gave the ultimate sacrifice for this nation. kevin barrett, i m going to come to you in a moment, but i want to cross over to kristen welker at the white house. kristen, we talk so much about the political bickering in this country, but what can we expect to hear from the president today on this hollowed ground? reporter: well, typically, ayman, memorial day and this ceremony that we are watching unfold is a moment for politics to be put aside. the president will likely deliver remarks that pay tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, to really focus on the service and the sacrifice and to not delve into some of the news of the day topics. obviously, we ll be listening closely to see if he veers from that in any way, shape or form. but he was tweeting earlier this morning about memorial day, giving us perhaps a little bit of an indication of what he might say. he tweeted, honoring the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice and service to america. home of the fr
