Speaker 2: News twenty nine degrees in Boston at eleven o'clock. Good morning,

3
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: i'ms Suzanne Sansville. Here's what's happening well here from Boston

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 2: Mayor Michelle wo this afternoon on the city's response to

5
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: that big snowstorm we had nearly two weeks ago. It

6
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: was the eighth largest snowfall on record for the city,

7
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 2: with more than twenty three inches. WU is defending the

8
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: city snow removal process, saying hundreds of workers have been

9
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: out every day clearing snow since the storm hit January

10
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 2: twenty fifth. Some are criticizing WU, saying snow is still

11
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 2: clogging streets and sidewalks. Her news conference is at twelve thirty.

12
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 2: We'll bring you her comments here on WBZ news Radio,

13
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: or you can stream us on the iHeartRadio app. A

14
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 2: suspect in the twenty twelve attack on a US compound

15
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 2: in Benghazi, Libya is now in US custody. Attorney General

16
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: Pam Bondi made the announcement this morning.

17
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 3: I'm proud to announce that the FBI has arrested one

18
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 3: of the key participants behind the Bengazi attack Zubar Albakosh

19
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 3: landed at Andrews Air Force Base at three am this morning.

20
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 3: He is in our custody.

21
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 2: The attack killed four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, and

22
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: immediately became a divisive political issue. Republicans challenged then President

23
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on security at

24
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 2: the facility, the military response to the violence, and the

25
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 2: Obama administration's changing narrative about who was responsible. The White

26
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: Houses responding to comments made by former advisors Steve Bannon

27
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: on his podcast Tuesday, Bannon called on the Trump administration

28
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 2: to deploy ICE agents to polling places for the mid

29
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 2: term elections in November. White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt

30
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 2: did not rule that out.

31
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 4: I can't guarantee that an ICE agent won't be around

32
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 4: a polling location in November. I mean, that's frankly, a

33
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 4: very silly hypothetical question. But what I can tell you

34
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 4: is I haven't heard the President discuss any formal plans

35
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 4: to put ICE outside of polling locations. It's a disingenuous question.

36
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 2: According to the Brennan Center for Justice, it's illegal under

37
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: federal and state laws for federal law enforcement agents to

38
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: patrol polling places, except if forces are needed to repel

39
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 2: armed enemies of the US. Well, President Trump apparently wants

40
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 2: a few more places to bear his name. ABC's Jonathan

41
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: Carl explains.

42
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 5: Two sources familiar with the conversation that President Trump had

43
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 5: with Senate Leader Chuck Schumer last month tell me that

44
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 5: Trump told Schumer that he'd be willing to unfreeze sixteen

45
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 5: billion dollars in funding for a major infrastructure project in

46
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 5: New York if Schumer would agree to rename New York's

47
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 5: Penn Station and Washington's Dullest airport after Donald Trump.

48
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 2: Those same sources say Schumer rejected the president's offer. The

49
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 2: forecast mostly cloudy today, a couple of late day and

50
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,280

Speaker 2: into Saturday night as winds gusted over forty miles per hour.

58
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 2: On Sunday, the sun returns but doesn't do much for

59
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 2: the temps. Blustery and cold, with a high of sixteen

60
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: real field temps well below zero. On Monday, mostly sunny

61

00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: year in the making.

Speaker 1: Boston's Snooze Radio.

84
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: Okay, so the Patriots have had a great season, but

85
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 2: according to a new study, fans fared pretty well too.

86
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: According to Vegas Insider, the Patriots where the NFL's least

87
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: stressful team for fans. The study measured how emotionally demanding

88
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: it was to follow each team based on wins and losses, drive,

89
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 2: impacting penalties, injuries, close games, and online fan commentary. Vegas

90
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,799
Speaker 2: Insider says the Patriots had fewer late game moments, steady

91
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 2: ball control, and low fan negativity. Los Angeles Rams fans

92
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 2: had the second least stressful season. The Dallas Cowboys, Indianapolis Colts,

93
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 2: and New York Giants had the most stressed out fans.

94
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 2: Luigi Mangioni is back in court in his state murder

95
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: case as the judge weighs the timeline of his probable trial.

96
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 7: While a judge last week's scheduled Mangoni's federal trial to

97
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 7: begin in the fall. Prosecutors of the Manhattan District Attorney's

98
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 7: Office argue the state case should go first and have

99
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,559
Speaker 7: asked for July fet trial date. Mangoni's lawyers have pushed

100
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 7: back on the request for a summer trial, calling it

101
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 7: unrealistic and arguing their team needs more time to prepare.

102
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 7: A judge will hear arguments this morning to potentially decide

103
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 7: whether the state or the federal case will go first.

104
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,760
