Finland joined the NATO military alliance yesterday, dealing a major blow to Russian president Vladimir Putin with a historic realignment of Europe's security landscape triggered by Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. Not only does Finland provide an 800 mile border for NATO with Russia, it provides a nation with a long memory.

It fought off the Soviet. Daniel fried was the U.S. ambassador to Poland and is currently a wiser family distinguished fellow with the Atlantic council.

"P news. It's 5 45, I'm Ann Kramer. I'm Hillary Howard, we're really glad you're with us. In Washington, politics is king. So when an email from mayor muriel Bowser's office buried the big news that are longtime chief of staff was resigning, D.C. politicos waited and wondered over the weekend why, John, they'll check you was out. And now we're learning he's facing allegations of sexual harassment and is being investigated. WTO's Meghan cloherty has been following. She joins us live, Megan, what do we know about these allegations? Well, we don't know a lot. We know they're serious, and they involve sexual contact and unwanted advances. And that's, of course, according to the attorney for the D.C. employee who filed a complaint against John Fauci, which she says was a sexual harassment. We don't know who the woman is or how or when they work together. And we might never know. That's because this is an internal investigation and given how sensitive the details could be and the woman's privacy concerns, the mayor says the findings of this investigation won't be made public, the attorney for the employee who filed the initial complaint says, quote, it's our understanding that this behavior is long-standing. So it would be interesting to see if she shares any more details. So for people that don't know, Megan, what role did he play in the Bowser administration? John Phil check you, he really was the man who wore many hats. He started in D.C. government back in the day with mayor Adrian Fenty, but he's been with mayor muriel Bowser in her right hand man really since 2014. And as far as the press is concerned, he was the gatekeeper. He always had the inside track on what was going on in multiple departments. In 2019, he was promoted to deputy mayor of planning an economic development, so he was at all the restaurant openings and working on contracts for the downtown bid and bringing grocery stores to food deserts in the city. Most recently, of course, working with the city's troubled housing department, and all of that, while he was still serving as the mayor's chief of staff. So he was really the guy behind the scenes, but for the Bowser administration, he was pretty high up there. So I have a question for you, Megan. With him gone, how does that potentially affect the mayor if he was the confidant the person she went to? That's the big question. And if she knew anything, I mean, she is a very big on promoting women in her administration. And we asked her today a member of the press asked her, does this bother? How do you feel about this? And she blazed right past the question, which to me, almost indicated that she has very strong feelings about it that she didn't want to share. That is WTO P is making cloherty. Thank you so much. I'm sure this will be updated all the time. Yes. Thank you. Thanks, Megan. It is 5 47. Now that the top stories were working at WTO P.

"New criminal code, supporters of the measure argue that lighter penalties can not stand in a time of rising crime. Let's go to WTO peace Mitchell Miller today on the hill. Republicans like North Carolina senator Tom tillis are critical of the new criminal code, pointing out that penalties would be lighter for carjacking, even though it happens to people every day. The D.C. said council was blind to crime happening right in front of them right outside their front door. D.C. mayor muriel Bowser doesn't agree with some of the lighter penalties, but she also doesn't think Congress should be stepping in on a local issue. I am not happy that the Congress is intervening in our laws. The disapproval resolution is expected to get bipartisan support, including from Virginia democratic senators, Mark Warner, and Tim kaine. On Capitol Hill, Mitchell Miller, WTO news. New tonight, the 6 year old boy who shot his first grade teacher at a school in Newport News Virginia will not be held criminally responsible. The city prosecutor tells NBC News that while he won't seek charges against the student, he hasn't decided whether any adults involved in the case will be charged. The gun that the boy brought to school belonged to his mother, the shooting on January 6th that richneck elementary school has led to a potential lawsuit expected to be filed on behalf of the teacher Abigail's Warner. It's also led to the school's superintendent and an assistant principal being kicked out, plus the installation of metal detectors. The Justice Department is out with a scathing report on police conduct in Louisville following the deadly shooting of Breonna Taylor back in 2020, attorney general Merrick Garland says the investigation found Louisville police have engaged in a pattern of violating constitutional rights and unlawfully discriminating against black people among other things. The report finds that LMPD uses excessive force, conducts searches based on invalid warrants, unlawfully executes warrants without knocking and announcing, unlawfully stops, searches, detains, and arrests, Taylor was shot and killed during a botched police rate of her apartment, the four current and former officers involved in that rate have been charged with federal civil rights at violations, and the Justice Department says it's going to review Memphis police department policies on use of force, deescalation policies, and its specialized units. The review was requested by the city's mayor and police chief following the deadly police involved beating of Tyree Nichols earlier this year. The DoJ is also conducting a civil rights investigation into Nichols's death. It's 6 34 leaders in Maryland have been irate since last fall when the feds announced a different selection process for the new FBI headquarters.

Marilyn says it wins on all the merits, but emphasized cost and equity over everything else with senator Chris van hollen arguing if Springfield is chosen, it will cost over a $1 billion more to the federal taxpayer. We are talking about a legacy defining choice. Maryland governor westmore and prince George's county executive Angela also Brooks also repeatedly brought up equity concerns the president has promised to address in multiple executive orders. We just right now ask that it be enforced. For now, the scoring puts greater weight on proximity to Quantico than both cost and equity combined, but the governor says they were told GSA and the FBI would go back and be able to reevaluate everything at GSA headquarters and we as team Maryland planned to hold them to that. John dome in WTO P news. Virginia leaders are expected to make their final pitch to the GSA tomorrow morning. Also happening tomorrow, President Biden is expected to unveil his budget proposal in Philadelphia.

We see this as a value statement on what the president sees in the future of this country. Press secretary karine Jean Pierre says key to mister Biden's proposal is an increase in taxes on those making more than $400,000 a year. That is something that Americans believe in. House Republicans who have yet to formally offer their proposals are sure to balk at mister Biden's. Stephen portnoy, CBS News, Washington.

The Strange Behavior of Biden in Connection With the DC Crime Bill
"Washington D.C. was pushing forward a revision of the old criminal code governing the District of Columbia. And because Democrats and left wing Democrats dominate Washington D.C. as they do so many other cities, this update of the criminal code was essentially weakening anti crime provisions in the code. And so for example, it reduced minimum, reduced the maximum sentences that were in the old code. It eliminated nearly all mandatory minimum sentences. Like if you do X, you must get at least 6 months. So you must get at least a year. Those were eliminated. And they expanded the rights of criminals. So what's new? This is really what the left does. This is what Democrats do. And it doesn't seem to matter to them that the crime rate in the city and the cities are high or are soaring. They're like, this is who we are. This is what we do. We are on the side of the criminals. We're going to make life easier for them. We're going to make the hardship less. And so the mayor, muriel Bowser, who was who basically goes, you guys are going too far. I'm going to veto this new criminal code. It turns out the left wing D.C. city council overrode her veto. So this was about to be the new code for Washington, D.C., but guess what? Washington, D.C., according to the law, is under Congress, is under the federal government. So even though the Democrats talk about home rule, the Washington D.C. needs to make its own decisions, govern itself, the simple truth of it is that Congress has every right to pass laws that can not only affect Washington, D.C., but can override decisions made by the city council. It turns out that there is a majority both in the House and the Senate to kill this D.C. criminal code update. In other words, to defeat it, but of course, normally, if Congress passes a law to defeat the D.C. criminal code, Biden could then veto that law. And if you vetoed that law, it would not pass because of course you need a super majority to override a presidential veto. But in a big surprise move, a Biden has said that he will sign the law.

"Stephanie gains Bryant, thanks for being with us. It's looking likely the U.S. Senate will vote this coming week to block the districts new criminal penalties that were adopted by the D.C. council. And it was a mini bombshell around here when we learned President Biden would not be vetoing the measure. D.C. mayor muriel Bowser joined WTO Sean and Anne to discuss the ongoing situation with Congress. We never encourage congressional meddling in the affairs of the District of Columbia. And my concerns with the crime bill, part of it is a code rewrite and other parts of it deal with early release for everybody that have committed certain violent crimes. But the areas of concern that I've expressed to the council, I have also introduced to the council as an amendment. So our issues can be dealt with locally. What kind of impact do you think this could have on the district's bid for statehood down the road? If, in fact, this passes. Well, I think it has very little impact on our statehood discussion right now, let's face it. We have a Republican controlled House of Representatives who have not been supportive or signed on for our statehood resolutions that have passed the House twice in recent years. So I think our focus has to be on continuing to protect our limited home rule, which is already an indignity that we live with each and every day. We're 700,000 taxpaying people, but we don't have we do not have two senators to speak up for us. And our laws have to go through the Congress. So there's really only one solution to that in that statehood. And so until we get the political winds blowing in our direction again with having control of the House and the Senate with people who support democracy for the people of the District of Columbia, then we're going to keep the fight ongoing.

We continue to work with the Congress on the transfer of the land and that has been our posture for the last 8 years.
