the reid out starts next. tonight oni] the reid out. while i do not believe i did anything illegal orçó every thought i was doing #v3q!%9 illegal, i did an awful, awful lot that was wrong and there is no one else responsible for my sins. as we await news of a possible trump indictment, let s recall the case of john d the rich and powerful democratic politician who was indicted for something similar allegedly breaking campaign finance laws after a tawdry affair. also tonight, a fox producer accuses thexdxd network of coer herfá into providing misleading testimony in the dominion lawsuit as a judge begins hearing pretrialfá arguments. plus,x#uq indictments are announced after sheriff s deputies pinned a 28-year-old in
this raises more suspicions. we have lots of reasons to be concerned, and no answers. if this was a grand jury, or if this were the watergate era, even, and you had a judge who as soon as tapes were missing, inexplicably missing, parts of them, he hauled everybody into the court. he got right to the bottom of it. we came up with the famous explanation by rosemary woods that she believes she had accidentally erased 18 and a half minutes of a tape. well that just came right out in the courtroom and prove she actually could not have done what she said she did. we don t have that advantage right now, but this is too conspicuous, don, that they re not gonna get the answer at some point. i don t think you can get away with this today. evidence can be tracked and and traced. so i think they will get to the bottom. let s just say, john, this was in front of a normal
from homeland security when you know that there were calls made to homeland security about seizing voting machines. god knows what they were doing with the department of defense. it all really stinks to high heaven. john, let me bring you in to get your reaction about this new report. this isn t a fix for the deleted messages on january 6th, but what do you think about the move to disable texts to fix how they retain these messages? i think they ought to be getting answers and responding to congress about january 5th and sixth, which is missing before they start to work on there remedies or even announcing what they are doing. it sounds very premature. , don. so i don t know that i can give any guidance on this issue. nick, the bigger picture here. we ve been talking about the missing texts from the secret service department homeland security.
d.o.d. officials after january 6th, and the concern here is that those phones held valuable information, valuable insight into why exactly it took hours to deploy the national guard to the capitol, and maybe how trump was or was not weighing in on that decision. now it appears those texts are gone and you combine that with the revelation over the past several weeks that the secret service texts are gone. it has members of congress asking for answers, and now they are pressing the pentagon inspector general to look into this, just as the dhs ig is looking for the missing secret service texts. here, don. a lot of questions. jessica, thank you very much. we appreciate that. i m gonna bring in our nixon white house counsel john d. and white house prosecutor nick akerman. gentlemen, i m so had happy to have you on. nick, let me ask you this. listening to jessica s reporting, is it stunning to you that there is a better way
and senior trump defense department officials. how does this look to you? it s a little weird. i don t want to be so sure on the air that there is something nefarious going on here, but it certainly does stink to high heaven. it s just too coincidental. as john will remember, there was talk during watergate, after the nixon tapes came out, that some people were saying, well, nixon should have destroyed all those tapes and he would ve remained in office and never been impeached. well, the fact of the matter is, somebody may have done the same thing here. they may have realized that the information on these text messages is so damning that they had to get rid of them for january 5th and six and it was better to do that and hope that nobody discovered what they did or who did it. we just don t know. but it really requires a very
