MSNBC Chris Jansing Reports September 5, 2024

Dissuade Vladimir Putin . I think this is a good sign, a Shot Across The Bow to remind americans of this kind of behavior. We talked a lot about it in 2016. We should have talked more about it in 2020, by the way. They did various activities then. I applaud what the biden administration is doing right now to remind everybody that this is happening. They obviously have very good technology to uncover what has happened. Thats a good reminder to the russians, and i think the very fact that theyre doing this is a gentle reminder to all americans to be careful about what theyre reading when the source comes from russia. And i want to remind everybody, you can go on x right now and find rt, the very people that are being indicted right now. They are freely tweeting. They are freely propagating their disinformation on the united states. That is good reminder, i think, to americans of who these actors actually are working for. Theyre working for Vladimir Putin. They are not independent news agencies. They are working for the kremlin. The problem, of course, frank, is the ubiquitousness of this, how it gets spread so quickly, and we heard ryan talking about a rapid response team, but how big is The Hill that the administration has to climb, organizations that are concerned about safe elections in tamping down what is clearly an epidemic of Mis And Disinformation . Yeah, youre almost always playing catch up. Youre just one step behind the Intelligence Services that are out in front of you. So this was an impressive move today. I got to tell you, as someone who led counter intelligence investigations, this is impressive stuff. If you read between the lines, you can see theyve got access to internal documents, whether from the kremlin or rt, garland was reading from those documents that say this is what were going to do. Make sure you dont get caught, and we need to make sure that our candidate that we prefer is assisted here. The great investigative work. Its a preemptive strike. It sends a message that, look, were on to you. Were going to keep doing this, and also it sends the message to the two people indicted. Thats critical. Youve got Human Beings indicted. What does that say to russians thinking about helping the kremlin. Im going to be in pain over this. Right . Ive got personal repercussions. I cant travel. Theyre going to take my money. You know, garland said, look, the State Department and Treasury Department are going to come out later with further actions. If you bring pain to the adversary, you cause russians to think twice about helping putin do what he wants to do. The message to americans, look, whether its the Kremlin In Moscow or our own backyard, if You Ness and interfere with our electoral process and our democracy, you will face consequences. And were reading and viewing on Tiktok And Instagram propaganda that could be coming from russia. Thats a message for all of us to be far more vigilant about what were consuming. An important warning. And a Shot Across The Bow. Ambassador mcfaul, ryan reilly, and frank figliuzzi, thank you to all of you.

At this hour, we are following Breaking News after police rushed to the scene of a deadly high School Shooting in georgia. At least two people killed, four injured and a suspect in custody. Details are very slow to come in. We also have a report on taking the Campaign Trail less traveled. Kamala harris is away from washington, d. C. She is on the Campaign Trail, and we expect to be hearing from her at the end of this hour. Well see whether or not she addresses what has happened here. You may have been with us in the last hour where we heard from the Attorney General and the assistant Attorney General about the federal resources, including fbi and the atf that have been rushed to the scene. But what youre seeing right now is unfolding in barrel county, georgia. Thats an Hour East of atlanta. The video from the scene, showing directly from the Football Field, Law Enforcement swarmed the scene. We know some parents have been reunited with their children. Lockdowns that had been in place, Soft Lock Downs at other schools in the district have been lifted. Were also hearing from kids inside that school, including a 10th Grader who may have lost a classmate just upset and disappointed in The School, honestly, because if something like this can happen here when you think its a normal day, it could happen anywhere. I heard that a kid my age that i was close to, he passed away today. And just a few minutes ago, Attorney General Merrick Garland weighing in. Heres part of what he had to say. We are still gathering information, but the Fbi And Atf are on the scene working with state, local, and federal partners. Im devastated for the families who have been affected by this terrible tragedy. The Justice Department starts ready to provide any resources or support that the Community Needs in the days ahead. We should note we are expecting more details about the shooting in georgia for a Press Conference set for 4 15 p. M. Priya sridhar arrived on the scene in the last hour. Also with us, retired atf special agent in charge, and Msnbc Terrorism contributor, Jim Cavanaugh, msnbc national security analyst, frank figliuzzi, and senior Law Enforcement analyst, cedric alexander. Priya, whats the scene like where you are this hour . Reporter theres still a massive Law Enforcement presence here. Representatives from local, state, and national authorities. The fbi, the Georgia Bureau of investigation are all on scene here. Theres a lot of emotion as you heard from the people weve already spoken to. Families trying to reunite with their students who went to this High School. Theres an 1,800 Student Body here. Many were directed to the Football Field where they were being questioned by authorities. We heard from parents that they had joined together in a prayer circle. Most of The Streets have been blocked off by Law Enforcement, so there were miles and miles of vehicles of Family Members trying to get as close as they can to this High School. And people were just parking their cars wherever they could and walking for miles in this heat, desperately trying to find their kids. This High School is directly across The Street from a preschool. Were seeing very small kids being picked up by their parents with their backpacks. They seemingly have no idea what took place today. And directly next to the High School is a Middle School. A lot of students standing outside the Middle School, waiting to be reunited with their parents. We heard from the sheriff about where the investigation stands so far. Lets take a listen to what he had to say. Obviously what you see behind us is an evil thing today. At about 9 30 this morning, we received the first call that there was an active shooter on this campus. Were not releasing information as far as injuries, but we have multiple injuries. This is a very fluid investigation, its very early. Reporter and of course we pressed him for any information he may have about the shooter, his identity, a possible motive. He wasnt able to give us anything right now, and i can tell you within the last 20 minutes, there was actually a helicopter that was medically evacuating it appears someone from this school. Still another ambulance that just left from here. Im interrupting Priya Sridhar because Tom Winter joins us now. I understand you have new information from authorities. Reporter thats right, chris, and unfortunately its not a happy update. Four are dead now. Confirming four are dead as a result of this shooting. We dont know whether its student, teachers, staff, an additional nine taken to hospitals with various injuries. The suspect is in custody and is alive. All of this according to the Georgia Bureau of investigation. In a statement they have provided, so again, as a result of this School Shooting in georgia, four are dead. An additional nine taken to hospitals with injuries. We are told that number may go up. As a result of students running and staff running from what happened, but officially the Georgia Bureau of investigation has this as Nine Injured, the suspect is in custody as we have been reporting now for hours, but is alive. And thats an update from them as well. They said that there was a report out there that the suspect had been quote, flew neutralized which means the person is deceased but they say that report is inaccurate. Thats the latest we have. Unfortunately, not a good update. Any details of students, do we know anything . Great question. We dont know yet. Authorities are trying to determine the individuals past, and any sort of nexus and or connection to The School. We were told the suspect is believed to be in their teens, we dont have the specific Identity Or Name yet. Thats something theyre trying to determine. Remember, if were talking about a teenage suspect, its possible they dont have a drivers license. Its possible they dont have any sort of Criminal Record where there would be a generation of finger prints. Those are pieces of information we would have to get to the bottom of it. Its also possible given their age they may not have been legally allowed to purchase this weapon. So the weapon would trace back to another individual, and then with that, be able to tell authorities generally who this person could be. Theres permutations of that. Those are the types of things that investigators are doing, likely as we speak. That might get us to that point. As we know from the recent attempted assassination of former president trump, it was a Family Member who initially collude Law Enforcement into the fact that a gun was missing and their son was missing. Were talking about Thomas Matthew crooks. There are all sorts of different ways authorities could come upon the name. That might be a Reason Werchlt received that information yet, and we want to be particularly cautious. Were talking about a suspect in an active crime who is alive, and whether or not theyre talking with Law Enforcement is something we dont know yet either. All sorts of different questions out there. But the update from the Georgia Bureau of investigation, for folks outside of georgia to understand, theyre the statewide nvktive body. Each state is a little bit different in this regard, but they have criminal investigative authority, and they were close with the various Sheriffs Office agencies, as well as with local police to be able to put together some of these larger crimes, more high profile crimes. And they do some deep and extensive background investigation. So thats what gbi is putting out, and thats the latest information on the record and officially from them, chris. Tom, thank you for that, and i know youll get back to us if we learn anything else. Jim, i can say, and tom raised a number of good points there, we dont know whether or not he was able to legally obtain a firearm. Well, at least according to georgia law, if he is a teenager, the answer to that is no. According to the giffords law center, everytown research, you have to be 21 in the state of georgia. They dont have Background Checks, Purchase Permit laws, but you do have to be 21 years old to legally buy a gun in the state of georgia. Also, again, dont know if hes old enough to have a drivers license, whether or not theres any Criminal Record, but if he is a teenager, chances are there is a Social Media or online footprint. No, exactly, in most of the School Shootings, The Guns come from the home. The way the law works on age, juveniles, federal law is similar to georgia. You have to be 21 to buy a handgun, and 18 to buy a long gun. Theres no law, no federal law against the possession of firearms by a teenager, its the purchase from a licensed Firearms Dealer thats prohibited. A parent can go in and buy the 16yearold a rifle if they want, and give the rifle as gift. We have seen that in past shootings. Thats not unusual. Not unusual. It can be a gift, buy for Target Shooting and sporting and hunting. They can give them a handgun. Theres no federal law about possessing a handgun by a juvenile. They cannot purchase it from a dealer, which is an important restriction. What the law is saying, look, the parents will be responsible and know if the child can handle The Gun. Not always the case. Look at newtown, connecticut, the parent gave the killer The Gun. Its not always the case, but thats the law. So most school soot, The Guns come from home, they take it ouch the closet. Its given to them as a gift. Steal it from their Grandfathers Locker or whatever, and go on a rampage. We dont know if the shooter is a student. Often it is a student. Identification is roebl not a problem if its a not a problem if its a student because the students know who the student is. The issue is not identifying the shooter. They know who the shooter is. The shooter is being interviewed by the police. We dont know if the shooter is talking, but likely the shooter is. Also the Murder Case we have discussed with frank and clint, its a murder prosecution, but its not a mysterious case. And every person whos been a witness will not be testifying at the murder trial. Theyre not going to bring in 30 or 40 teenagers to testify and say hes the guy that came in with The Gun. They will only need a few of those. They have a strong case. They can pick strong witnesses who can deal with the trauma of it, who can testify, and who will clearly point it out. Theres probably video in The School of the kid carrying the rifle, testimony from police who confront with the rifle, shoot him or tell him to drop. It plenty of mountains of proof. Its not a mystery case. Everything has to be done correctly before its presented to a jury or theres a guilty plea. So we are starting to hear from some students who were inside about what they saw, what they heard. In this case, our local affiliate has spoken to a 16yearold. She just celebrated her 16th birthday, and said she was in the classroom right next to where the shooting happened. Heres what she told our affiliate. We were doing a packet for math or something. And then a student, she just went right back in the classroom, and thats when we started hearing the shooting, and at first, we didnt really react. After that, everybody just like, they reacted fast, and went over to the corner and started hidin
