republican tried to ambush and hand fraudulent electors to mike pence on january 6th. those stories and reports are coming up. but after a hearing like today s we begin with something more fundamental than a legal breakdown, and more powerful, perhaps, than meticulously going through the evidence, though that also matters. right now we begin with this. what millions of americans saw and heard today from the top republican leader out of arizona in plain, serious, and stern testimony about the choices officials have to make, the tests that trump posed, tests that, by the way, many republicans have fail bid cowering to a would be autocrat by minimizing threats of violence and coups, by only speak out late, if at all. some have walked back from some of those public humiliations. others just live in them. but today s testimony by this republican here offers a view of what it looks like to stand up. i said, look, you are asking me to do something that is counter to my oath that i
health care there. then the doctor that performed the procedure got in trouble, or at least didn t really get in trouble, didn t do one thing wrong but the attorney general starts looking into her. when you hear stories like that, voters hear it, regular people hear it. and i think that s what was resonating with them. they want to be able to make their own decisions on reproductive health care. and i don t think we could put in their minds what they thought of restrictions or not. i just think that the views that we re seeing is what they voted on, right? we ve got people including actually senator mcconnell who ve said they want to put a ban into law, a ban, outright ban. we have governors in states like texas who have talked about putting even more restrictions in place. states like missouri where someone proposed criminalizing it, where people have proposed suing people when they cross lines or not allowing them to get their own health care in other states. all these thin
amazing spouse back at home. i never meant to hurt anybody. i never meant to put in jeopardy the russian population. i never meant to break any laws here. i made an honest mistake and i hope that it doesn t end my life here. i know everybody keeps talking about political pawn and politics, but i hope that that is far from this courtroom. i want to say again that i had no intent on breaking any russian laws. i had no intent. i did not conspire or plan to commit this crime. i hope they can take into account all the documents, all the character lists everybody sent in on my behalf. i want to apologize to my teammates and the organization for any damage that i may have done to them. i never intended on hurting them. this is my second home and all i want to do is just win championships and make them proud. cnn senior international correspondent fred pleitgen is outside the courthouse near moscow. fred, visibly emotional, griner, apologizing to the court, taking responsibility fo
who witnessed that infamous oval office meeting about seizing voting machines, a meeting the took place just weeks before the capitol riot. i opened the door and i walked in, i saw general flynn, i saw sydney powell sitting there. i was not happy to see these people in the oval office. i don t think any these people were providing the president with good advice. the idea that the federal government could come in and sees election as jeans, i don t understand why we even have to tell you that s a bad idea. it s a terrible idea. and there are new reports that pat philbin white house deputy has also been summoned to appear before the grand jury. adam kinzinger says that his testimony could be key. if he goes before the grand jury, it shows that this is more than what did john eastman do, the attorney that basically came up with that crazy scheme to overturn the election. and there is probably a very deep interest of what the president did. i hope pat cipollone just actuall
