today bennie thompson told reporters that the committee wants to hear from mrs. thomasinni thomas. we think it's time that we would, at some point, invite her to come talk to the committee. >> later he added the committee has sent a letter to mrs. thomas. thomas who speaks only with right wing media organizations told the "daily caller" she can't wait to clear up misconceptions. i'm going to start with you, jill. three of the emails that were sent to mark meadows by ginni thomas. the majority knows biden and the left are attempting the greatest coup in history. it takes time for the army who is gathering for his back and a third, can't see americans swallowing the obvious fraud just going with one more thing and the with no frickin consequences. we can't continue the gop charade. if you had virginia thomas in front of you on this committee, what would you want to ask her? >> i would want to ask her all the questions about her full role, not just these emails to eastman, not just her emails and texts to mark meadows, but i want to know more about her planning possibiliti

mr. thomas. i just wanted to say, i need to speak slowly here, the other side is all the people that worked for the former president who are being interviewed by the committee. that's the other side. it's not the democrats saying what happened, it's the actual people that worked inside the campaign, that worked right next to the man that told them that he lost. he lost the election. but instead, he did something else. so the other side is the people that worked with him. like, i don't understand what you're talking about like there is no other people. that is the other side, mr. thomas. those are the people, okay? secondly, just for one second, where did you grow up? where are these circles that people are talking about going in voting? when does that happen? when in schools did you ever hear, oh, let's start this thing, let's go vote and she. what is this thing about sheeting, all these laws are talking about are only put in place to make one type of voter feel comfortable. can we just be honest

talking about the text exchanges between mrs. thomas in november and white house chief of staff mark meadows. i'll read one from november 10th. ginni thomas writing to mark meadows. you are the leader with him who is standing for america's constitutional governance at the precipice. the majority knows biden on the left is attempting the greatest heist of our history. those are the words of the text from ginni thomas. will the committee hear in some form from mrs. thomas? >> yeah, willie. it's not just those text messages the committee has obtained from ginni thomas. she also was e-mailing with john eastman, the architect of the legal crew working closely with the former president to try to implement this plan to overturn the results of the election by having the state legislators create these phony electors. ginni thomas was directly involved, e-mailing state legislators in arizona, encouraging them to sign onto it. we have heard by all indications that the committee has much more than we have yet to uncover about her communications wit

and i want to just emphasize, we don't know what mrs. thomas 's involvement is. we don't know if it reaches a level of criminal liability. again, we don't know how enmeshed they are enmeshsed work of justice thomas and his wife actually is. but it doesn't matter. any lawyer will tell you, the perfect question of professional excellence isn't a question of what actually happened. but what does it look like happened? one of the optics of this? the optics of this are quite poor. it seems every other day we are hearing about a new raft of text messages that ms. thomas has sent in an effort to overturn the election. if this were a drinking game, i would be passed out on the floor every time i heard about one of mrs. thomas's tests. so, this is not great for the justice. it's not great for the court. he's likely going to be hearing cases involving the january 6th committee. he has already heard one case involving the january 6th committee in their efforts to get information, to have information disclosed. and he was the lone dissenter in this case. with this added to it

. to eliminate russian belarusian athletes from the paralympic games, and it is interesting why mrs. thomash, in particular, does not go wet himself. what do you think about the complete disqualification of these athletes, and only some partial ones from his statements and we will eliminate from the competition only those athletes who openly spoke out in favor of the war , that is, only those who remained silent, it turns out that this is ok, i don't know hmm it's difficult to answer this question because i don't know how everything is arranged there, uh, how it all works, but from one on the one hand, as an athlete, you can understand what your country is doing there. yes, you may not support it there, but you can't say anything, of course it is difficult for an athlete to lose all competitions, and on the other hand, somehow you have to make it clear that what your country is doing is not normal and you you all have to answer for this together. and which of the famous athletes? well, maybe the freestylers called you directly and found out the real situation in ukraine, and in general, the

and i don't have a lot of respect for mrs. thomas, at all.g, you don't come after same sex marriage and contraception, of all crazy things, and same sex sex and say those are bad, those are bad because, we just think they are. and then, you have kavanaugh going into breakouts about why it is okay to have, cases which have already been determined, thrown out, just throwing them out because this is an egregious harm. literally, this is an egregious harm, and they are negative, real world controversies that have sprung up. there are. what he says is, it doesn't cause negative, real world consequences to have an abortion. ron, we have real world controversy. i don't know what these guys are doing, he should never have been confirmed, or collins. thomas, we can't even talk about, but his wife is committing crimes, and he is >> crazy otherwise you as, far as i'm concerned. >> brendan finances matthews, thank you. i absolutely agree with you there is an arrogance to justice thomas, who believes that the people before you stood on that bench were som

cbs news confirmed the "washington post" reporting that trump lawyer eastman emailed with mrs. thomas and she exchanged text messages with trump chief of staff mark meadows about overturning election cults. >>> still ahead, lgbtq authors share personal stories. how they are taking a stand against censorship. >>> plus, pasta, wine, cheese -- sinus up, i say. the bay area italian food hub is opening todays. guilty your forks and knives out. >>> the cooler weather that moved around the bay yesterday has made its way farther inlands. temperatures several degrees cooler than 4 hours ago and the cooler air is going to make its way right at home. take loong at how long it is going to stick around in the first alert forecast. >>> welcome back. the people the city of san jose welcomed home former mayor norm mannetta for the final time honoring his life, career and legacy he built up over the years at a public poermial service at the san jose civic auditorium. a packed house hosted by the mannetta family. the norman mannetta institute making sure speakers including family and friends got to spe

this isn't the first time that mrs. thomas has landed the couple in hot water. strangely she's the only spouse that remains active. chief justice john roberts' wife gave up her are work with a pro-life daws. ginni leaned into her political activism and launched a political consulting group whose group filed amicus briefs before the court that judge thomas sits on and arcing for an undemocratic and illegal reversal of an election. really calls into question justice thomas' impartiality. the justice said he and his wife are melded as one and by sheer coincidence justice thomas was the lone dissent to reject trump's bid to reject documents of the january 6th panel. the court is held to a different standard, basically no standard at all. they are basically untouchable. well done, founders. in the meantime the public is losing patience and faith. a recent poll shows that 73% of americans believe that the justices should be bound by the code of ethics that all the federal judges are required to follow, and yesterday democratic congr

order to eliminate russian and belarusian athletes from the paralympic games, and i wonder why mrs. thomas in particular, does not walk wet himself. how are you? do you consider the full disqualification of these athletes and only some partial ones from his statement? and we will eliminate from the competition only those athletes who openly spoke out for the war , that is, only those who remained silent, it turns out that this is ok i know, hmm. it's hard to answer this question because i don't know how everything is organized there, er, how it all works, but on the one hand, as an athlete, you can understand what your state is doing there. yes, you may not support it there, but you can't say anything. of course, it is difficult for an athlete to get rid of all competitions, and on the other hand, it is somehow necessary to make it clear that what your country is doing is not normal, and you all must be responsible for it . ukrainians showed support for ukraine and in general, well, the only athlete who called me was ilya burov, a russian, yes, with whom we have been there for many years.

mr. thomas to wonder will come on with the right? absolutely. even if miramar could be really difficult, only deceptive pieces for you. the subdivision with your sister stayed by meetings the conclusion that no substance would have push carrier to chest, you know, to last, preschoolers, seriousness, juries, etc. even i think euclid euclid. if josh, good not to do am daryl gene is just i will put you on a sam euros gillian leaf. well, michelle bonder has she political? she's matters which you will be chilly or natalie? yes, she likes polish to little wise pool, or i scheduled for i'm carol had normally here and she had is just an hour. and somebody says that you all will get a deal with a deisel akita mcgill talked about stuff over paramedics, h t y, in their official document such as premium guidelines on o u. n. combat and activity and war by in the band. a rides refer to themselves in no other terms than an order of fanatics and fight as land the by step and bandana bound. do they call to their supreme leader? cleansing territories of the enem

. >> reporter: the daily caller says mrs. thomas signaled she may be willing to talk, telling them she can't, quote, wait to clear up misconceptions. the justice department told the committee that they also want some of that witness testimony to try to help in their criminal investigations. the committee said that it will cooperate, quote, eventually, but is operating on its own timeline. ryan? >> all right, thank you, skyler. reporting live from our capital. >>> hundreds gathered in the south bay today to say farewell to one of san jose's beloved native sons. >> norm mineta was right, and we need to follow him right to the very end. >>> plus new safety changes coming to oakland schools. a message to parents dropping their kids off. >>> and it's pride month. one of shakespeare's best known stories is being told in a different way. circum >> is there a world in which we can imagine a possibility of two young women in 1848 falling in love? >> the cooler air that made its way in and around the bay yesterday, made its way much farther i

i can categorically confirm that at no time did i discuss with mrs. thomasstice thomas any matters pending or likely to come before the court. we have never engaged in such discussions, would not engage in such discussions. >> elsewhere here in washington, the four key senate negotiators of a bipartisan gun bill left an hours long meeting yesterday without a final agreement. senators chris murphy of connecticut, john cornyn of texas, kirmz of kyrsten sinema and tom till is, how to close the so-called boyfriend loophole of domestic abusers and democrat senator murphy says it is still ongoing and released a statement that the quote finalized a majority of the provisions but republicans seem less positive. cornyn left the meeting early and told reporters we was frustrated, they know where i stand and so far no agreement. the group would have to finish the bill today in order for the senate to have enough time to vote on it next week. and as we go to break, an update on the war in ukraine. a front page headline in "the new york times" reads, europe extends keys

issuing a statement on thursday, saying he can quote, confirmed that at no time did i discuss with mrs. thomas, or justice thomas, any matters pending or likely to come before the court. we have never engaged in such discussions, would not engage in such discussions, and did not do so in december 2020 or anytime else. he added that his emails with her were in regards to a quote, update about election litigation, to a group she met with periodically. so there is a lot still to learn here. one thing we are still trying to figure out is when exactly ginni thomas, and the committee, will meet. and this kind of adds to what we talked about last hour, how the committee is still meeting with witnesses. she could possibly have a missing piece to the puzzle, here in the committee's investigation. >> yeah, i guess they're going to dig in and find. out ali graph, and thank you so. much for joining me right, now harry lippman. he is a former u.s. attorney and was deputy assistant attorney general in the committee clinton administration. he is our host of the talking beds podcast. harriet, welcome back. we

mr. thomas. those are the people. secondly, just for one second, where did you grow up?re are the circles where people are talking about voting and cheating? where does that happen? when do you ever hear let us go and vote and sheet? why is there something about cheating and all of this is to make one type of voter feel comfortable, can you be honest about that? guest: first, i was born in washington, d.c.. i could not help it, my mother was there. i grew up, went to school, started out on the radio and then joined nbc news as a copy boy where i got my first instructions in journalism. that takes care of the personal thing. you are right about some of the other side being those like william barr and mike pence who somebody said he should be hanged and trump is on record saying that might be a good idea. i do not endorse the personality, this is not my kind of politics. we ought to have rigorous debate at the kennedy place in massachusetts with a real old-fashioned debate between senator bernie sanders and senator lindsey graham. instead of these dog and pony shows with o

we still have mrs. thomas sending text to mark meadows. this is all part of the protection of the cart -- court. it's important that the public see it as part of the partisan -- >> here's the thing. have you talked about guns and abortion. then there's straight-up full frontal attacks to democracy. political reporting quote, video recordings of republican party operatives meeting with grassroots activists provide an inside look at a multi pronged strategy to target it potentially over -- in the muck ready as a coworkers and put them in direct contact with party attorney. the plan was outlined by republican national staffer in michigan. include utilizing rules designed to provide political balance for core workers to install party trained volunteers to establish a network of party friendly -- to intervene to block a little counts at certain -- i don't even know where to start with the. >> yeah, i am old enough to remember the first republican army that was set to steal the election. that was in 2000. those were the people who descended upon

after the committee revealed, it had obtained text messages from that day, between mrs. thomas and former trump lawyer john eastman. who himself is now at the center of the investigation. as further details emerged this week of just how hard he leaned on vice president mike pence to resist certifying the 2020 election, exhausting every option to keep trump in power while requesting a presidential pardon. democracy in danger. that is tonight, on politics nation. plus, the bipartisan gun framework that has emerged in the senate, in the aftermath of the buffalo and uvalde shootings appears to have a snag. tempering hopes of getting a quick vote. the twin threat of lax gun laws and domestic terror threats is looming over this juneteenth weekend, with the racist massacre in buffalo last month still fresh on black america's mind. and growing extremist threats to the lgbtq community casting a pal on this pride month. joining me now, congressman hakeem jeffries, democratic caucus chair, and a member of the house judicial committee. congressman, first of all thank you for being here wit

. >> there was some disagreement, wasn't there, on the committee as to whether to try to get mrs. thomas to come in? it would be unprecedented. >> that's exactly right. her role in this is such a fascinating one. it's at the nexus of what should be a non-political supreme court and efforts within donald trump's orbit to overturn the election results. as they were detailing what was happening with john eastman, of course, ginni thomas' connection to him as well as mark meadows is going to be of interest. what happened yesterday as the hearings were ongoing was the fact that the committee members publically got in line saying that they thought that it was time to hear from ginni thomas, because of things that they had come across in the course of their investigation. then, of course, after the hearings, and after we had heard from ginni thomas through her conservative news outlet saying she looked forward to clearing things up, saw me asking chairman thompson about this. the reason i was pressing him saying, you have sent that letter, is because he was speaking in the past tense. we hadn't

this follows revelations that the committee has emails between mrs. thomas and john eastman. a source confirmed their sx existence but would not discuss their contents. >>> and there is pressure to turn over witness testimony. in a letter the doj says that its own investigation is being delayed by the committee's refusal to cooperate. and adam schiff says that that will all be smoothed out. >> i've been involved in several high profile investigations. never seen the justice department say give us all your files. i think that the challenges, the breath of their question, but we'll work through temperature about. >> they asked for access to about 1,000 witness transcripts. lawmakers have refused to provide them so far. >>> let's bring in a criminal defense attorney and former federal prosecutor. so nice to see you bright and early this morning. it is becoming clearer every day that the former president and his aides, they knew that overturning bide's victory was illegal. the whole scheme, all along the way, they were told this has no legal basis and they kept pressing forward.

i'll read you part of what he says, he sedki categorically confirm at no time did i discuss with mrs. thomas any matters likely to come before the court. we never engaged in any discussions and would not engage in any discussions and did not do so in december 2020 or anytime else. for eastman and ginni thomas, they believe this is innocuous stuff and they believe the committee was misconstruing some of what they were talking about at that time. >> okay. well, she's invited to speak to them now. so we'll see what comes of that. evan perez, thanks very much for your reporting. let's talk about all these huge developments yesterday, with our chief litegal analyst jeffrey toobin. great to have you. i would love your take, 30,000 foot take on what we learned yesterday, how damming that was for the former president, and juxtapose that to what we learned about mike pence's actions. >> i've always thought that it is a remote that donald trump would ever be prosecuted for anything. the only thing he's ex-poedz for r exposed for is if there is proof he actually incited violence. that's the only possib

mr. thomas foley, executive director, national disability institute. ms. thompson, the century foundation and codirector, disability and economic justice collaborative. and the north carolina business committee for the office of the governor. the witnesses are reminded that their oral testimony will be limited to five minutes. you should be able to see a timer, or we will alert you that -- it will indicate how much time you will have left. i would ask you be mindful of the timer or hearing me vocally share with you that your time is up, so we can be respectful of both the witnesses and committee members time. -- and committee members' time. without objection, your written statement will be made part of the record. first, we will start with mitch kennington. you are now recognized for five minutes to give an oral testimony on your presentation. >> chair beatty and ranking member gonzalez and members of the diversity and inclusion subcommittee, thank you for inviting me to testify today. i am a white, queer, disabled jew, who lives in oakland -- lives in oak

thomas sent a letter to the january 6th committee asking for this, quote, better justification, why mrs. thomas' testimony is relevant to the committee's legislative purpose. as if pressuring state lawmakers to overturn election results in corresponding with the coup architect memo authored john eastman as "the washington post" reported this month is not justification enough. as the committee made clear yesterday the panel faces an ongoing challenge in fending off what appears to be a campaign. team trump influenced to tamper with witnesses. take a listen to what jamie raskin told our colleagues on "morning joe" on the last-minute hearing with cassidy hutchinson. >> it was of fundamental importance and we wanted to get it out. also my colleague and the vice chair of the committee liz cheney pointed out at the end they were very troubled about different efforts to influence witnesses, witness tampering is a crime in the united states, and we want to make sure that we send a very clear message right now that the committee will not tolerate any form of witness tampering or obstruction of justice.

now the january six committee has some questions for mrs. thomas. according to the daily dollar, she cannot wait to clear up misconceptions. yeah, neither can we, our girlfriend. we have collins jr. and former prosecutor and our power of the show the sikh of. she's a political strategist and campaign manager for joe walsh 2020 presidential campaign. charles, you are onset with me. i'm happy to have you here with me this morning. what was from your legal perspective of the most striking revelation from the hearing this week? >> we were literally on the brink of a constitutional crisis. we have to understand how significant that is when you consider the history of america at how long the constitution has stood without this problem. it was significant that we were a keystone take away from democracy of this crumbling. it shows how fragile our democracy is. noting that we have might have missed is that looking at it from a former prosecutor, when we learn from the big grift coming from the big lie, there was a lot of mey made by trump and people associa

mr. kennedy's theory it is private speech -- justice thomas: how is that government speech? would you explain that to me? mr. katskee: in garcetti this part made clear the test for government speech is a functional test, not a formalistic one, to determine whether the speeches pursuant to one's job. that has to entail looking at the manor, the time, and the place of the speech and how reasonable observers would see it, whether they would view that as speech as a government employee. so in the hypothetical that you just gave, that is the sort of thing given that moment during the national anthem, in the center of the field and making this public act and public statement, that would be regular ball. justice thomas: but what if the school district, as it did here, objected to the conduct for took place? how could that be government speech? normally when i think of government speech the government has a message, and someone is communicating that message. how would it be government speech if, as it has happened in this case, the government objected beforehand? mr. katskee: a coupl

mr. thomas brady edward patrick. being an new england myself, i don't blame them one bit. so my point here sir, this country simply can't afford critically a preventable one. i'm surprised in reviewing the league rules to prepare for this hearing, the schuylkill hearing we uncovered that the nfl requires footballs today. >> the rules apply to everyone and if there applied equally. >> commissioner are you currently in new york city? >> sim. >> so you are at sea level, and were at washington, d.c. at sea level. so what do we do in denver at mile high stadium with thousand 280 feet high above sea level and how do we account for the variances that do occur with their differing atmosphere pressures vis-À-vis the psi intervals? >> congressman it's one of the reasons why this editor of your colleagues have mentioned that we had a lengthy report following the plate gate. we had several studies that went with 50 pages or more talking about lisa's exact issues. i can't recite exactly what they were at this point in time but they considered altitude, they consider temperature, they c

that was journalist and military expert, thomas, he goes, mr. regal. thank you so much for your in science. you're welcome. let's take a look now at some of the other news related to the war in ukraine, nato, defense ministers and counterparts from around the world are meeting in brussels to discuss military aid to ukraine. here is urgently calling for more heavy weapons and ammunition as its stalks dwindle. nato cheesy and stilton barrack says he expects ukraine will get the support. it needs to find some differences between member countries on time, but that russia has banned 29 british journalists than 20 people linked to the u. k . defense industry from entering the country. moscow says the step is a response to what it calls biased reporting on the war and ukraine, and fueling ross, a phobia in british society. well, ukrainian forces have managed to push back russian troops from several areas. but in places like butcher european and but duncan, evidence of atrocities have been found. florida are now investigating more than 15 thousands. the cit su

mr. thomas rodriguez, how is he related to you and the organization? excuse me, to have 12. forgive me. while you turn to 10:12, who is thomas rodriguez? >> former employee, in the former facility manager at fort corden. >> for gordon, in georgia? >> prior to that he was a maintenance supervisor -- >> and stand, thank you. here we have an email from mr. rodriguez. as the facility manager at fort gordon and i correct that not your direct subordinate but you're subordinate >> he is in my chain of command, yes sir. >> this email is from february, 2021. this is two years after the conclusion of the period during which balfour beatty the acknowledge scheme to defraud the united states. two years later! here is an email from mr. rodriguez, you are subordinate -- i'm not sure you receive this email, mr. taylor. you did miss cookies, it was forwarded to you. mr. rodriguez says that the state of the facility department at fort gordon's quote, total chaos. he says, quote, words could not scribe the total chaos! and quote. he further states that the facility department in fort gordon has been lyin

as far as mrs. thomas is concerned, she clearly was not just exercising her constitutional rights.nally involved in what appears to be an effort to overturn the election in the last cycle. that is a serious matter, and it raises a question as to whether the supreme court justice she's married to should recuse himself from all matters related to this. there is a clear conflict of interest. the last point i want to make is the institution of the supreme court has been under attack for a long period of time. there was a time when scalia as well as rgb were approved by the senate with overwhelming margins, even though they had one conservative and another liberal. votes of 80 and 90 plus number of senators. those days are gone. now, we have this question raised with ginni thoms ma, the integrity of the court, along with the leaking of the alito opinion, is an issue at this moment. >> senator, on the subject of why this matters with the january 6th hearings, a document allegedly given to the leader of the far right militia group, the proud boys, before january 6th details plans to occup

thomas, how mr. crisp with the essay for 7 years. the former intelligence officer made serious accusations, saying the b n d supplied us with data for drone warfare that it was an arm that the an essay in this a the, any see since search terms. and the b n d provided the data constitutional rights were being systematically undermined. one intelligence agency, we're searching national data for digital traces on behalf of the other a devastating system. as they hunt for as much data as possible intelligence agencies need helpers, are our governments understand? we are going to need a lot of data about what people are uptown. so we're going to let the market take care of it, and then that will be the place where we dip our straws. and we can just slip up the data that we need. and that's how we're going to connect the dots that allows these companies to pursue these very strange arrangements where we think we're searching on google, but they're actually capturing every aspect of our online behavior in order to mine it for predictive sig

mrs. obama to honor thomas jefferson and his cultural legacy. -- plants that were grown at monticello during thomas jefferson's time, and this is one of her favorite quotes from thomas jefferson that i was grace the garden. the failure of one thing replaced repaired by the success of, another and instead -- this was assigned we kept in the jefferson beds the whole time. how did we decide what to grow? it was easy. with the first family eight. the national park service staff worked with the white house chefs with what they would use in the kitchen, what they would use in state events whether first family would eat. -- the chefs would come down and harvest throughout the year. -- they use some fruit for the first family's private meals, but these are tomatoes and radishes that were also a vegetable kebab that was that one of the state, congressional picnics. i think this was 2015. also the thing that they couldn't use. white house chefs process them for later use. and everything else they could not use was given away to a local soup kitchen. at the end of the summer, the first lady would have

bowers also received an email from supreme court justice clarence thomas' wife, ginni, asking to reverse mr. trump's election loss, according to "the washington post." the committee has requested an interview with her. >> she said publicly she looks forward to coming in and talking to us so i take her at her word that she intends to come in. >> reporter: georgia secretary of state, brad raffensperger will testify about, among other things, the now infamous phone call he received from the president. >> i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. >> reporter: four witnesses are scheduled to testify later today. that testimony is expected to include death threats they received due to false claims of fraud by former president trump. facing pressure to file charges against the former president and some of his staff, the u.s. district attorney and justice department say they are watching the hearings. mr. trump's actions in georgia, meantime, are currently the subject of a grand jury investigation with the da there expected to announce later this year whether they believe a

mr. tong, welcome to the "newshour." we saw in this majority opinion justice clarence thomas saying essentially that the american people haveight to bear arms that cannot be superseded by some requirement imposed by the government. what do you make of that argument? wiiam tong, connecticut attorney general: yes, this is a radical, reckless decision that puts at risk people, children across the country and commonsense gun laws in states like connecticut and other similar states across the country. after uvalde, after we lost 21 people there, after buffalo, almost 10 years after we lost 26 people in sandy hook, the justices should have stood up and said that states have police power, longstanding police power to protect public safety, and to pass commonsense gun laws. and they went the other way and created an entirely new test that people are struggling to understand. judy: well, we see now clearly a majority of the court has spoken. we just mentioned a moment ago the states that are directly impacted by this. what do you expect those states to do now? we know every state has a different language in the law. but what do you

mr. holder will be deposed by this committee on thursday. there will also be another opportunity for the committee to continue to call on againi thomas, the wife of supreme court jersey shore advertise clarence thomas, to also testify. they say she leaned on state officials to try to get them to overturn results. >> that certainly made headlines when that came out. skyler, we know the committee had a focus or theme for each of these hearings. we know there is one coming up on thursday. do you know what we can expect that day? >> reporter: yes, sarah. the goal for thursday, the committee says, is to try to convince those watching as to why they feel as though the former administration tried to lean on the doj to overturn the 2020 election. we should also mention that ranking member liz cheney also said she wants to hear from former white house counsel pat cipollone, who is a very integral part in all of this the committee feels. he has not cooperated with the committee up until this point and so they want to hear him testify either sometime later this week, perhaps in another hearing, but they want to hear his voice on record as well. >> all ri

mr. suhr pointed out, if you look at the original text of the constitution, separationf church and state is not there, but thomas jefferson, one of our founding fathers, wrote that that clause actually did erect a wall ofeparation between state and church, and that is how our founding fathers envisioned it. he also is the one who wrote when he was writing the virginia religious freedoms statute that it would be sinful and tyrannical for the government to compel a citizen to fund religious worship, and now education. so it really does not make the case is easier by shelving the lemon test. the lemon test actually did provide a good guidepost by which the lower federal courts were able to assess these claims. i just think these justices did not like the outcome that lemon would give because it was saying that governments need to be neutral with rard to religion. host: our next call is in south carolina, dependent line caller: good morning. thanks to c-span. it is a great program. my issue is i don't understand the controversy about tax dollars going to religious schools. it is everyone's t dollars. religious peopl

thomas has provided living proof. as a wise man named myers anderson liked to say, old man camp is dead. he sure is. mr. anderson's grandson, clarence, helped bury him. you know, what's even more impressive if you remember his courageous and determine person is also famously one of the most affable. genial and on self conscious people and all of washington. in fact after watching justice thomas and over these past 30 years i'm tempted to propose a new standard here tonight. the senate should only confirm the kinds of men and women who when their final dramatic confirmation vote is taking place, decide to turn off the tv and take a bath. [laughs] we should only confirm people who are happier tailgating out of an rv then rubbing elbows at cocktail parties. [applause]ourse that is a standard i can get behind! of course the campaign to intimidate and pressure this justice did not stop, did not stop when the gavel fell. the next year, the still fuming new york times smeared him as quote, the youngest, cruelest, justice. the hectoring never left the. justice thomas did not break or bend or bow. this is a part
