the best care dove body wash s new formula works with your skin for lasting care so your skin can keep telling stories beautifully new dove body wash proven lasting care for the skin you live in we turn next here tonight to the two nypd officers shot here in new york city responding to a domestic dispute. gunfire erupting inside the home. the suspect was shot and killed. one officer was hit in the hand, the other in the leg. other officers on the scene rushing them to the hospital. also here in new york tonight, remembering a former mayor who made history. former new york city mayor david dinkins has died. the first and only african-american mayor in the city s history. proudly describing the city s rich diversity as a gorgeous mosaic. current mayor bill de blasio calling him a mentor and friend. mayor david dinkins was 93. when we come back here, that mystery monolith discovered deep in the american desert.
and he was the spokesperson of the mayor, never denounced that. so, the rudy giuliani that people are trying to act like they re shocked at seeing now, that s who he is! whether you agree with him or not, i must say, he s been consistent in terms of those of us that s known him. that s the rudy we marched on. yeah. i mean, i m glad you mentioned mayor dinkins, because in a lot of ways, his takeover of new york city after david dinkins is sort of equivalent to the way that donald trump has been sort of a reaction to president obama. absolutely. david dinkins was elected in 89 talking about the gorgeous mosaic bringing the city together. he was defeated in 93 by rudy giuliani. rudy giuliani, who benefited from a report on the crown heights riots that condemned the dinkins administration in large part, even though it exonerated a lot of the activists that they claim were there, weren t there. but they were very, in my opinion, very unfair in the
well, it s a direct contrast to the things that dr. king stood for that abraham lincoln stood for. those are figures who wanted to bring the country together. donald trump is tearing us apart. those were individuals who wanted to move the country forward. donald trump clearly wants to turn back the clock in ways that will be unfortunate for the great gorgeous mosaic that are the american people. i think if donald trump spent a little bit more time actually focused on trying to work with house democrats to get things done for the american people, because, chris, after all, that s our job, and we want to fix our crumbling infrastructure. we need a partner in order to do so. we want to lower the high costs of life-saving prescription drugs. we need a partner to do so. instead, donald trump has been fantasizing about this grandiose display on the national mall, and also spending his time sort of interacting with dictators all across the country in ways
represent is that we are authentically connected to the gorgeous mosaic of the american people. we re all committed to making sure we fight to make life better for the middle class. that s going to unify us moving forward over the next two years. congressman, tomorrow i will call you chairman of the house democratic caucus. thanks for being with us. thanks for having me. president trump starts the new year facing mounting legal troubles. what is robert mueller s next move? jeffrey toobin joins us next.
for a second and then here are the new democrats, yes, more democrats than republicans, there s another difference in case you need help, here are the two incoming groups of freshman side by side, the republicans overwhelmingly white and male, the democrats look more like, well, america. here with me now is somebody who will be returning to congress come january and who had a hand in getting those new people elected. how does it change to have this many new people in your caucus to have this many new different backgrounds. it s a phenomenal thing. we will clearly represent the gorgeous mosaic of the american people. we re black, we re white, we re latino, asian, men, women, we re young, we re older, we re gay, we re straight. let me stop you there, say young ask older, spoken like a true politician. seasoned members and we ve got newer members who ve never served in elected office. it s been a great combination.
