>> Neil: THANKS, BRET.
BRET BAIER, "SPECIAL REPORT."
HE’LL HAVE MORE IN TWO HOURS.
I WANT TO GO TO ALEX, A CRIMINAL
DEFENSE ATTORNEY.
YOU CAME AWAY FROM THIS AND
HEARING
HEARING CASSIDY HUTCHISON’S
TESTIMONY.
HOW MUCH OF THIS HAS CRIMINAL
IMPLICATIONS FOR THEFORMER
PRESIDENT IF TRUE?
>> A GOOD DEAL OF IT ALL.
SHE HAD SOME KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE
PRESIDENT’S KNOWLEDGE OF WEAPONS
IN THE CROWD AND HIS STATEMENT
DON’T WORRY ABOUT THAT, LET THEM
THROUGH.
IT SUGGESTED WHEN THERE’S LATER
VIOLENCE THAT HE WAS AWARE OF
THAT AND WILLING TO BE OKAY WITH
THAT RISK.
THE STEPS THAT HE TOOK ALLEGEDLY
IN THE BEAST ALSO SHOW A
PRESIDENT THAT WAS VERY, VERY
ADAMANT ABOUT GETTING TO THE
CAPITOL EVEN WHEN HIS ADVISERS
ADVISED HIM NOT TO WHEN TOLD
THAT IT COULD INCREASE THE
VIOLENCE.
THAT’S PROBLEMATIC.
THE DISCUSSIONS WHEN HE’S BACK
IN THE WHITE HOUSE WHEN SHE WAS
TESTIFYING ABOUT THE PRESIDENT
NOT CARING ABOUT THE FACT OF THE
CHANTS OF HANGING MIKE PENCE.
THAT IS DAMNING STUFF.
THE OTHER IS THE POTENTIAL
OBJECT INSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE
HERE.
THE TEXT MESSAGES THAT THIS
WITNESS RECEIVED ABOUT READING
THE TRANSCRIPTS, DO THE RIGHT
THING.
THAT’S CLASSIC OBSTRUCTION OF
JUSTICE.
THERE’S A WHOLE AVENUE OF
CRIMINAL CHARGES THERE THAT
HAVEN’T BEEN DISCUSSED.
>> Neil: WHAT I DISCOVERED WITH
EACH AND EVERY HEARING AND YOU
HAVE TO RELY ON THE PEOPLE
MAKING THE REMARKS, A LOT OF
PEOPLE WERE SEEKING A LOT OF
PARDONS.
THE NEWEST ADDITIONS, RUDY
GULIANI AND MARK MEADOWS
HIMSELF.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT?
IT’S A GROWING LIST OF VIRTUALLY
EVERY CONGRESSMAN WHO WAS
DISPUTING THE VALIDITY OF THE
ELECTION ITSELF AND THEIR MOVE
TO EITHER HAVE A BACKUP PLATE OF
ELECTORS THAT COULD DO THE
PRESIDENT’S BIDDING OR JUST TO
PROTEST THE ELECTION ITSELF.
>> IF I’M A PROSECUTOR AND
BUILDING A CASE, THAT SO MUCH
WILL BE FOCUSED ON THE STATE OF
MIND OF THESE INDIVIDUALS WHEN
THEY TAKE CERTAIN ACTIONS, DID
THEY KNOW WHAT THEY WERE DOING
WITH LEGAL, DID THEY HIT THE IT
WAS LEGITIMATE.
THE FACT THAT THEY’RE OPENLY
DISCUSSING THE PRESIDENT TO GIVE
THEM MARCH DONS OVER A PERIOD OF
TIME SUGGESTS THAT THEY KNEW IN
THEIR OWN MIND WHAT THEY WERE
DOING WAS IMPROPER.
IT WILL BE DAMNING EVIDENCE IF
THIS GETS TO A TRIAL.
>> Neil: IF YOU’RE FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP, ALEX AND YOU’RE
PRESIDENT TRUMP, ALEX AND YOU’RE
SAYING I KNOW THEY HAVE WEAPONS,
YOU CAN SAY I DON’T THINK
THEY’LL HARM ME.
THERE’S A WAY OF INTERPRETING
THAT I DON’T THINK THEY’RE GOING
TO DO MUCH HARM.
IF YOU’RE WORRYING ABOUT HARMING
ME AND YOU DON’T WANT TO BRING
ME TO THE CAPITOL TO ENDANGER
THE PRESIDENT’S SAFETY TO SAY
NOTHING OF THOSE MARCHING
TOWARDS THE HILL, IS THAT A
POSSIBLE OUT FOR THE PRESIDENT?
>> THAT’S CERTAINLY GOING TO BE
THE EXPLANATION OF FOLKS IN
TRUMP WORLD.
REALISTICALLY, YOU’RE THE
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
YOU OWE AND OATH TO EVERYONE
INCLUDING POLICE OFFICERS
REGARDING THE CAPITOL AND
INCLUDING PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDE
THAT ARE REPRESENTATIVE IN THAT
CAPITOL BUILDING.
IF YOU’RE OKAY WITH BEING A
GREATER RICK OF HARM BECAUSE THE
FOLKS HAVE GUNS AND MARCHING
TOWARD THE CAPITOL, THAT SHOWS A
BETRAYAL OF YOUR OATH AND GOES
IN LIKE WITH LIKE CONSPIRACY.
YOU CAN SAY HEY, I’M NOT WORRIED
ABOUT THEM HURTING ME BUT YOU
NEED TO BE WORRIED ABOUT THE
FOLKS IN THE CAPITOL BUILDING.
>> Neil: YOU HAVE TO GO BEYOND
HOW THIS LOOKS FOR YOU.
YOU’RE THE EXPERT ON LAW AND
POTENTIAL CRIMINALITY HERE.
AT A MINIMUM, THIS IS THE LEADER
OF THE FREE WORLD.
HE IS CLEARLY UNHINGED.
>> THAT’S WHY THAT MOMENT IN THE
LIMOUSINE, IF WE HERE
CORROBORATIONS, IT’S INTERESTING
IF WE HEAR FROM THE AGENTS.
HAS SOME OF ORDINARY STATEMENTS
BEEN SECURED OUTSIDE OF THIS
COMMITTEE PROCESS.
IT POSSIBLE.
IF YOU HAVE A PRESIDENT THAT HAS
BEEN TOLD DON’T GO TO THE
CAPITOL, IT WILL INFLAME THINGS
THAT HE’S LAYING HIS HAND ON
FOLKS MEANT TO PROTECT HIM, THAT
IS DAMNING EVIDENCE.
WHAT WAS IN THE PRESIDENT’S MIND
WAS TO GET TO THE CAPITOL AND
SUBVERT THE WILL OF THE VOTERS
