story. >> they told us this afternoon that it's an ongoing investigation. they said they have to wait till she wakes up. >> will have more on thursday's edition of chasing news. emily's family has started a gofundme page. we'll put that on facebook. this story is far from over. we want to know what you think. tweet me or tweet the show at chasing news to give us your opinion. >> i've seen a lot of hatred on both sides let's put it in perspective. >> for people are lucky to be a alive. watch the-cam video in hudson, wisconsin. an officer had a carpal and the left lane behind a stalled vehicle when the four truck driving miles per hour and his/her squad car. very lucky to be alive. wisconsin state patrol said the

should have blocked but i really just ignored them. i asked some trump supporters their reaction and here's what they said. >> that's one of the reasons i got out of social media. too much mining into much politics. >> starting about 1130 last night and just in the consternation they literally could not believe it. but the polls were completely wrong and social media is now doing people are venting. a lot of people voted for trump and then decided i'm not going to tell you on voting because i don't want to engage. >> i don't think people were try not to engage in facebook by not commenting before voting, i think they're trying to save face. what if he didn't. let me not talk about what i think i want before it happens. afterwards all supported. >> a lot of the our baby

boomers. i know know my mom and dad are [inaudible] social media. >> when i saw my feed this morning the fact that trump had won the election and was expecting it and working together, the amount of hatred that supported hillary writing on facebook about this election, i didn't see one thing about trump winning. i only saw everything about how disappointed the hillary people were. you know what, trump won and now now we need to let it go and move forward. >> i do agree that we need to move forward and there's acceptance that need to move forward. california was up in flames. >> but also hillary has now given her speech. she called for people to come together and i think that's that's what people are waiting to happen. >> i think trump gave a great speech last night and i think he echoed a lot of the sentiment

and i think that was the pivot in the lot a democrat friends have said he's the president, let's see if he makes good on what he talked about doing. >> like many little brothers, he loves his older brother margie, they go go for walks together, again, like brothers they have a bit of sibling rivalry.

muppet, and underpants. when i arrived at the office she gave in key a quick western checkup, and over look at what was happening and assess the overall health. >> overall looking healthy but i think today what we should do is focus on some immediate some immunization support. with the weather change and hopefully get him feeling really good. >> she sat him on couch and made them comfortable. >> got it, no jumping. so we got started. >> the first is a common point, sometimes it can be stressful to have a needle poke. it's going well and that she gets to the lower back.

>> doctor rachel said it was totally normal that he experienced a bit of sensation in that area. and that he was doing really well for his first time and puncture. so i checked them checked them out afterward and he was pretty relaxed. doctor rachel said after acupuncture you get a little sleepy and you might take a nap. i'm not sure that in key will join his big brother imo j for their next appointment but now they have something to. >> this is completely absurd. what is the next step? furry facials? people are being ridiculous. >> have you ever gotten acupuncture? >> it works for a lot of people and apparently worse for dogs. >> i did it for a back injury and i can't really say that i felt the difference.
