M. In hill crest heights and so far police do not have a suspect or motive. Take a good look that video d. C. Police need help identifying three men that robbed a fast food joint two weeks ago. Alabama avenue southeast back on january 4 and see the video showing men walking into a subway and one of them pulled out a gun and demanded money and moments later one of the men jumped counter and stole money out of the register if you recognize the men you are asked to give police a call. An update on the deadly house fire in baltimore that killed six children. Fire officials tell us two young boys that escaped flames are improving and boys ages four and five were upgraded from critical to Good Condition<\/a> and childrens mother who also survived the fire is still in critical. And the fire broke out early thursday morning and investigators still have not determined what cause today but they do suspect a space heater may have sparked the fir thousands paying homage to Martin Luther<\/a> king jr. Clouds gathered in the district laying flowers for dr. King. Vicepresident elect mike pence was on hand with his family to pay his respects. Ronica cleary is joining us here tonight. Hey, jim, sarah, its good to be inside and going over the headlines with you guys today. Lets take a look. Well start with Martin Luther<\/a> king day. Within the last 24 hours headlines broke that set donald trump cancelled a trip to the africanamerican History Museum<\/a> saying basically backed out. It was agreed upon. Our own Melanie Alnwick<\/a> this morning she actually tweeted out she spoke with a Spokes Person<\/a> for the museum who said that there was never an official visit scheduled. Sort of you know just pointing out false headlines you want to make sure you follow up and do due diligence. Donald trump met with Martin Luther<\/a> king iii today in trump to you are and they prayed together reportedly discussed legacy of his father and then trump tweeted a message to his followers saying celebrate Martin Luther<\/a> king day and all the many wonderful things he stood for, honor him for being the great man that she was. It was the weekend that was crazy. It was. If you missed this headline well take you through it quickly over the weekend the war of words between georgia congressman john lewis and donald trump it started on meet the press take a listen to this. I dont see this president elect as a legitimate president. Now, donald trump responded saying congressman john lewis should spend more time on fivrping and helping hisdistrict in horrible shape and fol ago part not to mention crime infested rather than complying about Election Results<\/a> all talk talk talk sad. That sound bite we heard from congressman he said he feels legitimate in light of russias influence on the election. A little more context necessary and its also important to say its Martin Luther<\/a> king holiday thing that recognition of history. This congressman was interests gral part of civil rights movement. So many it is really becoming a bigger issue and divide between both sides sort of representing that and people are upset. People have pulled out of the inauguration poll intergitys and leaders because of this is tack on this congressman many say its inappropriate. We saw Anthony Brown<\/a> say tonight he will not attend. Its a couple dozen really. It will be electricing to say the least. This last headline affects us. Its a conversation that there are reports that the trump team is are canning moving White House Press<\/a> Briefing Room<\/a> from the west wing to another location. And now, this possibility has come under fire keep the press away from the president. Now according to the trump camp it would be to accommodate more reporters and at looingt weeks press conference the trump steam said there were between 500 and 600 reporters in attendance and the Current Press<\/a> room has only 50 seats. So you know you have to step back and think about that i would love to hear from viewers on that it seems reasonable to say you want more seats. But is that creating a divide or does that separate you from the president. Theyre saying its all if you moved them into eob executive Office Building<\/a> it is still technically on white house campus but nonetheless i think at home a lot of people are thinking about immediate yoo perspective and they could not careless what happens to the media and theres a lot of people thats the sentiment now. Then again, this is a chance you know checks and balances of media and well see what happens moving forward. But ill tell you id i applied for credentials to be in the White House Press<\/a> release room and i thought to myself, 50 because you know how many seats there are you think will there be room for me. You think it would be nice if there were more opportunity for more press but if theres 600 people in the room thats the other thing at some point you have to capty think before it becomes chaotic. Its an interesting conversation. Well see stay student. Thank you ronica. And we talked about intensifying feud with donald trump and congressman lewis the keynote speaker this morning. He talked about his long term fight for civil rights. And he talked candidly about his relationship with king and the legacy he left. We made a lot of progress as a nation and people but were not there yet. And the racism is deeply imbedded in american society. Never give up. Never give in. Stand up. Speak up. When you see something that is not right, and not fair, and not just, you have a obligation to do something to Say Something<\/a> and not be quiet. And as ronica mentioned congressman lewis amongp democratic lawmakers who say they will boycott trumps up august ration. Somewhere i read that the greatness of america is the right to protest for rights. And so just as i say were not going to let any dogs or water hoses turn us around were not going to let any injunction turn us around [ applause ]. Martin luther king jr. There famously pursuing equality through peaceful protest and now some activists want to reclaim him under a different image as forceful radical. Chicago branch of black lives matter pushes reclaim Martin Luther<\/a> king anden game the radical thing they dont want you to know about. In chicago they said we do dr. King a disservice when we try to tell a story of turning the other check and they think the pointed more forceful thing to the noble prize winning man who preached love over hate. To mississippi where a city is unfair for calling mlk day great americans day. The city of bill uvrmy they said they would be closed for great americans day. They passed an ordinance in 985 declaring holiday great americans day after boluxy defend today on facebook and twitter isen and dozens criticizeded move. The mayor said city council on tuesday should repeal the ordinance and recognize the holiday using the king name. Dr. King once said lifes most persistent question is what are you doing for others. He sought to serve humanity in a non violent struggle. And the hotel in d. C. He put the finishing touches on i have a dream speech where fox news kelly wright sat down with Kings Daughter<\/a> to talk about her reflecks of her fathers legacy. One of the things my father was really trying to so to us just not 50 years ago but 50 years ago 49, 48, 47, and 45 when he was assassinated, he was really speaking to us about our humanity. And understanding our interconnectedness and interrelatedness and thats why he talked about sitting down at the table of brotherhood in other words us understanding that we are one huge human family. Thats why he talked about not judging by color of skin but content of character. He also talked about extremism she said you have choice of being extremist of hate and he chose extremeest of love. Important traits in unconditional love is capacity to forgive its easy to become bit and its easy toy become angry and its very easy to want tonight take revenge. Its capacity to have the mentality that says, by destroying them a part of me is being destroyed. Because theyre part of my humanity. My dad lost his life. Look what the world gained. Each though he didnt make it to see that promise land he talked about and everybody had not made it to the promise land he talked about but there are people benefiting from the life and ultimately sacrifice that he made again that were bernice king daughter of reverend dr. King king jr. She tweeted this emotional father with caption happy birthday dad, i miss you. Dr. Kings birthday turned 88 years old. What a great photo there. Coming up d. C.
