supreme court it might be a little different story even though the law right now is against us. so why don t we try to cut a deal and at least allow me to shield some of these conversations? something like that because he doesn t really have a strong hand to play. so to that point, betsy, this idea of deal cutting, does it tell us something about trump s fears about the doj probe possibly closing in on him and could they, his team, be aware of people flipping like, for example, mark meadows? i don t want to speculate, but what it tells us for sure is that trump s lawyers are taking this investigation seriously and that they accept the reality that it s no longer just a probe of the people who engaged in violence at the capitol building on january 6th, but that it s also moving full steam ahead into what we might call the white collar arena. full steam ahead into this
just heard into this battle where sidney powell said the president says see what i have to deal with, these people don t support me, they are not giving me options at this point, and flynn and powell sort of saying that they can provide these other options, they are talking about, you know, thermostats and links to the voting machines and why they should be seized and bill barr had said he did not see any evidence that would allow the d.o.j. to go further into that investigation to seize any machines. painted a vivid picture, john and sandra, of who was happening in the room and the case they are making, is because that was such an unsatisfactory and chaotic night, the case they are making is that led the then president donald trump to tweet, you know, jan 6, be there, it will be wild, and reach out over twitter and make sure people came to make their feelings known, and near the capitol
0 inflation. really? wow. and add that to the people who are complaining about his policies, it s what, 65%? yes. two-thirds. done. when you said wave, i thought beach and got kind of excited. 119 days to the midterm elections, we are counting. right now, america reports. harris, thank you. welcome to fox news special coverage of the january 6th committee hearings. lawmakers are set to hold their seventh public hearing in just a moment now, the focus is going to be on former president donald trump s alleged role in bringing rioters to the nation s capitol as part of a last ditch effort for him to remain in power. good afternoon on this tuesday, john roberts in washington. hi, sandra. sandra: great to be with you, john. sandra smith in new york. inside the two-minute warning, we will head to the capitol a short time from now. the committee wants to show the impact of a tweet from the former president on december 19th, he told people to come to washington on january 6th
testify at a public appearance as early as next week. why do we know about that? sarah matthews is unlikely to be part two of the cassidy hutchinson project. she just wasn t as senior in the white house, was it in the quote unquote, in the room as often as was. certainly did not have the access to very senior people that hutchinson did. of course, we don t know what we don t know. she was a white house official, she worked in the press she would ve been connected to the white house s external and internal communications on january 6th. and she resigned in the immediate wake of the violence, citing the attack on the capitol building. without question, she s an interesting person. she would bring a new voice. she had been cited in prior hearings. i think they ve plead brief clips of her. she is someone who certainly has not had main character status that so many other witnesses have had. and the fact they are bringing her in live suggest she has something important in new to
subpoena to some of the largest platforms, including youtube, facebook, reddit, as well as others, several months back. basically demanding more information from them. and suggesting those companies are withholding things they needed to know. of course, the key focus when it comes to those companies is how much did the people running them know about the way their platforms were being exploited to prepare for not just violence, but also insurrection on january 6th. if the tech companies do not come up in this hearing, i think it s unlikely they will come up live at all. that s something to keep an eye out for. that s interesting. there s some news today about an individual name sarah matthews, a former deputy press secretary for president trump when he was president. it s interesting because during cassidy hutchinson s testimony. i saw sarah matthews tweet saying, look, believe me cassidy hutchinson is a trustworthy person. something to that effect. she is now been subpoenaed to
