persons conspire to overthrow, put down or destroy by force the government, or by force to prevent, hinder or delay the execution of any law, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property." now in plain english, this is the first time our government has called some of the events that happened on january 6 a conspiracy to use force to prevent the presidential transition. it's important to understand who we're dealing with here. now unlike the randomly thuggish proud boys, the oath keepers are an organization largely of current and former military, law enforcement, and first responders. they're trained by our own tax dollars to know how to use those weapons. in their statement announcing the indictment, the doj says rhodes and defendants conspired to transport ammunition into washington, d.c., organizing trainings to teach and learn paramilitary combat tactics and bringing in and contributing paramilitary group. they're also accused of breaching and attempting to take control of the capitol grounds and building, using against law enforcement officers and continuing to plot after january 6 to oppose by force the lawful transfer of power. the indictment also provides a timeline of the encrypted group jet messages that rhodes sent encouraging his co-conspirators. two days after the election, november 5th, rhodes urged his followers to accept the election results and said, quote, we aren't getting through this without a civil war, unquote. on november 7th, he said we must now do what the people of serbia did when milosevic stole the election. refuse to accept it and march en masse on the nation's capitol. and november 9th he held a call outlining a plan to stop the lawful transfer of power. the organizing and the paramilitary training continued over the next months with rhodes advocating for the use of force on the oath keepers' website. on christmas day, six days after trump's wild tweet, rhodes wrote i think congress will screw president trump over. the only chance we have is if we scare the s out of them and convince them it will be torches and pitchforks time if they don't do the right thing. but i don't think they'll listen. the planning continued, and by january 5th, they were in the d.c. area, stocked with weapons. they split into stacks, one on each side of the capitol. around 2:00 p.m., rhodes entered the restricted capitol grounds. at 2:25 he instructed his co-conspirators, come to south side of capitol. and as the doj notes, at approximately 2:30 p.m., oath keepers and affiliates, many wearing paramilitary clothing marched in a stack formation up the east steps of the capitol, joined a mob and made their way into the capitol. and we all know what happened next. an insurrection ensued. rhodes was arrested today and is currently an inmate in collin county, texas. the oath keepers are one of two major violent groups accused of orchestrating the insurrection, along with the proud boys, you know, the group trump told to stand back and stand by during the presidential debates. the january 6 select committee is investigating both of these groups. but rhodes hasn't decided yet whether he will testify. this comes as the committee is continuing to investigate the online rhetoric that led to the insurrection. today they subpoenaed four major social media company, alphabet, aa google, meta, aka facebook, reddit, and twitter. committee chair bennie thompson said in a press release two key questions for the select committee are how the spread of misinformation and violent extremism contributed to the violent attack on our democracy, and what steps, if any, social media companies took to prevent their platforms from being breeding grounds for radicalizing people to violence. joining me now joyce vance, and intelligence analyst macolm nance. his new book is due out in july. joyce, i'm going start with you. here is the indictment. i've been reading through it with great interest. it reads sort of like a tom clancy novel. these people took real detailed planning to try to overturn the election that they said could not be accepted. please explain what is the significance of the department of justice going with a seditious conspiracy charge. >> selecting this charge is really doj framing the issues around january 6. and joy, as you noted, this indictment is careful to set forth that they're looking not just at that day itself, but at what preceded it and what followed it. so they're looking at a conspiracy and ongoing course of conduct. and unlike prior indictments, this is not an indictment that alleges obstruction of congress. this is not an indictment that talks about being on the capitol grounds without permission. this sets forth the seditious conspiracy, an effort to interfere with the transfer of power. and it brings new gravitas to the way that doj is viewing these events, confirming that they're going after the heart of a conspiracy to take down democracy. >> yeah, it's a relief to see the doj acting. and they're acting in a pretty big way. you know, malcolm nance, what stood out the me in reading through this indictment is the way the leader of the proud boys was referencing milosevic, referencing what serbians did to try to overhim taking power, stealing the elections. and also, if you look at what they had, the weaponry and tactics that were discussed on these group chats, they brought shotguns and scopes, magazines, sight, optics, ar platforms, rifles, firearms, night vision devices, a boat that could handle a potomac crossing. they said we could have our team with the heavy weapons standing by, quickly load them and ferry them across the river. this was not a casual conspiracy. it sounded like an active military plan. >> it was an active military plan. and believe me, i've been monitoring the internal communications of these groups since this time last year, well before the insurrection. and, you know, when i wrote my last book on this, one of the things that i found very, very early on, what it wasn't just the oath keepers that were planning to be seditious. you're going to find out in subsequent indictments i'm certain, the proud boys, the oath keepers and the three percent militias had multiple meetings about this. they started getting people ready in late october, early november, sending them to training schools, having them have 1500 -- 150 rounds of combat load ammunition on their weapons, getting their body armor together. what you saw on january 6 was the command cell of the oath keepers. there were many, many, many hundreds more oath keepers there. it's a big organization. it's just that this was stewart roads' teams that he was bringing into the building. if you recall that very night, we were on this very program, i said it's quite possible that these people may have had capture and kill teams that were organized to go in there, murder cells is another way that we put them, and that they would be very well-organized. this entire sedition was the insurrection in itself was well-organized. because not only did they plan it, they also sent orders out to everyone. and thousands of people came dressed like them. >> you know, and the million dollar question, of course, is what the sitting president at the time knew or understood about it. just to give our audience a little context, the last time we had a federal sedition prosecution was 26 years ago when omar abdel rahman, also known as the blind sheikh and nine others were convicted of plotting to blow up the united nations, the fbi building, bridges and tunnels between new jersey and new york. before that, more than a dozen puerto rican nationalists were convicted in the early 1980s of sedition in their role of armed forces of liberation, a group claimed bombings across the united states. this is a very, very serious charge. and joyce, the question then becomes what trump knew. now we know that trump is trying to say that he cannot be held responsible for anything that happened that day. but judge mehta who is seeing that case in court said the following. whether trump should be immune from civil lawsuits, not talking criminal right now. what do i do about the fact that the president didn't denounce the conduct immediately? isn't that from a plausibility standpoint that the president probably agreed with the people inside the capitol that day? you have an almost two-hour window where the president does not say stop, get out of the capitol. that's not what i want you to do. but beyond that, you also have tweet after tweet after tweet from donald trump going back to december saying be at the capitol. it will be wild. you have his associates hiring members of the oath keepers as security, hiring proud boys as security, associating themselves with him. is it possible from your point of view, joyce, for the doj to look at this conspiracy without looking at donald trump? >> well, this is exactly the sort of inquiry that prosecutors will have to engage in, joy. i think you're right at the decision point that they'll ultimately have to look at to prove that someone participated in a conspiracy, you have to prove that they entered into an agreement with people to achieve an illegal goal. here that goal is to interfere with the transfer of power. so it's not enough to watch approvingly from the sidelines. you actually have to have engaged with them in this enterprise. and that's the question that's always swirled around january 6. it's whether or not there was involvement by trump or anyone around him. that is still the unanswered question here. we just don't know enough to answer it. many were previously engaged in guarding roger stone. whether there is a link-up, i'm afraid we're going to have to wait a little longer to find out whether prosecutors have the evidence to go that far. >> you think about the fact that we still don't know who planted pipe bombs, you know, at the dnc and the rnc. the dnc when the current vice president of the united states kamala harris was inside during one of those planted pipe bombs. there is so much we need to know. we know, malcolm, donald trump tweeted these three these things. january 6, it will be wild. january 6 in d.c. at least he knew there was going to be a rally there. you can say he just knew that. but why did he say it's going to be wild? why is bannon saying all hell is going to break lose? and then there is this january 5th tweet where he is see tee ing up that antifa is violent. if you're looking at this, let's put it in the al qaeda perspective. if you have someone like osama bin laden, also a sort of itinerant real estate guy who is saying we're at war with the united states. he himself doesn't get on one of the planes. but all of the people who listen to him, who he is egging on get on those planes and they commit the terrorist acts on 9/11, is it possible to look at just the people who were in the planes flying them and doing the terrorism without looking at bin laden? >> no. and the people who were actually down there smashing the windows, breaking their way in, these are the level zero heroes as they like to portray themselves. let me put it in this perspective and why this sedition charge is so significant. you have tier 4 people, right? that's the average schmoe who came to that thing. 2,000 penetrate the building. the next level up is this tier 3, which is the stewart rhodes command and control people on the grounds of the capitol who helped organize the military aspects of it manned made that command and control. then there is the level that stewart rhodes will lead up to and the proud boys will lead up to. and that's what i call treason command, which was operating out of the willard hotel, which was the people who were the political leaders, the steve bannons, everyone in there who seemed to know what the plan was and had established a command organization in that hotel that was directly linked to the white house. and then you have the tier 1, you know, conspirators, you know, the mark meadows. all you have to do is watch rachel maddow and you can start seeing. these people were organizing entire bodies of states, the house of representatives, and others to layer down all of the effects that were happening that day to consider themselves an entire coup d'etat. and you had four tiers. this is way beyond sedition. >> yeah. >> this is literally a plan to overthrow the government. >> and the final question to you, then, joyce, if donald trump sought to benefit from an attempt to overthrow the government, an attempt to intimidate congress and to not certifying the election, and then false slates of electors being served up on a silver platter that mike pence was supposed to then take, he is seeking to benefit from a violent overthrow of the government with a plan to substitute other electors. i find it very hard to believe that he can be completely ignorant of that and still be enthusiastic, at least sitting in the white house watching it happen and not stop it. >> you know, judges love to tell juries when they go back to deliberate after all the evidence is in at trial, you don't have to check your common sense at the door. you can use your common sense. >> right. >> in evaluating the evidence. and that's true here. we all know what we saw. we draw logical conclusions. now it's up to prosecutors to do the heavy lifting of making sure that they have sufficient admissible evidence so that they can prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt before they bring any charges. that's why we see this painstakingly slow and frustrating methodical effort to put together the evidence. sometimes as a prosecutor you're able to go all the way to the top. you have enough admissible evidence to bring charges. and other times you don't. and one possibility here, joy, the possibility that it's not one linear conspiracy that starts with the foot soldiers on the ground and goes all the way up into the oval office. it's possible that there are different groups, each trying in their own way to interfere with the transfer of power. we'll have to wait and see what the justice department decides its evidence will prove. >> i've been very frustrated myself with mayor carlin. but on this one, i have to say kudos to the department of justice. this is an important case. joyce chance, malcolm nance, and yes, y'all, you better be watching rachel maddow. you're going to get so much information. this is a very big, big story on a busy night. president biden goes to capitol hill to fight for voting rights. but kyrsten sinema sabotaged the effort before he even had a chance to arrive. also, more than 800,000 covid deaths in this country, the right wing supreme court ruled today in favor of the virus. plus, tonight's absolute worst spent thousands of dollars on a tv ad targeting an audience of one. and she is not the only one sucking up to the biggest loser.

>> well, kyrsten sinema didn't just disrespect joe biden, she disrespected american democracy. and it's incredibly ironic that she called john lewis her hero, but she is going to allow republican filibuster the john lewis voting rights act on martin luther king day. and really, she is allowing republicans, her and joe manchin are allowing republicans to set the terms of the entire fight. because what's happening is republicans in the states are passing all of these voter suppression laws on simple majority party line votes. but cinema is saying we can't protect voting rights in the u.s. senate on a party line simple majority vote. so what she is essentially saying is it's too partisan and divisive to stop laws whose entire purpose are to be partisan and divisive. so basically, republicans are plotting the next coup. they're doing everything they can to take over election operations in every key swing state. and sinema and manchin are basically saying we're not going to do anything to stop it. imagine -- >> yeah. >> the message that sends to the republican party and the message it sends to voters all across the country who need badly federal protection for voting rights right now. >> i hate to say it, i don't know this woman, maria teresa kumar, but she'll be fine, right? if is there an autocratic takeover of the united states, she has all these rich donor friends. she is a well paid white lady with lots of friends in high places. she probably feels they won't hurt her. but her state it might hurt quite significantly. the state of arizona is 31.7% latino. it's 5.2% african american. it's 4% asian, pacific islander. the indigenous population makes up 5.3% of the state. it's going to hurt somebody, but it's not going to hurt her. she clearly doesn't give a damn. let her argue with her. this is kyrsten sinema back in 2010 on the false pressure for 60 votes. here she is. >> the democrats can stop kowtowing to joe lieberman, and instead seek other avenues to move forward with health reform. it's likely the senate will move forward with a process called reconciliation, which only takes 51 votes. the republicans controlled the senate for quite some time. in fact, since around 1994. they never had 60 votes, and they managed to do a lot of really bad things during that time. so the reconciliation process is still quite available, and we will use it for good, rather than foreevil. >> your thoughts, mtk, as somebody who has made it your life's work and your passion to ensure that the rising majority in this country, that latino voters have access to the ballot. >> well, kyrsten sinema seems to be very much of the political stripes that she'll change to whoever is calling her name the most. in this case it seems to be being courted by the rich and the wealthy of the republican party. the challenge, though, is she does not represent the interests of the state at all. you mentioned the rising electorate there. the young people that you talked about, african americans and latinos are disproportionate young arizonans. they are aging into the population. they are trying to define their future for this country. and it's by no coincidence that the modern-day jim crow laws, joy, coincide with the rise of young diverse america. for the second time in a row, for the second decade in a row, latinos are responsible for 50% of our population growth. american-born children who happen to be latino. and when you look at states like georgia, when you look at states like arizona, when you look at states like texas together with the african american community and the latino community, it's an incredible force. instead of having the republicans compete for us on policy issues, they want to control and control and centralize power. and sinema wants to be a part of that apartheid autocratic government. and that's the question we should ask. we should also ask where are the patriots on the republican side? where are the mitt romneys? why isn't he standing up. i understand from his father's legacy which is what he claims why he is here, his father would be completely i believe really upset and angry at what the republicans are doing, because they're not talking about party politics at this case. what they're trying to do is they're trying to erode literally democracy. as the president said the other day, voting, the axis of voting booth, that is the threshold to a functioning democracy. what kamala harris said the other day, atlanta, she said these voting rights are going to affect every single american. she is not wrong. because what happens at autocratic governments is it gets to a point where it's no longer about the color of your skin, it's the amount in your bank account because you centralize power on your cronies and your friends. that is not only the antithesis of america, but it actually goes against our promise. what we need -- people say what do we do now? we need every single american right now calling their members of congress, calling their senators and saying that it's not okay. and we need to look for new leadership in arizona, quite frankly. >> yeah. and people who love democracy need a long-term plan to replace every single one of these people who think that an autocracy in which they think they'll be the us and we'll all be the them, they think that's better than a democracy, they need to all start thinking about those long-term voting plans. maria teresa kumar, ari berman, thank you very much. we still have a lot to get to tonight. a major blow to the biden's efforts to get this ongoing never-ending pandemic under control. we're back after this. we're back after this. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ with chase security features, guidance and convenience, banking feels good. chase. make more of what's yours. at intra-cellular therapies, we're inspired by our circle. a circle that includes our researchers, driven by our award-winning science, who uncover new medicines to treat mental illness. it includes the compassionate healthcare professionals, the dedicated social workers, and the supportive peer counselors we work with to help improve - and even change - people's lives. moving from mental illness to mental wellness starts in our circle. this is intra-cellular therapies. >> woman: what's my safelite story?

>> you know, it doesn't make sense. and in a public health perspective, it only hurts us. it is only good for our public self and supports large businesses to keep their employees safe. and they can do so by either ensuring that they get vaccinated or that they get tested. and if they're positive, to stay away from other individuals that can also spread the virus and cause more sick days and loss of productivity for that company. so it is a bad day for our public health efforts. but we still have some good news. the biden administration has purchased over 500 million tests. they're on their way to providing 300 million a month. we're also have these pilot programs with the health and human services and usda that we see here where they're taking the tests to the people, into the communities that are vulnerable. if you're food insecure, you are more likely to get sick. you have lack of access, lack of space in your household to prevent from getting infected and quarantining, being able to quarantine away from other family members. and therefore this is a very high-risk vulnerable population. and i think it's very smart. and the pilot program is working. this organization under the leadership of deb espinosa has already distribute 50,000 tests. today they're going to distribute over 800 testing kits to households right here in palm springs in the coachella valley. >> and god bless that and everyone involved in doing that. and credit where credit is do. that is actually a wonderful program and the biden administration deserves credit for it. we're trying to save lives here that is the end goal. neal, i have to say, i don't have faith in the supreme court. i think they're ideologues. i think they're right-wing ideologues do a version of whatever the supreme court used to do. biden talked today about united airlines where he said -- let me listen to what he said. this is president biden today talking about one company that benefitted from these mandates. >> united airlines was averaging one employee dying a week from covid-19. after implementing its requirement, it's led to 99% of its employing being vaccinated. united had 3,600 employees test positive, but zero hospitalizations. zero deaths in over eight weeks. >> i mean, the administration had made an estimate that the mandate would result in 22 million people getting vaccinated and prevent 250,000 hospitalizations. the usual six voted the way we would expect them to vote, the six right-wingers. at this point, neal, have they not just simply stated by their actions that they are more in favor of right-wing politics, the kind of right-wing politics than they are in favor of saving lives? they don't care if that causes less people to die, clearly. >> joy, i do think this is a really dark day for the court and for the country. and today's supreme court machine is kind of like the kyrsten sinema of supreme court opinions. >> yeah. >> and i don't say that lightly in attacking the court. i rarely do attack the court. i lost another case today at the supreme court about veteran's benefits. stay silent on that. today's vaccines is such a threat to public safety. and the idea that the supreme court is responsible for it, it's really hard to imagine. the justices are now living in their own bubble. i just argued there recently, and i can't tell you all the covid restrictions they had. i had to get a negative test. they barred all the visitors and the public from being there. they moved the podium back 15 feet so that i was farther away. they did all sorts of things to control their work environment. and what president biden did and what osha did is say look, if you're an ordinary employee, we know you can't control your work environment the way that the supreme court justices can. so we're going to do it for you and impose these restrictions. a and the court had a legal fiction to get around it. what they said today is, well, quote, it's not a occupational hazard because you could get covid at work or you could get it at school or a baseball game. well, by that logic, then osha, this agency shouldn't regulate fire prevention plans. >> right. >> because you could forget to turn off the oven or your kids could be playing with matches. i mean, it is ludicrous. i just think this is such a bad thing for the court and bad thing for public health. and i'm so grateful to people like the congressman for doing what they can to patch the gaps when our justices aren't protecting us. >> i have to ask you very quickly, what did they do to veteran's benefits? very quickly? >> it's the social security benefits. they cut them back for a certain category of veterans today. >> of course. of course. at this point, neal, it is hard to think of them as anything other than right-wing ideologues. they should all have right-wing talk radio shows. they are not justices in the great tradition of supreme court justices. they're just politicians. as far as i'm concerned, i see nothing what they're doing that i can possibly respect. it's sad what's happening to this country. but i thank you for being here, neal katyal as always. congressman raul ruiz, thank you for what you're doing. you are doing god's work out there. we really appreciate you. stay tuned for a little bit more, because we still have tonight's absolute worse. how the twice impeached disgraced former president. we'll be right back. we'll be right back. ♪wouldn't you like to get away?

i'm not going to vote for anybody that can't have a working relationship with president trump because if you can't do that, you will fail. >> hard to believe that a year ago lindsey went on to the senate floor after january 6 and said enough was enough and to count him out when it came to trump. and then we come to the man vying to be the next speaker of the house, at least in name only, kevin mccarthy, who is previewing his future subservient role, telling the january 6 committee he will not cooperate in their investigation. >> there is nothing that i can provide the january 6 committee for legislation of their moving forward. there is nothing in that realm. it is pure politics of what they're playing. >> of course there is plenty that he could provide the committee, but that would involve having a shred of integrity. the vice chair of the account liz cheney said last night i wish he were a brave and honorable man. he is clearly trying to cover up what happened. unfortunately, brave and honorable are not words that have been used to describe this republican party, and there are real consequences to them being, you know, the absolute worst. we'll get that with former rnc chair michael steele, next. goodness. new chapter. wellness well done. trelegy for copd.

[music: “you can get it if you really want” by jimmy cliff] people everywhere living with type 2 diabetes are waking up about once-daily trelegy, to what's possible... with rybelsus®. the majority of people taking rybelsus® lowered their blood sugar and reached an a1c of less than 7. rybelsus® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes. don't take rybelsus® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or an allergic reaction. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. tell your provider about vision problems or changes. taking rybelsus® with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. wake up to the possibility of lower a1c with rybelsus®. you may pay as little as $10 for up to a 3-month prescription. ask your healthcare provider about rybelsus® today. it's been nearly two years since the pandemic started. our students and teachers tried their best, but as a parent, i can tell you that nearly 18 months of remote learning was really hard. i'm so angry that instead of helping our kids get back in the classroom, the school board focused on renaming schools schools that weren't even open . please recall all three school board members now. for the sake of our kids, we can't wait one more day, never mind a whole year for a fresh start. how problematic is it if all the house republicans refuse to talk to you guys? >> it's unfortunate if people who take the same oath that i took to uphold and defend the constitution don't want to talk about efforts to thwart that constitution and to prevent a free and fair election, to prevent a peaceful transfer of power. those are things that are deeply problematic and that's what we're seeing on the other side. >> the refusal so far of republican members of congress to cooperate with the january 6 committee begs the question, who issal -- is alfredo? it must be head spinning for you to watch the party you used to be chairman of to say that they don't have to respond to subpoenas. we put up a list of people saying they don't have to respond to this committee, they don't have to respond to subpoenas, they don't have to respond at all. the committee chairman right now called it unprecedented and inappropriate, and kevin mccarthy, who wants to be speaker of the house. your thoughts? >> yeah, i think a lot of that was said in a motion probably, but the reality is i didn't have to do anything. it was embedded in the system. so when the republican leadership saw how much trump could get away with, that inspired, it incentivized, it offered protection, and so what is really interesting to see play out is how the january 6 committee now tackles that and is actually pushing into and up and against that idea. it will be interesting to see whether or not they make mccarthy and others hold and honor that subpoena in some form. never been tested, never been tried, but the expectation of the republican side is they don't have the you-know-what to do it, anyway, they don't have the kahunas, so we'll just go to a bank of microphones despite saying i would show up and say, no, no, this is all politics. well, this is not all politics. january 6 is not about the politics, january 6 is about the attempted overthrow of our government. and as elected officials who served in that government and who were threatened outside the walls and doors knocking to come in, you would think they would want to care enough to participate to get to the bottom of it. but there is no incentive there for them to do it. >> it's sort of fascinating. we talk about norms and i think that word might just need to be thrown out. donald trump reset the sort of parameters for what you can get away with as a political figure. these people literally had their lives threatened by the oathkeepers, the proud boys and this mob, but they're more afraid of some retired loser in florida who can't even tweet. he can't even get on twitter. why are they so terrified of him? is it because he has so primed the base into a cult and they fear for their lives if they speak against him? >> that's the key thing, joy. he's primed the base and he continues to prime the base. look at lindsey graham from january 7 to today, right? last night he's talking about, well, if you don't stand with trump and support trump, i'm not voting for you. well, okay, until you do. you know, because it starts to go south with trump like it did on january 6, what are you going to do? oh, i'm done. well, guess what? we're at a point now as citizens, we should be tired of this crap. we've seen this movie. we've heard the dialogue over and over and over. we can say the moment they open their mouths that it's words leading to nothing. it means nothing. when they speak, they literally mean nothing. so it's incumbent on the rest of us to work past that. i just -- i cannot stress enough how profoundly important it is to understand what this november's election means. >> yeah. >> in many respects, it's more important than last year's, the 2020 election. >> you and i used to spar on msnbc, we used to be on panels together and we had some real political disagreements that were legitimate and political. you were like, no, i want us to expand this party. i don't want it to be a 90% white party. i want us to be talking about hip-hop artists. what do you think made republicans say we absolutely don't want that, what we would rather do is simply lock people of color out of the ballot box and just outright flip elections that we don't like -- how did they get to the point -- trump could not have personally been responsible for making the party what it is now. it couldn't have been him by himself. he's not that smart. >> it certainly wasn't. this goes all the way back to the birch party, the responsibility of the party at that time, it goes back to mccarthyism. in 2009 i gave a speech to the national press club declaring that the smithsonian southern strategy was over, that the party could no longer exist in a compromised position with voters, that you either have to stand with them or you're going to be against them. and when it comes to voting rights, when it comes to civil rights, when it comes to all the things that are important to white folks, they're also important to black folks. and our party should be able to go forth and make that articulation. so what happened, you look at the numbers, and you see the demographic shifts and so many folks got scared. and they got more and more scared. and the political calculation very much that was made in the 1960s was made again that that's the salvation. that's the salvation. there will always be white people and they'll always vote republican. and that mindset is what has kept the party, i think, landlocked. if you don't believe me, just look at what they did with the autopsy. you spend a million dollars to tell america, we want the hispanic vote. you let this guy come down a staircase and tell you, well, all mexicans are rapists and murderers, and the chairman of the party sits there in new york and starts the groveling process to appease a guy who had about 60% approval in the ratings. it brought them money and power. >> the only way that somebody with trump's level of intellect can take over the party is a beta male party. these are the most beta males i've ever seen. they just wilt in front of him and grovel on the floor. he still gets to be the autocrat. it's amazing. michael steele, i appreciate you, my brother. thanks for watching "the reidout." chris starts now. they hold all january 6 perpetrators at any level accountable under law. >> the department of justice finally moves up the maga food chain. >> we will follow the facts wherever they lead. >> tonight, jaw-dropping details in the seditious conspiracy charges for a right wing extremist leader, and what
