little about just about everything. he could talk to anyone. loved the grateful dead, he loved good food. he was a huge anthony bourdain fan. more than that, though, ed loved to listen. when he asked even the simplest things like, how are you doing? or how is the family? he really cared about the answer. it wasn't just a -- a nicety. he really listened. for more than 20 years, until his sudden and untimely passing which is, frankly, incomprehensible to all of us who worked with ed and cared about ed dying over the weekend, we were his family and we always will be. and right now, we, as a family, here we miss him terribly. he was a great, lovely, sweet, kind, smart, and funny man and he will be forever missed. this is "don lemon tonight." thank you for joining. here is our breaking news. we have exclusive details about the plot to overturn our free and fair election. it went so much farther than the insurrection on january 6th. so much farther than that. here's what sources are telling cnn -- that the former president's advisers didn't just draft one executive order to seize voting machines, there were two. one, directing the pentagon to seize the machines. and the other, directing homeland security to do it. that's how serious they were. that's how far they were willing to go to try to overturn the election. we have got more coming up on this, but it makes this -- that you are about to hear -- really chilling. . >> if i run and if i win, we will treat those people from january 6th fairly. we will treat them fairly. and if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly. >> there is no other way to put this. this is the former president of the united states throwing the rule of law out the window. because the insurrectionists on january 6th were doing what he wanted them to do. he is admitting what january 6th was all about, not only saying the quiet part out loud, he is putting it in writing and i quote, actually, what they are saying is that mike pence did have the right to change the outcome, and they now want to take that right away. unfortunately, he didn't exercise that power. he could have overturned the election. that's a quote in writing. did you ever think that you would hear a former president who, with his hand on the bible, swore to preserve, protect, and defend the constitution. did you ever think you would hear him say that he wanted to overturn an election? now, you may be saying you just don't want to hear from the disgraced, twice-impeached, one-term former president. a man who incited a bloody insurrection at the united states capitol. and look. i do get that. trust me. i get it. but this is not just a defeated president, a loser. this is the former commander-in-chief defending -- defending the insurrectionists who beat police within an inch of their lives, and hunted for lawmakers in the halls of congress. and saying -- threatening, really, that he'd pardon them. so, he would pardon this? this crowd dragging then-officer michael fanone down the steps, beating him, tasing him, one rioter shouting "kill him with his own gun"? he'd pardon this? officer daniel hodges crushed by that crowd, screaming out in pain. he'd pardon this? rioters threatening to hang his own vice president? >> hang mike pence! hang mike pence! hang mike pence! in his speech before the attack on the capitol began, he told the crowd to fight like hell. >> and we fight. we fight like hell and if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore. >> uh-huh. and now, he wants to pardon the insurrectionists who did just that. giving aid and encouragement to those who tried to violently overturn our free and fair election, while the rest of us watched in horror. we all remember what he said during the 2016 campaign, seeming to suggest violence against hillary clinton. >> if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. although the second amendment people, maybe thisere is. i don't know. >> hmm, remember his threat that the -- his threat the tough guys -- whatever -- treat the tough guys he claimed supported him? a threat, i should say, the tough guys he claims supported him, like bikers for trump. who make things -- his words -- very bad. today, the white house calling him an existential threat to our democracy and unfit for office. really seems to have the former president steamed. the multiple ongoing investigations into his family. his family and their business by prosecutors who just happen to be black. prosecutors, he calls, racist for daring to investigate him. >> if these radical, vicious, racist prosecutors do anything wrong or illegal, i hope we are going to have, in this country, the biggest protest we have ever had in washington, d.c., in new york, in atlanta, and elsewhere because our country and our elections are corrupt. they're corrupt. >> you heard that. he wants the biggest protest we have ever had while the memory of blood-thirsty rioters storming the call capitol is still fresh in our minds. and he calls the election -- his own official said was the most secure in history -- he calls it corrupt? exactly, the big lie that fired up those rioters, in the first place. no wonder the fulton county da is asking for security for her staff has they investigate trump's efforts to overturn the election in georgia. and then, there is the continuing gop brouhaha over president joe biden. him vowing to keep his campaign promise, and nominate the first black woman to the supreme court. senator susan collins claiming president biden politicized the nomination by making his pledge as a candidate, just hike ronald reagan did. >> it isn't exactly the same. i've looked at what was done in both cases, and what president biden did was, as a candidate, make this pledge. and that helped politicize the entire nomination process. but what president reagan said is as one of his supreme court justices, he would like to appoint a woman. and he appointed a highly-qualified one in sandra day o'connor. >> huh? i mean, listen, i don't want to be disrespectful. but i mean, maybe -- she's a sitting senator. so, just to -- to -- just so there is no mistake or misconstruing about whatever -- whatever this is, right? so we can understand it. there is always a videotape. so, i want you guys to listen closely. this is exactly what ronald reagan said during the 1980 campaign. >> i am announcing today that one of the first supreme court vacancies in my administration will be filled by the most qualified woman i can possibly find. one, who meets the high standards i will demand for all court appointments. it's time for a woman to sit among our highest jurists. >> oh, my god, he was wearing a tan suit. i digress, though. so, you heard what he said. now, it's -- it sounds pretty similar to me. judge for yourself but it sounds a whole lot like what joe biden said during the 2020 campaign. >> if i am elected president and have an opportunity to appoint someone to the courts, will be -- i will appoint the first black woman to the courts. it's required that they have representation now. it's long overdue. >> okay. so, joe biden, when he was a candidate, vowed to appoint the first black woman to the highest court in the land. ronald reagan, when he was a candidate, vowed to appoint a woman to the highest court in the land. what's the difference? let's think about that. what has got republicans so worked up? ted cruz might be able to give us a clue. >> the fact that he is willing to make a promise at the outset that it must be a black woman, i got to say that's offensive. >> right. >> you know, black women are, what, 6% of the u.s. population? he is saying to 94% of americans, i don't give a damn about you. you are ineligible. he -- he is saying if you are a white guy, tough luck. if you are a white woman, tough luck. you don't qualify. >> that's actually not what he said. he didn't say you were ineligible. right? he said it's high time that black women have representation on the court. he didn't say white guys were ineligible, especially since most the supreme court justices are white guys. ted cruz -- i mean, what is -- did he go to an ivy league school? like, come on, man. also, keep in mind that, out of 115 justices so far, there have been 108 white men. you know, mathematician but that seems like an overwhelming majority to me. out of 115, 108 white men. two black men. and five women. four of them, white. one, latino. now, if you do the math, that means zero black women. not one single black woman -- not yet. but the fact -- that fact hasn't stopped republicans, like senator roger wicker from crying, you know, affirmative action. >> the irony is that the supreme court is, at the very same time, hearing cases about -- about this sort of affirmative racial discrimination. and -- and -- and it -- while adding someone who is the beneficiary of -- of the sort of quota. >> these dudes. this sort of quota. what is a quota when there isn't any? you know, quota. senator wicker telling cnn tonight -- and a quote here -- diversity on the court is a wonderful thing, end quote. but seeming to stand by what he said in his interview. so, that's really where we are tonight. this is where we are. this -- two presidents can say virtually the same thing, and people see it differently because of what? that's where we are tonight and these are facts. this is not my opinion. this is where we are tonight. with people harkening back to that -- i thought that language of like quotas was done in the '70s and '80s when people started talking about that. republicans arguing over the race of a supreme court nominee who hasn't even been chosen, yet. a former commander in chief saying he wants to pardon insurrectionists who almost brought down our democracy. all, over his big lie. i have said it before. justice matters. justices matter. truth matters. our democracy depends on it. i want to bring in now cn's paula reid. she has more on our breaking news tonight. paula, good evening to you. thank you for joining so let's get right to it. so, trump had more than bun one dpektive order drafted, ready to go, to seize voting machines. what else do you know? >> that's right, don. sources tell cnn following the 2020 election, former-president trump's legal advisers drafted two versions of an executive order to seize voting machines. one, directing the department of defense to seize the machines. and the other, directing the department of homeland security to do so. now, of course, we have, previously, reported the existence of a draft order tasking the pentagon with seizing machines. and that document has been handed over to the house select committee investigating january 6th by the national archives. now, multiple sources tell cnn that a second version of the same document, also, exists. but instructs dhs to carry out the same task. now, neither memo was ever issued. but it shows, don, the lengths trump's advisers were willing to go to as part of their broader effort to undermine the election results. >> is it clear, paula -- is it clear, yet, who drafted these unsigned executive orders? >> so, multiple sources tell cnn that the idea of using the federal government to access voting machines was the brainchild of retired colonel phil waldron and former trump national security adviser mike flynn. both army veterans were pushing the narrative that the election was stolen from trump. but at this point, it's not clear who specifically put pen to paper to draft the eo, itself. now, trump's former-personal attorney, rudy giuliani, he was the one spearheading the efforts to challenge the election results. and we have learned that giuliani approached ken cuccinelli, who at the time was second in command at homeland security, about seizing voting machines after the election. and cuccinelli told him we don't have authority to do that. now, cuccinelli tells cnn his discussions with giuliani never developed to the point of talking specifically about an executive order. but now, we know the house select committee is looking into this effort to draft an executive order and how it began, including the rules of giuliani, flynn, waldron, and former-trump attorney sidney powell. >> paula, thank you for your reporting. i appreciate that. just imagine what would have happened if the former president had signed those executive orders, if voting machines had been seized. will the plot to overthrow our democracy have worked?

>> don, this is the slide of democracy into fascism. i mean, that's what we are loo looking at here, right? and the -- and the irony, or maybe i should say hypocrisy of this coming from the conservative -- um -- you know, side of our political life and the people who are constantly referring to their belief in the constitution to have a president who so blithely dismisses the very clear guidance of our constitution, and proposes, in draft form anyway, taking these like draconian fascist measures to completely undermine our democracy for the perpetuation of his own political power. it is -- um -- it's startling. it really is, on every level. >> he well i mean, john, i feel like -- um -- gosh, i am having a senior moment now. but network where, you know, in the window. you know, go to your window and say on screen i'm mad as hell. i feel like i am screaming into the ocean every night like don't you guys see what is happening here? i mean, what -- what if he had signed those? i mean, it seems to get worse every bit of news that comes out. every piece of evidence that comes out, john. >> don, that's a really important question you raise and the way you raise it because americans are very slow to recognize these kinds of problems. i watched it, personally, during watergate. how long it took for people to understand that nixon's abuse of powers were a threat. we -- if you look through history, you hook at how slowly we were to realize the problem with world war ii. it's just something inherent about a democracy that doesn't move quickly. so, people are watching this, and they're wondering, well, maybe this is just a -- an idiosyncratic event and it'll all right itself, and go away. the posse will come in and take care of it that's not going to happen. we are the posse. we got to take care of it and so, you know, this isn't right. and trump is not hiding what he has in mind. >> john, mike pence's former chief of staff, mark short -- he was with pence on the capitol, um, during the capitol attack. he participated in the critical white house meeting -- this was on january 4th. and we are talking about a top aide here. is this a good sign that the committee will get the full picture of trump's pressure campaign, even if pence doesn't testify? >> well, certainly hope -- or help, excuse me. they'll -- short of somebody who is a straight-shooter. he was there. i'm sure he didn't want to testify. he's got a political future in the republican party. he was close to pence but he is also somebody who believes in the truth and wasn't going to try to hide it from the committee. so, yes, he will move us a little closer. he can't get inside the mind of -- of trump or of vice president pence. he can get closer to pence than he can to trump. but it's important testimony. and it shows how the committee is moving really right in on the target. >> you know what? um, andrew, as recently as this weekend, trump was still blaming mike pence and admitted in a statement that he was trying to get him to overturn the election. here, the committee is trying to -- to figure out what trump was thinking during the riot, and he is essentially laying it all out there. i mean, is there really any mystery here? >> i don't think so, don. i mean, i think, you know, he has always been the master of laying it right out in front of people. kind of, taking the sting out of the realization of whatever he's been engaged in by -- by just blatantly stating it. and so, he has done that again here. but i think it's high time that not just the committee take this seriously, but the department of justice take it seriously, as well. if you were actually committed to following the facts and the law, as the attorney general said he is, well these are facts that add to that path. right? if you are -- if you already projected that you are investigating the attempt to install fraudulent electors from the states, this is a part of that same whole effort, that same whole conspiracy, if i may. so, it is time for doj to start recognizing and qualifying these statements by former-president trump in -- you know, in the -- in the way that they are for the legal significance that they have. >> andrew, john, thank you very much. i appreciate it. the former president claiming the prosecutors investigating him are racist against white people calling out a bunch of prosecutors who happen to be black. e a lot to h. ♪ this magic moment ♪ but heinz knows there's plenty of magic in all that chaos. ♪ so different and so new ♪ ♪ was like any other... ♪ nurse mariyam sabo knows a moment this pure... ...demands a lotion this pure. new gold bond pure moisture lotion. 24-hour hydration. no parabens, dyes, or fragrances. gold bond. champion your skin. at carvana, we treat every customer like we would treat our own moms, with care and respect. to us, the little things are the big things. which is why we do everything in our power to make buying a car an unforgettable experience. happy birthday. thank you. we treat every customer like we would treat our own moms. because that's what they deserve. so, the former guy is back on the campaign trail, back to stoking racial divisions, calling prosecutors investigating him racist. >> if these radical, vicious, racist prosecutors do anything wrong or illegal, i hope we are going to have, in this country, the biggest protest we have ever had in washington, d.c., in new york, in atlanta, and elsewhere because our country and our elections are corrupt. >> joining me now, cnn senior political analyst nia malika henderson and bakari sellers, author of the new children's book "who are your people?" and um, hello to both of you. obviously, watching this, he is going to say that panel is racist. because we all black. [ laughter ] and you know what else? they're all black women. so, you know, got a twofer here. so i am going to start with you, nia. look, the investigations into former-president trump in georgia and new york are being pursued by black prosecutors -- two of them are women, right? this is not a dog whistle. this is -- i mean, it's a straight-up bullhorn, come on. and some bull you-know-what. >> and it is and listen, this is a favorite tactic of donald trump. calling people of color racist. "washington post" did an analysis of this, and it said that he is -- he's been three times more likely to call nonwhite people a racist as he's been calling white people racist. he called he was asking a racist question when she asked whether or not he was stoking white supremacy. he, of course, in charlottesville, equated the racists with the people who were protesting against racism. so it is not a surprise. it also works for his base because the base of supporters that support donald trump -- these are white-americans -- they very much think that discrimination against white people is as common as discrimination against black people and latinos and -- and other nonwhite groups. so, it's, you know, a favorite tactic of his. he is very much the patron saint of these sort of white-grievance audience that has been drawn to his presidency, first. and now, his perhaps second run for the white house. >> at another recent rally, bakari, the former guy said that covid therapeutics and vaccines were being denied to white people. he said white people in new york had to go to the back of the line for healthcare. none of this is true, and none of it is a surprise. but it is chaerl an intentional strategy, again, right? >> nia, i am going to ask you that question because we don't have bakari. >> yeah. no, i think this is a very much a favorite strategy of his. it very much works on his audience as well. to essentially say, you are the victim of this kind of rising tide of black and brown america. and if you even think back to his arguments about 2020, his crazy arguments, the sort of through line is that the election was stolen from you, trump supporters, by people in cities like atlanta and milwaukee and philadelphia. very much, targeting sort of urban democratic areas where he knows black and brown people live and vote. democratic, usually. and so, this is, you know, part of his argument, this idea of make america great again was really to turn back the clock. so, to make america white again and the way that it was in the 1950s and before when white people inhad the power. >> listen, it seemed -- >> there is bakari. >> there he is. he is back. so, bakari, it seemed -- maybe, in 20 -- you know, for the 2016 election, that he was -- he kind of stumbled into it, right? it was much more hand handed when he is like where is my african-american? now, it seems much more intentional with these things about white people, like he is targeting, um, that group. so, you know, the oppressed group. it is much more targeted than just sort of, oh my gosh, i stumbled into this and so, therefore, i am going to act on it. >> no, he -- he didn't stumble into anything. and in fact, one of the things that donald trump used brilliantly if you are talking about political strategy is the same vein that people like lee atwater tapped into with the southern strategy which is ehe learned to use racism as a political currency. let's talk about using racism as a political currency because he realized that it could move voters because when you are talking about things like the browning of america. when you talk about things like this -- this fear or this angst that some people have that all of the sudden, they are going to be replaced by black folk in the workforce and throughout culture, whatever it may be. you utilize that to drive them to the polls to get the results you want. so there are a few things. one, donald trump uses racism as political currency. two, he is scared as hell he might be indicted or have some criminal exposure. and three, you begin to see the ignorance just come forth when he begins to use these racist tropes. i mean, and -- and it's so in vogue now. after this discussion, all three of us will be deemed to be racist, right? and you should see the mentions on social media. the conversation that is going to be had on fox news about how, all the sudden, these three black people who are educated, who can identify what is going on fin this country and diagnos it based upon our country's history, are all the sudden racist. it is truly ignorant because let me just say this. one of the things i thought was a benefit of donald trump getting elected was this country was finally having a discussion act race and racism. i had no idea that the discussion was going to be rooted in so much ignorance. i guess i should have known. >> uh, well, listen. people are going to watch this and say where was the diversity on that panel? where were the white people? >> tuned into b.e.t. real quick. >> they can watch the rest of cable news all day if they want that. um, so -- haven't you watched cable news all day? that's where the white people are. yeah, i said it. so, nia, listen, between the upcoming supreme court nomination process and the former president ramping up his re-election efforts, are the dials on division over race going to be turned all the way up by those who are going to benefit most from dividing us by race? >> oh, absolutely. and listen. america is perfect for this because america, throughout its history, has sort of scapegoated black people as a fearful group. i mean, if you think also just about history, periods of social progress have been followed by periods of white backlash. and often, the periods of white backlash were much longer than the periods of social progress. so i think this is this thinking that maybe america will quickly move past this. america will sort of wise up to donald trump's shenanigans, his corruption, and his racism. but it couldn't -- it couldn't be that it doesn't. it could be america embraces donald trump, once again, should he run in 2024 and john dean sort of talked about this. this idea that americans are sort of slow to pick up on things and we sort of saw that in 2016. lots of people were saying, uh, you know, donald trump is a problem in terms of racism. and other people were saying no, it's really about the economy, and white people are feeling sort of disenfranchised from the economy. but it really was this racial grievance politics that he played quite well, that other republicans have played throughout the country, throughout america's history. and he is quite expert at it, and america is sort of ripe for this sort of racial division because of our history. >> bakari, i would give you another question but i am biased against you towards a woman. um, so, that's -- but the real truth is that your -- your audio dropped. so, you know, that's reality. >> first of all, it was a racist signal that i had in my house. i already know. >> yeah. but like donald trump, i am going to get the last word in and simply say this supreme court race is going to truly show the divisions in this country and how we have to lift up black women, who are always pushed to the side. >> thank you, sir. thank you, ma'am. i appreciate it. good to see both of you. have a good evening. >> see y'all. so ted cruz calls president biden's supreme court promise, quote, offensive and insulting. all because biden's promising to nominate the first black woman to the court. stacey abrams responds, after this. e yoin one stroke, a pivoting metal head that defines every edge, and three comb lengths for added versatility. one tool that helps you choose, change, and master your style. king c. gillette >> woman: what's my safelite story?

he is saying to 94% of americans, i don't give a damn about you. you are ineligible. and he is also saying, it's actually an insult to black women. if he came and said i am going to put the best jurist on the court and he looked at number of people, and he ended up nominating a black woman. he -- he could credibly say okay, i am nominating the person who is most qualified. he is not even pretending to say that. >> okay. well joining me now to discuss, democratic capped date for governor of georgia, stacey abrams. she is also founder of fair fight actions. good evening. good to see you. um, senator cruz isn't alone in making this argument but biden is far from the first president to make a promise like this. i mean, we should mention that your sister is among those likely being considered for the nomination. but why are republicans so bothered by biden promising to nominate a black woman to the court? he said, you know, he said 6% of the u.s. population are black women. zero percent of the court right now is black women. so, you understand my point? >> absolutely. president biden has promised to put in place an excellent jurist, one of integrity, of character, of excellent credentials. someone who is willing to sit and serve the people of the united states. he has also said that person will be a black woman, and this is nothing mutually exclusive about that decision. and for those who are keeping score at home, ronald reagan made a message that he was going to fill the court with a woman. in fact, he said it was a symbol. it was a symbolic gesture but that symbol is an important one because women are half our country, and black women are a significant part of our population. but more than anything, we need voices and we need experiences that reflect the whole of american society. and this is one more step forward for our nation. >> let's talk about something that the former president is doing. making all kinds of bogus claims. this weekend, floating the idea of pardoning january 6th rioters. calling the investigation into his business -- and i quote here -- racist. and even admitting that he tried to overturn the election, admitting it. how dangerous is it to our democracy when the former president is bragging about his coup attempt? >> what -- what he is demonstrative of is the ongoing attempt to undermine democracy in america. and this is not hyperbole. this is not conjecture. this is fact. we are watching, at the same time that he creates the air cover with his outrageous statements, we are watching state legislatures across the country put in place laws to undermine democracy. right here in georgia, we watched a county elections board kick off the last of the bipartisan representation it had, and then proceed to eliminate sunday voting. we know that in texas, because of the laws they have passed, a 95-year-old world war ii veteran is being denied the right to vote by mail because he can't produce a registration number he got back in the 1950s. we know that these are laws that are designed to keep people out of the voting booth and out of our democracy. and whether it is the former president or current senators or current state helegislators or candidates for secretary of state, we have to elect leaders up and down the ballot who are willing to defend democracy and defend our nation. that's one of the reasons i am running. it is one of the reasons that we have jon ossoff and that raphael warnock is running for reelection. we are going to do the work of defending democracy and we are going to call on every american to put aside their partisanship, and focus on their patriotism and do what must be done. >> speaking about you running, you only lost by 1.4% in 2018. the latest quinnipiac polls show that -- show you neck and neck against incumbent brian kemp and former senator david perdue. and that it is all too close to call. now, georgia is becoming one of the key battleground states over the direction of our country. what are you doing different hi this time around? >> one, we are going to do what we did right the last time and that is reach out to every georgian as early as we can. tonight is actually a fundraising dead-for us. we are closing the books on this last quarter and it is important for us to raise the resources we need in order to reach every voter. because people are in pain but they also want a promise that more opportunity is available. they want a governor who is not proud of his inaction. they want someone who wants to lead a state of opportunity. that's what i intend to do. we are going to reach out to the 1.3 million voters who joined the rolls after 2018. we know that 43% of these new voters are under the age of 30. we know that -- model 17 points higher for democrats than republicans to be the new people on the rolls. but more than anything, what we know is that they are hungry for leadership and that is the kind of leadership i want to provide. that's why i'm running because i believe that there is one georgia. we may not all agree on the same issues but i want to make certain we all have the opportunity to thrive. >> this is something that i have been wanting to ask you about for, um, some time now because you weren't at the president's big voting right speech when he came to georgia last month. both your camp and the white house said it was a scheduling conflict. you are known for your work on voting rights. and listen. i -- i don't know what your scheduling conflict was, so, you know, me -- my being ignorant about that -- it would seem that it would be something that you would want to be at, especially considering it's very important for the democrats' agenda right now, and how important voting rights is -- is to you or are to you. why is -- why wasn't it a priority for you to be there when the president came to town? >> it is always a priority for me to stand with president biden. and i think if you look at my history, i have been an advocate. i have been a cheerleader. and i will always, always stand not only with president biden but on the side of democracy. i had a personal matter that didn't allow me to attend a single speech but i believe that with everyone, and i think you know this as do your viewers, you don't judge someone by a single moment when things don't go exactly the way you want. you look at the totality of their behavior and their actions. i believe in democracy. i fight for democracy. i worked on voting rights and the president and i spoke that morning because he understood that i had a challenge. i understood that his ability to talk about democracy did not depend on my presence. and we did everything we could to work together to make sure that we move the ball forward. unfortunately, the legislation didn't move that day but neither of us have given up on it, and i believe in president biden. i believe in his commitment to voting rights. and i believe that the work we have done together, the work we continue to do, will make progress possible for all of us. and that's the most important metric. >> but having heard that, it would seem that it would be important for you to be there. so, this wasn't about being seen or tied to a president who is -- whose polling isn't so great right now? or about -- um, you know, teaching -- or sending a signal that, you know, he hasn't been strong enough on voting rights. this wasn't about that? >> i think -- i would say that anyone who has watched me, i don't send and straightforward about what i think and believe. i blelieve in president biden. he's delivered resources to georgia and leadership for the country and i believe warnock are two of the best people we could have sent to be his partners in the work. together we can work as governor, as senators and president to move the state of georgia and the country forward. i welcome president biden. i welcome the work that he's done. i welcome the work he will do. i put out statements before and after. but more than anything, my statements about voting rights have been unequivocal. unabashed. and my commitment to getting good done for georgia is why i'm running for office. why i have done the work i have been doing. and why i need people to support the future that we have ahead of us. working together for all georgiaens. >> stacy agrams. i appreciate you appearing. >> thank you so much. multiple parties excessive drinking. failure of leadership. all while the country was in covid lock down. where we're talking about the prime minister scandal taking over the uk. my family's been devastated by covid-19. and we're not alone. we've all had to find new ways to keep going. and cue has made that easier. with cue, you get lab-quality covid-19 test results in just 20 minutes. speed and accuracy. it's just for the nba; it's for you too. cue health. the official covid-19 home test of the nba. go cue. go you. we gotta tell people that liberty mutual customizes car insurance so you only pay for what you need, and we gotta do it fast.
