Excuse me.
Adam KellerHOST
We can operate under those principles while also dealing with just the material reality of what we've got right now.
Adam KellerHOST
Would I rather there be people like this fella in positions of leadership in police unions than some of the truly scary folks that we've encountered across this country? Sure.
Adam KellerHOST
So yeah, it was an interesting interview.
Adam KellerHOST
I'm glad you did it.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
But they were also large C conservative in that they saw a kind of alignment with Nixon, if not Wallace in this period as rejecting the civil rights movement, rejecting feminism, rejecting, uh, other, other f-forces of, of social transformation in this period.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
And th-that coalesced through the emergence of police unions that as a kind of voice for that, for that type of politics.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
So throughout the book, um...
Stuart SchraderGUEST
And oh, and, and the important point is that they aligned themselves with Republicans.
7 MINS LATER
Stuart SchraderGUEST
Yeah.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
And, and so, so they were really, um, willing to take from organized labor, literally take, uh, and, and, and not actually sign up and contribute their, their dues back into the pot.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
And it is ultimately true that, you know, to this day, there are some police unions that are part of, say, SEIU or, or AFSCME or other, other large labor unions.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
Um, but it, it, it never really took off as some people thought it might.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
But they were also large C conservative in that they saw a kind of alignment with Nixon, if not Wallace, in this period as rejecting the civil rights movement, rejecting feminism, rejecting, uh, other, other f-forces of, of social transformation in this period.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
And th-that coalesced through the emergence of police unions that-- as a kind of voice for that, for that type of politics.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
So throughout the book, um, and oh, and, and the important point is that they aligned themselves with Republicans.
Stuart SchraderGUEST
And so what happened throughout the period that I study in, in the book is that there's been this contention between- The reformist chiefs who generally align themselves with Democrats and the more uproarious, um, truculent rank and file who align themselves with Republicans.

Midnight MikeHOST
So this is what the community note says on Twitter.
Midnight MikeHOST
The man in the video is Matthew Mull, a Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Lieutenant and former head of the D.C. Police Union.
Midnight MikeHOST
He is currently on administration leave and has pled guilty to soliciting a minor.
Midnight MikeHOST
At no time has Maul been Netanyahu's chief of security.
Steve FriendHOST
In fact, they view it as us versus them so much that there's now pushback by police against Flock, not because it violates any sort of search or intrusion on privacy of the public, but because it violates their own privacy, which is a story that I've got from Como news.
Steve FriendHOST
And it's about the Washington DC Metro police union, which has raised some concerns guys, because rules for the, not for me headline DC police union alleges improper use of flock camera data by the Metro police department.
Steve FriendHOST
The D.C. Police Union, so the cops that are part of the union, they've accused the department management of improperly using a flock license plate reader system and failing to establish the safeguards.
Steve FriendHOST
Well, maybe they're interested in the public.
Steve FriendHOST
They're saying, hey, we are not comfortable.
Deb HuttonHOST
And I say great for Elvin for getting this particular endorsement.
Deb HuttonHOST
My problem, though, is I really do not like the notion of police unions getting involved in politics in this way.
Deb HuttonHOST
If they want to put issues on the table, I am OK with that.
Deb HuttonHOST
You know, when you vote October 26, think about these issues when selecting a candidate.
Deb HuttonHOST
If they want to lay out the platforms of each of the candidates for their members and get involved politically that way, I am OK with that.
Deb HuttonHOST
I mean, they have an important role to play.
Deb HuttonHOST
But I don't like when our police unions are actively endorsing an individual candidate.

Barry DHOST
Now, if you want to see where the cameras are in this country, or perhaps even in your backyard, just go to maps.theflock.org. You know, there's another interesting thing about this whole flock camera thing.
Barry DHOST
Just the other day, the D.C. Police Union filed a lawsuit against the D.C. Police.
Barry DHOST
It seems the police were using the flock cameras as a way to observe their cops to make sure that they weren't doing anything wrong.
Barry DHOST
And all of a sudden...
