we begin with brand-new video from the pentagon, showing the moment a russian fighter jet collided with a u.s. drone over international waters. the stunning footage shows the jet approaching the drone, dumping fuel as it gets closer. then striking the drone s propeller before it plunged into the water. the defense department also released these images, one first showing the propeller attacked, a second photo showing the damaged propeller. the kremlin had said the u.s. downed the drone. well, we know that s not true. the video clearly is a receipt for why that didn t happen. almost immediately following the crash, russia sent ships to search for debris. we don t have warships there anymore. biden took them out. our top military brass is doubtful they will find anything, recovering usable intelligence, because that part of the black sea is some 5,000 feet deep. still the incident is very troubling. here s general mark milley, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. so so was
side. and, the january 6th hearing that was set for this morning aimed at trump s influence on the department of justice has been postponed. we ll tell you what s next for the investigation into the insurrection. good morning. welcome to way too early on this wednesday, june 15th. i m jonathan lemire. we re learning new details about the next january 6th committee hearing which will now take place tomorrow afternoon. a hearing originally scheduled for today has been postponed. congress woman zoe lofgren said it was stemming from an overwhelming demand on staff to produce the videos they have been showing during the hearings. as for tomorrow s hearing, the focus will be on former president trump s efforts to pressure his vice president mike pence into overturning the 2020 results. vice chair of the committee liz cheney, republican, teased ahead hearing new video she posted to twitter. the select committee will examine president trump s relentless effort on january 6
Has officially finished. The defense only called two witnesses. And yesterday, rested their case. Former President Trump did not testify in his own defense despite telling the press multiple times he wanted to. You testify in your trial. Yeah, i would testify absolutely. Its a scam. Its a scam. Are you going to testify . Yes. Will you testify . No he wont stop. He the gag is not to testify. Do you plan to testify in court . I probably so. I would like to. I mean i think so. I mean, theres a story of his life, who shocked me can nobodys shocked. It is a guy who said of course i am going to testify, you knew he was not going to testify for a couple reasons. One, he is just a walking perjury machine. Seriously . You got a new Ice Cream Machine that you say makes ice cream. The mcreamy by ninja. And creamy, yeah, well, he is a Ninja Perjury Machine right . You stand in front of it for a couple seconds. I will never look at the creamy the same way. It creates instant perjury and so we all k
rates, respiratory issues, heart disease. this is something that folks are dealing with every day. we do need this administration to take bold and decisive action, and that is what the immediate phase out of fossil fuels, and i just manage transition. that way we can claim renewable energy. sorry to interrupt. i want to get to this point by showing you two conflicting headlines. both of which are actually true. take a look at the first. one biden administration, oil, gas, drilling approvals outpace trump s. that s a little hard to read. on the right side it says, biden s first year, or a robust record of climate action. how do you reconcile those two things? a voters did a lot to get president biden into office. we were and these, we were happy about [silence]
he ll only punch you in the face once. we should have listened to robert gates before the good people of this country voted president biden into office. he s horrible on foreign policy. this is a very scary time. this is where weakness meets desperation. he s telegraphing weakness, not strategy, certainly not strength, and certainly not something that would keep us out of a hot war with a nuclear superpower. russia is backed up against the wall militarily, economically, and desperation is not the best position to have them in, because they are now like a caged animal who s going to lash out. unfortunately i don t trust this administration, and frankly the military brass, and i don t buy their excuses about the depth of water and, you know i think there s a lot of it we re not getting straight truth. i don t trust this commander in chief to give it to us. that gives me pause and fear for the future of a very hot and
