so mayor bowser, as a proud d.c. resident, as its elected chief executive, can you tell us about some of the wonderful contributions that d.c. residents make not just to this community, but to our country every day? >> thank you for sharing the nevada story. we do indeed look forward to telling the d.c. story and being admitted just like nevada was by simple legislation by this congress who has that full authority. when we think about d.c. residents, we are eight wards, 700,000 people. people who start businesses here and pay their taxes. they pay more taxes per capita than any other american. we pay more taxes than 20 states. we are a donor state to the federal government. sometimes people are mistaken and think that the federal government pays to operate the district of columbia. that's just not the case. i presented just a couple of weeks ago a $17 billion budget to the council of the district of columbia which will become our state legislature. unlike other mayors, we operate a school system, the corrections syst

mayor muriel bowser of washington, d.c., thank you for joining us. mayor bowser: thank you.e its meeting today with the fda, pfizer's recent push to add a booster shot to its covid-19 vaccination protocol seemed to be at odds with what many people thought they had understood about the drug's effectiveness. and, as william brangham reports, it also has prompted real concern among health care professionals. william: that is right, judy. late last week, pfizer said it recommended adding a third so-called booster shot to its original two-shot vaccine at about six months after initial immunization. the company said that's when its own internal study showed the vaccine's initial protections began to decline. but those findings contradicted other research. and many public health officials disagreed whether boosters were necessary or appropriate, especially given that three-quarters of the world's population has not had a single dose just yet. one of those weighing in is dr. kirsten bibbins-domingo. she's a professor of epidemiology and biostatistics at the university of california

mayor bowser. the order to clear the capitol was not issued after conversation with speaker pelosi, it was not issued after a conversation with leader schumer. the conversation with vice president pence happened at 4:08 and 4:32 was when the verbal authorization, according to the dmd, happened -- dod, happened. that was three hours after mayor bowser first requested national guard assistance. why did it take 92 minutes after ordering the full mobilization of the d.c. national guard at 3:00 p.m. to authorize and help clear the capitol at 4:32? mr. miller: i am sorry. this is a great conversation. i want to be helpful. at 3:00 p.m., i gave the order to mobilize the national guard. then, the planning sequence went forward. the concept of the operation, the plan was approved -- representative: i apologize, i have limited time. it took 90 minutes to plant to send the national guard to the capital -- to the capitol. major general walker testified was actually 5:08 p.m. when he finally received authorizat

muriel bowser has approved overtime for patrol squads for police officers that are out on the street.dents to feel safe, the same thing with all mayors across the country. but it's difficult right now. it's a difficult time, a lot of challenges especially with an increase, a steady increase and a steady flow of crime across the country in big and small cities. take, for example, washington, d.c. where you and i are right now. thursday night patrons were just enjoying dinner about a mile from the white house when shots were fired outside of a popular restaurant. many innocent people were caught in the middle of the gunfire. d.c. police chief robert contee says he needs more boots on the ground and the court system needs to step it up and, work in favor of law enforcement. chicago is another large city with a serious crime problem. the courts there are backed up by at least 35,000 felony cases. right now the state's attorney for cook county handles both cases in the county and the city of chicago. mike, i was in chicago thursday and friday, i sat down with kim fox, the top prosecutor kn

so maria bowser in d.c. and she hopes to do sue, consoled by 2022. >> we have these liberal mayors who say we want to bring in more law enforcement but they were the one saying we want to cut law enforcement, we want to defund law enforcement. so until you have a mayor bowser and other liberal mayors come out and say i'm going to apologize to the victims have been hurt by my crimes, i'm going to apologize to law enforcement who i've demonized and if they don't step away from black lives matter and criticize black lives matter for wanting to defund the police, i don't think anyone will believe these mayors. the problem is, what young man or woman wants to go into law enforcement when you have both liberal mayors and city councils that will have your back? no one will take the job because you all are the target as a police officer, not the criminals. >> richard are you saying that those who are in your party are changing her tune in the wake of this violence? >> thanks for having me. i can't speak for sean but

now mayor bowser says the district will hire dozens of officers after being rocked by crime.rney who has represented police. he's also a fox news contributor. ted, great to see you. the d.c. mayor plans to hire 170 police officers. we told you d.c. police chief said they lost 215 since october. they are playing catch-up. how do you get back to even? >> it's interesting to see how they get back to even, trace. i can tell you the mayor has seen the light in recent weeks here. we had a shooting outside of the major metropolitan baseball stadium. a shooting in broad daylight on 14th street in the district of columbia. we had a 6-year-old child shot and killed in the district as a result of that, the mayor wants to add 170 police officers to the police force. the big question is, is it going to go forward? last year they defunded the police department by $25 million. as a result of that, the question now is even though the mayor wants to do this, is the city council going to go along with her, trace. the second question, once and if the city council goes along with this, who wants

[gunshots] >> muriel bowser stand with the police chief promising to prosecute to the fullest extente law. >> i'm outraged and what we saw tonight and unfortunately what we saw over the last several days is illegal firearms brazenly used on d.c. treats. judge jeanine: this woman marched with thousands demanding police be defunded. now the murder rate in washington, d.c. is the highest it's been in 15 years. democrat i now state attorney kim foxx's clearance statistics on gun crimes are pathetic and chicago is the shooting capital of america. last week 1 people shot. -- 61 people shot. including a 14-year-old shot dead in the last 48 hours. lori lightfoot, the mayor of chicago who won't answer questions from a white reporter blames the courts saying they are closed. >> the courts are not closed in chicago. even the state's attorney says they are open. but now kim foxx says she is willing to drop all the non-violent crimes, that means economic crimes, folks, to catch up. and this week, the office of missouri democrat prosecutor kim gardner missed a court date and a murderer was release

mayor muriel bowser, a democrat, who was at the white house meeting today. let's start with the big question, mayor bowser why is gun violence rising in your city? >> well, i don't think any person can point to one thing, lissa on the the rise in shootings. certainly we see a prevalence of illegal guns in our city and we see a repeat offenders usingns >> we are attacking the problem from all sides including law enforcement strategy but community policing, excuse me, community violence intervention strategies as well. >> i'm going to come back to that, there is a debate over really who should be responsible and solve this problem. some republicans say that this is an issue for mayors like yourself. and it is under your watch that we have seen these numbers go up. what do you say to those republicans who say this is not a federal issue, this is something for local mayors and police to be dealing with? >> well, i have been mayor six years, i have seen crime numbers go up and down, and always our strategy is to focus on opportunities, prevention and enforcement.

the mayor was yelling about illegal guns yesterday after this happen, let's listen to what muriel bowser said. >> i am outraged, the cheapest outrage, the community should be outraged, what we saw tonight and unfortunately what we saw over the last several days is an illegal firearm recently used on d.c. streets. >> john: is this a case of you reap what you sow? saying i'm going to shoot the place up, this is criminals with illegal guns, addressing that, but not being enforced? >> correct, and d.c. has some of the strongest gun laws on the books, just like chicago, just like los angeles, just like other places where we have seen, minneapolis where we have seen crime rise. this is emboldening criminals and demoralize police, and leadership totally adrift, defining them because they are beholden to the left wing base, and it all comes back to certain moments that happen in minneapolis when the police precinct was taken over and last year in washington, d.c., that these politicians have never recovered from and instead mischaracterize the police and falling with the activists, and we wonder

. >> just last month, the mayor bowser wanted to cut funding for police and now she says she wants to see the department quote, use any overtime necessary to stop the recent spike in crime. it's not only happening in our nation's capital. according to data analytics, more than 4,000 murders in 73 cities so far this year, up more than 15% from this time last year. adding to the challenges facing chief conty here in d.c., he says he's over 200 police officers short and expects that number to grow. jacqui. griff: that's not good news, lucas. i'm stealing that. just as a resident here of 27 years, the story is unbelievable. and outrage in missouri after a st. louis judge dismisses three murder cases because the prosecutor did not show up to court. we have christina coleman live with more. hi, good afternoon, christina. >> hi, griff. yeah, well, this situation resulted in a murder suspect getting released from jail last week. well, last night that murder suspect, 30-year-old brandon campbell was arrested by the u.s. marshals just outside of st. louis. though he's back in custody there's ou

in bowser's defense she is opposed to defunding the police even as the d.c.o ship 23 million out of the budget, a destructive ideology turning every liberal city into organized mayhem. it's what senator tom cotton sound calls the blm effect which sounds like what happens to me after having a cigarette with coffee. you can work at it. a obvious point that anti-law enforcement sentiment championed by black lives matter and the media caused a drop in policing leading to fewer arrests and a rising murder rate. week policing, weak prosecuting, weak senteing hurts black americans more than any other group. they constitute half of all murder victims and regularly suffer the brunt of damage resulting from riots. meanwhile in new york two teens were turned in by their parents for assaulting an off-duty firefighter, et cetera video was shared online. as punishment they will be forced to work as president of biden's transcriber. you coddle criminals like their little koala bears, i bet you feel pretty stupid now that all of your heroes are trying to get more cops on the

that mayor, mayor bowser, she's accountable for public safety. we talk about running for governor, i understand that. i hope the viewers go to chiefjamescraig.com. it's time for people to lead from the front. it's not happening in d.c., it's not happening in chicago. the chicago mayor made a statement we can't arrest our way out of this problem. folks is on social service. i believe in those long-term strategies. i believe in community police. let's stop the bleeding now. short term what must we do? that criminal justice system is broken. i got to tell you, she said it. what about the courts? what about the prosecutors? look what is happening in st. louis. malfeasance. >> martha: a lot of places they're saying the courts are not open and functioning correctly because of covid. before i let you go, one of the things you did in detroit, you want to the colony arms and arrested 20 to 30 people in a short time. you said that alone started to turn the altitude of criminals, right? >> absolutely. proactive policing works. all you have to do is go back

s mayor, muriel bowser, wanted to cut funding for police. now she wants the department to use, quote, any overtime necessary. bowser blames the backlog in federal courts for putting violent criminals back on the street. according to data analytics, there's been more than 4,000 murders in 73 cities so far this year. that's up more than 50% this time last year. >> why is it that a guy who murders somebody is out in communities after having been arrested two or three months later -- two or three months prior with a firearm? what did we think he was going to do? the recidivism rate for violent offenders is the highest that we've seen anywhere, 87%. >> reporter: d.c.'s mayor says as of june there were over 10,000 criminal cases pending. she says that means more people are are being arrested and immediately released. arthel? arthel: definitely a problem. eric? eric: outrage in missouri, the governor calling the december function of the st. louis circuit attorney's office after three murder cases were dismissed there because prosecutors, get this,

mayor muriel bowser joining me now.just heard the clip, of course you were with him at the town hall meeting. i was watching it live. our police commissioner, robert conte. i saw you brushing away a tear at one point, madam mayor. it's just intolerable that a child on a scooter 6 years old would be gunned down in a crossfire with these killer gangs or whoever they are. do we know anything more about who did this? >> well, we know that our police department is investigating this, thoroughly investigating this. we're asking for the public's help. we know that the people who did this are killers in our community and we as a community have to stand against anybody who will use a gun and we're focused on finding the perpetrators of this violent crime. this 6-year-old baby is not with us anymore. it's not a game and we have to do everything that we can to protect our children. >> do you have any leads on this or on what's happened outside nats park? >> the police have already located the vehicle involved. they continue to int

. >> martha: so that was mayor bowser of washington d.c.g support to the blacks lives matter protest that existed in that city. there was violence in that city. they made many arrests. in some cases in that plaza, they had police officer effigies that looked like pigs with "police" on them. today a different scene is playing out. there's gangs in the streets, doing combat. shooting people and it's becoming common that innocents get killed or shot in the cross fire. one of them sadly this weekend, was this little 6-year-old girl, naya courtney. her shorter likely fired from this car that you can see on the right-hand side. they found the car burned, burned the evidence of that vehicle. the numbers are staggering. now mayor bowser wants her police force to work overtime to stop it. my next guest's grandson was killed the last fourth of july. devon mcneill was 11 years old. he wanted to play football when he grew up. his grandfather is the director of the washington d.c. guardian angels and chief of place for special arc angels that provides s

third, since mayor bowser declared a public health emergency last march, the district has not issuedmits for any large gathering. although the district and mpd take pride in facilitating the exercise of first amendment rights by all groups, regardless of their beliefs, none of the public gatherings on january 5 and 6 were issued permits by the city. on the morning of january 6, mpd was prepared to support our federal partners with a first amendment assembly that was held primarily on federal land, while continuing to patrol and respond to calls for service throughout dc. based on our experience with prior demonstrations after the election, we recognized that there was a possibility of violence, especially after dark, as smaller groups of protestors gathered with malicious intent on our city streets. to be clear, available intelligence pointed to a large presence of some of the same groups that had contributed violence in the city after demonstrations in november and december. the district had intelligence indicating the potential for violent actions in the streets of the district of

mayor muriel abuser wants police to -- bowser wants police to use any overtime necessary. >> we saw aome in with a gunshot wound and knew immediately this was real and wasn't just firecrackers. >> reporter: d.c. recently crossed the hundred-homicide mark two weeks ago. it's the earliest d.c. has crossed that threshold in eight years. carjackings are up 74% compared to last year. this comes just days after a shooting outside nats park. it comes less than a week after 6-year-old naya courtney was shot and killed by a stray bullet not far from the ballpark. and, jackie, all the suspects both in the shooting last night here on 14th street, the killing of naya courtney and the shooting at nats park, those suspects remain at large. jackie: jack lew cat, thank you so much for that. -- lucas, thank you for that. the police chief didn't stop there, listen to this. >> i'm going to tell you the truth. the real issue is we have a crisis of bad actors who will do things, no accountability, and they end up back in community. and the police officers, i guarantee you, when we lock up whoever did this

mayor muriel bowser wanted to cut funding for police.ow she says she wants the department to use, quote, any overtime necessary to stop the recent surge in crime. >> i'm outraged. the chief is outraged. the community should be outraged. what we saw over the last several days is an illegal firearm brazenly used on d.c. streets. >> recently crossed the 100 homicide mark two weeks ago. the earliest thresh fold 18 years. the shooting on 14th street comes just days after a shooting outside of nats parked sending thousands of panicked fans, many with small children rushing to the exits. comes less than a week after 6-year-old nyiah courtney was shot and killed by a stray bullet not far from the ballpark. >> one thing i know about this city is if you don't hold people accountable for the things they do people will continue to engage in bad behavior. >> d.c.'s police chief says is he more than 200 officers short, the suspects in last night's shooghts shooting, the one outside nats park and killing of little girl remain at large. bret? >> bret: l

there was a small number of us, police chiefs, another mayor, mayor muriel bowser and a couple of experts in community-based policy solutions and really spent more than two hours with us, talking about our communities and how the federal government can be a better partner. we talked about guns, it's been a long-standing passion of his to crackdown on illegal guns. and he was particularly interested in what we're doing in san jose and what we call straw purchasing. we talk add little bit about the videotaping and inventory regulation that we are involved in. >> mayor liccardo, i know you were very passionate about this after the gilroy shooting. and then after the vta shooting really became impassioned. but mass shootings make up less than 1% of the gun violence. all of the shooters bought their guns legally. so how would this ordinance or these changes even impact that? wouldn't they have been able to get their guns anyway? and nothing would have stopped that. >> you're right, mass shootings are a very small percentage of the deaths and injuries that americans suffer every year as a resul

mayor bowser be entered into the record. chairwoman: without objection. >> i think that we are starting to wrap up this hearing, and i want to thank the witnesses for your testimony. i have a couple of quick questions and i know the chairwoman has a couple and then will have some closing comments. i guess i will start with the two questions, where i started my questions initially with the events that happened in the summer of 2020, where authorization happened very quickly for the national guard. there was no delay. you were immediately deployed, general walker. yet it happened differently on january 6. part of that is some of the surveillance. my first question for you, ms. sanborn, it has been reported that the fbi deployed a state-of-the-art surveillance planning to watch the protests in washington, d.c. over the summer in response to the death of george floyd. how do you explain the difference in how the fbi responded to the black lives matter protests compared to the pro-trump protests? ms. sanborn: i don't have any spe

meyers told us that he is right now crafting a letter to mayor bowser here asking for business as well as other gyms saying we need to focus more on incentivizing the vaccinated. this is something as we go forward he says that earlier in the pandemic they went ahead and mandated the vaccine. they found it was good for business. this is a city where you have high levels of vaccination at 72% of individuals here that have at least received one staff in the arm, jose. >> that is interesting. the issue of incentives. how effective they are or are not. there is new reports about how the white house is reigniting. they say making life inconvenient works fairly well. that is making people's lives more difficult. >> and i think the messaging could not been something that we reward or punish. people say i want to keep my business open to make money. we know from 1918 to 1920 when that many americans became six what followed was the great depression. your business is tied to the health of your workers if you don't have corkers you don't have a business. so they need to think about that. they nee

mayor bowser announced there would be a mandate for people wearing masks from a vaccinated people wearingnside. she announced thursday that mask mandate would go into effect today but there are pictures online that shows her, she's celebrating her birthday party inside last night not wearing a mask so here we go again. it's always hypocrisy. charlie talked about it, we seen it from day one. remember during the campaign when harris and joe biden for saying we don't know if we are going to have the vaccine because the trump administration is in charge of it. now they want everybody to get vaccinated it is exactly what everybody has been talking about. mixed messaging, the hypocrisy and then to see mask mandates going back in d.c. and d.c. has had low rates of covered. i don't understand why they are doing this. then of course is that the mayor massless and it looks like they had a nice time with dave chapelle. a fun party. i have the numbers here, there were 69 new cases of covid-19 yesterday over the last two weeks in washington d.c., four people died charlie, the reason we shut down in th
