good morning. and welcome to way too early. on this tuesday, june 21st, i m jonathan lemire. thanks for joining us. we are now hours away from the fourth public hearing by the january 6th committee. this afternoon, we will hear much more about this infamous phone call. all i want to do is this. i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. so what are we going to do here, folks? i only need 11,000 votes. fellas, i need 11,000 votes. give me a break. that was former president trump calling georgia secretary of state brad raffensperger days before the insurrection, pressuring him to find the votes needed to win georgia. 11,780. raffensperger is one of three republicans testifying today. the other two are raffensperger s top deputy, gabe sterling and arizona house speaker rusty bowers who says trump and rudy giuliani called him after the election asking for help to overturn president biden s victory in his state. we re also goi
focusing on the elaborate effort by then president trump to pressure state officials to overturn the 2020 presidential election. plus the latest on the bipartisan group of senators negotiating new gun legislation in a moment we ll speak with chris coons of delaware on just how close senators are on a final bill. also ahead, we re keeping an eye on wall street as stock futures soared overnight following a brutal week. we ll get a live report from cnbc. and it is primary day for several states across the country which means kornacki is camped out at the big board. he s angry. and i ll tell you what, jonathan lemire, we have a big race today in alabama. you have donald trump who of course always had a prerogative of changing his mind when it looks like his first election is on the way to losing. he chose mo brooks who was there on january 6 trying to whip up the masses to attack the capitol or so some people believe. on the other side, one of richard shelby s staff members.
