The nbc reporting On Whistle Blowers who were told to downplay a Covid Outbreak among migrant kids at a shelter when All In starts right now. Good evening, from no, im chris hayes. It was a failed coup. Lets call it what it was. An immediate after math of the January 6th attack in the early revelations of Donald Trumps attempts, both privately to overturn the democratic election, there was a back and forth about whether coup was the appropriate term. But as we learn more, it really does feel like thats the best way to describe what we are talking about here. Today we got new evidence that supports precisely that. Earlier today the New York Times first reported not only did donald Trump Press the Justice Department to save the rules of the 2020 president ial election were corrupt.

Good morning. Its saturday, july 31st. Im ali velshi. A number of stunning new revelations about the twice impeached expresident. Apparently his efforts to overturn the Election Results of 2020 were greater than we knew. Just 11 days before a violent mob of supporters would attack our nations capitol, the expresident appears to have attempted a coup of his own. In brandnew reporting from the New York Times, notes from Top Doj officials reveal that the former president pressed the Justice Department and the Attorney General himself to declare the Election Results corrupt. Even though there was no evidence to support that claim. According to notes taken by the former acting deputy Attorney General, the expresident directed him and the former acting Attorney General, jeffrey rosen, to just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and to congressional allies. Leave the rest to me. For the first time were starting to uncover specific details about the former president s ch
Local San Luis Obispo county politics have made that mistake, thus marking themselves as outsiders. But a few weeks ago, couple weeks ago here, on the show, we reported on a sort of troubling situation. In san luis county.

They, specifically, wanted to talk about the Election Results and their suspicions about the countys chiefelection official. A man named tommy gong. From the evidence i have seen, i believe this machine was used to alter the Vote Counting in this county. And we need an independentforensic audit to verify its accuracy. Tommy gong is using every excuse available to prevent an audit, giving his assurance that the count was 100 accurate.
Better. Back to that story later. Up first, degts and the House Intelligence Committee getting a briefing this hour on the scope of what some lawmakers say is a shocking Trump Abuse of power. We know the Trump Justice Department took extraordinary measures to investigate leaks of sensitive information, including subpoenas to apple, for data from accounts linked to at least two democrats on the Intelligence Committee. Adam schiff and the eric swalwell. The subpoenas first reported last night for the New York Times were so broad they covered more than 00 accounts and sought data not only from devices used by lawmakers, but also staff, family members, even from a child. Donald trump identified Chairman Schiff and members of the committee as an enemy of his and just like Vladimir Putin, or erdogan, or xi in china, he used the power of Government Corruptly to go after his perceived political opponents.
