>> i have great admiration for jim clyburn and probably no one is closer to president biden. but i think we should send the impeachment articles away for two reasons. first, it would send the ball in mcconnell's court, and let's make it clear if he's not willing to hold the president accountable. second, as you know, wolf, these impeachment trials take three days. it was three days with president clinton, it was three days in the first president trump's impeachment trial, so it's not going to cause that much delay. >> let me get your answer on another subject that's really clearly very important. the district you represent in congress, silicon valley, the president has now been banned from facebook, from twitter, most other social media platforms, instagram. it's controversial with some that are accusing these companies of what they call censorship. what is your response? >> i don't think it's censorship, because even bran n brandenburg under the first amendment says you cannot incite violence. this is not the president being asked his opinion. if khomenei and iran are inciti

and that's why i think jim clyburn is articulating an approach that would enable us to do both things. >> because as you know and as you heard the biden team is clearly deeply concerned that the president-elect's agenda could get way bogged down if everyone is focusing in on a trial, an impeachment trial in the senate. especially when it comes to the critical issues about getting cabinet members confirmed by the senate, also the covid crisis that's still exploding, worse than ever right now. we'll have more on that. the numbers are exploding as you all know. and the economic issues that have to be dealt with. do you worry that if there's a trial in the senate it could bog all that down? >> that's why while a trial is going on it's hard for the senate to conduct any other business. that's why what jim is suggesting and nancy is also contemplating makes a lot of sense and at the same time we're holding the president accountable. that is a very important thing to do. you can't have a president running around doing whatever he wants, especially a president who believes he is beyond the la

joining us now, house majority whip jim clyburn, and congressman, welcome back to "fox news sunday." resentative clyburn: thank you very much for having me. >> chris: have speaker pelosi and you and the democratic leadership, have you made a firm, final decision whether or not to vote on impeachment of president trump this week. >> congressman clyburn: i think so. i think that will come probably tuesday and maybe wednesday. but it will happen this week. the article has been drawn up. jamie raskin and the leadership of been working very hard to make sure that it is exactly what is required to demonstrate to the senate, maybe the house first, that this president has rendered himself really unqualified to be president. >> chris: congressman, if the house does vote to impeach, will you hold up, delay, sending it over to the senate until those two democrats who won in georg georgia are certified and chuck schumer becomes the majority leader, which also raises the question, does it make sense for the senate to have a trial even after president trump leaves office? >> congressman clyburn: we

the whole idea of impeachment he's left it to congress saying it's really up to them to decide jim clyburn who is the man who saved joe biden's presidential career because he is a representative from south carolina it was him that gave him his indorsement in the south carolina primary if joe biden hadn't won the south carolina primary back in march joe biden would never have got close to the nomination for the democratic party and he is suggesting that perhaps it would be better for congress to wait at least the 1st $100.00 days and that was a milestone set up by a date j.f.k. he decided that the 1st 100 days would be very important in his presidency and that has become a benchmark then for other presidents what have you achieved in your force 100 days to jim clyburn is saying let's get the force $100.00 days out of the way and then tonight attention to donald trump so nothing gets in the way of what joe biden has to do because remember if if the senate has to start having hearings about whether or not to impeach joe biden they're not paying attention to the very important issue of confirm

. >> that's an interesting proposal from jim clyburn.thank you so much. >>> joining me now is congressman madeline dean. she serves on the judiciary and financial services committee. i'm glad to see you, my friend. let's get into this. what do you make of what congressman clyburn is suggesting? get the prospect of impeachment through the house, wait awhile, let joe biden get things accomplished and bring it to the senate. as i understand it, you and about 250 other lawmakers are calling on the president to be removed from office. i mean, is it realistic to approach him realistically speaking with ten days left until the inauguration? >> it's good to be with you, alex. as usual, even under the extraordinary stressful circumstances. let me reach out and offer my sympathies to the family of brian sicknick who died in the line of duty 12 years a capitol police officer. my sympathies go to him. i also understand that an off duty police officer has died howard linden-good. my sympathies with his family. in terms of the timing and what we will

races commentary himself so this isn't exactly new comments from leaders like jim clyburn who is the majority whip he's obviously a congressional black caucus member comments from him saying that this was an inside job specifically noting that there were people who opened doors there were 2 models in the in the capitol that no one would know about outside of that area there were spaces where there are meetings among congressional leaders that are an unnamed an unmarked areas and yet these individuals knew exactly where they were that's a problem it's a security and safety issue but it also points to a much larger problem that it does i mean you know what all this reminds me of reminds me of the old as a child of the ninety's reminds me of the old rage against the machine song lyrics was you know those who work forces are often those who burn crosses you know when you go back to that and this reminds me of that and but the biggest question moving forward i think and you know you mentioned it to me earlier today is how do you then trust your capital security forces if the how for good

. >>> joining me now is house majority whip congressman jim clyburn, he is also the chair of the biden presidential inaugural committee. congressman, thank you so much for being with us today. all eyes are on georgia. the world is converging on georgia, not just the senate runoffs but that is where president trump placed a phone call over the weekend trying to convince the republican secretary of state to flip votes from the presidential election torques overturn the outcome of that election. now there are democrats in the house of representatives calling for an impeachment investigation into the president of the united states for that. where do you stand? >> well, thank you very much for having me. first of all, i do believe with only 14 or 15 days left in this presidency it would be a waste of our time here in the house to pursue impeachment. i suspect if all that i heard on this tape is to be investigated, there could very well be criminal charges brought by state and local governments down there in georgia, both state and of course atlanta, and i would hope that that would be pursu

>> your buddy jim clyburn was first. so you that can up with him. [laughter] >> i will certainly do that.

[laughter] >> i once walked into male lawmakers res room on accident -- >> what did you see in there? >> not only one -- what will you miss about trump's tweets? >> his tweets gave us this direct line into his brain. in a way that no, we've never had with any politician. it won't happen again. never say never. >> tell us something public probably doesn't know about you. >> i don't eat fruit. >> i don't eat fruit i've never ate a e strawberry in my life.

thank you, south carolina congressman jim clyburn, the whip. thank you for being with us. joining me now is my panel, ayesha mills, and republican and senior adviser to the lincoln project, susan, let me go to first. security measures for the inauguration day are tighter than ever, the national mall closed to spectator, airbnb cancelling all d.c. reservations, checking firearms in flights to d.c. or the d.c. area. is this really who we are as a country ahead of what is usually a celebration of democracy? >> it's who we are right now, rev. we have to be responsible. it has to show as a deterrent to prevent violence from coming to our capitol again, which brings me to the issue of while i believe that the vice president or president-elect biden and vice president-elect will be safe and i believe the event can be kept secure. i do wonder if this is the best visual we should be putting up as they get sworn in. of i think it will be a stark difference from what we're traditionally used to be seeing and is a visual that will be played up a lot. we've been seeing in the news how

your number three, jim clyburn, is 80. why haven't you brought young people into the leadership? we've-- >> pelosi: because we have. you perhaps don't know. >> stahl: why does a.o.c. complain that you have not been grooming younger people for leadership? >> pelosi: i don't know. you'll have to ask her, because we are. >> stahl: that was kind of sharp, kind of dismissing her. >> pelosi: i'm not dismissing her. i respect her. i think she's very effective as are other-- many other members in our caucus that the press doesn't pay attention to. but they are there and they are building support for what comes next. >> stahl: the speaker intends to keep the pressure on president trump to leave office as soon as possible. if he does not resign immediately, she has threatened to initiate impeachment proceedings. what if he pardons himself? >> pelosi: what if he pardons these people who are terrorists on the capitol? what if he does that? >> stahl: or pardons himself? >> pelosi: he can only pardon himself from federal offenses. he cannot pardon himself from state offenses and that's where h

>> in the words of our majority whip jim clyburn, we're teetering on the edge of democracy right now. this vote on impeachment is not necessarily as hard for me as the first one was. there is no question in my mind that we have to establish boundaries and that we have to make it clear that this kind of conduct from the commander-in-chief is absolutely unacceptable. these people were not only incited, but encouraged to do what they did on wednesday. we need to make a very firm statement that no future leader of the united states can do this kind of thing and get away with it. >> i have to let you go in a second. congressman, what about that? this idea that we're teetering on the edge of democracy. does it feel like we're in a state of that kind of fragility right now? >> we are a deeply polarized nation, and i never thought we'd have the president order violence. on a note of optimism, we had republican state legislators stand up to elect joe biden. we had republican secretary of state stand up to this president. we had republican senate majority leader, too late, but eventually stand

you try to remove him by impeachment, but as jim clyburn said in the interview with you, the emphasisn impeachment. impeaching president trump for the second time in his first term i think is a hiliation and a negative branding of his administration that would be ll deserved precisely because of what he did to trash e u.s. capitol, trash our american democracy, and show he has neither reverence for nor the office of the presidency. judy: david, how do you see this question ofhat should happen with the president? david: i do not support the 25th amendment. the problem is, he is not incapacitated. i would on the merits support iimpeachmeneding with -- if sending an invading force is not teachable, i do not know what is. if the senate was deliberating, it would be an active head, which might restrain him in his final days in office. it is highly unlikely the senate would convict. the fallback position could be censuring him under article 3 of the 15th amendme which prohibits someone who has incited violence from running for federal governmenit would -- reducesas roln intimidator and redu

it's different than when jim clyburn voted to overturn ohio, because that would change the outcome of the presidential election. let's be very clear on what we did. if it was based on policy and principle. i would stay the course. i always denies nounsed whatever individuals did here, in the summer, and last night. that's un-american. it's undemocratic. and anybody involved in that should be prosecuted. i have been very, very clear about that from day one. thank you. reporter: why didn't you say early that the election was free and fair? mr. mccarthy: go right ahead. reporter: are you concerned about fundraising this quarter now that will dozens of corporations are not going to support people who objected to the electoral college results? mr. mccarthy: not at all. reporter: follow up on that. do you think that members of congress who have any role in what happened on january 6 should be prosecuted? mr. mccarthy: any member participated in breaking the law, yes. i think anybody should be held to account. i do not know of any member who has done that. this is why i called for last week

. >>> i want to bring in jim clyburn now. congressman jim clyburn.he fact he is going to take the oath of office. thank you very much for joining us. a year ago this month, joe biden was doing dismally in iowa and new hampshire. you brought him around in south carolina. your thoughts on this morning? >> well, thank you very much for having me. i am very pleased to see this contrast develop and i think the country needs to experience this. the fact of the matter is joe biden started off this morning in a very quiet, a church service, and it was so meaningful to me that there in those pews were the leaders from both sides of the congress, and i think that is a bit symbolic of what you are going to see for the next several weeks. the leadership of both parties trying to get this country back on track towards its pursuit of perfection. we'll never be a perfect country. we know that, but we've got to always be in pursuit of that perfection, and it takes both parties and its leaders working together to get that done. you're not going to do it just by sayin

jim clyburn suggest hold the articles, not start a trial for fear a trial might overtake the first weeks or months of joe biden's incoming administration and potentially serve to derail his agenda or divide the country. what is your opinion? should if democrats impeach this president and the votes seem to be there to do it, should they send the articles to the senate right away? >> i failed to answer your question about speaking to republicans. i did speak to some republicans at the time we were being held and to say do you recognize many of your colleagues have gone too far. we have extraordinary minds, extraordinary men of history who understand where we have been and that is jim clyburn. he was a teacher of history. i am of the mind right now because of the urgency of the moment and the anger that i feel that we must put down an indelible marker. impeach the president and swiftly try him in the senate. that is my hope. i understand the wisdom of the other opportunity but this is such an extraordinary moment that we must meet it with extraordinary speed and do it well. we can have an i

you know, i watched as jim clyburn in south carolina turned his entire future around, which is still carolina, he took the lead. and he never looked back. and i think what i misjudged, and i said this to a couple of people, what i really misjudged during the campaign was the hunger in the country for a president you could ignore three days a week. >> jimmy: right. >> people were so desperate to get back to normal. and i think they looked at joe biden and said, we know the guy, we like the guy, things will get back to normal if we vote for him. and i think -- i mean, i think that had a lot to do with his recovery. >> jimmy: you mentioned clyburn. i heard a story today that george bush, who i know you have no fondness for even though many now look at him somewhat fondly after what we just experienced -- actually spoke, actually talked to him, thanked him for helping joe biden win the election. >> yeah, i saw that. because he thinks biden was the only one who could have beaten trump. i'm beginning to think that too. i didn't think that until the returns came in on election night and i s

it is different than what jim clyburn voted to overturn ohio, it would change the outcome of the presidential election. let's be clear on what we did. my was based on policy and principle, i would stay the course. i have always denounced what individuals did here, what they did in the summer and they did last night as un-american and undemocratic and anybody involved should be prosecuted. i have been clear about that from day one. >> why didn't you say the election was free and fair? >> are you concerned about fundraising this quarter but corporate taxes are not going to support people who he read -- elected -- objected to the electoral college result? >> do you think members of congress who had any role on what happened on january 6th should be prosecuted? >> any member who participated in breaking the law or rioting, anybody should be held accountable. i do not know of any member who has done that. this is why i called last week for a bipartisan commission. we should get to the bottom of it. there are so many questions that need to be answered, so many questions. i read in the paper that th

we will speak with jim clyburn who is on the call right now in a moment. if you ask yourself, 230, yes, that's more than in the house but it's still just one of them is a republican. although the conservative "wall street journal" leaning page is asking the president to resign. the president for the first time acknowledged that he will not be president on january 20th, and that he would focus on ensuring a ordinarily transition of power. although let's face it, his words are all but meaningless to many americans right now, especially when you come in in a scripted videotape format. we are well aware when it becomes unscripted the tune can change. it appears to have given some republicans justification to argue the best thing for the country is to let trump serve out the reminder of his term, hopefully quietly. what will happen in the next couple of days is an urgent question facing us and central to that question is what happens to the president in this immediate aftermath of the riot? joining me now is nbc news chief white house correspondent who is now t

. >>> and still ahead here, what house majority whip jim clyburn revealed about a conversation he had with former president george w. bush during the inauguration yesterday. we're back in just a moment. he yesterday. we're back in just a moment. advanced non-small cell lung cancer can change everything. but your first treatment could be a chemo-free combination of two immunotherapies that works differently. it could mean a chance to live longer. opdivo plus yervoy is for adults newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread and that tests positive for pd-l1 and does not have an abnormal egfr or alk gene. opdivo plus yervoy is the first and only fda-approved combination of two immunotherapies opdivo plus yervoy equals... a chance for more starry nights. more sparkly days. more big notes. more small treasures. more family dinners. more private desserts. opdivo and yervoy can cause your immune system to attack healthy parts of your body during and after treatment. these problems can be severe and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you have a cough; chest pain;

and jim clyburn is essentially suggesting the same thing. i think that's where we should go. >> clyburn is saying maybe we hold off and have a senate trial 100 days after so we can get the cabinet nominees confirmed, et cetera. but that's interesting, robert. barry, what do you think about a censure. my reading of it and i'm not the expert lawyer, you guys are, it's nothing more than a verbal wrist slap. it doesn't mean the president can't run again. so if you talk about actually what it means for a biden administration, it would not prevent a president trump from running again for 2024, for example. it does a lot less than an impeachment conviction. >> a censure would be an insult to the framers of the constitution. they invested congress with the power of impeachment to hold a president accountable. and in their mind, there could be no offense greater than attacking a frontal assault, our democracy. the peaceful transfer of powers at the core of our country. that the world looks up to us for being able to so have engrained in our system th

though, we are hearing this morning from some, including jim clyburn saying that maybe the house couldmpeachment itself but wait to send the senate those articles of impeachment giving biden some time to figure out his first 100 days in office. listen to clyburn this morning. >> we'll take the vote that we should take in the house and she will make the determination as when is the best time to get that vote and get the managers appointed and move the resolution over to the senate. it just so happens that if i didn't go over there for 100 days, it could -- the 100 days he needs to get his agenda off and running, and maybe we'll send the articles sometime after that. >> reporter: so there's a few reasons that they may want to do it in that way, alex. chief among them is the more democrats they have in the senate, the better their chances are and the less republicans that they have to pull over to their cause to actually move on these articles of impeachment after they're sent to the senate. on the other piece of this, it takes one more complication off the table. remember, the biden team

. >> house majority whip jim clyburn says a vote could come by mid week but suggested the chamber could wait before sending it over to the senate. >> this gives president-elect biden the hundred days he needs to get his agenda off and running. and maybe we'll send the articles sometime after that. >> pressure is also building on republican senators josh hawley and ted cruz over their role in contesting the electoral results. marriott and citibank among the first companies to suspend donations to those who objected. >> i have called for them to resign. >> aw lawmakers prepare to return to washington, the capitol's attending physician warns in a new memo obtained pi cbs news that they may have been exposed to someone who tested positive for coronavirus while they were holed up during the seernlg. nikole killion joins us from wilmington, delaware, covering president-elect biden. nikole, i understand there are some late developments involving the president-elect? >> well, this evening we learned that president-elect biden has spoken with the brother of capitol police officer brian sicknick

. >> you had jim clyburn today on cnn saying he feels this was organized. the office in which his name is emblazoned on the outside wasn't touched. the other officer which has no indication that it is his was ransacked. >> it's true. obviously, no one likes to think that the people who have been tasked with protecting us, with protecting the entire legislative branch of the federal government, and therefore democracy itself, cannot be trusted to do that. and in fact, some members of that force had been working with the same people seeking to overthrow the federal government. again, most importantly, the blame lies at the feet of president trump and his enablers in congress, coconspirators who helped to perpetuate a lie that this election was somehow stollen from the outgoing president. and that led to the -- that was the incitement of the violent insurrection that we saw last week. so i have also called on investigating the extent to which my colleagues in the house and in the senate were coordinating with these folks and were helping to insight the insurre

and i want to play a little something from jim clyburn for the senator. but unity is a concept in politics. and there's reasons for that. unity is not a concept in a murder investigation or a murder trial. we don't speak of unity. because it's irrelevant. either there was a murder and you punish it or -- and i'm a lawyer. if you find that the facts change, the evidence changes, the person you thought was involved wasn't, mitigation, let's deal with the facts. but at no point do you ever say, well, having gone through the murder evidence we do need to talk about unity between the accused murderer and others, whoever they may be. that doesn't compute. that doesn't scan. and so the categories we use in the days ahead i think matter a great deal. and i say that, again, in my role, my job, keeping an open mind if the evidence changes or certain individuals are accused and they are found by a jury that appears to be not guilty, so be it. i'm open to the rule of law. unlike obviously those individuals at the crime spree. but it's that taxonomy, senator, i'm thin

i can't find jim clyburn's office if my life depend on it.lways have to have staff remind me out to get there. but those who broke into the capitol knew right how to get to it. we have seen people with maps saying, go here, go here. i was one of the members, and i didn't think about it at the time, as someone giving someone tours, i was furious the fifth of january because there was a group of tourists in the building with maga hats and not wearing masks. and i went to the police and said, why are they here? they're not supposed to be here. and i was told, they're came in with a member, we're not allowed to say no to a member. and he told me, i had to go told them to wear a mask and you better believe i did. so we got a couple -- we keep focusing on the 6th, but covid is out there and alive, too. and me and may colleagues have now got it. so the speaker promises that me that they would address it, because i was so upset. we need more facts. we need an investigation. we need to understand what took place, how it happened, and we need to hold p

jim clyburn suggested speaker pelosi may delay sending impeachment articles to the senate for trial. >> let's give president-elect biden the 100 days he needs to get his agenda off and running. >> reporter: pat toomey is the second senator to call for the president to resign. >> i acknowledge that may not be likely, but i think that would be best. >> reporter: many republicans want president trump to ride out his term until president-elect joe biden's inauguration a week from wednesday. >> my personal view is the president touched the hot stove on wednesday and is unlikely to touch it again. >> reporter: the white house lowered flags to half staff after the death of a second u.s. capitol police officer and police honored fallen officer with a procession near the capitol. nancy chen, cbs news. >>> former california governor arnold schwarzenegger compared it to nazi assaults on jewish communities before world war ii. >> i grew up in austria and very aware of [ foreign word ] or the night of broken glass. it was a night of rampage against the jews carried out in 1938, the nazi equivalen

earlier this evening i spoke with house majority whip and democratic congressman from south carolina jim clyburnressman, thank you so much for joining us. you made an impassioned argument today not just for impeachment, but for preventing president trump from, in your words, seizing public office again. why is that so important? >> i believe it's important for people to realize that when you get in a position of trust, you've got to demonstrate not just for the people currently interacting with you, but for the future. that this country is not here for the benefit of any one person, that it's here for the benefit of all. and if you have been impeached for the second time within what, a year and a half, then we should say that that in and of itself is enough for you not to ever hold office again. >> i want to talk to you about the republicans who cry hypocrisy today, criticizing democrats for their support for the black lives matter protests as the highest-ranking black member of congress, how do you respond to that? and what was your reaction to the police response to the assault on the capitol?

we heard jim clyburn say that this vote of impeachment was important because it showed to the rest of world and americans that the democratic process was working and being restored after the events of last week. what practical impact does it have apart from the fact that he goes down in history the first american president to be impeached twice? what legal impact does it have on donald trump itself? >> without a conviction by the senate, which require a two thirds majority, unlike impeachment, without an actual conviction, there will not be any practical consequences. if there is a conviction post- trial, the senate could sentence donald trump to not being able to run for office again, including in 2024. katty: the chances that he would unlikely to run again given the events at the capitol and being the on the president to be impeached two times. does it have any legal impacts on any other legal problems that the president might face when he leaves office? >> impeachment, probably not. i think we still have a few days before the next big constitutional chute to drop, a self parted --

. >> congressman jim clyburn has suggested that nancy pelosi may wait until after joe biden's first 100ays in office to send the articles of impeachment to the senate. do you support that move? >> it's tricky. i don't think you can slow down the momentum, and make sure there are consequences and accountability to what just happened. that message must be sent as soon as possible. because even if biden is focused on his first 100-day agenda, i just believe this mob doesn't stop. trump doesn't stop. and that will actually require you to address it within the 100-day period. we need to go in eyes wide open. >>> coming up -- a preview of jeopardy with a new host. >>> also, a presidential honor for a controversial coach. a presidential honor for a controversial coach. with certain inflammatory conditions. because there are options. like an "unjection™". xeljanz. the first and only pill of its kind that treats moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, or moderate to severe ulcerative colitis when other medicines have not helped enough. xeljanz can lower your ability to figh
