as for bridget zeigler, she has not accepted calls. she was asked to accept down from the sarasota school district blast week saying that the details of this sex scandal are disturbing. >> thank you very much. >>> to some of the other headlines that we're watching at this hour. golden state warriors day von green will be out three weeks after being suspended indefinitely with the nba they said that green has began counseling for his on the court altercations. >>> the owner of some popular apparel companies are scrambling to contain a cyber attack amid the holiday shopping rush. they said that they deducted unauthorized activity last week disrupting their shopping operations. shoppers will get apologies disrupting the delivery dates. >>> the mission was called off because of a ground system issue. the launch would have marked the rocket's return to flight after more than a year. a new launch date set to be announced some time next week. we look forward to watching that. >>> when we come back, it was one of the largest cooperations in th

zeigler, you're included on that e-mail.id she mean by that and does that line up with what she said yesterday? >> yeah, that told the agents who believed in that affidavit, the fbi agents have probable cause to include political one, former vice president joe biden. they presented the affidavit showing that they had enough probable cause for that. i think that limitation there, the evidence was overwhelming. this is about access to the administration. so access to hunter biden, to the administration. it is seen through the e-mails that have been turned over. there was former head of ice that was pulling immigrations. immigration system for burisma officials. so there's just a lot of different things that were included in that. the evidence clearly did not support removing political figure number 1. >> martha: gary, when you look at this situation and you see the things that you recommended were likely charges and there was evidence to support, now they have finally come to light. now he has been indicted. you probably saw t
