Robby and Lindsey react to the Patriot Front white nationalists marching through DC on Saturday, as some have criticized the Trump administration's response.
@robbysoave: “I have no desire to defend people who engage in violence… But a not insignificant amount of so-called ‘right wing white nationalist advocacy’ was directed by left wing groups.”
@IamLindseyG: “That is all allegations right now.”
ROBBY: “The allegation is whether it violates the law. Whether they did that is not up for debate, it’s very clearly been established.”
LINDSEY: “My point of my whole lens was that the president has made a pattern of trying to ignore the hard parts of this country’s history. And he needs to address them head on.”
Harvard physicist Avi Loeb sat down with Rising's @IamLindseyG to recap the Disclosure Forum in Washington, D.C., discuss why we should push for full disclosure on the subject of UAPs, national security implications and more.

Robby and Lindsey break down the latest drama at CBS News after former 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley suggested Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss should be removed.
@robbysoave: "He was clearly not willing to listen to new ideas or new management... He's not willing to innovate or pay attention to what new people have to say."
@IamLindseyG: "But several prominent journalists got fired. People that spoke out against [Weiss]."
Robby: "People that wanted to turn themselves into martyrs have gotten fired."
Lindsey and Robby debate the impact of advertisers on content at networks like CBS after 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley was fired:
@IamLindseyG: "These are people that own companies that make money that specifically would advertise towards the policies that they want."
"If the way you cover any of those businesses changes because of the relationships, that's problematic."
@robbySoave: "I take that concern very seriously... This is often an accusation that gets made against the media. I've never seen it happen. And there's no evidence of it happening here."
TMZ DC editor Jacob Wasserman tells @robbysoave and @IamLindseyG the main difference between covering celebrities in LA and covering politics in the nation's capital.
@jacob_wass: "People here want to talk a lot more... when we're on Capitol Hill whenever people are going to vote there are a dozen people at least who are always looking to say something."
