Fox News announces the Denver-area school where a shooting took place this morning is where @aacuna1's children go. One still a student, two graduates.

@johnrobertsFox: "On occasion the stories touch us personally and that has happened" with "our intrepid reporter Alicia Acuna"
Fox's @aacuna1 joined @AmericaRpts from her son & niece's Denver school where a shooting took place: "I have so many questions as do so many other parents here...I was...working on a different story & I started getting texts from my son saying...police officers everywhere"
Fox's @aacuna1: "I was one of the parents coming down here...[Y]ou were talking about this school safety plan that this suspect was under...[P]arents here had no idea that their kids were walking into the same school w/other kids...being patted down b/c there was enough concern"
Fox's @aacuna1: "[T]here's a tremendous amount of frustration rn w/regard to this student safety plan that we didn't know about...and a lot of questions over...why the student was even still coming...here."

@SandraSmithFox: "Alicia, our heart goes out to you, as parents."
Fox's @aacuna1 reveals two administrators were shot at her son's school while patting down a student b/c Denver Public Schools defunded their SRO program. She adds a student was recently fatally shot in their car, leading students to demand police be reinstated. #DefundThePolice
Fox's @aacuna1 reveals the student fatally shot in February at the school (where today's shooting happened) sat next to her son in class: "The students...have been rocked by that...It's been a tough school year."

She adds the pat downs took place next to the auditorium.
Moments later, Fox's @aacuna1 stops to hug her son after a shooting at his Denver high school earlier today

This was just after saying she & her husband are thinking of transferring him & stepsons out of Denver Public Schools where two shootings have happened in 2023
.@johnrobertsFox SOUNDS OFF on the #DefundThePolice crowd removing police from schools: "[W]hat were you people thinking...in the first place?...[A]cross the country, this is driving parents nuts that school boards are making decisions...then saying, 'oh, crap. We screwed up?'"
A minutes later, @SandraSmithFox digs up the 2020 Denver Public Schools statement touting the removal of police from schools b/c it "contributes to the school to prison pipeline" as "black & brown students arrested...are more likely to end up in the adult criminal system"

DOOCY TIME: "[W]hen you talk about infrastructure, you say it's important for [Biden] to have a chance to speak directly to the American people. Why doesn't he directly want to speak...now that some big cities are bracing...for riots?"

KJP: "So, he put out a statement yesterday"
Doocy: "[H]ave any more classified documents been located in any places associated w/President Biden?"

KJP: "I would refer you to the White House counsel's office."
Doocy: "And why do WH officials insist that the President self-reported the classified materials if his lawyers initially called the WH and not the Justice Department?"

KJP: "I would refer you to the White House counsel."

Joy Reid begins her interview with Byron Donalds with a rant whining that it's not "a good look" that the GOP has members such as Gosar and MTG, but wants to kick Omar, Schiff, and Swalwell off committees.

Donalds notes the GOP warned Dems precedent would come back to bite them.
Byron Donalds to Joy Reid on her fixation with who's kicked off committees: This "has nothing to do w/the work of the 118th Congress...The other stuff is kind of a sideshow."

Joy Reid: "Not a side show b/c, unfortunately, it's kind of the show."
After Joy Reid constructed a massive strawman of what House GOP committees want to do (all of which seem based), Byron Donalds schools her on the #TwitterFiles: "If that is not the federal govt suppressing free speech...Congress has a responsibility to investigate that."

DOOCY TIME (from earlier): "In this prisoner swap, why did Russia get such a better deal?"

KJP: "Look, you know, I've talked about this & I'll say this again. Here were our choices...Brittney or no one at all. Bringing home one American or no American at all."
Doocy: "And they gave up a professional athlete. We gave up a prolific arms deal, who was convicted of trying to kill Americans, who was called the merchant of death."

KJP: "The professional athlete is also an American citizen, so let's not forget that."
Doocy: "And Paul Whelan is an American citizen. Do we--"

KJP: "And I have explained how the Russians have illegally treated...his situation. I've been very clear on that. We've laid that out for you &, again, the President felt...this was an opportunity to bring Brittney home."

JACQUI TIME: "The WH & [Biden] were very vocal about GA's new election law...The big argument...was...it would suppress voting, but there was record turnout in the primary...the general...the runoff...early voting...absentee...Is the DOJ going to drop their lawsuit against" them?
.@JacquiHeinrich: Biden "called" Georgia's election law "Jim Crow in the 21st century & a blatant attack on the Constitution...Does he still see it that way?"

KJP claims "[t]here was suppression" in Georgia, "but...the American people" still "came out" to vote in Democrats
.@JacquiHeinrich to KJP: "The #TwitterFiles had released that the company typically required...a law enforcement finding...materials were hacked...to...restrict certain stories...Did anyone from the Biden team communicate...this...stemmed from hacked materials?"

DOOCY TIME: "Kevin McCarthy said that he invited President Biden down to the border. How does the President RSVP? We know -- we know the President's never been down to the border. The possible next speaker says that he wants him to go with him, so is he going to?"
KJP to Doocy on whether Biden will go to the border w/@GOPLeader: "He's been there. He's been to the border & since he took office--"

Doocy: "When did he go to the border?"

KJP: "--since he took office, the President...has been taking action to fix our immigration issue."
Doocy: "When are you guys going to delete the WH Twitter account?"

KJP: "Why would we do that?"

Doocy: "Well, you're saying...you're keeping an eye on Twitter b/c it might not be a suitable platform, so why use it?"

KJP: "Look...I don't have anything to share on any...changes"
