But i meant someone who is important. Thank you. My mistake. Yes. I misspoke. Or at least you corrected it. Ill see you, brother. Good night. So this is don lemon tonight. On a big news night, right . So what about this . Russia, if youre listening, remember that . Well, russia is going to hear from a very different United States in just a few hours. Thats when President Biden is going Sit Down for his summit in geneva with russian president vladimir putin. And the United States goes from this the supposed leader of the free world failing to stand up for democracy, denying Russias Interference in the 2016 election. My people came to me, Dan Coats came to me and some others said they think its russia. Have i President Putin. He just said its not russia. I will say this. I dont see any reason why it would be. So trumps answer was so disastrous, the next day he tried to do damage control. But the damage was already done. In a key sentence in my remarks, i said the word would instead of wouldnt. The sentence should have been, i dont see any reason why i wouldnt or why it wouldnt be russia. Just to repeat it. I said the word would instead of wouldnt. The sentence should have been, i thought it would be maybe a little unclear on the transcript or unclear on the video. The sentence should have been i dont see any reason why it wouldnt be russia. Okay. Tomorrow were going from trump to this. We have to prove to the world and to our own people that democracy can still prevail against the challenges of our time and deliver for the needs of our people. Biden and putin have met before but this is the first time biden is sitting across from the russian leader with the power he holds as Commander In Chief of the United States. That president knows very well the president knows well who he is dealing with. I had met with him. Hes bright. Hes tough. I found hes, as they say when you used to play ball, worthy adversary. What about here at home where it becomes increasingly clear our adversaries come within. Where the calls are coming from inside the house, and the house itself is under assault, as We Saw in the deadly violence at the capitol on january 6, and where Voting Rights under attack, as the Big Lie Metastasizes From State To state. You know, the fraughted in arizona and where today documents were released that show just how hard the trump White House and the aides and the rudy Giuliani Clown Show pushed the doj to challenge and overturn the 2020 election results, putting forward false, outlandish and flatout ridiculous allegations. They abused their power to try to stay in power. If theres any doubt who is behind this, who was trying to steal the election, the Subject Line of the emails reads, look at your screen, from potus. Trumps white House Chief of Staff Mark meadows pushed the Conspiracy Theory hatched by an ally of Rudy Giuliani alleging that italy was using Military Technology and satellites to change votes in favor of joe biden. N. Italian space laser, i guess . The acting Attorney General at the time Jeffrey Rosen was then asked to meet with giuliani. And it is clear he knew this was all garbage, and also that we might be reading these emails some day, because he responded in this way. He said i flatly refused. I said i would not be giving any special treatment to giuliani or any of his witnesses, rosen putting the word witnesses in quotes. Reaffirming he wouldnt talk to Rudy Giuliani and telling an aids the allegation is pure insanityty. Also in quotes. Pure insanity. Today cnn caught up with meadows and asked him for explanation. He declined to give one saying only im not going comment on anything that may or may not have happened. Gaslighting. We have the documents. What is this we may or may not, it may or may not have happened. Thats not all that we found out today about the attacks on democracy, about the calls from inside the house where at a hearing into the January 6th insurrection, we learned various Law Enforcement agencies including Capitol Police and the washington Metropolitan Police requested help from the d. C. National guard 12 times when the capitol was under violent attack. After a series of delay, the National Guard did not arrive until 5 20 p. M. , more than four hours after the Capitol Perimeter was breached. This is a shocking failure. Congresswoman maloney also pressing Fbi DirectorChristopher Wray on the bureaus threats ahead of january 6, including 50 tips from parler about the potential violence. The system was blinking red. The committee has obtained documents showing social Media Company Parler sent the Fbi Evidence of planned violence in washington, d. C. On january 6. Parler referred this content to the fbi for investigation over 50 times. I did not recall hearing about this particular email, certainly not before January 6th. We need the find out lot more about those warnings and why they went unheeded, especially when we learned just yesterday that qanons digital soldiers may become more violent. These Warnings Cant go unheeded. At yet another hearing today, some people resistant to having an honest conversation about racism in america, well, they may have learned a little something about it today. In a climate where republican lawmakers are moving to ban the teaching of critical Race Theory in schools, calling it antiamerican. Two gop congressmen criticizing navy highest ranking officer for recommending that sailors voluntarily read the book how to be an antiracist. Chief of naval operations pushing back hard. This is a bigger issue than ke kendis book. What this is really about is trying to paint the United States military, in this case, the united States Navy as weak, as woke. Were not weak. Admiral gilday not stopping there. I do know this, our strength is in our diversity and our sailors understand that. Racism in the United States is a very complex issue. What we benefit from is an open discussion about those issues that we dont try to ignore it or rewrite it but we actually have a discussion about it. Thank you, sir. You may have just taught them something today. Current president of the United States preparing for his summit with russias leader. My next guest is Fiona Hill. She was there the last time the united States President held a summit with the russian lead. And it went so badly, she said she considered faking a medical incident. I had exactly the same feeling that Deborah Birx had during the infamous conference where there was a suggestion about President Trump about Injecting Bleach, you know, to counteract the coronavirus. It was one of those moments where it was mortifying and humiliating for the country. Fine, no one leaves the table until your finished. Fine, well sleep here.

Meeting with russian president Vladmir Putin. In a matter of hours. A sitdown is the finale of bidens first trip overseas as president , where he has spoken at length about building up democracy and standing up to autocracy. I want to bring in Fiona Hill who helped Biden Prep for the meeting. She is the former national Security Director for european affairs. She testified in trumps first impeachment Inquiry And Work at the brookings institution. Were so grateful shes here with us. Thank you for joining us. You helped the president prep for this Facetoface Meeting with Vladmir Putin and you know putin well. Does either side have an advantage here heading into this critical meeting . I think a lot of people are already conceding some kind of advantage to vladimir putin just because the meeting is happening. But, you know, i think Pre Prejudging This is pretty unfair for our president , the united States President. I mean, one way or another, biden has to meet with the major leaders of countries that are most consequential to the United States at that moment. That of course includes President Xi of china and also President Putin of russia. So one way or another, at some point hes got to meet with him. And im sure that the White House is thinking why not now. As youre saying at The End of whats otherwise a trip to visit all of our allies. Biden has already met with the leaders telephone g7, another fellow of democracies with the representatives of the european union. Hes had meetings in the uk with the queen, and also with the nato allies. So adding putin to The End of this makes a Love Sense in terms of proximity. And it fits in with meetings weve had in the past with soviet and russian leaders. I think the last time we had a president ial meeting was reagan and gorbachev which was the height of the cold war. Were in another confrontational meeting. The whole point is to try to see if we can take the temperature down on this highly contentious relationship. Geneva i suppose makes as much sense as anywhere else. So biden has called Putin A Killer and a thug. Whats your assessment of putin . How will he behave or is he going to behave, do you think . Well, i think actually what will be surprising is something extraordinary doesnt happen out of this. Putin makes a point of pride in being unpredictable, in being preemptive, taking preemptive strikes. He is well aware of what biden thinks of him. We have to remember this wont be the first time that theyve met, although its the fist time met with biden as president. Back in 2011 biden went with putin and had a famous quip about looking into his eyes and not seeing his soul. Putin saying back, i think we understand Each Other. Its not like these Guys Havent sparred before. Biden has been around for 50 years in politics. Putin has been president of russia for about 20 years. These are both going to be very experienced people will be sitting down here. What were all hoping for, those of us watch russia and not in the business of making a drama out of it for television is we get out of all of this unscathed and we then move on to the next set of meetings. What it would be good to be back again is to some kind of predictability and sequences of meetings so we dont have to hyperventilate every time there is an idea of an american President Meeting with his russian counterpart. But of Course Putin is in the business of subversion. So i think we can expect he will try to take some shots at biden, some cheap shots. Hes been making fun of bidens age. Putin said he will be around until 2036 by which time he will be six years older than biden is now at 84. I would suggest he should be careful about that one. No less, thinking about this he will No Doubt try to think about how he can get one over. The more we feed into it with the media frenzy, the more advantage, frankly, putin gets out of this. He just likes to make mischief, as you saw at Helsinki And Other Settings as well. You mentioned helsinki. Lets talk about those in 2018. You were there for the meeting when trump sided with russia. Quite frankly, over u. S. Intelligence. It was humiliating for United States. How do you think putin is looking at biden compared to trump . He said trump is very talented but he hasnt said the same thing about the current president of the United States. No, hes been much more measured about that. They have both been around for a long time. Theyre trying to take the measure of Each Other in this new formulation of their relationship with both of them being president. I dont think that putin will expect biden to be anything other than prepared. The russians are making a Big Point Of Fact that putin is not preparing. Thats just bs frankly, because putin is always well prepared. Every meeting ive saw him, hes thought ahead, one step, two steps, three steps ahead. He prepares with note cards. I think weve managed to diffuse potentially, we the United States some of the mischief that putin could get up to by the fact that were not having a joint Press Conference. But putin will have ample opportunity to have his own Press Conference and give his own spin on the meeting. So from our perspective and watching all of this right now, i think putin is just trying to get the measure of everything. How is the United States going to react. How is media going to react. What is biden going to present to him. How far is biden going to push very strong messages. How much does putin think he can get away with both in the moment of the meeting and afterwards. But the other important point is putin wants this meeting. Yeah. He wants to be seen as an equal of the u. S. President. So there may be some limits to how far he will go. Even at helsinki i think putin realized that he pushed it too far. There were moments where he was trying to help trump out of the predicament he got him into. Biden, he isnt doing a joint Press Conference with putin. I would to read something and you said this. You said my initial thought was just how can i end this. I literally did have in my mind the idea of faking some kind of medical emergency and throwing myself backwards with a loud blood curdling scream into the media. I mean, of all the disastrous things you have seen on the World Stage, fiona, where did that Moment Fall . And were you seriously did you seriously consider that . It was that bad . I did seriously think about it. I first of all looked around to see if there was a Fire Alarm but we were in a rather grand building attached to the president ial palace of the finnish president who hath had lent it to us. I couldnt see anything that resembled a Fire Alarm. I had exactly the same feeling that Deborah Birx had during the infamous Press Conference where there was the suggestion of President Trump about Injecting Bleach to counteract the coronavirus. It was one of those moments where it was mortifying and humiliating for the country and it was completely, i have to say, out of step of what had happened in the meeting prior to that. The meeting itself was quite a annodyne. He likes to stoke outrage. He come up with the idea of allowing the United States to interview some operatives that from the russian military services that we just indicted for their interference in the 2016 elections. But of course he was just about to announce to the world as well that he would then like to interview a few americans, including our former ambassador and a number of State Department and other officials who he also got in his crosshairs. He knew that was going to stoke outrage. It was the Press Conference itself and the way that President Trump unfortunately handled himself, which was the worst moment of all. As i said, i just thought, lets just cut this off and try to end it. I couldnt come up with anything that just wouldnt add to the terrible spectacle. I think its a great idea not to have a joint Press Conference after that and in fact, in the past we havent really had these joint conferences or Press Conferences between adversaries. Its more something you do with your allies. Its not that President Biden deciding not do that has ruptured some past precedent. In fact, hes going back to something we did in the past, which is try to avoid those kinds of embarrassments when everybody is going to try to put you on the spot. Were glad you didnt do that, that youre here to share your expertise with us and also with the people who are running the country. Thank you, Fiona Hill. I appreciate you joining us. Thanks, don. Thank you so much. As the president defends american democracy abroad, the fallout from Trumps Presidency reveals new threats to our democracy right here at home. Stay with us.

Newly released email shows how former President Trump and his Allies Pressure top officials to investigate his Big Lie about election fraud. The documents show officials like white House Chief of Staff Mark meadows pushing acting Attorney GeneralJeffrey Rosen to challenge the 202010 election results. Joining Me Cnn chief political analyst gloria borger. Gloria, good evening to you. Hi. More evidence of what we talked about just kind of the sequel of what we talked about last week. Biden is overseas. Hes defending democracy while at home were learning about new abuses by trump pressuring his Justice Department. Its easy to become numb to all these assaults on democracy, but every day we learn just how deep this all goes. Yeah. This was pretty deep. This is constant inundation of emails from people inside the White House, people at the behest of the president , the outside attorney at the behest of the president , former white House Chief of staff to the acting Attorney General saying youve got to investigate michigan. Youve got to investigate the italy tie. Theres a conspiracy in italy that fixed the voting, et cetera, et cetera. All these kind of conspiracy theories. When you put this into context and understand what was going on in the country at the time, this started around december 14th. That was the day the certification of the american election and yet, rosen was getting these emails about this and eventually he just threw up his hands because he couldnt deal with it anymore. Imagine what would have occurred if you had somebody more receptive at the Justice Department to this corrupt inquiry that would corrupt the Justice Department and in fact, perhaps, the courts. Yeah. Last time we were on discussing this, i think you called it the peeling of an onion that we would find out more. Yes. What were learning, is it that if they could have stolen the election, that they would have . I think what we are learning is that they would do anything to win. Yeah. And that includes fixing the votes. What we see going on right now in arizona, for example, dont forget, i dont have to remind you. Youve talked about it every single night is you had 60 courts, including the supreme court of the United States saying these lawsuits were frivolous. They were unnecessary. That this was a free and fair election across the country. You had election officials across the country standing up to all of this and many of them have endangered their jobs and their lives, in fact, getting a lot of Death Threats for doing this. Nothing has changed except that the challenges continue and the question is, i think, what will happen in the next election and how Will Americans be able to vote. Yeah. Listen, youre right. The threat is still ongoing. Trump is still pushing the Big Lie. Sure. Republicans are assaulting Voting Rights. And we dont know how its all going to end, gloria. Thats the thing. No. No, we dont. I think all you can do is be vigilant and as these things lay out, our job is to point out whats going on in each state. I think we have been over that at cnn. I think you have to say here, here are the laws being passed by legislatures. Here is what they do and here is what they dont do. You have to get people to understand whats at stake here and i think the american electorate is understanding that now how important voting is and no matter how you decide to vote, you want to figure out a way to do it and do it and get to the polls so nobody can stop you from exercising that right of citizenship in this country. It is a huge issue and we all know in The End, Donald Trump will never admit that he lost the election. Ever. What he will talk about, and i gather hes having another rally or two. What hes going to talk about is the fact he should be president of the United States. That the election was rigged because he cannot stand losing. Thats what that is about. Well, you know. Any way, ill move on. Republican Congressman Paul Gosar grilling Christopher Wray about the officer who shot and killed ashley babbitt, who was trying to jump through a smashed window inside the capitol during the insurrection. Lets listen to this. The Capitol Police Officer that did the shooting appeared to be hiding, laying in wait. And gave no warning before killing her. Question again, why hasnt that officer that executed ashley been named when Police Officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting . On that case its not one we have been directly involved in. I cant agree or disagree with your characterization. Sounds good. Congresswoman Liz Cheney calling out gosar on twitter, saying this. On january 6, as a violent mob advanced on the house chamber, i was standing near Representative Gosar and helped him open his gas mask. The Capitol Police led us to safety. It is disgusting and despicable to see Gosar Lie than day and him Lie And Smear the men and women who defended us. Gloria, she is still not hoeding back after losing her leadership position. She isnt. I might point out he was one of i 21 republicans who voted against giving the congressional Police Officers the congressional gold medals for their work on january 6. He was opposed to that. A lot of those members didnt like the Word Insurrection used in that legislation. In any case she has a point to makes it really well. She was there. He was there. He knows what was going on. To say that woman was executed by a Police Officer when you dont have the facts is stunning to me. Thats the kind of language thats being used about the capitol hill police. I think good for her for calling it out as often as she can. Its not going to get her very far politically in the republican party, as you know and we talked about this. She was there standing next to him putting on gas mask. She understood and she knows that he understands exactly what occurred in the capitol. These people were not tourists. The danger of that day. Absolutely. Before i let you go, i have to ask you about The New York Times reporting that Ceo Allen Weisselberg could face charges this summer over a criminal tax question. The Big Question is whether he will flip on the former president politically speaking. Sure. What will the gop do if trump gets in legal trouble . Well, we have to see. Im assuming a lot of people who are trump fans will blame the courts and say its a hoax and a witch hunt, et cetera, et cetera. I think weisselberg is key. He knows everything about Donald Trump and his taxes and his finances. Its clear they want him to flip. They are putting pressure on him. Whether he will or not, who knows. Hes in some legal jeopardy. I think its clear hes not the Big Fish here. The Big Fish is Donald Trump. Im not an attorney but this is how things work. You kind of Put Pressure on someone to get to someone up the food chain. That is trump. I think the question of Donald Trumps taxes and how he has handled his fiscal matter s out there. Its been out there for a long time. Whether it would change any support for Donald Trump, i doubt it. Gloria, always a pleasure. Thank you so mump. Good to see you. You as well. President biden sending a message to allies, the soul of america is intact, and sending a message back home that to keep it that way, his agenda needs to get passed.

The senate of course is where the fate of the Biden Agenda on infrastructure, on Voting Rights, they sit stalled, hostage to the Filibuster And Mitch mcconnell. So joining me now, the former democratic senator al franken, the selfpossessed giant of the senate. Thank you. I appreciate you joining us here this evening. Lets get down do business. Ironic, huh. Yes. Thanks for having me. Im glad you have a sense of humor. Much needed in this time. President Biden Talks about restoring the soul of our country. He is telling allies that america is back and reassuring him that our democracy is alive and well. Are you confident hes right . Well, im not entirely confident because weve seen 70 of the republican party, the base of the republican party say that the election was stolen. Thats an existential threat to our democracy. You see whats going on around the country, these laws being passed at State Legislatures that are not only about suppressing votes of certain people, but also of giving elected officials in the state the power to overturn elections. Its very, very frightening. Im not terribly confident now. No. The power to overturn elections thats probably the biggest issue i think to look, all of its big, but thats probably the most frightening, that someone giving State Legislatures the power to overturn the will of the people. Thats huge. Yeah. Its enormous and its basically trying to do legislatively what trump was trying to do, you know, in georgia and by asking the Secretary Of State to find 11,780 vote, or wining and dining the State Legislatures from michigan, or going to the State Supreme Court with at least a large, large majority of republicans in the house supporting that and states attorneys general. I mean, they were trying to steal it. Trump could have stolen it if he could have. And so i dont this, yes, its very disturbing allowing State Legislatures to do what he couldnt do this time. Back at home, lets talk about whats going on here. While president is overseas. It appears that his agenda is getting stalled, at least for the moment. Well see. Republicans are blocking everything from Voting Rights, police reform, infrastructure. Biden is showing americans that government can work. But how can you do that how can he do that without ditching the gop . Well, this of course gets us down to what are they going to be able to do with reconciliation. So i believe they could do infrastructure with reconciliation. They could do that with 50 votes on the for the people act, that i dont know. And then that gets you to the filibuster. Ive had a plan to modify the filibuster going on 12 years. Joe manchin has said he would not vote to get rid of the filibuster, but he is open to a modification. What norm and i are saying is that it takes one person to go i object to create a filibuster. Then 60 votes, you need 60 votes to get cloture to end the filibuster. What were seeing is the burdens should be on the minority is trying to filibuster. They should have to show up, go to the floor, cast 41 votes to sustain the filibuster, and then stay there and do a talcing filibuster. They should have to debate what theyre trying to kill. I would like to see a debate. How would that change things . Well, they have to stay there. I know my colleagues, they wont want to stay there. Im talking about 41 republicans in this case would have to be on the floor at all times for 24 hours, for 48 hours. Chuck grassley is going to go im 87 years old. Im not going to you know. Mcconnell will say, okay, chuck only has to be here instead of 19 hours day, well let him be here only 10. You junior senators will have to be 21 or something. It will wear thin quickly. Yeah. Also theyll have to in other words, they will really have to care about what theyre filibustering instead of just automatically saying i object and we cant get to 60. Yeah. You have this new piece its in rolling stone. Its titled tax the rich, also the very affluent, but mainly the rich. Why do you think this is the only way to go by taxing the rich, also the affluet but mainly the rich. Its because they havent been paying their fair share. We just had an article in propublica that Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk paid no federal Income Taxes last year. They had Tax Cuts during the Trump Administration and theres stuff that biden has laid out thats very popular, including infrastructure, Child Care, early Childhood Education that not only should we do but we kind of have to do it. We cant afford not to. We need to do it. We need to we need to raise the upper tax bracket, back to 39. 6 . We need to raise the corporate rate. When they did the Trump Tax Cut and they reduced the corporate rate from 35 to 21 , all the ceos said were going the use that money to create jobs. No. They bought their stock back and gave themselves bonuses. We need to do this stuff. We need to fund k through 12 education so a Kids Education doesnt depend on his communitys tax base. Right. These are things that we really, really have to do. Were 13th in world in infrastructure. Thats not thats dangerous. Thats bad for every one. When a bridge collapses, a mercedes falls as fast as a hyundai. Its ridiculous that were 13th in the world. Americans dont want that. Thats why overwhelmingly americans want these things. They want Child Care. Every other country in the world has Child Care. Why do people want Child Care . So they can know that they are leaving their child with someone who will take care of their kid and its safe so they can go to work. Right. I dont think its too much to ask. Listen, people want Child Care. Youre right. We need to figure it out. We need to figure out infrastructure and that includes quite frankly much more than just roads and bridges. Al franken, thank you, sir. I appreciate it. Absolutely. Thanks, don. A Grocery Store Worker dead. Another injured, all because a customer was asked to pull up his mask. That story is next.
