the shooter. also this morning in washington, the fbi conducting a historic search of president biden's home in coordination with his attorneys and finding more classified documents now as the white house deals with the legal implications, the political fallout is also getting worse. a warning from russia this morning. if germany sends its leopard 2 tanks to the war zone, ukraine will pay. this comes as two major western allies are locked in a standoff. a tv weather man jumped on the subway by a group of teenagers after he tried to help an elderly man. now these teens are free. "cnn this morning" starts right now. we'll start here in. after the massive manhunt, the gunman is dead, the sheriff said he shot and killed himself in

his own van when police tracked him down hours after the mass shooting. we're told that he also went to a second dance studio to kill even more people, but the people inside were able to wrestle his gun away. cnn has learned the gunman was a frequent patron of the same dance hall he attacked. it is where he met his ex-wife. the shooting struck fear into the local asian community here as it celebrated the lunar new year. >> we see elders walking around all the time. this has been a safe neighborhood for them to walk around and have community, historic taiwanese, chinese community. to see this happen in this place is shattering. >> the sheriff telling everyone that the rampage could have been much worse if the gunman hadn't been disarmed at the second dance hall. he says that the gun was a semi-automatic assault pistol with an extended magazine which is now illegal to purchase in

california. >> gun violence needs to stop there's too much of it, and i hope that this tragedy doesn't just go on a long list of many others that we don't even talk about until the next one comes up. >> new this morning, we're hearing from the young man who says he wrestled the gun away from the shooter and saved countless lives. i want you to listen to this interview that he just did with abc. >> i needed to get the weapon away from him. i needed to take this weapon, disarm him or else everybody would have died. when i got the courage, i lunged at him with both my hands, grabbed the weapon, and we had a struggle. we struggled into the lobby, trying to get this gun away from each other. he was hitting me across the face, bashing the back of my head. i was trying to use my elbows to separate the gun away from him,

create some distance. finally, at one point i was able to pull the gun away from him, shove him aside, create some distance, point the gun at him, intimidate him and say, get the hell out of here! i'll shoot! get away! go! >> i want to bring in kyung lah and josh campbell. kyung, i want to speak with you first. you're a member of this community. your family is members of this community as well. your mother, i should say. in listening to that young man who helped to wrestle that gun away, it speaks to the trauma that's in this community, how someone was brave enough to stand up to what was happening, but also the fear. he said he was afraid at the time and didn't even realize -- he was acting on adrenaline. didn't even realize the bruises that he had and the danger he was in at the moment. >> he's working at his family's business. he's a coder. he's not trained to do this.

if you notice, he's quite young. so to have all of this background of nothing and to suddenly step up and save a community, it's truly extraordinary. you're talking about the community here, the trauma. my mother called me 20 times, just completely astonished and afraid. this is a community where you have so many asian-americans walking about freely. it feels extraordinarily safe. i've been to the grocery stores here. the costco. i bought my car in this community. it is a place where asian-americans come together, work together and live together peacefully. it is astonishing that this happened within the community, but also to have a hero, a young hero just step up and stop it. >> they still don't know why, josh. there's still no motive. >> they're still working to determine that. quite frankly, they may never know. the suspect is obviously deceased. we know they're going back trying to interview people who

knew him, look to see if there was any type of precursor to this. you look at this face. kyung and i were just talking about this. there's so many other cases where we see young men conducting these attacks. this is the outlier. you have a 72-year-old man here. there will be a lot of questions, will this be the injustice collector, people who build grievances, gather them and finally act on them? we'll have to wait and see. we were talking earlier as well. this also gets to the firearm that was used. although that gun is now illegal in california, the suspect who was 72 years old, did he buy it decades ago when it was still legal. >> but at 72 years old, it seems so odd for someone to be a grievance collector this way. >> one thing i want to point out, adding on to that. he's 72. there was a mass shooting just about a year ago in laguna woods, california, in orange county. that shooter drove from las

vegas, from nevada and shot at a church, killing one person, wounding several others. he was 68. i think there are some questions that the asian american community needs to ask itself about signs and how to talk to the police. if they don't have the language to speak to police, to call upon their younger kids to do that. >> a lot more we have to figure out here. we would imagine a briefing will be happening some time this morning. the last briefing last night was at 4:30 pacific time, 7:30 eastern time last night. they said it was going to be the last briefing of the night. i would imagine they'll give one this morning, to try to figure out what is the motive, what is the situation with this gun. was it illegal to purchase? much more to go here. >> questions overall in the united states. that shooting in monterey park was the deadliest in the u.s. so far this year. far from the first this year.

30 mass shootings in 2023 have left at least 59 people dead across america. we're only three weeks into the new year. last year there were 647 mass shootings according to the archive which you can see here is up significantly from just five or six years ago. in the past year alone america has experienced mass shootings in zit tease from uvalde, texas, to buffalo, new york, highland park, illinois, corsicana, texas, just to name a few. >> i want to bring in california assemblyman mike fong, monterey park is part of the district he represents. good morning to you. i'm sorry we're having to meet on such a horrific occasion. how is the community holding up? what are people saying? >> good morning, don. thank you for having me this morning. a tremendous sadness in our community. our community is grieving and mourning the loss of ten nnlt lives here in the san gabriel

valley, here in the city of monterey park, and playing for the recovery of the ten additional folks in the hospital right now. it's been a very challenging time. we're mourning and grieving this massacre. >> i'm told this happened just hours after you were on stage with the local leaders to celebrate this lunar new year celebration here. this is a predominantly asian community here. i believe it's like 65% asian community here. >> correct. >> this is one of the biggest celebrations of your community. >> on a day when we're supposed to be celebrating and celebrating family, celebrating community, it's the largest celebration in our community. over 100,000 people were here during the daytime. the mayor and city officials and dignitaries ak across the region celebrating the year of the rabbit. to have the peace shattered a few hours later was devastating and shocking. >> like most of us, you probably watched the briefing last night.

as i mentioned moments ago, they said it was the last briefing of the night. i would imagine one will be announced this morning. are you getting updates from local officials, law enforcement, about the possible motive here? >> in terms of a motive, i haven't heard any information. i'm in contact with local city officials including the mayor of monterey park, henry lo and also corresponding state and federal officials to monitor the situation closely. >> law enforcement, they're calling the young man, the two people who helped to wrestle the gun away in el hambra, they're calling them heroes. do you agree that they are heroes, that they saved this from becoming much worse than it would have been. >> very proud of those two heroes that stepped upped to wrestle the gun away from the perpetrator. this could have been much worse and added to the grief in our community. >> what's your response to people? you mentioned you're out speaking to them, the sense of

loss and grief people have. what do you say to them? >> it's very hard to provide -- we're at a loss for words when we're talking to folks, and really trying to make sure they know we're here for them and we can provide the resources from the state and local government. if anybody is dealing with trauma, with any issues that they need assistance with, please visit the langley center on emerson avenue to receive the assistance of crisis respond. our district office is open to serve as well. anything we can be helpful with, please reach out. >> assembly member fong, we appreciate your time. sorry you're having to deal with us. >> thank you so much. prayers to all the family. >> absolutely. >> thank you. we're reporting on this. we have to remember, poppy, over the past couple years we've been reporting on all the anti-asian hate crime going on through out the country. they have been dealing with this. and now this mass shooting on top of that. >> as you said, don, a community that is 65% represented by the

aapi community. thank you very much, don. we'll get back to you very soon. jury selection begins in the murder trial of alex murdock, the man accused of killing his wife and his son. we'll take you live to south carolina. a group of teenagers assaulting a fox news weather man who was trying to stop them from harassing an elderly man on the subway. >> i was like, yo, guys, cut that out. they decided, all right. if he's not going to get it, then you're going to get it. and boy, did they give it to me. support your immune systemem with a potent blend of nutrients and emerge your best every day with emergen-c (vo) give your business an advantage riright now, with nationwide 5g from t-mobile for business. unlock new insights and efficiency, with leading ultra-capacity 5g coverage. t-mole for business has 5g that's ready right now. hi, we've both got a big birthday coming .

recovering this morning after four teenagers attacked him yesterday while riding the subway in new york city. adam klotz says the teens were hassling an older man when he intervened. that's when the teens turned on him. let's bring in our colleague brynn gingras. so scary. >> so scary. pretty brutal beating. adam klotz, 37 years old. he was on the subway system here in new york city. he said he was coming home from watching the giants game. it was early sunday morning. i want you to hear what he says happened next. >> hear me out, though. you should see the other guy. oh, my side -- don't laugh. my side is so much worse than my face. this older gentleman was being hassled by this group of seven or eight teens. i was like, yo, guys, cut that out. they decided, all right, if he's not going to get it, you're

going to get it. boy, did they give it to me. they had me on the ground. my ribs are bruised up, too. they got their hits in. that guy, he got out of there. he's fine. i got x-rays. i'm okay. it's all going to heal. it's all good. you know what i mean. new york city! new york city! >> you can see he's making somewhat light of it. he says more of a bruised ego than bruised bones. he got beaten up pretty badly. we're told by authorities that the teens got away, but they were able to arrest three of them. one is a 17-year-old and two are 15-year-olds. that's what scary. he said in part of his instagram where are the parents? why are these kids on the subway at 1:00 in the morning. >> they were arrested, but they've been release zbld they're juveniles. technically all police can do is write a juvenile report for assault and release them to their parents. they were released to their

parents. >> wow. brynn gingras, thank you for that. this morning the jury selection will begin in the highly anticipated murder trial of alex murdock. his attorneys say they are fully prepared. murdock is a former south carolina lawyer accused of murdering his wife and their son paul in june of 2021. he's pleaded not guilty. our randi kaye has been following this case for months. she joins us live in walter borrow, south carolina. randi, what can we expect from this trial? >> reporter: good morning. jury selection should be getting under way shortly. we're getting a look with new evidence. a source with knowledge of the investigation has confirmed that there's a snapchat video that paul murdock sent, the son that was killed, at 7:56 p.m. the night of june 7, 2021. that would have been just moments before he was gunned down. the prosecutors are saying that's critical evidence to the case. they asked the judge to subpoena the snapchat representative to come here and testify. the judge has signed off on

that. that is just one piece of evidence, poppy, we're expecting to see in a mountain of evidence as this trial gets under way. >> alec murdock says he called 911 after finding his wife and son bleeding at their property in south carolina. >> what is your name. >> my name is alex murdock. >> that was june 7, 2021. for the first time we're learning how many times 52-year-old maggie murdock and 22 yard son were shot. this latest filing includes an affidavit from a forensic expert hired by state law enforcement. the expert offers a disturbing picture of the murder scene. two blasts hit paul, but the fatal shot to his shoulder and head was so violent that his

brain was completely detached from his head, according to the expert. the affidavit also includes pictures from the crime scene which shows the property's dog ken nells where paul murdaugh was shot? >> are they breathing? >> no, ma'am. >> reporter: the affidavit details how maggie murdaugh was shot five times with a rifle including one gunshot to the back of her head and scalp. while the sequence of the gunshots was not clear, the experts concluded at least one of the shots was fired while she was on the ground holding herself up on her knees and her right hand with her shoulders and head down. also, court documents show blood spatter found on the t-shirt alex murdaugh was wearing on the night of the murders could prove he was in close proximity to at least one of the victims when they were shot. in a court affidavit filed this week, the state's forensic expert stated there appears to be transfer and spatter stains on the front of murdaugh's

t-shirts. his lawyers argue the blood got on his shirt when he touched the victims after finding them and denied he was at the house when the murders occurred. prosecutors say he had a motive, to hide his financial crimes. alex murdaugh defrauded clients, co-workers and family members of nearly $9 million according to prosecutors. >> the day of reckoning was upon him, and he was out of cards to play. >> reporter: that alleged motive dates back to a february 2019 boat crash during which paul murdaugh was allegedly driving drunk. 19-year-old mallory beach was killed in the crash. because alex murdaugh owned the boat, her family filed a civil suit against him. his financial records likely would have been revealed at a scheduled hearing in june 2021, but maggie and paul murdaugh were killed a few days before, so the hearing was canceled which is why, prosecutors say, he killed his wife and son.

>> he's still trying to prevent who he really is from being out there. >> murdaugh's defense team pushed back on the alleged motive. >> he's still trying -- no doomsday reckoning in that regard. >> reporter: there is more evidence that could put alec murdaugh at the scene of the crime at the time of the murders. there is cell phone video from paul murdaugh's cell phone which contains audio of him talking to his wife and son. that time stamp on that ought i don't/video is 8:44 p.m. prosecutors say the murders took place between 8:30 p.m. and 10:06 p.m. that timeline is very key. >> randi, thank you very much. back to the top story, the gunman that killed ten people at a ballroom dance studio just as the city's largest asian american community was

so welcome back everyone to "cnn this morning" coming to you live from monterey park, california, the scene of america's latest mass shooting. here is what we know right now. the gunman who ultimately took his own life has been identified as 72-year-old huu can tran. he opened fire saturday night at a ballroom dance studio, killing ten people, wounding ten others. we also learned he used to be a regular patron at the dance hall and met his ex-wife there. he then went to another dance hall at a nearby city, but bystanders disarmed him and he escaped in his van. the sheriff says the gun he used was an semi-automatic pistol which is now illegal to purchase in california. more details about that will be coming out in the days ahead. the tragedy is hitting hard among asian-americans, many of whom have been dealing with an increase in overall violence

against the community, especially anti-asian hate crimes since the pandemic. joining me is the executive director of the aapi equity alliance and co-founder of stop aapi hate, mon you kol carney. i was wondering about something i heard you say, that this may not be a traditional hate crime against the aapi community, but it's still targeted and still terror. he terrorized the community. >> absolutely. let me just say first of all how devastated we are by this, and that our hearts are with the community right now as well as our thoughts and prayers. it's not the who or the why, but it's what has happened to our community after three years of anti-asian hate. we're once again being targeted.

the perpetrator knew this was lunar new year. he knew that thousands of us would be out this weekend, and so he came to this place and he terrorized the community with the shooting here, and then tried to do the same thing in el hambra. >> as you look around, there were dozens of people here, the place we're standing in front of, and in many other areas, celebrating the lunar new year. you have been speaking to some of those people, what are you hearing from the community? >> there's so much fear, don, and trepidation. folks thought this would be the year we can go out and celebrate. the state of california made it a state holiday for the first time ever, lunar new year. we thought we could put so much of what has happened behind us. in fact, with this incident people are anxious, they

continue to be depressed, especially the elderly community. we did a report with aarp. 98% in 2022 said the united states was a more physically dangerous place for them, and they're not wrong, even after what happened on saturday night. we're mobilized. >> look at the screen there. 11,500 reported incidents. what do you want people to know? >> well, there are a few different things. one is that our communities absolutely have been impacted by hate, and the hate doesn't always come from outside the community. it can come from inside. sometimes there are also other systemic issues. so it can be racism, it can be discrimination and it can also be misogyny. we have heard that there may

have been interpersonal violence involved here, maybe issues of domestic violence. we know it's gun violence. so all of those really have come together in what's happened. so we need long-term solutions. >> congresswoman said last night during the press conference, is there any his stris of domestic abuse. i was surprised she brought that up, but that's important. >> right. we need to know what happened so that we can ensure it doesn't happen again, right? so we can provide the resources that the community needs. let me just share that, you know, as part of stop aapi hate and the aapi equity alliance, we have 40-plus coalition member organizations. they are on the ground right now providing mental health services, legal assistance. there's now a gofundme page for folks who want to provide help directly to victims and

community members. so we're reeling, but at the same time we're resilient. we are out there so people can get the help we need. >> manju, thank you. sorry we had to meet under these circumstances. >> thank you. >> such an important conversation to be having. also here in new york we're monitoring what's happening in washington when it comes to president biden's staff. sources say he's going to be replacing his chief of staff with former covid response coordinator. we have the report and the latest next. democrats in the senate growing more critical and vocal of president biden's handling of classified documents after more of those classified documents were found at his home on friday. >> this is not supposed to happen. whether it was the fault of a staffer or attorney, it makes no difference. the elected official bears ultimate responsibility.

clark, is expected to appear in court after she was arrested during a protest in boston. riley dowel is facing several charges including assault after an officer was injured. police say they found her defacing the parkland bandstand monument. in a tweet the congresswoman is weighing in, addressing the arrest saying, quote, i love riley and this is a very difficult time in this cycle of joy and pain in parenting. this will be evaluated by the legal system and i am confident in that process. this morning we're learning about the man who is set to replace ron klain as white house chief of staff. president biden selected jeff zients who led the coronavirus response effort. this is what kaitlan did all day yesterday. i was texting you as i was reading it. it's fascinating because they're different. biden and zients are different. they manage differently, but this is his topic. very impressed by how he handled covid? >> really entering because jeff

zients doesn't have deep political experience. he's a businessman, former consultant. he was brought in to help when biden first took office manage the covid response. he was seen as this master implementer, as people described him, in the west wing. taking over for ron klain who has been in the job for quite a long time. two years is a very long time to be chief of staff. it's a very tough job and really demanding. it's interesting that jeff sooins zients is taking over. one, he was picked by ron klain for the talent sf, not necessarily for the chief of staff job. they thought there would be a lot of turnover after the midterms and thought democrats weren't going to do well. he was looking for more senior staff, cabinet officials. they didn't have the turnover they thought they were going to happen. he was conducting the search. it didn't really materialize. ron klain is the most significant departure. >> what about the moment, the

middle of the fourth batch of classified documents they found improperly stored by president biden and weeks ahead, potentially, of his official announcement to run for president again. >> it's not an easy job he's walking into by any means. the chief of staff job is famously tough. you're managing the west wing, also working so closely with the president. what we heard from sources is essentially he'll be focused more on the running government aspect. the political portfolio is going to fall to those other names that are senior staffers to biden that work in the west wing, that did not get the job. they have a republican-controlled house. biden is set to announce his re-election run soon, in a matter of weeks we believe. now he's going to be dealing with the fallout from the special counsel investigation. always a tough job, but especially now. >> especially now. we also learned saturday night of a historic search by the fbi of a sitting president's home. the justice department seizing more than half a dozen documents from biden's delaware residence, a stch done at the invitation of

biden's attorneys. agents were there for nearly 13 hours. some of what was found dates back to his time as vice president and even further back to his time in the senate. >> you've been in congress for 40 years. you've handled classified material for a lot of those years, probably most of them. how concerned are you about this? >> well, i'm concerned -- there's a standard we fellow when it comes to members of congress and classified information. the door to my office is closed, the person that presents the document to me takes it out of a locked briefcase, hands it to me and watches as i read it. when i finish reading it, he takes it back and puts it in the briefcase and leaves the scene. that's how carefully we review these documents. to think that any of them ended up in boxes in storage, one place or the other, is just

unacceptable. >> joining us now is dana bash. dana, these were amazing interviews. i always love the sunday shows. these were amazing interviews you had yesterday. hearing dick durbin talk about that and hearing him talk about his concern when you asked do democrats kind of think that biden has lost the high ground here when it comes to this classified documents discussion. >> yeah. and his answer was basically yes. there really are two questions here. the most important question is the substance of it, the substance of what happened, what's there, why did it happen. that's the most critical. the other issue, which is very, very prominent as you were just talking about is the political issue. the questions of this, all of these documents being found, and the whole notion of it happening against the backdrop of the former president. we've talked very much, and we need to continue to talk about

the differences in these situations, predominantly in the way that each man handled the classified information once they found out that it was there. but, you know, when you have the current president saying many times over how horrible he thought it was that donald trump had classified information, it is true that politically it mixes things up, it messes things up for democrats. that's what the number two democrat in the senate, who happens to be the judiciary chairman in the senate, was acknow acknowledging. he served with joe biden. he's close with joe biden. he loves joe biden. he and other democrats are clearly frustrated. >> that and joe manchin saying it's unbelievable and calling it totally irresponsible. let's talk about something else. in that interview with senator joe manchin, you asked him about something that happened today. ruben gallego thinking about

running in the state of arizona. you asked manchin who he would back. without directly answering, he spoke very highly of kyrsten sinema. what did you take from that? >> what i took is that he is obviously somebody who sees kyrsten sinema as a partner in a lot of the issues that they fought in the last congress, and certainly will continue to fight in this congress. primarily what we saw actually in davos last week -- >> the high five. >> right. was a viral moment where the two were high-fiving over the question of the senate filibuster and the fact that they both fought to preserve the senate filibuster on legislation to ensure that things slow down, which is not something that a lot of democrats in the base are happy about because it stymied the president's agenda in a big way over the last two years. but the answer that he gave was

effectively -- we kind of went round and round, but somewhere in there he did say yes, that he would likely back kyrsten sinema who, of course, is now an independent. she left the democratic party, if she decides to run against ruben gallego who we thought was going to announce, and he made it official this morning, he's a democrat who will challenge kyrsten sinema for her senate seat if she decides to seek re-election herself. i also want to ask you, dana, about the other thing happening on the hill. you covered the hill for a long time. hakeem jeffries is setting up this clash with speaker kevin mccarthy over adam schiff and eric swalwell being on committees. he says he's still going to name him to that. mccarthy says no, they cannot serve. this is what they believe democrats set up when they stripped others of committee assignments, this is the retribution in response to that. what is this going to look like?

>> ugly. this is the ultimate political tit for tat that you're sighing here. hakeem jeffries, the democratic leader, is trying to protect two people who he believes have been wrongly blocked from a very important committee, the house intelligence committee. the republicans, now speaker kevin mccarthy, he insists that particularly in the case of eric swalwell that he handled classified information imp impr improperly. we have seen no evidence of that. privately democrats insist that he has not -- that that is not true, according to federal law enforcement agents. by the way, if that were true, why was he allowed to sit on that committee for almost a decade? we don't know the answer exactly to what republicans are accusing swalwell of. when you take a step back, we know what's going on here. what's going on is that democrats removed marjorie

taylor greene and paul gosar from their committees for very aggressive hateful comments that they made that went against the tradition of the house, traditionally each leader decides which members of their own party sits on committees, and mccarthy is trying payback here, and hakeem jeffries made a point, made a stimt by nominating them to say we're not going to let you do that. the truth is it is a majority that has the power, and they probably will be allowed to do that. >> dana, thank you. as kaitlan said, great jam-packed show yesterday. great interviews. >> good to see you, thanks. coming up, we'll take you to graceland and the memorial for lisa marie presley. ♪ ♪ snoe ♪ i know it's hard to keep an

we're back now in monterey park, california, at the scene of this weekend's deadly shooting here. ten people dead, that sent ten people to the hospital as well. and we're at the facility called the star dance studio where there were dozens and dozens of people here when it happened. and just looking at this memorial that has been set up, just by the people here who are mourning and wanting to pay

their respects, as i look into the hall here, there's still the coffee tins and the cardboard coffee drums still inside here, pizza boxes. obviously, people fleeing this and trying to get to safety. as we were talking to one of our guests earlier, she talked about the memorial that has been set up here. flowers and candles, obviously, as we see these makeshift memorials that are set up at so many of these awful shootings that we so sadly have to go through around the country. but for here, it's interesting because there are numbers on the flowers and on the candles that are set up here, numbers dedicated to the number of people who were killed and injured at this place. and of course, flowers and then there are fruit, oranges and apples here. and we're told that is for good health after a meal, even some winter melon that we're seeing here. but all of this just moments after this happened. and when police cleared this place to deem it safe, people

started to bring these symbols of expression and of love and to honor the people who were hurt and injured here. and you know, poppy and kaitlan, it's really awful, because you guys have been on these scenes as well where you see these memorials pop up and some of them become larger and larger over time. and i keep wondering, when are we not going to have to do this, to set up memorials for people who have been just randomly shot, indiscriminate gly shot b someone who is just angry and happens to have a semiautomatic weapon. >> it's a good question. >> it is the question, right? but this is america, today. i thought that when i woke up to the news, another mass shooting. don, what did people say to you when you landed? i know what it's like when you come into a breaking news situation and you come, you know, there and there are many people around and there are the authorities and you're waiting for the press conference. i just wonder what people around you were saying? >> well, just in full

transparency, you know, we pull up on these scenes and most of the time, it's communities that we have never gone to before. and you know what? sometimes we go to places that we have been before, right? there'll be another shooting in a place that we had been before, sadly. but i'm just going to be honest with you. when i got the call, i just grabbed my bag, jumped on to a plane. i didn't even have an iphone challenger. the first place i went to was to try to get an iphone challenger. and there were people -- some of the stores that i had gone to had not been open and they had just opened the store, so there were people waiting in line at the asian supermarket here, trying to get groceries, finally, were being allowed back into the store. there were security guards who were standing at the local drugstore, just to make sure that people were safe, because people weren't feeling safe at that moment. and dozens and dozens and dozens of media here, live trucks, satellite trucks, people from all over the country and of course the local media. so sadly -- and police tape, you

know, wrapping the area. and we can barely get in, so i had to grab my suitcase and walk a couple of blocks to get in. but that's how the scenes are when we, you know, drive up on these places, sadly, when people have been killed. >> yeah. and when you asked the question, when is that going to stop, ask the white house? regularly, you see the white house lowering the flags to half staph after there's been a shooting like this one. they lowered it yesterday. the white house is set to hold a lunar new year event later this week. we'll see what president biden and they have to say about that. >> don, thank you. i know you'll be with us throughout the day. we'll see you back in just about an hour, co-anchoring from there at 10:00 a.m. eastern. don, thanks very, very much. plus, elvis presley's only child has been laid to rest. this happened over the weekend at the famed graceland estate in memphis. lisa marie presley was rushed to the hospital on january 12th after suffering a cardiac arrest. family, friends, and fans gathered sunday to honor her life and to pay tribute.
