Bound, Lieutenant Colonel ami mcgrath, thank you so much for spending some time with us. The beat are ari melber starts now. 4 00, 5 00 and 9 00, i am there. I am ari melber. Today the eyes of the nation were on the white house where a president s Lawful Extension was briefly challenged by a violent insurrection. He went about a somber task. Awarding a high honor to Police Officers who battled terrorists at the capitol. Biden harris spoke at the rose garden with officers in attendants. The president spoke of bravery and truth in defense of democracy. Our democracy did survive. Truths defeated lies. We did overcome. Thats because the women and men of the u. S. Capitol police. These officers are heroes. These officers are patriots. Patriots and truths. As maga leaders initially thrown off battle over the defensible set of actions found themselves following trump in defending or minimizing the terror on air and online. The Traditional Branch is dealing with these prosecutions. One federal judge eviscerating a trumps rioter. When President Biden talks of truths, defeating lies today, that may sound downright hopeful because we can see with our eyes how much lying does still persist. This judge that i just mentioned making it clear and a form that matters that lying about being a political victim does not work in court when you are lying or when you have no evidence on your side. The judge finding that a trumps fan here finding no victim and rather arrested because he was an enthusiastic participant to about vert democracy. Now as in court, outside the courtroom the propaganda continues. Meanwhile, also on the accountability front, one of the speakers ats the preinsurrection rally, congressman brooks, he did not claim in court that hes innocent. Hes making a separate argument that he should be immune from a trial which is a privilege most americans would not have. Hes trying to invoke his day job in congress for that immunity, a bizarre argument because he was not doing congressional work in that Body Armor Speech there. The doj already rejected that claim. Some lies are getting shredded and rejected. Congress also continuing its probe. As President Biden marks the courage of the police today. We can report to you tomorrow marks seven months since that insurrection. You probably saw some of it at the time that day. Did it really happen . On the steps of our capitol . On the floor of our senate . And we learn more and more about it. Does it feel longer than seven months ago or does it feel like we are learning more or less about it. It is hard to say. We are living through challenges even though the insurrection failed and trump is out of office. A fundamental warning for anyone who tried to keep a grip on the truth. He wrote to see what is in front of ones nose is a constant struggle. It is certainly a struggle right now because eventhough the people controlling the federal government and the white house are doing the factual thing. Noting what the police did and honoring them which in other certain areas or in response to other types of terrorism would be just whatever everyone agreed upon. We are living through this factual and physical trauma where so many people are lying their way through this. They want you and everyone else in america overtime to have the truth blunted and decayed to the point that at a minimum is far less extreme terrible violent or horrific for the truth that day. For their hard core base, they want them to think it did not happen at all. Lets get into Nick Ackerman and melissa murray. Nick, your thoughts, the judges and other branches of government and a congress that continues to have a basic factual fight over what happened inside that very congress. Ari, i think all too often we under estimates the judiciary branch. They have played the key role here. You remember general miley talking about his concerns about the moment when he thought it is going to be like when hitler took over in germany. What makes us different from the Myanmar Republic when hitler took over was the judges there could be fired at the whim of anybody or at the whim of the executives. Here we have independent judges who are appointed for life. They dont have to worry about being fired at any point. They come and rose to the occasion whether theyre republicans or democrat, they dismiss the 60 semibogus cases brought by donald trump. They go in and basically handle these insurrectionists and made out sentence and made it quite clear what they are doing was not patriotism. It was not right and it was not that they were political prisoners. They were trying to stop our judicial and constitutional process of electing a president. It is going to happen in detroit. With donald trump didnt understand our government, he thought he could appoint three Supreme Court justices and bring a case before the Supreme Court and of course because they owed their appointments to donald trump they would throw in their lot with donald trump. Well, that didnt happen. And it didnt happen because we have lifetime appointments. They dont have to run for office. They dont have to worry about being appointed again. Their only concern is upholding the constitution and our constitutional form of government. They all risen to that occasion. Yes, the president also alluded to this factual fight and republicans trying to change the history. Take a look. My fellow americans, the tragedy that day deserves the truth above all else. We cant allow history to be rewritten. We cant allow the heroism of these officers to be forgotten. We have to understand what happened, the honest and unvarnished truth. We have to face it. Professor, what about that . It is important that we have to face this truth and the steps the president is taken to acknowledge what happened on january 6th by commemorating the work of the Capitol Police and metropolitan police. It is important for us to understand that when we talk about the court, we are not just talking about the Supreme Court, we are not talking about the Supreme Court which donald trump appointed three new judges, we are talking about the lower courts, too where he appointing judges across the country. Judges that are not representatives of the populace of large. To the ex yeah, i think thats an important point and also because donald trump was clearly the loser of the election in a big way, the kind of cases that could get up to the Supreme Court. And yet nick, i think the professor raised something you can respond in other news. I want to share raising a question of a closer case. I want to bring in some updates we got just as i was coming out to do the broadcast, the January 6th Committee theyll be expanding their probe. You can see one of the headlines here, a Key House Committee has postponed multiple scheduled witness interviews. Pelosi outmaneuvered built a committee with cheney and others on there. Now we are seeing tonight whether a vote of confidence or always in the works. It is clearly expanding jurisdictions. With that in mind, lets just take a brief look at some of the officers who spoke in that first hearing of that committee which overlaps with what biden and harris were honoring them today. I recall thinking to myself, this is how i am going to die. What i witnessed and experienced on january 6th, 2021 was unlike anything i had ever seen. Another shouting, you will die on your knees. There was an attack carried out on january 6th and a hitman sent them. It is time to get the testimony from the hitman. The Executive Privilege have been waived. We had the opportunity to find out what really happened minute by minute and day by day and leading up to that insurrection and learning exactly whos responsible and who called these People Into Washington and what conversations they had. All of that could come out. In terms of the judiciary, it seems to me at least the Lower Court Judges have addressed these issues and dealt with what has come up in the course of these lawsuits, and what has come up in the course of i go back to watergate, he was a republican who really responsible for breaking the watergate case. He made stiff sentences to the burglars which forced them to talk and reveal that the orders are coming directly from the white house. I think look, we all have disagreements of the Supreme Court and in terms of certain issues that they do decide much broader issues and the Lower Court Judges and a deal with a lot of cases or civil cases. But, for the most part when ever this comes up in terms of the 60 plus losses, on the third circuit, there have been judges appointed by donald trump stood up and done the right thing. Yeah. I understand what you are saying. The space between the argument you guys are having of whats going on the courts is real, some of this has not been tested in a way that we would not want it to be. Yes, our headline today about professor hassin talking about the preparations for the next trump coup are underway using State Legislatures. All of this is a live issue. I want to thank nick and professor murray kicking us off. We have a lot more in the program, including fox news, the dividing on scene. We have one anchor saying go get vaccinated and well check mcconnells attack on the safety net and Michael Beschloss is here. Stay with us. S is here stay with us shingles . Camera man yeah, 1 out of 3 people get shingles in their lifetime. Well that leaves 2 out of 3 people who dont. I dont know anybody whos had it. Your uncle had shingles.

During 2020 people were saying over the years they could not wait for 2021. Well, the vaccine made things a lot better. If you live in florida, 2021 is far worse than 2020. Covid surges and School Districts there defying Governor Desantis announcing their own Mask Mandates for students returning to class. Students under 12 is not eligible for the vaccines. The record up, 120 . The governor threatening to defund School Districts to choose in a local measure to have Safety Measures on masks and hes getting hammered for it. Florida is the most dangerous place to be in america right now. There is no one to blame than governor ron desantis. He spent more time playing crazy games with chicken with other rightwing governors wanting to be president rather than keeping florida alive. Thats democrats hitting him. Polling when you ask their own preferences showing 51 of republicans vaccinated far higher share than democrats. There is a divide on the right. The pressure on america when we see that covid is not going away unless more people get vaccinated. Some people are on the right, fox news have said, what other people and experts say that the vaccines are safe and you may choose to get them. You can say it in a number of ways. Let me show you something interesting. What happens when One Fox Anchor says something along that line and how quickly he gets rebutted by his colleague and coworker. If your kids are over 12, you ought to get the shot. Thats where you go to for medical advise. I didnt go to a doctor before i got a shot. Thats your choice. I dont think anchors should be recommending medical advise. A lot of people have been tuning into the show to see what e with think about different things. If you had the opportunity, get the shot. Right, you see a doctor giving you expertise of what you are seeing about a shot . Anchors should not tell people what to do. It is one of those statements defensible and i know what he means. There is validity to that. The tension in the country with a society and economy thatll not be able to function very well if people dont inside to get vaccinated more within each individual choice and freedom. And so, we are going to see this tension play out continuously because the problems not going away by itself. Doctors explained that most cases people can get the vaccine, many people consult with their Expert Sources and their own health history, sometimes they get a vaccine without going to the doctor or yes, you can consult with one and some people are in a situation where they choose not to get one. Dr. Fauci is trying to make it clear when he talks about what is safe and truth for most people and addressing people who are hesitant which is okay. It is okay to debate this and if you delay, it is okay, too. You want to get all the information to make up your own mind for whats best for you. How dr. Fauci is playing out, hes referencing what the Trump Administration has done. When people say i am concerned this went too fast. It did not go too fast. It was a major investment both in the logistics and the resources and the clinical and basic research. We give credit to the Trump Administration for doing this. Particularly, secretary alex azar whos an important component of that. The Biden Administration is doing their vaccine push. The pentagon is looking at plans to mandate 1. 3 million active duty troops to be required to get the shots. Elvis presley, take a look at this, 60 years ago. This is important stuff, we can keep learning together. We have special guests tonight after our shortest break, i will see you in 60 seconds. Break, il see yoinu 60 seconds.

Patel and we are going to get into this report of the Military Mandate with the general doctor. What did you think of the exchange on the fox news sofa. Putting all politics aside, i bet people can relate of that debate playing out in any number of rooms in america. Look, i am a doctor and i am telling people to go get vaccinated. I do think you are right. There is an under tone that perhaps an individual making decisions to go get vaccinated that there is something potentially wrong with it. We have so much data and unfortunately, deaths, we are going to top 100,000 new cases along with hospitalizations and deaths. I cant think of a critical time where we have people like you, encouraging them to come forward and not to put fear in them if they need to talk to a doctor, it is fine. This is something we should not be debating anymore. There is clear evidence to get vaccinated. Viewers know this is kind of how i try to do it. This is tough stuff. Hes saying something thats fine and gesturing the idea that this is like a big tough medical call when a lot of doctors have said unless you know something about your preexisting conditions, autoimmune and pregnancies and certain things. For most people
