This narrative. she says that were not included here to discuss a senator chris coons of delaware, a longtime friend and ally of president biden. senator coons, thanks so much for joining us. so what s your response to the article? surely you acknowledge that any 81-year-old seems a little well slower than he did it say 61 or 71. that s just the aging process. well, that s right, jake. but frankly, this particular article and i know both of the reporters well, they re great reporters struck me as maybe this was an editorial choice, not including any of the clear and supportive and strong quotes that a whole series of us who are democratic senators offered based on our recent experience with president biden, but they did choose to quote three different republicans, including jim risch republican senator, who gave very critical quotes. so look, i frankly think it was misrepresented. it was edited in a way that was designed to produce a particular result. i gave a long and detailed quote about some direct experiences i ve had with the president recently where he shown mastery
No man s land. that s right. you had to keep your eyes and ears open. david: and there were times when the germans took aim. their idea was to try to knock you out. david: do you remember losing any of the medics? oh, we lost quite a few of our medics. david: the students had their own questions. how did you mentally prepare yourself to go to war, knowing that there was a possibility that you weren t going to return back home? you never thought about that. you always went with the idea you re going to make it through. what would you say is something you gained from the war and something you lost? i think it made you grow up sooner. i ll tell you what, you did an awful lot of praying, at least i did. thank you for your service, i mean, you put your life on the line. well, thank you. david: the applause from those students, now fueling jake on his journey back to normandy. impressive, isn t it? david: allen going back, too,
Trees. we knew the people had to be killed. you grow up in a hurry. david: for five years now, we have been documenting our world war ii veterans. we lose 131 heroes every day in the u.s. fewer than 1% of them are still here. in this towing jersey jersey, a quite world war ii veteran has been coming to work here since 1964. tim, how are you? this is an honor for me. tim is 102. you still remember, you were 22 years old when you landed on that beach? yes, i do. what you were doing was, you had to move. keep moving. david: you didn t have time to think about that s right. david: he was a medic. you were there to help the injured. yeah. david: and there were many. yes. david: he shows me the photos and the notes he took as a young man at war. you wrote here, bloody beach.
Home to his mother. dear mom, i suppose i should begin this by telling you i am somewhere in france. david: so many of those young american soldiers kept diaries. june 6th, 1944. invasion started. reporter: harold s diary had no entries for the next five days. he was with the fourth infantry division, and he told us he watched the medics trying to save his friends. they were trying to perf perform sometimes they would be in worse shape than the men they was trying to take care of. we all had what we called a buddy. and we knew that that buddy would give his life for us. and vice versa. david: one of those brave combat medics at the war, jake, who is now 99. jake. hi. david: it s an honor. nice to meet you. david: nice to meet you, too.
There was a job that had to be done, somebody had to do it. we did it. i never seen as many dead men on the beaches. you couldn t stop and help anybody. because they kept hollering, get off the beach, get off the beach. get set to go fire those guns. seeing all of these boys that was killed, just laying there on the beach, it was just just tough. we were all young. man, i was scared. i didn t realize what war was until that day. it was awful. there was no sleeping on that ship. so, we were up all night. we had to climb down the net. big cargo net climbing down the side of the ship, with your equipment. if you slipped, you wound up in between and being crushed. there were parachutes in

Follows the facts and the law and jake, this all comes as republicans are grappling with the fact that they are presumptive nominee is now a convicted felon. i talked a number of republican what gives including in swing districts and many of them actually are aligning themselves with donald trump s contention that this is an unfair verdict. i did ask the senate republican leader mitch mcconnell today, if you he s 100% behind trump. now that he s a convicted felon, he said jake, that the prospect of the case should never have been broad, but he did not say if he still supports i m jake manu. today, house speaker mike johnson unveiled the plan of house republicans to go after the justice department for alleged abuses. tell us more about that. yeah, this plan is still coming together. in fact, jim jim jordan, the house judiciary committee, chairman, has been pushing speaker johnson and tried to go take aim at funding for the department mean, of justice going after some of the prosecution s at the state and local level, johnson indicated
