have to emit before there are consequences? neal, i feel that. where is the department of justice here? well first of all, stephanie, it s time to say it s always a privilege to be on with you, but more so after this last week. thank you. thank you. there s smoke, there s fire, these audio calls, they re like making crazy crazy again. it s unbelievable what is being said. and joyce is absolutely right. there s nothing indicating right now that either mccarthy or scalise are targets of the justice department investigation. but, gosh darn it, they are material witnesses at the very least. and i m very respectful and proud of the january sixth committee seems to have done so far. but not when it comes to members of congress. they sent mccarthy a letter on january saying it would be nice if you could come in and tell us some things. mccarthy of course, thumbed his nose at it. and now we have 2000 texts and
could visit a church and have that photo op moment. while the secret service played a role there too, here you can see the agencies civil disturbance unit clouded in all black, demonstrators claim those agents charge of the crowd and sprayed them with tear grass and pepper spray. a charge of the secret service at first denied, then walked back a few days later many. former secret surgeons were horrified at that days of and one told the washington post quote, we protect the president, we don t report to the president, it feels at that line is now been blurred. how blurred you may ask? well meet the man who helped coordinate that visit to the church anthony ornato. if that means found similar that s because this week a new filing from the january sixth committee revealed that according to former a trump era anthony ornato or the chief of staff, mark meadows, about possible violence ahead of the capitol riot. before that in the early days
while this is, at this sedition case. and you talk about the complexity of it, there is even complexities beyond these cases where some of the lawyers are representing some of the other members of the conspiracy in civil cases, they re being sued for what they did. they re representing other defendants who are part of the oath keepers in front of the january six committee, who are seeking some of their testimony, like stewart rhodes, for example. so it s extraordinarily complicated to tee up a case like this. it s going to be remarkable if the judge can keep to this april timeline, as we mentioned, there are people who are sitting in jail waiting for this to happen. and the judges mindful of that as he s trying to keep the wheels turning. but it seems almost impossible to imagine that that time will stick as much as the judge wants it to. let me follow up with you, kyle, about the jones testimony. i thought it was fascinating just to hear a window into what he was asked. i want to pl
mouthpiece meets the committee. they asked me if we were with the proud boys. they kept asking me, who is your white house connection? who was it? tonight, what we learned from today s hearing, what the january six committee wants to know from alex jones, and you reporting about what is in those newly-released white house documents. then, the race to uphold the rule of law as one of two major parties a damned abandons it. they re the ones who in fact face a real risk of jail. you know what? notes right. plus, david remnick on the american response to russian aggression and as covid keeps claiming lives, florida picks and you fight with science. florida s going to absolutely put data as number one in deciding forgive me, are you telling me that the food and drug administration are not experts as to what drugs to prevent what s not to approve? all in starts right now.
interesting ask. and so far, it seems on theme with that document we appear to know they got, which was the speech for national healing. proposed or drafted proposals inside that white house to kind of turn some page, condemn the violence, memorialize it, etc. as far as i can tell, trump has said very little about the deaths of the capitol officers. so, what that document could be, is insight into what the president s aides were trying to get him to say about those deaths. those deaths received massive outpouring from, certainly democrats and a lot of elected officials from across the country. they were obviously hugely tragic things about what happened on january 6th and they were universally seen as terribleness. and if you re trying if you re the committee, and you re trying to paint a picture of a president who truly did not care about the consequences of what happened
