who but a coward would take them to russia. all of this would be a matter of coming to justice and right mao, we have to have it come to a conclusion that we don't do that. outside the circle of civilized human behavior. what we are doing here is very important. and secure assistance and government and economic assistance and i thank congresswoman lee and congressman mcgovern. for the displaced within ukraine and those who are trapped under fire without food or water, because their civilian communities are being attacked by the coward putin. we are proud. and we should be proud that we had the opportunity and putin decided whatever he decided to be brutal and cruel and a coward, that we were there to help. democracy versus a dictatorship. democracy must prevail. the ukranian people are fighting the fight for their democracy and for ours as well. we must help them win and feed the hungry and stop the horrible behavior that they are doing in treating women and trafficking women and girls. this is unbelievable. and it's obvious an

they're nothing but cowards. cowards. they let those kids get slaughtered. those kids had dreams. those dreams were shattered. just because those cops were cowards to go in there. school shootings need to stop. they need to do something. they need to stop this crap. we're tired of it. enough is enough. anne >> that was one of the victims whose ten year old aliana taurus, and i interviewed her grandparents, her grandfather and aunts about an hour ago. her mom alyssa met with president biden at some point. the grandfather gave her a letter to give to the president. one of the things he said in the letter was the american model might as well be in god we trust, but for all intents and purposes in the united states it is now in guns we trust. it's pretty clear right now. it does not matter whether it was an r or d or i am beside your name. it's not an issue about politics. it's an issue about community safety and a complete lack of care and engagement from lawmakers to do something to prevent this from happening again because it's not a question of it's going to happen but when. it's

they are nothing but damn cowards. cowards. they let those kids get slaughtered. those kids have dreams. those dreams are shattered just because those you pd cowards to go in there and go -- school shootings need to stop. they need to do something. they need to stop this -- about foreigners. we're tired of it. enough is enough. >> yeah alex, the texas commission on law enforcement, a couple of years ago, in light of would have an incentive here in texas and part update its guidance on active shooters. the language could not be more clear. it says the priority of life skill number one, innocent civilians. number two, first responders. and the words in the document also say that for anyone who is a first responder who isn't willing to sacrifice their life for innocent people, you should consider another career choice. we know president biden is expected to meet with first responders later this afternoon. i would love to be a fly on the wall to hear that conversation. because it strikes the very core right now of what this community clearly is feeling and experiences

either we are bold or cowards. i don't want to be a coward. i want to defend our independence. we were under a communist regime. we understand the imperialism. we have strong memories. we do not want to go back to that time. but then there is behaving like a responsible leader. you know that sergei lavrov and putin have in recent days talked about the real possibility of nuclear war. i know. you are the neighbour of ukraine. you stand on the front line. you are ready, you are telling your own people, you are ready to face down that threat. you know what helps me? it helps me to look at volodymyr zelensky. because he is the first in line. he faced this question several months ago. and he didn't give up. he went to this fight, and we see results. they actually are gaining success. they are moving forward. they were able to escape, to rescue kyiv, and of course, now they face a very difficult fight, but we need to help them. if i may say so, zelensky had no choice because russia chose to invade. do we have a choice? that is the question. in this city today, you have people who are

because i have seen these cowards walk away before. i'm going to call them cowards. i have seen lawmakers stop right when it's time to act and say, well, you know what, we'll wait. or they'll accuse democrats of politicizing and we're not politicizing anything, we're trying to stop the murder of innocent people, period. children. you know, i love politicians when they can come on tv and give us all of the stuff they plan to do, but why are not acting right now? why are you waiting for another mass shooting? how many mass shootings do we need in the state of texas? it's horrific. i got to tell you, i went to a major retailer, you know i'm a shopper. i saw a cop yesterday and you know, i was -- i said, thank you for your service, i always say thank you for your service. >> a police officer. >> when i walked out i just wanted to hug him. you know what, i'm going to say something to him. sir, i was raised by a dad who served in the military and he always told us as children, say thank you. i want to hug you because you're protecting me going to the store, that young man
