public reporting and witness accounts indicate some individuals and groups engaged in efforts to gather information about the layout of the u.s. capitol as well as the house and senate office buildings in advance of january 6, 2021. they re talking about tours like the ones referenced by congresswoman sheryl in the days just after the insurrection. it was a shocking allegation in those ensuing days and one that raised some of the earliest questions about premeditation of that brutal attack on the capitol. the questions about whether or not sitting members of congress were involved in any way, shape or form in this nearly unprecedented attack on our country. here is congresswoman mikie cheryl back then. those that i saw on january 5th. those members of congress that incited this violent crowd. those members of congress that attempted to help our president undermine our democracy and i ll make sure they are held accountable and if necessary make sure that they don t serve in
Who paid for the. and one of the ways they did that was by will looking at a porta pot and tea the sa. . and then called the company and got in touch with them and through there were able to figure out who even paid for the porta-potties. that is the level of meticulousness that the select committee is dealing with what it comes to what they re turning up. charlie, what i was going to interject before jack made a much better point is that the committee has been at this in a very opaque manner and we only see things when they have to submit a filing and before they do it s whoa! they had all that. mark med owes said that and the evidence that they ve have, hit, and it is more leakly that not
Vote so closely, so we re going to spearhead a more aggressive investigation into can tol security and potentially even subpoena nancy speaker, nancy pelosi, along with her staff to find out more information, but this revelation pokes holes and shreds a lot of credibility if the republicans had anything to begin with and laudermilk who claims to have reviewed this footage lims led one of these tours in the lead-up to january 6th and it also shows, i think, the extensive amount of evidence that they ve collected and they seem to be checking off the boxes to make sure they give lawmakers again the opportunity to respond to this evidence which at this point seems irrefutable especially if they have it in video form. harry, i feel like this letter is telling us two things.
This is a quote from the loudermilk ethics complaint against congresswoman sherrill within 48 hours of the insurrection. it says this, no republican member of congress led any kind of reconnaissance tours through the capitol proven by security footage captured by the u.s. capitol police. can you explain to me the chain of custody for that security footage captured by the u.s. capitol police? was it a committee that he was on? did he have the authority to say i ll watch it? what would that process have been that would have been the basis for screening, and leading him to issue that denial that again, the 1/4 committee today calls a lie. that is a really good question, nicole, because at this point republicans do not have the majority and since their members are ranking members and are committee chairs they do lack the subpoena power
Issues in the country anymore. but when it facilitates and the only reason we ll have bans like the oklahoma ban is because of the united states supreme court, and they re going to enact things that have opposed by 83% of all americans. i think some polls show 90% of americans show access to an abortion if the life of the mother is endangered. that s not where we re heading. we re heading to policies that 90% of americans oppose. yes, i m going to get to the larger supreme court point in a second. i just want to make one point about this oklahoma law that s so disturbing in addition to all the things mara said. it s this enshrinement of vigilante justice that the texas law originally proposed. that the supreme court green lit when they refused to break down the ban. do i want to live in a state or country where even the legislature that passes the law doesn t have the conviction to execute it and say, hey, you citizens can go and sue people. or when the supreme court permit
