defense, anita anand, thank you for your time. i appreciate it. thank you so much. take care. kaitlan? for more on this, on the american side of this, we have democratic congressman jason crow joining us this morning. he is a member of the house intelligence committee and previously served as a u.s. army ranger in afghanistan. good morning, congressman. my first question for you is, what have you heard from the administration about what s happened here? hi. well, good morning. first of all, kaitlan, this is not a new issue. this is an issue that the house intelligence committee and the department of defense and administrations have actually been tracking for many years. and there s kind of three different categories of what we call uaps, unidentified areal phenomenon. first are radar anomalies. these are things that pop up on the radar and are later determined not to be actual objects. the second are objects that are later identified as errant weather balloons or flocks of birds
waging a good war. also with us, retired u.s. army ranger adrian lewis, professor at the university of kansas and a reason adrian is on today is to focus on the civil rights movement and tom s book and the lessons learned from the military. tom, set the scene for us what you have in the book and learned about how this nonviolent movement learned some incredible philosophies from the military itself? one thing i loved about writing this book i began to think, wow,
you quoted diane nash. she had the courage of her convictions. after the terrible birmingham church bombing, four little girls blown up by 16 sticks of dynamite in a church. what could be more uncivilized? diane nash had the courage to write a memo to martin luther king and other leaders of the movement telling, they were handling the response to that badly but a lot of negative energy circulating at the funeral and at the crowds and that they needed to follow the basic civil rights movement principle of recycling negative energy into something positive. she said, you are failing as leaders. you need to get out there and do something. tom ricks, thank you. back with us tomorrow for more on the new book waging a good war: a military history of the civil rights movement, 1954-1968. retired u.s. army ranger adrian lewis, thank you as well,

truth. well, there will be consequences for that. i we re still waiting, but, yes. i m hoping that there are consequences for lying, and for completely just deleting your core values from your party, but we ll leave that right there. tom, let s point out, the professor talked about the army ranger handbook. here s, in your book, discussing how civil rights leaders took a page from the u.s. army when it came to how they shared information with each other. the u.s. army s ranger handbook carries one of the rules supposedly promulgated in 1759 by major robert rodgers during the french and indian war. tell the truth about what you see and what you do. there is an army depending on us for correct information. similarly, one lesson civil rights activist diane nash had taken away from participating in sit-ins, it was absolutely
