a lot of headlines yesterday saying that houston is back for business, houston is back online, but you key really to all of this is making sure that a phased reopening ensues. >> absolutely. right now, a lot of businesses are starting to reopen but in texas they are allowed to open up to 25% capacity and so it's a phased reopening, not where everything is reopened and back to normal. gillian: tell us quickly about the breakdown, what is back to normal first and what's coming down the pike next? >> right now it's retail stores, grocery stores have always been open, and movie theaters, basically most businesses are coming back online, not all of them, but most of them are coming back online at 25% capacity. gillian: now, chris, indiana, the state is becoming somewhat of a coronavirus hot spot lately, over 1,000 cases, nearly 900 people infected just at that one tyson meat plant. are you reconsidering the reopening guidelines at this point? >> yeah, of course. the tyson plant, it was toured on thursday and there are steps they're taking. the biggest thing that i think we really need to ki

if i were to say charles hamilton houston right now, 95% of the people who are listening who know charles hamilton houston, yeah, he's a lawyer. and that is exactly who he was. he trained one-third of the african-american lawyers at howard law school in 1940 and 1950 in america to include thurgood marshall. but he became a lawyer because he's an officer who served in world war i. he served in the 368th infantry regiment and because of the experience he had from the war, it was a horrible experience, he made his father's dream come true and his father was a lawyer and wanted him to become a lawyer. so charles hamilton houston finally decided to become a lawyer because of his experience in world war ii. so horace pippin, charles hamilton houston and i think we talked about a few others. so world war i was a transformative event for many reasons. so when we get to the point when we are setting and planting the seats for the movement, thurgood marshall writes when charles hamilton houston died in 1951, '52 or '53, he said we would not be where we are without charlie and referring to him. >> and we'll try to g

go through this again, and lastly what i will say, wolf, in the city of houston our numbers have been very modest. i mean 82 people, in the city of houston the fourth largest city that have died. that's relatively speaking, that is a very good number. i don't want us to erase what we've already done. >> let's hope those numbers go down at the same time. as you know the governor abbot's decision to reopen the entire state superceded local orders including your orders. what are you advising residents in houston to keep themselves safe under these conditions? >> the advice i give them is say, look, what we have done together. we've stayed at home, we've engaged in social distance [the put on the face covering and look at our numbers. the numbers reflect what we have done has worked. and let's not ignore that. just because somebody says that things are open that doesn't necessarily mean you have to walk in the door. just because certain businesses have opened doesn't mean you have to go in. just because you're allowed to do something you don't have to necessarily do it. think about your family members, your friends, your grandmother, your gr

houston are working to identify the woman who was driving that red suv you see on your screen. she was driving over the graves of veterans at houston's national cemetery on sunday. witnesses sayer had just ended and the woman seemed in a rush to leave. one witness says the woman drove over dozens of graves and did over $1,000 in damage. mostly to the sprinkler system. >> disturbing there. >>> there's a new lead prosecutor in the ahmaud arbery case. cobb county district attorney joyette holmes is the first to take on the role. arbery's family called for a change saying the first prosecutors mishandled the case. it took more than two months to make an arrest after the 25-year-old jogger was killed during an encounter with a father and son in brunswick. the suspects there claim they thought ahmaud arbery was a burglary suspect. the justice department is considering possible hate crime charges against those murder suspects, gregory and travis mcmichael. >>> in los angeles police have made an arrest in the death of a 25-year-old youtube star. reality tv tattoo artist daniel silva is facing murder charges after a car crash that killed corey la berry. the two had allegedly been at a

what would sam houston say about this if he were here today because your paperback is out now sam houstono avengers a great read. what do you think houston and the folks back in that era would think about this? >> you know what i'm amazed at i get kind of lucky when the tripoli pirates came out war on terror and that was the first war on terror. when andrew jackson came out president of the united states andrew jackson reminds me of me and that became a news story. this is all about freedom. you went to the texas for the opportunity not the guarantee of success. now talk about sam houston and others when they try to take liberty away, that's what got them to stand up and fight and come up with this unthinkable victory. that's actually not only happening in this country but happening in texas where they are telling people where to walk, what time to go out. you cannot work. and you have a barber stand up -- salon owner stand up and say i have the right to work. i would rather go to jail than have my livelihood taken away. those are all the things that made texas texas and made america amer

houston. spent 23 years on the houston police force as a former city councilman there. you were at a vigil this morning. tell us about what you experienced. >> yes. well, first, let me just say that my heart and thoughts and prayers are with george floyd, his family, and his friends. the vigil that i was at today was in the third ward community where george grew up and attended high school over at jack yates high school. there was a lot of folks there wearing the jack yates t-shirt. they came together and the conversation at the time that i had and shared was recognizing that vigils and protests are the best possible ways to affect change in any system or situation that you don't agree with. however, having been a kid who saw the last riot in houston moody park riot, i know that rioting, burning vehicles, destroying property, flinging bottles, is not the way to affect change. it's just not the way. eric: you've been on the force for more than two decades and you're a top government official. the governor of minnesota is blaming outside agitators, the president's saying antifa and he calls it the radical left. he says authorities in minnesota should get tougher. why does this spiral out of control in this way? do you agree with that and what is the message to tamp it down and stop it. >> i would just say first that agitators have been a part of these situations, just as i mentioned the riot that i was in or saw, rather, when i was a kid, did have agitators, outside agitators that had nothing to do with the community, that were there to incite further unrest. so we know that that's a part. they are getting much more sophisticated. they are using technology. they are using intelligence to get their way. and that's why at this time of
