, any congressional committee, but perhaps also especially a congressional committee with a leader like frank church who had ambitions to run for president, could not be trusted to. carefully examine these intelligence operations and not weaken the nation's national security posture. i think the committee now speaking that particular criticism, i think the committee an outstanding job. it it had full time, four hour a day security operations in the committee's staffing space so that people could not enter or exit without the proper credentials. that was a new operation in the united states senate. no senate had ever had that kind of security operation before. they also when there were there were two incidents on senate staff where people were thought to have shared some information with outside individus. and those people were immediately dismissed, promptly dismissed. so the word among staff the staff who i've talked to was we absolutely will not tolerate leaks. this is very sensitive. we're going to deal with it with the utmost care and respect and sense of responsibility.

now, this was a joint congressional committee that was formed along with the independent commission. e independent counsel. how frequent were joint committees formed of both senate and house members on this? this was quite unusual. there certainly have been joint committees, bicameral efforts in some instances, but this was pretty unusual. they were to select committees, one created in the house, one created in the senate, and what they agreed to do was to hold joint hearings. so they would pursue their investigations, collaborate with each other. but then hold joint hearings and so that so that the, you know, the sort of the public record they were creating and the way they were informing the public would be a little more efficient, a little more coherent in one joint hearing or a series of hearings rather than having separate hearings. jim townsend a few weeks ago, we had you on to talk about the mccarthy hearings, and we looked at the members of the committee and several of them were freshmen. now, here's the senate members of the iran-contra joint committee, the annual in a way, g

they've hired them to come on board as staff at that re congressional committee right now to advise them on election matters. house administration committee i is the committee that actually reads the electoral votes and advises members of congress as to what procedures they should be following while doing things like reading and counting the electoral votes. again, they've hired two people from trump's fake elector scheme in 2020 to advise them as dv congressional staff for that process this year. so, yeah, that does not seem good. and we shouldn't have to worry about and watch for things like that in an election. but in the republican party's trump era, we absolutely do. we should also expect that sometimes the goal will just be chaos, so nobody has trust in the result. you know, chaos and upset. that anger and dread you felt when you saw the headlines today and you saw these images today of burning ballots, of ballot drop boxes that were set on fire in portland, oregon, and vancouver, washington. in vancouver, washington, hundreds of ballots were er destroyed.f in portland, oregon, int

here's a portion no one familiar with the history of his country can deny that congressional committees are useful. it is necessary to investigate before legislating. but the line between investigating and persecuting is a very fine one. and the junior senator from wisconsin has stepped over it repeatedly. his primary achievement has been in confusing the public mind as between the internal and the external threats of communism. we must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. we must remember always that accusation is not proof, and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. jim townsend of the 11 center housing nif account was this broadcast that edward r murrow did. it was a really significant broadcast. it, you know, a lot of people have pointed to that broadcast as a as a watershed moment. there are scholar who who say that, well, as important as it was, it didn't change history. it was part of a series of events that started to damage the credibility of senator mccarthy. but one important thing to remember is and this is hard for us, you know, in the 21st century to

it is the first time some of these details have come to light because unlike the congressional committee that investigated january 6th, the department of justice has subpoenaed flowers over witnesses. witnesses like former vice president mike pence, who tried to get trump to accept his election loss according to a newly unsealed court filing by the special counsel, jack smith in a 165 page document smith writes that pence told trump during a private lunch in november 2020, quote, do not concede but recognize the process is over. in another lunch days later pence urged trump to run again in 2024. trump said i do not know 2024 is so far off. this might be interesting to mike pence, special counsel writes that when trump was informed that his former vice president had to be rushed to a secure location on the day of the insurrection, he replied with two words, so what? we learned an unnamed assistant to trump overheard a remark he made to family members aboard marine one after the 2020 election sang, quote, it does not matter if you won or lost the election, you still have to fight. jack smi
