"President Donald Trump reacted to Roger Goodell’s Black Lives Matter video late on Sunday evening.

Goodell tweeted out a Black Lives Matter video on Friday night, admitting that the league had not listened enough to its black players. The commissioner tweeted out his remarks in response to a video made by several of the league’s star players, who asked for the NFL to do more to fight racial injustices.

ā€œIt has been a difficult time for our country. In particular, black people in our country,ā€ Goodell said in the video. ā€œFirst, my condolences to the families of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and all the families who have endured police brutality. We, the National Football League, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of black people. We, the National Football League, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest. We, the National Football League, believe Black Lives Matter. I personally protest with you and want to be part of the much needed change in this country."

Last week, during the Hatch Act-shattering Republican National Convention, Mother Jones' Washington DC bureau chief David Corn published a new hot-mic video of Donald Trump: a 13-minute conversation between Trump and his lawyer, captured during a break between videotaped depositions for the 2015 fraud lawsuit against Trump University.

As David wrote: Trump boasted about how his company threatened the Better Business Bureau to change the D rating it had assigned Trump University to an A. He complained about the federal judge overseeing the suit, Gonzalo Curiel, elliptically talking about how to challenge him and referring to ā€œthe Spanish thing.ā€ Trump also griped that he had been sued personally in this case, and Petrocelli had to explain to Trump that he, not just Trump University itself, was in the legal crosshairs because Trump had been accused of making false statements to promote the venture. And Petrocelli pointed out that the case was not a lock for Trump because some of Trump’s ā€œguysā€ had been ā€œsloppy.ā€

We published the original full-length source video as well a shorter video that highlights the most revealing moments from the recording. But The Internet asked for more.

Readers and commenters asked for a full transcript and even more context. (2,000 words isn't enough?) So we did one better: We had David himself sit down and talk us through the entire video, pausing at critical moments to provide expert context and commentary. In a sense, this is our newsroom's first "reaction video."

So sit back. Wind your wristwatch. Fix your hair just so. And take in our full-length breakdown of a video that reveals how our current president conducted his private business when he thought the cameras weren't rolling.
