a concern the european union and allies abroad. >> certainly concerning as we continue to watch the election results in italy. thank you so much. that wraps up for me everybody. i will be in the chair this coming thursday and friday. also back next weekend on saturday and sunday 2 pm eastern. simone starts right now. >> greetings, you are watching simone. coming up this week it's the first hearing since july. we talk a congresswoman zoloft in about what they want the american city to know before the investigation wraps up. republicans release the midterm elections. the so-called commitment to america, president biden calls a threat to women. it's also just business as usual to the republican party and we are back with our culture critics today. we are launching the regroup for culture critics.

it will dive into the group chats in the nfl halftime show. and who we just learned to his performing after this photo was posted instagram. i'm simone and i have something to say. after almost two months out of the public eye of the house select committee investigating january six it is ready to present more information to the american people. the next public hearing is on wednesday. thompson says they have significant witness testimony that we haven't seen yet. we know the committee has gathered more information since july and we have now learned from the vice chair of the committee that this will not be the last hearing. we also know that jaime thomas, the wife of supreme court

justice clarence thomas has agreed to participate in a voluntary interview with the role in disputing the 2020 elections. it's not clear one of the clock is ticking and with just 44 days is a game-changer for house democrats. what is next? luckily we have someone with us i want to start with a lofgren from california. she's a member of the january six committee. liz cheney said that she does not anticipate wednesdays hearing to be the committees last. we know you'll have no evidence that this hearing. so, what can you tell us about what we should expect wednesday and wears the panel going next? >> there's some new things and i want people to watch on wednesday. i'm not gonna go into the details beforehand but we have worked throughout the summer.

our deadline is not the election and we exist as a select committee only for the life of the congress and it extends to the end of december. we are preparing a report we may be able to provide additional public information on a more periodic basis. i don't know if this is been made in a formal public hearing after this one, but i do believe we will have some public disclosure of finding and recommendation. our job isn't just to find the facts but also trump's suggestions for changes in law and procedures that would keep a safer in the future and we took that first step last week in the house passed for the electric -- the building will list cheney and i worked. on >> this act passed in the

house i think less than ten republicans across the aisle to vote with you on. that you have any occasions about what this means in the senate? what are your colleagues in congress saying? do you have the 60 votes to get this bill passed? >> there is a companion bill in the senate. it was introduced before our so i want to give credit to the senators. there is some overlap and there are some differences. i believe the senate committee is marking up their bill this week tuesday obviously this cheney now talking to the centers with both the chair and ranking members of the committee. they may take another approach. and it's camera as a solution. you have to say let's find common ground, not it's my way or the highway.

i'm convinced senators are taking that approach. i know i am >> we'll be watching for that. talking about these hearings this week, i'm wondering about ginni thomas. we know the wife of supreme court justice agreed to be interviewed by the committee have actually sat down with her yet. >> no, but we will in the near future and i'm glad that she's coming in. she indicated that she would and it would take a while to get to this point. she did say publicly that she looked forward to coming in and talking with the committee. so, we're looking forward to that too. >> before you go congresswoman, one other question about wednesdays hearing specifically. would you say that what they're going to hear once a significant? >> i think it's important. i think we have built up information that is new i and

this adds to this pile of information. when we started on the sand never guessed at some of the information that we found. so, stay tuned we'll see you wednesday. congresswoman with the t's, thank you very much. >> there's so much more to talk about regarding the january 6th hearings with the legal troubles. i want to bring in a criminal defense attorney at nbc news legal analyst. broad waters is also with us he covers congress for the new york times. >> you heard from congresswoman zoe lofgren that we don't know what ginni thomas is coming, she's coming soon but what are you expecting from this interview and wednesdays hearing in general? >> much of this is reported early on the year and i would expect that we are hearing from the communications with mark meadows and top trump aide.

some of those have been leaked and reported. it's ginni thomas and mark meadows and the mutual admiration society of encouraging each other to continue in their fight. i can to fight for america, things like that. it may be more on the text messages that we haven't heard yet. but that is primarily what i expect. >> look, what are you hearing about folks on the hill about the hearings on wednesday? i asked congressman laufman. is what we are going to hear on wednesday significant? she didn't hype, it she said it's important. i feel like that is telling the movie i'm reading too much into it. >> this committee has a good track record of delivering the goods. there's been a lot of questions on whether they could produce these revelations each year. as the public finds more about the january six investigation, so far they have delivered each

time. they did lay everything out in that series of hearings in june in july. so yeah, i think there is pressure on them to continue to deliver. i think they established a track record in doing that. i suspect they would have new finding soon. >> they really want us to, watch the tuesday very well. i want to turn and talk about my favorite topic, president trump. there's new reporting about three of trump's lawyers who was seen leaving the federal courthouse in d.c. on thursday. now, the paper stated the talks about whether donald trump could stop mike pence before giving testimony to a federal grand jury by having executive privilege. liz cheney has something to say about that privilege claim as it relates to the house january six investigation. i don't play bit of it for you guys right now. >> committee is in discussion with vice president counsel.

people should never forget that what donald trump was pressuring mike pence to do is illegal and unconstitutional. because if the gravity of what happened in the direct threat to the public, he has an obligation to come and talk to the committee. i think executive privilege is a crucial part of our constitutional framework. it is not absolute. >> you know, i found this so interesting because we've all become experts on this. you just can't claim executive privilege. and up until this very moment, the current president has upheld an executive privilege for donald trump or his aide. so, what should we glean from this if anything? >> well, i think it shows that the trump legal team is very concerned about where this investigation is going. the fact they're having these meetings with federal prosecutors for the justice

department about -- for this beautiful mentor that we often? what can this person's testimony go here or there. i think it shows a level of concern by trump's top lawyers about this investigation moving up the ranks. we know that it's interviewing top white house lawyers. by president mike pence's staff to. i think it shows his level of concern. >> another investigation into the former president this is involving seized documents in his mar-a-lago home. a new poll by abc news that shows that 50% of americans believe president trump should be charged with crimes for handling classified documents. how are you ranking the chances of the former president in charge. we're not talking about if he's going to jail, we're talking about being charged. >> these numbers are striking.

these should never be a reason for prosecution. phone numbers are in a sense political. prosecution should never be political. it should be independent judgment of a prosecutor elected or appointed. that's really the point here. no prosecutor state or federal at their core really wants to take on a prosecution like this. it is one thing to have probable cause to execute a search warrant. it's entirely different to know if they can prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt against one of the more elusive defendants be at the central defendant. that's a really difficult decision. that's where the odds i think are still under 50%. i'm in the minority sam about in the 5% of thinks it's under 50%. >> all right, luke broadwater and dna with the coveted peacock put behind them.

and if i know how you got a pillow. thank you very much. coming up, we are going to get to the crisis in puerto rico we will get to the latest with the needs on the ground of the response. my colleague richard louis is here. richard? >> canadian troops are now helping recovery efforts after extensive storm damage from fiona and canada. it was the strongest arm to make landfall in the country. damage was so widespread and they were told that power might not be restored until mid week. the other storm we are watching is called in. president biden approved emergency declarations in florida. it's expected to be a category three or four storm within the next day and a half as it nears cuba. as the likelihood it was

heading south florida. u.s. national security told nbc news chuck todd that biden administration officials issued new warnings to russia not to use nuclear weapons they said that the u.s. would respond decisively if russia used nuclear weapons. russia would face catastrophic consequences. more simone right after the short break. t break. with downy infusions, let the scent set the mood.

exactly five years after hurricane maria. it was a category four hurricane and that hurricane also nearly decimated the island. fiona hit puerto rico is a category one storm. even still nearly half the islands without electricity and water as we speak. that is in spite of plans to address power grid problems after hurricane maria. so, there are questions here. the key when i have is why and who is to blame. puerto rico's electric power authority also known as probable as a private company that took over the island's power transmission and distribution last year. they're both under scrutiny. new york attorney laetitia james offered an investigation into the energy provider saying quote, puerto ricans are rightly concerned about the failures of law. she goes on to say that i'm climb for an federal investigation into the matt critical upgrades. the system improvements set puerto ricans are never again

left in the dark. i want to bring in carmen ghislaine cruz. she's the former mayor of san juan puerto rico. i believe you are in puerto rico right now, vladimir. thank you for joining us. i want to start with asking, how do you think elected officials have handled the crisis on the island following hurricane fiona? >> simone, one of the things i tell the students when i talk about them about process management is that prices are about people. and of course, people favor in the current government say they haven't. but i'm here in the southern port of puerto rico what you are looking at the sanitary waters and pipes that grow and broke. this is water with human extremists that is now is smelling terrible. it is clean the second time

this week. you can see over here how high and for the electrical grid alone nine billion dollars and only 40 million have been used. so, we were not ready for category one or even less a category two the mayors are doing all they can it's all hands on deck as we speak. it's all the resources that go to the central government. the central government towards all of that. the >> central government is

not releasing the funds across the territory? not only are they not releasing it but last week the governor of puerto rico allowed each municipality when there is a fund, an emergency fund that had 100 $59 million in it that could be easily distributed. not all the municipalities were put on the emergency declaration. now it's fema's part, it's the government's fault. people in this community are suffering the consequences. >> what can these folks do to help the citizens of puerto rico? >> first of all i think it's important that we look at the distinction of the trump administration and the biden

administration. still we don't weaponize this crisis. some people say close to 4000 people died, only 16 people so far have died even though hospitals are already saying our generators are about to go. we cannot continue to work on generators anymore. so, let's not compare one we. the second is to give money to organizations that are doing the work. organizations that you know will be able to put it on the ground. not just to the organization, but you can go on to the website and find out a list of organizations that i can make available to you that other people in puerto rico put together of grassroots organizations that are really doing the work. matt only now but ever since -- >> i know about, core

place where all options are heard in everyone's voices listed to. but what i don't think should happen, i understand where you asked the question. let's put in perspective, you just said canada's worst hurricane ever. half might be without electricity. they are being told that by the middle of this week they will have power again. 1.2 million people in puerto rico without electricity for qatar glory one hurricane and one 12% of the southern port of puerto rico is energized at this point. >> former mayor and puerto rico, carmen yulín cruz. thank you my friend, thank you. >> thank you for the opportunity. >> next, we are going to talk about the razor-thin margin in the new poll on support for congressional candidates. we're gonna get to where voters stand on what liz cheney is willing to do to boost democrats. but will it even be helpful? we'll be right back.

saying it again now, we all know the reminder. we're only 44 days away from one of the most important elections of our time. a new abc news washington post shows a deeply divided country ahead of these midterms with that systematic dead heat. sisters tickled egg heat and they congressional action. 47% republican, 46% democratic support. i want to get a closer look at the issues driving. this is a political journalist camilla. the host and managing editor of the unfiltered digital show and author of white fear. how the browning of americas making white folks lose our mind. political consultant host of cream cher, thank you all for being here. we will give me a, but we love the book it's assigned book. i want to take a look at what

the poll said is the biggest issue in each party. we're gonna put it up on the screen. republicans are favored when it's dealing with crime and inflation. democrats are favored runs down to abortion. but am i, opinion it's no one size fits all here folks. it's a hodgepodge. it's also talking about fixing the roads, abortion in arizona. it's abortion inflation in wisconsin. and they're trying to make it about crime. >> this is not the traditional mid term cycle that you are used to from our political backgrounds. and there's a reason you see the american public saying that maybe they want democrats. maybe they want republicans. i was saying my former republican colleagues, if they do when control the house it's gonna be by very, very slim margin. and in the senate, someone i'm not even certain -- that might be able to have victories and if they do win, they might be lucky. >> it shows that two thirds of voters see this election as more important as last maternal

actions. this is the same percentages 2018 for the midterm election was huge. you see, this we have a 64.8 women. 65% of men voted. let's talk about turnout in this country. in 2020 the highest turnout on record, only 60% of women voted, right? 68% of registered voters. you look at numbers filipino voters, black voters. the numbers are just astronomical. people are saying that turnout is gonna be high. what do you think here? first of all the poll is irrelevant. your state races are statewide. the congressional races are only 7000 people in each district. so they this -- they're different in each state district. the issue here will be intensity. the recent poll shows 75% of republicans actually turned out to vote. there's 5% less and there is

intensity. >> to people talk about it like enthusiasm. >> in 2016, simply told hillary clinton that you have an intensity problem. so, republicans are banking on that. and what democrats have been doing for the next 40 plus days is driving home, you must turn out. a lot of those voters are saying, i'm not quite sure, i didn't get what i want. i'm not sure if i want to trust you on this. they must be making it clear. if they're in control, everything you want will never happen. so, they must challenge that. it's an intensity, intensity battle. >> it's enthusiasm, we talk about that for a while. is driving people to the polls. liz cheney tried to make news today, she made it last night at the festival in texas. and talking about turnout, liz cheney is saying that she's going to campaign for democrats. i don't think that's gonna help democrats but maybe i'm wrong. >> this is not entirely surprising given how she's campaigned to make sure that trump is not reelected novice.

just saying that she will do everything to make sure that doesn't happen. she will show that there's division infraction among the republican party but they're not having one message. at least essentialized in what they want to accomplish. liz cheney has said she does not want them to hold office. democrats can use it to show that republicans are showing what they once had. delicious effects really effective. >> the bayous independents? >> exactly, i'm not using liz cheney in the campaign trail. >> it is a very interesting point to have the enthusiasm gap between both sides and he just raised another point, the independent swing voters. my concern if i was a democrat, do you particularly further increase enthusiasts on the right or right leaning independents by having liz cheney oh. cnn donald trump is the worst, i'd also say the i'm not certain that every democrat in every congressional district in

the country will look at liz cheney has somebody say that this is what former republican looks like that i should hold in high regard. a lot of democrats and i've seen pointed out in the past, some of liz cheney's problematic button issues. >> she voted about donald trump and like 97%. >> again this is a narrow margin. you're gonna be winning by narrow margins. if you're able to shift two, three, five, seven voters as effective. you don't see her out talking to democratic voters. you send her out to target those -- you send it out to target those voters who do not like the maga republicans. so, that is how she can be effective. again, it depends upon the congressional. >> i was gonna say that. >> it depends on where you. are just like we started that conversation just saying there is not a one size fits all. exactly. >> our talk about republican press for a second. you've got congressional republicans, republicans across the board now 44 days before

the midterm election and they got something that they want to know. it's a commitment to america. i want to put this on the screen okay this is facing some opposition mainly focus on the party's view on a woman's rights which is better on body. president biden is calling this a threat to women. here's what president biden said on friday. and 46 days america's gonna choose and republicans won't control the congress, abortion will be banned. it will be initially banned, but if they won congress i will veto it i think it was happening. they're banning in a case of rape in insect staff and many cases. they're trying to criminalize it nationwide. >> this is nothing new, we saw was a contract for america. isn't this just like the rehash of the old republican policies?

>> in the given climate is that the supreme court did overturn roe v. wade, so when you brought up the point about turnout there's more women turning out to vote. there is a lot at stake. democrats have been saying they want to codify legislation to ensure that women have rights to abortion, health care. that is gonna be some of their running campaign. this is something that republicans are banking on. let's just see if is the backlash of roe v. wade. is that actually gonna hurt them at the end? >> well it is only person on the panel that was around in the 90s. i know he knows. reed's book, camilla thank you. >> i was born in 1980, nine i am young. >> next. inside power rising we're gonna talk to some black women who organized. this is one of the largest gatherings to political engage black women. we are talking with --

she is here with the mission, at the momentum and the message from this week's gathering in atlanta >> in battleground

states like georgia, wisconsin and pennsylvania. all of the states we've been talking about. amplifying the calls to get out the vote is absolutely critical. thankfully, some of those calls are getting louder. they are not yet loud enough. the past few days participants for the power rising have been leading in atlanta. they're in georgia which is a crucial state this year. arising is a place for politically active black women to turn their power and influence into action. i'm so pleased to welcome bishop leah daughtry into the

show. she's one of the co-creators of power rising. i must note the -- once in 2008 again in 2016. to restore conventions among so many other accomplishments. we are so happy to have you. can you talk about some of the conversations you in the participants have been having? what is your hope for this year's power rising summit? thank you symone for having me, we just concluded the summit. it's been three days of this gathering place by, foreign about black women. of course, the conversation was centered around rights in this country, our freedoms in this country. a lot of talk about the overturning of roe v. wade. we were sent to just a multiplicity of issues that concern black women who are talking about education, how to be active in your community and

we want to power and encourage women to go back to their homes, back to the communities to do whatever they need to do to move the communities forward. hundreds of women from all across the country who came to be empowered in light and. also just got out the, vote build businesses, run for school board another office back home. they, ship you talked about the issues of democracy than on the ballot. a woman's right to make decisions found her own body. how effective do you think democratic candidates have been in this moment? what more can and should they be doing. >> i think the democrats have done a pretty good job at helping the results in kansas, for example. voters defeated that referendum by very large margins and i think there is more that can be done le pen for what's really

at stake. i think it's more than just a medical -- it's really about our fundamental rights as citizens of this country to have a freedom to make a decision that is right for us. it's consultation to people that we want to consult with. it's in order to help people really understand what's at stake when it comes to roe. but i think that's across the board. as well and said earlier, it's about intensity -- >> they ship, folks out there northern only a cool convenor of rising. you are also one of the color girls. one of the four or five women -- someone argue six in some cases who little black are likely

would've not had the opportunity to work in the arena of democratic politics. you have seen a lot. i think critical moments in history of black voters, especially black women voters have showed up and made a difference. but this election is not just on black women to do their part. it's not a lot of folks. what concerns about 2022 and beyond? >> le pen one thing that with his voters of color, that's not major the minors. we're not gonna find a candidate that's going to agree with us about every single thing. there is no perfection. so, we need to find a candidate who's gonna most aligned with our values and push them. we have stacey abrams, raphael. it's led by our congresswoman. we've got to consider the issues that canada best represents.
