Oh, wait. That's me.
[ Chuckles ]
I missed my mark.
Hi, this is Thomas.
I'm in a fancy new housing project
for homeless veterans or formerly homeless veterans
and built as part of a series of initiatives
by the First Lady's office in the East Wing
to help out America's former soldiers.
We're just waiting for, uh, her to show up
and meet some residents here.
It's Michelle Obama. I mean --
There she is.
Hello.
Woman: Hello.
Hi. I'm just a -- Hi.
[ Patriotic music plays ]
Thomas: The White House, our nation's home office.
Through these corridors have strode some of
the most powerful men of their times,
as well as the women they were married to.
Except for Buchanan.
While the exact duties of the president
are explicitly laid out in the Constitution,
the First Lady's role is kind of up to her.
Even the East Wing office is an ad hoc mixture
of official White House staff with personnel
from various agencies attached to specific programs,
as well as outside help.
Even the First Lady's actual office in the East Wing
looks like some sort of converted dining room.
Yeah, this is her office. Nice.
Is the First Lady a big Poe, Melville,
and Twain fan or...?
I don't know.
The Obama East Wing has done a lot more
with their time in office
than pick curtains or plant flowers
in the median strips of our nation's highways.
Among Michelle Obama's biggest efforts is Joining Forces,
an initiative she started in 2011
to address veterans' issues.
This is the moment that we've been working toward
for such a very long time
as we launch this unprecedented national campaign
to honor and support
our incredible military families.
We're calling it Joining Forces. Pretty good.
Thomas: Joining Forces incorporated a number of different programs,
including the media blitz you may have noticed
the First Lady on in the last year.
The First Lady starred in an episode of "NCIS."
Thomas: Oh. Which was pretty awesome
because we --
we kind of talked with the entertainment business
about really incorporating
storylines about military families
in their kind of day-to-day circles.
Oh, okay. You have to tell someone's story
so they can understand why it's important.
Thomas: Which I guess is what I'm doing here in the White House.
The East Wing reached out to us,
a television show called "Balls Deep,"
to help them with an event they're planning
to celebrate the fifth anniversary
of the overall initiative, as well as spotlight the success
of one of its most ambitious challenges --
to end veteran homelessness.
Specifically, they asked me,
a guy whose Twitter name is @Babyballs69,
to find a veteran that Joining Forces
has helped out of homelessness the First Lady can talk to
about their experience with the program
and then invite to the White House
to speak at the summit they're having.
And I said yes.
So, I guess, now I am working for them.
Or her, Michelle Obama.

It's like the new digital camo the Army started doing.

I haven't seen you in a while.

Yep.
But they told me I was going to Vietnam.
So I said, "Forget this."
So I went to the Navy person, "Can you get me in here?"
He said, "Yeah."
Yep.

I went to Vietnam.

So what you here for? The free food?
Why is nobody drinking coffee?
They didn't have any ready when we got here.
The first thing we wanted was some coffee,
but they didn't have any ready.
Still going. I'm gonna check on that.
Who all wants coffee? How many coffees?
Milk, sugar, black?
Most of these vets are moving into the Conway Residence,
which is a permanent housing complex up by the Capitol,
sort of the flagship test model
for Joining Forces' anti-homelessness efforts.
It's taken a lot of work by numerous agencies
and outside groups to get it built
and occupied before the end of this administration.
Now with the First Lady coming to visit,
that's kind of really put the hustle on moving folks in.
Thomas: Are you moving to one of the --
I'm moving to North Capitol.

Are you a veteran, sir? I'm a veteran, yes.
Are you? Mm-hmm.
So we're at, uh, Union Station, train station in D.C.
Um, Comfort and Hector, uh,
as part of their usual kind of like canvassing grounds,
they come out and look for, uh, homeless people,
find out if those homeless people are veterans,
and then, uh, try to get them enrolled in services,
either transitional housing or permanent housing
if they're up for it,
which can be tricky with people who are, you know,
either coping with mental illness
or are just, you know, simply headstrong ex-military men
run aground against lousy circumstances.
Hi. Are you guys veterans?
Thomas: While the circumstances that lead to homelessness
are often the same for vets as they are for civilians,
many veterans have issues related to their service,
which can make outreach
and housing particularly difficult.
Comfort: Are you a veteran?
Thomas: Stuff like PTSD and injuries,
which can then lead to drinking and drug problems,
as well as just the simple difficulty
of transitioning back to regular life
with all those responsibilities.
Come on.
Good morning. My name is Comfort.
I'm a social worker from the Veteran Affairs.
Are you a veteran?
How are you doing?
Have you eaten today?
Let's go to the hospital...
so you can get real care.

I see how hard it is, and your bedside manner's insane.
Mm-hmm.
You're right, you really live up to your name.
It's not good cop, bad cop, it's like good cop, vet cop.
[ Laughs ]
Many of the challenges
to helping keep vets off the streets
are things the Conway House model is intended to help fix.
Having VA case workers on site helps provide for a,
you know, quicker response, greater attention,
than a case worker making a monthly home visit.
Amanda: We'll be here. [ Chuckles ]
Roger: That's better than running up to VA. Yeah.
When I can run right downstairs to you.
Yeah. Yeah. That's the --
yeah, that's the idea. Right.
So community solutions will be here.
Property management.
These will be our offices.
Okay. Huh, not bad.
The reason the East Wing picked this place to have the, uh,
First Lady visit for her Joining Forces initiative
is it's, uh, kind of a new model of, uh,
addressing veteran homelessness.
The Conway House people just -- who run this place --
take a housing-first approach to homelessness,
where previously,
the notion was you got people into shelters,
and then you tried to address drug problems
they might have or do job training,
and you kind of made them
earn their housing on the other end.
The new approach basically is predicated
on the idea of, like, how do you get a job
and go through drug rehab and stuff like that
when you can't even be sure of where you're sleeping at night?
So solve the actual problem of homelessness,
which is home-less-ness, by putting them in a home,
and then work on the other things from there,
which is kind of, "No, duh," when you think about it.
But it took, you know, 50 years to get here.
So this Conway housing tower sort of epitomizes the new way
of thinking about that.
Instead of a nasty institutional building,
you have something that looks like
somewhere people would like to live.
Just needs to open now and have people move in.

for six years in the '60s
and then the Navy, went to Vietnam.
Did you like being in the Army and Navy?
There was times when it was enjoyable,
and there was times when it wasn't.

would they help me get there. I hate cold weather.
Yeah, me -- me, too. I'm from Chicago.
You do? I do.
I've had enough cold weather
for my whole life, growing up in Chicago.
The sooner I get to Florida, the better off I will be.
[ Laughter ]
So, how long did it take
before you were connected with the support services here?
About a month. Mm-hmm.
'Cause I didn't know what to do or where to go, you know so...
I'm always surprised at how many veterans
don't have any clue of the resources
that are available to them.
And because of folks like you, that's changing.
We were talking about how -- I think it's --
I feel like it's probably changing now,
how little contact a lot of the --
a lot of the older veterans that I've met had with the VA
before they fell on hard times.
Most of them were just unaware of what was available to them.
Prior to the VA
making a drastic transformational change,
you know, there wasn't that much engagement.
I know because I tried. Mm-hmm.
Well, one of the things that we've learned in our time
working with this community, particularly for Vietnam vets,
many didn't want to identify as veterans.
You know, because of the way
the country responded to Vietnam veterans --
which is one of the reasons why we felt we have to,
through Joining Forces,
we have to do an entire culture shift
on how we talk about our military community.
They should never be ashamed of who they are.
You know, this has been some of the most gratifying work
that I've ever done in my life.
And the work that we've done with the military community,
that's opened my eyes to
not just the challenges that this community faces,
but the greatness, the bravery,
the courage, you know, the sacrifice.
Um, which is why we have worked so hard
over these last eight years
to make sure that whatever we do,
that it's something you can feel.
That it's not just words, it's not platitudes,
but it's -- it's housing.
[ Chuckles ]
It's a real show of gratitude,

Man: Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Wendell Banks.
[ Applause ]
♪♪
[ Clears throat ] Thank you.
My name is Wendell Banks.
I was partially raised in North Carolina and New York.
I joined the Army when I was 18 years old
'cause I wanted to get away.
I entered in 1960, and there was no war at the time.
I spent six years in the Army,
and then I joined the Navy.
I was re-enlisting in the military,
but I didn't want to go in the Army
because I would go to Vietnam.
So joined the Navy. Guess what.
Two months later, I was in Vietnam.
[ Laughter ]
So, one night, I heard President Obama on TV
talking about how they were gonna help the vets,
so I decided to look into it.
And, uh, I got on a train...
and lost all my luggage.
So when I got to Union Station,
all I had was the pants I had on and about $15.
And it took me two days to realize --
"You're homeless. You have nowhere to go."
You know, there's a lot of veterans
walking around on canes or crutches
or in wheelchairs.
They need medical care for their injuries
or mental problems. [ Clears throat ]
But they all need somewhere to live first.
Me, all I needed was a house.
I wouldn't think that
organizations were helping veterans
get a house in Washington and around the country.
And I'd like to introduce the First Lady,
whose Joining Forces program has helped
all these groups help us veterans help ourselves.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Mrs. Michelle Obama.
[ Applause ]
Thank you all so much.
You all, please, please, thanks so much.
Welcome.
[ Laughter ]
Be quiet back there.
[ Laughter ]
Let me start by thanking Mr. Banks
for that wonderful introduction.
I got to meet Mr. Banks earlier today,
because he invited me over to his house.
So I thought I'd return the favor.
[ Laughter ]
And I think, as I told Mr. Banks,
his story is gonna help a lot of people,
uh, get the support
that they need and deserve, so thank you so much.
It was an honor spending time with you.
[ Applause ]
And through VA programs, we've helped house
354,000 veterans and their families.
Again, these are breathtaking accomplishments,
especially when you consider the real human stories
behind each of those numbers.
Stories like another Vietnam-era veteran
named Larry Maynor.
For 30 years, he was on the streets.
But then, Larry entered a homeless-assistance program.
He met a wonderful woman. He fell in love.
That's why I gave you those two mugs.
[ Laughter and applause ]
We are absolutely on our way to solving this problem.
And we cannot let up for a single minute.
So, while this might be my last time
coming before you as First Lady,
today isn't any kind of an ending for me.
[ Chuckles ]
We're just getting started.
Thank you all. God bless.

[ Grunts ]
You did a good job, man.
Yeah?
Tina: Thank you again for doing this.
You know, we throw these people into things
in that -- in that damned East Room,
and -- but he did a really nice job.
I'm sure it was totally nerve-wracking.
Totally. Very happy.
Very, very happy.
Thomas: So, Mr. Banks was a hit.
It's been interesting working alongside
all these different agencies and private veterans' groups,
where I'd expect a massive bureaucratic log jam,
especially at the VA,
which up until the Obama administration
had probably the worst reputation.
Surprisingly, everybody's worked really well together
and actually efficiently.
And all the various staff I've dealt with
have been energized, idealistic Young Turks,
which is I think is a direct trickle-down effect
from the leadership.
You know, it'd be so easy for the First Lady
to take a cause like this and just slap her name on it
and leave the rest to her staff.
When you see the spirit of engagement Michelle Obama
brings to Joining Forces,
from the grand stateroom speech-making level
all the way down to the work-a-day nuts and bolts
of visiting facilities and veterans like Mr. Banks,
it's infectious.
It's about the best case of lead by example
I've really been witness to, which you hope would always be
the case with the First Family of the United States,
but, well, sometimes it ain't.
Well, what are you up to today?
Are you gonna stick around, or...
As for Mr. Banks, I'm not sure
how impressed he was with the White House.
Bye.
Maybe a little, uh, more fancy than his current digs,
but you know, seat of Western power or not, truthfully,
there's no place like home.

I... am a winner.
And winners always seem to gravitate towards each other...
You like this... You like being controlled.
You like me, so I'll do whatever I want to you...
Whenever I want...
And you'll let me... Because you want it.
You don't control this... I do.
You should be very... afraid... of me.
What happens when you let your ego and pride take over your life?...
You think I haven't heard that before?...
Why'd you throw it all... all away?
Lately, you've been starting to crack...
Maybe you will figure out that you made the wrong choice...
Maybe then... you'll come crawling back to me.
You wanted to leave without me.
Yes...
I did.
You know why?
Because it's my money... I stole it.
I didn't even want to be associated with Angelico.

Matt Damon speech on Elites and NWO: "The Problem is Civil Obedience" - Duration: 5:06.
I i start from the supposition that the
world is topsy-turvy that things are all
wrong that the wrong people are in jail
and the wrong people are out of jail
that the wrong people are in power and
the wrong people are out of power that
the wealth is distributed in this
country in the world in such a way as
not simply to require a small reform but
to require a drastic reallocation of
wealth I start from the supposition that
we don't have to say too much about this
because all we have to do is think about
the state of the world today and realize
that things are all upside down if you
don't think if you just listen to TV and
read scholarly things you actually begin
to think that things are not so bad or
that just little things are wrong but
you have to get a little detached and
then come back and look at the world and
you are horrified
so we have to start from that
supposition that things are really
topsy-turvy and our topic is topsy-turvy
civil disobedience as soon as you say
the topic is civil disobedience you're
saying our problem is civil disobedience
that is not our problem
our problem is civil obedience
our problem is the numbers of people all
over the world who have obeyed the
dictates of the leaders of their
government and have gone to war and
millions have been killed because of
this obedience we recognize this for
Nazi Germany we know that the problem
there was obedience that the people
obeyed Hitler people obeyed that was
wrong they should have challenged and
they should have resisted and if we were
only there we would have showed them
even in Stalin's Russia we can
understand that people are obedient all
these heard like people remember those
bad old days when people were exploited
by feudalism everything was terrible in
the middle ages but now we have Western
civilization the rule of law the rule of
law has regular eyes and maximize the
injustice that existed before the rule
of law that is what the rule of law has
done when all the nations of the world
the rule of law is the darling of the
leaders in the plague of the people we
ought to begin to recognize this we have
to transcend these national boundaries
in our thinking Nixon and Brezhnev have
much more in common with one another
then we have with Nixon J Edgar Hoover
has far more in common with the head of
the Soviet secret police that he has
with us
it's the International dedication to law
and order that binds the leaders of all
countries in a comrade Lee bond that's
why we're always so surprised when they
get together they smile they shake hands
they smoke cigars they really like one
another no matter what they said what
we're trying to do i assume is really to
get back to the principles and aims and
spirit of the Declaration of
Independence this spirit is resistance
two illegitimate Authority and the
forces that deprive people of their life
and liberty and right to pursue
happiness and therefore under these
conditions it urges the right to alter
or abolish their current form of
government and the stress had been on
abolish but to establish the principles
of the Declaration of Independence we're
going to need to go outside the law to
stop obeying the laws that demand
killing for that allocate wealth the way
it's been done or that put people in
jail for petty technical offenses and
keep other people out of jail for
enormous crimes
my hope is that this kind of spirit will
take place not just in this country but
in other countries because they all need
it people in all countries need the
spirit of disobedience to the state
which is which is not a metaphysical
thing but a thing of force and wealth
and we need a kind of declaration of
interdependence among people in all
countries of the world who are striving
for the same thing
