>> katie, at least rule in washington that if you say newt gingrich's name three times he appears likee pops up like a bad penny over and over again. in one way, i'm not shocked at all. because gingrich is an opportunist. he saw trump as a great way to enhance his fading profile, so of course he's going to give trump the terrible advice he's given generation of republican politicians. and i'm delighted, actually, that one more person who can be an element in unraveling this entire maze that the trump effort to overturn the election put together has been called to account. and the committee, i think, will get a lot out of newt. he is a guy who communicates with a lot of people. he talks on the phone with a lot of people. you'll get his text messages, his calls, the meta data of who he was talking to. and this is a guy who loves to put himself in the middle of anything. this is going to be a valuable lead for the committee to run down, and it's a reminder that for all the other trouble that donald trump and his team of skels and goons and weirdos are facing, they still face the 1/6 commi

the january 6 committee, the select committee wants to hear from newt gingrich. in a letter to the former republican house speaker, the january 6 committee writes that it wants to discuss his role in pushing bogus claims about the 2020 election being stolen. whitney, this just crossed. i have to tell you, the letter in this language, is stunning. >> reporter: what they are trying to do is draw this line between efforts by newt gingrich to get people angry and to get people to act on that anger. that is the core theme at the center of this letter. the committee is accusing newt gingrich of trying to push others to pursue and exploit claims of election fraud before and even after the riot at the capitol. the committee wants to learn more about communications gingrich had with donald trump's white house about television ads that per petuated false claims. here is the key quote. they are trying to build this letter on this. this is a letter newt gingrich sent trying to really offer guidance on the television ads . this is at the core of this. the committee continues

newt gingrich in d.c.re is a new video this morning about the migrant bus arriving in new york city for the overwhelm texas border. the mayor here refilling a new plan to deal with that surge. he's planning to build these to pop up tent shelters in the coming weeks. one of them will be the bronx where we find nate floyd this morning, how does it look, nate, good morning. >> good morning, bill. the first tent facility in the bronx where i'm standing right now will be up and running into next few weeks. the date has not been decided yet. but we do know new york city has received 1,600 microns from the southern border. the city is having a hard time finding a place for all those people to state. hotel rooms come up at the shelter system is strained. in this tent facility is supposed to help that. take a look at what it is supposed to look like. you see above, the tents are expected to be winterized so they can withstand new york city winter. they will hold at least this one specifically in the bronx will hold

so, newt gingrich has some questions to answer. this is not a subpoena. this is just a polite, informal request. i would hazard a guess, he may not comply, in which case the committee is going to have to decide if they want to take it up a notch and issue him a subpoena. >> jonathan martin, trump now says he is seriously considering pardons for january 6th rioters, if he is reelected in 2024. >> yeah. >> instead of backing off in the face of all these investigations, it's as if he is doubling down and doing exactly, i think, what most members of his party don't want him to do. >> and look -- democrats have spent a lot of time, along with adam kinzinger and liz cheney, investigating the events of january 6th. we have seen multiple primetime hearings. i am sure we will see more hearings between now and the end of the year, into that inquiry. and obviously, that is not a topic that the republicans would prefer to focus on. they want to talk about issues like inflation, and immigration. but trump is extremely mindful, don, of his base, and especially the most

newt gingrich emerged as the avatar of polarization. how we see he was in the 1980's, but in the 1990's, he comes into his own of course, conservative media. it becomes a juggernaut figure when the show goes national. in 1991 and 1993, is dominating discourse, but getting a lot of oxygen in conversations about u.s. politics, and then fox news and other outlets found that later in the 90's. yet, if you look at the kinds of conversations that are happening in the early 1990's, including on the right, it is going to radicalize dramatically over the course of the decade. what are they talking about? they're talking about the voter. they're looking at 1992 ending era orders a shoe. here, you have a good chunk of american saying no to either already. they are choosing someone who cuts across so many different issues. someone who is pro-abortion. higher taxes, and attracts as many conservative voters as he does liberal voters. for both political parties, after the 92 election, they have the provost. they decide that is what they need to win th

is eric it was newt gingrich's contract with america? and at random has a times books at the time. i just picked up the book because it was a public and effect the public document reissued the book. contract with america newt gingrich's future in america and it became a significant national bestseller. then he became speaker was he hadn't even been sworn in his speaker and somebody stuck their head in my office said, you know new just got four million dollars. from harper collins for a book about being coming speaker. where and i said wait a minute, we just published. contract with america, which is his political vision. and now he's getting four million dollars and he hasn't even been sworn in that was to me offensive. it was also noted i should say by david streifel the publishing reporter for the washington post. and he picked up the fact why is new who hasn't even been sworn in yet already getting four million dollars. and the result was they said to nude it was said at the time. you're going to get royalties. i mean the house of representatives imposed this on him. you're goin

by the time he got interest in welfare reform, the election occurred and newt gingrich came along. so that was interesting. both parties were pledging to end welfare as we know it. he kept saying, we can work something out. gingrich and his more ideological way said i think we can have a dialogue here. both wanted credit for ending welfare as we know it. host: he mentioned the racial element that by the time this discussion about reforms began that what the welfare rolls looked like was a lot more diverse than how it started out in the 1930's. do you think that played an impact in elected officials wanting those reforms to happen at the time? >> yes. no doubt. the politics of welfare over the last century really has been racially fraught. there's no question that going back as far as nixon playing the race card and demonizing welfare recipients as these undeserving black people who were lazy and promiscuous and were costing us money, nixon called the welfare mess. by the time you get reagan demonizing the welfare queen, they were playing the race card like crazy to try and delegitim

my first day in congress was the day that newt gingrich became speaker for first time.her for quite a few years. a lot of things we disagree about. but he is a house of representatives guy. i would hope that he would come in and speak to this bipartisan committee about what he knows and the chairman outlined topics of discussion in the letter. >> the chairman said your committee was meeting yesterday to discuss the possibility of calling in former vice president mike pence as well as ginni thomas to talk with members of the committee. what is the decision? have you decided on whether you will ask those two to speak with you? >> when we have a decision, we will announce it. we do that through the chairman announcing subpoenas and the like. the committee rules as well as the pledge we made to each other as members is to not step outside of the boundaries of the committee rules. we meet frequently. we meet at least once a week and often more than that. we are heavily involved in making decisions and moving this process towards a conclusion. >> i hear you that you will not

january 6th committee is seeking the testimony of another major witness, former house speaker newt gingrichg to a letter asking for his voluntary, spreading election lies through tv ads. the committee says it already has evidence of gingrich doing this, in an exert he -- quote, the goal is to arouse the country's anger. if we inform the american people in a way they find convincing and it arouses their anger, they will then bring pressure on legislators and governors. congresswoman zoe lofgren from the january 6th committee is with me now. congresswoman, it's good to have you. what more can you tell us about the former speaker's involvement with the trump team? >> well, i think it's laid out in the chairman's letter. you've referenced his role in trying to get the election overturned just before the electoral college met. we also have information about his efforts to get the election overturned even after the riot on the 6th. so, we would like to talk to him and to hear from him about these matters. and i'm hopeful that he will come in. i served with newt gingrich, and i would hope that he

newt gingrich, i hope republicans are paying attention. thank you.cle back, jen saki started her new job at msdnc. can you think of a better example of media collusion and we'll remind you of some of the low lights in the white house from our previous job, straight ahead. want a permanent solution to homelessness? you won't get it with prop 27. it was written and funded by out-of-state corporations to permanently maximize profits, not homeless funding. 90% of the profits go to out-of-state corporations permanently. only pennies on the dollar for the homeless permanently. and with loopholes, the homeless get even less permanently. prop 27. they didn't write it for the homeless. they wrote it for themselves. i was injured in a car crash. they wrote it for themselves. i had no idea how much my case was worth. i called the barnes firm. when a truck hit my son, i had so many questions about his case. i called the barnes firm. it was the best call i could've made. your case is often worth more than insuran call the barnes firm to find out i could've made.

but you're right, newt gingrich, former speaker of the house, doctor would he need to do this.e of a supreme court -- i mean let's be real. ginni thomas, wife of a supreme court justice, was an active insurrectionist. there is no other way to put it. and what it does to me, we saw yesterday a retired new york city cop who rioted and stormed the capitol now facing ten years in prison. what about ginni thomas, what about all of these other people who did whatever they could to try to overturn the election results? that has got to be reckoned with because what they did i think is every bit as serious as what the folks who stormed the capitol did. >> can yesterday trump once again vowed to pardon those january 6 rioters, at least some of them. let's listen. >> i met with and i'm financially supporting position that are incredible. and they were in my office actually two days ago. it is very much on my mind. it is a disgrace what they have done to them. i will look very, very favorably about full pardons if i decide to run and if i win, i will be looking very, very strongly about pa

meanwhile the house select committee probing the january 6th attack has asked newt gingrich to testifyying the former republican house speaker helped to incite the anger of trump supporters by repeatedly making false claims about the 2020 election. newly revealed public records show the wife of supreme court justice clarence thomas pressured republican lawmakers in wisconsin to overturn joe biden's 2020 victory. emails show that two days after media outlets called the election for biden, ginni thomas messaged wisconsin state representative gary tauchen and the chair of the wisconsin senate elections committee, kathy bernier, asking them to "take action to ensure that a clean slate of electors is chosen for our state.” the washington post previously reported ginni thomas emailed 29 arizona lawmakers asking them to choose an alternative slate of pro-trump presidential electors. the revelations have prompted calls for justice clarence thomas to step down -- or face impeachment. but so far, he has refused to recuse himself from cases related to the 2020 election and the january 6 insurrect

because there's fairly big breaking news this b evening abt your request to speak to former speaker newt gingrich, one. president's casual advisers, if you will. you cans, tell us a little bit more about the specific actions undertaken by mr. gingrich that have piqued the committee's interest? >> well, we have spoken obviously to more than a thousand witnesses at this point, and we're interested in talking to anybody who can shed some light on why this dangerous assault on american democratic institutions took place. how exactly it took place, and then what are we going to need to do to fortify ourselves against fycoup's, insurrection, political violence, attempts to manipulate the nooks and cran yifs the electoral college, in order to entrench minority rule and to get losers r propelled t the presidency. so i think that newt gingrich, speaking as one member, to my mind, was involved in that process, and used whatever knowledge he has to try to promote and absolutely insidious and indefensive interpretation offe the constitution. but we'll see. mean you know, this is why we ask people to come k i

i was the mc the night newt gingrich became speaker. first time in 40 years republicans took control of the house. they captain filled their promise. they had a contract with america. yours are commitments to america. i have urged republicans to do this, i'm glad you're doing t this. there is a very strong component of accountability here, all members that will run on these commitments they are pledging to voters that are going to keep them. correct? >> correct. i wanted to rollout in washington county, pennsylvania. the commitment to america is about you, america, not washington. what we have is a plan for new direction. we spent the year and a half, all the republican members in congress on different task forces going out to listen to the american public. if you watch the rollout today, that's exactly what we did here. we didn't get up and just talk to you. we took questions from the audience. how can we make this economy strong? how can we lower our gasoline price? how can we afford to stop inflation? a nation that is safe. 200,000 n

i've heard this before from newt gingrich, that he believes that if you can fire up people, get them ly facts be damned, that that's what helps win. >> look, whatever folks think of newt, i've known him a long time, we shared an office at cnn, he's one of the smartest people i've ever met. so this is deeply disappointing because he knows better than to call, you know, claims of rigged elections verifiable facts. h they're not. he knows better. and he still pushed this and actively tried to stoke people's anger and resentment and fear based on nothing, on nonsense. and that's wrong. that's an abuse of your position and your power and platform. it's just deeply cynical and manipulative. and so i was really -- i was disappointed to hear that from someone i like. >> yeah, i understand. by the way, he's not saying facts. he never mentions facts in here. his language is so careful and intentional, basically if we can present them with some sort of new info that they haven't heard yet, then they'll get angry. karen finney, s.e. cupp, thank you very much. >>> this week is a major test for air

we were together three hours ago. >> we were. >> i do want to ask about newt gingrich. s.e., the comment from gingrich in this note about an ad he was supporting, the goal is to arouse the country's anger. >> i'm just so disappointed because -- i know newt, i shared an office with newt here at cnn, we had a show could get, "crossfire." he is so smart, one of the smartest people i have ever met and to choose to foment the anger of people intentionally, especially about something that is not true, and newt is so smart he knows it's not true. there is no way he believed that the election was actually rigged. it's just awful and indefensible. that was always donald trump's project to turn americans against americans from the beginning and it became the project of almost everyone in his orbit over time and clearly it became newt's project, too, to use his influence and position to make people angry. that's not what politics should be about. that's not the function of politics. it should be to solve problems and hopefully bring people together. >> what struck me about this is

fox news contributor newt gingrich author of defeating big government socialism is here to racket., i think that she is ignoring how much the strategies of big government socialism stopping energy development in the united states, putting all sorts of regulations on business, subsidizing people for not working. creating an art official environment -- artificial environment for the economy. remember, this inflation is bad enough that the u.s. army just recommended to its younger soldiers that they go on food stamps. we haven't seen that since jimmy carter. the inflation is bad enough the price of food going to continue to go up this fall. nothing they are going to do policy wise to turn it around. the price of electricity keeps going up. 20 million families are already behind in paying their electric bills. i think that we are already in a situation where in any traditional situation you would say this is a bad economy, a painful economy and it's likely to get worse. >> brian: so democrats are saying that america is getting used to high inflation now even though 56% of the country s

i know you're still talking to newt gingrich, as well as jenny thomas, the wife of justice thomas.what point does that end and the committee moves into just getting its final report out? >> as you've mentioned, we've talked to more than a thousand people. we've looked at tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of pages of documents at this point. and i don't know whether there's ever been a congressional investigation of this breathtaking scope and comprehensiveness. and yet, still, it is ooh very strong first draft of history and undoubtedly there are people who have been concealing things and people not coming forward. and, we know we have to go with all of the evidence we've got. but we feel very confident that we understand all of the basic elements of the multiple offenses against american democracy that took place over the course of these events. >> okay, but bottom line is, as it stands now, do you expect to speak with newt gingrich or ginny thomas. and i should also put in the former vice president, mike pence, as well. just help us get some clarity on that. >> wel

the january 6th requested yesterday that former speaker of the how and newt gingrich testify.hrough what we expect today from philbin and cipollone in their testimonies to the grand jury. >> pat cipollone arrived two hours ago. >> reporter: we have not seen pat philbin yet and expect him to arrive later this afternoon. a unique situation we know what cipollone will tell the grand jury because he said it on camera before. remember? multiple investigations into january 6th. there is a doj investigation but then also the house investigation and he testified in a deposition for more than seven hours before the investigators where he talked and talked and talked. there video of that that was played during the january 6th hearing. so we know he agreed with attorney general barr where he said there was no widespread voter fraud and the lex was not stolen. we know he knows that if trump went to the capitol they would be charged with every crime capable. the grand jury will american more than the investigators did because of how much he is able to invoke his executive privilege with th

>> that's right, there is a new letter seeking as you said voluntary cooperation from newt gingrich, re about communications gingrich had with senior advisers to trump's campaign, jared kushner and jason milner. they say they have some communications saying gingrich was in touch with these folks and about false tv ads. they point to some correspondents that shows gingrich was emailing about trying to arouse the country's anger. they are basically saying, you are not sharing this information to get legitimate information into this advertising. you are trying to gin up anger based on false claims about the 2020 election. we, of course, are going to reach out to the former speaker to see how he's taking this letter. >> sara murray, thanks for bringing us the latest on that breaking news. >>> also ahead tonight, there is new scrutiny of two of former president lawyers lawyers who -- cnn's brian todd is working that part of the story for us. there are some serious questions, brian, about a sworn statement signed by one of the attorneys. >> that's right, pamela, questions over whether that

s capitol riots, has asked former house speaker newt gingrich for a voluntary interview. d in a letter to gingrich that they've obtained emails gingrich exchange with the trump team about television ads that repeated false claims about fraud in the 2020 election. the letter also said that gingrich appeared to be involved in a scheme to appoint fake electors and communications with trump's chief of staff, mark meadows. well it is now up to a federal judge in florida to decide whether to appoint a third party arbiter to examine materials taken from former president trump's mar a lago compound last month, the federal judge trump appointee indicated that she remained open to having a special master as it's called, examine those documents. the judge will issue a written order in due course, and if she does grant the motion to appoint an arbiter, it may delay the criminal investigation. i think for trump's purposes, the special master isn't really getting to the ultimate question of did he have the right to retain these documents because that's really the bottom line here. of th

hillary, thank you. >> dana: let's bring in former house speaker newt gingrich. hassan would say that general bolduc is such an extremist when it was democrats, we have this here. senate majority placed 2.3 million in attack ads of democratic fundraising money to try to elect bolduc because they said he was so extreme. >> well, you know, interesting in terms of the hypocrisy of president biden's philadelphia speech and his vicious, hateful attacks upon what he called maga republicans, democrats turn right around and in several states have spent money trying to help nominate what we would call conservative or maga republicans. purely as a political tactic. if they're that afraid of them how come they keep helping nominate them. the big thing in new hampshire, both in the house race you reported on and in the senate race, the anti-establishment candidate has done amazingly well even with a lot less money. the establishment candidate in the senate race had over $4 million spent by an outside group trying to defeat general bolduc who started in the army as a private
