A newly released memo from democrats on the House Intelligence Committee is shaking up the debate over the russia investigation. Paula reid has the latest from our washington bureau. Reporter House Intelligence Committee democrat adam schiff says his memo vindicates the fbi over allegations it abused its surveillance power to monitor a former Trump Campaign adviser.

That version accused the fbi of hiding democratic ties to an Opposition Research dossier on trump and russia when seeking a warrant to monitor page. President donald trump hit back at schiff in an interview saturday night. Theyll have a Committee Meeting and hell leak all sorts of information. You know, hes a bad guy. But certainly the memo was a nothing. Reporter the democratic memo claims the fbi did not solely rely on the dossier. According to the new memo, the fbi detailed pages past relationships with russian spies and interaction with russian officials during the 2016 campaign when seeking to obtain and renew the warrant. The author of the republican memo, Committee Chairman devin nunes, doubled down on his claims of politically motivated surveillance during a conservative conference saturday. They are advocating that its okay for the fbi and doj to use political dirt paid for by one campaign and use it against the other campaign. Reporter republicans argue their memo undermines the origins of the russia investigation, but so far its had little impact.

The parkland massacre has renewed calls to approach gun violence as a Public Health threat, like diseases or car crashes. Over the past two decades the centers for Disease Control and prevention has been restricted from researching the impact of guns on Public Health. Dr. Jon lapook explains the reasons for this and why it could change. Reporter whats been sorely missing in the gun control debate so far has been science. And theres a reason for that. Back in 1993 a cdcfunded study found homicide was three times more likely in homes with guns.

The ban had a Chilling Effect on all gunrelated research by the agency. In 2016 nearly 100 medical organizationses urged congress to repeal the legislation. After the orlando nightclub shooting that left 49 people dead, i spoke with former congressman jay dickey, who helped write the law. He told me he had come to regret its effect. Why do you think its wrong now . If we had just kept the Research Dollars going and we had said science is important and we need to get to it, i didnt realize that it was possible to do that.

They finally won gold. It was stressful to watch just because, you know yeah. It was very back and forth. And like you said, went into overtime and then a shootout. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, just nervous for her and her team. But they won and it was a complete just yeah. So happy and relieved it was over and people would celebrate. Yeah, very happy and proud. I know you guys spent two years where you guys really werent in the same place as a family. Not just you but with your parents. One of your responseors helped bring you together. Intel. How did they do that . Intel was awesome. They came and shot both of us in our respective training locations. Hey, mom. Hi, mom. But for us to be able to kind of share our story with our family and friends that hadnt really seen a whole lot of us. Even when youre not there i know i always have something to play for and thats you guys. It was incredible the way they put that together. What do you think the impact was on girls in america, in korea from seeing you guys play hockey . Ive already heard from so many people back home. People tweeting at us, that weve inspired many, many people to Start Playing hockey. I think weve generated a lot of new fans, and i think for us to be able to do that thats what were here to do. Fire fighting is a very dangerous profession. We have one to two fires a day and when you respond together and you put your lives on the line, you do have to surround yourself with experts. And for us the expert in gas and electric is pg e. We run about 2,500 2,800 fire calls a year and on almost every one of those calls pg e is responding to that call as well. And so when we show up to a fire and pg e shows up with us it makes a tremendous team during a moment of crisis. I rely on them, the firefighters in this department rely on them, and so we have to practice safety everyday. Utilizing pg es talent and expertise in that area trains our firefighters on the gas or electric aspect of a fire and when we have an emergency situation we are going to be much more skilled and prepared to mitigate that emergency for all concerned. The things we do every single day that puts ourselves in harms way, and to have a partner that is so skilled at what they do is indispensable, and i couldnt ask for a better partner. Steve hartman now with the story of a young man dedicated to keeping the memory of world war ii heroes alive. Reporter 20yearold rishi sharma has always been into superheroes. The real kind. Thats why as a junior in high school he made it his mission to meet as many world war ii combat veterans as possible. I ditched so many days of high school to go do an interview. Reporter you were skipping school to go interview vets . Yeah. I started riding my bike to the local senior home. I interviewed those guys. Then i started driving. Reporter it became a daily undertaking. Every single day. Reporter when we first met rishi in 2016, he was driving all over southern california. I had a lot of missions. Reporter interviewing guys like marine tank commander ernie isley. They were going to make a big camp there and attack us at night. Reporter rishi talks to the men for hours. Wow. Reporter then gives the recordings to their families. He says he does it because time is short. Were losing about 400 world war ii vets every day. Its amazing how much history and knowledge is encased in each one of these individuals and how much is lost when one of them dies without sharing their story. The fact is i wake up every day to obituarieobituaries. Guys i wanted to interview and i have to find out that they died. Reporter at this point i should tell you rishi doesnt come from a military family. His parents immigrated here from india. And yet he cares as much about our greatest generation as any young man ive ever met. My name is rishi sharma. Reporter in addition to his inperson interviews he was telephoning at least five world war ii vets a day. Just to thank them for their service and sacrifice. It means a great deal to me that you were willing to endure all of that so that i could be here today. Oh, thank you very much. Reporter after this story first aired, rishi raised enough money on go fund me to expand his mission across the country. He travels by car, often sleeps in it. So far he has interviewed over 850 vets in 40 states, learning about their stories and their scars. Bullet wound. Reporter those that have healed. And those that will never. Who is that .
