democrat adam schiff joins me now.pen tonight, i hear a lot of democratic politicians talking about this in urgent tones. why? >> i share that sense of urgency, because if we don't address this effort to disenfranchise people by enactment of various laws at state level, now over 150 new proposals by republican legislatures to cut people off, particularly people of color. and combine that with jerry mandered maps, looking at another ten years of republican rule until demographics catch up with the gerrymander. republicans seize control and takes years for democratic changes to overcome that or need a wave election to overcome it. this is a moment, we need to get this past, reenfranchise people and do away with politicians choosing their voters instead of the other way around. >> should say that gerrymandering is an old practice, we haven't always had ruthless partisan polarization we have now, changes it. nor the sophistication with computers to finely grain the whole thing, it's on another level now. i made a causal ar

joining us now is adam schiff. he is the chairman of the intelligence committee in the house. sir, thank you so much for making time tonight, i really appreciate you being here. >> it's a pleasure. >> so i imagine that you probably had access to the classified version of this report. i'm sure that you knew that the unclassified version was coming. i didn't, i'm stunned by the level of detail and by the schemes that are described here. let me just start by asking you if i've described any of it wrong or if i'm looking at any of this the wrong way around, as far as you can tell. >> not, not at all. actually we did know it was coming because we wrote the requirement in our intelligence bill that they publish this report, just as we required that the report of the murder of jamal khashoggi be made public, that the public has a right to know and when that information can be disclosed without revealing sources, it should be published. at you pointed out, ratcliff was misleading the public by hyping the threat from china. so was bill barr and others in the administration. the require

there had been lots of discussion that congressman adam schiff might replace xavier becerra, might be appointed to be california attorney general, once becerra got confirmed for his cabinet position in washington. well, today we learned that congressman adam schiff will not be going home to california to take that job. he will stay in d.c. as a congressman, and an important one as chair of the intelligence committee. instead of him, california's governor picked for the new attorney general job in california a man named rob bonta. he is a state representative in california. he will now become the first ever filipino-american to have that very powerful gig, attorney general of the most populous state in the country. at the justice department in washington, though, there's trouble. we've been reporting for weeks now, for months now, on how the trump presidency and the tenure of attorney general bill barr really ripped the u.s. justice department apart at the seams in some important ways. president biden's new attorney general, merrick garland, he has been confirmed. he is in position now

joe biden promised to be different and this week the senior democrat adam schiff has said: but what'slly happened this week is that first we have a report confirming the us intelligence believed the crown prince approved the murder, and second we have confirmation that he won't be targeted. my colleague nick bryant had the story as it developed. while they've announced what they're calling a khashoggi ban, which is targeting foreign nationals who they say have intimidated, or harassed or assaulted dissidents and journalists, they haven't imposed sanctions on mohammed bin salman. the crown prince will go unpunished. and that development has been fiercely criticised. jamal khashoggi wrote for the washington post and its publisher fred ryan has written: we've also heard from jamal khashoggi's fiance who put out a statement saying: . and some usjournalists and biden supporters have arrived at this point. is the only difference between trump bragging about saving mbs�*s ass and biden acting as if he has no choice but to save mbs�*s ass, is the only difference the words surrounding the deci

joining me now is congressman adam schiff. thank you for joining me. what can be done by the committees asking for information from a number of agencies, particularly when there is no agreement on an independent investigation. >> an independent investigation makes the most sense and the speaker is working hard to bring that about. but there is republican resistance to it. we are not going to sit still. we are going to get to the full facts of what took place in the runnups to january 6. why some of the warning signs were missed. what we need to do to protect our country going forward. six of us have written to 16 agencies asking for the pertinent documents so we can begin the process of a thorough investigation to make sure we understand exactly what went into that failed insurrection and how we prevent further violence like that. >> yesterday there was a question by kristen welker. north korea is challenging the new administration, as they have in the past with presidents trump and obama firing two short-term missiles. president biden pointed out thes
