stretch, vice president kamala harris teaming up with president biden and xi courts, a crucial voting bloc in two in swing states plus the right to metal trump. now claiming he had quote, every right to interfere in the last election and grounded the u.s. season the presidential plane of another foreign leader that plane now in florida why? and could it lead to an escalation between the two countries? let's go outfront good evening. i'm brianna keilar in for erin burnett outfront tonight. the home stretch, vice president kamala harris on the road as the 2024 presidential campaign enters the final push and just a short time ago, harris and joe biden traveled to the president's home state to rally the democrats project based we know the true measure of the strength of a leader is based on who you lift up this
4:02 pm
woman knows what she's doing i promise you if your elect kamala harris as president will be the best as you will have ever made the harris campaign knows how important pennsylvania will be in the november election of all the swing states. it has the most electoral votes, 19 and biden bested trump there by less than 2% of the vote before arriving in the keystone state, harris was in detroit, michigan speaking to another group of union workers dressing that while she may have momentum, this race is still too close to call last not paid too much attention to the polls. >> let's like labor always
4:03 pm
does you're running like we are the underdogs in this race because we know as of tonight, there are only 64 days in this race significantly less in some states we're early voting begins in just two weeks. and the harris campaign has not taking anything for granted. president biden is about hold a string of events across a number of key states where he narrowly beat trump in 2020. as for the former president, his next major rally is not until saturday. kayla tausche, she is traveling with vice president harris. she's outfront live in pittsburgh. kayla, you just learned some new details about what went into this first joint campaign event. what are you hearing? >> well, brianna, that teams of vice president harris and president biden have long worked hand in glove for events like these, but i'm told that they worked incredibly close in touch. well, they tried to craft remarks that were both coordinated and complimentary. and while vice president harris has been embracing a message of
4:04 pm
moving forward and not going back much of that rhetoric was absent from today's remarks as the two leaders really revisited their embrace of organized labor over the last four years. and in particular joe biden's embrace of organized as labor over his decades long political career with biden at times getting wistful about having this support of union leadership and members over the course of his long career they acknowledged that this is not a done deal going forward and there's still quite a bit of work to do with governor josh shapiro earlier at this event saying that people hear attending the event needed to talk to their colleagues. there cohorts, and they're unions to try to get them to make sure that they vote for vice president harris it's essentially acknowledging that many rank-and-file members are undecided or have expressed a desire to vote for former president donald trump. but even so, president biden is expected acting this to be first of many of these types of events later, this week, he's going to be in michigan and
4:05 pm
wisconsin in those so-called blue wall states, talking up the investments that his administration has made in those states, even though his approval rating remains in a low 40s it is still he's still very popular among those white, older working class voters. and that's where he and the harris campaign's still feel that he can lend some support as for vice president harris, we've now learned from three sources that she's expecting affected to deliver a speech in new hampshire on wednesday, unveiling the next tranche of her economic proposals, which cnn has previously reported with center on innovation entrepreneurship, and trying to foster the creation of more small businesses. brianna all right. >> kayla tausche, live for us from pittsburgh. thank you for that report outfront. now, michael hardaway's former longtime aide to president obama and former communications director to congressman hakeem jeffries, also with us, we have new york times podcast host lulu garcia navarro and republican strategist shermichael singleton lulu to you first today, marking the first joint campaign event with
4:06 pm
harris and biden since he dropped out of the race and endorsed her. and it's in pennsylvania. how crucial is joe biden to harris is success there? >> i mean, i think it helps theirs this conversation that keeps happening, that somehow biden is a drag on her. she is his vice president she can't run away from that, so she might as well embrace it, where it matters and it matters in a place like pennsylvania and it matters with older white voters who have been traditional supporters of joe biden in pennsylvania. you know, he loves to call themselves scranton joe. this is exactly where he should be right now, lending a hand and what you saw there was you know, typical joe biden really speaking to what he has provided to unions talking about his real connection with union workers and, you know, she was the second act to that, but i think it was a useful performance by both of them in michael president biden today vowing
4:07 pm
that this is just the start of his campaigning for vice president harris. let's listen lot of progress. and kamala going to build on that progress and she's going to build on i'll be on the sidelines, but i'll do everything i can to help so now he will head to michigan. he'll go to wisconsin this week as well. does his assistance in these blue wall states outweigh any risks or limitations on her ability to sell a forward-looking message and plotter on course it does because people love joe biden on a personal level he's incredibly good at connecting with people, especially working class people of all races, and helping them understand that he understands what they're dealing with. and if you look at his record, it very much is one that is pro-union and pro working class specifically with the butch lewis act, which saved the pensions of over 100 million americans. i'm sorry over 1 million americans, 52,000. and those in pennsylvania. and so it matters
4:08 pm
that he's out there and it matters that he's fighting on her behalf because he does this incredibly good job of connecting with people in a real way. >> shermichael, what do you think i mean, look, i don't know if it's necessarily a good thing. >> i mean, the president wasn't performing very well with the very constituents that he's expected to assist. the vice president with you talking about unions. i understand once a stalwart of the democratic party are now, we're seeing a lot of working class people migrate over to the republican party. that is, it's an interesting reshuffling if you will of voters where they once were to where there appear to be going today. but i think pennsylvania brianna is gonna be an incredibly important date for trump and harris. i would argue is a must-win state. i think of harris can win it. she ultimately gets to 70, i think if trump wins it he ultimately gets to 270. it's it's the reason why you're seeing both candidates spend a lot of time there. they haven't surrogates there look at the massive amount of money and media buys their spending and also
4:09 pm
brianna, look at where they're putting their boots on the ground and pennsylvania what counties who are they trying to target? who are they trying to penetrate? one, do you want to overly excite your base? but for that small percent of people who may still be on offense there, you want to make that compelling argument? he met now until november of why you are better than your opponent. and so i expect to see a whole lot more come the next couple of weeks in pennsylvania by both camps trump, shermichael, i wonder though we see on the schedule president trump, he's holding a rally saturday in wisconsin. he's not out there on labor day, even as he's trying to court union workers. is that a mistake so from my understanding, the former president is getting ready for the upcoming debate after the debate, his campaign trail is supposed to kick back up in terms of the number of places he's expected to visit along with j.d. >> vance, you're also going to see more of j.d. vance? and it's crisscrossing the country as well, hitting some of those crucial battleground states. and i think this is important, brianna oftentimes we hear from
4:10 pm
the trump campaign. he doesn't prepare, he doesn't prepare. well, i think the former president is taking this debate very serious with vice president harris. this is not going to be joe bide. she's going to be able to articulate her that's the doing the issues we may differ, but this is going to be a much more competitive race in a competitive debate. he needs to spend that time being able to surgically argue why he's going to be the better alternative on the most consequential issues for the american people invest, take this very seriously, this upcoming debate, lulu. yeah, one of the things that i thought was really interesting just watching her is that she was much more in this particular speech that she just gave a forceful than i've seen her before. the joy seems to be kind of being ratcheted down and the fight seems to be ratcheting up because this really is now the crucial moment where are you are actually battling vote by vote as for michael says, for these very tight margins in these
4:11 pm
very swingy, swing districts. and so just the tone there struck me as different than the one that i've seen from her before. >> let's listen to a little bit of that. here's more of harris at her rally like to move forward down. trump is trying to pull us backward america has tried those failed policies before and we are not going back so michael i wonder about what you saw today, but also we should note the latest abc poll found no real bounce for harris after the dnc. >> do you think that's a sign that enthusiasm and momentum may have maxed out on energizing democrats, on energizing the base. and now she's really got that hard sell for swing voters know, i feel the good news for her as she's still doing incredibly well and all the swing states that matter in the midwest, she's neck and neck with trump
4:12 pm
in pennsylvania. >> she's playing well in arizona and in georgia and even north carolina. and so overall, she is doing incredibly well, but she has to be out there in these battleground states every there's single week along with the president and making her case specifically in pennsylvania because that for her is a must-win state. and i think she wins because she has a row record in terms of what this administration has done for working people in pennsylvania and across the country. but she has a cell that record lulu, i want to listen to a tim walz moment on the trail. labor day, of course, it's the home stretch for the baseball season. we're on the custody cosper the nfl season two, and he gave a nod to both sports today when he was in wisconsin, let's listen we, respect differences. that's your opinion. look, we're setting here together brewers in twins, fans, vikings impact look we respect it but on things like health care and
4:13 pm
what books i read and democracy, we all oh, live by that very simple golden rule. mind your own damn business i'm curious, lulu, how you think walz compares as a kind of jovial midwestern messenger straightforward when stacked up against j.d. >> vance, who do you think is more relatable? >> i mean, i think the polling shows that waltz is much more likable and relatable he has the dad vibes, right? and he gets the sports metaphors. you trust about whenever he can and this is the currency, the political currency that he brings to the ticket. i mean j.d vance has been out there. he has been i think a very loyal attack dog, for trump? i don't know how effective he's been because what we've seen is the more that he engages, the less people seem to like him. and so again it is troubling for the trump campaign that they do not have a waltz on their side. people
4:14 pm
or not connecting with j.d. vance in the same way that they do with waltz, shermichael. >> what do you think we look i think j.d. >> vance has showcased a real discipline as it pertains to sticking with the economy and immigration and making that case from the interviews i've seen, i certainly understand why democrats will say some of the comments that he's made it in the past that have resurfaced are colorful. the say least, i don't think there are many republicans who are too happy about it. but i want to just quickly tap on the question you asked michael about the momentum with vice president harris. if you remember a couple of weeks ago, the top pollster for the trump campaign released an internal memo that stated expect to see the vice president continue to have this incredible rise for maybe the next 28, 30 days, at least until labor day and sure enough, here we are right at labor day. we're sort of seeing the numbers flattened out, which is what i think a lot of democrats and even republican strategist have argued this thing is going to get incredibly close as we get
4:15 pm
closer to early voting as we get closer to november. so again, brown, i know a lot of people ask for who in the heck is left out there to decide this election? you do have those low propensity voters who may be registered, but they don't always engage. you're going to see both camps trying to target those voters with a message of something to try to get them the turnout. and i think that's the point of this race. >> and new voters new voters, there or new voters registering who have been, who have come in. and i think that is also going to be one of the crucial elements here. >> lulu, michael shermichael. thank you so much to all of you really appreciate it and outfront next, i'm going to speak to pittsburgh's mare. he was with vice president harris and president biden tonight what was his message to harris? as they're entering the final stretch here plus israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, defiant tonight signaling he won't cave on a key issue it could lead to a deal with hamas to free the hostages still in gaza, the father of an american hostage still being held is outfront exclusive, never

4:22 pm
the labor day parade. though they didn't march in a parade for them to have an event to talk about, you know, being on stage together to talk about the agenda, to talk about why it's important for us to get the vote out for vice president harris it just shows you it was so electrifying and just so john important, this races and it also demonstrates how important the city is. and whenever we can highlight our city in a way that continues to demonstrate that we are the backbone of the union, that were union city. we've been a union and only built a common way, but help build this nascent them coming together, standing on stage together that picture of unity demonstrates what this race is all about since biden dropped out of the race, pennsylvania voters have been sharing their opinions of harris with cnn. >> these are democrats. they're independents, they're also disaffected republicans. and i want to play what some of them have said here it is. >> she has been villainized really well. she hasn't done enough publicly to work against
4:23 pm
some of those negative narratives are still don't feel like she's ready. i don't want to persay vote for someone that is a backup if i'm not over my grave concerns about harris do a ride in all right. mayor, i think you could look at that and say that is some constructive criticism that the harris campaign is listening to their write there, right there. what is the key to making people who would have voted for biden i didn't voters in transforming them into harris voters, in your opinion know the one thing i've always tell people is that it is great that when you're a student, you can sit back and learn just how to be a leader. and i think through her public service to our public life, the one thing that vice president harris has done is demonstrating two over and over and over her ability to lead. and i think that's
4:24 pm
what people got to focus on and be able to be vice president see what's going on. you're not coming in brand new. your communist someone has been the vice president that understands from a national, international perspective exactly was going on in the world. there could be not no one right now more prepared to be president then vice president harris. and that's why i think you see the electricity the polls don't last as she got in this race we see is now taking a lead in many polls, but that the voters are excited about it, or today it was electric. you should have been in the room. you could feel the energy, the momentum that's when you really get a good sense of what a leader is. going to demonstrate to the rest of the city in the rest of the united states that she's prepared to lead. and i'm behind are 100% mayor. >> thank you so much. it was obviously a big day in your city and we appreciate your time tonight. >> absolutely thank you for having me have a great evening. >> yeah. thank you. you too. outfront. next, president biden, taking on benjamin netanyahu. and accusing these really prime minister of not

see e how mumuch you canan saven the edge for premieres sunday, september 22, did nine on cnn, breaking news protesters gathering and tonight outside the residence of israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, the large group lighting fires, chanting quote, you are guilty. this after the bodies of six hostages were recovered from gaza and does a source warrant cnn that netanyahu may have quote torpedoed everything with his address to the nation this
4:30 pm
evening, i spoke earlier today with a cousin of carmel, got one of the hostages found dead, who was expected to be released in the first phase of a potential ceasefire agreement. and he he had this emotional message for netanyahu this is exactly the opposite of what we want. >> exactly the opposite of what comer would've wished for and exactly the opposite of what the hostages that are still held in captivity deserve. he is going to use the murder of mine my cousin, in order to keep the war going. and this is exactly i'm, i'm, i'm, i'm i'm curious nic robertson is outfront tonight in the face of growing demands to get all the hostages home, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu doubling down on his defiance, were asked to make concessions what message does this send? hamas it says killed more
4:31 pm
hostages, murdered more hostages. you'll got more concessions explaining he won't remove israeli troops from the gaza egypt border. compromise. hamas demands his only concession, rare contrition for the six hostage families. >> a multi-line which i told the families and i repeat, it goes on and say this evening, i'm asking for your forgiveness that we didn't manage to bring them back alive. >> pressure for him to back down rocketed sunday, hundreds of thousands of israelis took to the streets demanding he made the deal save the other hostages. that energy and anger still alive on monday. although the tempo and numbers down demands not changing. because i feel the government has neglected the hostages they don't care about the hostages these government cease to exist. one first and foremost
4:32 pm
to sign it mustered just the whole nation watching what's at stake hersh goldberg-polin's poignant funeral testament to that i think your forgiveness. we tried so very hard some deeply in desperate i'm sorry not the cathartic homecoming his family believed to be in reach. we became absolutely certain that you were coming home to us alive but it was not to be an american, but a son of israel, his family's pain for nations too. goodbyes, the country craves. >> and here okay, so before i go gonell and your journey i hope it's as good as the trips your dreamed about because
4:33 pm
finally, my sweet boy, finally, finally, finally i will love you and i will miss him. every single day. for the rest of my life and we've learned this evening, this may not actually be the end of it. >> hamas is now threatening if israeli troops come to rescue hostages as they've tried and succeeded they'll shoot the hostages. this isn't over yet. brianna. certainly isn't. >> nic robertson in tel aviv. thank you outfront now jonathan dekel-chen, father of israeli american hostage, sagui dekel-chen, sagi is a husband and father to three young daughters, including a baby girl who was born after sagui was taken by hamas. >> jonathan. thank you so much for being with us. can you tell us about your reaction to this news? of these hostages found dead is you you've been
4:34 pm
waiting now months to hear anything about your own sons location or condition well, my reaction i like all israelis was absolutely for sympathy for the families or most of whom i've actually come to know over these currently 11 months and double horror because we know for sure that none of these six beautiful young people needed to die had israel move forward in good faith before and hamas been pressured enough. >> this deal could have been signed a month-and-a-half, two months ago. and in all likelihood, most if not all of these young people who were brutally murdered by hamas, would be alive today tonight, you heard netanyahu. >> he said that he asked forgiveness from the families of the hostages, but then he doubled down on why he will not agree to a hamas demand that is holding up a hostage deal which is securing that philadelphi
4:35 pm
corridor along the the southern side, the egyptian gaza border. president biden has told reporters he doesn't think netanyahu is doing enough. what do you think well, i i think i know that all of his senior military and intelligence officials have said out loud, publicly repeatedly in recent weeks and months that there is no reason no strategic or tactical reason including the philadelphi corridor for israel to continue due to delay signing this or moving forward quickly towards signing of this agreement. >> for a ceasefire and hostage release with hamas so the prime minister has his justifications that we heard again tonight are based on issues that have nothing to do with our national security but it would seem have far more to do with his own
4:36 pm
political interests and not rocking the boat within his own far-right coalition full of messianic nationalists that care nothing for our hostages beyond lip service. >> and so there's no doubt in their hundreds of thousands of israelis out in the street. >> i think someone made the computation that it would be tantamount up to 35 million americans protesting at one time. i mean, think about that. >> the israeli street has spoken about this. >> it is time for our government to stop delaying and time for the international community to do everything it must have pressure hamas to get to yes i think that's the hope of so many of these families during her, you eulogy, the mother of american israeli hostage hersh goldberg-polin, whose body was one of those recovered this week and she said that she hoped his killing would be a quote, turning point. >> you are in israel where we've been watching these protests that you mentioned do you have hope that this is

going to be enough? i mean, you put it into perspective for just how big this would be population-wise. but do you think this is actually something that gets through to netanyahu? >> it's very hard to know look, we can do what we can do here in israel it's see me, it seems to be clear that the biden administration will in the same way that netanyahu is doubling down on this fantastical narrative that he has about security in philadelphia which by the way, he didn't even mentioned for the first eight months of this for we will need help. need help in getting the netanyahu government to yes i want to believe that a combination of this massive pressure within israel and israel's friends, israel's friends, making it clear the israeli government that there are no more excuses for these essentially political delays. and can you i don't know if he has the moral
4:38 pm
backbone to stand up to his radical right messianic sell it coalition partners. >> but he must find it israel as lost. otherwise, this is really about the heart and soul of our own country, the lives of the hostages, and stopping the madness in gaza jonathan, you met with white house officials last night many of the families who have been in regular touch with them, how much faith do you have in the biden administration right now to actually influence netanyahu? >> well, as little faith, i think that, you know, most israelis and certainly myself included avid my own government. i have absolute faith in the biden administration, just the proven time and again, since october that they understand the gravity and the urgency of the situation right here. right now that every day that passes more and more hostages who have
4:39 pm
survived somehow for the last ten or 11 months living hell in hamas captivity are at risk. and so i believe that the biden administration will put maximum pressure on both israel and hamas moss through the intermediaries. of course, to get both parties to yes. but at the end of the day, there are two men that have to sign on a document one is gift as sinwar, a mass murder who's somewhere underground. one would think in gaza and the other is benjamin if in you who seems to be more interested in the preservation of his own political power then the cohesion and the best interests of our country jonathan dekel-chen. thank you for being with us. we are thinking of your family and your son, and we appreciate your time tonight thank you for having outfront next, a bold move by the u.s.

4:45 pm
can you tell us about this seizure? >> this jet was in the dominican republic for what effectively was routine maintenance according to local officials there when the u.s. had the opportunity to seize it and pounced on that opportunity. the fbi flying the plane from the dominican republic to florida and there you can see it on the ground in fort lauderdale. it's not quite the seven for seven jumbo jet yet the u.s. uses as air force one, but it is effectively venezuela's air force one used by president nicholas maduro to fly around for his own meetings. attorney general merrick garland, saying that it was purchased in violation of u.s. sanctions by a shell company for some 13 million. it was illegally flown out of the united and it states back in august of 2023, and then it was used by maduro. and according to merrick garland in a statement after the seizure also by his quote cronies then flown around. it was seen not only on flight-tracking sites, but i believe also seen in pictures there. and it was seized because it was purchased in violation of those sanctions
4:46 pm
obviously, the u.s. and venezuela have a frosty, if not outright, a hostile relationship between the two of them. and that has only gotten worse since the presidential election. of july 1, that the u.s. did not recognize as free, fair, and legitimate because of that election, the u.s. reimposed sanctions on venezuela's oil and gas industry he's the u.s. and a number of other countries not recognizing those as free and fair elections. so where does this go from here? well now the u.s. has to pursue forfeiture, which means maduro's regime has a chance to essentially appeal this and put in their argument as to why the jet should be returned to them, the u.s. has also made clear that they will try to collect whatever intelligence since they can from venezuela's air force one, brianna very interesting story, oren liebermann. thank you for that and also tonight, nuclear threat, russia, making it easier for vladimir putin to use nuclear weapons due to quote, western actions related to the war in ukraine, a top russian official telling that

to state media, this is your cranes president zelenskyy acknowledges a quote, most difficult situation in the eastern part of the country where russian troops continue seizing territory amid ukraine's ongoing incursion into russia, fred pleitgen is outfront monday morning right before dawn a massive barrage of russian missiles targeting ukraine's capital air defenses able to shoot down most of the incoming rockets but some clearly impacting inside the city russia attacking ukraine's largest cities just as millions of children were set to go back to school for the first day of the new term tonight, the explosions with very scary. >> i quickly and to the bathroom, i could even feel the breeze from the impact of the explosion ukraine continuing its own incursion into russian territory in an effort to force
4:48 pm
vladimir putin's army to move units away from other frontlines. >> and now for the first time, cnn has obtained exclusive video showing how the ukrainians first penetrated russia's border elite mine-clearing teams secretly infiltrated and blew up minefields in the heavily fortified border area, clearing a path for the troops to get through but ukraine remains both outmanned and outgunned in most areas increasingly relying on drones to level the battlefield we visited the ffr dm drone firm as they tested their new do copter attack drone already carrying mock bombs it's just shut, dropping them accurately from heights around 250 feet aboveground realizing the enemy's advantage in terms of numbers of people, we cannot risk people. he says,
4:49 pm
so we are working harder to have even better drones the drones, a major factor on the battlefields where ukrainian forces are currently trying to stop sustained russian advances in the east of the country russian president vladimir putin saying, ukraine's incursion into western russia will not stop his armies from pushing forward elsewhere. >> i should bill not to that calculation was to stop our offensive actions in key parts of the donbass done by the result is known? >> yes. of course, i'll people are going through a tough time, especially fleeing the kursk regions but the drone team say they are not done yet working on ever more sophisticated unmanned aircraft to hit the russian invasion force fred pleitgen is joining us now from kyiv and fred putin just said, in your report that his offensive in the east is not slowing down. >> what are the ukrainian say they know brianna, the ukrainians have acknowledged that one of the reasons why they sent their forces on that
4:50 pm
incursion into russian territory was to try and make the russians redeployed wait, their troops from some of the front lines where they're putting the ukrainians under pressure in volodymyr zelenskyy, the president of this country, he came out today and said, yes, the pokrovsk front is one of those places does where they want to try to get the russians to redeploy forces away from there and possibly towards the kursk region of zelenskyy said today that he believes that that is something that's still could happen. >> but at the same time, he also acknowledged that right now for the ukrainians, the most difficult front lines are in toretsk, which is the area around bakhmut. and of course piecrust as well. brianna right? >> fred pleitgen. thank you so much for that report outfront next, former president trump now suggesting he had every right to meddle in the 2020 election whoever heard you get indicted for interfering with the presidential election, where you have every right to do it five good thingsgs lisist

4:56 pm
election where you have every right to do it you get indicted and you poll numbers go up outfront. now, sergeant aquilino gonell, one of the capitol police officers who defended the u.s. capitol and was injured on january 6. he is also the author of the book, american shield officer. thank you for being with us tonight. i do want to start with those comments that you just heard from trump. what do you think about what he said that he has every right to interfere, had every right to interfere in the election i saw confession that's what it is. i mean, he thinks he's entitled to do what he did, overthrow the will of the people and that's very unfortunate. i hope jack smith is listening there's a critical hearing speaking of just days from now in trump's january 6 case in the federal case, and the indictment has been reworked by smith to reflect some of the limitations of that supreme court immunity decision. >> do you think that trump will
4:57 pm
ultimately be held accountable for election interference that is my hope if it wasn't because of what he did on joining six with his actions or inaction when the mall was attacking the capitol police and the capitol on his behalf. >> i wouldn't have lost my career and i hope that he after going through the judicial process, if found guilty, then he should be held what kind of the right to a speedy trial is a right of the defendant? it's obviously not one that happens in the interest of the public, for instance. so this is a right that favors trump. but the fact that you likely will not see that move forward and have an answer for his actions, leading up to an on january 6, what does that mean to you
4:58 pm
before the election? i mean i mean i still hopeful that will happen i me the disappointing thing has been taking almost four years, so three years and a half for this indictment to come through. i think that if it wasn't because of the expectation that he will be daddy. i don't think he'll be running for presen and that's the only reason why he, he became a candidate to stay out of jail in my opinion, i think that he should have been expedited a long time ago to the system do you think people have forgotten about what happened on january 6 and the lead up to it. do you think is factoring into their decision is they consider how they're going to vote i hope not. >> i looked again, if this attack on the capitol was would have been done by any other group. i'm sure the republican
4:59 pm
220 electoral officials from the republican side that would have been calling for a speedy trial for accountability, for honoring the officers who defended the capitol on january 6, instead of not putting not even the plaque on the tunnel of the capitol, a law that two years ago, it was passed. and yet mike johnson still refused to even entertain the idea the u.s. putting those names on the wall. so the future president, before they get sworn in they get to see where officers like myself, race, or to defend the capital i want to ask you about a fundraiser for january 6 rioters. it was scheduled to be held at trump's bedminster golf club. it's postponed till after the election. it was billed as the j six awards gala trump was invited to speak last we heard he was not, but this is his golf club hosting these folks. how do you feel about that? and if he does ultimately attend after the election and what does it say to you he
5:00 pm
says, i mean, it's clearly that he had hit him and his allies had chosen to side with the insurrectionists instead of the officers like myself again, we risked our lives are many other officers like myself had to leave the job. >> the department because of the injuries and the mental health mental health trauma that we sustain if you look at it, they had condone the attack rather than denouncing in so i think it's very unfortunate and they should they should tsai where the police officer now with me, i do have a gofund me as well. and those are the things that instead of supporting the police officer, he's now supporting his supporting the writers themselves. >> sergeant gonell, we appreciate your time. thank you so much. and an exclusive interview to tell you about before we go an outfront tomorrow, erin sitting down with stormy daniels, do not miss that tomorrow night at seven thank you so
