Was a justice department official, who was part of those meetings with jeffrey clark. and jeffrey rosen where the justice department, there were people in the justice department trying to step in and say there was corruption. by the way, there s a senate committee report coming out later this morning which delves into this as well. but what does this tell us about where the january 6th committee is. it shows us how sweeping this investigation is. it is not just learning about what was said behind doors on that day, what president trump was doing that day. it s also what led up to all of this. richard donahue was number two at the justice department. and he took detailed notes about a conversation that president trump had with acting attorney general at the time. and at the time trump was trying to pressure them into saying that the election was corrupt and that they shouldn t recognize the results. so they want to get to the bottom of that and really understand just how we got to
Burnham was tracked down by police and remains without bond as of this morning. cnn did reach out to multiple authorities. waiting to hear back from the county state attorney s office to try to hear and learn more about this case that is bizarre as it is disturbing. brianna. thank you for ta. court documents reviewed by cnn reveal at&t was instrumental in the creation of the far right one america news or oan. at&t is cnn s parent company. i want to bring in brian stelter approximate, chief media correspondent and anchor of reliable sources . this is a network that traffics in some of the most dangerous conspiracy theories out there. reporter: yeah. it makes fox news look liberal. it is conspiracy laden. sometimes pretending donald trump is still president. it is the worst of the worst out there.
Lost, a lot of people were led astray from the truth. i think that s what they need to hear more about. . it is now the price of admission to be part of trump s republican party to say things like the election itself was an insurrection. think of the impact that could have. it is something people need to be aware of. thanks for being with us. thank you for having me. congressman jason crow. if they continue to disregard the subpoenas, i will highly encourage authorities to pursue criminal content. frankly, that s what would to any american. any american sitting at home right now, if you represent a subpoena, there are consequences for you. stkpw elie honig is back with us. any time a person defies a congressional subpoena, congress has three options.
People to testify. and if they don t, they can meet civil and criminal penalties. the problem of course is donald trump has already told us he s going to try to get in the way, invoke executive privilege, absolutely not immunity really anything, as you say, brianna, to slow things down. this happened january 6th, 2021. this committee let nine months go by and they have not done much into getting into trump s inner circle. as a practical matter, we could have a new congress. the committee needs to be ready to go to the courts as soon as today or next week when subpoenas are defied. and judges need to do a better job. don mcgahn, the dispute over his subpoena took two years. that s unacceptable. judges are human beings. they can do better. they need to handle these more quickly. i think the most interesting isn t with the courts.
They have an incredible fan base, websites. there s a way to talk to girls now who are 8, 9, 10, how you cannot let these things happen. we will measure the success by where we are a year from now, not where we are with the outrage today. with i am sick of knowing i have been watching and enjoying sports and then understanding what has been going on behind the scenes that really just ruins it. it really does. christine, thank you so much. brianna, thank you. . we re going to talk with former soccer players about these allegations made against their former coach. the coronavirus vaccine for young children could be ready in a few weeks. today is the deadline for former president trump s aides to cooperate with the capitol riot investigation. what happens if they don t?
