so we started digging. as a movement, we have lawyers and activists and all these different professions that have come together to dig and find the story and find what s happening here. we were disregarded as conspiracy theoryists for so long. to hear britney say those words in court was so validating and vindicating and we re so happy we were able to get her to where she is now. you guys did this. you are the people. if there s been progress, it s because of you and your colleagues in the free britney movement. she thanked you all. obviously we ll continue to follow this. thank you so much for being here. thank you. we have some more excerpts from that explosive new book, i alone can fix it. new details.
president trump s return to the campaign stage likely to embolden conspiracy theoryists, many of whole pushing the idea that the president can be reinstated in august, a theory trump himself has promoted. top counterterrorism officials at the department of homeland security are concerned. the narrative, they say, could trigger another violent response from extremists, similar to what we saw in january. white house press secretary jen psaki addressed the issue friday. is this administration prepared for we heard rumblings from the former president and supports about august him being reinstated in august. the president is prepared to govern and lead the united states of america. of course should there be an elevation, an escalation, that would be something we would monitor and track as well. joining me, mike roth child,

you hear the lunacy of that, what goes through your mind? it s just so, so maddeningly familiar now, right, anytime they can t live with the truth, and i say they, i mean everyone from the conspiracy theoryists online to fox news to our republican members on the hill. they conjure up some ridiculous, absurd ab absurd theory to put law enforcement and the fbi at the center of some conspiracy. it s so, so stupid and contrary to the facts but unfortunately we ve seen this a lot in the last couple years. the fbi s emerged as one of their favorite kind of excuses and whipping boys and that s really having a detrimental effect on the organization, on its morale, and on its ability to establish a relationship of trust with the americans it protects. so it s incredibly damaging but like i said this isn t the first time we ve seen that.
