Tomorrow on the creation of an independent Bipartisan Commission to investigate the deadly january 6th capitol riot but gop leader Kevin Mccarthy trying to derail the commission before it gets off the ground, now saying hes opposed to it, siding with republicans who are trying to downplay the violence that day. Its important to point out that mccarthy initially blamed trump for helping to incite the insurrection. The president bears responsibility for wednesdays attack on congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding. But then two weeks later, mccarthy completely changed his tune. I dont believe he provoked if you listen to what he said at the rally. And lets not forget that mccarthy made a pilgrimage to maralago to meet with trump and beg for his blessings. So now hes trying to whitewash the january 6th attack and hoping to block the investigation altogether. And tonight the number two republican in the house, gop whip steve scalise, urging members to vote it down. Lots more on these developments just ahead. In the battle against covid19, the cdc saying 15 states reporting zero covid deaths as 60 of American Adults have had at least one dose of the vaccine. But why are mask mandates so confusing . And President Biden pitching his american jobs and infrastructure plan at a ford plant in michigan and taking a swipe at the previous administration. And they announced infrastructure week and announced it and announced it and announced it every week for four years and didnt do a damn thing. Didnt get the job done. Folks, the rest of the world is moving fast. Theyre moving ahead. Theyre not waiting for the United States of america. Government, labor, industry working together have to step up, and we have a playbook that will work. Lets bring in now the transportation secretary, pete buttigieg. Secretary, thank you so much. Appreciate you joining us. So you met with thanks for having me. The gop wants to stick to things like roads and bridges and Mitch Mcconnell is saying no more than 800 billion. Are you remotely close to that kind of agreement . I think we had a good conversation. It was productive. Obviously were starting from different places, but thats how a negotiation works. What i will say is that everyone in that room cares about infrastructure, cares about this country. And what we need to do, as the president said, is make sure that america is competitive going forward. We cant be coasting off of infrastructure decisions and investments that were made 50 years ago, 100 years ago, and expect to remain the leading economy in the world. So theres a lot of motivation to get this done. Theres a lot of impatience. You also saw that reflected in the president pointing out that weve been here before in terms of big expectations about infrastructure. This time we really have to deliver. And i think everyone, no matter what party theyre from or what part of the country theyre from, one thing ive noticed is that everybody in congress is from somewhere. Theyre going home to constituents who are impatient for action, and i think that creates a lot of propulsion for these negotiations that are going on in the days and weeks ahead. So youre saying theres a chance . Thats right. Yeah. I mean, look, we know theres a big difference in perspective. We get that. Again, thats how a negotiation works. You come in with different perspectives and see where we can go. Thats part of the conversation were having as an administration. Also the conversation in the committees that the republicans and democrats are having with each other as part of regular order. And i think theres every reason to believe that we can get something done here, but we cant take forever to do it. Time is of the essence. You cant let infrastructure week be a punchline again. Theres got to be some way to pay for it. The president wants to raise the Corporate Tax rate 25 to 28 . Republicans say no way. So fine. Assuming thats the case or just a ploy on their part, are you prepared to move forward because the truth is they didnt care about the ballooning deficits from the trump tax cut. Well, one thing ill say about Infrastructure Investments is that they can pay for themselves. But lets be clear. The president has put forward a way to fully fund this, proving mathematically really that we absolutely can afford to do this as a country. More than that, we can afford to do this while still having corporate rates be lower than theyve been for most of your and my lifetime and while not increasing taxes on anybody making less than 400,000 a year. So we think the president s approach is the right one. But, look, were having conversations because we recognize that there are other ideas. The president wants to hear other ideas. And the only red line ive heard so far from him on payfors is his commitment to making sure we arent raising taxes on anybody making less than 400,000 bucks a year. I want to talk to you about some other news. I want to talk about this january 6th commission and the republicans full embrace of the big lie and the attempts to memoryhole the events of that day. I know the Biden Administration is focusing on policy, but are democrats doing enough to push back against this . Well, look, the house has a job to do, and theyre going to approach it in the way that they can arrive at. It doesnt change what happened that day although i think its important for us as a country to reckon with what happened that day. It also doesnt change the focus that we have right now, which is knowing that the best thing that we can do, that this administration can do to help bring the American People together is to deliver. And thats why theres such a sense of urgency. Theres a sense of urgency around getting the rescue plan through and now looking ahead to the jobs plan, we have got to make sure that the American People can feel, regardless of how they voted, regardless of what their politics are, that life is Getting Better for them because we are delivering better infrastructure whether its roads and bridges or pipes and internets or making child care or elder care more affordable. Thats going to be our focus. I know you said congress has a job to do. Its up to congress. I get that, but you know politics. Should there be a full investigation on capitol hill into what happened, come hell or high water . The future of our democracy could depend on it. We are living in a posttruth, postfact society right now, and its important for people to know the truth. I think getting the facts is important, and dealing and wrestling with the implications of those facts is important. How will it be done, whether congress is prepared to do it, will be up to congress. But one way or the other, our country has to move forward in a way that recognizes that facts do in fact matter. The truth does, in fact, matter. And peoples lived experiences that are undeniable are at the heart of what were trying to do at a policy level definitely in my department and really across this administration. Listen, youve been, you know, in politics for a while, and ive been doing this for a long time, but ive never seen a divide like this. These people are the same people, secretary, that you need to negotiate with on these deals, and they are totally out of touch with reality. What happens if you negotiate with republicans in good faith, and you cant reach a deal . Will you do it without them, and how will you get senator manchin or others who are insisting on bipartisanship how do you get them onboard . Well, i think that rightly, there are a lot of members in our party who expect us to do absolutely everything we can to get a good bipartisan deal. At the end of the day, the president s been clear, and this is the only other red line ive heard from him in this process. That doing nothing is not an option. So we need to make sure that we do everything we can to get there. Todays conversations were part of that, and a lot of whats going on, especially in these days, is part of that effort. And i can tell you its a goodfaith effort. I can tell you that ideas are being exchanged. They may be different ideas, but theyre being put forward in good faith to see where the overlap is. There really is a lot of meaningful overlap. Theres also a lot of meaningful difference. Im hopeful this will get us to a bipartisan place. The bottom line is we have to do something because our competitors arent waiting. Chinas not waiting. And the laws of physics arent waiting. Right now on the border of arkansas and tennessee, youve got a bridge i40 costing probably millions a day in economic impacts. Thats just one bridge in one part of the country. You multiply that out, and we simply cannot allow this infrastructure week, month, season, whatever you want to call it, to also pass without action. Sorry. I didnt mean to interrupt you. We have a delay here. I have noticed that the president is framing this increasingly as a National Security issue, focusing on china for example. As you said, competitors, other countries cant wait. Is this a way to make the case to centrists and independents to think beyond roads and bridges . I think so. Look, i mean if weve been reminded of anything in the last few months, its that our Critical Infrastructure takes a lot of different shapes, and its vulnerabilities affect our way of life. Whether were talking about the Colonial Pipeline and what a cyberattack on a private company did to the eastern seaboard or whether were talking about the storms in texas and what the vulnerability of our electric grid showed and did for so many texans. Case after case where we have seen new kinds of threats, cyber, climate, and Global PublicHealth Threats affecting our security and our way of life, i think its demonstrating why we need to think big. In a way this is actually traditional. For example, nothing is more traditional today than roads and bridges, right . The interstate highway system. But part of why eisenhower believed it was important to have an interstate highway system is he recognized that d america more secure. That a better connected country is a safer and more secure country. The same is true now of the internet just as it was then of the interstate highway system. Secretary buttigieg, thank you for your time. Thanks for having me on. An update now on the sham audit of votes in Maricopa County, arizona. Auditors hired by the state senate backtracking tonight from claims that a key database had been deleted from county election servers. All of this, however, may be a moot point because subsequently ive been able to recover all of those deleted files, and i have access to that data. So, um, with that being said, do you do we do you still need to get that database from the county, or did that rebuilding or recovery that you did does that have the information you currently need for that database . I have the information i need from the Recovery Efforts of the data. Im so happy now to bring in this gentleman to talk about it. The Maricopa County record. Mr. Recordrecorder, i appreciat joining us this evening. Let me get this straight. The auditors running this sham recount who claim that files were deleted now say that theyve miraculously recovered those files. But to be clear, the files were never deleted, is that right . So, don, you brought me in on a good afternoon because, yes, this did just happen where the very thing that they had accused us of on wednesday night of last week and sent us into a tailspin trying to figure this all out, it turns out to be exactly what we said, which was that we never deleted these files. They were always there. You know, you heard what they said. That didnt amount to an apology exactly, but at least they acknowledged that the files are there, that my employees, my team, me personally have not violated the law. Can you explain to you know, i try to sit here every night, stephen, and explain to people what the truth is, what reality is, and, listen, its been frustrating for quite some time. Youre in that position now having to do something similar. What is this like for you and for the people who work with you . Its incredibly frustrating. Were trying so hard, but as you just said to the secretary, were operating in a posttruth world in some capacities in which no matter how much data and information you provide, you cant convince them. And how are you supposed to argue with that if you cant use facts and logic . For instance, Something Like these deleted files. I promise you there will be people emailing me months from now saying, what about those deleted files . Or dominion. Dominion is a case closed. There is nothing to it, but i get an email a day at least saying, are you on the take of dominion . Has dominion completely overtaken the elections . Listen, how do you argue with someone when you cant use facts and logic . You just said it. The former president has seized on the false claim. You called his comment unhinged. Why is the party indulging the former president on this big lie . None of it makes sense. Its all a lie. Because it stinks. Ive already lost a few people that i thought were friends. Ive already gotten scores of angry emails who said, youre a traitor. You know, these are my friends, the very people who are showing up even to this audit are, you know, fundamentally good people, but they have been led to believe otherwise, and they are being led by a company that indulges in conspiracy theories with this cyber ninjas. And i dont know if well be friends again after that, and thats not something i relish. So i can understand, i guess, why other republicans make that decision. I did what ultimately i felt was right. The entire Maricopa County governing body has done the same. We are united. We will come out. We will stand on this. And, you know, whatever the consequences may be politically, were going to go with it because its right. Stephen, i have friends that ive had since college in louisiana, some of whom ive had to let go because they i mean they literally say crazy things that i cannot explain to them that what theyre saying and what theyre believing is nuts. So i understand where youre coming from. Its sad. Im going to miss them. But i cant i dont have room for liars and Conspiracy Theory believers in my life. When these auditors are looking for things like traces of bamboo on ballots, what is the craziest Conspiracy Theory youve heard . Is that it . No. No. The craziest Conspiracy Theory by far is that one of the board of supervisors who happens to own a very large chicken farm took ballots from the 2020 election, fed them to 165,000 chickens, and then had them incinerated. Now, what actually happened is that this poor man had a serious fire at one of his barns, and 165,000 chickens did die. But the idea that they had ballots inside of them, i mean, you know, legitimate people indulge this. A prominent member of the state legislature indulged this in a conversation, and its just you know, what is going on here . Thats facially laughable. Look, i dont want to who is whos the Republican Party right now . Like what i mean i dont know. I think well figure that out in 2022. But, look, that stuff like the bamboo and the chickens and the uv lights, you know, if youre going to do that, you know, okay. I disagree. But what really crosses the line for me is when you accuse the hardworking people who have gone through just heck and back over the last year running an election in the face of a pandemic. When you accuse my rank and file, when you accuse my i. T. Department of fraudulently, unlawfully deleting files, no. That goes too far. Stephen, you can say hell on this program. But, listen all right. I wasnt sure. I was i was raised in utah, so i get it. The colloquialism. I thought it was that or the midwest somewhere. To heck and back. Listen, Maricopa County has twice audited the vote and its upheld its integrity. What do you think should happen at this interest, stephen . I dont know. Im scared. I dont know what good comes out of this audit at this point. I think given the nature of the principal auditor on this project, i think theres at least twothirds of the state that wouldnt believe anything they say. And i think theres, you know, a third of the state that has reached its conclusions, you know, whatever may come basically. I dont see how were changing that. Thats a scary thought moving into 2022. My only hope is that if enough republicans and enough leaders come out and dont indulge these anymore and dont, you know, sort of dance around the issue but say, im sorry, but what you have been told about dominion, for instance, is factually inaccurate, and, you know, im sorry for you, and im sorry youve been put in that situation. But we need to move forward because thats inaccurate, and you need to stop parroting that. Stephen richer, there need to be more people like you speaking out. I thank you for coming on this program. Youre welcome back anytime, whenever the hell you want or the heck you want. All right. Thank you very much. Thank you. The assault on the vote across the country. A party totally enthralled to a disgraced former president who lost the house, lost the senate, and lost the white house. Can the gop survive . Plus the d. A. Says that deputies who shot and killed andrew brown jr. Were justified. Were going to look at what the video shows. Mr. Browns death, while tragic, was justified because mr. Browns actions caused three deputies with the Pasquotank County sliv s spots . Its not your dishwashers fault. Simply add finish jetdry 3in1 to rinse, dry and shine your dishes.

There are auctions going on right now, so what are you waiting for . Loyalty to only one man and a nationwide effort to restrict Voting Rights is todays gop a danger to democracy . Lets discuss now with cnn economics commentator Catherine Rampell and cnn political commentator scott jennings. Good evening to both of you. All right. Katherine, were going to put up this poll. Its a cbs poll that finds that almost half of Republican Voters believe the party should prioritize changing voting rules to win elections. Dont forget the hundreds of restrictive voting bills in the works or already signed into law across this country by republicans. Is the gop now the anti about half of the party has given up on democracy as that poll shows. Given the choice between asking their party to develop more ideas and policies that appeal to a broader swath of voters or alternatively trying to make it harder for opponents to vote, about half chose the latter, you know, which seems fundamentally at odds with the premise of democracy, that you earn the right to govern by appealing to a majority of the public. It does make you wonder, you know, what happened to the party of ideas . There isnt even an attempt here anymore to try to stand for anything that will win over voters. Its really just about, you know, trying to make it harder for people who are unlikely to support you, people who are maybe wearing a different jersey than you, to cast their ballot. Scott, listen, i know its been a tough time for you as a republican because frankly i think members of the party have been doing things that go against what you think traditional republicans should do. But, listen, i want to know what you think. Is the gop doing anything now but attacking and restricting democracy . Well, look, we can have a long argument about whether some of these laws that have been controversial actually restrict, you know, voter access, which has been a big flash point. Its easier to vote in georgia than delaware where the president is from. So we argue that out, and people have differing opinions. But i think catherines point about the core of the partys ideology, the core of the partys policy initiate ives is good one. Republicans didnt write a platform at the Convention Last year, and we are having a hard time, i think, articulating a vision for one of the ten things we stand for. I do think republicans in congress do appear to at least try to be coalescing around some kind of opposition to the biden agenda although its not fully coherent yet. But to me, the midterms and the president ial election are two different animals. You could probably win the midterms at least in the house for republicans without a coherent vision. But winning the white house back in 2024 without a platform and trying to relitigate the 2020 election, i think, would be folly and would lead to another defeat. You just heard from stephen richer. Hes a republican standing on the side of truth. I wonder why there arent more stephen richers out there, especially considering what you said about, you know, delaware and georgia and whatever. The point is its not just because delaware has, you know, stricter voting laws than georgia. It doesnt mean that the ones in georgia havent been restricted with drop boxes, with hours, with giving people not allowing them to get water and all that and food in line. And among other things. Im trying to figure out why republicans think that perhaps these laws, one should be stricter than the other, and why arent there more people standing up like stephen richer out there . Well, i mean my view is the states ought to be able to make their own laws. I dont think we should have federalization of elections, and that is a core conservative principle. Federalism in this case really does mean letting the states do what they want to do on their own election laws. So theyre all going to be different because of that. You know, my general view is and ive heard a lot of republicans say this. It ought to be easy to vote and hard to cheat. And so thats a pretty good principle, and i think thats what a lot of republicans want. And i think that should be the core of what youre trying to do with election laws. I dont think its a good idea to try to go in and overturn elections after theyve been fairly conducted and counted, and i dont think its a good idea to tell people something thats not true, which is if not but for this bamboo, still be the president. Or the chickens. Which is kind of a crazy thing to say. I think this whole debate, don, issues get conflated. There are some things that are important to look at and some things that are crazy that should not be looked at. If you dont have some sort of National Standard for what should be allowed, then you get the extremes. Youll get extremes from the states, scott. I mean look at whats happening in arizona now. Im sorry. Go ahead, catherine. I was just going to say it seems like the only divide right now within the Republican Party on any real policy issue is about whether the party should be trying to overturn the will of the voters expost or exante. There are people looking for the bamboo fibers and filing these nutty lawsuits and doing other things i think part of the party sees as relatively crass. But then the rest of the party, even the one whos have been critical of the conspiracy theories, are generally getting behind these efforts to restrict access to the franchise, whether its about like in arizona, for example. I dont know about the guest you had on just now, but the governor of arizona backed this recent law to make it easier to purge people from the voting rolls. In georgia, a number of the state officials who had been held up basically as heroes for democracy, you know, small d democrats who were upper case r republicans, people who were held us as heroes still supported that bill in georgia that will restrict access to the franchise and make it easier to overturn the results of elections. So the only divide is about whether you make it harder for people who oppose you to cast their ballots in advance or afterward by throwing out their votes. Its just not a good place for a party to be in, especially if you care about the future of our republic, you care about socalled democratic backsliding. These people are running into the arms of authoritarians openly. Ive got to run but this is a concern. I understand when you talk about states rights and all the people i get what people talk about. But when you have 7 in 10 republicans who dont believe that joe biden won the election fairly and then you have twothirds of republicans saying that it is important for republicans to be loyal to donald trump when its about there needs to be some sort of standard to bring people back into a truthful society rather than a posttruth society. And i think you need some guardrails, especially when people dont know what to believe right now. Thats all im saying, scott. Yeah. Look, those are two different issues. I will just say i think were in a 20year cycle of extreme partisans in both parties not finding president s to be legitimate. You know, certainly democrats didnt think bush was. Republicans didnt think obama was. Democrats didnt think trump was. Scott, theres nothing like this. Scott, theres nothing like this. There was no coup. Theres no insurrection. Hang on, catherine. This is not a both sides thing. There are politics all the time. Theres politics all the time. You cannot compare what democrats did with george bush or with anybody else to what is happening now with donald trump. The biggest attack on our democracy on the capitol by americans since the founding of this country. You cannot compare that. You have a president you have people who are saying that the election was stolen when it was the most secure election in history. Yeah, every election youre going to have democrats who dont like if theres a republican president or republicans who dont like if theres a democratic president. But to compare whats happened with former president s to now, its apples and oranges. Its not the same thing. Its an unfair comparison, scott. If its okay for me to finish, i guess i will. Not if youre going to compare the two, no. Not if youre going to compare whats happening now with other things. Thats a fake comparison. We are on the tail end of a rampup of this year and its gone far beyond any of the previous cycles. You have seen this increase level by level, and now its gone to an extreme level that led to what happened on january 6th. The question is what level will it go to . That is principally what i am concerned about. But you cant blame that on democrats. Thats all republicans. This is all republicans now. Im not blaming january 6th on democrats. But if you think democrats thought george bush was a legitimately elected president , you ought to go back and reread okay. Democrats democrats were clearly very upset about the fact that george w. Bush was essentially put in office because of a Supreme Court decision. But there was no attempted coup. You know, there was no attempt to, like, suddenly make it much harder for republican areas to cast ballots. The election reforms that came up after that were about updating voting machines, you know, to make it easier to vote. You know, you wouldnt have hanging chads and things like, that but it wasnt about purging the voter rolls. So its a very different reaction to, again, a contested election. But one where everybody recognized that it was a legitimate election nonetheless. I got to run. Go ahead, scott. You want to saying . Something. Democrats did not recognize that it was a legitimate election. They still dont. Nancy pelosi in 2017 oh, my god. Scott. All right, scott. Its not the same thing. Scott, youre not this is the reason why the Republican Party this is the reason why where we are where we are because you keep pointing fingers at the other side. This is not a democratic problem. This is not a problem for democrats. This is a republican right now. This is who the Republican Party is. Own it. Thats what it is. This has nothing to do with politics as usual, things that happen, hanging chads. Nothing to do with the price of tea right now. This is a republican trumpist problem. I got to go.

We have some big developments to discuss in the case of andrew brown jr. , the North Carolina man shot to death last month by sheriffs deputies. The District Attorney saying browns death was justified. Mr. Browns death, while tragic, was justified because mr. Browns actions caused three deputies with the Pasquotank CountySheriffs Office to reasonably believe it was necessary to use deadly force to protect themselves and others. Browns family condemning the decision, calling it a slap in the face and demanding the release of all body camera video related to the incident. The three deputies who fired shots at brown will be reinstated and retrained. Joining me now is chance lynch, a brown family attorney. Thank you for joining us, sir. I appreciate it. Our time is a little short but i wanted to get your response. Theres a lot to talk about today. It was the first time that some of the footage has been shown publicly. I want to take a look and then well talk. Here it is. Go, go, go [ bleep ]. [ bleep ]. Turn the [ bleep ] around. Listen, we watched someone die there, so its tough to watch. Based on what you saw, sir, today, what is your response to the d. A. s conclusion . Don, first thanks for having me. This is an important issue. Let me say this. What we saw today was a miscarriage of justice. We saw an elected District Attorney who took an oath to protect the citizens of Pasquotank County, to serve as the minister of justice we saw him miscarry justice, and our legal team feels that he went in with the intent never to charge these officers and never hold them accountable. Thats what we saw today. The family is demanding that all of the body cam footage be released. The sheriff wants it released too. Whats going on . Shouldnt this be about transparency . Absolutely. Thats what weve been saying all along. We have been advocating for accountability, transparency. If there are so many discrepancies between what were saying we saw and what the District Attorney is saying he saw and what now the world has seen, then release all of the video. Were still demanding that. In fact, we filed a petition today asking for the unredacted version of all images and videos to be released immediately as well as the sbi report. The d. A. Brought up a lot in this press conference today. He talked about Andrew Browns past, criminal history, even disparaging the legal team. Whats the familys reaction to all of that . You can imagine what this family is feeling to have witnessed and to see their father ambushed by the police in an attempt to save his life and get away from them. And then to suffer and endure a public execution at the hands of those who took an oath to protect him, you can imagine the Emotional Distress theyre under and what theyre experiencing. Were just trying to support them, to stand with them, and advocate for them the best that we can. Chance lynch, thank you. Well have you back. Thanks, don, for having me. Absolutely. 15 states reporting zero coronavirus deaths. What does this mean for you and how you go about your day . Were going to tell you. Thats next.

The cdc reporting the lowest daily case numbers since june of 2020 and about 60 of people 18 and older have at least one shot. But the cdcs changing tune on masks has a lot of people confused. Politicians pulling stunts. Theres talk with dr. Jonathan reiner, the cnn medical analyst. I like to call him our nightly house call because he always takes care of us here. Good evening, doctor, by the way. I want you to look at this. Just a few hours ago, a group of republicans protested on the house floor, taking off their masks. Most of them havent gotten vaccinated or at least wont tell cnn that they have been vaccinated or if theyve been vaccinated. What message do stunts like these send, doctor . You know, i spend my days working with some of the most courageous people youve ever seen, people who have basically run into the epicenter of the pandemic for the last 15 years to try and save the lives of other people. I cannot imagine what it would be like to work in an environment with so many cowards. Most of those people have been vaccinated. Most of those republican legislators have been vaccinated. They were given tickets at the front of the line before almost any other american, they were vaccinated. But they dont have the courage to tell their constituents theyve been vaccinated because they know its unpopular. So what theyre saying is they would rather not convince somebody who may die of this virus to get vaccinated because its politically unpopular. A bunch of cowards. Yeah. I think this answers the question. I just want to say we did reach out. Every house member, Democratic House member, 100 of democrats said that they are vaccinated. Only 95 out of 211 republicans will tell cnn if theyve been vaccinated, and its for the reasons that you just said. Do you agree with that . Absolutely. Okay. Absolutely. So President Biden touring a ford facility today with his mask on. Thats because ford required masks at the plant even though michigan lifted their mask mandate for fully vaccinated people last week. Its now coming down to these private businesses to make their own rules, their own decisions about if they want people to wear masks. What should people be prepared for here . I think people should be prepared that businesses are going to require people to wear masks, and i think eventually businesses are going to require employees to be vaccinated. I think the president got it right today. Michigan law allows businesses to mandate masks. Ford mandates masks, and the president wore one when inside the building. Outside, he took the mask off for Photo Opportunities and when he rode around in the truck. And i would encourage people to do exactly what the president did today. If you go to a Grocery Store and they want you to wear a mask, put a mask on. Dont make a big deal out of it. Its nothing. Right, or to target or costco or, you know, wherever Ricky Schroder might be going. Just do what the employee tells you. Just wear a damn mask. All right, doctor. Thank you very much.

Today the republican governor of maryland, larry hogan, signing a bill that immediately repeals a state song. For those who dont know, maryland, my maryland, shares a tune with the christmas standard, o, christmas tree. But the song celebrates marylands confederate past includes lyrics calling president lincoln a despot and a tyrant. Its been the official state song but the heritage project says it was adapted from a poem written by a man james ryder randall, and he was a confid rat sympathizer. A Spokesman SaysGovernor Hogan never really liked the song, so now its a part of history. Thanks for watching. Our coverage continues.
