bob costa attended and is here. did mike pence respond to president trump at all? >> good evening, norah. he did not. in his first speech since last week's hearing, the former vice president ducked the topic and instead briefly called january 6th a tragic day and he did not address how the former president has in recent days said he didn't have the courage to overturn the 2020 election. it was an attempt to try to pivot away from january 6th, by the former vice president, as he eyes a potential 2024 presidential bid. doing so will be difficult. the house committee said today it still wants to hear from pence and might even issue him a subpoena. cbs news has new reporting on thursday's hearing, a key witness will be a republican statehouse speaker from arizona who will testify about the pressure campaign from trump and rudy giuliani. he will talk about how he decided to follow the rule of law. so will two georgia republican officials. they'll do the same and talk about how trump asked them to go find 11,000 more votes, so that trump could swing the election to himse

but it didn't stop bob costas from saying this. >> this is blood money. it isn't maybe fans of the team would say we should go over there. that isn't the case. this is saudi blood money. brian: your reaction, greg? >> up disappointed when people go down that path. why does the pks ga tour have 23 sponsors within the pga tour doing 20 plus billion dollars of business with saudi arabia. why is it okay thank is a saudi sponsor, the largest sponsor of women's golf in the world. why is it okay for them but those these players. will jay monahan go to each of those ceos and suspend them? and ban them? the hypocrisy in all of this is so loud it's deafening. when -- we are not going anywhere. we want to do what's right serving the fans for the players and our commercial business model. there have been a lot of obstacles. no question about it, that the pga tour has thrown in our path. but we worked around it. >> if you can't get points for playing in your league, and usga says we appreciate what you did but if you play for greg's league you can't play in the majors

carl, i, and bob costa spent a lot of time looking for evidence to suggest or show that this was , theent and stolen. there is zero evidence. it does not pass the common sense test, but i agree with carl but i agree with carl that it really was sedition, a seditious action by trump trying to overturn it, and he failed. now maybe he will run again. judy: that word stops as cold. carl, you use that a minute ago, seditious. bob just said sedition. that is something that two of you did not accuse richard nixon that. this is a different level. >> it certainly is because richard nixon resigned. he went to the south lawn, got on the helicopter, and went into private life. donald trump was trying to attempt to not leave the white house, to continue illegally as the president of the united states. i think there is another really important thing to look at and consider here, that what made nixon go were courageous republicans. judy: when it comes to republicans, the willingness to stand up to a president, there were a number who stood up to president nixon. it is different today. >> in the end,

possibility of that this is clarence thomas's wife jenny thomas and there are indeed questions and bob costa and i did a story in the post and cbs about those 29 emails or i'm sorry, text messages which were stunning because mark meadows, trump's chief of staff texts back and says we are in a war. it is good versus evil. that is our starting point in all of this but i think we just don't know about this and we need to keep an open mind. she says she's happyto cooperate or will answer questions and so forth . and so the question mark is there. ask tender territory to somebody's life was on the supreme court and so forth and the new york times has a story about the letter the committee wrote to her in saying we'd be happy to talk to you about july 6, seventh or eighth but if that isn't convenient so there treading very carefully and i think wisely. >> on what carl was alluding to which is your kind of analysis of the january 6 committee investigation and the degree to which, how you analyze the work that they have done and what they might produce? >> i think it's in terms of material is amazin

joining us now, bob costas. great to see you in person.lson responded to it yesterday? >> well, he's trying to smooth things out, but this is blood money. no wittwo ways around it. this is blood money. this is not like once the nfl was a challenge to the afl and maybe fans would say maybe we'll go over there. that isn't the case. this is saudi blood money. we know all we need to know about the royal family and what they have done. it is not just khashoggi. it is not just the ongoing oppression of women and gays, they're directly or indirectly tied, according to u.s. and british intelligence to the 9/11 event. it is one thing that you just had dick durbin on. it is one thing for the president, dick durbin may have advised him not to meet with them, it is one thing to meet as presidents have with russian leaders over the years or nixon goes to china, that's not a stamp of approval, and they're not being paid by them. this is an entirely different thing. >> why does it look so attractive to some of these players, not all, we should be clear,

well, speaking of this liberalts sports media, here's bob costas weighing in . noko matter cause the destruction's the riots, the deaths that were caused by some of the riots that came out of legitimate protest cannot be justified, but neither can they be accurately compared to january 6th. >> but evidently del rio didn'tt make that distinction. congressman, excusing the death and destruction that occurred after the george floyd killing,, which was devastating to the country. and again, this is all becoming a why these guys go into political punditry. if that's what they want to talk about, that's fine. tik abthey can try to compete at us every night. >> yeah, well, you're looking at somebody who has no idea what it is to build a business and then to see it burn down. you talk about a minorities, blacks, hispanics across the board trying to get to middle class and working one day and it's burned to the ground, which is twenty six lives are lost and they would love toom compareec that the instruction is going across the country because they actually promoted it a

bob costa talks with wyoming congresswoman liz cheney. >> reporter: as one of the leaders of the january investigation, liz cheney has made powerful enemies within the party. her family has supported since the civil war. >> reporter: does it ever get too much, the threats against you, the criticism from the former president and his allies? do you ever say, i'm done? >> no, because i love this country so much. and i won't allow someone like donald trump to unravel the democracy. >> reporter: liz cheney prepares to make a case to the nation, ahead on "sunday morning." >> pauley: our ben mankiewicz is catching up with academy award-winning actor jeff bridges. looking back on a long career and sharing word of a comeback you may have not none anything about. >> reporter: jeff bridges, who was noticeably absent in recent years. >> yeah. oh, yeah. i've been away for a while. with the cancer and the covid and the whole thing. >> reporter: what he calls "the whole thing," nearly took his life. >> my doctors were say, jeff, you've got to fight. and i said, what are you talking about, man? i'm in s

he was reporter bob costa, who should be deeply ashamed, to say something this dishonest. >> thursdaysime hearing will take americans back to january 6th. when an estimated 2,000 rioterse capitol building, causing the deaths of five police officers. >> tucker: it's hard to believe he said that. rioters caused the death of five police officers. he just heard "cbs news" tell us a view was that. this must be the big lie theater. the more bewilderingly false claim is the more likely you will be to believe it. apparently that is what they're betting on. in fact, precisely zero police officers were killed by rioters on january 6th. not five, known, not a single one. how did they get to five? cbs is counting the suicides of local police officers that took place after january 6th. in some cases, long after january 6th. a suicide unfortunately is pretty common among cops. policing is a tough job, as we've written noted. in these specific cases, the ones he's referring to, the chief of washington, d.c.,'s police department told "the new york times" that actually he had no idea it was officers wh

so two nights ago when cbs news bob costa used working with you and should know better and does know better, told his viewers that five police officers wereth killed by the mob at a capital p in jerusalem. there's a lot, none more . one person was shot to death in the capital that they didn't name was ashley babbitt. there was non mentionoe of her whatsoever at last night's hearing actually have a husband joins us now h because he deserves to speak to is the life of a are embedded with kebra in france and on his tour get a better understanding of how exactly he lives between himself and nobody beholden to the country's corporate interests? nothing you you stand for american freedom. fans of love is really the critical country. what are you going? unlike paris where he sees himself and you see myself on front porch glass. this is less of a rock star kid rock crtv the conversation got that on tape. do you have any idea who you met your body? well, it's harder to stop causing you to make up a story for them to support him. or are you uncomfortable because it's harder to get total body s

here's reporter bob costas who should be deeply ashamed to say something this dishonest. >> thursday's prime time hearing will take americans back to january six when an estimated two thousand rioters breached the capitol building causing the deaths of five police officers. it's hard to believe, he said, that rioters caused the deathsf of five police officers.ic you just heard cbs news tell its viewers that this must be the big lie theory. the more bewilderingly falsee a claim is, the more likely youb will be to believe it.el apparently that's what i'm betting on . precisely zero police officers were killed by riotersy on january six , not five none . not a single one .id so how they get to fight? well, cbs is countinge the suicides of local police officers. it took place after january 6th in some cases long after january six . suicide unfortunately is pretty common among copsidty. policing is a tough job, as we've noted. but in these specific cases, the one cbs is referring to, the chief of washington, d.c. police department told the new york times that actually he had no idea if his

. >> let's bring in our chief campaign correspondent robert costa. bob, you spoke with liz cheney where she described an attempted coup by the president of the united states. >> reporter: an attempted coup in the united states of america, not in some faraway nation, but here in washington, d.c., spearheaded by then president donald trump, and that argument from this committee based on months of work, on evidence, was outlined by a republican, a former member of the house leadership, liz cheney, from one of the most payments families in republican politics, it was bracing to hear it from a g.o.p. leader, talking not just to the country but especially to her own party. >> o'donnell: you know, one point, bob, tonight she said, i say this to my republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible, there will come a day when donald trump is gone but your dishonor will remain. it was breathtaking to hear her level those charges against her republican colleagues, but she may no longer be an elected member of the republican party when her primary comessum, c

something bob costa and i wrote about chairman of the joint chiefs milley dealing with nuclear weaponsas an instinct for figuring out the moment. this was two days after january 6, she and milley have a conversation in which she says -- and costa and i have a transcript of this. she says to milley, trump is crazy. how do you know he won't use nuclear weapons? how do you know he is not under control? and milley tries to calm her down. one of the most extraordinary things that i have ever reported on, milley had to call in the watch officers 24/7 in the pentagon and the national military command center who handle the communication between the president and the forces. milley literally had to call them in and say, i want each of you to swear that you understand that our procedures will ensure that i, chairman milley, am involved in any discussion to use military force or nuclear weapons. i mean, the idea that we had to worry about this, that nancy pelosi was worried about it, now listen to cia director burns on his public warnings echoing what vladimir putin, the russian president, has sa

you heard liz cheney tell bob costa she thought it was potentially a criminal conspiracy.t legal argument is going to be the underpinnings of the hearings we hear throughout june. that the president conspired to defraud the american people. but that argument needs to be made in the context of, again, a broader coup that was arranged with various figures like john eastman, trump's attorney, rudy giuliani, another attorney for the former president, mark meadows, and several key players who assisted the former president in his quest to overturn his defeat. >> you know, jonathan lemire, first of all, elise stefanik, again, you talk about just a complete joke of a pose. look how she was when she first came out. it's been obvious she wants to be the next speaker. she wants donald trump to support her to be the next speaker. i expect kevin mccarthy to be pushed out of the way. you don't have to have spent time in washington to understand what's going on. so she pushes the front of the line. but bad news for her, bad news for a lot of the super maga people or whatever, or bad news

. >> in the book bob woodward and bob costa write the president said "if these people say you have the power, wouldn't you want to?" the vice president says "i wouldn't want any one person to have that authority". the president responds "but wouldn't it almost be cool to have that power?" vice president is reported to have said "no, look, i've read this and i don't see a way to do it. we have exhausted every option. i've done everything i could and then some to find a way around this. it's simply not possible. my interpretation is no." to which the president says no, no, no, you don't understand mike, you can do this. i don't want to be your friend anymore if you don't do this. we asked mark short about this during his deposition. >> understanding that i would have in other conversations with the vice president, he articulated to me that no, he wouldn't want that power be stowed upon any one person. >> mr. jacob, did you, mr. short and the vice president have a call later that day again with the president and dr. eastman? >> so, yes, we did. >> and what did dr. eastman request on that

>> bob costas and others at pga are trying to take him out of the hall of fame for starting the leaguend yes, it's saudi's money, but they are investors in uber, and saudis are not perfect, no one said they are going to be. but if they are bad, why do we use them as a wedge to push the abraham accords, why is the president of the united states going there in 2 or 3 weeks. why ok to have it in the tour with ping and others but he comes in with the saudi witheth fund, he's c.e.o. of the organization and puts out a tremendous amount of prize money, he just wants to play, does not want to destroy. pga feels threatened. all 17 of those players are banned and maybe the next one will be the majors. they are trying to vilify and isolate him so he says he will come in and give his side of the story and some sound bites, we just finished it. it will be saturday at 8:00. >> sandra: i, like john, are looking forward to this. a huge watcher of golf and a perfect world with more time i would play more golf but i as mentioned to you off camera, i felt a little sad like the golf world splintered by th

i have read all the presidents men, i read i alone can fix it by woodward and bob costa. the question of restoring faith in federal government and whether it can be performed depends on whether there is a way to get around the republican a blockade, particularly in the senate. that's the remaining question. what do you think about restoring it? what do you think about the possibilities for restoring trust in government now? host: i am always hopeful. i am here to listen to what you think. robert is in virginia on the independent line. caller: good morning. thank you for taking my call. for the trust in the government, if the justice department doesn't take care and convict these people that tried to commit the crimes they did, after that, if they don't convict these people and put them in jail, nobody can believe in the government. that's just the way i feel. i am 74 years old. trump was on yesterday and what comes out of his mouth is garbage. some of things he said make sense, it's the messenger, the type of person he says. why do half the people want to have somebody li

. >> for people to say this is saudi money and bob costas saying it's blood money.e pga talking points in the way that they are attacking a competitor is by going after who is funding that competitor as opposed to the league itself. and to your point, they have been doing this in soccer forever. you got the nba doing games in the uae and china. while lecturing us locally in the united states domestically about all of their politics. these golfers and the organizations themselves have not been particularly political. i personally don't have a problem with people following the best options for them from a capitalistic prospective where they and their families. >> brian: one more topic. between the outtake money and the how do we get rob gronkowski to stay off the field and come to the fox? how much are we willing to shell out of her own money to get them here? >> the reports are that tom brady got over $300 million from fox. i was think that he would be entitled to a little bit of that. for seriously, i think gronk's gonna decide to come back out over time and come no

have it cold as best i can tell and from my own reporting, i just wanted to throw one thing that bob costacia director. this is a controversial cia director, maybe it's impossible to be a cia director and not be controversial but tough, was a case officer. spent years and years evaluating leaders and their stability and who they were. this is what she said a week after the election that trump lost when he fired mark esper, the defense secretary. quote, yesterday was appalling. we are on the way to a right wing coup. the whole thing is insanity. he, trump, is acting like a 6-year-old with a tantrum. i think that's what we saw tonight, and i also think this committee has done kind of the equivalent of what happened in the famous army mccarthy hearing when joe mccarthy was accused by a lawyer in a very memorable way saying you have -- do you have no shame. this committee has essentially said, to donald trump, do you have no shame? >> carl. >> first of all, we have a picture now of the audacity of a criminal conspiratorial president of the united states. not just sedition but a coup he attempt

liv golf ceo greg norman blasting critics of saudi-funded tour, like broadcasters, bob costas lashedickelson, even if he never win as tournament, what is the price for your soul? i liked when we used to call games. what is the price for integrity? this is a clear-cut matter of morality. outkicked host, tomi lahren. great to see you, we'll get to your new show in a moment. what do you make of this back and forth accusation. >> i agree we need to call out hypocrisy in all of its forms. we need to call out atrocity in all of its forms f we're talking about blood money, nba players like king james, lebron, they're playing for blood money because of their continuing cozying up to china? mlb cozying up to cuba and china. if you're going to start call out atrocities call out numerous players, leagues, owners, cozy up to the black lives matter organization committed to funding demonizing police. we'll call out organizations for atrocities. we'll call out organizations for their wrongdoings we have to be consistent with all of this. the uproar about this liv golf tour. i don't seem to underst

. >> in the book peril journalist bob woodward and robert costa write that the president said quote these people say you have the power, wouldn't you want to? vice president says quote i wouldn't want anyone person to have that authority. the president responds, but wouldn't it almost be cool to have that power? >> vice president is reported to have said no, look, i have read this. and i don't see a way to do it we have exhausted every option. i've done everything i could and then some to find a way around this. it is simply not possible. >> my interpretation is no. to which the president says, no, no, no. you don't understand, mike, you can do this. i don't want to be your friend any more if you don't do this. (laughter). >> trevor: okay, you know, this is the parts, the paradox of donald trump, like this is really the paradox, like he has the most terrifying schemes in the world, but he executeses them in the most hilarious ways. because trump basically, he lives his entire life as if he is a bad kid in one of those antismoking psa, like come on, mike, just try overturning the election.

according to the book "peril" by bob woodward and robert costa on the day surrounding january 6 wrgtothers gathered at a hotel just two blocks from the white house discussing plans to delay the certification. >> i'll tell you this, it's not going to happen like you think it's going to happen. >> just the day before on january 5th bannon ominously teased what was to come on his podcast "warroom." >> it's going to be quite extraordinarily different. you have made this happen, and tomorrow it's game day, so strap in. let's get ready. >> everything points to bannon was very closely associated with anything the campaign was doing. >> i think an overwhelming majority of that crowd was there to try to overturn democracy at that point or the democratic process. >> i knew that i was kind of the face of so-called the deep state and the republican party, so i didn't want to be out in public too much, so i never bring my gun into the capitol complex. i prbrought it that day. >> i was sort of nervous for the morning. i was sort of curious to see what the rally was. i was hoping not to hear some o

details on donald trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election from the new book "peril" by bob woodward and robert costathors report on a two-page memo drafted by john eastman john eastman is a conservative lawyer who was working for trump's legal team it amounts to a blueprint for a coup nbc news has later obtained the memo it outlines how pence was to have disrupted the certification of the electoral college results and handed the election to trump. trump tells pence this about eastman, "you really need to listen to john he's a respected constitutional scholar. hear him out listen listen to john." >> seth: he is not a respected constitutional scholar no respected constitutional scholar would ever be caught dead working for a famously corrupt idiot like donald trump. trump gets all his lawyers from bus stop ads and tv commercials. "hey, you want to do a coup? call eastman and giuliani. we don't have a phone number, but you can find us at our office in the woods at central park [ laughter ] even though the cops are always hassling us. we need a permit for a desk in the park now alright. [ laughter ] and

heck, thanks to that original reporting that i just read to you from, from bob woodward and robert costa, we even know that the president threatened to stopping mike pence's friend. for whatever that is worth. i am totally not gonna be your friend anymore, mike, if you don't throw the election my way. which is two days away from the january. from the beginning of the january six public portion of the hearings. where investigators will lay out the results of the congressional inquiry, and so what happens, and into who is ultimately responsible. and yet, we are still learning new details about the lead up to what was almost the successful overthrow of american democracy. the first piece of information today, has to do with this. >> now it is up to congress to confront this agree just assault on our democracy. and after this, we are gonna walk down and i'll be there with you, we're gonna walk down, we are gonna walk down. we are gonna walk down to the capitol! >> that was right before the mob of supporters descended on the capitol on january 6th. appearing to be following orders from the pr

yeah, the first versions of this oval office meeting came from journalists, including bob woodward and robert costa. but the dialogue today was much more dense. it was much more full. i was never fully satisfied, reading the woodward cost the account of what happened. when i couldn't decide was, why didn't trump do it? why didn't he do it? and i believe it's all on steve engel -- what's shows him is, this will be the bigger news story. >> new story, yeah. >> your letter to georgia will be a small story. this will be a bigger story. and that's what the guy understands. he thought, yeah, that's right. my thing won't be page one, which is the mission. so, it won't work. i don't think he cared about the graveyard. i don't think he cared how many people quit. i don't think that was going to stop him. because he knows, you know, nixon did it, some people quit, so what? right? but that thing -- >> it won't work. >> the other one will be the bigger story. >> yeah, it's not like he has a lot of respect for with a justice department represents. he doesn't want to silly that. >> he said something early when i

cbs' robert costa attended the speech in chicago for us tonight. so bobmike pence respond to president trump at all? >> reporter: good evening, norah. he did not. in his first speech since last week's hearing, the former vice president ducked the topic and instead briefly called january 6th a tragic day and he did not address how the former president has in recent days said he didn't have the courage to overturn the 2020 election. it was an effort by pence to try to pivot away from january 6th, as he moves toward a possible 2024 presidential campaign. but doing so will be difficult. the house committee said today it still wants to hear from pence, and might consider issuing him a subpoena. tomorrow's hearing will focus on the pressure campaign led by trump and rudy giuliani on state republican lawmakers. one key witness will be the republican state house speaker from arizona. cbs news learned that he will testify about how he resisted giuliani and followed the rule of law. two georgia republican officials will testify the same. and talk about how trump as
