Actually lead to increased mortality. And the jury is still out how these vaccines are going to work against these variants. Reporter this is new day, with Alisyn Camerota and john berman. Welcome to our viewers in the United States and all around the world. This is new day. Its thursday, february 4 tth, 6 00 here in new york. A moment of revelation for the Republican Party overnight. Days ago, it was mitt romney who said, our big tent is not large enough to accommodate conservatives and kooks. Days ago, it was Mitch Mcconnell who said, loony lies and Conspiracy Theories are a cancer for the Republican Party. But last night, it was Kevin Mccarthy, the House Republican leader who said, essentially, hold my beer. No action against Marjorie Taylor greene, the qanonsupporting House Republican who endorsed the execution of democratic leaders, harassed School Shooting victims, called Mass Shootings a hoax, reportedly trafficked in antisemitic propaganda about jewish space lasers. No action.
This. Republican leader Kevin Mccarthy made the claim overnight he doesnt even know what the Conspiracy Group qanon is. He might want to check the tape from january 6th. Some of them invaded his office. Or do a oneminute google search. Meanwhile, liz cheney got an earful from her gop colleagues but she survived an attempt to remove her from leadership because she dared to vote former President Trump for inciting that deadly insurrection. The final vote was 14561. And it was conducted in a Secret Ballot, meaning the republicans who stood behind her can remain anonymous. Joining me now is republican congressman Adam Kinzinger, an outspoken supporter of liz cheney. Outspoken in the suggestion that Marjorie Taylor greene should lose her Committee Posts. Congressman kinzinger, thanks for being with us. You had a heck of a night last night. How would you describe what happened . So, i want to put this up front. I dont reveal details from conference because but what ill tell you last night wa
Joining us this hour. Heres an interesting thing. Sort of a personal thing, but also a news thing. Right before President Trump was impeached the first time, i published a book called blow out and the weird surprising to me thing about blow out is that tended up being oddly well timed. I had no idea it was going to be well timed when i set out to write it, but thats how it landed. It was a book about the Oil And Gas Industry and the political power and geopolitical power of that industry. And a big chunk of that book was about all of the craziness and Corruption In Ukraine. And of course, then, right at the time the book came out, all the craziness and Corruption In Ukraine ended up being the setting, like the Playing Field for what President Trump got impeached for the first time he got impeached. I did not intend it to land that way. It was fortuitous and i hope helpful to people trying to figure out that landscape while we were looking at that first impeachment. Now, of course, mr.
Now its time for The Last Word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening, lawrence. Good evening, rachel. So im wondering is this more or less homework for you . Because back when you couldnt get the cdc director you would still have to do stories about it, and youd have to try to figure out certain things that were not easily apparent. Tonight you could actually go into that interview not knowing the answers to the questions because youre going to get actual answer tuesday the questions. Well, the thing that i mean the thing that changes that you dont have to anticipate what the interviewee is going to say, what they think or what was their motivation because you can ask them directly. But you still need to know about the issues and you know how to follow up and press them on it. It is just being able to interview dr. Fauci and dr. Wolensky and, you know, youve been talking to the white house Chief Of Staff ron klain, and andy slavitt has been on chris show. Being able to talk to the peopl
Leadership position because of her recent vote to impeach donald trump. The Secret Ballot vote 14561. The full house will vote tomorrow under the control of the democrats, remember, On Whether To Kick Greene off her committees budget and education. Greenes past comments include but arent limited to her view that School Shootings were staged, clintons murdered john f. Kennedy jr. , theres no evidence that plane hit the Pentagon On 9 11. Goes on into violence against democrats and rabid antisemitism. Marjorie Taylor Greene is totally out of control. Why would Kevin Mccarthy continue to associate himself and republican conference with someone who leader Mitch Mcconnell has characterized as a cancer. P last time i checked, cancers need to be cut out and not allowed to metastasize. Republican Leader Mccarthy issued a statement after his meeting with greene this evening condemning her past statements, and went on to accuse the democrats of course of fuelling the controversy by scheduling the
