joining me now is cnn contributor and republican election lawyer ben ginsberg. see you, ben. what is your reaction to this reporting? how should we all feel right now? should we be worried about possible reactions from the president? it's certainly an unsettling time. >> well, certainly your reporting suggests that we should be concerned about that, and, frankly, mike pence saying that he is still considering invoking the 25th amendment confirms that reporting that the president is not stable, that is capable of doing things that has mike pence and members of trump's own cabinet worried about him. >> and i do want to be clear just to put it into context that i did speak to another source who said, look, it's not under serious discussion, it's not like he's actively discussing it but he essentially doesn't want to rule it out with 11 days left in office and also want to get your reaction to the comments from congresswoman sheila jackson lee. i just spoke with her, do you think the democrats will be able to make impeachment charges stick this time and convince eno

mayor ginsberg: thank you for joining us today. i was so hard by your recent comments to the washington post on what success might look like as secretary u.s. dot. you said the department is one that empowers local leaders to make and drive decisions that work in their communities. this attitude is critical to us as mayors because our cities all have unique challenges and opportunities. in columbus, we are wrapping up our work on the u.s. dot smart city challenge, where we have surpassed all of our goals around electrification, mobility, and safety. you know better than anyone that if you want to get things done, you go to america's mayors. i know our colleagues are very excited about working with you in the years to come. as you know, our cities are america's greatest laboratories for innovation. how do you envision the department of transportation under your leadership working directly with mayors around restorative infrastructure, equity, and smart mobility? mr. buttigieg: it is good to see you, mayor, and congratulations on all

institute and talked with mr ginsberg ahead of me as you well aware and talked with the researcher who was the response and i think. there's something very generous of them to be the 1st to test it on themselves. see the effects and only then continue with the experiments and only then are committed to the splash you know to other western journalists already took the book seen in a 1000000 over a half of course of russian citizens did take the vaccine so i thought. yes why not let's try it it's a huge multi $1000000000.00 market and maybe some of the response to the russia book scene is nobody wanted the russian to take part in the cake in the party if you can call it that so i think the moment that the european medicine authority will sit on the papers going there and see a need to prove be approved or not will be a really important day for this and the coffee and of course i'll be happy for you if you get the approval. europe is moving closer to introducing coronavirus passports with greece and italy saying the scheme could provide a way out of the current restrictions that not all c

russia has that the continent is maybe the world they risk their life so i'm not saying that when mr ginsberg understandings on the malaya took the show it was exactly like dealing with a nuclear reactor exposed but there was a risk and i think. there's something very generous of them to be the 1st to test it on themselves. see the effects and only then continue with experiments and only then are committed to the other so so yes i think those are brave people and i really enthusiastic and looking forward to see the results of the mass testing or the massive oxidation of the whole population. it least it would be just for the scientists the it got so much scrutiny in the beginning of the process. right we've been speaking with our israeli news anchor thank you for your time and your comments today. germany is extending and toughening its current coverage restrictions nation why did you spiking infection rates chancellor angela merkel's announcement comes amid rising public hostility towards the lockdowns. tonight all of our efforts to stop the spread of the virus faces a serious threat i would

and yes, r.b.g., ruth bader ginsberg who taught us a lot about equality and inclusion. it's up to us to restore the vibrancy, madam speaker, of our democracy by re-affirming our commitments to the norms that they passed on to us and entrusted to our care. but to make that possible, madam speaker, we must rise to this moment and not only affirm the virtues we cherish but reject the vices we abhor. that's what i'm asking my fellow representatives on both sides of the aisle to do today. we all stood and we abhorred the violence that occurred and the threat to the very democracy that we hold so dear and swore and oath to protect and uphold. rejected deceit. reject fear mongering. reject sedition. tyranny. insurrection. reject the demand for fielty to one man over fidelity to a country. when i addressed the house over the debate in articles of impeachment december 2019, i said the following. we need not ask who will be the first to show our courage by standing up to president trump. the question we must ask, who will be the last to find it. senator mcconnell, representative

election law and at the academic level, he's been general counsel for presidential campaigns in way ginsbergn on the republican side. bob has seen a lot of stuff. i think what he puts his finishing own there is that this tape pulls together a unified picture something we had evidence of, something we had pest of the puzzle before, but it just brings in one hour it paints the perfect and i say perfect in sense of perfectly clear picture of everything about what we know, we thought we believed and seen threw a glass what donald trump was capable of, what he was willing to do and how little respect he has for the basic precepts for how elections are to work. >> thank you all for stick around for longer than i know we asked to you. i wanted to talk to all of you since this story first broke in the "washington post". as we've been saying we're moments away from joe biden's rally in georgia. we'll listen in to what he has to say. its his first public comments after trump's hour long phone call pressuring state officials in georgia to rig election he already lost. don't go anywhere. ♪ we made usaa

in september of you slammed 2020, senate republican efforts to fill the late justice ginsberg's seat. you said and i quote those bent , on choosing her successor have no decency. they have no honor. they have no integrity. you went on to say and i quote they are a disgrace to this , nation. congresswoman, it is one thing to have strongly held views and disagreements. but i'm troubled by this and several other statements. because in my mind they raise , questions about your willingness and ability to work with republicans if this is your opinion of republicans. one such category of areas where we need to be able to work together is how you as hud secretary will implement housing policies that affect millions of americans. i hope to learn more about how you will address hud regulations on affirmatively forwarding fair housing. i hope you will avoid returning to the costly obama-era rule that forced cities to hire consultants and complete lengthy plans that could stretch as long as 800 pages. in my view, now is not the time to impose unfunded mandates on these communities, which will dra

there was some discussion years ago of asking ruth bader ginsberg, hey, maybe it's time for you to step sure president obama gets a new pick and so forth and so on and democrats have just generally not done that. they don't have the kind of farm team screening and vetting process the way on the right you have the federalist society. so, yes, maybe some of that was change in light of what they saw. a president voted out after one term, who was impeached, who lost both the house and apparently also the senate, also got three supreme court picks. it's got to really weigh on people's minds and don't think that justice breyer isn't going to hear it from some liberal progressive groups that maybe this is a good time to write a couple of books, otherwise let the supreme court come back to some kind of centrist politics if that's what breyer wants to do. this is the thing about a lifetime appointment, john. nobody can make them do anything they don't want to do. >> alison camerota knows that well. >> this is a throne you can't get off of. >> thank you very much for all of the analysis on this p
