Commissioners. this system should be managed by people who know exactly what war is and why cynicism and bribery in times of war is high treason. reporter: he said that those who replaced them would essentially be veterans from the front, people who were amputees, who perhapsed experienced so much injury they couldn t return back to the front line. i think ukraine s bid to ensure those sending their young to the fight know what their fight truly entails. this comes after a lot of days of bad news to some degree. yes, ukraine says it s still on the front line moving forward, some good news in the southern offensive, they say that they are making important but small gains around the town but also the previous nights have been tough. we ve seen awful video from zaporizhzhia where there was a children s playground hit by two ballistic missiles, but also, again, this night sirens in kyiv and news emerging that attacks in the west may have been focused upon a training center
Coalition, a group founded by the reverend jessie jackson. he earlier today jackson said biden does need to provide some answers. and he said the critique was on point. but biden will be here trying to court these black activists, black voters which make up a good chunk of biden s support as he s heading into this 2020 race. and earlier today we have also learned that atlanta s mayor is endorsing joe biden. it s unclear when exactly she agreed to this endorsement, whether it was perhapsed timed the release of it to that rocky debate purchase last night. but that s certainly a boost that the biden campaign is looking for after his performance last night some people said was shaky. thank you for that report. we ll be back to where arlette is as soon as joe biden starts speaking live there. and the former vice president
Well. it s now over to jerry nadler. he will be speaking in the 2:00 hour. you ll be hosting that. what is the pressure on nancy pelosi now? the bombshell story today was mueller s report in person trying to clear up and sharpen some of the points made in the report. the big news is he s not going to testify, certainly not of his own will. that means by mid afternoon, maybe not be 2:00 but all the story will move to the hill because mueller is finished. he s done what he can do. he said i didn t indict because i m not allowed to. it was so clear and not put out by the report by barr. in fact, it was blurred over. in terms of obstruction, i didn t do it but i can t. hear is all my report for use for congress to do what they are constitutionally allowed to do and perhapsed require to do in the sense of taking the responsibility for not doing it. in other words, pelosi has to make the move now. you can t say for months we said we want to hear from this
Such a callous sentence that is totally understand necessary. then less than two hours later at the white house, the president basically made the same bogus claim. do you have any idea when the mueller report is coming down, are you anxious to see it? again, it was proven today. no collusion. no collusion. no collusion. there has not been collusion, and it was all a big hoax and you know it. you know when you lie to the special council it was perhapsed an attempt to obstruct the ability to find out if there was collusion. there is one set of problems involved paul manafort, and those problems are clear, but there is another set for president trump and those problems are more complicated. joining me kristin welker from the white house. tom winter our head of investigations reporter, and
