The House Taking Desacrificive Action tonight against gop congresswoman Marjorie Taylor greene stripping her of committee assignments. Democrats punishing her for pushing lies about 9 11 and School Shootings and embracing the qanon theory. Only 11 republicans voting with democrats. Lawyers for the former president refusing a request by house Impeachment Managers that trump testify at his upcoming trial in the senate. And a major move by Johnson Johnson in the battle against coronavirus, asking the fda for an Emergency Use Authorization of its single shot covid19 vaccine. So, as you can tell, we have a lot to talk about. I want to bring in cnns White House Correspondent mr. John harmon. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor greene officially removed from her assignments but only 11 republicans chose to hold her accountable. Her last move to rewrite history did not work. Where do you think this leaves the gop, john . The gop does not feel it can afford to aylienate people like mar Marjorie Taylo
The resolution is adopted. I was allowed to believe things that werent true and i would ask questions about them and that is absolutely what i regret. What she said was before she was a member of congress. Its unprecedented what the democrats have done here. There should be a very, very high bar from removing somebody from committee, but this was not a hard call. Weve requested the president s testimony. Apparently he is refusing. They should issue a subpoena for the president. Hell go to court. Hell tie that up in knots. In his four years in office, donald trump never once testified under oath. And i think theyre showing that donald trump is not willing to back up his bluster. Announcer this is new day with Alisyn Camerota and john berman. We want to welcome our viewers in the United States and all around the world. This is new day, friday, february 5th, 6 00 here in new york.

And one that cowers in fear of its apparently extremist base. The sad truth is that democrats in congress had to discipline Margie Q Greene because House Minority leader Kevin Mccarthy was unwilling to do so himself. Mccarthy was willing to hold a Secret Ballot on the fate of republican congresswoman liz cheney, his own third in command who received a resounding if anonymous show of support to remain in Republican Leadership last night but he couldnt muster the courage to reject the qanon congresswoman. With this vote tonight, house republicans, many of whom stood up and gave Greene A Standing Ovation in a caucus meeting yesterday will now be defined as supporting someone who backed calls for assassinating Speaker Nancy Pelosi and threatened the nonwhite Women Members of the squad in social media ads. She promoted an antisemetic and Islam Mow Phobic video that had been reportedly circulating among neonazis. It claimed a, quote, unholy alliance of leftists, capitalists and zionist supre
That science is on the side of the parents and students. Not the union. Safely open the school and keep a school open. Doesnt require that 100 of the participants be vaccinated to accomplish that. Examples throughout our country of schools that are able to reopen safely and do so while following mitigation strategies. Martha during the debates, President Biden said clearly i am the Democratic Party right now. Today the Wall Street Journal called on him to lead on this issue. Writing this in an oped. Perhaps you heard a few thousand times as the Biden Administration will listen to science. The science says schools can safely reopen. The white house is still listening, make that bowing, to the nonsciences who run the teachers union. How about the science of impact of Generational Learning Loss that were experiencing right now . We have yet to see the numbers. But my anticipation is that they will be difficult when we do. What about the emotional toll of being deprived of Human Interactio
Spending down from the Election Interference Case in georgia in the interest of democracy. With him, fani willis can go forward. Some are slamming the judges decision, scott mcafee. The ruling to me seems nonsensical. I dont know how you can disqualify mr. Wade and allow ms. Willis to stay on. This is another example of a twotiered Justice System when it comes to President Trump and those around him. And mcafee said that they fell short of an actual Conflict Of Interest, but he had harsh words for willis and her behavior, that she demonstrated a tremendous lack of judgment and acted unprofessionally when she testified last month. He suggested he would be for a gag order to prevent willis from talking about the case. Willis has been defiant and saying in response to the resignation letter, you have endured threats against you and your family and unjustified attacks in the media. And her problems are far from over, some legal experts say she may run into several challenges ahead from Jur
