here is what chris christie said. >> i don't know. i don't know.an, listen, up to this point in time, up to the emails released yesterday, it was senator brokarone's testimony t mr. wildstein initiated with his approval. >> is that true? >> ari, i think it came across very clearly that governor christie's view of what happened, our case played itself out in the courtroom. david wildstein, prosecutors have all said came up with this idea, and, you know, seven years later, i had to go to the supreme court to get those convictions overturned. >> and i want to read from the court of opinion again, because it is striking, as mentioned. it's 9-0, and it says very clearly that you and these other individuals as reported did not commit a crime. that's important in the public record, and we certainly have covered that story. they also say, and i want to get your response to this, because it's the first time you're speaking, that you basically for no other reason than political payback, barone and kelly used it to jeopardigenera deception and jeopardized the

>> good morning, christi.be tough. contact tracing as we know has been an old public health measure that's been in place for decades and it has worked, just like you said, it's tracing all the people that the infected person has been in contact with and then if you will, you then quarantine the people that have been in close contact or isolate them if they have the infection. so with the virus growing and with us really not having a control, a box on the virus, this is a good strategy to really decrease the number of people who are out there spreading the disease unknowingly. >> so, janet, senator elizabeth warren along with some others introduced legislation this week on thursday to establish a federal covid contact tracing program. now, this would require a couple of things from the cdc, first of all, they would have to develop a national contact tracing strategy within 21 days, this he would collaborate with state, local and tribal health officials and, two, that this would apparently include provisions pre

we are so grateful to have you with us here, i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. this morning, there is pain and anger across america. there is now a fourth night of protests. of course, this started after the death of george floyd. and it's happening now in at least 20 states. floyd, a black man who was killed in police custody in minneapolis this week. a white officer knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes as he was being arrested. >> and fierce outbreaks in the u.s. system has led to protests across america. floyd's death was just the tipping point. anger simmers after the death of are maude arbery. and those are of just late. >> derek chauvin is now facing charges of third degree murder, manslaughterer as well. but the folks out there, they demanded that the other officers out there who were involved, that they face charges as well. >> in minneapolis where floyd was killed. police with protests as well, no officers were injured, though. >> there was really strong condemnation from atlanta mayor ticha lance bottoms. she said if you care about the city, go ho

>> a lot of them christi.referenced showed that 75% of american small businesses have applied for those loans and over 66% have received them. there's a local business here called flags of valor in ashburn, virginia, they make american flags sourced with american wood and their craftsmen are combat veterans. can you imagine the pain and how awful it was for their founders, joe and brian, to have to furlough four of those craftsmen. now they just received the ppp loan that allowed for them to bring those four craftsmen back. so those types of stories are heart warming and we're hearing more and more of them. >> we're glad to hear that as well. more quickly, what are small business owners telling you when they call you and say they're at their whits end? we know the story you just told has a good ending right now but what about other people, what is the most basic need? what stories are you hearing? >> their most basic need is cash. their second most basic need are customers to get that cash coming in the door.

>> reporter: well, good morning, christi.h, baltimore mayor bernard young is asking president trump to rethink his visit to baltimore tomorrow on memorial day, and that's because in baltimore, the stay-at-home orders are still in place. the government there, the local government still encouraging people to abide by cdc guidelines that recommend no gatherings more than ten people. the mayor warning that obviously, an event like the president visiting ft. mchenry on wednesday will gather more than ten people, violating in a way the city's stay-at-home orders. but this is coming as president trump is getting back out on the road more. you'll see that later this week. he'll also be going to the spacex launch in florida on wednesday. vice president mike pence also expected to join him there. they are getting back out on the road as their message to the american public is that it's safe for the country to reopen. we also saw that yesterday, victor and christi. it was a beautiful day here in washington. president trump went golfing

>> reporter: yeah, we certainly have, christi. a noticeable change in the posture by law enforcement. but overnight, that doesn't seem to have affected some of the rioting and some of the looting in certain places. we're here at what used to be a retail shopping center. you can see one building here was set ablaze. the water there on the ground from the sprinklers likely the only thing saving this building, putting out that fire. but as we walk here, you can see, this is a scene that we've seen in so many neighborhoods, and that is graffiti. i want to show you just kind of a tale of two experiences here. this here is a broom and dustpan. this is left behind from members of the community who were here yesterday cleaning up rubble and rubbish and destruction from the day before. but overnight we see more of that very same thing. now, in this area, we're across from the police precinct here, which is not far from where police officers took george floyd into custody. he later died in custody as well, we know, sparking all of this viol

>> it really depends, christi, on what the restaurant is.sometimes depends how large the business is. i talked to the georgia chamber of commerce president yesterday, and he said that the small mom and pops have been a little more desperate to open because they really need to make that income. and we saw that in the very beginning with barbershops and hair salons perhaps. and some of the larger chains, he says, they have a little more flexibility and more resources to take their time with this. but that's just a very blended observation. it doesn't apply in every case. in fact, in our case, looking in front of us, it's the large chain that is very eagerly open now. and the small locally owned business that's taking their time with this. so it really depends case to case. we have seen and people have told us about certain restaurants that seem packed. and people, you know, lined up out the door. we do want to mention that governor kemp relaxed the restaurant restrictions even more this past week. so that there can be ten people per 300 square

>> reporter: well, still destruction here, christi. we're days from the incident where police officers were involved in that incursion with george floyd that resulted in his death, and parts of minneapolis continue to burn. i can show you behind me, this was once a shopping retail center here. there are at least four businesses. you can see overnight they were set ablaze by some of the violent protesters. the smoldering continues here. as we drove throughout the city, this is similar to many parts, businesses either defaced or set ablaze. now, there's a lot of graffiti around here as well. some of the graffiti calling for attacks on police and burning some of the precincts from different parts of the city. now, the scene behind me that you're seeing was the site of a violent confrontation last night between police officers and some of the protesters. now, this comes after the governor indicated that officials here would be using overwhelming force, in his words. there was a line of state patrol officers that formed behind us. they conf

history as it severely damaged christie's political ambitions at the time.to respond to that is former new jersey governor and 2016 presidential candidate himself, chris christie. it's fantastic to see you tonight. your biggest takeaway from this unanimous ruling given all of the abuse of power from the justice department and outlying prosecutors that we've seen since trump first came down the escalator. >> this was the politically appointed u.s. attorney for new jersey by the obama administration who from the time he got into office and i was elected governor one month thereafter was looking for a way to go out and get us. he was told by many members of the bar that the case he was pursuing had no basis in law and he didn't get one supreme court justice to support his interpretation of the law. he invented charges, he dragged our administration about six and a half years since its investigation started and it was filled with leaks and improper activity and charged with secret deals between the lawyers in u.s. attorney personally. it's not over yet, i think

>> reporter: christi, they're not yet.ere's still a lot we don't know about why the state department watchdog was removed last night. we know in a letter to house speaker nancy pelosi on friday evening president trump wrote he no longer had full confidence in steve linick, that is the state department inspector general. and that move is already drawing criticism from democrats, including speaker pelosi. i want to read you part of a statement she issued yesterday saying the president's late night weekend firing of the inspector general has accelerated his dangerous pattern of retaliation against the patriotic public servants charged with conducting oversight on behalf of the american people. he was punished for performing his duty to protect the constitution and our national security as required by the law and his oath. elliott ingle said shortly after the firing he had been made aware that steve linick had opened an investigation into secretary of state mike pompeo and a congressional aide tells cnn that investigation was

still marni now claims her murder confession to christi passion was a lie to protect her son.you lied then, but how do i know you're not lying now? >> i have nothing to lose at this point. >> but you have everything to ajor crimes task force told us it can't comment on the petition because of its court case. it was a skillfully rebranding of the facts, she says and the overwhelming evidence against marni. i have to ask you, did you kill roni? >> i did not, and i am not capable of doing anything like that. i am a mother myself. >> we'll be right back. symptoms following you? for adults with moderately to severely active crohn's disease, stelara® works differently. studies showed relief and remission, roni? and may increase your risk of infections and cancer. some serious infections require hospitalization. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you have an infection or flu-like symptoms or sores, have had cancer, or develop new skin growths, or if anyone in your house needs or recently had a vaccine. alert your doctor of new or worsening problems, including he

good morning to you, and christi.e was on the advisory board for president trump that was tasked with helping to reopen the country, to help bring sports back specifically. and even though we had a fighter from last -- on friday night -- that was pulled before the event because he tested positive for coronavirus, the event still went on, and it included this message from the president. >> we love it. we think it's important. get the sports leagues back. let's play. you do the social distancing and whatever else you have to do, but we need sports. we want our sports back. and congratulations to dana white, ufc. >> reporter: ufc 249 in jacksonville. vacant seat after vacant seat. it was an eerie sight there at the fight. center staff, media and presenters had their temperatures checked at the door. the ringside tables and chairs for those that were working the fight, including for the broadcasters, they were spaced apart, as you can see, and there were no fans, no crowd noise to drown out the sound of the blows. so very

kr christi and victor. >> alison, you're in new york.ell us about the extension of the pause there and the decision about school. >> reporter: yes. so the stay-at-home order here in new york remains until may 15th. and governor andrew cuomo announcing yesterday that schools will remain closed for the rest of the year that virtual learn will go continue. >> all right. so, i wanted to ask you, too, real quickly about this pandemic, and the fact that it can't stop love at the end of the day. there's a new jersey mayor allowing weddings to go on. how are they doing this? >> reporter: it's not just new jersey, california did this, new york did this, showing that love conquers all even during a pandemic. usually, have to be in person with a clerk, and saying you don't have to do that, you can get a marriage license in video conference with a clerk, and anyone, it doesn't have to be a clerk, anyone who has a license to marry someone, you can go ahead and do that. now, you can say "i do" over zoom if you're in california, new york, or new jersey

>> good morning, christi and victor. when it comes to actual legal action we haven't been able to find any that president trump can take. and the administration hasn't provided anything to us. this is the late evidence in the battle between federal and state officials. who is actually responsible for what. and does state or federal have power over actually reopening? remember, it was just weeks ago that we were having the same conversation about states opening in general. president trump saying he was in charge of when states reopened. of course, we know since then, that wasn't true. and the states have been on their own time lines. some of them quicker, some of them slower. it's just the latest in the push/pull that we've seen. listen to what president trump says when it comes to places of faith. >> governors need to do the right thing and allow these very important essential places of faith to open right now. this weekend. ful th if they don't do it, i will override the governors. >> when you look at this, obviously, s

chris christie the former governor of new jersey and one time g.o.p. rival of donald trump on the busy politics. for the politicking on larry king he says more americans are going to die no matter what the u.s. does about call the 19 the challenge is deciding how to balance the situation so where's the balance find out was chris christie former republican governor of new jersey one time g.o.p. rival of donald trump who went on to serve as head of trump's transition team he joins us from new jersey governor thank you and the united states has about 4.5 percent of the world's population but 29 percent of coronavirus deaths how do you account for that i think a few things are a 1st off it's great to be back on with you i would say this but that 1st off i think we're the most transparent society in the world so i think we're giving accurate information all the time it don't you can say that about the chinese the north koreans the russians i'm i know they were getting accurate information from them and i can't imagine that the chinese don't have more corona

>> reporter: well, christi, we talked about the yesterday.hite house told us over the weekend on friday the reason he wasn't going to testify, dr. fauci that is, because it was unproductive during a pandemic response. now it appears there the a political motive. one, president trump lashing out on twitter saying that democrats are doing nothing that they're looking for trouble. the press secretary yesterday talking to reporters really doubling down on that. take a listen to what she had to say. >> we're working in good faith. and, yes, we want to work with the house to ensure that they do get the witnesses that they're asking for. but these need to be requests that make sense. not a publicity stunt, which was leaked we were blocking dr. fauci and that was not the case. >> reporter: she went on to say democrats never told the white house what exactly fauci needed to be testifying for. again he is still not going to testify in front of the democratic-led house. will he testify in front of the republican-led statement. i want to put up a questio

sergio quintana and christie smith. what's going on sergio? >> reporter: i can tell you as you mentioned, police officers and fire crews are still on scene here at pier 45. that fire came within just a few feet of the "ss jeremiah o'brien," but very quick work from fire crews saved that world war ii era ship. towering flames and thick black smoke, first crews on scene immediately called for backup. more than 150 firefighters mobilized to knock down the four alarm fire. >> we're doing a surround and drown, getting this from all sides. too dangerous for our members to be in there. >> reporter: first moments of the firefight, chaotic. you can see firefighters spraying one of their ladder trucks. >> placed truck in position to save the warehouse to my right, and they did that amazingly and here oically, getting heat impingement and damage to the fire truck. >> reporter: one firefighter was injured with serious cut on his hand, taken to local hospital. fire crews didn't attack from inside because several walls collapsed. other side of the pier, cre

. >> reporter: good morning, christi and victor. this is the harshest criticism we've heard from the former president of the administration. it gives us insight into what the former president's role may be in campaigning for joe biden as we get closer to that november election. the remarks were made on a private call to the obama alumni administration workers. and the audio was obtained by yahoo! news and confirmeds by cnn. and the former president had a lot to say, particularly when it came to michael flynn. michael flynn being president trump's former national security adviser who pled guilty to lying to the fbi back in 2018. earlier this week, the department of justice decided to drop those charges. a decision that the former president slammed saying it looked like the rule of law was at risk. take a listen. >> and the fact that there is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury. just getting off scot-free. that's the kind of stuff where you begin to get worried that basic understanding the

good morning, christi and victor. the weather is giving people with daben fever a reason to get out of their homes and get fresh air. but that's posing challenges for social distancing. sunny, spring weather along the east coast brought out spectators in droves saturday to watch the blue angels and thunderbirds conduct formation flights. in washington, baltimore and atlanta, saluting medical workers and first responders on the front lines of the coronavirus crisis. crowds gathered at the national mall defying requests from officials to stay at home to watch the flyover. sidewalks were packed. many wearing no masks and taking no distancing precautions. others appear to be following recommended safety guidelines. at prince george's hospital in maryland, medical staff gathered outside to enjoy the moment of honor. >> our staff had been working tirelessly to treat the community and to see the level of response and appreciation and let them have a chance, let their hair down for a second and really you know take it all in.

governor christie needs a bloomin' onion!n a positive note, i want to mention that today is national teacher day, which is part of national teacher appreciation week. and i will say that after almost two months at home with my kids, at our house, every week is now teacher appreciation week. they should also get shark week. they should get all the weeks. children are wonderful to a point, and we're lucky we have teachers to pawn them off on. so with that said, we asked parents to show their gratitude for our nation's educators during this time of crisis and strife on this very special day. >> dear teachers. >> dear teachers. >> thank you. >> thanks for all you do. >> every single day. >> we never fully appreciated you. >> we took you for granted. >> but having our kids at home has taught us. >> beyond a shadow of a doubt. >> that our children. >> our children. >> our sweet, beautiful children. >> are terrible! >> stubborn. >> selfish. >> impossible monsters. >> who suck our life force. >> begging for snacks like zoo animals. >

davidson, to you first, we just played the clip from chris christie, you have a visceral reaction to what he was saying especially when he talked about yes there will be deaths. what did you think? >> yeah, i agree with congressman gallego in that it seemed very flippant. i acknowledged it. it is commendable that he's acknowledging this. it feels like much of the administration including the president's son-in-law feels like they've done a great job and that is all they have to say about it. but when you've spent a career in emergency medicine and you see people die and tell loved ones that their spouse has died and you're so sorry and i talk to my friends in new york that have had to do that so many times a day over this crisis, it seems troubling that it might just be accepted as a matter of course that there may be nothing that we can do about it. >> your tweet really struck me saying that he would never have seen someone die, never had to hold the hand of a loved one and tell them how sorry you are. juliette, you have a different take? >> i do. i actually sort of appreciated the
