but john dean is a movie star. john dean was the big draw. they didn't want to lose john dean. it was front page news and they go in the orange county register that shepherd was was disinvited. that's why this complaint of attorney misconduct is so delicious. i don't think they can get rid of me. and they're they're dilemma. this is straight. you know, i analyze this stuff. i stay awake all night. their best way out is to claim a technicality. too long ago. most of the people are dead. we these aren't really our memos because if they hear me out. they're going to be in tough tough shape. i have dozens and dozens of memos and they're all on that website. i'm not playing hide the ball. okay. the real watergate victims have all passed away. there was some thought on an earlier book that their heirs could come in and challenge their convictions, but it never came to fruition, but this is different. this is challenging misconduct by the lawyers themselves. so we'll see we have time for one last question here. make it a good one. i've always been interested in the role of john dean.

john dean. good evening to you. the attorney general merrick garland insisting today the justice department is committed to holding those involved in the january 6th insurrection accountable. >> the actions we have taken thus far will not be our last. the justice department remains committed to holding all january 6th perpetrators at any level accountable under law. whether they were present that day or were otherwise criminally responsible for the assault on our democracy. we will follow the facts wherever they lead. >> so critics on the left have been demanding more action from the doj. should they feel reassured tonight? >> i think they should. i actually tweeted that very fact shortly after the address. in fact, i learn in your first segment that the department of justice put that paragraph out in their press release before the speech, so they were obviously sending the signal. and it was received. i didn't have an advanced press copy. that paragraph or that statement just jumped out at me because i don't think

we know with watergate they had that famous john dean moment that captivated a nation.by telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency, and if the cancer was not removed, the president himself would be killed by it. >> so really quickly, do you see any potential john deans in tr trump's orbit? >> i think there's lots of possibilities. donald trump had contact with a number of people prior to january 6th and during the insurrection. and the question is, when you got 300 or 400 witnesses, somebody had to have overheard something. something had to see something. there's going to be documents that were created during that period of time. so we don't know if there's going to be that john dean moment, but it could very well happen, and certainly the committee's investigation has put across a very wide net. and so the question is, is somebody going to really, you know, come forward? that can be in vice president pence's camp, somebody who was knowledgeable about what donald trump was telling vice president pence. >> nick, thank you so much for joining

john dean, it's good to see you.i would love to hear your reaction to this notion that inviting someone to testify about what they knew and experienced that day and who they spoke to, that that somehow is punitive, on a voluntary basis. what do you say? >> i disagree with the portrait that stan is trying to paint of this committee. i think they're being very careful, to make it very clear they have a legislative intent. they have been charged with finding out what happened on january 6th. they're looking at every aspect of it. they're trying to understand the larger picture. and that is the focus of this committee and not to prosecute anybody. it's to elicit information. now, can you portray it that way? of course, by cherry picking, you can. but this has been before two courts already, and they've both found this committee is totally legitimate and has standing to proceed as it is. so that issue i think is moot at this point. >> now, he did talk about the speech and debate privilege, and i want you to weigh in on th

i want to discuss now with andrew mccabe, former fbi deputy director, john dean, former nixon white househn, i'm going to start with you. the committee says they have first-hand testimony that she went in at least twice to ask her father to stop the violence. and the letter also says this and i quote, apparently certain white house staff believe that a live unscripted press appearance by the president in the midst of the capitol hill violence could have made the situation worse. now, the idea that having the president speak could make things worse, how much of that is this figuring out his state of mind on that day? >> well, clearly this is an effort to get to his state of mind. and nobody knows that better than his daughter who apparently was sent on multiple missions to try to persuade him to do what was right, when everything was falling apart around the city. so they're going right at the heart of the issue here. and that is what was his intention shown by both his action and reactions to what his daughter was saying. so this is important testimony if they can get it. >> they also say

jamie, stick with me because i want to bring in someone to help us, nixon white house counsel john dean. good evening to you. welcome to the program. this comes as we're learning the committee also subpoenaed rudy giuliani and other top advisers to the former president. we're getting pretty close to the top of the food chain here. does this mean that the committee is nearing the end of its investigation or can we tell at this point? >> i don't think we can draw that out of these latest subpoenas but they're certainly focusing on mr. trump. these are the people who surround him and talk to him. but the subpoenas that were all almost identical or the letters explaining them, they're looking for people. they want to understand why these people were promoting what was clearly a false lie, the big lie. that runs through the thread as all those letters are the same, and while some of these people are lawyers, this is outside their legal responsibilities. so i think they have a pretty good case to actually force them to testify. >> you do? because do you expect these four people will actually

john dean, i'm starting with you. and i want to get straight to this promise from the former president that pardons could come for the january 6 insurrectionists. hear what he said. >> if i run and if i win, we will treat those people from january 6th fairly. we will treat them fairly. and if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly. >> pardons for those who attacked the capitol on january 6, what do you hear there. >> well it is a little fuzzy, the pardon itself is an act of grace. this doesn't sound like an act of grace. it sounds like an act of excusing those who support him and went to violence and that could well start getting into the area of abusing the pardon power and abusing, obstructing justice by doing so. the pardon power is extremely broad. one of the really unreviewable acts by a president. but if he does it with another purpose, for example if he did it for a bribe, that would then be an illegal act. if he does it to obstruct justice, that would be an il

what helped break watergate open was a john dean testimony, someone from the inside. but if they don't have that this time, an insider who is going to give public, dramatic testimony, they're going to have to rely on facts, on documents. we unearthed as many as we could in our book "peril" like the john eastman memo. what will be important for the committee is to find more documentation of the coordinated pressure campaign, to show paper, to give people who are skeptical of the committee and the fact that this was an insurrection real evidence of that pressure campaign. that's how text messages come into part of the equation in addition to phone calls and other memos that might be out there. >> bob, former white house press secretary stephanie grisham, who was remarkably silent when she was press secretary, she now met with the january 6th committee tonight. how helpful do you think she could be on this investigation based on what you know from your reporting? >> well, she could be very significant. again, i'm sorry to go back almost 50 years to watergate, but as my c

and joining us is john dean. john, thanks for being with us. thankfully this plan was never rolled into motion. but just the fact that it was being discussed reportedly is the stuff of banana republics. >> it certainly is. my immediate reaction in reading it when it was released was this looks like the mandy w handiwo mike flynn and sydney powell, but it doesn't follow any government knowledgeable lawyer had their hands on drafting this because it is so out of the typical form of executive orders. >> yeah, and what does it say about the scope of these reported plans. and what do you think it says about how the justice department needs to approach the people at the top who were pushing these measures? i mean, i suppose it underlines the importance of getting these documents into the hands of investigators. not just with the committee but at the justice department. >> the timing suggests this was a part of the tranche, first tranche from the national archives that either came from that or somebody who was aware of what was in that decided to leak

repayment, saying the country can't afford them. monica inaccurate as more now from one of ours here john dean is present alberto fit man. this presented the agreement with the i m f as a life saver in yellow from a friend whom we had a noose around our neck without the agreement, we had no horizon, no future fernandez, had inherited from his predecessor modi. so maggie, a $44500000000.00 debt with the i m f. one that argentina could not repay, especially while facing of recession, spiraling inflation and coven 19 argentines took to the streets during the pandemic to show they weren't willing to make more sacrifices to pay their creditors. ah, the government's only option was to negotiate a new agreement with the i m f that would be politically acceptable in with us. he bowed and the body of may says, we have endured months of very harsh negotiations to undo the harm inflicted on argentina. economy minister marchin grossman explained that the agreement would buy argentina more time to pay the debt without forcing it to make drastic public spending cuts the government, he said, would continue t

i thought that speech was, it's being called extremely dangerous by john dean.very helpful. he spelled his out priorities. it would be to give these folks pardons. just to remind people, these are who donald trump sides with over the police. 140 police officers, many more were attacked but 140, at least, were injured by this mob. this is what he's talking about would be one of his priorities. dana, i know you brought this up on the show and rational republicans are appalled by this, as you heard from governor of new hampshire. here is his response to you. >> they have to be lheld accountable. everybody needs to be held fairly accountable. >> this shouldn't be pardoned? >> of course not. oh, my goodness no. >> he couldn't have been more clear. what are republicans going to do now they know that's one of his top priorities? >> they're not happy. the dpgovernor has been more willing than other republican, particularly here in washington, to be openly critical of the former president. his close friend and ally over the past few years, lindsey graham was also critica

. >> john dean called authoritarian followers. it's a thing about republicans in the modern era. not true about democrats. democrats like their presidents. they don't worship them. that's the difference. they're willing to buck them. look what they're doing inside to the party to biden. it a weird authoritarian worship on the republican side. it's weird and not good for democracy. thank you-all very much. >>> breaking news this evening, the supreme court delivered a major blow to trump in the january 6th investigation. we'll give you details next. don't move. vestigation. we'll give you details next. don't move this is the sound of nature breathing. and this is the sound of better breathing. fasenra is a different kind of asthma medication. it's not a steroid or inhaler. fasenra is an add-on treatment for asthma driven by eosinophils. it's one maintenance dose every 8 weeks. it helps prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing, and lower use of oral steroids. nearly 7 out of 10 adults with asthma may have elevated eosinophils. fasenra is designed to target and remove them. fasenra

john: former clerk risa goluboff, dean of the university of virginia law school, says part of his legacyhis humanity. >> one time i brought my little children, my nieces, my brother, my sister-in-law to meet him and to go on a tour of the court. and my son at the time was about four or five years old, and he immediately climbed under justice breyer's coffee table, which is not what you want to happen when you bring your family to the chambers. and justice breyer just sat down on his couch, and for some reason had a children's book sitting on his coffee table, and he opened it up and he just started reading it. and my son crawls back out from under the coffee table and sits up on the couch, and my niece sits there too, and they both were enthralled by him. he was going to meet my son where he was. john: a graduate of stanford and oxford universities and harvard law school, where he was an editor on the law review, breyer was chief counsel on the senate judiciary committee in 1980 when president jimmy carter named him to the federal appeals court. >> to be the 107th justice -- john: in 199
