declare victory. they needed time for the votes to come in. disregards what they say. and then just continue with a big lie. even when his attorney general told him it was bs. when other senior members of the justice department said there was no merit to the fraud allegations. the u.s. attorney in georgia looked into other allegations and said they were without merit. he s told over and over again this is just not true. but he continues with it. and they raise money off the big lie. anger and motivate people to show up on the 6th around the big lie. and those people he insights to attack the capitol. and it s a pretty clear linear progress of that big lie from beginning to end. i think there s a question here about accountability that you and i have talked about before. the idea of clearly drying a line between the former president and what happened on this day. you don t have the ability to bring criminal proceedings, but you could make criminal referrals. what s your mess
we hold our hearings next month we wish to provide members the opportunity to discuss these matters with the committee voluntarily. regrettably, the individuals receiving subpoenas today have refused and we are forced to take this step to make sure the committee uncovers facts concerning january 6th. we urge our colleagues to comply with the law and do their patriotic duty and cooperate with our investigation as hundreds of other witnesses have done, and the committee lays out in clear detail just why they need the testimony of these five congressmen pointing to their roles in multiple aspects of the trump coup plot. the committee writes this about jim jordan, representative jim jordan was in communication with trump on january 6th and participated in meetings and discussions throughout late 2020 and early 2021 about strategies for overturning the 2020 election. regarding scott perry, the committee says, he was, quote, directly involved with efforts to corrupt the department
And can another candidate get 217 votes and this is a huge question as the leaderless house. He is using other to pressure the members of congress to vote for him. Yeah. That is exactly right. That is the hope that, ultimately that these members will come to his side. Expect there could be breaks in between each of these votes. We will see exactly how this plays out but a lot of uncertainty at the moment but there could be meetings that happen to try to pick off these members onebyone. We will see if they decide to recess longer a few hours or maybe come back the next day. We will see. They hope they can eventually get the members by tonight to come their way and perhaps that Pressure Campaign they believe will get them to come to their side. One said i will close out entirely if they pressure him. We expect him to vote for Steve Scalise on the floor and not jim jordan. Dana, what are you hearing . I want to underscore, based on some reporting that im doing, one of the aspects of jorda
This conflict alone, and in the last conflict in may 21, we had the same amount, roughly the same amount of rockets fired and rockets that landed short inside the gaza strip. I remember clearly an event that was reported live on fox where he was standing inside gaza and the reports that came out was of an israeli strike which is the Knee Jerk Response around the world and he reported that he saw with his own eyes a rocket that misfired and landed in northern gaza. I think it was jabalia and caused casualties and the death of a palestinian family. So this is not unprecedented. It has happened many times in the past and it is do youcument and for those willing to listen and not to automatically blame israel for it there is ample truth of the fact that this has happened many times before, granted, not a hospital and not so many casualties, but the fact of the matter is rockets misfire and land in gaza and they have been doing so for years. We have been careful about our reporting and cert
Than a political side show. Could they go away altogether . The latest on donald trump calling for the gop to pull the Plug On Future Debates as he questions whether any of his opponents should even be Vice President. And is the shutdown a sure thing . President biden insists it isnt, but his hopes hinge on House Republicans, in his words, doing their job. And theyve got now less than three days to do it. So what happens next . Lots to talk about, but were going to start in washington where one small group perhaps ten conservative republican lawmakers are refusing to support any Stopgap Measure to keep the government from shutting down 59 hours from now. Instead, the far right is committing critical hours to an Impeachment Inquiry that a new poll shows most americans do not want, and not only is there little time or public appetite for this hearing, theres zero evidence to justify holding it. And of the three witnesses for the majority, none of them seems to have any evidence firsthand
