Good evening, im erin burnett. Out Front Tonight the coup attempt. Tonights investigation into former president Donald Trumps attempts to overturn the election if his role of the January 6th insurrection is entering a whole new phase. The January 6th select committee is now taking over all aspects of the investigation and there are two crucial witnesses who could be calls to appear before the panel. The acting tomorrow Jeffrey Ro rosened a and his deputy Richard Donahue. Now the House Oversight Committee was set to interview them this week. Now we have learned the January 6th committee will take off where they left off. This will be one investigation. Theyre important. Because Rosen And Donahue know first hand, trumps repeated attempts to use the Justice Department to overturn the 2020 election. Today we get details how he tried to use the Department Of Justice to pursue and to create basis claims of Voter Fraud, including what one official who went so far as to draft a Resignation Letter in response to what he said were Twump U trumps questions to the results. This was drafted january 3rd, three days before the deadly insurrection. But the Pressure Campaign started long before that and i want to lay it out for you. Sow understand what we are really looking at here. Im start with december 1st. On december 1st, trump summoned then Tomorrow Bill Bar a to meet with him. After barr told the Associated Press the Department Of Justice had quote not seen fraud on a scale that could have affectled a different outcome in the election. Period, number stop. Basic facts from bill barr. According to abc News Reporter jonathan karl, trump said, quote, the Eye And Mannerism of a madman in this meeting with barr. Barr tells trump in this meeting december 1st, to trump, you keep on saying the Department Of Justice is not looking at this stuff and we are looking at it in the a responsible way. But your people keep on shoveling this sh out. Thats what barr said lets move on. December 3rd. This is what trumps cronies were actually shoveling out. The democrats worked into the middle of the night, moved republicans out of the room. Took ballots under a table and counted them in the middle of the night. They have fought so hard to get rid of President Trump and tried every dirty, nasty illegal trick in the book to do it. Yes, it is pure evil. Okay. So thats what was being shovelled out. Then comes december 14th. An hour before trump announces barr would step down because thats how they relationship was going to go after barr is the truth. Trumps Personal Assistant fires an email to the incoming Jeffrey Rosen. It claims to show evidence of Voter Fraud in michigan. The same claims that were tossed out by a federal judge a week earlier. Ill give you another date, december 23rd, trump picks up the phone and calls georgias top investigator, you remembering her to find the quote dos honesty. Whatever you can do, frances, it would be a great thing. If the right answer comes at you, you will be praised. You will be praised. December 26th. Trump, obviously unhappy that the Justice Department had not publicly come out to say there was Election Fraud fires off a tweet. He says the Justice Department is put in quote and the fbi has done nothing about the 2020 election Voter Fraud. The biggest scam in our nations history, despite overwhelming evidence. They should be ashamed. History will remember. Never give up. See everyone in d. C. On January 6th. December 27ing, trump holds a call with the then acting tomorrow Jeffrey Rosen, rosens deputy, Richard Donahue is in the call. Hes taking notes. So he takes notes according to done a hue, heres what trump said and i quote, just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the republican congressman. December 28th. Jeffrey clark, a Trump Loyalist who works at the Justice Department circulates a letter. This calls on georgia to convene a special legislative session to look into Quote Irreconciling Laters in the 2020 election. The letter falsely claims that the doj identified quote significant concerns that may have impacted the outcome of the election in multiple states, including the state of georgia. End quote. That is a complete lie. The Department Of Justice had not identified that. Its a lie. Barr had already said it was a lie. This Guy Clark goes out, send out this lie. Well, doj officials rejected his request to send that specific letter. Trump doesnt stop. In the days that follow. He continues to go out there. He is growing more desperate at this point. December wipe thelet. Mark meadows has a meeting with rosen and several others, the top sick Voter Fraud. January 1st, meadows again emails rosen and in this email Meadows Chief of staff to the president of the united states sends rosen a youtube video. It thaux about italks about italian satellites fixing the u. S. Election. Im not kidding you. This comes from the rosen emailed this, responds, pure insanity. January 2nd, trump again picks up the phone and calls Georgia Action top election officials, including the Secretary Of State brad raffensperger. All i want to the do is this, i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. Because we won the state. Okay. And that was just one of 18 attempted calls to the Secretary Of State since election day. And that weekend, january 3rd, trump appears to abandon his threats to replace rosen after top Justice Officials threatened to resign en mass. Two days before the election, this is what we heard from trump publicly. Over the past few weeks, weve demonstrated that weve won the election in a happened slide. The fact is we won the president ial election. We won it big and were going to win tomorrow. What was tomorrow . Hmm. January 6th. The day of the insurrection. Trumps efforts to overturn the election then came to a head. His supporters gathering in Washington And Trump taking matters into his own hands as he whips them up into a frenzy and unleashes them onto the capitol where the lawmakers were meeting to validate the election results. We fight like he. If you dont fight like hell, you will not have a country jaromir. We will walk down, ill be there with you. We will walk down to the capitol and were going to cheer on our brave as far as and congress Men And Women. Out front live on Capitol Hill. Its incredible when you do this, take the date stamps and look at what trump did and said. It is incredibly powerful to put it altogether. What are you learning what the January 6th committee is planning to do now . They performer live got more power after it became the committee would be the main investigative committee In The House Of Representatives looking into what happened on January 6th. Everything that Donald Trump did. Everything about the Communications Breakdown that led to the deadly insurrection that happened at the capitol on January 6th. It was announced the House Oversight Committee, which had been doing a number of interviews with key Justice Official whos had interactions and clear insight into Donald Trumps actions. They no longer would be doing that work. Instead it would be handed over to the select committee with then members and two republicans. Republican Leader Mccarthy claimed to not name anybody. Nevertheless, the committee is charging forward after there are clear lines of investigation and they undoubtedly will interview some of these key officials. The aide tells Me The Committee Will Quote Part of its ongoing investigation will report conduct interviews related to January 6th and also on the senate side, Dick Durbin pressing ahead, telling me Jeffrey Clark, the man you mentioned, the official who tried to pressure states to overturn the elections, he wants to talk to him as well, erin. Thank you very much. So i want to go straight to ryan goodman. He is the former Special Counsel at the Department Of Defense and now the professor of Ny School of law along with john dean. I appreciate both of you. We need your analysis as you look at this moving to a new phase. When you look at the totality of what trump did in the weeks leading up to January 6th of which i just laid out some of it. The pressure he was putting on officials to back his lie from georgia to the Department Of Justice to other states. Do you see a crime here by trump . Erin, thank you. I certainly do. Thats an impressive list. I think its an important list. The only thing i would add is the bending of the arm of the Vice President as well goes into there. And it is a clear effort to overthrow the election. It is a very conspicuous conspiracy as its finally surfaced. To me, it is the cream that got everybody in watergate, which is 18 usc 371. Its defrauding the government. Its interfering with our processes. This is a classic f. That statute doesnt fit for this, that statute has no meaning. Ryan, do you see a crime by Trump Or Anyone else here . I absolutely do. Its, in fact, ha ready to escape a conclusion. There is also the Hatch Act. The Hatch Act is not enforced generally because there is only one specific criminal provision. The criminal provision fits this like a hand in a glove. The criminal division actually says if you try i to pressure an official to support one candidate in a campaign, thats it. And they can be prosecuted for that. So all of the documentation that we have of trump and Mark Meadows reaching into the Justice Department to pressure them to carry out these investigations and try to flip the results in georgia, meet that quite scarily. So, john, according to new reporting by our Justice Reporter evan perez. And this is really interesting. Because i lay that all out. So much of it involves the Department Of Justice. The Department Of Justice according to evan right now is not looking at these events as prosecutable right now. So, john, what is your reaction to that . And is the doj doing enough . Thats fairly stunning reporting. Im kind of disappointed with the department, come what may, they should be investigating this, even if its to exonerate trump. Which I Cant imagine. But to at least dig into it. Theyre sort of waiting for the results of the assistant u. S. Attorneys investigation in the district of colombia to see if anything surfaces and head up. They are kind of waiting for a crime to quall in their lap. I dont think thats appropriate. I guarantee, i didnt blow the whistle in watergate to lay the predicate for trump to disrupt the entire government in the electoral process. This is pretty serious stuff and much u much worse than watergate. Im surprised theyre doing nothing. Ryan, we know they were supposed to interview Jeffrey Rosen with his former attorney done a hue. They are standing down. The January 6th committee is taking over. We dont know yet when those interviews might happen. When i layout their role, donahue taking note of some of these calls when trump says just go out and say theres fraud. Go Say It, Say It was raid and ill Take Care of the rest. Lou important could the testimony of mr. Rosen and done a hue be . So i think it can be incredibly important. The December 27th call he says, just Say It was corrupt. He threatens them and says i have been told that i should maybe change the leadership of the Justice Department and put in jeff clark. So hes saying it all right there. That is coercion. Thats pressure. I think the committee mostly wants to hear from those particular individuals on that call with trump and who are subject to the weeks long repeated efforts by trump to get them to use the Justice Departments powers for improper purposes. Thats basically i paraphrased the draft ill lit racing, which is another document. They need to speak to them about that. Which is crucial. I want to remind viewers Jeffrey Clark was the one who wrote a Letter Calling on georgia to have a Special Session to look at irregularitys. In the letter he died saying the doj had identified significant concerns that may have impacted the outcome of the election. Jeffrey clark had written a lot of that, that had lies in it about the election. All right. Thank you both very much. I appreciate your time. And next, the battle between Biden And Desantis escalating tonight. He responds to the governor vowing to quote stand in the way of bidens plans to combat covid. Plus a republican official dies from covid days after mocking masks and vaccines. Its sad. Sadly, hes not the first public figure to downplay the virus only to lose his life to it. And trump supporters may have a new way to show their devotion, a trump loyalty card. You need an ecolab scientific clean here. And here. Which is why the scientific expertise that helps Operating Rooms stay clean now helps the places you go too. Look for the Ecolab Science certified seal. New tonight, President Biden mocking Floridas GovernorRon Desantis after a war of words between the two over how to deal with covid. Using your words about dont be in the way and he said, i am in the way. You blocked too much from the government. What is your response to Governor Desantis . Governor who . Now john kasich, former governor of ohio and 2016 president ial candidate as you know. Governor in the spring, President Biden stayed silent when gop governors lifted covid restrictions. He tried to stay out of it. Obviously, biden and his team are calling them out. Is it a smart fight for biden do you think . I think its the thing to do. You saw where the governor of arkansas, Asa Hutchinson signed a ban on masks. He said he wish he hadnt done it, called his legislature in to try to change that. Look, republicans are supposed to believe in local control. Sow dont want to have a governor telling local people what they can do like a School District. If they want to have the kids in that School District wear a mask, they should be able to. Frankly, its hard to believe they stand up against that. Because we are all in this fight together. Not just on masks, maybe we can tell you about masks. We should not be fighting vaccinations, we should be in there together. He lashed out after biden says governors should do the right thing or get out of the way. Here is some of what we heard. Joe biden suggests that if you dont do lockdown policies, then you should quote get out of the way. Let me tell you this, if you are coming after the rights of parents in florida, im standing in your way. Im not going to let you get away with it. So why dont you do your job. Why dont you get this border secure and until you do that, i dont want to hear a blip about covid from you. What do you make of the tone from desantis . Well, it makes It Sound like hes trying to run against Joe Biden for president starting today. The 80 that if a local School District wants to use masks to protect the kids. He says you cant do it. To me, its irresponsible. I dont understand. I dont understand that position. I wish you could explain it to me, because i Cant Figure out why anybody would do that . Why would a leader of a st. Where you see this Delta Virus spiking like crazy tell local government if you want to use a mask, im prohibiting you from doing the it . It makes absolutely no sense to me, unless you are playing to some sort of an uns and in the middle of all this, we should not be using political Mumbo Jumbo here to try to promote ones self, but we should all be in this together. Of course, you know, ive had on members of unions defying what desan is is saying. He is threatening to take away their funding. He is going to the mat with this. Its not the points of the republicans prideing themselves on local governments and ideas and an edict from one governor again. Its the statistics in florida which leads the nations in new Adult And Child hospitalizations, Number One in both. Its spin for one in five cases in the entire country. Right. But yet this is what we keep hearing from Governor Desantis. In florida, we chose freedom over fauciism. Were much better off for doing that. Florida is free. We pride ourselves on people being free to government their affairs. We can either ver a Free Society or a biomed cal security state. Can i tell you, florida, were a free state. So governor, do you think this works . He thinks it resonates for his base for reelection. Maybe for 2024 as well. Do you agree from a strategic Point Of View or will it backfire . Maybe he believes this. But, you know, i was governor of the 7th largest state. I wouldnt have imagined telling a local School District that you shouldnt protect yourself against something thats a virus like this. It doesnt make sense to me. I dont understand the political calculation unless there is an appeal to a narrow group of people who feel this is great. You know, people are free in florida. Theyre free in arkansas, all over the country. Thats what americans are, to say because a local School District wants to say to parents, i want your kids to be vaccinated so they can be safe. I dont understand how Thats Loss of freedom. Thats a decision at the local level. One of the tenants is i have been conserved is that you allow people to make decisions and to have local control. Just listen to republicans when they talk about local control. Now all of a sudden on high im going to strip local control iowa. I dont agree. I capitals say any more, be any more clear than that, erin. Governor kasich. I appreciate your time, thank you, when you lay this out, let me give everyone another example. Another republican who opposes Mandates Fires back against biden im talking about Henry Mcmaster who came out and said every day illegal immigrants and Drug Makers enter unvaccinated, untouched. Yet an american Citizen Wouldnt make it into an airport like that. The Hip Progrypocrisy is danger. It includes a Plan Date for elementary and middle schools. Now, benjamin, i appreciate your time. So classes begin for you in leps than two weeks. Why did you think the Mask Mandate is necessary . Well, weve seen a precipitous rise in cases between the 1st Of July and The End of july 10fold increase in covid19 cases and sixhold increase in hospitalizations. Just early this week, our Childrens Hospital announced they were at capacity almost every single day treating Children Who are dealing with either covid19 or rsb. It seemed there was this odd pro Seisso Plug into our State Budget that sought to deprive School Districts as Governor Kasich said of their ability to provide masks or have masking policies in place to protect the children. I also took an oath when i decide to run for office over a decade ago to protect the lives, safety, Health And Welfare of our citizens. It didnt make sense to me, it was illegal, either moral or unconstitutional. The state of Emergency Yesterday our City Council validated that emergency. It is now in place in the city of colombia the next 61 days. So a spokesman for Governor Mcmaster responding to you said, quote, this is another attempt to force children to wear masks in schools without a bit of consideration for or a parents right to make that decision. State law prohibits Mask Mandates in public schools and the ordinance would require teachers and administrators to violate State Law. I dont know if you heard Governor Kasich. He is making the point, its ironic republican governors would try to mandate what local jurisdictions should do. That would go against centers of conservative. Sprat to that, what do you say to the fundamental Am Point here . The fundamental point is that the Governor Spokesperson is wrong. The law does not say that. And, obviously, i reach out to our tomorrow, who we had significant disagreements on some points of law in the past as well and were prepared to defend this to the u. S. Supreme court. Our State Law does not say that. If, in fact, it did, quite frankly, it would be ill moral. We have in South Carolina a closer attendance law. Most states to. We are required, i am required to send my 14yearold daughters to school under penalty of day under fine or imprisonment. If i were to send my children to school, you are required to keep my children healthy and safe lysle while there their and these laws a immoral. They seek to low down the spread of covid19 by using good data, if data gives you the ability to create good decisions and policies. You need to trust these Men And Women who work every day to educate our children and do it in a safe environment. So were putting on the Boxing Gloves here. Were on the side of right here in colombia. Were going to work every single day to protect these babies. Not mind you, erin, our policy, our law is narrowly tailored, vaccines approved for those children under 12yearsold. So this focuses on Elementary Schools and middle schools. Children who by definition cannot be vaccinate ltd. They are voiceless, voteless. Thats what mayors do, School District leaders do as good parents do. I appreciate your time. Thank you. Thank you. God bless. All right. Next, a Texas Gop Official praised Mask Burnings and says vaccines dont really work. Less than a week later, he was dead, from covid. And more Breaking News from Capitol Hill.

The Number One thing we can do to support our local businesses is get out of their way. Reporter that was texas republican h. Scott aptly in 2014, before the pandemic came along and he became a raging critic, praising Mask Burnings, calling a Health Official promoting vaccine, an absolute enemy of a free people and last friday echoing a claim vaccines dont really work anyway. But just after posting that, according to a Go Fund Me Page Set up for his family, he was admitted to a hospital, diagnosed with covid and by tuesday he was dead. The virus, theyre working hard. It looks like by april, you know in theory, when it gets a little warmer, miraculously goes away. I hope thats true. Reporter plenty of republicans dismissed President Trumps threat even when he ended up with the virus. Her Man Cane downplayed masking at one point before he went to a crowded Trump Rally unmasked last summer, developed covid symptoms and died. Gop downplaying of the danger did not stop them. Not even close. In tennessee, conservative Radio Host Phil ballentine joked about the virus this summer. Then it nearly killed him and left his brother pleading with the public. We want as many people as can hear my voice this morning to put politics aside, go get the vaccine. Reporter in louisiana, he died in December Weeks to before he was sworn into congress. He wanted the vaccine. It wasnt available. Now his Wife Cant believe others still wont take it. I would have given anything, i would have given everything for that shot to be available for us. I mean, looking back now, and for someone to turn it away, its heart breaking to me. Reporter still a recent poll found nearly a third of republicans insist they will never take the vaccine even as other people like Travis Campbell who didnt get around to getting the shot is also begging from his Hospital Bed for everyone to get on board. Result me. If you all have a chance, dont follow [ indiscernable ] just protect yourself. Yes, some republican leaders are now in a lukewarm fashion embracing the idea we should do something about this. But an awful lot of others remain white hot against Mask Mandates and any social distancing, against any sense there should be restrictions if you do not get the vaccination even while their own supporters keep getting sick and dying. Erin. All right. Thank you very much, tom. And i bring in now dr. Jonathan reiner, medical Adviser George w. Bush white house. Dr. Reiner, first your reaction to what happened to scott aptly. Its horrible. Yeah. Its horrible. My condolences to mr. Aptlys family. There should be no for the death of somebody like mr. Aptly or Anyone Else who has, you know, doubted the seriousness of this of horrible pandemic and yet has gotten sick. This virus has split the country by politics and this is the tragedy that weve let politics blind people to science. I am reminded that at the time of the signing the declaration of independence, that benjamin frankly said very appreciationly, if we dont all hang together, we will hang separately. We need to come together as a country and listen to scientists, not politicians, about this pandemic. 96 of physicians in this country have been vaccinated. Thats about all the public needs to understand right now. Physicians get it. The public needs to get it. You shouldnt be listening to polarized politics. So republican Senator Lindsey Graham is recovering from a breakthrough infection. He did get sick. He told the ap that he spoke to former President Trump and he said to trump, quote, ive urged him. He said, ive urged him to be aggressive and say, take the vaccine. So Lindsey Graham says he says this to Trump And Graeme is calm at this time antidote well be right Backing Havoc on our hospitals. He is calling trump. Trump, of course, hasnt done it. What do you say to Senator Graham . Where has he been for the last 18 months . For the last I Cant months since the vaccine has been released. You know, Senator Graham has been v been very effective Adviser And Enabler and Golf Caddie for the former president. But he has not wanted to run foul of him. Which is why you havent heard him vigorously urging americans or south carolinians to become vaccinated despite the fact that almost 10,000 people in his state have died from this terrible pandemic. Thank you, senator, for saying what was so painfully obvious. Dr. Rheiner, thank you very much. Sure. My pleasure. And next, trumps Die Hard Supporters may soon have a few way to show their devotion to the former president. An actual loyally card. And Breaking News, Chuck Schumer announces the senate will vote on bidens massive Infrastructure Bill tonight. We will go to Capitol Hill for the latest on this breaking story.

Tonight Donald Trump wants americans to carry Trump Cards. So the political Action Committee emailing supporters asking them to choose from these four Card Designs announcing they are launching official Trump Cards for his strongest supporters to carry. Now this rays eyebrows. It goes to fascist parties and communist parties. One of his designs is drawing comparisons to the nazi War Evil wh which is obviously a hate symbol. Bill crystal, editor at large of the bullwork and defending democracy together. So, bill, the campaign sends out these emails for the strongest supporters to carry. You can pick your designs to nominate. What do you make of this . I dont know if you ever carried around a Card Professing loyalty to a person or idommize a person . The closest is i pay have cared around a baseball card, al troyline, midfielder. My hero because i didnt like the yankees. A wonderful right Field And Baseball player, an impressive man. Anyway, i carried around his card when i was 10 years old. Its one thing, 10yearolds should carry around baseball cards. Adult citizens should not carry something weird about carrying around a card. Caleb is a good baseball player. Donald trump is not a good president. It is bizarre, it is something that has been done you know in communist countries, fascist countries, that itself the history of the cardcarrying global member. Yeah, the authoritarian side not to mention, the authoritarian side. But it was also, bill, in the context of the people who are being told that they can carry and these cards to show their loyalty to the former president are the same wing of the republican party who say if they are asked to carry a Vaccine Card its such sort of a fascist state asking them to do this. Just listen to this. I am not going to go up there and show my vaccine passport. Im not going to give in to this tyrannical regime. I thapt you to be required to have something called a covid passport and this would mandate your ability to be able to travel and go to events. No vaccine passport. Yes, trump loyalty card. Do youhypocrisy . Yes, the loyalty to Trump Isnt Sort of free. Its not something, oh, okay, people like him a lot. That stupidly buy this card and carry it around. Theyre being loyal to someone who didnt Tell The Truth about covid while president , has done very little, almost nothing to get people vaccinated since. Has propagated the Big Lie about it and thats the person whose card they want to carry. Its not silly, i came to washington, in the administration and we really looked up to President Reagan in re retrospect and probably overdid it a little. The Idolization Of Trump goes along with denying the truth, you know. So all this comes as Tucker Karlsson is broadcasting from budapest and celebrating the rightwing victor orbands regime, crushed for years. Heres the calls Last Night Celebrating for his leadership. Its international pressure. They called him all kind of names. The eu called what he was doing illegal. But he did it anyway. He built a wall. He said to a hungarian Minister Standing there, its hard to believe thats your policy, you come here legally, you are quartered out . He said, quote, were a serious company. Howell barrasing to be an american in a conversation like that. Now, though he called this a weeklong infomercial for authoritarianism. Is this what trump republicans want . It is sort of the ultimate Working Out of trumpism i think. Kind of idolization of europeanstyle rightwing totaliarism. I had a woman that left hungary because they were cracking down on universities on Freedom Of Speech and the press. Incredible corruption and soft. I mean, the idea that he is mocking people who are critical of this person was really eroding democracy, one of the great achievements in the last 30 areas, right. Is liberating the fall of the roman wall. Iron curtain, all these countries, to be able to achieve democracy. For tucker carlson, its kind of a joke that he is destroying democracy in hungary. I hope he goes through some of the amazing buildings there as many of us has and sees the Bullet Holes on the wall so he can see what people sacrificed to get democracy there in bu bud budapest, thank you very much.

An attempt to pass the bipartisan Infrastructure Bill tonight which would give President Biden a massive victory. Manu, what is happening right now . There are negotiations happening behind the scenes to set up this vote on final passage that would essentially kick in over to the house. Theyre still going back and forth to set up this vote. That is not a done deal yet. If theres not an agreement to have a Vote Tonight it could potentially get kicked into the weekend or into early next week for final passage. Its moving in the direction to get this bill out of the senate. That despite a number that came back from the Budget Office Today that said that this bill had 256 Billion to the deficit. That is Something Bill supporters say this bill will be fully paid for but the congressional Budget Office had some difference. It is still expected to pass with republican support, potentially even the support of the republican leader, mitch mcconnell. All right, so this is something.
