Thats nbcs Julia Ainsley with the latest on the situation at the southern border tonight. Well, it is the top of the hour and its very good to be with you tonight. We are waiting to learn the next steps for the House Select Committee thats investigating January 6th. Lawmakers huddled Behind Closed Doors last night, after some emotional testimony this week. Simone biles is out for at least two of the four individual competitions in the olympic finals, after sparking pa big conversation about Mental Health. Hers is just one big story this week about the ways we show up for Each Other. To give a teammate a break, to defend democracy, to stop a pandemic, or anything else that matters to us. From nbc News World Headquarters in New York, im Joshua Johnson. Welcome to the week. The Working Weekend on Capitol Hill Tonight and the senate is still holding a rare saturday session. We are waiting for the final text of the bipartisan infrastructure bill, apparently it could come at any time. Meanwhile, last night, president biden signed a 2. 1 billion Spending Package that congress passed this week. As you can see, part of it will cover costs that the u. S. Capitol police, the national guard, and other Law Enforcement partners incurred during the deadly insurrection. The House Select Committee that was formed to investigate the attack convened for the first time on tuesday. Its first hearing featured emotional testimony from four officers who defended the capitol on January 6th. They described what it was like being overwhelmed by rioters. I could feel myself losing Oxygen And Recall thinking to myself, this is how im going to die, defending this entrance. I was grabbed, beaten, tased, all while being called a traitor to my country. I was at risk of being stripped of and being killed with my own firearm, as i heard chants of kill him with his own gun. I can still hear those words in my head today. But i ended up on my hands and knees and blind. The medical mask i was wearing at the time to protect myself from the coronavirus was pulled up over my eyes so i couldnt see. I braced myself against the impact of their blows and feared the worst. Reporter but the committee might have some trouble maintaining its momentum. The house is about to leave for a sevenweek august recess. And, no, august is not seven weeks long, but congress. Now, to be fair, the committees chairman, bennie thompson, has not ruled out holding hearings during the recess. Investigators are still in the earliest stages of crafting their road map. That includes deciding which, if any former White House officials to pursue for testimony. Not to mention the growing number of congressional republicans who have admitted having some contact with Donald Trump during or before the insurrection. Subpoenaing them could lead to an unprecedented legal and political showdown. Plenty for us to discuss with our Saturday Night panel. Pete dominick is a Standup Comedian and host of the podcast Stand Up with pete dominick. Hayes brown is a columnist for msnbc daily. And Ana Marie Cox is a political Columnist And Host of the podcast with friends like these. Glad to have these friends with us. After the testimony we heard on tuesday, i did not expect to watch all three and a half hours of that on my day off. Once i turned it on, i was riveted. I could not turn it off, because they gave four different kinds of testimony with four very different kinds of Interlocking Perspectives about what happened and what needs to happen now. Hayes, what is your sense of what happens now, after their testimonies . So, first of all, i think it was a brilliant choice to start off with these four Police Officers as a Starting Point for the hearing. It gives sort of a grounding of what actually happened on the day of January 6th in a way that has come under attack from republicans and from supporters, who say that, you know, things werent all that bad. Theres been a very significant downplaying of the events that happened that day over the last few weeks and months. So to start with these four officers who were there, were under attack, were helping defend the members of congress, really smart to start off with their testimony, moving forward, i think that its really important that we look at what the officers said they want to happen moving forward. One of them compared the situation to the situation where the Department Of Justice goes after the people who actually invaded the capitol, why are not looking for the people that hired the, quote, Hit Man, who showed up that day. And some of them really wanted congress to dive into the truth. So i think that is going to be important that we see a lot of members on this committee who are ready and willing to start issuing subpoenas, to start calling up members of trumps inner circle, who were there with him that day, leading up and building this case. Trying to work towards potentially, trying to get testimony of what happened that day from Donald Trump himself. So i think we should build up this case, see who we call first as they move forward. Hayes, you were referring to the testimony of Officer Harry Dunn, who is a u. S. Capitol police officer. Here is that remark he made about finding who hired the Hit Man. Watch. A Hit Man is hired and he kills somebody. The Hit Man goes to jail. But not only does the Hit Man go to jail, but the person who hired them does. There was an attack carried out on January 6th and a Hit Man sent them. I want you to get to the bottom of that. Ana marie cox, what is your sense of how well we are going to get to the bottom of that . I mean, there hasnt been a ton of action since January 6th on actually investigating all of this. This is the first hearing of this committee after the effort to create not a bipartisan committee, but a nonpartisan committee failed. I dont have a lot of hope, actually. I think that The Powers That Be are i mean, maybe this is time for democrats to start talking about the deep state. I am looking at the institutions that are protecting the people that want to protect Donald Trump, if that makes any sense. I know one of the things that happened this week is theyve been having trouble getting Police Unions to say anything in defense of the police that were hurt protecting the capitol. And i think that its just an interesting example of how, you know, we think that power in this Country Sort of exists to protect maybe the specific Interest Group that its named after. Like Police Unions protect police. Police unions exist to protect the existing power structure. They exist to protect people, like Donald Trump, and others that came before him, that unfortunately came after him. I think that theres this in a way, the problems are a lot deeper than just putting these Capitol Hill policemen on the stand. And fortunately, i think theyve caught our attention. I think theres some momentum. Im sorry, go ahead. No, its just, power runs deep. Yeah. Sorry, i didnt mean to interrupt you. But i do take your point in terms of how we sort of caught the nations attention, and some of the ways in which they caught our attention, at least what stood out to me in part in the hearing is that there was a little bit of Gallows Humor that came out from the officers, just kind of in response to the way that the history of January 6th is attempting to be rewritten by some in congress. Listen. What do you think about our colleagues who think we should call them tourists . If thats what american tourists are like, i can see why foreign countries dont like american tourists. You hear former President Trump say, quote, it was a loving crowd. There was a lot of love in the crowd. How does that make you feel . Im still recovering from those hugs and kisses that day, that he claimed that so many rioters, terrorists, were assaulting us that day. If that was hugs and kisses, then we should all go to his house and do the same thing to him. Now, i dont call that out to try to call out how funny these officers are, but Comedy And Humor has a way of piercing the truth of a situation, pete. And i think that might be one of the superpowers that these officers brought to that hearing, is just an ability to cut through all the politics and just get down to the truth. Yeah, these guys were awesome choices for so many different reasons, but they brought so many different elements of their personality. Their rage, their vulnerability, and yeah, their humor. But i think what were seeing here right now, this is super important, that were seeing the right in america trying to rewrite the distant pass, the origin of the country, slavery, the civil war, the civil Rights Movement and so on. Were seeing them try to rewrite that, right . Our distant history. We have to have this patriotic history, as were saying. But were all seeing them trying to rewrite something that we all watched on tv four weeks ago. This guy, andrew clyde, this congressman, has no right to be in any room with someone like Jamie Raskin who ate him alive the other day. Hes the guy who sits there and calls them tourists. Theres a picture of andrew clyde, the congressman, screaming in fear, running in terror like this, ahhh because hes terrified that theyre going to break into the house chamber. Thats the guy who said these were tourists. So the Big Lie about the president ial Election Wasnt just that it was stolen, its about the election itself. Its about this country itself. We cant let them rewrite the distant past, much less what happened three weeks ago, and just feed their followers more conspiracy theories. Its not enough to believe the Big Lie. You have to believe the moon is made of cheese and that democrats drink babies blood. We have to stop that in its tracks and combat it with everything that we have. I was wondering about what pete was bringing up particularly with congressman clyde, and some of the other members, members of the freedom caucus, who were calling spies. Lauren bobart said they are a cancer to our party. I think the Midterm Elections will sort of tell the tale in terms of whether voters push back against these lawmakers that you need to go. But what is your sense of the Balance Of Power in terms of republicans who are still kind of clinging on to that Fabulousist View of what happened on January 6th . Well, the really interesting thing about the Republican Party is how completely dominated they are by their fear of the primary election process. So as we start to get into the primary season for the midterms, i think were going to see a real division between who actually has challengers run against them from the center. Like, are there going to be actually any of these trump supporters who have more moderate republicans try to run against them in their district. I think that if we start to see that pop up, if they seem to be polling well, i think were going to see some shifts in the party overall. But as things stand right now. People keep saying, this is the party of trump. This is still trump party. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said that just the other day. But, trumps power is could be waning a little. We had a special election in texas this week. Where trumps Lastminute Backing did not put his preferred candidate over the edge. So were really going to have to see over the next few months how much juice does the former president still have, now that hes off Twitter And Facebook. Now that will republicans, once they start to feel a little untethered from him, will they believe that if trump himself doesnt have power, that his base of supporters are not worth chasing after anymore. Will they still turn up to the polls if hes not there to guide them. I think theres a lot of unanswered questions that we all should be asking over the next few months. And just not really making any real firm assumptions at this point about how strong or weak the trump Republican Party is going to be. When we actually get people to the polls in november. And ana marie, very briefly, before we pause in terms of those unanswered questions, subpoenas to appear before that committee, i tend to think that closeddoor testimony might be more productive than holding a lot of live testimony, especially if its with former Trump Administration officials, who might be looking to just work the camera. But briefly before we have to pause, what do you think . You said it. I mean, theyre looking to put on a show. Because the bigger show you can put on, the more you can make people forget what happened before. Theyre looking to do the sequel to January 6th, which will take place inside the chamber, but do just as much damage to democracy. We are spending our Saturday Night with pete dominick, hayes brown, and Ana Marie Cox. Yall stick around. Much more to talk about. Coming up, Simone Biles is at the top of her game. What might other athletes learn from her taking a Step Back . Plus, the financial fallout from the release of Black Widow on streaming and in theaters. But first, Richard Lui is here with the headlines. Hey, richard. Hey, josh, a very good saturday to you. Some of the stories were watching. A series of severe mud slides caused colorados main highway to shut down for the weekend. Dozens of drivers were trapped in their cars overnight in tunnels on colorados main East West Interest rate.

It has been an emotional week for Team Usa gymnastics. Late yesterday, the group announced that Simone Biles will not compete in two of her four individual competitions. The vault and the uneven bars. The 24yearold Gymnast was a heavy favorite for the vault going into the games, the final going into the games, but she has struggled during her time in tokyo. Miss biles explained on instagram that she has been dealing with something called the twisties. Its a kind of mental block, where gymnasts lose track of their positioning midair. Simone Biles Decision to withdraw has put the Longtaboo Issue of mental Health Front and center at this years olympics. Our panel is back with us. And ana, let me start with you on this one. I cant blame Simone Biles for pulling out. The way i think of it is, imagine just going on a really rough Roller Coaster, lots of flips and dives and twists and turns and the minute you get off the Roller Coaster, someone says, now, do a backflip. If that scares you, now, imagine doing three and a half Triple Backflips through the air, standing still, over and over. That ability to know where your body is in space, I Cant even fathom that. I cant even wrap my brain around something like that. Which is why im struggling to wrap my brain around some of the criticism of Simone Biles for dropping out. I dont get it, either. Shes actually known for that ability to see herself in the air, to really know where she is. Thats why she can pull off those tricks that some people say are too dangerous to do in competition. Because she has that enormous sense of self. I would say she still has an enormous sense of self. And when you said Roller Coaster, i thought you were going to talk about the emotional Roller Coaster that shes been on, as the only known survivor of the Nasr Scandal still competing. And she also is a black woman in america and a black woman in a really white olympics. So shes got a lot on her plate. So i think that we need to remember that also, shes a really special, special gymnast. And shes actually changed the sport of gymnastics. Shes changed the culture of gymnastics. Not just in the level of difficulty she performs at, but the spirit that she brings to the sport. She has coaches that dont belittle her if she makes a mistake. She eats, i understand. She actually talks about how she enjoys food. Her Training Regimen is much less intense than it has been for gymnasts of generations past. So something i like to point out is shes been training to have the strength to step away from the olympics as much as shes been training to get into the olympics. Shes really learned to value herself and i think thats a really great lesson for all of us. Hayes brown, with regards to the emotional Rollercoaster Ana mentioned, in terms of being a black woman, Candace Buckner in the Washington Post wrote this. Quote, a different kind of pressure follows black women who achieve in traditionally white spaces. If theyve had a realist for a mother, since childhood, theyve heard the refrain, theyve got to work twice as hard to get half as much. And if they spent two seconds in america, then they know that mama was right, unquote. Ive got to say, this factored in for me as well when i was just looking at what she was dealing with. But not just the difficulty, the poise with which she dealt with it, and the pressure i presume she feels to remain poised as she does it. Because she knows little black girls are looking to her and seeing themselves reflected back. Absolutely. And im glad that she made the decision that she did so she can keep, hopefully, competing and keep doing gymnastics at the level that shes doing. And not risking her literal neck trying to pull off some of the moves she does when she knows she doesnt have, when she knows its just not going to be there. Im really proud of her for being able to take a Step Back and say, look, i know this is not going to be okay if i try this right now. And i need you to believe me. And thankfully, like, shes pointed out, people around her believed her. And i think thats also important to see. That people will see that, no, if you come and you say, im not okay right now, that people will say, okay, i understand, lets set you back and make sure that you are all right. And those kinds are the people you have to have around you. The fact that she has pulled out from the uneven bars and the vault makes total sense to me, given the conditions that shes having right now. Vault, she had that near crash when she was in the finals before she withdrew, so not surprised she pulled out there. Uneven bars has always been her weakest even on the four, and so that still gives her the Floor Routine and the balance beams. Im sure you heard about snls Michael Che who came under fire for some jokes that he posted on instagram, which comedians come up with jokes, they come up with jokes on every aspect of life. There are a few sacred cows in the world of comedy, but he got some flack for the things he posted about Simone Biles ahead of a Standup Show hes doing in New York this weekend. I dont know how you see this. I attend to as a first Amendment Purist believe that you can say anything that you will own the consequences for. If you will take responsibility for what you say, first line of the Nbc News standards, we are responsible for everything we report, on every medium, including social media. Were responsible. So i can report anything i will own. And if hes willing to own the criticism, okay. Thats on you. Youre free to say it. But how do you see it, pete . Well, increasingly, comedians are more worried about their words, simply if they work for companies. Of course, che is at start Saturday Night live and can be there. But i put comedians, my peers, in a different category. They are comedians and some of them will go for the most shocking thing they can and hope to profit from it. Thats why, earlier, joshua, you said, im not sure who the critics are of Simone Biles or why theyre doing this, and ana, you were both like, why would they do it . You know why theyre doing it. We all know why theyre doing it. And people have been clamoring to hear the Point Of View of another straight white guy this week from me. Thats why youre here as a former noncompetitive Break Dancer on Simone Biles, i mean, i dont care about its not my business, the twisties. Its interesting to hear what that is. She is the most amazing gymnast ever. Unless you can fly, then dont criticize her, i would say. But number two, her Mental Health this is such an important issue, this is such good news. And i think the critics are far fewer and they the same type of guy, the same type of guy who is criticizing Adam Kinzinger for being emotional and having emotions. Theyre not that many. Most people are supportive of what theyre doing. And i think this is really important to mention that theres been a real Ground Swell of support for what she is doing. And finally, you know, Sally Jenkins wrote in the Washington Post, its a perilous endeavor to try to interpret what her prerogative is. Ill give it a shot. She is the only member of the team who is part of nasrs abuse. Shes got to be conflicted just working with Usa Gymnastics, while theyre still in court trying to evade responsibility. And frankly, this is probably perilous and unfair, but, you know, shes a black american. Theres a lot of confusion about competing under that flag right now while theyre trying to take black folks vote away. And im the white guy on the panel, so ill shut up now. I hear you. Ana, i wonder if you think the changes in our conversation on Mental Health will stick or does this kind of go away when the torch goes out in a few weeks . Are we going to stick the landing on this one . Well played. Well done. Shes really inspired me. I cant say i know what its like to compete in front of millions of people and to compete at that level, but i know what its like to feel like if i do the wrong thing, ill disappoint everyone that loves me. And i think what simone has shown all of us, is that we come before other peoples expectations. And im going to take that to heart. Yeah, i appreciate you sharing that. I think we could all share a few beers at the bar and our stories about living up to other peoples expectations. Hey, it takes a while to learn that the people who love you, their love is not conditioned on what you do, its only about who you are and that you are. That is where the love comes from. And if Simone Biles never does another flip through the air, girl, we aint gonna love you any less. Were not going to stand you any less if you never flip through the air again. We have a little bit more to talk about, so you three please stick around. Up next, the Black Widow has a new adversary at the Walt Disney Company. Well explain, when we come back company. Well explain, when we come back seeing blood when you brush or floss can be a sign of early gum damage.

She claims that they breached her contract. Miss Johanssons Salary was apparently based largely on the Movies Box Office performance at conventional movie theaters. Disney responded in a statement describing the lawsuit as having, quote, no merit whatsoever. It also accused miss johansson showing callous disregard for the effects of the covid19 crisis. And in a rather shocking move, it put a number to how much it apparently agreed to pay her for Black Widow. Her push seems to be inspiring other performers who feel slighted by the shift to streaming. According to variety, several disney actors are considering legal actions of their own. Our panel is back with us to discuss. Ana marie cox, hayes cox, and pete dominick. Pete, let me start with you. Im not sure exactly how i feel about this. On one hand, covid, obviously, has changed the way we go to The Movies. We take that as read. Her lawsuit notes that the annual bonuses for Disneys Chairman and its ceo are tied to the performance of disney plus, the streaming service. So theres that economic aspect. Part of me also thinks that maybe this is something that her representatives fell short on, because they didnt negotiate it into her contract and they should have. But all of those things are kind of on my mind. How do you see this . Again, as a man here, i think its really important to hear my perspective. No, actually, why dont we do this . Women in times up called Johanssons Representation of this a gendered attack. It contributes to a environment in which women and girls are perceived as less able than men to protect their own interests without Facing Ad Hominem criticism. This is a war of words between the disney camp and Scarlett Johanssons camp. As to what the agreement was, which is why youre saying its torn, i get it too. My daughter is a huge fan of all of these films and hotly anticipated this one. We watched it together and pay, i think, 30 to watch it at home. And loved it and thought it was really empowering for women and girls and what, you know, a lot of great characters in this. But to see then the real Actress Fight for what she believes that shes due and all of these other Womens Advocacy groups supporting her, i think its a very interesting time. But i would yield the remainder of my time to Ana Marie Cox, and whatever question you have for her, sir. Ana, youre up. What do you make of this . Go, scarlett. Go, Black Widow. I agree, it was a very gendered attack on her. And i have to say that this is a case of a woman looking to see who owns her story, who owns her labor. Women put a lot of labor into the world thats never compensated. I think this is just another example. Its not housework, like a lot of the time it is. But its something thats really huge. I also want to say about the movie. It was amazing. No spoilers, please. I havent seen it yet. No spoiler. No spoilers. Thank you. Go ahead. No, no. Nope its amazing the shift in perspective that you have when every single person fighting on the screen is a woman. Like, the bad guys are women, The Good Guys are women. There is not a man in the room in the climax of the movie. And it just feels different. I cant quite explain it. I will say, i went to see this in a theater. I was sitting next to two guys with strong texas accents and wearing Gimmick Hats and they were talking about how much they liked Donald Trump before the movie started. I almost wanted to poke them. After it was over, one of them went, that was pretty cool to see did they say a female . They said, its pretty cool how there are women heroes now. Hmm. Now . I know. They may be out of touch for a little while. But its really interesting and its interesting that you see the whole screen dominated by women. That sounds kind of like the experience i had watching black panther. Where you had a black hero and a black Villain And Understanding both characters, and that experience of being in the theater, full of black people, watching black people run the world was like, wakanda forever. Thats how i felt about watching all of the rest of The Movies before that. Yeah, im sure. Now we can relate thats how you felt watching the news, maybe, too. But hayes, this is part of this covid19 shift. This is a shift in the way we watch movies. Paying 30 Bucks to watch movie at home. I remember when people were like, i hate going to the theater. Now we kind of can because we have to. We also learned this week that broadway theaters, when they begin to get back in production, theyre going to require people to be vaccinated and wear masks. Young children who are too young to be vaccinated will have to wear masks. Lollapalooza in chicago said yesterday, they are requiring masks in indoor spaces for this weekends show. So this sounds like at least a piece of this, the Covid Aspect of this, is just something that were going to have to figure out going forward, especially in the ways that we entertain ourselves. Yeah, absolutely. I think that theres no putting the streaming theres no Plugging Up no putting the finger in the streaming. Theres no stopping that more people want to watch things at home now. And i feel for the movie theater industry. I feel for the fact that they had no idea that this shift was going to come so quickly, pushed forward like it has been by covid. And i do think that this lawsuit from Scarlett Johansson is going to be interesting. Not necessarily for the outcome for her. I kind of have a hard time seeing it being very successful. Its going to get a lot of attention, draw a lot of attention to how contracts are written moving forward. Youre going to see a lot more stars making sure that they do have language in there that if is this movie going to be exclusively in theaters, do i get to have the streaming if it will be released via streaming . I think this is a Brandnew World for a lot of entertainers and their lawyers and their agents, et cetera, to try to figure out, well, what does it mean then if its not going to be just out in theaters . How do we get paid then if it is going to be put out on what is no longer the equivalent of directtovideo. All of us here, were younger. That was a slap in the face, to have your movie go from being a theatrical lease to, oh, you might see it on blockbuster. Right to vhs. I think this is going to be a really interesting time for looking forward. I dont know that this lawsuit itself is going to work, but its going to be revolutionary moving forward. Pete dominick, hayes brown, Ana Marie Cox, thank you all very, very much. Coming up, the nationwide Eviction Moratorium is set to expire tonight.

That prompted Congresswoman Cory Busch of missouri to take action. Busch was once homeless herself. She spent the night on the steps of the capitol. The congresswoman from st. Louis says she plans to do the same thing tonight. Shes calling on her colleagues to return to d. C. And pass an extension. That could prevent millions of americans from losing their homes. In the meantime, what should you do if you are served an Eviction Notice . Nbcs Moira Barrett has more. Reporter 3. 6 million americans say they will likely have to leave their homes in the next two months due to eviction. We call eviction the Scarlett Scarlet e, because when a family faces an eviction, people who face an eviction are then often barred from getting access to housing, to jobs, or to loans. As they, you know, recover from the experience of an eviction. Reporter but if you do find yourself with an Eviction Notice on your door, no matter where you are, experts all agree the number one thing you can do is find an attorney. The more you can get that advice, i think the better. Because these processes can move quickly. Theres a lot of complicated paperwork. If youre doing it for the first time, its likely you can make a mistake. Talk to that attorney and get that advice. Reporter you can go to your local federal legal services office. Theyre usually free or they may refer to you to a nonprofit legal adviser for eviction cases. When you go, its important to bring the receipts. Documenting everything you can. If you can take photos of any interactions you have with your landlord. Take photos of your possessions or anything that could be used in Court Proceedings to help defend your case. Even if you havent yet received an Eviction Notice, experts urge that if youre struggling to pay rent, you should access the billions of dollars of Rental Assistance made available by the federal government. Okay, youre good to go. There is an historic amount of Rental Assistance available. The biden administration has allocated over 46 Billion to renters in the u. S. But what weve seen is that that rental Assistance Money is not reaching people in time. So what that means is that tenants who are waiting in line for their Rental Assistance checks to clear may face eviction in the weeks ahead. Reporter theres plenty of that assistance to go around. But not all of it is being used. Nbc news contacted all 50 states and the District Of Columbia about their Emergency Rental Assistance programs. Of the 41 that responded, 26 have distributed less than 10 of their first allocations. I have plenty of money to give. What i need is applications, and i need time. And can people still access their Rental Assistance, even after they are potentially at risk of eviction or when they get that Eviction Notice . Absolutely. The timeline can be long, but the sooner you get in the line to receive that funding, the more likely you are to receive it if that Eviction Trial or that hearing takes place. After youve spoken to an attorney and after youve applied for Rental Assistance, with the guidance of your attorney potentially to reach out to your landlord and let them know that youre waiting on that Rental Assistance. In a lot of cases, the Rental Assistance thats available cannot only pay all of the back pay, but some of the rent into the future. Reporter the stakes are high as this Eviction Moratorium comes to a close. The same communities that have been affected by layoffs, that have been affected by covid19, they may be at risk of both losing their homes and also contracting, you know, covid19 or the Delta Variant at this critical time. Reporter but the impacts of an eviction can last long after a family is out the door. The consequences of an Eviction Wave will be multigenerational. Its a traumatic adverse Childhood Experience for kids who have to go through that, as well. But we also know that moms who experience an eviction suffer from depression up to two years after that experience. Reporter that multigenerational impact, causing both emotional and financial setbacks. Advocates hoping this Rental Assistance can change that. Eviction is often talked about as being the result of poverty and really in the united states, its often the cause of poverty. And so its a very frightening moment for that reason, and its why its so important State And County governments really move quickly to get that Rental Assistance dollars out the door. Because those federal funds can resolve those debts and they can prevent evictions from taking place. That was Nbcs Moira Barrett reporting.

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Us four officers, we would do January 6 all over again. We wouldnt stay home because we knew it was going to happen. We would show up. Thats courageous. Thats heroic. That was just one poignant moment from this weeks testimony on Capitol Hill about the insurrection on January 6. U. S. Corporate police Officer Harry Dunn touched on something big there. Even knowing now what he did not know then, he says he would have still shown up for work. Thats been a big theme in this weeks top stories. Showing up. Not easy to do your duty when the whole world is watching. But those officers showed us what it looks like. Danger has a way of focusing your mind on doing the right thing. That was apparently a factor in simone Biles Decision to withdraw from many of her olympic events. Late yesterday, Usa Gymnastics announced she would withdraw from the finals for the vault and uneven bars. She had already pulled out of Team Competition after experiencing a kind of Mind Body Disorientation known as the twisties. That opened the door for her teammates to show up in her place and for her to cheer them on as loudly as ever. The u. S. Team took silver. Russia took the gold.

Thats not easy to do. Even if you know what youre doing. Which gets me to something more personal. An announcement about the future of this program. Maybe you already heard. This fall, i will be launching a new show on our free streaming channel Nbc News now. Instead of Working Weekends, i will see you on weeknights. Nbcs Tom Llamas and Hallie Jackson are also building new programs on Nbc News now. I personally cannot wait to watch them. To say im honored and humbled is an understatement. Im a bit of a nervous wreck too, or at least i was since the announcement went out on tuesday. Ive had a few days to work through the anxiety. What helped calm me down . Simply put, the new program will amplify the kind of journalism youve come to expect here, connecting people, demystifying the news, Making Room for everyone, staying highly interactive, and definitely enjoying ourselves along the way. You know, the last few years have revolutionized the ways we show up for one another. Personally i think were up to the test. But whether its a golden opportunity like this one or the golden badges on officers doing their duty, the tasks before us can seem absolutely enormous. And when we dont know exactly what to do, our values can give us courage to make good choices. That is how we honor those golden badges. And its how you earn gold medals. It is exactly the moment when showing up is the hardest that it means the most. In some ways its the big challenge of today, isnt it . What are we going to do for Each Other when the stakes are high . How are we going to wipe out the pandemic if only some of us are showing up to do our part . What becomes of this country if we cannot trust all of our fellow citizens to show up when our democracy is threatened . Thats the challenge. And the opportunity. Now we get to reimagine the ways in which we connect with Each Other. And in some cases, consider if disconnection is best. We would like to get that conversation going. But we would love to hear from you first. So tell us. How are people around you showing up for the things that matter to you . Are you effectively coming together or do your efforts keep falling apart . Email us, theweek msnbc. Com, we are also at Instagram Theweek Underscore msnbc. Well talk tomorrow to priya parker.
