it was also former president trump telling georgia officials, that he just needs 11,000 votes, fellas, come on, give me a break. all right. this right now, we are concluding our recap of what happened at today s hearing. we still got adam schiff, gonna be joining us just a moment, he was a member of the let. that led today s hearing. one of the people that we heard from, and one of the witnesses from the investigation today, joscelyn benson, secretary of state. for michigan. we will hear from her as well. the final four that we re gonna recap now, was sort of mind-blowing to me, a mind-blowing amount of new information on the issue of fake electors. the hearing today revealed a lot of new information on the part of the plot where trump tried to make republican officials in states he lost, nevertheless, sending electors to the electoral college for him as if he had won. this is not up, what i saw at least, the new information that we heard today from the hearing. first we saw that from
the politics to be about getting cipollone s testimony. i think she is also foreshadowing a lot of evidence they had to make some republicans perhaps. i will add briefly. some of the absurdity can ask how close it was. in a different world. people say all we need three states. that s what they thought. they thought if they waved those papers around, and pence took them, that they could delay to that day sort of the elections. i want to know all they wanted was one. eastman others out there. florida of a quick question for you already, though. we also learned today. we have standing by. okay never mind. our last guest. really quickly, today we learned that eastman might be the fall guy, that there was this rolling stone reporting from aspen scuba saying that he s going to be the fall throwing him under the bus. and that is one of how that plays out if he goes under the bus, what can you say? it only was that one person is being prosecuted release the pressure o
lynched, if he didn t do what he was told. but now, you see this filtered all the way out. and i think one of the things that were so effective about this hearing today is that each of the testimony started with this question. you a conservative republican, you want to trump s win. yes, other than ruby freeman and shaye moss, and so, you establish that they were willing to menace the, to threaten even to kill. and when you re talking about brad raffensperger s daughter who s a widow at home with her kids, then having somebody invade the home. you re talking about shaye moss grandmother, have people beat down harder, and say we are making a citizens arrest. in georgia, a black woman, that sounds like a lynching party. i mean, it was shocking to hear the level of violence that trump was willing to meet out from all the way to pence, all the way down to shaye moss. he wanted violence, anything. this is called fascism. well and to that point, one of the occurring things we signed the las
slowly twisting gift of a noose. and for lack of a better word, i lost it. i just got, irate. my boss was with me at the time. deputy secretary, jordan, and she can tell that i was angry, turning webb from the here of, when that happened, it happened at the time. and she called secretary raffensperger to say we have seen these kind of threats, and gave things we need to say something about it. secretary said yes, and that s what prompted me to do what i did. i lost my temper. but it seemed necessary at the time, because it was just getting worse. and i cannot tell you why that particular one was the one that put me over the edge, but it did. now after you made this plea to the president, did donald trump urge his supporters to avoid the use of violence? not to my knowledge. we received, my secretaries would say, an excess of 20,000 emails and tens of thousands of voicemails, and texts, which
that we wouldn t know what it was, or anything about it, i think, makes a lot of questions. congressman, this is joy, i actually have a question about the center, as well as we showed it. it s about kind of the doll that didn t hunt today. as we were watching the hearing today, i kept waiting to hear one name that i didn t, and that is senator lindsey graham. who we do know from the reporting also put pressure on brad raffensperger, and others, in the state of georgia, to hand donald trump the votes, the flip the votes that he needed in order to win that election. can you talk a little bit about the process about who was included, who was not included, and will we hear more about senator graham s involvement in this pressure campaign on particular belief in the state of georgia? well in terms of the process as you might imagine, there is a volume of evidence, a mountain of evidence to try to communicate through each of these hearings, which you know
