they had a veto over who could come in. >> brennan: u.s. intelligence has said covid, according to wide scientific consensus, was not man made or genetically modified. you're not alleging it was, are you? >> no. the ledger on the side of the explanation that said this resulted from some kind of human error far outweighs the side of the scale that says this was some natural outbreak. we have very strong reason to believe that the chinese military was doing secret, classified animal experiments in that same laboratory, going all the way back to at least 2017. we have good reason to believe that there was an outbreak of flu-like illness among researchers working in the wuhan institute of virology in the fall of 2019, immediately before the first documented cases came to light. >> brennan: what you're referring to is some information that the state department declassified right before the end of the trump administration. >> right. >> brennan: and it said that you have reason to believe that a covid-like disease is circulating in autumn of 2019

>> brennan: i'm well.his week your stores and other pharmacy chains are now receiving directly from the federal government doses of the covid-19 vaccine. according to your press release, you'll get 100 doses initially for stores in california, new jersey, and philly. what does it mean to get the vaccine directly? >> it is long-awaited. we're super excited to be getting these doses directly so we have the ability to protect more people in a meaningful way. we have been doing over 140,000 shots so far with state governments and local municipalities. so we were in the whole process much earlier than we ever expected, even with the states. but it is just exciting to be picked in these states as one of two pharmacies that will be distributing the federally allocated doses. >> brennan: with the newly allocated doses, how many vaccinations do you think you'll be able to conduct each week? how many did you do this week, for example? >> so we're doing -- we got 116,000 doses last week. those are all right in proces

t make sure we had a solid plan for reopening. >> brennan: on the c.d.c.now a report got a lot of attention really urging schools to reopen, and saying that transmission can be stopped if masks are warned and there is social distancing. but the same report said there should still be restrictions in the community, and it cited indoor dining. chicago has already reopened its bars and restaurants. how do you feel about that? >> i think we have learned a lot about reopening from the past spring. definitely prioritizing the reopening of schools has to be at the top of the list, and our mayor has done that. we have reopened bars and restaurants at limited capacity here in the city. but one thing that was really important in that report is that it shows that community spread does not necessarily impact on kids in a particular school. and implementing mitigation strategies with fidelity will lead to more success with reopening. so we're focused on that. we have a solid plan in place that goes above and beyond the gui guidance we've heard from the city, as wes iciv

director brennan, good morning to you. thanks for being on. >> sure.g, hallie. >> so we heard the d.c. police chief testify that he is available 24/7 to talk to the fbi or any agency when it comes to security issues like this and i wonder based on the reporting that ken has done, do you see this, what has happened, as a wake-up call for our intelligence agencies? >> well, i think there needs to be a very thorough review done at the capitol police and the sergeant-at-arms and house and senate as well as the fbi and the domestic intelligence agencies. just to determine exactly what are the challenges as well as obstacles to having better insight into this growing challenge that we are facing of domestic terrorism. and so there are issues related to free speech and privacy rights, but at the same time there is an obligation on the part of these agencies to do all they can to uncover plans to carry out violent attacks and to do what they can to thwart them. therefore i think it was outrageous what happened on january 6. this gives us an opportunity to take

let's bring in lawrence brennan he's an adjunct professor of law at fordham university school of law joining us from new york many thanks for speaking to us. what do you make of the case so far have the democrats done enough in persuading 17 republicans needed to join them in convicting trump. it's tough to say without knowing what is going on in the minds of the jurors the 17 senators and all the senators statistically it's improbable that they have been convinced to convict on the evidence the fact that the evidence can be interpreted one way or the other is probably not the issue in a trial of this nature because they are political ramifications as we well remember from the clinton impeachment case where there was no factual dispute as to president clinton's truthful statements under oath respectively perjury a federal crime there are some factual disputes in this case as to what the president did when he did it what he failed to do and if they rise to that level of crimes under the u.s. code this is a different type of case so as you correctly point out on your question the issue
