National gave two of the hijackers. This is key because families of 9 11 victims have been demanding answers on saudi arabias involvement, suspected involvement for years. Now they are eagerly awaiting the release of more documents in the days ahead. A chance of getting some closure 20 years after their Loved Ones were taken from them. Cnns Alex Marquardt is here with me. How much do we know from this new document . I do think this goes to some extent to, i think, take care of some of the feelings some of these families have had. But they want more information than perhaps were getting. Feelings and suspicions. The question of the ties between these hijackers and the saudi government. What this document does, it cements the ties between two of the hijackers, the first two who arrived in the states and Saudi Officials in Los Angeles. Its heavily dere dacted. A lot of it is the summary of an interview the fbi did with a saudi who is unnamed in this report in 2015. He was he had been a consular official. And it talks about the ties that he had with two people in particular who provided significant logistical support for these two hijackers who arrived in southern california. This unknown unnamed Saudi Official was in touch with omar al bayoumi. He was suspected of being a saudi intelligence agent. The fbi said he offered travel assistance, Lodging And Financing to these two hijackers. Two out of the 19. This Saudi Official was also in touch with Fahad Al Thumairy who allegedly tasked this saudi person with assisting those two hijackers. He was, thumairy was a local imam who also worked at the saudi consulate there. So you do have this strengthening of the relationship between two saudi consular officials and these two saudi hijackers, the assistance that was offered to them. But by no means is there a Smoking Gun that ties the hijackers to any senior level of the saudi government or royal family. Doesnt sound as though the government was in on it. Were not anywhere near that level of Detail Or Evidence at this point. And how are 9 11 families reacting . Weve seen some of their reaction comes in . Were not even close to that but the 9 11 families are justifiably, understandably happy with the fact that these documents have started coming out. This is going to be a process. They did very quickly put out a statement saying this puts to bed any doubts about Saudi Complicity in these 9 11 attacks. Im going to read a bit more of a statement. Even with the unfortunate number of redactions it contains a bombshell of new revelations including numerous Saudi Officials in coordinated effort to mobilize an essential Support Network for the first arriving hijackers. Al qaeda and the hijackers, the contacts at critical moments is stunning. Theyll be very eager to see what comes out in the remaining documents from the fbi. The families deserve to have answers. What weve seen so far is alarming. It is very alarming. I think these families are justified in wanting these answers. Alex marquardt, thank you very much. During a visit with firefighters to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of 9 11, Donald Trump repeated the false claim that he won the 2020 election. Great support. We won the election but what are you going to do . We are fighting like hell, were going to keep fighting. You see what happens because elections do have consequences. Nobody ever thought a thing like this would be possible. New Cnn Polling shows a majority of republicans, 63 , support having the twice impeached former president as the leader of the party but they are more evenly divided when it comes to whether trump will help them win back the White House. Trump has said its an easy questions too whether Hell Run again. He just isnt ready to answer it yet. Of course he may just be teasing us along as he so enjoys doing. One person who knows him well is his nice mary trump, author of the reckoning, one Nations Trauma and finding a way to heal. Mary, the book looks fascinating. Just like the last one you wrote about all of this. Based on everything that you have seen from your uncle in the last few days, i guess the question is are you even more concerned about his mental wellbeing because i think what we saw yesterday in the Fire House was just another example. He just cant give this up. The Sore Loserism that just is blanketing his party right now. Unfortunately, i dont think people who support him see him as being a sore loser, even though he is, of course. Because its a lie that he won the laelection. He lost decisively by almost 8 Million votes. The problem is that hes continuing to be supported by republican leadership or at least not criticized by them. They are not taking a stance against his spreading the first Big Lie about the election. Theyre not taking a stance about his second Big Lie about the insurrection, and last i checked, nobody pushed back on the fact that on the 20th Anniversary of the worst tragedy to hit this country, he was commentating a Boxing Match to line his own pockets. Right. I want to talk to you about that, what your uncle did last night. He gave Color Commentary at a payperview Boxing Match on the 9 11 anniversary. As someone with a degree in clinical psychology, i wanted to get your take on him doing that on such a somber anniversary. This is bizarre. But its entirely in keeping in what donald always does. He doesnt understand dignity. He doesnt understand tragedy. He doesnt understand anything that doesnt pertain directly to him. And he will always push the envelope as long as hes allowed to. And this is the problem here. Hes always allowed to. Hes always allowed to get away with it. So you and i might think its bizarre behavior because it is for any decent Human Being, but one, hes not a decent Human Being and, two, whats the wheres the pushback . Nobody raised their voices on his side of the aisle against that appearance so he will continue to get away with whatever he can get away with as long as they let him. Yeah, and i hate even bringing up the subject of the former guy on 9 11 anniversary weekends like this one, especially one as important as this one, but the polling showing how he is favored by so many republicans right now is really just unbelievable. And then when you see what he said this past week about the removal of the robert e. Lee statue. We can put this up on screen. He said in virginia, a, quote, embarrassment. We are suffering because we dont have the genius of a robert e. Lee. He also said in a statement, except for gettysburg, lee would have won the war. All of this is just rife with civil war revisionism. If only we had robert e. Lee to command our troops in afghanistan, this disaster would have been ended in a complete and total victory many years ago. Where do you start . Its just baffling, and its brainlessness and just craziness. And its dangerousness because people listen to him and, shockingly, as you say, 63 of republicans want him to be leader of their party. He seems to forget the fact that for four years he was commander in chief and did nothing but weaken our position in afghanistan, first of all. Secondly, he clearly knows absolutely nothing about american history. Robert e. Lee was very far from being a brilliant general. And beside whiches, robert e. Lee was a traitor to this country who was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of americans which sounds very familiar so maybe thats why donald identifies with him so much. And maybe he identifies with the fact that hes a loser. He lost trump lost. Theyre both losers. Let me ask you about the book, mary. You talk about trauma. This country has been through so much trauma. You discussed this moment where your uncle famously ripped off his mask during his bout with covid. Lets talk about that. You believe he was afraid in that moment. Why . Because he was very ill and, as somebody who had very bad asthma as a child, i know what it looks like when somebody is struggling to breathe, which he clearly was. But beyond that, in my family, showing any kind of weakness, even if its succumbing to a virus is considered fatal. You dont ever want to admit any kind of weakness at all. And he was probably quite afraid that he was not going to be able to either to pretend that he was okay or continue to recover, which ultimately he did, but i saw a completely terrified man who didnt know what to do in that moment. And one thing you share in the book is that after you first learn your uncle had been elected president you spent a few weeks at a Treatment Center to figure out why his elevation to the White House had undone you. What did you learn . I think it had mostly to do with the fact that knowing donald as ive known him my whole life, hes a deeply unworthy person and it just felt like a lot of times in our lives the worst among us has the most success, is the person who is elevated, is the person who is allowed to get away with everything. And again, that goes back to what you said earlier about donalds identifying with lee as a loser. Robert e. Lee, despite what he did, was pardoned in the early 1970s by gerald ford, and he had a career as a College President and was not really punished for his treason. Donald is in the same boat. He has created all sorts of horrible situations for people in this country, and he continues to roam free and make things worse for peoples lives because hes not being held acc accountable. So this is how we wind up in these situations while the rest of us are left to flounder. And i just want to go back to where things are right now with your uncle. I guess you dont spend a whole lot of time speaking with him. You may not be exactly sure how hes doing financially. But it is rather odd that he would be doing Color Commentary for a Boxing Match. I mean, theres talk about having to abandon his hotel here in washington. Any sense as to is he in dire financial straights right now . What is your understanding about this . He certainly is behaving as if maybe things arent so good right now. Yeah, i have no Insider Knowledge about that, but what i do know is that donald is absolutely terrible with money. Hes driven more businesses into the ground that i can count, including casinos. Hes hundreds of millions of dollars in debt. Debt which is going to be called very quickly in the last in the next two years, i believe. And he cant make money. He throws good money after bad, time after time after time. He has enormous amounts of debt in his golf courses, et cetera. So i would not be at all surprised that his Teasing A Run is simply a grift to make money. Clearly yesterday, only the most desperate person i would hope would do Color Commentary in a Boxing Match on the 20th Anniversary of september 11th, but, you know, i dont really put anything past him, and i do believe these probably in some serious financial trouble. And i not to drag this point on. It is sort of depressing for the country, the fact that a former President Cant be involved with the other former president s on something as important as a 9 11 anniversary. That struck me as well, mary. Yeah, it is depressing for most of us. The problem is he doesnt care about anything but his base. And his base probably views that also as a sign of strength that he is independent and he is the one who is telling the truth and standing strong against all of these other traitors probably in their minds. And its a big problem because most of us really do understand whats going on. Most of us understand whats at stake and what this country needs and most of us understand what we need to do in order to help our fellow citizens. Donald, however, keeps stirring up the Paranoia And Fear of the, i guess, almost 40 of people who support him which is making the rest of our lives visible. All right. Mary trump, i think you nailed it there at The End. Thank you so much. Appreciate it. You are the author of the Re Reckoning our Nations Trauma and finding a way to heal. Thanks for joining us. Thank you. Coming up next now to Capitol Hill. The u. S. Capitol are recommending disciplinary actions in officers responding to the January 6th insurrection. Suzanne malveaux is on Capitol Hill for us. What more can you tell us . Jim, that statement was released this weekend and it started off with 38 internal investigations. Of the 38, there were 26 of those cases they were able to identify officers out of the 26 they deemed that 20, there was no wrongdoing in those cases. So you are really talking about six cases here. What do they include when it comes to misconduct . Three cases of Conduct Unbecoming of u. S. Capitol police. One failure to comply with directives. One improper remarks. One improper dissemination of information. Now none of these acts were deemed criminal or necessary to be followed up by the Justice Department. You might recall, jim, back in february, there were six officers who were suspended with pay while these investigations were going on. What could they be talking about here . They dont provide details but we know that it was dozens and dozens of Video Evidence and anecdotal evidence of that day, January 6th. And so you did hear stories of an officer taking a selfie with the Riot Ors or another officer perhaps donning a maga hat, a Trump Serpt hat, that these things may have occurred. But in The Big Picture what the police department, what the Justice Department wants people to know and remember is that it was 1,200 Capitol Police personnel who were there. Many of those officers beaten, tortured and tasered. We saw and heard the testimony here on Capitol Hill. And so they want to put it in context. They say the six sustained cases should not diminish the heroic efforts of the united states Capitol Police officers on January 6th. The Bravery And Courage exhibited by the vast majority of our employees was inspiring. We should also note, too, five deaths, one officer who had a stroke, suffered a stroke and died afterwards, four who died by suicide. Now there are more than 600 of those rioters, attackers who are facing charges because of their actions of January 6th. Jim, i can tell you, there is a great deal of concern and worry about a rally that is coming up. That is saturday, the upcoming saturday, september 18th. That is when we expect to see the sympathizers of those who have been charged for the January 6th attacks. And so tomorrow, well see House Speaker Nancy pelosi and her republican and democratic counterparts meeting with the Capitol Police chief to discuss all the precautions theyre going to be taking regarding security, what kind of measures. They say theyve got communications enhanced between the various departments. And, jim, they might actually decide to put up that fencing again, at least some of that fencing, to bolster this building and many others that might be in some sort of danger, jim. Probably a good idea. Suzanne malveaux, thanks for that. Coming up the doj taking action where the Supreme Court would not, suing texas over its sixweek abortion ban. Can they make the case .

Its the lone Star State versus the White House and the lawsuits have only just begun after President Biden announced new Vaccine Requirements. One that Greg Abbott vowed to fight. And the Supreme Court refrained from blocking the nations most restrictive abortion law. The Justice Department sued saying Texas Sixweek Ban on abortions and accompanying Bounty Framework is unconstitutional. Lets begin with the abortion law. Specifically written with these core challenges in mind. They try to design a better mouse trap, it seems, from that standpoint. Do you think its going to survive this barrage of lawsuits, and what are your thoughts on how this is playing out right now . I dont think it can survive at all. And certainly all the legal scholars ive talked to have said the same thing. I dont think it was intended to survive, which is really the perversity of this whole thing that people that have been sworn to defend and protect the constitution have come up with this construct with vigilantes and bounties in order to subvert that constitution. It cant last. This is something that just cant be this way. But that wasnt the intent, i dont think. Even as we sit here now, there are clinics that are closing. Women having to flee the state. Thats already happening . Thats already happening in the state. And its not right. And it is to me, its such a misuse of power and it goes against the oath. Lets go back to what governor Greg Abbott said when asked about the provision about, you know, rape and incest. Even if a woman is raped, under this law, she essentially has to carry this pregnancy to term. He brushed that off. Heres what we had to say. Lets make something very clear. Rape is a crime, and texas will work tirelessly to make sure that we eliminate all rapists from the streets of texas by aggressively going out and reefting them and prosecuting them and getting them off the streets. So Goal Number one in the state of texas is to eliminate rape so that no woman, no person will be a victim of rape. Are you seeing any such effort under way to completely eliminate rape from occurring in the state of texas . Youd like to see that happen, but the suggestion of the governor has known all along how to rid our state of rape and just wasnt letting people know is obviously outrageous. This is unfortunately, something that is part of our society and now to adopt a law that says someone has to go to term with that pregnancy is not something that is supported by the people in the state. On the flip side, the governor suesing the economic argument to fight the vaccine policy. He tweeted this. We can put this up. Bidens Vaccine Mandate is an assault on private businesses. I issued an order protecting texans right to choose whether they get the Covid Vaccine and added it to the special session agenda. Texas is working to halt this power grab. Today the Surgeon General said companies are relieved by the announcement. How are businesses in austin reacting to this right now . Well, i think that most businesses are welcoming the indication that they can go ahead and enforce a vaccine ban. Its quite the opposite. If youre wanting to open up the economy, have events, you have to do masking. You have to do the vaccinations. No one has a right, i believe, to put other people in danger. And thats what the governor is defending as opposed to the right to be able to be safe and to live and, quite frankly, to keep your businesses open and functioning. So it is a real perverse place that were in right now. It gets more surreal in texas by the minute. And the president was kind of going after the republican governors on all of this. Lets watch. Let me be blunt. My plan also takes on elected officials in states that are undermining you and these lifesaving actions. Right now, local School Officials are trying to keep children safe in a pandemic while their governor picks a fight with them and even threatens their salaries or their jobs. Talk about bullying in schools. If theyll not help, if these governors wont help us beat the pandemic, ill use my power as president to get them out of the way. It sounds like the president wants to have this fight. Good idea do you think . Its like the cavalry coming over The Hill in texas to have the president doing this. Hes absolutely right. We have local School Boards, elected by the neighborhoods trying their best to keep their children safe and now theyve been sued by the Attorney General for these local policies, local determination, trying to preserve this local Freedom And Liberty interest to keep your kids safe. And our state is on the wrong side. And how are your hospitals doing right now . Icu beds, it sounds like they are filling up quickly as a result of the delta variant. Whats it like . Just to give us a sense of what its like on a local level. We were at a real Crisis Point a couple of weeks ago. The numbers have started to come down. Even with that, our icus are overextended. All i can say is thank god again for local governments, local School Boards that have really moved forward with the masking and the vaccinations that everybody knows works. I was in our icus the other day and virtually everyone there is not vaccinated. This really is a pandemic of the unvaccinated at this point. And we had someone, a texan, 47 years old, die of gallstones because he couldnt find a space in a hospital to take care of him. Thats not right. All right. Mayor steve adler, thanks for coming in. Good to see you in person. Well get down to austin as soon as we can. Please come. Show some respect. President biden. Thats his message as he takes on unruly Airline Passengers who refuse to wear a mask. The best youre the best by Joe Esposito [triumphantly yells] [ding] dont get mad. Get e trade. Hey google.

Its being fought in courtrooms, School Board meetings and maybe even your local grocery store. But the war over wearing masks seems to be at its most heated and dangerous in the air on those airlines prompting President Biden to call on travelers to, quote, show some respect. Cnns Brian Todd has more. Did i get in anybodys face . Did i get in anybodys face . All these people on a plane. Reporter a man argues with an officer over wearing a mask on board a flight. Then refuses a request to get off. Im not leaving the flight. Reporter this video posted on instagram shows a passenger on a Jetblue Flight in a rage over mask wearing rules. Jetblue says he and another customer were asked multiple times but would not comply with the federal mask mandate. Youre leaving. Sit down now. On this American Airlines flight, a passenger later cited for public intoxication confronts a pilot. The man does sit down, then starts chewing on his mask, then growls at the flight crew. He was arrested when the plane landed in salt lake city. Its not clear if this incident was related to the rules for wearing masks on passenger flights but what is clear, out of more than 4,000 incidents of unruly passengers reported by the faa so far this year, about three quarters of them involve disputes over mask wearing rules. We dont stand up, its only going to get worse. Reporter its gotten so bad that President Biden has announced the tsa will now double the fines passengers will have to pay if they break the rules. The president getting personal sounding exasperated. And by the way, show some respect. The anger you see on television toward Flight Attendants and others doing their job is wrong. Its ugly. Could the new fines curb this kind of behavior . I think it potentially could. The airlines and Flight Attendants unions have been calling for harsher penalties. They want to see criminal prosecutions, not just the civil fines. More and more Flight Attendants fear for their safety. The head of a prominent flight attends union weighing in on the causes. Pim are coming to the door of our aircraft in a combative mood. Theyve been led to believe the Safety Precautions we have in place are a political issue rather than a public health necessity. And it has created this atmosphere that we have never seen before. And what can very quickly turn into a moblike behavior. Reporter but one Industry Analyst cites other factors. People letting loose after not being able to fly for months. Alcohol intake. And just people who are maybe frustrated or stressed out because their flights have been delayed and had to deal with all the extra Precautions Pause of covid or restaurants being closed, fewer services on board and people ending up at this higher Stress Level that boils over. Reporter analyst David Slotnick said one thing he worries about is if another Covid Variant starts spreading which could lead to stricter rules and more unruly incidents. But stricter rules could be coming anyway. White house officials now saying theyre not ruling out mandating Covid Testing or requiring proof of vaccination for domestic flights. Br Brian Todd, cnn, reagan national airport. People telling to vote but then telling them to leave one question blank. What could go wrong with the democratic strategy in the California Recall .

Hell join him for a rally in california ahead of the Recall Election on tuesday. Newsom has been on a Campaign Blitz urging voters to keep him as governor and recent polling shows his efforts may be paying off. Natasha chen joins us from Los Angeles. Governor newsom is actually asking voters to leave half of the ballot blank. Thats puzzling but maybe theres a good reason behind it. What can you tell us . This ballot only has two questions but can get confuse chicago is in the Newsom Campaign wants them to focus on the first question which asks voters whether they want Governor Newsom to be recalled. If the majority says no then he stays in office. If the majority says yes, thats where the second question becomes important. That one asks voters who should replace newsom if he is recalled. It lists 46 candidates to choose from. Heres where it got hairy in 2003 when Gray Davis was recalled and schwarzenegger took over. They were told vote against the recall but also vote for the Lieutenant Governor as an alternative. That got very confusing. So this time around they are keeping it simple. Just answer the first question to vote no and that is what were hearing from the voters here in beverly hills. They have told us in this very leftleaning area that they are voting against the recall. And they tell us that its primarily because they want to keep California Leadership out of the hands of republicans. I think more than Gavin Newsom, i believe in the democratic rights and what democrats stand for. So although hes made many mistakes, i want a democrat in office. I think were so divided in the state and its frustrating to hear both sides and the division within like our own friends. And while there are a lot of pressing issues that the voters are thinking about, including wildfires and the homelessness crisis, were hearing that mainly people are concerned about the pandemic response. They are concerned that if a conservative like Frontrunner Larry Elder on the other side takes over, then elder has talked about rescinding a mask mandate, rescinding Vaccine Requirements and so Thats Something they are very fearful of. They like the way that newsoms leadership has responded to this pandemic. Thats the Way Theyd like to keep it. A couple of voters told us today they would prefer the devil they know than the angel they dont, jim. There certainly would be major, major changes afoot in california if Larry Elder were to become the governor and democrats sound optimistic about newsoms chances but when the president of the united states comes in at the last minute, that means it may be just close enough democrats need to pay attention.

All across the country, the Battle Over Mask Mandates has turned School Board meetings into screaming matches. Opponent admit they are using the Hotbutton Issue as a way to attack the public School System. And make fundamential social changes. Heres evan mcmorrissantoro. Reporter this board is only focused on forced Mask Mandates, raising our taxes and making our kids believe they can change their gender at any given moment or encouraging them into identifying as a zebra. Reporter when angry speakers raise hell at School Board meetings in florida, like this one, its becoming clear that, for many, this goes way beyond masks. Lets get the kids out of these governmentrun schools. These tyrants got to go. Reporter Betsy Vaughn is a School Board member. She says masks are being used as part of an allout attack on public schools. I would say there are some that really believe and there are some parents that its a legitimate concern. There are others that are just jumping on a Band Wagon because they see it as an opportunity for bringing in this is my personal opinion bringing in more people for their agenda. Reporter vaughn is right. Yeah, my constituents are pissed. Were seeing 500 to 1,000 people attending School Board meetings now that couldnt draw a crowd of 20 to 30 people prior to covid. Reporter republican State Representative Spencer Roach is thrilled that Mask Mandates are bringing new people in to the crusade against public education. I never used the word public school. I use the Term Government School because thats what they are. And should be looked at in the same context as Government Housing or government Health Care. So i think this anger really you mean like there shouldnt be government schools or what are you saying . I think as a parent, you should do everything possible to avoid having your child in a government school. Reporter roach doesnt support Mask Mandates but hes really over control over classrooms. Whether critical Race Theory or sex education, whether youre talking about school choice, Mask Mandates, bathroom policies, transgender sport policies, the crux of the debate is who is best positioned to make decisions for a child . A parent or the government . Reporter roach is pushing a Constitution Alg Amendment in florida that would force School Board candidates to run under partisan affiliation. Board members like vaughn dont represent the ideology of conservative lee county. Vaughn say registered democrat but says critics are misrepresenting what her School Boards agenda is on masks and critical Race Theory. Its not a theory that we would be teaching, you know, maybe in some advanced class, perhaps but its not the kind of thing that we would normally teach in school. Reporter florida republicans, including governor ron desantis, say School Boards have a dangerous influence. They Tie Masking to debates over things like race. Were also not going to support any republican candidate for School Board who supports critical Race Theory and all 67 counties or who supports mandatory masking of school children. Reporter roach says the momentum from the Masking Fight could put fundamental changes to floridas schools within reach. Really when were hearing from School Board members they are worried people are coming to try to dismantle the public School System, theyre not wrong. You do want to do that . Theyre not wrong. Ill tell you this. The government School System right now is a monopoly. Reporter that kind of language is what vaughn means when she says, theres a Hidden Agenda in the mask debate. It angers me. It appalls me. It s. A. Taddens me. Reporter does it scare you . Yes, you know, i taught english. I taught literature. One of my very favorite books to teach to my seniors was 1984. I see some orwellian aspects in what is happening. Reporter evan mcmorrissantoro, cnn, new york. 1984 indeed.
