Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. President trump faced withering criticism from both democrats and republicans for his initial response to the racist violence in charlottesville, virginia. The president at first refused to name the hate groups involved, instead blaming the violence on many sides. Yesterday, he took a more forceful tone. But based on the events that took place over the weekend in charlottesville, virginia, i would like to provide the nation with an update on the ongoing federal response to the horrific attacks and violence that was witnessed by everyone. I just met with fbi director Christopher Ray and attorney general Jeff Sessions. The department of justice has opened a civil rights investigation into the deadly car attack that killed one innocent american and wounded 20 others. To anyone who acted criminally in this weekends racist violence, you will be held fully accountable. Justice will be delivered. As i said, on saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms, this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence. It has no place in america. And a isave h sai cdolor ofy our skin, we all live under the same laws. We all salute the same great flag. And we are all made by the same almighty god. We must love each other. Show affection for each other. And unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must rediscover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as americans. Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs. Including the kkk, neonazis, White Supremacists and other hate groups that are repugnant s toy american es. We are a nation founded on the truth, that all of us are created equal. We are equal in the eyes of our creator. We are equal under the law. And we are equal under our constitution. Those who spread violence in the name of bigotry, strike at the very core of america. Two days ago, a Young American woman, Heather Heyer was tragically killed. Her death filled us with grief and we send her family our thoughts, our prayers, and our love. We also mourn the two Virginia State troopers, who died in service to their community, their commonwealth, and their country. Troopers jake cullen and berke bates exemplify the very best of america. Our hearts go out to their families, friends and every member of american Law Enforcement. These three fallen americans embody the goodness and decency of our nation. In times such as these, america has always shown its true character. Responding to hate with love, division with unity, and violence with an unwavering resolve for justice. As a candidate, i promised to restore law and order to our country. And our federal Law Enforcement agencies are following through on that pledge. We will spare no resource in fighting so that every american child can grow up free from violence and fear. We will defend and protect the sacred rights of all of americans, and we will Work Together so that every citizen in this blessed land is free to follow their dreams in their hearts and to express the love and joy in their souls. Thank you. God bless you. And god bless america. Thank you very much. The president left without taking questions. The department of justice opened a federal civil rights investigation into the weekends violence in charlottesville. Attorney general Jeff Sessions discussed this on cbs this morning. Why when many republicans criticized him was the president s first instinct not to speak out against White Supremacists and neonazis . Look, he gave a statement at a press conference apparently, already scheduled on veterans issues. It was a long statement about violence, bigotry, hatred. Condemned it, called for unity in our country. He called in ous to gus to get with one another. Love and affection. Under the american constitution. What he was strong about that. It was shortly after the event happened. Within a couple of hours, actually. From him, sure knowing about it. So i thought that was strong. And yesterday, his own spokesman explicitly condemned by name the nazis and kkk. The spokesman not the president. [ overlapping talking ] his own spokesman said that. I just think we are making too much out of this. Fair enough. Thats why we are talking to you. It is wrong to make moral equivalency between the two groups of protesters is it not . Absolutely. These people, Heather Heyer was out protesting racism, bigotry. She has a right to do that. That this individual had no right to drive a car into them. And kill people, killing her. Injuring others seriously, some of them very seriously. This is absolutely unacceptable. It cannot be countenance, the president directed us to get after it. Our fbi people are working on it assiduously. The civil rights divisions are focused on it. Justice will be done. We are coming after these people. It will not be tolerated cannot be tolerated in america. This is believed to be the largest white supremacist demonstration in a decade. We looked at the data. In fact between 20012016 there were three times as many fatal attacks by rightwing extremists than islamic extremists in the u. S. What is the Justice Department need to be doing . Justice department is focused on that. I am briefed three times a week by the fbi on terrorism and terrorism related issues. That includes briefings on domestic terrorism. And we will continue to focus on that. It will be a high priority of the department of justice. Mr. Attorney general, if there are statues of robert e. Lee in alabama should they be taken down . This will be decided by the state of alabama. What would you recommend . My recommendation as attorney general of the United States, the cities, counties, states have a right to decide their monuments. And that nobody should use violence to stop them. Either way. You would not advocate they should take them down . It is up to them to decide. Mr. Attorney general, Lindsay Graham said that, White Supremacists and hate groups believe they have a friend in the white house. Do you believe that is the case . If so, how does that get fixed . I dont believe that its the case. The directions i have gotten from the white house is what i believe and what i believe. That we will not tolerate this kind of hatred and violence. We will not allow these extremist groups to obtain credibility, morally, legally, theyre unjustified. In their actions. And approach to american democracy. It cannot be countenanced. Will you make issues in charlottesville a priority for you and the department of justice . It absolutely is. No bigger case right now that the we are working on. Every resource needed will be dedicated to it. We are going to stud gee what happened. See if we can do better in the future. And ill be asking that we do that kind of thing today. As the a matter of fact. Well have our top people, in charlottesville. T stains happen. And they happen easily. The other side of this. Is they can be removed. Easily. Spray and washs.
