And and the ease with which agents say they also found phone browser searches for temples and this this these ideas and this hate can spread. I mean, its a tool of other jewish houses of worship, as well as searches about hitler and nazis. Propaganda that that people saturdays attack came despite in the past could have only dreamed of. Its not just handing you a book an increase in patrols by the or handing you a screed or passing it in dark rooms. Nypd in jewish neighborhoods. Now, its just right in front of an increase triggered by a you. You dont even need to click to sudden spike in antisemitic incidents in new york and new get to it. Jersey. Its just in your face. The Antidefamation League cited as the mayor of the largest city in america, a place where weve 18 antisemitic incidents in new seen antisemitic hate crimes on york this month alone. The rise. 18. And that does not include this i believe its 17 just this months shooting inside a kosher past year alone. Market in jersey city, new what can you do to mitigate it . Jersey. Just across the hudson from new yeah. Jim cavanaul point. York. An attack that left three people dead. We were dealing with societal change. Today, Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer said he is alarmed and so every city, state, by the surge in attacks in National Government all bear synagogues and other houses of responsibility for addressing worship nationwide. It. But lets be real honest about the attack on the jewish the totality of the challenge. Community was cowardly, callous, social media has created an environment where hate spreads calculated. And we have seen over the last like wildfire. And there are not those several years that theres been controls. Jim is right to say those a rash of attacks on houses of companies could exercise a lot more control. Worship of all kinds. I think they need a lot more regulation in general. I also think they need to step throughout america. And our houses of worship are up as corporate citizens and say we dont want to allow this to targets and theyre defenseless. Spread. We have to recognize that the atmosphere in this country in and so bad people, hateful the last few years has also, and people, terrorists, angry people a lot of this comes from choose houses of worship over and over again. Washington, allowed a kind of permission structure for hate President Trump condemned this weeks attack tweeting that speech. We must all come together to that before was frowned upon and fight, confront, and eradicate the evil scourge of treated very, very differently by leaders all over the country. Antisemitism. So when you combine those two but today, his acting deputy things, the hate speech coming Homeland Security secretary out in the open, being spread by tweeted the attacker is the u. S. Social media, being affirmed by citizen son of an illegal alien people in government. Who got amnesty under the 1986 its a very dangerous combination. Jim cavanaugh made a point. We now, with our mipd, have amnesty law for illegal immigrants. Apparently, American Values did not take hold among his entire created a unit focused on racial family. At least this one violent and and ethnic extremism. Apparently bigoted son. The fact that we have to understand we are in a whole new world. We used to put a huge amount of he has since deleted that tweet. With me now, jim cavanaugh, intelligence assets in foreign terror threats to our city. Retired atf agent and former more and more, we now have to look at domestic threats. Hostage negotiator. What is that unit doing . Jim, id say its good to see that unit is now looking you but generally when i see systematically at all the kind you, its talking about pretty of hate groups jim was just talking about. Terrible news. The organized efforts. This is no exception. Not the lone wolves. What can be done in order to we try our best to identify them as well. But there is a very organized prevent or at least mitigate this sort of thing . Network of folks spreading the hate speech and encouraging is a federal law something that can help this . Or is this something that needs violence. And sometimes that fact allows to be treated incident by incident . Us to see something and stop it before the violence occurs. Well, i think a lot can be you were on this morning. Done. Lets look, first, katy, at what i believe you were talking to the mayors done. One of my colleagues. And right after you, one of the he stood up new hate Crime Task Force new the nypd. City councilman here in new york the federal government could. The president , the attorney city had some criticism of your general, could do some big steps. Leadership after these look. I worked on these guys all my antisemitic attacks. Life. I just want to play that. Ive arrested the nazis and the clan planting bombs at jewish im not quite sure what the temples. Commanded cases where guys were mayors talking about. And i think hes being less than going to shoot up jewish schools honest. And kill people. Infiltrated the things with our the fact is that antisemitism in new york, in his city that he agents. We fought them for years. Has been the mayor for quite a they could throw atf back in the fight real heavy. Few years, is unprecedented. That would really help. They could give the fbi what the numbers are beyond anything they need to do it. Weve ever seen in history since they could even enlist special they started keeping records. Agents at Homeland Security and wheth the secret service more and engage them in the fight as when will the mayor wake up in terms of the needs that he is units and not just as, you know, talking about right now . The jttf members. So a lot can be done there. Antisemitism, hate, fear in the Jewish Community is there every states and major cities that have, you know, these attacks, single day. And its been going on for over specifically now, katy, talking about attacks on a jewish a year. And where has the mayor been to address this . Community. Can ramp up their, you know, former city councilman, i intelligence functions. Should say. And people should listen to the for anybody who lives in new york city, theyll know him. Hes been a very vocal leader in Antidefamation League. You know, i worked with them and the Jewish Community. What is your response to him . The Southern Poverty Law Center for years. He just isnt reflecting the these groups really help the facts of this city. Community. They help law enforcement. Nypd has been on high alert people need to listen to them. Numerous times. Not just when there are problems check their websites. Their reporting on these haters. In our neighborhoods in new york publicly on who they are and what theyre doing. City. But when theres attacks on and and Everybody Needs to tune in. Jewish communities anywhere in all good people need to tune in. The world, we ensure maximum let me ask you about how to classify people or target people nypd presence at locations all over the city. Ive talked to leaders from the that might be thinking about community for years now who this sort of thing. Michael susman, who is the affirm that the city of new york stands by them whenever theres attorney for the suspect has any kind of a threat. Said hes got no history of look. We have changed our curriculum in our schools to teach young violent acts like this. Hes not a member of any hate people not to fall for these group. The family of the suspect said voices of hate. To recognize how horrible and that they believe that hes got mental issues. Dangerous it is to give in to an episodic treatment he was them. To understand the human reality receiving before he was of hate. Released. How it comes back to hurt all and then you have jersey city mayor where that attack happened communities. We, in this city, this is a couple weeks ago saying this is a place that believes in saying we do need to think about respecting each other. And we are the safest big city how we classify it. In america. Its not necessarily just folks thats a fact. And were a city that actually has come a long way to mutual that are skinheads or neonazis understanding. Or obvious people that you would but as weve seen this national backdrop, and lets face it, classify as antisemites who are this is now societal. What happened in pittsburgh. Belonging to a Certain Group what happened in california. That you can target and root out. How do you how do you stop it we have flooded the zone with when its just one person who more and more nypd presence and more efforts to reach young may not show the outward signs people in particular and dissuade them away from these of antisemitism . Kind of acts. Is it just about reaching . Violent antisemitism. I dont want to chalk this up to well, you hit the nail right on the head for a large part of economic opportunity, which some the problem. People might say. These mad dog, lone mad dog theyre not getting the actors are sometimes hard to opportunity and theyre stop. One thing is, you know, the susceptible to this belief. And theyre susceptible to social media platforms blaming others and wanting to take out their rage on those others that they blame. Allow the hate speech. Is there enough being done just when we find these mad dog actors, sometimes they have been at the gut level, at the base posting a lot of antisemitic level here in new york city, to or, you know, hatred against make sure that people who might muslims or hindus or whoever fall through the cracks are they want to attack. Taken care of . The lgbtq community. That theyre caught before they get down there. They they post all this that somebody is there to say, stuff. Hey, we can look out for you. Its hate. Well, look. We can get you a job. These social media platforms are we can help you with this. We can talk to you. Not subject to the first is there a safety net in this amendment. Only the government is subject to the First Amendment where the city that can, potentially, find those people and stop them from government cant repress speech. Free speech. Ounded in history. To to those a c say we wont allow that speech. We wont allow hate speech in our platform. So how many times should a person be allowed to constantly what we saw in the last century post that rhetoric, that vulgar where hate speech grew into screed . I say one time. Political movements that then knock their ip off. Became violent movements. We dont need it in america. That was very much rooted in we dont need that. And and the social media economic reality, as well. Company can do that if they want yeah. We cannot pretend those as part of their contract. Things dont go together. Theyre not relegated to the a lot of the frustration that same thing as the government. The government cannot do that because our constitution doesnt led to the election of donald allow it. Trump was economic. Im not purporting the you know, we understand there government should do that. Are other factors as well. We dont investigate people for but we should be honest about their beliefs. This is a piece of the equation. But private companies are not do we have an extraordinarily under the same restrictions. So, jim, youre saying part strong safety net in new york of the problem is social media. City . Yes. Do we have constant efforts to and the the ease with which ensure, god forbid anyone is people can spread hateful ideas homeless, they have a right to on social media. Shelter in this city. We have extraordinary job training programs. Exactly right we have a booming economy. Weve added 500,000 jobs in the last six years. There is a lot that helps us address exactly what youre saying. We increased the minimum wage to 15 an hour. All these things help. Is everyone being reached . Absolutely not. And is there frustration, economic frustration thats somehow part of this equation . I think thats a fair concern. What would you want to do to change that . Look. I think we in this city know weve got to keep investing in communities, particularly communities that havent done as well. But to actually have the kind of economy that works for everyday people. To have Affordable Housing on a really global scale, if you will. That requires actual federal involvement that we havent had literally for decades. This city, any city in america, suburbs as well, used to depend on the federal government for an active role in things like the creation of Affordable Housing. Thats been gone for a long time for all intents and purposes. And it is another piece of this puzzle. Do you see things changing . Getting better with social media as it is . And currently, not changing with the leadership structures we have. With the Homeland Security director tweeting that its an immigrant and that immigrant family and thats why he was insinuating that thats why he was violent. And then deleting that. I mean, do you see this Getting Better . I do, ultimately. First of all, what ken said w was but yeah. Ill tell you why i think it can get better. You know new york city. Crown heights, 1991. We had a horrible, painful conflict between communities. We had riots. Back then, it would have been hard to believe that would heal. For decades now, we have seen people of all the different parts of that community, all the different ethnic backgrounds, come together. And weve seen a community that got more and more peaceful, more and more unified. We have been to those bad times and we found a way back. We have new challenges with social media. We have new challenges with the national environment. But in the end, most people are good. Most people want unity. I certainly found this going all over america this year. Most people want to resolve these issues. We, in local government, have to be there to meet them. Were going to have community patrols, in fact, in places like crown heights, that are multiethnic. That send a message of unity. That reach out to young people on all sides of the equation and say, you know, dont give in to hate. Its only going to lead to a bad place for all of us. So with painstaking work, we can. But we must have our federal government be part of the solution. We must have change with our social media companies. Or else well be fighting a headwind that often will be very, very difficult to beat. Mayor bill de blasio. We appreciate it. And turning now to news from georgia.

Text resolution to 65190 to learn more. Amid the impasse over an impeachment trial in the senate, the New York Times dropped a major story today with new details about the president s decision to withhold hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid to ukraine as he pressed for an investigation into his political rivals. The story includes new reporting, which illustrates just how alarmed the president s top advisors were with his conduct and how isolated the president was in his decisionmaking. According to the times, the president S National Security team, including his defense secretary, his secretary of state, and hiS National Security advisor, all met withn and release the aid. One by one, they made their case, the times reports, but the president s responded ukraine is a corrupt country. We are pissing away our money. Also, among the new revelations is a warning to the president s acting chief of staff, mick mulvaney, via a top National Security aide who cautioned, expect congress to become unhinged if the aid was frozen. Adding that it might further fuel the narrative that President Trump was prorussia. That tidbit comes as we learn today that Vladimir Putin has invited President Trump to moscow. For more, im joined here on set by politico chief economic correspondent and cnbc contributor ben white. Republican strategist and msnbc political analyst susan del percio. And democratic strategist and former new York State Democratic Party executive director basil. All right, guys. So for fear of the president looking like he is more aligned with russia, dont do this is what one aide said. Congress is going to get become unhinged. Congress didnt just become unhinged. They impeached him. Exactly. So i guess i mean, this story fills in a lot of holes to what we already knew. My question is, gosh, i i wish
