If a house divided against itself cannot stand, what then of a house paralyzed and no speaker to speak of. The new reporting on where the House Republican majority is headed next. Donald trump slapped with a gag order in the new york fraud case, the attack that prompted the judges action. What trump is forbidden to talk about. Home coming week horror, five people shot. Students sheltering in place for hours. Im john berman with sara sidner and kate bolduan, this is cnn news central. It was a house in chaos, and now a house in paralysis with no Speaker Of The House in place, no goodwill remaining at all among the various republican factions. What is going to happen in the House Of Representatives is more uncertain now than ever. After the historic vote to oust Kevin Mccarthy, the position of second in line to the presidency is now vacant. The House Republican majority is in such turmoil that they have thrown in the towel for the week, sending members home until tuesday next week. The man who single handedly led this charge binto the abyss, mat gaetz. The only unifying message amongst most republicans this morning is that he should be held accountable. But what does that look like . Caught up in all of this, you remember. You dont need reminding, taxpayer dollars and any concept of a functioning legislative branch. Manu raju is back at it on the hill for us this morning. Whats next . Whats happening . Reporter yeah, right now behind the scenes, theres a debate about how they can Pick Up The Pieces here after yesterdays tumultuous and historic move to oust the Speaker Of The House for the first time in american history, but now the republicans are trying to figure out who will lead them out of the abyss and who can help Pick Up The Pieces and how they can actually legislate in this bitterly divided House Republican conference in this narrowly divided house. All hunl quge questions at the moment. Right now in talking to medical examiner, theres palpable tension, particularly among allies which most of the republican conference, which was aligned with speaker mccarthy, the former speaker mccarthy, criticizing the members who held out, those eight republicans who decided to side with democrats, kick Kevin Mccarthy out of the position here. The question is can they agree on a candidate, a new candidate who will lead them, but in talking to members, theres a lot of bad will within the conference and a long ways to go before they can get behind a consensus candidate. Those eight people are anarchists and kcaucus members, and they get their power with the democrats voting with them all of the time. They have demands that nobody can meet. There are too many people who are willing to lie to our own voters, they refused to deliver, well, explain the mechanism by which that delivery would have occurred, given the political reality we live in. Its very dishonest. We believe is best for the country, and i will say theres been a blow dealt to the status quo. I think this is a step in the right direction. Reporter so there are still some questions about who exactly will run for the next Speaker Of The House. There are several people who have been making phone calls to sound out their colleagues to see whether or not they have the support to replace speaker mccarthy. Among those people in particular, Steve Scalise, the current number two, the House Majority leader. He was once seen as a person who could run here, and the House Judiciary Committee chairman jim jordan who told me yesterday hes open to the possibility of running. He didnt rule it out. Hes signalled to his allies he could be open to the possibility of running and, kevin hern, a member of the republican study committee, the largest conservative group in the house. He has been talking to colleagues as well. Others could emerge, patrick mchenry, the interim speaker, a possible candidate as well. I may have to figure out the other candidates down the line. Something that the current republican whip could potentially go for. The big question is who could get 218 votes in the house. That will all take place next week. First, the House Republican conference will nominate someone to be the next speaker. That requires only half of the House Republican conference, but then someone needs to be elected speaker, and that requires half of the whole house, 218 members, and with republicans that means that their person will face the same issue that Kevin Mccarthy did, can only afford to lose four republican votes on any Party Line Measure which means the new speaker candidate, kw whoever that person may be, will have to assure that the hard liners are appeased and moderate members are appeased, theres an enormous amount of frustration, getting to consensus will be difficult for whoever the new speaker candidate is, guys. Ted cruz walking past through there. Maybe hes got an opinion on who the next House Speaker should be. Its good to see you, manu. Thank you so much. Donald trump who encouraged the shutdown now weighing in to all of this saying, why cant republicans stop fighting with each other and fight the democrats instead. The question is does he have any sway in electing a new speaker . We all remember that he helped Kevin Mccarthy win The Speakership earlier this year after 15 rounds of voting. Trump pushed mccarthy across the finish line, securing some final votes by calling lawmakers and publicly endorsing mccarthy. But now, ten months later, mccarthy is out, thanks to fellow republicans who are big trump supporters, and congressman matt gaetz is now suggesting that he had the backing of the former president. My conversations with the former president leave me with great confidence that im doing the right thing. Cnns Alayna Treene joins us now. What are you hearing at this point . Will donald trump weigh in to all of this in a bigger way . Reporter well, actually, sara, we just got word that the former president as he was arriving for his Third Straight day for a civil trying in new york city, he did mention briefly what is happening in congress. He said that they have a lot of good people in the Republican Party, and kind of left it at that. A very vague statement x. Thats in keeping with his posture the last few days. Ive spoken to many of Donald Trumps advisers and allies over the past 24 hours, and they told me that he purposely did not want to get involved in the Power Struggle in congress. They noted that, one, donald trump has a lot going on himself right now. He obviously is attending his civil trial but also focused on his 2024 race. Also, the other fact is he had people who endorse him and support him on both sides of the speaker fight. Of course, matt gaetz, the republican who led the effort to oust mccarthy is a donald trump supporter. He endorsed him, and hes a surrogate for his campaign, but you also have a lot of people who backed Kevin Mccarthy and did not want to see him removed from his speakership who also endorsed donald trump. And so really, they told me that they didnt see a lot of political up side to trump getting involved in this. I have one quote from a trump ally that Encaps Latulates how president is thinking about this. He cant be sticking his neck out whenever theres a fight in the house, especially when you have people who endorse him on both sides. Thats where the former president stands on this. As you mentioned, sara. Its a stark contrast from what donald trump did back in january. Of course, mccarthy was going through his 15 rounds of voting in order to secure his speakership and the gavel. Donald trump came in in the 11th hour, and Kevin Mccarthy won. Yelled he did not go into speaker fight with donald trump. And we saw him ultimately get removed from office. Well see what happens next with chaos, chaos, everywhere in congress. Thank you so much, Alayna Treene. Cnn senior political analyst, john avlon, and s. E. Cupp. Kevin mccarthy debased himself again and again and again for donald trump, and donald trump did nothing for him when Kevin Mccarthy most needed it. What does that tell you . Well, the ironies abound. There are many. Donald trump saying the republicans should focus their fire on democrats is really really rich as well, considering trump trademarked this, picking fights with republicans inside his own party. Famously primarying republicans he didnt like or who dared to disagree with him. People like adam kinzinger, and liz cheney, and jeff flake are no longer in congress because donald trump picked fights with republicans more often than he picked fights with democrats. The Republican Party, because of trump, has become far more interested in identifying heretics that convicts and matt gaetz took that up like a champ, and drove Kevin Mccarthy out. Republicans just ousted their own speaker, their own leader with no one else in the wings because donald trump sort of ushered in this wave of interparty purity tests and loyalty fights. So donald trump is not in a great position to weigh in on this fight. And Kevin Mccarthy should not have expected his loyalty to trump to go both ways. Thats never the case. What do you think Kevin Mccarthy is going to do next time donald trump calls . Do you think Kevin Mccarthy is going to go out there and campaign for donald trump now . I mean, after he reversed himself on january 6th, quite possibly. If Kwevin Mccarthy is even in te game of politics with any real influence. This is the problem, the Old Churchill line, appeasement is feeding a crocodile and hoping it eaststs you last. Its entirely predictable, when he kissed the ring at maralago, this was set in motion. As he notes, its always a one way street. Kevin mccarthy said, you know, they cant call themselves conservatives, theyre angry and chaotic. Thats the trump Republican Party, people. John, i wanted to ask you about this, i admitted to you before we came on, i broke into your office to find a copy of your book wing nuts written in 2010. The reason i was looking for it is to make the point what just happened wasnt a yesterday thing, it wasnt a january, when Kevin Mccarthy becomes speaker thing. This is a thing that has been building for a long time. Explain. Fundamentally. This is the key point to understand. This isnt about Kevin Mccarthy. It predates donald trump. This has been a structural problem within the Republican Party for more than a decade, going back to at least the tea party. Right . Think about it, john boehner was basically pushed out of office by the far right with mark meadows threatening to leave the same kind of insurrection. Paul ryan walked away saying the Conservative Outrage Complex is too much to deal with, and Kevin Mccarthy has been consumed by the same thij. Its not going to be different for the next speaker. This is what happens when you invite populist fury into the tent, and have the delusion you can corral the crazy. G golom will turn on its creator every time. Live Pictures Inside the courtroom in new york city. This is the Civil Fraud Trial against donald trump where he has already been found liable. Hes already lost what may be the biggest part of the case where a judge determined he did commit fraud along with his adult sons. Day 3 of the trial now, each day before they begin hearing from witnesses, they have allowed in brief minute to take Pictures Inside. No one speaks, this is just for your viewing pleasure, i imagine to get a sense of what its like. Donald trump not speaking there. And by the way, a Gag Order Over Trump now. He can not say anything about people involved in this case, although not the judge or the prosecutors, the people who work in the court itself, a gag order in place. We will see how that goes. Theres the attorney general, tish james who brought this civil case. Were going to keep our eye on this trial. Back to the situation at hand, and theyre not completely divorced, i imagine. Donald trump in court right there as his political future very much tied to the future of the Republican Party in general. So whats going to happen next . Is it all going to get better now . Now that they ousted Kevin Mccarthy for republicans, how do their prospects look for the next few months . Well, let me tell you what happened in the minutes, if not hours after mccarthy was ousted. Matt gaetz was out there on newsmax slamming the pro tem speaker, patrick mchenry, so thats going great. And patrick mchenry, the pro tem speakers first item of business was to email speaker aemeritus nancy pelosi to vacate her office. All problems have been solved and function has been restored. I had democratic member of Congress Annie Custer on last hour, and she was saying that she hopes what emerges from this is maybe some consensus. Maybe republicans will decide to put a moderate candidate forward who can get the support of the caucus at large. Im Playing Off What Se was just saying with some irony, and, john, my response to her is this is not an episode of the west w wing, is it reasonable to expect to have something more moderate after Kevin Mccarthy. That would be the triumph of hope over experience. We could go a dozen, 15 rounds to find the next speaker. Democrats might say, give us a candidate those of us in the problem solving caucus could support, regular order, the Speaker Of The House doesnt need to be a member of the house. Were constrained by the reflexive tribalship. There is a different way to do this. Its just hard to imagine that they could disenthrall themselves enough to do it. S. E. , any potential there is the west wing jon avalon written episode that democrats get behind a republican that might be more their like something. I love aaron sorkin, and i wish west wing were reality, but even he admits that was a Polly Anna Version of how politics goes, no more so today. Listen, republicans have not historically, and i mean recent history been in positions to help themselves win. Republicans, as you know, lost the white house, the house and the senate. Republicans keep beating themselves. Republicans just ousted their own speaker. Republicans are not in the business of helping themselves out. And helping their voters helping governance solving problems. I wouldnt expect them to do themselves any favors in the coming days and weeks. Just quickly, on the split screen with donald trump and this chaos on capitol hill. Heres the real take away. The only unforgiveness sin within the republican conference having the temerity to keep the government open, anything else is game, including having an election on the basis of a lie. John avlon, s. E. Cupp, thank you to both of you. Kate. You saw donald trump back in a manhattan courtroom. Thats where he is today, but this time hes entering the courthouse with a gag order in place. What pushed the judge to lay down that warning and threat. Police are searching for a suspect in a mass shooting today. Five people, including students shot on the campus of morgan state university, were going to take you live to the scene. And another major labor strike is kicking off, 75,000 people have walked off the job in what is now the largest American Health care strike in history. Well be back. These pictures youre looking at behind me are from moments ago inside a courtroom here in new york city. This is Donald Trumps Civil Fraud Trial where a judge has already ruled against him in a major part of the case, ruling he is liable for fraud. Now, this is a different donald trump than we have seen the last two days in court. What is different today is that there is a gag order in place. There are certain things that donald trump has been told that he can not say or write about about certain people involved in the court, and we are waiting to see if he abides by these new rules. Cnns Brynn Gingras is outside the courthouse this morning with the very latest. Br brynn. Reporter yeah, john, as always, the former president before he walked into the courtroom for the start of day three, he did make some comments. As you just noted, he was a little more careful this time, all because of the gag order that was issued by the judge here after that personal attack, the judge called it, from that truth social post that donald trump made yesterday. It was a picture of the judges clerk, identifiable of who it was, in a picture with Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer saying without any evidence that she is schumers girlfriend. That was really a bridge just too far for this judge. He issued this rebuke against not only the defense but everybody involved in this case to not issue anything publicly about anyone on his staff, whether it be, you know, in comments or on any social media saying personal attacks of any member of my court staff are unacceptable, inappropriate, and i will not tolerate them, and he said there will be strict sanctions if those are broken. Its unclear what he meant by that. He hasnt issued a full order, we do know both parties did go back into the courtroom after everyone was told to leave. So things clearly were discussed. As for now, we have the defenses former accountant, rather on the stand getting cross examined and as we noted, the former president sitting there, and hes engaged. He has been gauged the past three days of testimony watching this unfold as he is really trying to, as he says, protect his brand because a lot is at stake. It is in jeopardy, his brand, at the end of this threemonth trial. Important to note for the first time weve heard from him says he wants to testify. Well have to wait and see when exactly that will happen, whether it be for the states attorneys or his own defense. It is something he has claimed before in many of the various cases against him. And it usually doesnt quite happen the way he pledges it will. We will wait and see. Brynn gingras great to have you there, thank you very much. With me now is cnn legal analyst, and former federal prosecutor, jennifer rogers. Well start with this case, the gag order. The judge talked about sanctioning. What does that mean . What can he do if donald trump does not follow the order to stop attacking his staff . I think the first step will be fines, right, which really will hit trump where it hurts. This judge has not been afraid to do that before. He fined him 110,000 for a discovery violation. In theory, if it goes in, he could find trump in contempt, if there are repeated offenses. In a civil case, though it would be unusual, he could theoretically jail him. The most likely are fines, escalating fines, every time theres a violation until it stops. I want to move to the Election Subversion Case in georgia. Were learning that several defendants in that case have been approached by prosecutors to try and make a plea deal, and thats what sour soces are tell us. This is a normal course of business for prosecutors trying to work out deals. What would this look like . How does this work . Absolutely its normal. They need to get a lot of defendants out of the case if they have any hope of doing just the early trial next month, and then one more trial they need to get down to six to eight left, some with Cooperation Deals if they think their testimony may help, others with a cheap plea to get them out of the case and narrow it town. Theyre going to be focused on the trial happening next month. If they can get the two defendants pled out, all the better, the pressure is off or looking to cooperate people who have the best testimony against s s Sidney Powell and ken chesebro. Donald trump is not one theyre trying to make a plea deal with. Those were potential coffee county, the folks that are not high profile. I want to ask the things they need to be offering. Theres one person who has said yes, im taking the plea deal, and going forward. What needs to be offered . They will offer what they offered the one defendant who pled out, a nonrico plea. They offered scott hall misdemeanors. Thats one way out from the rico. When you talk about the rico, the penalties are high and you look at jail time. To get lower level people out, i would look for more misdemeanor plea offers, something outside the rico to get them out of the way. I want to move on to something that really strikes a chord here because it was something that pomdpped out. The New York Times reporting that prosecution is looking into the Drinking Habits of Rudy Giuliani, and if we have that picture of the times. You know, you look at this, and im questioning why are prosecutors looking into this. Giulianis drinking has trump prosecutors attention. Why. What are they looking for in this particular incident . Well, one issue is the intelligent. Right . Anytime youre prosecuting someone, you have to prove they intended to do what it is you allege they did. You might rooej Rudy Giuliani, i was too incapacitated. I didnt understand what was happening when i interacted with these people. Thats one issue if theres a possibility of that being a defense, prosecutors are going to want to look into it themselves to counter that narrative. Is there also the issue of donald trump, if he knew that he was inebriated he knew one of his members of his counsel was inebriated, that could play a role here. Anytime you have that issue, an issue of whether someones doing something with their full faculties, youll want to explore all of the options, i think the prosecutors position is that he shouldnt have been relied on refugee Rudy Giuliani No Matter What state he was in. But sure, theyll want to play out everywhere that takes them if they decide that someone actually truly was incapacitated and wasnt able to act. Every possible scenario theyre trying to look at. Thank you so much, jennifer rogers, appreciate your analysis. Coming up for us, what happens now in the House Of Representatives. Republicans are without a leader and have really zero goodwill left amongst the various factions of their party. Can they move Forward Together or does there first need to be a reckoning of sorts, as some lawmakers are suggesting today . Plus, the big announcement coming from the white house today, moving to cancel the debt for an additional 125,000 student loan borrowers. Who this will impact, and what biden is set to say about it today. Well be back. From chrome to duckduckgo. Duckduckgo is a browser you download to your mobile and desktop devices.

Let me say this to the next Speaker Of The House, whomever that may be, think carefully about what happened to your predecessors before trying to coddle the hard right. Each of your predecessors got burnt each time. I urge the next speaker not to make the same mistake. Not just for their own future but for the countrys. Whoever the house elects as speaker will not be able to ignore the realities of divided government No Matter What the hard right demands. Thats the top democrat in the senate, Chuck Schumer, speaking just moments ago from the senate floor offering some advice for the House Of Representatives. With Kevin Mccarthy losing the gavel, the house is without a speaker very clearly, and House Republicans are without a leader, and really without a clear direction at the moment. The chaos unfolding now leading the Wall Street Journal to declare republicans cut off their own heads. And have led also some republican lawmakers to lash out what who they say is to blame ch chiefly, matt gaetz, some have suggested and others who voted to oust mccarthy. Listen. I dont have tolerance for a pseudo psycho political fetish. Marc molinaro of new york joins us now. Thank you for coming in. Last night was just crazy. Republicans have thrown in the towel on this whole week because of it, not bringing the house back until tuesday. What do you want to see happen first . Well, listen, i think that we do have to spend this time to very thoughtfully consider what happens next, no person has worked harder to earn the majority or really my support as speaker than Kevin Mccarthy. The next person needs to meet that threshold. But i will say that i think we have to find someone who is capable of bringing us together to focus on governing, to actually deliver for not only the American People but for the people that i represent in upstate new york. What did you think of the advice from your fellow new yorker, from Chuck Schumer saying not coddling the hard right is what is needed in the next speaker. While you agree on very little with Chuck Schumer, would you agree on that . Well, i would id suggest that perhaps that advice could have been given to democrats yesterday when we had the opportunity not to upend the entirety of congress. I mean, truly, democrats could have joined with Reasonable Republicans like myself to not undermine congress and to oust the speaker. Remember, i think the senator referred to republicans kicking out the speaker. Well, no, eight members used a tool that should be used very carefully. They used it, i think, very callously, and instead of being lectured by the senator, it would have been helpful, i think, for democrats to respect the institution and not engage in an effort to undo the republican leadership. Congressman, excuse me, the control room is just telling me in my ear that cnn is learning that jim jordan is speaking out saying that he is going to run for speaker. Would you support jim jordan . There are a good number of members, you know, Steve Scalise is considering this. There likely will be others. I spent the last ten days in the room negotiating with members whom i agree or disagree. We talked about this last week. Ive built some relationships and i intend on behalf of new yorkers and on behalf of Upstate New Yorkers to insist that kw whoever wants my support works to earn it and the people i represent have a seat at the table. I welcome all comers but at the end of the day, whoever wishes to lead this conference needs to be focused on governing, needs to be focused on delivering for the American People and building consensus among a conference that clearly needs structure and needs to be focused on making progress. Does jim jordan have those attributes . Is jim jordan cableable of that . Thats up to him to explain to all of us. Im not going to discourage anybody. We have to have a conversation. What we experienced was eight members who used a tool callously, thats not the way to build consensus. Whether its jim, steve or anyone else there needs to be a commitment to focus on the issues that the people i represent care about and delivering for the American People, not engaging in petty politics. Its what most americans get very frustrated with. Have you i dont know if this is a wild question or not but have you tried to speak with matt gaetz who you put this squarely on . Have you tried to speak with him since this all went down . Ive not had any conversations with him since yesterday, but lets be clear, i mean, im willing to talk to anyone. I had some very heated conversations with some of my democratic colleagues yesterday and even today. The reason i ask is im hearing from some republicans similar to you saying that a reckoning is needed, and that accountability is needed for those like matt gaetz and the others who voted to oust Kevin Mccarthy. Do you think they need to be held accountable . What does that look like to you . Yeah, i think there needs to be accountability, but i think that that is something we need to address within the conference. I believe that we need to confront the rules that make it too easy to use a motion to vacate as some sort of weapon. I do mean this, the people i represent are tired of the pettiness, they dont want this kind of political back and forth, this gamesmanship that doesnt produce anything for them. As a conference there needs to be accountability, and to the American People there needs to be accountability and thats got to be focus of the governing majority and next Speaker Of The House. You acknowledged on twitter that Kevin Mccarthy was a big help in getting you elected, fundraising for you even just recently. You well know that youre a top target of democrats this coming cycle. Heard from steve womack one of your colleagues saying that he is concerned that what has happened amongst republicans just now could threaten that republicans could lose the House Majority because of this, are you concerned about that . Whether im concerned or not, that is a true statement. Yesterday congress was undermined. The House Majority was undermined. And america was undermined. Thats a reality that will play out in districts like mine, and the truth is no one person worked harder to earn my support to be Speaker Of The House than Kevin Mccarthy, and so now moving forward, whoever wishes to earn that support, you know, really has seven days to work at it. I mean that sincerely. This isnt a coronation. This isnt a game. Absolutely not. But when it comes to people the people i represent deserve to have someone whos serious about delivering for them. Go ahead, im sorry. No, absolutely. And you have always made the point to talk about that you very earnestly will work with folks across the aisle and will work with anyone to try to come to con sensus. Do you see a universe where you can work with matt gaetz, though, after this . I think that hes certainly going to have to earn some respect within the conference, and i just wont engage in the kind of, you know, personal back and forth that i know others want to, but, yes, there needs to be accountability. There needs to be us taking stock, and there needs to be an honest effort to move forward. And if theres not, theres going to be continued destructive behavior thats just not acceptable. Making history for the wrong reasons over and over again. Youre working to make sure thats not the case. Thank you as always for coming on. Your voice is important in this. Indeed. Weve got Breaking News now for you. The u. S. Will be Transferring Thousands of weapons and ammunition that it seized from iran to ukraine. Its a move that could help ukraine with critical shortages in its war with russia. Well have more details after the break. First on cnn, the u. S. Is now planning to transfer thousands of weapons it seized from iran to the ukrainian military. Our Natasha Bertrand just got that information. What weapons are we talking about exactly here, and what are officials telling you . Reporter yeah, john, so these are weapons that have been seized by the u. S. Navy in the middle east that have been bound primarily from iran to yemen to help support the fight there. And these are weapons that are primarily what have been seized from the u. S. Navy are Assault Rifles and ammunition, as well as some other kinds of larger weaponry. However, its unclear exactly at this point what the United States is going to be sending to ukraine, but this could really make an impact on the battlefield right now, of course, as ukraine struggles with some critical Supply Shortages of weaponry, of ammunition, the u. S. , to put it in perspective has seized thousands and thousands of Assault Rifle from the iranians, thousands and thousands of rounds of ammunition, so even a fraction of this going to the ukrainians could really make a huge difference, and we are told that this decision has been approved. Central command is going to be announcing it as soon as this week, and look, this could really drive a wedge between the iranians and russians as an added benefit to the ukrainians. The russians have been helping iran with various defense partnerships, and so the fact that the u. S. Has found a way to legally send these seized iranian weapons to ukraine is really a breakthrough here. Now, it is unclear what legal authorities the Biden Administration is going to be using to justify transferring these weapons because there is a u. N. Arms embargo that says that seized weapons need to be stored or destroyed, but it appears the Biden Administration has found a way here, so expect this to be really welcome news for the ukrainians, john. A Practical Impact and a symbolic one as you say because the russians have been used ira iranian built drones. Thank you very much for that reporting. Appreciate it. Kate. Coming up for us, five people wounded, including four students after a shooting in baltimore. The gunman is still on the loose. Why police think this terror unfolded at morgan state university. Well be back. Homecoming interrupted by gunfire. Police are searching for a suspect after fire people were shot last night at morgan state university. All five victims, four are students, taken to the hospital but have nonlifethreatening injuries. It is now one of at least 531 Mass Shootings so far this year. The Gun Fire Erupted after a popular home coming event. One witness says it was complete chaos as everyone started running after hearing the shots. The university is canceling classes today. A week supposed to be full of celebration. Gabe cohen is joining us from the scene. What are police saying abobout e shooter, do they have any sense of a description that they are giving out . Reporter well, the search for suspects continues this morning. I have been talking to the Baltimore Police department and they have offered really no update on whether they have any suspects, if there may have been multiple shooters in the case or if this was random or perhaps targeted. We just dont have that information yet at this point. I did just get off the phone with the media team for more began morgan state university. They wanted to reassure that it is safe to go about their business. There is no reason to believe that there is any ongoing danger. Classes are canceled and this really should be as you mentioned a joyous time here. It is homecoming week for morgan state. Last night students were packed into an event where mr. And miss morgan state were crowned, it is a tradition here, it brings in alumni, families. And students were heading from that building to another building, a Student Center when the shots rang out creating this frantic situation where Police On Patrol heard the gunshots, raced in, they found the five wounded young adults all 18 to 22 years old, four of them students here. And then the search for the gunman unfolded. They combed through buildings, students being told to shelter in place. And it is particularly difficult because this is the Third Straight homecoming here at morgan state that has been marred by gun violence. Shootings the past two years that injured one person each. This one even more serious, five people injured, and still at this hour Police Searching for the shooter. It is so disturbing that this is happening on a campus yet again. Gabe cohen, thank you so much. And a major announcement in the race to be the next Speaker Of The House. Stand by for news. Is it possible my network could take my business to the next level . It is with comcast business. Powering all your devices with gigspeed wifi. And you get fast downloads and uploads
