are reacting. >> we've always pursued this investigation and calling in whoever we need to as the information of the facts detail. that's why you see that we've asked the central figures in the effort to overturn the 2020 election to turn over documents. as well as provide sworn testimony. >> look, he's made it clear he has nothing to hide. that's what he says. he should come in on the day we ask him to common. if he pushes off beyond that, we'll figure out what to do next. >> in a moment i'm gonna talk to oversight committee member gerry connolly, about the former president as well as new unleash material about the secret service. and as i mentioned, or 23 way days away from the midterms, one day from early voting in a key state, georgia. with two races on the ballot that are major. a live report on that coming up. it's been one month since the killing that sparked a national rebellion in iran.

i'll talk to one woman trying to make a difference for the young girls and women in the country. there are so following a developing story the arrest of a suspected serial killer in the state of california. the latest developments on that are moments away. we want to begin though with the latest that we're hearing on the possibility of the former president actually testified before the january six committee. joining me now at politico kyle cheney. what reporting do you have on this, kyle, the possibility, the room or whatever you want to call it the former president may actually agree to testify if he gets to do it live. and if the committee is willing to negotiate with him on this testimony? >> look, i think he's the one witness they'd make a lot, they'd agree to conditions to get him in front of them. i don't think it's actually a real expectation that it will happen. if donald trump says, i'm doing, it going and no one can stop him.

we've seen him often go against the advice of his attorneys. but he's someone who is attorneys are working overtime in many different areas of criminal liability, whether it's january six itself, or mar-a-lago, the documents that were seized there, classified documents. other things like that. he's facing criminal liability in must travel different arenas. not only related to january six. the likelihood of him coming in and exposing himself further, it seems remote to me. the committee expects that. could he threw a curveball, sure. no one's really counting on. that >> considering the possibility of criminal liability. and the fact this is a subpoena that they're issuing. could they demand what they warned of him, versus him making the demands. then they couldn't ascent say, no, we're gonna offer a criminal referral and move on from this thing. >> in theory, yes, the subpoena by congress of a former

president is not unprecedented. it's extraordinarily rare, it's never been successfully enforced. if they say were calling the shots, here is how we're gonna do it, and he says, no, i'm gonna fight you then that legal fight could take years just because of how complicated it would be. he's not the president anymore, separation of power still may apply to a former president in certain ways. i think the courts have to take a long time to go through that. the committee only has a couple months left. >> whether this becomes somewhat of a negotiation as it did before the debates, if we remember way back when, there was a moment i believe it was after the debate that was hosted by chris wallace. in which they said, we're gonna have the ability to turn off your microphone when you're not speaking. and if there be a back and forth negotiation with the former president. we're gonna do this live. but if you start spewing lies, we get to turn you off. >> i could envision that except

i think in some ways they want to let him talk. get him on the record. these warren testimonies is something that the president's been very averse to, the former president. before letitia james, he pleaded the fifth 400 times. he didn't font -- if he's talking, they may let him talk. i think the bottom line is, having him in the room under any condition is a win for them. he may want to use it for his purposes if it ever got that far. i think that would be part of the deal. >> we know the doj's investigation is ongoing is happening right now when it comes to the documents that were seized at mar-a-lago. i do want to talk about the reporting that you have when it comes to a special master. trump's brief to the appeals court is june a temper time, a court panel could hear arguments in late november

december. of course referring specifically to those 11,000 or so unclassified documents, that the special master is currently reviewing. we know the doj wants the special master to be dropped altogether. that aside the, what is the real timeline for when those documents could be returned to the doj, to further their investigation? >> this is the big question. if the special master goes to completion. he probably well by the end of november, early december. that's still a whole set of procedure where trump can challenge the report of the special master, judge cannon gets another crack at this. she gets to decide whether the special master's report will stand. back could take months beyond the special master deadline. this is why doj wants to speed up the appeal. they need those 11,000 documents as part of a criminal probe. yes our investigation is about classified documents, but those 11,000 unclassified documents

that were mixed together with these classified records, they could tell us a lot about what witnesses were involved here. what the timeline was, the dates on those documents might tell us something about the relevance of the classified materials, and who saw them, who pack the boxes, move the boxes. -- but i did. and that tells you what kind of threat to national security. >> kyle cheney thank you as well always. good to talk to. you joining us now is gerry connolly, member of the house oversight committee. congressman, thank you for joining us. let's talk first. >> great to be with. you >> let's talk first about the possibility of the former -- january six committee. if in fact he agrees to abide by this subpoena. do you think the j six committee should be negotiating with them if in fact he wants to do it live? >> it's not uncommon. for congressional intelligence at the issuing -- to negotiate with potential

witnesses. on terms and conditions. however, it's also general practice that witnesses first deposed under oath. before he or she may be called to a public session. the january six committee announced last week that the ninth hearing was its last. so, there is no plan for an additional public hearing. obviously, donald trump wants to make this a public spectacle should he consent. but the committee is a very serious committee. it's filled with lawyers, former prosecutors, who know their business. and they want to have him under oath, in a deposition. i do think there is a risk for donald trump here, where they to have a public session under oath, and he does what he did in new york. plead the fifth, that's a terrible -- about. trump >> for donald trump, how do you think it would look for the j six committee if he were

to plead the fifth the entire time, if he were to appear live under oath and then continue to plead the fifth? >> i think the january six committee would look like it was doing its job. committee would look like itther opportunity, he declined to use it. he sees himself in legal peril, perhaps and legal criminal peril. >> let me play for you deborah riggleman, for a time who work for the january six committee. his thoughts on the subpoena. >> i think part of that 14-page letter you saw, again, is part of his program of relentless radicalization. it's a letter that could've been written by sydney powell, ginni thomas, rudy giuliani -- qanon people themselves. i think what he's trying to do is to get oxygen back into what -- that's what the subpoena might have done. >> congressman, what do you make of that? >> well, certainly there is

that risk. i do think donald trump's 14-page response to the subpoena is nothing more than a rant. reasserting his false statements about the nature of the election. and whether it was rigged, what the outcome was. i think the january six committee is certainly, at its last hearing proved conclusively that first of all, he knew that wasn't true. secondly, he knew he lost the election. and he decided to waive all that away, to keep the fires burning in the most -- of his base. which, tragically came to a peak on january six. so when he incited the crowd to storm the capital, and perpetrate violence to overturn a free and fair election. >> as a member of the house oversight committee, i want you to weigh on the revelations we've heard in thursday's hearing about the secret service. specifically, lack of

transparency, the communications leading on january six, and the information they had, the intelligence they had as to what could've happened that day, or what was gonna happen and not acting on it. what would you make of it, for the investigation needs to be done when it comes to the secret service and their actions on that day? >> it was publicly known that radical groups like the three percenters the oath keepers the proud boys ron open sources urging people to come to washington on january sex. and that they had violence in mind. i can remember january 5th -- to reporters from political. what did i expect the next day, january six. frankly, i fear there will be violence. because of that, through public services, we knew this was a possibility. but the secret service has been

monitoring these sources. apparently they failed to communicate to lawful authorities and law enforcement authorities at capitol hill, and the district of columbia as to what they knew. it's an enormous breach. it cost lives. it almost up ended the democratic process in the united states of america. and the secret service has explaining to do. >> i want to talk quickly about the midterm elections, 23 days away. you have some concerns you've been quoted as saying, it's a high stakes race. saying specifically to political, the stakes are high here and we need all hands on deck. you're talking specifically about not leaving millions of dollars on the table to make sure they have enough fund raising money, enough money raised to challenge some of the seats. in which you fear democrats may possibly lose in the midterm elections. do you feel like enough is being done, do you think your party understands the stakes here? >> yes and yes.

my colleagues are responding heartedly, to the threat. and to their sense of responsibility, their own personal responsibility. i'm not really worried about that. we're trying to collect outstanding amongst dues to the criminal -- but that's not a chore. that's not like pulling teeth. people get the nature of the threat. i think everybody understands, we need to be all hands on dak. we don't need to go to death on four. the stakes couldn't be higher. january's -- make it very clear. we have a good, strong, fighting chance to hold the house. it's gonna require enormous effort, lots of resources, and a little bit of good luck. >> congressman gerry connolly, thank you for joining us this sunday afternoon. >> my pleasure. >> let's get to a breaking story even following. about the serial clawed under arrest in california after half a dozen killings.

police say they believe they stopped the suspect right before attacking another victim. and scott cohn is in stockton for us. this is shocking stuff, scott, walk us through what they know about this individual. the timing of his capture. and what's next? >> yeah, as you said, yasmin, what police are saying is they got him as he was hunting down his next victim. this has been a process that really sort of blew up about a week and a half ago when police released this grainy surveillance video of a man apparently walking away from a camera, and said he was someone they were looking at as a person of interest in this string of killings. it all happened within generally a short distance of each other. they were five of them here and stopped him, another one in oakland. and then a seventh incident where the victims survived, they say after that, there was

just a flood of tips from the public. we soon learned that there was neighbors in this area at the say that they have some chilling encounters with the suspect. >> i stood up because i was on -- people were seeing that i was looking scared. and when i stood up, i turned around, my back towards my door, i look to my left and i just see him. standing right there. he had his gun in his hand. he was wearing a black hoodie, black pants, black shoes. he was wearing a black mask. that's when we made eye contact for at least five seconds. everybody -- everybody was. >> that same outfit that the neighbor describes, is what police say he was dressed as when they caught up with him in the wee hours of yesterday morning. in custody, is 43-year-old wayne brownley, they say he's a

resident of stockton he's moved around, and he has a criminal record. they have an elaborated on that. there's so many unanswered questions now including if this is the person who did this. what was his motive, we may name or in the next 24 to 48 hours, he's expected to be charged and appear in court on tuesday afternoon. >> a community resting easier there this afternoon. scott cohn for us, thank you. still ahead, a look at the big moments happening this week as we move closer and closer to the midterms some highly anticipated debates to early voting and key states like, georgia. and the fight against alzheimer's in one texas town where the disease is running rampant. our richard louis takes us there. >> i never ever would've thought that i would've -- i know that, one day, i'll be able to call you and say, richard, guess what we made a difference. >> first, protests continuing in iran over the death of mahsa amini, following her left by

moran. where state media is sending the dish where that four people have been killed and more than 60 others injured after a fire broke out at tehran's prison. the facilities known for housing political pressures. gunshots, explosions could be heard in villegas voted online yesterday. the iranian judiciary said the fire was caused by a fight between prisoners and his sewing workshop and say it's unrelated to the ongoing protests sweeping the country. nbc hasn't confirmed the cause or number of deaths and injuries. today marking exactly one month since 22 in year old mahsa amini died in a hospital, three days after being taken into custody by the morality police. sparking a wave of protests. iranian state media reporting that 60 people have died in the

crackdown of -- putting the number at 144 as of october 3rd. and bc hasn't independently verified those numbers. human rights groups say that -- was found dead after heading to join the protests. as was a niqab struck around me, they were just 16 years old. this photo shows -- alleging they died by suicide by amnesty international disputing that. saying they were beautifully beaten. nbc news has independently verified that. the new york times writing that as. in life, nica and serena were happy teenagers who sang danced, giggled with friends, roamed shopping malls, and pose for selfies, in-depth their faces have come to symbolize a national uprising to topple the islamic republic. that has thousands of young people on its frontlines, and mahsa amini as inspirational spark. i want to bring in moj -- cofounder of beauty united.

moj thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. >> what is what has this meant to you seeing these protests take place over the last four weeks, being led by women in iran, and knowing the fragility of their lives amidst all this, the risks they're taking. >> thanks for having me on the show. i appreciate it. i know there hasn't been a ton of cover on the press, media in general. really grateful for this exposure. i want to take a moment to give my condolences to the many iranian families that have lost their children, sisters, families over this absolute massacre and bloodbath of the past 30 days. frankly 43 years of absolute terror. your question is, what does it mean to me. as an iranian american in position of power, privilege, who has influence and -- i feel that it's my duty to connect with my fellow iranians,

in the united states, europe, everywhere we can to come together. to, despite our political or societal differences, come together to lean in to help bring justice and correct the wrongdoing of the islamic republic over the past 43 years. this has been top of mind, all any my friends talk about nonstop for the last 30 something odd days. >> you've had an experience with the morality police back in 1991, what happened? >> yes, you know there's moments in your life where you realize how incredibly privilege you are, how delicate life can be a we were there to celebrate my uncles wedding this is after being a strange from her family for decades. because of the iran iraq war. we were sort of an opportunity that we can go be reunited. and my sister and i went out with my two cousins for friday night i scream, to drop off my hand.

we were pulled over by the -- from there, it became an absolute 24 hour of terror, being held overnight, gunshots, destroyed property think about my mother and how she came -- how lucky she is to not be currently one of these political prisoners. having a firsthand experience, with unleash tear like this give this gives you a passion to lean into what you can to support the iranian women in iran. >> what do you think people that are watching should be doing now, what should the global community the people that influence should be doing to prop up iranian women specifically and to help in this effort? >> look, what's happening here isn't just about iranian women this is about all women. about women having agency over their bodies, voices, being able to be divorced, choose what they want to marry, choose how they want to spend the professional lives, their education.

we're seeing a movement all around the world, that's looking to limit the rights of women, trans people, gay people, minorities in general. if we don't force correcting catch this moment, this regime has got to be held accountable for the crimes against humanity, crimes against women. and if the entire u.s., european world does not lean in and hold him accountable for what they're doing, these things will be copycat it and this will be camaraderie that every other nation that wants to continue to be women will find this as permission to do so. >> this is urgent. >> what does accountability look like to you? what does it mean? >> i think there's a lot of things that people are calling for, our people are calling for looking at how they're gonna manage nuclear deals, discussions about sanctioning the assets of these lab james, families and their assets in the u.s. and europe. the freely being able to move, all over the united states and canada, up until about a week

ago. their children are living with freedoms of american europe. there are many ways that we can lean anywhere. first and foremost, getting accurate reporting of how many lives have been lost, how many people are being detained, they took 500 students from sharif university last week, these are the most bright, intelligent students of the entire iranian public. it's an actual atrocity that you have a president that's filled with they're saying, up to 20,000 people. we're talking about artists, journalists, we're talking about film directors, students who are simply just trying to practice their freedom of speech. not even that they have an experience with us. they've been watching the internet, watching content, seeing tiktok, seeing instagram and they're craving for freedom that they themselves have never experienced, they're demanding it, they're gonna push for it. >> tell me about the -- that you and others have started raising 375,000 so far. where is the money gonna go?

>> yes, so, our good friends at gofundme worked with us with about ten people involved with the iranian collective. there's about 70 of us that are sort of congregating within a track route. organizing essentially a large out of home campaign, both in new york, l.a., d.c. and we're looking to drive awareness and why the mainstream press isn't covering -- begging them to cover it. and asking that all western voices lean in and see this for the humanitarian issue that it is. we're talking about 12, 16, 17-year-old being shot and murdered in broad daylight. i think these are the issues, look, we all need to hold people accountable that are committing crimes against humanity at this level. this is an absolute atrocity. it's gender oppression. it's gender apartheid. >> as a member of the mainstream media, we're

covering it and, moj, we thank you for lending your voice. >> we appreciate you so much. thank you for leaning in. we'll keep you. posted >> thank you, moj. we'll be right back everybody. ight back everybody. customizes your home insurance, here's a pool party. ♪ good times. insurance! ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

are critical right now when it comes to both the senate race and the governor's race specifically for the democrats? >> it's interesting, yasmin, we're seeing two different strategies from the democrats at the top of the ticket. in this crucial battleground state. stacey abrams and raphael warnock. abrams is running for governor again after coming close but narrowly losing in 2018. she's putting more of a focus on mobilization organizing. her theory of politics has been at their large chunks of disaffected americans and states like georgia. we don't typically vote. look at the mobilize and inspire to vote act empower democrats -- she's trying to do that by highlighting a populace, progressive platform. things like raging teacher pay, ascending childcare funding, affordable housing. those are the issues that stacey abrams is running on. in that governor's race against brian kemp. meanwhile, on the senate side the dakar -- raphael warnock's putting more

emphasis on persuasion. he's making direct appeals to those voters around the atlanta suburbs. they used to vote republican, but they've been turned off by donald trump, and are interested in voting for democrats. but not solid democrats either. one of the things that he was anticipating in the debate was for his opponent, herschel walker, to attack him as a -- president biden. he was prepared to respond. i want to replay what he had to say. >> you haven't stood up to biden. if you're standing up, united states -- which gave us an open border, it gave us higher inflation, which gave us crime in the streets. i stood up to the biden administration so they can keep opening this calm about training readiness center. with our congressional delegations to do that. i worked across the aisle time and time to get good things done. for the people of georgia. i'll work with anyone, stand up against anyone i need to stand up against to get good things done for georgia! >> and specifically, warnock

went on to tout his partnership with the republican ted cruz to build highways in the south. he mentioned his partnership with the alabama republican, tommy tucker belt, protect farmers in the south. this is the strategy that raphael warnock believes is gonna power him to victory. keeping a hold on those crossover voters that used to support republicans, recently one from trump to biden in 2020. and i'm not really sure how they're gonna vote this time around. brian kemp the incumbent republican governors making a similar play for that type of moderate independent voter. it's one of the reason he appears to have a lead by five or six points in the governor's race. it's gonna be a crucial debate tomorrow between camp and stacey abrams. for stevie abrams a particular chance to turn this around and give herself a good shot at victory. >> and we'll all be watching. sahil kapur, thank you. let's bring and -- i want to start specifically were sahil left off. in the state of georgia.

and i want to talk to senate race and herschel walker, what we heard on the debate stage friday night. let me read for you -- what he had to say about that. i think walker has a lot of nerve. he has no business in the senate. i think he's unfit for political office, period. but he did a surprisingly effective job of showing that while he has enormous shortcomings, he will necessarily come up short in a republican friendly year in a republican friendly state. what do you make about that assessment? >> the bar so low, right? -- all of a sudden we're giving -- the man barack faith trough. we find out he has a new child every week. and people [inaudible] medicare expansion and reducing insulin cost. what did he say, he said people just need to eat better, eat right. thoroughly qualified and a man who according to his ex wife, physically threatened or, put a gun to her head. this is what happens when we have a false equivalency,

yasmin, we create a parallel ground between both parties. the bar is lower for the republican party of herschel walker. to the point where he doesn't -- were like, wow, he might make it. as a senator. meanwhile warnock has to walk on water. i think i understand what frank saying, he's not incorrect in his analysis, especially when it comes to the politics and the way we cover it. and georgia, the fact that there's voter suppression, however, i think the revelations are so, so much the fact that -- on abortion. hopefully, it's enough for those independents and those people, the purple voters to decide with warnock. >> you said hopefully it's enough. but it's a really tight race. i don't think anybody would've expected this race to be so tight. especially right with all the things that have come out about herschel walker over the last four weeks or so. that's not of course setting

all -- incomprehensible, honestly. >> look, we're dealing with georgia. a state that has been unprecedented and it's voter suppression against african american voters and democratic voters. especially in the past few years with the grassroots mobilization that led barely to the victory of warnock, republicans are double down and said never again, they make it even harder for black voters and democratic voters to vote in georgia. if those voter suppression wasn't there, it wasn't such a curbing of voting roles, i think that league would be bigger. it has to be mentioned, especially in georgia, yasmin. it's the massive voter suppression effort by the gop to make sure that especially black voters don't come out to vote. i for one, i'm not surprised. everything with republican voters, you could put a deadlifted with a maga hat on its head and run him against a competent, democrat, and you'll still get 40 to 53% in these red states. >> it's about power. people have been forthcoming

about that as well. they realize, herschel walker may be an import -- former president as well. but if it means winning control of the senate to get what they want to cross the finish line, they're gonna do just that, even if it means they need to vote for herschel walker. i need to talk about arizona. karaoke lake, talk about election integrity on cnn this morning. let's listen, then we'll talk. >> there's plenty of evidence, we have seven and 40,000 ballots with no chain of custody, those ballots shouldn't have been counted, -- >> where is the evidence in that? >> dana, there's plenty of evidence, you can find it, i'm happy to send it to your team. the problem is the media won't cover. it >> will you accept the results of your election in november? >> i'm gonna win the election, and i'll accept that result. >> if you lose, will you accept? that >> i'm gonna win the election, and i will accept that result. >> discerning is that all in a nutshell to you. >> how do you cover a fascist

movement. how do you cover a republican party that's been radicalized? how do you cover it? it's the gop candidate for governor for arizona ladies and gentlemen, who's telling you that she won't accept the election results. who's an election denier. a trumpian candidate who promotes conspiracy theory and antisemitism. you're dealing with a radicalize movement, yasmin, it's committed to the big lie, committed to do state conspiracy theories, committed to qanon which the domestic terrorist threat. and we're supposed to cover it as evidence everything is normal. it isn't. and this is the situation wherein. like you said, -- where she openly said, i don't care if herschel walker committed abortions. i just want power. mitch mcconnell openly said, i have no litmus test. they want power by any means necessary, lying, fraud, violence, january six insurrection. they know herschel waters in qualified -- he maybe has been hit in the

head too many times. it's fine, let's make him one of the hundred senators and give him this responsibility as long as the votes the way that he wanted a vote. it's a dangerous place for american democracy. i hope, hope, hope that people understand it. >> wajahat ali, good to talk to. you coming, up in one majority is panic town in texas cases of alzheimer's are two and a half times higher than the national average. richard lui travel there to find out what's going on. and what could be done to help. he's with me, next. he's with me, next
