house did not know what they were doing, that was part of it. but it was the risk management mechanisms we have in the federal government that has also fide. they have not been tended to for a very long time. they are really not up to managing the problems when they happen. what do we do with this? now, we are losing our faith and connections in our agencies, institutions and government. what is filling the vacuum? how do we address this? well, first, there is an intelligence postmortem that needs to be done. by whom? well, i am all for an independent 9/11 style commission, to go and among other things, ask the question, who did well and who did badly? why is the death rates in the miami area three or four times the death rate of the san francisco area? why are the red counties in california that did not comply
program. that language is deeply chilling and unnerving. and that has echoes across ages for the world for the kind of logic used to justify crimes against europe. that s true, chris. if you look at cases of mass atrocities, he almost always are preceded by an effort to dehumanize the perceived enemy. so the rwanda genocide, for example, they spoke about them as being cockroaches, not people. things you can snap out. in the case of ukraine is taken a step further, and that putin has the same normally. he claims that ukraine doesn t exist as a nation. the ukrainians welcome him, but it turns out, even the russians in ukraine prefer they re nations democracy to putin s autocracy. how do you explain that? the missouri nods of fide.
the missouri nods of fide. look i m not see is a threat. a soviet russia had a terrible experience with nazis. soldiers going, and actually come to perceive the local population as nazis, they ve laid the groundwork for atrocities. i think it s important to know, to, that is not just this propaganda. you also have to look at how russian commanders are acting. it s not as if they re sending a signal to troops on the ground, i m don excellence. these are the same commanders or indiscriminately bombing kharkiv or mariupol. bombing the theater in mariupol were hundreds of civilians are taking refuge. from the top, they re getting the signal, who cares about the conventions? so should be a surprise the troops on the ground proceed in a similar fashion? but they are, as you know, they are calling a denazification. human rights watch is interviewed people that said that the soldiers were
democracy and freedom abroad and the fide for democracy at home, and today is bloody sunday. right. vice president there going to march across the bridge, and the second time without john lewis leading this. were you surprised? i was stunned. it was an easy rhetorical move. politically hate to be that crass about it. you have to address the question what is happening across the country in terms of the assault on voting rights. and we have to address the liberal forces in our country that are driving the challenge to voting rights. so i didn t understand it, and i thought it was a mistake. i think if we are going to get drawn in more we have to explain to the american people why this fight matters. that would have been one way. thank you, guys. before we go, a quick programming note, my colleague lester holt has a fascinating interview with bill barr. it airs tonight in a prime time special on nbc, at 9:00, 8:00 central.
