the survivors of the sandy hook elementary school shooting, graduating from high school. they were just first-graders when they tragically lost 20 of their classmates in that massacre 12 years ago tonight they still feel the weight of that loss this is such a monumental guy and we all can feel what we've lost should been all royal classmates 391. >> one last time. and i just can't i gave you that. i can never be that. i think we all are carrying your memory through us and making sure that they're walking stage right there with us. the school's principal reading the names of all 20 students who were murdered in that attack, also leading a moment of silence and honoring, of course, the six teachers and administrators were also killed wearing white and green ribbons on their gowns, each inscribed with forever in our hearts to remember the victims it is a tragedy that has understandably shape the course of their lives. many of the survivors now activists, some of them meeting recently with vice president kamala harris to push for gun control thanks so much for joining us tonight. america hill, ac30 60 starts now tonight, not 360 breaking news, a gun, eight clips two axis, one, weighted whip, knives handcuffs, a stun gun one suspect. >> all we are learning about the man arrested in new york with all this in his suv. and what authorities think he had planned for it. also tonight, what happens when the attorney general of the united states is held in contempt of congress and the effort is led by a congressman famous for defying how subpoena and later this will both fill your heart and break it. randy k. with surviving first-graders of the sandy hook massacre. now, high school graduates john berman here, infer anderson and we do begin with the breaking news and i just want to show you again what new york police officers found in the back of a ford explorer, they pulled over early this morning in the city's queens borough. it is frankly terrifying seen as john miller himself, a veteran of the nypd and fbi, joins us now, along with former fbi deputy director andrew mccabe and john just just tell us what more authorities are learning about this man and what they found in his car? while they're doing the deep die, if you've got the nypd detective bureau, but also the nypd's intelligence bureau, which specializes in counterterrorism matters and the joint terrorism i'm taskforce with the fbi all peeling back as life on one hand, what you're not finding yet and may never find is that he was radicalized, that he was in contact with an overseas terrorist group or that he had a plan to commit an act of terrorism. the concerning fees, as you have very well-framed with pictures is that he was driving around in a car equipped to do so. not only the weapons, but a collapsible button with the words carved into it in arabic god forgive me. a social media page that displays, and this isn't secret information. i went to his social media page and looked it has a flag that has been used before by al-qaeda in one of the images. so they have to figure out what's going on with him from family members, what their hearing is troubled, having problems with drugs hugs perhaps meth paranoid, and somebody who who may just be going through some mental health issues. but the danger is clear. >> do they just pull this guy over randomly they saw that his license plate were covered by one of those plastic things you can buy them at auto stories, it's basically meant to thwart the red light cameras in the speed cameras on the traffic violation. >> they looked in the car and they said they saw a knife on the seat, asked him to step out of the car so a taser and then a gun also between the front seats. and that led to the arrest for weapons charges in the search of the car. >> so not complete luck that they found it, but it's certainly something that could have slipped through heading on the license great example, an andy mccabe will tell you this. i'm how routine police works sometimes better than the best intelligence is. what can keep your head of one of these incidents, andy, that arsenal, that this man had in the suv can bind with the qualities that john just described there, how much damage couldn't have done oh, i mean, john, there's a there's really no no limit to what this guy could have done with that sort of arsenal. >> and the thing that really jumps out to me is the nine magazines, nine loaded magazines to go along with the glock semi-automatic pistol. i mean, that is someone who is ready to shoot oh lot. so even if there is no connection to terrorism here, even this is, if this is a lone actor, these very heads up on the ball, police officers may have stopped a mass shooting, may have stopped some sort of a stabbing spree in a large group of people which you can find anywhere on the streets of manhattan, pretty much anytime you want. >> so what they may have stopped here, well, we'll maybe never know. but no question. john's absolutely right. this is the result of really solid police work. taking a look at something that's clearly illegal, doing this sort of reasonable investigation that follows from that picking up on all the signs and taking a step to really make sure that new yorkers are safe. i can tell you that my former colleagues, john's former colleagues at the joint terrorism task force. i'm sure all over this right now, they're john said peeling this guy's life back. but what they're most concerned about right now, john is who this guy may have been talking to. they want to fully frame out his network of associates, people, he's corresponding with on social media. what were those conversations in those communications like to the extent that they can be recreated, they want to know if this guy has anyone else in his orbit who is similarly armed or similarly inclined andy said the clips or what, what's most concerning, what about the mta vested in the police bulletproof vest? >> what does that indicate? >> that's interesting. the two least two deadly items on the table could be the ones that tell us the most an mta vest that will get you into restricted areas in the subway believing that you're a subway worker the police bulletproof vest is not the standard best it's the heavy, vest, it's the plate carrier that is meant to stop heavier weapons and he has put an nypd patch on it so we're talking about someone who is driving in a black suv that kind of looks like an unmarked police car with this other indicia you wonder what it was for nand just finally either is a day after that sources tell cnn at eight tajik nationals with potential ties to terrorism and possible links to isis members over see is were arrested in the us. again, the ipd stress is way too early to determine if this arrested eight has any connection to terror groups but you do get the sense that authorities right now are on alert for a potential attacks john this is a beacon. it should, it should really get people's attention to the fact that even though we're not talking about stuff like this, every day, our intelligence folks are law enforcement folks, people who are focusing on the counterterrorism targets and threats they are at a very high state of alert. we know this because what the leaders have told us recently fbi director christopher wray testified recently about the increased threat awareness from the community in this country that may be inspired by or connected to hamas actor. so there is a whole broad range you very concerning threats and we're fortunate to have those folks watching those things closely and became great to see a john miller will get you back to digging, find out what you can. thanks very much. more breaking news on capitol hill late today, the republican controlled house made attorney general merrick garland, the third attorney general to be held in contempt of congress. garlin now joins obama attorney general, eric holder, and trump attorney general william barr in the history books. in this case is for refusing to turn over audio recordings of interviews that president biden did with a special counsel, who later declined to prosecute him. but vote was both politically driven and somewhat rich in that one of those pushing hardest for this house judiciary chair, jim jordan fight a subpoena to appear before the house january 6 committee with us now, from capitol hill, seen as meloni's the nose. so how did the vote breakdown today, melanie, will john this vote fell almost entirely along party lines, just one republican that's dave joyce of ohio, voted against this contempt the dilution, while all republicans voted for it. >> and of course, all democrats voted against it. so now it's really up to the doj to determine whether they're or actually going to prosecute attorney general merrick garland, which of course is very unlikely to happen, especially since price on and biden did assert executive privilege over those audio recordings which were of his interview with the special counsel in relation to the classified documents case. but speaker mike johnson said, regardless of what ends up happening or not happening, this was an important step for the house to take. just listen. >> we did our job on the contempt i think it sends an important message. we're defending article one and ariff, the wording for oversight, and we have to do that we'll see what happens next. but i the house has to do its work and i'm pleased with the outcome. >> so again, this is a largely symbolic vote. it's much more likely to end up in federal court than it is in a prosecution, but it is a dramatic escalation in the feud between congress in the doj with merrick garland now become just the latest attorney general to be held in contempt. the congress john. so we did mention that the congressman jim jordan, defied a subpoena to a b appear before the house january 6 committee. >> did he ever face any consequences for that? >> yes. so he never complied with that subpoena to appear before the committee to talk about his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election in the house, which was run by democrats at the time, opted not to hold him in contempt of commerce. so no, jordan did not face any repercussions for his decision to defy that congressional subpoena. but speaker mike johnson was asked at a press conference earlier this morning, how can republicans hold merrick garland in contempt for oh, congress for defining a congressional subpoena when several of their own republican members have done exactly that. but johnson just responded by attacking the january 6, but committee and falsely calling it an illegitimate panel. >> john, we'll get to that milliner zone with thanks for being with us. appreciate it with us. now, maryland democratic congressman jamie raskin, congressman. thanks so much for being with us what's your reaction to the house vote to hold the attorney general in contempt in your mind? what helped could the audio recordings provide that the transcripts cannot well, it's a ridiculous motion in a ridiculous decision it's really the first time in american history that someone has been held in contempt by the us congress for complying with a subpoena from congress there's been overwhelming compliance in this case. >> what they were interested in was president biden's testimony before the special counsel the attorney general, the department justice, turned over the entire testimony verbatim, the entire transcript. they turned over all of the correspondence related did to it, and they even produce the special counsel himself, robert hur, who came over and spent several hours testifying and answering all questions about it. so they were saying they wanted to audio tape like they wanted the e-book. it wasn't enough to have the book itself. they wanted the audio book to go with it and everybody on capitol understands that they are looking for in president biden's more than five hours of testimony, which he gave during the time right after the terrorists to try cities on october 7 some verbal lapses, some mispronounced words or some ohms, or some us or something like that. and that's all for the purposes of creating a political tv attack ad. and everybody knows that that's what it's about. about and it's a ridiculous waste and abusive congressional resources and it was particularly rich as i think you said, and as i said on the house floor today, that this is coming from people who did not support contempt citations against people who really completely blew off congress and produced no documents and no testimony. people like steve bannon and some of those members who spoke on the floor on behalf of holding the attorney general united states in contempt themselves had never responded in any substantive way. to the subpoenas that were sent to them by the bipartisan january 6 select committee, which by the way, was found to be perfectly legitimate by multiple courts when our jurisdiction or authority was challenged in any way, let me play let me play what house speaker mike johnson had to say about that, specifically the idea of jim jordan who did not come comply with your subpoenas, you were on that committee. listen oh, i'm so glad you brought up the january 6 committee. >> we'll be talking a lot more about that in the coming weeks. there's been a lot of investigation about that committee. i don't think it was properly constituted. i don't think it was it was properly administered. and now we know that apparently some of the evidence was hidden and some maybe even destroyed so you'll see, you'll hear much more about that in the days ahead. you talk about apples to oranges. there couldn't be a more clear contrast between that and what we're talking about here. >> do you see this is apples and oranges and respond if you'd like to his charge that your committee was on lawfully constituted yeah, it's of course the exact opposite of what speaker johnson just said every federal court to look at this said that the january 6 select committee, which was a bipartisan committee with the democratic chair in a republican vice chair was completely lawfully constituted and lawfully operated and none of the people who tried to litigate against us, one in any way, they're just repeating a bunch of stale obsolete charges that have already been repudiated by federal courts and jamie are asking, we do appreciate your time and i thank so much for being with us you've got my pleasure and then looking ahead to the former president's meeting with republican lawmakers on capitol hill tomorrow with a party. now, almost totally remade in his own image. and the latest don john on kings all over the map series tonight, he talks with deeply divided auto workers in the swing state of michigan about their presidential choices in november you give, and you give, now you get with straight talk wireless, you get unlimited data and you get to choose who gets on your family plans starting at just $25 a line, doesn't have to be family more lines, more savings switch to straight talk for plants starting as low as $25 a line. >> three body serie a, city client uses city's financial expertise to help drive its growth and keep its supply chain moving some more pet parents can get everything they need, right when they need it. keeping more pets and families happy for the love of moving our clients forward, for the love of progress a widely filter. >> it's well-designed, efficient i appreciate that leaf filters technology keeps debris out of your gutters for good guaranteed. >> what more could you ask for?
