this was going. once he got into it, no one had ever heard a political resignation quite like this one. >> at a point in every person's life, one has to look deeply into the mirror of one's soul and decide one's unique truth in the world. not as we may want to see it or hope to see it, but as it is. and so my truth is that i am a gay american, and i am blessed to live in the greatest nation with the tradition of civil liberties, the greatest tradition of civil liberties in the world and a country which provides so much to its people. i am also here today because, shamefully, i engaged in adult

consensual affair with another man which violates my bonds of matrimony. it was wrong, it was foolish, it was inexcusable. >> and therefore, new jersey governor jim mcgreevey, 2004, he wasn't just making this dramatic announcement that he was a gay american. he wasn't just coming out as gay. he was resigning as governor because he, as he admitted in his statement, had had an affair with a hunky israeli guy who maybe wasn't the single-most qualified person for the state homeland security job that he landed while jim mcgreevey was governor, but did i mention he was really hunky? this was a political bombshell when it all happened in the summer of 2004. but if you had been watching closely in new jersey politics at the time, you might very well have had a sense that something was coming before that dramatic day. because one week before governor jim mcgreevey proclaimed that he was a gay american and he had an affair and he was resigning the governorship, one week before then, one of his stop donors was arrested.

a real estate zillionaire who owned more than 25,000 apartments, owned millions of square feet of real estate, industrial real estate, tons of land that was all developable in terms of real estate development. he was a zillionaire, he was a top donor to new jersey governor jim mcgreevey. incidentally he'd also helped the governor's hunky secret israeli boyfriend get the work permits he needed to come to new jersey to get his suspiciously high powered job that, again, maybe he wasn't the best qualified guy in the world to get. he also put the governor's hunky israeli boyfriend on his own payroll at his real estate firm for a little while. and so if you were paying attention to new jersey politics at the time, it might have been a little sign of impending earthquake a week before i am a gay american when the i am a gay american governor's top donor, this connected real estate mogul

got arrested and perp walked in front of the press. ultimate, after the governor resigned the following year, the rich donor guy who got arrested a week before the governor's resignation, the rich donor guy was ultimately convicted of illegal campaign donations and tax evasion and witness tampering, and most of the story of that trial was about this very sordid story, this real estate mogul having this huge real estate empire but he got into a feud with the rest of his family about the disposition of the family company. his brother-in-law -- his sister's husband -- apparently turned the state's evidence and was cooperating with law enforcement against him. and the real estate mogul apparently retaliated against his brother-in-law by hiring a hooker to seduce the brother-in-law. the real estate mogul then secretly taped what his sister's husband did with the hooker and then he mailed the tape to his own sister.

gah! nice, right? see, it's always worth it to pay close attention to new jersey politics. always, no matter where you live. in the end, this real estate mogul, this mega zillionaire, this major donor and boyfriend hirer to the governor of new jersey, he did get convicted in federal court. and prosecutors pretty much threw the book at him. and for good measure, they made sure to publicly air all of the superhumiliating stuff about the sister and his sister's husband and sending the hooker to seduce the sister's husband and then sending the tape of them doing it to the sister -- they made sure that was all public about it. then the guy went away to actual

prison. and then the imprisoned real estate mogul's son married donald trump's daughter and, as donald trump's son-in-law, he became one of donald trump's closest advisers in his presidential campaign. and now in the trump transition into the white house. and that ends up being really interesting because the person who used to be leading the trump transition into the white house was chris christie, and it was chris christie who was the federal prosecutor who humiliated jared kushner's father, the real estate zillionaire and who locked him up and him in prison when jim mcgreevey was resigning as governor and jared kushner's dad being arrested was the first big tremor that told us that that political earthquake was coming. >> one of our cooperating witnesses did in fact engage in sexual conduct with a prostitute hired by mr. kushner, his co-conspirators, and his sexual conduct was captured the on videotape. >> christie was the prosecutor for jared kushner's dad in that case that christie went out of

his way to make it as humiliating as possible and went out of his way to make sure that he actually did solid prison time. chris christie prosecutes jared kushner's dad. i told you, new jersey politics is worth watching. because of that connection, it has been an interesting question throughout the trump campaign ever since chris christie got himself out of the presidential race and endorsed donald trump, it has been this interesting question as to whether or not donald trump's son-in-law would use his influence with his wife, ivanka trump, use his influence with his father-in-law, donald trump, to basically ice out chris christie, to get revenge on the man who literally jailed his dad. chris christie was put in charge of the trump transition effort, put in charge of staffing up the trump administration way back in may when, honestly, i think nobody thought there would be a trump administration. so working on a totally hypothetical trump presidential transition was kind of a

hilarious back water busy work job for something that would never come to fruition. once donald trump freaking won the election, did you notice how fast chris christie got demoted from what turns out was now actually a very important job. and now one of the more lurid aspects of the rollicking reality show that is the trump campaign trying to become the president donald trump administration, one of the astonishingly low rent plot points in that story is basically seeing chris christie get his in a bad way. as the son of the man who he jailed and humiliated all those years ago, as that man's son steps up and relieves governor christie of his lunch money. president-elect donald trump brought his son-in-law jared kushner and the rest of the family to the white house on thursday for their meeting with the obama white house.

that's him meeting with the white house chief of staff. the current white house chief of staff. by friday he's seen touring the grounds of the white house staff. by friday, chris christie was out as transition chief. by this morning, chris christie's handpicked guy to run the transition at the department of justice, he was out, too. chris christie's own chief of staff who christie picked to basically manage the whole transition effort, he's out, too. chris christie's former law partner who he picked to be the general counsel of the transition effort, he's out, too, the former republican congressman who chris christie tapped to head up national security for the transition, as of the today, he's out too. his ouster should be seen as a part of a, quote, stalinesque purge of people close to chris christie. stalinesque, already, week one. you guys, pay attention. snap out of your funk. this is getting really, really fascinating really fast.

you know, whether you blame stalin or not, whether you blame a stalinesque purge or not, the start of the trump administration is wobblier and weirder than i think anyone expected or imagined. the trump campaign has taxpayer funded transition offices in washington. apparently, though, they are not really using them. they're still apparently, reportedly trying to do everything or some things or just the not chris christie things from trump tower instead of working from washington. the dumping of chris christie all of a sudden as the transition chief, that has frozen the transition effort with the white house in its tracks because the white house has a formal process for this stuff. it's governed by statute. the obama administration signed is all the paperwork with chris christie. all the formal legal agreements about how the transition will be handled and the nondisclosure agreements on both side.

the trump campaign had christie sign all that stuff, then they fired him from that job on friday, but they never got anyone else to draft and read and sign any new paperwork. and that apparently is what froze the transition effort for the past four days while nothing happened because it legally couldn't. the white house says tonight they only got the start of the new signed paperwork from the trump campaign late tonight after four days where nobody could do anything because the trump campaign forgot to file the paperwork. in addition to that four-day delay, we've been reporting for the past few days that there are a bunch of specific agencies that are really wondering what's about to happen here. and they're not little agencies you've never heard of. it's like the department of defense and the ate department and the cia and the department of homeland security. we've reported in recent days that they all say they've not heard at all from the trump

transition effort. those agencies have formal transition staff and teams and programs standing by, but they cannot get a call returned from the trump side of things. now bloomberg news reports you can add the department of justice to that list. the trump folks have made no contact with any of these agencies. maybe because they're too busy purging their enemies and settling shakespearean scores amongst themselves before they, you know, get the keys to the cia. after that initial white house meeting on thursday, the trump campaign canceled the follow-up meetings they were supposed to have with the obama white house the following day. we know they probably couldn't have even had them if they wanted to because they didn't have any of the formal paperwork signed. those meetings, regardless, have not reportedly been rescheduled yet. politico.com reports that even people being considered for cabinet level jobs have not been vetted yet by the trump folks. they've not been asked to fill out questionnaires of conflicts of interest. ethics concerns, et cetera.

that said, politico.com also said that the trump transition team they haven't even announced what their ethics criteria are. in case you're trying to figure out if you have something that they consider to be a conflict of interest. the obama administration, for example, they had explicit publicly announced rules from the very beginning about how they want to keep lobbyists out of federal jobs and stuff. the trump transition team is stuffed with lobbyists but so far they've announced nothing about how they're going to handle that issue in their hiring process. would you even know if you had to disclose that if you're applying for a job? are they asking about that? that's already proving to be a problem, not a theoretical problem, but already proving to be a problem. trump got his first full presidential daily brief from

the intelligence community today. he got today for the first time the same pdb that president obama gets, today was his first one. he reportedly asked if two people could sit in on the briefing with him. one, his military and intelligence adviser michael flynn, retired general. right now michael flynn's consulting firm is paid to lobby for a foreign government. an associate of that consulting firm confirmed that mike flynn's firm, which is called the flynn intel group, they're being paid to lobby for the nation of turkey. so when the trump transition was being run by chris christie they released a contract with the american voter pledging a lifetime ban on white house officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government. now on the day of trump's first presidential daily brief, mr. trump asked michael flynn to be there with him getting that same briefing. so think about that for a second. was there anything in that briefing about turkey? anything sensitive about turkey? because the president-elect today really did let someone sit in on that briefing, that top

secret briefing whose firm is right now being paid by turkey, by that foreign country. the second person he asked to sit in on his first presidential daily brief today, the other person he asked besides flynn was his son-in-law jared. can jared get that top secret briefing, too, please? no. no. no. michael flynn is a retired general and he still has a security clearance at least if he is lobbying for a foreign government. but jared is just your son-in-law. he has no security clearance. at least not yet. not until you, sir, are president. and you can apparently just declare that he gets one. the conflicts of interest, the use of the resources of the government and the office of the presidency for personal enrichment, this stuff that's already happening, that's sets a theoretical conflict of interest in the future, but the stuff that's already happening is

breathtaking. it's one thing for mr. trump's daughter to advise everyone how to shop her look from her clothing line based on her appearance at the nominating convention for her father this summer. but now her jewelry company has sent out this missive to reporters, style alert. about how you, too, can buy ivanka's favorite $10,000 bangle from her metropolis collection if you liked it when you sawer wear it on "60 minutes" in this news interview sheid there with her father. at the government website set up by the transition effort, the meet the president-elect page used to be basically an advertisement for mr. trump's businesses. the trump organization owns some of the world's top properties including the world renowned trump tower as well as trump parc, trump palace and the list goes on and on. mr. trump owns many of the premier golf clubs around the world including the national golf club in westchester, new york. this is a dot-gov website.

he's using taxpayer resources to advertise his real estate portfolio. or he was for a few days. they took down that stuff from the meet the president-elect page after getting some criticism for it. maybe they were a little embarrassed by the criticism. i don't know. i can tell you they certainly didn't feel some hard and fast ethics restraint come down on them about using the government to advertise the family business because still today at the meet the future first lady page at their same government website, i kid you not, there it is. mrs. trump, quote, also runs her own jewelry line called melania timepieces and fashion jewelry and sells on qvc. so here we go. the presidency of the united states, the resources of the american federal government are being used to advertise the first family's qvc jewelry line. even news coverage of the president is being monetized by the first family to sell their

branded products. thanks, "60 minutes." the president-elect himself, not divesting himself of his assets and not doing what every other president has done, putting it in a blind trust. him keeping his assets within his family, which is what he's doing, that would preclude a president donald trump or even a president-elect donald trump from being allowed to have anything to do with, say, the general services administration, a part of the federal government which he now runs right which now owns the property he leases for his old post office hotel in washington, d.c. they're his landlord. any normal political matter of course he wouldn't have anything to do with that agency because he's not divested himself of that asset. it is still in his family. any normal political matter of course, him keeping his assets in his family would ethically preclude him from naming anyone to the national labor relations board.

one of the members of his family has a pending case with that board. whoever he names to the board will affect his family's business profitably immediately. there's no way he can unknow that. that's off the top of your head, that's just scratching the surface. but that's the type of stuff that's already ethically impossible about how they're trying to set up this administration. it's already an ethical brick wall for his kids to still run his business. whether or not he calls them his national security advisers and tries to get them all security clearances. it's already corrupt for his family to be using the resources of the federal government and the office of the presidency to make money by marketing their products through the resources of the federal government and the office of the presidency. it's already corrupt.

it's already an ethical brick wall. even before you get to the question of whether or not his son-in-law is being given free rein to use the power of the presidency, to use the establishment of a new administration, to use what is supposed to be the smooth transition of power from administrations to instead settle his own family scores from back in jersey. screw calling the pentagon back. they can wait. scores settled first. already. like i said, my friends, no time to dissolve into a funk. this is already the most cockamamie thing any of us have ever seen in federal politics. there's no way any of this stuff can stand. the presidency cannot bear it. it just can't. stay with us.

a developing story tonight regarding the president-elect. and when you first hear this, this is going to sound a little

bit like a beltway media thing or an inside baseball thing. but it's actually really, really important. and therefore really interesting the way this seems to be going tonight. once you are the president, once you are the president-elect, it is a matter of tradition, it is a matter of security, it is a matter of national interest that you don't go dark. you're not really allowed to be a private person anymore. i mean, people -- once you're president, president-elect, people get to know where you are at all times. and the press has to be able to cover it if something newsworthy happens to you or happens near you, if you're the president of the united states or president-elect of the united states, you may resent that you're not allowed to have a private life anymore. but you're not. it's a matter of national security interest where you are at any time. they have a protective pool, the basic movements of the president. there's always at least one person on you.

presidents have a protective pool, president-elects have a protective pool. you don't get to go anywhere unannounced. tonight donald trump appears to havee da. he appears to have made an unannounced stop in new york city. he did this without alerting his protective press pool. indeed, it maybe seems like they tried to tell the protective press pool something that was not true perhaps on purpose. and i say that because tonight at around 6:30 p.m., the press pool was given what's known as a lid. and a lid essentially means that we're done for the night. no further movement from the president-elect is expected. here is your lid. it's over. that notice was given to the press by trump's spokeswoman hope hicks tonight. then some time after that, the president-elect apparently left trump tower and went to the nearby 21 club to go have a steak. this is supposedly a photo of donald trump entering the 21

club, see the planes on the ceiling, that's apparently a decorative feature of the 21 club. i don't know. i've never been. but hallie jackson confirms that trump is in fact at that restaurant. the only reason she was able to confirm that is because she made a reservation the dine there herself so she could see if donald trump was there because the press was apparently diverted from this. hope hicks later told the pool that she was not aware of this movement from the president-elect. she also said she would never intentionally leave the press in the dark, but that is definitely what happened. it's now been a week since donald trump has been elected president. this is not the first time he's decided to go off on his own without giving notice to the pool which we all rely on to track the movements of the man who is about to become the 45th president of the united states.

last week he left the press assigned to cover him in the dark when he left the white house for his meeting with president obama. now tonight there's a steakhouse. there's no law that says the president or president-elect has to allow a press pool representative to follow their movement, but it is tradition and it's tradition for a reason and it's a tradition that has a national security basis and it's a tradition so far at least that donald trump appears intent on not following and not even telling his own spokeswoman when he's doing it . the first rule of being a viking.

is that teamwork is important. remember to do the little things. help each other out. and the second rule of being a viking. there's more than one way to win. vikings: war of clans play free now. breathe easier with your vicks vaporub. soothing cough relief that starts working instantly. this was a couple of years ago in tucson, arizona. watch this. >> meese say they stopped the man after he made an improper right turn. police say he told them he was in the country illegally so they called border patrol. a few dozen people including raul ochoa were quick to object.

>> he's a new father, and the next day that his wife gives birth, then this takes place. this stop by local police and transport over to immigration custody. we're saying enough of this. >> two women crawled under this unmarked border control truck to stop. this is familiar tactic. raul ochoa has done this himself. twice. last year. once in february and again in july. he says he has no regrets. >> the consequences mean nothing in comparison to what the violations are about our rights. if it had been any other person, this wouldn't have happened. if he was white. so because he is brown and he is latino, there was reasonable suspicion and they called border patrol. >> the man who was pulled over and the two women were all taken away by border patrol. >> it was arizona 2014. arizona had passed very controversial, very radical

papers please law basically to turn every encounter with the police into an immigration check. what counts as reasonable suspicion, is it the color of your skin? there were huge protests against that law and there were boycotts in arizona and ultimately that law was declared unconstitutional. but there was civil disobedience to block officers from taking people off the street and taking them away. it didn't necessarily work in the moment. but that was the level of resistance people were prepared to offer to that short-lived anti-immigrant law in arizona. the man who wrote that short-lived anti-immigrant law in arizona is also the man who wrote the short-lived law that made hazelton, pennsylvania, famous as the most anti-immigrant city in the country, he's the man who wrote the famous and short-lived alabama anti-immigrant law which

was even more strict than the arizona papers please law. the guy who wrote all of those superdraconian anti-immigrant laws all over the country all of which were just mauled in the courts, the guy responsible for writing all of them is now heading up immigration issues for the donald trump transition either in washington. his name is kris kobach. you're saying anything you hear about donald trump doesn't really mean it when he says he wants to deport millions immediately, actually he means it. >> right now we have untapped resources of more than 5,000 deportation officers who are figuratively being chained to their desks by the obama administration which will not let them do their job and deport people. so when we release those

untapped resources you're going to see enforcement go up immediately. >> you will see enforcement, you will see deportations immediately. and an increase in deportations, that is within the president's per view alone, if trump does want to do that as his immigration transition chief says he does, he would not need congress in order to do that. and what he does need congress for, turns the out americans seem pretty psyched to give it to him. >> we actually just went back into session yesterday and i put together the team actually with the speaker and others with our staff working on legislation now so when we're sworn in, not waiting until the president is sworn in, but at the very first week of january, we are able to move the legislation needed to start building the wall. >> they want the build the wall legislation cooked and passed and ready for trump's signature before he even gets to the oval office so he can sign it on day one. that's the number two republican in congress saying they'll have that ready for him. this is a particularly scary time for immigrants in general in this country. particularly, i would say, for the 700 plus thousand young people, people who were brought

to this country as kids, who accepted president obama's offer in 2012 to step out of the shadows, these 700,000 plus young people who came out and told the federal government that they're here without documentation. they registered, they made themselves known. they were told when they did that that they're registering for this deferred action policy of the obama administration. they were told when they signed up and registered with the federal government that their registering to do that would never be used to deport them. but that was not a legally binding assurance. now barack obama is set to not be president anymore. and now the determination and the haste and the manifest anti-immigrant zeal from the trump administration, from the people he is putting in place to run his policies and put personnel in place in the new administration and the zeal and enthusiasm you see for this stuff in republicans in congress it raises the question of not just what president trump is going to do to immigrants in this country, particularly the hundreds of thousands of kids who came out of the shadows and are now within arm's reach should trump choose to go after

them, it raises the question of what people around this country will do to defend those folks if trump comes after them like he says he will. we've got a very, very interesting part of that answer, next. per roll more "doing chores for dad" per roll more "earning something you love" per roll bounty is more absorbent, so the roll can last 50% longer than the leading ordinary brand. so you get more "life" per roll. bounty, the quicker picker upper

this week mayors in the country say they will resist the

incoming trump administration on the issue of deporting immigrants. the list is evolving. not every city says they plan to resist in the same way or at the same level. part of the rick for these cities is that trump has threatened explicitly that he'll cut off federal funs to any city that tries to protect its immigrants, any city that tries to resist a federal roundup of immigrants. the mayor of minneapolis says that threat doesn't change her mind about supporting her city and her city's immigrants and not helping in any federal roundup. she says in his quest to scapegoat immigrants donald trump has threatened the city's funding. i will continue to stand by and fight for immigrants in minneapolis regardless of trump's threats. saying that she and her city will not budge. they know they're getting in a confrontation here but they're

up for it. joining me is betsy hodges, a sanctuary city in the terminology we use and people don't understand. thank you for being here tonight. >> oh, thank you, rachel. i appreciate being here. >> what is a sanctuary city and what is the policy of your city that you're anticipating this confrontation with incoming administration about? >> well, i mean, donald trump is playing scapegoat politics at the cost of public safety. in minneapolis we've had an ordinance on the books since 2003 that says our police officers are not in the business of enforcing federal -- doing the job of federal law enforcement and that makes our city safer if victims of crime and witnesses of crime know they can call the police, report that crime, talk to police and not have to worry about gein

their immigration status checked. it's public safety. >> so do you have the support of law enforcement in your city when you say that you want to continue that policy if even at the federal level they try to punish you for that? >> i do. that ordinance has been on the book for a long time. i will say the organization of major city chief, they also have concerns about this in terms of law enforcement, the impact that it has on the expectation for officers of training. and the -- you know, the trump policy would place a lot of the burden on local law enforcement who are really doing their best to protect and serve to make sure that our cities stay safe. and the best way to do that is to make sure that people feel safe calling the police. >> if you stand by this policy and if the trump administration carries through on its threat that they will somehow find a

way to deny you all federal funs as retribution for this, do you have any sense of exactly how much that would cost the city of minneapolis? would that be a devastating financial blow? >> clearly it would be significant. in the millions or tens of millions of dollars. but the impact on public safety, the impact on the foundation of our democracy and the safety of people to live in the united states of america is at stake. so yep, it's a question of millions of dollars, but there are bigger things at stake. that's a problem to solve in our budget, but if we sacrifice those principles and our public safety for the sake of those dollars, we've got a lot bigger problems. >> minneapolis mayor betsy hodges. i appreciate your time tonight. stay in touch with us, if you will, as this evolves. we're all waiting to see how much the rhetoric is becoming reality. but you may know a lot about developments before we do. i appreciate if you stay in touch with us.

the top republican in the united states senate is mitch mcconnell.

watch how mitch mcconnell responded today as he was asked about the first big profile hire from the incoming president. watch how mitch mcconnell basically plays the silence here like it is a glorious resonant electric guitar. >> steve bannon is taking a lot of flak from the left and senator reid is going to go to the floor today and apparently really blasted him for his connections in the past. i wanted to know are you comfortable with him having such a high level position in the trump administration. >> it's great to see you guys today. >> so no defense of bannon then? >> thank you. >> all right, everybody. whoop. the man's gone silent. his head's about to disappear

inside his suit. please get out. we're getting a sense now of how democrats are going to deal with the behavior of president-elect donald trump. republicans right now are still figuring it out that some part of me thinks this might actually be fun. stay with us.

white people, can we talk? what just happened? white people did it. not all white people, but white people did it. in last week's presidential election hillary clinton won 88% of african-american voter, 65% of latino voters, she won 65% of asian american voters. and frankly, donald trump's campaign knew they were likely to lose minorities by huge margins. the trump campaign also knew that in order to still have a chance at winning the election, in order to combat their huge losses with minorities, they would have to really drive up, really spike the white folk. they would have to inspire the kind of white vote that you just don't even usually get. and so the end of the campaign in particular, they went right

at trying to spike a particular kind of white vote. they went right at racial anxiety among white voters and did it in pretty explicit terms. >> and we will keep radical islamic terrorists the hell out of our country. and as i said, and as you know, we're not playing games, yes, we will build the wall. her plan will import generations of terrorism, extremism and radicalism into your schools and throughout your communities. we're reading about it all the time in michigan with large

numbers of poorly vetted refugees coming into your state, without your knowledge, without your support and without your approval. here in minnesota, you've seen firsthand the problems caused with faulty refugee vetting, with large numbers of somali refugees coming into your state, without your knowledge, without your support or approval and with some of them then joining isis and spreading their extremist views all over our country and all over the world. honestly, it's hard to believe. it's hard to believe. and everybody is reading about the disaster taking place in minnesota. you don't even have the right to talk about it. you don't even know who is coming in. you have no idea. you'll find out, you'll find out. >> that was the sunday before the election. we spoke with minneapolis mayor just a moment ago about how she's planning in her city to

resist the trump's immigration policies, but trump really did make that personal in minneapolis. he went the week before the election to try to get white minnesotans afraid of non-white people in their midst, tried to get them afraid of the somali communities within that state. donald trump did not win minnesota and in minneapolis, the same city where he was fear mongering about the threat of somali refugees the people will decided to elect the first somali american legislator. she's a muslim american and she's now the minnesota state house representative from her district in minneapolis. joining us is ilhan omar who became the first democratically elected somali stateswoman. because of what your state was subjected to. do you think that last-minute visit by donald trump had an effect on your election? >> i did. i think the results of this election is very disheartening, but i'm reminded that i won and

that creates a particular kind of hope and aspiration for people. and that in the face of despair and hate, we must continue to fight. we must continue to strive for, for the nation that we know we can be, for the state we know we can be. >> what i know of your district, correct me if i'm wrong, but the person you're replacing in the legislature represented your district for 44 years. >> how has your district responded? obviously it was going to be a big change because the person before you was there for so long. has there been unexpected things about the way people have reacted to your election? >> so what we are enjoying is a celebration of what unity and diversity means. granted that we have a huge population of east africans. there has been some hate that you have experienced because of what's happening with the national rhetoric of deviciveness. we believe that we are strong and that forward together we will come out of this as a stronger community.
