are we starting to see a merrick garland legacy take shape? has enough time past for you to offer your own judgment as to what happened with merrick garland's time as attorney general? >> unfortunately for merrick garland, people's perception will shape his legacy, whether he took too long on the donald trump issues, whether he made a big mistake by appointing these republicans to do the investigation, including the hunter biden investigation. merrick garland has done a lot to try to repair the justice department and has succeeded. there is movement on the civil rights section, he brought back to normalcy, no one will criticize him for being partisan. the problem is, in meeting so far backwards, it has become a partisan problem which has hurt his legacy. >> but that is exactly what republicans have done. they have called him a partisan. over and over again. donald trump calls him a partisan. he says the justice department is westernized against him, not true, but it shows that merrick garland had this naove belief that, if he acted to bend ove

are you frustrated with merrick garland? >> not at all. i mean, i think merrick garland has done yeoman's work since he's been there maintaining the independence of the attorney general's office and the department of justice. i can understand joe biden's frustrations, especially when you have someone who talks about whether or not you can remember the death of your child, and when your child passed away. that seems to be a little below the belt. if you want to talk about kristin clark and the doj civil rights department, if you want to talk about many of the efforts this department has made in juscomplete 180 from the justice department that you remember jeff sessions and -- and what's the guy's name who was there for like 12 minutes? i can't recall him. and you just remember the revolving door of individuals who was at the department of justice. merrick garland should be on the united states supreme court. he's beyond reproach. he's doing his job. many people will argue he should have done this -- this way or this that way. but in four we

politico, white house frustration with merrick garland grows.sident said merrick garland did not do enough stating the president had diminished faculties, as white house frustration with head of doj grows and put part of the blame on garland, who they say should have demanded edits to hur's report. most of the president's advisors do not believe the attorney general will remain in his post for a second term. that sounds like the president's personal lawyer. >> emily: let's x and o's this. the president from two years ago sounded lucid and he pledged he would have administration marked by transparency. same administration called hur report a political smear job and he's angry at the attorney general for not doing enough to reign in the report and not demanding adits? irony is his rage is alive and well and disheartening part for me, his range is selective. how dare the american people ask about mental acuity and demand tr transparency. he does not care about who is coming across the border and do you care about the spill in ohio? dare to ask him

think about merrick garland. him in your mind for a moment. allowing the not potential nominee, but the actual nominee of the republican party to go to trial before the election? >> well, i will not say what merrick garland will or will not do. i will say this, it will be very, very, very, very difficult for anyone in any position of power to not feel some heat from a whole lot of americans that are going to say, i want the ability to see, know and understand what a jury of donald trump's peers think about the evidence that he actually engaged in probably one of the most devastating things we have seen in our democracy, certainly in our life times. and so the pressure on that alone would be quite significant. i can just imagine the level of protesting that we might see on the capitol. but we have -- paul and i were talking in the green room. we have to worry about that in both ways because we have seen the violence and the threats and the danger and the dread that has been created by the way in which donald trump

i think there wasn't much that garland can do. garland has been very cautious for that exact reason on many different issues given that this is all unfolding in the middle of a campaign, and the two investigations involve the two candidates. >> thank you so much. good to see you. >> thank you. >>> still ahead, new cnn exclusive reporting. officials from the biden administration are running drills to prepare for potential threats to the 2024 election. what they are fighting against. not all christian mccaffrey's are the same. some are all-pro running backs. some aren't. i'm christian mccaffrey and i make tacos. just like not all internet providers are the same. don't settle for slow. yikes. or unreliable. that's going to leave a mark. or weak. get real deal speed, reliability and power with xfinity. hey, you okay? i'm gonna pass out if that's alright. get the real deal, get xfinity. >>> to a cnn exclusive. officials from the biden administration are running drills to prepare for potential threats to the 2024 election. they are real

why would somebody as partisan as merrick garland? i suspect he's more leaning on team obama and this is a ware way to push joe bind out and he's not willing to go quietly. we'll see what happens and that's definitely. will: feels like the beginning of the end. rachel: feels like it's the beginning of the rug being pulled out from under him. he's not in control of all the information that he used to be. joey: people won't care if they do it correctly at the convention or smoothly and they've gone without a line of primary opponents and a line without him being on the ballot in some states because of the strategy they employed on when the actual primaries or caucuses happened. i think we live in a time where it's expected to be norms and why things are the way they are. people are outraged if they go to the convention in the right figure or obama escambia figure and speaking so well and going under the tent of the democratic party and if someone like that and maybe it is gavin newsom arises and i don't think there would be outrage. rac

howie: garland saving biden from the lawyers.ter saying it wasn't that he just willfully obtained classified documents but not enough evidence to charge him and nothing going over too well with the pressocore. turning to the key witness, a key witness in the republican impeachment probe of joe biden. fbi informant alexander s, many ir -- smirnoff has been indicted and the story deserves more coverage. what do you think? >> i think so. there was someone during the mueller investigation as well convicted of something very similar contributing to the steel dossier and was acquitted but there's some pair hells in that maybe the -- parallels in that maybe the basis of the cores of the biden family built on lies and i don't think the biden impeachment is undermining the one fact and so many additional -- so much additional evidence was gathered and this is the blow to the credibility of the allegations against the biden family. howie: i wouldn't say completely undermined but the indictment told smirnoff and burisma and energy giant and

so he presents this to merrick garland, and so the question is, what does merrick garland then do?ore it was released to the public. >> but i am pretty confident that had he edited out the groo gratuitous references to biden or his observations of biden and his acuity, had he idited that out, it would have leaked. the story then would have been that merrick garland, you know, edited out all of this damaging stuff about joe biden and is covering it up. and so i think he was kind of dammed if he did and dammed if he didn't in that situation. special prosecutors, we give them a lot of license, and this special prosecutor abused that license in an explicitly political way. >> well, again, adrienne, he knew exactly what was going to happen, just like james comey knew exactly what was going to happen in july of 20 when he held that press conference. just like james comey knew exactly what was going to hapten days before when he wrote a letter. there were a thousand different ways he could have written that letter, to not actually impact the outcome of the election. let voters just decide

, don't release the report and merrick garland did.political question is it that president biden actually likes this, gets off the hook with the charges of the documents or is it that somebody else is pulling the strings, obama saying release this so we can pull the rug out from under president biden and get somebody else in. this is what bill maher is talking about that somebody else could replace president biden. >> did not run on a promise not to run again but a big hint. he said i see myself as a bridge that is collapsing. i see myself as a bridge. i read that as one term. the question, is it too late? i don't think it is. i think people said to me that is ridiculous. they would be thrilled if they did it the day before the election. you could switch at the convention and to say health issue or whatever or if the guy says i cannot run, has to be somebody else. and open convention. we had open conventions many times. will: i don't think there is any pleasure in the biden administration about the exculpatory nature of his being menta

in other words, herr did exactly what bill barr did, and merrick garland let him. and then, there's the contrast. in biden's case. he didn't attempt to withhold classified documents from their rightful owner, namely the federal government. with trump, it's the opposite. and it's not just that trump took classified documents, which he did, or that he refused to turn them over to the government, which he wouldn't. he also directed his staff to hide those documents and then to destroy the evident of those acts. add to that, he lied to his own lawyers about the documents putting them in legal jeopardy for then lying to the government. while trump was rightfy indicted for his actions, there's still a question of whether he may be able to riggle out of any accountability given the trump appointed judge assigned to the case, aileen cannon, has been slow walking bringing the case to trial. yesterday, judge cannon was called out by special counsel jack smith for making a, quote, clear error in the case that could reveal the identities of potential witnesses and expose them

what's interesting in this letter that i read is i think what you are doing is forcing ag garland to make a choice. president biden needs to be charged or he needs to be removed. there is no middle ground. a lot of americans looking at this feel that is what they did, they went down the middle road which there isn't much of. it is less about the 25th amendment and more about putting garland between a rock and a hard place. >> they are trying to have your cake and eat it too, you can't split the baby, they want to not prosecute president biden even though the special counsel states explicitly that he violated, mishandled classified information which is a felony and did it for decades and didn't have the immunities when this was going on but we won't charge him because he's an elderly man who is forgetful. that is not a reason not to charge. that's abusive process or malicious prosecution or failure to prosecute and say we will prosecute donald trump because although he has mental acuity we don't like his personality. you have to make a binary choice and it was cute to make this argume

there have been, also, some simmering frustrations about merrick garland. i should note, that is a topic that white house officials, white house advisers are incredibly careful to avoid talking about publicly, but even the decision that merrick garland made to appoint robert hur, this person who had served senior roles in the trump administration, there was some thought that even that decision was a way for merrick garland to be extra cautious politically. and this is something that the bob bauer statement gets out, as well. this idea that when you are investigating someone like the president, someone in his position, that everybody expects that there is going to be outsized attention and this sort of scrutiny that comes with the investigation. but he is making clear that because of those political pressures, they ended up flouting what, again, he calls norms that they should adhere to. it says they should not have violated well-established department norms, and essentially trashing the subject of an investigation. this is something he has siding from a for

garland before that report was released.ject to the denigrating statements about biden's memory which violate the long-standing doj practice and policy. the associate deputy attorney general responded today later, writing, the identified language is neither gratuitous nor unduly prejudicial. it is offered to explain special counsel hur's conclusions about the president state of mind and possessing and retaining classified information. special counsel hur will get a chance to stay tell his side of the story, testifying publicly before the house judiciary committee on march 12th. joining me now, jennifer palmeri, co-host of msnbc how to win in 2024 podcast, in jim psaki, host of inside with jim psaki. a double threat of john tonight. ladies, thank you for being here. i'm gonna have to refer you as missaukee as miss palmeri. >> everyone in the obama white house called us psaki and palmy ari. >> they had a reason. sake, are you surprised, i mean, being a white house expert as you are, about the level of combativeness that is on

garland's not going to step in to stop that.hat the assistant attorney general is arguing is pretty surprising. >> i do wonder, jen, it sort of seems like hur is going to the hill, republicans have their knives out on this. they really want the transcript if not the audio of the interview releasedmism it seems to me a forgone conclusion this is going to come out. do you think we're going to be combing through hours of transcript in the near future, and if so how does the white house handle that, jen psaki? >> it sure feels like it, alex. we'll see what happens. and you know what they say about relationships, it's complicated because on the one hand if everybody in the country who was paying attention to this was as nerdy and had as much time and it was their job to do it like all of us and were actually going to comb through it, which we all will, it might serve the white house well. but the reality is that's probably not going to happen because people don't have time. small pieces of this will be pulled out. it's hard to make t

explained to me why this really is a moment of choosing from merrick garland. think he is capable of making the right choice because i think he has weaponized that departments. speak of the choice is this. you can possibly be joe biden -- at the same time, not capable of standing trial, and can still be president of the united states. it is one or the other. with a special counsel said is that he willfully retained classified documents, willfully disclosed 'em. that's a crime. the special counsel said "i can't charge him because he can't stand trial." then he should not be president. garland needs to either charge biden, prosecute him, or go to the cabinet under the 25th amendment and say "he can't be president, we need to remove him." that's the choice. you can't have it both ways. >> hannity: now, looking at that report, and just what you see with your own eyes, and we have played so many of these moments on this show, probably more than any other show, probably way ahead of the curve more than other people. i took a lot of heat in the beginning for pointing

he is calling on the attorney general, merrick garland, to take actionri i. now, the senator telling fox news digital foxnews.comtell that garland must either charge foxn invokent or the 25th amendment. meanwhile, the biden campaign haent.s a new strategy to prove judge young and hip by making tiktoks. >> now, despite the serious national securit y that have been raised about the chinese owned app, now keep in mind many federal employees, they have been banned from having tiktok on their government devices. employeebut joe, i guess he has that special relationship with the communist chinese friends at cfc. anyway, joining us now with more, missoure i senator josh hawley. senator, great to have you. i want to explain why thisar what you're saying here is is i critical because the special counsel's report said he willingl.y and knowingly kept these documents. the l that means he violated the law. there was no raid. there's noaw charges. there was, you know, no comparison to trump like in thea hillary clinton case. you know, i explainesed to me,is why this reall

rachel: we're hearing reports the president is frustrated with the attorney general, merrick garland,how he's handled that report. will: madeleine are rivera is here with the details. >> reporter: the white house is acutely aware of the damage this special counsel report could have on the president's re-election bid and and is ramping up their efforts toes discredit cop of the -- some of the findings about his age and memory. listen. >> i believe as a former prosecutor the comments that were made by that prosecutor, gratuitous, inaccurate and inappropriate. >> just the little part of what we get to see, he's made mistake after mistake after mistake after mistake after mistake on camera this week. >> i'm going to be very clear here, the reality is that report, that part of the report does not live in reality. it just doesn't. >> reporter: so the special counsel was lying about the president's memory. >> it is, it was gratuitous. >> reporter: if there is a person the white house is angrier at, it may be attorney general merrick garland. according to politico, joe biden has told aides th

as it is, because... don’t we have a lot of people who say: no, yes, here we are now, we ’ll hang a garlandoo early to celebrate the victory, succumbing to to the general conviction of people who, by and large, do not have a serious connection to this victory, well, yes, they hung a garland, they are great, but in my opinion. thinks that our people have a very short memory, and no one remembers where they were on february 24, 2022, and where they were in may 2022, where they were in the very difficult autumn of 2022, it seems to me that we need to very look closely at these... a real legend is immediately visible, it is almost impossible to touch, but not for you, this is your legendary credit card alfabank. order a free credit card with a whole year without interest and receive a supercake in rubles every month, and also withdraw cash for free from any atm. not just profitable, alpha profitable. how do you like it, are we going on vacation? class, and we are going for the third year, and we haven’t started saving, so open a vtb savings account, insert. accumulate 16% faster and transfer yo

be screaming justifiably and garland opened the call to publicize it. crisis. this will be a crisis of confidence and not going to go away. what this spokesman said today the stuff they like and praise and shouldn't matter and last night it was a disaster and press conference today was a disaster. >> it was a disasser and the reason why they put it on and how to explain why they weren't going to charge him. the special council did it willfully and jury looking at joe biden just said oh, no, that's not going on and we can't charge him. they think he committed the crime and think he willfully committed the crime and just don't think they can get a commission. that's why they put it in there. larry: not discrediting herr that's kind of crazy. steve forbes, is biden's candidacy dead? here's the theory and democratic big wigs and making a fool of themselves and this would tighten the noose around his neck and go ahead rid of them and democratic establishment wants to get rid of joe biden is they're encouraging him to do all the things he's doing. >> really?

we had 88 days left. >> so, does merrick garland let jack smith prosecute his case?absolutely will press through jack smith to get the case resolved as soon as possible. i think there's an argument that given intervening events, she could truncate the 88 days. that's not law of the case. she doesn't have to give him a full seven months. she could say, given the amount of time that has passed, the parties have had a large, fulsome opportunity to review all of the discovery, we're going to give you a shorter time frame between the supreme court resolution and a trial date. there's no question that though whenever this happens, whether there's a decision in may or on july 1st, it's bumping up closer and closer to the election. the department of justice policy is you don't take any kind of investigative action within a reasonable period of the election. >> 60 days. >> it's been interpreted to be 60 days, it's not in the manual, it's a reasonable period. >> neither is not prosecuting a president. >> we're in new territory here. but the justice department will keep pressin

attorney general garland first received and started to read the hur report on monday. he submitted it with no redactions to the public. defenders of the president say that they wish garland spiked some of the language in the report, calling the president's memory into question. >> i think that there's a logic for that i would want to go back to look at the statute to see, you know, whether that's a viable strategy. but, that makes sense. >> had garland made one redaction or asked for one word to be changed, he would have had to have explained that to congress. he left the report as is. he did the same for the john durham report. that special counsel report last year. robert hur also under fire from democrats for including information about the president's cognitive abilities. hur is a former u.s. attorney in maryland appointed by then president donald trump. democrats say that hur crossed the line in this report. >> i agree with president biden's reaction. that was just totally out of bounds. >> hur is also facing pressure from republicans to release the transcript of

they wanted to fill it anyway, but merrick garland, when merrick garland did, he didn't get it. my my point being, i i'm doing this all live here. my point being that mitch mcconnell really helped donald trump fill at least one, if not two, of those seats under circumstances, the democrats really hated democrats really hated. >> he also helped with kevin all too though when his, his nomination was on the brink, i mean, they helped hold it and make sure that he did not withdraw his nomination and he obviously, in the moments we have special coverage anyway, it's just a remarkable to look at the big picture, what the day of that he's know i take your point. my point is and instead of disparaging mitch mcconnell, donald trump should be sending him a muffin mascot. >> and i don't even think he's commented on the fact that he's stepping down from republics i mean, the supreme court, which has been shaped by mitch mcconnell, just did donald trump a huge failure. yet i don't know. they would have done had merrick garland been on that court, as democrats think he should have been in any

>> i think merrick garland is a person of integrity. i don't think he should be undermined. it's common for people to have different cabinet members, but this is not the time to do it. i do think the special counsel's gratuitous mention of beau biden. but to talk about someone's dead son and to put that in. what is this country coming to that we're politicizing that? people have grief and they deal with that differently. some people remember the exact dates, some people block it out. that was totally uncalled for. >> it is actually interesting that you bring that up because a very conservative woman that i know, a gold star mom, who is not a biden supporter, asked me for robert hur's e-mail because she was so infuriated by that even though again, she doesn't like biden. stick around, trump is distracting from biden's challenges. we'll talk about that next. not all christian mccaffrey's are the same. some are all-pro running backs. some aren't. i'm christian mccaffrey and i make tacos. just like not all internet providers are the same. don't settle for slow. yikes. or unrelia

i thought that it was good that we do not have merit garland on the bench. nobody knows what the ultimate result there be. but it has become politicized in a way that we did not see when dwight eisenhower was president. certainly, that includes nominees proposed by joe biden. as far as sticking to the subject, i feels very strongly that longevity of service, in and of itself suggests that mitch mcconnell certainly did a few things that perpetuated his continued existence in that station. i do not look to him as a shining light that will -- we will forever remember, but as far as his ability to work with both sides, to the extent that he could, it was a very difficult role of the dice. he deserves significant credit for that. it is time to move on. host: robert, who should replace him? caller: well, that is a great question. i have not thought about that difficultly, but if -- it would be somebody who had the ability to compromise without prostituting themselves to the party's wishes. if i had to pick, as a placeholder, someone like forename would be acceptab

he was appointed by attorney general merrick garland in 2020 three to investigate biden's documents. he conducted an investigation over a course of a year, interviewing president biden himself, and dozens of other witnesses. to conduct this -- to produce this sprawling report into president biden's handling of classified documents. host: in what kind of classified information to the president have with him? guest: the report found that the bulk of the documents found fall into two categories. two types of classified materials. the first were documents relating to military and foreign policy in afghanistan, when former president was vice president with former president barack obama. in the second type of classified documents that were kind of found in the report were no books that president biden used throughout his presidency, which included a combination of personal notes he had taken, meeting notes, and other writings. host: and how confidential -- i mean, how sensitive were these documents to national security? guest: yeah, so, robert hur wrote in the report that he thought that -

i don't get why -- >> you beat me to the punch in reminding he was merrick garland's appointee, not as if donald trump was the one who decided here's the guy to look into joe biden. >> right. i think merrick garland is a man consumed with easing the washington centrists, or pleasing the cosmos club people. i have no idea. why he picked this guy, i have no earthly idea. as far as i knew, democrats practice law in washington. why is it that out of 15 special counsels, 14 are republicans? and the come medic loved that. i just do not understand. >> so speaking of chiseling in marble, we want you to live a long life, but some day the e epitaph is it's the economy, stupid, the words james carville is known. economies ebb and flows and gets better and age comes for us all. if you're running the campaign, what do you do? do you put him out more? put him out less? how the hell do you handle this? >> don't accept a super bowl interview. your polling averaging, three points down in a two-way, the biggest television audience, not even close and you get a chance to do a 20, 25 minute interview on t

garland has said he's ok with special counsels going to testify on the hill. so i would imagine there will be a lot of lawmakers who have questions for all these different gentlemen up there, including robert hur and you heard the president talk about blaming his staff, ian sams said some things that don't necessarily line up with what's in the report. they will hear from robert hur himself. he will clarify on a lot of these issues. he will tell us exactly what he thinks the president did and didn't do with mishandling documents, where they were, whether it was staff involved or whether this was, you know, actually trails back to the president and the buck stops with him. so we are going to get to hear probably from robert hur, at least according to what the attorney general is telling us, and everybody on the hill will look forward to that. >> sandra: shannon, thank you. general kellogg, you are also here. this brings up concerns over national security. where do your concerns lie and what you just heard. >> look, a huge difference between what president trump

>> well theoretically, merrick garland would be giving jack smith a lot of discretion here. but the attorney general does have the oversight over jack smith because he's still working within doj guidelines and such garland obviously has been very reluctant to take any kind of steps. i think he's been a little bit too timid about things. however, i will say i wouldn't be surprised were he to have a meeting and they're that close to the election that he might actually put his finger on the scale, thumb on the scale at that point and say, this is too close it looks to partisan. you're right, it does not actually run afoul of that doj policy because the charges already started. but i wouldn't be surprised to see garland's sort of like wake up and actually do something there isn't a judge tanya chutkan know who really has almost complete control over the timing of the trial it is. >> and garland said that before that's kind of out of the doj's hands. it's up to her however, obviously, were the prosecution to follow motion with the judge and say, we want to pause this until after

>> i think merrick garland is a person of integrity. i think it's common for a second term for people to have different cabinet members. this is not the time to do it. the gratuitous mention of beau biden, whatever you think of the rest, but to talk about someone's dead son, to put that in, what does this country come to that we're politicizing that. people deal with that differently. some people remember the exact dates, some people block it out. that was totally uncalled for. >> it's actually interesting you bring that up because a very conservative woman i know, a gold star mom who is not a biden supporter, asked me for robert hur's email because she was so infuriated by that even though she doesn't like biden, she thought that was so gratuitous. >>> stick around, trump is ending up distracting from biden's challenges. we're going to talk about that next. growing up, my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer. those are good careers! but i chose a different path. first, as mayor and then in the legislature. i enshrined ab

hur, they are attacking merrick garland. okay. come on, man.ean, if you are so easily manipulated, maybe it's time to go into another line of work. these are classic enabling behaviors. there are a lot though of enablers out there i don't want to single out anyone. including the gallon camera loopiness has also worried democrat leaders. >> what i saw of that report last night, i believe is, as a former prosecutor, um, the comments that were made by that prosecutor gratuitous, inaccurate. and inappropriate. >> laura: inaccurate? well, as a former prosecutor, madam vice president, you should know that you just opened the door to the obvious rejoinder. if the special counsel's quotes of biden are inaccurate, then release the audiotapes of the interviews. oh, yeah. release the tapes. even jake tapper raised that point. >> one big question for the coming weeks is whether any transcript or audio of the president's interview with the special counsel could be released. >> yeah, sure. i mean, if they think special counsel hur is unfairly portraying thes

merrick garland just in us to special counsel probe into joe biden's classified documents scandal isete. what is in the report and why is the biden family scared to death about this report? we will tell you next. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> sean: we have big news out of washington where the attorney general, merrick garland says the special counsel investigating joe biden's alleged mishandling of classified information, where they have completed their work and the white house is not reviewing the report to see if it wants to exert executive privilege over any part of that. and once that project is that the report will be released to congress and to we the people the public. we are hearing that could happen by the end of the week. now, apparently there is something that team biden is very afraid of. axios reporting that biden's aides believe the report will include embarrassing details and photos and be "politically damaging." with the evidence there's the evidence be more damning than when we have already seen? you might remember this further. there you go. anyway, showing those documents, top-se

is the biden administration and campaign mad at robert hur or merrick garland, the attorney general?ink both. the pressure is increasing not only on merrick garland from both sides of the aisle for appointing hur. robert hur continues to see increasing pressure from republicans and democrats for different reasons. as you mentioned republicans want this transcript to be released. the interview with the president happened this past october at the white house. it was part of a two-day period about five hours total. robert hur actually in the room sitting across from president biden and counsel that was right there at that time. it was transcribed and also recorded on tape. fox news is told while hur's office is not specifically commenting, it is unlikely that hur will release the transcript via a source familiar. however, it doesn't mean biden world won't in some form. >> it was a pretty surprising that the special counsel would state the obvious in writing that joe biden's mental capacity is diminished. we see that play out on a daily basis. >> bill: hur is also under fire from democra

they can offer contempt citation, refer it to merrick garland and merrick garland is going to sit onu this, and jewish students are in fear of their safety on the campus. one final point. harvard receives hundreds of millions of dollars from the federal government because of the civil rights act. and every jewish student, black student, white student, protected under title 6 from the university receiving federal funds. jewish students are not being protected at harvard or some of these other universities, jacqui. it's a straight arrow of the story. >> jacqui: donors are paying attention and the committee is paying attention, stefanik says after failing to take quick action, harvard's leadership has not addressed the anti-antisemitic hate. you would assume that the university would want people to believe that it's a safe place for jewish students to go. just one more question. is there any chance that what they have not turned over yet in your mind maybe would reveal something that they don't want to be out there, and that's why they are dragging their feet? >> let me think about that

the letter asks garland to produce the information by next monday. house republican leadership has leaned into the report since it was released last week despite pressing no charges against biden, the special counsel robert hur used the report to overtly question the president's mental state. the gop-led committees are also in talks with hur to testify about this investigation. the white house did not immediately respond to an nbc news request for comment. i reported over the weekend, though, their frustrations with garland have grown. they feel like he should have had better control over the special counsel process, and the president himself has been personally upset over the handling of the investigation into hunter bide squn january 6th as well. joining us now national politics reporter for bloomberg. good morning, stephanie, we really appreciate you joining us this morning. there's an extraordinary amount of hypocrisy on display here. house republican leadership rereading a statement last week. so this is the republicans going after joe biden and

do you think attorney general merrick garland would've done something differently here? could he have? >> he could have, he could've pointed to someone else, he could've pointed at a different special counsel -- really bent over backwards to do the right thing, to withdraw the department from the terrible reputation it had under trump of being politicized and tragically, edthat requires you to anticipate a certain amount of professionalism and faith in the system and faith in the people who were appointed, and of course that confidence, that expectation was completely betrayed here. completely betrayed. and so in hindsight, it's too easy to say he should've just appointed someone. he heknew it would be more impartial, but ideally you appoint a prosecutor that will improve public confidence in the report, you don't expect them to be a hack, and in this case, we misjudged mr. her. >> congressman adam schiff, i always appreciate your broad ro range of expertise, and really, thank you for joining me this afternoon. coming up, will the supreme court rule for donald trump on t

merrick garland must resign today. >> merrick garland had one job. that job was to justify not charging joe biden and justify charging donald trump. we don't agree with the analysis the department of justice has been using, but that was the one job. it tells you how close a call this came with joe biden, that they had to rely on something that was going to also be damaging but really was their only card they could play was we don't think he is competent to stand trial. and if that's -- and the reason for that is it all goes back to they had plenty of evidence to bring this case and they had justification to bring it since they brought one against -- very similar against president trump. >> harris: do you think it is a pass? if he can't stand being indicted, how in the world is he allowed to stand being a commande commander-in-chief? how is that allowed to happen but they can't indict him? that feels like a pass. why can't they go for it? there are a lot of people who can't remember things and still end up in court. >> harris, i have never seen a pros

that's apparently part of the reason merrick garland sat on his hands for lack of a better metaphor in the early days of the biden administration. the other thing he's done that's been remarkably effective is to suggest pex aditing these trials, getting a verdict whether guilty or innocent is somehowil partisan. that idea has really seeped into the ground water here, and it sort of feels like even the judges are e buying it. judge cannon down in florida reallynn seems to be slow walki this. i think the definitive piece on aileen cannon and her experience and it feels like she's towing the trump line on this. >> thetr problem she has is whe this all started and it came out he was under investigation for the documents she made these rulings that legal experts and judges both looked at and said made no sense related to what thens government can do with th evidence that they took from donald trump's -- from mar-a-lago. and out of all the judges that could have gottenud the case, s now has the actual case, and she's someone as we detailed has extremely little experience, has a highly compli

merrick garland has not said that. however i think he may be thinking that.ing to do an interview he has a number of things he could complain about because joe biden has violated doj norms in the amount of times he has commented on ongoing investigations. >> john: jack goldsmith wrote president biden pledged to respect and restore the norm but has not done so, to the contrary, often violated it, more so than any other president, save, of course, the incomparable donald trump and biden and his aides to the perceived politization of the justice department. >> number of examples. joe biden commented i think in a cbs interview that trump's handling of classified documents, totally irresponsible, and putting aside his situation right now. >> john: including a document as a senator he was not supposed to have at all. >> that's right. but his doj and fbi were investigating trump when he was making comments on the investigation. as an attorney general, this is your boss, these are signals, messages. another one, he was urging his department of justice to prosecute ja

and you can only win one. >> i didn't mention the name merrick garland, i think jack smith took this up as quickly as he could. >> yes he did. >> two and a half years, that's gonna be the true question. >> all right, a recap of today's arguments and supreme court continues in just a moment. stay with us. >> if president trump were appointed to an office today, if he were appointed as a state judge, he could not hold that office, which shows that the disability exists now. the fact that the congress has a power to remove the disability doesn't negate the present qualification, nor does it implicitly bestow on president trump a constitutional right to run for offices that he cannot hold. ca. >> we've been told that if what colorado did here is sustain other states and retaliate, then they're going to potentially exclude another candidate from the ballot. what about that situation? >> your honor, i think we have to have faith in our system that people will follow their election processes appropriately, that they will take realistic views of what insurrection is under the 14th amendment.

that is why i sent this letter to merrick garland. we appreciate you highlighting this. this has become a long time and longtime embarrassing situation. everyone i talk to cringe is whenever we see joe biden on the tv, and he's struggling, he can't remember things, and it's also shocking what john yoo just pointed out that he's been mishandling classified documents for such a long period of time. and yet there's no decision to prosecute. so prosecutors have an ethical duty not to -- there should be equal justice under the law. you can't make distinctions because you don't like somebody's personality and you like someone else's who you work for. >> trace: you talk about the letter you wrote. he sent the letter, as you said, to the attorney general merrick garland and cabinet members invoking the 25th amendment. it reads in part, quoting here, "he most assuredly lacks the ability to execute his presidential responsibilities. accordingly, it is incumbent upon you to begin proceedings to remove the president pursuant to the 25th amendment of the united states constitution. p
