january 6th, then for a day or two before, a little bit after. but then in terms of use of that, public disclosure of that, we worked very closely with the capitol police to reach an accommodation that used the stuff that was important and relevant and informed our findings but did not unduly jeopardize their security concerns for the capitol complex. that is a negotiated issue, and i don t know whether the access that the speaker has given to fox has any such restriction on the use, subsequent use of the footage. wow. okay, let s talk about the doj s investigation into the january 6th events. it appears to be gaining momentum because of just the last few days, we have heard about the efforts to get mike pence, jared kushner, ivanka trump, all of them in front of a federal grand jury. your committee got two out of these three. what do you make of these developments. i think they are predictable, alex. look. the department justice is going
to all of that first cross examination by the prosecutor. they were killing him about lying to authorities that he had not been out the crime scene when he had. yeah, alex, it is so good to be with. you, look the critical issue that you are always going to be confronted with as a juror is, part of your duty is to determine the credibility and the trustworthiness of any witness that appears in court during the course of the trial. i like murdaugh immediately, on direct examination took the stand and look the jury in the face and, said i ve been. lying i ve been lying for 20 months plus to not only investigators, but family and the community at large when i denied being present at the scene of the crime within minutes of the double homicides occurring. i don t know about you, alex, but somebody falling on the sword sometimes could be construed as, you know what, he is owning up to a lie. the problem for alec murdaugh s, his entire life was built on lies. stealing from clients, cheating
an alarming security concern. i will also ask him about ivanka trump and jared kushner being subpoenaed by the special counsel. what does that mean for donald trump? let s go to the war in ukraine, entering officially u2 with a blitz of new russian attacks. new overtures by china for a pea peace initiative over newest field of china s relationship with russia. all this as president zelenskyy makes another push for american f-16 fighter jets. and missy s erin mclaughlin has the rest from kyiv. good morning to you, erin. hi there, alex. last night, president biden telling abc news that he is ruling out sending f-16 fighter jets to ukraine for now, something the ukrainian leadership has been asking for. take a listen to what the president had to say. we are sending him what our seas in the military things he needs now. he needs tanks, he needs a teller, in his air defense, including another high marks.
earlier, a large crowd gathered outside that courthouse as onlookers trying to get a seat in the courtroom. east palestine or residents are filing a class action lawsuit against norfolk southern. we ll get to that is. well nbc s katie becca has been covering this trial and has the very latest. we re in the hot seat for a second, day alex murdaugh facing a blistering cross examination. the second that you are confronted with facts that you can t deny, you mediately come up with a new lie. isn t that correct? i would disagree with that proposition that you are putting out. prosecutors hitting hard on murdaugh timeline inconsistencies on the night of the murders, and murdaugh pushing back in his own defense, even becoming combative when challenged on his memory finding his wife s body. you dang rachel remember what lyle went to her and for what reason. because the only thing you re concerned about is yourself answering some
potential wildcard, according to an adviser to the ukrainian military, it potentially chinese involvement. the united states has been warning that china is considering sending a lethal aid to russia. if that happens, in the words of this advisory, it could be a, quote, game-changer which is perhaps why president zelenskyy says he would like to meet with the leader of china. alex? okay, erin mclaughlin, thank you for that. joining me right now is california congressman sarah jacobs, a democratic member of the house of armed services of foreign affairs committees. welcome, it s good to see you on the broadcast. one year into this conflict. the u.s. is sending a two billion dollar aid package to ukraine. it includes drones, artillery rockets, and a large amount of ammunition. let s take a listen together to what joint chiefs chairman mark milley told joe scarborough about what the endgame can look like.
