Bob shrum, nina turner great to have both of us with us. Thats the ed show. Politics nation with reverend al sharpton starts right now. Good evening, rev. \s. Good evening. Thanks for tuning in. President obama is meeting with a key ally King Abdullah of jordan, at the white house. Just hours after isis released another video of a brutal execution, a jordanian pilot burned alive in this highly produced clip you can see the pilot wearing an orange jumpsuit and speaking into the camera. Later he was locked in a cage and burned alive. The execution reportedly took
place a month ago on january 3rd. This video shows the moment when the pilots father heard of news of his sons execution. Around the same time the president was saying that the execution will not slow the coalitions attacks on isis. I think
What we found out he is come i there would have been a new cant remember if it is zero or that never happened with me and they are. Round of massive sanctions near 0 from any european county to the larger point of the against turkey. And you will see in the meeting one of the things you missed the president didnt want for lee legal aid. Meet you for the president say to take the meeting. Agreement that on the basis of we gave them tanks and they give he didnt want the phone call. Them pillows. The pause of 120 hours, a that is absolutely right.

Good morning to all of you. It is sunday may 31st. Im alex witt. Police responding to protest and civil unrest responding with tear gas and rubber bullets. Tensions high in cities where police pushed back protesters in efforts to curb looting and property damage, but the fires raged on from new york citys union square where nypd vehicles reported torched. To the west coast in los angeles where lapd cars were set on fire. Fires burned on the streets of washington, d. C. Not too far from the white house as well as this strip mall in fayetteville, north carolina, and this was the scene on the streets of grand rapids, michigan. Fires, vandals smashing in windows in spite of a very heavy Police Presence. Fires burned at big stores in tampa, florida, as looters also took to the streets last night. Out in large numbers at this mall in scottsdale, arizona. In san francisco, where a best buy store became a target. All this in spite of an increased Police Presence in places like detroit and chec

Hes like some oldstyle democrats who are pro life but solid on health care for the poor, protection of minimum wage. You know, like former bob casey. And more conservative when it comes to matters of sex. Maybe its the best we can do. And thats hardball for now. Politicsnation with al sharp to
