[crowd chanting] [crowd chanting] [overlapping shouting] [dramatic musical sting] - if you wanted to see an early version of january 6, 2021, go look at the footage of the police riot of 1992 city hall in new york city. [cheers and applause] - thousands of off-duty cops who normally patrol the streets now taking them over outside city hall. - i'm just tired of watching crime run rampant, and we're not doing anything about it because our hands are tied. every time we do something, it seems like we're getting indicted. - they had come for a big demonstration around city hall. you know they came prepared for the battle. you could see the anger in their faces, and you know that they meant business. [crowd chanting] - it was a show of force on the steps of new york city hall. 10,000 off-duty cops banded together in protest, fed up and angry with the city they claim doesn't back them up. the mayor's plan for an all-civilian board to review police miscondu

ladies and gentlemen, rudy giuliani. - the misperception that somehow donald trump changed rudy giulianiolice department has done more than any police department in the united states to train its police officers to be respectful. - rudy giuliani always, without any tutoring from donald trump-- and i'm the last person to defend donald trump, but without any tutoring from donald trump, used demagoguery, half-truths, and provocation all of his career. even at his strongest moment, it showed me how limited he was. and 9/11 gave him the opportunity. all of us have made mistakes in public life growing up, but if you get an opportunity, you grow, and you show your growth. he couldn't do it. it just was not him. - we begin this hour with breaking news. - in new york, there are civil and criminal investigations into the former president's business dealings. and in georgia, a special grand jury is looking into efforts to overturn the 2020 election. tomorrow in atlanta, rudy giuliani is expected to testify. - we will not talk about this until it's over. it's a grand jury, and a grand jury's, as i r

that goes to rudy powell, rudy giuliani, sidney powell and donald trump himself.og of the rupert murdoch deposition that was so explosive, just a few days ago in the dominion versus fox litigation. the whole idea is to be able to show that those speaking knew what they were saying was not true and they said it anyway. >> one of the bets that trump and rudy and all these folks make is that by stomping on the -- what they view as the voiceless, that the behavior continues. one of the perils in my personal opinion of zero accountability in terms of the federal government seeing any crimes here in this space, and they may ultimately, it may be part of what jack smith is doing, jack smith is maybe doing a whole lot and i hope he is, but one of the reasons that it keeps happening is because to donald trump, the voiceless remain voiceless. nothing happens. there is no consequence for destroying the lives of shaye moss and ruby freeman. what is your view on the stakes of getting this right? >> i think our way of life. the substance of the rule of law. it feels like we're

this was rudy giuliani.cause we had this common enemy. and nobody wanted to say anything badly about him. but there were instances where the fire fighters union was begging rudy for the truth and he wasn't willing to say. he was willing to throw his hand in the purdue pharma ring and support them through the opioid epidemic which it is incredible to think about. this lead rudy down darkened d places which is ultimately where we meet rudy deep in ukraine. >> here's the, thing a lot of people who look at rudy giuliani now and think, that guy has changed, it's not the same guy he was 20, 30 years ago. do you see it that way? >> i would argue that i think he's always been this same manipulator of people, of truth of somebody who is wildly ambitious and willing to do anything to get their, to align with anybody who will take him the next step into the trajectory of his career. so while i think that things have gotten a little bit more advanced, these days some of them has to do with social networking and how we r

giuliani. there he is before the grand jury today, testifying for trump which is part of the process. a person facing possible charges, you should know, can legally request a witness appear for them under new york law and that itself was not some giant surprise. we had collected information that trump's new york lawyers were, of course, talking to the d.a., and i asked joe's current counsel joe tackopena. >> we are shocked that this has gotten this far. >> you're telling me, here's this misdemeanor and it's not a strong campaign finance case. did she say stuff like that? >> mr. tacopena told me and also confirmed in that interview that he and his co-counsel had met with the d.a. you say what's the point of a meeting like that? today shows what the point of a meeting like that is. you make your case and sometimes you learn where they're headed and you say did you speak to mr. costello, we know new york law and we want him to be able to testify which he did today. now that is a sign that the new

they wouldn't have to believe that somebody believed what giuliani and powell were saying.hey will put on evidence that people believed it. >> before we get too far between what we are seeing in these filings and heading into the trial. i think dominion would say they expect it to go to trial. you are a better authority than i am. can you just take us through the basics of the law of what dominion is trying to prove and how fox is trying to defend itself? >> sure. dominion has taken it upon itself to carry two burdens here. i will start by saying it is arguable whether dominion, in fact, has to carry those burdens or some lesser burden. it has taken it upon itself to clear the highest bars. one of those bars is to show that the people responsible for the broadcasts at fox, both knew what powell and giuliani were saying were probably -- was probably false and also that they endorsed, on the broadcasts, the accuracy of what giuliani and powell were saying. if they clear those two hurdles, both on summary judgment, which is what these hundreds of pages of filings that you are

to the washington post, jack smith's team is asking witnesses about giuliani's actions before jan sixth, and the poses investigators are ramping up the pressure on trump's lawyers involved in the classified documents case. our friend jackie alemany as one of the reporters who broke that story, and here is what she said about it earlier today. >> the way that we see it, he started sprinting to the -- decision before the 2024 presidential primary really heats up. >> meanwhile we are also following the on -- convicted murderer alec talks murdaugh today. he was sentenced to life in prison. the sentence happen less than 24 hours after a jury found him guilty of killing both his wife and son. today one of those jurors described how they arrived that verdict and how they did it so quickly. >> it was to not guilty and one not sure. and nine guilty. >> what was your vote? >> guilty. we started the live deliberating going through the evidence and everybody was pretty much talking. and in about 45 minutes later after all our deliberating, we figured it out. >> tonight south carolina prison officia

including rudy giuliani.federal prosecutors investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 election have asked witnesses about giuliani's actions, including where he got his information about alleged fraud, what he did in the days around january six, and what he knew about the actions coming that day, that's according to people who have appeared in front of the grand jury. multiple other trump attorneys are also under scrutiny, a spokesperson for trump told the post, the strategy is a sign of weakness in the case, against the former president. sure jan. joining me now is former senator doug jones, distinguished senior fellow at the center for american progress. senator jones, welcome back to the show. so your reaction to the post story that jack smith is focusing in on trump's lawyers, former lawyers. >> well i have to be honest jonathan, i'm not surprised. given what we saw, that came out of the january six committee, i don't think that this is all a matter of attorney-client privilege or anything like that. if

the grand jurors were emotiona in their interview, about th harm the donald trump and rudy giuliani, and the rest of hi liars inflicted on people, b the lies they told about the election harm to individuals, and to al of the american people among the most compellin witnesses, various jurors said as a fulton county coworkers ruby freeman and her daughter, shaye moss, who had received death threats after bein singled out by trump and his then attorney rudy giuliani. another mentioned eric comer the one-time executive for dominion voting systems, who left his job after being vilified it also mentioned trisha rea raffensperger, the wife of secretary of state bra raffensperger, who broke dow when describing the vitrio threats levered at her it was pretty emotiona throughout the whole thing, juror said i wouldn't cry in front of any of the witnesses, but when i would get in my car, i was like, i just left that, and i have t go do my job now i just know things that ar hard to know a grand juror, crying in the car after hearing the donald trump and rudy giuliani di that to ruby freeman and s

to practice it's now a mounting list o trump lawyers who are facing disciplinary proceedings rudy giuliani was the most prominent of the first round o people who had their license t practice law suspended and it seems like we'll have more of this >> yeah, lawrence, generally, do have some hesitations about attorney liability here. i do really want zealous advocacy, i'm worried abou reprisals on lawyers i do think sometimes the publi confuses the sins of a clien for the sins of the lawyer i'm inclined, generally, t give people the benefit of the doubt and wait for the facts but steven is professor gilles is absolutely right with respect to passantino, if this is true, forget about the duty of candor, there's a duty to your own client, and it look like he betrayed that with having a secret client in th name of donald trump, it's straight out of the mafi playbook, not the oval offic playbook and then you broaden that lens out, not just to passantino bu city powell, rudy giuliani john eastman and so on, it's a robust list. i think there are 17 different trump attorneys at this poin who've been

>> i think -- look at rudy giuliani. look at president trump. is something that is wide reaching in its experience in the world. some is done in a way that is based on a mockery and some is done in a way that is based in celebration. there's no such thing as an easy and subtle way to police gender nonconformity except in a way that targets communities that are already under assault. i think it is very clear in every instance, what we're seeing in state legislatures, we can identify the hypocrisy. we have who consider themselves pro-life that are introducing bills that would punish abortion with the death penalty. we have individuals claiming they're concerned about protecting children when the leading cause of death among children is death by firearms. they're focusing their energy on cutting off health care, removing children from loving homes, drug performance, and doing nothing to prevent the actual harms coming to our children at a time when, by the way, there is substantial evidence our young people are facing significant mental health cris

rudy giuliani had the wrong phone number.e never met him, i don't know him, i -- you know, he was -- i barely even understood what he was saying. so, it was something about, you know, relooking at this. it was, like i said, for another senator. i had listened to it a few days after and to be honest, it was quite bizarre, and, again, i don't even know rudy giuliani. >> all right. i -- no, i -- it seemed bizarre. i just wanted to know -- >> it was, trust me. it was bizarre and it was the wrong number, to be perfectly honest. >> all right. republican senator dan sullivan of alaska, thank you so much, good to see you, sir. >> thank you, jake. >>> larry hogan says he won't run for president, blaming a crowded republican field among other reasons, so, who else might need to step aside? hogan will tell me when he joins us next. stay with us.

giuliani are effing liars. account so far it was soul stolen by various software companies as more time gainers. they're having the same reaction internally to the lies that anyone with a functioning critical faculty must-have. >> yeah. i think that's exactly right. in this latest batch of documents, some of which have been covered before, you see further evidence of this behind the scenes discussion among fox news hosts an executives and producers saying that they didn't believe the claims of sydney powell and rudy giuliani. and yet they continued to air them for weeks and to give them an essentially uncritical platform. and dominion has really assembled an impressively and strong amount of evidence demonstrating that at the time that fox was airing the claims of rudy giuliani and sidney powell and others, it knew that those statements were false and thus had actual malice, as you mentioned, under the supreme court's decision in new york times versus sullivan. that's an important decision. it plays a very crit

they repeatedly texted each other mocking trump advisor sydney powell and rudy giuliani saying, quote case said he knew hosts on his network, quote, endorsed trump's big lie, and that he himself didn't even believe in it. now, thanks to peter baker at the new york times this weekend, we've discovered that even the quote unquote street -- were saying one thing on air and another thing entirely behind the scenes. the new york times reports that any virtual election -- they both suggested it was not enough to call a state based on numerical calculations. nbc news has not independently heard the recording, but the times report that my column said on-call, quote, in a trump environment, the game is just very, very different. and then he went on to say, i know the statistics and the numbers, but there has to be, like, this other layer. now, let me ask you, what possible other layer could there be? other than the facts? you know, the numbers? look, i've long argued that we should not be calling fox a news organization because it just does not behave like one. given all that we've seen come o

he represents rudy giuliani, he represents steve bannon. experience, as a reporter, he has never steered me wrong. but, he has come under scrutiny for some of his decisions and in other investigations. but ultimately, it's up to the grand jury. it's interesting they could have called michael cohen to rebut his testimony and they didn't. will this be enough to change the grand jury's mind? unlikely, but it certainly made for an interesting day at court. >> this is truly everyone is watching and waiting. and you're covering it. thank you, paula reid. appreciate it kaitlan? >> how did we get here given this is something that has been reported for years now. so for more on this i want to bring in an investigative reporter at "the new york times," was a member of the pulitzer prize winning team at "the wall street journal" that revealed the hush money deals involving trump and the co-author of the book "the fixers, the bottom feeders, crooked and porn stars who created the 45th president" quite a title there. but you have been -- you were on the

as we mentioned, he' represented giuliani not onl in the ongoing fulton county investigation, but als represented him in the souther district of new york's ukraine investigation. that's the investigation tha -- and slow, his involvement with trump world, we haven't even gotten the bannon -- it's just so deep an long-standing that his credibility could be easil tarnished to so for donald trump to take to truth social today and call bo costello the most importan witness in this case i borderline laughable, give that he has his own incentiv structure here, and it has nothing to do with telling the truth about michael cohen. >> what would you say to critics who are looking at this, perhaps, with a little bit o skepticism and saying this cas is a bit small, it's not worth the time where the resources it may appear to be politicall motivated? >> you know, any violation o the law is worth pursuing. but you know what, i think it' well-placed criticism. i maintained for a very long time, donald trump violate federal statutes he's a federal problem that should involve federa solution that looks

, as you, mentioned he's representin giuliani not only in the ongoing fulton count investigation, butepresenting him in th southern district of new york' ukraine investigation. that's the investigation tha stems from our both, france -- , so his involvement like trum world, we haven't even got t bannon in the contempt o congress case. it's just so deep, long-standing, that hi credibility could be easil tarnished to for donald trump to take t social today and call bo costello, the most important witness in this case it's borderline laughable, given that he has his ow incentive structure here and it has nothing to do wit solely telling the truth about michael cohen. >> what would you say to critics, who are looking a this perhaps left a little bit of skepticism and, saying this case is a bit small. it's not worth the tim resources. it may appear to be politicall motivated. >> any violation of the law is worth pursuing but you know, at its while placed criticism i've maintained, for a ver long time now, donald trum violated federal statutes, he' a federal problem and that should involve

[ laughter ] oh, that's not -- [ laughter ] seriously, what happened there? did they turn off the wi-fi at rudy's nursing home? this is like watching one of those live webcams from the san diego zoo where the monkeys start humping the camera. [ laughter ] although, i have to say, i think the hand over the camera is actually an improvement over seeing rudy's face. just draw some eyes and a mouth over it. there you go, problem solved. [ laughter and applause ] also, i loved it when [ bleep ] starts going sideways

this is the crime for which trump's closest attorney, rudy giuliani, has already confessed on fox news, so, the facts of this are not in question they've been established over and over and over again. so, i wonder -- and i want to show you some of cohen's public testimony again, delivered under oath to congress, and despite his interfaces with law enforcement, none of this congressional testimony that i'm about to play has ever been called into question i want you to take us through the crimes that are under scrutiny by this grand jury. let me play this first and then we'll have that conversation >> in 2016, prior to the ele election, i was contacted by keith davidson, who is the attorney, or was the attorney, for miss clifford, stormy daniels, and after several rounds of conversations with him about purchasing her life rights for $130,000, what i did, each and every time, is go straight into mr. trump's office and discuss the issue with him when it was ultimately determined, this was days before the election, that mr. trump was going to pay the $130,000, in the office with me was alle

without giving him the appearance that we are following instructions from giuliani.and i'll tell you that there are other emails that have been published in the new york times and elsewhere. where mr uh mr costello is actually trying to impress mr cohen that he's so close to mr giuliani. here's the text of a voicemail message, and mr giuliani's quote client holds you in great favor, so this is all part of dangling gang pardons dangling everything else and that's all i can say about mr costello. lanny do hopefully you can tell us this. do you expect that michael cohen is going back before the grand jury in manhattan this week. i have no idea. i can't say that he can't go back in front of the grand jury unless i'm there, and i've gotten no phone calls and no invitations. we were there in case mr costello needed to be contradicted, and we sat for two hours waiting. and then we were told dope. we don't need you. so that speaks for itself. don't know michael is the answer. doesn't the fact that michael cohen has repeatedly testified before the grand jury suggests the impo

it's even sort of shakespearean that rudy giuliani who as u.s. attorney for the southern district was the great prosecutor of maffioso himself. >> and was taking notes. >> and has become a mob lawyer himself. it's sad, it's tragic. part of the reason we're discussing this, i would be curious what andrew says about it, there must be a special place in lawyer hell for lawyers who violate the law and become mob lawyers. i assume jack smith and any prosecutor must have a special animus against people like that. by the way, that's just chapter and verse all the lawyers who have ever worked for donald trump. >> andrew? >> so i think if you think about how the special counsel's looking at jeff clark, who is the attorney at the department of justice who said, i want to be the attorney general. i'm going to say that we're doing a fraud investigation because it will give bigly or the former president to claim fraud, it's hard for me to believe that that -- that jeff clark does not hold a special place in terms of the department wanting to see if there's a

maybe she can fix all of this by going back in time to stop baby rudy giuliani from trying merlot! weirder than time traveling in a semiconscious state. the memo's author writes, "who am i? and how do i know all of this? i've had the strangest dreams. i was internally decapitated, and yet, i live." you may ask yourself, how did i get here? and you may tell yourself, this is not my beautiful house. you may say to yourself, this is head! not my internally decapitated head! elsewhere in this memo -- which i remind you is the sole source of sydney powell and fox news's dominion voting machine lies, which directly led to the attack on the capitol -- the author says, "the wind tells me i'm a ghost, but i don't believe it." of course, you can't trust the wind! everyone knows the wind blows. you can't believe a thing the wind says till you verify it with earth and fire. when sidney powell forwarded this memo to fox business anchor maria bartiromo, bartiromo had a very logical reaction to getting a packet of insane lies. she shared it with the president's son, and replied glowingly to powel
