Bama bludgeons the buckeyes and saban sets past paul bryant with his seventh national championship. All right. Here we go. A fox news alert. New security concerns will surround tomorrows house vote to impeach President Trump for a second time . Steve this as many republicans block the 25th amendment. They have given the Vice President the House Democrat have 24 hours to invoke the 25th amendment. Ainsley right. Thats not going to happen so they will end up taking up a vote tomorrow. Griff jenkins is live in washington with more for us. Griff good morning. A lot to get to. Starting with this. The president is taking some of the blame for the capitol riot according to minority leader Kevin Mccarthy who says the president acknowledged it that conversation with him. Mccarthy then relaying that to the House Republicans on a Conference Call yesterday, according to sources familiar with that call. Now, this as the house moves forward on a single article of impeachment. Incrime of insurrection. House democrats issuing a statement after introducing it saying, quote we cannot begin to heal the soul of this country without first delivering swift justice to all its enemies, foreclosure and domestic. Speaker pelosi appears confident she has the votes. Some Senate Democrats are warning against it. There will be 48 still 48 democrats until we seat warnock and senator ossoff. So, until that happens, will you need 67 votes. I think my aarithmetic that means we have 19 republicans. I dont see that and i think the house should know that, also. We have been trying to send that message over. Meanwhile, House Republicans are calling on president elect biden to intervene in the rush to impeach. This president is not an imminent threat to this country at this point. Lets get through the inauguration and lets look back and make some decisions. Griff this as at fox news learns lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have security concerns because of Impeachment Vote because not all security measures are fully in place. Yesterday President Trump approved an Emergency Declaration in d. C. Ahead of bidens inauguration saying conditions exist from january 11th to the 24th. We may hear from President Trump actually, guys, when he heads down to the texas border to tout some 450 miles built since he became president. Brian, ainsley, steve . Brian brian all right. Thanks, griff. Griff has been at the border an awful lot. He knows, too, if they stop building the wall there is huge penalties to pay for that these contracts have been signed hopefully president elect joe biden realizes that by the way, do you know what the theme to joe bidens inauguration is and maybe his first four years american united. Do you know one thing that can guarantee america wont be united . Ainsley having impeachment. Brian having an impeachment trial on a president who will be at mauller. Think about the wisdom of that the if you believe America Works better together. If you believe that america could be more effective and has been ineffective because we have been at each others throats . What could be more disenchanting. Ainsley they dont want him to run again. Brian they dont want him to run again, thats fine. You understand too a lot of people want him to, number one, continue to be a force in the republican party. Believe a lot what he believes. He has 75 million supporters. If you have overarching sense that i have got to bring the country together because we see whats happening around this country how 50 state houses are being threatened on Inauguration Day this is the last thing you want to do. It astounds me that now Chuck Schumer, guys, is exploring a possible work around using the authority granted to two senators back in 2004 to reconvene the senate in times of emergency, i assume, this and have a quick Impeachment Vote. Fantastic idea. Mitch mcconnell has to sign off on it but it would be as dumb as nancy pelosi hopping on 60 minutes last night and saying the president is imminent threat. Ainsley Mitch Mcconnell said i wouldnt do that. I wouldnt bring back emergency session unless i had support of all 100 senators. Brian exactly. Steve brian, you just touched on it the worry of federal officials and other Law Enforcement folks around the country are they have intel that they are you know, theyre looking online. They know that just like before the riots in washington last week, there are armed protests planned all across the country. And, in fact, there are apparently armed protests planned in all 50 state capitols. Protesting is fine. But given the fact of what happened last week, it would be great if the president came out and said in the next, you know, before Inauguration Day, you know, its fine to hear your voice and express your opinion but there cannot be any violence absolutely none. Because violence is what got him into all this hot water. Apparently behind the scenes the idea over the next week or so will with the president is essentially to run out the clock. And Jared Kushner is working the phones urging his allies to argue there is not enough time. But then, brian, to your point, about, you know, is this the kind of United America that joe biden want to start with . No. Because he wants everybody on the same page but if you are going after somebody who is very popular to a big chunk of the country thats a problem. Kim pearly strossel from the wall street journal has that observation will yesterday. Its not that there isnt the will you dont have the time. Are the house is going to bring this up on wednesday even if they did it all in a day that would leave six days for the senate to get through an entire impeachment process and that would be just to then deprive the president of one day in office this is most hurting joe biden. We dont have any of his National Security staff or nominees confirmed yet. Thats unprecedented and the senate doesnt have time to do both of these. It would be better if the president elect came out and told his party to stand down. Steve well, that would be great. And apparently yesterday, when he got his he got his second dose of the vaccine, joe biden said he is asking the senate to see whether or not they can beaver indicate what they are bifurcate what they are doing. In other words, can they do two things at the same time. The will parliamentarian. Will people looked at it before miley unlikely that the senate could go ahead and have a trial, ainsley, which would consume the entire senate and do the business of the early days of the joe biden administration. Ainsley yeah. Well, so the house can do it just for the vote. They will do it this week. Thats going to happen just like they did last year, right . Steve simple majority. Ainsley led to an acquittal. The trial took three weeks last year. If the senate decides to take on this trial, it could take that long. They wouldnt even get it until next week because Mitch Mcconnell is not going to bring them back for emergency session this week unless he has support of everyone and thats not going to happen. If they start this trial next week and takes three weeks. That means thats going to delay joe bidens cabinet picks and those nominations. Its also going to delay some of his policies, legislative initiatives from not moving ahead including a new round of economic stimulus. So how is that going to make everyone around the country feel . These Restaurant Owners that have closed down. These people, these dry cleaners that arent getting the money that they used to in their businesses and they are wrapped up in impeachment when america is saying look, we need help. And our Biggest Issue right now vaccines, staying safe. Opening our businesses. Steve and, ainsley, to your point about it just takes a simple majority in the house. Ainsley right. Steve they have got the majority, thats one thing. But then when there is a senate trial, it takes a super majority. You have got to have 67 u. S. Senators say yep, lets convict him of this Impeachable Offense which in this case is incrime of insurrection. Will. Brian if you want to stand the economy back up and confirm your nominations and go et this country together, you dont spend the first half of the day before lunch trying to convict al president thats at his resort. Ainsley he would need 7 republican senators to support it. Brian ainsley, its a colossal waste of time. It would be different if its a year and a half its six days. Ainsley do you think they will take it up like clyburn 100 days later and that way he wont be able to run again. Brian fends if joe biden has an ounce of leadership in his body he will not allow it. Steve 67. Brian big tech censorship. Probably the most disturbing series of events that took place that even alerted other World Leaders like Angela Merkel. They have totally shut down the president of the United States doing his job. They shut down the twitter account for the president. They shut down his personal twitter account. They shut down facebook. They shut down parler. Where a lot of conservatives were leaving twitter and they were going to parler. And then out of nowhere friday night, they decide without telling them, they found out on buzzfeed reading a news story that parler was being disbanded, essentially. Amazon, apple and google said you just do not meet our qualifications. So to parlers credit, they have filed a lawsuit against amazon, accusing the company of antitrust violations after are theyre cut its web services. Right now they are flat on their back. Can you imagine being the number one app. In the country, one day, and the next time combined series of forces take you down to your knees. John matze was on last night. He is the parler ceo with tucker. We woke up on friday thinking business will never business as usual parler but at least close to usual as possible number one on the app. Store. You know, we had almost 7 million unique people on the app. That day. And we get a notice, you know, you are in violation of our terms. One after another. We found out first in some cases not from the companies but from buzzfeed. You know, we didnt get a notice from google. We read it online in the news first. We get annual email after email. You know, its almost like youre just waiting who is going to be next . Dumping us. Everybody. The last thing we have right now is email and i bet you within 24 hours our email will be shut off, too. People threatening my life. I cant go home tonight. This is not just, you know, arer civillicious they can shut down you half a billion dollars company. This is where we are getting valuations at overnight. Brian i would love democrats to be just as upset as republicans on this. Theyre coming for you. Do you want big tech to be in control of your life and be your National Editor . Elon musk is not happy about it responding to this story said a lot of people are going to be super unhappy with west coast high tech as the de facto arbiter of free speech. Truly disturbing what is taking place right now. Steve when you hear the ceo say we woke up on friday and we thought everything was fine, there is a reach for that. There is a great story in the wall street journal this morning that explains exactly what parler has been doing. On the day of the riots, amazon reached out to parler and said hey, there is a bunch of stuff on your website that is inappropriate. You have got to do something about it. And so they had 24 hours to respond and they did. And then amazon heard the response and said, you know what . Consider this resolved, you are fine. But then the next day amazon announced that they were booth them as did google and apple. Isnt that interesting . All the vendors pulled the plug. Brian unbelievable. Steve at the same time. It appears to be some sort of collusion. High tech do collusion with monster monopolies they all to the together on the same day. Behind the scenes there had been a push to try to punish the advertisers who are part of the Parler Community and things like that. And also behind the scenes the employees of google and amazon and apple will complaining we have got to do something about country and so is it just a coincidence that suddenly they all did something at the same time . This is clear i think his argument, his lawsuit against amazon, parlers, i think the best thing they got going is antitrust thing. It does look like collusion. Keep in mind, when you hear the free speech thing, thats one thing. But the First Amendment does not apply to private businesses. They can do whatever they want. But nonetheless, can they all get together and try to shut out another business . No. Ainsley so the statement from amazon they say it is clear that there is significant content on parler that encourages and incites violence against others. And that parler is unable or unwilling to promptly identify and remove this content which is a violation of our terms of services. We made our concerns known to parler over a number of weeks. And during that time we saw significant increase in this type of dangerous content. Not a decrease. Which led to our suspension of their services on sunday evening. Now, rand pauls wife made a good point. She put a message on twitter and it was directed at jack dorsey the ceo of twitter because she is basically saying you cant pick and choose. Why can some people be be violent and incite violence towards my family when parler is getting shut down on a certain platform but yet parler is getting shut down for the very thing hey jack meaning jack dorsey. Remember how last three years allowed thousands of hateful tweets celebrating my husbands assault and encouraging more violence against him. I do. The question is it really about inciting violence or is it about competition or is it about shutting down conservatives . Many people are asking those questions. Here is brit hume. You might be able to make a case for what these Big Tech Companies are doing if they did it consistently. In other words, if they are saying well, you know, people on your platform, sir, are talking about doing violence and so on and we cant have that. You know, this h they have got r of Foreign Countries the ayatollah in iran and other foreign leaders threatening all kinds of mayhem around the world. And that does not allow that does not lead to their being disqualified. This is political. This is not about safety. Its not about any of the rest of it. Its about shutting down voices that they and their staffs dont agree with they have the power now. I think these Big Tech Companies are playing with fire. Ainsley a lot of conservatives are upset including rush limbaugh. He took down his twitter page and many are wondering whats happening with parler . Are they going to be allowed to find another host for their business . John matze the ceo says its difficult to find a new vendor at first they will say no problem we found a new vendor. Then he says we call up the new vendor and good to go. At the last second somebody said something and now we cant. Will. Steve collusion, corporate collusion. Brian he said that the legal team quit on them. So they lose their lawyers. They lose their vendors. They lose all access to their website and they look around and go wait a second, where can i go . You know, i cant just use another airline. Amazon is in control of just about everything. Its going to be up to the courts to really save the country and i think its incredible too what else is happening with Corporate America. Corporate america is essentially signing off on the two party system. And just goings all in on democrats. Divorcing themself from republicans. Look at these employee donations that that have already gone to joe biden going in to this election as opposed to donald trump. Joe biden over 4 million if you look at. Ainsley from google. Brian microsoft over 2 million. Are donald trump 247,000. These are from employees. Amazon 2. 2 million from amazon employees to trump 260,000. So you knew where they stand. Look at apple 1. to 97,000. Facebook biden gets 1. 5. Trump gets 40,000. So you know exactly where their employees stand. These companies with all their power are saying i am picking democrats but i cant afford to really do that because the republicans have the power. They have the majority in the senate and the presidency. But as soon as as they seemingly got the majority in the senate and slight majority in the house and presidency they are all in on how they feel democrats are the right party. They are the ones that reflect what they believe the direction of the country should go in. Forget about fairness. Governor mike huckabee. The media is oblivious, totally oblivious to the things that have been said towards 75 or so million americans who really dont care that much about hurting anybody. And in fact, dont want to. Dont want to put anybody out of business. Just want to live our lives, be left alone. But, this kind of atmosphere were seeing, they are not just about yelling and screaming at us and condescending to us and treating us like dupes. They hate us enough. They want to put us all out of business and make us go away. Thats not america. And thats what i find so very depressing about this. Brian and in 15 minutes were going to tell you about other corporations that are now jumping off the republican bandwagon for good. I think this is a really scary time. I mean, i dont see any remedy except the courts using logic and law if theyre not corrupted. Steve what happened last wednesday was terrible, and differential entities are responding in different ways. You know, the corporate reaction seems to be in two broad categories. One, a lot of corporations are going after specific lawmakers who refuse the certification last wednesday. And, you know, and i understand
