donna's story. donna struggled with alcoholism for 40 years before she found the strength and support to embrace recovery. when she was 57, she went back to school, eventually earning her master's in psychology and addiction counseling. she now helps those struggling with addiction and is living proof that recovery is possible. and, of course, when we're talking about turning adversity into purpose, we need to talk about caitlyn. caitlyn is a two-time breast cancer survivor who founded a group to provide support and resources for families who are impacted by this awful disease. she makes people feel welcome and safe during what can be a frightening, isolating experience, and she's changing lives one survivor at a time. like vivian, donna and caitlyn, erica also faces challenges. she was homeless as a teen but turned that into a plan to serve oregonians at the department of human services. today, she is someone who fights hard for unhoused communities and other vulnerable individuals and she has made a big difference in our community. and last but certainly not least, i want to tell you about namine james rogers. she is a diversity, equity and inclusion specialist whose mission is to ensure that her organization is as inclusive and compassionate as possible. and she embodies the quality that unites all of these women. a shared desire to build a better future for all. lori, estella, kristen, remi, vivian, donna, caitlyn, erica, namine, you enrich our community beyond measure. never doubt your impact because we all feel it every single day. thank you and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from tennessee, mr. kustoff, i about important resolution i'm introducing today. it's called th

his home in burton, kansas, surrounded by his loving family. he was born in 1915 in hutchison kansas after studying at kansas state university. he and his wife started their registered an gus operation which -- angus operation which later back the murray ranch. he and his family built a legacy all their own while carrying on the tradition of their ancestors. he spent a lifetime of pounding posts by hand. chuck wagon bookouts, live -- cookouts, livestock teams. he built a place to raise his family and cattle by the sweat of his brow. his gift was the ability to meet people of all walks of life and getting to know them. his network of friends was nationwide. he pursued another career as pharmacist. he attended the university of kansas school of pharmacy, graduated in 1990, after which he worked in the kansas area for 30 years retiring on his 70th birthday in 20206789 because of his career changing experience, he was able to come alongside people and find direction in their lives. he encouraged so many. to his wife, his son, his daughter, and all his grandchildren who have many prayers as you gather together to remember his loving impact. his legacy lives on in so many ways, especially in the cattle his family still produces. i know the first bull sale without andy will be tough, but what a way to honor his legacy by continuing on the tradition he loved so much. i'll pray for you tomorrow during the sale your family would have peace, andy would be honored, and the bulls would set new records. with that, madam speaker, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from illinois, ms. underwood, for five minutes. miss underwood: -- ms. underwood: last month bribe announced a vision to advance progress on his unity agreppedda on the year ahead. i encouraged by the focus on reducing veteran suicide which has been one of my highest priorities since coming to congress. i'm encouraged by the focus on expanding outreach to justice and involved veterans. in recent years, we have seen some signs of progress on this issue. from 2018 to 2020 age and sex adjusted veteran suicide rates fell by nearly 10%. however, with nearly 17 veterans still dying by suicide every day, a rate that is more than 50% higher than suicides among none veteran adults, we know we have much more work to do to save lives. part of the administration's agebda -- agenda is an important focus on increasing lethal means safety which is an intentional voluntary practice to reduce suicide risk by limiting access by those in crisis to lethal means by medications, firearms, and sharp instruments that can be used to inflict self-directed violence. the data on lite at means safety is clear. people who reduce their access to lethal means during times of lightened risk are reducing their risk of dying by suicide. given the robust evidence on the effectiveness of lethal means safety in preventing suicide, the trump administration implemented a requirement for every commission at the veterans health administration to complete a lethal means safety training so that they would be prepared to have conversations with the veterans they care for about this lifesaving practice. thanks to this requirement, nearly 100% of veterans health administration clinicians have completed the training. however, the training remains optional for all other v.a. staff, including at the veterans health administration, veterans benefits administration, vet centers, and vocational rehabilitation facilities this lack of a mandate has consequences. without a requirement to do so, a mere fraction of 1% of v.a.'s nonclinical employees have completed the department's lethal means training. what this means is that every day we have veterans who could be in crisis interacting with v.a. employees who might be able to identify risk factors and have lifesaving conversations, but these v.a. staff are not trained to do so. we could be losing our veterans because of it. that is unacceptable. and that's why i introduced the lethal means safety training act which would make the defendant's evidence-based train ago requirement for all v.a. staff who regularly interact with veterans and their work, as well as community providers and family caregivers. i'll continue my work to get this passed in congress, but no legislation is needed to expand v.a.'s existing training requirement to other v.a. employees. unfortunately, the administration's announcement last month did not include any plans for the secretary of veterans affairs to use his existing authority to expand the department's lethal means safety training requirement. the secretary of veterans affairs already has the authority to take this lifesaving action today and i once again call on him to do so immediately. every day that v.a. does not take the simple step as another day that we are leaving valuable tools in our toolbox unused. it's another day that we will lose nearly 17 veterans to suicide. not every single death can be prevented with an expanded lethal means safety training requirement, but at no cost to the department and with no need for additional legislation, there is no reason to further delay on implementing this policy. the secretary has an opportunity to help save the lives of our veterans with the stroke of his pen. i urge him to do so immediately. by expanding the department's lethal means safety training requirement to all staff who regularly interact with veterans and their work. this step would build on the meaningful actions the secretary is already taken and steps announced by the president last month. 245thank you, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from georgia, mr. collins, for five minutes. mr. collins: thank you, madam speaker. thank you, madam speaker. i rise today to demand accountability. pete buttigieg has shown he is unfit to lead the department of transportation and must resign immediately. from his first day in office he has been more focused on diversity training and identity politics and on building and maintaining america's transportation system. he's abandoned his department's mission of improving safety, technology, and efficiency of our infrastructure in favor of promoting diversity, equity, and inquleution initiatives -- ingleution initiatives. case in point, the train derailment in east palestine, ohio. he took 10 days to acknowledge the incident and three weeks to show up and support the community. as ohioans fled their homes and worried about their health, the secretary of transportation was on tv whining about too many white people in construction industries. his policies have continuously put the wokes before the folks. we are again seeing the consequences. after seeing another norfolk southern train derailed this weekend, i was reminded of the fact that the company wrote to shareholders stating it is focused on d.e.i. this administration's focus on d.e.i. is forcing private companies to rethink their goals and one has to wonder, was norfolk southern's d.e.i. policies directing resource ass way from the important things like greasing wheel bearings. this insanity must stop. speaking of insanity, it looks like secretary pete buttigieg is spend ago lot of taxpayer money flying on private jets. he doesn't want the american people to know where he's going or why. i don't know about you, but i have seem to recall a recent health and human services secretary being forced to resign over the same exact thing. why is the d.o.t. refusing to tell the american people how much secretary beauty jij -- buttigieg 23 flights on private jets has cost them? maybe the secretary should come to capitol hill and answer these questions for himself t would be a cheap trip and it wouldn't require airfare. either way it's time for him to resign. that will allow him time to promote wokeness and take private jets on his own dime in his own time. thank you, madam speaker. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from illinois, ms. kelly, for five minutes. ms. kelly: i rise today to celebrate the women of the divine nine. the historically black so roarities of the national council. in honor of international women's day i'm proud to honor the organizations that have produced some

donna crane is joining us. she is a political science lecturer at san jose state university. donna, thank you for your time tonight. so speaker mccarthy, governor desantis as well as former president trump all calling this a political prosecution and one phrase or another. what is your reaction to that? my reaction to that is that the republicans are wedging themselves into a very bad political spot for the long run. i understand why they're doing it. but there is no way out of this spot. and here's what i need it. the general public we're seeing from polling data thinks that this is a legitimate inquiry, thinks that this is legitimately problematic. ultimate a person running for president. >> who may have falsified records made illegal campaign contributions. it suffered such a but the trump base and therefore the republican party base does not think this is a problem and wants to see its standard bearers standing up and defending donald trump. so that means that the republican establishment now is it's a trump party is lining up behind donald trump which is going to maybe protect them to they're going to run into the buzz, saw of a general public opinion. the trump brand is not popular with the general public. so i am watching these things on full right now. and these commitments are going to haunt them in the long term. i think here's something that i find you can be a convicted felon. >> and not be allowed to vote in some parts of this country. donald trump could be convicted not only in this case, but there are at least 3, much more serious cases that are still pending. the atlanta, the georgia election interference that having the secret documents at mar-a-lago and what's the other the january 6 insurrection among other things, all of those convictions, if you were to be convicted, he could still run for president. he could still be elected president. you can still be president. >> well, the point i make in my classes that he could actually be in jail and still be and run for and be elected president. the constitution. let's almost anybody run for so, yeah, this is then what i guess. we're off to break some more norms here in the next few months. >> so earlier, the former president called for death and destruction if of the fact he was indicted. and of course, the indictment came down talk about the political pressure on the judge in this case and the district attorney in new york. >> yeah, i know this is no laughing matter at i really do hope that the the party has learned its lesson and will of, you know, what will make states contrary to you know, will come out and say, this is not how we handle things that we have seen some responsible statements for people like mitch mcconnell of the last few days. i do hope that there will be responsible republican leaders tamp this down. bragg says he's already getting death threats already meeting this this is, you know, the old playbook that we saw on january 6. and one of the reasons why i have been pretty steadfast in saying that there needs to be accountability for january 6 because i have been worried that they would try to run this play again and use the rest of public violence to our officials. >> right now, it appears set to the republican party has rallied around president trump. but at the same time you get the sense it ron desantis, mike pence in particular are trying to keep them at arm's length and the kind of walk walking a fine line here with trying to keep the trump base in step with them. in case he does go sideways and it looks like there's no turning back from trump and you get that sense as well. >> i absolutely do. i i sort of get a visual image of, you know, the desantis campaign just having all of their fundraising stuff ready to go. the the king falls, i think that's absolutely what's happening. >> do you anticipate a gag order or do you think they will allow cameras in the court? a lot of people are saying that he would likely want those cameras in the courtroom and the court in order to help raise money. >> i think that's absolutely what he afraid. you know, every judge makes 3rd their own decision about how they render courtroom. so we won't know until we see what they decide. but i can tell you that, for example, in my inbox tonight, i already saw a fundraiser for the trump campaign looking to sort of make lemonade out of these i selling t-shirts. you know, now's the time to stand with top kind of t-shirts. so i i think that the camp is going look to make this an as evidence that only threatens the u.s. the political establishment. >> what do you think is going to happen when he does go to they're supposed to be the booking he may or may not be handcuffed. they'll be mug shots. they'll be fingerprints. apparently they even take a dna sample from the president through that whole process. is that something that he can also fundraise off of that would normally be rather embarrassing and humiliating to anybody else? >> writes, this is this is been a sort of an intriguing little piece of gossip that apparently he sees the opportunity of a perk walk, which the rest of us are fine. you know, one of us million moments of our lives as up potential for looking heroic. >> i have to say just on a personal note that so i have listened to. proseiutors described that sometimes there are courtesies extended to professional people. who can't, you know, they can arrange their own surrender as opposed to being handcuffed and dragged. in a personal note, this rubs me the wrong way as a whole has a. >> person who works in politics. i feel like if we don't rule of law, we should all be treated the same. and so if he gets those we we may not see sort of the these will perp walk that we've got for cost of 2. so you know, can alluded to the other cases. the january 6 k's, the documents case coming out of mar-a-lago. >> new york, even as another case involving the assets of the trump organization and family. and then there's the georgia case. what is your sense of those other issues that he's up against and what they will mean in light of this bain, what many consider the least important of the things that he faces? >> well, it strikes me that the georgia cases is probably the most serious one for him. i'm not a i think. the public does seem to be warming to the idea that january 6 was a big problem for the country. so that gives me some hope. and there is some, you know, there's a pretty clear cut. what seems to be pretty clear cut evidence about wrongdoing. there. so i of the rest of the remaining legal problems that are out there for him. i think charges the most serious and we are the very beginning of the first of several cases to come. >> even among trump loyalist, you think as this progresses, we get through this case in the next ones are filed. then there's another booking and then another one is, you know, as we go through more of the 80's, you think there's going to be a trump fatigue at some at some point, even among the loyalist? >> it's but but here's here's how that might look. it might look like the thing i've been waiting for, which is to see his numbers start to happening. but what is happening when you look at listen to focus groups of people who voted for him twice. what a start to describe is something actually familiar with. and that is they say, oh, my loyalty hasn't changed. i still support his agenda. but i do think other people might not. so people start to attribute hesitancy to others. and then they say so i think it might be smarter. republicans picked someone else so we might see more of that take hold if we do that for me. that's a clue that his support is eroding. >> town a crane. thank you for helping us sort through some of this. i'm sure we'll speak with you again in the coming days. thanks, donna. thanks to do. >> other news tonight was another win for the oakland a's for not talking about on the field. we're talking about in court judge ruled against a challenge to the environmental impact report for that new stadium kron four's alice local monae and is here with reaction from the team. >> and from the oakland mayor ella and ken, this is a significant legal victory for the howard terminal ballpark project. >> and a san francisco apple,i it court ruled in the team's favor regarding an environmental review of the project. meaning they agree with the assessment that the new stadium would have limited impact to air and water pollution. the unanimous decision is in opposition to a lawsuit by the coalition of port workers, truckers and cargo terminal operators called east oakland stadium alliance. they filed that lawsuit last year claiming the city did not adequately studied the project, adverse impact. oakland mayor sheng tao also hailed today's decision, though, saying what a way

donna brazil. alex burns, new york times national reporter. and our spokesperson now and abc contributor. donna. i am going to go straight to you. i don't know if you watched it but you heard of donald trump last night saying the pledge of allegiance and the january 6th prisoners on tape singing the national an testimony. it was a really a look back and >> first of all, i watched it. from 6:00 p.m. until 7:45 p.m. i watched it. of course, look, donald trump yesterday played the victim card. he played all of his grievances of the best of donald trump of a little sprinkling of what he's been talking about lately, i am being prosecuted, come to my defense, i need your help. whole thing with the fingers and the hands. it is despicable what he's doing. donald trump is a leading front runner in the republican primary. leading front runner. there is no one close to him. although governor desantis tried to catch up but he's the front runner. it should be condemned by everyone, there's no place in america of what he's projecting of these upcoming court cases. >> terry? >> donald trump in 2015 was running at the changed candidate and he was not tied to any records. he was able to say whatever he wanted. that was the different than the 2023 trump we are seeing. you are seeing desantis pursuing a different strategy than what we saw of the 2016 candidate. the 2016, every candidate was trying to be that person who would be up against trump. you don't have that this time because of the dynamic with trump and desantis really turned into a bit of a binary race, it looks like the hillary clinton and barack obama primary from 2008 in some ways where you have the changed candidate now is desantis. not allowing donald trump to flank him on any issues but trying to draw that contrast as we saw that he's the winner and donald trump has lost so many of these recrept races. >> alex, desantis has not announced yet. >> i think to sarah's point of the 2008 comparison, barack obama had been in the race for more than a month. when you start off behind a universally known candidate, you got to get in the ring. we hear more and more from republicans certainly and washington of this anxiety of this window right after the midterm elections where it was a totally mainstream and widely discussed view in the republican party that donald trump blew it in 2022 and maybe it was time for somebody else and that window is not that it is closed, but it may be a little bit narrower three or four months ago. when desantis gets in, it may be a sli fight eight or 12 weeks ago. >> let's go back to florida here. he announced of the expansion of the controversial law "don't say gay" to all grades now. >> is that going to help him? >> this is a fight he's intentionally picking. he wants to see the friendly media and he wants to get on fox news. that's how he raised his profiles away from other challengers. his position on ukraine is one that he had to walk back over the last couple of weeks and created some daylight for other candidates, folks like nikki haley or mike pence trying to take a slice from him. desantis is doing a careful dance before he gets in the the race trying to speak at the maga base of donald trump. donald trump is a values driven candidate. he's not going to calibrate braced on what he thinks he has to try to get around the base with. other candidates pulling from desantis in a different way that we see him being on the defensive of in the last couple of weeks. that speaks to alice's point of the growing window of nervousness and he may have missed it. >> these cultural issues is a good thing for republicans? it didn't help him in the midterms? >> you can argue that in fact the school issues and the crime issues were incredibly effective. in 2022, you didn't see it work for those candidates that made it much more about revisiting the 2020 election, much more about donald trump. so, i am not sure we quite know how the issues actually will fair with candidates who are pursuing them like a glenn youngkin. i think desantis is threading those needles really well. donald trump is the prohibited front runner the polling. the national polling does not matter. what's going to matter if donald trump loses big in iowa and goes to new hampshire and can't hold on, this whole thing is totally different. >> let's not leave out biden here. what he's doing and angering several democrat and moving to the center. >> the decision at dc is terrible. on immigration and some of the other -- >> new oil drilling. >> and trying to make sure the united states remain competitive and we can produce our own petroleum and he blocked off a lot of federal lands for conservation efforts. joe biden will start to invest in an america tour where he's going to spend the next two or three weeks along with members his cabinet, the vice president when she returns from africa, they'll talk to people of anxieties and concerns that everyday americans have. this is the republicans going through another round of silly season. to begin to, you know, basically outlaw drag queens, they had somebody going to a quote on quote, drag queen to see if they are a drag queen. if you want to learn how to dance, come to my house. desantis is running on a 1950s america, not a 2050 america. the america the future. i think joe biden will have a real good advantage going into 2024. >> talk about joe biden, what do you see? >> i think he's doing his best to claim that center ground. people close to the president say he's always more of a that's true. he did an awesome job cranking the fog machine. now, he's facing a divided congress and emboldened in some way a republican party certainly on the hill. he's looking at a fight for reelection. certainly not going to be easy assuming that he does run. he's trying to minimize his political vulnerabilities on energy and immigration and crime. the risk to republicans here, martha, donnatalking about the virginia election in 2021. what worked well for glenn youngkin was tapping into families and education at the height of the pandemic and their fears about crime. when you are talking about drag queens and sort of specifically changing school curriculum choices, i am not sure if that speaks to parents the families in the political middle. i am quite sure it does not in the same way that the youngkin campaign did in 2021. the risk of the gop is you are spending time on this niche of internet-right wing issue while joe biden is minimizing his political vulnerability. >> there is a difference. the glen youngkin was thinking of the election in virginia and donald trump were thinking of the republicans for the primary. we have seen those internet cultural war pick or choose your grievance issues really rise to the you see that reflected in all the candidates language. not just donald trump, not just ron desantis but when nikki haley and mike or even tim scott, that's really

donna and barbara, thanks fo being with me this evening and i'll start with yo donna, in terms of what seem to be unusual to me at least and on its face. is this notion that the person that is under investigation ha his affiliates, paying for the council of other people who ma be important witnesses in that very same investigation. is that unusual, and if so what does it suggest to you? >> it's not a typical, and it' not inherently nefarious you see third parties paying all the time legal fees for witnesses o defendants it could be apparent, it could be accompanied which is arm -- to identify one other director or officers. here as you pointed out in you introduction, it's more akin t a mob boss paying for th underlings so that they'll fal into line. we saw that and really excruciating detail with cassidy hutchinson's testimony there is now an ethics complaint against former attorney and there i think that approac is criminality it certainly - attorneys ethical duty t represent the interests of his client in that case. or certainly it appears that way from the testimony we've heard. >> is there anything to be don in this situation, we know cassidy hutchinson's eventuall has new council. and that's when she became infinitely more forthcomin that the committee is there anything that can b done to encourage witnesses no to use certain counsel >> when, if it's a time criminal prosecutions brought. the prosecutors will likel request, and the judge wil surely grant a hearing that will cast the loyalties essentially of that person's attorney and a judge may excuse tha attorney, in appoint one for that witness in the event that the judg finds that there is undu pressures being mounted either a carrot or a stick on behal of the witness >> barb, i want to ask you the subpoena dragnet that's fallen over mar-a-lago, is it surprising to you that - was a lot of people thought th mar-a-lago case, we were tol from reporting in th washington post last fall, charging decisions wer imminent before the specia counsel was brought into this, does it suggest to you tha this investigation is going to go on, much longer how do you read the subpoenain of new witnesses at this stage of the game? >>, yeah it's difficult to know, alex what's going on but i can imagine some prosecutors have a different perspective o how much information they want to lock in before a case goe to trial i can understand why jack smit might want to talk to all th people who work at mar-a-lag and might have some exposure t the facts that occurred here even if he doesn't want to cal those people as witnesses, ultimately, a it may be useful to lock them into the stor now. , so they can't be used as defense witnesses an neutralize the story by lockin them in now, what you don' want to happen is to charg donald trump now, the case goe to trial, you think you have a solid case and then there is a dramatic moment where th courtroom door burris open, an some butler who worked a mar-a-lago comes in and says i'm the one who stash th documents somewhere. i forgot to mention at all this time by interviewing everybody that had access to that, place you might learn something ne but it seems to be more likely that you're just walking i people to avoid having the become defense witnesses dow the road >> it's fascinating. it's effectively, each - insurance policy,? write the feds, the doj ar saying we're gonna neutraliz you as a defense meant b calling all of you in, maybe trying to do their own form of insurance by having counsel, they're paid for council are present these witnesses. is that's what's happening here? >> i don't want to make an accusations about what the trump lawyers may or may not b doing, as danya, said there is an ethical duty by a lawyer to represent a client in thei best interest. and if they believe that there is some conflict they're supposed to get themselves out of that situation. , so a client can have zealous representation,. i don't know if it's going, on all we heard from cassid hutchinson about her representation does sugges that it might be part of the memo that donald trump engages in but as a prosecutor you just want to buttoned down anything where there might be a littl escape valve so there's no way out once you bring your case >> surely, and who knows wha those lawyers are doing with their clients. the fact that trump affiliated super pacs are paying for th means that somehow trump mus think there's some skin in the game in terms of having hi folks play for their counsel he's not known to be a prolifically generous presen bubble set that side for a minute evan corcoran, the crim far exception, and the fac that we now know with th pacific sort of incident is, a phone call between trump and his lawyer on the very same da that the doj wants to subpoena this video which ends up being pretty meaningful to this investigation. what do you think of the cas the doj is trying to lay out here >> again, not sure - >> i'll go to donna first, and then i absolutely want to hear what you have to say, mob. >> i want to hear what she has to say as well it sounds like they're making strong argument, and according to reports we may have a decision from the district court as soon as tomorrow. we'll see what the judge thanks it sounds like a stron argument, and in that event, mister clerk or in will have t testify, i have to provide benevolence and testimony bu could indeed incriminate his client it may very well be that - mediately peeled, it runs up and down the circuit it's certainly the m. o. in trump world so, it might be that the testimony isn't coming ver quickly. but it will come >> do you read anything,, dany the crime fraud exception that jackson it's trying to go at trump lawyers on crime fraud does it seem ambitious to?

they're like, yes she is. >> blood at the mouth. >> so, we did a quick protective sweep of the house to make sure no one else was inside. and then we came out lock the door, that we kept the scene pristine for the crime scene and detectives to arrive. >> investigators were there within minutes. one of the most one of them was reuben mankin of the texas rangers. >> my initial observation was, just from coming through the four, was that it was a clean house. then i made a beeline for the laundry room -- >> wait one second, clean meaning it looked like she did interrupt a burglary? >> that's correct. that's correct. >> there was no stuff missing. drawers pulled open. >> right. >> something else was telling. on the floor of the garage was anna's purse, which still held $300. and nothing else seem to be missing except anna's car. ranger mankin surveyed this scene with a lead detective brian tschudy. >> that's when we notice shell casings in the garage. multiple shell casings. >> the casings easily identified the murder weapon as a 22. and a careful look at anna's body told them a little more. >> i observed her to be lying on her back. she was heavily clothes. still wearing her jacket and a couple of scarves. i saw what appeared to be a bullet hole in her scarf. that was wrapped around her neck. and that's when i observed the hole in her neck. >> so, she was killed presumably by somebody who got into the house and waited for her in the garage? >> possibly. or, she opens the garage door. she pulls in and somebody runs in their, shoots and kills her, and takes the car. >> all right. so an alert goes out for the car, right? >> correct, sir. >> there were so many scenarios under consideration. this didn't feel like a burglary or a carjacking. the medical examiner outlined anna's cause of death. >> he was able to document that she had been shot six times. >> they found a seventh bullet in anna's clothing that hadn't penetrated. in fact, it fell on to the examining table. the deadly bullet wounds were close together. someone had shot her in the chest and then in the back. so, this is somebody who was probably not too far away from her. >> correct. >> fired a bunch of times. >> correct. >> the trajectory of the bullet suggested anna had gotten out of her car, perhaps seen her assailant, and started to turn away. >> she doesn't go down with those three rounds and that's where you have the following barrage of bullets on her back. that are square in her back. >> so if we startle you, the door is right there, and you go to turn to run through that door, you're going to catch it left to right. >> there was something else. and it was at the very least, odd. anna may have been shot seven times. but police found 11 shell casings at the scene. and no sign of the other four bullets. did crime scene ever find the other slugs in the walls, or the floor, or anywhere? >> no, sir. >> that's kind of weird. >> yeah. >> right? >> yes, sir. >> so, now, detectives turn their attention to the circle of people who knew and loved anna moses. among them, could be a clue. perhaps even a suspect. and detectives would begin with the person she loved the most. >> coming up -- police tell anna's son igor about his mother's murder. and his response is strange. >> is she in one piece? >> is she in one piece? have you ever heard anybody respond like that. >> never. >> he's a person of interest. >> igor being the beneficiary of a large sum of cash. yes, that somebody to look at. >> when "dateline" continues. as a business owner, your bottom line is always top of mind. so start saving by switching to the mobile service designed for small business: comcast business mobile. flexible data plans mean you can get unlimited data or pay by the gig. all on the most reliable 5g network. with no line activation fees or term contracts. saving you up to 60% a year. and it's only available to comcast business internet customers. so boost your bottom line by switching today. comcast business. powering possibilities. >> the bullet riddled body of 43 year old anna moses upper body found in a garage in dallas. now the sergeant had the difficult task of breaking the news to her only child. >> we needed to notify the sun. >> he was at the curb. >> he was at the curb. we could not tell him anything. >> after helping please get into the house, 20 year old eager moses was waiting outside sitting in a car. >> what's your name. >> sergeants body cam was switched on but -- his words however were direct and to the point. >> there's really no easy way to tell you what's going on. okay? your mom is deceased. >> right. >> okay? so right now, we've got to do a lot of things to try to figure out how -- why -- what's going on. >> you've done that kind of notification before? >> a lot. >> they're not pleasant. >> no. worst thing to do. >> was this one different? . it was different in the response that i received. >> it was basically no response according to reim. just a blank stare. >> did he cry? was emotional? >> not at all. >> their conversation, if that's what it was, continues. >> is your mom's car usually here? >> yes. >> is it not? here >> no. >> that's one eager as the question that came totally left field. >> where they're any? keys -- is she in one piece? >> have you ever heard anyone respond like that to death notification? >> no. >> but it wouldn't be the only response leaving sergeant reim scratching his head. >> so talk to the detective -- >> i do have class even though i know that's kind of insignificant at the moment. >> okay -- i think you can get an excuse for that. >> he never made it's a class that night. and steady he was brought here to the police department for a formal interview. investigators had already been briefed about his odd reactions at the news of his mother step. later he would tell his friends he didn't want to have a funeral for her. and also this, that whoever had killed anna moses should be forgiven. >> he said that he was in class of the day his mother was murdered. but investigators were wondering about his unusual reaction. especially when they learned right after the interview, that very same night, igor was in the gym playing a game called wally ball with friends. he, by no means, seem to be grieving. >> it really added us -- ed let us to dig a little deeper into it was going on. >> this is hours after his mother was founded? >> correct. >> and when detectives did dig deeper, they discovered what could've been a motive. i anna had a 750,000 dollar insurance policy with a single beneficiary, igor. >> he's a person of interest, hemmed being the unique beneficiary for a large sum of cash, yes we're gonna look at that. >> but donnawful news on facebook posted by another friend. >> that must of been terribly shocking. >> completely! completely, because i didn't know anyone who wished anna any harm. nobody! i just, i couldn't imagine it! who didn't love anna. >> and who would hate her? >> exactly. >> donna said she could not picture igor as the killer. >> i just know igor is not capable of murder. >> and another friend remembered how close igor and anna we're. >> she just adored him, he was the center of her life. >> but it he's she say about her son? >> she said i want him to pursue his passion, which is music. and she would always go to his concerts. >> well igor played guitar in a christian rock band, with two big interests, music and religion. he was studying stick pathology at the university of dallas. the same school where his mother worked. >> when he was -- >> she is in college and she's doing his laundry?

donna edwards back, joining our conversation is -- former republican and former political consultant, also the host of the michael singleton show on sirius x m. has a nice ring to it as well. hey, donna, when we're looking at this reporting, is this showing, we will talk about desantis, that he has had a couple of difficult few weeks and there has been some questions about his social skills, he's had to feel the attacks from donald trump, u.s. support from ukraine. his the governor still putting on his training wheels? or is he just not built for this? >> well, i think the jury is still out on that. the real problem that ron desantis has is that he can't decide who he wants to be when he grows up as a candidate. does he want to be a trump lookalike, or does he want to carve a different path? and one of the things that he is finding is that if he gets down there in the mud with donald trump, donald trump is likely to come out clean. and ron desantis will have mud all over him. so i think that this is going to be a really important period. ron desantis has not been tested on a national stage. and there have been several of these missteps, ukraine was a misstep, comments that, and this is gonna be very problematic for donors if this continues. so has a long way to go before he can prove that he can run a 50 state campaign and take this away from donald trump. and his poll numbers are sinking. >> well, michael, go back to that possibility. is it 24 or 28, and in either case, is this more about trump not being strong? if it's 28, that means that trump wins in this coming election, and is not strong enough to win in 28. or isn't just not gonna win in 24. >> yeah, look, i think whether or not trump wins in 24 or not, richard, i think 28 gives ron desantis a better possibility for the republican party to move on from donald trump. for two reasons. if trump wins, his base will be happy. the republican base will be happy. if he loses, the base will be able to say you know, we give him another shot, in 28 trump will be significantly older. so there are a couple of factors i think -- time to select a new leader to lead the party forward. with that said, i think desantis, along with other republican candidates, have a serious problem. how do you defeat donald trump at this primary? if you attack him, your members will go down. if you don't engage him at all, you may be viewed as too weak to gain the nominees for the party. so it appears, for the most part, that donald trump will indeed become the nominee of the republican party. i was advising the governor of florida, richard, i'd say wait until 28. you still more time to get out there more so that the american people and particular republican voters and swing voters, can actually see what ron desantis's views are on many issues. not rhonda santas -- donald trump. >> you heard it donnanevitable, i guess. -- donald trump is at least. let's gauge that university poll you're alluding to. and desantis's support dropping over the last month. why do you think that is happening? when you look at these numbers. is it because of the topics we were discussing? >> well, donald trump on this stage takes up all of the oxygen. and so to the extent it makes sense that ron desantis has been able to insert himself in the conversation, it has all been about responding to trump. i think inevitably, when the base voters take a look at the -- trump is going to mean by a -- he's gonna be my guy until he's not my guy. and ron desantis is not my guy. so i think these polls are early but they are adjudication that it is headed in the wrong direction for ron desantis. >> let's just log on to the fire at this -- tonight and they were reporting on a couple of polls for public opinion strategies from march 21st to the 23rd. but it actually shows that desantis with some early state strength in y

donna edwards joins us. and charlie sykes is back. he's editor at large of the bulwark. donna and charlie are msnbc contributors. i want to start with the latest news, which is that hope hicks joins kellyanne conway, who was with alvin bragg's office twice two days last week. this has just broken in the "new york times." let me read this to you, pete strzok. "hope hicks, a trusted aide to donald trump during his 2016 presidential campaign, met with the manhattan district attorney's office on monday the latest in a string of witnesses to be questioned by prosecutors as they investigate the former president's involvement in paying hush money to a porn star. the aappearance of ms. hicks, who was seen walking into the manhattan d.a.'s office in the early afternoon, represents the latest sign that the prosecutors are in the final stages of their investigation. she is at least the seventh witness to meet with prosecutors since the d.a. alvin bragg convened a grand jury in january to hear evidence in the case. last week another prominent member of the 2016 campaign, kellyanne conway, testified before the grand jury, according to two people with knowledge of the matter. two employees of trump's company have also testified, as have two former executives of the national enquirer, who helped broker the hush money arrangement, as well as a lawyer for the porn star stormy daniels." pete, as an investigator what is the appearance in as many as three days of two very senior former trump campaign officials say to you? >> well, it tells me this investigation is moving at a fairly rapid clip. i mean, you've got to keep in mind as a d.a., as an investigator when you bring somebody in to the grand jury or in for an interview that isn't something you do sort of off the cuff. that's something that you're going to sit down, you're going to cut" come up with an interview strategy, you're going to come up with a list of questions you're going to ask, you're going to come up with the information you know and don't know. this isn't something you sit down one night is it & decide you're going to call someone in the next day. so the fact they've had several people and not just random folks but people who were in the intimate inner circle of trump surrounding the decisions and the actions that may or may not have been taken about this hush money payment tells me that the investigation out of new york is in a fairly advanced stage and that they're very serious in putting in a tremendous amount of work into getting ready and actually conducting these interviews as part of their investigation. >> so harry, "the new york times" again is first out with this reporting. let me read a little bit more of their story. it says that as the spokeswoman for mr. trump's 2016 campaign hope hicks was responsible for damage control on a number of issues, a role that has attracted the interest of various investigators over the years. in court records from mr. cohen's federal case the fbi noted that she participated in a phone call with mr. trump and mr. cohen on the same day they learned that ms. daniels wanted money for her story. ms. hicks also spoke with mr. cohen the day after he wired the $130,000 to ms. daniels' lawyer. prosecutors are likely to want to know whether she was privy to any conversations or other information about mr. cohen's dealings with ms. daniels' representatives or how the hush money payment was arranged. hicks, however, has testified before congress that she was not present for any conversation in which cohen and trump discussed the hush money. she has also said that she was unaware of the deal with ms. daniels at the time it was arranged. an interesting tightrope i guess, that she was the fixer but wasn't aware of any of those conversations. what does she say to you as a witness? >> well, first, to back up pete, they know already, the watch-word as a prosecutor, you don't put her in until you know exactly what she's going to say and exactly how she's going to help. she's a little bit akin to cassidy hutchinson i'd say, nicolle, in that she is a solid witness with really no -- she won't be impeached. and remember, at the end of the administration she was really chagrined come january 6th. she thought this ruined everything including her own future job prospects. so whatever role she played, and apparently she spoke with mike michael cohen, who we have reason to believe has also been in front of the grand jury, she's going to recite chapter and verse. they're moving ahead pretty expeditiously when they're already putting these people in the grand jury. >> and charlie sykes, the collision i guess with today's news is that trump over the weekend said i wouldn't even think about leaving when he was asked about the presidential race. here -- i just want to show our work a little bit. this is chris christie, one-time very close outside adviser to donald trump, on a conservative radio show saying you can't do this, you cannot run for president if you're about to be indicted. listen. >> can someone run for office and do debates and give interviews when they're under indictment and not make their situation worse? >> no. i think it's impossible for them not to make the situation worse. although what i would say to you, hugh, is given the limited nature of the new york case i don't know that he's going to be getting a whole lot of questions about the stormy daniels situation anyway. i think it's something that seems to be a pretty cut and dry situation. and i don't know that they'd make his situation markedly worse. but every time you open your mouth, as you know, in this kind of situation you run the real risk of it adding complications to a case where you could lose your liberty. and that's why defense lawyers always rightfully tell their clients to keep quiet, because you don't need to make that situation more complicated because your liberty is at stake. >> again, charlie, i don't want to put that out there because i care about donald trump's political fate but i do think we can't cover trump like a normal candidate, right? he is a candidate for the republican primary. i think you and i, charlie, see the polls pretty clearly. he is the front-runner. barring anything extraordinary politically. he's the front-runner. and he could be indicted. >> yes. he is the front-runner, and he could be indicted, and it might actually boost his standing in the polls. chris christie is right about the normal rules about a defendant in a case like this, but the normal rules clearly do not apply to donald trump. we ought to have learned that over the last six or seven years. so when he stands up there and says of course i'm going to stay in the race, because first of all he has the bully pulpit that he can use to push back against the prosecutors. so his strategy's going to be delay, deflect, and attack. and he is convinced, based on past experience, that you will have the republican base rally around him and he's convinced that his fellow republican candidate will never attack him on this. and this is the big question. will any other republican make the case that chris christie just made? will any other republican say we can't have a candidate for president of the united states who is facing indictment and possible -- and possible prison? because you know what the blowback would be. i think a lot of these guys think that they can go around donald trump, that they can run for president without saying his name, without bringing up january 6th, without bringing up the indictments, and i think that's incredibly naive, but that is what donald trump is counting on and he may not be wrong. >> i don't want to accept that at face value. i think you're accurate as a predictive measure. but donnae on signal help me out. donald trump is setting up a more catastrophic domestic extremism situation than what he put in motion with january 6th. and if you're going to sit back and watch and see what kind of grip he still has on your base, you have another thing coming. you will have blood on your hands. if republicans sit back. paul ryan sends pearl-clutching e-mails to others at fox and says oh, this is dangerous. where are these people? they know how dangerous it is. officer gonell can tell them how dangerous it is. so can officer harry dunn and michael fanone. the those who lost their lives. so can the mother of ashleigh babbit. we are sleepwalking toward another disaster. >> i think we are. we all know donald trump makes a lousy client he doesn't listen to his lawyers, he will continue to talk. and his whole shtick, and you heard it over the weekend at the cpac convention, his whole thing is about grievance, about retribution, about stirring up that base so that they are there to
