call from one of the top republicans in the house on homeland security and national security, michael mccallr colleague, jake tapper saying, please, former president trump go out there and say this day, march 4th is not a day that i will be inaugurated. please understand that you shouldn't even think about any kind of attack as law enforcement is warning about today. instead he put out a statement, you know, angry at "the wall street journal" because they wrote something about georgia and the election results and blaming the former president for the two losses for the republicans there and doubled down on the big lie as part of that. so, yeah. you don't necessarily have to have the text messages that end was talking about over the phone calls to understand that there's real communication in the eyes of so many of these insurrectionists. >> yeah. dana, you're absolutely right. in that statement that trump put out today of all days when there's so much heightened concern about a possible additional attack on the capitol, he's once again speaking about a, quote, rigged election. he's reigniting

this is congressman michael mccall of texas. people may not like his view s, but he says the president owes this country something big. >> the president needs to tell them to stand down. this threat is credible. it's real. it's a right wing militia group. >> that is congressman mccaul. g gohmert said, that's what we're going to be determining. if people in positions of authority keep saying these theories, everybody will keep believing it. >> that's exactly right. the former vice president was playing footsie with people who still perpetuate the big lie. somebody like william gohmert is in it. he is someone who has stoked the conspiracy theories. but what he said about the former president should be played over and over and taken to him in mar-a-lago, because it matters. you heard what donie played for you from that qanon member saying they take their cues from the former president. all he has to do is come out and say, everybody, calm down. this is not what i want. this is not what we want as americans. the fact he doesn't do i

and michael mccall, in our next hour to talk more about this, but first let's go to our corresponding kc steagall live on the border in eagle pass, texas where you've spent so muc time over the lead pastor years and he's got the latest forest. >> it's really a 1-2 punch if you think about it. the first punch is here in the field. the border patrol agents and th resources themselves stretched very thin and overwhelmed. than then the second knockout comes later when hhs tries to find bed space for all of the unaccompanied minors coming int the country. space is tight in the race to create more continues. look at this video of the very first buses, these are full of migrant teens arriving late yesterday at the san antonio convention center which fema ha helped convert into an emergenc intake site for at least 2400 kids. dallas in san diego also using their convention centers for th same purpose. in the meantime, some folks who've talk to who live and wor here along the border, they say that crime is frankly just out of control. >> they're getting people going through their backyards, jum

it's something that texas congressman michael mccall said was likely.come monday. there was a visit by some members of the biden administration over the weekend but we have not heard any details about it and neither has president biden. he's not been briefed on what his delegation discovered and their findings. more on that as we get it. also breaking news at this hour. a sixth woman is now reportedly accusing new york governor andrew cuomo of sexual harassment. state lawmakers demand information about his book deal because of what they call suspicious timings and connections to the alterations made to the nursing home numbers around that same time. bryan llenas is tracking both of those angles for us from new york. welcome back. good to see you. what's up? >> martha, good afternoon. let's start off with the book deal t "new york times" and wall street journal questioned that the cuomo administration's top aide altered the numbers on the covid deaths in the state to show the death toll was a lot lower than it was in actuality. four days after that july

we saw from michael mccall telling jake tapper over the weekend that it's on the president to try to put down the expectation among his people and put down this threat. he's not doing that. but one thing that members of congress can understand more acutely now than they ever have is the idea that there's a threat against them. so the house has gone out of session. the senate remains in session. but after multiple people for multiple reasons underreacted to the threat before january 6th and the american democracy got third-degree burns and five people lost their lives that day, they are not going to underreact this time, and that's why you have got this heightened level of security threat. we'll see whether any actual offensive or militia violence materializes, but people aren't take anything chances. >> you use the word underreact. one thing we learned in much more detail yesterday was that the d.c. national guard underreacted because they were told to underreact, at least in the days before. a memo literally telling them, we're changing the rules for how you respond to a mob that th

among them was gop congressman michael mccall of texas. here's what he told nbc news in an interview at the border wall. >> they created a humanitarian crisis at this border that you have seen now. the reason why they are coming is he says word do matter. they do. the message is coming back that, hey, we have got a new president, come on in, we are open to business to the traffickers. and guess what, they are right here. i predict a million people trying to get into this country by summertime. >> the biden administration only two months into office is refusing to accept the blame for all of this. officials argue they are picking up the pieces from former president trump's policies. here's how the homeland security security secretary put it this morning on meet the press. >> please remember something, that president trump dismantled the orderly, humane, and efficient way of allowing children to make their claims under made to law in their home countries. he dismantled the central american minors program. we are rebuilding those orderly and

michael mcfaulsback. whenever i listen to marie yovanovitch. i have to start with you ambassador mccallsian disinformation campaign run by trump and his allies. >> you're right. i'm glad you remembered her because she was just trying to serve america's national interest in a nonpartisan way and she was thrown under the bus by her own trump administration. but elections have consequences we have a new leader, that's good for ambassador yovanovitch and the american people. i'm pleased they're publishing this information in the way they are, because you and i have talked about these things, we've talked about these things for years. but i think it's really important for the american people to understand the incredible, multifacetted campaign that vladimir putin launched to try to help mr. trump so we don't fall down this rabbit hole again. >> pete strzok, you were at the fbi when the fbi and andrew mccabe asked questions and mike and his colleagues reported on this, broke the story in "the new york times" that there were credible questions whether donald trump was wittingly or unwittingly
