Surfaced showing the gunmen in the Charlie Hebdo attack. Officials say the weapons came from abroad and theyre looking into people who provided the gunmen with substantial financial backing. Whats happening in paris, though, is having an impact right here at home. Lawyers for boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev are asking to delay jury selection for a month because of comparisons being made of the two attacks, including the comparison of brothers being involved in each attack. Meanwhile, though the fight against isis does intensify. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell and other congressional leaders met with president obama yesterday. Senator mcconnell says the president is working on sending congress a new authorization for the use of military force against isis. This as french lawmakers voted to extend air strikes against isis in iraq. Nbcs ron allen is in paris for us today. Ron, so whats been the reaction to the magazine so far, and where are the officials with the investigation . Reporter well the reaction to the magazine which i have a copy of here were not going to show it to you because some of the cartoons may be offensive to some viewers. Its selling like hot cakes, frankly. Hundreds of thousands of them in the first minutes. There were people lining up overnight to try and get a copy of this magazine, people trying to sign up for reserve copies as well. You cant find a copy of this now anywhere in france paris, certainly, and there are perhaps as many as 3 million that were printed. And now theyre talking about printing millions more to meet the demand. It is a typical Charlie Hebdo magazine full of satire full of mocking. There are a lot of cartoons that mock the Jihadist Movement and terrorists. There are tributes to the people, the contributors and the cartoonists at the magazine who were killed. It takes on religion it takes on secularism. And again, some people who weve been talking to say that they are buying it and they want a copy of it to show solidarity with the movement here for free speech freedom of expression. Theyre not fans of the magazine, per se. Before all this they had only sold about 30,000 copies a week. Now, again, in the millions. There are contributions pouring into the magazine which was struggling financially before all of this as well. Meanwhile, the Investigation Continues into trying to sort out how these attacks happened. Another element now, there are reports that al qaeda in yemen has released a video claiming responsibility for the attacks that, again, yet not confirmed. Still, 10,000 soldiers military security all over paris and france trying to keep keeping this nation on high alert or the highest level of alert as the Investigation Continues. People are continuing to try to get back to their normal lives, but again, this remains a very anxious, tense place, people nervous about what might happen as authorities try to get to the bottom of what caused the people responsible for these attacks. Back to you, betty. All right, ron. Thank you so much for that update. Back here at home a former ohio bartender is facing charges for threatening to kill House Speaker john boehner. Michael robert hoyt who worked at a country club frequented by the House Speaker, has been indicted on charges of threatening to poison boehners drinks. Nbcs tracie potts is live in washington for us. Shes been following this story. Okay, so tracie what more can you tell us about this . Reporter well, we know that the Speakers Office has been notified. Apparently, they are thanking authorities for essentially foiling this plot. Its been going on since october. And now that the grand jury indictment is unsealed were learning a lot more about what michael hoyt may have had in mind. Authorities say when they searched his home he had a gun that his mother apparently had removed another gun because she was concerned he had undergone psychiatric treatment before. Last october, he told police that he was jesus. He thought john boehner was mean and responsible for ebola. Apparently, the plan was to either shoot him or to poison his drink. Boehner has said that he remembers hoyt from his country club in ohio as a bartender but that there were no negative interactions between the two that he can recall. But he is this morning thanking authorities. Now the concern is when hoyt might get out of the hospital. He was hospitalized with a 45day psychiatric evaluation last month. Betty . All right tracie.

Thanks for having me on. Lets talk about this Charlie Hebdo magazine remains defiant in the face of terrorism. 3 million copies sold so far, but with the Prophet Muhammad depicted on the cover, are more attacks expected . Well youre seeing the French Police really amp up their presence across france especially neighborhoods considered atrisk, jewish neighborhoods specifically. There are 10,000 troops stationed around to try to prevent that. Of course depicting the Prophet Muhammad on the magazine has gotten the magazine warnings from muslim organizations that that is blasphemous to even have the Prophet Muhammad on the cover. So while there is no immediate threat, there is chatter on extremist websites and the ongoing threat that that could anger islamic militants. You know, some are looking at all this and wondering, could retaliation reach other countries as well and should the u. S. Be on high alert . After an attack like this, all countries are on high alert, especially countries that have a history of terrorist attacks by islamic militants against them. The u. S. Obviously, one of them. So, the u. S. Government is of course monitoring this and monitoring any ongoing threats. There are six missing terror cell members in france that, of could you, governments both in europe and the u. S. Are monitoring. So it could be an ongoing threat. Well, how are the president and lawmakers really tepgstepping up the fight against isis . You saw that come up yesterday in the white houses meeting against president obama and congressional leaders. Mitch mcconnell said after that meeting that the white house did plan and set new language for enforced authorization against isis. Thats been an ongoing contention point between the white house and congress. Congress says its up to the white house to send that language over which would authorize new military force against isis the Islamic State that is taking over parts of syria, and that is what the white house needs in the eyes of many legal scholars to continue the fight there, the u. S. s fight in action against those militants. All right, well be watching all of it play out. Lauren french thank for joining us today. We appreciate it.
