To our viewers in the United States and around the world, thank you for sharing your sunday. Hate and horror in pittsburgh. A gunman with a history of antisemitic rants burst into a synagogue and killing 11 and wounding six. This is the most horrific crime scene ive seen in 22 years with the federal bureau of investigation. Members conducting a peaceful service in their place of worship were brutally murdered by a gunman targeting them simply because of their faith. Plus, the manhunt is over. An angry trump supporter now charged with mailing explosives to former president s, senators and other prominent president ial critics. We not tolerate such lawlessness, especially not Political Violence. Ieds were sent to various individuals across the country. These are not hoax devices. President trump in the spotlight. Strong condemnation of antisemitism after the pittsburgh massacre, but in the case of the Political Violence, his tweets and unscripted moments veer into Conspiracy Theory and blame. We have seen an effort in recent hours by the media to use the sinister actions of one individual to score political points against me and the republican party. The media has tried to attack the incredible americans who support our movement to give power back to the people. We begin this sunday once again in a place people, politicians around the states coping with what we used to call the unthinkable. 11 People Killed inside a pitburg synagogue believed to be the deadliest attack on the u. S. Jewish community. A 46yearold man with a history of antisemitic posting on social media. After his arrest, he told a s. W. A. T. Officer he wanted all jews to die. To honor the victims of this massacre. Last night mourners turned out for candlelight vigils across pittsburgh despite the raw weather. Also a moment of violence before saturdays hockey game for the pittsburgh penguins. The team was playing away from home in canada. People also took to social media to suggest changing the logo of the steelers football team, adding a star of david and the words stronger than hate. Political leaders thrust into the role of mourners and comforters. Heres tom wolf speaking of his grief. My heart breaks for the members of the jewish community. Today all of pennsylvania mourns with you. Antisemitism has absolutely no place in our commonwealth. Any attack on one community of faith in pennsylvania is an attack against every community of faith in pennsylvania. On several occasions yesterday, including a rally last night in illinois, President Trump calling on the nation to come together. This evil antisemitic attack is an assault on all of us. Its an assault on humanity. It will require all of us working together to extract the hateful poison of antisemitism from our world. We must draw a line in the sand and say very strongly never again. Lets go live to cnn correspondent jessica dean on the scene at pittsburgh. Jessica, youre at one of the vigils last night. Now were waiting for authorities to hold a News Conference. What are we expecting to hear from them this morning . Good morning to you, john. Yes, the News Conference will happen in about an hour. Were expected to learn the identities of the 11 victims we now know from the criminal complaint that eight of them were male, three of them female. We should learn more about them today. This as they are there are now formal charges filed against the suspect in this case 29 federal charges, including hate crimes. In this case that has really rocked pittsburgh and just broken its collective heart. We were at that vigil as you mentioned last night in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood. We were just down the way from where that shooting happened yesterday morning. And what we saw was a community that came together so often in tragedy and when people are grieving and mourning. They simply want to be together and share in that. That was certainly the case last night. We were at the Sixth Presbyterian Church where they gathered. It was overflow before the event started. People pouring out on to the sidewalks. They had a candlelight vigil. You heard some of the singing they were doing last night. I talked to a lot of people. Many of whom who lived in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood all of their life. A lot of people grow up here and raise their own families here. This is a place where people know each other and their children. They go to school together. Its a Diverse Community in terms of religion and also race. We saw that last night, john, again as we learn the identity of the victims today, this community bracing for more mourning and more grief. Jessica dean on the scene for us. Appreciate that reporting. Well keep in touch throughout the day. The gunman attacked people at the synagogue and the police and the s. W. A. T. Team. This captured on radio dispatch calls. Contact, contact. Shots fired, shots fired. We got a guy barricaded. Got one operator shot at this time. Evacing one right now. Still alive. We have at least four down in the atrium, doa at this time. Now Law Enforcement analysts, James Gagliano and former assistant director the u. S. Marshals office. Art, let me start with you. Amen to the First Responders once again. You hear people on the scene talking about the s. W. A. T. Team running in, running in during an active shooting. We do not say enough thank you for the people who keep us safe from an investigative standpoint. One of the questions this morning, they have a suspect in custody. He told the s. W. A. T. Team he wanted all jews dead. They believe they have their guy. What are the questions this morning . The main question is, is there anybody that might have helped him out. You know, john, first of all, our thoughts and prayers go to the victims but also to the Law Enforcement officers, one of them is my understanding is critically wounded. Our thoughts and prayers are with them and his family. You know, this particular psychotic individual, you know, theyre going to peel back layers of this guys life and figure out exactly how long hes been ranting and raving with these antisemitic, antiimmigrant type tones. You know, theyll check with the neighbors and family members. Apparently, he doesnt have a wife. He seemed to be quite a bit of a loner. So theyre going to look at his weapons purchase history. Going to look at his digital footprint. Apparently theres a lot of information out there on the digital footprint. Theyre going to put that all together and i think basically what were going to look at here is more than likely a Death Penalty case eventually when its all said and done. The digital footprint is rich. We have this conversation too often. You look and you see a man whose postings are full of hate. Hate about jews directly. Hate directed at the president of the United States. He doesnt expect much from President Trump because hes r surrounded by and uses a derogatory term. You search somebodys house, you look for notebooks and writings. You ask the neighbors and family members. Here it all is. Is there anything that Law Enforcement agencies can do in advance when this stuff is there but obviously he doesnt say until just beforehand, he doesnt say im going in. John, in hindsight its always 20 20 for us. Lets make a distinction between the hate crime that the shooter was charged with. The hate crime is a crime motivated by prejudice, bigotry, racism. Youre attacking somebody because of their faith, because of their race or ethnicity or sexual orientation. Theres attendant violence. The difference between that and hate speech, a hate crime is illegal. Hate speech is not necessarily illegal. We enjoy First Amendment protections, right . 1791, it was ratified. It allows us to speak anyway we want to. As long as youre not insur he can shonn or anarchy or riot. I looked this up. Its very difficult to charge somebody with hate speech. Now to your point about the internet. The internet is ripe with dark corners, this gab site where people can express these hideous, vile bigoted racist ideologies there. If someone feels that theyve been threatened and look, Law Enforcement has to do a triage here. Theyve got to determine whats a credible threat versus a noncredible threat. Theres a fine line there. In hindsight, we can look back and go, how did you miss the signs. But we dont have the resources every time somebody says something stupid, asinine or hateful on the internet to send Police Officers there. One thing the fbi does do is sometimes something called a knock and talk. We hear something that could border or tinge on action, we knock on the door and present ourselves. Art, quickly as we close, three handguns, ar15 apparently. Again, we had this conversation too often. Anything jump out to you or is that something we talk about too much . I think we always end up talking about it. In this particular case, the initial indication is that more than likely those weapons were purchased legally. You know, this is all going to be part of the case thats put together. Atf will track the weapons, the history of those weapons, find out when exactly he purchased them, how he purchased them and im sure well have a conversation here in the coming weeks about any type of loopholes or gun control. You know shall thats going to be well see that in the future. This is going to be part of a case that fbi puts together. All right. Roderick james i appreciate your insights on this sunday morning. Thank you. To echo what art and james said, our thoughts and prayers with everybody involved. The victims, Law Enforcement, the community. Julie pace of the Associated Press is here with me. Jana johnson of the Washington Post and elian a johnson. Inevitably, it used to be lets not talk politics on this day or the next day. That doesnt happen in this world anymore. Understandably so. The rabbi of this particular synagogue just days ago posted about the midterm elections and his call for gun control. The sad irony there that his synagogue listen to the president of the United States dwred who good for him, condemned antisemitism and was asked a question about guns. If they had an armed guard inside, they might have been able to stop him immediately. So this would be a case if there was an armed guard inside the temple, they would have been able to stop him. Maybe nobody would have been killed except for him, frankly. We should stiffen up our laws in terms of the Death Penalty. When people do this, they should get the Death Penalty. I dont mean this in a negative way. It is a predictable reaction in that gun rights proponents say arm the guards, at the school shootings, have armed personnel in the schools and those who argue, there are too many guns on the streets immediately say they want gun control. Is anything going to move in this debate or are we going to keep having it . Its likely well keep having the debate. The reaction is predictiablepre. Nothing happens lelegislatively. You wonder how long that can continue. While thats happening, the other predictable thing is that the shootings keep happening. We continue to have Mass Shootings and these shootings where we say this is the most number of deaths, the most number of deaths against the jewish community. We keep setting these horrible records as nothing changes in the political space. We say never again far too often. What was interesting by the president s response, oftentimes youve heard after the Mass Shootings, particularly the opponents of gun control will say its too early right now to have a policy debate. The president immediately after this horrific shooting opened up a policy debate about what exactly needs to be done and youve seen the white house react to some of the massacres by putting o of that policy debate. They have that commission to study what should happen after that parkland shooting. Nothing materialized from that. Its a difficult and divisive issue. You saw the president last night, while condemning what happened, also making it very clear that theres a Campaign Season going on, going after democrats as well. We appear to be in similar patterns that weve seen in the past shootings. I think particularly now, three weeks out from an election, nothing is likely to change and the president gave precisely the same response that gave to the parkland shooting when he said we should consider arming teachers. He did say that the administration was going to look into a proposal for that. The congress, they can debate and vote on things. They dont actually have real debates or votes about things. You can see where the chips fall. Maybe thats asking too much. Up next, a trump supporter charged with mailing bombs to democrats. He said its wrong to blame his incendiary language. One of the targets disagrees. I would like to think that everybody in america would think its wrong to spend all your time from a position of power vilifying people, questioning their patriotism, calling them enemies of of the people and then pretending that youre concerned about civility.

Daddy, mommys on the phone hi how are you guys . Welcome back. We too often get lost in the blur of the trump age. The scope and audacity of the violence and hate before us in recent days should not be lost. Antisemitism just discussed and now political hate. Cesar sayoc accused of mailing explosive device toss public figures, including two president s and first ladies. Former intelligence chiefs, big democratic donors. All are critics of President Trump. Most also are repeat targets of the president s sharp tongue and his sharp tweets. A brazen plot as the goal was to assassinate or terrorize. Let this be a lesson to anyone, regardless of their political beliefs that we will bring the full force of law against anyone who attempts to use threats, intimidation and outright violence to further an agenda. Amen to that. It is an a unavoidable fact that this played out in the final days while sayoc deserves a day in court, its an unavoidable fact that hes angry. Its around the president s grievances. The rage of his social media and his eager cnn bashing as part of the trump rally course. We look to a president at such anxious moments and theres no arguing with this. We must never allow Political Violence to take root in america. Cannot let it happen. Im committed to doing everything in my power as president to stop it and to stop it now. To stop it now. The problem is the president s unscripted thoughts and tweets undermine the calming words his aides feed into his teleprompter. Not long before he read that script on friday, a tweet with bombs in quotations channeling right wing conspiracy chatter about a liberal hoax. In that same tweet, other unscripted remarks, complaints that Late Campaign attention is being diverted from the migrant caravan. The facts are obvious here. But the real plot in the president s thinking is somehow against him. The medias constant unfair coverage, deep hostility and negative attacks, you know that, only serve to drive people apart and to undermine healthy debate. For example, we have seen an effort by the media in recent hours to use the sinister actions of one individual to score political points against me and the republican party. Were is the difference . Pitch perfect about pittsburgh. Here some of his remarks Pitch Perfect but then is it because it is a prominent trump supporter. That doesnt mean the president is responsible. But it is a prominent trump supporter who is a suspect. Is it because he truly thinks this is a plot to hurt the republicans. We cover the news. Mailing bombs to former president s and senators and Congress People is a big deal. I think its pretty obvious why the different response. Nobody was blaming the president for the pittsburgh shooting whereas there was a loud chorus of democrats immediately blaming the president for the other rash of domestic terrorist bombings against his political opponents. When the president is hit, he hits back as he said many times. Thats what he did. I think quite often even when the president says the right thing, he reads the words on his teleprompter, issues a statement, sends the tweets with the right things in them, the things people expect to hear from a president during a moment of crisis or fear, so often they get quickly forgotten because hell say what he really means. You know, at a rally speech or in a tweet. I mean, weve come to learn that this is not a comforter in chief. This is not ayu nighter in chief. Donald trump never stops campaigning. Hes always looking for what the news of the day can do for him. What it can do for the midterms. Hes always kind of looking ahead and viewing things very politically. Not through the view of what does this mean for all of us as americans. In the trump brand of politics, stoke a division of anger. Thats what drives his base and he believes can essentially help them win the presidency. You know, they think it can help them win in the midterms. When he says to unify, we need to unify, it rings hollow. Because afterwards hes stoking division and anger at these rallies. One way to do that is to direct the anger towards what his opponent what his supporters believe is a common enemy, media and uses the anger against the media. When the president says he wants unity, he wants everybody nobody to criticize him. Once they criticize him, then he goes back after that. He cant take as weve seen. The president , like all politicians cannot be held responsible for the actions of every one of his supporters. Thats not realistic. At the same time, we have to look at the fact that the suspect in these bombings was targeting people that the president has gone after aggressively. I think it is worth having a conversation about the impact of trumps rhetoric, the impact of the president of the United States being so sharply critical and personally critical of people who are critical of him. I think its interesting that this president puts himself on par with his critics, which is something we dont see president s do. President s try to be above all of this because their position is so much greater than people in the media or even lawmakers in some cases and certainly average citizens who go after him. But he puts himself on paragraph with all of his critics. They think its worth having a conversation about what the impact of his personal attacks is. You look at the scope of this attack, unsuccessful, thankfully. But the scope of the attack is mind blowing and the targets of the attacks are stunning and the audacity of it. The great Political Writer for the Washington Post puts it like this. This is the time of politics for the apocalypse. Holding power or not holding power. There is no middle ground on what winning or losing means. This created two americas and turned those in one america against those in the other. Making the argument, again, youre dead right. You cannot hold the president accountable for the actions of a supporter. But do you hold all politicians and particularly the president a little more so because hes a singular figure. Hes the president of the United States. You keep saying oven miss of the state, evil, somebody on the edge you may nudge them over. Thats part of the conversation. Is that fair . Yeah, its totally fair. Its something people have been saying for the past three years. When trump at rallies would encourage people in his crowds to beat up protesters. I mean, when he would go after his opponent not just kinds of in the usual ways that politicians go after opponents, but to use graphic language in doing so. Sure, most of his supporters hear that, they laugh, they move on and joke about it. Those arent the people youre worried about. Its the people on the fringe who, that could be the thing that ignites them. You know, were at a moment where it kind of used to be that all americans could kind of look at bombs being sent to fellow americans as something we all agree is not good. But when im out in the country talking with people, so often i find that people view this as very political. If youre a republican, you raise questions about what these devices were and conspiracy theories about them and kind of take on the president s language about blaming the media for them. As a democrat, you hold this up as the biggest example of everything wrong in the country. We have two countries that are screaming past each other right now. You have a president who puts the word bombs in tweets. I get pushing back against people who blame him. But the idea that you would say bombs and channel right wing conspiracy lunacy, thats not what to do.

The prop c plan is supported by the democratic party, teachers, and mentalhealth professionals. Vote yes on c. Big corporations pay for it, not you. Some brand new cnn numbers that show yes, the house is clearly within reach of the democrats as we enter the final ten days of the midterm campaign. The current state of play. The republicans majority. 235. Democrats in the majority. 193 seats. Look at the new rankings released on cnn clearly showing the democrats have control of the house within their grasp. 187 solid. Five likely. 14 leans. If the democrats held all those, theyre within a dozen of reclaiming the majority. The republicans in a weaker position. 153 solid. 25 likely. 21 lean. The key to control of the house, these down here. 30 tossup seats. What makes them repoise today take control. Look more closely at the tossups. Of the 30, 29 currently held by republicans. Only one democratic seat in the tossups. That is the basket from which if the democrats are successful, they can retake control of the house 29 republican seats among those 30 tossups. We have moved since our last rankings a month ago. Two seats to the republican. That tells you about the momentum from the end. Compared to early in the year, democrats in a stronger position. From the beginning of the year the republican position has deteriorated since then. Again the tossups are the key. Democrats have control of the house within their gasp. Can they generate a blue wave . Listen to the president. Hes skeptical. Early voting is now under way. If anybody wants to leave, well save your place, you can come back. Go out and vote. All over the country, republicans were hot. Were hot. Were hot. And i dont think theyre going to cool us off, no matter what they want to do. They try. They try so hard. But i dont think thats going to happen. Optimism from the president there. But if you look at rankings and the numbers, perhaps not as great an environment as the democrats thought they would have. Couple weeks or a couple months ago but they will have no excuses or good excuses if they dont retake the house. It will be a monumental disaster for the democrats if they dont retake the majority. They have shown in the past, that when theyve had opportunities, they have not seen them. Its possible republicans could hold on barely. But very clearly, everything is pointing the favor of democrats to take back the house, to have a narrow majority maybe 10, 15 seats, maybe even bigger depending how the very close races turn either which way. It looks like thats going to be favorable for the democrats, the house or the senate. More favorable for the republicans at this point all signs pointing to the fact that they will theres a good chance they hold on to the senate to pick up a seat or two. But, again, these races so close. It can turn either way. Most republicans say, democrats would pick up 30 to 35 house seats. Thats today. Wif seven, 8, 9 days to go. Depending how you count. Identifying voters and the like. Listen to the president , though. First he said well cut your taxes. He says republicans are hot. His big issue, immigration. Republicans want strong borders, no crime and no caravans, right . We dont want caravans. Were not having caravans. Were going to be so happy next week. Youll see something happen next week. Youre going to be very happy. Youre going to be very happy and you know the military is going to the border. Thats something happening this week, some sort of executive order, travel banlike. Essentially saying the migrants cannot cross. The migrants say they want to apply for asylum under the law. Is this a bold policy stroke by the president or a preelection gimmick to drive up republican turnout . Thiemt there are two issues that got donald trump elected in 2016. They are the Supreme Court and immigration. Weve seen the president turn back to those issues in 2018 with the kavanaugh fight and since he was confirmed, immigration. I think this forthcoming executive order well have to see precisely what it is. It does seem more like a gimmick than a concrete thing. Thats what weve seen from the president since he was elected. But what it is, its also a concrete effort to gin up his base ahead of next tuesday. Look at this marist poll. Is the president a factor in your vote . 67 , 2 3 of americans say President Trump is. President obama, half of americans said that in 2014. The president knows he is the issue in this campaign. Thats why its going to be everywhere in the final weeks. The former president also out saying when it comes to immigration or the tax cuts, really . The president said hes passed a middle class tax cut before the next election. Congress isnt even in session. He just makes it up. He says i am going to protect your preexisting conditions while his Justice Department is in court right now trying to strike down those protections. That is not spin. Thats not exaggeration. Thats not trying to put a positive glow on things. Thats lying. That one, president obama is correct. They will not pass a tax cut before a week from tuesday and the president S Administration is trying to undermine the requirement about preexisting conditions. That is all very true. Whether that matters or not to the voters that trump is trying to get out i think is another question. Trump is the centerpiece of this election and that plays both ways. For republicans to win, they are going to need trump voters who may not want to show up in this midterm when hes not on the ballot to get out there anyways. For democrats, its that anger at trump, that frustration with trump. The fact that they despise this president in a lot of ways that theyre hoping will ramp upturnout. Trump, again, really the centerpiece and parties want to use that to their advantage. Fascinating poll week. Next more from the campaign trail race.

I auto took an action of peaceful protest. This farce about Voter Suppression and being held up from being on the rolls and being able to vote is absolutely not true. Race a big issue. Two are key governor races. The governors races could be a giant story come wednesday. Exactly. In both of these races, you have candidates who kind of have become symbolic of the division thats going on in the country right now. On the republican side, candidates who have embraced the president and embraced his rhetoric and embraced the president s stances on immigration and stuff like that. Let not forget that brian kemp ran the campaign ads rounding up undocumented immigrants in his pickup truck. Even before this year, his office has been accused of suppressing minority voters. On the democratic side, you have kennedys minority candidates candidates, minority candidates voicing what a lot of people in the states have felt for a long time. Tapping into just frustration with how the state is run. Lets remember, when people vote for their governor, this is one of those last political positions where people feel like thats a job that can actually maybe change their life directly. Maybe theres things that their governor has done that impacted their lives directly. It feels more at home than sending someone to washington. In the case of sending someone to washington, i want to go to missouri. Its a steep hill. Claire mccaskill has to hold her seat. Shes a democrat. She runs an ad, shes standing up shes not a crazy democrat. Well see how that works. She needs her base to come out, too.

Just a few days after the midterms, President Trump will be heading oversea toss pairs where paris where dozens will be joining him. Theyll talk about his standing when he arrives in paris. Will he be weakened by republican losses or emboldened by the gop keeping the house and potentially the senate and avoiding the investigations that a Democratic House would launch. This is really going to affect how foreign governments interact with trump both in paris and over the next two years. Theres one foreign leader who you know is watching this closely. Vladimir putin. Russias leader. Hes expected to meet with trump on that trip. Volunteer to go on that trip. Good one. John, i spent time last week in kansas. Second congressional district, part of the eastern kansas and shows the extent of the republican problems in trying to keep the house this year. This is a district that overwhelmingly voted for donald trump. Democrat has not occupied this seat for about a decade. Now democrats have a serious chance of picking up this sheet. One reason why seat. One reason why the republican candidate is a novice. Paul davis is raising a lot of money and could win. Also problems for nancy pelosi. Davis is one of the democrats who say they will not support nancy pelosi no matter what. Roughly 29 democrats have said they will not support nancy pelosi. It all shows her margin is very tiny if they have a majority after the election. It will be hard for her to get the votes. A bigger majority easier to get the votes. Nevertheless, shes positioned well right now to become speaker. If she does, it will be a diverse majority potentially for people like moderates like this. Paul davis. A huge nine days ahead. Well have dramatic stories after the election as well. Jana . One thing to keep in mind at election night, this is going to be excited not just by who decides to vote. But who decides not to vote. I mean, every year a lot of americans choose not to vote in elections. In 2016, an election that captured so many peoples attention in states like tennessee, west virginia, texas, only about half of people old enough to vote actually did so. In georgia, it was about 60 . Democrats are hoping thats going to change next tuesday. Theyre hoping that this wave of enthusiasm weve seen is going to change those numbers. Republicans are hoping that their people are going to show up, even though this is a midterm, not a president ial election. Again, when im out there in the country looking for voters to talk to, i find people who are excited but i also find people who cant name their current representatives in congress. Who are so tired of politics. Theyre tuning out. They dont want to be involved. Midterm turnout always pathetic whatever your politics. Give it a try this time. How about it . Elian a . Changing the subject from the midterms, this weeks yesterdays tragic shooting at the pittsburgh synagogue, i think, gave us a revealing window into the president s world view. His response to it was a bit different from that weve seen from other tragedies. He said violence is a permanent feature of humanity. Its been going on for hundreds of years. Its likely to continue to go on. I think it was a window into his world view where he said people need to protect themselves against violence. The appropriate response is stricter Death Penalty laws. Its a contrast from the previous president s who said the arc of the world bends towards justice, even the previous republican president whose goal was to stamp out tyranny in our times. This president seems to believe that life is nasty and broodish. And that these horrible things are destined to happen and the best we can do is try to protect ourselves from them. Its a great point. Has a darker view. The o Domestic Violence of recent days largely pushed the murder of Jamal Khashoggi out of headlines. Not just because of a postal action push in congress for more answers. Tough sanctions. A Major Development nowadays away from a lawsuit to families of the 9 11 victims are pressing against the saudi regime. In a big move, the Justice Department committed to producing long classified documents about the saudi governments support for 9 11 hijackers. The documents will be produced in three ways. The first coming next month. We dont know the content of these classified fbi files. But we do know this. The saudi government fought fiercely, but unsuccessfully to keep the families from seeing them. Thats it for inside politics. Thanks for sharing your sunday morning.
