so amanda, you first.question about whether the votes are there to replace cheney. so is this a done deal for cheney? and what does this all say about the direction of the gop? >> let me make the strange case for optimism in this scenario, never before have we had a persona leadership position willing to force the conversation about the cost of trump's lies, and how it led to now the insurrection, and so i think cheney is poised to lose this post, but what makes this different is that we have someone who is willing to stand and fight. before we had people who disagreed with trump, who just walked away. you know, paul ryan left his speakership, he had senators like bob corker and jeff flake, just decided they're not going to run again and cheney is digging her heels in. people who are disillusioned, after seeing what happened on january 6th. need someone to rally around. and i think liz cheney can be that person. >> you think that she has support, and perhaps just in terms of elected republicans, and that t

amanda hari kron 4 news. amanda, thank you tonight, san jose. police are searching for answers in an overnight triple shooting that ended with a man dead. >> the shooting happened just after 1030 on north bell avenue when they got to the scene. officers say they found those 3 men shot. one of them died from their injuries. the death. now the city's 16th homicide of 2021 tonight we are staying in contact with police to get more details. we'll pass along new information as soon as it becomes available tonight. a 7th woman has now come forward accusing windsor mayor dominic foppoli of misconduct. in an interview with the san francisco chronicle, former. former sonoma mayor rachel hunley says that climbed on top of her and exposed himself back in sakhir back in 2015 in sacramento during a conference for government officials. hunley said that she went to the police room after a night of drinking but told him she did not want anything to happen on twitter today, hunley said that for poli is both a problem and the symptom of a problem. she went on to s

amanda, you first. so, cheney's fate is sealed in the party leadership.ould say. our jamie gangel spoke a source that said the gop is not interested in democracy any longer. so if that is the case, amanda, what happens to the rest of the people who are still interested in democracy? >> the january-6th commission. liz cheney is going to be ousted from republican leadership because she wouldn't go along with the big lie. that's what leadership wants to do. and so, the price for that is that liz cheney is going to be cut loose and she should be free to work with the democrats to finally get the january-6th commission going. this can be done. there are enough cheney-aligned republicans who can help the democrats pass this in both houses. heck, stuff it into a reconciliation bill so you only need 50 votes. get that to biden ees desk. he will sign it. and you make it bipartisan with competent, responsible republicans, who are interested in the democracy project. and in a year from now, we can have a record with bipartisan consensus about the events that led to

also watching was a proud cnn hero who first met amanda as a young girl of 14.en taylor's organization, right girl, offers thousands of teens support, guidance and the tools to have their voices be heard. >> many of our girls come from environments where they're really struggling with unstable family situations, violence in their communities. our goal is to really try and reach the most teens we can that are in the greatest need. >> nice. >> since receiving the hero award, we've expanded to include programs for boys and coed groups to clarify our definition of girls by including non-binary girls, trans youth, developed more programming for youth who are incarcerated or systems impacted, on probation. we are always encouraging our girls to share their own story. what is going on in their world because they are the only one that can write that poem, tell that story, write that song. >> and a time where a skinny black girl descended from slaves and raised by a single mother. >> amanda gorman joined right girl when she was 14. when we saw her perform at the inaugura

>> amanda, stand by. we'll check back with you in a couple of minutes on another major development on the hill. with us right now is tedra cobbs, that aims at increasing democrats' victories. she ran against elise stefanick in 2020 for new york's 21st congressional district. thank you so much for being here. >> oh, thank you for having me. it's an honor. >> well, so, in the lead up to stefanick being elected to the republican leadership, you actually tweeted that without much pomp and circumstance, elise stefanick completed her betrayal of the constitution, her office, and us. ultimately, this isn't a fight for leadership, it's a race to the front of the pack. a pack of followers chasing a failed president, forsaking our democracy. why do you say that? especially when you know the 21st district voted twice for president trump, former president trump. >> well, this is about elise stefanick supporting a president who has put forward the big lie and she has always been about herself. and this is important. a

amanda: yes.es ] we moved. lemonis: i don't remember ever talking about moving. ...and her reckless spending... credit-card fees -- $257,000. ...is putting this once-buoyant business at risk. amanda: if we don't stop this cycle of borrowing and not having enough money to repay things, there's no way we can survive it. lemonis: if i can't teach amanda how to put a cork in her mounting debt...

amanda, if this is comes down to standing with liz cheney or perpetuating the bagig lie. doesn't seem like the odds are very good for cheney. does the foundation of the republican party become a lie? >> it -- yes. i mean, right now, it already is a lie. she is fighting to change that dynamic. we had an incredible situation, after the election. you had, what, 147 members of congress voting to object to biden's election, after the insurrection. 18 attorneys generals trying to cancel votes. dozens of conservative groups attempting to cancel votes through state legislatures. that is the dynamic liz cheney is trying to change. the odds are, clearly, stacked against her. but what makes this so different are the stakes. she is a member of leadership, making this argument. i don't think we've had that, before, anderson. we've had other people, just kind of look at this landscape. throw up their hands and say, i can't do it a thing about it. paul ryan resigned. other senators resigned. you have people like jeb bush wouldn't even show up at conventions. but she is digging her heels

great to see both on this sunday night. >> amanda, i am looking forward to get your thoughts on this. watching this liz cheney's situation is playing out is why republicans are scared to speak out. that and the romney situation. still, how much is republican silence over the years to blame for enabling trump and his conspiracy rather and letting it all fester among their base? >> the more you go along with it, the more you stay silent and the more it builds and the harder it becomes to beat back. we are in this mess with the big election lies and the insurrection. republicans decided to let donald trump to make his arguments after it was clear that he lost in november. they gave him a month to spin this thing up and fund raise and organize activists and that led to the insurrection in the capitol. there are republicans who think that if they look away from this, it will magically go away. the trump's problem will never magically go away. his nomination is for the taking in 2024. the only hope of beating this thing back is people willing to do what liz cheney and mit romney is willing
