sam brock joins us from maui. good morning. what s the latest there? reporter: good morning. it s almost 6:00 a.m. local. today starts with the same weight. the confirmed death toll is 115. as you talk to folks here, it s not like they each know one or two people who are unaccounted for at the moment. many know 10 to 15, lending credence to the idea the death toll could climb by the hundreds. officials say it s too premature to speculate on that. as far as on the ground, there are buildings that are layered that have to be pulled, layers taken off so the structural integrity can be ensured. then forensic experts can go inside. in the sea, we have dive units who arrived to search. there is the issue of job loss. i spoke to a woman yesterday. she s from mexico.
by his baby mama. must get hechting with all the crying and typier changing and the baby s a handful too. [laughter] greg: ha. it s because he s ole, right? there are have been several sights in d.c. lending credence to the thierry that he s living with pops to hide from process servers and his ongoing child support fight with the former slipper. the white house is a great place to hide. it s the last place we saw chris wallace. either way, if hunter s shacked up at the white house they can finally sterilize his room at the motel 6. wow. mean while house oversight committee chair or hoc cc james comber says at least a dozen biden family members will be exposed for having received money from foreign entities. made it sound like the bidens aren t used to being expose
a happy new year as well jason chaffetz. thank you so much for joining us today. happy new year, thanks. alerting to this now. president biden pivoting from the messy covid response to foreign policy. he is scheduled to speak with russia vladimir putin today. their second known call this month. senior administration officials say president biden is prepared to offer a diplomatic solution as tensions boil over. russian troops are amassed along the ukraine border. dan hoffman says the president needs to show strength. we re framing the narrative as putin would wish in terms of de-escalation. he will charge us for that make no mistake. by framing it that way we re lending credence to vladimir putin s unrealistic demands. the biden administration first and foremost needs to reframe the narrative in terms of russia s aggressive threats toward ukraine and stopping
bipartisan commission had a lot more support in the house and more generally by republicans than the ones we are seeing with the january 6th committee. what is interesting you pointed out, he was against the commission. he understand this is because he didn t want something coming out during the election where republicans were forced to be responding to trump constantly. now that this committee is doing work anyway, he is saying, yes, of course, we want to know. we do know mitch mcconnell was very angry with donald trump after january 6th. so this is his way of lending credence with what the suggestions he wants to know what s coming out, even if he did not want responsibility for what was going to come out of the commission if senate republicans supported it. mcconnell strikes me, i found the jana goldberg piece refreshing, he says something everyone knows, which is not a huge swath.
