special agents griner and bailey put their live on the line. they saved countless others. there's no other way to put it, but they are heroeses. yesterday could have ended with many deaths. they ran out in to draw the fire away from the members. this attacker moved down the third base line to home base, where the majority of the players were sitting in the dugout of the first base, laying on the ground. even a 10-year-old son who they would hover over the top of. he would try to make his movement there. krystal had already been wounded. but as i talked to the agents yesterday in the hospital, when you spoke to them they would say they wished they could even do more. drawing the fire away, saving so many lives. we will be forever grateful for their courageous actions and to all our capitol police who are truly the best in the business. as we end this week, i do want to take the time to thank our men and women in uniform and keep them all in our prayers for their recovery. yesterday i spent a large portion of the day at the hospital. yes, seeing the agents and seeing and pra
