Dean I believe they ░░░░░░░░ both with us Andrew ░░░░░░░░ s go first to ░░░░░░░░ What kind of is ░░░░░░░░ out to me just ░░░░░░░░ terms of a law ░░░░░░░░ perspective right now is ░░░░░░░░ the local authorities are ░░░░░░░░ one thing and the ░░░░░░░░ is saying something slightly ░░░░░░░░ McCabe Yeah that s ░░░░░░░░ that s never a ░░░░░░░░ start I think that ░░░░░░░░ press conference that we ░░░░░░░░ one thing was abundantly ░░░░░░░░ is they the local ░░░░░░░░ and I m not ░░░░░░░░ we got the name ░░░░░░░░ that person who was ░░░░░░░░ he seems to be ░░░░░░░░ chief or somebody in ░░░░░░░░ there Yes Same yes ░░░░░░░░ Yeah he is really ░░░░░░░░ very very careful And ░░░░░░░░ think that s the ░░░░░░░░ approach at this point ░░░░░░░░ don t have a ░░░░░░░░ idea that they re ░░░░░░░░ to communicate to the ░░░░░░░░ of the world yet ░░░░░░░░ even exactly what happened ░░░░░░░░ was there how they ░░░░░░░░ attacked with fire and ░░░░░░░░ the purpose or the ░░░░░░░░ of that attack might ░░░░░░░░ been So he was ░░░░░░░░ very clear to say ░░░░░░░░ they re not drawing ░░░░░░░░ conclusions about terrorism or ░░░░░░░░ else at this point ░░░░░░░░ re trying to figure ░░░░░░░░ who they have in ░░░░░░░░ and what that person ░░░░░░░░ have done and who ░░░░░░░░ who he was trying ░░░░░░░░ hurt with that action ░░░░░░░░ it s hard to ░░░░░░░░ that the FBI has ░░░░░░░░ or better information at ░░░░░░░░ point to kind of ░░░░░░░░ out with the conclusion ░░░░░░░░ like 10 minutes after ░░░░░░░░ all started hearing about ░░░░░░░░ that it s a ░░░░░░░░ act of terror It ░░░░░░░░ very well be but ░░░░░░░░ of the time you ░░░░░░░░ to be very careful ░░░░░░░░ attaching that label to ░░░░░░░░ attack until you have ░░░░░░░░ evidence that indicates a ░░░░░░░░ that would qualify as ░░░░░░░░ like an act intended ░░░░░░░░ intimidate a population or ░░░░░░░░ change the impact change ░░░░░░░░ direction of government that ░░░░░░░░ of thing Those are ░░░░░░░░ parts of the terrorism ░░░░░░░░ So I think we ░░░░░░░░ with what we re ░░░░░░░░ from the folks who ░░░░░░░░ closest to the event ░░░░░░░░ this point and they ░░░░░░░░ have a lot of ░░░░░░░░ to do but they ░░░░░░░░ to be on top ░░░░░░░░ it And we ll ░░░░░░░░ from them again tonight ░░░░░░░░ Dean Yeah I mean ░░░░░░░░ that was the other ░░░░░░░░ is we got really ░░░░░░░░ those local authorities broad ░░░░░░░░ on this Really scary ░░░░░░░░ as he said not ░░░░░░░░ not appropriate This is ░░░░░░░░ is devastating to any ░░░░░░░░ This is this is ░░░░░░░░ what we what anybody ░░░░░░░░ in the United States ░░░░░░░░ America or anywhere But ░░░░░░░░ just broad strokes of ░░░░░░░░ they know which doesn ░░░░░░░░ seem like to Andy ░░░░░░░░ point there like they ░░░░░░░░ willing to say that ░░░░░░░░ re confident in knowing ░░░░░░░░ lot right now KAYYEM ░░░░░░░░ That was I m ░░░░░░░░ to be quite direct ░░░░░░░░ The FBI director and ░░░░░░░░ director got way ahead ░░░░░░░░ where the local police ░░░░░░░░ The language that the ░░░░░░░░ used in their tweets ░░░░░░░░ words like violence targeted ░░░░░░░░ and violent They got ░░░░░░░░ of where the local ░░░░░░░░ knew where the investigation ░░░░░░░░ I know I want ░░░░░░░░ just make it clear ░░░░░░░░ This could have been ░░░░░░░░ anti Semitic attack which ░░░░░░░░ terrifying in particular for ░░░░░░░░ in the community We ░░░░░░░░ t know that because ░░░░░░░░ Boulder Police officer at ░░░░░░░░ according to the Boulder ░░░░░░░░ officer they re not ░░░░░░░░ if the people injured ░░░░░░░░ people at the the ░░░░░░░░ Jewish rally the Jewish ░░░░░░░░ Now maybe others in ░░░░░░░░ know that We know ░░░░░░░░ and other organizations have ░░░░░░░░ out on this Maybe ░░░░░░░░ have more evidence But ░░░░░░░░ of the reasons why ░░░░░░░░ know Andrew and I ░░░░░░░░ careful in situations like ░░░░░░░░ is because lots of ░░░░░░░░ are saying lots of ░░░░░░░░ But when the Boulder ░░░░░░░░ chief comes out and ░░░░░░░░ We don t have ░░░░░░░░ plus two equaling four ░░░░░░░░ in other words it ░░░░░░░░ this obviously an anti ░░░░░░░░ attack and the victims ░░░░░░░░ obviously part of that ░░░░░░░░ therefore we re not ░░░░░░░░ it terrorism it adds ░░░░░░░░ lot of it s ░░░░░░░░ it s not good ░░░░░░░░ the community It s ░░░░░░░░ good for the potentially ░░░░░░░░ community It makes law ░░░░░░░░ look disorganized and it ░░░░░░░░ the FBI look so ░░░░░░░░ Like why are you ░░░░░░░░ ahead of the police ░░░░░░░░ who says I don ░░░░░░░░ know what this is ░░░░░░░░ sounds maybe it is ░░░░░░░░ we all think it ░░░░░░░░ but maybe it s ░░░░░░░░ And he has no ░░░░░░░░ to get it wrong ░░░░░░░░ we re going to ░░░░░░░░ a step back not ░░░░░░░░ responsive to tweets by ░░░░░░░░ heads of the FBI ░░░░░░░░ don t have a ░░░░░░░░ history in local law ░░░░░░░░ and we will wait ░░░░░░░░ hope it isn t ░░░░░░░░ we all worry it ░░░░░░░░ And if it is ░░░░░░░░ there ll be an ░░░░░░░░ But that was that ░░░░░░░░ like nothing I d ░░░░░░░░ seen before You normally ░░░░░░░░ Andrew knows this You ░░░░░░░░ get the local people ░░░░░░░░ way ahead on motive ░░░░░░░░ the FBI saying We ░░░░░░░░ t have it yet ░░░░░░░░ now have the opposite ░░░░░░░░ And until we know ░░░░░░░░ the victims were members ░░░░░░░░ that of the Jewish ░░░░░░░░ we don t have ░░░░░░░░ nexus And I will ░░░░░░░░ the Denver police chief ░░░░░░░░ they do not have ░░░░░░░░ nexus now And if ░░░░░░░░ do I will be ░░░░░░░░ first one out here ░░░░░░░░ that that is a ░░░░░░░░ crime But until we ░░░░░░░░ we all need to ░░░░░░░░ not follow the FBI ░░░░░░░░ tweets.”
