Crisis, a National Security crisis. No way around it. Im particularly distressed that he is resigning. This administration abandoned those core american beliefs. And the list continues. These are comments from democrats and republicans. This is a monumental night in our country. General mattis, one of the highest ranking members of the Trump Administration and one of the most important military leaders in the world had the courage to take a stand and tell the world how he felt about the president and his administration. He didnt do it as an anonymous oped in the new york times. He didnt pretend it was for personal reasons. He was direct. And in his Resignation Letter, mattis wrote, while the u. S. Remains the indispensable nation in the free world, we cannot protect our interest or serve that role effectively without maintaining strong alliances. He goes on to write, i believe we must be resolute and unambiguous in our approach to those countries whose Strategic Interests are increasin
Kavanaugh lltwill also get time answer questions. Borris sanchez is outside trump tower in new york where the president arrived a short term ago. Jessica, we know the time and place of this hearing, but beyond that there is still a number of things that need to be worked out. There are still several sticking points for blasey fords attorneys, but the committee doesnt seem to be bundle. So blasey fords team, they want more witnesses. And right now the committee is only scheduled to hear from blasey ford herself as well as judge Brett Kavanaugh. Blasey fords attorneys floated this idea of bringing in trauma experts to testify as well as people who were supposedly at this party. But Chuck Grassley has issued a lengthy update about it saying the committee has been investigating for the past week or so and they have talked to all four people who were supposedly at this party and all four of them including judge kavanaugh saying they have no recollection of this alleged party where blasey fo
Her clothes in 1982 is expected to be interviewed by the fbi as part of this reopened background check. We also know the investigation will not include kavanaughs overall drinking history, which has come up in these allegiances and agents who that i can their direction from the white house will not be making any conclusion about witnesses and what witnesses actually say. Instead the white house will get the results and they will decide how to proceed. No guarantee the investigation will be made public. For more, i want to bring in former federal prosecutor, ellie honing. I want to get your raekeaction. Thats surprising and problematic. Any limitations the white house or any politician places on this investigation is seriously problematic for two reasons. First of all, we need all the facts. When we start placing artificial limitations, were not going to get the entire story. The second thing is legitimacy. The American Public needs to see this investigation and believe that its real an
Guys who wear bow ties, something youth and fun, a word that definitely embodied my uncle. Also among the dead, cecil and david rosenthal, members of a center in pittsburgh for the disabled which put out this statement, saying in part, quote, cecils laugh was infectious. Most of all they were kind, good people with a strong faith and respect for everyone around. Then there was 97yearold rose mallinger, the oldest victim. Despite her age, a friend said, she was spry and vibrant, someone who had a lot of years left. Then daniel stein, 71. His son posting online, quote, my mom, sister and i are absolutely devastated and crushed. Our lives now were going to take a different path, one we thought would not happen for a long time. So many stories tonight. As we learn more about the paths of those who lost their lives, tributes are pouring in. So lets go right to cnn sarah side ner there in pittsburgh where those people gathered this evening to support one another in this attack. Who were kill
You think matters. Theres zero chance Stephen Miller is putting ideas in this president he doesnt want. He likes the harshness of the message that you come here, youre going to lose your kid. Youre going to have to find them. Were going to send you out of here and youll be telling stories that will be waking you up for weeks. He likes that. He thinks it will be a deterrent, it will keep people away and more and more of Trump Supporters are saying something ive never heard americans say before, not mainstream americans, that lady liberty, thats not a law, thats not a policy, thats just a poem. Ive never heard that in this country before. And everything hes saying is the Asylum Seekers, many people who came as immigrants were seeking asylum, people who were probably saying that, who agree with the president. If were all full up, whats next . Are we going to stop families from having children if were all full up . Weve seen societies do it. Im saying it makes absolutely no sense. Stop hav
