BALDWIN: President Trump just wrapped up a fiery speech at the National Archives in Washington. He apparently went off on a variety of topics, including protesters, whom he referred to as radical mobs. He talked about the so-called cancel culture and "The New York Times"' Nikole Hannah-Jones and the 1619 Project, which is designed to teach children about slavery. So, let's go straight to our chief White House correspondent, Jim Acosta, with more on what exactly the president said -- Jim.</s>ACOSTA: Well, Brooke, we have seen the president turn the White House into a campaign prop. Today, he turned the National Archives into a campaign prop. He went down there with a reelection message. And that is of divide and conquer. This was not dog-whistling. This was using a bullhorn on the issue of race. He went off, as you were just saying a few moments ago, on new efforts to teach schoolchildren about the evils of slavery, the 1619 Project, and other public education efforts. And during his speech, he talked about how the left has launched what he called a vicious and violent assault on law enforcement. He said today that he will never submit to tyranny, and the left-wing rioting and mayhem, he says, that we're seeing in this country are the direct result of decades of what he called left-wing indoctrination in our schools. And so, Brooke, this is just another example of the president sort of throwing out this red meat to the conservative base. And here's a bit of what he had to say just a few moments ago:</s>TRUMP: But, as we gather this afternoon, a radical movement is attempting to demolish this treasured and precious inheritance. We can't let that happen. As I said at Mount Rushmore, which they would love to rip down, and rip it down fast -- but that's never going to happen.
