it's all from "new york times" reporter alex burns and jonathan martin.ngress woman debbie talking about trump supporters on january 5th. >> i'm actually very concerned about this because we have who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people coming here. we have antifa. we also have quite honestly trump supporters who actually believe that we are going to overturn the election and when that doesn't happen, most likely won't happen, they're going to go nuts. >> we're going to have more new audio in a moment but this is the eve of the january 6th select committee's first public hearing. cnn pamela brown has the latest on what we can expect. >> reporter: after a nearly year-long investigation, the january 6th committee is preparing to share their findings with the american people. and they're zeroing in on one man, former president trump. >> i think that donald trump and the white house were at the center of these events, that's the only way really of making sense of them all. >> reporter: from the beginning, the investigation focussed on the unpreceden

back with me now, alex burns and charlie dent. lex, hutchinson testifying that then secretary of state told meadows after the riot that cabinet secretaries were discussing invoking the 25th. he's a staunch trump loyalist. they knew in the moment the president behavior was such that he could not be trusted to carry out his duties even the small amount of time left in his term. >> that's right. it's something that has been reported in the past. including in our book. that a republican congressional leaders were talking about the 25th amendment. mitch mcconnell and kevin mccarthy studied the option and inquired for intelligence on the night of january 6. about whether it was on the table in the cabinet. we reported that republican senators were talking to white house officials including white house counsel about the possibility that 25th amendment. this is the most important public on the record confirmation so far. that a figure as prominent in the administration as the sitting secretary of state was allegedly contemplating that as a

i want to turn, now, straight away the political analyst alex burns and john martin, both correspondents for "the new york times." they're the co-authors of the book "this will not pass." thank you for coming on. good evening to you. we have new photos obtained by abc news, showing pence hiding on january 6th. he's across from his daughter. his wife closing the curtains while the attack was under way. this comes as the committee was making the case that trump's actions led to the attack. what are we going to hear? >> i think we'll get a lot of detail on just how much pressure mike pence was under to do the wrong thing on january 6th. and i will probably look at what we had up to this point, exactly what the mechanics were that landed with him doing the right thing. we know everybody from the president on down, who was determined to continue to challenge the election was placing everything around mike pence. it's our reporting on the book and at the time for the paper. we never thought mike pence was tempted to go ahead and try to sabotage american democracy and create a constitutional cr

we know that thanks to audio revealed by the new york times alex burns and jonathan. >> we cannot sweep this under the rug, we need to know why it happened, who did it, and people being held accountable. i'm committed to make sure that happens. first option, as some people talked about, is a resolution against the president. both republicans and democrats have been drafting these. one could be introduced or co-sponsor. another item that we need to discuss is a bipartisan commission to investigate the circumstances surrounding the attack. we need to know and have the facts exactly what happened and when. this needs to be done in a targeted way that doesn't distract from keeping the capitol safe over the coming weeks. what we learned is that people can get in, we learned that people come in. we need to have all the facts especially for all of those, we should do it in a bipartisan manner. >> today a federal judge ordered john eastman to turn over documents to the january six committee. it highlights an email that must be turned over written on december 22nd 2020. the judge said, this emai

this is, to tell everyone, alex burns, jonathan martin. their new book "this will not pass." watch this. >> i got a phone call to the president telling him what was going on and asking him to tell these people to stop, to make a video and go out. i was very intense and very loud about it. he did put a tweet out and later he did put a video out. i told him i didn't like the video he put out later, but the second day, i wish that video was first. >> this shows mccarthy believed trump had the pourer to stop the attack and did nothing for 187 minutes. how is this critical time period, how will this play into the committee's case, do you think? >> this is the most important time period in the case, the 187 minutes from 1:10 p.m. when the capitol was breached until 4:17 p.m. when that tape went out. this recording by mccarthy, by the way, kudos to jonathan and alex for finding this. this is part of a historical record. we won't hear from mccarthy. he was subpoenaed and blew it off. this is more telling than anything he says now because this is what he said then. during the three pl

it was just released by reporters alex burns and jonathan martin in connection with their new pook "thisl not pass." house minority leader kevin mccarthy talking to members on january 11th, just days after the attack on the capitol, essentially agreeing with everything the committee he now opposes says it stands for. >> we cannot just sweep this under the rug. we need to know why it happened, who did it, and people need to be held accountable for it. and i'm excited to make sure that happens. >> so, just days after he said that, he went to mar-a-lago, made nice with the former president, and is now leading the opposition to everything pretty much he said he was for back on january 11th. also in these new tapes, audio of a republican congressman from indiana on january 5th telling colleagues he doesn't like the fact that he's about to vote to overturn election results, but is doing it anyway, because his constituents are demanding it. >> the reality is, is this is a political vote for many of us. i'm going to vote my district. my district wants me to object to the states that get bicamera

jonathan martin and alex burns who are are authors of "this will not pass." they join me now.ving you two on so let's get to it. good evening. jonathan, cipollone may agree to this limited interview when so many others in trump's inner circle have stone wall. what is the possibility he may potentially do this even if it's limited? >> it gets in the room if you will of trump's white house in the days leading up to january 6th itself, and that could spell trouble for the former president if more of his advisers, more people who were with him in those crucial days in american history are speaking and they're speaking under oath, which is important to note. so i think this could be potentially valuable. we have not heard cipollone on videotape to date. and i think if he does participate he's going to be able to corroborate or not. >> we know cipollone was involved in these critical moments. what do you think is the most important thing he could tell the committee. >> look, i think as jonathan just alluded to if pat cipollone were to testify and corroborate the elements of cassidy

as reported in a new book by "the new york times" jonathan martin and alex burns.und. >> we cannot just sweep this under the rug. we need to know why it happened, who did it and people need to be held accountable for it. i'm committed to make sure that happens. >> mccarthy now standing united with donald trump in his request for speakership. that was a photo taken after those words. joining me two people who were there. a former cia officer and an arizona congressman. congressman, what do you think happened to kevin mccarthy between january 6 and now? >> he lost his courage. he cared more about politics and being able to hold potential power of becoming speaker and gaining seats. he realizes that the republican party cannot really exist without donald trump and donald trump's base. he struck a deal with literally the devil in order to continue for him to have any chance of being speaker and potentially bring donald trump back. he chose his personal political career versus saving democracy. the lowest thing you could do as a politician. >> congresswoman, do you thin

and as alex burns and i report in our book, "this will not pass" the biden people were eye rolling leftn 2021. when summers was warning about inflation, and now obviously biden is talking to larry summers and trying to keep him inside the tent. i couldn't help to notice larry summers was on a show yesterday in the previous sunday, perhaps joe biden saw clips of the shows and wants to keep summers on message. >> that's part of the challenge. look, a president cannot wave a magic wand and even -- yes, he could suspend the gas tax for weeks or months but then the federal government loses money. there's a price for that. you can do modest things but you can't make it all go away. he's trying to show the american people i'm trying to do everything i can. >> he wants to show he's trying. this is an economic problem that has really serious political ramifications. now, a lot of biden supporters don't like to hear this. but this is a problem for the president. no, he did not cause it. no, it's not all his fault. but at the end of the day, presidents get all sorts of problems on their desk that

and part of new audio just released from "new york times" reporters alex burns and jonathan martin. here is congresswoman lasco on january 5th, 2021. >> i also asked leadership to come one a safety plan for members. i'm actually very concerned about this, because we have who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people coming here. we have antifa. we also have, quite honestly trump supporters, who actually believe that we are going to overturn the election. and when that doesn't happen, most likely will not happen, they are going to go nuts. >> well, she was right about that. and she said this was the day before, right? you all remember the scene when those trump supporters ransacked the capitol, said "hang mike pence" attacked officers with whatever they had on them. a fire extinguisher, flagpoles. four people died. now five case later, mccarthy spoke to his members. and again, it's on tape, just released from burns and martin for their book "this will not pass." he said he got on the phone and told trump to call off the mob. >> when they started breaking into my office, i made a

all of this coming out in newly released audio from alex burns and jonathan martin for his book "thisw is cnn political analyst and "new york times" senior political correspondent maggie haberman. to hear kevin mccarthy say what he wants is full kentuckying of what happened, though he opposes this committee that's holding these hearings tonight. >> opposes this committee and really just a huge kudos to my colleagues for getting these tapes. we know though that mccarthy was saying things to his caucus that he didn't live up to at all, that within two weeks of donald trump leaving office he went down to mar-a-lago to make peace with him. why? because kevin mccarthy wants to be speaker and this was seen adds the fastest way. donald trump was not getting off the scene. it was clear that the reaction in congress to what happened on january 6 was just not commensurate with the republican base and so kevin mccarthy moved on quickly and he hindered the work of this committee. he has shown very little interest in finding out exactly what happened and who is accountable and who should be held a
