Host Roland Martin dissects accountability failures, from the GOP’s framing of healthcare negotiations to the politicization of the armed forces, receiving direct analysis from the House Minority Leader and retired military officers.

I was in the Air Force from 1970-1994. We went from racist to semi racist back to rcist racist again. Under Trump and sneaky Pete, the Military and the FBI are in trouble.

This is why I watch Roland Martin Unfiltered. He and his company actually report the news with FACTS and RECEIPTS. Mainstream does nothing but kiss the orange fascists behinds and reports nothing.

The Jasmine Crockett speech needs to be a commercial in Florida. That was epic.
