Good evening. I'm Jeff Bennett. I'm the Navasas on assignment. On the

news hour tonight, former President Donald Trump is arraigned in federal

court following his indictment in the January 6th insurrection case.

Former Attorney General Bill Barr gives an insider's take on the latest

Trump indictment. The abuse was on after the election and the abuse was

conducted by Trump. And four years after a mass shooting killed nearly two

dozen people in El Paso, Texas, two people affected by the tragedy reflect

on gun violence and grief.

Welcome to the news hour. It has become a familiar site for the third time

this year. Former President Donald Trump was arraigned on criminal charges.

Today, he was in federal court in Washington just a few blocks from the U.S.

Capitol, where a mob of his supporters rioted on January 6th. And in the same

courthouse where hundreds of participants in that attack have also appeared as

defendants. Mr. Trump pleaded not guilty to four felonies relating to efforts

to overturn the 2020 election and remain in power. Among them, conspiracy to

fraud the United States obstruction of an official proceeding and conspiracy

against the right to vote. Mr. Trump spoke to reporters after his court

appearance today. When you look at what's happening, this is a persecution of a

political opponent. This was never supposed to happen in America. This is the

persecution of the person that's leading by very, very substantial numbers in

the Republican primary and leading Biden by a lot. So if you can't beat him,

you persecute him or you prosecute him. We can't let this happen in America.
