1:06 pm
three weeks is good nothing long enough to just get us a check to pacify us for a little while to get us to the next step and then once we get back in there if they shut down again we won't be able to leave throw up feel like they're building a wall around us as employees marland wilson another federal employee also felt the announcement left more uncertainty. it could happen in the government might be reopening but across america like here in kansas city where there are nine thousand federal government employees it will take time to get things back up and running again outside this federal government office here in this city there's still no cars in the parking lot and the doors remain shut and locked many people worry that after the three week deadline the government could shut down once again that's why at this software side kansas city they are still handing out food to those who need it we've got chicken rice peanut butter we

1:09 pm
it's very interesting to see the kind of people that the president united states have surrounded himself with in this connection to the integrity of our elections is obviously. something we have to get the truth about wiki leaks has denied doing anything wrong and the president reacted in a tweet again calling it a witch hunt and that there was no collusion but this is the first indictment to clearly link the hacked e-mails with the trump campaign and bruce fein says more charges are still possible you can issue what's called superseding indictment and add counts that aren't there necessarily in the first grand jury allegations so you can say you hold it to ratchet it up say all right if you don't cooperate we're going to bring in more indictments against you so that's certainly a possibility roger stone has been known for decades as a man who revels in police dirty political tricks who doesn't back down sending that message by tattooing nixon's face on his back netflix even made
