A very good morning to our viewers here in the United States and around the world. It is thursday, june 24th, and we are beginning with some Breaking News here. There is a massive Search And Rescue operation under way right now in south florida, after a highrise building partially collapsed in the city of surfside, this is near miami beach. Emergency crews are shifting through huge piles of rubble. Er following reports people may still be trapped in the debris. The collapse happened about 2 00 a. M. You would think people would be inside sleeping. Dozens of rescue units from the miamidade area are now on the scene. Leila santia we do is live on the scene. What is going on there . Reporter this is an upscale Beach Community north of miami beach with a mixture of old and New Buildings just to give you an idea of the area but i want to show you behind me, you can actually see in the neighboring buildings that rescue crews are on balconies, we see flash lights so we think theyre inside as well checking and searching the neighboring building. This large building that you were seeing is the neighboring building, so the collapse, the partial collapse happened just behind that building where we still see Search And Rescue teams working hours after this collapse. There are 80 rescue teams responded, as i was driving in this morning, the streets were blocked off quite a large radius ar around the area. Listen to what one Property Owner said. Theres got to be people that were there in these units. I mean, its like whats going on . I dont know if people were able to get out or heard something or what but its, man, i just hope people were not in there, people were out. So the big question, who was inside, if there was anyone inside, how many injuries and or casualties. We are still working to get that information but from where we stand what is so sort of shocking is the response to it and the rubble that now is left behind there. There is a lot of debris in the area of where this building was. This building comes up as a Condo Building and were still trying to figure out sort of the history of it, and see what may have led to this collapse. John . Why did it collapse, how many people were inside, how much of the building is simply rubble. All of this coming to light as the sun comes up there. Leila i know youll keep us posted as we get new developments. Thank you very much. Were turning to infrastructure, where a deal has been reached on capitol hill, here in just hours, a Bipartisan Group of senators is going to meet with President Biden to talk about this deal, after announcing that theyve reached a tentative agreement with the white house and this includes how to pay pour it. A big breakthrough on one of the president s biggest policy objectives, though of course there are hurdles and potential land mines that linger. Lets talk about that with lauren fox joining us live from capitol hill. This is good news but its tentative. Reporter thats exactly right, brianna. They have to sell it to the president of the United States. Hed ultimately be the one who has to sign it but white house negotiators yesterday were part of this discussion with the Bipartisan Group. They held several meetings over the last several days with the group of bipartisan lawmakers trying to find consensus on how to get an Infrastructure Deal and what the holdup had been was how to pay for that. One of the Sticking Points over covid relief funds as well as issues it would raise if you went after people who had not been paying their taxes. Those issues seem like they have resolved at this point, and so i think that one of the key things to keep watching is how the rest of the senate reacts to this deal. Remember, these are ten lawmakers in a room with white house negotiators. This does not represent the broad swathe of democrats or the broad swathe of republicans. We still have to see whether or not they can sell this proposal to their colleagues and we dont have all the details yet of how they want to finance this payment. One thing we do know is its about 1. 2 trillion, 579. In new spending but there are new questions whether Progressive Democrats will be willing to support this deal if they get Assurance Moderates will back a democrats only proposal coming around. Leaders met with white house officials to game out exactly what this will look like moving forward and there is a commitment to pursue the bipartisan effort that allows democrats to pass another Infrastructure Bill with just democratic votes. Theres still a lot of moving pieces here but a breakthrough last night getting this tentative deal. Today is a critical day for the bipartisan effort to pass Police Reform. Tell uts where that stands. Reporter tim scott said this was june or bust but remember today is the last day of the Senate Session in the month of june. They want to get an agreement in principle and depending on who you ask, theyre getting closer, but do they actually get there in the next 12 or so hours . Thats the big question. If you asked dchls yesterday they still need to get the details on paper. You can go back and forth for a long time what the language should be even if you have a general idea where both sides want to go. The Sticking Point is can they get agreement on paper in the next 12 hours . We still dont know the answer. Lauren fox live from capitol hill, thank you.

President biden there talking about the nationwide surge in Violent Crime and homicide and announcing a plan aimed at getting legal guns off the streets and increasing resources for Police Departments and communities affected by this. Lets bring in darren porter, retired new York Police Department lieutenant and expert. And lieutenant, i want to start with you there, what President Biden did in a way was take a step back and say we have to be able to talk about all this and address all this. We have to be able to say yes, there is a disturbing rise in Violent Crime over the last year or two, but yes, we can also talk about Police Reform at the same time. So talk to me about how you think hes addressing the crime part of that. Well, when you look at the meteoric rise, more specific to gun violence, something needed to be done. He is at a deciduous stage in his presidency. However its necessary when we look at the Trajectory Of Gun Violence Flyinging our United States, something needs to happen and needs to happen now. One of the things i commend him for doing, he was willing to enact funds from the america the 350 billion that was going to america and i thought that was a great thing. It focuses on hiring additional officers, in addition to that spotlighting how atf, Alcohol Tobacco and firearms can assist in connection with targeting gun dealers illegally selling firearms, also specific to straw purchases a tremendous piece. In addition to that, just based on my experiences being a prior nypd lieutenant we did something we refer to as proffer agreements, arrested people on a low level and we climbed the ladder to get to the big fish. Thats the enhancement stage the president is focusing on. Taking money for covid relief and shifting it, thats the idea towards Police Departments to local Police Departments. Hes talking about Police Reform. I wonder what you think of this complete picture of what hes doing. Its a hard know toneedle to. They fundamentally disagree with adding more police. Take the money and put it toward social services toward the mentally ill or housing and education, and that way we can build up and support communities and we wont need as many police because if you have a hammer, then everything looks like a nail. So this is where its quite complex because as we emerge from covid, we know that the literature tell us in the summertime, crime does tend to spike because were out and about. Its hot. We know with rising unemployment, obviously crime spikes as well so we have to, as darren says, get crime under control in cities but how we do it is the complex piece with biden because so many people feel like the money allocated to more policing is actually not the road that we need to go down. How important is it to be able to explain why theres been this rise in crime over the last two years. I mean its a myriad of factors. We know the literature tells us unemployment is a direct correlation to increases in crime. I think a lot of parents should be concerned because we focus a lot on city crime and whats going on in the summer. Once students go back to school, sadly, we cannot go back to a mass shooting at our Public Schools every single day, which is what we saw precovid. This is the complex issue that i think mayors and folks in washington and joe biden are trying to figure out because we have so many legal and illegal guns on the streets that are in the wrong hands of so many people but how do Police Departments tackle that in a comprehensive way because so many folks argue we cant just keep giving money towards policing because its clearly not working. How do we figure out where to allocate the resources in a more wholistic fashion to get this under control. How do you see that looking at the root cause where the violence could be coming from. Covid plays a part in that. People have gone through hardship mental health, economic, social stressors. How do you look at that, the root cause how this is impacting crime in the root causes in many instances are socioeconomics. Socioeconomics are i want to say the point that we need to focus on. We need to employ greater resources in these socioeconomically and impoverished communities. Its not just policing, but there are other additives such as afterschool programs, assistance for the mentally ill, and these are issues that have gone overlooked for years on end, and so im a strong proponent in pairing police with social workers and other mechanisms within government to assist in the process, because its not just an enforcement aspect, but its multifaceted and thats what we need to approach this from, because oftentimes, we looked at Law Enforcement as the component that we get it done, and it just hasnt worked, and as we revolutionize as a society, we need to understand and study history because history will rear its ugly head if you dont Pay Attention to it. Therefore, its very important for you to understand whats happening in history in the past that hasnt worked, so you can retool and go in the appropriate direction. I understand the money President Biden is saying should be used on Law Enforcement isnt just necessarily hiring more police. Could you use it for other programs that may help mitigate some of the crime. Well see how cities decide. Was bill bratton a commissioner . He was for a period of time. He was with us two days ago and he suggested a shift in policing in his mind from proactive to reactive, that where we are right now he says police are being forced to be only reactive, whereas before they were proactive. What do you think about that . Thats absolutely true. We need to have a more proactive perspective in policing but you also want to marry that into Technological Innovations. Its not just having the officer go out and engage with the public, but we want to use more camera systems, shot spotter, a technology whereas when a shot is fired the police would automatically be deployed. no longer just having that officer on the corner, but you can have that proactive perspective by marrying the Technological Innovations because we as a society are moving in that direction. The average person is photographed approximately 100 to 200 times a day in a place like new york city. Question capture that information and provide it to law phone,ment not from an Enforcement Perspective but to low us better understanding of whats happening, what is the temperament in that community . Therefore we can address it accordly. Thank you both so much for being with us. This only scratches the surface, this is a discussion well have all summer and symptom time to come. Thanks for being with us today. Thanks. Breaking news out of miami, a highrise building has partially collapsed. There are the images right now.
