>> it's a pleasure to have you. thank you for making the trip. former new york governor, george pataki, thank you. alpha will, yum sergeant uri, i appreciate you all. i hope you enjoyed the super bowl in arizona. >> thank you. >> that is all in for this, week alex wagner tonight, starting right now, with alicia menendez. good evening. ht now, with>> good evening chrk you for joining, us i'm alicia menendez in for alex. we begin tonight with breaking news in the mar-a-lago classified documents investigation. abc news, reporting, tonight, donald trump's legal team turned over another folder with classification markings to federal investigators. it was retreated, last month, from his mar-a-lago resort. the folders contents were, apparently, copied onto a laptop, which is important, because it marks the first time that anyone has suggested that electronic copies were made of classified records and trump's possession. from the abc report, quote, trump attorney, james trust, turned over the classification

markings to federal investigators, who also informed agents that it had been electronically copy to a laptop of a current trump aide. abc news learned, after the information was recovered, federal agents retrieved the laptop from the aid. the laptop was not retrieved on mar-a-lago grounds, the sources say. cnn tonight says, in addition to the folder, which was entitled, classified evening briefing, trump's team also handed over an unknown number of classified documents. it also reports, the aid, and owner of the laptop works for the save america pack. they copied the documents onto a thumb drive, and laptop, not realizing that they were classified. the phone drive, also, reportedly, given to investigators. i should say, nbc news has not re-confirmed this reporting. it is customary for us, and is reviewed circumstances such as this. for the first time, it raises the questions of classified materials, electronically, by

trump in his inner circle. it is found in trump's possession, and it is made in january of last year after trump, finally, return to 15 documents of the national archives. outside, it was 184 documents of classified documents referring to matter to the fbi. a month later, june of 2022, after trump sent it subpoena, his legal team sent over 38 more classified documents. at the time, one trump lawyer certify, to the best of her knowledge, trump had no further classified documents in his possession. that was until august of 2022, when the doj suspect in the trump did have more documents and that is retaining a search warrant, and that they covered 27 boxes from mar-a-lago. it was 103 classified

documents. around thanksgiving, with two more classified documents, and west palm beach storage unit one in the president. it brings me today's news, and with the classification markings was copy to the laptop of a current trump aide. they come as fbi officials also confirmed, one more classified documented the indiana home former vice president mike pence after a five hour consensual search. all of this, happening as both men are gearing up to run in 2024. it is expected to do so inspiring. it comes major new developments involving both men in the special counsel's investigation, and to overturn the 2020 election. it was in subpoena for that investigation. it is a main witness in that

probe, and is not far along in this investigation. not only was pence in charge of certifying the election for joe biden that day, and was in there for the building when they assaulted the capitol, and change that the vice president chanted should be hung. it is already said, under oath. it is with trump, and his allies, pressuring both times to impede the countering of the electoral votes in an effort to keep trump in power. it is a january six committee, and with public interviews when they were reckless, not criminal. how will the former vice president respond of the subpoena? cnn is reporting that they expected to claim some limits on sharing details with these conversations with trump. so, what happens next? joyce vance, four former u.s. attorney in the northern district of alabama, co-host

that the sisters in law broadcasts. what a joy to have you at the table. >> it's nice to be with you, especially tonight. >> especially, when are so many questions to you. it is a big surprise to you that the trump team willingly handed over the documents, or is the biggest surprise that some of this has been digitized? >> you know, it is still surprising that were being surprised. there has been a subpoena, there has been a search warrant, classified material impacting national security. you would expect cues o'ree turned at this point. it is shocking, there is still documentation lurking around out there. the reason one suspects it was turned over, is trump is now represented by jim trusty, a former doj lawyer, someone who is able to search for the sort of material because he possesses the clearance. that has been reported, publicly. so, he would have known after how it came to this attention that it needed to be,

immediately, return to the agency. but, ultimately, the real job dropper here is the first time they said that they see indications that the classified material was copied to an electronic media was compromised, either deliberately so, and perhaps it couldn't have been hand. so, i think this is a juror magic new development for the national develop point of view. >> first, i want to talk about this legally. what does it change, legally? >> it is additional evidence that works in the former president's favor. this isn't recovered in mar-a-lago, when the doj executed a search warrant, it would've been very specific about the areas that they had probable cause to search. where have the recovered from? were they removed from the areas that the doj searched? where they intermingled with the former president's personal items?

a lot more questions, and a lot of the answers, bad for trump. >> if they are putting one document on a laptop, on a thumb drive, does it also raise the question that there are other documents that have been put on a thumb drive, on a laptop? >> it does. you need to worry about that, if you are the fbi, if you are the intelligence community. what else is out there? we have seen, with trump, in this case, what we know are at the tip of the iceberg. there is always more, but this is not always a situation like with president biden, or former first president -- vice president pence, where there is a consent search, conducted by the fbi. here, just trump's lawyers, turning things over, piecemeal. >> you talked about national security, so what is to say to you? what is your biggest fear? >> classified documents all have the ability to damage national securities, if they fall into the wrong hands. so, part of what we don't know yet in this new recording is what kind of documents were

digitized. the top secret information tends to be the sort of things that if it is released could do grave damage to the national security. so, depending on what was involved here, and of course, the fbi now has the computer system drives. one of the things that they will look for in their forensic investigation is whether they will be shared further. whether it was any sort of hacking that compromise them. there is a lot of potential in here. >> trump news, this talk about the pence, news do you think he complies? >> interesting question. sometimes, as a prosecutor, essentially, what we call, a friendly subpoena. >> is it have a heart, and ex and oh's on it? >> essentially, you are saying, you are going to come in and testify. you're going to believe that mike pence might have want to subpoena before he testified, and could walk a narrow tightrope, there is some other indication is going to fight some portion of testimony.

so, when you think about it, this is someone who did not testify the january six subcommittee. he led them on a little bit of the dance in till the very end when he said, no, i will not testify. there is a public servant, of a vice president, two things that he might want the american people to know the truth. hillary clinton did that for 11, brutal hours, in the benghazi hearings. we did not see anything like that for mike pence. it's interesting to see how they handle this. >> they call trump's actions reckless, but not criminal. i wonder if you think that is a line he would reiterate, should he choose to testify to a grand jury? >> that is why they are going for their testimony, and when pence made those comments in last december, when he was reckless, not criminal, that is the sort of political conclusion you might draw. it's not up to mike pence to decide whether the former presidents actions were criminal. so, he is a fact witness, and it's as if he observed bank

robbery. prosecutors want to put him in the grand jury what to say, what's involved, what's happened. here, where pence got those very likely is there was an effort to recruit him for conspiracy, to interfere with the government. prosecutors are entitled to get all of the details, and then prosecutors, and a jury, can draw the conclusion about whether anything criminal happened. >> i don't think you have to be clairvoyant to know that trump's team, will likely, claim executive privilege and i wonder if you think you know that from them, or if you hear from pence's team. >> because this happens in the context of a grand jury proceeding, any sort of challenge like that will, likely, proceed in the form of a sealed court proceeding. first, the judge who oversees the grand jury in the district of columbia, houses in the circuit court, and i know some folks suggested that there will be a lot of delay, the trump will play his usual delay game. so, i think, it will not be as long as some people are concerned it might be.

many of pence's aides have, already, testified. their testimony, implementing similar executive privilege type issues, and is likely to me that some of the grand jury the, seal reporting we have seen, that some of those considerations involves the same issues. the courts may dispense with it quickly, and pence may be in front of a grand journey sooner rather than later. >> how the fbi are finding an additional document and pence's discussion during this consensual search. when you think this leaves garland? does the doj end up with the special counsel's? >> it was appointing a special counsel with it, and so far no evidence of criminality with mike pence, of course, that is true for president biden. the council there is a point of political appearances, and doesn't have to continue to stay the sick. they don't need to appoint a special counsel for mike pence. >> i'm always happy to have you, but to have you in person on a night like this, what a treat.

thank you. >> thank you. >> balloon to bring in the conversation yahoo politics reporter, the author of the biography of the former vice president, piety & power. mike pence, and the ticking of the white house. thank you so much for being here. you are right, the subpoena could complicate pence's decision to run for president. tell me how? >> yes, this is something that could potentially shake off, january 6th. still, you saw him talk about it at length, in his own memoir, for the first time. we can see this on the wall street journal raw op ed where he talked about his anger, where he talked about trump's actions as reckless. the problem with that, and the same problem you had with sending your former chief of staff in a long time it is when craig jacobs, to testify to the january 6th committee, which is that, all of it is under oath.

it's not under oath, it's like the rest of the trump era administration looks so it's still coming out. he cannot avoid it. i will tell you, this subpoena, really, you can shirk a house subpoena and, you can run out the clock, and hope that the chamber flips. >> tommy, you are talking a purely legal teams, which i appreciate, but i think we both know that there is a political calculus going on here. especially if you have pence going towards 2024. talk to me to the extent that it is weighing in the decision-making. >> well, he is hedging so much on this. in the last few years, we have to talk for the last 11 years, talking with his folks. but, in the last two years in particular about this issue with him.

so, what you saw when he was campaigning in the midterms, was he was trying to talk forward, talk past, talk about the future of the party, and he just can't. he is such a seminal figure in this historic attack on the capitol. in an attempt to overturn the election. so, i think, when we talk with republicans who are not either former pence aides, or not part of his team, they don't get sucked into this like this wish casting that they have around pence, and his people, in january. you either take it ahead, or you don't. there really is no tightrope to walk here for him. you just kind of pick one. >> when you talk about what little roped are, as you talk about cnn reporting that mike

pence's lawyers might claim limits to what they say about his conversations with trump. i wonder how you talk to pence to respond to the subpoena, and specifically, whether or not his team tries to put guardrails around him? >> it was it this time that he was able to send the cut off to the house committee, and great short, and greg jacob. you can't really do that here. now, again, the choice to talking about earlier is will executive privilege play out? will it be a long-running thing? all things yet to be seen. it's a federal grand jury, and is not a house committee. you can't run out the clock. probably not as well as this one. i think the biggest thing for him, is it keeps him tied, politically, to january 6th. that is something it is a hard maga plurality that we still

see bowing behind trump, and to some degree, desantis. they do not like that. well, let's look to the other side. let's look to the suburban republicans, let's look to the moderates, the former establishment types, the people who are never trump, maybe they were slowly coming back to the party, less than trump wields influence, and pence loses them too. it is shrinking his lane, for 2024. it was already very narrow, to begin with. this does not help them. basically, it ties a millstone around his neck. >> so, given how late that is, is there any doubt in your mind that mike pence will run for president? >> well, you know, a couple of days ago i would have told you, it's probably 99.9% guaranteed, but it arguably has been running for president in the shadow camp, we've all talked with nikki haley, and the rest

of them. but, i do not know how much this changes the calculus. it narrow stings further. they are making a point that pence has been going to the main churches. it's a south carolina access, trying to play, and shore up his evangelical support. trying to win it back from trump. of course, he seated a lot when he joined the ticket, in 2016. he was making the point and you can't just lean on evangelicals. you need to grow. so, what january 6th does is it shrinks his base. it shrinks it back, and pulls them backward. arguably, because they haven't really addressed it yet, still. >> tom lobianco, politics reporter for yahoo news, thank you for joining us tonight tom. we have a lot to get to tonight, including a new effort to fight

department of defense was tracking high altitude objects over alaska airspace in the last 24 hours.

with the object was flying at an altitude of 40,000 feet, and posed a reasonable threat at the safety of the civilian and at the recommendation of the pentagon, president biden ordered the military to down the object. >> it was retired admiral, john kirby, it was shot down over u.s. territory. they were discovered flying over the united states, and was eventually shot down by the u.s. military. officials have not confirmed today, whether or not this new object was also a balloon, and what his country version was. we do know, the second object was notably smaller than the chinese spy balloon from last week. it was about the size of a car, and was also flying in a different altitude. when that made a potential threat to civilian aircraft. we return to the nbc news pentagon, and national security

correspondent, courtney qb. courtney, thank you for being with us. what more can you tell us about the second flying object that was shot down? >> well, not much more. they were shot down only about 24 hours after the u.s. military first detected at. they mentioned it was flying at a slightly lower altitude. this was, probably, one of the reasons that they defended the pentagon -- the president concurred to shoot this down. it is a potential threat to nominate civilian aircraft, and they may be flying up in the area. it was in the last week and a half that whatever this object was smaller, they had a significantly smaller payload. this would, also, give the potential to bring it down, because it would have a much smaller debris field on the ground. the bigger this object is, if you blow it up, especially if it breaks into pieces, potentially, it spreads out over a further area. the third reason is, as opposed

to the balloon they were tracking last week, where they watched it as it came the andalusian's, don't through canada, into idaho, there is only a short stretch a period where it was over an area that was determined it could injure, or even worse, printable on the ground, or infrastructure. in this case, they were able to take this down when it was over frozen water, so there was a high degree of confidence that no one would be heard on the ground. one thing i find interesting that they learn to be today, and it was here with last week's balloon. it was moving south, southeast, the whole time. according to the pentagon today, this one was moving northeast. it may have actually just been blowing with the wind, as opposed to being, maneuver or driven. those are the kinds of questions that we are asking, trying to get an answer to, and i understand that the u.s. government is saying that they don't know who this all belongs to, or have a whole

identification. one of these viewers said that they knew pretty quickly, after they detected the bulletin last week that it belonged to the chinese. it was confident, and a surveillance aspect, and it stands to reason that they would have answers to that with that about this one as well. >> it was so much more in their object. any indication that was already in the air when the u.s. shot down the first one. >> it was before they knew what their hearing, when they found out last week that there was an enormous spy balloon that was flying over the u.s., there was some concern that one of the things that they're doing is dropping smaller objects. it was so many difficult sensors to detect.

with one question has, this could've been dropped by the previous balloon, and is according to the u.s. officials, there's no indication that was the case. it's an excellent question we're here, more and more, ever since the first disclosure and in the week now is the chinese spy balloon, learning more, and more, about these instances is all sorts of them all over the world. it is a fair question that you don't have that answer yet, and another thing that we found fascinating about today's disclosure is that they did last week, the military, and nor rant sent f-22s up. it was a dual purpose. here's one thing that had these advanced sensors, and radars, they can get up close to this object, get a sense of what it is, and there also is the ability to take it up, you aimed missiles on it going to

shoot it down. so, it's always been fascinating to me that in both cases they chose the f-22 to both go in, and get a look at the potential connecticut asset with it. >> i'm always so impressed by your reporting. going down to the national security correspondent, thank you very much. still to come tonight, including a latest effort, for freshman congressman, george santos, we'll take accountability. will it work for ron desantis culture war? not confining his own state, and talk about the so-called war on woke. that's next. next. ♪ ♪are you ready for me♪ ♪are you ready♪ ♪are you ready♪ when cold symptoms keep you up, try vicks nyquil severe. just one dose starts to relieve 9 of your worst cold and flu symptoms, to help take you from 9 to none. for max-strength nighttime relief,

is featuring promises in schools across the sunshine state. we've seen the state's department of education project math textbooks, and the way the states deem problematic. the states university already canceling courses a florida might consider indoctrination. we have seen elementary school classrooms, libraries, papered over with construction papers so that teachers can avoid felony charges for displaying books that the state determines to woke. i want to do that on camera. woke. governor ron desantis so-called stop woke policies has a never ending quest to vanquish a critical theory rates when mike dungeons and dragons. they said, it was like some of those culture war results may begin to sleep into high school classrooms across the country. the new york times is in frequent contact for a year, as it develops its first advanced place from african american studies programs.

nevada, a share of the congressional black caucus. congressman, i know you are not from florida, you are from nevada, but i thought this was relevant for two reasons. one, this is now what was taught nationally, and it would seem was, at least, changed to some degree, based on what ron desantis, and legislators in florida wanted. this may be their guy, come 2024. so, what he imagines to florida, and could be a vision for the nation. >> it's not an issue that they face with the congressional black caucus rejecting the attempts by ron desantis, or other governors to wipe out black history, which is a part of american history. as we celebrate black history month, it is important that we instill the true meaning of what it means to share that history with everyone. black students, as well as non-black students.

several members of the congressional black caucus, joyce beatty, jamal bowman, and quasi-and who may release the package of bills themselves, promoting the importance of african american history as a part of american history. we will be, proactively, advancing those policies this congress. >> as a student of history myself, as a mother of two daughters, granted, they are young, so not here yet, i just wonder if, without learning intersectionality, without learning about the history of incarceration in this country, without learning about the concept of reparations, whether or not you can understand race, and racism in this country, whether or not you can understand systems, and structures in this country, that have been built on a racist foundation, and whether or not you can understand something like a conversation we're having today about policing in america? >> look, ron desantis, and others like him, are ideologues, who are trying to divide

america. rather than bringing us together, to share the unique experiences, culture, and history, that we contribute to making america great. black america, immigrants, from all over the world, have made america what it is today. we are not going to tolerate the discriminatory policies of ron desantis, or any other governor in the country, who attempts to deny our true history. >> talk to me about the conversation your having on capitol hill around police report. what do you think, is actually, possible, given the congress who are operating in? >> what is great about this week is that president biden used this moment of the state of the union speech to speak to the spirit, to the hearts, of american people around public safety, and accountability. we believe, bad policing has no place, like any american city, and we believe that while

promoting the culture of policing, and face the community safer. i would think the parents of tyre nichols, and the gallery who heard the president speak of transparency, accountability, and standards, and is working to advance in a bipartisan way. >> they want to provision added to that would require officers to intervene. a provision added to the george floyd officer act, requiring officers to intervene when they witness misconduct. do you think it is possible? >> it's a basic standard. it won't force went, and first responders is bearing in memphis that watch that meeting occur, and nothing to intervene. it is now looking among others, and it is going to be passed meaningful reform to keep all community members faith safe.

this is not a black, brown, or white issue, this is a public safety, and accountability issue and, all americans should agree, every community deserves to be safe. >> with that flame, what does it look like, legislatively? >> it is an education, for example, in memphis. it was three times more on black residents, than white residents. it is such a comfort that we have to collect the data. there police departments across the country, and we need that data on the basis and transparency, they need accountability. it is uniform every single day, and they want to go home at the end of the shift and coming at the end of the day. they have accountability for the bad actors, and finally, they want to instill better

standards. people cannot move from department, to department, that we have standards, helping uplift the progression, and provide them with the resources that they need to mental health social services, to community violence intervention, actually making community safer. >> i have 30 seconds left, but i want to talk to you about the shelby county tsa reviewing cases related to the scorpion unit that was involved in the death of tyre nichols. would you see that is being part of the answer here? >> many of these special units are then empowered to have pattern in practices which then happened to the bad policing that we saw in memphis, that should not be tolerated, in any community in america. >> congressman, thank you so much, especially in the studio. thank you so much. when we come back, the battle republican congressman, george santos, facing increased scrutiny from the federal elections commission, and a new effort to get them kicked out

a election over his campaign fundraising and, expenditure since the midterm elections. this is not his first time with the commission. the fcc raised questions over his campaign experience, those asked by the justice department to hold off on any actions against fcc, requiring those who raised, or spent more than $5,000 in the 16 days for the threshold. commission sent to santos earlier this week and is in previous elections of the cycle, was contributions and expenditures, and the 2024 candidacy in excess of $5,000. thus, meeting the definition of candidate. the fcc has asked congressman santos to declare by march 14th is running for reelection is about racing, and spending funds. but, whether or not they will last in congress in 2024

remains to be seen. house democrats filed this resolution would expel from congress, setting his litany of lies, the pattern of fraud, and deception, and the team has, extensively, covered for decentralized today after this requested any, and all police reports, filed by santos, during the summer of 2021. the nypd said, it is unable to locate records that fit the congressman's claims, made on a brazilian podcast, back in december, that he was robbed in broad daylight, and had issues stolen that summer. joining us now, democratic congressman robert garcia, and expel santos from congress. he's also the president of the freshman class in the house. congressman garcia, good to see you, thank you for joining us, what are the chances that kevin mccarthy would bring a resolution like this to the floor? >> thank you for having me. if speaker mccarthy chooses to

not bring the resolution, i'm doing everything we can to force the resolution over the floor. george santos is a fraud, he is a liar, he's lied about everything. 9/11, the holocaust, the lgbtq massacre, supple shooting, his career, his education, the office seized under is under investigation for financial fraud. so, if we're not going to expel george santos, who do you expel? this is someone we don't even know who he is. kevin mccarthy should be ashamed of supporting him, of giving him access to classified information, which he now has. so, we are serious about expelling him, and we are starting to get interest from republicans as well. him,>> and that brings me to my next question, because i want you to go with me through this thought exercise. you have it as republicans already calling on him to resign, republican congressman from new york and supports his explosion. i understand this is a big if, but if it was brought to about,

-- we're >> going to try to build that case. first and foremost, first he's going to the house ethics committee which is the next step. we're going to wait and see if we move this onto the floor if they choose to not move on the floor. we're going to try to force a vote. we think that there are enough republicans to get that done on the floor. that's going to be up to house republicans, they're actually trying to bring somebody that represents the constituents. his constituents have been very clear, they want him out. every republican i've talked to wants him out as well, behind besides kevin mccarthy, for his own speakership. we're going to do everything we can to force a vote and put republicans on the record to see if they actually support this person and we don't even know what his real name is. >> he's a serial lie, are apparently still lying, he said

that senator offered him words of encouragement and told him to hang in there, buddy, ahead of the state of the union. telling msnbc news that -- help us understand, what are the repercussions are there for a member of congress who lies about things as small as that, and as big as who they are. >> first there's a couple of things, the house committee is doing a serious job of investigating all of his possible crimes, and so it's very clear that he's committed financial crimes, finance violations. that's been clear, that will come out, i think he's going to be held accountable for his crimes, and the congress can hold him accountable by expelling him now, in addition to absolutely no way that san jose is going to get reelected if he actually hold on for that period of time. there are multiple ways that he will have to own up to his lies,

and quite frankly, those lies can come down on him. he's done some horrific things. clearly, you don't know where any of the money that he got from his campaign. he's told multiple stories about his business background, and we don't know which names he's used in the past that are actually his. this isn't just a small embellishment, maybe getting a couple of dates wrong, this is a serious fraud. >> indeed. there is reporting from the washington post today a republican congressman of florida suggesting that she might have all also -- she claims she has documents that support her claims. let's just back out, this is a member of congress that says that she believes that donald trump won the 2020 election. she's a person that was endorsed by donald trump, somebody that set the standard for dishonesty. i want to ask you about a bigger picture, congressman what happens to our politics?

what happens to our legislative bodies? what happens to the democracy if there is just no consequence for lying? >> first of all, i think we have a lot to go, this situation what we're in, donald trump. donald trump is a liar in chief, he's the conman-in-chief. he's allowed all of this to be okay in large part for the american public, and with his base. i think these lies are beginning to expand across the caucus. i'm not suggesting differ members of congress, but congress has to be a place of society, a place of true facts and science. donald trump has done his best to destroy all of those. are you seeing folks like george santos and others ally, and then continue on. these kinds of lies exist with donald trump, they would be out of congress, they would be resigning. i think it's really a shame for the institution, and quite frankly, there are so many republicans on the other side

of the aisle that all agree. the mayor discussed it, mitt romney and others, troy center, and so i'm going to continue to call them out. we can't have this level of serial lying up in the house. >> especially because this is happening here and abroad about accountability. california congressman robert garcia thank, you for your time tonight. we'll be right back. nerve care company. nervive contains alpha lipoic acid to relieve occasional nerve aches, weakness and discomfort. try nervivenerve relief. age is just a number, and mine's unlisted. try boost® high protein with 20 grams of protein for muscle health versus 16 grams in ensure® high protein. boost® high protein. now available in cinnabon® bakery-inspired flavor. learn more at boost.com/tv shingles. some describe it as pulsing electric shocks or sharp, stabbing pains. ♪♪
