republicans on the house judiciary committee peppering the ag over his recent memo focusing on parentsdents over their conduct and comments at school board meetings and beyond. the attorney general said he defends the right to free speech and that the parents are not domestic terrorists but that issue and others made for heated moments in that hearing. rick has a story for us. speak out and two and a half weeks after warning of an increase in threats of violence against school administrators, attorney general merrick garland appeared before the house judiciary committee defending department of justice against criticism that the government is unfairly targeting parents. >> when did you first review the data showing the soap called disturbing uptake? >> i read the letter and we've been seeing over time -- >> i didn't asked -- you read the letter. that is your source? >> that letter is a september 30th plea from the national school boards association to president biden. to "investigate, intercept, and prevent the current threats of violence against public school officials to assure that s

now in response to a series of questions before the house judiciary committee including some questions asked by congressman jim jordan from ohio you were asked your factual predicate for your memorandum. you answered that it was the october 22nd memorandum from the national school board association. the national school board association has been mentioned and has since withdrawn that memo and you said that was a factual predicate. given that was the factual predicate and rescinded the memo saying there was no justification for some of the language used in the letter will you rescind your memo? >> senator, best of my recollection i said the impetus for my memorandum was that letter and also reports of this kind of activity. >> what reports? >> i said again at the time that they were news reports that had been published and i think that some of the other senators here have described some of those news reports and we have certainly seen subsequently more news reports and more statements by board members of threats to kill them. >> congressman chip roy of texas said -- raised in that same

host: that from the house judiciary committee meeting earlier this week.ou can watch the whole thing at c-span.org. as the sun begins to rise on this saturday, october 23, asking you what role parents should play in public education. several responses from social media. elizabeth writing, parents should have complete control over their children's education. anne say, parents should play a role in education but let the professionals that we all pay for lead and do their jobs. the majority are not skilled or educated enough to determine curriculum. it is a shame the extremists are trying to bully the professionals about things they don't know or don't exist. also, try to push a whitewashed agenda to keep our kids ignorant. brenda saying, any parent who does not pay attention to anything your child is taught is asking for trouble. go to the meetings, talk to your school board. parents have been allowing liberal indoctrination for 20 years. pay attention. yes, parents should review school programs in advance. jimmy saying, kids are not government property. you

. >> harris: so we've been watching the hearing before the house judiciary committee and the attorney general merrick garland get pretty testy at times. everything from whether or not republicans could show and in particular congressman jim jordan could show a video supporting the questions that they are asking the a.g. about parents being targeted by the f.b.i. specifically about those things and they were denied based on what chairman nadler of the house judiciary committee said was a point of rule there. someone objected and they went on. the back and forth got chippy for a bit. and then just moments ago, we saw something else and they are taking a break now and while they do we'll step in with "the faulkner focus". i'm hair use -- harris "the faulkner focus". a moment ago you saw the a.g. pressed on what may seem to be naked eye a conflict of interest for him to talk at all about going after parents and leveraging the f.b.i. to do that over issues that parents may have on what is being taught inside their children's's classroom. critical race theory. i believe we have a little bit

he sits on the house judiciary committee.g you and thank you for being with us. and we have a lot that we want to get to you, but first, we want to ask your reaction to that developing situation out of haiti. have lawmakers been briefed? do you know what's going on right now to get those people back safely? >> well, we're all in our home districts and homes and i don't think many people have been briefed, maybe some people on intel committees or foreign affairs, but haiti is the most outrageously poor run and violent and lawless spot in the western hemisphere and possibly in the globe. i've been to goma in the congo and it reminds me of goma. it's a terrible situation and we have to be careful not to get troops there, or we'll see another situation maybe like mogadishu, where we'll lose american troops trying to rescue americans. of course, we were trying to help somalis there, but we put our troops in great jeopardy. the united nations needs to get involved and see what they can do. >> goma, referring to the situation in the

meantime attorney general merrick garland moments away from testifying before the house judiciary committee. his first oversight hearing as the justice department is under fire for hot button issues including their efforts to crack down on parents protesting at school board meetings. our next guest is on that committee, louisiana republican congressman mike johnson. great to have you on. we should note you are a constitutional scholar and practiced constitutional law, you know your stuff on this. my question would be a few months ago you went after merrick garland when he came out and said federal vaccine mandates were just fine. you clearly, you know, did not like that. what is your biggest concern about the d.o.j. today and what do you want to hear at this hearing? >> this is a very important oversight hearing. judiciary committee has the responsibility of the jurisdiction to make sure d.o.j. is doing its job and it's not. millions of americans and republicans on this committee deeply concerned that president joe biden and merrick garland have weaponized the justice department. not doing

as a member of the judiciary committee of the house, and now seeing with the senate judiciary committee has revealed, you to have jurisdiction, oversight jurisdiction of what goes on at the justice department, what are your first thoughts about what can be done about this? >> good evening lawrence, great to be on. as always. donald trump's behavior continues to make richard nixon look like a choir boy. there is no bottom, there never will be. that is how corrupt this particular individual, who used to occupy 1600 pennsylvania avenue, is, and how much he has corrupted, the republican party, which is no longer a functional governing party. it's a cult. i think, we came very close to losing our democracy and the more information that is to, fields the clear that becomes. and so i expect that on the house, judiciary committee side, they will continue to explore this information, probate, presented to the american people of course. leading that effort in the house is going to continue to be the select committee, and they were going to have to try to figure out how we can hold some of these i

and so i expect on the house judiciary committee side we'll continue to explore this information, probe it, present it to the american people. of course, leading that effort in the house is going to continue to be the select committee. and then we're going to have to try to figure out how we can hold some of these individuals accountable for their behavior whenever and wherever possible so as to hopefully deter it from ever happening again. >> well, you know, on the deter it part when i was reading this what i kept seeing, and this is something that the trump era really revealed for us so vividly, is that everything the committee staff, the democratic committee staff finds to be a violation, it is almost entirely a violation of norms and a violation of ethical standards setup after richard nixon. and it's all based on this old-fashioned washington notion of a gentleman's agreement that gentlemen simply wouldn't simply make phone calls like this and gentlemen simply wouldn't make requests like this. and there's no structure to police this kind of activity. and there's no -- going forward

house judiciary committee reported the equal act favourably by a vote of 36 to five. the bill is also supported by dozens of groups ranging from the aclu to americans for prosperity. thank you to everyone who has worked so hard to bring us to this point. i urge everyone to support the equal act. that ends this statement by mr. kelly armstrong. and let me just say in conclusion, and i appreciated the comments of mr. jeffries regarding treatment. when i saw during my decade on the bench was, whether it was crack cocaine or powdered cocaine, it was incredibly addictive. and every now and then somebody might be able to deal with their addiction in a 30 day program, but normally it took a lot longer than 30 days. something i thought texas did right was have up to 12 months substance abuse felony punishment facility. some thought it was strange that a strong conservative like myself used that as much as i did. [inaudible] got a better chance of making it out understanding how addictive those substances are all coming from cocaine. and i know the second chance act act dealt

today at a house judiciary committee hearing, attorney general merrick garland said this. >> the housevotes for referral of the contempt charge. the department of justice will do what it always does in such circumstances. it will apply the facts and the law and make a decision consistent with the principles of prosecution. >> joining our discussion now is congresswoman madeleine dean of pennsylvania, she is a member of the house judiciary committee and served as a house impeachment manager in the second impeachment of donald trump. thank you very much for joining us tonight. i want to begin with where we just ended, and that is the attorney general's comment today. it's difficult to imagine him saying anything else under these circumstances, and yet, there is more suspense tonight in washington about what this attorney general will decide than there has been in a long time. >> and yet, lawrence, thank you, number one, for having me tonight. it's a pleasure to be with you. i was in that hearing room today with attorney general merrick garland, and if you flash back, sadly, to the last a

house homeland security committee. congressman, thanks for joining us tonight, let me ask you before we get into the house's letter, take a look at some of the fireworks from yesterday's senate judiciaryo this. >> you have weaponized the fbi and the department of justice. it's wrong, it is unprecedented to my knowledge in the history of this country. >> it is about politicization of doj and you decided to submit as a vessel and you know better. >> do you consider the chilling effect that sort of threat of federal prosecution would have on parents exercise of their constitutional rights? >> this testimony, your directive, your performance is shameful. >> that is not -- >> thank god you're not on the supreme court. you should design in disgrace, judge. edward: congressman bishop, is the attorney general being political here or operating the doj in a fair and balanced manner? >> oh, my goodness i agree with the comments of the senators in the questioning yesterday. there has never been a more politicized misuse of the justice department in american history. this extraordinary memo where the attorney general unleashed the full weight of federal law enforcement against america's parents of

this is what david cicilline, a member of the house judiciary committee told me. he said, with enormous economic power very often comes enormous political power. and they are spending millions and millions of dollars flooding this town with lobbyists and campaign contributions, doing everything they can to stop the reforms. this is the reason that battles against monopolies are hard. so, look, we'll see what happens here. but i will say that proponents of reining in big tech feel like the tides have finally turned in their favor. >> we'll see. there is some bipartisan support, but i'm sure the lobbying machines are churning into action now. melanie zanona on the hill, donie o'sullivan, thank you very much. >>> president biden rejected the latest executive privilege claim by former president trump. this over documents that trump is trying to keep out of the hands of the january 6th select committee. >> cnn white house correspondent jeremy diamond joining us now. jeremy, this is after the former president had filed a lawsuit to stop the national archives from turnin

i thank the distinguished chair of the house judiciary committee jerry adler for yielding and moving this important piece of legislation forward. i also thank kelly armstrong, who is the lead republican who has sponsored this legislation for his advocacy and his efforts to advance this critical piece of legislation, and i thank my good friend, the distinguished gentleman from texas, congressman gohmert, who indicated that we had had a previous conversation with then-congressman cedric richmond at a judiciary committee hearing about his willingness to be supportive of moving forward with a bill to deal with the sentencing disparity that relates to crack cocaine and powder cocaine. so i rise in support of hr-1693, the equal act, legislation that will finally eliminate the federal crack and powder cocaine sentencing disparity, which has devastated families' lives and communities across the country. as has been indicated since 1986, shortly after the tragic death of basketball star len bias. the anti-drug response made the 100-1 disparity between crack cocaine and powder cocaine. 500 gra

and then thursday attorney general garland will be before the house judiciary committee for an oversight hearing of the justice department. and there is a lot of issues he will be grilled on that day from january 6 committee but also on abortion more generally and texas abortion law. immigration is a huge one that republicans are pointing to there is a huge range ofs topics. a lot is happening this week at the hearing level that we haven't seen. sometimes a play out in the background to dominate the news coverage and we will see what else. host: independent line go ahead. >> number one i don't like either one of the's bills they are full of things we do not need. why aren't they talking about getting the deficit down instead of spending all this money? >> thank you for that. a lot of people are talking about getting it down. democrats in particular but also they had been saying we cannot be spending as much as we have been with these two packages together will be trillions of dollars. the argument from the white house is they are really trying to make a broader social spending package. n

as you'll remember, i was a member and still am a member of the house judiciary committee and we sawion play this exact same playbook time and time again as they stonewalled congressional investigations. but what has changed, of course, and what is different now is that the department of justice is obviously -- you have an attorney general at the head of the department of justice who i think cares a great deal about co-equal branches of government, separation of powers an ebb suring the constitutional prerogatives of the congress are respected. at the end of the day if witnesses can defy subpoenas without consequence, then congressional oversight really no longer exists and it's hard to make the case congress is a co-equal branch of government in that circumstance. i take very seriously the select committee's language that was in the release today with respect to criminal contempt of congress, a referral to the department of justice. time will tell as to whether or not the department of justice under attorney general garland will ultimately implement that referral and pursue it. but
