joyce, for five minutes. mr. joyce: madam speaker. i rise to address the house and ask unanimous consent to revise and extend. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. joyce: madam speaker, across our country parents are facing a new and scary reality this summer as soccer camps and little league games get back under way, there is a new and growing crime crisis that is threatening our communities. just last week president biden made the extraordinarily false comment that crime is down. president biden is wrong. we are seeing a rise in crime throughout american cities. in philadelphia, there have been 315 homicides this year. an increase of over 35% from last year. this is unacceptable. the people living in our communities deserve to feel safe while families worry about the growing crime crisis, liberal leaders have turned their backs and failed to protect our neighborhoods. across the country mayors and community leaders have condemned the police officers and joined in protests calling to defund law enforcement. they have faile

good evening, joyce. this is what we saw.saw someone who had such disdain for the rule of law, contempt for democracy. we're not going to impeach him again, of course, but we should bring the witnesses in, and understand what vulnerabilities in government, and put in place laws, so in future leader, democrat or republican, can test us in this way again. >> congressman swalwell, i'm sure you have seen it now. it's an instant classic. here is jim jordan today. >> did you speak with president trump january 6th? >> yeah, i speak with him all the time. >> on january 6th, did you speak with him before, during or after the capitol was attacked? >> i have to go -- i spoke with him that day. after. i think after. i don't know if i spoke with him in the morning or not. i just don't know. i don't know that -- when those conversations happened. >> translation, hamina, hamina, hamina. congressman swalwell, you're reaction to that? >> i remember every second of that day, sadly, and there isn't a day that has gone by where i haven't thought

joyce, thank you for being with us.n i read your column, i was thinking to myself, the nation, many people in the nation, were celebrating the strength with which joe biden came out and shamed republicans for doing what they are trying to do and made it clear that this is anti-democratic and it is not in the interests of our history or our country to be doing what they are doing in statehouses across the country. but you pointed out that there was something that democrats can do now to fix this. representative clyburn has suggested it and that is carve out matters to do with voting rights from the filibuster. make them not subject to the filibuster, where you have to get ten extra votes in order to pass something. >> that really looks like the increasing option here. biden's speech was strong and forceful, and he's such a superlative statesman. he knows the senate so well, that i think he was very intentional when he chose his words. at one point, he said, we have the tools that we immediate to get this done, to pass th

joyce, always a pleasure.ral major doj headlines to talk about. let's start with the doj saying that the irs has to turn over trump's tax returns to a house committee. what is the legal significance of this? >> well, the legal significance of this is that congress's balance of power with the executive branch is being properly maintained. the statute that this happens under actually requires that the treasury department shall provide this sort of material to congress upon a request. there's a very low threshold here perhaps for treasury and the justice department to make sure that this is pursuant to a legitimate congressional inquiry, but congress has more than met this threshold and it is long past time for this sort of action to be taken here. this really restores the balance of power between the branches of government. >> in terms of time, joyce, how long is it going to take for congress to get these documents, and does it mean that they would be released to the public at some point officially? i mean there

joyce, for five minutes. mr. joyce: madam speaker, i rise to address the house and ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, so ordered. mr. joyce: madam speaker, our nation is facing a security crisis on our southern border. as a record number of migrants are apprehended on american soil, we have seen a staggering increase in the amount of fentanyl that's been confiscated, not only at ports of entry, but also in the desert. so far this year, there have been over a million illegal crossings along our southern border. right now, liberals in congress are attempting to obstruct the department of homeland security from working to keep americans safe. how many americans have to be poisoned by fentanyl before we stop the flow into our communities? in pennsylvania, over 5,000 people have lost their lives in drug overdoses last year. we have seen fentanyl is easy to get and it's fast to kill. we must put an end to the crisis and refuse any attempt to stop the depar

joyce vance, i want to read you a quote from susan. peter baker knows well. she writes, donald trump's kritdices have harbored a persistent fantasy, that there would be one definitive moment this he would be finally be to the accountable he deserves. each new trump crisis, and there were many, offered a hope to some unambiguous to trump. it never happened. susan describes perhaps our viewing audience tonight. what is the chance this event would lead to real consequences for mr. trump? >> i think we're in a tough spot to evaluate that. but i think susan makes a really important point. there will be an extraordinarily low ebb of confidence in the justice system, if there is no accountability for the president, who engaged in -- that left him from having any real consequences. he was never held accountable. he spent the last four years shielded by the presidency, and now that protection has slipped away, he becomes vulnerable. there are proceeders in georgia, including the call he made soliciting election fraud. we saw in the mueller report, we saw an effort to

always good to see you, professor joyce. let me start with just the overarching goal of the committee. what are some of the absolute critical things that you think that this committee has got to come away with in terms of what it learns, what it exposes, what it proves? whattar are the drop-dead must-dos for this committee? >> you know, this committee has a really difficult job ahead of it. the big question that they have to answer is how are the american people supposed to understand what happened on january 6th as we move forward? so they need to answer at least two big broad categories of questions. first, how did law enforcement miss what was going to happen on january 6th? what were the intelligence flaws like? were there communications failures reminiscent of 9/11? why was it that the capitol police were outmatched when the insurrectionists finally reached the capitol? that's one set of questions. and then there's another serious issue involving who. who was involved, who was responsible, who failed to act. obviously,

joyce: today, americans are making less money than they were one year ago with annualized real wages down nearly 4%. it's families, not politics, that are feeling the effect of president biden's failed economic policies. inflation very simply is taxation and it has increased every month since biden has taken office. while democrats in congress mocked concerns about rising inflation, we saw the effects that this crisis is having at the gas station and at the grocery store. now as experts warn that the effects of inflation may last longer than anticipated, president biden has suggested flooding our economy with even more wasteful spending, urging $100 bribes for individuals to get vaccinated, and spending billions of dollars for social programs will not fix our broken economy. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. mr. joyce: the american people know this is a failure and they know that the democrat policy is to blame. thank you and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from north carolina seek recognition? mr. butterfield: i ask

>> well, it is right to what joyce is talking about.omebody under the conservatorship in a law of the state in this case california, it strips every right that person has. the right to enter into a contract and like you would have to do to hire your own lawyer, and sets up a specific process about what happens when a conservator is removed and it puts all of this in the hands of the judge who has to make the decisions based on the evidence before him or her, and in most cases, this is somebody who can't really take care of themselves or is in failing health, but in this case, it is somebody who is clearly a healthy woman, but whose conservatorship began over mental health, and now it is showing how difficult it is to get out of all of this. one of the conservators in this has withdrawn saying that i did not want to act if it is against her wishes. her attorney who is still representing her now, and seeking to withdraw is citing the same thing. and even britney spears' mother has given a statement to the court saying that she should have

attorney joyce vance. she also happens to be one of the co-hosts of the podcast sisters-in-law. good evening and welcome to you all. and phillip, i would like to begin with you and your beat. this new virus surge. let's take political consequences, the disappointment aspect of it out of the conversation and dwell on public health. i am guessing that biden west wing is about to address this with some urgency. >> certainly. and we've seen the biden administration and the health officials throughout the government speak with increasing urgency in recent weeks about what the cdc is calling the pandemic of the unvaccinated. the fact that so many americans, tens of millions of americans, many of them in red, republican leaning states won't be vaccinated in part because of what is spreading on sxoem conservative media. this is a growing urgent concern for leaders in washington. they feel the infection rates and further complications from california to the east coast could be continuing to rise as people resist the vaccines. so i think we'll see in the coming days, the president as well

so, joyce, what do you make, first, of the request and what might it mean for matt gaetz?this is a standard request that you'll see from the government and a defendant jointly when cooperation is ongoing and it can mean one of two things, chris, it can mean that the cooperation is productive and that they're making cases on other suspects but they need a little bit more time. on other occasions, though, it can mean that while there's a good faith effort to cooperate being made by someone in greenberg's shoes that it hasn't yet been productive. the government is giving the defendant a little bit more time to see if he can do something that will help him get credit for sentencing. we don't know which of those two scenarios is at play here. it seems a little bit more likely since this is characterized as ongoing meetings that investigators and prosecutors simply need more time to debrief greenberg and make sure they get all of the information that he's privy too. this probably means that estimates that gaetz would be indicted in july were a little bit too optimistic and it ma

joyce vance, former u.s. attorney for the northern district of alabama, professor at the university of alabama school of law. joyce, great to see you here on a friday night. thank you so much for being here. >> good to be with you, rachel. >> i have gotten very shy about the word "unprecedented" but i was surprised when we started poking around and realized that this might be the largest bond ever put up in a u.s. criminal case ever. what do you make of the size of that bond and the fact that barrack, in fact, was released? >> i was surprised that barrack was released. as a prosecutor i think i would have gone to the mat to try to keep him in custody just because he is such a flight risk, and that's one of the two bases federal prosecutors have for keeping a defendant in custody until trial, either that they're a flight risk on a danger to the community. barrack is pretty much the poster child for a flight risk, dual citizenship, access to a lot of money and private travel. so he's really someone that it is d

congresswoman joyce beatty of ohio, chair of the black caucus.tarted marching through the lobby, the atrium of the senate office building, singing songs. you might recognize on the right there, in the black voters matter voter, latosha brown who has been a guest on our show a number of times. turns out she has amazing pipes, just a beautiful voice. they made their way to the center of the building. they kept singing. clapped. they asked the senate to act to protect voting rights. capitol police officers started warning them over a megaphone that they were all about to be arrested if they didn't stop. as you can tell, their voices droned them out. that's right about the time the singing turned into chanting. you can hear them saying, end the filibuster. end the filibuster. there's all those police officers waiting in the wings. you know what's coming. congresswoman beatty started a chant of "pass the for the people act. pass the for the people act." and you see that police officer off to the side readying the zip ties. that is when the arrests sta

joyce beatty got arrested the other day, but the argument is we need a road forward.ld not fall into the joe manchin trap of believing that there are ten magical friends of republicans who are going to step forward to provide 60 votes in order to pass some form of voting rights. we know that's not going to happen, so the alternative is what mechanism, what carve out or exception to the filibuster or reform, if he prefers that term, is he going to be able to convey to his friend joe manchin to pass, because without it we're not going to get voting rights. and i think what we've seen in the latest supreme court ruling, from arizona and what we've seen in the audits and what we've seen from the -- i use audits loosely. and seen in the texas legislation making its way down the pike is that we need federal legislation. we're not going to litigate our way out of this. unfortunately we're not going to be able to persuade republicans to defend democracy. so what and how are we going to maneuver past the filibuster in order to get voting rights? and that i think is going to be

host: joyce out of new jersey. anthony out of new york is next. caller: thank you for the opportunity. my query is for the guest and the moderator, perhaps you can follow up on my concerns. there was an at&t executive who had standing lawsuit with about 500 americans who had been unconstitutionally expired upon by big tech, and barack obama, when he came into office, his first signing statement was to dismiss that lawsuit, by disallowing the american citizen to have redress against what is unconstitutional. the patriot acts one and two need to be rescinded, if not reviewed, admonished and i would ask that you perhaps have cara frederick from the heritage foundation to speak on this topic. the woman is brilliant, and she knows so much about what is going on. i do believe that this is orwellian beyond what george will could have imagined, and i think america needs to fight back against big tech by either getting rid of the social counts -- social accounts, whatever it takes, but we are in deep trouble. like i said, mark klein, at&t executive, he had

i thank you and your co-airchg -- co-anchor and i thank joyce beatty. i stand before you tonight with a sense of urgency because the most fundamental and sacred right we have as americans is under attack. across this country, state lawmakers have interviewed at least 389 restrictive bills in 48 states just this year. and 14 states have enacted more restrictive voting laws. even the highest court in the land is chipping away at this fundamental right. we know that those who would engage in suppression, subversion and intimidation are not resting, but neat they are is the congressional plaque caucus. tonight we are standing up and speaking out because we know that just as message is our power, so, too, is our vote. i'm going to say it again. our vote is our power. we are here to protect and defend that right. because the vote is tied to everything. the vote is tied tore criminal justice reform and health care, the vote is tied to the minimum wage increase and access to affordable child care and tied to the preservation of our democracy and tied to our ver

it seems like they concluded it would be. >> joyce and dan, thank you. >>> now as promised and advertisement on the straight line. we turn to someone who's been dealing with weisselberg for a long time >> the office with me was allen weisselberg. >> the he made the decision. allen weisselberg on the check or mr. weisselberg for short. >> michael cohen there testified about weisselberg in 2019. he's been a reasons there several times. the investigation remains ongoing and michael cohen joins me now. michael. you started this and your reaction to today's indictment. the organization that you used to work for and the cfo you used to work so closely with. >> i am not surprised of the ziemt, thest a little benefit what of us looking for or hoping for in a sweeping set of indictment meaning allen weisselberg. he's not the keystone to this entire indictment. there will be more as far as i am concerned. i know that i had gone in and i have spoken on more than a dozen occasions to the district attorney and there are a multitude of issues that are far more ranging from allen weisselberg is not paying
