about how unfair the system is. Sy everyone just joining us tonight, there was a disturbing scene in chicago a few hours ago at a funeral where we had 14 people shot. Many inpe the hospital. People returning fire from the funeral to the cars that were going off in different directions, apparently responsible forff the shooting, coming from multiple directions. The reports we are gettinge tonight, john. At the same time as this is happening tonight, we have under lawlessness in another Great American city of portland, oregon. And we have people in portland, oregon, telling the media not to cover it. Because that tells a very distorted story and people are covering it because they want to hurt people politically no, we want to cover it because we want to save lives, properties, livelihood. What would happen if aoc and they can get their way with biden and the whole crowd and defund the police. John, is tonights scene going to be repeated across urban america . I dont know about urban america but chicago is unique to anywhere in the country. Iut said time and time again, new york is two and a half size population wise of chicago but we have 30 more murders. Let that sink t in. There is a lawless mine this do whatever you want because is number precaution, accountability. There was a large group of officers trying to protect a Christopher Columbus statue being attempted to be pulled down, 52 officers were injured in that melee and they want to pretend that this was a handful of anarchists that embedded themselves in this protest. The protesters knew that this was going to happen. They protected these people until they were done and we talk about accountability up until this point. Us accountability, they cried that Police Officers dont speak out, the thin blue line, they protect bad behaviors but what about the good protesters who stood there and watch the anarchists hurl fireworks, frozen water, bricksr and did nothing . Laura im tired of the line that all the good protesters you shouldnt be out throwing stuff at police or standing by other people who are throwing stuff atyo police, oka . You shouldnt be pulling down statues bear they arent your property. If you want to take down a statue, go the legal day and petition your local alderman and do it that way. O dont pull ropes around statues and pulled him down for that selfish behavior and we are tolerating it in chicago and all across this its the broken windows theory, broken statues theory. We have to bring in sara carter, fox news contributor,av host of the sara carter podcast, and raheem for the media telling us notto coves where we have blood in the streets, now blood outside a funeral home when this memorial was going down. Why are they telling us not to cover this. They are telling us not to cover this because they want to affect the november elections for they dont care about the people in the city of chicago, the children who have lost their lives there since the beginning of the year, neither does the mayor mayor Lori Lightfoot. Ive got to tell you, laura, im because i think of all the children across this country that have been so badly affected this year, not only with the violence in the streets but with covid, not being able to go to school, and that we have a bunch of adults who act like children and put our childrens lives in danger because they are political and they are divisive. What we are seeing across the country is something that i believe could get far worse if something doesnt happen, if something doesnt stop this. This escalation of violence. I talked to Law Enforcement officials today. Many have told me, look, if we dont get the kind of backup support we need, a lot of people are just walking off jobs, they are retiring, they are going to leave Law Enforcement. What happens to the citizens when that happens, laura . Laura i would say that, raheem, theres a debate going on in chicago whether to open the schools up. Im starting to read stuff off my phone, stuff is happening, a slight majority of public schooi parents want schools to reopen in some form a poll finds. What if you mix School Closures with the defund the police movement, everything you are singling down in the streets, now a bunch of kids have nowhere to go. How do you write that little road map in the fall, raheem . Its going to lead to carnage. In his inauguration, talk about how the carnage is stopping and it needed to stop, looks like his Democrat Friends in the media actually use that and carnage sounds like a great idea and here we are as a result of it all. It boggles the mind how the president really stepped up to the plate here. Law and order is actually happening for and its not a phrase on twitter going on in o the streets, is going on in oregon, its going to be going on in chicago, and meanwhile we are being told, we dont want that. These democrat mayors, these people are treating these bodies that we are seeing in these people who are wounded that we are seeing as statistics. I can hear it in your voice, i can hear it in your other anchors voices in this network. If you are talking about people affected, you care about the communities, their lives. These democrat mayors, they are just statistics. Whats another 510 people shot if it means we dont have to accept Donald Trumps assistance to get law and order in the streets. There is a three track path for this president to get elected. Its law and order in the streets, confronting the chinese, and his party, and its commanding the pandemic. Hes doing all these things. Laura this is what Lori Lightfoot said today in a presser, watch. We understand that additional values down resources can be a value add. It cant be a value add if they are nameless agents being pulled pulling people off the streets depriving them of their constitutional rights. Thats not what a democracy looks like. S we are not going to have that in the city of chicago. Laura always Community Organizing there, sara. Is she talking about federal patrols bowling down in black cars, nefarious description of Law Enforcement. Meanwhile we had a black suv pull up with multiple people inside and shoot up this funeral. We had 60 shell casings found on the ground outside this funeral home. But the Nefarious Police she will accept some federal presence, but clearly not enou enough. She is absolutely right, laura. Shes an absolute propagandist, laura. These Law Enforcement officials, Everybody Knows who they are, they are federal Law Enforcement officials there to protect the community. There are thugs on the streets. How about the children have to walk on the streets, how about the innocent women, and children, and men who walk in the streets in these communities that are run by gang members . What aboutes the drugs being sod on the streets . How many more children do we have to lose, how many more peoples lives have to be taken before people in our country particularly in these major urban cities wake up and do something about it . President trump is doing the right thing. He is speaking about law and order and law and order is necessary for our society to move forward. We cant do that if our children are dying in the streets. We just cant do that. We cant afford it in this country. Laura and raheem, i think of all the difficulty weve had since george floyd and that horrific death of his at the hands of a police officer. Everything that the country has endured and gone through, and i think of the people hurt most in chicago by this crime. We did two crime town halls focusing on this horrific crime for the people who care about the community. Faith leaders, moms, its heartbreaking. I bawled. It was so heartbreaking. This is more of that. These are real lives, real people, this city is a greats city. But you cant have a mayor who comes out and says we dont want a dictatorship, as she said, when shes accepting some federal help. We dont want a dictatorship like portland, what you do inou portland. Thats not helping race relations. No. No, laura. I would be really keen to look at an organizer of black lives matter in the eyes and asked, have things improved since your Marxist Organization used George Floyds name to bring carnage to the streets of the United States . Iag have the last country i lived in was the night he kicked them in the last city i lived in was london and city con was the mayor of london. When i first came, i said to myself, well, thank goodness im in america. Saddiq khans cant come to america. Lori lightfoot, bringing saddiq khan to america. O if the president keeps a handle to it, hes assured a victory in november. Joe biden on any of the stuff, hes certainly not in control of his own party, i remember when they were campaigning on please dont make me vote for joe biden on the political left and those are the tiktoks, its a mess. Its a total mess. Laura sara, when we see the Political Landscape as its unfolding this election season, covid is dominating the minds of so many people, thankfully increasingly lower mortality rate, the more people we test, i think people have got to look at what they are seeing in new york, in chicago, in portland, in seattle, and say is this that is all blue leadership. Thats all democrat leadership. They refused to enforce law. They refused to do it, and theyf demonize the very people who are putting their lives on the line. Not making a ton of money, by the way, putting their lives on the line and getting junk thrown at them and celebrated, the left being celebrated by some of these political leaders. Thisal is a moment for everyoneo think long and hard about what kind america they want. This cant be it. Thats exactly right, laura. People have tos decide to come november what do they want, do you want to see the country fall apart the way we are seeing it fallhe apart in these cities because its literally falling apart. The people who are paying for it are the people in those communities, the children of the communities, and we say this over and over again, when biden comes in, raheem is right. If biden was president , look who would be behind him. He would be a puppet and they would eat him up. They would move in. Im talking about people like Alexandra Clint fazio alexandria caritas io cortez, ellen al these radical ideologists who pushed marxism and socialism. We have to ask ourselves when it stops, that requires the American Public, laura, the stop being silent. For those of you afraid out there to speak up and say no more, this is not going to happen in our communities. We can have a normal discussion but we cant allow people to take over communities and destroy them. Laura just let them have free reign. Let them be for a while. Just let them be. I want to bring you back in, i sett it at the top, i want peope to look at the chicago crime stats. Murders of 51 since last year, shootings up 47 , and our the move to obscure this, to keep it concealed, to downplay it, to even dismiss it is shocking and it is certainly not doing any good for the most underprivileged people in our society who are always the ones who suffer the most. Not the people behind the gates or the people with private security. Those people are always fine. Its the working people and thee poor people who suffer from high crime. John, thoughts . Some of these neighborhoods ive said they are basically hostage. They cannot leave their house. Literally until the Early Morning hours when the criminals are finally going to bed. Time and time again many of the citizens come out of their houses and thank the police once they finally clear a block because they havent been able to leave their house all day. A lot of them have been forced to live in these conditions for generation after generation. It is not the police who created these problems, its theob politicians, they need to Start Holding these politicians accountable and im appealing to every h voter in cook county, illinois, right now. You have apo chance this novembr to take kim foxx out of office and do something worthwhile. She needs to go. If we are going to get this city back away from the iceberg that the mayor has set it on a course with, that is your chance come november. Laura people have to get involved in their local elections whether it is School Boards that are closing these schools, john, and thats going to be chaos. T more shutdowns that are going to leave people hopeless and without anywhere to go during the day. We had a story you know laura go ahead. The ironic part isni you talk about the schools. The Teachers Unions, one of the biggest, loudest mounts against the police. You say theres a lot of Great Teachers in chicago, but the ctu, the Teachers Union in particular, outspoken critic and railed against Police Misconduct okay, fine. Theyve had their own sex abuse scandal for the better part of the last ten years that nobody ever talks about. Police get fired and about a 101 ratio compared to teachers who outnumber the police 41, like they dont have any bad teachers. They defend them through and through. Its all misdirection in this city. Everybody doesan this, look the other way, they never point at themselves because they dont heke what they see and they dont want everyone else to see what they see either. Its disgusting. Laura tonight in the Washington Post, there is a piece, d john, in oklahoma a very dark feeling my hundreds camped out in oklahoma, unemployment lines. We tried to warn them what would happen if they did the roman shutdowns and we let a virus confine us or define us. We talked about increases in crime, we talked about increases in despair and loneliness, drug abuse, and sadly, i hate to say, we were right. Locking down people, shutting down businesses, how is that going to affect us as this pandemic continues to dominate headlines, despite the decline in mortality . Its kind of ironic in a sad way, the numbers of Violent Crime in the city of chicago is going up during the stay at home order that the mayor and the governor of illinois, governor pritzker, put in with an iron fist exceeding their Authority Time and time again. Clearly the criminals didnt get theim message. Its all a designed effort to badmouth the police in order to try to get licensing passed in illinois to circumvent our collective bargaining rights. Shes willing to get the blood of children to achieve her goal. Sad but true. Laura illinois governor j. B. Pritzker rips trumps plans to send Homeland Security to try and help the city of chicago. That is jbs answer after he sent his family to hang out in a very safe florida during the pandemic, okay . His family was fine. It was rules for thee, but not for me a pair whether a republican doing it, a democrat doing it, i dont care. People are hurting. You cannot take away their schools, their sports, their livelihood, and expect them to sit inside and wait for the government to rescue them, its not going to work. Its a disaster. These lockdowns have killed more people i think we are going to find out when this is all over, these lockdowns have been and deleterious ports on American Society across the board, and they are just a going if mayor lightfoot could lock down the town, she would do it. We are going backwards. We are reverting. Again, its mindboggling how in over her head she is. Maybe its got something to do with how short she is, but shes not cut out for this job. She is proving very wanting in the task and unfortunately we are stuck with her for another two and a half years. Laura i dont know about your city laws, if there is a recall petition, but the people are going to have to take the government back. John, stay with us. We are pleased now to be joined by pastor cory brooks of the new Beginnings Church in chicago. For those of you who remember pastor brooks, he hosted the ingraham angle at his church last september when we thought at the time the highlight in finding resolutions to the violence problem in chicago. Pastor brooks, im sorry to have to talk to you at a night like tonight, but your message emma given what youve seen happened, both night and over the last several weeks . Unfortunately i just left a crime scene were at least about 17 people have been shot in our city. Its really bad now with all the shootings, all the young people being shot, especially all the children being shot. If we dont get a hold of the situation real soon, im sorry, but we are going to be in for a long, tough summer. Laura you heard the fraternal order of police. The chief just said that the lockdowns have coincided with a huge spike in crime. Now the city is going backward. I know you see it with your own congregation, pastor. Pastor brooks, very hard for churches in these lockdowns as well. How do you expect that to affect this situation on the ground as you see it . There are a lot of churches that are in real bad situations along with our communities in a bad situation. The Economic Situation for a lot of laura i think we might have just lost the pastor. Lets see if we get him back in a moment. My guys will tell us if we get them back in a moment. John, the pastor who left the crime scene, there is a discrepancy whether its 14 or 17. Regardless, its a mass shooting. It was broad daylight, it was still light when it occurred. 60 casings found on the ground that whens the last time you remember 60 casings being found on the ground, john . Is shooting at a park about five years ago when it was 13 people shot laura it was 2013, i believe. Not to one up you in the crime statistics. I believe that was 2013 if my memory serves me right. Its not funny but its macabre humor. You gett desensitized to it. Mo again, think of the trauma as the t responding officers, how many times we see this on a daily basis in and out, in and out, and the trauma that occurs that we hold, in. We can obviously have sympathy for the victims and we should, but dont forget the Police Officers who deal with this kind of trauma in these certain locations in a daily basis, on a yearly basis. It takes a toll over time, it really does. Its the reason whyy alcoholism is so prevalent in the police profession. Laura alcoholism, drug abuse getting worse in these lockdowns. John, rahim, sara, thanks for being with us. Well bring you any new information, news conferences as they do come. But up next, the president resumest his p26 press conferences. Alex berenson, phil cresson, going to tell us the real numbers we need to examine behind the rear openings. Dont go away. Announcer supermodel Cindy Crawford doesnt just walk the red carpet.

Com right now laura you could feel it, right . We are feeling towards new threats of a shutdown not nationwide. Its instructive to check in on sweden. Thistr was the prevailing narrative on its less restrictive approach. Sweden is a big problem in terms of its death rate and its economy. Its a red spot now on the map of europe. A lot see whats happening in sweden as a bit of a caution to those pushing to ease restrictions. What might have happened if we never shut down businesses or schools, let life go on as normal . They did that can sweden and they now believe the experiment failed. Laura such bad reporting. First, a look at deaths by day in sweden, there is no relationship between the peak in cases and the peak in deaths. Third, death by age. Nearly all deaths were over 70. Most were over 80. Its insane everywhere. Critics will say there is nothing to learn from sweden. F they had all those deaths in the Old Folks Home as well. Denmark did better per 100,000. Whats your response . Thats absurd. Sweden is a major country thataj pursued a different strategy and if you look that the ones staying down that mistake they made was that it and protect Nursing Homes aggressively enough. There was a wall street journal article in june that said they allowed older people to die rather than getting them in icus. That was a big mistake on their part. The overall picture in sweden, theyve had fewer deaths and compact incappadocia than the u. K. , spa. Without major shutdowns. And there is reason to believe if youo look at the more recent data that they will talk about herd immunity, they dont like to use that term, but they may have actually gotten there or close to there, because deaths and icu admissions are low this month. It is hard to explain why that is, considering that they are seeing cases, the virus has actually burned its way through the most vulnerable segments of the population. It is still too early to tell that they definitely have gotten through this, but the signs are positive for them. Laura speaking of what sweden didnt do which is to close all schools, the Washington Post is reporting tonight that the superintendents in fairfax county, loudoun county, and Montgomery County all surrounding washington, d. C. , are calling for all virtual classes to start the school year, scrapping earlier plans we reported on to do partial online, partial in school. What are these School Districts putting ahead of the kids and their wellbeing here . This is 100 pure negative partisanship. This is politics. This is because President Trump said to open the schools. Theyt are sector biasing the education of to check up on badly needed classroom instruction. Zero health rationale out of this. A study came out of u. K. Today said that there is not a single confirmed case in the entire world of a student infecting a teacher. Not one confirmed in thetu entie world. We know that students are at a far lower health risk, children are at a far lower health risk with covid than they are seasonal flu every single year. If this were about health, logically they could never open again for thiss is not based on health, this is based on politics. Laura this is political, this is going to devastate american families. And it is being done to set up this election, is it not . This is disgusting. The superintendent at fairfax should be disgusted in itself. Its disgusting and its happening all over the country. To go back to sweden, its interesting. Sweden and finland did a study comparing the two countries schools because schools in finland closed for two months, schools in sweden never called dell my clothes. They found that rates of death from 119 where the same both countries. No children died in either country. You hear teachers complaining, i am at risk, i am at risk. In fact, rates of infection among teachers in sweden were lower than the overall population because children dont spread this i know, its hard to believe. Schools are actually a safer place for those teachers to go than walmart or wherever they would be hanging out if schools were not in session. Laura yeah, the cdc said today that you are more likely to get sick from being at home then you are from outside contact. That is a vaunted cdc, phil. You said you caught the New York Times lying about a korean study on viral loads in children . A report warns that total reopenings are going to trigger more outbreaks because older children spread covid just as much as adults, phil. What did the New York Times get wrong about eight of the medic kids . A lie. You actually look at the paper, they said that older kids are bigger spreaders than adults and randy weingart already using to you look at the actual study found that 97 of the time it is an o adult that brings the infection into the home, over 97 of the time. They found that 2 of the time its a child who did it but that doesnt tell the whole story because alastair munro, the number one pediatric covid researcher in the world says he saw the korean data set, korean adults share the initial exposure, exposed at the same time the child was so you dont know which child brought into the home, that 2 . Doesnt in any way justify what the cdc is using a four. Laura is this a form of child abuse . This is like child abuse. Locking up kids, telling them theyll go die if they got in play, its the most disgusting part of this whole disgusting thing. Le parents are starting to get furious about it. To be when they better. They better get loud and put their views of President Trump in thevi backseat realizing the only one fighting for you and your families about this. Thank you so much. It isnt just the the war onstudents is escalatinn california. Our next guest is taking on Governor Newsom over plans to keep the vast of schools closed through the fall. Today she filed a law lawsuit. Joining me now is harmeet dhillon, founder of the center of american liberty which raises money to file these lawsuits, the center for american liberty. Harmeet, tell me about this suit that you just filed in laymans terms. Sure. The california constitution, the United States constitutionti guarantees students and education and they guarantee equal protection and that students will not be discriminated against on the basis of their race or disability. But Governor Newsom shut down 80 of the schools in california, private and public, does all of those things but it denies education by forcing the Distance Learning on kids, the learning occurring for specialneeds children, its called disproportionately on minority and low income families and singleparent families, and it basically gives up on the l education of children in california who are already betrayed during the Spring Semester by the fake Distance Learning. As your prior panel pointed out, this is totally scientificall nt scientifically based, its driven by the Teachers Union and this is all about terrorizings the populace. As you said, laura, parents are beginning to get wise on this and its across the political spectrum. Parents all across every walk of life and every type of politics upset about how this is destroying their familys peace of mind, economic, moms having to give up their job, and children who are good children in school are withdrawing to my getting depressed, there is an increase in suicide and all of these things. Its a betrayal, an economy that spends 100 billion in california on education and this is whatpe c they are doing, phog it in. Its unacceptable, laura. We have to make sure the governor doesnt get away with it. Laura you are fighting this. Harmeet and her organization are fighting this. Parents in california, i dont know if you are tuning in for the first time, you must get involved or you are going to lose precious time with your kids. And, harmeet, im a mom with three kids. Im blessed. T i have resources. But i am thinking of those who do not. Even if you do have resources, its difficult. So those parents are the ones who are going to be hurt the most with the at risk kids in difficult situations. I hope they are seeing who is doing this to them. Its not the republicans print these are the Democrats Holding kids hostage to try to get rid of trump. Is that an overstatement . Thats what i think is going on here. Not at all. The nonsense i had a press Conference Today and liberal reporters asking me, do you want the teacher is to die question mike i do not want the teachers to die and neither they are going to die, literally read aer book once in a while, there is no support for that. For people who are scared, vulnerable, we have options for those people. This is the country that put the man on the moon and we can solve thisn problem, laura. We must. We cant just punted this. Laura kids used as political pawns. Its sickening pure harmeet, thank you, and thank you for the center for american liberty. Everything youre doing, raising money to do it, by the way. Under josh hawley fired a shot across the bo. The great Jason Whitlock is here on why the senator has them in a bind. Laura missouri senator josh hawley continues to give the nba headaches over their loyalty to the Chinese Communist party. Y. After introducing a new bill yesterday taking aim at corporations that include slave labor in their supply chain, he added this challenge to the nba and nike today, saying, or Corporate America and the celebs that hock their products have been playing this game for a long time. Talks up Corporate Social Responsibility and social justice at home while making millions of dollars for the slave labor that assembled the products arehe all just to savea few bucks. Joining me now is Jason Whitlock, partner and calmness at the great outkick. Com. These critiques of nike and the nba, they have struck a chord. Why is that . I think its an easy way to give the typical American Sports fan, which is a massive audience, to understand some of the larger issues going on in American Society. And so when you look at a lot of resistance to President Trump and his America First agenda, you can see it right there in the nba and with nike. They have so much interest in the market in china that they put their goals and agenda of china and ahead of the american agenda and thats why its so easy for them to sit on their thrones, smear america, while overlooking the fact that asian slave labor and the communist china party that runs china are using a lebron james, a colin kaepernick, and nike to smear america. This is what communist countries haveom done to the west for eve. They smear us with the race card when america is the worldwide leader when it comes to dealing with race. We deal with it more effectively than any other country in theth history of the world and we certainly deal with the a lot better than china. Laura jason, i want to put those numbers in context. The league may extend an estimated half a billion dollars per year from china which is at least 10 of its revenue, and estimates say that contribution could reach 20 in the next ten years if the audience there grows. Money talks. We talk a big game about what we are going to put on the back of our jerseys, but you think about who is ditching that jersey, what kind of life they would want to live if they want freedom. I think this is an easy way for americans tous understand se of the larger cultural issues we are dealing with here in america. The influence of Foreign Countries is so strong in america that our sports leagues are bending, the nba that has a global agenda, that was david sterns vision, we are going to make nba strong across the globe, the nba is not concerned with its american audience. I dont think they really care. I think that the 20 revenue goal i think is very conservative. Laura i was going to say. I think their goal, to get a Television Contract angina that dwarfs anything they are getting paid here in america, has been the real agenda, and thats why they keep scolding america and smearing america. Its very hypocritical. Im glad senator hawley is pointing it out. We need this conversation on a large stage and we need the American Public to understand. Laura maybe its time for them to stay out of politics if they are going to have such an obvious double standard that so easy to point out. Jason, i want to give you the story because weve been covering the sharp turn that espn and other sports media have taken in their coverage of late. Today the wall street journal is reporting that espn anchor stage sage steele says she believes that she was excluded from a special on race that aired last month because she wasnt considered by certain black colleagues to be an authentic voice for the black community. As the daughter of an army colonel, i know she has spoken out against kneeling for the anthem. So do you imagine it is rooted in that sentiment . There is no question about it. Stage sage steele is plenty blad this conversation about being black enough as a joke sages the issue is she doesnt have the right message and the message that espn wants and its black employees want and its onesided. You can only have one black point of view. Its really unfair for black people to have these type of limits on themselves in terms of opening our mind to different ways of viewing the world. Its hard if as a black person and the thing i keep trying to explain in a lot of my columns on out kick are, hey, are we evaluating things through our religious faith . Many of us raised christian. Are we abandoning our christian beliefs in order to be a slave to a political point of view that is inconsistent with our christian value . I dont know sage steele all that well. We are friendly but i dont know her that well. What i do know about her, i think she has some religious faith and she stays consistent with those values to somehow have that defined as not black enough is really frightening for africanamericans.
