predawn attack. the target, an apartment building hundreds of miles from the front lines. and abortion rights advocates score victories in the unlikeliest of places, attempts to impose new bans fall short in a pair of red states. are they one-offs or warning signs for the republican party? we start with federal prosecutors poring over hours of new testimony from vice president mike pence. one of the few people with firsthand knowledge about former president trump s efforts to block certification of the 2020 election. pence s testimony came less than a day after a judge rejected trump s last ditch effort to block it. i want to bring in nbc s ryan reilly who s been covering all of the developments for us. also nbc s vaughn hillyard with the former president and his supporters in manchester, new hampshire, brendan buck who served as an aide to republican house speakers paul ryan and john boehner, and an msnbc political analyst, and carol lamb is a federal former rather for
really for the next decade. when the 2020 election was called for a by then, you might remember democrats got very cocky very quickly. and then they got sloppy. giving into the craziest demand of the far left now, two short years later, look at the mess they ve created. they stoked inflation, they hav sabotaged our energy independence and they wrecked our foreign policy. i was thinking about this tonight i can t think of a single issue that biden and the democrats have gotten right and overwhelmingly, americans do no think that democracy is at risk if the democrats lose control o congress, just like they don t think our country is systemically recessed or define by the events of january 6. it turns out that it is their candidates, the democrat candidates who stink, not ours. have you seen that poor katie ops in arizona. not been put to sleep by charli crist or maggie hansen in order that cortez master character. i would like to meet the person who really really thinks that h

sucking up to chuck schumer future boss, he wants to release one million people in jail and set them free and put them on the streets? again part of the radical left agenda. j.d. vance s campaign is going well. i think he will win in a strong way. j.d. vance is the american story. comes from a humble home. served in our military. does great with education. it s the american story. i think the people of ohio understand that. our state is a strong pro-trump state. i think j.d. vance will win. i think we will run the table in all of those swing states. herschel in georgia and ted in north carolina and dr. oz in pennsylvania. ron johnson he is doing great in wisconsin. i think he will win.
