9:01 pm
alex has the night off, and tonight, nbc the news is we're projecting that republicans will take control of the house of representatives next year. nbc news projects that when all of the votes are counted, republicans will hold 221 seats in the next congress with a margin of error of plus or minus two seats. this will likely translate into a narrow single digit majority. republicans are long predicted to win the control of congress is lower chamber. nobody expected that the election would be this close, or that republican majorities would be so slim in a year where forecasters predicted much larger republican gains. part of the reason for those slim majorities was an unexpected number of endangered house democrats who beat back republican challenges, and
9:02 pm
democrats who won races in unexpected places. to understand how and why this happened, we have to go back to last year, specifically the day before valentine's day last year. it was a sunday, but congress was still in session. that was the day that house impeachment managers were concluding their case against donald trump for inciting the violent insurrection that had taken place five weeks earlier. it looked like they were about to be finished when -- in fact, it looked like all of the arguments were done, it looked like they were going to move on to the final senate vote over whether or not to convict donald trump when the lead house impeachment manager, the congressman jamie raskin, dropped this bombshell. >> last night, congresswoman jamie herrera beutler of washington state issued a statement confirming that in the middle of the insurrection, when house minority leader
9:03 pm
kevin mccarthy called the president to beg for help, president trump responded, and i quote, well kevin, i guess these people are more upset about the election than you are. we would like the opportunity to subpoena congresswoman herrera regarding her communications with house minority leader kevin mccarthy, and to subpoena her contemporaneous notes that she made regarding what president trump told kevin mccarthy in the middle of the insurrection. >> the house impeachment managers wanted to call the republican congresswoman to be a witness in their case against donald trump. congresswoman herrera butler was one of the ten republican members of the house who was voting to impeach donald trump a few weeks earlier. she had good reason to. as you, heard congresswoman jamie herrera beutler was a witness to donald trump siding with the capitol rioters over kevin mccarthy while the attack was still underway. in the end, the house impeachment managers did not call congresswoman herrera butler to be an impeachment witness. instead, they entered into the record a written statement from the republican congresswoman describing what she had heard donald trump say. later that same day, donald trump was acquitted in the
9:04 pm
9:05 pm
former president trump made it his mission to ensure that jamie herrera beutler did not stay in congress. he opposed her in a republican primary, and endorsed this guy, joe can't. interesting character, in an election denier that falsely claimed at the january 6th attack, quote, looked like an intelligence operation, and quote. he called the january 6th rioters political prisoners, and he vowed that he would investigate and define both the fbi and the justice department.
9:06 pm
here is something interesting. many democrats in the republican-leaning district in southern washington decided to pounce on this opportunity. they thought he was a vulnerable opponent, and so some democrats made the decision to vote for can't in washington's jungle primary system, to help elevate an election denier to a top two finish in the hopes of later defeating him in the general election. as a result, democratic candidate -- and joe can't advanced to the midterm elections, ending her six term run in congress. joe can't later lost the general election in the republican leading district, an auto shop owner whose practical in targeted economic message revealed to republicans, as well as the democrats. as the seattle times wrote, where can't re-wrote the history of the attack on the capital, perez talked about apprenticeship and job training. where kent wanted to prosecute anthony fauci for murder, perez wanted more support for small businesses. where kent want to the national abortion ban, she said that she wanted to protect both abortion rights and gun rights. the polling data website, 5:38, gave her just a 2% chance of
9:07 pm
winning that election. but now she is headed to congress. we saw a similar thing happened in michigan's third district, where another republican who voted to impeach trump lost his primary race to a trump backed election denier. that trump backed election denier went on to lose the general election to the democrat, hillary sultan. if there's any question about the role that he played in those democratic victories, look at what is happening in california right now. the congresswoman, david valadao was another one of the republicans voted to impeach
9:08 pm
donald trump over january 6th. unlike the others, he did not lose his primary race. nbc news has yet to call that race, but right now with nearly half the votes in, david valadao is leading his democratic opponent by five points. in district after district, trump backed challenger's lost the race is two democratic candidates who defied expectations with smart
9:09 pm
9:10 pm
candidacy for president in 2024. what did these winners tell us about how they did it? joining us now is one of those democrats -- from washington's third congressional district. congresswoman, congratulations. thank you for being with us tonight. were you surprised -- i was here in this very room with steve kornacki when we called the race for you.
9:11 pm
it was described as an upside. it was an unexpected win. was it unexpected to you? >> i would not describe it as unexpected. i know the district, and live here, i'm a fifth generation washingtonian. this is a district with a proud history of sending independents to congress. one thing that i would challenge is that in our data, it shows that many democrats actually voted in the primary with jamie herrera beutler to support her impeachment vote. i underperformed in the primary substantially, because in our district, we have many american standing up for the middle of the road. that's what we're known for in southwest washington. that's part of what made it so improbable, and so miscalculated. >> this is interesting. when you say you underperformed, and a lot of democrats voted for jamie herrera beutler, your path to victory, in that article that i just quoted. it's kind of like an escape room, you have lots of little clues to tell you how to campaign, and how to succeed. when you say they are not surprised, it's on the basis of a bunch of little things that you saw that joe can't was
9:12 pm
improbable, the jamie herrera beutler did appeal to independents and democrats. you knew that the issues that you would campaign on would be appealing for your constituents. >> that's right. i think they were all hungry for a congress that looks more like america, for people that want to fix things in our country. build bridges, not bring them down. i really respect the principled stance that congresswoman herrera butler took in her vote. i got into this race to stand up against the political extremes. that is why i am so proud to have seen the district. that's part of the equation here. in general, so many moderate republicans, so many independents, and so many democrats really got behind us and propelled us to the front of this race. >> i know that you didn't mean it as a cliché when you say that the people want people to fix things. you actually fix things. >> that's right. we are in independent auto shop, we fix cars, we fix the cars of middle america. people that are just trying to get to work, whose converters
9:13 pm
have been stolen. those emergency funds are going to be wiped out by petty crime. this is what a lot of america looks like right now. >> you didn't delve into -- obviously you had an opponent that was a bit of a conspiracy theorist. more than a bit, an election denier. but one of the things that republicans used against democrats in the past election, two, things won the inflation
9:14 pm
9:15 pm
culture wars. tell us how you skirted these issues. >> just talking about what matters to people. i think we're all really tired of the political agenda being set by twitter. we want good schools, we want to have the cops show up when we call them. i've had my building broken into four times this year, and that gets expensive. we cannot afford to keep going down this road of polarization. our kids need in america that has a level playing field for small businesses, for public schools, for homeownership. all of that stuff deeply matters for the long term economic health, and the health of our democracy. >> tell us about these issues now. you are not going to be part of the majority, but you come there with a deep understanding
9:16 pm
of those issues. inflation in the economy tend to be the top issue for people. you deal with both of them. you deal with unemployment, rising wages, that's part of the reason why people repair cars that otherwise could've gotten rid of or do something else. what do you want to see done so that you stand a stronger chance, and democrats strand a stronger chance versus republicans in the house in 2024? >> i am here to be an advocate for middle america. i think that one of the bleeding edge of that is something known as the right to repair laws, laws that give consumers and independent manufacturer shops like mine, people that own iphones, home medical equipment, the ability to fix their own stuff, it gives people that work in the trades and ability to have a level playing field, to avoid consumer waste, electronic waste, those are all critical issues. when you look at the long term economic health -- and part of that is ensuring that we support career and technical education. our best trade schools all got turned into per computer programming schools. i don't know how many programs you hired last, week but i bet that many people watching this are on a waitlist for an electrician, a carpenter, a plumber, those are jobs that can't be exported. it cannot be off short. we have to do the work that it takes in the long term takes in the long term b>> do you --tool? my brain. so i choose neuriva plus. unlike some others,

9:21 pm
of the senators duly chosen have voted in the affirmative, the motion is agreed to. >> the motion is agreed to. today, the united states senate one step closer to passing the marriage act, a landmark bill that would -- defected the bill cleared this initial hurdle shows that it has a good chance of becoming the law. take a look at that final tally, 62 to 37. senate democrats needed ten of their colleagues to break the filibuster and debate on the bill, in the end, 12 republicans join them. it's inspiring to see this level of bipartisanship in washington post see republicans voting with democrats first in the house, and then the senate, to get something like this down. it deserves to be celebrated. beyond that, it's a big deal for civil rights and equality in this country. it's usually relevant in the
9:22 pm
wake of the supreme court's june decision to overturn roe v. wade, a judicial precedent that mast americans believed was safe, until it collapsed. we've seen a steady erosion of abortion rights with full bans in 13 states, and major restrictions in for others. justice clarence thomas in his concurring opinion on roe was not bashful when he said that he suggested the court could reconsider its ruling on a number of precedents, including same-sex marriage. all of these factors made the procedural vote today one small step, a major move towards enshrining same-sex marriage, and it's the small steps collectively that help move the needle forward. joining us now is the senator, elizabeth warren, a democrat from massachusetts. senator, it's great to see you again. thank you for being with us tonight. >> thank you, it's good to be with you. >> let's talk about this. 62 to 37, it's a procedural vote. it doesn't always go the same way in the final vote.
9:23 pm
this now looks like it's actually on its way to becoming the law. tell us your thoughts on this. this is not exactly codifying same-sex marriage, it's basically saying that the federal government has to respect a marriage that was performed in the state it was performed in. >> that's right, and it's clarence thomas who alerted us to the importance of doing this. now we have built a safety net in case the extremist supreme court decides to overrule the laws that say the case law, we are going to respect marriage, whoever you love. another thing that this does it is terrific, is that it gets rid of an old federal law. about 20 years old, the defense of marriage act. it's still in shrine in federal
9:24 pm
law, but says the marriage is only between one man and one woman. a nice piece of this is to say that we're putting that behind us. we're building a net towards respecting all people, whoever you love, we're going to respect your marriage. that's how it should be. >> does it say anything to you about bipartisanship? there were republicans involved as co-sponsors of this bill, is this just a specific issue, or should this be a harbinger? is this a canary in a very good coal mind about the fact that something might actually happen in this u.s. senate? >> as you know, a single incident does not make a trend line. i would love to see it repeat it again and again, but i really do feel like on this one, there's something very special about it. americans across the country have lived with equal marriage for a long time now. i come from massachusetts where we were the first state in the union to recognize equal marriage, and i think it has been a case of -- across the political spectrum, more people saying what is right is right. that means two people that love each other can get married, and
9:25 pm
they will be treated with respect. i love this moment. >> is there a model here for abortion? we've seen abortions in ballot measures in several states, and have succeeded, regardless of who put them on and how they were where did. that leads some people to think that there is a voter inspired and protected center of protections for abortion as opposed to court protected ones. do you see a parallel or possibility? >> i see one parallel. that is, the very large majority of americans believe in equal marriage, and the very large majority of americans believe in access to abortion. the differences -- let's do one more. we have a supreme court doesn't believe in either one of those,
9:26 pm
and a supreme court that says it is their opinion that should matter, not the opinions of the american people. now what it is that we are. legislatively, it's the case now that you can never -- i don't think we can get an abortion ban in place, but there is an aggressive fight back, you saw that lindsey graham has proposed a nationwide ban on abortion. and so it seems to me that on abortion, it's still at this moment, much more hotly contested, notwithstanding the fact that the evidence from people across this country overwhelmingly say that access to abortion should be a protected right. it's part of health care, as part of economic self determination. it's part of having control over one's own life. we are still getting a lot of pushback from the republicans on that. >> it's noteworthy that nobody got on lindsey graham's bus with that suggestion. republicans, somebody described
9:27 pm
to me as the fall of row, not being the dog that caught the car about the one that slammed into the car. it has not turned out to be winning proposition for republicans. >> it's true, and i think there's a larger message here about doing the things that the american people would like to see us do. i think the access to abortion is one of those. i think the economic measures that we take, i think that when we voted for the inflation reduction act, and we actually put it in place, 35 dollar insulin cap. where we said the billionaire corporations are going to have to pay a minimum tax. those are also things that are very, very popular. that is one of the reasons that democrats did so much better in the midterms than any of the pundits and washington insiders, and even pollsters had predicted. >> let's talk about georgia. this thing is not over yet. there were a lot of people that
9:28 pm
that republicans would be less invested in herschel walker if this was not about the balance of power in the senate. there are a lot of democrats who think they should be more invested in raphael warnock at this moment in order to get some of the things that you just talked about done. a 50/50 senate still does not give progressive priorities that somebody like you would hope that they would have. >> i would very much help that raphael warnock wins his reelection. the number one reason for that is because he is a good and decent man. i sit near raphael in the senate, and i watch him day after day as he fights for the people of georgia. he fights for what is right. he's one of the people that led the fight to get the 35-dollar cap on insulin for seniors. he's one of the people who led the battle to make sure that health insurance was more affordable, and to get cuts in the cost of health insurance. raphael is a man that lives his values every single day, and he
9:29 pm
brings that to the united states senate. and so i'll just be honest, it's the number one reason that i hope he is reelected. he's a good man, and he georgia will be well served. >> what about another minute left his values every day, donald trump is running for president in 2024. we had a lackluster launch to that campaign lasting eight, apparently people are trying to get out. trying to indicate to support for them, it is a competing network across the road that kept dipping out of the announcement, something the people would never do. in the past, is it you are now assisted on trump is losing his last year and hold on republican party, and possibly the country? >> we beat him in 2020, we beat him in 2022, and we can beat him again if he is going to run for president, if he's the republican nominee. i've given up on predicting when republicans will finally turn away from donald trump. i mean that. she, i'm one of those people that backed when he -- republicans are at least going to start distancing themselves from it. i was wrong. but i thought it for sure, when all that came at the first time
9:30 pm
he was impeached, there were republicans that had to distance themselves. i was wrong. i thought on january 6th with the insurrection, this is surely it, this is surely th posit wiagain, obviously that was no the case. man like that. >> we remain confused back, thep wasn't. ven the maga crowd tried to leave but couldn't. when the judges prosecutors investigation of donald trump shifted into high gear, we'll be talking about that when we come back as well.
9:32 pm
9:33 pm
9:34 pm
9:40 pm
presidential primary this season is to stay out of it. i don't have a dog in that fight. >> i don't have a dog in that fight. the leader of the republicans and the senate saying he doesn't have the dog in a fight of a leadership in his own party. the former vice president, and endorsing hypothetical candidates that have not even been announced that are running over trump, the guy that shows him. as for the newly reelected leader of the house, kevin mccarthy, reporters swarmed him all day asking for a statement on trump's announcement. he refused to say anything. today has been brutal for the former president, and you would think that without the conservative press, without big money gop donors, within the leadership of the republican party on his side, you would think that he could at least turn to his own family. think again. this is the instagram story posted by president trump's oldest daughter, ivanka, after his speech last night. quote, i love my father very much. getting ready to prioritize my young children in the private life that i'm creating as a family. -- strong showing so far.

9:46 pm
governor reelected brian kemp, testified before a special grand journey jury and fulton county. fani willis has been investigating trump's effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election in that state. of course you remember, just a few days before a pro trump mob launched an attack on the u.s. capitol, audio of a call between then president trump and the georgia secretary of state, brad raffensperger, leaked to the public. and we learned that the lame duck president asked the top elections official in that state to, quote, find 11,780 votes. which would be just one more vote than the 11,779 margin that he lost by in georgia. fulton county district attorney willis has been conducting a criminal investigation since february of 2021 into that call, and other efforts by the former president and his allies to subvert the vote in georgia. investigation had appeared to come to a halt during the midterm campaign season, but it appears to have moved back into full swing this week. in addition to hearing from georgia governor brian kemp yesterday, the grand jury in fulton county heard from gasping adjacent today. after trying very hard to avoid, lindsey graham is slated to testify before the grand jury next week, and former secretary newt gingrich the week. after not to mention michael
9:47 pm
flynn was ordered by a florida court yesterday to testify, but his lawyers have indicated they're gonna try to block that from happening. mark meadows has also been ordered by a court to testify at the end of the month. the timing on that could change. how might the wrap ramping up a special grand jury proceedings in georgia affect the former president turned 2024 presidential candidate? about a year ago the brookings institution revealed a report with a known facts of the investigation in georgia, gathered from publicly available evidence. they published a second edition of that report this week, concluding that, quote, trump is at substantial risk of criminal prosecution in fulton county. joining us now is the author, one of the authors, of that report, gwen keys fleming, former district attorney of dekalb county in georgia, right next door to fulton county. she has known fulton county da fani louis for years. thank you for joining us this evening. >> it's my pleasure.
9:48 pm
thanks for having me. >> so we like people who don't know anything about grand jury some prosecutions, on the basis of everybody who has testified so far, the information that we know, publicly, how close do you think da willis's two can pleading her investigation? >> i think there are some reports that she is looking to make final decisions by the end of the year. when you think about the time left in this month for the special grand jury to be able to wrap up the witnesses that you just described, possibly published their final report between now and the end of december, that still gives the district attorney time in december to go before a regular criminal grand jury if the special grand jury decides that there is a mix of recommendations that there is sufficient evidence to bring charges. >> our lawyer experts on these shows always tell us don't
9:49 pm
assume an outcome. never assume what is going to happen. could you help me assume what is going to happen? do you think we can expect an indictment of the former president? >> i think prosecutors could assume what could happen, they would love to have that gift. you are absolutely right, but there is no way to tell what these 23 or so residents are going to conclude in the special grand jury room. i think the district attorney was right to be able to get them to hear some of the evidence that she has. so this is actually a preview of what an ultimate jury that goes that far would think about her evidence. so again, we don't have a crystal ball. we don't know what the recommendations are. the bookings report that we wrote, which, again, is based on the publicly available evidence. so the da knows a lot more than we do. we have outlined a few crimes
9:50 pm
that we think could be salient based on the known facts. that includes false statements, conspiracy to commit election fraud, and possibly a rico indictment. >> listen to, what we just talked about the people we know again, publicly, have been subpoenaed, the trump world people, mark meadows, lindsey graham, michael flynn, new gingrich. it looks like she's going to get testimony probably from all of them. there are efforts to delay what she like to get the ball down. is there anybody we haven't talked about who you think would be central to the investigation, maybe has not been subpoenaed yet? >> i think folks largely have
9:51 pm
been subpoenaed. it's a question of whether they will actually testify. i'm specifically talking about some of the alleged fake electors that she has indicated she wanted to hear from. i think they would be very critical, not only in outlining what their actions were in terms of citing those documents and ultimately being delivered to the national archives on january six to be counted in lieu of the actual votes from the biden electors. and so i think those folks, again, not only would be able to provide insight about their own actions, but also could ask them to participate. that may reach people higher up in the trump circle. but again, none of us know that at this point. only the special grand jury would have that information, and the district attorney hopes to gather more testimony. >> is it your sense that don trump's announcement that he's running for president again and anyway affects the family louis 's investigation? >> prosecutors have fought brought charges against people who have been elected to office all the time. this is a special case in terms
9:52 pm
of reaching of former tech president, but bottom, line every district attorney takes an oath to pursue evidence or pursue charges without fear, favor, or affection. that means she will go forward if she has the evidence, without being fearful of the former president, his defense team, or whoever else may be opposed to the prosecution. she is also not going to do it to gain favor with others that may want this prosecution. being a da has a high responsibility, and it is her job to be able to and protect the integrity of the criminal justice system by following the evidence. the fani willis that i know will do exactly that. and leave no stone unturned. >> well, i know that you have coauthored a report based on public information, but the rest of us where that public information would not have been able to do it without minds like yours. so we appreciate you not only doing it but coming in telling
