House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called the white house request totally inadequate. The Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer writing on twitter, the president and his administration arent taking the Coronavirus Crisis as seriously as they need to be. Earlier monday President Trump took to twitter writing the coronavirus is very much under control in the usa and adding, the stock market starting to look very good to me even as fears over the spread sent the dow plunging more than 1,000 points.

A Police Officer exchanged fire with the shooter whose motive is still unclear. Police say the gunman is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds. And we turn now to disgraced movie producer Harvey Weinstein in the hospital overnight after a jury convicted him of rape. He was being transported to Rikers Island jail when he was suddenly rerouted to the hospital. Moments after being convicted of rape and Sexual Assault, a judge ordered Harvey Weinstein to Rikers Island in new york. But he was diverted strapped to a stretcher in his suit and sent to the hospital after complaining of chest pains. We just heard before coming on that he was experiencing some high Blood Pressure and some heart palpitations. Reporter this morning his defense team says it will appeal the verdict after a jury found weinstein guilty of the third degree rape of jessica mann in 2013 and guilty of sexually aqualitying mimi haleyi in 2006. He is a vicious sexual predator who used his power to threaten, rape, assault, trick, humiliate and silence his victims. Reporter the former movie mogul appeared stunned by the jurys decision as he was lifted out of his seat. He looked at me and said im innocent. Hes like, im innocent. Hes like, how could this happen in america . Reporter the jury acquitted weinstein on two counts of predatory Sexual Assault which carried a possible life sentence as well as a charge of first degree rape but is still facing a possible 25 years in prison when he is sentenced next month. I was surprised to hear that Harvey Weinstein was surprised at the verdict today and that he was saying, im innocent, im innocent. Harvey, i can tell you this, you were presumed innocent unless and until you were Proven Guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. That happened today. So you are no longer legally innocent. Reporter more than 80 women have accused weinstein of sexual misconduct. Survivors and activists are calling it a moment of reckoning for the me too movement. The organization releasing a statement saying the verdict is proof no one is above the law, not even those with power, money or visibility. This case reminds us that Sexual Violence thrives on unchecked power and privilege. Actress Annabella Sciorra who accused weinstein of raping her in the 1990s said her testimony against him was painful but necessary. Adding in a statement, for in speaking truth to power we pave the way for a more just culture, free of the scourge of violence against women. The d. A. Saying this case shattered myths about Sexual Violence, including myths that it only happens in dark alleys caused by someone you dont know. Advocates say they hope this case signals a new era in criminal justice. I think this case may lead to a better understanding of rape, how it can happen, when it can happen, to whom it can happen and that could embolden prosecutors and victims to come forward more and take more chances in prosecuting cases that maybe ten years ago prosecutors would have thought, they couldnt win. They couldnt win. Weinsteins lawyers are hoping to get him released from jail while the appeals process plays out. He still faces felony charges in los angeles. Coming up on good morning america, a live interview with one of his victims, mimi haleyi. New details in the case against opera singer placido domingo. A Union Investigation found whats being described as a clear pattern of abuse and misconduct. Domingo is accused of harassing and sexually abusing several women.

I wont be able to tell her how gorgeous she looks on her wedding day. Ill never get to see my baby girl walk down the aisle, have a father daughter dance with her daddy, dance on the dance floor with me or have babies of her own. Kobe was the mvp of girl dads or mvd. He never left the toilet seat up, he always told the girls how beautiful and smart they are. He taught them how to be brave and how to keep pushing forward when things get tough. When kobe bryant died a piece of me died. Now hes got me.

This is a list which will be on our website tonight of how we pay for every program that we have developed.

You know, when fidel castro came into office, you know what he did, he had a massive literary program. Is that a bad thing even though fidel castro did it . Reporter Party Members distancing themselves from sanders comments. I thought when i heard that i shivered.
