naming of steve bannon. i can t speak to the president-elect s intentions. i can only talk about the outcome. this seems to embolden the extremists. what do you say to those who say jared kushner is obviously he s jewish and devout, ivanka is a convert. joe pollack wrote a piece defending bannon saying it s ridiculous to call him an anti-semite. this is libel. he s a cesspool of misogyny. it s the pandora s box pulled wide open. it s hard to say why this is happening. all we can focus on are the
joe pollack, author and political commentator and gavin mcguinness. his great book the death of cool paperback and if you haven t purchased it go there and get it right now. sitting next to me for an ungodly reason is andy levy. a block. the lede. that s the first story. man up, greg. all right. mount up. anyway, the head of lulu made a boo-boo. the billionaire founder of louisiana lemon. lululemon has issued a teary apology for making comments. the hugely successful workout wear company recalled 70% of their yoga pants after discovering you can see through them. that s a bad thing?
frank fort. dana bash and senior editor at large for breitbart news, joe pollack. wow, that s not helpful. the white house said today they agreed with president clinton and that s why they re attempting these fixes although the fixes really have nothing to do with the president s talking which would really be a major change. what are you hearing from democrats on the hill? what s fascinating is we have a senior congressional democratic source told me they set a deadline for friday because house republicans have legislation they will vote on friday to effectively let people keep the plans. it s a pretty sweeping legislation. even junk plans? even the plans that actually are yeah. yes. because it s up to people to decide and it shouldn t be the government and regulations and so forth. but when it comes to politics, i m told that if the white house doesn t come up with an alternative by friday, you will have a lot of democrats in the house jumping ship, even though they don t like
you didn t say that trayvon had it coming and apparently his ratings are falling and he needs more eye balls to come so what does he do? he attacks you. he s used as a prop by the washington insiders oh, joe said about other republicans and he s used on a daily basis. the president could have said respect the jury s verdict. the president could have known this case is not about race. there s no evidence in this case presented of any racial animos by george zimmerman. the jury is still out in the jury of american public opinion. i ve heard a lot of people go back and forth about this and dr. king posed this question almost 50 years ago, where do we go from here? as we are about to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the march on washington we re still asking that question. dr. king described in the first part of his speech the nightmare that americans were living, all americans were living.
pretty unbelievable. joining me now with reaction, joe pollack and democratic strategist back with us. good to see you both. your reaction to some of the rhetoric that was used. a lot of it was over the top. i said it was going to happen. well, do some people show up at protests with their own agenda? absolutely. there was a pro-zimmerman rally in texas where a woman showed up with a sign that said racist and proud and that was in the newspaper today. so certainly there are people who show up who behave badly at protests and that s not something you can control for but the bulk of people there are genuinely concerned and one thing i feel totally overlooked and missed in this argument is that black people are hurt by this decision. we are literally hurt. and so this is not about scoring political points, this is about us feeling like we are, once again, not as important. that our lives don t have value. that is the legitimate sense.
