police in florida now saying he was under surveillance before he vanished more than three weeks ago. >> now what? kicking the can down the road? >> and with no prospect that there will be a better resolution on the horizon in december. the important point is what a radical escalation in political conflict and what a reckless escalation of political conflict it is for republicans to have filibustered the increase in the debt ceiling. yes, it is true that democrats have voted in the past against raising the debt ceiling when republicans held unified control of government. but they did not filibuster, they said it was the majority party's obligation to raise it, and they let them do it after casting basically their symbolic vote of opposition. today mcconnell struggled to find even ten republicans who were willing to kind of step aside and let democrat do this on their own, when behind door number 2 is potential catastrophe and the global economy. and this is just a reminder to joe manchin and kyrsten sinema, who are arguing the filibuster promotes compromise. if it is this difficult to

doe to ensure florida students and educators have all the resources they need. so how would you like to respond to the governor? >> i just cannot believe that no district has, you know, reached out and said that they need every dime to meet the needs of so many things that have just happened over this whole covid, you know, era. it's just unbelievable. i would like to see proof, and i'm going to personally ask our own district tomorrow when i'm down at school board headquarters for a board workshop and a press conference that we're having so i can just clearly ask. you know, i know we're always saying we're underfunded and every dime will definitely help with the resources. so many different things have happened in just broward county school district alone, where i see it in our schools. i see it with not enough bus drivers, not enough teacher assistance, not enough teachers, not enough guidance counselors, all of these needs that need to meet our students that have, you know, been home going through covid, that their socioemotional component, feeling that achie

state attorney for palm beach county, florida. gentlemen, hello to you. mr. erinberg, i'm going to start with you. cnn has obtained this additional body cam footage from the moab police that shows gabby petito and brian laundrie after they were pulled over. this is on august 12th. so gabby is crying, clearly very upset. let's listen. >> did he hit, you though? i mean we want to know the truth if he actually hit you. >> [ inaudible ]. >> where did he hit you? >> he didn't hit me in the face. he didn't punch me in the face or anything. >> did he slap your face or what? he grabbed me like with his nail. [ inaudible ]. >> listen, gabby said that she hit him first and that he grabbed her face and that ended up scratching her, but she's obviously terrified and upset. what do you see when you look at that new video? >> good evening, don and stuart. it tells me two things. first, it answers the question that a lot of people had, whether the police on the scene got the message from the 911 dispatchers that brian was seen to be hitting gabby. remember, there were two c

our randi kaye is near the scene in florida. joins us now with some new information she's been getting. so what do we know about what the fbi has found? >> reporter: well, anderson, earlier today the fbi announced they found what appear to be human remains here at the carlton reserve. alongside those remains they found a notebook and a backpack which they say do belong to brian laundrie. we have some new information about where exactly this discovery was made. i am told by a spokesman for the north port police department that all of this was found about a two or three-mile walk into the reserve from this entrance here behind me. about a 45-minute walk is how it was described.

investigators discovering what appears to be human remains in a florida nature reserve. as well as a backpack and notebook belonging to brian laundrie. the fbi saying that the remains were found in an area that had previously been covered by water. a special agent calling laundrie "a person of interest" in the murder of gabby petito. i want to bring in criminologist casey jordan. it's just a bizarre case all around. the fbi announcing today they found what appears to be -- what appear to be human remains along with the personal items, personal effects including a backpack, notebook belonging to brian laundrie. what do you make of this? >> well, i was very surprised because i have been giving greater odds that he was on the lam, there being absolutely no evidence of him found in the preserve for the past month, covered by hundreds of searchers diligently looking and absolutely nothing found until today, when the parents announced that they're going to go look for their son in the preserve and their attorney calls the police and lets them know this, lets the fbi know. law

a source saying remnants of a recent campsite discovered in the florida nature preserve where police are searching for brian laundrie. i want to bring in now cnn's legal analyst jennifer rogers. good evening to you. so let's talk about this texas thing. this federal judge in texas issuing an order tonight blocking the state's six-week abortion ban after the biden administration challenged it. is it a big win? can you classify it that way? >> it's a big win for now, don. and it's really a big win for the women of texas who now will be able to assuming that abortion providers resume their services obtain their constitutionally allowed abortion procedures. the problem is that the state of texas has indicated it will appeal this injunction to the fifth circuit, arguably, the most conservative in the nation in terms of the federal courts. we will see what they do. but for the moment, yes, a big win because the status quo of abortion rights in america is now back in place for the moment. >> so let's talk about the judge's language in this when she made this ruling or he made this ruling, e

a board member in florida is telling her colleagues tonight that she doesn't have a problem with people expressing their opinions about school board policies but it's the personal threats that she finds intolerable. >> i reject in following me around in a car, following my car around. i reject them saying they're coming for me, that i need to beg for mercy. i reject that when they are using their first amendment rights on public property, they're also going behind my home and brandishing weapons to my neighbors, that they're making false dcf claims against me to my daughter that i have to take a dcf investigator to her play date to go underneath her clothing and check for burn marks. that's what i'm against. which is a credible threat. and calculate. >> that's the environment we're living in right now. that sums up the entire environment that we're living in now and we've been living in for the past five or six years. that kind of thinking. come on, people. the threats to school board members need to stop. we need to have civilized conversations with each other. we can agree to disagree

a detective came to my door and let me know that the van was in florida. >> that's when you said you knew, bad, bad news. >> uh-huh. >> now, what picture are these emergent details painting for law enforcement, do you think? >> well, he shows up, brian shows up in florida back at his parents' with the van, or whether it was gabby's van or his van, they were using that van. that was their traveling motel on their adventure in the west for their travel blog or gabby's travel blog. and he shows up without her. he had been living in his parents' home with her. they were engaged. they were living there. they had been there for months. certainly the parents would have said, where is gabby? >> what's going on, right, something. >> yeah. i would love to know what he said. did he say, oh, i dropped her off in new york, or -- i mean -- and then everything that followed, the parents not talking with gabby's parents does not bode well here. it just supports my belief that they know what happened. perhaps he revealed what happened. we know she was found to be the victim of a homicide and nobody i

this election next tuesday, will they pursue a voter restriction agenda like georgia and texas and florida and iowa? you know, you would to bet more likely than not. and yet he is in his kind of general messaging, he is kind of the suburban dad and wants to spend more on education even as he nods toward trumpist concerns about the way racial history is taught in the schools. i think if he wins, there are more and more republicans will conclude that they don't have to explicitly repudiate trump. especially while biden is at a low ebb and that will make it even less likely to do so. >> charlie, congressman kinzinger said isn't the end of his political future but the beginning. where do you think he goes from here? >> he has a brit future ahead of him. he is playing a long game here. he knows he's not where he needs to be within the party. a lot of us know that. things will change. and i do believe republicans must acknowledge that since donald trump was elected president, republicans have been getting clobbered in the suburbs. and that's so significant because you cannot win national electio

police searching the nature research in venn ice, florida, t nobody has seen him there. brian's parents behavior police are saying is quote odd. the state attorney, dave, thank you for joining. nearly a month of searching for brian this this reserve all because his parents said he planned to hike there in mid september. why are authorities putting all their eggs in one basket and relying so much on the parents for information? >> good evening, don. there is some evidence he may be on the appalachian trail. there was a witness there and the fbi spoke to them. dog the dbounty hunter is in de otto park. there must be evidence he was camping in the swamp land or they wouldn't pay so much attention to it. a lot of evidence is coming from the parents that's why they brought the father out there to see if they could find where brian laundrie was camping but no dice. so they're at a dead end right now so they depend on people in the community, civilians to help provide tips. >> look, this is always a telltale sign when people do this because it's not actually admissible in court

why would you do one in florida? why would you do one in michigan? because those are states that the republicans can lose. they need to suppress the vote. in my view, unless the republican party changes dramatically and gets rid of these trumpers, then they will go extinct over time. the question is when, unless, unless they can rig the process in the short term and put enough authoritarianism into our onetime democracy so that they can prevail. they cannot prevail on hate, on divisiveness, on anti-american platforms, and on everything for power, nothing for principle. they will lose, but they could win in the short term if people don't rise up, and that's an open question whether they will or not. >> you know what, grant? at this point, is congress passing a voting rights act the only thing that will protect us, you think, from those -- because you say unless they can rig the system in the short term. >> yeah. >> is that the only thing that can protect? >> yeah, i think so. but here's the good news. there's some good news and bad news. the good news

new details this morning about what investigators found in a florida nature park while searching for brian laundrie. >>> and as nicaragua soon heads to the polls for election, the

this woman in florida says her husband's death led other officers to get vaccinated. does she think it should be mandated for officers? >> reporter: she does not want it to be mandated, but she wants more information out there. and she thinks the discourse in the country has gotten too c cantankerous. people send their vaccination cards to her to show they decided to get the shot after her husband died. you see the two police units behind me. those are two of the squad units from his patrol unit. these officers really care about what happened here. but at the same time, it doesn't seem like anyone wants to be forced to take the shot. and that is happening across the country. >> can you tell us anything about the dispute in the chicago police force? >> reporter: you're seeing this robust response across the country. you see officers in miami and san francisco talking about not wanting to take the shot. well, we know in chicago that union has no problem voicing their opinions. a lot of times, they go directly against the mayor. well, that has happened again. and the uni

florida will see massive delays with 60% of deliveries. dejoy says the plan will save money. >> a path to financial sustainability and service excellence? lawmakers pushing back. >> medical shipments have gone missing, many small businesses cannot get their products to customers. >> i've gotten complaints from families who didn't get birthday cards from grandma to their grandchild or notices about things that they needed to get to on time. >> as well as members of the postal service board of governors. >> intentionally slowing first-class mail and package delivery by changing service standards is strategically ill-conceived, creates dangerous risks that are not justified by the relatively low financial return and doesn't meet our responsibility as an essential part of america's critical infrastructure. >> dejoy remains mired in controversy, a staple of his tenure. the trump hold over and republican mega donor came under fire during the 2020 election as democrats accused him of intentionally sabotaging the postal service and slowing down de

he vanished from his parents' florida home more than a month ago although he has not been charged with gabby petito's murder. her mother telling 60 minutes australia this weekend what she wants to see happen to him. >> i just want to get him in a -- in a cell for the rest of his life. >> gabby petito's stepfather saying her life was stolen from her, and they want vengeance. >>> before we go tonight, i just want to remember the remarkable life of colin powell, a true american hero who broke down barriers and forged new pathways for black americans. the proud son of immigrants from jamaica, powell grew up in new york city. rising through the ranks of the u.s. military, becoming the first black chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and afterward the first black secretary of state. colin powell is survived by his wife alma, three children, and four grandchildren. is olay better than your clean beauty? olay has 99% pure niacinamide. it's derm-tested. and now, it's cleanest formula with hydration that beats the $400 cream. tried. tested. never bested. shop at olay.com i would've called yeste

the host of "entertainment tonight" and david aaronberg, the state attorney for palm beach county, florida. good to see both of you, good evening. dave, i'm going to start with you. i've got to get your reaction to lucy's reporting about the assistant director, he was fired from a different movie after a crew member was injured by a gun incident. whatever the legal ramifications here? does it raise any questions to you? >> yeah, don, that's going to come back to haunt the production crew and that guy at a civil trial because when testimit comes to civil liability, that shows there's a lack of providing the reasonable care that you're owed to everyone there. now, as a matter of civil law, you only need to prove that by a preponderance of the evidence. it's more likely than not that there was negligence. it's different in the criminal context. in the criminal context you have to prove more than just negligence. you've got prove recklessness, and you've got to prove it beyond any reasonable doubt. it's a very high burden. but when it comes to civil law, it's much easier, and that's where you

sarasota, florida, angry school members target school board. yahoo, school board turns violent in minnesota. it may not be an epidemic but it's clearly happening, and this is squarely within the work of the justice department. and the attorney general is well within his right and perhaps could have even said more forcefully it is my job as the chief law enforcement officer of the united states to ensure that this doesn't happen and at least get the fbi to work with state and local officials on this. but, you know, he answered effectively which is that you're twisting my words and that's not just what i said or wrote. >> let's listen to republican senator john cornyn on this memo. >> mr. attorney general, you're a very intelligent, accomplished lawyer and judge. you can answer the question. did you consider the chilling effect that this sort of threat of federal prosecution would have on parents exercise of their constitutional rights to be involved in their childrens education? >> i don't believe it's reasonable to read this memorandum as chill

that woman in florida tells you her husband's death actually led other officers to get vaccinated. does she think vaccines should be mandated for officers? >> reporter: that was sort of interesting from her standpoint. she does not want it to be a mandate, don, but she does want to see more education being directly given to officers on a day to day basis. she thinks the discourse that's happening in this country has just gotten too cantankerous. she wants to see conversations brought into the police department. here every single day almost, someone from this police department reaches out to her. people actually send their vaccination cards to her to show they decided to get the shot after her husband died. if you look behind me, you see those two police units behind me. those are actually two of the squad units from his actual patrol unit. these officers really care about what happened here, but at the same time, it doesn't seem like anyone wants to be forced to take the shot. that's happening across the country. >> ryan, can you tell us anything about this dispute over vaccine man

i'm randi kaye in north port, florida. gabby petito's disappearance and death has captured the attention of the nation and it's been a fast moving investigation. just this bweek, human remains were found here at the carlton reserve and according to the sarasota county medical ice examiner's office those remains have been identified as brian laundrie. the manhunt for brian is over but there are still so many questions about gabby's death. over the next hour, we'll explore their relationships ups and downs, potential warng

and the big difference is that new york has fully vaccinated 72% of its population and florida only 60%. and now what we see is the -- excuse me, texas. and now what we see is the texas governor really trying to prevent these mandates, which have been shown to increase vaccination uptake in the united states. it's almost as if he's trying to sabotage the vaccine effort in his home state. and people are dying as a result. almost every one of those 20,000 texans who have died in the last five months have died a needless death, a preventable death. >> allen west, he's used all the buzz words and all the treatments, right? except for vaccine. he said he's taken monoclonal antibodies, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, right? all the anti-vaxx buzzwords treatments, so-called treatments. neither of those last two are approved for covid, by the way. can you just set the record straight again for us on these medicines? on monoclonal antibodies, on hydroxychloroquine, on ivermectin. >> so hydroxychloroquine has been studied now in many trials. it does not work to prevent either hospitalization or d

learned that brian laundrie's mother, roberta, cancelled camping reservations for two people at the florida park on august 31st and made new reservations for three people at the same park on september 3rd, two days after brian returned home. what question does that raise for you? >> it raises the question that -- to me with a good amount of investigative experience and i think others in the same boat -- was he with -- did they know that this -- her -- she was going to be reported missing? he obviously knows what happened. he's planning ahead for his, you know, for his escape, if you will. or going on the run. are they staging supplies? are they getting out of the -- out of the -- the harsh view of neighbors? and getting to a place where they can privately set up and stage what's gonna happen next? and that -- that -- that's the only explanation i can come up with in terms of why they went to that campground. why the timing of when they were there, as well. >> chris swecker, thank you. this won't be the last time we discuss this, unfortunately. thank you very much. appreciate it. >>> is ther
