For biden. Former president george bush and his brother jeb not planning to vote for President Trump either. Well get to all of that in a moment. But first, in washington today, democrats unveiling a new plan to reform americas policing. In the 1950s, news cameras exposed the brutal horror of legalized racism in the form of segregation. 70 years later, it is the cell phone camera that has exposed the continuation of violence directed at africanamericans by the police.

Particularly when thats notable when were talking about something as important as funding the department of Homeland Security. You know whos not a fan of a threeweek spending bill for the department of Homeland Security that would be the secretary of dhs, jeh johnson.

Certainly if it turns out that indeed he was practicing this with an airplane full of passengers that of course makes the premeditated nature of all this just so much more clear. Certainly very scary, right, fred . Easy to say its going to be tricky to prove. Stay with us and bring in mary schiavo, former Inspector General for the u. S. Department of transportation. Mary lets try and understand this a little bit. Fred reports there were changes in altitude and this earlier flight that this copilot and pilot took.

This is the third shark attack in this area in four days. Whats going on here . Well jose cleary theres one or more dangerous sharks in the area. And the attacks yesterday so close in time and space is pretty suggestive that there could be a single individual thats been involved. The important thing at this point is not to panic.
