i appreciate the fact that we have a combination very important a police departments and fire departments in our chair and ranking member. i support both, in terms of the vital work that they do. coming from texas, and coming from houston, and being in the eye of disasters we have had to rely upon the teams working together. let me give a brief anecdote, as i raise my questions to the witnesses that are there. i was in the united states capitol on 9/11. i was told by, then capitol police, the first voices we heard to get out and run as we saw them doing their job. it was well known that the first level of information was not any information, because we did not have the connectedness that we needed. rumors were, they were headed towards the white house, the capital, the state department and as well, that they were headed to houston texas because it was the energy capital of the world. i firsthand understand clearly, and contrary to my dear friend from louisiana, mr. higgins, that we cities and communities, we support police with funding. we understand, and you should understand, that there

the walnut creek police department's bomb squad is investigating as well. kron four's haaziq has more details. >> a man tried to set off a bomb, blew himself up. that is how a resident describes being notified by antioch police who were going door to door, giving them the option to shelter in place or voluntarily evacuate while the bomb experts secure the area. it happened monday at around 07:30am, and 2 out. police received a 911 call about an adult mills dead body being in the street ne out. police dispatch. >> received a call. the subject down and the area of west 17th and a street. >> antioch police strategic communications officer daryl saffold after investigating the area and the preliminary investigation of the body. >> there appeared to be wires located near the victim. so the walnut creek, the police department's bomb squad, was notified along with the atf and the fbi. >> a 6 block perimeter was set up to investigate the incident. classes were canceled at eric and live oak high schools. temporary lockdown were placed on antioch middle school in fre

the state department is leaving it up to russia to disclose. we do know it comes to a tense day as the united nation security council meeting happening in new york city. a meeting requested, you saw a diplomatic brawl playing out, the two sides accusing each other fuelling the tensions of ukraine and fuelling the unfolded crisis we see what's happening. listen to the representative for russia says and the push back when thomas greenfield who was from the united states. >> they themselves are provoking escalations. >> you are almost calling for this and you wanted to happen and you are waiting for it to happen as you want to make your words reality. >> we heard that we are calling for this meeting to make you all feel uncomfortable. imagine how uncomfortable you would be if you had 100,000 troops sitting on your border. >> this is not aboutantics. it is not about rhetoric. it is not about u.s. and russia. what this is about is the peace and security of one of our member states. >> now wolf, comments were very striking, the first time we see it p

no wonder there is so low morale amongst all of our departments. this is what happens when you allow soros-backed candidates, george soros backed candidates have liberal policies under so-called bail reform, which is a conduit to increase crime in our communities. it's a fact that when you are weak on crime, when you continue to push these social justice warrior programs, that are designed to trap people in poverty, in dangerous situations that you're not going to give them an avenue to get out. that is what this entire administration is all bout and for jen psaki and this administration say they are tough on crime, they don't support defunding police, where were they last march we were fighting tooth and nail in the house as nancy pelosi voted to defund police? they were nowhere to be found. in fact they were cheering. same thing with the chicago mayor. she was nowhere to be found week after week after week when people were getting murdered in her community. now it's a political problem. now she is speaking out. elizabeth: and democrats in the sen

and the former, he was white house and state department official. thank you for your time. only 18 other countries, i believe, have been granted bas ally status by american presidents. what does it tell us about how the u. s. v is cattle it's. it's an important recognition by that in the united states of the, the role that country plays in the world in the region. first of all, in the middle east, in terms of what country has done to help problem solve diplomatically some of the most intractable problems in the region. in terms of energy security got or places you very unique role in the world where they have liquefied natural gas, where other countries relock must rely on pipelines. cancer can, can ship it anywhere in the world, providing a country with a unique status for energy security. so the united states is seen cotter time and again step up to the play and be a vital country for stability and security in the middle east and around the world . so for the united states, it's really a long overdue recognition of, of gutters role. there's not that much practical impact,

fukuda: san francisco, sure their public health department is also monitoring it carefully, as has happened in the past. if there are patterns that start to appear again, i'm sure they will be looking at policies. kristen: what i'm asking is, because i hear a lot of parents bringing this up. if i can go to a gym with a stable cohort, is in the same people who are vaccinated, working out together, why does my child have to wear their mask if the child is vaccinated in the classroom with a stable group of kids? what is the difference? parents hear the outcomes are better for children. should they catch covid. is that not the case? dr. fukuda: as of now, that is not. what we are advocating for, to catch covid, it is not like the past chickenpox parties we had before. the hospitalizations of children are continuing to rise. the data from september to january, i think it was 18 from the national academy, showed 7000 children that were hospitalized with covid, and the data was on the rise still. i understand the sentiment. i think that we are being very cautious in terms of our recommendation. as

trump's legal team and 14 of those so called alternate electors have been subpoenaed and we know the department of justice is also investigating. we're learning today that his chief of staff already did. he cooperated with the subpoena all while trump is still not only defending insurrectionists criminals but now making new promises. >> if i run and if i win, we will treat those people from january 6th fairly. we will treat them fairly. if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly. >> did you hear that? we will give them pardons. as ari would say, taking pardon is an admission of guilt. the bigger picture is trump using the frame of maga rioters for politics. he's not condemning the insurrectionists but siding them over the feds. more than 700 now charged with crimes as serious as sedition conspiracy. we know the january 6th committee is eyeing trump. weighing a critical referral based on his actions. he's invoking race, trying to stir up his base. >> if these radical shs vicious, racist prosecutors do anything wrong or illegal, i hope we'll have

do you think it is time to overhaul how the department of labor does the survey? ms. psaki: i have no prediction for any changes to how the processes run, but i can tell you is we are looking in preparation for the friday jobs numbers. we will get the monthly jobs report for january on friday. the way the jobs numbers are calculated is every month is complicated, but there are some simple things to understand. if a worker without sick during the week the survey was taken, because the data is taken over a week, that is what the monthly job numbers is based on, they are counted as having lost their job. that is not an accurate depiction. that is how it is calculated. because omicron was so highly transmissible, nearly 9 million people called out sick in early january when the job stated was being collected. the week the survey was taken on january 12 was at the height of the omicron spike. we just want to prepare people to understand how the data is taken, what they are looking at, and as a result, it may show job losses because workers were out sick from omicron at the

and this month, how they don't strike on a capital, kill 3 people on sunday, the us state department as the americans to create consider any travel to the united emeralds, siding threats of missile attacks. the situation is becoming more dangerous because the nature of weaponry that's being used in these attacks is becoming more deadly. and that's all the more reason why one hopes that the parties will be able to find some way to resolve this contract. this conflict. by the promise he has yet to solve this original conflict that has been going on for years and created the world's words to human italian crisis. mom a lot, bob al jazeera, some odd, a senior us state department official says all sides of the 2015 around nuclear. do you have tough decisions to make? with indirect talks and during the final stretch. the official also warned iran is shortening. it's nuclear breakout timeline, or the time it expects to have weapons grade uranium in ways, but a quote, extremely dangerous. talks of being held in vienna to bring tear on. and the us back to the g p a with both sides outlining t

funding is great, every every department would love more funding, but it's not about that, it's about the policies and they are linked to the progressive d.a. and people are putting it together coming to her that young widow on friday in her closing statement she said i hope that the new district attorney is listening to you through me. and she named him, so everybody is putting this together. it's not just on fox news. it's also happening at the border patrol. same issue, you are not allowing us to do our job and fulfill our commitment that we had sworn to america. >> jesse: greg gutfeld. >> greg: the one thing i noticed about the jen psaki stuff, i am an expert in sarcasm, when you don't of an answer and you know that you are wrong, you use sarcasm. i mean stop it, she basically was a tweet, her response was a tweet to actual facts, so she did it sarcastically. it's weird, because we live in a free country with free speech and we feel like we know and we see everything, even including with our own eyes, we will see things and people will meet with sarcasm. it's really kind of a new

infrastructure and then's an oncology department with a host of drugs and others awaiting to be approved and we're trying to find legitimate enterprises that have traded just as poorly as those who don't have any of these attributes at all. >> jarred holtz of oppenheimer guy, where do you stand on this. this sort of gets back to the conversation that we started the show with with the arc innovation names at some point these things are going to bounce. the feis did you want -- i think 99 -- if you look at what we talked about, i hasn't get -- are morgan stanley just upgraded the stock as well and anusolation. c-jen, one names he brought to the table is really -- >> bonawyn, who you get in bioforecast? >> it's one of the cheapest in the group and it's a bit later tage i can understand buying the tier so you want to make sure you're in the top >> very, very -- what would you do here? >> i would skwik being in rernlgon certainly has fared well for covid so the code of ab cook stale seen as the preverdicttive in a status quote. i think if you look at their future in oncology it's very optimis

we have chief janine nicholson from the fire department and staff for public work. i think he is here from public works. we also have several staff on standby to answer any questions that we may have. with that, welcome chief nicholson. >> i don't have chief nicholson here. >> is anyone here from the fire department? or perhaps we can bring up brian dolph from public works first. [ indiscernible ] i was asked to provide a few opening remarks. would this be appropriate? >> i am a regulatory specialist with regulatory affairs with public works. >> supervisor tang: thank you. >> supervisor tang: so the reason this project has come about is that it is expiring with the fire department's training facility on treasure island. this is a problem and it opens up the opportunity of consolidating the various training facilities that the fire department has. there is one south of market as well. the fire department had identified a parcel in the far southeast of the city on the coast. the owner of the parcel, however had a very short timeline for selling. they wanted some infor

. >> reporter: over the last year, the department has opened its first ever field offices. the intelligence unit has doubled in size, and improved the training of its analysts in an effort to ensure something like the 6th never happens again. is it hard for an intel person who's delivered a report, much of it came to fruition, to then see the result on january 6th? >> of course, it is. i mean, that was a difficult day. to see what happened. i was listening to the police radio when that was happening, and to hear the officers' screams and everything that happened that day, it's very difficult. >> reporter: now, chief manger tld a senate hearing yesterday that january 6th exposed critical deficiencies in the capitol police, which are all being addressed. among them, a shortage of about 450 officers. the overnight news will be right back.

they believe that the department let them down, that the department's lack of operational planning resulted in injuries, deaths, and i know that a fair number of officers still to this day are not satisfied that there has been accountability. i would, again, point out the fact that the following day, the chief, the sergeant -- both sergeant of arms were no longer in their positions, and all the other leadership that has left the department since then, so -- but i do understand from the officers' perspective, and it's not universally bad morale, you know, in our department. there's a lot of officers that do enjoy working here that come to work and believe in their mission and believe that they are doing good work and doing important work every day. again, it's a mixed bag in terms of the offices' perspective. with regard to the memorial fund. there's good news with the memorial fund. we have just -- i know it has taken a long time, but we have now got a draft form in place so that officers who want to apply for money from the memorial fund and we have a policy in place, and it's going to go

the justice department doesn't like feeling like it's under the gun. prosecutors don't like feeling like they have to race with the politically sensitive decisions and not likely to lessen the calls for doj to look seriously at criminal charges not just against the people committing violent crimes at the capitol building but also at people associated with it. sometimes in a less direct way. >> thank you for starting us off. >>> we'll get to football therapy later in the show. when we come back, there'll be more on all of this. the ex-president's embrace of the insurrectionists and what sounded like a call to the return to the capitol. president biden's vow to nominate a first black woman to the supreme court with cynicism, racism and comments beginning today before the tyrod taylor put together an official short list. running as a republican to some these days that means encouraging the supporters to break the laws and show up at the polls armed. those stories and more when we continue. don't go anywhere. med. those stories and more when we continue do

number ten is very different from other departments, because it has a larger proportion of political appointments and it and a lot of those appointments can be very different units when you are talking about policy units, comms units, they are not integrated necessarily in the same way that you would see in other departments. a lot of the time they are looking as much to the conservative party when there are political appointments as they are to the internal workings of they are to the internal workings of the government. so it is hard to say that this is a new thing that you can therefore say intrinsically that is what led to this. she can therefore say intrinsically that is what led to this.— is what led to this. she did say that a lot _ is what led to this. she did say that a lot of — is what led to this. she did say that a lot of them _ is what led to this. she did say that a lot of them had - is what led to this. she did say that a lot of them had spilled i is what led to this. she did say i that a lot of them had spilled into the garden which she said in her report was a he

our department of justice has increased funding, put in place support for strike forces. that is a root of the president's agenda. >> the largest police union says that answer is not enough. he says i think it's wrong for miss psaki to say that violent concern is no problem and laugh it off. pretending this will not help victims. she owes them an apology. the president told 30 governors that there's money available to address crime from the american rescue plan. >> the surge of gun violence since the start of this pandemic. i made it clear that we should use funds to combat violent crime as well, including hiring additional police officers and investing in community violence interventions and improving the working communities. >> the republican governors that came raised issues like immigration and confusing cdc guidance on covid. but they said there's room for partnership on spending money, including from the new bipartisan infrastructure law, sandra. >> jacqui heinrich reporting live from the white house. thank you. president biden's trip coming as alvin bragg is taking

on sunday, the us state department edged america to reconsider any travel to the united emeralds siding threats of missile attacks. the situation is becoming more dangerous because the nature of weaponry, this being used in these attacks is becoming more deadly. and that's all the more reason why one hopes that the parties will be able to find some way to resolve this contract this conflict. but diplomacy has yet to solve this original conflict that has been going on for years and created the walls, words to human italian crisis. mom a lot, bob al jazeera, some are watching on 0 from london still to come. european complicity and the di, conditions and dangers faced by libyan migraines is in the spotlight. more athletes, a star test posted for code 19 on arrival in china, where the winter picks are just 3 days away. canada closing in on their 1st? well couple parents since 1986. ah, let's go with your weather report for europe and africa for the 1st february. hello everyone. we've got a developing disturbance in the area to see that's going to sling wet weather into greece, western south

s. department in the, in the brits are thinking themselves because he did it in 2014. they might do it again and then blame someone else. i mean, i wouldn't let it pass. these people go ahead man. well obviously it's hard to to think rationally. when you have this irrational argument on the other side, i think what's 140, perhaps east of the likely next round of talk, see russia to continue this talks is going to evolve around something that foreign minister elaborate mentioned in again response to white papers. when, you know, basically the state department said that they're not going to discuss the future of need to ukraine's potential accession tinita, which everyone knows is not going to happen at least anytime soon. and the response is suggested that russia is going to spin this issue around the concept of quote unquote, undivided security in europe and lateral who is referring to the 2 important papers that i think the rational part is going to put on the table. that is a stumble declaration of 999 enough on a declaration of 2010 that endorsed this concept. if i

country that germany really couldn't afford to take a diplomatic sundar vague as they say, essentially to depart from the path taken by the rest of the west by key allies. do you think that that is changing? and if so why no, it's not changing. but we have a challenge in front of us. we can solve the present crisis by military means by strength by pushing russia back. maybe even with military means with sanctions. but then we have to expect countermeasures from russia, which could lead to a third world war. the other way of tryg to solve the conflict is a diplomatic way. and i think that germany firmly stands on the diplomatic path and we'll try till the end if it's possible to solve the crisis with diplomatic and not military and not other means and why is the german doing this? because i think germany understands maybe other than countries like poland or great britain or the united states. that russia has a point in in in in in questioning the present european security structure. because as you remember it was 1008, the west was ready already to bring countries like georgia and ukraine into na

russia is refusing to depart margo but despite their people and the newly reelected government. in the region of ukraine, russia backed -- and ignored the ukrainian people. recently, russia has threatened to take military action should its demands not be met. if russia further invades ukraine, none of us will be able to say we didn't see it coming. the consequences will be horrific. which is why this meeting is so important today. russia's -- has killed more than 300 million ukrainians. half of which are elderly and children who need food and lifesaving assistance. devastating as the situation is, it would pale in comparison to the humanitarian impact to the full-scale land invasion russia is currently planning in ukraine. over the years, russian leaders have claimed ukraine is not a real country and questioned its right to self-determination. let's be clear, ukraine is a u.n. member stated that recently celebrated three decades of independence. it is a proud people and a rich culture. ukraine is a sovereign country and a sovereign people entitled to determine their own future w

the department of public health already requires employees to prove they're vaccinated. the county says the soo mandate is just expanding on the state's current requirements. for your money. now mcdonald is going to start offering some unusual menu items at bay area companies dominate a list of best places to work. jane king is in new york with those stories and more. >>all right. so the job site glassdoor released its annual 100 best places to work in 2022. the bay area had the most companies on this list. in fact, a headquarters companies that are headquartered in the san francisco area. so both francisco and you said it was a dominating. this is where 30 companies locally on this some of those were india also box and google will be donald says, attacking its own menu. it's going to take some of the matchups the customers of the doing for years and actually offer them on the menu at some restaurants beginning today, you can order a hash brown, 8 mcmuffin, something called the surf and turf, which is a fish sandwich and a hamburger together and then the land air and sea

i think there's a missed opportunity here for the department of justice. they made a commitment under this department of justice they would pursue crimes based on hate where people take -- use violence solely because of raise. in this case the issue of race wasn't brought up in substantial way in the state trial. we know there's evidence out there. we know rodney bryant said travis mcmichael used a racial slur. we know facebook post involving racial slurs. the confederate flag driven by the mcmichaels. sdplm why did they do that? is it because they are serving life behind bars? trying to save resources. why would they do this when the family says they feel completely betrayed by this in. >> that's great question. typically these deals are enter into as efficiently resolving cases. as victor said at top of the show, both of these defendants are already facing life in prison without the possibility of parole. perhaps to avoid a lengthy trial, the resources associated with the lengthy trial, the department of justice thought this was the way to go. again, whe

josh, we just heard from the president, from the pentagon, from the state department in the past hour. >> that's right, we're seeing a flurry of activity and communication between these nato members, including the u.s. and both russia and ukraine with the kritish prime minister expected to visit kyiv. as you mentioned, planning to speak with the russian foreign minister. they had a chance to speak with vladimir putin, the russian leader today. the focus from the u.s. has been publicly on this diplomatic possibility because of the concerns they have about playing into president putin's hands with some of the concerns that are very out front right now about the prospect of an imminent encouragement. listen to what president biden had to say a little while ago at the white house. >> we continue to urge diplomacy as the best way forward, but with russia's continuing its build up of forces around ukraine, we are ready no matter what happens. >> so you hear the white house and president biden trying to walk this fine line because behind the scenes as we have reported, they are making very c

we would love to work with downing street and can help downing street under that government departments put in place 21st century alcohol policies that will help them set an environment in which alcohol is in its place. many younger people do not drink at all, many people from different faiths do not drink at all, so a working culture that centres around alcohol, even when it is at celebrations, even when it is at celebrations, even when it is at celebrations, even when it is not working time, are actually exclusionary cultures and that is not on in the 21st century. and that is not on in the 21st centu . . . r' and that is not on in the 21st centu . ., ., ,~' i. and that is not on in the 21st centu . ., ., i. ., and that is not on in the 21st centu . ., ., ,,.. century. can i ask you one specific question? — century. can i ask you one specific question? is _ century. can i ask you one specific question? is it _ century. can i ask you one specific question? is it more _ century. can i ask you one specific question? is it more likely - century. can i ask you one specific question? is i
