there is not one person in texas including greg abbott, who believes that greg abbott is ever going to eliminate rape. and so, now, now, texans know what greg abbott looks like when he is lying. >> so, go number one in the state of texas, it is to eliminate rape, so that no woman, no person will be a victim of rape. >> consider the cruelty of that lie. that is a lie told in service to the republican policy of forced birth, a republican cruelty a forced birth, forcing great children to have children. that is a republican policy. and there is not one republican in texas, or one republican on the supreme court, or one republican anywhere in the country, who will ever tell the truth about what they have decided to do. two little girls who are raped, two women who are raped, two girls who are victims of incest. the republican policy for rape victims is to victimized them again, and force them all to give birth. and in the 50 years of debate on abortion in this country, we have never once, had a single opponent of abortion, ever tell the truth, when asked why should victims of rape and inces

greg abbott has not fired him. no one has been fired. no one has resigned, including pete arredondo, the chief of the uvalde school district police, who was reportedly in command inside the school, went according to the uvalde leader news editorial, quote, 19 officers from the uvalde pd, school district, department of public safety and border patrol waited, apparently frozen by orders or fear, in the hallway. frozen by orders or fear. while chief arredondo on those 19 officers where frozen for an hour, the frederica tauruses ten year old son, helio, bled to death on the floor of his classroom. on saturday, frederick torres said this about chief arredondo. >> if i were him, i would quit my job. even if he doesn't quit, he's supposed to be by it, get out of their, did nothing for us. he failed us. he failed the kids. he failed this community. what is he gonna do now? how is he gonna wake up tomorrow? >> he is apparently having no trouble waking up tomorrow. his professional life only seems to have actually improved since he failed utterly

greg abbott is squarely in the pocket of these companies. i just don't see a whole lot of change coming from them anytime soon. >> i want to talk to you about the state house investigation and the police response to the shooting in uvalde. we're a republican lawmaker is leading the probe alongside a conservative former judge and also a former prosecutor who is a democrat. what's your thoughts on the three-person committee so far? where there are the people you hope to see included? you are not included. the person who represents el paso in the state senate and santa fe in the state senate were not included. what are your thoughts on that? >> i think it was a slap in the face to the people of el paso, of southern springs. actually, they've got a representative in the people of santa fe. this -- i hate to say it, but it was almost a slap in a face to the latinos in the state. but even beyond race or ethnicity, these are the communities in the center having to deal on the front line. i just got back from another viewing, another rosary where i

and what happened on that table remain shrouded as long as greg abbott has it so. we are in this space right now in tex where we can get no answers to what happened to why those students waited for 45 minutes for officers to go in. juan: senator, we discussed this previously, this whole issue of the incident commander and it seems most of the blame is being placed on chief arradondo? does it make sense to the department of public safety, the main state of police organization in texas, since her offices were on the scene, would have deferred to a local school police chief in an instance like this? >> it makes no sense to me. they are the superior authority. dps always comes to us when we have meetings, neighborhood meetings and such, and they talked about command and control are the superior force in that area, especially after greg abbott votedo put in $4 billion on the board over the last year. there was at least, from what i know in my last communication with steve mccraw, at first there were two officers in the hallway. my last phone call he said there was betwe

joining me now is texas governor greg abbott. has the white house called you? have you heard from them about the mass casualty event. >> no he has not. the thing that struck me. he said is he doing everything possible to stop human smuggling. that's a lie. he has stopped doing everything that had been done to address human smuggling. he has defunded and inadequately funded border patrol. he has dismantled ice. he has eliminated all of the border security efforts that were put in place by president trump. it was just a year and a half ago when we had the most secure border in decades and today we have a worst human smug imling problem than ever before. these people who lost their lives, they did so because president biden has empowered and emboldened the cartels to do exactly what you saw happen. it's a tragedy and it's not going to stop until biden begins to enforce the laws passed by congress and the united states of america. >> jesse: the cartels are getting richer than they ever have before, governor, have you heard what the white house plan is to take out t

just for questioning greg abbott about this, the day after the mass murder. that mayor has done absolutely nothing to reveal the truth of what's happened in his city. and today, he did nothing to reveal the truth about where that police chief has been hiding out. who he helped swear in as a city council tonight. that is what the republican mayor of uvalde. can you imagine a real mayor anywhere in america, any democratic mayor in america, the mayor of new york, the mayor of boston, the mayor of houston, the mayor of dallas, any mayor? anywhere? in a real city being silent for a week? about the facts and the truth of what happens in a mass murder in the school, an elementary school in his city? that's what that mayor is doing. in uvalde. no one has been fired, and no one, no one, has had the decency to resign, after failing, failing, to protect the lives of children and teachers in an elementary school. joining us now, tony plohetski, investigator reporter from the austin american-statesman, and rialto, contrary, has staff -- san antonio express news and tony y

this is our fifth massacre now, and greg abbott is still stonewalling us by doing nothing other than special committees which will lead to nothing. that is not a special session. >> senator, arredondo told the "tribune" he didn't speak out sooner because he didn't want to compound the grief that families were feeling or cast any blame. what's your response? i think that perhaps transparency might actually help these families instead of this yearning for answers that keeps only frustrating them. >> if everybody stood up and said, look, we made a mistake, we erred here, it was the heat of the moment, and showed everybody all of the facts, people would understand. it's the lack of transparency and the lack of credibility that's happening here. and it's starting again at the very top. this -- this isn't been transparency, frankly it's an attack on democracy when you're keeping information from communities of interest. furthermore, how in the world are we as policymakers ever going to be able to fix and make sure that that doesn't happen again, that lack of communication amongst law enfor

five months is all governor greg abbott needs to keep the cover-up going until election day. six months from now will be mid december and the district attorney will of course then say that she doesn't want to release any information about the murders of as the christmas holiday approaches, to protect families from that information. so she will delay her release of that information about the case until at least january of next year. the district attorney has no legal power to prevent anyone else from making information public. but the mayor of uvalde is now happily hiding behind the district attorney saying, the eovaldi county district attorney has requested the city to not release any city records related to the robb elementary school investigation. notice that the district attorney requested the city to not release the records because the district attorney cannot order the city to not release the records. because she doesn't have that power. the district attorney's announcement today about what's she was doing did not include a single reference to investigating and the crime

. >> seth: so back in texas, you're running against governor greg abbott. and obviously, you know, texas -- he, you know, banned abortion after six weeks and that, i think, is scary enough, but he also implemented this bounty law. can you explain exactly how harrowing this element of his law is >> yeah. so there's a law in force right now that is a six-week abortion ban with a $10,000 bounty placed on the back of anyone who assists any woman in making her own decision about her own life, her own body, her own health care but it's actually worse, because he also signed what is known as a trigger bill, which means that if the supreme court overturns roe v. wade, which is likely to happen, it triggers a total abortion ban beginning at conception, with no exception for rape and no exception for incest and that's happening in a state that leads much of the developed world in a crisis of maternal mortality. it means that our moms and women are dying faster than almost anywhere else, because as you close down all these reproductive health care clinics, not only is

texas governor greg abbott has tried with his operation lone star to make it more difficult for migrants coming north, he has struck a few deals with corrupt mexican governors. nothing really that is making a substantive difference grade we know that because hundreds of thousands of people are being arrested every month. the numbers are increasing despite these operations at the state level. the other thing we know is the mexican government is involved in this. how do we know that clicks you can't get to northern mexico yo can't get up to the border unless you go through these checkpoints and you can't get through the checkpoints unless you have papers so there is official corruption going on in the evidence is hundreds of thousand people are moving from mexico up to the border every month. >> such a crime. we appreciate you coming on. thank you. >> thank you. >> jeffrey epstein killed himself, shut up he did, and that was the end of the story. what's interesting is maxwell hasn't killed herself yet, but lawyers are claiming there have been attempts to have her kille in prison, but look

>> i think what he does, he compares himself to ron desantis in florida or greg abbott in texas and a lot to work with if you want to start that comparison. kennedy: lower taxes in florida, kids went to school, people would be like it looks more pleasurable there. >> you are going. >> not if you are the victim of gun violence or gay or a major corporation who says i want to be in a state that supports environmental concern, all that. kennedy: look at the corporations that have left california and moved to texas and the cap gun violence soaring in los angeles and l.a. county. look at the economy -- >> i'm just telling you if i was running gavin newsom's campaign, i would say where is the highest rate of violent crime in the country? red state run by guess who, greg abbott, desantis and all those guys, not in the democratic-controlled state and i would say . kennedy: l.a. and san francisco, gun violence, larceny is up, homelessness off the chart, quality of life plummeted and dislike of course if you run graphic candidate like larry elder, gavin newsom will win the recall while he and h

governor greg abbott needs the texas cover-up to continue for just five more months. then texans get no more new information about what happened at robb elementary school for the 78 minutes when kids and teachers were bleeding to death on the floor. today, i attorney general made an announcement in washington intended to pierce the texas cover-up but will probably have the effect of helping the texas cover-up continue for at least another five months. we will have more on the cover-up in everton contribution to it later in this hour. the hour nepalese spent standing in the school do nothing has been called uvalde 's darkest hour ever. a woman who works at that newspaper, uvalde leader news, said today that for some politicians, quote guns are more important then children. she is talking about republicans of course because it is the republican party whose official position is to assure that americas mass murders are the best equipped mass murders in the world while the democratic party for decades has been trying to ban the sale of the favored tool of americas mass mur

texas governor greg abbott declaring a state of disaster in uvalde to speed up state and local resources to help the community. >> i'm thinking about the parents, how painful it is. if it was my grandchild, i would be devastated. >> reporter: the uvalde mayor tells us that all of the newly elected city council members were sworn in last night, not just arredondo. in the meantime, we are learning more about the victims involved in this shooting. we know three of them remain in san antonio hospitals. a 66-year-old woman in good condition, along with a 9-year-old girl. today there is still a 10-year-old girl fighting to recover in serious condition. >> we certainly hope she pulls through as that community holds the 21 funerals. morgan, thank you so much. >>> on capitol hill, the house judiciary committee will hold an emergency session tomorrow in the hopes of moving forward a package of gun violence prevention bills. the protecting our kids act combines eight gun reform bills. the legislation would raise the age for buying a semiautomatic rival from 18 to 21. it would ban high capacity maga

let me tell you this, texas governor greg abbott, he is playing a shameful political game. he is spending $8 billion a year to deploy state troopers at the border in texas to actually -- he called national guard, a line of defense of the invasion he called it, and also building his own border wall. i mean, the primary responsible of these migrants going into the deserts in the mountains in texas was they are dying in greater -- this is on his hand. this is part of the policy of criminal -- at the state level and federal level. juan: yet here we are decades after the big immigration protests of 2006 trying to press for immigration reform, and congress is no closer to trying to come up with a more comprehensive and humane immiation pocy. what is your sense of where we go from here? >> listen, we have high hopes during the beginning of this administration that we will have a chance to pass immigration reform, to fix the system, to bring millions of people out of the shadows, to create ways for people to come legally to the country to end this human rights crisis happening at t

abbott, ted cruz was, you know, make sure to stand right behind texas governor greg abbott at that press conference where they were giving out facts and information and he was going to say just the facts and a lot of that stuff just wasn't true that we now know what he said and he seemed to have been duped by it as well. it's amazing he hasn't sort of, i guess he doesn't want to get anywhere near this publicly until there's a report out, but it's amazing he hasn't come out and given new information or that nobody is. shimon, appreciate all your efforts, shimon prokupecz, it's not easy and up next, the cnn exclusive on what allies to the former president are saying now to their pleas for him to stop the violence on capitol hill and january 6th. also, witnesses, when their public hearings are scheduled to start next. hot tub, why not? and of course, puppy-friendly. we don't like to say perfect, but it's pretty perfect. booking.com, booking.yeah. with angi, you can connect with and see ratings s and reviews. and when you book and pay throug you're coverered by our happine check out angi.com

seven mass shootings under greg abbott's belt. seven. and all he's done is $100 million in securing and hardening schools. he just spent $4 billion on a trumped up border policy that doesn't work, 40 times more he spent on the border than he spent on school hardening. >> my question -- my last question to you is why is it since you're involved, you represent this district, that all of the fixes for this or the solutions don't involve guns it seems from the right, from greg abbott and others. it involves mental health, it involves guns if you want to put guns in the hands of teachers and staff or if you want to put more officers at the school but none of it involves the access to guns in this country. what is that ? >> i guess it involves an exorcism as well because it evil. certainly it's evil. certainly it mental health. if it's a mental health problem, fund it better. it absolutely is having militarized militarized weapons in the hands of 18-year-olds. how can you buy an a.r.-15 at the age of 18? it's astounding to me. i own guns. i do

governor greg abbott initially said that law enforcement gave this brave response, that folks rushed into danger. he eventually said he was misled by local authorities about their response to the shooting. he says he was livid. as far as we know no one has been held accountable for apparently deceiving the governor. you have said you believe he was lying when he said he was misled. do you have any evidence to back that up? what do you think should happen here? >> well, as you mentioned, if that's the case, if somebody lied to him, then who has been disciplined? and in particular, i know state senator gutierrez has said, and he said this on the record, that he was told by dps, i believe that there were at least two dps officers that were in that group of 17 or 19 officers waiting outside the classroom who waited too long. so if he had people who were on the ground, that were state law enforcement authorities, did he not talk to them? did steve mcgraw not talk to them about what happened? so who lied to the governor? was it the dps troopers or the rangers, was it his dps chief mcgraw?

last week, it was the governor of texas, granted -- greg abbott , said that we need to do a better job of mental health in this country. do you believe anyone who shoots anyone in this country has a problem with mental health? guest: it is heartbreaking, frustrating, angering that to see what is happening. mental illness often becomes the culprit. honestly, it is very rare that a person that commits that violence has been diagnosed with a mental illness. when we are blaming until illness, we are not getting any closer to the solution. violent acts are attributed to mental illness and honestly a person with mental illness is more likely to be a victim of violence in a perpetrator. 23 times more likely to be a victim than the general purpose -- than the general population. when we focus on mental illness, it distracts from the topic at hand to really address the gun violence in this country. it also as to the stigma around mental health. it has a tragic impact of discouraging people to go get the help that they need to get well and stay well. mental health is health and we should not be
