people at a buffalo supermarket in 2022. it marks the first time biden s justice department has sought the death penalty, and victims families are having mixed reactions, listen. it just shows the privilege once again. once again, he is protecting federal custody. once again, they ve got to decide which jail he will go to, which is now federal, so to never have closure, to always be in this circus is exhausting and exasperating. joining us now is mark talley, his mother, geraldine talley, was killed in the shooting. mark is now the executive director and the founder of agents for advocacy, he is also the author of the book 514: the day the devil came to buffalo. mark, thank you so much for joining us. you have been through so much, your family has been through so much, you don t necessarily support doj s decision here, tell us why.
researching the next duty station, what neighborhood you want to live in, what school district you want to get to. you start transferring your prescriptions, medical stuff to a new doctor s office. that happens right away because you never know when your orders are gonna get escalated. you start saying good-bye to folks, quitting that old job and looking for your new one. to get part way through that process and then being told you are on indefinite limbo, you might be stuck in a hotel somewhere, that s exasperating to say the least. those orders are not optional, right? definitely not. we don t have geographic self-determination about where we end up. sara straighter, appreciate your time. thank you. important to hear about sacrifices that military families make every day to keep our country safe. house republicans using testimony from hunter biden s former business partner to go after president biden. what he told lawmakers behind
response to the shooting from the white house and we are waiting for but responding to these tragic mass shootings has been a routine feature of president biden s administration, specifically this year. he has had to respond to really multiple sometimes back to back. so we know that president biden has used these moments really to call once again for gun control measures, including assault-style weapons ban. now, it appears that the shooter used an assault an ar-15 really at that allen outlet mall. so this is something that president biden is likely going to talk to. but we know with the current congressional makeup that is unlikely to happen. so president biden once again will wake up here at the white house to a nation in mourning. victor, amara. jasmine wright, thank you. let s talk more about this with cnn national security analyst julia kiem. it s so ex asperating.
anything, anybody in this town. even the epa, he s like if you don t feel safe. give me a break. whatever. [laughter] thank you for having me on though. i appreciate all of our towns around here, bessimer, darlington the, they all need your help, sedgewater, send it to the volunteer fire department. we appreciate anything we can get because we don t know what else to do. neil: hang in there, tracy. that seems like a cliche but, man, oh, man, what you re going through. we re going to continue to talk to residents throughout the show to the give you their sort of ground s eye view of what s going on. in the meantime, congressman rick drawford of arkansas joins us crawford. an ideal gentleman to have on. congressman, you heard what tracy was saying. no one is getting, is talking or communicating with her, and it s the exasperating. it absolutely is.
