facebook post that he can t remember. he never intervwed anybody. and supposedly supplied the evidence back into theory. he made no effort, took no steps whatsoever to determine if any of it was true. because that would ve run the story, why would he do that? again this deposition is from rudolph giuliani, in a depotion case brought by the former executive firm voting syst. but that story that he admits was just concocted is what ultimately led to the attack on the u.s. capital building on january six. a federal judge today saying in the bewildment that where repuicans did spend nths undoing and re-trying their election results. and even today the republican
for us, d there s no end in sight. i mean, y can hr the pain in her voice. is hp coming? well, what thhell is washington dng is the question? i mean we ve got democrats and repuicans who can t get their act together in passing an infrasucture bill, which nobody cares about partisan potics when you re in a neighborhood that continuously floods. you know, i likeo say i m a basement baby. teenage parents.s born to i lived in a lot of basements. basements helped me get through college quite frankly, and my basement used to flood that i lived in. so from personal experience, this is somethg that i know all too well. but the pain, the emotional toll on residents is unprecedented, d we need washington, c. to really act yesterday. we need biden and everyone to sit down and to move this
transparent about what s going down here. the president did not succeed in using daca as a leverage tool in order to get his wall, and so now these children are being used in that way. the presidake it from me, take it from the president, because he is the one who said that this democrats fault, right, and the translation of that is, they re not giving me the funding for my wall and so they re making me do this. they re making me do this. it s his policy. so when you say you re not hearing from republicans, well part of the reason why is a lot of these republicans, i think, are hoping that when the president comes up toapitol hill, there s going to be some kind of a breakthrough, not on there s two bills. not on the more conservative bill but on what is the more quote/unquote moderate bill. what you just saw last week may have been enough to blow that up. we ll find out when he comes up to capitol hill and meets with repuicans, but i think the hope is that they re going to be
relationship, intriguing, mysterious, maybe illegal relationship between this new administration and the russians? do we have enough to go with an investigation now? absolutely. and keep in mind that in december, there was a bipartisan call for a select committee that could look at this. because as you know, chris, in the senate every committee as jurisdiction but no committee as jurisdiction over all of this. that s why select committees are formed so we can look at the cia and the fbi and the military all in one setting. well, mitch mcconnell and paul ryan said, no, let s do it in the intelligence committees. what do the intelligence committees mean? it means this is all not done in public. and i think there was an effort to try to tamp this down, look the other way, and that s what s really a problem here. i don t know what all the facts are at this point and i want the truth to come out, but for these repuicans who spent days and days and millions and millions of dollars over rep
those civil rights cases is enough to give him credit for those things. do you think that the confirmation process is subtle enough and thorough enough that these things will be teased out and that he won t be given credit for these things that he is claiming credit for? well, in 1986 when he was nominated to be a federal judge, the senate judiciary committee, which was the controlled by repuicans also did give the opportunity for issues to be teased out. and when they were teased out, they found out that he had been racially insensitive in a number of comments that he had made, and his civil rights record was really questionable. and some republicans on the committee made it clear that they just couldn t support him. now you make a good point that in the senate there is a lot of camaraderie among the senators and it s very difficult. in fact, when i testified in 1986, senator biden said he would find it very hard to vote against one of his colleagues if they were up for a federal ju
