Hi, everyone. Its 4 00 in new york. Its becoming the Noahs Ark of american politics. Passengers climb on board two by two including Alexandria Ocasiocortez and Bernie Sanders as well as Adam Kinzinger and the former number three House Republican with the last name practically synonymous with what the conservative republican party in its most strictly conservative It Ration used to be all about. All of them now in the same boat to save democracy from a disgraced, twiceimpeached expresident with the fondness for dictators abroad and a yearning to be one right here at home in america. All this critical Post Labor Day juncture in the 2024 campaign, Conservative Stall Worth Vice Chair Liz cheney announcing she will vote for Vice President Kamala Harris for president. Heres that moment. I think it is crucially important for people to recognize not only is what i just said about the danger that trump poses something that should prevent people from voting from for him, but i dont think we have
are they going to roll over or say republicans are cheating white wing extremists literal i have a plan to steal the next presidential election they are not making a secret of it. the right wing control supreme court may be poised to rule on giving state legislatures, yes, you heard me that correctly. state legislatures the power to overturn presidential elections. just think, if that happens, the 2024 presidential election could be decided not by the popular vote, or even by the ache critical condition chauvinistic electoral college but by state legislatures. many of them republican controlled. jesse: hillary thinks the supreme court is going to dump the electoral college. that s not going to happen. democrats are getting into their bag of tricks a little too early here. usually you lose and then you claim you got cheated. hillary is premature election denying. bill doesn t have that problem. so, where s the media? this makes three elections that hillary says has been 1208
dangers the men and women in the capitol faced that day. the perils that our nation faced as a whole and the former the president s justification for what happened. i went to washington because they were angry with an election that they think was rigged. a very small portion went down to the capitol. a very small portion of them went in. but they were angry from the standpoint of what happened in the election because they are smart and they see and saw what happened. among the crowd that day, far right extremists like the proud boys and oath keepsers welcome the focus of tomorrow s hearing along with trump s role encouraging them to march on the capitol. the president tweets on the wee hours of december 19th to be there and be wild. it was a siren call to these folks. and we ll talk in detail about what that caused them to do, how that caused them to organize as well as who else was amplifying that message. the committee member who will lead tomorrow s hearing says th
violent actions. you ll also hear from stephen ayres who was directly influenced by president trump s tweet to travel to washington for a day he said would be wild. and there is immense pressure on the committee today in what could be a put up or shut up moment to prove to the nation that there is a direct link between former president donald trump and those extremists responsible for the chaos at the capitol. there s a lot of expectation on new video clips of former white house counsel pat cipollone from his nearly eight-hour deposition last week. what did he tell the committee about what he advised the president on and around january 6th, and what did he corroborate from the testimony of others, specifically cassidy hutchinson. ladies, listen, just to get us up to speed on what we have seen so far, there s been a number of hearings, a number of weeks between them, just to catch us all up. remember the first one started with him knowing that he lost, being told that he los
further inflamed the rioters as they were raging through the capitol hunting down the vice president and shouting, hang mike pence. in a preview video released this week, you saw liz cheney referencing a federal judge s ruling back in march that the former president probably violated federal statutes throughout that pressure campaign. a campaign conceived, in part, by lawyer john eastman, a character you will meet today. a big player inside that circle of election deniers working around the clock to try to keep donald trump in power. this hour, we will expand that inner circle with a look at ginni thomas, the wife of supreme court justice clarence thomas. bennie thompson saying that it is time for the committee to hear from thomas, quote, soon. this is a change in the committee s position and it comes after new bombshell reporting from the washington post on the emails between thomas and john eastman about overturning the election. we are going to talk about the new foc
