Let me be very clear, contradict what Republicans Friends In The House seemed to, think democrats, theyre actually not to blame for this mess. And a bad turn for the former president in georgia. Not one, but two of his former lawyers have pleaded guilty in the Election Interference case brought by d a fani willis. They have agreed to testify in future cases. What that could mean for donald trump, coming up on the show. I am symone sanderstownsend, i have something to say. Humanitarian help has arrived in gaza,
Soil. We have seen the murder already happened, so, yes. Masks are calling about ways to increase security. In many parts of the country, Law Enforcement has responded by having more of a presence in front of religious institutions, especially synagogues. In order to help make the community feel safer. And i think thats important, in a time where there is a lot of frustration, confusion, and people are scared and shocked, still, about what has occurred. So, we have previously reported how dhs and the fbi are currently on high alert for possible attacks. They are looking for any possible threats. But we are seeing on the ground here, jasmine is something that we are seeing across the country. An increase in Police Presence outside of places of worship, particularly Jewish Centers and Muslim Centers as well. Yasmin . All right, marissa par for us. Marissa, appreciate it.
