molly heard a loud explosion. frame she got up and went to the window and looked in the direction of her sister's house. all she could see was an orange ball rising into the sky. it looked as if the sun had burst violently into the night. there is no longer house there. someone had planted a bomb underneath it, kelly molly sister, her sister's husband, and the 18-year-old made who left behind to young children. molly and many osage campaign for justice, to pursue the killers. because of prejudice the white authorities often neglected the crimes because the victims were native americans. what is more, one of the things that shocks me is how crops much of the justice system was and how lawless the country was in the 1920s. especially in this remnant of the frontier. many lawmen had very little training. it was often easy if you are powerful to buy off a lawman. molly and other osage turn to private investigators. they had a much larger prominent role in society back then. they often had to fill this void. the proble

mollie: it's a party-wide issue. and in newsrooms these views that the democrats have don't seem so radical whether they are on abortions or how to treat christians in the public square, these issues don't resonate very well. it's easier to focus on pelosi and it would be nice for the media to help facilitate some of that conversation. howie: cnn tries to link a trump howie: the white house held an off-camera briefing and barred the media from using the audio. >> the white house press secretary is getting to a point where he's kind of useless. if he can't come out and answer the questions and they are not going to do this on camera or audio, why are we even having these briefings or gaggles in the first place. howie: ed henry, good morning. jim acosta went after sean spicer in the white house. is acosta crossing a line here? ed: i think he is. i think everybody is overhe acting to this -- overreacting to this whole issue. but the credibility of correspondents as well. yesterday morning i mentioned jim acosta is a fri

molly, what's the situation there right now?porter: good morning, guys, just a couple block as way from the building. helicopters still everhead. still see firefighters fighting the fire. but this building is now, five hours later, 5 1/2 hours later now completely charred. so there aren't actually flames coming out any more. we can start to see day light through the charred building. of course if anyone, was still inside, kendis, diane, very clear that no one has survived. we have been talking to a lot of residents here who say they no for a fact that families were still trapped on the upper levels. spoke with a young man, kennedy, who said immediately after the fire he came right outside to take videos. to see what was going on. there was a family of four on the 20th floor. waving flash lights. screaming outside. for some one any one to rescue them t of course with all debris, with the flames engulfing the building no way firefighters could get up and save them. he says they disappeared as soon as those flames got up thut floor

lou: mollie, your thoughts? mollie: this is an imperfect bill.lot of stuff consequence conservatives would be happy with. if you told them years ago you could get rid of the individual employer mandate and deal with the problems of obamacare down the road, i think most tons * would be happy to take that. at the same time this is not a repeal bill, and republican voters were promised they would replease and replace obamacare. but it provide more money up front and slows down the changes on the medicaid expansion. so that's something moderates can get on board with. i think it's a smart bill. but as a conservative, it's not what i dreamed of. lou: i have to believe the republicans that crying chuck schumer is praying this bill keeps moving and the republicans don't throw up their hand and leave the democrats stuck with obamacare. i think as the president correctly said, that bill, that law, obamacare, is owned by the democratic party and it will tear them up in the 2018 elections. mark: i'm watching chuck schumer speak. he said i just read the crue

capitol hill reporter from the hill, molly hooper. molly, good to talk to you this morning. what are the biggest concerns you're hearing about from members of the senate republican caucus? >> you're hearing people like senator mccain, lisa murkowski, mike lee complain about the fact they don't know what's in the bill. at the same time, mitch mcconnell is saying, listen, we've been talking about this for seven years. and what he plans on doing in 0 order to get the bill to the floor is essentially to bring up the house-passed bill, the american health care act. and the senate republican leader will offer the gop version as an amendment to that. so, you know it limits the amount of debate they can have on that measure because it's going to be considered under special budgetary rules. only 20 hours of detail. even though republicans and democrats can offer, quote, unlimited amendments it has toe fit within that 20-hour time frame. and that leaves a lot of republicans uncomfortable, especially the moderates. >> molly, let me ask you about paul ryan, he addressed criticism that t

molly: welcome back. upper 70's, low 80's and hagerstown. we are goodbye to the heat as we go through the day tomorrow. still a mild night, mid 60's, low 70's, partly cloudy skies. a few thunderstorms earlier this evening mainly west of the d.c. area that have fizzled out. the daytime highs the past couple days, low 90's. certainly a well-deserved break coming into the area. temperatures pretty close to where they should be this time of year, low to mid 80's, a mixture of sunshine and clouds. through the afternoon and evening tomorrow, another round of showers and thunderstorms popping up off to the west, a slim thread of thunderstorms getting into the d.c. area. as we get ready for the weekend, father's day sunday, a lot of activities around town. on baseline, the nationals playing at the mets, but you can go to nationals park and enjoy brunch with dad. the temperatures back into the 90's. although we are catching a break from the the weekend. the extended forecast, 30% chance of showers and storms through this weekend. i don't think any da

molly looked everywhere for her.ter, anna was found in a ravine shot in the back of the head. it was the first hint that the family was being targeted. in just a few days, her mother became mysteriously sick. within two months -- within two months, she stopped breathing. evidence later suggested she had been poisoned. molly had a younger sister. she was so frightened by these murders, she moved closer to molly. one night at 3:00 in the morning, she heard a loud explosion. molly goes to the window of her house and she looks out in the direction of where her sister lived. all she could see was this large orange ball rising into the sky. it looked like the sun had burst. somebody planted in bomb under her sister's house. killing her sister, her sister's husband and a maid in the house. charlie: was it only this family? >> other families were systematically targeted. there were poisonings, shootings. one was given a poison. it causes the whole body to convulse as if with electricity and you slowly, and strangled while yo

mollie: this is the problem with the media coverage. we have stories about he leaked as early as april. he was somehow getting his word out to the "new york times." we have information that he gave:false testimony money when he said he never kept notes on a previous president. and jim barton wrote a book that referred to notes from james comey. but they are not being sceptical enough because they need to analyze what he's saying whether it's truthful or not truthful. juan: this narrative that has jim comey versus the president. this one leader of the free world. that's the president of the united states. james comey has a grudge. his credibility versus donald trump. you be the judge. mollie: intelligence officials selectively leaking information -- we have to deal with this whether the media are being responsible when they are receiving these leaks that make it seem like donald trump is under investigation for collusion with russia. howie: people leak all the time in washington, but comey always presented himself as by the book prosecut

molly had a younger sister. she was so frightened by these murders, she moved also to molly.at 3:00 in the morning, she heard a loud explosion. molly goes to the window of her house and she looks out in the direction of where her sister lived. all she could see was this large orange ball rising into the sky. it looked like the fun had burst. somebody planted in bomb under her sister's house. killing her sister, her sister's husband and a made in the house would let -- been left behind. other families were systematically targeted. there were poisonings, shootings. one was given a poison. it causes the whole body to convulse with electricity and you slowly, and strangled while you are conscious. those who try to catch the killers themselves were targeted. there was a lawyer or an attorney who was thrown off a train. he had told his wife that should anything happen to me, go to this hiding place where i hid the evidence. when the person got to that hiding spot, all of it had been cleared out. there was an oilman was founded -- friendly with the osage. he traveled to the district

abc's molly hunter has much more from london. molly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, diane. that's right. climb change is not the subject of partisan debate on this side of the pond. the paris accord is widely supported but president trump did speak with a number of leaders including british prime minister theresa may and all vowed to forge ahead without the u.s. this morning, global headlines taking aim at president trump. in germany, danke, donald, in france, good-bye, america. and here in the united kingdom from "the independent" america first, climate last. all reacting to the president's decision to remove the united states from the paris accord. an ambitious agreement from nearly 200 countries to fight climate change. many world leaders being blunt in their statements. the prime minister of belgium calling it a brutal act. former mexican president vicente fox saying he's declaring war on the planet itself and the united nations expressing its disappointment. >> it is crucial that the united states remains a leader

for more on this joining from us washington capitol hill reporter molly.e gave his own idea of how it could progress from here on out, hoping for a new agreement. he says in the next 72 hours if the cbo can start scoring during the july 4th recess. does that really sound feasible to you? >> no it's unclear. it depends on how much information mitch mcconnell has to order to turn the bill around. again, they're going to need 50 votes. 50 republican votes. can only afford to lose two. as you showed, the number of defectors increased buns it was clear this bill was not going to be going forward. mitch mcconnell, he's been taking the temperature of the individuals who are opposing it. and trying to find out ways that they can bring them on board. for example, rob portman and shelli moore capo, they have problems because they want more funds for the opioid addiction to be in there. 72 hours they will definitely be working with this both to see what they can do to bring more members on board. >> molly, this is a polarizing process as we saw in the house. republic

both mcconnell and ryan have been resisting him all of the way, mollie? >> i don't think that is quite fair. the problem is we did want to repeal obamacare that is why a lot of people were electing republicans to house and senate. but after many years of this entitlement program in place, there is not the same consensus about repealing obamacare, which is reflected in coalition have you that are governing, when mc-- mc-- lou: this sounds like a democratic analysis of circa 2012. >> that i would personal lik like it if they were actual to repeal obamacare, this might be the best bill you can get to keep conservatives can and moderates together, and there is not a lot of wiggle room with a small majority as mcconnell has, i think he is doing his best, he does need to be more responsive to concerns of people. but again the pressure should be on getting someone done, does not need to be perfect this time, get something done to fix failure of own oi ofo obamacare to last until next time they patch it again. lou: i have to say, every time i think of president s

trish: mollie, the ceasar play as well. your thoughts. mollie: even worse, some of these artists i don't think people take political advice from, is the political rhetoric coming from democratic politicians or leaders. one week after we saw what happened when people are unable to handle their disagreements civilly and they try to commit a mass assassination of republicans. it unless this environment we need temperature refocus and work together as citizens in this space, and that's not our seeing. it seems frustrating this type of rhetoric is not criticized as much as it should be by the peers of these people and and media outlets. hillary clinton said republicans are the party of death. and you have bernie sanders and elizabeth warren saying millions of people will die. trish: it seems to me, ned, take a look at this tweet she sent out a short time ago. she wrote, forget death panels, if republicans pass this bill, they are the death party. they are saying this at a time when representative scalise is just getting released from the hospi

stoddard, mollie hemingway. good evening. i white house victory. >> i think that's right.a win and a vindication for donald trump and the travel ban. it was also a win for the plane that are of the law. part of the reason why this was such a clear win for the white house is that they were on the right side of a constitutional legal argument. the president has plenipotentiary power terrae navigation -- immigration. the ninth circuit opinion, fourth circuit opinion were bad and political decisions. would have been a huge mass if the supreme court had not clarified that the president does have these powers and it did trim back certainly some of the more expansive ideas of quote what the ban is supposed to be. people from these countries can come in. they just need a good reason. >> bill: the courts in february and march. we were listening to them. >> these rulings were kind of ridiculous. they were going through donald trump's campaign tweets and try to ascertain deeper meaning. that was a bad precedent to set, this idea that we can judge donald trump differently than all oth

. >> joining us from washington, reporter for the hill, molly hooper. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> you saw a marked change in tone from last week's hearing, in fact, democrats much more aggressive with their former colleague, but interestingly enough, we saw some republicans seemingly ready to move from accusations of collusion. >> slultly. i mean, i thought tom cotton's question was interesting, but it was a very interesting hearing in that basically senator sessions came out, wanted to clear his name. keep in mind, after jim comey's memos came out throughout the hearing last week senator sessions' name came up a lot of times and he hasn't really had a chance to speak out against what comey was saying, so it seems to me this hearing really was more about sessions clearing his name as you saw when he was talking to senator wyden, more so than getting to the bottom of the counter intelligence investigation into russia's interference in the u.s. election, and that's what the intelligence committee, senate intelligence committee is trying to ge
