alarming new report from the house judiciary committee day. in 2021 believe it or not your federal government began asking banks to sit through private transactions for millions of americans and search for terms like trump and maga, so which banks voluntarily handed over that information? and what did the doj do with it? the house judiciary committee chairman jim jordan will join us with more on this orwellian and frankly dangerous breach of personal privacy. needless to say the 2024 election cannot happen soon enough. thankfully, we are just six days away from the new hampshire primary. one important note, unlike many other primaries, the granite state allows independents and democrats who register as independents to participate in the republican race. over 4000 democrats, by the way, are now independent. they will want to vote, it looks like the boats will be directed toward former ambassador nikki haley. she is performing well among those two groups. expectations are high. as of tonight donald trump maintains a large lead in the state of ne

but i do think there was support in the house, surgeon hi in the house judiciary -- certainly in the house judiciary and oversight committeesthat resolution. and it'll go to the house floor, i think, quickly thereafter. maria: so you believe you will get all of these depositions done by the end of january? some of the people you just mentioned? give us your sense of what the most damning evidence is that the you have so far on joe biden regarding bribery potential, money laundering? these are the terms that you and your colleagues have been using. where's the evidence, and do you believe you're going to find more from these depositions by the end of january? >> i do, to the last question. the most, i think, damning evidence thus far is what we got from devon archer when we -- hunter biden's business partner. he says what they were selling was the brand. remember, there was never -- there's no business here. they're selling access to the brand. the brand is the big guy, the brand is joe biden. devon archer said that. the best way to tell this story is through hunter biden's' interaction and joe biden's interaction when hunte

house judiciary committee is out with details of how far the government was willing to go to try to trackdocuments obtained by fox digital, federal investigators or asked banks to search customer transactions suggesting key terms that would raise red flags. those red flags, terms like maga and trump. they warned banks that customers who purchased are religious texts could be a sign of a home grown violent extremist and wanted to know what customers shopped at dick's sporting goods, cabela's and bass pro shops, the government basically profiling the type of people they think could be persons of interest involved in january 6th. >> at the request of government, you've got banks searching private transactions of their customers for key search terms, keywords. it looks like without any warrants, without any legal process. this is financial surveillance at its worst. >> reporter: the treasury department declined to comment. the house judiciary committee says the investigation does not end here, they want to bring individuals in for depositions and are subpoenaing more documents to understand h

. >> reporter: the voice you heard was jim jordan, the chairman of the house judiciary committee which also is going -- currently considering a resolution to hold hunter biden in contempt of congress. the expectation is both the house oversight committee and judiciary committee will at some point approve those contempt of resolution -- after that it is expected that really a remarkable moment on capitol hill today as we saw the showdown between congressional republicans and the president's son. >> thank you for the update. let's go to the white house with mj lee. we heard from press secretary -- in the last hour and she would not answer directly as to whether the white house knew that hunter biden was going to show up on capitol hill today. >> reporter: that's right. the white house had been quiet all day long about this issue since we saw hunter biden on capitol hill and i'm just coming out of that briefing where, as you said, the white house press secretary fielded a number of questions about hunter biden's appearance on the hill, including the question of whether the white house had

consent to include an article published by norman eiseman, former impeachment counsel for the house judiciary committees. house republicans have spent months searching unsuccessfully for a smoking gun in the joe biden impeachment investigation, instead of admitting failure. they are now going to another target in their frenzy to impeach anyone, no matter how baselessly homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas is being charged. >> i ask unanimous consent to enter a homeland security tweet, october 8th, 2021, consistent with the dhs border barrier plan, at cdp, in co■cordination with the intent cancel the remaining border barrier contract located within the laredo sector and all order barrier contract located within the rio grande center. >> w■o■pithout objec, so ordered. >> i ask for unanimous consent to include in the record, a book by the esteemed lawyers, explaining to mr. higgins' point, the fathersthat met founders understood high crimes and misdemeanors as limited to serious misconduct that inflicted injury on the state itself. the term erences over policy and personnel. >> without objection

house oversight committee is holding a meeting this week to consider a resolution that holds hunter biden in contempt of congress after the first son defied the subpoena last year. here's house judiciaryman jim jordan with me yesterday on sunday morning futures, watch. >> we think the key witnesses with going to come in this month. we are going to have rob walker, eric schwerin, jim biden, kevin morris, we think we'll talk to this individuals this month and we'll make a decision. maria: what does contempt of congress charges mean for the 0r biden. >> it will go to the justice department, it will be the attorney general's decision whether he will press charges. it could be up to a year of jail time for failing to come and comply with a deposition for subpoena, subpoena deposition to be interviewed by congress. remember, merrick garland has prosecuted steve bannon, peter navarro for failure to show up in front of congress when they were requested for -- subpoenaed for a deposition. so we'll see what happens when that goes to the attorney general. maria: well, well, well, a lot of really important points made there, congresswoman. and you know, the whole year in jail is a joke because yo

>> the house judiciary committee obtained documents that showed that the financial crimes enforcement section of the treasury department had suggested that banks look for terms like maga or trump in zelle payments after january 6th. so, yes, beginning january 15th, banks were gathered by the treasury department said we recommend you link for certain terms linking people possibly to january 6th and making sure they don't go ahead and make any more violent crimes surrounding the inauguration. >> sandra: there must be a legal process to go to a bank and obtain this information. we are hearing reports one bank handed over information to the fbi voluntarily and with no legal process? >> exactly, that was bank of america and they said the banks, i'm sorry, the treasury department gathered them on january 15th, before the inauguration, it was bank of america and other banks. what the treasury department unit did was send along a slide that actually was created by a small bank called key bank, key bank did not respond to fox news as request for comment on this report, but key bank came up wit

i have the materials sitting at the dais, i'm sitting in the united states house judiciary committeei've got the book. the book in question. there's no ban of books on rosa parks like they were all books s throughout all of the districts in florida, and and that was all there. that was all false. i be we did have a book stating -- sitting in front of us, i literally couldn't turn the book around a to the camera for fear that on c-span a child would see what was in the book. i don't want that in the elementary schools. that that's not a book ban, that's a pornography if ban with. that is protecting parents and childr florida did. >> yeah, not only that, that brings up another thing -- [applause] they will say, oh, they're not allowing this rarks book. so you go into the library, and there are 12 rosa parks books they didn't just happen to order this other one and and they try to say you're that's the thing, with a curriculum, you're making judgments about what should be in or not be in. and if somebody's doing something that'sird grade, takik out and saying that's a bad choice, as adu

an alarming new report from the house judiciary committee in 21. believe it or not, your federal government began asking banks to sift through private transactions from millionsamerin of and search for terms like trump and maga. which so which banks voluntarily handed over that information? and what did the doj do with it? >> now, the house judiciary committee chairman, jim jordanhr ,will join us with more onwe this whole wesleyan and frankly, dangerous breach of personal privacy. needless to say, the 2024 election cannot happen soon enough. now, thankfullely, are just six days away from the new hampshire primary. x daysaway fronow, one importane many other primaries, the granite staty e allows independents and democrats who register as independentspend to participate in the republican racentsrticipate. over 4000 democrats, by the way, they're now independentmoc they're going to want to vote. it looks like thos, e voteits wl are being directed towards former ambassador nikki haley. l beshe is performing well amonl those two groups. expectations are

the house oversight and judiciary committees voted to advance a resolution holding biden in contempt house vote on the matter. the talk is of hunter showing up yesterday unexpected to capitol hill making a surprise appearance during the contempt hearing. south carolina congresswoman nancy mace called him out. watch this. >> coming into the oversight committee, spitting in our face, ignoring a congressional subpoena to be deposed, what are you afraid of. you have no beep to come up. hunter biden should be arrested right now, go straight to jail. maria: congressman, your thoughts. >> she's right. peter navarro, they obviously charged him. steve bannon, they charged him had. they're civilians. hunter biden, you may be the president's son, but you're still a civilian. so i think he walked into that oversight committee, he sat there with a bunch of goons around him and he spit in the eye of congress is what he did. we must hold him accountable. i believe congress will hold him accountable. but in the end, nothing happens to this guy. donald trump gets reelected and the old man pardons him

uh, the, uh, the uh, the house of representatives oversight committee, who today voted to, um, hold the hunter, binding in contempt of congress. yesterday. the house judiciary committee voted to do the same thing. so now it's good to go before the full congress to see of hunter biden is held in contempt. i mean, this guys got more problems than i don't know who. steve, a former president obama reportedly believes there would be incalculable damage if donald trump is re elected with michelle obama saying issues concerns about the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. what i want to know is, if that's truly the case, why are democrats so adamant about joe biden? being the democratic nominee when his approval ratings are so low. and it is a mystery. there was a time about a month or 2 ago where some top democrats, who were to fill the ation with obama in the past. started saying, oh, you know, maybe he's going to consider dropping out. maybe he should consider dropping out. according to your job, i know was interviewed today. i name is nbc. he has no intention of dropping out. i personally don't think he's going to be the nominate. i personally think that

the house judiciary committee pointed out many vetting failures with your daughter's killer.ort shows that he was arrested for association with ms-13 before he came to the united date, something they verified easily after the murder, unfortunately. and like you said, the report was released after he was arrested. do you think secretary mayorkas has done an adequate job vetting illegal aliens coming across the border? >> no. if he was vetted, he would've never been allowed in. he would've never been allowed to come here and commit that horrific crime with my daughter. >> thank you for your answers, and i'm very sorry for your loss. >> i'm not yelling at you. >> it's okay. i'm from new york. i'm not yelling. this is just how i talk. >> i was telling you i wasn't yelling at you. >> miss dunn, quickly, the united states is in effect, in crisis, and is being inflamed by the open southwest border. it's resultthe past few years. fentanyl is highly addictive, incredibly potent, and that's why it's a favored drug for traffickers. i'm sure you've answered this already today multiple ti

a new report from the house judiciary committee reveal that during the justification of january 6th theed for home grown violent extremists. jim jordan asked the banks to conduct the search using terms like trump and maga. to it track gun purchases they asked the banks to query terms like bass proshops and dick's sporting goods. in other words, you if bought a jockstrap at dick's, you could have ended up on a federal target list of domestic violent extremist. i knit my own. it takes 2 balls of yarn. domestic violent extremist ises a mouthful. what the democrats really mean is republican. they justify this by investigation january 6th. i don't think anyone got more out of a single date than meghan markle went home it harry. the excuses are as weak as joe's urine stream. they said the searches were begun under the previous administration. you are already in a hole. two more shovels full and joe and hunter can talk to their chinese partners face-to-face. if they were using trump and maga while trump was in office they were investigating the supporters of the sitting u.s. president. like jo

house should hold him in contempt. that is something that needs to be voted on in both the house committee, which will happen on wednesday, the house oversight committee, as well as the house judiciary committee also taking up this matter. this 19-page report, the republicans argue that hunter biden's deposition would be critical for their investigation into joe biden, president. they're trying to establish that hunter biden took action that could help his -- his father financially or that president biden acted officially in a way to help hunter biden's business dealings, though they have yet to prove that link. they believe that hunter biden's testimony could uncover some of the details that they have been searching for for months. now in the report they say mr. biden, that's referring to hunter biden's flagrant defense of the committee's deposition subpoenas while choosing to appear nearby on the capitol ground to read a prepared statement on the same matters, it's contemptuous and he must be held accountable for his unlawful actions. the committee goes on to compare what happened in the democratic-controlled house where they are holding trump advisers steve bannon, peter navarro

he came not once, not twice but five different times for the house judiciary committee, the senate intelttee, all run by democrats at the time set behind closed doors, listened to the lawyers and answered all their questions so darn junior can come five times, hunter biden can come once and talk about all of these millions of dollars that didn't buy anything but influence and access to the vice president, now president of the united states to there is plenty their the democrats conveniently leave out of all of their statements. >> jared kushner was there and everybody else because i was sitting in the room while they were questioned by adam schiff, they did not go off the sub subpoena. >> we are going to vote him in contempt and sent him to the department of justice and will garland prosecute a biden like he prosecuted bennet and navarro? that will be before the american people in a few weeks. >> mike walt in the great state of florida, thank you for joining us on the sunday night. >> hunter biden pleaded not guilty on federal tax and gun charges in california while president trump's law

so you've got the house judiciary committee chairman jim jordan, he's requested a transcribed interviewetwork and fbi officials. your reaction to this. because it seems like a real broad overreach for the banks to be using search terms like that to label people specifically and i can think of instances where if you were looking at other groups of people and trying to label them in certain ways, there would be complete outrage from the public as a result of it. nicole. >> absolutely. again, here we go again with the different treatment of individuals. that is why i walked away from the fbi. it was a career that i loved but over and over i saw the difference in treatment of how we treated certain individuals on one side of the political spectrum and those on the other and it's entirely unacceptable. what's most alarming about this situation is that the fbi went to some of these banks, we are aware of bank of america, and said, look, can you please turn over the transactions between january 5th and 6th of 2021 and the bank did turn over information, a list of those that had done credit and

he came not once, not toys, five different times for the house until committee, house judiciary committeenate intel committee all run by democrats atommirats the time, sat behindn doors, listen to the lawyers, answer theirca questions. so don jr. can come five times. hunter biden can come once and talk about all of these millions of dollars that didn't buy anything but influence and access to the vice president and now president of the united states. there is plenty of precedent there that the democrats o conveniently leave out of all of their statements. >> trey: yeah, not only did donald trump jr. buthe jared kushner and everybody else because i was sitting in the ooroom will while they wereby questioned by adam schiff. they did not blow oftheyf the subpoena. >> so trey, we will hold him in arcontempt and send him to the department of justice. and will garden prosecute a biden like bannon and navarro? that will be before the american people in just a few weeks. >> trey: mike waltz from thewalt great state of florida, thank you for joining us on a h sunday night. >> thanks, trey. >> trey

both the house oversight committee and the house judiciary committee are expected to advance a resolution that would refer hunter biden to the doj and hold him in contempt of congress. that outcome is not expected to change just because hunter biden showed up today. now, whether that changes the doj's calculation because ultimately they're the ones who have to determine whether or not to hold him in contempt, that's a different question. but after the hearing, hunter biden was in there for about 20 minutes. he left and then his lawyer made a prepared statement and spoke for about 20 minutes and reiterated the point that hunter biden is willing to talk, but only publicly. let's listen. >> the republican chairs are command deering an unprecedented resolution to hold someone in contempt who has offered to publicly answer all their proper questions. the question there is what are they afraid of? >> reporter: yeah, so this showdown really has been months in the making between house republicans and the president's son. as republicans have struggled to prove their argument that the president pro

the house judiciary committee conducted oversight on this receipt of information about american citizenshout legal process and its engagement at the private sector. >> this is surveillance at its worst. we will do depositions and get documents to find out how extensive this was. big government and big corporations working together to financially spy on american citizens. >> again, this is all under the guise of investigating the protests on january 6th at the capitol which is why gop lawmakers like jim jordan and others say their work has only just begun. >> trace: kevin, thank you. let's bring in nobody better to talk about it than former chairman jason chaffetz. i want to read this again. federal investigators asked banks to search and filter customer transactions using terms like maga and trump as part of an investigation into january 6th, warning that purchases of religious texts could indicate extremism. this assault on democracy is amazing. what is your thought? >> this is not the america we want to live. in you are not supposed to be targeted because you go to bass pro-shops. you

here with reaction, chairman of the house judiciary committee jim jordan with us. let's get your reaction first of all. of course they didn't have experience what did they offer? what did they do that gave them 10s of millions of dollars, that is the 50 million dollar question? >> access to the brand. remember, sean, when we deposed even archer. access to joe biden is what they were offering. i think that is pretty obvious from everything we found. continue to work through these witnesses, rob walker, next week eric swearman, rob gorman, jim biden and hunter biden month of february. we have to make a decision do we move forward with articles of impeachment. >> sean: what about eric holder, lois lerner, they were never prosecuted. you were hesitant to give a new subpoena to hunter biden. you would give a second subpoena. he could have been charged with contempt of congress. >> to the peter navaro issue, this is real important h. ability to cross exam is fundamental to our system of justice and fact finding. this was the first committee in history there was no cross-

paul: hunter biden made a surprise appearance data house oversight committee after the filing a subpoena to testify behind closed doors. the judiciaryions rick amending the first son be found in contempt of congress. a vote in the full house could come as early as next week. friday, hunter biden's attorney told house judiciary committees that if a new subpoena was issued he would comply. kim straw saul has been covering the hunter biden saga. what is it republicans hope to get from his testimony? >> pursuing those specific charges against hunter biden, the bigger question, the biden family business. what if any role president biden has in that business. we know david wise is not only not looking at that question, we understand members of the team blocked investigators from going near that. we heard from a lot of people who are hunter biden's business partners, he needs to come in and they need to put him under oath and get information from the man at the center of it all. paul: why behind closed doors as opposed to public where hunter said he was willing to testify? congress is not know for its shyness in front of the cameras. >> th

maria: joining me is chairman of the house judiciary committee, jim jordan. mr.maning thanks very much sister joining us many author -- very much for joining us this morning. can can you talk us -- walk us through what happened with this charge? >> you can mark it up, there'll be amendments offered, there'll be debate. i'm assuming it'll be a ree boast -- robust debate in the committee. but i don't think if you've had a more blatant, brazen display of contempt of congress than this. he was supposed to testify in a deposition format, and he said, no, i'm not coming, yet he comes to the capitol just a few hundred yards away from where we're having this, and he does a press conference. and he said i'm here to answer all questions, i'll do it publicly, i'm just not going to sit down in deposition, and and he finished with that statement and turned away and didn't take any questions from the press. what we would ask him, we would have asked him questions like, who is the big guy? is the big guy the person we all think it is? we all know it is? what actually happened o

and the chairman of the house judiciary committee. republican jim jordan has long tried to undermine the credibility parenting things from the former president calling this a political persecution rather than a prosecution. in his latest eaffort to try to get documents, they have rebuffed these demands. this is what she's saying in part of her response to jim jordan. your request implicates significant, well recognized confidentiality interests relating to an ongoing matter. your requests vai owe late separations of powers and federalism and attorney work product and ongoing litigation. since this alleged romance was made public, she's been facing criticism and now it's coming from all sides, not just foes and allies calling on her to step down. she's yet to address this alleged romance but she's previously defended her selection of nathan wade. the stage is also set for a potential dramatic evidentiary hearing on february 15th. recently we reported subpoenas have been sent out to people believed to have firsthand knowledge of this al

congressman jim jordan, the chairman of the house judiciary committee reupping requests related to the documents of the georgia case. fani willis responded on wade's behalf. she said, no, we will not hand over anything. there's a committee that was formed at the state level to investigate this, too. you're seeing people come from all corners to pounce on these allegations. >> zakharchch cohen, keep us po. >>> we have the author of an op ed that ran this week in "the new york times" where he calls for fani willis to step down in the trump case in georgia. clark, thanks for being with us. you say you have generally approved of the way fani willis has handled this case and that the indictments against trump and his co-defendants are legally sound yet you think she needs to step aside? >> yes. though i want to make clear when i say step aside, i'm saying she should take a temporary leave of absence. i'm not saying she should disqualify herself or quit as district attorney. she should take a temporary leave. as soon as she does this, the risk of disqualification is minimized. if she takes a

he's a member of the house judiciary committee.so served as counsel to senator paul, in the whitewater investigations as well. always glad to have you here. i hate to exhaust this term pandora's box,'s been you so much today. i'm gonna ask you about it. one side says, it will open pandora's box. if you don't give trump or presidents immunity, other side saying no, you have to close it by withholding immunity for actions that are criminal. who is right here? >> i think you have to make sure you have some criminal responsibility, the argument that trump's lawyers make today were just went farther than they needed to go and hit the point of being a bit ridiculous, frankly, that's why they were voluble the stream hypotheticals, like seal team six killing rival. i do think that there's gonna be continued to be some level of immunity for presidents, and every other public official, like police officers doing things in their official duties as long as they're acting in the proper capacity, and proper role. trump scenario, you just have co

community /* >> kaylee: our lead story, according to new letter from house judiciary committee federaltors asked banks to comb through transactions using keywords like maga and trump and dick's and cabela's. search terms scower transactions and mention zelle payment messages for the words trump and maga. imagine the federal government searching zelle for these words and there were codes to detect transactions who reflect extremist tendencies and the words were cabela's and dick's. >> emily: kennedy, you did a fantastic job >> this is hard to appreciate in a five-minute conversation. government outlined typology of average americans including basic points, where you shop and how you shop and a couple words you use and search terms had zero nexus to criminal behavior, zero alleged criminal behavior and think about how police can't execute a warrant or judge sign a warrant without particularity and specificity of limited partnering, the thing to be seized, reason you need it and has to be tied back to criminal law was talk about this all the time, verdicts are thrown out and witnesses can

in april 2022 house judiciary committee hearing secretary mayorkas testified that the country had operational control. that's a lie. in november of 2022, secretary mayorkas testified that the border is secure. that's a lie. secretary mayorkas record is dhs secretary has been shameful in his refusal to build the wall, despite being directed to do so, enforce the law of the land, he has alone in his duty where he had the responsibility to do so has created a crisis at the southern border and proves he is not fit for the job that he currently has. he's been derelict in his duty and to protect our citizens the people we represent, has completely lost the faith of the united states senate and the american people. mr. president, i yield back. >> mr. president. >> senator from florida. >> mr. president, joe biden and his administration pointing i thinkers at everyone but themselves for the crisis they created. and so are the american people. i've visited the border five times and seen it for myself. the crisis at our border is direct cause of biden's dangerous and intentional policies. i've heard it

we just learned in the house judiciary committee that the fbi, the department of homeland security, otherhree letter we banks to record your transactions, oh did you say maga? did you say trump? you put trump on a message and by a bible? you bu date? that might get you listed as a domestic violent extremist to the fbi. to me, it means you are a god-fearing patriotic constitutional american. [applause] and so with all due respect to the other republicans, president trump is uniquely positio rot and some of these places and to get people there who will do what is absolutely necessary. and it will be challenging, but i think this movement is durable because i also sense that2024 is almost a little different than trump 2020 and trump 2016. it is like the same kind of wine but may be different years, slightly different tastes. here is what iwe are doing right here right now. it is so inviting, so interconnected, and it is a little bit of everybody and a little that of america. i went to that rally last night and i saw white collar, blue collar, no caller, no shirt, no shoes. everybody had shoe

the house oversight committee, house judiciary committee, we've done everything by the book.pted every i uncrossed every t and we are in a position -- >> sean: let me ask. >> abbe lowell is quebec basically begging and offering for hunter biden to be deposed without any conditions. steel why give that special consideration. people were upset about it. there's no guarantees going to talk anyway. >> that's a question we have discussed it with a lot of our community members. at the end of the day, we really want to hear from hunter biden. this is about joe biden, hunter biden is a key witness in the investigation. we believe that at the end the day if we make every effort to bring hunter biden in that that will help solidify the final report that we are going to issue to the american people. if he doesn't come in, if he doesn't answer the questions, then he'll be held in contempt. we are still scheduled to vote thursday. we have the votes to hold hunter biden in contempt. the fact that abbe lowell has come back offering to come in and now answer our questions i think shows we we

i'm joined by democratic congressman, steve cohen, from tennessee and house judiciary committee memberhink of jim jordan's approach here, what's his game plan, he's always i don't know about the investigation of his investigation. but he keeps doing at? >> it's more of a politician that he is a lawyer. he did go to law school but he never touched the bar. he hasn't practiced law or used what he might have learned in law school. but it's obviously a separation of powers issue with the legislative not having the right to interfere with the judiciary. and especially when you have a situation where you have a congress individual who is so close to trump, trump gaining the presidential medal of freedom to mean that the presidential medal of freedom should go to people like julien pond, harry belafonte, people who do something courageous and things like that. regardless, he does politically what trump wants them to do, the committee is operating to try to help elect donald trump as president in spite of the fact that he's been defeated in light of the election and post-dissipated insurrectio

congressman jim jordan is the chairman of the house judiciary committee and a longtime member of the sight committee he might've actually been chairman if memory serves me correctly. and he joins us now. chairman, by the make great seeing you and polly in iowa. this is a win for the house. >> it is a win biden refused to come and now he is. you get to talk to him but what you want to ask him? >> you are right it is a win for the house. we have good negotiations with this council is coming and which is why he wanted to work you want to get the testimony whether you exercise a privilege and offer some the questions we will find out. the first question we will ask him is who did you call when the chairman of a burisma this company hunter biden sat on the board with the knee he asked we are under pressure from that prosecuted in ukraine can you help us question rick hunter writing gets on the phone and according to his partner's business partner devon archer when we oppose him he said first he called his dad and he said later in the ngv sidwell calm he called d.c. i want to know who he ca

>> now this hearing is still ongoing, as well as another hearing in the house judiciary committee whichlso marking a resolution that would refer hunter biden to the doj for contempt of congress but ultimately, if the full house does pass this resolution which we are expecting to happen as early as next week, it's going to be up to the doj to determine whether to prosecute the president son. they are already looking into hunter biden over other charges but no doubt, just a remarkable moment here on capitol hill, as republicans pursue their impeachment inquiry into joe biden. >> just when you think you've seen it all. the house also began its first hearing on whether to impeach homeland security secretary mayorkas over his handling of the border crisis, what is happening there? >> so this comes as the impeachment inquiry has really struggled, republicans have failed to come up with a definitive link between president joe biden and his sons foreign business deals and as the search of migrants across the border has become such a big issue, they are prioritizing impeaching mayorkas . i talke

and forth between district attorney willis and republican jim jordan, the chairman of the house judiciary committee. jordan has been trying to undermine the credibility of this investigation and this case, parroting things from the former president, calling this a political persecution, not a prosecution. he estimated documents in the past before. again, he is demanding that now the news of his alleged improper relationship surface, but again he is being met with resistance from district attorney willis who has rebuffed his demands, and this is what she is saying and part of her response. your request indicates significant well-recognized confidentiality interest related to an ongoing criminal matter. your request violates principles of separation of powers and federalism as well as respect for the legal protections provided to an attorney work product in ongoing litigation. ever since these alleged romance rumors really surfaced, willis has been facing criticism from her critics, her foes, now allies are asking her to step down. she has yet to directly respond to these allegations, but she has dev

know, you have set it a couple times, you are a student of history can my dad was on the house judiciary committee during the impeachment of nixon passionately making decision for his impeachment saying that no man is above the law, not even the president of the united states. for our system of justice to survive, we must pledge the highest allegiance to the law itself and not the common frailties of man. those are 50 years ago, those words are still pertinent. he would say he could commit, any president could commit any crime they wanted and not have to be held accountable for it. it does not make sense, no other president, even richard nixon never claimed he did not have to follow any laws. it does not make sense. your document larry hogan sr., former congressman and chairman of the judiciary committee was a hero indeed. his son, governor larry hogan, thank you for being with us today. >>> is at the end of an era for a mainstay of american sports? one of the nation's most recognizable magazines sees most of its staff get fired. >>> new charges against actor alec baldwin for the fatal accidental

virgin islands, a member of the house judiciary committee. e served on the house select committee on the weaponization of the federal government. she also served as a house manager, helped prosecute the case against donald trump in his second impeachment trial. representative plaskett, it's good to see you again. you and i have talked many, many times, back and forth these days, but one of them, one of the rules you play it as an impeachment manager was to walk us through what we just told our viewers. walk us through exactly what happened that day, from every angle. you've seen every shot of this. you've seen every video camera. and eugene goodman tells a lot of the story here. there was a mob that was destined to attack the capital, and invoke violence on people. this man fought it in the moment. and i just mean symbolically, it is important for us to remember on this third anniversary, there are lots of people in america in different roles who did what this man did. but he put his life on the line. >> yes. thank you so much, and happy new y

to democratic congressman eric swalwell and jerry nadler, who served as chairman of the house judiciary committee during part of trump's administration. the website first obtained the tape and cnn has independently verified its authenticity. stone has denied making the comments. cnn's zachary cohen joins us, doing reporting on this. what are you hearing? >> reporter: sources are telling me that law enforcement is looking at these comments that were allegedly made by roger stone in the weeks before the 2020 election, but they're only surfacing after this recording was published you just played. these are serious allegations. the content of this reporting amounts to a very serious threat against two very high-profile democrats. roger stone is saying that's not him, his voice is not on that recording and he says it is an ai manipulated piece of audio. we've heard similar things from stone before. he's accused documentary filmmakers of fabricating footage in the past, footage that has come under scrutiny from house investigators and federal authorities in that sense. it's important to remember how fa

this is probably going to pass out of the house oversight committee and out of the house judiciary committee, then it will go to the full floor. then it autopsy up -- then it's up to the dodge to determine whether to prosecute. it was a circus, another day on capitol hill, guys. >> we're use today to drama on capitol hill. that was unscripted drama right there and the bad reality show genre. >> i don't remember that happening. we're going to -- we're going to hold -- not even a contempt hearing. but we're going to hold a hearing specifically about one person who they say hasn't shown up, and then they show up -- i don't remember this -- anything like this happening. clearly they were surprised. >> it was a schoolyard brawl basically. and the words being used were so uncouth, i'm not going to report some of them. but we heard from congress people using all kinds of words that you would normally not hear in the halls of congress. never mind in a committee and on television. it just shows you how things have changed and the way people fight now. >> thanks to melanie zanona on capitol hill. we'l

hunter biden's lead attorney has told the house oversight and house judiciary committees that his cliently with any new subpoena issued under what he calls the duly authorized impeachment inquiry. house republicans are moving forward to hold the younger biden in contempt of congress for refusing to testify in front of lawmakers about his business dealings. attorney abbe lowell wrote to the committees today saying the initial subpoenas were legally invalid because they were issued before the full house voted to foraminallize the impeachment inquiry against president biden house speaker mike johnson standing by a $1.6 trillion spending deal with democratic senate majority leader chuck schumer. some house republicans are pressuring him to abandon it in favor of lower spending and new border restrictions. speaker johnson says lawmakers will move forward to implement the deal with what he calls a robust appropriations process. correct me if i am wrong is seeking to avert a partial government shutdown after funding for some federal agencies expires next friday. well, if the truth is out there

congressman jim jordan is the chairman of the house judiciary committee and a longtime member of the sight committee he might've actually been chairman if memory serves me correctly. and he joins us now. chairman, by the make great seeing you and polly in iowa. this is a win for the house. >> it is a win biden refused to come and now he is. you get to talk to him but what you want to ask him? >> you are right it is a win for the house. we have good negotiations with this council is coming and which is why he wanted to work you want to get the testimony whether you exercise a privilege and offer some the questions we will find out. the first question we will ask him is who did you call when the chairman of a burisma this company hunter biden sat on the board with the knee he asked we are under pressure from that prosecuted in ukraine can you help us question rick hunter writing gets on the phone and according to his partner's business partner devon archer when we oppose him he said first he called his dad and he said later in the ngv sidwell calm he called d.c. i want to know who he ca

the house judiciary committee and the oversight committee, both panels led by republicans who are investigating and leading an impeachment inquiry into hunter biden's father, the president, joe biden. they are set to meet this morning. you see them getting ready in their chairs now to mark up these reports to hold hunter biden in contempt of can congress. it is expected that they will successfully vote that report out of committee when it comes due later today, but that full vote has to go before the house before, of course, this matter can be referred to the justice system for any legal repercussions against hunter biden for not showing up for that closed-door deposition last month, and instead appearing, surpriing everyone, holding a press conference outside of the capitol. watch some of what he had to say last time. >> they ridiculed my struggle with addiction. they belittled my recovery, and they have tried to dehumanize me all to embarrass and damage my father, who has devoted his entire public life to service. there is no fairness or decency in what these republicans are doing. >> reporte

the house judiciary committee pointed out many vetting failures with your daughter's killer. this report shows that he was arrested for association with ms-13 before he came to the united date, something they verified easily after the murder, unfortunately. and like you said, the report was released after he was arrested. do you think secretary mayorkas has done an adequate job vetting illegal aliens coming across the border? >> no. if he was vetted, he would've never been allowed in. he would've never been allowed to come here and commit that horrific crime with my daughter. >> thank you for your answers, and i'm very sorry for your loss. >> i'm not yelling at you. >> it's okay. i'm from new york. i'm not yelling. this is just how i talk. >> i was telling you i wasn't yelling at you. >> miss dunn, quickly, the united states is in effect, in crisis, and is being inflamed by the open southwest border. it's resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths in just the past few years. fentanyl is highly addictive, incredibly potent, and that's why it's a favored drug for traffickers.

here is chairman of the house judiciary committee jim jordan, james comer and the chairman of the houseways and means committee jason smith. good to see you all. jim jordan, let me start with you and your letter to christopher wray and we will talk about the contempt. >>> there is an underlying 1023 form that was earlier back in 2017. that became the basis for scott brady u.s. attorney asking to talk to the confidential human source that produced the 1023 formed or we asked christopher wray to give us that foreign. when you step back and looked the big take away wasn't the chaos in the committee yesterday or the fact that kevin morris who is sitting there purchased $875,000 of hunter biden's art and it wasn't what happened in la with hunter biden pleading not guilty to tax charges. the big take away is what david weiss didn't charge hunter biden with. he didn't charge him with those tax years 2014 and 2015 when he got the income from burisma. he let the statute of limitations expire because its one thing to have a gun charge and an delaware park that doesn't get you to the white house.

this is what the house judiciary committee is looking into, whether they have weaponize weaponize theent department of justice, whether they have politicized the department of justice. i believe they have. i think your case and steve bannon's case is the embodiment of it. hunter biden defied the same subpoena. why did he get a second chance? >> sean, if anybody thinks they are not trying to put donald trump in prison for saving look at what they did to me yesterday. they are not messing around. four months in prison. they even want to put me in prison before i can have my appeal in this case. they want trump in prison and out of the oval office and they want folks like me not to be able to help him out. here's the thing. here's what i ask your viewers to understand understand. it's not rare. i am the first senior white house advisor ever to be charged in this alleged crime. the irony here come, sean, the irony, the department of justice itself has maintain a policy for more than 50 years that says that senior advisers like me absolutely cannot be compelled to testify before congress.
