again, as we do the investigation, we have all thes questions and we want to answer them. be three more questions than answers after officials at the texas department of safety hold a news conference on thursday regarding the shooting at the b elementary school. the officers on the scenery changing as the investigation i ongoing. the spokesperson is joining us in just minutes and we will ask them the questions on everyone mind tonight. let s go right to the scene where we are reporting live fro uvalde. good evening, shannon. so many questions right now. barry few answers to help this community that is becoming rowing lee frustrated what is happening right now. so many of these people are directly impacted by the shooting that unraveled just behind me at rob elementary school. a lot of frustration going back to videos like the ones you re watching right now. they showed shot up the bus dea during this mass shooting and were trying to not only can answers but figure out what
Know in the heat of this horrific situation. want to read something from the atlantic tonight. the headline is corporate the police. it appears that the uvalde law enforcement was unprepared. and in uvalde they seem to have expected the standoff just as authorities had expected police forces should trade for lightning response and announce in advance that the automatic reaction to events like this is not to wait a second before going in and trying to kill the shooter. my impression was after columbine, that was the policy that if there were kids in ther any shooter or shooters were in there, that law enforcement would go when you are the expert . what do we need to know. that is exactly the protocol. after columbine that s exactly what law enforcement did. they made tactical plans throughout the country and
$33 billion aid package from the u.s. that would include weapons, armored vehicles, et cetera. how much of an impact will this have on the fight, do you think? i think it will be really important because it s $33 billion you don t spend in a week. this is for a prolonged fight lasting months. and basically what the americans are saying to the russians is, we are not going to allow your implicit nuclear threats that putin made the other day in terms of talking about a lightning response we are not going to allow those nuclear threats to coerce us into not supporting the ukrainian government. so i think this ties in with the secretary of defense s comments that russia needs to be permanently weakened. i think the americans are in this fight for the long haul. they re not in it directly. they re trying to avoid that. but it is about defeating the russians in ukraine and making sure they re permanently weakened. and the way to do that is to give the ukrainians the necessary tools to de
Systems, particularly in the direction of robogini which fell to the russians, a town north of where i was, anderson. they were being ham jertd back with multiple rocket launches. ukrainians are rushing reinforcements to those front lines. clarissa, vladimir putin saying there would be a lightning response if anyone else got involved in the fighting here. it echos what lavrov said. one of our guests last night said what else do they have to do other than make these kinds of threats. there s nowhere else to go other than make these threats. it was ominous some of the language president putin said. we have all the tools including ones that no one can brag about but i m not going to talk about what tools those are. so it s unclear is this sort of
Ukrainians have been firing back with multiple rocket launching systems, particularly in the town a little to the north of where i was, anderson. they were being hammered back with multiple rocket launches and ukrainians are rushing reinforcements to those front lines. clarissa, vladimir putin saying there would be a lightning response if anyone else got involved in the fighting here. it echos what lavrov said. kind of rattling the nuclear saber. one of our guests last night said, well, what else do they have to do other than make these kind of threats? there is there s nowhere else for them to go other than make these threats. yeah, it was definitely really ominous, anderson, some of the language that president putin said. we have all the tools, including ones that no one can brag about, but i m not going to talk about what tools those are. so, it s unclear, is this sort of sci-ops?
