Auschwitz

Rep. Clay Higgins seemed to be using the Auschwitz video to make the case for a stronger military and homeland resolve. The Auschwitz Memorial slammed the video, saying the site is "not a stage."

Reinhold Hanning was sentenced last June to five years in prison in connection with the murder of 170,000 people at the Nazi concentration camp.

Pope Francis spent his time at the former Nazi concentration camp in near-total silence to honor the more than 1 million people who were systematically killed there.

Reinhold Hanning, a former death camp guard, told victims in the courtroom, "I am sorry." He said he has been silent all his life about his role as part of the Nazi killing machine from 1942 to 1944.

Last month, we reported on a mug that hid jewelry from Nazi eyes. Now a family shares their own story of a tea canister carried from Poland to Siberia to America — with the possibility of gold inside.

In his opening statement to a court in Germany, Oskar Groening, 93, said the judges must decide on his "criminal liability." He has been charged with 300,000 counts of accessory to murder.

About 300 survivors of the Nazi camp are attending the ceremony with German and Austrian leaders. But attention is also on the absence of Russia's president, whose countrymen liberated Auschwitz.
