activist rob ryan ner. welcome back to the sunday show. it s great to be here. congratulations on your paper anniversary. for that, i m going to get you a subscription to the washington post. i know youthere, but, the paper version, not online. i already have it. we ll take every subscription we can get. you ve been paying attention to this. one of the knocks against the committee is they need to be doing more. they need to be more showy. my colleague jean robinson at the washington post says they need public hearings. are you in that camp? and they need public hearings now. yes. not next year but right now. well, i mean, people are not going to be paying attention between now and the end of the year, but i agree they do need public hearings. i had a conversation with jamie raskin just yesterday about this. he said they will starting at the beginning of the year they
now think about this, there s never been a sitting president of the united states that has attempted to overthrow the government. that s what we have. it s all out there in plain view. and we better pay attention because many people have said, this is a dress rehearsal and trump is still, you know, stirring things up and getting all his followers, you know, engaged, and these people are not hesitant to use guns. we ve seen that in the past. and they ll continue to do it. so we have to stop them now. you know, we re going to be talking more about the, you know, dress rehearsal for the coup or the ongoing insurrection that is happening in this country. rob ryan ner, i want to thank you very much for coming back to the sunday show. i forgot to tell you something one of the last times you were on. loved your performance in
all right. let s take one more turn and let s talk about the puerto rican vote. getting out the vote is the prime objective. they haven t done the best job of making it happen. rob, you are part of a campaign that is working to turn that around. i m going to play a little bit of that back and let you explain what this is. my first thoughts when hurricane maria hit was my family. i thought about them and i thought about all the rest of the people there. the response from the trump administration, it confirmed that old stigma that we were second class citizens. fellow puerto rico cans, we will tell president trump on november 6th exactly who we are. share this video and mark your calendar. november 6th, we vote. that of course is the great rosie perez. you have rita moreno involved.
explanation that he was killed after, get this, he got into a fist fight with more than a dozen men in and a bone saw. trump initially told reporters on friday that he found that explanation to be credible. but in an interview with the washington post last night he said, quote, obviously there s been deception and there s been lies. joining me now, jennifer reuben, opinion writer for the washington post. rob ryan ner who einer and tiff. let me play one more republican talking about the saudis. this is senator bob corker who let s listen to bob corker talking about how the saudis should be punished for the khashoggi killing. everybody can say what they wish, but it s just not a credible story for somebody to walk in, 15 other people, and get into a fist fight and lose their life. sanctions are a blunt
