Mitigation plans in our schools, that was, until the ctu blew up that success and created chaos that we are now enduring. We waited for hours last night. Hours, and still did not receive a proposal from the Chicago Teachers Union leadership and as of this morning, we are still waiting. But to be clear, not patiently, not anymore. We are failing those children by not giving them the option to return to school. Failing grades, depression, isolation, and so much more. My patience for delays from ctu leadership is over. Jesse San Francisco has had enough as well be at the situation is a ridiculous that the city is now suing its own Public School district to get classrooms reopened. Where is joe biden in the Democratic Party for all of this . Why isnt he backing up local leaders in San Francisco with mayor lightfoot . Michael bloomberg seems to have an idea why. He is telling the president , grow a backbone. Its time for joe biden to stand up and say that kids are the most important things.
Joining us this hour. Heres an interesting thing. Sort of a personal thing, but also a news thing. Right before President Trump was impeached the first time, i published a book called blow out and the weird surprising to me thing about blow out is that tended up being oddly well timed. I had no idea it was going to be well timed when i set out to write it, but thats how it landed. It was a book about the Oil And Gas Industry and the political power and geopolitical power of that industry. And a big chunk of that book was about all of the craziness and Corruption In Ukraine. And of course, then, right at the time the book came out, all the craziness and Corruption In Ukraine ended up being the setting, like the Playing Field for what President Trump got impeached for the first time he got impeached. I did not intend it to land that way. It was fortuitous and i hope helpful to people trying to figure out that landscape while we were looking at that first impeachment. Now, of course, mr.
Representative Marjorie Taylor greene and the thirdranking house republican, liz cheney, who voted to impeach former president trump. Stand by for new information on that. And the republican infighting continues. Meanwhile, the Biden Administration is trying to stay focused on covid relief. The president meeting with fellow democrats today, urging them to go big and stick together as they move ahead on his nearly 2 trillion package without at least for now republican support. In just a moment ill talk with senator Bernie Sanders. Hes the new chairman of the Senate Budget committee. He was in that meeting with the president earlier today. But first lets go up to capitol hill. Our Congressional Correspondent ryan nobles is joining us. Ryan, were standing by to learn the outcome of this really critical meeting of House Republicans. What are you learning so far . Reporter well, wolf, the one thing we know for sure is that that meeting is still ongoing. More than two hours it has been as re
Attack unlike any weve seen in our lives. The managers case straightforward and comments by his violence supporters to show he instigated the attack and plan to rebut the notion a president cannot be tried after leaving office. As for the defense, well, their brief begins with a mistake, a pretty sloppy one at the top of page one as you see there, the lawyers misspelled United States. Those are the ex president s lawyers. From there they argue an ex president cannot be convicted on constitutional grounds. In addition, they make a claim thats easily disproved, reading from their brief quote it is admitted that after the november election, the 45th President exercised his First Amendment right under the constitution to express his belief that the Election Results were suspect. The brief goes on to say quote insufficient evidence exists upon which a reasonable juriest could conclude the 45th President s statements were accurate or not and thereafter denies they were false. Insufficient ev
That science is on the side of the parents and students. Not the union. Safely open the school and keep a school open. Doesnt require that 100 of the participants be vaccinated to accomplish that. Examples throughout our country of schools that are able to reopen safely and do so while following mitigation strategies. Martha during the debates, President Biden said clearly i am the Democratic Party right now. Today the Wall Street Journal called on him to lead on this issue. Writing this in an oped. Perhaps you heard a few thousand times as the Biden Administration will listen to science. The science says schools can safely reopen. The white house is still listening, make that bowing, to the nonsciences who run the teachers union. How about the science of impact of Generational Learning Loss that were experiencing right now . We have yet to see the numbers. But my anticipation is that they will be difficult when we do. What about the emotional toll of being deprived of Human Interactio
