as we start this special, it is important to remember one thing, what happened on january the six, 2021 was not a spontaneous riot. in fact, it was a coordinated attack. during the first public hearing of the january six committee, vice chairman liz cheney laid out in detail donald trump s seven planned point despite losing the election. that is where all of this begins, trump s loss and his refusal to acknowledge it. even before the election was called for joe biden, donald trump pushed disgusting election conspiracies, but his own team knew the truth. his own team knew that he had in fact lost the 2020 election. i remember the call with mr. meadows, where mr. meadows was asking me what i was finding and if i was finding anything? i remember sharing with him that we were not finding anything that would be sufficient to change the results in any of the key states. next, trump turned to the department of justice to help peddle his election lies. when the officials there re
the man arrested outside kavanaugh s home said yesterday he planned to break in and kill him. bill: dhs warned it could happen. the liberal group that leaked the address online held another protest outside his house last night. only hours after the suspect s arrest. it s prompting a wave of outrage from republicans. not just the fringe left but democratic leadership inciting violence. one reason for protestors to show up outside the home of a public fixture to say we know where you live. nancy pelosi said i m perfectly okay to go to justice s home to change the view. when you send this kind of message, it just undermines the legitimacy of the united states supreme court as an institution and this is what it leads to. do you think just to be clear, you think some of the democrats rhetoric is to blame for what happened this morning? of course. bill: just last month the senate passed a bipartisan bill to increase security for the justices and their families. spe
this three day weekend. a reminder freedom isn t free because it s about memorial day. honoring the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice protecting the country. holiday dates back more than a century to the debt this conflict ever fought on american soil. as a quick history lesson. 1865 the civil war came to ac end but not without devastating american families more than 600,000 men killed in a bloodbath. grieving mothers, daughters and wives credit the grace of fallen soldiers decorated with hours and flex. the brutal conflict moved major general john logan to establish decoration day may 30, 1868 which could later be known as memorial day. the peaceful they chosen because it wasn t associated with any anniversary of any particular battle, it was for all of them. at the first major ceremony held in arlington national cemetery, the general approach for americans to decorate the graves with springtime flowers proclaiming that no vandalism or neglect, ravages of ti
the suspect is dead, killed by law enforcement. we find it painful, trust me, to read these headlines as much as you must find it painful to hear them, but here are the facts as we know them. we learned officers responding to the scene faced gunfire from the suspects. several of those first responders were wounded. we know he was wearing a t tactical vest but did not have the bullet-proof or ballistic plates in it. it remains unclear what weapons the killer used but these show two ar-15 style rifles posted to an nam account linked to the gunman and one of the bios said, kids be scared. one of the first responders to this shooting. uvalde city council member chip king and the fire department said what the scene was like when he arrived and also, how long it took before that killer was neutralized. it was evidence that it was not a secure scene. there was a lot still going on here. it was a very chaotic scene initially. it was probably 30 minutes after we arrived, after i a
the victims and their families. it s not just littleton. we know that lots and lots of places. we been through this too many years, took decades now. as i said just a few months ago, and i said a few months before that, and i said each time we see one of these mass shootings are our thoughts and prayers are not enough. schools should be places of safety and sanctuary and learning. perhaps now america would wake up to the dimensions of this challenge. if can happen in a place like littleton. and we can prevent anything like this from happening again. and now, president biden once again joins his predecessors in what has become a sick ritual of addressing the nation after a horrific mass shooting inside an american school. this was the scene from the white house yesterday. after the latest massacre in texas. american flags were also lowered at federal buildings. military installations and at u.s. embassies around the world. we ll go live to texas in just a momen
