question:
And there's one more story from the White House we want to focus on now. Earlier in the week  we learned that the president has asked the Pentagon to look into staging a military parade. It seems intended as a celebration of the military and a demonstration of military might. So we thought  who better to ask about this than the people who served in uniform and whose service is being honored? And where better to talk about this than in the Barbershop  because that's where we talk to interesting folks about what's in the news and what's on their mind? So joining us today is  Jas Boothe .  She  served for 16 years in the Army and the Army Reserves.  She  served in Kosovo  among other assignments. As  she  prepared to deploy for Operation Iraqi Freedom  though   she  was diagnosed with cancer.  She  was eventually discharged. And  she  now runs Final Salute Inc. That's an organization that helps homeless women veterans  as  she  once was.  She 's also the mother of a son serving in the Air Force and is the wife of a former Marine. Major  thank you so much for speaking with us.
PLENZLER: Yeah  I have concerns mostly around the intent and the impact of the event  plus the cost. I agree with  Jas  on that. And  you know  our national military culture  we have parades where we roll out the active duty when it's a victory parade. And the war in Afghanistan is still going on. And the war in Iraq and Syria is still going on. So  I mean  we're nowhere near the end of those two conflicts. And it may go on for some years now.
MARTIN: And what about that   Jas ? I mean  one of the things that was striking to me is that a number of the people talking about this  particularly some of the millennial era - millenniums  millennials  rather - who have been - who are very active on social media  and one of their arguments was that this kind of conjures up the image of authoritarian  you know  governments like  you know  North Korea. You know  obviously  North Korea  that these huge displays of might are kind of a signature - Venezuela  Russia. I'm going to ask you the same thing - what Sherman's point is. What if - what about something that says  I respect and appreciate you?
MARTIN: OK. Well  as we get closer  we'll call you back and see how you all feel then. That's Sherman Gillums Jr.  Marine veteran  chief strategy officer for American Veterans  AMVETS. Joe Plenzler  another Marine veteran  director of media for The American Legion. Jas Boothe  former veteran  founder of Final Salute. We want to emphasize they're all speaking for themselves. But thank you all so much for coming. And  if I may - and I understand it's controversial - thank you for your service.

question:
UPDATE (10:23 pm): With 99.61% of precincts reporting  just for the record:  Ralph Northam  defeated âEnron Edâ Gillespie and  his  despicable  disgraceful  Trumpist campaign from hell by 9 points (53.9%-44.95%); Justin Fairfax defeated Jill âGovernment-Forced  Mandatory Transvaginal Ultrasoundsâ Vogel by 5.4 points (52.7%-47.3%); and Mark Herring was reelected as AG over John âNot THAT John Adamsâ Adams by 6.5 points (53.2%-46.7%). An absolute trouncing  smackdown  demolition  whatever else you want to call it  and itâs largely thanks to the Orange Gropenfuhrer and his cowardly Republican lackeys and bootlicker (Paul Ryan  Mitch McConnell  etc.). So howâs that all working out for you  a**holes? It will be VERY interesting to see how Congressional Republicans process this one  whether they change their deplorable behavior  or whether they prefer to suffer the same fate in November 2018 as their Virginia brethren just suffered in November 2017. They can start by ditching their insane  extremist policy agenda â tax cuts for the rich  gutting the Endangered Species Act  you name it. Also  a bunch of them  such as our own Bob BADlatte  might really want to âspend more time with their familiesâ and take that well-earned retirement. Just sayinââ¦
UPDATE (8:30 pm): With 73% of precincts reporting  itâs now  Northam  by 6 points; Fairfax 51%-Vogel 49% and Herring 52%-Adams 48%. Those leads should only widen as the night goes by. As for the House of Delegates  Wendy Gooditis (D) continues to lead Del. Randy Minchew (R) in HD-10  12 599-10 426  with 24/30 precincts reporting. Chris Hurst (D) leads Del. Joseph Yost (R) 7 507-4 683 in HD-12 with 20/35 precincts reporting. In HD-21  with 15/20 precincts reporting  itâs Kelly Fowler (D) 9 614-Del. Ron Villaneuva (R) 8 348.
UPDATE (8:22 pm): With 66.6% of precincts reporting   Ralph Northam  has padded  his  lead over race-baiting âEnron Edâ to 5 points. For LG  itâs Justin Fairfax 50.69%-Jill Vogel 49.24%; for AG  itâs Mark Herring 51.28%-Adams 48.65%. As for the House of Delegates  Ben Tribbett tweets  âHala Ayala has defeated Rich Anderson for 8th Democratic pickup of the night.â And several other pickup possibilities are out there â amazing.
UPDATE (8:14 pm): Nate Cohn tweets  â Ralph Northam  is the projected winner in Virginia  according to the AP.  He  is on track to win by a decisive  8 point margin  according to our estimates.â Congratulations to Governor-elect Northam!

UPDATE (8:03 pm): With 46% of precincts reporting  itâs Northam 551 551-Gillespie 508 996; Fairfax 533 310-Vogel 525 062; Herring 536 797-Adams 520 442. Nate Cohn reports  âMassive turnout. Running 8 percent higher ahead of our estimates  which were 8 percent ahead of 13! Could be heading for nearly 2.7 million votes.â Cohn adds  âItâs  Northam âs night â and âOur best guess is that  Mr. Northam  is currently on track to win the election.â
UPDATE (7:30 pm): With 287 precincts reporting  itâs Gillespie 49.87%-Northam 49.05%; Vogel 52.02%-Fairfax 47.92%; Adams 51.54%- Herring 48.41%. Looks like Chesterfield County went by a slim margin (49.90%-48.95%) to Gillespie; compare to 49%-41% Cooch four years ago. That doesnât bode well at all for Gillespie. According to Nate Cohn of the NY Times  âAt this stage  it is fair to say that  Northam  has the advantage. Not enough information to make a call  though.â His model has Northam +4.2 points.
UPDATE (7:22 pm): With 69 of 2 566 precincts reporting  itâs Ralph Northam 50.05%- Ed Gillespie 48.82%; Jill Vogel 50.35%-Justin Fairfax 49.59%; and John Adams 50.46%-Mark Herring 49.47%.
UPDATE (7:14 pm): CNN exit poll info â âVote among women in Virginia via @ CNN exit polls â> 2017:  Northam  +19 2016: Clinton +17 2014: Warner +12 2013: McAuliffe +9â³ Also  from @alexhoneker: âCNN Exit Poll   VIRGINIA Race: White (68%): 59-40 Gillespie Black (20%): 86-13 Northam Hispanic (6%): 62-35 Northam Education: College grad (59%): 58-41 Northam Non-college grad (41%): 55-43 Gillespieâ @owillis âexit has  northam  at 40% w white voters. hrc had 35%  mcauliffe had 36%â @BenWessel â Prelim exits have @ RalphNortham winning an eye-popping 66% of # youthvote (under-30). Literally same % that Obama got in 2008. So proud of @ NextGenAmericaâs whole team.â
3) The latest polling heading into election day can be seen here:  Northam  up 9 points in Quinnipiac Universityâs final poll;  Northam  up 5 points in Foxâs and the Washington Post/Schar Schoolâs final poll;  Northam  up 6 points in CNUâs final poll; tied in Rasmussen and Roanoke College final polls  etc. Clearly  someoneâs going to be very wrong here and others are going to be very right. Stay tunedâ¦

question:
Burge was not in court  but  Jackie Wilson   wearing a gray-and-black striped jumpsuit  repeatedly picked up a black-and-white picture of the former officer as  he  emphatically and sometimes tearfully alleged that officers beat  him   kicked  him  in the groin  put a gun in  his  mouth and gave  him  electric shocks. Believing  he  would be killed if  he  didnât confess   Wilson  said   he  told officers  he  was present when  his  brother Andrew shot and killed officers Richard OâBrien and William Fahey in February 1982.
 Wilson   now 57  said he would have confessed to shooting the president if the detectives had asked him. âI told them  âGame over â¦ whatever you want me to say  Iâm gonna say it â â he said. âI wanted it to stop.â
Wednesdayâs hearing  part of  Wilson âs attempt to win a new trial  illustrates the broad and long-lasting consequences of the Burge scandal. The all-day hearing barely touched on  Wilsonâs  guilt or innocence  instead turning on the question of whether  his  confession was coerced.  Wilson âs lawyers argue that  he  should be granted a new trial with the confession suppressed  which could make it difficult for prosecutors to retry  him .
 Wilsonâs  bid is based in part on evidence that Burge or his subordinates tortured other men  including his late brother  Andrew  who was found by doctors to have numerous injuries after his interrogation.  Jackie Wilson âs attorney  Flint Taylor  described a âmountain of evidenceâ of torture by officers including Burge  who was never prosecuted for torture but was convicted in 2010 of lying about the abuse of suspects.
In a deposition related to the  Wilson  case  Taylor said  Burge invoked his Fifth Amendment right to not incriminate himself. On Wednesday  a former stateâs attorney involved in the case  Lawrence Hyman  did the same.
Michael OâRourke  a private attorney working as a special prosecutor  acknowledged abusive practices by officers in other cases but denied that  Jackie Wilson  was harmed or coerced into confessing. OâRourke pointed to photos of  Wilson  taken after his interrogation that showed no visible injuries.
âItâs almost like he wants to metamorphosize into  Andrew Wilson  â OâRourke said. âThis case is not  Andrew Wilson .â
Faheyâs brother  Mike  who sat through the hearing alongside his sister  said he does not believe  Jackie Wilson  was abused. He said he believes  Wilson  committed the crime and is just echoing other abuse allegations against Burge and  his  men.
 Wilson âs case is central to a saga that continues some three decades after allegations of torture against Burge and his âmidnight crewâ burst into public view.
Scores of African-American men have accused Burge  who is white  and his colleagues of torturing or abusing them during the 1970s and 1980s on the South Side. The allegations include claims similar to those  Wilson  makes; officers have been accused of using electric shocks to the genitals of suspects and forcing them to play Russian roulette  among other things.
Wednesdayâs hearing on the  Wilson  case was mandated by the Illinois Torture Inquiry and Relief Commission  which found âcredible evidenceâ that  Wilson  was tortured after  his  arrest in 1982  though the commission noted discrepancies in  his  statements over the years.
Prosecutors said  Wilson  looked on as  his  brother  Andrew  grabbed Fahey's gun and shot him in the head. In his confession   Jackie Wilson  said that after he shouted that O'Brien was alive and moving  his brother shot the officer again as he lay wounded on the ground.
 Andrew Wilson  also confessed and also alleged  his  confession was coerced through torture.  He  was found by doctors after  his  arrest to have numerous cuts  bruises and burns.
On the stand Wednesday   Jackie Wilson  said  he  was viciously abused by officers including Burge after  his  arrival at a South Side police station.  Wilson   occasionally weeping  said  his  denials of knowledge of the crime were met by escalating abuse.  He  said officers hit  him  with a phone book and put a gun in  his  mouth before Burge brought in an electrical device police used to shock  him .
After OâRourke raised an objection to a question involving the word âtorture  â Wilson  pointed at  him  and angrily asked  âWhat would you call it?â
