8:02 pm
you as house of representatives is holding at 2nd public hearing over last year's attack on capitol hill. members of a slight committee investigating the january safe insurrection on focusing on former president donald trump's false claims of election fraud. the committee was supposed to hear from trump's former campaign manager, but bill steppin declared he could not testify due to a family emergency. let's speak now to hijack castro. she's been following the hearing apps, the capitol hill, and how you, what we learned today at the 2nd installment laura. today's mission, if you will, of this 2nd public hearing was to show the american public that trump knowingly knew that he had lost the election and get spread. the lie that the election was still one any way. they did that by placing viewers directly inside the white house on election night 2020, and played video tape testimony of trump close advisors,
8:03 pm
and his daughter, ivana trump, and how they describe that that night as it unfolds the disappointment, they felt as the result came in showing that trump likely would not prevail and they advise trump should not make a public statement. however, he ignore that advice. and according to the witnesses instead turned to rudy giuliani, who they say was drunk at the time and was advised to make a statement and declared that he had won despite all the evidence to the contrary. and that is exactly what from did on election night. we also heard from live witnesses of election officials as former us attorney, in the philadelphia city commissioner, who investigated thoroughly some of the more notable claims of voter fraud that trump surrogates were spreading and found that they were all merit lists. and those 2, as well as other election official, k,
8:04 pm
the political consequences are not caving to the pressure that they were feeling coming directly from trump. in fact, there was 62 legal cases that were filed by trump and his supporters trying to overturn the result trying to find election brought in only. and in 61 of those 62 cases, the judges ruled against trump false claims. and one judge writing his damning assessment of the arguments from trump saying that they were fundamental and the obvious mistreating of the constitution. yet as a committee is laying out, the former president went on to so this misinformation and while. 8 on his supporters leading to the violence we saw here on january 6, isaac castro, bringing place lines that from capital l. thanks very much, heidi. well, let's bring in steve clemens. now. he has the bottom line here on out there and his founding at the, at lodge at the digital media platform center for joins as far as skype from
8:05 pm
washington d. c. and see what was your main take away from this hearing. my main takeaway was that everyone in trump land around president trump saw the same results. many of us outside trump land saw that it was not as big a disconnect between those working for him at the very foundation of the trump republican establishment. they saw that he didn't win either, and they told him this in many, many, many different tracks, different people in personnel, but to out his network of his advisors. and people who had been appointed to positions of responsibility and authority. like attorney general william bar and even his own daughter were very much tuned in with the reality that president trump did not win this election. and so anyway, nonetheless, on the basis of,
8:06 pm
of where he wants to go personally and perhaps with the advice of former new york governor new york city, mayor rudy giuliani, they decided to conjure an alternative and go forward. so it really strikes me of how much the trump supportive establishment at that time was trying to counsel him that he was creating and living in a fiction. this is the 2nd of 6 hearings over the coming 2 weeks. what are we expecting to happen next? what would it, what impresses me thus far with the process they're going through is they're laying down a legal argument that president trump was not uninformed, not diluted. but this was a purposeful directed attempt to hijack power from the person. the people who had won the election and that they're laying down the fact that if trump land
8:07 pm
knew that he had lost the election that they've been went out to raise an awful lot of money from americans who wanted a different outcome. and then based on that to try to create an alternate efficient . and as we know, this led to the convening of a lot of people out on the national mall. who me then instructed to go a centrally raid and invade the united states capital in attack for legislative branch of government. so you sort of see the sequence that they're putting forward . and i think they're being very careful to mostly use voices in this and testimony that are not trump critics, but trump spans, and trump advocates and people that were tied to that franchise. so they're trying to create an alternative there. and as i mentioned earlier to you, i think that they are laying down a legal argument. we'll see what the legal repercussions may be at the end of this process. but that's what they're doing. they've cummins and great speak to, thanks very much for joining us. there i see him now the case court of appeal has
8:08 pm
rejected a request to hold a plan, deportation of a group of migrants to wander charities. and the trade union had asked the court to block the 1st flight, which is scheduled to leave on tuesday. on friday, the high court ruled in favor of the flight saying the la galaxy of the u. k. government scheme will be tested at a separate hearing. next month, nothing baba has more from outside the high court in london as to whether it's going to take off the home office or interesting, but it will as long as there is even one person on board. but right now we don't know whether that will be anybody on board that flight scheduled for tuesday evening, local time to take off for t golly, that's because since friday, in fact, over the last few days, therapy, an individual challenges by lawyers representing claimants who are in detention who been sent letters telling them that that be put on a plane to rwanda. those challenges have been successful. so just
8:09 pm
a couple of hours ago. catholic kelly, one of the groups that were bringing this appeal against the injunction being refused. they said it was down to a list of people still on the flight. now the home office in the last few hours have been briefing the press here that they actually expect most, if not all of the people still on the list to be taken off. but because of things like the fact that people are survivors of torture has been brought up. that the home office hasn't fully considered what could happen to people if they are sent to rwanda and then process for asylum in rule under is rejected. for example, according to the you and hcr through that lawyer here in court today, it's very possible that refugees from the middle east would actually be sent back home to countries like syria. at least 50 people have been killed in the tack on
