let's get to brett tolman.ou know, what you're saying deneen is not yet to be confirmed but there are reports coming across social media. we'll try to confirm what you just told us. you know, brett, we have a woman shot inside of the capitol building. she has now passed away. we seem to have protests overtaking stat capitols of half a dozen states. your thought what is happened today? >> liz, it's a scarey time to be on the hill when something like this happens. i was there not long after 9/11. we were evacuated multiple times. we had the governor of kentucky fly into unthorrized airspace. sirens went off. we were bunkered down a while. that was over quickly. the anxiety, fear, was palpable, it is difficult. this is even worse. i agree with the deneen, it doesn't matter which political party we are, what we want as a country in consistency in response to violence and riots. regardless of what party you, regardless of your beliefs. if you resort to violence after a peaceful protest is launched we need to have co

attorney brett tolman.irst to you, congressman, what is going on with these threats we're hearing to the white house, to the supreme court building and to the capitol building starting this weekend through inauguration day? were you briefed by authorities on this. >> i've been briefed. i've been privy to classified information. i can say this. that the intelligence community has picked up various different hate groups across america that have suggested that this could be a potential target but i just arrived into washington back from kentucky and i can tell you this place is fortified unlike i have ever seen it. so i have a lot of confidence in our national guard troops who are around. and i think that hopefully from last wednesday everyone has learned a lesson and we'll never see that repeated again. elizabeth: brett, sit tight. i want to stay on this with the congressman. we're hearing of four separate plans to attack washington starting this weekend through inauguration day. one involved thousands of pot

attorney brett tolman.gressman, first to you, what do you make of this, if the senate trial doesn't start monday or tuesday, trump is out of office on january 20th but the constitution does not allow for a senate trial of a private citizen. it covers government office holds. so is the senate, could a senate trial just not go on because it would be unconstitutional? >> yeah, i think you have a situation, a circumstance the framers never thought about, impeaching somebody who is no longer precedent. the plain reading constitution you have to impeach a president. if trump is out of office when you start the trial you have a legal questions on your hands whether the senate has authority to move forward in the impeachment trial. you will have a lot of issues. look at the precedent being set, the poor precedent being set in the house. not a single witness was heard, not a single hearing was had, we rushed the impeachment to the floor, pelosi rushed the impeachment to the floor to a vote. not a single witness or h

on pardon peddler is former federal prosecutor and rejected wilson brother, brett tolman.man has collected tens of thousands of dollars to seek clemency for a variety of clients, including the son of a former arkansas senator, the founder of the online drug marketplace silk road, and a manhattan socialite who pleaded guilty in a fraud scheme. i believe we have a copy of that request. "dear daddy, pardon pleeeeez! xo ivanks." but one guy is really looking for the big bucks, and no surprise, it's presidential lawyer and man oozing what he insists is just charm, rudy giuliani. according to an ex-c.i.a. agent who is seeking a pardon for disclosing classified information, he met with rudy and his associates last year. when rudy went to the restroom, one of his henchmen said the mayor could help, but "it's going to cost $2 million. he's going to want two million bucks." that's a lot of money. but, as a lawyer, rudy's worth every penny. it's the dollars i'm not so sure about. giuliani denies he or his associates ever asked for $2 million. in fact, giuliani claims he does not reme

i thought brett tolman made a great point in the last hour. if i'm going to bring a case to court, i can't just say to the judge, i'm skilling the arguments and witnesses and jury because this is so important. it's not the way our system works. regardless of what we think of what happened on january 6th, there is a process to these things. and that is something president trump, or people he wants to support in the future as candidates across this country can look back to and point to. he could come out of this looking like someone who was wronged, maligned by the process. that could help him build his stature or rebuild his stature if he chooses to do so. it's always important to look at the moment we're in, but also to look ahead and see where these chess pieces are moving. everybody's making a bet on which side they should be on. some will be right and some will be wrong. >> martha, speaking of looking ahead, we don't have to look too far. bill, you mentioned in the polling, you cited 77% of americans think congress would be better -- better
