ashli's husband is suing to find out.t with an update on what he has discovered. >> thinks tucker. >> tucker: so on january 6th, that wasas >> tucker: so within hours literally within hours of the riot at the capitol on january 6, the organized course of propaganda begin telling us again, unison choreographed vote we had seen, not about the election stolen from them but overacted what really happened but instead, a group of cueing qanon white supremacists attempting to overthrow the u.s. government, insurrectionist more dangerous than isis. this was worse than 9/11. this was worse than pearl harbor and they said this. but the amazing thing is thatse that claim totally separated from reality saying it actually was internalized, not just buy a lot of the population but by republican leaders. a lot of republican leaders. as a result of that in the months they've not asked those basic questions what actually happened that day. here is first among them who are the only person who was actually shot to death that day was a prote

>> it sounds like a fuckin' gunshot. >> ashli babbitt is shot. >> i know gunshots pretty well.bbitt would die because of trump's big lie. she would not be the last. >> back up! it has 48 hour protection. and a plant-based moisturizer... that cares for your skin. odor protection that works new dove men plant-based care. with armor all, a little bit of this... and a plant-based moisturizer... that cares for your skin. ...protects you... ...from a lot of that. keep your car cleaner longer. armor all extreme shield plus ceramic. like many people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease, i was there. be right back. but my symptoms were keeping me from where i needed to be. so i talked to my doctor and learned humira is the #1 prescribed biologic for people with uc or crohn's disease. and humira helps people achieve remission that can last, so you can experience few or no symptoms. humira can lower your ability to fight infections. serious and sometimes fatal infections, including tuberculosis, and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver,

i think ashli babbitt had been brandishing a firearm.ere they officer would be identified by now and pinning a metal on him. so i don't think we have an explanation for the shooting and why they have not identified. >> tucker: by the way she was brandishing a firearm i would consider that justified. aaron, one last question to you. has a politician reached out to you and say i will find out who killed your wife? >> congressman darrell wiseman. >> tucker: good to. >> he was confused why he was calling me because he was not my congressman. my business is in his district but i never heard from the congressman who supposedly represents me in san diego. >> tucker: maybe someone can get on that. american citizen is dead. if you act like it is a small thing i think we are all in trouble. aaron, thank you for coming on tonight. i appreciate it. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: all the debates right now are about identity. who i am, let's talk about me. we are so deep in the will of narcissism that it is pitch black and we can't see what we are d

i'm not even sure ashli babbitt is dead.e you seen anything of her family? >> up until the point where she passed we lived two blocks apart. >> the answer is, yes . >> i'd say through high school my sister and i were best friends. >> this is ashli babbitt's sister. he and his 35-year-old sister were very close p. it's weird because we saw it on the news and it was like, that's my sister. >> reporter: his sister was a tomboy who joined the military out of high school. >> she could do anything. she was invincible. >> reporter: after the air force, ashli babbitt then bought a pool company in san diego, which she ran with her husband and her brother. >> she was happy. talked about how she lives in a beautiful place. does what she wants. it's the american dream. >> reporter: and he says his sister had voted for barack obama. >> i think that proves in itself she wasn't as crazy as a lot of the media is portraying her to be. >> reporter: then she became a trump fan. >> we can make america great again. >> jim, it was those acceptanc

ashli babbitt an air force veteran from san diego shot and killed by capitol hill police. >> he's got a gun! [ gunshots ]. >> sounds like a gunshot. >> u.s. capitol police officer brian sicknick died from a stroke one day after being attacked by rioters. coy griffin like others cannot accept their so-called peaceful protest led to death so they deny it. let me just ask you, do you believe officer sicknick died because of the riot? >> i'm not so sure officer sick sicknick is even dead. >> coy. >> i hate to be crazy conspiracy minded. i'm not so sure ashli babbitt is dead. >> coy. >> who is to say -- have you seen anything of her family? >> up until the point she passed, we lived two blocks apart. >> the answer is yes. >> through high school me and my sister were best friends. >> this is ashli babbitt's brother roger. he and his 35-year-old sister were very close. >> it was weird because we saw it on the news and it was like, you know, that's my sister. >> he says his sister was a tomboy who joined the military out of high school. >> she could do anything. she was invincible. that's the

are routinely identified after a shooting. >> ashli babbitt, to be clear, was crawling through, and it's on video, a broken window into the speaker's lobby near a number of members of the house of representatives with a crowd of rioters behind her. the mpd internal affairs, as well as the doj, looked at this. they cleared the officer who shot her in april. i wonder what you think hearing that congressman describing her as being executed by a cop. >> this is the congressman whose siblings put out like campaign ads asking people not to vote for him. >> that's right. >> i think those statements are moronic. and i also find it ironic that, you know, while a lot of members of his party were talking about why we didn't shoot everybody in the head that day that he would be taking, you know, the opposite approach and calling a police officer a murderer. >> what do you think this says? we're here talking about just incredible disinformation, denial of reality about what happened when it's so clear there's so much video. you couldn't get more video. you couldn't have more pictures of what hap

guest: to be clear, ashli babbitt was killed in the capital on january 6. don't think they have gotten any money from the government yet. i agree, there was no good-faith reason to impeach donald trump, and it was an abuse of that constitutional power. it was used twice. it was an assault on self governance. host: i want to ask you about reporting from the new york times. the headline says hunting leaks, democrats focused on records from apple. their aides and family members. was this sort of a tit for tat for the metadata sock by the phone records sock by the intelligence committee? guest: i think it was done before that was done. what i find interesting about those news articles is that you don't know what the investigation was about. was it about leaks? who is being investigated? who was the target? when news articles are vague like that it has someone has something they don't want coming out. i want more information about why adam schiff was the subject of a jan -- of a grand jury investigation. the media coverage has been, how dare anyone investigate a

so, he is talking about ashli babbitt. but it's -- the logic doesn't make sense there, because he talks about one type of violence, right, with the protestors around the country. and then, he says that that's bad. but then, the violence that happened at the capitol is, in some way, in his mind, good. logic much? so, in that last statement, he is talking about ashli babbitt, who was shot by a police officer, while she was breaking into the capitol. and putin's saying that those, who rioted on january 6th, were exercising their free-speech rights. he says that, because he knows that's -- that's a right that we have in america, that they just don't have in russia. and everyone in this country has that right. all of the people, who have been arrested and charged in connection with the deadly insurrection. nearly 500 of them. have due process. a right to a fair trial. the russian leader wants to twist what happened, to provide cover for his own authoritarianism. and republicans, in congress, who are denying the riot even took p

when the only person that was killed was ashli babbitt and we don't know the identity of the officerwhy do they have to keep lying, why do they have to conceal video evidence, why are they lying in court about what happened i have listened to judges and prosecutors say that five people were killed including a police officer. they just keep inflating what happened that day all for political purposes to key political prisoners in jail and act as a threat and intimidation and bullying to trump supporters and people on the right that you better watch your step or you will pay a price. mark: the media could care less they don't demand to see was going on in person anymore than they demand to go to the southern border and see what's going on in person, and what's happening there out the window go the phony left-wing civil libertarians who are nowhere to be found in you and i oppose violence and rioting and all of that but apparently the left is not. julie kelly i want to thank you very much for what you're doing, keep at it, i deserve that you'd deserve oppose surprise, but hey you're not

the only person killed at the white house was just as you mentioned ashli babbitt. i wonder if her family got 6 or 12 million dollars because of her being killed. we're in a backward country right now. >> tom fitten, do you have a response? >> to be clear, ashley babbitt was killed at the capitol on january 6th. her family has also sued for records, i don't think they've gotten any money from the government yet. and i agree, there was no good faith reason to impeach donald trump and it was an abuse of that constitutional power and it was used twice. it was an assault on self-government. >> can i ask you about some -- i want to ask you about some reporting from "the new york times" and other outlets, the headline from the times says hunting leaks, the justice department seized records from apple, from metadata, from house intelligence committee members, their aides and family members. was this sort of a tit for tat for the metadata sought by the phone records sought by the intelligence committee. >> no, i think it was done before that was done. what i find interestin

you know, that's the way i looked at her. >> reporter: after the air force, ashli babbitt then bought a pool company in san diego, which she ran with her husband and her brother. >> she was happy. talked about how she lives in a beautiful place. you know, does what she wants, it's the american dream. >> reporter: and he says his sister had voted for barack obama. >> i think that proves, in itself, she wasn't as crazy as a lot of the media is portraying her out to be. >> reporter: then, she became a trump fan. >> drew griffin's special report airs sunday night at 9:00 p.m. and as i everhave been pointing, republicans and right-wing media who are downplaying the violence tried for months to blame followers of antifa. but that got no traction. some claimed antifa folks dressed as trump supporters. yeah, right? now, they are blaming the fbi and government agents. the host over at the fox-propaganda claims to have documents. >> so, fbi operatives were organizing the attack on the capitol on january 6th, according to government documents. and those two were not a llone. in all, revolver new

. >> director wray, do you know who executed ashli babbitt?of the person who -- >> do you agree that ashli babbitt was unarmed? and the capitol police officer that did the shooting appeared to be hiding, lying in wait, and gave no warning before killing her? question, again, why hasn't that officer that executed ashli babbitt been named? when police officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting. >> now, keeping him honest. there is no point in us refuting the congressman's lies, because the facts speak for themselves. take a look at the photo from the other side of the barricade. congressman rueuben gallegos. he was the last line of defense between us and the insurrectionist. congresswoman liz cheney weighed in with this tweeting, on january 6th, as the violent mob advanced on the house chamber, i was standing near at rep gosar and helped him open his gas mask. the capitol police led us to safety. it is disgusting and despicable to see gosar lie about that day, and smear the men and women, who defended us. we wanted the

. >> reporter: ashli babbitt. an air force veteran from san diego. shot and killed by capitol hill police. u.s. capitol police officer, brian sicknick, died from a stroke one day after being attacked by rioters. coy griffin, like others, cannot accept their so-called peaceful protest led to death, so they deny it. >> so let me just ask you, do you believe officer sicknick died because of the riot? >> not even so sure that officer sicknick's even dead. >> coy. >> i'm serious. that's -- that's how -- and i hate to be so crazy-conspiracy minded. i'm not even so sure ashli babbitt is dead. >> coy. >> i mean, who's to say that was -- have you seen anything of her family? >> up until the point where she passed, we lived two blocks apart. >> the answer is yes. >> i mean, i'd say through high school, me and my sister were best friends. >> reporter: this is ashli babbitt's brother. ro roger. he says he and his 35-year-old sister were very close. >> it was weird because we saw it on the news. and it was like, you know, that's my sister. >> anderson, coy griffi

i mean, we had republicans defending ashli babbitt, the woman who tried to jump through the speaker's lounge door and who was shot by a police officer. what would republicans do in the place of democrats, kurt? if they had this -- these set of facts. >> republicans would not hesitate to launch an investigative tsunami against democrats, just like they did when they were in power, when barack obama was president. when they did more than 100 subpoenas, held hearing after hearing, had investigations that lasted years, like benghazi, like fast and furious, like the so-called irs targeting investigation. republicans would not hesitate to wield the power of their majority to do everything they could to try to litter the name of barack obama, hillary clinton, and any high-profile democrat. and i think that there's a lot of appetite right now for democrats to use that majority, and it's not the same thing. let's be very clear. this is not an equal playing field. this is not -- it's such a false equivalency. we know that wrongdoing happened. we know that corruption has happened. we know this w

ashli babbit was the tip of the spear of that mob., when he interacted with the mob they tried to strip him of his gun. if the mob had gotten around the final police officers who were there, they would have done the same thing and you would have seen dead members of congress so god bless the officer who saved us. >> my last question. if the name of that officer were to be released, what do you think might happen to that officer, given the fact that people on the right who support donald trump are threatening to kill people who were just in the business of counting votes, people who work in elections? would it endanger that officer's life to release his name? >> it would absolutely put a target on his back. by the way, that officer has been cleared and that shooting has been deemed as, you know, a lawful, unfortunate, shooting. joy, so now we have a republican party, you know, today by the way over double digits voted against recognizing juneteenth. so it is a pro-slavery, anti-police party that is rolling with the cop killers right no

and we still don't know the name of the officer who took the life of ashli babbitt.ange all that. joining me now california congressman devon nunez ranging member. we asked the dc's attorneys offices about this and the response was they're in the process of making all video material january 6th defendants. congressmen they don't say congress will get access. should you? >> well, look, i have news for th them. the democrats actually do have access. so they can share it with republicans. we don't need the executive branch or the department of justiceive us our own videotape. we are a separate branch of government. what's going on here is a massive coverup by pelosi and the democrats. these 14,000 hours should be shared across all of the committees in congress and the members of congress should decide whether or not these should be released to the public. as it receipt late to the defendants in this case, of which so far there's only, from what i can tell, because we can't get a true reading of it, three dozen people have been charged with the breaking and entering. so

was the fbi involved in the investigation into ashli babbitt's killing? dir. wray: i am not sure i can answer that. i know the decision to close the investigation was made by the doj. the officer involved was not -- rep. steube: you can answer whether or not the fbi was involved in it. dir. wray: i am not sure we were involved in that one. sitting here, i cannot remember for sure. rep. steube: on june 2, 2020, days after the george floyd incident, you detailed the ways the fbi would investigate the floyd investigation. the fbi brought civil rights charges against the officers involved. in a may 7 press release, the doj convicted -- in ashli babbitt's case where civil rights were also being considered by doj, the fbi did not assist at all and you are not even sure if you were involved. why did the fbi investigate george floyd's death but not ashli babbitt's? dir. wray: our decision in the george floyd case was discussed under the prior administration. in the ashli babbitt case, i'm not trying to create more confusion, i cannot just -- i just cannot tell you wha

trouble with the audio, if you can explain the parallel of the insurrectionists in the killing of ashlithe capital ol on generator six. masha: this is classic "what aboutism." nobody is better at it than kgb agents. i think this is a propaganda trope where everything is equal to everything else. so he is talking about a politician who has been using peaceful tactics. the navalny movement is really an extraordinary movement pay -- based on truth telling and protest and nothing else. and he is comparing that to a violent, militant, armed insurrection in the u.s. capitol that we know -- again, this is well-documented, that had violent aims, engaged in mergers frederick, and all of a sudden, everything is equal to everything. and then we spend 10, 15 minutes trying to dissect that propaganda trope and trying to find the kernel of truth in something that is designed to obscure truth. there is a reason why we should not be putting dictators on national television. nermeen: masha, you have been following navalny closely for many years, and you have written also about the conditions of his impr

identify the guy that shot ashli babbitt to death. this is crazy, we should resist it. darren, thanks so much for coming on. sounds like according to this remarkable piece you put up last night at midnight, that the fbi was organizing the riots of january 6th. >> well, yes. certainly suggests that possibility. >> now, you may recall i recently described fox news as the bullshit factory in honor of its steady stream of bogus segments aimed at ginning up your outrage. but tucker has really outdone himself this week. i've decided to word tucker with distinction of bullshit factory employee of the month. congrats, tucker. you did it. nobody bullshits about the insurrection as good as you. at least in the english language. >> people came to the u.s. congress with political -- 400 people have criminal charges placed on them, called domestic terrorists. and they're being accused of a number of other crimes. >> tucker, vladimir, tucker. hold on. this isn't the first crazy conspiracy theory about a false flag operation. first they said it was antifa in fill tray tors, dressed up

that echos what you're hearing from some elements of the republican party that ashli babbitt, the police were lying in wait for her and shot her, as opposed to police defending the capitol against this violent assault. the same is true on issues of ukraine and other elements of republican messaging that sought to absolve, donald trump, who of course was assisted by russia in both of his campaigns. russia interfered in both of his campaigns to try to boost donald trump and then donald trump as president took a series of actions retoricly, mainly, to advance the strategic objectives of russia and vladimir putin, weakening nato, dividing the united states, his own defense secretary, the first president in our lifetime who did not try to unify the american people, he tried to divide us. that is the kremlin's objective and the republican party has stood with him throughout. >> and, asha, to take it a step further, the fact there's a push of a new conspiracy theory that right wing is pushing that the fbi was behind the insurrection, we talked about this yesterday on the show, a wild conspiracy

. >> shannon: tonight's real news roundup, the husband of ashli babbitt suing the d.c. shot and killed babbitt. in april the doj said there was not enough evidence to support criminal prosecution of the officer. florida appeals court has ruled mass mandates are unconstitutional. several florida counties continue to enforce those mandates despite the executive order banning them. disney world has seen a spike in tourists arrested for carrying concealed firearms in the park over the past year. despite the fact that it shuttered for months. there were reportedly at least 20 gun arrests in the first four months of this year there have already been 14. unemployed workers sue over their state's decision to cut the extra $300 weak benefits as millions of jobs across the u.s. remain unfilled. night court is next and you are the jury. it wasn't long after i had joined golo before i had to start buying new pants. golo changes your whole lifestyle and it changes the way that you think. you don't have to deprive yourself of anything.

to whataboutism and started talking about january 6th rioeters and political prisoners and saying ashli babbitt was just some woman executed by capitol police. and it's directly what we've heard from gosar and gohert and others. it's pathetic, but true. >> it is remarkable. whataboutism is an old soviet tactic and now we're seeing it all over u.s. as well. >> we're live in geneva. in a short time we'll speak to former president trump's top russia adviser at the time of the helsinki summit, fiona hill, to help us digest where we go from here with russia p. i can't wait for that. especially what what she's unveiled this week about how she felt during the helsinki press conference. that's ahead. >>> also, back here at home, nearly six months after the january 6th riot, the capitol police inspector general says it's still not clear who was actually in charge of security at the capitol. >>> later, a string of brazen thefts caught on camera in san francisco spotlighting a growing problem as cities across the country fully reopen. i was drowning in ststudent loan debt. i was in the process of

"new day" continues right now. >>> i'm john berman alongside brianna keilar. a police officer who was beaten, tased and nearly killed defending the capitol comes face-to-face with a congressman who called january 6th a normal tourist visit. that officer standing by to talk to us right now. >>> plus, the congressman who says capitol police executed one of the rioters by, quote, lying in wait before killing her. we'll hear what his own brothers say when they join us live. >> and bipartisan deals in the works on infrastructure, police reform, plus powerful senator joe manchin's new p

do you know who executed ashli babbitt? dir. ray: i don't know the name of the person. >> do you agree ashli babbitt was unarmed? dir. ray: that was investigated by d.c. metro's internal affairs department. >> it is disturbing. capitol police officer that did that shooting appeared to be hiding, lying in wait before killing her. why wasn't that officer named when police officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting? dir. ray: it is not one we have been directly involved in so i cannot agree or disagree. >> do you approve of lethal force against unarmed citizens particularly a 110 pound woman with no warning, no use of nonlethal force prior while lying in wait? dir. ray: i'm not going to try to answer a hypothetical based on a case. >> it happened. director ray, the fbi released several 32nd video clips of a suspected by palmer. -- by a pipe bomb her. two clips beginning -- begin and end with a suspect in the frame. you know how long the pipe bomb or was there and which way he exited. the fbi is in possess

ashli was manipulated by people like you.are the liars abusing people for political power. cheney adds this, january 6 as the violent mob advanced i was here gosar and helped him open the gas mask. the capitol police led us to safety. it is disgitsing to see gosar lie about that day and smear the men and women that defended us. >> look. there is no bottom for these folks. you used the term whitewash. we need a stronger term. this revisionism of what happened and on the right you have all these multiple narratives that it was a peace. protest. they were just tourists. okay. there were a few knuckleheads. it was violent but it was antifa. right? it was brave patriots and now moving to suggest ma maybe a false flag operation that was designed by the fbi. the dishonesty mingles with the crazy here but the overall theme is to try to make people forget and down play what happened and what we saw in realtime with our own eyes. and it is interesting that this sedition kauai cause would vote against this resolution and shows you how i

but then there were officers on the other side where ashli was. and it appears it was john sullivan, a trump hater told them if they move out of the way and won't get hurt. they moved out of the way and these guys broke through the glass and yet with all of the people that the f.b.i. has sought information on and put up pictures and appears they were wearing masks, but there's other -- 14,000 hours of video, these guys were around in the capitol, around the capitol, didn't have their masks up at all times. but it doesn't appear that the f.b.i. has asked for assistance in identify those people that broke through the glass or were right there at least when ashli was shot in the neck and killed. and that normally means that they're not asking for help in identifying somebody, that they know who they are and maybe they are person one, person two, person three, person 15 that are referred to the pleadings of people that were working with the f.b.i. or federal authorities of some kind. but this is very unsettling stuff. it was bad enough to have our cap
