Perhaps none is more constitutionally dire than the threat to the vote later this year. It goes without saying that voting in 2020 is going to be very, very different. This november, for many of us, it wont be safe to go to the polls. I am almost 89 years old. I am 83 years old. Im 93 years old. Im 98 and 2 months old and i dont want to have to choose between my right to vote and my desire to live. Luckily, there is a simple solution. Voting by mail. To do that, we need congress help. When were dieing to vote, we would much rather just vote and not die. For one thing, it is simply not safe. For huge swaths of our electorate to leave the safety of their homes, and to stand in long lines to vote. In this week democrats tried to do something about it, but as is so often the case, they met fierce resistance from republicans. On friday, the house passed sweeping legislation called the heroes act, which provides states with 3. 6 billion to boost election infrastructure and allow every americ
Go from Public Places and coming within three feet of other people. Critics alarmed by hickoxs defind have launched an online petition to have her nursing license revoked. You are looking at live pictures now from outside of the house where its possible that hickox may speak to reporters. Stephanie gosk is with us. Lets talk to her really quickly. Do we have any advanced word on what ms. Hickox will say . Reporter we dont know. Certainly this is a victory for her camp. There are certainly restriction as cording to this order. This order is pending a hearing that will be coming up, which could potentially reverse it. But for now, these restrictions on her leaving and going out in public as well as this idea that she could only go out and be, as far as three feet from people. The judge determined that is unnecessary. The only restrictions that are necessary for her right now is this direct active monitoring which includes a Health Official checking her at least once a day, as well as che
One of them. Never in my wildest dreams. And where the Movement Goes from here, more than 20 officers injured, hundreds of protesters arrested across the country overnight at black lives matters protests, raising questions about what it will take to bridge the divide between police and the lives they are sworn to protect. But we start in dallas where this afternoon we are learning new details about the shooter that could change the focus of the investigation. I want to bring in now nbcs tammy litener in dallas. Tell us about the eerie details the shooter leaving messages in his own blood. Thats right, frances. We now know he apparently left a final message. He wrote the initials rb on a note in his own blood in a parking garage. Its unclear what it means. Investigators are trying to figure out if it ties into the shootings, may be a piece of clue as to why he did this. We do know now though there may have been some evidence this shooter was delusional. During the police chief he said d
Surprise moved into a pr conversation about how the trump team would position this and what they could say about this that no one to my recollection asked. So whats coming next from the russians, how might we stop it, whats the future look like. Good morning and welcome to a. M. Joy. In a move that has donald trump rage tweeting all morning, former fbi director james comey is spilling all the tea with a new book and media blitz starting tonight. Telling his version of events surrounding the 2016 election in the early days of the Trump Administration. While it may be seen as an attempt to clear his name, comey is after all the man the clinton camp blames for their loss. He pulls no punches when it comes to donald trump. In his book he describes in detail trumps attempts to bring him into a mafia like political family that values loyalty to donald trump above all else. The quote, forest fire, that is the Trump Administration. Trump world and its allies in the gop are already on the attac
Election. One of the most stunning parts of the indictment is the timeline. According to the indictment, while the spear fishing operation against the dnc, the d triple c and Clinton Campaign chairman john podesta began in march of 2016. On page 7 of this indictment, it reads that russian operatives attempted to access email accounts used by Hillary Clintons personal office for the first time on july 27, 2016. That date is significant because it happens to be the same day that donald trump said this. I will tell you this, russia, if youre listening, i hope youre able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Meanwhile the white house says the putin summit is still on. Even as democrats demand trump cancel. If he and his team are not willing to make the subject of this indictment of russian interference a top priority in the meeting, then the meeting should be canceled. I wouldnt trust what he says there. Maybe theyre plotti
