Is likely. We hope that doesnt happen. The sad truth is this is what being at war and extracting yourself out from the middle of a Civil War looks like. Its precisely why biden is trying to bring it to an end and why most americans agree with that. It seems republicans are doing nothing but searching for a position that will pay off for them politically in 2022. Except they cant seem to decide between the usual warmongering or calling for the president s resignation. Remember, it was the Clown Show of the past administration that brought us here in the first place, including releasing 5,000 taliban fighters, one of whom is running afghanistan. Something they would very much like for you to forget. Ill be meeting with taliban leaders in the not too distant future and well be very much hoping that they will be doing what they say they are going to be doing. They will be killing terrorists. They will keep that fight going. When i hear general Mckenzie Say that the taliban is going to protect us, the taliban is the enemy. I dealt with the leader of the taliban. This is not this is not a very simple man in is not a boy scout. We have seen the taliban leadership working diligently to reduce violence from previous levels during similar time periods. We still have confidence that the taliban leadership was working to deliver on its commitment. The taliban arent looking for international recognition. These are butchers. Then there The Forever War Thirsty Warren who is want to Reinvade Afghanistan for who knows how long. Well take troop on the ground and take a complete reassessment of our strategy. The military can do it. We are going to expand this operation. Id put more military in there and get every single american out and start killing bad guys. Joe biden needs to reverse course. He needs to stay at the airport as long as necessary and make sure we get every last american citizen out of lafg. Afghanistan. None of this is deterring the president. Now its come with a significant loss of american personnel. Its a worthy mission as they continue to evacuate folks out of that regiOn And out of the airport. Evacuate more than 12,000 people out of the airport. More than 114,000 people have nowuated from afghanistan. The largest Air Lift undertaken by any country ever. For those of us who were dubious about occupying a country like afghanistan. We dont know culture. We cant get our own democracy to work here. We cant people to protect themselves from covid. It didnt seem like a great idea in first place. I think a lot of americans are relieved its coming to an end and support the president in this. I want to let you hear what the president said yesterday. Lets go back a day and what he said about what his alternatives look like. Take a listen. Imagine where we would be if i indicated on may 1st, i was not going to renegotiate evacuation date. We were going to stay there. I had only one alternative. Pour thousands of troops back into afghanistan. Senator, It Sounds like some of your colleagues on the republican side would very much like for us to do that for Tens Of Thousands of troops back into afghanistan. What do you think . Joy, thanks for having me. Our collective hearts are breaking for the families of those that were lost yesterday in afghanistan. We hope there isnt anymore news like that to come despite the threats that continue at the airport. You are very right. The republican party has been very clear that their desire is to stay in afghanistan for ever. They may not say it that way but what we know is there was never going to be a moment when the united States Military was going to be able to create a fully functioning independent and competent afghan military and government. If we couldnt do it in 20 years, we werent going to do it in another 10 or another 20. What youre seeing today is absolutely horrific. Its tragic. There was no way, in my mind, to avoid this kind of Chaos And Panic e on the ground when the afghan military collapses in a matter of 24 hours be p its proof positive the decision was leave was the right one. Theres lots of folks in washington who make a lot of money off of war whether you be a Think Tanker or a defense company lobbyist. Nobody is happy when a war comes to an end because the money stops flowing at the level it was in this town. Thats not the only reason we were in afghanistan but its part of the reasOn And republicans are going to cheer lead for more and more Forever War despite the fact the american people still support for what Joe Biden did. Its this disconnect between the foreign Policy Establishment and the american people has been ongoing for a long time. The american people want us out of iraq and afghanistan. Barack obama knew that, Donald Trump knew that. They didnt, i guess, have the ability to break with the Military Industrial Establish M and lead. Joe biden had the courage and the guts to do that. You are now seeing that establishment come down on him like a ton of bricks. Absolutely. Theres War Machine that wants to be fed constantly. President eisenhower called it the military industrial complex. Whats interesting is how some of these republicans are. They may love the military but they love Donald Trump more. A couple of people had shifting View Ons this idea. Josh hawley. This was on april 13th. Approximate biden should withdraw troops by may one as the trump administration plan. Better late than never. He loved it back then. August 26th, the Loss Ov american lives is sickening just what happened the its entraj enraging. Hes turned because its a different president. Kevin mccarthy. Sorry. We can go On And on. Ted cruz, a lot of them who were all for the deal that Donald Trump made to get out and were demanding that Joe Biden live with that deal are now pretending they never thought that. Is this, in your view, more about 2022 and them trying to build a case that will help them politically because it doesnt seem to be authentic . Well, i think its more about this sort of instinctual reaction that republicans have to oppose Anything And Everything that a democratic president is going to do. I remember that some of the most hawkish republicans opposed president obamas plans to bomb syria in wake of the chemical weapons attacks. I opposed it as well but it was shocking to see Marco Rubio Voting against it. They were against it because Barack Obama was for it. What worries me most in this republican line of Magical Thinking is that many of them are thinking its Donald Trumps decision to bring all the troops out that put Joe Biden in the position as to whether to keep those troops there and lead them to slaughter because that wasnt enough to hold against the taliban. Withdraw them or put 10,000 more troops into the country. Something the american public didnt support. Im glad biden called this out and made it clear it was Donald Trumps decision to leave. It left Joe Biden with really only two options. One, get everybody out or a massive surge back into afghanistan which the facts of the case would not merit. How do we reduce their power because it does seem that every president winds up in some way or other in war, in a situation where they are deploying our military. Unless you have a Family Member in it, most americans kind of look the other way. Theres not theres not nightly stories about afghanistan. All of the Hand Wringing were seeing in the media, its not like any of these folks have been doing nightly stories on afghanistan. Its fallen out of the american memory and all of a sudden every one is an expert on afghanistan. This this about the Power Loblyist . Our Military Budget is the biggest on earth. People want to use it. They dont just want to have it. Listen, i dont want to make It Sound like its all a matter of nefarious motivation. There are a lot of well meaning people especially in the Think Tank Community who constantly proffering plans for how the united states can fix very difficult problems on the other side of the globe and most of those plans only work on paper and not in reality. Theres a lot of folks that arent making profit off of making the case for america to go into places like afghanistan. The problem is, is that when we try to solve problems around the world, the only tool that we have is the u. S. Military. Its up to us in congress to use this moment right now when democrats control the house and the senate to reorient the Tool Kit of an american president to say were going to give the State Department and usaid tremendous new resources so that when a president decides he wants to fix the problem, he doesnt only have military trainers or Arm Sales to deploy. I think responsibility is in the media. The fact of the matter is the media didnt seem to be very interested in afghanistan when the war was being conducted. 10,000 afghans were badly injured in 2019 but almost no attention. Its the withdrawal that seems to take all the attention. If we want it to be a bit harder to stay in a war and a little bit easier to get out of wars then the media has to even out the balance of their coverage. You can get an amen. Its not sunday but you can get an amen on that regarding the media. Youre right. Thank you very much. We really appreciate you. Youre great. Have a great weekend. Up next.

Why hasnt that officer that executed Ashley Babbitt been named. They are protecting that person. They covered up who shot Ashley Babbitt. For months before Michael Byrd revealed his identify, the former president and his allies have been trying to out him. The truth is members of the far right media had already begun piecing together clues about his identity as early as february. It wasnt long before Byrds Name was being about on right wing websites and trump confirmed earlier this month that quote, we know who he is. In other words, they have known his identity for some time. They knew he was black. In fact, Trump Ally and infamous birther called could focus on little else when he publicly announced Byrds Name way back in april. I happen know the name of that cop but you have to dig to find it. The guy is lieutenant michael leroy byrd. Youll almost not see that in a single media report. You know why . Because hes plaque. What im trying to get at here is that if youre black, and on the left, you have a sort of pass in our culture. That was in april. It explains a lot about the right wings dangerous obsession with officer byrd. While we Cant Pinpoint when trump first learned of byrds identity, it cast his threats in an even more ominous light. If that were on the other side, the person that did the shooting would be strung up and hung. Strung up. Now in the wake of the interview with lester holt, Tucker Carlson and others are working over time to portray Ashley Babbitt as a martyr while demonizing byrd. He is calling her a protester and Knocking Byrd for doing the job. I dont think we execute ene unarmed protesters. Hes a hero. We call that courage, we devalued the term. Hashtag back the blue, right. With me is mary Donald Trump. I immediately got afraid for him. Now Im Thinking back to times that your Uncle Donald said we know who you are and hearing they knew his Race Back in april. I feel like the threats against him feels more ominous now. Does it feel more ominous to you . It feels extraordinarily ominous. I think its exactly where we are right now. It feels like its getting Out Of Control. A lot of this has to do with the fact people on the right get away withpuimpunity. Theres never accountability and they will take any opportunity to twist things in way that advantages them. Im thinking of white officers killing a black Man Or Woman in bed who posed no threat. None of these people say anything but thats white officer killing a black person. Theyre not interested in that. They dont care about that. Suddenly they are obsessed with this. He said Byrds Name was con concealed because he was black. Hes obsessed with the idea hes black and now you have tucker. All of these people are obsessed with his race. Do you believe that Donald Trump might have known when he was saying we know who you are that this man was black . Yeah. He was in a position to know. I believe he kind of kept it under wraps and just hinted about it to stir up anxiety and build drama because thats what he does and then he handed it off to other people and carlton, sorry, fish sticks, whatever his name is. They run with it or continue to engage in this rhetoric like saying immigrants carry diseases and its immigrants who are sickening us with covid even though last i checked florida doesnt share a border with anybody whos not in the united states. Its so dangerous and it feels like its Out Of Control because they are willing to take advantage of any circumstance to spin the froout on its head. Were seeing this in afghanistan. Were seeing it with Lieutenant Byrd. Its hard to know when there will be an end in sight if the democrats keep trying to play ball with these people. Pair ri trump, its always great to talk with you. Thank you very much. Joining me is former member of president Obamas Task Force on 21st citizen policing. When you found out he is a black police officer. We know shot and killed, legally, a white insurrectionist, how that hit you as a law enforcement officer. For someone who spent over 20 years as a police executive, just an executive role itself, ive had a number of Police Officers white and black, all shape, sizes and colors who have been involved in officer involved shootings. At the end of the day, for me, it doesnt matter what color they are if they conduct themselves appropriately. If they conduct according to their training and by law. Thats all that was important. To this case, as it relates to Lieutenant Byrd. Lieutenant byrd and that entire u. S. Capitol, we would all have to agree Thats Something very serious going wrong that day as it was a threat to our u. S. Democracy. On that particular day and that particular hallway and that particular moment, Lieutenant Byrd had to make a decision. Decision based on experience, based on his training, not based on the fact that he was black or white or whether that was a male or female or she was black or white but he did what he was trained to do accordingly by this u. S. Government in this democracy that we live in to protect the intelligentintegrit u. S. Capitol. Someone like myself who have a number of conservative views as it relates to public Safety And Policing in this country, at the end of the day, right is right. This is not about color. This is about whats legally right. This is about true law and order. Its unfortunate. It was sad for the victim. It was sad for the officer who had to pull the trigger and it was sad day for this nation. Hopefully we never have to be confronted with something like there again. Lieutenant byrds color should be irrelevant. It isnt because the threats against him are directly related to the fact hes black. Hes being targeted specifically who are hell raisers. They try to whip up this brand of the trumpist right. They are doing it specifically based on his race. Hes fixated on the fact this man is black. The capitol police say the officer was not being identified. They didnt want to identify him for his safety. He is facing threats. You have to say that because trumpism is so baited down and weighed down by racial resentment, that he is under more threat because hes black. As a black Officer Isnt he in greater risk now . I think it goes without saying. Fp youre a person of color in this country, youre always going to be under more scrutiny, period. If we look at the four officers who testified, one being white in front of congress a few weeks ago. You remember the threats. Hes getting threats too. Thats right. Now you have Lieutenant Byrd who would have come up under threat whether he was white or black but the fact that he is black in this society and this country that we live in, people will manipulate for its own benefit. I have the confidence in this country and the residents and the citizens of this country that the majority will not be mislead. We will learn from it and hopefully nothing like there happens again. That officer, Lieutenant Byrd operated within and under the color of law. Decide how much force do i need to use to stop the threat. Thats The Way that you determine if a shooting is legitimate. Heroic because the threat was real. You could hear it. You could see it. You could feel it through the tv. They were banging on that door and trying to come through the door. He didnt care who was on the other side. He was protecting all of those people. You see it right there. This was not a protest, everybody. This was a threat. That man did his job. Ive been covering Police Shootings since 2012, that was a shooting that was unfortunate. Sorry somebody lost their life but you cant argue with the facts. Thank you very much. Still ahead.

Hes done the least to contain the spread and the most to prolong the pandemic for the rest of the country. The pandemic is worst than its been in any previous point. He had the audacity to run over there and blame President Biden. He said he was going to end covid. He hasnt done that. Were the first state to start the treatment centers. Having great success with that. That should have been a bigger plan, bigger part of this whole response from the beginning. You heard that right. He said florida is great success. We should all be like florida. Well, today, florida reported a single Day Record for new cases. More than 27,000. Icus are stretched to their limits. More cities are Rationing Waerts for supplies of liquids oxygen. 68 hospitals had less than 48 Hours Worth of oxygen supply. Yesterday the state recorded the largest single day deaths in pandemic history. Morgues at ten hospitals are at capacity using rented coolers. Funeral homes report having bodies stacked to the ceiling. On this planet, we would call that a failure. Meanwhile, ron has been busy promoting his Regeneron Pop ups and his campaign to infect the Sunshine State children by his Mask Man Date. A State Judge smacked him down ruling in favor of a group of parents who sued arguing the Mask Man Date ban was unconstitutional. Leon County Judge blocked the order saying its without legal authority and by definition arbitrary. Ron has vowed to appeal. Got to get more kids infected. Joining me now is florida agriculture commissioner, nikki freed. She is joining for Florida Governor. Florida lost 43,600 people to covid since the start of the pandemic. The judge ruled that De Santis doesnt have the authority to try to force schools to allow kids the come in maskless. Its Ironic De San Tis cited the bill of rights saying thats what gave him the authority. What effect do you think this will have on the state of covid in the state of florida . First of all, thank you for having me on tonight. Those headlines are just heartbreaking. When i heard of that ruling, i was at a meeting with a bunch of parents and teachers and School Board members. When i actually announced the ruling and that he ruled with the parents, teachers and democracy. There was a clear that went out loud. The School Board member i was sitting next to pushed to have a i think i froze. Were here. We can see you. We got you. Immediately, a Board Member i heard that ruling, she pressed an email asking for an Emergency Hearing for her Brevard County School Board. Im hoping the rest that were scared of the retribution was spouting the last couple of weeks that they feel empowered to do right again by their kids and by their communities. Florida is such a mess right now. My former state. Your Surgeon General is leaving. Hes leaving the administration. He issued a Standing Order allowing floridans to be treated without a doctors note. He issued Emergency Rules detailing the School Districts must allow parents the opt their children out of mask mandates. Its probably a great thing that hes leaving. This man is a pediatrician. He didnt appeal for the mask mandate. He didnt bother to show up. Im terrified. Does the governor get to appoint the Surgeon General . Who is coming next . Thats a concern but hes been mia for a good part of over a year. Ive been asking where has our Surgeon General been. The fact hes resigning is not going to change anything for our state because hes not been here. Unfortunately, De Santis has an appointment and has to go through the senate. Its a confirmation process. Its not like hes been listening to scientists and experts. Its not going to make a difference. He will do what he believes will get limb to that 2024 nominatiOn And thats all he cares about. Thats all he cares about. The Record Number of children under 12, thats the largest group of children that are with cases right now is under 12 years old. Hes going around and threatening School Board members and hes taking his Victory Tour that we should be blaming President Biden for this. Were in an emergency and ive been asking for over three weeks for him to declare emergency. Ive been talking to parents and teachers and to hospitals and to nurses and to doctors. Were terrified of what is happening here. Our teachers are afraid to be in the classroom. Our parents are stuck with this impossible situation of whether or not to put their kids back into school or keep them home. What do they do for work . The trickle down impact on our economy, the impact on our health care system, this is a crisis and im heartbroken that our state is having to go through this today. Its almost like he wants covid to spread as widely as possible and infect as many people as possible. I know It Sounds wild but its almost as if hes doing scott atlas, lets infect as many people as possible. Its bizarre and madness. Thats what hes doing. Thank you very much. Really appreciate you being here. Still ahead, the unbelievable wisconsin School Board voted to opt out of a free Food Program for kids.

Ask your doctor about eliquis. Remember that Mass Exodus of texas democrats who left their state to block republicans from passing the voting restrictions. That bill that democrats call Jim Crow 2. 0 will prohibit drive through vetting and 24 hour early voting. The 38 day walk out ended allowing the bill to pass the tax house today. It now heads to the senate. This urgent state of Voting Rights in texas and beyond is why multiple events will take Place Tomorrow in washington, d. C. And in cities throughout the nation including mar mp on for Voting Rights. She fled her state to thwart voting restricts. Along with reverend Al Sharpton and deserve a luj congratulations as we approach the tenyear anniversary of his show, Politics Nation. In the end, what did the walk out achieve if the bill will pass in. First of all, its great to see you. My heart has been broken for the last few days knowing that some of my colleagues decided it was best to give the republicans and the Texas State House a quorum. While we did accomplish a lot, we did not accomplish enough, in my opinion to decide it was time to go back. Some of those things we accomplished is that hr4 is a bill that had been filed over and over while John Lewis was alive. Sadly enough, it can never get passed. It got passed in the house. We started a movement in this country. We made it clear that Voting Rights is under attack. Hey, who cares, who knows. Instead we basically rang the alarms and said listen up. Things are getting really bad. Our democracy is under attack. We were able to get movement on that bill. Speaker pelosi told us but for yall walking out, i dont know if they really would have understood the urgency of getting there passed now. Yes, we got past the house. We still got to get past the senate. We know thats a different animal in and of itself. One of the things they accomplished, the dems who walked out and led to d. C. , they did show us the meaning of the World Fight and what it can look like when somebody has Ra Real Will to fight. This is what im hearing from a lot of democrats. They dont see that kind of will to fight among d. C. Democrats. They see it when it came to getting their infrastructure bill. They are fighting hard for that. If they really meant it, that they really intend to have hr1 and have hr4 become law, they would fight like a texas democrat. I guess my question is somebody in those rooms and talking with the White House and talking with the senior leadership, at what point are they going to start to fight like the texas democrats did . I think they will start fighting when we start fighting which is why were having the March Tomorrow and marches around the country and why were marching to the capitol the the mall where the cally will be facing the capitol rather than going just to the memorial to remember what happened 58 years ago. Were under siege right now. As i said its true. I remember when Martin Luther King the third, his wife and i joined them to the king monument. We said they started a movement because it shows states rights. Were talking about is rereturned to states by states to have the right to decide election law. The whole idea of the civil Rights Movement was to get the federal government to stop states rights, including in Voting Rights. Thats what the voting Rights Bill of 65 was about. Thats why based on what they did, we now must make the senate carve around the filibuster and give us this Senate Bill which is hr4. If they can carve around the filibuster to confirm Donald Trumps nominees to the supreme court, what is more basic in a democracy than to have a carve out to protect peoples right to vote particularly when they are being targeted by race. That would be seem to be pretty logical. The irony here is that a lot of the rules, the 24hour Voting and making it easier to vote was because of the pandemic. Do you think that one of the outcomes, the unintended outcomes of what republicans have done is they will make it harder for their folks to vote too or do you fear that what they have done is going to be effective at shutting down the progress thats been think they effective . Thats a great question. You know, i actually did a tweet not too long ago speaking about the one republican that, between these two bills, h. R. 4 as well as s. B. 1 in the texas house, the only republican that actually voted against the passage of s. B. 1, lyle larsen, he understands that. I recall i apologize. I recall when he actually sent us a letter specifically stating that there were elections officials in republican areas that were saying, hey, this brill is bad, and they were laying out the sections that were going to be problematic. When you look at our rural areas, what you see is so many of them use vote by mail, and theyre making it more difficult. So they actually may end up shooting themselves in the foot with this bill. But more importantly, what we see out of the intent, the speaker of the house said, you wont use the r word. You wont use racism, racist on the floor. The fact that you need to say that tells you everything you need to know about this bill. They said you are not forred audience, just so you know, they banned the use of the Word Racism in debating the bill. Hello, first amendment. They said, you are not allowed to use the Word Racism. Okay. Rev, im going to let you get in and give your thoughts on that. But first i do have something i have to show you. This is cut three from our producers. I have to spring this on you.

Queens callous comments were too much for the people to take. For most, her alleged words serve as a cautionary tale to warn of the dangers of indifference and heartlessness. For republicans, however, its a proud mantra. Take, for example, waukesha county, wisconsin, which voted overwhelmingly for trump last year. Earlier this week the School Board refused to accept money from a federal Lunch Program that helps feed poor kids. I mean why would people refuse to feed hungry children . As one of them said, the program made it too easy for families to become spoiled. If that wasnt disgusting enough, a County Official said he was worried that the free lunches would become a slow addiction. Ah, yes, we wouldnt want hungry kids to become spoiled or addicted to food. Maybe they were inspired by the resident Grim Reaper of the south, Florida Governor ron desantis, who is refusing to apply for up to 820 Million in Food Assistance for more than 2 Million kids. To put that in terms that yall can understand, that means that the parents of kids who qualify for free or reduced lunches in florida are missing out on an extra 375 during a pandemic. And desantis does this while flinging open the door to a variant thats targeting children with a Ferocity Weve never seen. Along those same lines, Take A Look at what Laura Ingraham recently said about people recently struggling during the pandemic. What if we just cut off the unemployment . Hunger is a pretty powerful thing. I dont mean physical hunger because people who truly are in need, need help. Im talking about people who can work but refuse to work. Im sorry. What . Are there no orphanages . What is wrong with these people . Oh, wait. I know. They love cruelty. They savor it. Cruelty is the point. Want another example . Just Take A Look at the conservativeled supreme court. Last night that conservative majority cleared The Way for evictions to resume across the country. Yay. 3. 5 million americans could now end up in The Street thank to justices roberts, alito, thomas, gorsuch, barrett, and kavanaugh, a decision they probably cooked up while sitting in the comfort of their million dollar suburban homes. So on this friday evening, I Toast these republicans as the absolute worst because it takes a particular type of person to look someone in need in the eye and then just turn your back on them and say, go hungry. Stop being so greedy. Why do you want food . I guess they really do believe there is no such thing as a free lunch. Before we go, i have one more thing to share with you. Today i did a very cool thing. I spent the afternoon at my favorite eatery, the famous Melbas Restaurant in harlem, where melba and the great folks from the hospital, including hazel dukes, our Friend Dr. Lipi roy, helped Harlem Get Vaxed and safe from covid. Heres the first wonderful person to step up to the van and stay healthy and safe by getting vaccinated. Congrats to everybody that got vaxed today and thank you to the medical heroes who volunteered their time. William reed jr. And brittany, im looking at yall to get vaxed net. I told you i was going to call you out tonight and thats what i did. That is tonights reidout. I have to say to the staff at harlem hospital, you did yeomans work. Melba wilson, you are the woman. Today was a day we really cared for our community and loved with our community. All in with Chris Hayes starts now. Tonight on all in, the unhinged backlash to policemen defending democracy. Given the nature of the threats that you describe, do you have any concern about showing your face and identifying yourself . Of course i do. I believe i showed the utmost courage on january 6th, and its time for me to do that now. Then, why are Police Unions across america so vehemently opposed to Vaccine Mandates . Plus aly, imhe
