5:00 am
so far, they say there's no evidence of any leaks that crews are monitoring the water and air quality, but obviously a cause of concern for that community. a woman in hawk black hawk, colorado, facing theft charges now and what could be the largest casino heist in colorado history. cops arrested cashier sabrina eddie after they say surveillance video caught her taking half a million dollars in cash out of the vault. eddie says somebody called her and said that they were head of operations at the casino and to bring the money to a lawyer at a specific address. but when she got there, it was actually a hospital. she said. she handed the money over to a man who came to her window and went back to get more. she has been booked into the county jail. seeing this morning continues right now.
5:01 am
i had no idea at the time. what was going on? i didn't know if it was like a police chase that ended up in a shootout. it was when i saw the teacher come out of the woods and the kids find her that my heart sunk. that was jason hoffman. he was on with us last hour. talking about just happened to be driving by the school and soft kids running, he says. out of the woods into their parents' arms. he stopped traffic to help facilitate the whole thing, and then took some video of it. i mean, just horrific all the way around, the more we hear, the worse it gets, but it is. it's nice to see someone like that. who did take a heroic action that day who got involved and tried to help, even if he was downplaying his own role. we have a lot to get to this morning. good morning, everyone. poppy is off. we have new video. that shows young children escaping and running across the street during the school shooting in nashville, and we're learning alarming new details about the shooter's past . also this morning for vice president mike pence, has now been ordered to testify to a
5:02 am
grand jury about one on one conversations he had with former president trump leading up to january 6th judge blasting fox news lawyers in a billion dollar lawsuit against the network as we said, a lot to get to, but we're going to start with new details about the nashville school shooter, and they are raising major questions at this hour, including how is a person who was being treated for an emotional disorder able to legally buy seven guns and then go on for a rampage, murdering three children and three staff members at a private christian school. there's brand new reporting from the new york times, the shooter's former teacher at an art college told the times that years ago, the shooter had an emotional breakdown in her class over trouble, creating a password for the online student portal, and in recent years a shooter had been grieving on facebook about the loss of a romantic partner. we're now hearing from people who were driving near the school during the shooting and help children escape to safety,
5:03 am
including actress melissa joan hart, listen we did. my husband and i were on our way to school for conferences and luckily our kids weren't in today, and we helped a class of kindergartners across a busy highway. they were climbing out of the woods. they were trying to escape. the shooter situation at their school. so we helped all these tiny little little kids across the road and get their teachers over there, and we helped him. mom reunite with her children and i just i don't know what to say anymore. katelyn polantz talking about at the top of the hour we mentioned that we just spoke to the man who shot this video name is jason hoffman. he heard the gunshots. he stopped traffic, helping children cross the street. stop the car immediately. we jumped out the people to the left of me. stop get out! and once they see these kids crossing the road, everybody stopped and got out and made sure they were safe. luckily those were the survivors , those who did make it out of
5:04 am
the school and did cross the road. we're also learning more this morning about the three young students nine year old and the educators who were murdered , including the school's custodian, mike hill. students referred him as big mike had seven kids and 14 grandkids. his family says that mike loved to spend time with him that he had a passion. for cooking. halle scruggs, as you see here was that one of the 39 year olds who was killed her dad is actually the pastor of the church that runs that school. evelyn dick houses family says that their hearts are completely broken. they said that she was a shining light. they cannot believe that this has happened. as we are learning more about all of this and staying on top of the with the families are saying and their responses. we're also learning more about the investigation in of itself, and our cnn team has been able to trace the path that officers took to actually reach the shooter. officer wreck single bird enters through a first floor entrance at the front of the building. he and other officers quickly clear rooms as they keep moving on the first level. then the sound of gunshots sends them running up a staircase to access the second
5:05 am
floor. that's where they continued toward the sound of gunfire and take out the shooter who was standing by cathedral window all of that in the span of two minutes and 15 seconds. for more on this, i want to bring in cnn's senior crime and justice correspondent shimon prokupecz. but first we do want to warn you, this bodycam videos that you're going to see they are disturbing. we just want everyone. to be aware of that in shimon. i mean, walk us through what we're seeing here. this is the first video that is being worn by one of the officers. this is as you can see, rex engelbert officers. key thing here is you see the school administrator there? if you stop the video, you go before the school administrator is telling the officer where perhaps some of the students maybe where students are missing, and this is key, because already officers coming, they're arriving or getting key pieces of information and then katelyn polantz. year, there's another school administrator. where you will see as the officers come in this gentleman here who hands them the key so they can actually go inside,
5:06 am
which really tells you that the school officials have drilled for this, sadly have prepared for something that perhaps could happen like this. then they enter the building and that is when we start to see them going through into the actual school, right and then hear what you hear. is the officer saying, let's go. let's go and calling for other officers. to join him to sort of get into this stack team to get into this contact team so they can go in and the leading officer you see one opens the door. the other one immediately follows the other officers go in, and they start their search. they're looking for victims and obviously the key. here's they're looking for the shooter. and what you're seeing here is generally generally what you see in these situations. officers opening doors turning handles getting inside these classrooms. to look for survivors to look for victims and obviously the shooter as well. the other thing the next part of what i really want to point out katelyn polantz that these
5:07 am
officers have you're seeing really important is important. because this is sadly the world. we now live in where first responders such as this now carry these long guns. they keep them in their cars, and this all started because of active shooter situations, sort of to give officers this extra level of weaponry. they now have these weapons in their cars in most police departments, so that weapons here here and here is the thing about this. why i wanted to point this out because there's a lot of comparison being made to your body. these are the same weapons that many of the officers in yuval they had when they went into the hallway yet obviously they went , but then they retreated. uh actually didn't actually go in the classroom and waited 77 minutes. they complain. at one point they didn't have the right gear. but they did. they had those weapons. the officers there are notable, so they had the same gear, then that these officers had here have had a little more gear. at times they were wearing helmets. some of the officers some of the officers did have ballistic shields that weren't rifle rated
5:08 am
. that's a little nuance, but they went they had the gear to go in. and so this is what the officers now trained for. sadly in these situations is back in nashville. this is when the officers that are going upstairs and this is when they actually come in contact. start to go upstairs. they're hearing obviously the fire alarm. there's gunfire, and they start to realize that the shooter could be upstairs. and this is really interesting to watch. obviously, you have this officer here, engelberg with his long gone, the other officers going ahead with just their side arms and you can hear the gunshots there and then we go to the next camera, which is colossal, which is the other officer. and here, obviously, you can hear more gunshots. but here's interesting. what happens is one of the officers will push the other officers ahead the officer with the long run because that's going to be ultimately the person they want in front to take out the shooter to sort of intercept, interject the shooter and take the shooter out, and that's what we see here. and so many comparisons, obviously being drawn between what
5:09 am
happened here and how quickly this was compared to you, baldy. you know what i'm so stuck by is the key that the administrator given because that is what we saw in you, baldy when you're reporting on that, struggling to get in the door, right, struggling again endure, but they didn't even need a key there. investigators found out later on the door was unlocked, but with the other things that you're seeing here that we didn't see in your body. is school administrators being on the frontline, telling officers what's going on? who is where students are missing. kids are here. people are upstairs that didn't happen and evolved it. school administrators were nowhere to be found. yes, some of them were in lockdown, and there was a breakdown in communication because some of the officers were confused over whether or not kids are actually inside the classroom. of course, we know there were but you're seeing here. school administrators on the front line, working with officers given keys, giving instructions giving information and i think that was key here as well. potentially a lot of lives. fascinating. look at both of those. thank you for that. many in the nashville community,
5:10 am
turning to their faith to help them cope. and joining us now is placed over. he is a senior minister at woodmont christian church, just two miles from the covenant elementary school. his church served as a reunification center after the shooting, and one of the victims, nine year old evelyn dick house was part of his congregation. he joins us now. good morning. thank you so much for joining me really appreciate it. good morning. don. good to be with you. sorry that you're dealing with this. you know, the dick house family has been members of your congregation for years. how are they doing? well as you heard yesterday, they're heartbroken, and they're sad. and they're having a hard time and i want to say one thing would my baptist church is the church next to us , and that is where the families were reunited with their children, and i was just able to be there to help. it was not our church, but it was with my baptist church, but the dick house family and the other families are doing their best to
5:11 am
get through this. can you tell us a little bit about evelyn, please? um she's amazing, shining light. i know her family is going to want to tell her story at some point. and right now we're giving them time to grieve and to be surrounded by their family and friends. yeah. i was going to say you can only imagine, but i actually i can't even imagine. can anyone understand you believe unless you're dealing with it? what's going on there? this has been an awful week for the national community. but don the nashville community is strong and the faith communities all of them covenant, woodmont christian wouldn't my baptist. all the other churches in green hills have stepped up and we're doing everything we can to help these families get through this, and at a time like this, you you love each other. you support each other. you're there for each other, and nobody's walking
5:12 am
through this alone. but this has been a tragic and horrible situation. you know you were the day of the shooting. you help families reunite with their kids , and you know there's so much going on. as you said, it's a horrible situation for the nashville community. what is the response? ben? i'm sure there's been a lot of along with the grief, a lot of outpouring as well. yes you can't even imagine the support that's being shown, um not only to the families that have lost loved ones like they did dick house family. the scruggs family and others but also to the families who had children who were in this school behind me and who had to experience this and live through this. um uh, they have experienced a lot and they are reeling as well. and so everybody in nashville is rallying around this community to help get them through this. what do you guys want done there in order for this not to happen
5:13 am
again. i think that our children deserve to be able to go to school and come home in the afternoon. and so, uh, i think you know people trying to politicize this, but i think we've got to find a way to do better. we've got to find a way to do better so that when nine year olds go go to school in the morning bacon come home and be with their families that afternoon. that's what that's what they want. that's what they deserve. and i don, i don't have all the answers. um it's this happens all over our country and we've seen it. but then when it happens in your neighborhood and your backyard um, we we've got to find a way to do better. yeah. i think everyone can agree with that. questo for senior minister i woodmont christian church. thank you and be well. thank you don for having me on.
5:14 am
we want to turn now this morning to the justice department investigation into former president trump and his actions surrounding january, 6th federal judges ordered that former vice president mike pence must testify before a grand jury is investigating his old bosses role and his efforts to overturn the election. this is a significant win for the special counsel jack smith, and a setback for trump's legal team. on its face. what it means is that pence must talk to investigators about conversations that he had with trump leading up to that day. but the judge did say that pence ken still decline to answer some questions related to his actions on that day itself. january 6th . that's because he was serving as president of the senate for the certification of the 2020 presidential election, but whether or not pence will comply with this or maybe try to appeal this order. remains to be seen. we're currently reviewing. but look, let me be clear. uh i have nothing to hide. i have a constitution to uphold upheld the constitution on january 6th . we're currently speaking to
5:15 am
our attorneys about the proper way forward, and as i said, we'll have a decision in the coming days. for his part pence has already made some of that information. public has many of us know, he wrote in a book that he published last year. and he wrote that in that new year's day phone call that he had with trump. trump criticized him for being too honest when he refused to stop the 2020 election certification. trump said that hundreds of thousands of people would hate his guts and that quote people are going to think you're stupid. in addition to the details of that conversation , and others investigators, we believe are also likely hoping that pence will be able to offer some more specifics on trump's campaign, his pressure campaign against him and just a clear picture overall of the 45th president president's intentions in his mindset at the time, of course, what we know here in the big picture pence is not alone. he is just the latest in a string of former trump aides who have been ordered to testify, including the former trump chief of staff, mark meadows. he obviously was a central figure in trump's efforts. to reverse the 2020 results with that, and
5:16 am
so many other investigations going on, donald trump continues to wield enormous power on capitol hill house as house republicans pursue his fixations through their investigations there, routinely updating him on their progress every step of the way sentence. melanie zona joins us now live there. you see your melanie good morning to you? who on the hill? is keeping trump in the loop. that's the question. yeah well, in some cases, it is committee staff and general counsels. but in many cases, don it is lawmakers themselves were directly speaking to former president donald trump. at least a phonic is someone that speaks regularly to trump. she is a member of leadership. she also serves on the committee and so called weaponization of the government, and in fact, she called up trump from the house gop retreat in florida last week so she could brief him and everything that house republicans were doing to investigate them. manhattan district attorney's office trump is also really close with jim jordans. he is the chair of the judiciary committee, which is overseeing a number of these key investigations related to trump . and then, of course, there's
5:17 am
marjorie taylor green. she now serves on the house oversight committee. she has been trying to use her platform to relitigate the events of january 6th and i want to read you what she told me about trump, she said. i keep him up and everything that we're doing sometimes i'm shocked at how he knows all these things. i'm like , how do you know all this stuff ? and don? we should point out it is not just trump. there are multiple lines of unification here. some of his advisers also speak regularly. two members on capitol hill that includes boris epstein, a senior trump adviser , as well as brian jack. he was a former trump administration campaign official. he's also really close with speaker kevin mccarthy. so we do have some examples of how not only are they keeping trump up to date, but also how they are trying to exert influence. last month, a trump lawyer, joe tacopina, sent a letter to jim jordan and asked him to open investigation into the manhattan district attorney's office over alleged abuses of power. and of course, that is exactly what house guns did done. alright, melanie. thank you for the update. thanks
5:18 am

5:22 am
executives of the failed banks might face punishment. this is a textbook case of bank mismanagement. their risk the bank face interest rate risk and liquidity risk our bread and butter banking issues. the firm was quite aware of those issues. they were quite vulnerable to risk to shocks and they didn't take the actions necessary. joining us now for his perspective on that hearing, kevin o'leary, judge on shark tank and chairman of o'leary ventures. lot of buck passing that went on during that hearing yesterday, don't you think? don't you say what? you really feel this time, okay? kevin never does. you know? um were there idiot bankers? yes where they incompetent? yes when you have top lawmakers calling you the worst of the worst of the worst. it just doesn't get any worse, and it can't get any worse for those people. but they're not even the mandate or story anymore. it doesn't matter. the question becomes,
5:23 am
what do we do about regional banking in this country going forward, and that's really what's the debate here? because you know if you're a consumer, and you're sitting with more than 250,000 in a small bank in some states somewhere, and you're watching this play out in washington, with all the grandstanding of hearings what do you do? do you feel better or worse? i say you feel worse. i say this is the beginning of the demise of small banks for sure. and that we're going to end up with an oligopoly of very large institutions with an imputed concept that they're backed by the federal government. not guaranteed imputed. you're not advocating for that. you're saying that's just what's going to happen. i'm not advocating for it. i have come to the conclusion as many others have that are discussing this that i do not want to pay. for every idiot bankers. mistake it's not on me as a taxpayer, and there are many idiot bankers. i know it's harsh words, but let's put it the way it is. these people were incompetent, and that's
5:24 am
what happened now. why do i own that problem, particularly if i don't live in california? i don't care what they do in california, and that's why i'm saying okay, now that we're learning this what are we going to do about it? what's the new plan? ask one thing, because you're what you're saying. it goes with this. you're saying that every taxpayer should be asking one question right now. and what is that? what is that question? do i personally want to guarantee every tiny bank in america? that's the only question we need to answer. is it? yes or no? it was it not because you heard yelling backpedal from that when she proposed the idea that there's going to be a guarantee, no matter what the amount is in every single account in america. and the backlash that came through from that was a heavy wave. and she said, well, okay, maybe not. now we have the same question back because what you're saying is different than the white house is saying which they're saying. taxpayers aren't on the hook for this because it's being paid through the fees. but you're arguing indirectly. it is them on the hook for this. the question, though i think coming out of
5:25 am
this is then what are the solutions? because you heard a lot of the grilling that happened yesterday. you didn't hear a lot of answers about how to resolve these issues. all right, let me suggest a solution. okay okay, state and remember why we had regional banks in the first place because you as a state said, we're different than anywhere else in america. our economy is based on technology service to communities service to community. a kumbaya thing? no. your bank or mortgages for your commercial real estate. maybe your home. and it's just a wonderful feeling that you used to drive your bicycle to the regional bank and go in and take out $10. okay that's what the emotional tied to a regional bank is. is any of that reality today? no it's all done online, so we don't even need that building. however if you really want to have a regional bank, and you feel as a governor or senator of your state then you should own the risk. you should tell the people in your voting constituency that can't you have a mid sized bank? why can't you have a community bank and not you? the individual be the person who's on the hook for the bank's actions because you don't need it. that's my whole point. you get a credit card from a
5:26 am
regional bank. no you go online. you put your people have credit cards and regional banks. do you need that? you don't a lot of people do that. okay we talked about this. last time you were here. they were instrumental kumbaya. why we should keep this open. but you asked me the tough questions. well, would you personally guarantee the bank in new jersey or new york? would you personally go on the hook? because you want to have a regional bank in these states? yes or no banks are important. i think they served communities. i'm telling you, i'm from a small town in alabama. when the p p p loans were going out. people don't get online and go to jpmorgan. if they own a small mom and pop business or go to a bank, then today. it's different because you basically do everything online. so what i'm arguing is i just want you to take ownership of your come by a saying, if you really want to keep a regional bank open a sentimental person. i'm saying that i think they are actually instrumental that they're helpful to midsized communities after we had during the last time i heard from people who would you believe that? then you eat it. i'm i'm mr taxpayer in
5:27 am
any state represent all the rest of us who don't agree with you and are saying you want that you eat it, and so it is there no medium you know, if you're saying i understand what you're saying, make money or you lose money. it's binary. it's black or white. either you are going to back up that bank because you think it has merit. or you don't. i'm telling you if you take a vote in america today, and you go to every single constituency in every city and say, do you want to own the problems of a new york bank or california bank or massachusetts bank or minnesota bank? they'll put up their heads. so what does it have to do with me? i go online and get my credit card for somewhere else. this is the debate. we're having an american. what we're going to see today on the hill is just more bank bashing, and by the way, i listened to the testimony as an investor. i am never going to buy a bank stock. it's over. all right, let me look. kind of like going to my local my hometown lived. no no, no, no, no, i kind of like the idea. but i do understand what you're saying. it's not necessary. it's not needed anymore. it's not mayberry usa anymore. even though you know we have that.
5:28 am
you know, we've kind of want that nostalgia, right? we want to go to our local. you want it done, but you don't want to pay for it. i'm just saying you in the universal since i'm not saying me specifically, but do i like going into the bank and people saying, hey, mr lemon, how are you? good to see you. i like that. but i understand what you're saying. not necessary anymore. we don't necessarily need to get your time in america to ask americans do they want to pay for these things? got you all right. i understand that, but just quickly. do you think that these execs should have their bonuses clawed back? it's gonna get way worse than that for them. they're going to be negligent in the it's never good when you're sitting at home on your sofa and you're watching. congress testify with your name that you're a bad manager. i guarantee you they're all having bad hair days and unless $3 million that they got two weeks, the ceo sold his stock. he's already spent that in legal fees , they may want to claw it back. but he is up to his. you know what in problems because everybody's going to sue the those guys are getting sued back to the stone age. but who cares?
5:29 am
it doesn't change. the big dilemma in america is not having a bad hair day. kevin o'leary never have a property. that's it , by the way, you guys like to reckon, double breasted. i gotta tell you, we dressed alike all the time. do we even planet just show up there back? we're having this debate last week, i thought about words double breasted. wow i was thinking about that in 20 years to tell you something, though i thought about wearing white pants and then i said you know what after easter southerner and i was like there's no way katelyn polantz. just telling you you guys look fabulous, and i don't give out those accolades very often. we'll see what you're wearing. next time you're here on side, kevin o'leary. thank you, as always. alright also this morning we are tracking a lawsuit. dominion wants fox news host like tucker carlson and sean hannity to go on the witness stand and their billion dollar lawsuit against the network. is it likely though we'll tell you and why a judge blasted foxes legal strategy, telling its lawyers quote this isn't a game. thanks. same

5:35 am
at fox news could get called to the stand in this trial. dominion obviously has very tough questions for them. i think you're going to see them really rehash a lot of the questions that they presented to these commentators and journalists during the depositions, and fox obviously wants to call them for different reasons. they probably want to put someone like bret bear on the stand to say, you know, weren't you calling out the election lies? um and so it'll be interesting to see how this legal strategy plays out, but shaping up to be a really high profile trial. it's interesting because dominion had previously previously asked a judge to force. fox corporation's chairman, rupert murdoch, testified during this trial. what did the judge say about that corporation does not want rupert murdoch to testify in this trial, probably for obvious reasons. but the judges not buying the excuses that have been presented to him and he said yesterday in court, i'll read to you actually what he said. he said. mr murdoch has claimed that he is traveling and that it's an inconvenience. but i also have people telling me that it's hard. he's hardly infirm. and is able to travel
5:36 am
around. i think he recently got engaged on st patrick's day, and he said he looks forward to traveling between his various residences in montana, new york and london. and of course, we just saw him at the super bowl with elon musk, so he is able to travel around the judges not buying this excuse. he's saying it looks like he can travel from new york or wherever he is, too wilmington's delaware for this trial that was pretty harsh from the judge. think we know what the jihad a judge feels about that we'll see if the trial goes forward. it does again happening in just a few weeks. thank you, oliver. so it is a runoff race that is amplifying the divide among democrats on crime. we're speaking to the candidates buying to be chicago's mayor up next paul vallas is going to join me live. sunday night. we're trying somethihing a litte differentt one whole storyry. what's startling is the e sheer number of migrants onn this track. our world's best journalists dig deeper. how did

5:41 am
, both democrats defeated mayor lori lightfoot in her re election bid in february. paul vallas is a longtime public schools chief who ran on a tough on crime message he is facing brandon johnson and cook county commissioner backed by progressives and the chicago teachers union. i spoke with johnson yesterday. this is what he had to say about his opponent. look 21 of funders for my opponent come right from the trump camp. and so i get it that there are democrats who behave as republicans. and this is not a moderate. even the chicago police department, the former chief of staff. indicated that my opponent's plan is just it's naive in its misleading so we wanted to give his opponent an opportunity to respond. paul vallas joins me now, paul, hello to you. thank you. thank you so much. listen, i do want to get you to respond to what what brandon johnson said yesterday. but first i need to say that you left chicago public schools 1995 2001 before leaving to run the
5:42 am
school system in philadelphia. new orleans. what's your reaction to the school shooting in nashville? well you know, it's the school shootings. it's um it is just so tragic. and uh , when i was running this school system in bridgeport, connecticut, sandy hook was our neighboring school district. and of course, i remember vividly when that shooting occurred because i had a teacher who had a first who had a child in their first grade classroom. as you know, 20 students were killed and i've for adults and there's been 225 shootings. school shootings in the last 10 years, and that's triple the number. of shootings the previous 10 years so clearly public safety. there has to be comprehensive public safety plans to protect schools , particularly in this age of free flowing guns, and i've always been a supporter of having police officers, uh, at the schools at the beginning of the day, and at the end of the
5:43 am
day at the very least, particularly in the high schools to deter active shooters. listen we there's a quote from the new york times the kansas city um the mayor there, said listen there have been making the assumptions that they were talking about managing school shootings, making the assumption that they are inevitable in their communities. when you were running schools that do you think that school shootings were inevitable? no not at all. in fact, we had a 24 7. how hotline and of course, that was before social media. now you can actually create social media platforms together intel, but just for the hotline alone. uh so many of these shootings are actually telegraph because people go on social media, they talk about it. it needs to be carefully monitored and you can put a system in place we can really provide students with access to you know, if they hear rumors have to hear concerns about just not only potential shooters, but young people are perhaps have a chronic drug addictions. you'll be amazed at when young people will tell you if they can do it safely and
5:44 am
securely and what they will tell each other. if you're monitoring social media if you're creating the right social media platform that that the entire school body can access, so there's their strategies in place, especially now to closely monitor the intel and then obviously be prepared to respond and to react to it. okay, so now i want to get what? the response to brandon johnson. what he said on to me yesterday and just to remind you, he said, look, 21 funders from my opponent come right from the trump campaign also, so i get it that they are democrats who behave as republicans, and it is not a moderate, even the chicago public. the police department. the former chief of staff indicated that, uh his opponent's plan is just that it's naive, and it's misleading. that's what he said. i'm paraphrasing there. but what's your? what's your response? well, you know, my response is first of all. i'm supported by 26 labor unions, and i also have the endorsement of senator dick durbin and congressman bobby rush to i know you know, well as well as countless other
5:45 am
democrats. i was also i also ran for lieutenant governor when governor pat quinn ran for reelection. of course, that's democratic governor pat quinn. also let me point out that i'm getting support in the business community from the same supporters who have who many who supported lori lightfoot. and of course, mayor daley. and of course, robin manual obviously are democrats. but you know, look, my opponent is a paid lobbyist for the chicago teachers union, and he and 80 to 90% of his funding comes directly from the chicago teachers union and his affiliates. as for my the differences between him him and i am public safety is real simple. he does. he does not want to fill the 1100 police vacancies. he doesn't believe we can fill those vacancies, which is absolutely incorrect and his only strategy for addressing the violent crime in chicago is to promote 200 officers from the street into the detective's bureau. what i have basically said is, let's fill the
5:46 am
vacancies and one of the ways you fill the vacancies. is you slow the exodus of officers. we've been losing 1000 a year because of poor leadership, terrible strategy and really the mismanagement of personnel, and we can significantly sold that exodus. i want to get to this because you know crime is a big issue. right public safety the major issue really for voters in this election, violence in the city and your city spiked in 2020 and 2021 shootings and murders have decreased since then. other crimes including theft, carjacking robberies, burglaries increased last year. give me your strategy, please. well you know, i think what you have. well, first of all, you have to return to community based policing because right now half of the high priority 911 calls do not have cars available, so that means when a call comes in, it takes hours instead of minutes. and of course, our public transit security is almost all privatized. unarmed guards half half those who write public transit are afraid to write public transit. because of
5:47 am
public safety issues, and the ridership has significantly down so clearly, we need to return to community based policing, but what we also need to do just a couple other things as we need to open our schools through the dinner, our weekends over the holidays and over the summer and bring community based and faith based programs to those schools. so our young people, hundreds of thousands can be fully engaged and occupied and the second thing we need to do is we need to have a strategy for dealing with returning citizens. those returning from incarceration because we do very little to find them support. same as your opponent yesterday. i'm up against the clock, but i also want to give some context of something that you said, and i did this with him yesterday because he talked about defunding the police. so i want to ask you about this is a television interview that you did in 2009. you said that you consider yourself more of a republican than democrat. ah what did you mean by that? and if that's so why is the teachers union not supporting you? well, you know, let me point out that the past teacher union president
5:48 am
is supporting me and the question pertained to school choice, particularly to charter schools, and the question was asked about charter schools and about and about public school choice. obviously my opponent and i have have fundamental differences. but let me point out that in chicago, i actually only opened 15 charter schools, so that was within the context. but i've been a lifelong democrat. and, of course, i then later ran as pat quinn's running mate for lieutenant governor and the democratic ticket, so i've always been a lifelong democrat . i've always voted in the democratic primary, and i'm supported by chicago's leading democrats, because chicago is heavily democratic to say you're more of a republican in chicago. i mean, that's saying a lot. thank you, paul vallas. i appreciate it. yeah, pleasure to hear from both of them ahead of that election. alright the album from amazon's new show daisy jones in the sixes, actually topping music charts. what other made for tv bands did the same. there's a slight clue. it's not
