we have a long way to go, but we ve come so far and can t quit. you don t fire a guy who is winning. it is not dysfunction, what it is the exchange of ideas. house republicans under speaker kevin mccarthy will unleash a pro-growth agenda to get the economy moving. we need to get to a point where we start evaluating what life without kevin mccarthy looks like. ashley: alexandria hoff has the latest, good morning. alexandria: 11 votes in three days, enough for the history books. we enter day four and kevin mccarthy was asked if the party has been weakened by this process? your power has it undercut the power of the other speakers? it was used over john boehner. i m not doesn t that inherently mean you will be a weaker speaker? no, i would only be a weaker speaker if alexandria: details of a potential deal emerge. given all demands of those resisting a vote for kevin mccarthy, the deal would allow an easier route to oust mccarthy and provides house
they both have a breaking news story to deal with, which you just delivered. everything i know about it is when i just heard you say about it on tv. just give us the short recap of it again, the donald trump apparently reached out to a support staff are at the white house. we don t know the norm of they sport they ve been described is a support staff. or it appears that it is not something that he would ve had a normal relationship with. this person did happen to be in touch with the january 6th committee separately, and so that feels to some people, and again we ll have that conversation later, it feels to some people like potential witness tampering it is been handed over to the justice department to handle it. we will get professional reaction to it in this hour. thank you very much. i did something today that i did not want to do. i knew i had to do it. i watched all of the video released yesterday showing with the police were doing in the hallway of robb elementa
again we ll have that conversation later, it feels to some people like potential witness tampering it is been handed over to the justice department to handle it. we will get professional reaction to it in this hour. thank you very much. i did something today that i did not want to do. but i knew i had to do it. i watched all of the video released yesterday showing with the police were doing in the hallway of robb elementary school, after a mass murderer fired his mass murder weapon in two classrooms. i would not have gotten through that video, i would not have gotten through the first few minutes of that video, if there had not been a very important sound edit in that video. that made it possible to watch it and listen to it. i ll explain that later, as i describe the video. the video does not show any children or teachers at all except for one child, very briefly, one child. he steps into the other end of the hallway, far away from the shooter. and when the child sees the
attorney-client privilege and executive privilege. if you want know how this could possibly happen to a former president, all you have to do is look at the language used in the warrant. it was specifically overly broad. it gave the feds the power to rifle through every inch of the mansion, trump s safe, the master bedroom. even melania s clothes. despite knowing exactly where the documents were located. this wasn t by the book. he said so himself. the department does not take such decision lightly. where possible, it is standard practice to seek less intriewfn means as alternative to a search and to narrowly scope any search that is undertaken. sean: so in the eyes of the doj trump is below the law. he says it s standard practice to be less intrusive. there is nothing more intrusive than having 30 agents in your home for nine hours. it obviously wasn t narrow in scope. they turned his mansion upside down. raided his wife s closet this was calculated. they were looking for
what if the main goal of all of this was just to get that stuff out of mar-a-lago? well, i think that s a question that s on everybody s mind and certainly from where the justice department sits, this was these are these were top secret, classified documents, some of the nation s most, you know, privileged, sort of secrets about national security and military matters and the justice department s top priority in this case was just getting those back. and it s sort of an open question where the investigation heads now but we know that investigators are just beginning to sort of look at the stacks of documents that they have, they have more than 20 boxes to go through so this is going to be a process that takes quite some time. sand it would make sense that they were so worried because this is not really a secure facility. you have had arrests there of foreign nationals who were up to questionable activities. well, you know, one of the main questions that the justice d
