Chuck schumer is taking steps to bring the bill to the floor next week. And if it fails, house speaker nancy pelosi is warning democrats may go it alone, strongly signaling that she will approve a democraticled house select committee if the bipartisan bill fails in the upper chamber. With no commission, many of the biggest questions about the day may go unanswered. At least by this forum. Like what did former president trump say to kevin mccarthy during their phone call that day? and what exactly was the president doing as the violence unfolded at the capitol? also this morning, a u. S. Capitol police officer on the front lines that horrific day is slamming republican leadership for not supporting the bipartisan commission. This officer anonymously sent a letter saying it represents the views of 40 to 50 of their fellow officers and writing in part, it is inconceivable that some of the members we protect would downplay the events of january the 6th. Let s begin on capitol hill with lau
We will be anticipating potentially updates throughout the day on how this is going on. But right now, of course, there will not be a joint press conference between the u. S. President and putin at the end of the day. Separate indeed. Thank you. Multiple issues are involved in this meeting today between these two presidents. Joining us to explain what some of those issues are, national security correspondent kylie atwood. Tell us what we anticipate, kylie. Wolf, i want to go through a number of issues we expect the two leaders to discuss. Let s start with cyberhacking. This is perhaps the most highstakes, challenging and urgent issue between the two countries right now given what we have seen by russian hackers, russianbased criminal groups, cyberattacks, ransomware attacks against u. S. Federal agencies, u. S. Companies, a gas pipeline along the east coast here in the u. S. This is something we know president biden is going to discuss. It s something that president putin has already d
singled out a suspect in the killing of capitol police officer brian sicknick in the attack on the capitol on january 6th. the fbi has found someone on video of the attack who appears to be responsible for the death of officer sicknick. we will have more details on this big break in the fbi s investigation of the killing of officer sicknick after we begin with coverage of the breaking news in the house of representatives tonight. the house rules committee is voting right now on the $1.9 trillion biden covid relief bill that includes an increase in the minimum wage to $15 an hour. house speaker nancy pelosi was disappointed in last night s ruling by the senate parliamentarian, elizabeth macdonough, that an increase in the minimum wage could not be included in the biden covid relief bill as part of a budget reconciliation package because of the unique parliamentary budget rules of the senate, rules that do not apply in the house of representatives. it wasn t the first time in h
emergency use authorization. it is a game changer in our year-long battle to contain this virus and now its numerous variants. if the fda green lights it tonight, the single-dose vaccines roll it as soon as monday. overnight, the house advancing president biden s $1.9 trillion covid relief plan to the senate. the house passed it 219-212. the president calling on the senate to get the job done so stimulus checks can be sent to americans. we have no time to waste. if we act now, decisively, quickly, and boldly, we can finally get ahead of this virus, we can finally get our economy moving again. and the people of this country have suffered far too much for too long. despite recent polling that finds a majority of americans, democrats and republicans alike, approve of more covid relief, two house democrats still voted against it, zero republicans voted for it, over a dozen of those republican no-votes came in by proxy because the members were down in florida speaking at cpa
trump to testify. will the impeached ex-president s attornes cancel his testimony? what we are learned in the wake of the capitol attack. my interview with senator warren on the fast start from the biden administration and her push to keep it going when all in starts right now. good evening from new york. just over an hour ago, the house of representatives voted to strip republican congresswoman marjory taylor greene of her committee assignments. this is a rare occurrence. it might be unprecedented. we can t tell. it looks like we can t find an actual precedent for this. in all the recent instances when all this has happened, when members were removed from committees by their own parties, it happened because the party removed them instead of the house. the threat of removal from the whole house did not stop congresswoman greene from the racist and violent conspiracy theories that got her into this situation in the first place. yesterday, she was throwing around conspiracy
