live. in a moment we re going to play a short portion of it, one that gives you a look into his state of mind and how he is trying to frame his defense to his supporters. i m joined now by new york democratic congresswoman and house oversight committee member alexandria ocasio-cortez. thanks so much for being here. first of all, i just want to the little havana stop, that cafe, versailles cafe, one of the reasons we re told by his folks he was there is because the cuban american people know from political persecution. and i wondered how you might interpret that and what you think of that. well, you know, i think it s it makes it s not a surprise. during trump s remarks he was trying to somehow pin this as some great marxist conspiracy. but the fact of the matter remains that tn individual who r. tand u.s. national security secrets, nuclear weapons locations or, you know, nuclear site locations, sensitive materials, and put our nation at risk. and frankly this is beyon
operation. this is a great step. and, congratulations to the activists who have been pushing for this. and a congressional and executive-level for a long time. hats off to the biden white house. it s an amazing that appreciating president not call trump didn t do this. it s about time. good news. yes it is. thanks money,. think. thank you. president biden began his address to the nation tonight. on gun violence. with the report on what he found in his visit to uvalde. innocent victims, murdered in the classroom, that had been turned into a killing field. standing there and that small town, like so many other communities across america. i couldn t help but think, they are too many other schools, to many other everyday places, that have become killing fields. battlefields. here in america. tonight, president biden delivered the message to congress, and to the country, that he heard in uvalde. they had one message for all of us. do something. just do somethin
found in his visit to uvalde. innocent victims, murdered in the classroom, that had been turned into a killing field. standing there in that small town, like so many other communities across america. i couldn t help but think, they are too many other schools, too many other everyday places, that have become killing fields. battlefields. here in america. tonight, president biden delivered the message to congress, and to the country, that he heard in uvalde. they had one message for all of us. do something. just do something. for god sake, give something! after columbine, after sandy hook, after charleston, after orlando, after las vegas, after parkland, nothing has been done! this time that can t be true. this time we must actually do something. the president was asking the country for support tonight. and in washington, he was aiming the speech at ten republicans. this time it s time for the senate to do something. but, as we know, in order to do and get anything
investigating hunter biden. i m not saying it would have been a good idea. but he could have done it. but he was cautioned to and ultimately did not. he let both men continue their jobs. the u.s. attorney in delaware is still investigating hunter biden. so this idea that joe biden puts himself above the law when given the opportunity to fire durham and to fire the u.s. attorney in delaware he didn t take is just silly on its face. and also that u.s. attorney that is investigating hunter biden is a trump-appointed u.s. attorney, which is not often something that you hear the former president or his allies mention. obviously, jake, a lot of this has to do with what s happening here today and his claims about this. we ll see where this investigation, where this case goes from here as he is trying to find that other attorney. jake, as you were just speaking with congresswoman ocasio-cortez
that i understand that way of thinking the trouble with that is there is a single voter on the trump side of the world? that respects joe garland or merrick garland because they did not fire durham. of course not and, they are damned if you do damn if you don t position. tim is right to say that the conspiracy theorists of the rights and the trump cult have been given ammunition from, by durham and by barr. made this week. but the same time, they fire him. they have a different type of ammunition. in 2016, before he got elected. trump has been spinning conspiracy theories, of a deep state, deflect from the complicity, democracy.
