Tonight former President Trump held a campaign rally in the Bronx, a largely Hispanic and Black area of New York City. President Biden won the county, a Democratic stronghold, by about 68 points four years ago. But as Mr. Trump seeks reelection in November, he's trying to reach out to those voters. Anderson talks about the campaign's efforts with former Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and Republican strategist Shermichael Singleton. Plus, it's been nearly 19 years since Hurricane Katrina slammed into New Orleans and parts of Mississippi, killing more nearly 1,400 people.

Retired lieutenant general Russel L. Honoré was on MSNBC and claims that the Capitol Police were complicit in what happened in Washington DC on wednesday. The Defense Depratment did not have the National Guard on standby, to say that the FBI intel was flawed is an understatement, the Pentagon basically fiddle farted around for 3 hours while the Capitol was being over run with pro-Trump rioters.. contrast this with the racial protests in DC over the summer where helicopters were flying low and surveillance aircraft was in the air and Trump used tear gas to clear protesters for a photo-op in front of a DC church.. #capitolriots #complicitcorruptGOP #forthepeople
Pres.-elect Biden issued a fierce condemnation of Wednesday's deadly pro-Trump insurrection on Capitol Hill as Trump, edited and scripted, condemned the violence and acknowledged the 'new administration.'

Born during a hurricane, Russel L. Honoré grew up as a black man in Louisiana during segregation, but he found his calling in the military. He rose through the ranks to become a Lieutenant General, and when Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005 he was the man in charge of the joint military and civilian relief effort. Having seen the power and devastation caused by nature during his career, in his retirement he formed a ‘Green Army’ of environmental campaigners in his home state.
