Congresswoman ayana pressley. [applause and cheers] good morning, beloveds. Today i am thinking of the ancestors, not just the ones reported in our history books, but the ones omitted from those pages.

espionage act, obstruction of justice and criminal handling of government records. no one has been charged with a crime that we know of as of now. this just in, the democratic chairs of the intelligence committee and the oversight committee and the house have written a letter to the director of national intelligence saying they want a damage assessment, and briefing regarding these documents recovered from mar-a-lago, and of course trump and his allies are of course spending and peddling wild conspiracy theories about the fbi search at mar-a-lago. the theories range from ridiculous and laughable to down right dangerous. cnn s daniel dale joins me now to talk about this. trump is saying all the fbi and the department of justice has to do is ask for these documents back, and there would have been no problem at all. all they had to do was ask, and that post on his truth site. does that align with what we know? it does not at all align with what we know, jim. we know ther ....
