Kelley. Officials say the gunman dressed all in black was wearing a ballistic vest. Was armed with an assaulttype rifle when he opened fire on the first church of First Baptist church. Victims range in age from 5 to 72 years old. Texas Governor Greg Abbott became emotional as he described the magnitude of this tragedy. As a state, were dealing with the largest mass shooting in our states history. There are so many families whove lost family members. Fathers, mothers, sons and daughters. The tragedy, of course, is worsened by the fact it occurred in a church, a place of worship, where these people were innocently gunned down. Were told the shooter died after a brief chase into a neighboring county. Theres zstill no word on a motive. Were getting more information about how the attack unfolded. Listen to this. At approximately 11 20 this morning, a suspect was seen at a valero gas station in zsutherlad springs, texas. He was dressed in all black. Crossed the vote to the church, exited his
This after President Trump declared that he believes russian president Vladimir Putin and not the American Intelligence Community on whether moscow actively helped him win the white house last year. The russians saying, no, they didnt meddle. American intelligence officials across the board, even some that the president appointed, strongly disagree. Earlier today, those two men, clapper and brennan, were on cnns state of the union with jake tapper saying that President Trump is being duped by foreign interests. Listen to this. Well, first of all, he was referring to us as political hacks because he was trying to delegitimatize the intelligence assessment that was done. Jim clapper, jim comey and john brennan did not write that assessment. It was written by the Intelligence Officers of this great country. I feel very honored to be associated with jim clapper and jim comey in the same category. Considering the source of the criticism. I consider that criticism a badge of honor. Third, i
Selfcongratulates, i didnt hear him speak about the need of the people, chris cuomo. Reporter i was at katrina and i understand what that scar on our history is all about. I saw the bodies. We understand what the death count was. Yes, that was of epic proportion. And it showed a history of neglect of part of this population that must never be ignored. And hopefully some point will be improved upon. But to equate misery, its counter productive. Forget about tone deaf or style points. You cant go anywhere on the island. He doesnt have to go deep into the island or deep into the mountains or into the remote areas, it is everywhere. They are completely stuck. And again, the president at a political convenience early on decided to put this on us. And say that it was fake reports and that we were disrespecting the First Responders. It reminded me of the war and terror where us reporting on the battle was us disrespecting the troops. It is not true. We respect our first responder. We saw it h
Surfaces. Hollywood is reacting further. Plus, the death toll rising out of the west with 40 dead in the worse week of wildfires in the history of california. No relief in sight of in terms when this may end. Were on the ground with the warning for residents in the line of fire. We want to begin with the m word and thats a reference to what made headlines last week. Moron. And Rex Tillerson. How he referred to the president over the summer. Hes still ducking questions in sunday sitdowns about whether he called the president that word. Can you please clear it up . As i said, jake, im not playing. These are the games of washington. These are the destructive games of this town. Theyre not helpful to anyone. And so my position on it is, im not playing. Im not playing. You want to make a game out of it, im not playing. So tillerson avoiding answering that question but by contrast, the secretary of state was also asked about remarks made by senator corker and his time as secretary of state.
Waving into a fresh battle of words two days before hes due to deliver his first state of the union address. The president turning to twitter to lash out and respond to a critic. His target . One of the bestselling musicians of all time, superstar jayz. He appeared on cnn last night, the first guest on the new show, and jayz was critical of President Trump on several levels, even calling the president a super buck, talking about why black americans vote for democrats and discuss unemployment in the black community. The president on twitter responded. First, heres jayz. Its not about money at the end of the day. Money does not equate to happiness. It does its missing the whole point. Treat people like human beings, and then, you know, thats thats the main point. You cant treat someone like goes back to the whole thing, treat me bad and pay me well. Its not going to lead to happiness. Its going to lead to, like, you know, again, its the same thing. Everyones going to be sick. The preside
