our brother silky. >> thank you, rudy. i want to commend you on the work in you're doing and let you know i and we appreciate you allowing us to be part of what's going on. due to covid, we have to do it virtually. it's better to do it virtually than not do it at all. you still thinking about those that lose their lives to the violence and senseless killing that take place in the community. that's one of the things that we're very, very, pushing and i'm tearing up because i lost my brother two years ago to senseless killing in louisiana. we're very, focused on getting these guns off the streets and you know like you say, we're not against the second amendment. we want to get the illegal guns off the streets and bring awareness to gun owners that you can take your gun to work and leave it in your car and it becomes illegal gun on the street. this is important for us to make sure that we get weapons out of the hands of the criminals that's committing senseless acts of violence in our communities. to have the police departmen

it goes to rudy's knowledge if these were false. if he believed them, he would have said that in law. the risk as a lawyer is you can get sanctioned by the court. get fined, thrown out of the bar even. so i think that's a good indicator. another interesting detail here, rudy didn't just say something once. sometimes one statement that a person says you can argue well, maybe they misspoke a little bit or were misunderstood. rudy made the statement dominion complains about here, dozens of times, 50 times. it's harder to run away from that. >> dominion writes, after we asked him to stop his claims, he said he would love discovery. we are here to remind him, discovery is a two-way street. >> reporter: i see a bluff called there. discovery is when the party exchange information here. rudy was puffing up saying i can't wait to get the information from you, dominion, it will prove my wild theories about venezuela venezuela. dominion is saying bring it on. they're pretty confident that there is no information. on the flipside, they will see

what would a mid-evil trial by combat even look like with rudy? keeps his broad sword in his pants "oh, is the fight starting help me with this zipper, honey. [ laughter ] i mean, imagine being such a trump dead ender, that you're pinning your hopes on a guy who got duped by borat's daughter. although, i will admit, yesterday, even i was inspired when i heard the song that played when rudy entered the rally. ♪ macho mach ma macho macho ma i've got to be a macho ♪ >> seth: do we real believe these people know the intricacies of the constitution when they don't know the context of "macho man? and then yesterday, rudy sunk even lower after the insurrection when he called up newly elected alabama senator, tommy tuberville and asked him to keep challenging states to stop the certification process or, at least, he thought he was calling tuberville it turns out rudy accidentally dialed up a different senator, and then that senator released it >> senator tuberville, or i should say coach tuberville, this is rudy giuliani, the president's lawyer there are

rudy giuliani is now one of those people, given what's been going on, it's not clear the role that rudy is going to play in the president's impeachment trial. he was expected to take part in it. so that remains to be seen. i want to note something else my colleague just noted. john eastman is this attorney. he was the one who pushed the birther conspiracy about kamala harris and whether she could be vice president. he joined the president's legal team in december. he's been helping with these false claims about the election and, of course, he was let go from a university where he was teaching because given everything that's been going on, he's agreed to retire immediately. we just found out that he may be an attorney representing the president when it comes to that impeachment trial given the president is still trying to cobble together some kind of legal team and legal strategy ahead of that trial. >> john, what are you looking for in terms of -- given that. given that maybe giuliani is on the oust. eastman is in the ins. what are you looking for in terms of the defense for who will th

i remember rudy going okay they'll see. and pence to my word trump called up and said make sure he doesn't go. >> ewe believe the trip was cancelled because they didn't agree to announce the investigation? >> there's other the chain of events that was the key to where we are today. after that, take a look at what transpires. within the next couple days they realize that now they get word because obviously pence cancels they get word pence is not coming. they realize what i was telling is true. >> vice president pence has his planned trip cancelled. after you were unable to get the government to commit announcing investigations into joe biden. do you know if vice president pence was aware that that was the quid pro quo? that was the trade and in fact why his inaugural visit was called off? >> i'm use a famous quote. everybody was in the loop. >> you believe pence knew what he was -- knew his trip was contingent on investigations announced? >> again, i mean, i know he went to poland also to on trumps behalf. he couldn't have

that brings us to rudy giuliani, john. apparently there's a rift now, and rudy giuliani's calls can't get through to president trump. i mean, you can set your watch to the time when a close ally and close friend is then, you know, summarily dismissed by donald trump. we've seen it time and again. because number one we're told the reporting he didn't like the $20,000 a day bill that rudy giuliani was giving him to represent him. >> i'd pay half as much to get myself impeached. i think if i was going to get myself impeached, i'd pay $10,000. >> you know a good bargain. guess what, he's not going to pay rudy giuliani? i mean, we could have told rudy giuliani that a couple years ago. >> reporter: yeah. loyalty is a one-way street for donald trump. he only cares about himself. that is the flow through of his presidency in addition to lying. so, you know, look, rudy giuliani is in a distinct category in that he's had a direct role in two impeachments of a president. that's, you know, quite the legal counsel. but the approving ex

rudy didn't advertise? he'd be going door to door asking people if they committed a crime, or he'd be on fox news selling pardons like it was qvc. of course this is how the trump era ends, with the faux populist president mulling pardons for wealthy, well-connected allies he's already used his pardon and clemency powers to help out accomplices and close friends like roger stone, paul manafort, michael flynn, and jared kushner's dad. in one of his most heinous acts, he pardoned four blackwater mercenaries convicted of murdering innocent iraqis. and yet even with trump considering up to 100 pardons there's one guy in his inner circle who reportedly can't get a pardon, and he sounds a little peeved about it. >> i do not need a pardon. i don't commit crimes. i do have a risk i have a risk that these crooks will try to frame me like they tried to frame donald trump try to frame me. let's see what happens i know you'll do it. and i know you've been trying to i have not committed a crime i am not getting a pardon.

giuliani, rudy giuliani.otus lost the election, rudy crisscrossed the country, pinching out his arguments in court in a desperate effort to overturn the legal results of the election, which ended with one win and 64 losses. one and 64. a record known as "the knicks," i am told. by nose who follow such things. but now, and i know it's hard to -- i'm mostly into the sea shanties these days. why are you trying to get me off that? just because you weren't on the sea shanty train when i was. i was way ahead of you on the sea shantdy thing. everyone knows 2021 is the year of the sea shanty. come on, grandpa! get in the boat, we're rolling out to the sloop and going after the sperm whales. what are you doing? you don't have any buttons. you can't do anything at this point. just read? wow! my apologies to everybody. but, now -- and i know it's hard to believe, the president has turned on rudy, and refuses to pay him for his legal work. sucks for giuliani. now he's going to have make money on the side, bottling uncle

rudy giuliani spotted at the white house.he senate trial and how to defend trump. and then in the middle of the night you get the trump campaign coming out with a curious statement. i think we can put it on screen. he tweeted out this saying trump has not made a determination which lawyer or law firm will represent him. and then notice how he goes on here and tries to turn the claims about the riot into claims about the impeachment. he says it's a disgraceful attack on our constitution and democracy known as the impeachment hoax. sorry, but words still have meaning. the impeachment is real. it is not a hoax. and by the way, why does trump still have a campaign apparatus? he lost the campaign more than two months ago. it is notable pushing back on rudy giuliani saying, hey, not so fast. trump's not sure who is going to represent him at the trial. rudy said if he proves the voter fraud lies are true or, quote, true enough, then that would let trump off the hook because you can't incite violence if you were telling the truth. th

rudy giuliani accuses dominion — sorts. rudy giuliani accuses dominion of— sorts.exercise of free speech. but dominion say they have had to spend half $1 million in security and fighting disinformation because of allegations against them. they now seem intent on replacing the court of public opinion with a court of law. mark labelle, bbc news. and new zealand, over the weekend, 20,000 mosques in hastings. the oxford dictionary says that 0xford dictionary says that moshing is to dance to rock music in a violent manner while jumping up and down and deliberately colliding with other dancers. not much of that over here then, nor in the united states stop in fact, we are not likely to see live events like that happening anytime soon. but the bad the flaming lips have come up with a typically ingenious way of playing live while staying safe. it brings a new meaning to the saying stay in your bubble. wayne coyne, the leasing of the flaming lips explains —— the flaming lips. i have been doing it as part of our sort of theatrical freak out stuff at our concerts since i've s

rudy giuliani said, even steve bannon was shocked by rudy giuliani saying it and asked him to expand on it and he couldn't. >> well, what's amazing about it, ali is that at the end of it when you cut it off when bannon goes to, you're killing me. you're killing me because steve bannon knows he's going to get sued by us also and he is and so is donald trump who is rudy giuliani's client and rudy giuliani is acting on his behest, but look, it is very difficult to sue somebody for defamation or libel in the united states, but our lawyers are telling us that rudy is well across the line so we're thrilled about this. it's the weekend, obviously. our lawyers are working and as soon as we're able to we'll take action and it won't be a frivolous lawsuit and again, in a country with the first amendment we're all public figures and we're all involved in the fight, but what he said was ludicrous and was untrue, was defamatory and if we can sue them, we're going to sue them. i think we'll -- >> what do you make of this kind of nonsense? who is he relying on? the idea that people don't have acces

because we know the sdny which rudy used to run before i was there is investigating rudy reportedly fore time he may be lobbying for his clients, he also is lined up for a pardon. if the president pardons rudy giuliani, it will be ultimately corruption for so many reasons. other than a self-pardon, i think the most corrupt use of the pardon power. >> elie, as always, good stuff, thank you. >>> quick programming note. join cnn for all day live coverage of the inauguration of president joe biden, history-making event in unprecedented times. special all-day live coverage wednesday on cnn. we'll be right back.

spotted at the white house this weekend, his personal lawyer rudy giuliani. sources say the president has recently grown irritated with guiliani, but he's one of the few allies the president has left. giuliani telling our jonathan karl he is part of the president's defense team. but the white house has not confirmed who will serve as the president's counsel, even though the trial could begin in days. giuliani, who led the president's failed charge to overturn the election, telling abc news he is open to having the president testify. he also addressed the crowd on january 6th. >> let's have trial by combat. >> reporter: the prosecution says they'll be ready whenever the article of impeachment is handed over to the senate. >> we're preparing as though we are going to go in the next hour. >> reporter: the senators who witnessed that deadly capitol hill riot will serve as jurors. >> this was the most serious presidential crime in the history of the united states of america, the most dangerous crime by a president ever committed against the united states. >> repor

did he say anything specifically about the president or rudy giuliani or donald trump jr.? >> reporter: well, certainly anyone who was part of this or incited this, their comments. that is what the u.s. attorney said. including the president. because he was specifically asked. and he said he's going to be looking at everything, to see how that played a role in this conspiracy. and whether or not that incited. it's obvious that it did. but this is something they're going to have to try to prove. and they are going to use some of the words from the president. what we can wind up seeing here eventually, anderson, is that a criminal complaint, an indictment, the words from the president, the words from rudy giuliani and other people who took the stage here yesterday,

but let's talk about rudy giuliani. there's now reporting that the president and rudy giuliani might not be on the best of terms. that's pretty extraordinary. >> well, steph, there are fractures in that relationship. my colleague josh dossey reported last night in our story that rudy giuliani wanted to charge $20,000 a day for his league services, in november and december when he was traveling to different battleground states trying to overturn the election, trying to mount legal challenges, all of which, by the way, were thrown out in court, the claims debunked, the evidence not shown. but nonetheless he wanted a high fee for that and the president, according to our reporting, has now instructed aides not to pay rudy giuliani's legal bills and has demanded that all of rudy giuliani's travel expenses he submits for reimbursement be personally approved by the president. that is a testament to how angry this president is that rudy giuliani was not able to fulfill his promise of making donald trump the winner, of overturni

the point is, rudy is wrong, and bill barr knew rudy was wrong.t ag knew rudy was wrong, which is why he stood up. judges knew rudy was wrong. what do you think happens to rudy? >> so this whole thing brings to mind the phrase fake it until you make it. that's usually used to describe people trying to break through. in this case, my thinking is rudy has been telling they fabulous tells, these lies about dominion, and he keeps going further down the rabbit hole. at some point he assumes his friends in power will bail him out. the problem is his friends in power are no longer in power, so what becomes of this? who knows? he, unlike everybody em, seems to be doubling down on lying. it takes money to get into court. it takes legal fees to fight a corporation like dominion. at some point he will be drained of his resources and/or will get into real legal trouble. so he's faking it. he may not make it. >>> sam stein, we will pick this up later this week, with a lawyer in tow. the lies are on tape, on his twitter feet. we'll stay on this. thanks for spen

imagine, he turns on rudy? trump and expecting to get paid is like having dinner with chris christie and expecting a doggie bag. trump has reportedly insisted on personally approving reimbursements for rudy's travel expenses. and rudy's day rate is $20,000 a day. money well spent. trump doesn't want to pay that. he could've hired gary busey for a hundred bucks to do the same thing. that's a lot for an incompetent attorney. and you'd think for $20,000 a day, rudy giuliani would be able to afford shoes that don't look like he bought them at the frankenstein store. apparently he can't. they say trump isn't even taking giuliani's calls anymore. now the only way for rudy to get through is if someone says his name three times in a mirror. i wonder who leaked this story? maybe it was giuliani's head! but this is what trump does. even if you don't jump ship, sooner or later he'll throw you off it. rudy giuliani traveled around the world, he went from being america's mayor to the parking lot of a dildo store trying to d

so john dowd, former personal attorney, is apparently in on the take here and rudy guiliani, i think, is asking a king's ransom for some of these things. i mean, is this legal and how much are they getting? >> well, the short answer is, we don't know how much they're getting. because there are very few disclosure requirements or rules around the pardon process. the president is one of the unchecked powers that he has that there are few restrictions on and that extends to disclosure requirements. they're not aloud disclosure requirements, if you are a lawyer representing someone seeking a parten, you are advocating for that person before the president, so in the case of john dowd, it's a little unsure both john dowd and rudy guiliani, it's interesting. these are actually representing president trump, you know, in the case of both of them and the mueller investigation in the case of rudy guiliani also in the first impeachment and potential lima ib the second impeachment. and so they're kind of working both side, at least in the case of dowd, who we understand accepted tens of thousands

this morning, rudy woke up to some bad news. manufacturer of the voting machines that rudy claimed stole the election for biden, dominion voting systems, is suing him for $1.3 billion over his baseless election claims. rudy, you've got two difficult choices: a: learn how to win a lawsuit, or b: come up with a way to raise 1.3 billion dollars. i'm just sayin', new york could always use a new bikini car wash. mm-h. as you may recall from memories you've repressed, rudy spent months accusing dominion voting machines of rigging the election on the orders of the gho chavez. but as the lawsuit points out: "dominion was not founded in venezuela to fix elections for hugo chavez. it was founded in 2002 in toronto to help blind people vote on paper ballots." aha! but perhaps the blind people only thought they were in toronto, but were really listening to pre-recorded moose mating calls inside chavez's venezuelan vote farm, eh? the lawsuit claims that rudy spread his lies to enrich himself through his podcast where he exploited election fa

or text rudy to 65 of [ bleep ] 32. >> jimmy: no thanks, maybe rudy could 35i off the damages maybe rudy off his damages in doubloons. team biden is settling in. joe biden's dogs have officially moved into the white house, and they've got a twitter account. this was posted from the oval "pawfice." "together we will paw an american story of hope and yummy nom noms." now -- whoever at twitter banned trump? needs to ban the oval pawfice too. "yummy nom noms." why do we assume dogs talk like idiots? >> they're very smart. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh, we're going to have quite a fiesta for you, guillermo. >> oh, i cannot wait, jimmy sarah huckabee sanders is going to be at it, she's stomping back onto the political stage. sarah, who you may remember from her time lying to us every day for two years, announced today that she is running for governor of arkansas. >> our state needs a leader with the courage to do what's right, not what's politically correct for convenient. i took on the media, the radical left, and their cancel culture and i won. [ laughter ] 1y50 you did . >> jimmy: you did? i do

rudy welcome to going underground especially for the election why have you called today's election the most important in your lifetime well i think there's such a stark difference between the directions in which the 2 candidates would take the country and donald trump would take it in the direction of free enterprise continued growth in our economy which he brought to the highest point it's ever been right before the pandemic beyond any other american president more jobs higher income better growth then all 'd of a sudden we got hit by the endemic in all the democrats were predicting to your depression 25 percent unemployment we'll never get out of it will take years and here we are once 34 months later we had 3 months of record job growth record each month set a record for job growth our g.d.p. growth this year was this is this this month was phenomenal $33.00 and a 3rd percent that's 3 times higher than our record in the best and the end result of all this is where about 75 david percent of the way back we're further back than any any of our allies by far we've got a stronger economy

rudy was reportedly billing trump $20,000 a day.hat trump doesn't want to pay. >> president trump is reportedly taking out his frustrations on his personal attorney, rudy giuliani, by refusing to pay him for his legal services "the washington post" is reporting that president trump is trying to stiff giuliani, who has spent the past few months traveling the country and spreading conspiracy theories about the november election on behalf of the president. giuliani is seeking $20,000 per day in fees. the newspaper says the president has not only refused to pay giuliani's legal fees but has told aides that all reimbursement requests for travel and other expenses need to go through him. >> seth: impeachment was great, but there really is no more perfect way for this to end than trump stiffing rudy. guy spent all that time flying to state capitols, rounding up witnesses from the bars at tgi friday's and buffalo wild wings and now trump won't even reimburse him "so, you owe me for the time i called you into the hearing. it went over on min

. >> rudy giuliani denying an accusation that he was told he could get him a pardon for $2 million.an you tell us? >> this was a meeting that was the former cia employee who ended up paying someone else to try to get him a pardon and ended up paying a former campaign aide to trump's 2016 campaign but was frustrated in the lack of progress, lack of obvious progress on his push for a pardon and so in a meeting with rudy giuliani and a few other folks, he mentioned his plight and when rudy giuliani got up to go to bathroom, we are told one of his confidants told this guy, this former cia employee that rudy could get him pardon for $2 million and when this guy recounted this incident later to a group of friends, one of the friends reported it to fbi because it struck him as a potentially illegaling selling of pardons. there's no evidence the fbi looked into it. rudy giuliani deied his confidant made this offer and went a step further and said the reason why they wouldn't make the offer is because rudy has ruled out the possibility of doing any of this pardon work because he thinks it wo

we've also reached out to rudy giuliani and others who are mentioned in this report. so far, none of them have responded to our request for comment, kendis. >> so where is the president these days? he's sort of been m.i.a., at least publicly. we saw the vice president yesterday thanking troops for their service and yesterday he was in california. but no sign of the president. >> yeah, that's right. the president, someone who has so enjoyed being in the public limelight for these four years he's been in office, now basically out of the picture for the almost two weeks since that riot that took place on capitol hill. in fact, the only real time that we've seen the president appear publicly since then was last week, i was with him in texas when the president visited the border wall. but other than that, he has been essentially behind closed doors with his aides as vice president mike pence has taken more of a public role on a farewell tour greeting troops, thanking them for their service, while the president has been trying to figure out, what is he going to do about imp

rudy, he you did a great job.epublican party. he's got guts. he fights. he fights. that, i'll tell you, thank you very much john. fantastic job. that's a tough act to follow, those two. john is one of most brilliant lawyers in the country and you look at this and he said, what an absolute disgrace that this could be happening to our constitution. and you look at mike pence, and i hope mike is going to do the right thing, i hope so, i hope so. because if mike pence does the right thing, we win the election. all he has to do, this, this is the number one are certainly one of the top constitutional lawyers in our country. he has the absolute right to do it. we are supposed to protect our country, support our country, support our constitution and protect our constitution. states want to revote. the states got defrauded. they were given false information. they voted on it. now they want to recertify. they want it back. all vice president pence has to do is send it back to the states to recertify, and we become presiden

people thought rudy giuliani was going to be involved in that senate impeachment trial but rudy giuliani's been asking people what the plans are even know there is no comprehensive legal strategy. and one other person we should note the president has been lashing out at in addition to mitch mcconnell he's been fuming over is kevin mccarthy. typical republican ally of the president who is very close to him, knows his favorite candy, that kind of relationship. he said today that trump does bear responsibility. and i'm told that the president is furious about that and that kevin mccarthy floated this idea of potentially censuring the president. >> david, some republicans, maybe they would have voted for impeachment but were scared of trump or some sort of retribution or fearful for their lives from the insurrectionists. what do you think of the argument that if they can't do their duty they should resign? >> well, they did what they saw as their duty today, which was to try and do anything to maintain their power. that's why they voted against impeachment. because as you said, i think the big

and the return of minion number one, rudy giuliani. these are the people in his ear. rudy giuliani. with one bogus conspiracy theory, after another. remember when senator susan collins tried to defend her decision to vote to acquit the president in his impeachment trial? i'll remind you. >> i believe that the president has learned from this case. >> what do you believe the president has learned? >> the president has been impeached. that's a pretty big lesson. i believe that he will be much more cautious, in the future. >> come on. really? he sure did learn his lesson, didn't he? and the lesson he learned is that he can do anything he wants. that he can trample all over our democracy, and get away with it because people are just -- i'm just deeply concerned. how do you feel now, susan collins? hmm? what lesson did he learn? that is exactly what he was impeached for. remember when fiona hill testified john bolton refused to get involved in the drug deal, that was their quote, drug deal the president's men were cooking up? >> you tell eisenberg, ambassador bolton told me, that i am not

rudy giuliani has all sorts of criminal liabilities.en under investigation for financial fraud, campaign finance fraumptd i think he has criminal exposure for ukraine, for his role in the capitol riot, and if president trump pardons rudy giuliani, he's also doing himself a favor because if rudy giuliani were ever to get charged crily he could decide to cooperate. that could hurt donald trump so a pardon of rudy giuliani really would help donald trump himself. >> i want to say what i said at the top how some of his associates are making money. some of trump allies have been making in the thousands of dollars from felons' lawyers to lobby trump for clemency. when you read the piece in the "new york times" today they pointed out that bill clinton issued 170 pardons and commutations, some of which went to people who paid these six-figure sumz, so trump's friends making money off of this, after all the outrage with -- with bill clinton, how is this even still allowed? >> you think. i think bill clinton is the best historical example. on the

rudy giuliani, a former u.s.ney, former new york city mayor, talking about trial by combat, judy? >> this is part of the outrageous message that president trump and his acolyt acolytes, his lapdog loyalists, have been spewing for weeks, as steve pointed out, and today, it finally inspired the kind of danger to our democracy that people have been afraid of for weeks. i think if you compare the message of joe biden to donald trump today, you will see that joe biden effectively became the president today. his message was pitch-perfect, and he spoke as a president watched the violence on tv. it was joe biden's responsibility to call this for what it was, seditious behavior bordering on insurrection. it was his role to call for calm, and he did. it was his role to remind americans that we are better than that and that we still need to unite. what did donald trump do? he came out, finally, goaded by his aides to say something to stop the violence. he appeared almost giddy about the violence that his lie had inspired, a
