--
I TRIED ONE MAJOR CASE IN MY
LIFE.
THAT WAS A DUMB TRUMP ELECTION.
END UP WITH A 57 TO 43 VOTE,
WHICH IS A VICTORY, WE DIDN'T
GET THE TWO THIRDS.
SO IT WASN'T CONVICTED.
>> I THINK THAT IS ONE OF THE
CASE THAT WILL GO DOWN IN
HISTORY FOR THAT AND YOU SEEM
VERY DESERVING OF THE WAR.
I WANT TO GET YOUR SENSE OF
WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
AND HOW YOU ARE FEELING ABOUT
THE RESULTS, AS WE HAVE THEM
THUS FAR.
>> I FEEL GREAT ABOUT THE
RESULTS.
>> DO YOU THINK DEMOCRACIES IN
BETTER HANDS?
>> I FEEL ENCOURAGED, I FEEL
EMBOLDENED.
YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE RUNNING
AROUND SAYING THAT AMERICA WAS
GOING TO FALL FOR THIS WALL OF
DARK MONEY PROPAGANDA.
ABOUT CRIME INFLATION.
WHICH WAS AN ABSOLUTE
DISTRACTION FROM THE FACT THAT
JOE BIDEN IS PRESIDED OVER A
HUGE ECONOMIC COMEBACK FOR
AMERICA.
THE FACT THAT THEY ENDANGERED
OUT DEMOCRACY TO THE POINTS OF
ENCOURAGING A VIOLENT
INSURRECTION AGAINST THE
GOVERNMENT.
AND TRYING TO STAGE A COUP
AGAINST OUR CONSTITUTIONAL
ORDER.
AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOWED
THAT YOU'VE BEEN IN A MIDTERM
ELECTION WHEN THE PENDULUM
TENDS TO SWING TO THE PARTY.
EVEN UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS
PEOPLE ARE GOING TO STAND FOR
THE IDEA OF SOCIAL PROGRESS.
SO THE DEMOCRATS ARE HANGING
TOUGH.
AND THAT IS ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY.
I'M SO PROUD OF MY COLLEAGUES,
ACROSS AMERICA.
THAT'S WHAT FOUGHT SO HARD
UNDER VERY DIFFICULT
CONDITIONS.
MCCARTHY WENT OUT AND RAISE
HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
AND CORPORATE DARK MONEY TO LIE
ABOUT WHAT IS TAKING PLACE IN
THE COUNTRY.
AND THE PEOPLE REJECTED IT.
AND OUR CANDIDATES, SOME OF
WHOM WON, LIKE ABACUS BAMBERGER.
LIFETIME A LOFTY, SOME --
SO LAID DIDN'T WIN.
BUT I'M PROUD OF EVERYONE FOR
HANGING TOUGH FOR AMERICA.
SO, LOOK, IF WE ARE GOING UP AT
TWO MAJOR PARTIES OR PRO
DEMOCRACY.
TODAY WE HAD ONE DEMOCRACY
PARTY.
>> I WONDER, WHAT THE
IMPLICATIONS OF THAT ARE FOR
THE WORK THAT YOU ARE DOING.
FOR EXAMPLE, ON THE JANUARY 6TH
COMMITTEE.
ARE YOU GUYS PREPARING FOR A
POTENTIAL REPUBLICAN TAKEOVER.
DOESN'T SEEM LIKELY THAT KEVIN
MCCARTHY WILL BE A BIG FAN OF
CONTINUING THE IMPORTANT WORK
YOU HAVE BEEN DOING ON BEHALF
OF AMERICAN DEMOCRACY.
>> FIRST OF ALL, WE BEGIN A
TRANSPARENCY ACCOUNTABILITY,
WE'RE GONNA GET ALL THE
CRITICAL INFORMATION OUT TO
AMERICA.
WE'RE GONNA PRESERVE ALL OF OUR
RECORDS SO NOTHING GETS
DESTROYED AND WE'RE GOING TO
ISSUE A FINAL REPORT.
WHICH RECOUNTS THE FORMER
PRESIDENT SYSTEMATIC ASSAULT ON
THE CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER.
AND IN ATTEMPT TO SEIZE THE
PRESIDENCY.
IT IS ALSO GOING TO LOOK AT THE
STRUCTURAL CONDITIONS THAT ALLOWED HIM TO DO THAT.
ALLOWED HIM TO DO THAT.
THE ATTACK ON DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
EXTREMIST GROUPS.
THE FACT THAT THE EXTREMIST
GROUPS WERE RUNNING WILD ON
SOCIAL MEDIA.
AND A FOR LOGISTICAL CORONATION
OF THEIR PLANS FOR THE ASSAULT
ON THE CAPITOL.
AND SOME OF THE OTHER,
INGREDIENTS THAT TOOK PLACE.
SO IT CAN BE MORE IN-DEPTH.
AND MORE DETAILS ABOUT
EVERYTHING THAT WE FOUND.
AND THEN CONCLUDE WITH A SET OF
LEGISLATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS OF
HOW TO PREVENT WHO'S,
INSURRECTIONS, POLITICAL
VIOLENCE, AND ELECTORAL
SABOTAGE.
>> THAT SEEMS LIKE AN IMPORTANT
SET OF CONCLUSIONS FOR
EVERYBODY TO GET A HOLD OF.
IT IS NOT LOST ON ANYONE THAT
DONALD TRUMP IS SUPPOSED TO
TESTIFY TO THE COMMITTEE NEXT
MONDAY.
IS IT YOUR EXPECTATION THAT HE
WILL TESTIFY?
DO YOU INTEND TO HOLD HIM IN
CONTEMPT OF CONGRESS IF HE
DOESN'T?
>> I DO WANT TO GET TO THOSE
HYPOTHETICALS.
ONE WOULD THINK THAT A GUY WHO,
YOU KNOW, BRAGS ON THE SOCIAL
MEDIA.
RIDES THAT HIS RALLIES ABOUT
EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS.
HE'S ALREADY FLOATING MASS
PARDONS FOR PEOPLE WHO WERE
CONVICTED OF SEDITIOUS
CONSPIRACY, I'VE CONSPIRACY TO
INTERFERE WITH THE FEDERAL
PROCEEDING.
WHAT COME FORWARD, AS A FORMER
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA, TO TESTIFY.
BUT WHY HE FEELS THAT WAY.
AND WE'VE HAD MORE THAN 1000
PEOPLE COME FORWARD.
IT JUST A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE,
DIRECTLY, AROUND HIM WHO THINK
THAT SOMEHOW THEY'RE ABOVE THE
LAW.
THEY THINK OF THE STATE PENDING
CASE THAT THEY ARE NOT.
AND WHAT IS GOING TO SUBPOENA
TO TESTIFY.
THEY HAVE A LEGAL OBLIGATION TO
DO IT.
AND IF NOT, THE ACTING CONTEMPT
OF CONGRESS SUPPORT.
>> TRUMP IS ALSO DANGLING OUTS,
AS RECENTLY AS A FEW HOURS AGO.
THIS IDEA HE'S GOING TO
ANNOUNCE ITS CANDIDACY FOR THE
PRESIDENCY.
ON TUESDAY.
DOES THAT AFFECT THE WORK THAT
YOU DO?
HOW MUCH IS THAT IN YEAR --
HOW MUCH ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT
THAT?
HOW MUCH IS A CONCERN COMMITTEE
CONSIDERING THAT?
>> IT'S A LEGAL PROPOSITION.
OF COURSE, PURPOSELY --
IN TERMS OF CRIME COMMITTED.
IF YOU COMMIT A CRIME, WHETHER
IT IS INCITEMENT TO
INSURRECTION OR INTERFERENCE
WITH THE FEDERAL PROCEEDING.
WHERE SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY.
OR MURDER, OR THEFT, OR
WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE.
THE FACT THAT YOU'RE GOING TO
RUN FOR ANOTHER OFFICE DOES NOT
SOMEHOW IMMUNIZE YOU FROM A PROSECUTION.
PROSECUTION.
With UnitedHealthcare
IMMUNIZE YOU FROM PEOPLE SHOULD
DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD CAN GO
OUT COMMIT A CRIME, ROBIN BANK,
THEY DECLARE THE RUNNING FOR
STATE COUNCIL AND IT COULD BE
OKAY.
IT DOESN'T WORK THAT LIKE THAT.
I THINK IT IS A BROTHER PUNT
FROM A LEGAL PERSPECTIVE.
FROM A POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE,
OBVIOUSLY, WE'RE CONCERNED.
BECAUSE WE THINK THAT OUR
CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY IS
UNDER ATTACK.
BY'S PEOPLE.
AND THE POLITICAL SCIENTISTS
TELL US THAT THE FEATURES OF
THE AUTHORITARIAN POLITICAL
PARTY ARE THAT THEY DON'T
ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF
DEMOCRATIC ELECTION.
WE EMBRACE POLITICAL VIOLENCE
AND WE OPERATE AS A CULT OF
AUTHORITARIAN PERSONALITY.
WHERE WRITING IMPEACHMENT PARTY
I WAS TELLING ALL THIS AS I CAN
TALK TO.
THAT'S JUST FOR THE COUNTRY, IF
YOU DO FOR THE CONSTITUTION, WE
HAVE TO DO FOR POLITICAL
PARTIES BECAUSE HE WILL DESTROY
YOUR POLITICAL PARTY.
>> I THINK TO BEGIN TO SEE A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT IN TERMS
OF THE REFERENDUM THAT IS
EFFECTIVELY AND TRUMPISM THAT
HAPPENED ON TUESDAY.
AS THE PUBLIC HAS BEEN FOCUSED
ON THE MIDTERM, THE COMMITTEE
HAS NOT STOPPED WORKING.
IN PARTICULAR, YOU GUYS HAVE
BEEN INTERVIEWING MEMBERS OF
THE SECRET SERVICE.
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED ON JANUARY
6TH.
WE KNOW FROM PUBLIC REPORTING
THAT YOU'VE INTERVIEWED THE
DRIVER OF THE PRESIDENTS SUV ON
JANUARY 6TH.
DOES ANYTHING THAT YOU HAVE
HEARD IN THAT, IN THAT
TESTIMONY.
CONFLICT FROM WHAT WE'VE HEARD
FROM CAT CASSIDY HUTCHINSON AND
HER ACCOUNT OF THE EVENT?
>> I DON'T TALK ABOUT THE D TO
THE SPECIFIC PEOPLE TESTIMONY
BUT I WILL TELL YOU THAT
NOTHING I'VE SEEN ANYWHERE IN
THIS PROCESS CONTRADICTS
CASSIDY HUTCHINSON'S ACCOUNTS
IN ANY WAY THAT UNDERMINES MY
CONFIDENCE IN HER TESTIMONY.
AND THE ACCURACY OF WHAT SHE
WAS REPORTING.
VICE PRESIDENT PENCE, AND HIS
OP-ED THAT WAS PUBLISHED TODAY
BASICALLY RECOUNTS THE EPISODE
OF BEING TAKEN DOWN BY THE
SECRET SERVICE INTO AN
UNDISCLOSED LOCATION IN A
PARKING GARAGE.
REPEATING, I'M NOT GETTING IN
THAT CAR.
AND STATING THAT IS WHAT HE
SAID.
WE SHOULD BE OUR SIXTH MOST
CHILLING WORDS OF CERTAIN STEPS
OUT, IF NOT ALL OF AMERICAN
HISTORY.
HE KNEW THAT HE FOOLS TAKEN
AWAY THERE WAS GONNA BE AN
EFFORT TO STAGE A COUP AND TO
CONTINUE WITH THE TRUMP'S
EFFORT TO STEAL THE ELECTION ON
THE FLOOR.
HE SAID HE'S NOT GETTING THE
CAR AND STEAL FOR COLLEGE VOTES
WERE COUNTED.
SO, TO MY MIND, VICE PRESIDENT
WHO SHOWED, FOR MOST POINTS OF
TRUMP'S PRESIDENCY NOTHING
OTHER THAN INVERTEBRATE SICK
OFFENSIVELY.
ON THAT DAY, EARNED HIS SALARY
AND DEMONSTRATE HIMSELF TO BE A
CONSTITUTIONAL PATIENT ON THAT
DAY.
>> IN THE OP-ED IT'S, NEXT UP
FROM HIS BOOK, HE EFFECTIVELY
COOPERATED THERE IS A PRESSURE
CAME ON HIM TO NOT CERTIFY THE
ELECTION IN THE STATES.
>> I WAS HOLDING, TROUBLE
TRYING TO GET HIM TO STEP ASIDE
HIS CONSTITUTIONAL ROLE AND
JUST OBLITERATE AND VAPORIZE
