It s like an inspiring and, like, allencompassing rallying cry. It stands for our team. Like let s [ bleep ] go. Let s do it. And the lfg, you can put out in the world and not upset mom. Lfg. Lfg. Let s [ bleep ] go. Let s [ bleep ] go. Let s get it. Let s get weird. It took true blood, sweat and tears to obviously get to where i am today. There were times i wanted to give up. I mean, here i am, threetime pro champion, twotime ncaa champion. I have achieved my dream. I wanted to make usa team, and i did. But even though all these athletes sound absolutely incredible, we don t get paid very much. I mean, i was scraping pennies for the past seven years in my career just trying to get by literally living paychecktopaycheck. I had friends who were waitresses who were making three times as much as me in a year. And me being a professional athlete, still to this day i still think it s unacceptable. And then it was like, oh, my gosh, holy crap. Megan raised her hand and was like, hey, team, w
The desperation is building for thousands and thousands of americans and afghan allies who are trying to escape from afghanistan. Here is what we know right now. We know that 3,000 people were evacuated in the last 24 hours on 16 military transport flights. That is a number that includes 350 americans and u. S. Permanent citizens. Now, for people on the ground, trying to get out is simply terrifying. This is harrowing. You see a video here of a young child being handed to american troops on top of a wall at the airport perimeter there in kabul. President biden will be briefed on afghanistan later this morning and will address the nation at 1:00 p. M. Eastern. All u. S. Senators will also be briefed virtually this afternoon. We also have new details about a classified cable sent to the state department by u. S. Diplomats in mid july calling for swift action to prevent a catastrophe in afghanistan. And in an extraordinary move, the top u. S. Commander in afghanistan has been leading the
What s that one guy doing with the leg cellular machines. Using his arms. Is that contra? what you are watching here is a colossal embarrassment. A rout over which we can and should continue to kick the biden administration over woke military leadership in their gender fluid groin. But we also have to move on and ask questions that are important to america s future. Wait. Just one more necessary gut punch of incompetence before we move on. One more bit of incompetence to indulge. Did you know that state departments sent a note to the more than 5,000 americans currently stranded in afghanistan and desperate to leave that reads as follows: and undefined number of u. S. Government provided will begin soon please make yourself to harmid karzai airport. The united states government cannot guarantee your safety as you make this trip. Basically the message is leave at your own risk. There you go. The biden strategy all summed up perfectly in a net shell. We can dwell on all the things that we
Become the latest today. As for the public sector, president biden is now telling federal agencies to require masking, inside buildings, in areas with what they are calling substantial or highcovid19 transmission, including washington, d. C. The pentagon, now, telling all military and civilian personnel in highrisk areas to mask up, regardless of vaccination status. New york s governor ordering vaccinations or regular testing for state employees. At the same time, even as some localities in their states are amping up restrictions, many redstate governors are resisting any calls to remask. More whiplash. More anger, from parents, as school boards weigh mask mandates for return to classes. Here is how that played out yesterday, in broward county, florida. Protestors outside a school board meeting burning masks. It is time to pass the this symbol of tyranny, this symbol of child abuse. We will not stand for it, anymore. Symbol of tyranny and child abuse. In washington, meantime, more poli
Splintering. And a member of the capitol riot committee tells us where this investigation goes next. Up first for us this hour, a seismic shift in the american workplace toward requiring covid vaccines. Facebook, google, netflix, all announcing that all employees returning to the office must be fax vaccinated. Morgan stanley and black rock doing the same. The growing change reaches into every sector of the economy. The washington post, essential and history saying you want to come back to work, you have to get a vaccine. Later today the president will put all federal workers and contractor or thes on notice, get a vaccine or face strict protocols, including regular testing and masking. We are starting off from the white house. A big shift from the president. There s no doubt. A dramatic shift in tone from president biden later today when we do hear him addressing vaccinations and covid19. We re told by administration officials he feels like he s up against a brick wall.
