hello, everyone. i m bianna golodryga. welcome to cnn newsroom. i m victor blackwell. good to be with you. president biden is taking his state of the union pitch on the road. right now he s speaking in the battleground state of wisconsin focusing on his administration s effort to boost manufacturing in america. this is part of a two-day swing. biden is also going to tampa, florida, to reinforce last night s message which is seen as a preview of his expected 2024 re-election campaign. cnn s phil mattingly joins us now. so what more do we expect to hear from the president today? i know he s feeling good from that speech last night. i don t think white house officials could be happier in the wake of the speech last night, not because they feel like they delivered on the extensive remarks they spent months probing and in the off-the-cuff moments he had with republicans back and forth where they felt the president demonstrated a level of vigor they wanted him to show but als
donald trump made during the violence of january 6th ever be trusted with any position of authority in our great nation again? that was congresswoman liz cheney with a question, an extraordinary question, closing this round of hearings from the january 6th committee. it was a question, but it also seems to be the main argument from the committee as they presented new evidence of what they called donald trump s dereliction of duty during the insurrection. i m john berman, brianna is off, chief white house correspondent kaitlan collins is here. and what a remarkable night that was. i mean, going through that hearing, all of these have had a little bit of new information, but last night i think they really tried to get behind the scenes, which is what we have been trying to do as reporters since that day of what was going on. the confirmations of things that had been reported by terrific reporters like you, but also new elements, new audio, new video that in some cases i d
with the prime minister s statement on wednesday. while he opposes a pro palestinian rally being held on armistice day, he has ultimately backed the right to peaceful protest . and while ms braverman does have the tools and authority to remove the police commissioner, she doesn t have free reign to involve herself in daily policing decisions. so where does this leave the commissioner, mark rowley? to exit stage left at this point no matter how honourable, that might be the right thing to do would not be helpful for me policing perspective, and the last thing this weekend needs is something else that s not helpful. it needs a little bit of common sense and continuity and stability, and i suspect he would ve thought that him leaving would not provide that. our panel to discuss all this tonight, bryan lanza one political strategist who ran the donald trump communications department, and running but paul wall. but let s start with bryan. but there has been a lot of criticism
americans don t feel as though the cost of consumer goods is going down and that s something that republicans have attacked the president on and the administration on repeatedly, and so we heard the president last night talk specifically also about junk fees, and that s been those the fees of overdraft fees from banks as well as excessive fees from airlines and resort fees from hotels that are not actually resorts. that s an attempt by the white house and by biden to show the american public that they are trying to make things less expensive, try to help people at their pocketbooks and tackle inflation, but i did just want to note on what phil was saying about this back and forth with republicans on the debt ceiling is that a white house official texted me today that it was the republicans, quote, walked into the trap and that essentially the president was trying to get them to respond to what he was saying so that way, he could, as he just said right now, he admitted, negotiate wi
of a violent insurrection. joining us now are the family members of officer sicknick, his brothers ken and craig, sicknick and his brother gladys. thank you all for getting up with us this morning to talk about this. i imagine hearing those text messages of what they were saying in realtime behind the scenes is pretty frustrating. it was. it was i thought it would get easier after almost two years of this, but it s getting harder and harder, especially after you learn new things that are coming out. it s extraordinarily frustrating. the president is supposed to represent the country and we re so far been overall a pretty good world example of how to run things and with the last administration that went right out the window. and you ve listened to those the lawmakers last night talk and his own staff testify that he had opportunity
