we bring in john jordan, thanks for joining me john. i have to tell you, i've been watching what's been going on and kind of shaking my head throughout everything going there so much out there. there's so many towards even our men on the street showed some people saying that ukraine is an ally to america. that there's threatening against george in the baltic states, all this kind of did different information. nobody's consistent. but i have to ask you, is the u. s. a more on high alert than ukraine or any of the other countries in the region. and why is that? was you put it in a mixed bag ukraine right now for the moment, at least is trying to urge a spirit of calm on everybody's part in trying to make it look, make everyone kind of bring the temperature down. so people don't realize, don't think that there's an eminent invasion or imminent reason to panic on the russian side of one of my go to shows is this in the daily, which is the weekly news. it's probably one of russia's most watched programs for news and of late they have been hy

to lincoln in the republican national convention and soon to join lincoln's cabinet and this man john jordan crittenden of kentucky. crittenden had been a member of the constitutional union party. so this was a moment made for him, right? he was all about this kind of compromise. he had followed after henry clay the great compromiser from kentucky and he was one of the longest serving politicians in washington at this time. he was very much dedicated to the idea that there ought to be some sort of compromise to prevent civil war. and so he provides one of the most promising solutions to the situation a proposal that came to be known as the crittenden compromise. so i've listed all the measures here and it was a detailed plan, but the most important part of it. was this one on top here the extension of the missouri compromise line to the pacific ocean? so this is a compromise that suggests that the missouri compromise the sacred compromise that so many believe was essential to the constitution should be reimplemented right re-implemented so that there can be this balance between north and sou

. >> it is one of those that some days he's more jim jordan than john mccain.head scratching. somebody else you have worked with a long time is mitch mcconnell and there's a couple of statements he's made recently that makes me think he will never say he regrets what he didn't do last year, but that he is perhaps, you know, maybe some day he will. the january 6 committee is something he was supposedly against, worried it was going to be politicized and now he's very intrigued to see what they are finding. do you think he wishes there was a do over on the impeachment a year ago? >> i wouldn't go that far. perhaps he's having second thoughts about personally opposing the creation of a bipartisan commission. i was with him in the so-called secret place, the secure place where the leaders were taken on january 6. i watched him standing with nancy and chuck and reaching out to leaders in government to try to get control of the building again and be able to return to it. i could feel the intensity of his feeling because he has given his life to the senate, he's been

john. hall reporting from poland. soldiers in jordan say they've killed 27 drug smugglers trying to sneak across the border from syria. and army spokesman says the traffickers use heavy snow covers who carry large amounts of illegal drugs. the military's rules of engagement have recently been tightened to combat an increase in drug smuggling. rare heavy snowfall has blanketed parts of jerusalem. it's shut down roads and schools and grounded flights in the region. some are making the most out of the winter flurry harry false. it has more, a winter snowfall isn't unknown injurious one by any means, but on this scale it is very read. it hasn't been anything like this for the last 10 years in 2012, it was about 60 centimeters that fell overnight, wednesday into thursday. it was about 20 centimeters, the effect of the storm lps, which has been blanketing athens and its danville in recent days, making its way south here. now this is a rare experience and so this isn't a city that's particularly well equipped to dealing with such heavy snowfall. people came out as it came down overnight and enjoyed the

get these facts from jordan but we're also trying to set up precedents for how we deal with all the other people who will refuse inevitably to cooperate. >> that's exactly right, john. how the committee decides to handle the case of jim jordan and scott perry will essentially serve as a roadmap for the rest of the gop lawmakers that were in touch with the white house, the willard hotel, outside legal operation, and various other components that led up to or occurred on the january 6th insurrection. i spoke with several committee sources, trying to map out and understand some of these legal arguments they're having themselves right now as they figure out the best way forward to get recalcitrant sitting lawmakers like jim jordan to comply with the committee and answer those questions. and the subpoena question is what we've seen the committee previously resort to when it comes to recalcitrant witnesses. but that's not the only thing on the table for these discussions this time around. that is because of some of these thornier legal questions and these precedents, political precedents that the committee might want to avoid in the case that democrats lose the majority

committee, you have to remember it was jim jordan and the freedom caucus back in 2015 that prevented kevin mccarthy from ascending to the speaker role after john announceann announced his resignation. i think kevin mccarthy is doing everything to make sure that hard right flank doesn't undermine him again. also donald trump is out there who doesn't want him to cooperate and can also cause problems for him to become the next speaker. there can't be daylight between kevin mccarthy and jim jordan and kevin mccarthy and donald trump on this issue. simple as that. >> in this letter to mccarthy the committee brings up conversations mccarthy may have had with trump about impeachment, resigning or even removal onto the 25th amendment. that's as serious as it gets really. it suggests that mccarthy believed trump was culpable for what happened but does it also speak to his state of mind, his mental fitness. >> exactly. the number one issue that kevin mccarthy can speak to is to president trump's state of mind. kevin mccarthy had really revealing conversations with donald trump, and that's what the committee needs to get at here, and i think the number o

jordan, the last a bidding war on an oak tree that went for over $100000.00. history does not recommend a widening gulf between the haves and have nots. john is stuff like this, tempting societal trouble. you know, i said, i think it, i'm not sure about tempting suicidal travel, but let's put it this way. social media has definitely magnified ah ostentatious behavior on the part of the wealthy and brought that full frontal in front of you know, people who are in many cases that are at risk because they have been either furloughed or laid off during the cobit period. ah, or otherwise have challenges that do not enable them to participate in this a flurry of wealth creation, however, bubble related, it may be at the upper end of the pyramid. so when this arises, frankly, there's always social discontent as always, social unrest. it's a reason why we see so much pressure from the liberal wing of the democratic party on the president to put through social reforms and new programs of will redistribute wealth. ah, but at the same time, ah, history teaches us that in a u. s. capitalist system, it's very difficult to actually put a, put a, get a g

when you think about this, jordan and i was so grateful and interviewed him in 2018, when it first came upon the idea. and another president who had a lot of friends was john f. kennedy and i was able to talk to his daughter caroline it, and i went to law school with her head i said, who is your dad's first printed and she gave me what i never would've thought and is one of the great prizes of this whole journey. and friendships were kind of obvious with me and i grow with the shadowy week printed shadowy dapper parts for my childhood. and i did not want to do the obvious thing, i remember wanted to find somebody who provided a different dimension it to his life. and chose a distant cousin and a complete surprise to me rated frankel pearson the only example of a friend was more famous than the president and in some total delight was the friendships between at thomas jefferson and james madison avenue they had a close collaboration it together but i had no idea that there friendship was over 50 years and that was just a pr thing to write about. >> it was some of the most influential friends in policy. >> i think the most important friendship in terms of pol

jordan, three people they very much want to speak with. >> all right. jessica dean, thank you very much. a lot to discuss now. cnn white house correspondent john harwood is here and our chief legal analyst mr. jeffrey toobin as well. hello and thanks for joining. john, you heard in jessica's piece that kevin mccarthy was asked in may if he would be willing to testify about his conversation with trump on january 6th. mccarthy said sure. well, tonight he is saying he will not cooperate. is there any surprise -- is that surprising to you considering mccarthy previously went down to mar-a-lago to kiss the ring? >> it's not surprising at all. look, let's step back and remember who we're dealing with. kevin mccarthy is the weakest congressional leader of either party in decades. he is not rooted in principles or values or the truth. we all remember when he went on fox news and boasted about how the benghazi inquiries, which were supposed to be about national security, had tarnished hillary clinton's poll ratings. he pushed liz cheney out of leadership for telling the truth about the 2020 election. on january 6th when the insurrection was going on he

john you're recognized for five minutes. >> chairman nadler, ranking member jordan, members of the committee, thank you for inviting me to appear today. it is my honor and privilege to be before you. and my few minutes, i'd like to discuss how arbitration can provide an alternative method of resolving disputes by which parties can avoid some of the shortcomings present in our's civil justice system, and why removing it as an option for dispute resolution is not in the best interest of those subjected to sexual harassment and assault. studies show that arbitration provides a faster and less expensive way for employees and consumers to resolve their claims against their employers and other companies. to obtain greater relief on average then they receive through delegation in court. arbitration tends to be more flexible. both in terms of the banality and scheduling of the proceedings. making it easier for clients to participate. it involves less burdensome discovery, and left adherence to traditional rules that may make litigation in court inaccessible and overly intimidating. they are organiza

john. >> he does cooperate. i was going to say i would be very surprised if mccarthy cooperates at any level, especially given the fact that jim jordan has made very clear -- jim jordan, of course, is the -- the hardline trump ally from ohio -- jordan has made clear he is not gonna cooperate. now, if mccarthy was to say that he will cooperate, at any level, and create daylight between himself and jordan, that would be dually noted by one donald j. trump of palm beach, florida. and i think that would create real challenges for mccarthy if he was to be in line for the speakership this time next year because his big impediment to being speaker could be donald trump and jim jordan. so, i think for that reason, alone, mccarthy's unlikely to cooperate. >> so -- so, shan, one other point here. there is -- there is a question about obviously mccarthy voted, right, to not certify the election. and that vote did not happen until after the insurrection, right? because the insurrection paused it. right? didn't happen until that night. so the committee says they want to know whether trump's team talked to mccarthy between the insurrection and the
