he told jason likowsky, he says i did not shoot anyone. i think it s worth emphasizing that jason likowsky had just met the defendant, maybe an hour. there was about 11:50 at night. mr. likowsky got there at 10:45. [ shouting ] this is gaige grosskreutz running towards danger, running to try and help. this is exhibit number 3. he pulled a gun! why did you shoot him? what are you doing? you shot somebody? who shot? who shot? hey, what are you doing? you shot somebody? who shot? who shot? listen to the second thing he says. you shot somebody? [ inaudible ]. who shot? who shot? hey, what are you doing? you shot somebody? [ inaudible ]. who shot? it s hard to tell what his exact words are. i hear the word not pretty clearly in there as in i did not shoot anyone, i did not do anything. jason likowsky, he lies to. the crowd, he lies to. gaige grosskreutz, he lies to. so at this point, the crowd is dealing with what they perceive to be an active shooter, so
the january 6 select committee officially subpoenas former president trump demanding documents and testimony. the move coming as trump ally steve bannon is sentenced to four months in prison for defying his subpoena. also tonight, president biden makes a new pitch to voters and a new prediction as well. he claims the momentum republicans are seeing will tilt back to the democrats in the final days before the midterm elections. and ukrainians removed last bodies from the largest mass grave found in a key eastern city. this as ukrainians is accusing russia of planning to attack a critical dam to create a large scale catastrophe. welcome to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. i m wolf blitzer and you re in the situation room. let s get right to our top story tonight. the january 6 select committee truly historic subpoena of former president donald trump. cnn justice correspondent evan perez is digging into details for us right any. so what is the
Situation with steve bannon. he has offered not an apology, but offered regret about a single point about don trump jr. but with the president reportedly calling his friends and allies, telling them to pick between him and steve bannon, does bannon s olive branch of regret even matter at this point in your mind? well, it s very difficult to know. as we know with the president, he does change his mind actually about people and about situations. so it s difficult to know. and of course he has had a very long and very interesting relationship with steve bannon. i think bannon s position is not surprising. remember, bannon is very committed to his views on the u.s., on the future of the u.s. and u.s. foreign policy. and i think for bannon, whether he could influence the president and the united states in the course of direction of u.s. policy, whether that s within or without, outside of the white house, both of those things are very important to him. so his admittedly delayed
