we also don't have adam schiff, who wrote the report. he said yesterday in a press conference, "i'm not going to. i'll send staff to do that." he's not going to. but, you know, to me, if he was wanting to, he'd come begging to us. but, you know, here's the problem. it sums it up very simply like this. just 19 minutes after noon on inauguration day, 2017, "the washington post" ran the headline, "the campaign to impeach the president has begun." mark zaid, who would later become the attorney for the infamous whistleblower, tweeted in january 2017, "the coup has started." the impeachment will follow ultimately. and in may of this year, al green says, "if we don't impeach the president, he'll get reelected." you want to know what's happening? here we go. why did everything that i say up to this point about no fact witnesses, nothing for the judiciary committee, we spent 2 and a half weeks before this hearing was even held under clinton -- two and a half weeks. we didn't even find your names out until less than 48 hours ago. i don't know what

senator adam schiff, thank you so much for being here in person.really appreciate it. >> thank you. >> all right. look forward to hopefully talking to you again soon. >>> when we come back, as the nation mourns the death of former president jimmy carter, we look back at his message to a divided country. our "meet the press" minute is next. stay with us. kingdom: protecting the wild. and celebrate conservation success stories. stream all episodes on peacock or nbc.com >>> welcome back. former president jimmy carter, the longest living president in u.s. history, is lying in repose in the carter center in atlanta after he passed away last sunday nearly two years after being admitted into hospice care. jimmy carter joined this broadcast 11 times. in 1976, he talked about wanting to bridge the country's divides, just days before becoming the democratic nominee in his first run for president. >> i think the american people resent being put in box, and i've always avoided them myself. obviously, since the beginning of this calendar year, as the iowa caucu

back with me as senator adam schiff of california.of the senate judiciary committee and a former member of the house jen reese asked select committee. jack smith, for now that casey's on hold. what do you make of aileen cannon's role in this? isn't she no longer relevant to the case? she threw it out. >> she shouldn't be relevant to the case at all but of course it's fruit of the trump lawyers to go to her as she has been unfailingly willing to carry donald trump's legal water in her own courtroom, making judgments that are unsupported by any resident and nevertheless that object may be to see if she can delay any resolution of this until trump is in office, his criminal lawyers are running the justice department, and they can make the report and all the rest of this go away. so her role has been clear from the start. whether this is auditioning for the court of appeals or what it is on her part, but nevertheless completely out of the mainstream judgments. and here is another one. but most particularly as it pertains to jen reese aske

a discussion with adam schiff. you know you want a burger. so make it my smashed jack, rated the best burger in fast food. it's even got more beef than a big mac. chin up, ronald. maybe you'll get a participation trophy. my smashed jack, now on sourdough. welcome to jack in the box! if you think you can find another $5 breakfast meal served all day with something savory like my bacon breakfast jack and something sweet like my fluffy french toast sticks... you thought wrong. but that's okay. i'll still let you have mine. at jack, every bite's a big deal. welcome to jack in the box! usa, usa january 6th, 2021. a mob of trump supporters attacked the u.s. capitol nearly four years after the riot. hundreds of people involved have been convicted for their involvement in what the fbi has called an act of domestic terrorism. in a recent interview, the president elect said he will most likely begin pardoning jan six defendants federal charges against mr. trump related to the riot and his effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election have officiall

she tried to turn the tables on adam schiff and she did that well, you are so worried about liz cheneyuld be worried about the crime in your state of california, which i wonder is why he changed his tone in the next round of questioning. it was much softer and he started talking about constituents, realizing he will need his attorney general's help on that. >> sandra: it did seem to change, jonathan turley, over to you. >> it was interesting midway through the hearing they started referring to her basically as the presumptive attorney general. they seem to accept that she has the votes. she did make a mistake today. the most interesting moments like adam schiff where this is the happiest of lawfare warriors demanding to know if she would turn on her enemies. it is like having captain jack sparrow interjecting and which to comply with the law of the seas? you have a senator here, former congresswoman, who was the face of that lawfare effort and it believes what happened in new york was a really great thing. she handled it quite well. the other interesting take away is that they quickly

i am proud you know what to do for adam schiff when you see that dave roll autobiography and that you watch "the big lebowski" to honor him in his courageous leadership. i am proud you are wild by prince like abigail and mike, former cia agents and helicopter pilots that have such bright futures. jim hines house a great dinner party and when i met him, i told you, i would at least have one friend in congress here that you know that lori can get me to laugh on even the roughest of days and pete aguilar and i get in trouble when we sit next to each other at events in this institution is stronger because it is one of its greatest leaders with a bright disposition, willingness to have tough conversations on both sides of the aisle, and a passion for service. i am sort of tickled that when i read this note to you on the house floor, it will formally enter into the congressional record the names back row hecklers, rusty butter knives and the industry couples into the congressional record. whatever we call them, they are people i have broken bread with, talked about the world's problems with

the very latest from fema administrator deanne criswell, and california senator adam schiff on the challenges ahead. >>> plus, republican house majority whip tom emmer on how the new congress will respond. >>> tricky territory. >> we need it for national security. that's for the free world. >> jonathan: one week to his inauguration, president-elect trump says he wants to take over greenland, the panama canal, and maybe even canada. is he serious? we'll speak with his incoming white house national security adviser, mike waltz. >>> plus, all five living presidents gather in washington as america bids farewell to jimmy carter. so what did trump and obama discuss? we'll ask the round table. >>>. welcome to "this week." the scope of the wildfires that are still raging in los angeles and the destruction they have brought to america's second largest city is almost impossible to comprehend. the images evoking one-word descripters used to describe the worst disasters. catastrophic, hellscape, apocalyptic. there are so many frightening images, but one in particular caught our attention this morning. yo

thank you for your time this morning and good luck. >> thank you. >> jonathan: senator adam schiff of california represented the los angeles area for years in the house. he shared these images on x as he witnessed the devastation on the ground firsthand. senator schiff now joins us from california. senator, thank you for being here. as i said, you represented l.a. for years in the house. you lived there for kwh what was going through your mind au as you toured the devastation over the last couple of days? >> frankly it reminded me of visiting war zones, seeing that kind of devastation, just house after house, block after block. we've had no shortage of fires in southern california over the years that i have been in congress. it has often been very idiosyncr idiosyncratic. you'll soo one house lost here, and then the others fine around it. there is some of that here, but there are whole neighborhoods that are gone. in talking to residents, so many who lost everything, they've told me how their house is gone, their neighbors' are gone, their church is gone, their store is gone. it's all

[cheering] only yesterday i read a shocking report that proved to congress adam schiff eric swalwell during the russian inclusion hopes in violation of the law and absent a full copy of this to inform the. this is not just a triumph of the american people, it was the beginning of great political realignment. it no longer mattered. a political establishment until the 16 dominated both parties and outsiders and robert f kennedy. a realignment for them is worth were national interests are not clear some sense of free speech not only on the internet about all mediums to do anything they want. common sense democrats and independents, robert f kennedy and kelsey gabbert who is now a republican and those who favor common sense to want peace to support free speech and why they are poisoning our children. that's the source of the great realignment. the role of the republican party in great emancipation. most african-americans reporting democrats that but cuts into realignment kept them in the white house 9232 -- 1952. this is also 1958 and white southern democrats and color ethnic catholics i

you know, daniel hodges is going to be in the gallery at adam schiff's invitation. reflect on these attempts to rewrite the violence that happened that day. >> yeah, andrea. if it's any consolation, i'm 5'11" and even i look up to harry dunn. he's so tall. but this idea of betrayal is something that keeps coming up in conversations with some of the police officers and law enforcement officials who risked their lives on january 6th, 2021, during that attack, to protect the democratic process that makes our country really what it is. this idea of pardoning 1,600 january 6th defendants is also something that some of those involved with defending the capitol on that day are feeling really betrayed by. donald trump spent the last four years essentially rewriting the history of january 6th, and by all accounts, he has really sort of been pretty convincing with all of his supporters, hosting john eastman and a handful of the chief architects, people who created the plan to try to stop the electoral certification at mar-a-lago over the weekend and praising them for their ef

leading off our conversation is adam schiff, he was the lead impeachment manager for the first impeachment trial of donald trump. thank you very much for joining us on this important night. i'd like to begin with the breaking news i discussed with rachel at the beginning of this hour. that is that donald trump's lawyers are attempting to block what is apparently a two volume report by jack smith on the special prosecutor's investigations of donald trump. as you know, the special counsel report of this kind is for them to be publicly released. with your own experience as a former u.s. attorney in federal prosecutor, what is your reaction to the trumpet lawyers trying to block this report? >> i suppose it is not surprising that they should try. they have no shortage of nerve. but for the attorney general to grant it would be indefensible. for the reasons that you mentioned, historically these reports are made public and these reports are funded with taxpayer dollars and the public has the right to know. it is astonishing to me as we sit here, the crime was committed four years ago. and in fo

it's not in the statute it's something that was made up by adam schiff at we also have adam schiff are wrote the report. he said yesterday i'm not going. i will send others. he's not going to budge me if hf you want to he could come begging to us. here's the problem. it sums it up simply like this. just 19 minutes afternoon on inauguration day 2070 the "washington post" ran a headline the campaign to impeach the president has begun. the coup have started ppp's fall ultimately. in may of this year al green says every don't impeach the president he will get reelected. you want to know what's happening? rico. why did everything i say up to the point about no fact witnesses nothing for the judiciary committee we spent two and half weeks before bey was even held under clinton, two and half weeks we did even find your names out until less than 40 hours ago. i don't know what were playing hide the ball on. it's easy what you're going to say. we can't even get that straight. what are we doing for the next two weeks? no idea. the chairman just said something big was but nothing else. if are not

it's one i put actually directly to senator adam schiff.what's his role going to look like in this new congress? he spent so much time conducting oversight when he was in congress of the first trum administration. will we expect to see the same in the second trump administration? he said, look, that's really going to depend on what we see from president elect trump. what are his actions? does he cross any red lines? i asked him if he's going to look backwards. will he be focused on election interference? for example, he said, look, he wants to find areas of bipartisan agreement. he does want to try to legislate to get stuff done in his new role as a senator. at the same time, he was very clear on the legislation that he disagrees with. he's going to try to block republicans. for example, he and both leader schumer were quite clear they are going to oppose extending the trump era tax cuts. they believe those are tax cuts for wealthy americans. so expect that to be a big battle capitol hill. i think that's going to be a big question. i think

senator adam schiff will not rule out investigating trump while he's in office.l be here on what may be the return of the democrats' lawfare. and and biden administration promising a jam-packed final go weeks. we're going get -- two two weeks. is what it could mean for blocking trump's agenda. will cain on that. the 10:00 hour is next. ♪ oh, yes, it's ladies' night, and the feeling's right -- ♪ oh, yes, it's lady' night ♪ work..

leading off in our discussion tonight is democratic senator adam schiff of california. he served on the january 6th committee and was the lead impeachment manager for the first impeachment trial of donald trump. senator shift, thank you very much for joining us on this important night. i'd like to begin with the breaking news of the night that i discussed with rachel at the beginning of this hour, and that is donald trump's lawyers attempting to block what is apparently a two-volume report by jack smith on the special prosecutor's investigations of donald trump. as you know, the precedent for a special counsel's report of this kind is for them to be publicly released. but with urine and spirits is a former u.s. attorney, federal prosecutor, what is your reaction to the trump lawyers trying to block this report? >> i suppose it's not surprising that they should try. they have no shortage of chutzpah, of nerve, but for the attorney general to grant it i think would be indefensible, for the reasons that you mentioned. historically these reports are made public. these repor

only yesterday i read a shocking house report that proved that congressman adam schiff and congressman leaked classified documents and i've sented a full copy of the congressional report to pam bondi. if it's shit, flush it. this election was not just a personal triumph for donald trump and the america first agenda. it was the binning of a mass great political realignment. a realignment where republican and democrat in all honesty no longer matter. that is not the divide in washington. those that favor endless war where inherent national interests are not clear.ot who would sensor our free speech not only on the internet but in all immediateups and think it is fine for big pharma and big food to do anything they want as long as profits are fed. while, at the same time common sense democrats those that want common sense and peace and free speech and think it's important to find out why big pharma and big food are poisoning our children. that is the great fight and that is the source of the great realignment. by 1936, most half african americans voting for realignment and kept them in th
