EVERYONE.

AND THANKS FOR JOINING US ON THE WEEKEND REVIEW.

I'M AMANDA KING REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP VISITS CHICAGO FOR AN APPEARANCE THAT QUICKLY TURNS CONTENTIOUS.

A VERY WHY I HAVE QUESTIONS RUSHED WITH ANOTHER.

I HAVE BEEN THE BEST PRESIDENT FOR THE BLACK POPULATION SINCE ABRAHAM LINCOLN BETTER.

MY TRUMP TELLS THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF BLACK JOURNALISTS THAT HIS OPPONENT IS PLAYING UP BEING BLACK FOR POLITICAL BENEFIT.

THEIR MATCHUP IS JUST ABOUT A DONE DEAL.

DELEGATES TO THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION VOTE VIRTUALLY TO MAKE VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS, THEIR NOMINEE.

BUT WHO WILL HARRIS CHOOSE AS A RUNNING MATE?

THIS MAY BE THE 73RD TIME THAT YOU AND YOUR COLLEAGUES HAVE ASKED THIS QUESTION.

I'M NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT THOSE CONVERSATIONS.

ILLINOIS GOVERNOR JB PRITZKER STAYS COY, EVEN AS ALLIES GO TO THAT ON HIS PAST.

DON'T COUNT.

THE CHICAGO TEACHERS UNION AMONG THEM.

WEEKS AFTER SONIA MASSEY WAS KILLED IN HER OWN HOME BY A SHERIFF'S DEPUTY PRESSURE INTENSIFIES FOR POLITICIANS AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT TO TAKE ACTION IN HER NAME.

AFTER I ASK THIS MASSIVE AND A FAMILY FOR FORGIVENESS.

I NO EXCUSES.

WHAT I DO IS OFFER OUR TENT.

BET.

MASSEY'S FAMILY AND CIVIL RIGHTS LEADERS SAY AN APOLOGY ISN'T GOING TO WE ARE WE FOR SONYA MASSEY.

YOUR BEAT YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

SONYA MASSEY'S.

FINAL WORDS NOW TO OUR WEEK IN REVIEW PANEL TO TALK ABOUT ALL OF THAT MORE ARE LYNN SWEET FROM THE CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, GREGORY PRATT OF THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE.

MICHAEL, LET TRUMP FROM SOUTH SIDE WEEKLY AND SARAH CART OF WBEZ.

NOW LET'S BEGIN WITH FORMER PRESIDENT AND POTENTIAL NEXT PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP'S VISIT TO CHICAGO.

AND MICHAEL, TO YOU BECAUSE YOU ATTENDED THE AND A DJ CONVENTION.

SOME FOLKS DIDN'T WANT PRESIDENT TRUMP THERE.

AND ALSO BEFORE WE GET TO THE CONTENT, WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THE CONTROVERSY OF WHETHER THIS WAS AN APPROPRIATE VENUE OR NOT?

CONTROVERSIAL IN THE AMANDA AND FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT TRUMP WAS COMING MONDAY NIGHT LEADING UP TO HIS TALK WEDNESDAY AROUND NOON.

IT WAS DEFINITELY A LOT OF CONTROVERSY.

AND AS I SEE IT, THERE WAS 2 SIZE AT THE TRADITIONAL SIDE OF MORE SO ORDER IN A B J MEMBERS WHERE THIS IS JUST WHAT YOU DO.

WE ANY BJ EVERY ELECTION CYCLE.

YOU INVITE CANDIDATES FROM BOTH SIDES ALLOWED THEM TO COME ADDRESS THE JOURNALISTS AND WHAT THEIR SIDE, YOU KNOW.

THAT SITE IS AT ODDS WITH MORE PROGRESSIVE, YOUNGER DEMOGRAPHIC THAT SEEING IT AS TRUMP BEING THE EXCEPTION TO THAT TRADITION AND THAT EVEN THOUGH IN A B J HAS OPENED ITS STORES TO PREVIOUS PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES TO BOTH SIDES, MORE PROGRESSIVE LEADING VIEWED IT THAT TRUMP SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN EXCEPTION AND THAT PROGRESS WITH THAT TRADITION WOULD HAVE BEEN TO WAR TRUMP OUT FOR HIS TRACK RECORD WHEN IT COMES TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY.

BASICALLY THAT THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A CONVENTION WHERE IT'S SAFE SPACE AND A GATHERING UNIFYING EVENT AND THAT GIVEN HIS RECORD, TRUMP IS THE OPPOSITE.

SO I KNOW THE REUNION SAY I KNOW MICHAEL, IT CAN BE OFF AWKWARD FOR JOURNALISTS.

WE TRY TO, YOU KNOW, OFTEN STAY OBJECTIVE TO YOU HAVEN'T TAKEN WHERE YOU COME AND THAT THAT YOU WANT TO SHARE AND IT'S OKAY IF IT'S A QUESTION LIKE THAT OBJECT AND FROM SEE MY COLLEAGUES AND JUST THEIR REACTION TO IT.

THAT LED ME TO QUESTION A LOT BECAUSE AS JOURNALIST OBJECTIVITY IS SOMETHING THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE GUIDING LIGHT.

I THAT THE EYE ON THE SPARROW THAT WE'RE FOLLOWING IN OUR CAREERS AND SEEING THAT WHEN IT COMES TO THINGS ARE SO CONTROVERSIAL THAT HIT AT WHO YOU ARE AND THE FUNDAMENTALS OF WHAT YOU STAND FOR.

IT'S HARD PEOPLE TO STAY SOUTH AND IT'S SOMETHING WHERE I SET BACK AND I THOUGHT A LOT ABOUT WHAT THIS MEANS BECAUSE IN FAIRNESS OF THE TRADITION, DONALD TRUMP WAS INVITED GIVE A PLATFORM JUST AS ANY OTHER PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE WOULD.

HOWEVER.

THE NEED FOR THAT TO BE CONSIDERED AND TO HEAR OUT PEOPLE WERE WANTING AN EXCEPTION TO BE MADE FOR HIM AND NOT THIS HAPPENING.

SO LAST MINUTE AND THAT REALLY IS WHAT TOOK PEOPLE BY SURPRISE.

PEOPLE'S TRUST IN THE CONVENTION.

AND QUESTIONS, OF COURSE, AS TO WHETHER THIS WAS FAIR BECAUSE IT WAS SO MINUTE AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE ARE TALKS TO HAVE SOME SORT OF APPEARANCE PRESUMPTIVE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE, KAMALA HARRIS COMING UP SOON.

LET'S BIT MORE TO THE CONTENT TO LYNN.

ACTUALLY, WHY DO YOU THINK PRESIDENT TRUMP EXCEPT IN THIS INVITATION.

WHAT DID HE EXPECT TO GET OUT OF THIS UP HERE?

SO HE HE DID IT IT WAS CAN IT.

I DON'T THINK IT'S A HARD ONE, AROUND NOW BECAUSE HE WASN'T RUNNING AGAINST PERSON WHO MAY BE THE SECOND BLACK PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES IN THE FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

I DON'T THINK IT WAS HARD TO FIGURE IT OUT.

IT ENDED THIS OFTEN AT THESE NATIONAL CONVENTIONS THAT THEY DO HOST CANDIDATES IN PRESIDENTIAL YEARS.

ON YOU KNOW, THEY SAY IN PROGRAMS AND VIDE SILENT ON SOLID SOUTH, YOU KNOW, SUBJECT TO CONFIRMATION.

THE SCHEDULES.

SO THE THE REASON HE CAME, THOUGH, SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SIGNAL TO HIMSELF THAT YOU COME TO ACHIEVE SOMETHING.

AND THAT IS TO EITHER TO GET MORE VOTES.

AND YOU WOULD HAVE HAD HAD YOU COME AND PROBABLY OUR AUDIENCE IS KIND OF FAMILIAR.

YOU TELL ME IF YOU WANT TO GET INTO IT THAT THE WAY HE ACTED IN HIS CONTENTIOUS BEHAVIOR, THE THINGS HE SAID, THE ACCUSATIONS OF A VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS TURNING BLACK.

IS JUST SOMETHING THAT IS AT AS TO HOW HE SAID IT IN THE FRAME.

HE DID DID.

IT'S MORE THAN A DOG WAS SOMEWHAT.

I DON'T KNOW.

IN A STRONGER WORD.

IT'S LIKE A LION WAS SELECTED.

SAID IT IS A HUGE THING.

SO THE CALCULATION IS HIS BASE.

HIS BASE IS WITH HIM.

SO WHATEVER HIS POLITICAL AIM WAS.

HE DIDN'T ACHIEVE IT, WHICH MEANS HIS CAMPAIGN OR HIM MADE SOME MISTAKE HERE, ESPECIALLY IN THAT UNDERSTANDING THE GROUND WHIRLS THAT HE HAD HIS SOMEBODY AGREED I WANT TO GIVE OTHER FOLKS AN OPPORTUNITY TO WEIGH IN.

BUT BRIEFLY HERE, LET'S JUST HEAR WHAT THE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT.

WE HAVE THAT CLIP.

SHE WAS ALWAYS OF INDIAN HERITAGE AND SHE ONLY PROMOTING INDIAN HERITAGE.

I DIDN'T KNOW SHE WAS BLACK.

UNTIL A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO WHEN SHE HAPPENED TO TURN BLACK AND NOW SHE WANTS KNOWN BLACK.

SO I DON'T KNOW.

IS SHE INDIAN ARE ISSUED LAST YEAR'S ALL THE DOESN'T.

WELL, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE ONE OF THE INTERESTING THINGS THE TRIBUNE, ALLISON HAD A REALLY GOOD STORY TODAY ABOUT WHAT IS HIS GOAL AND ONE OF HIS MAIN GOALS.

AND BECAUSE HE KEPT REPEATING IT, HE'S BEEN TRYING TO APPEAL TO BLACK PEOPLE BY DIVIDING THEM ON THE SUBJECT OF MIGRANTS AND SAYING THE DEMOCRATS IT'S A PRETTY PRETTY NASTY BIT OF BUSINESS, YOU KNOW, BUT IT'S A VERY DIVISIVE ATTEMPT TO SAY YOU'RE MAD ABOUT THE MIGRANTS AND THIS IS THE DEMOCRATS.

AND IT'S A TALKING POINT THAT HE KEPT RETURNING TO.

I THINK THAT'S I HEARD YOU ECONOMICALLY JOBS AND ASIDE FROM ATTACKING RACHEL SCOTT, I THINK HIS FIRST SUBSTANTIVE COMMENTS WERE ABOUT THAT ISSUE AND THAT'S WHAT HE WAS GOING FOR.

AND THAT'S A THAT'S THE STRATEGY.

IT DIDN'T GET DROWNED OUT BY EVERYTHING ELSE.

I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, IN AND POLITICS, WHICH IS ABOUT ADDITION, I THINK QUESTIONING WHETHER THE BLACK WOMAN IS BLACK WAS PROBABLY NOT PRODUCTIVE FARM.

YES, IT GOT DROWNED OUT.

IT'S FAIR.

YOU WANT TO WEIGH IN AS WELL.

I JUST WANT TO SEE REALLY QUICK.

I THOUGHT WHEN HE WHEN I HEARD THAT HE WAS GOING TO ANY B J, MY INITIAL THOUGHT WAS MAKES PERFECT SENSE BECAUSE HE ACTUALLY HAS BEEN GAINING IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY PRIOR PARIS BEING ANNOUNCED AS AS THE PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE AND INTERESTING A LOT OF YOUNG BLACK PEOPLE THAT I KNOW LIKE MY SONS AND MY SON'S FRIENDS, THEY ARE.

THEY'RE NOT GOING VOTE FOR DON'T.

BUT BUT THEY STILL TALK ABOUT THEIR FRIEND.

A LOT OF THEIR FRIENDS.

ARE TRUMP SUPPORTERS.

ALL I HAVE A SON WHO'S WHO'S THAT?

HOWARD, WHO SAID THAT THERE GROUPS OF TRUMP SUPPORTERS AND HOWARD AND I THOUGHT LIKE, OF COURSE, HE WANTS TO GO AND SORT OF TALK TO THAT GROUP.

NOW HE PROBABLY WENT AND TURNED THEM OFF ACTUALLY SHOWED SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CONSIDERING VOTING FOR HIM RECONSIDERING.

SO HE PROBABLY DID THE ADDISON.

BUT I DO THINK THAT IT'S IT WAS VERY STRATEGIC BECAUSE HE SAW OPENING.

HE KNOWS HE HAS SOME SUPPORT IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY THAT HE DIDN'T HAVE.

I THINK ONLY 8% OF BUT PEOPLE VOTED FOR HIM BEFORE.

I THINK HE SEES THAT HE S OPENING, BUT HE SAW THIS NUMBER.

EVERYTHING.

CHANGE FROM BIDEN DROPPED OUT AND THE CALCULATION YOU'RE NOT INSTEAD OF RUNNING AGAINST AN 81 YEAR-OLD WHITE MAN WHO HAS, YOU KNOW, THAT THAT WAS SEEN ONE, IT'S OVER AND HE COULDN'T HAVE IT SMART ENOUGH TO TAKE INTO WHAT WE'RE ALL SAYING TO DO SOMETHING TO GET OUT OF THAT PROGRAM, MORE VOTES RATHER UNLESS SOMETHING GREAT.

YOU BRING UP A GREAT POINT.

THE IDEA OF POLITICS BEING ADDITION BECAUSE YES, TRUMP CAN SAY THAT HE CAME TO IN A B J.

AND KAMALA HARRIS DID NOT.

THAT IS WHERE THE BUCK STOPS BECAUSE WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT A PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATION TRYING TO HEAL THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY, THE TRUMP PARTY WITH BLACK PEOPLE COMING IN TO WHAT IS A FAMILY REUNION FOR BLACK JOURNALISTS AND INSULTING A MODERATOR INITIALLY.

TO START AT THAT LEVEL AND AT THE ENERGY AND MAINTAIN IT THROUGHOUT NOTHING PRODUCTIVE CAN BE SOUGHT.

BUT THERE'S MORE TO THAT STORY.

PRESIDENT BIDEN HAD AGREED TO COME.

IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN PRODUCTIVE IF IF THE ORGANIZERS HAD LEFT OUT, THAT MEAN WHEN YOU.

TALK ABOUT PRESIDENTIAL STAFF VICE PRESIDENT.

IT'S NEVER FOR SURE UNTIL THE DAY THEY SAY THEY'RE COMING.

BUT HE HAD BEEN SLATED TO COME SO.

WHEN HE STOPPED BEING AND GET CONTENDER IT CHANGE AND PARIS IS OFF AND RUNNING AND WHAT WAS A DAY 8?

ALRIGHT CAMPAIGN, THANKS SO MUCH.

MORE TO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE FACT THAT THEY HAD IN THE BEGINNING AT THIS POINT WITH EVERYTHING HAPPENING.

SO LAST MINUTE, YEAH, KAMALA HARRIS, LESS THAN 2 WEEKS OF BEING THE PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE.

EVERY DAY MEANS SO MUCH MORE TO HER THAN DONALD TRUMP WHO SERVED 4 YEARS IN OFFICE HAD FOR ALMOST 4 YEARS OFF FOR HIM NOW COM.

FOR KAMALA HARRIS TO MAKE THAT JOURNEY AT THIS TO RESCHEDULE ITS SO MUCH MORE ON THE DAY OF SHE'LL JACKSON'S ON THE DAY THAT SHE WAS SAYING THE SAME PEOPLE ARE IN A BIT BEFORE.

IT PUT BEING THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE I THINK A LOT OF ON FURTHER DISCUSSION AMONGST THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF BLACK JOURNALISTS ABOUT HOW HOW THIS IS HANDLED IN.

WE'LL SEE THE RAMIFICATIONS, BY THE GOING FORWARD OF THE CAMPAIGN POINT HERE IS THAT SIGMA GAMMA RHO.

AND HOUSTON AND SURE ALREADY.

I MEAN, SHOUT GIVEN.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT BASE CONSTITUENCIES AND A B J. SIGMA GAMMA RHO ONE OF THE BIG.

85 MADE WHAT?

THAT'S WHAT IT'S THE DIVINE 9 RIGHT IT'S IT'S CHOICE.

IS YOU HAVE A WINDOW AND TO ALL THE INVITATIONS, A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES RECEIVE.

I CAN'T IMAGINE.

BUT OPEN WANT TO COME ON THIS PROGRAM ANY OLD TIME.

IF HAPPEN TO LISTENING PRESIDENT TRUMP OR VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS.

JUST WHEN BRIEFLY, YOU KNOW, IT COULD US, AS YOU MENTIONED, THERE'S A LITTLE BIT, BUT I WANT TO GET INTO THAT.

HOW MUCH HAS THE DYNAMIC OF THE RACE CHANGED SINCE GOT BEHIND HARRIS INSTEAD OF FROM GLOOM TO BLOOM?

YES, YOU CAME IN WITH THAT $0.03 TREPIDATION TO ELATION.

I COULD JUST DO THIS.

THE POINT IS THAT YOU YOU HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO CALM KIND OF WAKE AND NOW YOU'RE COMING TO A WEDDING.

THAT'S HOW FAST THINGS CHANGED.

I NEVER DOUBTED FOR A MINUTE THAT BIDEN DROPPED OUT, YOU HARRIS WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE IT WAS INSANE TO THINK ANYTHING ELSE WOULD HAPPEN.

BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING IS TRULY SOMETHING THAT FOR DOES A NICE TO COVER POLITICS.

REMARKABLE TO SEE AS TO THE WAR POLITICAL WORK SPEED THAT IT HAS BEEN PUT TOGETHER NOW SHE HAS A LOT OF TIME, BUT IT NOT ONLY FALL INTO PLACE, BUT I THOUGHT WHEN I COVERED OBAMA EXTENSIVELY IN A WAY THAT THIS WAS A ONE-OFF.

THAT NO ONE COULD KIND OF TAKE THEM OUT OF THAT ENERGY ESTE.

YES, BUT SHE IS A PHENOMENAL SPEAKER.

WHAT YOU ALWAYS WAS PEOPLE, I THINK THIS TERM UNFAIRLY, SHE IS WHO HE IS.

BUT NOW THAT SHE UNFETTERED AND SHE'S THE YOU COULD SEE IT.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT HER SPEECHES WHEN YOU LOOK AT HER EULOGY FOR SHEILA, LATE REPRESENTIVE, CHILLY IN HOUSTON, WHO, BY THE WAY, IS THE MOTHER OF JASON LEE, A TOP ADVISER IN CITY HALL TO MAYOR BRANDON JOHNSON.

SHE DOES THE STAFF THAT THESE MASTER OR RAIDERS DO.

SHE SAYS A LOT WHEN SHE SAYS NOTHING.

WITH THE CROWD KNOWS WHERE SHE'S GOING THEN ACTUALLY KIND OF POWERFUL SPEAKER.

SHE'S I'M SURE WE'LL SEE MORE.

NOT YOU KNOW, THE MONEY, THE VOLUNTEERS, EVERY DATA POINT YOU USE AND POLITICS SHE HAS MET AND EXCEEDED IN A WEEK.

AND THAT IS A STUNNING THING TO AND THAT WILL BE REFLECTED THE CONVENTION, WHICH HAS BEEN RETOOLED TO BE HER CONVENTION.

AND WE KNOW BIDEN WILL BE SPEAKER ON THE FIRST NIGHT, SORT OF GET THAT APPRECIATION AND THEN MOVED TO THE FUTURE.

A DECISION THAT SHE HAS TO MAKE.

GREG, PRETTY MUCH COMING DOWN TO THE WIRE IS WHO'S GOING TO BE HER RUNNING MATE AND OF COURSE, IN ILLINOIS, WE CARE BECAUSE GOVERNOR JB PRITZKER IS CONTINUALLY LISTED AS ONE OF THE OPTIONS.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

WELL, YOU KNOW, THE GOVERNOR WANTS IT.

HE'S LOBBYING FOR PRETTY AGGRESSIVELY.

HE'S GOT THE UNIONS WRITING LETTERS.

HE'S GOT BUSINESS LEADERS WRITING LETTERS, A HE'S KIND OF A LONG SHOT CANDIDATE.

BUT YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT HAPPENS YOU KNOW, ALL 6 OF THEM COULD SOME PRETTY GNARLY SKELETONS THAT DON'T COME UP.

ALDERMAN DEREK CURTIS ONCE TEXTED LORI LIGHTFOOT, THE HIGHER THE LEVEL OF THE HIGHER DEVIL, WHICH IS A YOU KNOW, THINGS COME OUT MORE WHEN WHEN YOU WHEN YOU GET HIGHER.

SO I THINK THAT WILL SEE HE'S NOT THE FRONTRUNNER, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW.

YOU KNOW, WE HAVE AS GREAT NOTE AND ALL THESE LABOR LEADERS, BUSINESS LEADERS, ABORTION RIGHTS LEADERS GETTING BEHIND PRITZKER AND WRITING LETTERS TO HARRIS BASICALLY PAYING HIGHER AND SO WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS PEOPLE?

WHAT?

I THINK THEY'RE DOING IT BECAUSE HE'S A PRETTY GOOD RECORD IN ILLINOIS OF OF MEETING A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT THEY THAT THEY DOESN'T THINK I THINK MEAN, I I THINK HE'S FAIRLY POPULAR IN ILLINOIS.

DO YOU THINK IT IS?

LYNN, THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE COME OUT ALSO TAKE NOTE OF WHO HAS NOT COME UP.

OKAY.

THIS IS NOT AGAINST GOVERNOR PRITZKER.

AND GUYS, IF YOU'RE LISTENING, THIS IS NOT PERSON JUST ANALYZING SO.

THE YEAH, PEOPLE HAVE BUSINESS TO DO WITH THE STATE.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD.

CERTAINLY GRATEFUL IN AWE THE KINDS OF THINGS MOST RECENTLY EVEN THIS WEEK AND PROTECTING THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE.

IT DOESN'T HURT WHEN YOU REPRESENT SOME SPECIAL INTEREST TO COME OUT FOR PRITZKER.

OKAY.

SO AND ALSO EVERY STAKEHOLDERS FOR THESE OTHER GOVERNORS AND SENATORS.

THEY'VE PUTTING OUT STUFF TOO PRITZKER HEAD.

WE VIDEO THAT CAME OUT.

I'M JUST SAYING FOR PEOPLE WITH STAKEHOLDER SHIP TIME, IT'S IT'S BECAUSE HE'S BEEN A VERY GOOD ON ABORTION RIGHTS.

SO WHAT THING IS, MAKE SURE THE WORLD KNOWS RIGHT?

CAN.

BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO STEP ON HIS DREAMS.

AND THAT'S THAT'S THE ISSUE.

THEY'RE NOT TO STEP ON A DREAM TO CAUSE ANY WILL STEP ON THEIR DREAMS.

IN THAT ERA LEAST.

THAT IS THE CONCERN RIGHT OF IT TO PROTECT THEIR SO IT CAN BE IT CAN BE LOVE AND IT CAN CONTINUE BEEN A FAIRLY GOOD GOVERNOR FOR SOME OF THESE ISSUES HE AND SO I MEAN, THAT IS ONE REASON IF HE WAS A BAD GOVERNOR FOR SOME OF THESE ISSUES, EVEN IF THEY HAD A STAKE IN SAYING THAT HE WAS HE WAS A GOOD GUY.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO COME OUT AND SAY THAT HE SICK WITH YOU ON SARAH, BECAUSE ONE OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME OUT DOING THE OPPOSITE GRAND IS IN A LETTER, BUT IT'S A VERY PUBLIC FORUM.

YOU HAVE THE LEADER OF THE CHICAGO TEACHERS UNION, STACY DAVIS, GATES, BASICALLY HANDING HIM AS AN OPTION, TWEETING SHE KIND OF QUESTIONING WHETHER DEMOCRATS WOULD WANT SOMEBODY ON THE TICKET WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR, QUOTE, CONTINUING THE TRADITION OF DENYING FUNDING FOR BLACK BROWN WORKING CLASS IMMIGRANT KIDS IN ILLINOIS'S LARGEST SCHOOL DISTRICT.

SO IS THIS A FAIR IT WE HAD THE CTU GOING AFTER SO PUBLICLY, THE GOVERNOR?

WELL, THE CTU NEED TO ENEMIES RIGHT NOW.

THERE ARE CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS AND THEY REALLY DO NEED AN ENEMY.

WELL, BECAUSE THEY NEED SOMEBODY TO WHEN THEY WHEN THEY DON'T GET WHAT THEY WANT IN THEIR CONTRACT, THEY NEED SOMEBODY TO TO POINT THE FINGER AT.

I MEAN, THAT'S BUT ALSO, YOU I THINK THAT THEY THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO GET MORE OUT OF THE PRITZKER THEY THEY SAY LOW KEY.

HE HAS THE LEGISLATURE.

HE'S THE GOVERNOR.

HE'S SUPPOSED TO PROGRESSIVE.

WHY IS STILL THE EDUCATION FORMULA MAD AT THE LEVEL OF ADEQUATE YEAR WAS GETTING THERE FASTER.

WHAT IS GOING ON HERE WHEN WE HAVE SOMEBODY WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON OUR SIDE WHO IS NOT GETTING US THERE MEAN, YES, THE MONEY THAT HAS GONE TO EDUCATION INCREASED UNDER PRITZKER BUT IS NOT INCREASE ANY MORE THAN THE RATE THAT INCREASED PREPRINT PRITZKER.

SO YOU KNOW THAT THEY ARE QUESTIONING THAT.

AND RIGHT NOW THEY'RE IN THE PATRICK NEGOTIATIONS AND THEY NEED BONNIE.

GREG, BRIEFLY, IS THIS STEP THAT COULD BACKFIRE ON THE CTU?

OF YOU KNOW, THEY THEY THEY NEED HIM FOR SCHOOLS, FUNDING THE IN FOR THE BEAR STADIUM.

THEY NEED HIM FOR ALL SORTS OF THINGS LEFT AND RIGHT AND THAT RELATIONSHIP IS IS NOT A GOOD RELATIONSHIP, BUT THIS TIME AND IT'S A AND, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE THE SEAT.

HE REMEMBERS THAT HE HASN'T BEEN HELPED FUND SOME THINGS THEY WANTED.

AND HE'S GOING TO REMEMBER THAT THEY TRASHED HIM IS IN ON THE NATIONAL STAGE.

I WANT TO MOVE ON.

WE GOT ABOUT 5 MINUTES LEFT AND VERY MUCH WANT TO FOCUS ON THE ISSUE OF SONYA MASSEY, A DOWNSTATE SHERIFF'S DEPUTY WAS FAIRLY QUICKLY CHARGED WITH HER MURDER, BUT WE HAVE LEARNED TO THE DAY LEADING UP TO THIS INCIDENT THAT HER MOTHER CALLED 9-1-1 FOR HELP.

SUSPECTING DAUGHTER WAS HAVING A MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE.

AND ON THAT CALL, SHE LITERALLY ASKED THE DISPATCHER TO NOT SEND COMBAT OF PREJUDICE POLICE MEN AND SAYING THAT PLEASE DON'T HURT MY DAUGHTER AND SCARED OF POLICE.

PLEASE.

NOW CORRECT.

WHAT THAT?

WHAT IS KNOWING THAT SAY ABOUT THIS WELL, IT'S YOU KNOW, THE THE MASSEY KILLING IS ONE OF THE MOST DISGUSTING ACTS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT I'VE SEEN.

I THINK THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT THEMSELVES THIS ABOUT THAT.

SO IT'S NOT LIKE A ANTI-POLICE THING.

IT IS A PRETTY PRETTY BAD ONE.

AND, YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY SHOWED UP AND ARE SEEING THEY WERE ASKING ABOUT HER MENTAL THING, KNEW THAT SHE WASN'T NECESSARILY THEY KNEW THAT SHE HAS SOME CHALLENGES AND SHE WEIGHS LIKE 95 POUNDS.

SHE'S A TINY OLD LADY.

AND AND IT'S JUST IT'S JUST A DISGRACE.

YOUNG LADY.

I THINK ONLY 36, WE'RE 30 HERE ALREADY HURT.

IT'S REALLY HARD TO WITH LET'S HEAR FROM SOMEBODY ELSE WHO CAME IN TOWN OR HAVE BEEN RALLIES NATIONWIDE, INCLUDING IN CHICAGO, MESSY FAMILY ATTORNEY BEN CRUMP WAS PRESENT AS WELL AS CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER, REVEREND AL SHARPTON.

MEMBERS OF MASSEY'S FAMILY AND SHARPTON SAID, YOU KNOW, WHEN POLICE TO STOP SOMEONE, THE FIRST THING THAT THEY DO IS CHECK THE INDIVIDUAL'S RECORD.

HE SAYS WHY SHOULD IT BE ANY DIFFERENT IN THE REVERSE?

SWITCH $0.03?

IF YOU'VE ADDED ONE PRECEPT, WHY WOULD WE THINK ALL OF A YOU HAD SOME KIND OF DAMASCUS ROW?

AFTER SUCH A IN ANOTHER JUST A BAD COP COP.

SO WHAT IS YOUR REACTION TO THAT?

AND I WILL ALSO PUT THAT QUESTION TO YOU.

WHAT IS THE HOLDUP IN A DATABASE OF BAD COPS?

LAST WEEK?

I WAS HERE AND YOU THANK YOU SO I REST WE SPOKE ABOUT THE NEED TO REALLY UNDERSTAND BECAUSE THINKING ABOUT.

HOW OFFICER GRAYSON IN THE 6 YEARS HAS FOR YEARS HE HELPED 6 DIFFERENT POSITIONS.

AND FOR ANYONE, THAT'S WAS IT LIKE IT IS MOVING WAS BECAUSE HE HAD ISSUES.

RIGHT?

AND THEN FOR ANYONE IS HIRING FOR ANY JOB.

THAT'S A RED FLAG.

WHEN YOU HAVE SOMEONE BOUNCING AROUND, THEY'VE HAD MORE JOBS ON YEARS THAT SHOULD RAISE RED FLAGS.

BUT FOR THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, IT AND THAT'S CONCERNING.

THAT IS REALLY CONCERNING BECAUSE ALSO HAVING 2 DUIS WITHIN A YEAR LEADING TO A PREMATURE, A DISMISSAL FROM THE MILITARY.

THESE ARE THINGS THAT SHOULD BE NOTED.

AND I JUST DEPARTMENT, MICHAEL, OR SHOULD THIS BE SYSTEM A POLICY IN PLACE THAT THAT IS PREVENTED FROM HAPPENING?

THIS IS SOMETHING AMERICANS SHOULD ADDRESS AND WHEN IT COMES TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AND ALL AGENCIES, THESE TYPE OF THINGS SHOULD COME UP BECAUSE ULTIMATELY THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO WE ARE TRUSTING ENFORCE LAWS AND WE HAVE A PSYCH EVALUATION THAT SAYING THAT, QUOTE, GRAYSON KNOWS HE CAN MOVE TOO FAST THAT IT NEEDS TO SLOW DOWN TO MAKE GOOD DECISIONS.

I READ THAT AS SOMEONE WHO'S IMPULSE.

AND AS SOMEONE WHO'S MOVING TOO FAST TO THINK THROUGH THEIR DECISIONS, NO MATTER WHAT TRAINING YOU GET THEM, IS THAT THE PERSON YOU WANT TO TRUST TO ENFORCE THE LAW AND HAVE PEOPLE'S LIVES LITERALLY IN THEIR TO BE ARMED WITH A GUN.

MIGHT THIS LEAD TO NATIONAL REFORM?

TOO SOON TO TELL?

BUT BOTH HARRIS AND BIDEN PUT OUT STATEMENTS DEPARTING MURDER AND ALSO SHARPTON, BY THE WAY, CALLING ON THIS TO BE PART OF THE PLATFORM AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION AND SAYING THAT BOTH TRUMP AND HARRIS, SHOULD THERE BE A DEBATE NEED TO BRING THIS UP?

NEED TO TALK ABOUT FOR TO BE TALKING THIS KIND OF VIOLENCE WILL COME YOU KNOW, IT MAKES ME THINK A LITTLE BIT MY COLLEAGUE A PLUS, HE'S DONE A LOT OF REPORTING EXTREMISTS IN THE CHICAGO POLICE DEPARTMENT AND HOW THERE'S BEEN VERY LITTLE REACTION.

THEY WERE PUT ON A DO NOT HIRE LIST.

THEY WERE KEPT IN THEIR JOBS AND YOU KNOW, IT.

ITS LIKE THAT THOUGHT THAT THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE AVOWED RACES THAT ARE GOING IN 2 COMMUNITY.

I MEAN, YOU KNOW, THIS IS THIS IS SORT OF LIKE THE ROOT OF IT THAT PEOPLE REALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT.

BUT I MEAN, BUT REALLY BRINGS HOME WHEN YOU HAVE A MOTHER OF SOMEBODY SAYING I'M SCARED OF THE POLICE AND THE VERY NEXT DAY MEMBER OF LAW ENFORCEMENT KILL HER DAUGHTER.

YEAH.

RIGHT THERE.

I'M GOING TO END IT ON DON'T BECAUSE WE'RE OUT OF TIME BUT WANT TO GIVE APPRECIATION TO OUR PANEL TODAY.

THAT INCLUDES LYNN SWEET, GREGORY PRATT, LIKE ELECT TRUMP AND SARAH HART.

WE WILL BE BACK TO WRAP THINGS UP JUST RIGHT AFTER THIS.
