out that voters in arizona might be turned off by that, but then there's this emerging story from paul gosarct parallel. former republican congressman steve kick who was effectively drummed out of the party for stuff like this, yet congressman gosar hasn't seemed to face any consequences for this stuff at all. from your perspective in arizona, do you have an explanation for those of us in a national audience as to how these things fit together and how they're going to work out? >> well, i'll just say this is arizona. it's very difficult to say. congressman gosar is from our most conservative district in the state. but he flies under the radar a lot because he's from a rural area and he really doesn't have a whole lot of power in congress so i think they have been able to sort of ignore him for a while. but i think it's becoming increasingly difficult. first he appears, as you said, as the keynote speaker, the only sitting member of congress to do so. then he tries to form an america first caucus with representative marjorie taylor greene. which he backed off of once he found out that was goi

it's got a link to donate to his campaign, even though the link does have a typo, so paul gosar will actually get any money if you go to that link, oops. also, congress appeared to defend the fund-raiser event via tweet. i'm not sure why anybody's freaking out. when asked, congressman gosar told reporters, i have no idea what's going on, there's no fund-raiser scheduled for friday. it's kind of a weird response when you're asked whether you're holding a fund-raiser for a white nationalist, not i'm not a white nationalist, why are you associating me -- no, he said, i don't have anything like that on my calendar. does that mean it's not on his calendar for friday? does that mean it's scheduled for a different day? paul gosar is not being coy about where his sympathies are with this stuff. so what's happening with him with the republican party. we know from the steve king stuff of a couple years ago, this republican party, kevin mccarthy is still leader in the house, they can kick out people. in the case of paul gosar, they appears to have lost the will. we'll have more on that in just

so why are so few republicans or democrats calling out paul gosar? members of his own family know the truth. his brother dave joins me next. plus the former president may be gone but the cruelty he unleashed is now a permanent part of the republican ideology. the cruelty is the point, argues adam serwer in his new book, and he joins me tonight. and the delusion of the big lie is a powerful drug. and an expensive one. it's tonight's absolute worst.

paul gosar is one of them. andy biggs is one, mo brooks is one of them. this is what paul gosar, who is one of the people who is named by one of the organizers of the event that preceded the attack that wound up causing or contributing to the death of brian sicknick. here's what paul gosar, this is how he questioned fbi director wray this week. >> why hasn't that officer that executed ashley been named when police officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting? >> what do you make of the fact that paul gosar is demanding that this officer, who actually, i mean, we talk a lot about shootings that are questionable on this show. this is one that was not questionable from a law enforcement perspective. this officer had to do what he had to do to protect everyone behind that door, and he did what his job -- what do you make of the fact paul gosar wants his name out there? >> well, i think, you know, first of all, i think he should be scared to death and wondering if fbi director wray is going to start investigating him for posing for pho

paul gosar said i voted no, it does not bring us together.f the statement there. curt, why do these gop members try to equate the two dates? >> well, one, they're all white. two, they belong to a party that is a white supremacist, white nationalist party and three, the idea that any way juneteenth could replace july 4th, it's moronic and it's the same nonsense we've seen from republicans going on for the last five years, really. you look at the entire swath of party from the so-called evangelists and those who turn away while the president of the united states has an affair with the porn star while his wife is pregnant and the devout christian who has worn his faith on his sleeve for his entire political career. they call him a traitor and wanted to hang him on january 6th and now they want to take away juneteenth, equate it with taking away july 4th and equating the appropriate, historical context with racism in america with white supremacy and it is reaching the most ridiculous and dangerous proportions because while the politicians who are

paul gosar is not being's good -- talked about coy about this. this republican party, kevin mccarthy is still the republican leader of the house. they can effectively kick up people that have this problem that manifests in this particular way. this proble thatin the case of paul goes ar, they appear to have lost the will. we have more on that in a moment. stick with us. stick with us. le on skin. with secret, outlast anything. no sweat. secret. all strength. no sweat. seeing blood when you brush or floss can be a sign of early gum damage. new parodontax active gum repair kills plaque bacteria at the gum line to help keep the gum seal tight. new parodontax active gum repair toothpaste. liberty mutual customizes car insurance so you only pay for what you need. how much money can liberty mutual save you? one! two! three! four! five! 72,807! 72,808... dollars. yep... everything hurts. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ laura roberts is a columnist for the arizona republic newspaper. i want to show you the title of her

i think that these folks, you know, unfortunately, are exemplified by paul gosar who, during the oversight hearing, basically said the capitol police officer who was trying to defend the house chambers from the rioters who was breaching executed one of the attackers on the house chambers. and basically what he's implying is that person who was attacking the house chambers was somehow in the right. and that is just a crazy perspective, and i, for one, am not going to hop on this first bus to crazy town that paul gosar and others are taking. we're not going to go along for that ride. >> thank you, congressman. i appreciate your time. >> thank you so much. >>> i want to go now to this "new york times" reporting that allen weisselberg, the long-time chief financial officer could face charges and could face them as soon as this sooner. eli honig joins me now. good evening to you. if weisselberg may face charges this summer, what does that tell you about where this investigation into trump and the trump organization is right now? >> reporter: yeah, don, this investigation is about to hit a key t

paul gosar is a major source of conspiracy theories about what happened that day, even though as someone inside the capitol that day, knows what happened. as congresswoman cheney tells it, she helped him open his gas mask. marshall cohen joins me now. what happened at the rally that you were at earlier today? looks like they're continuing to engage in this almost fantasy like living in an alternate reality. >> that whole position was that the capitol rioters are being mistreated, mistreated in court and jail, they had the father of one of the defendants in jail now speaking, but the context matters. it is obviously horrible for people in jail. nobody wants to be in jail. but there are 500 people charged. most of them at home with families. they chose to go there that day. >> we were talking about this new video from the insurrection. what do they show. when you talk to people at the event earlier today outside the justice department, how did they explain the disturbing video that's come to light, that you helped bring to light? >> us our colleagues here and other news outlets work to une

paul gosar of arizona. this is what he said about the rioter who was killed as she tried to enter the speaker's lobby just adjacent to the house chamber. >> the capitol police officer that did that shooting, ashli babbitt appeared to be hiding in wait before killing her. why hasn't that officer that executed ashli babbitt been named when police officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting. >> ashli babbitt, to be clear, was crawling through, and it's on video, a broken window into the speaker's lobby near a number of members of the house of representatives with a crowd of rioters behind her. the mpd internal affairs, as well as the doj, looked at this. they cleared the officer who shot her in april. i wonder what you think hearing that congressman describing her as being executed by a cop. >> this is the congressman whose siblings put out like campaign ads asking people not to vote for him. >> that's right. >> i think those statements are moronic. and i also find it ironic that, you

there's no one member of congress more responsible for the attack on the capitol than congressman paul gosar. >> my name is david gosar. and and i am paul gosar's brother. >> my brother. >> he should be held accountable for all the lies he told. >> that led to the attack on the capitol. >> on january 6th. >> he should have criminal consequences and if he's found guilty should go to jail. >> this week he was at it again for trailing the officer who shot one of the attackers as an executioner. >> why hasn't that officer that executed ashley babbitt been named? >> here's a reminder what that capitol officer was looking at as the last line of defense between members of congress and the mob on the other side of the barricade. representative liz cheney was less than impressed tweeting, as the violent mob advanced on the house chamber i was standing near rep gosar and helped him open his gas mask. the capitol police led us to safety. it is disgusting and despicable to see gosar lie about that day and smear the men and women who defended us. >> and to be clear there are plenty of republicans like li

and it goes to what paul gosar, the congressman from arizona was saying, that kind of gives you a window into the thinking behind why they think they were justified in not voting for this congressional gold medal, because they think that the people who committed the insurrection were actually in the right and that ashli babbitt, the woman who gosar said was executed, was doing her duty somehow in breaching the capitol and trying to get into the house chambers and pose a threat to others. and i think that is just completely bonkers. they've taken the bus to crazytown and they want all of us to go along for the ride, and i'm not going to, and neither are most of my colleagues. >> well, i hope that their constituents ask them to all post pictures of themselves walking out to meet those supposed tourists, walking out to greet them, because you know what they were doing? hiding. they were hiding from them. they were running from them with everybody else. so, if those people were their friends and were such good people, which of you had the courage to go talk to them? which of you? post a pict

in an unsubtle rebuke to his many critics, representative paul gosar is planning a fundraising event hate speech. a post on the conservative social media platform telegram may have teased a fundraiser with gosar and nick fuentes associated with the charlottesville riot. what do you make of the fact that some on the right are wearing associations with white nationalists in an out and brazen way? >> there is a minimum of seven white nationalist groups that were part of the 1/6 insurrection, right. so when you have seven white nationalist groups that were there it is not surprising. i'm not trying to break my arm patting myself on the back, but it was me that found that out on tell. >> grant: it was the america first message side on telegram where we saw it. we know it is true. he tried to back pedal and be vague about it, but it is amazing it is out there. we have a republican congressman willing to do a fundraiser with a white nationalist group or a group that has a leader who said some awful things. you know, sort of a youngster that has really no grasp on reality. so that's the issu

the higher was congressman paul gosar. you have mentioned him plenty of times on this show. he's leading with the disinformation, the laws, the false flag theories about january 6th. i want to play a short clip what he said about ashley babbitt. of course, she is the pro-trump rioters who was fatally shot that day by a police officer inside the capitol. listen to what he said. >> they don't want us to know the truth about ashley's death, but we do. release the video. release the investigative report. give ashley the dignity she deserves. give congress the self-respect and stop covering up the murder. he's actually right about one thing. the authorities could be more transparent about this whole situation. they haven't released the officer who fired the shot, right? but he didn't tell the full story. ashley babbitt tragically was killed while she was breaking into the speaker's lobby, right outside the house chamber, while lawmakers were evacuating. the officer who pulled the trigger was the only guy between the rioters and ms. babbitt, and the lawmakers on the other side. ma

while the republicans are opposing and discovering the truth about january 6th and they've got paul gosar there and so i actually don't quite share the democrats at this moment with the biden administration is doing okay. >> at least members of gosar's family believe he should be removed from congress will be has that going for him. gentlemen, thank you so much. as always, bill crystal, don callaway and alabama a and i'm we're looking at you and your on the board. go bulldogs. thank you gentlemen, we'll do it again. coming up for us, the latest in the search for the origins of covid-19 and possible ties to chinese military. when the 11th hour continues. you may recall back in may, president biden gave the u.s. intel community 90 days to investigate the origins of the covid pandemic and report back to him. but so, for those efforts have stalled without cooperation from china. nbc news foreign correspondent kier simmons has new information tonight on why that might be. >> this week, more than 30 international scientists say that china should not be allowed to block a full inquiry into the o

others took issue with calling it independence day in the formal name and gop congressman paul gosard juneteenth is more debunked critical race theory in action, end quote. in case you didn't notice critical race theory that holds much of america's history in policies are infused with system make racism is the latest hot button for many conservatives around america and sparked a debate how diversity and race can be taught in the classroom. it was a popular talking point for republicans at today's faith and freedom coalition event. >> critical race theory says every white person is a racist. america is fundamentally racist and seeks to turn us against each other and if someone has a different color skin seeks to make us hate that person. i believe school boards across the country trying to teach critical race theory, trash our history. present our founders as racist and divide us by our color of our skin. >> instead of teaching all of our children to be proud of our country, critical race theory teaches children as young as kindergarten to be ashamed of their skin color. >> they're pr

day a yet, on capitol hill, we see seen people like paul gosar down louis gohmert repeat these lies that unarmed protest. they were quote unquote like tourists. it's wild to me how much the republican party has embraced this violent attack on the country. and also, how much the general public frankly, has done from. this fall what was the slogan for january six. this stunning attack that could've been so much deadlier, happen on the country. i were just not talking about it. and the plotters and people who are enabling them are just going about in the open. i tell you, i'm not going to let go of the story. >> all right, hunter walker. uprising got info. take a look. thank you very much. >>. >>,. center for disease control -- she's here to talk about the big new federal push to get the last 10% of adults vaccinated to get to that 70% threshold. much more. next. next for a convenient life hack. try febreze unstopables fabric refresher. with 2 times the scent power of regular febreze, unstopables fabric finds, neutralizes and eliminates tough odors trapped in hard-to-wash fabrics, like couc

here's republican paul gosar. >> the capitol police officer who did that shooting appeared to be lying hiding in wait, and no warning before killing her. question again, why hasn't that officer that executed ashley babbitt been named when police officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting? >> pretty stunning thing to say. republican congressman liz cheney obviously feels that way. she reminded gosar, quote, on january 6th as the violent mob advanced on the house chamber i was standing near representative gosar and helped him open his gas mask. the capitol police led us to safety. it is despicable to see gosar lie about that day and smear the men and women who defended us, but yet gosar is doing it, and some of his republican colleagues are, as well. they have forgotten all of that. they simply remember their fidelity to donald trump. maybe they have not seen the new video that i just showed you. i want to show part of it to you again. an officer, a police officer, getting attacked by rioters with a metal pole. it's shocking and horrifying, but you know what? t

congressman paul gosar is claiming federal officials incited it and says that a qanon follower killed in the attack was executed by law enforcement. their leader, kevin mccarthy, tolerates it all. and sets the example. he's set the bar pretty high there. here's what he said about president biden at the summit in geneva. and, spoiler alert, it is, also, a lie. and he knows it. quoting from a portion of mccarthy's statement yesterday, he said president biden should have used today's summit to stand up for our national interests. and send a message to the world, the united states will hold russia accountable for its long list of transgressions. unfortunately, president biden gave vladimir putin a pass. now, look. you can agree or disagree with the president's russia policy. i'm -- we're not -- i'm not here to support any political party's policies. you can raise questions about how the president plans to confront russia. you can raise questions about how the president plans to contain the threat that russia poses to this country and to our allies. you can raise all kinds of issues, that

let my play for you paul gosar. did he go out and greet the insurrectionists? >> no.t one of the people who was killed during the insurrection. >> why hasn't that officer that executed ashli babbit been named when police officers around the country are routinely identified after a shooting? >> it seems to me now what republicans are trying to do is not just ignore the officers, refuse to honor them, but now also vilifying them. when you saw the police officers who had their guns trained on the doors, why did they have their guns trained on the doors of, for instance, the speaker's lobby? from your point of view. >> because -- yeah, and i was receiving the capitol police alerts of what they did know right before that, which is that pipe bombs were found, live pipe bombs were found, that there were armed people coming into the capitol, that intelligence had shown on websites that people intended to bring their firearms to the capitol that day, and the mob had broken through five different perimeters. the last line was where andrew clyde stood and just 100 feet on the ot

the screen right now including the former surgeon general, the white house doctor ronnie jackson, paul gosare name of it, seems like it is semantics. >> yes. if you look at it, alabama, alabama, kentucky, south carolina, tennessee, texas, texas. sure, you've got arizona and california and wisconsin in there, but you have to understand these are also republicans who represent confederate states, okay. you cannot ignore that reality. what you are also dealing with, sure they want to say, oh, you put independence in it. what did they think it was? with juneteenth, when enslaved people, when black people in texas found out, but it wasn't until the passage of the 13th amendment, ratified by two-thirds of the states in december when shadow slavery -- see. >> we got to stop saying slavery. shadow slavery. because after shadow slavery ended you still had slavery without shackles with jim crow that lasted 92 years. the reason why this is important, i am a native texan, and i have to give props to state representative edwards who was father of juneteenth in texas, because what people need to understan

one of them is named paul gosar called the insurrectionists peaceful patriots and spent tuesday grillingver the officer that shot a woman trying to leap through a capitol window. gosar said that the aufrss were lying in wait for her, an execution. it's a distortion of events to whitewash the events of january 6. joining the conversation is scott mcfarland. scott, tell me about the reaction to this not being a unanimous vote to reward the men and women who gave with their bodies so that american lawmakers didn't giver with theirs. >> reporter: there was a lot of frustration but not surprise. among the 21 some of the most ar dant trump supporters and one is andy harris, the only republican in the delegation from maryland saying this otherwise commendable resolution is hijacked by speaker pelosi the push the claims that january 6 is an armed insurrection. harris gave me a written statement with quotes around the word insurrectionist. >> so charlie sykes, we are not only ones calling bs on the insurrection caucus. these are the tweets. kinsinger first, you're sick, paul. ashli was manipulate

>> on the floor of the house, paul gosar, the republican from arizona, who had previously been in communicationli alexander, is launching his own protest. >> what purpose does the gentleman from arizona rise? >> i rise for myself and 60 of my colleagues to object to the counting of the electoral ballots from arizona. so there you have it. the first objection. they're going to be separated now. >> i didn't have a view into the outside, but somebody texted me a photo of people on the inaugural platform. that was the first time i thought, wow. i can't believe we're at this point. >> it was almost the same moment donald trump was delivering this prophetic line. >> and we fight. we fight like hell. and if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore. so we're going to walk down pennsylvania avenue. >> outside the walls of the capitol, mayhem. a member of the proud boys named dominick pa zola got his hands on a capitol police riot shield. >> you hear officers on the radio screaming for help. >> harry dunn stationed on the capitol's east side races to help his comrades on the

republican congressman paul goh saturd gosar has no idea about a group despite defending his upcoming. >> reporter: this all starts monday night when a fund-raising flyer began circulating on social media proenting an event with congressman gosar. it's for america first pact. a group run by nick fuentes. a white supremacist and holocaust denier who called the capitol 6 attack awesome. congressman gosar who promoted the big lie himself and called the rioters peaceful patriots initially appeared to defend his appearance with fuentes. quote, not sure why everyone is freaking out. there are millions of gen y, z, and xors. they don't agree on every issue. cnn's manu raju asked about the event and claimed he didn't know about a fund-raiser happening friday saying, quote, i have no idea what's going on. we'll see whether it goes forward, but the pair have appeared together before. and, erica, if they do it again, you might say why are we giving oxygen to crazy town? why are we giving oxygen to all the conspiracy theorists? the reality is this is a sitting member of congress. he has important

. >> paul gosar, liz cheney tweeted he helped him put his gas mask on inside the chamber as they were mask on while those cops were putting their lives on the line in front of god knows what. >> it is so deeply personal, not just anti-police, and they're voting against these people who were there helping them from this. >> every time you hear the stories, hear the police officers talk about what they experienced -- >> the trauma. >> it's so much worse than we even see in that footage. >> these -- these people, of course, have continued to downplay police officers being beaten by american flags, the symbol of everything that this country stands for, being used as a bludgeon against police officers. it's just disgusting. >> also former president trump and allies pressured the jeffrey, and that's according to newly released emails turned over by the justice department to the house oversight committee. kasie hunt, explain this and what can oversight do? >> so i think the key piece of this particular story is an email that jeffrey rosen, the deputy attorney general -- he was the -- he was

paul goes area. he's kind of a fringe member from arizona republican. and there's this white supremacist holocaust denier named nick fuentes. this guy put out a flyer promoting a fundraiser for gosart he was appearing at a fundraiser with this white supremacist holocaust denier. gosar said he had no idea what was going on. but earlier gosar tweeted, not sure why everyone's freaking out about this controversy in reaction to a tweet about it. there are millions of gen z, y, and x conservatives. where are the house republican leaders on this? >> this is something they've been accepting and tolerating for months. he has spoken in front of this group. republicans said nothing about it. there are no consequences for the racist anti-semitic beliefs that he is coddling by appearing before these groups. it's this bizarre idea that the big tent needs to include racists and white supremacists. i don't understand why that is happening. but that is exactly what's going on right now. the leadership in the republican party at the washington level, they've decided it's better to just not say anything at all, don't give a credence to the critics, and they don't want to be the ones to kick certain
