tammy bruce and desirae. tammy, i come to you first for your top line thoughts. >> well, it was a very dramatic video. these days everyone has their cameras, thank goodness in the george floyd situation and here with a body camera. what is shocking about that video is what you see most often being shown and highlighted because it shows the knife more clearly is when the young woman has it down. but as that video shows, she was long enough able to then swing it up and was in the process of coming down and that's when she got shot. it is a shocking framework. the parents, loved ones of the woman in pink who was able to escape are probably grateful and the media, if they are going especially with something so dramatic, have a responsibility especially in today's day to show context. it is imperative. nbc also was the network that had edited the zimmerman 911 call about trevon martin and made it seem as though he was calling out race when in fact the 911 operator asked him about race. so this is a pattern we see

tammy, there's a lot of this about. i see brigham and women's hospital in boston is planning to offer preferential health care based on race. are you looking forward to this new regime? >> yes. we see this flowing out kind of naturally like it was a plan. fact of the matter is that the cdc is not just now ruining its brand. it started in 1932 and probably before. but there's a reason why certain americans don't trust the big government and the medical establishment. in 1932 the tuskegee experiments began where the cdc told black men in alabama that they were giving them free health care. and what they were doing them was not treating them for syphilis as they watched for 40 years what it would do to the human body. it was a human experiment. it was obscene. and it went from 1932 to 1972. people wonder why the black community in this country doesn't trust the government. now you've got the cdc, federal health care saying, oh, we're coming back to help you again. we're gonna spend covid-19 funds to create racial equity in

last word to you, tammy, before my held explodes. >> yes. and, look, this comes from people coming out of the academy, moving into employee positions at companies. but we have to find out is this an excuse for woke leadership to do this and to be involved with politics and to embrace the leftism in washington and maybe get a financial benefit? american consumers are going to be the final word on this. ask hollywood what the american consumer thinks and if it's been helpful to them and the ratings for all of their congratulatory shows. it has not been helpful. consumers will have the final say, and let's make sure that they feel that when it comes to how we respond to corporations whether it's the major league baseball or delta or anyone else, that we are the ones they will answer to, not the occasional wok leftist who doesn't have -- woke leftist who doesn't have anyone in mind. stuart: it's always a pleasure, tammy.

let's bring in tammy bruce to get her thoughts. tammy, good morning. what do you make of covid passports? good idea or not? >> good morning. ashley: good morning. >> horrible idea. a remarkably bad idea. this is not just an imposition or irritating. this is a dynamic, you want to talk about trojan horses we talk about that when it comes to biden's tax plan, this is something once again not what it appears to be. i wrote a column about this in "the washington times" a couple weeks ago. this is a dynamic that eliminates individual freedom. keep in mind with the vaccine rates we're going at which is terrific, then with the the concomitant herd immunity, the mass majority of americans will be fine. there will be some who won't take the vaccine or can't take the vaccine. like me, i'm allergic to the flu shot. i never had a flu shot in my life. in the flu season i take special care knowing i might be at risk. but everyone else is getting the flu shot. bottom line, there is no reason for, first of all to request a passport like that, especially internally in
