Point, counterpoint, democratic memo just released as a rebuttal to a gop memo claiming the fbi and Justice Department abused their powers to spy on a Trump Campaign official. The tenpage memo comes two weeks after President Trump blocked it, saying it contained classified and sensitive information. Now, since then, the memo has been heavily redacted by the house intelligence committee. It reveals the fbi had already launched an investigation into the trump team prior to receiving a dossier. Alleging trump had ties to the kremlin, which the president says is false. But the white house released a statement late this afternoon, and is says the democratic memo failed to address serious concerns on the misuse of government surveillance.

So we need to have a hearing and a vote. I see an awful lot of solution elements at work here in california already. And for some reason, they havent been getting support they need in the rest of the country. Reporter many rejected President Trumps recent tweet on the possibility of giving guns to teachers. With military training or other experience. Students were in the crowd. I think they should make the law harder to get guns. Reporter brad spoke in opposition to much of what was said. Its harder to buy a gun nowadays, but yet we see these Mass Shootings and all these problems. Why dont we look at the root of the problem and figure out why people are doing this instead of blaming gun owners. Turn the cameras off.
