Capitol hill. And by that im referring to the socalled justice for J6 Rally where hundreds of protesters advocated without irony that the thugs who desecrated our national State House in the Worlds View should not face their deserved prosecution for attacking Police Officers or destroying the definition of public property. Because they were victims then and now, political prisoners. As always, we have a lot of news to cover tonight, but i need you to know why Todays Rally disgusted me to no end. In the last decades where weve marched and protested, just take the last few years when we protested, whether it was around george Floyds Murder last year in Minneapolis Or Michael browns killing by a policeman in ferguson, missouri, and some were out looting and destroying protocol.

Coverage of californias Recall Election. Cnn projects that Gavin Newsom easily defeats the recall, remaining in office to finish out his term. Newsom thanking california for voting down the recall saying they rejected negativity, but also saying that voters gave a thumbs up to science, to vaccines and to ending the covid pandemic. Why dont we see how this all shook out, where it is on the map. Cnns Phil Mattingly is over here. Hes joining us from the magic wall. This isnt even close. It is not even close at all. At this point in time 65 reporting. Obviously we have already called it for the noes. That means Gavin Newsom stays in office. 2. 7 million votes ahead. 66 to 33 . But here is the reality when you look at this state. Joe biden won this state by 30 points. Go back to Gavin Newsom in 2018, he won this state by 23 points.

Those who carried out this attack, know this. We will not forgive. We will not forget. We will hunt you down and make you pay. 13 u. S. Service members were killed in that attack and 18 others injured making it the deadliest day for u. S. Forces and i decade.
