BASIN IS NOW FACING ASSAULT AND
BATTERY CHARGES.
THE ALLEGED INCIDENT HAPPENED
AT LEVY MIDDLE SCHOOL IN SOUTH

KIMBERLY GILL.
SHE IS IN THE NEWS ROOM IN KIM
IS HIS TESTIMONY LIKELY TO
CHANGE ANY MINDS HERE.
>>I KAREN GOOD AFTERNOON THE
SHORT ANSWER.
I GUESS SEEMS TO BE NO SENATE.
DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS
CONTINUE TO BE WORLDS APART
ABOUT THE CONCLUSIONS OF THE
INSPECTOR.
GENERAL’S REPORT SO INSPECTOR
GENERAL MICHAEL HOROWITZ TOLD
THE SENATORS THERE WAS
SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE TO LAUNCH A
PROBE INTO TIES BETWEEN THE
TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND RUSSIA HE
SAID HE FOUND NO EVIDENCE
THOUGH A PARTISAN POLITICS.
BUT HE ALSO SAYS HE COULDN’T
ENTIRELY RULE OUT BIAS AS A
MOTIVATION FOR 17 ERRORS THE
FBI MADE WHEN ASKING TO CONDUCT
ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE.
THE INVESTIGATION EVENTUALLY
MORPHED INTO THE ROBERT MUELLER
PROBE AS YOU KNOW.
34 PEOPLE WERE INDICTED WITH 7
GUILTY PLEAS AND 5 PEOPLE SENT
TO JAIL.
DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS TAKE
VERY DIFFERENT LESSONS FROM THE
FINDINGS.
>>WHAT HAPPENED HERE IS NOT A
FEW IRREGULARITIES.
WHAT HAPPENED HERE IS THE
SYSTEM FAILED PEOPLE AT THE
HIGHEST LEVEL OF OUR GOVERNMENT
TOOK THE LAW IN THEIR OWN
HANDS.
I BELIEVE STRONGLY THAT IT’S
TIME TO MOVE ON FROM THE FALSE
CLAIMS.
OF POLITICAL BIAS AND THOSE WHO
SHOWED GREAT INTEREST IN THE
QUESTION.
A POLITICALLY MOTIVATED
INVESTIGATIONS AGAINST
PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOULD SHOW THE
SAME CONCERN ABOUT POLITICALLY
MOTIVATED.
DATED INVESTIGATIONS REQUESTED
BY THE PRESIDENT OR HIS
ATTORNEY GENERAL.

ALSO SAYS HE BELIEVES THE FBI

HAVE MORE OVERSIGHT AND
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR SIMILAR

BECAUSE SAM IS FIGHTING A
BATTLE AGAINST A RARE DISEASE
SO RARE THAT FEWER THAN 80
CHILDREN IN THE WORLD HAVE HAD

MOST NEGATIVE OF A PROGNOSIS
WITHOUT A CURE CERTAIN DEATH.
THE DISEASE IS CALLED LOOK FOR

CHILDREN UNTIL THE AGE OF
ADOLESCENCE AROUND 1516 WHERE.
THEY EXPERIENCE THEIR 1ST
SEIZURE AND WITHIN 3 MONTHS YOU
WATCH YOUR CHILD GO FROM BEING
A NORMAL CHILD WHEELCHAIR BOUND
HAD DIFFICULTY SPEAKING READING
FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIFE.
>>HER 17 YEAR OLD SON HYPE THEM
RECEIVED THE RARE DIAGNOSIS.
HE RECENTLY PASSED AWAY WAITING

IN THE HORIZON.
BUT EVERYTHING IS STILL IN THE
PRE CLINICAL PHASES AT THIS.

EPILEPSY I WILL DO GENETIC
TESTING EARLY BECAUSE IT’S
ACTUALLY REALLY IMPORTANT TO
KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DEALING WITH
AS AT THE EPILEPSY IN THE BAD
SEIZURES THAT ARE CAUSING.
