We tweet us what you think. Well share your thoughts coming up a little later. Also in news this morning tracking metro this morning. All week long weve been following reports rumored sick out by workers today. So will there be a sick out by metro workers . Thats the big question much thats where monitoring after a week of back and forth claims by the union and metro management. Fox5s annie yu is following this story for us much shes live at metro center with the latest in this story. Annie . Reporter good morning, wisdom. Yeah, wm a. T just tweeted not too long ago that all of its metro rail and buses are running on time, and riders here at metro center as well as across the d. C. Region say, hey, so far so good. Things are running smoothly. But, of course, that could change but, again, rmat rea reassuring us right now things running on time. Now this threat of a possible sick out its been lingering for days now as you mentioned and heres the deal. Metro and its Largest Workers Union they are currently locked in very contentious contract dispute and the workers are upset about these changes in policy and the hard line approach by management. So yesterday we have video where things got it will ugly during a board of metro workers they staged a protest there. They also dropped a stack of petitions protest petitions in their, n front of metros gm as they turned their backs and they chanted you can hear them screaming there who moves this city, we move this city. They then joined hands outside metro headquarters and formed a human chain. Workers are challenging specifically this new absenteeism policy which is the root of this possible sick out. Now this rule requires workers to file absence requests three days in advance for things lke calling out sick, doctors appointments, and in an evident to get them excused metro says this policy is the purpose of this policy is to aim on cracking down on excessive absenteeism and the Transit Agency told us earl on this week around wednesday that nearly 500 of its bus and rail employees applied for this absence they denied all 500. And wall wiedefeld said he wasnt going to be taking any chances he came up way plan and he said he asked supervisors to step up in case things didnt go as smoothly today. But again this morning guys weve been out here all morning long riders say its been smooth sailing and nothing really to cause any hiccups along their commute. Back to you in the studio. Annie thanks much of the upset date in the men time caps fans still in the in good mood this morning. It wizards fans hoping washington can seal the deal down in atlanto night. The national kicking off weekend rivalry after probably exhausting themselves crossing the plate so many times in colorado. The redskins diving into the draft with a great pick. A lot going on. Good day sports report coming up a little later. First how far have we come and how far do we still need to go . Coming up next well mark 20 years since ellen came out on national tv. 9 10 is our time right now. Were looking for something thats comfortable but yet durable, and thats going to last us a really long time. I dont want to buy new furniture every couple of years. Its custom made so you know its good quality. Im just speechless because its perfect. Lilly. She pretty much lives in her favorite princess dress. But once a week i let her play sheriff so i can wash it. I use tide to get out those week old stains and downy to get it fresh and soft. You are free to go. Tide and downy together. Y2ay2y y16fy this is so hard but i i i think i realized that i am i cant even say the word. Why cant i say the word . Why cant i just say what is wrong . Why do i have to be so ashamed . Why cant i just say the truth . Be who i am. Im 35 years old. Im so afraid to tell people. [ applause ] that was a clip of actress and median Ellen Degeneres coming out someone can help me with the prompter please that would be great that was the clip of ellen coming out as gay on her then tv sitcom ellen. That was very Pivotal Moment it made her the first prime time leader on Network Television to come out and today actually mark the 20th anniversary of this historic moment. Ellen also came out in real life at the same time. During a sit down with oprah. And this now legendary Time Magazine cover and to mark the occasion and the comedian and the talk though host now will be airing a special commemorative episode of her popular talk show the Ellen Degeneres show she sits down with special guest Oprah Winfrey and actress laura dern who were both featured in the now iconic episode. What i think for everybody who goes through, um, anything where you of yourself and then youre brave enough, you have the courage because your whole calling is about you being who you were meant to be. And the fact that you did you would not be who you are medal of freedom, president obama wouldnt have said those wonderful things about you they were all so true. You wouldnt have been able to open hearts and touch hearts and change peoples minds and make a difference in the world had you not had the courage to do that. And 20 years ago you had no idea it would put you in this seat. No. No. And thats why i always encourage people because it really did teach me no matter what the cost is at the time. Yeah. It is always this morning were having our own discussion right here in the loft about that Pivotal Moment with ebony bell managing editor of tag magazine and michael, a writer for the washington. Good morning to both of you. Good morning. Original clip i got chills. You know, weve been asking people all morning long to give a grade to President Trump on where he stands on the first 100 days. Im not going to ask you to do that but im going ask you to give grade where do we stand now versus where we stood then in terms of a grade with equality . Watching clip we just saw ellen coming was a Pivotal Moment in the long history of the lgbt Rights Movement. She lost a lot when she came o out. Her show ultimately was taken off the air. But 20 years hence weve made a lot of strides as a community. We have marriage rights for same sex couples in this country transgender people are able to serve openly in the military we have folks like Caitlin Jenner who come out as transgender and coming out as bisexual. When people come out its celebrated but we still have a lot of work that remains to be ne because i was reading an article interview ellen had done about the 20 year anniversary, one of things she said was, i never realized how big the phrase, i am gay, is for someone whos gay because you really dont say that. Straight people dont walk around going im straight. You know. So if you think about the moment where you say, i am gay, it is at a moment in your life where youre revealing your true self to someone. Absolutely. She, um, what i appreciate about ellen is she does it on a national mat form. You know, we have community members, of course, that, you know, have come out within the community. But she used a National Platform to really force people to listen and talk about lgbt issues. That conversation i dont think would have happened if it wasnt for ellen. She was at the top of her game at the time. Right . She was willing to risk it all and she did lose a lot. But as martin often says you have to go through to it to get to it. She went through it, right . To get to where she is now. So lets talk a little bit more about where we are now. And where we need to go. Still. As i said the community has made lot of strides in the last 20 years since ellen came out on her show. Same sex marriage is now legal across the country. We can have transgender people serve openly in the military. The defensive marriage act which then president bill clinton signed no law just before this episode aired is now as many would say in the dust bit of history many things remain us we have a long ways to go. For example the most recent reports coming out of cheats nia for example where gay men are being arrested, tortured and being put into secret prisons really demonstrate that the lgbt Rights Movement not only a broad but also here in this country we have hate crimes here in d. C. That happen routinely so we really have long way to go. But we certa of progress and looking back 20 years since this episode really indicates that progress that we have made, but a lot, you can still remains to be done. Lets talk a little bit about the hate crimes because i often think, um, when we see anger that dissolves into hate its original and precipitates from fear. Umhmm. People are afraid, um, of being gay because they dont understand it. And then when theyre afraid of it, they get angry about it and then they hate it because they dont get it. How do we help people not be afraid . Because i think thats a big part of us moving forward. Yeah. I always say the best form of advocacy is visibility. We see lgbt characters now more than ever on television. I think like michael said theres still a lot of work to be done. Right now we have housing discrimination. Work discrimination and this is still happening. Al, important for lgbt people and our allies to step up for the transgender community. To me thats the Biggest Issue right now. And thats the biggest fear. Its really important for our community and allies to step up and say, hey, why are trance women of color being murdered or assaulted . And its really important to just look at people as people. Umhmm. Well, clearly you all are amazing in who you are and what you put out there and are wonderful role models as much as ellen in your own way. If someone was watching this morning and they were still struggling with this battle what would you say to them . Were here for you. Were here. Theres a whole community of people waiting to support you. We know that its hard. There are people in Middle America maybe who you dont have the resources. But were here. Youre not alone. Youre in the alone. Were here. Were waiting for you. You have a lot of i certainly agree with what ebony has said. When youre ready to make that step to come out know theres so many people who are willing to love and accept you and support you on that journey moving forward. It may not be the people you think. Exactly. Thats the thing. If ellen walk in here right now what would you say to her. Thank you. Thank you for being such an example and for taking that step and, you know, very courageous step coming out certainly very courageous for everybody. But certainly thank you for taking that step and paving the way for many others to follow in your path. Thank you both for taking your steps and coming here and paving the way for on thes as well. Thank you. Thank you. Back over to yall. 921st time. Well want to switch gears and talk about National Super hero day.

Eric new man is here as well. Good to see you guys. If morning. Who did you bring with you today. This is travis. Hi travis. And penny. What types of dogs are they . Penny is a long haired chi what were. And travis is a heinz 57 fox coon hound. Got little bit of everything. Great personality too. Yeah. Let him stretch down, travis take nap. Do whatever you feel hike doing the loft is yours this morning, my friend. [ laughter ] exactly. Its interesting we talk about pets all the time we celebrate our pets and we love to and our viewers are always great in zenning pictures of their pets. But that relationship between pet parent and the pet really kind of makes a huge difference makes or break the pets life, doesnt it. Absolutely. War some of the things that can make that relationship better . Maybe we shall start with some of the things we dont do well as pet parents. Right. War some of the places where we fall behind and we can do better. One of first places is the consistency. All too often when were working with our their negative behavior and instead we really should be reinforces positive behavior potentially redirecting to what we want them to be doing. Rather than chewing on the table or the chair rather give them their favorite bone and then praise them after wars. We hear i mean a lot of people when they get especially new pupae always no, no, no. Youre saying really thats not the best way to approach thing, is it. No. I think one of the most important things is also identifying the right dog to your family from the get go. If you have very active family and youll be able to have an active dog and take them out with you thats good dog for y you. If you are extremely busy and you have that active dog that dog is going to need your attention. So while were on that topic let me ask you about dogs with kids, too. Because i know its very important a lot of times the kids weigh want the dog and begging mom and dad. We want a puppy. I want a puppy. But mom and dad have to be real careful, too, about how that youngster grows with the puppy as well. Right. In what are some of t can keep everything safe here . Yeah. It really is supervision. A lot of times its making sure that the child also understands what they and shouldnt be do doing. Pulling tale, pulling ears i think thats a natural tendency for children. Teaching them ensuring youre supervising. Had a of all the dog bites are really from pets within the home and so its making sure that theres a boundary. Dont a lot of those happen when the parents minot be around when the youngsters are with the dog alone and we dont see exactly how theyre interacting. Right. Nor does the recognize when the dog is being how can we get all get a dog as well behave as this. [ laughter ] lots of exercise and tucker him out before you come onset. War the secrets . Look we grow with doing much thats what makes them part of the family because we get them as their young and energetic just like a child might be. They might mellow out over time but how do we get that pet to really we feel theyre part of the family how do we get them to believe were part of their fami a its definitely introducing them to lots of things at a young age. Before 16 weeks you want to make sure theyre subjected to me meeting people other dogs, other objects, things, touch their paws, touch their ears when they get their nails clipped it wont be traumatic experience. With children so all an environment where theyve experienced everything. Otherwise they can grow up and very skiddish, shy, which can lead to some aggression. And start them young havent the consistency. Exactly. Along the way. Yup. Gentlemen, always good to see you. From camp bow wow travis i think will be full of energy on the car ride back to columbia now because travis is just chilling right now. Arent you. Thanks for coming in. Thank you. Thank you.

Interview with reuters President Trump says he thought being the leader of the us would be quote easier. He went on to say he loved his life as a business mogul and being president is more work than live. President trumply says its been an adjust many getting used to living such a protected life adding that he misses driving. Im sure that he does. I mean thats change for anybody that all of a sudden gets that job. I mean its a different level. It really is. When i had to chance to talk to Michelle Obama years and years ago. The first thing you lose that opportunity to do what you want when you want. Right. It was one thing for her to sneak out of the white house sometimes to grab burger or go doing something a lot different when youre the actual president to try to escape unnotice glad think about that. Theyre at least one person that knows what youre doing at all times. All times. You have absolutely no privacy at all. I think its one of those things evidentable position when youre out in the. When youre in it youre like maybe not so much. Not so much. Okay. Tough job in many many ways. Tomorrow night the white house Correspondents Dinner refer to dcs nerve prom. Typically you bigger build up than this year. Journalists, politicians and celebrities mingle with the fancy dinner down at the hilton in dc. The president makes jokes and is the bust of a few jokes. A lot different this year. Two months ago the president nounsed he would not be a tending the dinner this year. The president will hold a big rally in pennsylvania. No white house staff will attend the Correspondents Dinner ei either. So secret the president does not like criticism and speculation is he didnt want all those joke made at his expense. A lot of people point to the 2011 Correspondents Dinner president obama and comedian seth myers made fun of President Trump. Friends say he felt humiliated now as far as who is going tomorrow there are some cleanse in town from hollywood actors alyssa milano, chad low, Billy Bob Thornton are expected to be there. And expected to attend this years host isian hassan manage of the daily show. Whats tough for the correspondents this year who the dinner is for the white house correspondents because a lot of where the president goes so President Trump not tenning the dinner was a blow to lot because the publicity and attention the dinner comes down with him saying hell be out of town, now a lot of the correspondents who are its their dinner now have to be out of town to cover the president who will not be at their dinner. Hopefully theyve done enough times its kind of old mat hat. You would think. It will go on. It is a it was never build as a celebrity dinner. It was a scholarship dinner. It work into that. Its going back to the roots. Some people said it had gotten out of control hadnt lost its identity of its real purpose originally. So, you know. Theres a huge portion of the country saying who cares . Right. Probably our little bubble. Our portion of the dmv good probably. President trump did say in one of the most interviews this week he would be open to it next year. Oh, okay. We shall see what happens between now and then. Okay. I love this. Sticking with heineken put out what some are calling the antidote to the pepsi Kendall Jenner ad. Two strangers meet. Pepsi could do well to consider next time. Encouraging dialogue is more responsible way to address our Current International predicament rather than glamorizing white washing the protest movement the way the pepsi ad appeared to do. Just listen. Climate change exists. Were that the taking enough action on climate change. I think its about time these people got off their high horses started looking for credible problems actually exist. Thats not right. Youre a man. Be a man or female be a female. Thats the ad. I posted it on my Facebook Page yesterday i believe or two days ago. Its a little lengthy but its so powerful. Because they have two people polar opposite views. They dont know this when they begin a sort of a task at hand. And at the end, their views are reviewed to each othernd so powerful to see people gotten to know eve other beyond what they think they know about them. It is i mean tear jerker it really is makes you say at the end of the day were all people and despite our mitt cal views and our differences at the core of all we want the same things for ourselves and our families. Amazing. Amazing stuff. People in your personal lives your friends your legs your neighbors your comb workers not everybody around you is on the same view politically but you get along. Youre able to separate that from this life. Thats why its so maddening that the people who make the decisions cant seemed to that. Right. They dont seem to care. They seem to push whatever agenda theyre pushing they forget about the people that put them there. I think its a power the that corrupts it at the heart of people i think you know, you know. I think theres other things, other influences and im hope that maybe through videos likeness we get back to the core of listen theres more that unites us than separates us. Because lord nose we need unity right now p worry in the all the same and we dont want to be all the same. Amen. 10 10. Now story thats generating a lot of debate when it comes to letting off some steam. A Montgomery County Elementary School principal apologizing for letting her staff take part in so called smash space. Its trend popular on social media where people smash items to relieve stress. The idea getting mixed reactions from parents. Melanie alnwick live where the smash space was found much whats the reaction there, mel . Reporter well you know obviously some people were disturbed by this. They were really lighting up the lift serve and other people talked to us and said they really dont see what the big deal is and they think its really been kind of taken out of proportion. So heres what happened. On march 8th, apparently the School Principal says there was a rocking chair in classroom that was broken beyond repair, couldnt be fixed, so it went back to a trash room a heading dock area and she decided that she would in fun let some Staff Members take a swing at it with baseball bat i off stress she says that it was it way from the school and out of sight of students but then it got posted op lift serve thats when the controversy began. Now, in apologetic letter to parents the principal said she got the idea after reading business articles you see one here from the New York Times about Companies Providing socalled anger rooms or smash rooms as a way for employees to relieve stress. Theres a lot of videos like these out there on social mode ya. Showing you youtube right now the trend popular arrived looking at thighs videos you can see how it might be distressing to imagine teethers with some kind of suppressed anger taking out their frustrations in this way but apparently we talk to this a parent we talk to this morning he learn it is it was nothing hike this and believes the whole thing has been overblown. If if they know her which most of them they know theres nothing to be worried about, it was an idea she was thinking out side the bock for her staff. And maybe it was a bad idea. Thats up for debate. Whats not up for debate theyre safe. Theyre cared for. Because of miss lease. Reporter the principal barbara lease did put out that letter saying that this probably was not the best idea saying that, yes, she recognizes now the concerns of some probably not the best modeling for students in terms of how people should deal with stress.
