But thats not what jerry nadler believes. Were learning behind the scenes he has made multiple pitches to the House Speaker to open up an impeachment inquiry. In a meeting this week with her and other chairman of key committees, he made the case, nadler did, that there should be an impeachment inquiry to essentially add the weight to their legal case in court, the cases that they are involved with on several fronts to try to get information from this administration, which has rejected their subpoenas and other requests they say that nadler said he could help that. Also he is saying he could centralize all the investigations that are taking place in the house to only occur before his committee,

and my cousin actually took those and printed those out for us. and we have a personal book now that are his personal memoirs written by him in his own words that recount everything that he went through during the war. i m so glad he did write it down. so often with our older relatives, we think about that, we don t do it and then you feel like those stories are lost. so i m happy he did. yes. and i m so happy you came on tonight to help tell us more about him. edie bice, thank you so much. yes, thank you so much. there is a lot more straight ahead tonight, including the latest on an accident near west point involving soldiers and cadets at the military academy. that s coming up. as your life grows, so do your needs. and with bank of america and merrill, the benefits you get can grow, too.
edie, i think it was an emotional moment for all of us watching today to see the french president macron help your grandfather stand. and i wonder what went through your mind during that moment. it was very emotional. so there was tears first and foremost. but it was just an honor is the first thing that comes to mind. so honored that he was there, that he got to go, and that, you know, he was chosen out of those that were there to be recognized. and he gave so much. and as did all. but i guess the one word that just sums it up for me is we felt so honored and so grateful for the recognition that he received.
president trump picks up the story from there. again, he chose to return. he didn t care. he had to be here. he was then wounded a third time and laid unconscious for 12 days. they thought he was gone. they thought he had no chance. russell pickett is the last known survivor of the legendary company a. and today, believe it or not, he has returned once more to these shores to be with his comrades. at the end of that speech, the 94-year-old stood to thank those who had honored him. private pickett, he needed help, though immediately french president macron came to his aid. soon president trump followed and gave pickett a big hug. joining me tonight is the granddaughter of d-day veteran russell pickett, edie bice.
