0:00.0	This is Karen Hunter and welcome to the latest edition of in class with Carr and you were saying that I had to
0:18.3	send you back to school for this one.
0:20.0	Yeah, you know.
0:22.0	Yeah, you said you definitely know, you you said, you definitely did. I mean, you asked me about the Insirection Act of 1807
0:28.0	and that sent me back to, uh, to do what we used to do when I was in law school.
0:32.6	You know, that is, we're reading statutes,
0:34.8	looking at legislative history, and all I can say is
0:38.4	that, you know, it's certainly something
0:42.3	we should be very much attuned to at this moment.

1:45.0	Now they said it's federal, it's federal land and they could do whatever they want.
1:49.0	Well, he used the military police and the National Guard to do it use federal yeah federal troops but but let's be clear it's ironic that the the pastor of that church I see saying it would say that because St. John's has been used as a political
2:06.0	prop just about every sitting American president I think the first president
2:09.8	if memory serves me correctly you know where that church is that yellow church
2:12.2	right across from the White House. You're going now 16th and you get right before the White House, that block before the White House is that church on the left. Then when you get to the stoplight, you can't do nothing to make a left, you go around, you see the White House there.
