Squawk Talk

On November 25, 2020, I was fortunate enough to speak with Norman, Oklahoma's mayor, Breea Clark. Due to the hectic-natured holiday season made all the more chaotic by the pandemic, the episode was lost deep within the Squawk archives. That is, until now. Finding the balance between public service and family, Mayor Clark has faced death threats, an impassioned recall campaign, radicalizing political strife and above all, waging the city's fight against Coronavirus.

While working in the Secret Service, Darin Kinder's life was put to risk, when the building directly across the street was attacked on September 11, 2001. In fact, Darin Kinder was helping people evacuate the World Trade Center and was inside the building just thirteen minutes before it collapsed. He shares a compelling testimony of what the tragic day entailed for him and reflects on the lessons it has taught him. Darin has been awarded the Secret Service's Medal of Valor for heroism and still works as a Secret Service agent.
