i never forgot it, mike pence said to al gore. you do not know how much that means, al gore said, coming from you. guest: it is terrific. thank you for sharing that with me. it speaks to a real truth about congress, which is that you do have these moments where members all the time rise above naked partisan self-interest and just play by the rules or do the right thing and when they do that you hope it rubs off on some other members. and that everybody can lift their game. there is nothing wrong with competing fiercely and disagreeing and debating, but the rules are the rules. for this representative government scheme to work, we all have to be willing to play by the rules. host: about 20 minutes left with kevin kosar this morning. this is ray in syracuse, republican. caller: a previous caller brought up what he thought the solution should be part of the solution on this january 6 issue , that the democrats should present the facts in front of congress and my first thought is they will never do that. the reason is because that wou

and mike pence did. and i think that's a reminder of something that is going to be really important for all of us to keep in mind and to hope for and work for as much as we can over the next four years, which is it's not that institutions guard democracy, it's that the people in charge of those institutions are the ones who guard democracy. it's not the senate. it's senators. it's not the courts. it's judges of particular courts. and so, as so many of us head into a 48-month period here where the result was not what we had hoped for, i think it's important to bear in mind that it worked today, but the weight of it working today was on a party of which i'm not a member. i'm not a democrat. but the democratic party did not try to undo an election in using violent means, and so it's not as reassuring as it could be. but it's a step in the right direction. >> so can we talk about not just having principles but being willing to demonstrate principles. you mentioned mike pence. al gore, much closer election. 3

, when mike pence. there he is. there he is talking to al gore. i'm sorry. oh, and dan quayle. i mean, that's the vice presidents, vice presidents club, three of them together. we learned that mike pence, on that fateful day, that horrible day, said he was going. he decided to buck donald trump and not overturn the will of the people, in part because he remembered being a young member of congress. hunter biden and seeing al gore doing it. and there's hunter biden, a new grandfather. his grandson was born yesterday in l.a. amid all of the fires going on there. there you see, marilyn quayle, the former second lady, in addition to dan quayle, at moments like this, number one, you see all the dignitaries paying due respect to former president carter. >> you try to trace arcs of history, like what is happening today that you can trace back to those days, and you can look in our american politics, you can certainly look in the middle east and find the arc of history that things that began or at least gained f

mike pence, mike pence. mike pence. >> there was once a creature in the forest named mike pence.-- until they tried to hang him. >> it is stunning. >> it is stunning. it is. how quickly people fell from -- for the lie. i look at that elise stafanik live and i'm thinking to myself, you are such a submissive. you are so desperate to be in the room, to be in the game. you will capitulate and you will change your view, you know? there's so many republicans like that. the other aspect that i thought was fascinating and raised a question for me was you look at it from the political side and with john bolton and what he wrote. it also applies to the judicial side, to the same idea of loyalty and fealty. we watched three supreme court nominees go before hearings and tell us and lie to us about what they would and would not do, right? they have now shown that fealty, that divisiveness, by giving trump all of the power you will ever need, more power than any president in the country's history has ever had. now, they are vested in him because all he has to do, nicole, is to think about some

hang mike pence. hang mike pence. hang mike pence. >> this is january 6th. from that date forward, and pretending that this is no longer what today means is to put it lightly an insult to every cop that was injured that day, every terrified congressional staffer and member, every capitol worker who had to clean up the feces the trump mob smeared on the wall, and to every decent notion anyone ever had about this country. it's also a lie. it's a lie most republicans and even some in the media want to tell you because it makes republicans feel better, and apparently making republicans feel better is really important. because while there elected officials hid in terror, with every single democrat, the party itself very quickly changed their mind, led by trump and their favorite billionaire news channel, rupert murdoch's fox. they created a new big lie that january 6th was just a normal tourist occasion and really not that big of a deal. will you know what, sorry, but it was a big deal. it was an insurrection, the first violent sacking of our capitol since the wa

we believe that president-elect trump and his former vice president mike pence actually haven't evene in 2021. so they're coming face to face for the first time in four years there in the cathedral today. the dean of the washington national cathedral spoke to reporters yesterday. he said he had the opportunity to meet late president carter when he was a teenager. he said that carter was famously punctual, which is something that can't be said about all presidents. so they are going to try to honor his punctuality today by keeping the service to time, which they say is something that carter would have wanted. so we anticipate that, if everything goes as planned, the service will last about an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and a half. >> thank you. yes. the dean of the cathedral saying you're watching history unfold when you come to these funerals. it's not only an opportunity for people to remember a president, but also to watch the people that are honoring him that have gathered here for that very moment. douglas, you knew the former president so well. people like to hear these anec

you can hear them chanting hang mike pence. it's crazy to me that the effort to rewrite the history of january 6 has been as successful as it has been when you have so much video of exactly what happened that day for anybody who wants to see it to see. >> let's move forward. susan, what comes next? what are you expecting when donald trump's more controversial administration picks have the confirmation hearings? >> yeah, this is the first really big test where we will stop speculating and start to understand about the concrete nature of trump 2.0 and one of the big questions is to what extent, if at all, will republicans in the senate, he can only afford to lose three votes in any one of these controversial cabinet nominations he has put forward, with senate republicans book him in any serious way or not. i think and you look at the upcoming confirmation hearings for pete hegseth, his fox news host nominee to be the secretary of defense. facing allegations of sexual misconduct and questions around his previous experience or lack

and mike pence and mike pence. mike pence, those efforts culminating on january 6th, 2021, after trump addressed a crowd of his supporters before many of them marched on the capitol to disrupt the transfer of power. smith recounts several events from that day, including when trump sat back at the white house watching rioters attack the capitol while sitting in the oval office dining room. while there alone, he sent off a tweet. rioters then read it out loud in almost real time, with a bullhorn. mike pence didn't have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our country and our constitution, giving states a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify. >> usa demands the truth. >> in the conclusion of that report, jack smith writes that he believes the facts and law supported his team's findings against trump, but only the 2024 election derailed the prosecution. smith writes this quote indeed, but for mr. trump's election

i never forgot it, mike pence said to al gore in the recollection. u do not know how much that means to me, al gore said, coming from you. what pence did and did not do four years back underscores the high peril of what is often considered all but a formality, certification of the electoral college vote. more from michael cruz in politico magazine, if you want to read that. andre in ohio, republican. good morning. caller: good morning. thank you for c-span. thank you for taking my call. quite a timely subject, this one. i am a fairly frequent caller. i am a registered republican. i have not voted for the president-elect in his two attempts. and i am one of the, i guess, few people watching c-span that watched this whole thing come about. and it is unbelievable that there are -- the only kind word would be seedlings that either never witnessed what happened or are so deep into what is essentially fascist ideology to invent all these stories about green being yellow. of course, we're watching it right now. on your screen, or at least i am, what went dow

hang mike pence! hang mike pence! >> reporter: today, pence saying, "i welcome the return of order and civility to these historic proceedings. it being particularly admirable that vice president kamala harris would preside over the certification of a presidential election that she lost." nearly 1,600 people have been charged for their actions on january 6th. 600 of them for assaulting or resisting law enforcement. 140 officers were injured. but trump has called the but trump has called the rioters patriots and hostages. vowing to pardon them on day one. do you believe that the president-elect should pardon -- >> i'm going to leave that to him. that's his power to exercise. but people who beat up police officers, i would put them in a different category than others. >> reporter: president-elect trump calling today's certification a big moment in history. and president biden hoping the nation has turned a page. >> i think what he did was a genuine threat to democracy. i'm hopeful that we're beyond that.

we all remember the rioters chanting "hang mike pence." he spoke publicly and praised vice president kamala harris, calling it particularly admirable she presided over the certification of an election that she lost. what do you make of that? >> it was consistent with what he did four years ago. he stood up to donald trump. donald trump put tremendous pressure on mike pence to go beyond his constitutional duties and overturn the results of the election, do something he had no power to do, send results back to the states or throw them out completely, to have a new election or install donald trump as president. he saw in kamala harris what he had done four years ago. it isn't something extraordinary, isn't something that should be an act of heroics or something, this is just what you're supposed to do in office. i would say one thing about rewriting of history that's so crazy is this was all on video. you can see the rioters beat the police and drag people down the steps and use the american flag to assault people. you can hear them chant "ha

there was no more than a handshake between mike pence and donald trump. >> i got a kiss from mike pencebut the fact our country transitions power and honors presidents who came before. it wouldn't have been done better than it was done today. >> speaking of that, the music. jonathan alter is with us and wrote the carter biography pointed out that not only is every selection meaningful to jimmy carter, imagine john lennon, john denver, but i was wondering about the selection by wagner in the end. jonathan, jump in here. what can you tell us about the meaning of that? >> many people know that jimmy carter was protege to the father of the nuclear navy and colin powell said that's what won the cold war because the soviets did not have them and jimmy carter was right there and almost didn't get hired based on his very harsh interview. one of the questions he was asked, what kind of music you listen to? carter mentioned the music he loved. and he said, which movement? >> [ laughter ] >> he drilled down into the sand carter hadn't answered the questions properly, history would be different. >>

amid unfounded allegations of voter fraud. [ chanting hang mike pence ] >> reporter: a rioter was shotnd killed by a police officer. interlopered filled the halls and ransacked offices. trump's allies pleaded for him to speak up, and he finally did, after more than three hours. >> we had an election that was stolen from us. but you have to go home now. we have to have peace. >> reporter: by 8:00 p.m. , the capitol was secure again. >> those who wreaked havoc in our capitol today, you did not win. >> reporter: and lawmakers who never abandoned the building entirely returned to their work. nearly 4:00 in the morning, incoming president joe biden and vice president kamala harris were certified. >> joseph r. biden jr. of the state of delaware has received 306 votes. >> reporter: as the official and legal winners. tom foreman, cnn, washington. >> that's how we remember the day now. the question is will history remember it that way? four or 40 years from now. congressman kinzinger, you were in the house. you tweeted at 4:30 p.m. four years ago on this day, you tweeted this is a coup attempt.

donald trump shakes hands with mike pence and melania, as well as karen pence remains seated by his side. karen pence did shake the hand of barack obama and several of the other former presidents and first ladies. it wasn't, though, all icy reception for trump. what appeared to look like a moment of bromance going viral. trump and obama seen having a lighthearted chat. at one point, he even got a laugh out of the 44th president. >> i didn't realize it how friendly it looked. i saw it on your wonderful network just a little while ago before i came in, and i said, boy, they look like two people that like each other. and we probably do. we have little different philosophies, right? but we probably do. i don't know, we just got along, but i got along with just about everybody our my panel is back. >> donald trump seems to really have enjoyed watching the video of his interaction with barack obama. a pretty remarkable. >> yeah. look, we would be better served as a country if we got this version of donald trump more often. and i think generally the idea that people who are on two different sid

but of particular note there, the interaction with mike pence. that was fascinating to watch. karl. >> oh, it really was mike pence who served donald trump so loyally and had such a spectacular break with him on january 6th. you know, seeing the five presidents together, it is such a moment, a rare moment that you saw barack obama, such a rare moment in american history when we see the presidents get together. it's been about seven years since the funeral of george h.w. bush. so five current and former presidents, we will see there there's barack obama. we're also going to hear the words of a sixth former president, david stephen ford, the son of former president gerald ford, who died almost 20 years ago, is going to read a tribute, a eulogy to jimmy carter that was written by his father, that was written by president ford. ford wrote it shortly before he died, wanted to pay tribute to the man who beat him. gerald ford, lost to jimmy carter. jimmy carter became president. there's a moment right there. barack obama sitting next to president trump. suffice it to say something, y

hang mike pence! hang mike pence! >> the counting of electoral votes was paused as lawmakers from both parties fled, or barricaded themselves inside secure locations. vice president pence was taken to a loading dock, but he refused to leave the building. cassidy hutchinson, a top aide to then chief of staff mark meadows testifying that trump, quote, thinks mike deserves it. he doesn't think they're doing anything wrong. in the violence that day, one rioter was killed by police defending the house chamber. three others in the crowd also died. one capitol police officer who was attacked died the next day. a number of other law enforcement officers would die by suicide in the months that followed. at the time, top republicans in congress blamed one man. >> all i can say is count me out. enough is enough. >> the president bears responsibility for wednesday's attack on congress by mob rioters. he should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding. >> there's no question, none. presiden

trump hosted the premier of a film about john eastman, who pushed mike pence to reject electors and stop the certification of the 2020 election. among those in attendance were marco rubio, rudy giuliani and michael flynn. trump praised his former lawyer, insisting eastman was quote, right the whole time. we have reporters and analysts in place covering all of these new developments and we're going to start with van hilliard in west palm beach. what do we know about this gathering at mar-a-lago? >> reporter: it's where the action is going to be on january 6th, tomorrow, but this weekend, the action was here down in palm beach at mar-a-lago. the former president and now president-elect hosting a cadre of election deniers who were instrumental in his efforts to try to overturn the 2020 election. you're seeing some of those individuals. john eastman, lawyer who was indicted in the georgia racketeering indictment that donald trump was included in. he was the one on january 5th and january 6th who was pressing donald trump that he could tell mike pence, his vice president, that he had the lega

utilizÓ electores falsos, dice el reporte presionÓ al vicepresidente mike pence varias veces, humillÁndoloe esa carta va a poder entender. >> claro, Él asegurÓ que fue un reto hacer esta investigaciÓn. cuÁles cree usted fueron los principales retos? >> bueno, el hecho de que estÁ acusando a alguien que estuvo en la casa blanca, que va, que quiere y regresa a la casa blanca, eso es algo que Él en muchos casos no confronta. tambiÉn el hecho de que hay ciertas inmunidades que la corte suprema ahora nos dice que hay y que Él tiene que procesar el ca y tratar de proceder aunque haya inmunidad en ciertas cosas. todo eso no es comÚn en un caso iminal y por eso en gran parte se llevÓ mucho tiempo. >> cuÁl es el propÓsito de dar a conocer este reporte ahora? >> bueno, la ley del fiscal especial lo requiere. asÍ que cada fiscal especial, cuando termina su investigaciÓn, estÁ obligado bajo la ley a emitir un reporte. pero yo creo que Él quiere dejar claro tambiÉn en este reporte. la historia quiere explicar que para un futuro ya sean dÉcadas, a cientos de aÑos en un futuro, que puedan regresar y ver

there is vice president mike pence and vice president al gore.interesting moment that pence told gore that when he decided to follow the constitution and preside over the awarding of the electoral votes to joe biden back in january 2021, it was al gore who he took some inspiration from. al gore, who presided over the counting of the electoral votes in his own defeat. despite many members of the house objecting, and gore said to him, that means more to me than you can know. and anita mcbride, one of the things that's so remarkable about this is the presence of first families. and you told me just a minute ago that there are individuals there dating back to the family of president franklin roosevelt. right. >> exactly. one of the granddaughters of franklin roosevelt, along with representatives of every presidential family from that point forward, are together in that moment of national significance. but they were also together this morning at the white house. and the bidens had invited the carter family and presidential families to be together befo

, from doing in 2021, and those -- that violent mob that you referred to threatened to hang mike pencee walking through the capitol, you know, and trying to disrupt that peaceful transfer of power and that certification process. you know, four years ago on january 6th, it's also important to note that vice president harris as a senator and then the vice president-elect was literally inside the democratic national committee headquarters when thpebomb was discovered near a park, which i know you'll remember that. she had to be evacuated. so the stakes of this moment are literal for her. they're real for her, and some folks will be in that building today. >> for so many of the folks who are going to be in that building today, errin, because for someone who's been on the hill, the 6th is such a seminole moment, and it's big for everything that happens in the ways the parties interact with each other now, but i think if you had asked most people, republicans or democrats on january 7, 2021, if they would ever see donald trump inaugurated once again to the white house, they would have said a

some chanting "hang mike pence." >> hang mike pence! >> reporter: but trump has maintained his innocence throughout and stated he never intended for his supporters to commit violence. smith says he decided not to charge trump with inciting an insurrection because the office did not develop direct evidence of mr. trump's subjective intent to cause the full scope of the violence that occurred on january 6th. trump's legal team overnight made a last-ditch effort to block the release of the report, arguing, "never before in our nation's history has the department of justice attempted to interfere with an incoming presidential administration." but judge aileen cannon, who was nominated by trump, rejected their request. david, tonight, trump is mocking jack smith, saying flatly, the voters have spoken, electing him again. he's well aware of the doj policy that a sitting president cannot be prosecuted, david. >> david: pierre thomas, thank you. >>> next tonight, and to wnba star caitlin clark's alleged stalker. the suspect in court today. and

we see president-elect donald trump about to take his seat, greeting mike pence.r thoughts. >> that's quite a moment, isn't it? as you know those two men have not been close since the trump presidency. i believe this is the first time they've met and spoken since january 6th, 2021, which was a day we all remember. you know, this is -- it's interesting because today it looks remarkable to see of these republicans and democrats, former presidents, former vice presidents who have such differences. to see them altogether. that seems remarkable. i think back to when jimmy carter was in office, which was a long time ago, it was almost 50 years ago. it would not have been remarkable then. >> i'm going to point out president obama, vice president al gore, dan quayle. >> yeah, and, lester, it would not have been remarkable to see this during the carter years. you know, nostalgia is -- you know, we have to look to the future. we have to look to the present. but there are things that we have lost from the past and one of them is this -- we have become so polarized, our polit

today, mike pence said he welcomed the return of order and civility to these historic proceedings.vice president kamala harris would preside over the certification of a presidential election that she lost. here�*s the moment she did so. the votes for president of the united states are as follows. donaldj trump of the state of florida has received 312 votes. kamala harris... kamala harris of the state of california has received 226 votes. speaking after the event, the house speaker mikejohnson said illegal immigration would be a priority both for congress and the president. there will be lots of executive order action on the border and we will be passing legislation one—way of the other foot of the question is whether we use reconciliation as a strategy to do that. stay to to be excited, it�*s an exciting time, you can see a lot of activity and we�*re very much ready. around 60 million ameicans are under severe weather alerts, as a winter storm sweeps through the east coast — bringing heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures. as many as five deaths have reportedly been connected to

transfer of powerio frm seriously injured more than 140 heroic police officers, threatened to hang mike pence, a down members of congress is the height of irresponsibility. >> think it's her. yesterday speaker johnson sitting reconciliation package specifically they can avoid having to negotiate with democrats. i wonder what you think of that. are there any bills that democrats may not be able to support because of that? >> the republican party wants to cut social security, medicare, medicaid, veterans benefits, and nutritional assistance from the children ande families in this country. house democrats will not support those reckless cuts because our focus should be lowering the high cost of living for everyday americans and working-class folks all across this land. and not facilitating the gop tax scam part two. which is designed simply to enact massive tax breaks billing and wealthy corporations and not help those americans who are really inne need. >> leader jeffries, thank you. you mentioned house democrats stand ready to help those in california. what that assistance look like? how quick

that's ÷÷essentially what played out yesterday, and what is remarkable, there's reporting that mike penceunce to the world that the man he ran against and contested in the supreme court was ultimately the winner of this contest. >> that election of course, being decided by hundreds of votes in one state. there has been this sort of rewriting or attempted rewriting of history. >> yeah. >> by president- elect donald trump. here was marjorie taylor greene, a trump ally, on monday. watch. >> it's absurd. january 6th was not an ÷÷insurrection. i'm completely sick and tired and fed up of the democrats' narrative, the media narrative, and it's a total lie.÷÷today is a great day. >> and that of course, something÷÷that, you know, clearly there are a lot of voters out there who didn't think that what happened on january 6th was disqualifying enough not to vote for donald trump. >> that's the extraordinary thing. you talk to democrats and ones i spoke to yesterday are really concerned about the idea of whitewashing this event into basically to oblivion that you look at it as marjorie tame ylor green

former chief of staff to mike pence.nks for being here. >> good to see you. >> every report i read when it comes to the panama canal and greenland and canada, it is actual demands and a point to get leverage and trolling. what does that say about the president-elect's upcoming administration before he is in office, he is making demands and maybe just trolling? >> frank, he enjoying the trolling and bringing attention back to him. i don't think it is an accident that the focus on panama was the same week of the passing of jimmy carter and his state funeral because, obviously, that was a big part of the carter administration giving away the panama canal. i think there is heightened concern about china and i remember in 2019 the president sent vice president pence up to iceland for an arctic summit to talk to some of our allies up there about the concerns we had about china's growing investment and i think that megan's analysis was great about the fact that there has been a continued concern that china is not only investing

citizens using trump flags and american flags beat police officers, chanted they wanted to hang mike pencer kill nancy pelosi and hunt down anyone of us and i remember it was very startling to me as we were taken out somebody hollered take your congressional 10 because they won't care if you are a democrat or a republican because they will hurt or kill anyone of you. to me i'm having a very hard time processing this crowd of what the vice president did. i am proud of her and how difficult it was personally but she didn't reveal that. she had a constitutional duty but still trying to resolve why it is that four years later we do have a former president or about to be president again unwilling to acknowledge the truth of what he incited that day and sadly so many others trying to rewrite the truth. >> to that point, how does it feel when you hear some republicans come out and support pardons for some of the january six rioters? we did hear suggestions that there were grandmothers on an unauthorized tour of the hill and do you think there has been prosecutorial overreach? is there any part of

and just as we commended mike pence for having the courage to stand up to donald trump, it takes -- when people lose, whether you're a child or an adult, it's hard to lose. that's why you don't want to be a loser. and -- >> that's why donald trump couldn't do it because he lost. >> that's why we are here because he couldn't be an adult. he couldn't stand up and say, you know what, the country is bigger than me. the voters decided four years ago. today he still hasn't done it. now you can try and compare 2000 and 2004 and -- but that's not the same. and you can -- i know, i know deep down inside that you also know that what happened on january 6th we have never seen anything like that in our life time. and god hopes we never do. that's not what happened in 2000. >> we can just -- i do want to say, i remember 2000. and i remember al gore going through that process of trying to get a recount. and i remember the supreme court stopping the count. 287 votes down, i think. and i remember al gore doing something extraordinary. he gave a concession speech. it is 100% appropriate to fight as long
