7:00 pm
you legal mind, what impacts do you think the hearings will have on the country. many of the people or most of people involved have faced the judge how or the legal system in some way. how do you think it will affect the court of public opinion once it happens and is playing out on television? >> i think it will be impactful in that the court of public opinion is the electorate. this is who it's for. people have to remember the legislative branch has a goal in mind of trying to prevent this from happening again. these are people who asked to lead from voters. what they have spent the better part of nearly two years or year and a half doing will be of paramount of importance. this has been a huge issue. i think congress would make a mistake to over estimate the attention span of the american ele
7:01 pm
electorate. we saw from the mueller report where the american people, say, okay, now what? tell me what you found. if they don't meet or exceed those expectations, it might be counter productive. >> the spinning of it by ag barr of the actual findings of the mueller report. when i was a kid, this was way before your time -- >> thank you. i'm much younger than you, so much. >> i like the hair toss. i remember my grandmother and my mom and dad watching the water gate hearings. i remember the president leaving the white house on a helicopter. it was unbelievable but back then, we only had three channels. now that we have so much, we have social kbmedia, hundreds o channels and the attention span of american public not what it was. >> are you still upset that you were the buone that had to chan
7:02 pm
the button, the little knob. >> we were fancy. we had the remote. you had to attach it to the tv. it had volume, up and down for the button and on and off and that was it. thank you, laura. >> thank you. i'm glad for the memory lane. i'll try to find that ka-chunk remote control as a birthday gift. this is don lemon tonight. okay. nearly a year and a half since the big lie exploded into deadly violence at the united states cap capitol, look at this. the committee wants to know more about a tour that republican congressman gave the day before pro-trump rioters storm the capitol. they want to know the purpose of that tour and they say they have evidence that directly
7:03 pm
contradicts previous claims by republicans that they were quote, there were no tours, no large groups. no one where maga hats on in the capitol before january 6th. the congressman says a constituent family with young children meeting with their member of congress in the house office buildings is not a suspicious group or reconnaissance tour. the family never entered the capitol building. that is happening as sources tell cnn the former attorney general bill barr has agreed to testify under oath behind closed doors. remember he said, month before the violence at the capitol there was no evidence of voter fraud that could have swung the election. there's still counting the votes in pennsylvania where the gop senate primary is looking more and more like it is headed for a recount. trump backed tv doc oz has a razor thin lead over dave mccormick. look at that. 1,084 votes ahead. that is razor thin.
7:04 pm
the former president, the author of the big lie is urging oz to just claim victory. throwing around more baseless claims of cheating. the big lie that is poisoning our democracy, becoming a permanent part of our elections. we have a lot more to come on all of this. we also have to talk about buffalo. that's where the suspect accused of the racist massacre that left ten people indicted by grand jury today in a packed courtroom. >> you're a coward. >> we'll talk to a woman who called 911 from the supermarket. she says the dispatcher hung up on her because she was whispering. straight now to cnn paula reed and evan perez. tell us about this january 6th committee wanting to talk to a law make who gave a tour. >> the january 6th committee is requesting that he voluntarily share information about a tour
7:05 pm
of the capitol complex he led the day before the insurrection. this is the first time they have named a specific lawmaker. republicans on a different committee of which he's a member claim to have reviewed the security footage from the days proceeding the january 6th attack and they determined there were no tours, no large groups and no one in maga hats. republicans have denied providing any such tours and he filed an ethics complaint accusing democrats of making the allegations without evidence. today, he responded to this letter from the committee in statement saying this tour was with a constituent family that had young children and they never entered the capitol building. they are calling on the capitol police to release these tapes so people can sort of solve this they said, they said.
7:06 pm
right now capitol police are responding saying they cannot make any additional evidence public while the investigation is ongoing. it remains a they said, they said. >> there's so many questions. one of which talked about the interview. he gave the interview as a january riot was under way. he talked about meeting with constituents. what is he saying? >> that's right. as the january 6th riot was unfolding, he told a local georgia radio station he met with a dozen people from his home state on the day prior, on capitol hill and these folks traveled to washington, d.c. for the trump rally that proceeded the attack. let's listen to what he said on the day of the insurrection. >> we had about a dozen people that wanted to come by and visit. we had them in our office. they definitely were peaceful people. people we met at church. they were supporters of the president. they wanted to be up here as if
7:07 pm
it was another rally. we checked on them to make sure they are safe. when they saw what it was turning into, they immediately turned and went back down the mall to get away from the crowd here. >> the let fter from the commite is sparse on details about what evidence they have to suggest he was providing a tour that was relevant to the insurrection. to breakthrough, the committee is likely going to have to provide more evidence, specific evidence to prove these claims. this is part of the overall challenge as they try to tell the story of what they uncovered during the investigation over the next several months. >> before you came on, the former attorney general, bill barr, has tentatively agreed to give testimony to the january 6th committee. what do they want know from him in. >> the don, i think bill barr
7:08 pm
can come in and provide a lot of information about what donald trump was doing, the former president was doing before and after the election. what information he wanted from the justice department. remember he was pushing for these investigations into alleged fraud which barr told him, finally, there was none. the justice department investigated. couldn't find evidence to support his claims. we know that their relationship was breaking apart, falling apart. you can get a lot of information about the president's frame of mind and perhaps the beginning of what became this effort to over turn the results to do what came to a head on january 6th. >> thank you. i appreciate that. turn now to cnn s.e. cupp. good evening to both of you.
7:09 pm
the january 6th committee have evidence that gop rep led a tour of the capitol the day before the rioters stormed the building. we heard tour accusations swirl for more than a year. what does it mean now that the committee say they have the receipts here? >> they better have the receipts because this is a really sensational accusation and allegation. if it's true, it is a remarkable act of betrayal. it's a traitorous act for a member of congress to give a tour in order to provide reconnaissance for an expected attack. that said, i think it's interesting to note his response. it's not the typical nondenial. he said straight up, this does not happen. he's said release the tapes. the committee says we have evidence that directly contradicts your claim. the proof will be right there for the scene. this is not question of intent, this is a question of did it happen? who did he meet with? are these people who stormed the capitol charged by the justice
7:10 pm
department? the committee had better be ready to back up this claim because it's quite serious. >> it's not unusual for people to give tours, right, to people they know. if i call up and say you're a congressperson or s.e., can you show me your office or show me around, not usual? >> yeah, exactly right. first of all, i'd never run for congress. people give tours all the time. that will be the question. what did the people, if he gave a tour, where did he show them? did he show the capitol building itself. who were these people? did they storm the capitol? if these are among the people who have been charged by the justice department, that's going be a big problem for the congressman. if they are not and no evidence they were involved in storming the capitol or planning it then this will be an over sell by the committee. >> he said he was there with a constituent family, young children, appears to be saying it's not true.
7:11 pm
could this just be a disagreement over how you would define a tour? >> yeah. exactly. the not true part, what part is not true. there's a broad spectrum of what could not be true about what is being said. this is as bad an accusation as it gets. this makes january 6th not an event of opportunity but of intention and then you have a sitting lawmaker, perhaps more, really aiding in the planning of that. i have to say back when democrats were making these claims the days after the insurrection with zero evidence, i was really disturbed by that. both the content of the claims and the fact they had no proof of it. they were just throwing it out there. i mean, like i said, it doesn't get worse than that. if you don't have evidence to back that up, i thought it was
7:12 pm
irresponsible. his responses have been so leaving no room for ambiguity. this is a really said they said, they said. democrats are saying they saw what they saw. republicans are saying it didn't happen. we need to see these tapes. we need to see the evidence or this will be a real, you know, battle of partisanship for people watching. >> i want to get to ag barr. could possibly the congress people have been used by people. could they have said, i'm going to ask this person or ask my congressman to show me around with them not knowing the intent for -- >> that stretches credulity a bit. i don't know how many congressmen give hands on tours,
7:13 pm
in my limited experience on the hill. it's usually staffer. the question is where did the tour go? do you have any secret entrances, what other ways might we get out of here? where is the security? that's the kind of thing that any sent yent congressman should say wait a minute, something is wrong here. the tape will help tell the tale here. >> let's talk about ag barr. tentatively agreeing to talk behind closed doors. did trump know he had lost the election? explain why this is so important. >> that's the question. there's two bill barrs when it comes to big lie. the bill barr who supported it up until the election and the bill barr after. if he said there's no evidence of fraud then all donald trump did after that, i think there's a better argument it's fraud. he knew there was no evidence of fraud. he tried to use that any way to
7:14 pm
strong arm the vice president and state legislature. the testimony becomes clean could go do donald trump state of mind, his intent. >> what is the impact on the republican party and trump world if ag barr does testify? >> there are two bill barrs. there's the barr that republicans really, really liked and then the barr they didn't. he gave an informal interview before, i think at his home. the committee thinks what he said was real useful and now they want him to do it under oath or he wasn't saying enough. there's more to say could compel hem under a subpoena and the threat of perjury to tell more. i'm kind of interested in why this is happening.
7:15 pm
i think bar lost a lot of credibility among the maga crowd. didn't really gain any by his last minute disavowal of the trump lie in the 11th hour. >> depends on what he says in testimony. thank you both. appreciate it. inflation, covid, election lies, americans are worried about the direction of this country. the big question is, how do we solve all this and restore faith in our elections. that's the question. that's next. this is roundup for lawns. this stuff works. this stuff kills weeds down to the root without killing your lawn. this stuff works on dandelions, crabgrass, clover. this stuff works for up to three months. this stuff works guaranteed, or your money back. this is roundup for lawns. this stuff works.

7:20 pm
his senate primary before the votes are done being counted. you write in post and i quote here, republicans aren't ready for trump style fraud claims in gop primaries. wa happens if they affect elections at state and local level? >> it's a further erosion of all kind of trust in our election system. what the ultimate impact is on a senate race, i don't think anybody knows. the republican party isn't prepared for this. the pennsylvania republican party or any other state or mu
7:21 pm
nus n municipality happens. >> accept for today what he said. it's time for the dark maga, but any way. >> he conceded before he went back on the crazy train. yes. it's easier to identify problems than offer solutions. >> kwhast interesting to me, doug, the same rules are in place that were in place in 2020 for this election and they are saying different things. back then it was stop counting the votes. stop counting the votes. you're going to steal the votes and they are like all the votes need to be counted right now except for trump who is still saying stop. both candidates are saying keep counting the votes when they were saying, because the election lie, the big lie, well we need to just stopping the votes now.
7:22 pm
i don't understand the thinking. >> the bush campaign wanted another for whatever would benefit them. i'll tell you the bush campaign argued one thing in florida and didn't contest new mexico because they would have had to make the exact opposite argument of what they were making for florida and florida was a much bigger prize. campaigns will say whatever is in their best interest whether count every vote or we've counted enough. that's politics as usual, fortunately or unfortunately. we've been there before. where we haven't been is there real erosion and eroding our own confidence in our own election systems. that's why georgia went democratic not just for joe biden but trust in our election system in those senate run offers where we saw two democrats win instead of republicans. >> this country is facing crisis on multiple fronts now. people are frustrated. they are burned out by all of
7:23 pm
it. what chance is there to solve the problems if people are being told to not have faith in the electoral process. >> i think the unfortunate thing we have seen is the poison that got into the system early is still there in state after state. there are people who are trump followers and running not only for congress but lower offices who are basically taking the trump lie. they find it if it's convenient to lie, you lie. if it's convenient to mislead the county e -- country, do yo that. it's badly for the elections in midterm and even worse for the presidential in 2024. there has to be a effort on both parties to see if they can find common ground before there
7:24 pm
occur. there's been a lot of recounting, the trump coming on telling oz to count the votes, declare victory before the votes are in. that kind of thing, then i think there's going to be even more exhaustion and we'll have a much rougher ride and very importantly we're laying the ground work for a government that cannot govern. i don't care who wins. >> how do -- listen, there's only one party right now that is doing damage to the integrity of elections. basically, it's the trump wing of the republican party, which
7:25 pm
seem to be the republican party now. we need to work for people to have faith in our system but how do -- why do democrats need to work more with that? they're not out there lying about an election. >> they're not lying but they're also not getting the message out of what they are accomplishing. it's a frustrating process. don, ultimately, i'm not sure the people we're electing right now are capable give tenn the dynamics are capable of over coming these problems now. it's so difficult. it's so rooted. these elections that we're having right now, the pre-preliminaries. telling us nothing much has changed since the election of donald trump. it is primarily, the radicalization started on the republican side. there are elements of it on the democratic side but it's been a republican set of initiatives that have led to this poisoning. >> listen, they are all
7:26 pm
lawmakers and should be frying to gain the trust of the american people. the messaging is not good. doug, i want to ask you this question about the freedom caucus. even many gop lawmakers are tired of the freedom caucus members delaying votes, forcing lawmakers to cancel. fund raising events and so on and so forth. it appears the same group behind the madison cawthorn will now target lauren bobert. have more sensible republicans had enough? >> they have. if you talk to members of congress, i talk to every week, you hear this and i've heard from for years now. a constant frustration with the freedom caucus not only blocking things that normal things that republican things would want to do but gumming up the wrorks on everything to turnering into a

that's what he did and he endorsed mastriono in the 11th hour seeing the polls. going against what most republicans wanted who are trying to get an acceptable candidate. they will blame trump for giving pennsylvania republicans an unelectable candidate for the fall. in pennsylvania, i think trump did serious damage to himself should he run in 2024. in georgia looks like kemp will romp over purdue. if i were trump, i'd keep my nose out of this. he is only making enemies of a lot of republicans by making these endorsements. he's sticking his nose where he ought not. >> thank you. i'll see you soon. the suspect in the racist mass shooting of buffalo indicted by a grand jury. one source saying 15 people saw his plans online just before the attack. , dry and sandpaper. luckily, there's biotrue hydration boost eye drops for instant moisture.
