council woman andrea jenkins, thank you very much. i appreciate your time. thank you and be safe. >>> joining me is loretta lynch, who served as u.s. attorney general under barack obama. i'll ask you the same question. the idea that a police officer could have that much of a jacket essentially, that many misconduct complaints including using his weapon in that way and still be a practicing police officer, what do you make of that? >> well, thank you, joy, and thank you for focusing on this important issue. you raise a really important issue in the context of the history of this police officer and possibly the other officers who were with him. we have now seen an arrest in this case. we have seen the horrific video several times over of mr. floyd literally losing his life. that image will never be erased either from us or from his family. we have to think about that. but this issue -- and the reason why you see so much anger, so much frustration is because it's really about more than just this one case. it is about how we police in america. whom do we allow t

>> i don't -- i think he was referring to clay jenkins, you know, the county commissioner.t thing i was going to do, honestly, because the way that he has acted during this entire thing is just ridiculous, so i just couldn't. i couldn't bring myself to apologize. >> sean: i admire your courage, how was jail? i'm sure it wasn't pleasant. i heard this coronavirus in that jail. >> it's definitely not pleasant. but fortunately, i had a cell by myself. it had a rec area that had under individuals in there, but the worst thing was that i didn't get to call anybody when i got there the first night, been that's kind of scary because i have, you know, daughter that just turned 17 at home and if my boyfriend wasn't there too, you know, talk to her anything, i wouldn't have come home and she wouldn't have known where i was. >> sean: that's pretty scary. tell us why you decided to open and what measures for safety did you take? >> well, it wasn't -- we were shut down march 22nd, so it had been several weeks that, you know, the government was kind of telling us the money was comingn and

so, let's discuss with andrea jenkins, the vice president of the minneapolis city council.hank you very much council woman jenkins. we appreciate you joining us on cnn. >> hello don. hi. just to be clear, i'm the vice president. thank you for inviting me. >> thank you. we appreciate having you on. when you saw this video, the sheer inhumanity of that policemen kneeling on george floyd's neck and him pleading for his life, pleading for his mother, what was your reaction in that moment? >> all right. so, i saw the video about 1:00 a.m. on tuesday morning, and i couldn't -- i couldn't go back to sleep. it was a "here we go again" moment. it was clearly another -- yet another -- hash tag moment. and as you know, don, you know, i am an african-american transgender woman. so, not only do i see these images on social media of black and brown men and women being killed by state violence but also have to see trans identified, mostly black women, who have been brutalized and murdered by the state or if not by the state, it has been deemed sanctioned by the state. so, you know, the tr

sanjay and i spoke with the university president, father john jenkins, earlier. >> father jenkins, toent of a notre dame student, who asks, you know, how are you going to keep my son or my daughter safe this fall, what do you say? >> you know, we're going to do everything we can. and we believe consulting with the very best medical advice and working, over the next three months, to get all the details right. we can keep your son or daughter safe here, on campus. we would not make that decision if we were not confident about that. we value the on-campus experience deeply. we care about the education. these students receive. so i think those two, combined, led us to this decision. and, as i say, the safety of these young men and women are -- are our highest priority. >> father, you know, everyone talks about testing. testing is going to be necessary. it's going to be a major component, from what i've read of your plan. do you have the capacity to test, you know, the student body? we're talking more than 12,000 people, obviously faculty as well. is that -- is that a realistic, at this po

>> harris: griff jenkins, thank you very much. appreciate it.to bring in former arkansas governor and fox news contributor mike dubke a dull mike huckabee. great to see you, governor i watch that life with the president earlier, and he did say that if he see something going south in terms of how people are social distancing in certain areas, that he's going to snap back with a response. we've seen him do that before. >> and i think that's exactly what we ought to be doing. we took a draconian action as a nation. frankly, everybody did. the whole world. because we really weren't sure just how fast this virus would begin to move. now we have a much better picture of it. we have seen that mitigation works. i think the president's right, open the economy back up. let governors make the decisions. local, mayors, county officials. if there does spring up another problem, address the problem. but don't shut everybody. 30 million people out of work, because we know what that's doing to us. it's destroying not just the economy, but the spirit and the wil

joining us on the phone is andrea jenkins who is vice president of the minneapolis city council. we appreciate you taking the time to talk to us, and i just have to ask you as you watch the night unfold, as you see these pictures, as you see parts of your beloved city on fire, what goes through your mind? >> i'm -- i'm really heartbroken, chris. you know, i think it's really interesting that right across the street from where ali is standing, there's a restaurant called nuevo rodeo. george floyd worked at that restaurant. so did officer chauvin. they were both bouncers at that restaurant for 17 years. so officer chauvin, he knew george. they were co-workers for a very long time. the question that i think you asked ali about, the press conference earlier, the fbi and the bca and the county attorney's office, i will say i believe that that absolutely played a role in the unrest that we are seeing tonight. it really -- it seemed as if none of these three agencies that are doing the investigation have really seen all the -- have seen the same things that we have been watching. in fac
