Speaking of painful to people who are apoplectic about whether beyonce lip synced talk to me after you got on the stage in front of the president of the United States and hundreds of thousands to sing the National Anthem in 40degree weather. That bomb is bursting in air on the ridiculist. Thanks for watching. Early start begins now. Americans are shivering. Deadly cold affecting millions this morning. Windchills dipping into the negative double digits. Mega brr. In just a few hours, Hillary Clintons long a wrwaited testiy on the attack that killed one of her ambassadors. The bombs bursting in air anthem gate. Was beyonces rendition prerecorded . Good morning and welcome to early start. Start. We are completely live this morning. It is wednesday, january 23rd, 5 00 a. M. In the east. Up first, bitter blistering freezing and deadly. Reporter s reports of at least four deaths in an arctic blast and the cold will not loosen its grip for a while. Jennifer is following the severe cold from atlanta. I know youre probably wondering when are we going to start to see some warmer temperatures. We are still dealing with the bitter cold out there and this is still going to be dangerous. Look at some of the windchills that have been reported over the last six hours. Minus 20 in oakland, pennsylvania. Look at the numbers for parts of the midwest. We have 7 degrees in minneapolis, certainly an improvement over the last couple days. But keep in mind we are still talking about wind out there and it that wind is whats providing that deadly windchill. We talked about this over the last couple days. Say if youre outside for roughly about ten minutes and minus 30 windchill, you could suffer frostbite. If you look across parts of the northeast, all that cold air has been spread over toward areas like pennsylvania as well as new york where we have a reading of 6 degrees right now in altoona, scranton, and you add in the wind, it feels like minus 6. For new york, i imagine going out to work this morning, it was mighty cold out there. My in us 1 feels like there. And for areas like portland, minus 14. So what is going to happen today . We still have this windchill advisory in place for parts of the upper midwest, the northern plain, we could still see the windchills dropping down to about minus 25. As we spread into areas like cleveland, up to buffalo, especially areas that are dealing with the lakeeffect snow, its going to feel like minus 10 to minus 120. So what this means is you really want to make sure you are putting on a lot of layers outside if you work out doors, maybe you can try to see if you can go to work maybe next week sometimes. Because you really need to avoid these conditions. Well talk more about the lake effect though coming up in about 20 minutes. Those numbers are eye popping. And from personal experience, it was really, really cold this morning. I know it was. A 22yearold man facing Assault Charges following tuesdays shooting on the campus of Lone Star College in houston. Three people were wounded, including a campus Maintenance Worker. Another person on the scene was treated for what appeared to be a heart attack. Students describe a scene of utter chaos on campus. Some people hiding under desks, others just simply ran for their lives. Even lavin dare rendera is liven houston. What happened and why . Reporter well, overnight, we have learned from authorities here in houston that they have charged 22yearold Carlton Berry with aggravated assault and hes still being treated for wounds that he suffered in the hospital, as well. Its not clear if other chances will be filed, but thats the latest that the authorities have released. As apparently mr. Berry and another man got into an altercation, an argument that according to witnesses just started escalating when the shots were fired. Multiple shots were fired that wounded the second person as well as that Maintenance Worker who was just standing nearby and was wounded in the leg. He is also being treated in the hospital, as well. So chaotic situation you can imagine for these students who were just going about their business on this campus. The the echos of all the different types of news stories that weve heard across the country frightened them tremendously as the shots were ringing out. One person charged. All of a sudden i heard backfiring and people started running in the hallways. Reporter were near the airport here in houston, so that was an airplane flying over as we were begin to go talk. But one of the witnesses talking yesterday said that it was bizarre how everything escalated so quickly and from the aller indications and some witnesses standing just a few feet away, they were trying to figure out how it could have escalated to something so serious when it didnt seem like it needed to get there. So thats one of the things that investigators will be looking at, as well. Lets talk about gun laws because i know theyre considering gun laws in texas that would allow swron to carry a concealed weapon on a campus. They cant do that now, right . Reporter its interesting. The texas legislators have gone through this debate several times. Many years ago they passed a conceal handgun law where you can hear a handgun and thats what was used in this incident. But there are places where even despite having that license you you cant carry a handgun. Churches and School Campuses are one of those. Ironically enough, there are lawmakers in austin that want to change that aspect of the concealed handgun law here in texas and allow students to carry guns on to campus. So well see how this plays out in that debate, as well. All right. Ed lavendera, thanks so much. Investigators say the new mexico teenager accused of murdering members of his family had hoped to go on a killing spree and die in a shootout with police. The 15yearold was arrested saturday night after deputies found the bodies of his mother, father, brother and two of his sisters.

I told her it was homemade. Everyone tells a little white lie now and then. But now she wants my recipe [ clears his throat ] [ softly ] shes right behind me isnt she . [ male announcer ] progresso. You gotta taste this soup. Did beyonce fake it at the inauguration . Conflicting reports still this morning. Lets give one more listen. And the rockets red glare the bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night marine corps band stirred up t controversy. Released this note, regarding her performance, no one in the marine band is in position to assess whether it was live or prerecorded. Still waiting for comment from beyonce. We did hear from reps for Kelly Clarkson and james taylor, they both confirmed those two artists did sing live. Lets bring in john murray. Do you think she was singing . Im more surprised that Kelly Clarkson and james taylor actually sang live. Its an epic historic event. Artists who air on the side of being perfect and caution in situations like this, you know, they want to give the best showing. People will be playing these tapes for years and years to on come. Most artists do prerecord vocals and she released photos of her prerecording. But most do just in case the elements prevent you from being at your best so im not surprised that she did lip sync if she confirms that she had. The marine band offering conflicting accounts. Earlier they said she lip siyn synced. They said it was determined that a Live Performance was ill advised. Each piece of music scheduled for performance in the inauguration is prerecorded for use in case of freezing temperatures, equipment failure, et cetera. You say its pretty standard. And then she pulled out her earpiece which suggests some sort of feedback. Some are saying was she singing to her own voice. We just dont know. It could have been her lips wouldnt have synced up. But shes in great company. Theyve all lip synced at major events and we know they all can deliver live. This is someone who clearly has i mean, her pipes are excellent. Anyone who has seen her life knows she can do the whole thing. Which is why i think some are saying it was just one song in front of the president. It wasnt 10 degrees out. It was 30 degrees. Why not just sing it. You know what nerves can do, but this is a singer who can sing live. Were not talking Britney Spears or paula abdul. She sings live for a living. We know beyonce can do that. So i give her a pass. And shes been critical of singers who lip siync on shows because there you should sing live. The conflicting reports make the story still live. J john murray, nice to see you this morning. Beyonce strangely silent up until this point only adding to the mystery. 16 minutes after the hour. We want to bring you up to speed on the headlines.

In december, sales of previously owned homes, existing homes the kind of thing that most of us are buying and selling a used home, up nearly 13 from a year ago. We spoke to the chief economist at zillow and asked if the worst is behind us. Definitely the worst is behind us. After housing recession thats been almost five years in many parts of the country, we finally had our first full year of home value appreciation.

What did he say . Reporter he said kind of what you were saying. The worst is behind us. Weve seen increases in employment, increases in home sales, increases in the stock market. He was basically saying dont dwell on the past, stop being so hard on the bankers and by the way, that whole london wale thing that looked bad for jpmorgan last year, hes sorry about that. Listen to how he apologized. I just want to point out no customers terrible mistake. If youre a shareholder, mighty apologize deeply. But we did have record results and life goes on. Reporter that was that big series of trades that cost jp more began billions of dollars he basically waved that off and said dont worry about it. He also talked about critics who say that the Banking System is okay. Jamie dimon has not only been golden child of the banking industry, but one who has stood up in defense of the Banking Sector. He said its not opaque, its complicated and he followed it with the the line you dont understand how aircraft engines work either, do you. So it seemed a little flippant. You dont have to actually know how aircraft engines work. You have to know that theyre going to work and when they stop working, you investigate them a little more closely. So his comments were a little surprising this morning. I would call that vintage jamie dimon, too. Okay. Lets ask you about eric cantor. Hes heading to davos today. Reporter yeah. So the republicans are going to vote on suspending the debt ceiling which is lot of people think its a good idea to do forever. They wont have much opposition with that.

So cold people in some parts of the country like chicago bracing for their coldest day in two years. Theyre bundling up to protect the skip. And its so cold that hot water vaporizes and freezes in midair. Jennifer is inside the Weather Center tracking the bitter chill for us. At least four reports of deaths now. Jennifer, any relief on the way . Well see a slight warm up, but temperatures dangerously cold. Were still talking some locations where it will be minus 35. If youre heading out the door in duluth, it feels a little bit better 2there. 7 in minneapolis. Minus 1 in des moines. In chicago, the current windchill at 0. But you still need to dress warmly. New england including montpelier, it feels like minus 22 degrees. So, yes, were talking about another day where temperatures well below freezing. But still we have these advisers in place, spreading from parts of the upper midwest. You can see from parts of minneapolis as well as other parts of the dakotas, all the way over towards new england where we have in fact a windchill warning. This is going to be in place until this evening. So certainly you have to bundle up out there. This could lead to frost bite and even deaths through parts of the midwest as well as areas of the northeast. You want to know when well see improvement. Look for areas like minneapolis. They know how to deal with the snow. They bundle up and make sure they protect their face and their hands and their clothes. Thats where you lose the most body heat.

Secretary of state Hillary Clinton expected to face tough questions this morning about security failures of the u. S. Diplomatic compound this benghazi. No bombshells really. Jill dougherty is at the state department this morning. Whats the latest, jill . Reporter well, in the aftermath of benghazi, there have been 30 hearings closed door briefings. But this is by far the most high profile and its one of the last things that Hillary Clinton will be doing as secretary of state. On the evening of long a wait system by Hillary Clinton, new state department cables, sources telling cnns jake tapper that investor Chris Stevens killed in the attack once proposed moving the mission where he died to a more secure location near a cia compound. But the department refused. What did the secretary of state know before, during and after . Because the American People were clearly deceived. Aides say shes likely to repeat what she told cnn in october. Day responsibility. Im in charge of the state department. 60,000 plus people all over the world, 275 posts. Are the she was the first top official to brief the full senate in closed session. Since then, there have been more than 30 hearings and closed door briefings with state Department Officials present. But clintons testimony was delayed by travel and by illness. She needs to be asked about what she knew about the deteriorating circumstances in benghazi, did she see the cable, was she informed of the rise of al qaeda militia. Reporter that cable warned the u. S. Mission in benghazi was not secure enough to survive a coordinated attack. Other senators claim Clintons State Department has not handed over all communications on benghazi. The texting, the instant messaging, we really need to have a look at that, which we havent seen yet. Reporter others want to know what clinton knows about those misleading talking points, that u. N. Ambassador susan rice used in the september 16th sunday talk show, and why clinton herself didnt appear instead. Clinton is likely to Tell Congress how she has already ordered inch ple men it tags of recommendations from review, tightened security at posts worldwide, and sent threat analysts to over a dozen posts. Will Congress Give Hillary Clinton a hard time . Im sure she wont be beaten up. Shes highly respected by everyone on the committee. Reporter but it may not be that easy. And there are a couple of other things to watch. One would be the political atmospherics of this. Because in the senate, there are at least two people who potentially could be gop candidates for 2016 and that of course is what might happen with secretary clinton. And then of course you have this issue of the security backing if you want to call it in algeria and mali. And there might be some questioning on that, as well. Political atmospherics. Always that, isnt there. Thank you, jill. Big day on capitol hill today. Meanwhile also on the hill, House Republicans shifting strategy. They say they believe they have the votes to pass a short term debt ceiling increase today and seek deep intending cuts later. Their plan was to spend the 16. 4 trillion debt limit to allow the u. S. To keep borrowing money to pay its bills for another three months, then increase the legal limit to that new debt level. Confusing but important politically. In exchange theyre calling on the senate to pass a budget by spring. Rimportant chess move in the debt talks. Exit polls from tuesdays election in israel show netanyahu will almost certainly hold on to his job. The surprising surge of a new centrist party has weakened netanyahus power, but could ease strained relations with the u. S. And signal a good sign for more flexibility for peace efforts.

Sundance Film Festival is in full swing and half a dozen documentaries are catching the eyes of the distributors. Now, one documentary in particular caught the eye of our very own zoraida, it involves the author ernest hemingway. Tell us about this movie, running with crazy. Reporter it is running with crazy. And it stars mariel hemingway, it is her documentary. And she was running around like crazy yesterday promoting this film. And we talked about the fact that her grandfather, earnest hemingway, shottest in the head and that her sister, margo, died of a drug overdose. We go a little bit into my grandfather. The reason why he killed himself is because he was very depressed and couldnt write anymore. And then his father had killed himself and my grandmothers father had killed himself and high great uncle and my uncle and and then my sister, margo. So you see the girl sitting next to her, that is her daughter, langley, and she actually saw the film for the first time here at sundance. And i asked her how did it feel for you to sit there and listen to your mother share all of her deep dark secrets. Heres what she had to say. If you just like if you ultimate yourself into a position where youre going to not see the sunshine every day or just like one step at a time, and, you know, its intense. And nobody realizes that the easiness of just one step, you know. And so i think that obviously she wants to help you. She will see anybody on the street and its like shell talk to anybody. I got to tell you, i spent a lot of time with her daughter, langley, yesterday. And one of mariels goals is to dispel the myth of the curse of the hemingways. And her daughter is so incredibly well adjusted, shes so proud of her mom and all the good work that cease doing on Mental Health and depression. And shes so proud that she took the time to tell her story and to really dig as deep as she did. So it was really a great experience and i told mariel youve done a great job with your kid. Such a famous family. Really interesting to see their bearing their souls for the whole word to see. There is big news about one of the other films at sundance. Tell us about this. Big news is probably an understatement p. Because this is potentially 10 million news. And its the reason filmmakers come here. They want people to see their films, they want people to buy their films. Is the film is called way, way back. And its being compared to little miss sunshine which was a darling here at the sundance festival some years back. The two directors are the same directors that won an oscar for the descendancenscendants just. So a lot of buzz and who knows what the potential is. Some are thinking it could bes on oscar worthy. We have not confirmed that it is purchased by sony, but that is the buzz. On the cutting edge of the film news. Great to see you this morning. Stay warm. And idescendants. Slept movie. Dramatic rescue caught on camera. A woman saved after falling right into the path of and oncoming train. Terrifying. And a mystery disease thought to be caused by hard hits on a football field.

He accused the president of attacking gun owners by proposing a federal gun registry and expanded background checks for anyone purchasing a gun. Theres only two reasons for a federal list on gun owners. To either tax them or take them. Thats the only reason. Lapierre went on to criticize the president s inaugural speech seeing parts of it at an attack on the nra, the Second Amendment and gun owners themselves. Though there was not a single mention of gun control in mondays speech. He did say the word newtown. The disease that most likely played a role in the death of player respect difficult to define because it cant be diagnosed in living people. A new study out of ucla may have changed that. Dr. Sanjay gupta plains. Reporter when he was a backup quarterback in the nfl, wayne clark was lucky to call a play. Or throw a pass. In fact he spent most of his time on the sidelines. So i didnt take the steady contacts that other players did. Reporter except for one game. One concussion in 1972. I went down in a slump because i didnt know where i was and what was going. Reporter he spent several bleary hours confused. And then boarded a plane back home. Somewhere over new mexico or arizona, i finally became aware of what was going on again. Reporter clarks brain was rattled. But it only happened once during his five year career. Thescan reporter and thats what makes this picture of his brain so perplexing. Researchers say he has an abnormal protein in his brain. Its pain found in the brains of several former nfl players. Dave duerson, junior seau, all had serious cognitive and emotional problems address eventually committed suicide and were diagnosed with cte or chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Clark is cognitively normal. Let me show you what im talking about. Thats a normal brain scan compared to two players in the study who had had at least one concussion. You can 3450edly tell there are bright areas of yellow and red. Thats what the researchers believe indicate the presence. Cte in its most severe cases has memory problem, depression and anger. So not just whether or not the protein is present, but whether its present in the parts of the brain responsible to though emotions. The lead researcher said he found it in all five players in the study, ta thauchlt until u be seen after death. What pathologists have seen is little tau deposits. Reporter small is cautiously optimistic that this brain scan will eventually diagnose cte in living people. Its a step forward, but its a baby step. Because its not specific to tau. Reporter robert stern, a cte expert at the Boston University school of medicine, is a bit more skeptical. He says smalls brain scan doesnt just measure tau, it measures another protein called am ma amel oichlt chlt dichlt which is present in all timers disease. We dont know if its he tau or both. Reporter could the players be suffering from cte, always timers or did other disease . So as you can see, the study is far from conclusive. But if it does pan out, if could give us a better idea of what cte looks like, how it progresses over the years and maybe even how to treat it. Dr. Small who you just met in the piece there has done a lot of work in the world of alzheimers, and he wonders if some of the same interventions could also work for cte. Reducing stress, improved diet, antiinflammatorie antiinflammatories. It will be a while before can he test the hypothesis, but thats what dr. Small and lots of others are angling toward. Boston researchers recently studied the brains of 35 desaysed football players. 34 of the 35 brains showed evidence of cte. A lot of people talking about this study. There are major implications for the very future of the sport. So important you can Important Research going on. We have a packed hour ahead on early s. T. A. R. T. Including the day republicans have been waiting for, a chance to glil secretary of state Hillary Clinton on the terror attack this benghazi that killed one of her ambassadors. What could happen today. We will ask one lawmaker who will be face to face with mrs. Clinton today.

Ali velshi is there. Tell us what jamie dimon is saying about banking regulation, ali. Christine, you know, youve been here. Highest city in switzerland. The air is thin and people Say Something that they might not say in less formal settings. The ceo of jpmorgan, outspoken in defense of the Banking Sector. He said on a banking panel, Everybody Needs to back off the banks a little bit. They are not evil. We do a lot of good. He made a specific reference to the fact that big banks like Jpmorgan Fund the federal deposit insurance corporation, the fdic, saves banks and depositors when small banks go under and took issue with critics that say the Banking System is opaque. Not transparent. Listen to what he said. Businesses can be opaque, they are complex. You dont know how aircraft engines work either, okay. There will be a Financial Services business. Loans equity, capital markets, mortgages, all those things will be required. So hes painting a picture of how they are complex businesses. Richard quest and i, the aircraft engine thing, i get the point is he making. When an aircraft engine doesnt work, it becomes a very serious problem, and those of us who dont understand them work harder to understand them. We want them to work. With the Banking Sector like the aircraft engine, it stopped working, but it affected the global environment. So a lot of discussion about those kinds of comments around here. As you know, jamie dimon direct in saying back off the banks, not all the banks, christine. Quickly, ali, the House Majority leader heading to davos today, and House Republicans, looks like they are trying to defuse for now some drama in the debt ceiling. Yeah, they will vote on the idea they put it off they dont put it off. Suspend the debt ceiling which is an idea that a lot of people think should be in place forever. Only two countries have a debt ceiling. They will do this for three months. April 15th, back to the debate. They folded a little bit. They said they absolutely wouldnt deal with the debt ceiling. A half measure, they will suspend it. Eric cantor coming here to take part in a panel on friday afternoon about economic dynamism. Im surprised that anybody from davos is inviting americans to talk about it. Im not sure what he will get out of it. He will be here and hopefully we can speak to him about whats going on in the u.

Conflicting reports still this morning. Give it another listen. And the rockets red glare the bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night that our flag was still there the marine corps band stirred up the controversy by saying she did not actually sing. But then they released this statement. Regarding ms. Knowlescarters vocal performance, no one in the marine band is in a position to assess whether it is live or prerecorded. We heard from reps of james taylor and Kelly Clarkson that confirm they both sang live. Lets bring in john murphy of alwaysalist. Com. I was in a platform just over beyonce watching the whole thing. I couldnt tell whether she was singing or not. What do you think . The sign of a professional, john. A good professional will lever never let you know if they are lipsynching. Here is the deal. Beyonce can sing live. We have been to her concerts, seen plenty of performances. For an historic event, if she used to use prerecorded vocals, we give her a pass. Just like whitney houston, neil diamond, and others have used at the super bowl. There are certain elements your voice is an instrument. You have laryng inclaryngitis. She took her earpiece out, does that indicate anything . Ever seen Janet Jackson or Britney Spears, they have earpieces and lip sync the entire show. You have to hear yourself and the music. For your mouth to be in sync for whats prerecorded. You have to make sure the sound is balanced out. If she did, she would be no way the first to do it. I saw millivanilla van ivan i millivanilli in concert. Here is the difference. Millivanilli lip synced to someone elses voice. Beyonce sang to her own. Lets not forget, four years ago, cellist yoyo ma did a prerecorded version of himself playing an actual instrument. If the person playing an you instrument cant to it live, the one with an audible sound gets a pass. I dont think she owes us anything. Modern technology and all of the gadgets, everything we have going on, makes everything so accessible. We know better than anything, beyonce can keep a secret if she doesnt want us to know something she will never answer it. John murray, of alwa alwaysalist. Com. Thank you. High drama below ground.

Bunling up, covering up everything to protect skin from subzero windchills. Minnesota, wisconsin, and the great lakes are locked in the deep freeze, which could stick around until the weekend. And we are tracking the bitter chill. I went to college in iowa, these are the kinds of days where you walk across campus and you cant feel anything, even with gloves, mittens, snow pants. It is cold. Those are the days when are you maybe like i should stay in the house for my own safety. Are you right, christine. It is going to be bitterly cold from areas in the upper midwest. We are dealing with windchills minus 25 to minus 35. Even in the midatlantic and new england. They will be shivering. We have windchill warnings for parts of new england. And we could see them drop down to minus 4 degrees. When we talk about weather like this, it could prove to be deadly. A bit of a warming trend. Its still cold. Dont get me wrong. Duluth, minus 19. And it feels like 3 in chicago. Thats your windchill. Still very cold. Parts of the northeast, very coll. High temperatures climbing very slightly. Areas like chicago. You are reaching 25. And for new york. A high of 22 degrees. Not everybody is shivering. Not everybody minds this cold weather. We have video coming in to us, out of indianapolis. You will see people heading to the zoo. You can see a tiger there. Hes like all right. A leittl chilly. But the polar bears, and a nice day. I like the cold temperatures. They will continue to be well below average. We will also talk about more lakeeffect snow. We could see some locations picking up another 3 to 6 inches of snowfall in the southwestern part of the u. S. Record warmth. In some locations, 10 to 20 degrees. I love your optimism. A Beautiful Day in the upper midwest if you are a penguin or burglar bear. Layers of fur. The polar bear says hey. And today is the day that many republicans, many people everywhere have been waiting for. Hillary clinton in one of her final acts of secretary of state will testify about the attack on the u. S. Consulate in benghazi. She is going before the senate Foreign Relations committee and the house Foreign Relations committee. She was going to testify previously but suffered from illness and a concussion. She was hospitalized for a blood clot in her head. She returned after leaving the hospital. I want to bring in Adam Kinzinger. What is the one question you want to have her answer . Look good morning. Im a major in the air force, air national guard. I still fly. And one of the early things i learned as a pilot. Your country will be there to support you, and what im curious about, there were two basically separate attacks in this that happened and there was a sevenhour lull between the first and second. The question, why were assets not put overhead during that lull, during that time. When we could have had support . Thats a big question. The other big thing was this. We were told immediately after the attack, this was the result of the Youtube Video i heard the secretary herself say it. Even during the attack, members of the state department knew, in fact, this was a terrorist attack and knew there were terrorist organizations claiming responsibility. It will be a very respectful hearing. I respect the secretarys service to her country. The American People deserve a lot of answers to whats going on. An independent accountabl accountableability review board, did not find that any individual u. S. Government employee engaged in misconduct or willfully ignored his or her responsibilities and, therefore, did not find reasonable cause to believe that an individual breached his or her duty as to be the subject of a recommendation for disciplinary action. You want more than that . I do. We need to ask who knew what and when. Was she briefed what was going on . What information did the white house have . The white house would have been the folks that could have dispatched any kind of dod, department of defense assets overhead to prevent further attacks, or to save personnel under fire. I think there are a lot of questions, and, again, the day after we were told this was a Youtube Video, and we knew otherwise. So it does leave questions as to what we are being told. A respectful hearing, but we need to have answers to this. And the American People deserve it. A number of months, four americans unfortunately were killed in this process. We need to ensure accountability, and is it doesnt happen again in the future. David petraeus says multiple streams of intelligence from different sources and that may be where the confusion lies. Thats not a satisfying answer . Its not. Look, when you have emails sent among Department Personnel saying a group is claiming responsibility for this, calling it a terrorist attack and then we fin out later this was, in fact, a terrorist attack, in a short amount of time, im curious as to why it was so quickly blamed on a Youtube Video, when the reality that a Youtube Video would spark mass protest, organize an attack against our embassy, doesnt make a lot of sense. It is a question as to why that was the result. Was administration trying to downplay the seriousness of the attack prior to the election . Did that have a role to play in the fact that military assets werent put overhead, whether its an f16 that can see whats on the ground or do nonviolent maneuvers that f16s can do to disperse crowds. Our responsibility to get to the bottom of it. A day a lot of people have been waiting for. House side, 2 00 p. M. , we know you will be there. Thanks. Have a good day. And shifting strategy in debt negotiations. They believe they have the votes to pass a shortterm debt increase today and seek deep spending cuts later.

This is what he said. There are only two reasons for a federal list on gun owners, to either tax them or take them. Its the only reason. La pierre criticize the president s inauguration speech.
