guy, jeff clarke. the january 6th committee turns its spotlight on jeffrey clarke, the critical figure in trump s corrupt plot to put the parameter on his fake elector scheme. also tonight, trump is not happy with kevin mccarthy because the january 6th hearings are completely devoid of clowning, trolling and disruptions that trump was counting on for his attempted coup. i have a special guest, cherelle griner and the wife of basketball star britney griner who has been held in russia for four months. we begin with the january 6th committee hearings which most people can agree have been extremely substantive. so much so that they re going on longer than we thought. chairman bennie thompson said today that the committee received so much new information on the tip line that he s been promoting during each of the previous hearings that after tomorrow additional hearings will be held in july. one of the latest developments, never before seen footage subpoenaed from the committe
