that prompted zucker to fire chris cuomo and the state investigation of his brother, andrew cuomo, allison gollust worked earlier for the then-governor. zucker found cuomo if improperrerly aided his embattled brother. he didn t try to get zucker fired, but his lawyers took some steps as a warning shot in the negotiations to have cnn pay off cuomo s contract. as this source put it, chris dropped the knife that was used by zucker s enemies. the cuomo camp want to contend that zucker dumped his biggest star for a conflict of interest, but with jeff gone, that argument evaporates as a way of cuomo collecting his remaining $18 million. by the way, msnbc, which loves to attack fox, has not aired a single word on zucker s ouster. nothing to see here. jeff who? that is pretending a friend ask one-time boss w an absolute dereliction of duty. the larger issue is how zucker transformed cnn from there a reporter-driven network to a left-leaning outlet that crusaded against donald trump.
it is good to be with you, everyone. i am ayman mohyeldin. for nearly a year now, we have been healing all about the effort that the u.s. has been putting into restoring the 2015 iran nuclear deal. we have been told how important it is that time is of the essence that the iranians are being stubborn, but that we are being closer to restoring the agreement, president trump killed back in 2018. in fact, just last month, that s a little bit of the headlines we re saying. but now, that whole narrative is changing. the u.s. iran and five other countries that are party to this deal are in the middle of the eighth round of talks in vienna. according to reporting from the wall street journal, u.s. officials are now saying that iran s nuclear capabilities are to advanced to even restore a key goal in the original deal. the so-called breakout period that iran would need to build a nuclear weapon has now decreased significantly, less than the 12 months that underpinned the initial pac
said she condemned mcdonald s saying, as americans, we must acknowledge those tragic events, we cannot allow a false narrative to be created. we cannot allow the calling it legitimate political discourse is wrong. she clarified, the violence at the capitol, is not legitimate political discourse. she was talking about the bogus claims, and the fraud that had been the foundation of the republican party, since election day 2020, they are not legitimate political discourse either. meanwhile, the new york times has new details about the january six committee, and how it has adopted prosecution tactics, in conducting its investigation. the committee does not actually have any power, to pursue criminal charges on its own. but, it is clear that its members understand the high stakes of their work, and ultimately, want accountability. that it is why, it has been aggressive and relentless in its work. the committee has interviewed nearly 500 witnesses. it has issued more than 100 sub
mission he undertook at the direction of harry belafonte. trust, you don t want to miss this. i m jonathan capehart. this is the sunday show. this sunday we remember the advice of the great maya angelou, when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. so, if it acts like the mob, according to new reporting from the new york times , the house select committee investigating january 6th is borrowing techniques from federal prosecutions, employing aggressive tactics. this panel has testimonies from 475 witnesses and has received 60,000 pages of documents including records that prove congressman jim jordan did speak with donald trump the morning of january 6th. as we learn more about these private interactions, pressure is mounting to hear from those who were close to the seat of power, like former attorney general bill barr, who the new york times reports was in the white house in december 2020 as trump considered using the justice department to seize
capabilities to mount a significant military operation into ukraine. and we have been working hard to prepare a response. in a moment i m going to talk to bill taylor, former u.s. ambassador to ukraine. few people know as much about this region than he does. also, a republican party attempt to dismiss what happened on january 6th as, quote, legitimate political discourse, is being met with a growing chorus of critics from both sides of the aisle. from my front row seat, i did not see a lot of legitimate political discourse. when there s a conflict, when the party is taking an approach or saying things that i think are just absolutely wrong, i think it s my responsibility as an alaskan senator speaking out for alaskans to just speak the truth. we need more republican leaders to stand up because unity is going to be the antidote against what we saw on january 6th. coming up, we re going to look at the potential political impact of the gop fixation on normalizing the c
