nina's got a lot of ideas for the future. and since anyone can create a free plan at fidelity, nina has a plan based on what matters most to her. and she can simply focus on right now. that's the planning effect. from fidelity. tomorrow morning, members say the house republican steering committee will meet to select committee assignments. by this time tomorrow night we could learn about the deals. >> carol: -- kevin mccarthy made. some of the agreement is public knowledge.

what do we know about the side deals? >> gop leaders are not committing to releasing a public list of every concession kevin mccarthy made in his quest to become speaker. despite the fact that they have called for a more open and transparent government. some of the concessions were explicitly spelled out in the house rules package, which republicans did pass last night with the support of every republican except for one. some of the other promises that were made were done through more of a handshake deal. gop leaders are insisting there isn't an official master list and it wasn't some side deal. they tried to walk members through what some of the verbal agreements were during a conference meeting this morning. that includes tieing the debt ceiling. it could tee up a fiscal showdown. a promise to put more conservative members on key committees. some rank and file members still feel like they are in the dark. take a listen to what nancy mace

told our colleagues earlier today. >> there's still questions i think many of us have about what side deals may or may not have been made, what promises, wh handshakes. are there any other things? >> republicans will meet tomorrow morning where they will actually populate these committees with members. after that, chairs get to elect their subcommittee chairs. we should start to learn more in the coming days about the full extent of mccarthy's concessions. >> some are being implemented. what's been noticeable so far? >> one of the key concessions that kevin mccarthy agreed to was to create a special committee to investigate the, quote, weaponization of the federal government. the house did pass a resolution to create that committee earlier today. it was a party line vote. the resolution included specific language that will allow members to look into ongoing criminal probes, including some that potentially involve former

president donald trump. the next step is kevin mccarthy will appoint members to the committee. we are expecting some of the kevin mccarthy critics to be a part of that. democrats will get to appoint their members. the big picture here is that this is probably going to be the central avenue that republicans use to protect donald trump, defend donald trump and go after the biden administration. >> thank you. coming up, house majority leader steve scalise was asked about giving c-span cameras better access to the floor. he replied, i think that would be great. earlier today, congressman matt gaetz filed a measure to do that. a wisconsin democrat said he is introducing similar coverage. more tonight from tom foreman. >> reporter: republican congress members nearly coming to blows in the battle over the speakership.

democrats roaring, cheering, chanting for their man instead. fighting words flowing fast. >> they want us to fight each other. that much has been made clear by the popcorn and blankets and alcohol. >> reporter: normally cameras are controlled by government workers and confined to general shots of the podium. but there are rare exceptions. for this event, c-span cameras were free to capture the political la lapalooza. >> i rise to say, wow. >> reporter: caught on camera, a meeting between alexandria

ocasio-cortez and hard right people. matt gaetz held out. >> it's an intent driven almost exclusively by personal ambition. that ambition is paralyzing the house. >> reporter: there was new member george santos, so embroiled in scandal over fabrications in his resume, he sat alone at times. c-span started in 1979 as a public service provided by the cable industry. >> the solution for the lack of confidence in government, mr. speaker, is more open government at all levels. >> reporter: after years of being limited in what it can show of the chamber, c-span's director of editorial operations says in the name of openness, it would be great if they could provide such coverage all the time. let people see how the sausage is made. there is some support in congress for this idea.

but it's hard to imagine the cameras being turned loose permanently. after all, politics is also theater. there were moments we saw that were more tragic and more comic than some lawmakers might like. >> tom foreman, thanks. a congressman sitting alone on the house floor. george santos, who told voters and donors a string of lies during the campaign about nearly every facet of his life. two democratic members of the new york delegation went to the house ethics committee with it. we will speak with one of them right after this cnn report from jessica dean. >> reporter: george santos' problems piling up. what's the best outcome? >> we have to send a message if you defraud the voters, you are going to be held accountable. >> reporter: these congressmen launched their request for a formal probe into santos' financial disclosure reports on tuesday. this after a campaign watchdog group filed a complaint against him with the federal election

committee. they accuse santos of illegally using campaign funds to pay personal expenses and of concealing the source of more than $700,000. that complaint also alleges santos' campaign falsified how it spent campaign funds. santos told reporters today, he has done nothing unethical. house gop leadership told reporters tuesday they would address santos in private. >> this is being handled internally. there were concerns about what we had heard. so we're going to have to sit down and talk to him about it. >> reporter: all of this as santos faces international, federal and local investigations into his past, including a revived investigation in brazil where according to documents obtained by cnn, santos admitted in 2010 to stealing a man's checkbook two years prior that was in his mother's possession and using it to purchase clothing and shoes. >> translator: i was very frustrated, being desiceived is terrible feeling. >> reporter: this shop clock at

the time was a victim of santos' fraud, losing over $1,300 when santos forged the checks. he recounted the experience in an interview last week. >> translator: unlike being muguruzaed mugged, you feel bad. bun someone steelistealing, it' worse. >> reporter: santos confessed he forged the signature seen on these checks. but after that confession, police in brazil say santos disappeared, unable to locate santos for nearly a decade, they suspended the investigation and the statute of limitations as a result. >> my name is george santos. >> reporter: until santos burst on the scene as a congressman elect under scrutiny for lies during the campaign. now brazilian authorities say they will reinstate fraud charges against him. the long island republican

maintains he has not committed any crimes, including in brazil. >> i'm not a criminal. i committed no crimes. i'm not a wanted criminal. >> reporter: jessica dean, cnn, capitol hill. joining us now is dan goldman, one of the two members who filed the complaint. appreciate you joining us. with republicans in control of the house and the leetadership saying santos will be handled internally, are you confident there will be an ethics investigation? >> i don't know what intentionally means. the ethics committee is required to investigate members for potentially unethical or illegal behavior. it's a bipartisan committee that has equal republicans and democrats and non-partisan staff. i have heard from several republican members, including one in new york who went public with it, that there is support on the republican side for an ethics committee investigation. so i would hope that if republicans do care about

members of congress following the laws that we write, that they would also support an ethics committee investigation. >> is that something that a sitting congressman can use campaign funds to pay for attorneys to defend against or prepare for an ethics investigation, do you know? >> i don't actually know. if you can use campaign funds for attorneys generally, i would assume you are able to at least use either campaign funds or some of your member budget. you know, i would expect george santos would also want to be cooperative. if he did nothing unethical, as he said, then he should turn over the documents and the materials related to his financial disclosures and his campaign finances to the ethics committee so they can examine them and make a determination whether or not he did do anything unethical. if he is right, then there shouldn't be an issue. if he is wrong, then he shouldn't be in congress. >> we saw during the battle over the speaker's gavel how narrow

the margins are for house republicans. santos' support was critical to mccarthy's victory. if mccarthy continues to need that vote, do you think santos likely remains safe? >> it's very clear that the republican leadership has not at any point rebuked or condemned santos' conduct, his web of lies that has come out more and more seemingly every day and every week. in fact, there was reporting last month that it was perceived to be a running joke among republican leadership. george santos is essential to kevin mccarthy getting the speaker's gavel. he is essential to continuing their majority. what is clear is the gop leadership has wrapped themselves around george santos, a serial liar, and complete fraud, as part of who they are. >> what do you think the consequences should be for santos? based on what is known about the lies he told, there are those who say, deny him committee

assignments or expel him from congress. others say tlet the voters deal with him in two years. >> part of the reason we filed this complaint is there are no laws prohibiting deception that we know of. he lied about his ethnicity, his religion, his education, his employment history, the list goes on and on. what we filed this complaint with the ethics committee to look into his finances. there are specific and clear laws governing financial disclosures for candidates for congress. that's why we are pursuing this angle is that his financial disclosures are incredibly suspicious. he had a windfall of several million dollars after being in debt and making almost no money. he gave $700,000 of that windfall to his campaign. very yellow lights all over the place.

let's see what is in them. then we will make a determination what the proper recourse should be. >> i have heard in the past, some members of congress who have been investigated by the house ethics committee have spent millions of dollars on attorneys trying to defend themselves and that if they resign, basically they can save themselves the trouble. the investigation would stop. is that the case, that if he was to resign -- if there was a house ethics investigation and he was to resign, would that investigation stop? >> generally speaking, yes, if you are not a member of congress, my understanding is that the ethics committee investigations would cease. of course, the criminal investigations into him would not. >> right. if republicans refuse to do anything, what then? >> well, they are going to have embrace george santos. they are going to have to live with the fact that they are wrapping their arms around a serial fraudster who deceived the voters in his district by lying about just about everything possible in order to

get elected. if the republican attacks on democracy want to continue now with attacks on free and fair elections, like what george santos did in his new york district, then that is who the republican party is going to be. >> it's incredible he was able to do this and get elected. thank you. >> thanks. the political fallout on capitol hill to the revelation that classified documents were discovered at president biden's former private office. the president weighing in for the first time on the subject. later, brazil, their version of january 6 and what one of the rioters told cnn about their attack on the seat of government on behalf of the losing presidential candidate.

information regarding these documents? >> reporter: the new chairman of the house oversight committee is wasting no time. he sent out two letters to the white house and the national archives asking for a wide range of records and communications, including the records retrieved from biden's private office. he wants it by january 24th. among the matters is whether or not other people had handled these records, their security clearance as well as other issues. the question is whether the biden white house decides to cooperate. biden tonight suggested that they would fully cooperate. does that mean they will give over everything to the new republican house? whether that means if they don't, how will they proceed? will that lead to a subpoena fight? those are questions in the days and weeks ahead. there are other ways the republicans are hoping to get more information, including in the house intelligence committee, mike turner, who is the new chairman of the committee, issuing a letter to the chairwoman of the -- the

director of national intelligence, asking for a damage assessment of those records. one worry that this could have led to potential national security breaches. wondering if that was the case. you are seeing republicans wasting no time digging into this issue. the question will administrati cooperate? >> is this comparable to what house democrats asked of the national archives in the mar-a-lago inquiry? >> reporter: in some ways, yes. there's democrats right now who are asking for the similar -- have similar questions. mark warner, chairman of the senate intelligence committee, asked for a briefing himself. he wants the briefing about what happened with mar-a-lago. there are democrats that are saying that this is a completely different situation than the mar-a-lago case in which donald trump had more records, tried to obstruct an investigation allegedly and also a battle back

and forth about this. people like dick durbin say, this is different. joe biden cooperated, turned over these documents. he said that garland, the attorney general, is handling this. a lot of democrats who are just simply keeping their powder dry, they don't know where this is going to go. they have been quiet about this just trying to assess what comes next. >> manu raju, appreciate it. joining us now, former obama special advisor, van jones. also abby phillip. van, what do you make of this? obviously, there's an investigation under way. democrats are quick to point out the differences between what happened with the vice president to what the former president has done. what do you make of it? >> i'm proud of joe biden. somebody on his team made a

mistake and as soon as he figured it out, raised his hand, turned it over. that's what you are supposed to do. can we be honest? there's a bigger problem. the over classification and under monitoring of documents. this is not the first time this happened. your public library does a better job of keeping track of library books than the federal government keeping track of these classified documents. sometimes people make mistakes. the key is, when you make a mistake, do you own up to it and try to get it right? do you hide it and do all the stuff trump has been doing? joe's team made a mistake. he admitted to it. ordinarily -- it's not a crime. it's a mistake. you see no criminal intent here. >> we heard president biden say he takes classified documents seriously. he was surprised to find out there were documents in the office. is that enough of an explanation? not for republican members of congress. should it be enough? >> it's not going to be enough of an explanation for republicans. i think they see this as a

political gift for them, as a way of inoculating themselves against the allegations against former president trump, who by the way had hundreds of documents in his possession. the issue really there was that he wouldn't give them back when the government asked for them back. that's a key part of all of this. you know, one of the challenges for biden is that he, in commenting on the trump case, seemed to sort of say, i don't understand how in any way these documents could ever end up outside of where they ought to be. i do think though there's an argument to be made that at times, you know, things can get mixed up and people, as van pointed out, can make mistakes. there's a process for dealing with that, which is to call the ar archives, give those documents back. i think biden will have to answer for those comments he made in the past. it's not going to be enough for

him to say, well, i didn't know that they were there. it is his responsibility and that of his staff to go through his belongings and give everything back when he leaves office. six years later doing that is not just a mistake but it's something that i think he knows should not have happened. >> van, look, democrats are very quick to defend the president. again, point out the differences. if they were concerned about any classified documents being at mar-a-lago, shouldn't they also be concerned about -- why are there classified documents in -- a file marked personal in the then vice president's office? >> they should be. that's why there's a law against stuff like that. his team screwed up. i think we will be in a situation where we will have more information going forward. i think the most important thing we can say tonight is that

perfection is not a job requirement for the president, the vice president or anybody else who works in the executive branch. people make mistakes. the question is, do you cure those? you get yourself into trouble when you have a chance to cure the mistakes and you don't. it looks like you are doing it on purpose. that's why people are more concerned about what trump did. if it turns out that biden is hiding stuff and for some reason is not -- stops cooperating, we should treat him the same way. we should not treat biden inappropriately harshly to justify treating trump appropriately harshly. >> house republicans who are looking into what they say is the weaponization or concerned about the weaponization of the federal government against conservatives, particularly justice department or fbi, this certainly plays into that. these documents were discovered the week before the midterms last fall. there have been questions by republicans s raised about, why was this held on to for so long?

why does it only leak out now? >> i mean, i think that by that same token, you could argue that the justice department could have made announcements that could have been seen as politically damaging to trump prior to the election. they didn't do that either. the justice department has a longstanding policy of trying to avoid making moves before an election that could have an impact on that election. after the last midterm election, they announced a special counsel to take over the trump case. they could have done that before the election and they didn't. i think this cuts both ways. you could attack the justice department for waiting. certainly, there are questions about why we are learning about this now in january when these events happened in november. i don't think that it's much of a surprise to me or really anyone else that they would not have wanted to make any big moves before a major midterm election. i should note, one of the individuals on the house side, the oversight chairman, is looking into this issue when it

comes to biden. a few weeks ago, he told cnn that it wasn't a priority. that's a quote. it's not a priority for him to look into the trump documents case. it's another case of a double standard here. >> appreciate it. thank you. a 6-year-old shoots his teacher. please new details and the teacher's condition coming up.

adding to the list of horrific school shootings, a 6-year-old boy pulled the trigger in virginia on friday. his teacher was shot and remains hospitalized. how did this happen and who is to blame? brian todd has more. >> reporter: the mother of a first grader could face charges, police tell cnn, in the case of the teacher shot in the chest friday. >> i think that that is a possibility. >> reporter: it was the mother's gun, the 6-year-old intentionally shot the teacher with, police tell cnn. >> he put it in the backpack. was driven to school by his mother later that morning. then at some point it came out and it was concealed on him.

>> reporter: failure to secure a gun from a child is a misdemeanor in virginia. in other cases, more serious charges have been brought. after a fatal school shooting in 2000, a 6 ye-year-old's uncle served two years after the child found his loaded gun in a shoe box on the bed. >> if you leave a gun laying around, it's obvious to most people that that's a dangerous thing to do. the question is whether the parent could foresee this harm would come. there's where prosecutors get into some tangle. >> reporter: experts say the 6-year-old, now being evaluated under a temporary detention order, is likely too young to be charged or tried. >> he can't form criminal intent to maliciously wound someone which would be the charge. two, he is not competent at that age to understand the proceedings. >> reporter: the teacher is in stable condition. her first question to the police chief was whether the other kids

were okay. >> reporter: a fellow teacher calls her compassionate and kind. but also mentally and physically strong. >> i have seen her resilience, dedication and love for what she does. just being in her presence helped me grow as a teacher and as a person. >> reporter: the police chief believes she saved lives along with another heroic employee who restrained the child after. there were more bullets in the gun. >> she made sure every one of the kids were out of the room. she was the last to leave. she took it upon herself in that situation, after suffering a gunshot wound. >> reporter: another focus, school security. the elementary school has only an unarmed guard, shared with another school. >> there are no metal detectors into that school. there's one in the library. we don't have a guideline of clear backpacks that could have helped this as well as security with wands to get each child

through. >> reporter: those are currently mainly used at the district's middle schools and high schools. >> i hate to be at this point where i'm considering this. we have to start relying on those types of deterrents at the elementary level as well. >> brian, we heard about how heroic the teacher. you have details on another school employee. >> reporter: that's right. i don't think that this part of the story has been discussed enough in this scenario. we have heard about the heroism of the teacher getting all the kids out of the classroom and being the last one to leave before she herself sought help in the office. police say there was a second school employee who right after the children rushed out of the classroom rushed into the classroom, restrained the 6-year-old boy until police got there. and police say that boy at that moment became combative and struck that employee. the employee was still able to restrain him until the police got there. when you think about that and

the heroism it took after those kids get out of the classroom, you rush in there, you don't know what you are going to confront. that gun still had several bullets. that child could have taken aim at that second employee and fired. you don't know any of that going into that room. it took real heroism. that's an underplayed part of the story. >> appreciate it. we will get perspective from joey jackson. this is obviously just troubling. how likely is it that the child's mother would be charged? >> i think it's very likely, anderson, for the following reason. i think prosecutors are not only going to look at the existing statute. that's well-known in the event that you recklessly leave a gun lying around and it gets into the hands of a child, you know that it could endanger others. that's just the class one misdemeanor. virginia goes one, two, three, four. class one, you are eligible for

up to one year in jail. as it relates to a person who has been shot in the stomach by the child, that's the more serious issue. it's not just a misdemeanor prosecutors will look to. they will look to employ other measures. other measures, for example, where you are criminally negligent in another way such that it raises the specter of what the liability should be as has happened in other cases. i think prosecutors will be creative about using other laws to potentially get more criminal responsibility beyond a class one misdemeanor. it's more serious than that. a felony, something over a year in jail, should be considered for deterrence value and the value on this happening, it should not have. >> how difficult might it be for prosecutors or defense attorneys to piece together what happened given the shooter is a 6-year-old child? are there a lot of precedent cases for this? >> there's a lot of challenges

in every case with respect to noting exactly what the circumstances were that led up to it. i think there will be a full and fair investigation. where was the gun? obviously, they have looked to determine how it was purchased and the fact it was legally purchased by the mom. what were you doing with it? where were you storing it? how did the child have access? how did you not know that the child took the gun? what preventative and protective measures did you employ? it's not just the evaluation of the 6-year-old. there are challenges. but i guess at the end of the day, prosecutors and police will do a good job determining to the best of their knowledge how exactly this could happen and preventing it from happening again. >> at this point, no one is suggesting the child would face charges. what would you expect the state to try to -- take some action, whether counseling or some sort of intervention? >> yeah. i think that that's important.

of course, when you are dealing with a child, we talk about the mental state. adults can formulate mental states. you look at whether an adult did something intentionally. a lot more different with a child who really has other issues in terms of formulating. did the child know what they were doing? did they know from an intentional perspective the consequences? i think the system has to deal with them in a different way, from a rehadbilitative aspect t get the child better, get them in a situation where they can grow and advance and correct this misstep for that child and others who may follow their lead. >> appreciate it. just ahead, top legal officials in brazil promising to punish all responsible for violent attacks sunday on their congress, the presidential palace and the supreme court. we will hear from one of the rioters.

responsible for the riots of supporters of the previous president and they stormed key buildings. more than 1,500 were detained. 527 people were arrested. unclear how many are in custody. the former president was just released from the hospital in florida. he tells a cnn affiliate he expects to return to brazil. we spoke to one of the protesters who was arrested. >> reporter: pro bolsonaro people defiant. victory is ours, they scream. our flag will never be red, they chant. a direct reference to president lula's left wing worker's party. they were questioned about their alleged role in one of the ugliest days in brazilian politics. some of those inside complain of the conditions.

it is awful food, not even dogs eat this one says. some authorities have vowed to punish those involved. those found to have violently played a part in tearing through the democratic institutions are being accused of terrorism and attempted coup, among other offenses. one senator tells me that a large number of them have been freed. many are still inside. authorities are trolling through the intelligence, all the video to find out what role they played on that sunday as they run riot through the capitol. a protester who acknowledges she went inside but denies being part of violence tells me her story. it is chaos here. we don't know anything. they can't say exactly if people are imprisoned if they're going to get out. the 50 days she says she was protesting outside the army headquarters in brasilia, hoping the election she says was robbed from bolsonaro, would be

overturned. for many like her, the issue is lula. a man who served time on corruption charges. those were later thrown out on a zu judicial technicality. our intention she asks? not agreeing with everything happening, she says. the ballot boxes, we keep claiming this all the time, asking for help from the armed forces to help the people, she adds. i ask her if her actions make her a terrorist. i'm not a terrorist. i don't have weapons, she tells me. those that did carry them left their mark on this country's institutions, tearing through the halls of power with axes, knives and grenades, according to the justice minister, in an act that can only be described as an attack on brazilian democracy. at the federal police i asked the same protester if she regrets anything. i don't regret it. i don't regret it. i wasn't armed. i didn't go with a mask, glasses, with a bomb.

this is a challenge for lula who has been on the job for just over a week. uniting a polarized country, a movement that is angry and simply refuses to accept defeat. >> what's your understanding of how many people have been charged? what consequences could they face? >> reporter: we spoke with the federal police this evening. they told us about 599 protesters have been released. 527 have been charged. they could face up to 12 years in prison, depending on the charge. could be anything from being part of a coup or to terrorism. about 500 or so are still being triaged, being questioned by local authorities. questions are being asked tonight about the security here in the country. was there an intelligence
