President trump is facing two big stories this morning. First, russian hacking allegations reportedly pointing directly to the kremlin. And an uphill struggle to get enough republican votes for his Signature Health care plan. In twoe weeks he could be face to face with Vladimir Putin at the g20 meeting in germany. Right now hes calling out the Obama Administration. As this Washington Post report suggests, former president obama knew about moscows attempt to hack the u. S. Elections, but didnt do enough to stop them. Listen to this. Well i just heard today for the first time that obama knew about russia, a long time before the election. And he did nothing about it. But nobody wants to talk about that. The c. I. A. Gave him information on russia, a long time before they even you know, before the election. And i hardly see it. Its an amazing thing to me, in other words the question is, if he had the information why didnt he do something about it . He should have done something about it. M

Robyn Scott thought she wouldn t be able to get out of bed for a demonstration against police brutality on Saturday. The depression she s experienced since her son Melvin Murray died during a police chase was gripping her. She didn t think she could talk to a crowd of people in Roselawn about what happened. It hurts when you can t touch your child, when you can t hug your child, when you can t talk to your child. It hurts. I couldn t get out the bed . But I got the strength to get up because I was thinking about my child, she said, calling for the crowd to help take on police brutality and demand accountability.

these cases should be charged. in a statement, dubose s mother called for solidarity with the case of philando castle. castle s girlfriend and her daughter were in the car when he was shot. later a police camera caught this interaction. watch and listen. this is in the back of a squad car. [ screaming ] it s okay. i got youite right here with you. mom, please don t do this. i don t want you to get shooted. okay. kiss. okay. i can keep you safe. i can t believe they just did that.
feared hr his lives. and his buddy saying i saw scrape marks on the back of his uniform. and without this video where would the investigation be? let s talk about the report. and how concerned are you as a former officer there seemed to be so many inaccuracies in terms of what happened to the police officer in this? first of all my thoughts and prayers go out to the dubose family. i agree with the prosecutor. i understand that cops have a tough job to do. but i agree with the prosecutor in this case. this did not have to happen. it was a routine traffic stop. if you run the tag you know who the owner of the vehicle is which means you can find the driver at a later time if that is what you have to do. the officer was obviously in fear. it looks like in fear without merit from what i ve seen. there was nothing in that video that dictates that the officer should have been afraid. but if he made a mistake, it is even a double sin. and i know this job very well. i know a lot of people w
