criticize you and senator brown for something that didn t take place? look, i think what s been really heartening through this tragedy is, one, the grit and resilience of our community, how people are coming together, the real love in our community. and we are seeing a lot of bipartisan support. the governor putting forth his 17 point plan around what he wants to do around common sense gun legislation in the statehouse. we ve seen congressman turner, a republican about a 93% nra rating call for an assault weapons ban. so we ve seen people come to the table. i think for i can t really speculate on why the president felt this way, but, you know, it s just unfortunate, you know, because for daytonians what we re hoping to see is action and we re hoping he s not an all talk politician.
small. he had claimed inaccurately to have prosecuted and sent to jail terrorists. nbc news was the first to report, my colleague pete williams worked on that and we reported that that did not take place. and the washington post today with more examples of embellishments of his resume. he was not known in the community. he was not respected by the intelligence community and in place you have the principle deputy who is a career person who is so highly respected and then today a report in the new york times that the president was planning to by pass her complete when she s supposed to be taking over as the acting dni. and one of the points that werner made, he was concerned that this would be a yes man and that was the key concern as we enter this new election cycle, andrea. talk about the threat that whoever does become the next dni
final decision about the andrea mitchell who has now officer s fate, what joined me on set. talk about the significance and specifically will he will reviewing? how will he make this call? what kelly points out which is he ll look at the report, we re entering an election cycle it s 47 pages, overwhelming and a lot of lawmakers on evidence, and the officer gets capitol hill felt as though he to respond. was not the right person for the commissioner will get his side as well. this moment. i think the key was richard going forward, 800 complaints of burr. when this nomination was announced, it was very clear from richard burr s statement, illegal choke holds since he said when we receive this nomination, a clear indication garner s death. fewer than 2% of those officers that he wasn t even sure it was have been disciplined. going to be sent up, that he if officer pantaleo is fired, he would not pass the vet. will be the first police this is another case of the department on the nypd
will face, will have to grapple with. well, by statute, the dni, when it was created after 9/11, when this whole position to organize all 17 intelligence agencies under one head, that person is supposed to have extensive appearance in military or intelligence and john ratcliffe does not meet that at all. this importantly was a republican-led senate raising all of these concerns. say, but be confirmed. and it was because even with the majority of republicans in place, they were not going to hold the republican majority for him. and the other piece of this is, we know already by executive action that the attorney general, william barr, is going to be getting declassified
that he has government clearance, that he is a government insider with the trump campaign. this is not true almost certainly. we have tied the origins to it back to a bunch of people who are veterans in the trolling space basically. and what they, do again, they lead these people down this path to believe there is this kabal running the world. this week there was supposed to be a large event that happened on wednesday. didn t take place. the very first post by q, the guy who s allegedly this government insider said that hillary clinton is about to be arrested, and the national guard is about to take over. that didn t happen. that was in 2017. so that s really where we re at. it s all about trying to get over trying to get these people wrapped up in this thing that doesn t really exist. and, ben, we saw some of the video right there. i ve been at plenty of trump rallies where i ve seen people with the q on their shirt or
