20
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:01.000
<v Speaker 1>This isn't a Democrat issue, this isn't a mare Can issue.

21
00:01:01.159 --> 00:01:02.320
<v Speaker 5>It's for all of us.

22
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:02.960
<v Speaker 3>To stand up.

23
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:07.400
<v Speaker 5>Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll addressed the crowd on Boston Common.

24
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Government hurks best when we have checks and balances, when

25
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:13.439
<v Speaker 2>we have a Congress that actually is willing to check

26
00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>the power of.

27
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:17.519
<v Speaker 4>The most powerful person in America. That's how it's supposed

28
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:17.879
<v Speaker 4>to work.

29
00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:21.560
<v Speaker 5>On City Hall Plaza, Mayor Michelle wou drove home the

<v Speaker 5>in Washington.

32
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:31.719
<v Speaker 4>Boston has never and will never back down to the police.

33
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 3>This is our city and you will not break us.

34
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:39.439
<v Speaker 5>More than twelve hundred hands off demonstrations were planned in

35
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:43.879
<v Speaker 5>all fifty states across the country on City Hall Plaza

36
00:01:43.959 --> 00:01:47.359
<v Speaker 5>Mike Macklin WBZ, Boston's news radio.

37
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:50.680
<v Speaker 1>And it's estimated between twenty five and thirty thousand people

38
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>attended that Boston rally and from the East Coast to

39
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:56.959
<v Speaker 1>the West Coast just about everywhere in between as well.

40
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Demonstrators criticize a Trump administration's mass firings under the Department

41
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:07.079
<v Speaker 1>of Government Efficiency and other actions. In Florida, people rallied

42
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:10.039
<v Speaker 1>near a golf course where President Trump spent the morning.

43
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:12.879
<v Speaker 1>When asked about the protests, the White House said that

44
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:16.599
<v Speaker 1>President Trump will always protect social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

45
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:19.199
<v Speaker 1>All right, Things certainly didn't go as plan for an

46
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:23.960
<v Speaker 1>alleged cop impersonator in New Hampshire. A Manchester man arrested

47
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.319
<v Speaker 1>and accused of impersonating a police officer after he tried

48
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>to arrest a real off duty cop. The Union Leader

<v Speaker 1>Wels We're still seeing rain over a good portion of

66
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:27.479
<v Speaker 1>the state right now. Parts of western mass are dry

67
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.800
<v Speaker 1>at this point, and parts of the South Shore from

68
00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Plymouth south the Cape the Islands, they're dry. Parts of

<v Speaker 1>southern Massachusetts Fall River, Taunton, New Bedford dry. But this

70
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:43.759

74
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:59.199
<v Speaker 1>two degrees. Back to news. Ukrainian President Zelensky is criticizing

75
00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:02.879
<v Speaker 1>the US and Embassy over its response to recent Russian

76
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:05.240
<v Speaker 1>air strikes. Jim Forbes has more.

77
00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 3>On Friday, Russian missiles killed sixteen people and injured fifty

78
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:13.479
<v Speaker 3>more in a central Ukrainian city. Zelensky said the Embassy's

79
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:18.560
<v Speaker 3>response was quote surprisingly disappointing, accusing officials of being afraid

80
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 3>to mention Russia when commenting on the attacks. The US

81
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:26.600
<v Speaker 3>Ambassador to Ukraine said the air strikes were horrific, but

82
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.879
<v Speaker 3>did not specifically say the missiles were from Russia. Zelensky

83
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.560
<v Speaker 3>said the US quote is afraid to even say the

84
00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 3>word Russian when speaking about the missiles that murdered children.

85
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:38.839
<v Speaker 3>I'm Jim Forbes.

86
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:40.639

<v Speaker 2>South Carolina will have a chance to lock up its

88
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:45.879
<v Speaker 2>second straight national title when the game Cocks take on

89
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.399

91
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:54.680
<v Speaker 2>for head coach Don Stay squad, which unlike last season,

92
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:57.839
<v Speaker 2>has relied on a balanced attack at a deep bench

93
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.079
<v Speaker 2>all season long. Freshman Joyce Edward Word's the player to watch,
