the chicago government entirely irrelevant to this?hing, a lot of guys are stealing cars and using those cars to go out and shoot at people and then also i am not anti-police, my thing is the police have never been trying to stop killers on the front end. that's very important for people to understand. right now, over 2,000 people have been shot today and about 354 people have been killed and to date also, 52 young people under the age of 15 have been shot and ten young people under 50 and have been killed so violence is an epidemic in its become chicago and you have a mayor and superintendent going to the third quarter of the year just like you were the super bowl when you saw you were down 31 points, you change your strategy to come home with a super bowl ring and the mayor is not listening right now, i am not the overall solution but i am part of the solution. everyone keeps saying violence interrupters. i am the originator, i'm often imitated but never duplicated, they are not mentioning the guys that i train to stop killers on the

as you mentioned, 100 and chicago. we had 189 people murdered, and 30 children shot in this country over the weekend. you add ontoha had 158 police officers, because he had the three shot this morning, and it's a complete disaster right now. i am happy that the administration at least is acknowledging that we have a problem here in this country, but let's get down to it. they need to take their own part of the task, including in chicago, where people are still actively pushing to defund the police. >> gillian: joe, let me jump in real quick. i want to pick up on a thread here. something else he said, you are doing a very good job at laying out the scope of this problem for us here. you say that right now, in your opinion, based on your expertise, it looks like this epidemic of violence is the number one crisis facing america. and it's eclipsing the national economy, it is eclipsing the impact of the covid pandemic. talk to us more about why and how this is ballooning away from just an issue hitting certain cities and i

from chicago, here is adriana diaz. >> diaz: good evening.elta variant is rapidly turning america's attention back to the pandemic, and driving the biden administration to consider a third shot for at-risk americans. cases are up in 46 states this past week, especially those with large, unvaccinated populations. how bad is it? well, daily cases are up nationwide 281% since june 19. cbs' michael george in new york starts us off tonight. michael, good evening. >> reporter: adriana, good evening. doctors annurses in some parts of the country are once again fighting an uphill battle. hospital beds keep running out, cases are rising, and there is frusevn ented if they had gotten the vaccine. with covid cases surging nationwide, the biden administration is acknowledging some of the most vulnerable americans, like those with compromised immune systems, may need a third vaccine shot. the highly contagious delta variant is spreading faster than health experts first predicted. > there is a whole bunch of people unvaccinated in the heart of the midwest,

matt finn is in chicago with the latest. good evening, matt. >> bret, chicago police report that over the weekend here, another 11 people were murdered, 44 people shot across this city. and as peter doocy just reported, today, chicago police superintendent david brown met with the president and the attorney general at the white house. brown says they are all committed to a strike force here in chicago. hyper focused on consequences for people who drive the violence. chicago's top cop says he, attorney general garland had a very substantive meeting. >> offered whatever we needed from the doj we would get those resources including task force officers it includes additional prosecutions it includes fast tracking investigations on conspiracy cases. >> also, police have arrested the alleged killer seen in this horrific viral video from a few weeks ago here in i chicago. a couple with two young children dragged from their car on june 19th. left for dead in the street. 34-year-old anthony lorenzy was arrested in california facing o

chicago is a dumpy little swampy area on lake michigan in what becomes a major shipping port.nd becomes the easiest port in the city when the canal is finished for at least another decade. and by 1900 the population was so explosive it becomes the fastest growing city in the world at the turn-of-the-century. that was facilitated by this idea that lincoln champion along with steven douglas. even more importantly the illinois central railroad which was really built to supplement what was going up and down the canals becomes the longest railroad in the world by 1850. not until the civil war. it became a major transit route during the civil war. so keep those two things in mind. these are two immense developments in the history of the country in the midwest links east in a market to western markets of the southern points. it's globalization in a very small sense but in a very growing sense. now what happens in the civil war comes along? we know what lincoln says. we know about the house divided speech, we note the lincoln douglas debates. i started going to some of the material he

>> emily: bullets flying again in chicago. just as president biden visited the area, but largely ignored the massive crime wave in that blue-led city, when that included the shooting of a police officer and two federal agents. and this as a young victim of the senseless violence, a college student hit by a stray bullet, is laid to rest today. this is "outnumbered." i'm emily compagno. here today, my cost, kayleigh mcenany. sox's correspondent, gillian turner. host of "no interruption," tomi lahren, and senior editor of ""the federalist,"" chris bedford. the crime stats are stunning, with three people killed in 19 wounded in shootings just yesterday alone. the explosion of gun balance rocking chicago that has already taken the lives of a 19-year-old national guard soldier who dreamed of one day becoming a police officer. he would have turned 20 tomorrow. and max lewis, a college student left paralyzed from the neck down who used his eyes to signal he wanted to be taken off life support. his funeral is today. so you would think

>> reporter: these officers were chicago police commander and a chicago police sergeant who were shot crowd. they say they're both expected to be okay, but they were among the more than 80 shot over the course of this weekend including a 5 and 6-year-old girl. also among those shot, a member of the illinois national guard. he was killed as our affiliate reports. private first class chris carvajal just completed basic training and was set to be assigned to a transportation unit. he was 19 years old, and he was among the 14 killed, again, that we saw over the course of this weekend. >> omar, can you just tell us what's going on in chicago? give us a status report. it appears to be a real violent spike, but the mayor of chicago has disputed that crime is on the rise. so which one is right? >> reporter: alison, it's a little bit of both. the bottom line is we have seen significant decreases in murders, especially looking at this year and last year. as of june 30th, for the first time this year, the number of murders is actually below what it was at this point last year. when you look at j

in chicago, over the july 4 holiday you had over 100 people shot in chicago. and over and expecting a different results. that seems to be what is going on in chicago. they just cannot get their act together there. dagen: think that a sale hit that police officer was held on bond i think it was like 30,000 dollar bond. i will add this, why is it that the police officers and the people of these cities stand it together in the liberal leadership. i guess they are in their high-rises and their dated houses. they do not stand with the people and they do not stand with the men and women putting their lives on the line to keep us all safe, like you ted williams thank you so much great to see you. >> my pleasure. dagen: tropical storm is next this past year has felt like a long, long norwegian winter. but eventually, with spring comes rebirth. everything begins anew. and many of us realize a fundamental human need to connect with other like-minded people. welcome back to the world. viking. exploring the world in comfort... once again. there's an america we build and o
