Do you want to own that the vaccine was bad . I dont think so. Not long term. It is sketchy which is why trump doesnt own the vaccine, the way he could. He could say, hey, i brought it to you. Everybody, look how good everything is because of the vaccine. Take it, take it. He doesnt because he got booed in alabama and he knows there are too many in the base he doesnt want to upset. Do they want to own removing roe v. Wade and telling women from 8 to 80 you dont get to decide on your body . Lets say, from 18 to 80 because voting age. Yeah. You dont get to determine were talking about Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/freedom-and-freedom'>Freedom And Freedom of choice when it comes to the vaccine, but not for you, ladies. Yeah.

And then, the supreme Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/court-wont'>Court Wont be able to challenge us and we can go around getting your guns. Im just saying. You know, its a hypothetical.

And i think it makes the answer to a lot of your questions yes. Yes, they do want to be the ones who say the elections are all rigged. Yes, they do want to play short ball and get the wins when they can. You know, this was the same argument they used with the democrats about the filibuster, right . And the democrats, to this point, dont have the votes to blow it open and see what happens. It would be interesting to see what the republicans would do. Now, people will say, well, no, no, thats not fair. The republicans could have done it and they chose not to. They didnt need to. Uhhuh. Had they ever shown that they wont do what they need . Look what they are doing with the vaccines. The same people who were telling you its a freedom of choice for you to get it as if therell be no consequence are all vaccinated. Yeah.

What are you going is it that hard to put a piece of cloth over your face . Your choice. Its your choice. Okay. Let me tell you this. It is my choice. You know what is my choice . Is that i have a a a coworker who is a compromised immune system. So my choice is to be a real person a a citizen.

Its not my choice to compromise that person. Amen. And if it is, it is your choice. Nobodys saying that you must take the vaccine. You dont get to go where were gonna be. I agree. Then, you dont get to go where we are going to be because we dont have to. The majority, people who did the right thing, dont get to live at the behest of a minority. Its not how it works. Well, you know, i have been saying that since the beginning. I got a whole lot of guff for it. Saying, hey, maybe you shouldnt be doing that and that there should be vaccine mandates. But i stand by that and there should be. Just like you cant go to school, you cant send your kids to school. You have tHree kids. They have to be vaccinated. The society has mumps. Polio. Rubella.

And our very new cnn poll, nearly six in ten republicans and republicanleaning independents say believing the former president won in 2020 is an important part of being a republican what it means to them.

And that the loser actually won. Remember, it was the most secure election in american history.

Even though the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/big-lie'>Big Lie of Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/boguselection-fraud'>Boguselection Fraud is what fueled the insurrection at the capitol.

So, he blocked out his Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/license-plate'>License Plate with the american flag. Whats old is new, again. By the way, he was parked near the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/democratic-national-committee'>Democratic National Committee headquarters around midnight. All of that happening right now. Right under our noses. Thats why what one former president said about another former president s something that we all need to pay attention to in this current moment. In the weeks and months following the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11 attacks, i was proud to lead an amazing, resilient, united people. When it comes to the unity of america, those days seem distant from our own. Malign force seems at work in our common life. That turns every disagreement into an argument. And every argument into a clash of cultures. So much of our politics has become a naked appeal to anger, fear, and resentment. That leaves us worried about our nation and our future, together. A naked appeal to anger, fear, and resentment. Look. However you feel about george w. Bush, right, he wasnt when he was in office, he wasnt really known for his eloquence, right . He wasnt a great orator like barack obama. But what he said right there was the truth or, as they say, facts. He didnt even mention the former president s name. Didnt have to. Even though many people wish that he had done it. Me, including. We all need we we all know who he is talking about. The utterly unpresident ial former occupant of the white house, who isnt part of the president s club and probably wouldnt want to be. Well, actually, i take that back. He would really like to be part of the president s club but he is an outcast. And deservedly so. Confronted with what president george w. Bush said, he railed. He winced. He attacked in a statement, if you can call it that. Really, its just a collection of insults. Okay. Always. Formerpresident george w. Bush was in office on Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11. He knows the deadly toll of violent extremism, of foreign and domestic extremism. And he has a warning for this country 20 years after that terrible day. There is little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and violent extremists at home. But in their disregard for human life, in their determination to defile national symbols, they are children of the same foul spirit. And it is our continuing duty to confront them. So, foreign terrorists on Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11 attacked us for our freedom, for our democracy. The terrorists on Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th did the same thing. Attacking our capitol. Attacking our freedom and our democracy. Listen. The number of deaths completely different. Its not exactly apples to apples. But the principles behind it, same. They were our fellow americans, though, trying to overturn our free and fair election. Trying to stop the peaceful transfer of power. And as Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/president-bush'>President Bush said, children of the same foul spirit.

Right now, we are going to talk about a dangerous and pivotal point in american history. How the actions of formerpresident trump and his supporters could damage our democracy. Trump not only insists that he won the election. His lies made millions of americans doubt the u. S. Election system. He relentlessly pressured local Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-official'>Election Officials and the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/justice-department'>Justice Department to help reverse the results of the election. And when that that didnt work, his supporters turned to changing Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/voting-laws'>Voting Laws all across the country. To understand just how dangerous this is for our democracy, you have to look at the entire scope of the actions by trump. His Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/inner-circle'>Inner Circle and republican politicians who are clinging to his lies. It started on election day, and is still going on right now. Heres cnns senior investigative correspondent, drew griffin. Reporter Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/donald-trump'>Donald Trumps attempt to subvert the election started long before anyone voted. We are not going to lose this, except if they cheat. Reporter continued on election night. We want all voting to stop. Reporter sparked an attempted insurrection. We fight like hell. Reporter as disgraceful as trumps public words were, behind the scenes, trump and his Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/inner-circle'>Inner Circle were using all the powers of the president ial office to cheat. Not to stop the steal. But to start it. It was an attempt to undermine the will of the people. It was provfoundly antidemocratic and potentially criminal. Reporter the 45th President Of The United States tried to coerce the department of justice to lie on his behalf. While also strongarming Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/state-and-localelection'>State And Localelection officials to overtHrow the election. There is no question that our democracy is at a breaking point. Reporter in the weeks following the election, trump and his Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/inner-circle'>Inner Circle would wage a highpressure campaign. Hello, frances. How are you . Hello, brad, and ryan, and everybody. Its rudy giuliani. Reporter at least 30 contacts between trump and republican officials in crucial states. Georgia, michigan, pennsylvania, and arizona. This is the white Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/house-operator'>House Operator. I was out to dinner with friends, and a Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/phone-call'>Phone Call came in from washington, d. C. Of a number i did not recognize.

I was calling to let you know that the president s available to take your call if youre free. Reporter hickman let Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/the-call'>The Call go to voicemail. Days later, the white Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/house-operator'>House Operator called back. Hickman, again, refused to pick it up. Obviously, i thought it was going to be something to do about election and operations. And i was not prepared to talk about that. The governor of arizona had already certified it. The Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/attorney-general'>Attorney General of arizona and the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/secretary-of-state'>Secretary Of State had certified it. Reporter records now revealed dozens of Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/text-messages'>Text Messages and multiple Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/phone-call'>Phone Calls from the white house, from rudy giuliani, and also the head of arizonas Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/republican-party'>Republican Party.

Supervisor Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/bill-gates'>Bill Gates believes it was an attack on the constitution. I saw that a voicemail had popped up. It was just unbelievable to hear, you know, instantly, i knew who it was. I knew that voice. You know . Rudy giuliani, americas mayor. Bill, its rudy giuliani. President trumps lawyer.

You want us to turn over the ballots as soon as possible. Um, so that the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/state-senate'>State Senate can get to work. Get to work doing . One of the objectives was to get their hands on the ballot before the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th hearing in the capitol. They wanted evidence. To support decertifying the election. Its constitution be damned, really. Right. One of the main reasons i became a republican in the 1980s was i thought the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/republican-party'>Republican Party was the party of the rule of law. The party of the constitution. Reporter in michigan, a Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/wayne-county'>Wayne County republican Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-official'>Election Official voted to certify the election. Then, changed her mind after a call from Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/donald-trump'>Donald Trump. I have provided them with a copy of my affidavit rescinding my vote. Reporter in georgia, trump not only called the states Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/topelections-investigator'>Topelections Investigator whatever you can do, frances. Reporter but in what now is being investigated as a possible crime. Trump tried to convince Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/georgias-secretary'>Georgias Secretary of state, brad raffensperger, to change the vote count. And Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/theres-nothing'>Theres Nothing wrong with saying that, you know, that you have recalculated. It seems clearer and clearer that trump was actually trying to steal the election. He was actually trying to create conditions where he would be declared the winner, even though he actually lost the election. It is incredibly dangerous and destabilizing. Reporter and perhaps, most dangerous of all. President trump even tried to use the united Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/states-department'>States Department of justice to pull off his attempted coup. In the notes of a Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/december-27th'>December 27th Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/phone-call'>Phone Call now handed over to congressional investigators, trump told his actingHref='https://vimarsana.com/news/attorney-general'>Attorney General, jeffrey rosen, and his deputy, richard donoghue, just say that the election was corrupt. Leave the rest to me and the r congressmen. Both men refused trumps request and both have testified before the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/senate-judiciary-committee'>Senate Judiciary Committee chaired by senator dick durban. What was the most shocking to you . Just how directly, personally involved the president was. The pressure he was putting on jeffrey rosen. It was real. Very real. And it it was very specific. Reporter trump tried to Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/pressure-rosen'>Pressure Rosen to file a lawsuit in the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/supreme-court'>Supreme Court to declare that the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/electoral-college'>Electoral College votes Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/cast-cannot-be'>Cast Cannot Be counted.

Its an attempt to use the department of justice in order to influence the election thats run at the state and local levels. So it its dangerous. Its inappropriate and it should be unacceptable. Reporter and trump had been secretly working with someone inside the department of justice. An official from the environmental division named Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/jeffrey-clark'>Jeffrey Clark who was pushing allegations of Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/voter-fraud'>Voter Fraud despite all the evidence against it. Clark urged his bosses to sign a letter to Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/georgias-governor'>Georgias Governor containing a lie. It falsely claimed the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/justice-department'>Justice Department identified significant concerns that may have impacted the outcome of the election. And advised the governor to convene in special session. ActingHref='https://vimarsana.com/news/attorney-general'>Attorney General rosen and the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/deputy-ag-donoghue'>Deputy Ag Donoghue said no. The country came very close to a coup.

Yet, with no proof, with no facts, with no evidence at all that fraud played any role in his defeat, trump has convinced his base of support that the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/electoral-system'>Electoral System of the united states is corrupt.

Abraham lincoln said if this government falls, it will fall from within and we have to remember those things because it can. It could happen. Reporter one thing that Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/bill-gates'>Bill Gates, that Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/maricopa-county'>Maricopa County supervisor told me, don, is that if it werent for republicans who were willing to risk their careers, and were standing up for whats right, there might have been a very different outcome.

So lets bring in now, cnn senior legal analyst and former u. S. Attorney for the southern district of new york, Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/preet-bharara'>Preet Bharara. And cnn political commentator, Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/amanda-carpenter'>Amanda Carpenter. I mean, whats happening there, the president speaking is a perfect example of what were dealing with to this day because of the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/big-lie'>Big Lie. Good evening, to both of you. Preet, theres been a huge effort to try to shove what the president did, right, with this coup, with this attempted coup down a memory hole, especially with elected republicans. Why is that such a big mistake . Because for the reason youre describing. There is a lot to be concerned about, upset about, even angry about with respect to what that segment showed. That you had a sitting president who went out of his way, again and again and again, to weaponize his power, abuse his power with respect to the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/justice-department'>Justice Department and other officials to try to steal an election that he had lost. So, that Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/thats-something'>Thats Something thats in the past and was averted. The concern you have is not only was that attempt an attack on the constitution, it was also an attack on truth. And also, planted the idea in the minds and hearts of people like Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/larry-elder'>Larry Elder and others, well, thats not a bad ploy for me. If i win, i win and it was justified. And if i lose, it must have been fraud. And it it also causes people to realize, you know, the reporting on what happened at the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/justice-department'>Justice Department. There were a few people at the top who resisted the entreaties of the President Of The United States. The people who dont want to act in good faith and want to follow in Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/donald-trump'>Donald Trumps footsteps is make sure you put power in the hands of people who are more pliable and who can be persuaded to do terrible things like that Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/jeffrey-clark'>Jeffrey Clark character who also came up in in the segment. Rather than doing whats right. So the future harmed both in the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/california-election'>California Election and in the 2022 midterms and the 2024 election and elections all over the country. The concern is that people will do what Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/donald-trump'>Donald Trump did because they think it might help them and thats the thing to be concerned about, the most, i think. Yeah. Amanda, you are shaking your head in agreement. Why is that . What do you have to say . Yeah, because i absolutely agree that this is an ongoing event. I was so glad to see cnn Sit Down with those republicans in arizona who have really been on the frontline of this ongoing attack on democracy. I mean, they have had their election elections that withstood tHree professional audits. But tHrough this process, a lot of trump supporters have discovered that there is a lot of power in republican State Legislatures. The kind of power that allows just a handful of extremely partisan actors to seize ballots, turn them over to other partisan actors that results in the destruction potentially of election equipment. And theres still, you know, no report. The answer to no one. This these kinds of investigations arent to produce evidence. They serve, it is my belief, to keep the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/bigelection-lie'>Bigelection Lie going. And you had these kind of Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/sham-audits'>Sham Audits spreading to other states as we speak. Pennsylvania, wisconsin, texas. And so, what these partisantrump supporters are learning as a Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/test-run'>Test Run for future elections is what these State Legislatures can do. And so, while i am very um concerned about the rhetoric about rigged election, there is a lot of action happening on the ground that deserves um a lot a lot of attention. Um, Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/concern-and-scrutiny'>Concern And Scrutiny to prepare for what is absolutely coming in 2022. And 24. Right on.

You heard the second part of what drew reported there, the tHreats, preet, against Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-official'>Election Officials are horrifying. State republicans are passing laws to strip away power from nonpartisan Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-official'>Election Officials. What happens next time when they cant put the brakes like they did put on the brakes like they did in 2020 . You almost dont want to contemplate it. Thats why we should be contemplating it in advance to see what we can do about it. This program shines a light on it. People go to the polls and make their positions clear. That Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-official'>Election Official in georgia warned people about potential violence because its not just about the lie. Its not just about frivolous legal claims that are getting tHrown out of court, you know, scores and scores of them. Lawyers of the former president being sanctioned. Rudy giuliani losing his license at least temporarily in two jurisdictions. Other fines being brought against Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/sidney-powell'>Sidney Powell and others. Its not just about those things, but its about violence that culminated at least on one occasion in the Insurrection We Saw on Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th. That can happen again. So i think youre right to raise the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/issue-and-right'>Issue And Right to sound the alarm. And i think the place for good people to keep talking about it, to try to talk some sense into reasonableminded people and officials in government because the next time around, we might not have people who push back against their own party and put party over country. So that worries me a lot. Amanda, as preet mentioned, that tHreat of violence, Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/capitol-police'>Capitol Police issuing an Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/emergency-declaration'>Emergency Declaration ahead of a rally this saturday in support of the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th rioters.

Are you worried we can see another incident, another attack like the one in january . Yeah, im worried about the u. S. Capitol. Im worried about capitols all over the country that have become targets for political violence. I mean we had Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th. We had you know, just in recent weeks, a guy having a bomb tHreat, more people you know, a guy getting caught with a machete. This is bad news thats happening here. When we talk about what happened and what can be done on a federal level, i do think too much attention is really paid to the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/voter-suppression-side'>Voter Suppression Side because the real tHreat that caused the violence on Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th was on the overturning the vote side, the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-subversion'>Election Subversion aspect of it. And that is what so many trump partisans on the ground are exploring, ways to overturn elections. And in some cases, that bar is pretty low. I mean look at what happened on Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/january-6th'>January 6th. All it took to object to the results of millions and millions of votes was one senator and one member of the house. Thats it, and that stopped proceedings and allowed a lot of bad actors to come in, to storm the capitol because they believed they had an opening there. So we are going to have a big discussion about Voting Rights and ways that we can protect Election Workers and all these good things. But the tHreat i see right now is on the Href='https://vimarsana.com/news/election-subversion'>Election Subversion side, Overturning Elections with the tHreats of violence.
