not a single congressman like paul gosar or a single senator like ted cruz.now is minnesota senator, amy klobuchar. she chairs the senate rules committee and has been leading the effort to get that electoral count act passed. senator klobuchar, it's always great to see you. thank you for being here tonight. is this bill going to pass? >> yes, it is going to pass, and senator schumer assured me, and he has been working to get it on the bill as has mitch mcconnell, speaker pelosi, many others. this is very important for our country. i was the one that read the votes that night for arizona. i will never forget in the morning what happened. but mostly, i'll never forget what happened later in the night when at 3:30 in the morning roy blunt and vice president pence and myself were the last three there walking with the three pairs of young pages with the mahogany boxes filled with the electoral ballots up to wyoming. and that was after the insurrection and we said democracy will prevail, and it did. and two weeks later, there we were under that beautiful blue sky w

. >> there is a stark reality that people like marjorie taylor greene, and paul gosar, are going to befter having said things like, comparing president biden to hitler. these are people who speak out white machinations. so it seems nearly impossible to eradicate the virus of white supremacy from the republican party when, as you point, out of the policy itself mirrors that of a white supremacist policy and the interlocutors here are in southwest premised, like marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar. how then to proceed in the two party system, where one party is infected with a poison that could kill democracy itself? >> i think first and foremost, many people are attracted to bigoted ideas, to whet supremacy, two forms of antisemitism. because of the ways in which they are hurting, because of the ways in which they have been misled into believing the government isn't working for them, or the elected officials are not working for them. as you try to create more equity and justice for all people, and as you create a more robust and truthful educational system, then people feel less of a

>> paul gosar tweeted today he stands by the former president. that's paul gosar. >> right. we're not hearing the condemnation that one would have expected as loudly. >> even worse, what you are hearing is we can't be for trump again. i was a never-trumper they say, i'm a never-trumper again now. why? because trump doesn't win. we just saw trump didn't win in this midterm election, but trump -- to use a napoleon metaphor, he's reconstituting his base of support. there's no reason -- i'm sorry. >> i appreciate the napoleon reference. >> a dinner table conversation at your house. >> anyone who suggests he plays a bad hand well. to think he's off the table is naive, and so i just -- i think it's incouple bent upon republicans to not say he's not a winner. >> right. please. >> this wasn't a crucial do or die vote for democrats, but having that extra democrat there, that 51st seat helps them. >> huge. >> enormously. talk about how. >> first of all, it means democrats can control committees and have subpoena power, fast track legislation and nomination, but it's still divided gove

i actually brought the resolution against paul gosar when he had tweeted about putting alexandria ocasio-cortez in the crosshairs because that again is promoting violence. we cannot have that. >> congresswoman spear, i know you are retiring after 14 years in that role. this may be the last time we chat as congresswoman but it certainly will not be the last time we chat so happy holidays. congratulations on your congressional career. thank you. >> thank you. happy holidays to you as well. >> after the break, helping struggling students catch up with their classmates but it will require extra hours and days of studying. we'll hear from a state school official at this >> how would you like it if your child had an extra three hours of school and an extra 30 days to the school year? >> that is the state plan being implemented to help struggling students make up for pandemic learning loss joining us to discuss this, the expanded learning opportunities program, chief informational officer with the california school board association. thank you for your time. >> thank you for having me. >> explain how

because in a tweet, that has since been deleted, we have republican congressman paul gosar saying he agrees with the former president, writing, i'm quoting here, in gosar's words, unprecedented fraud requires unprecedented cure. making him as far as we know the first republican lawmaker to publicly come out and side with donald trump on this front. again, tweet deleted. we should note obviously there is absolutely no evidence of unprecedented fraud. this is a continuation of the election fraud lies. no response from the congressman's office just yet. what is the sense, what is the reaction from where you're standing there on pennsylvania avenue? >> well, just to start out, we've seen several republicans in the past few weeks, even frankly before the midterms, start to distance themselves from former president trump, and over the last few days, react to not only these comments but also last week, that dinner that former president trump had with nick fuentes and kanye west, and mitch mcconnell taking a not so vailed swipe at trump's 2024 bid for the white house in the wake of the comme

. >> and then there's the stark reality that people like marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar are going to be reassigned committee seats after having said things like comparing president biden to hitler. i mean these are people who speak at white nationalist events, so it seems nearly impossible to eradicate the virus of white supremacy from the republican party when as you point out the policy itself nears that of a white supremacist policy and the interlockiters are. how do you precede when one parties is a poise than could kill democracy itself? >> i think first and foremost many people are attracted to bigoted ideas, to white supremacy, to forms of anti-semitism because of the ways in which they're hurting, because of the ways in which they've been led to believe the government isn't working for them, the president isn't working for them. as you try to create justice for all people and create a true and robust educational system, people feel less of a need. but i also think it's important particularly for white americans who are largely the target of these republican elected officia

you have paul gosar, for example, citing an article from a website called some -- told me. i can't say that on tv. you have authority outlets being a source of these people, breitbart. italy-gate in particular came from a random youtuber named brad johnson and kind of filtered its way into republican officials and then to mark meadows. as to whether or not these are making it to trump, the evidence we have suggests that yes. there's limited evidence in the texts themselves about whether or not the information got to trump. we heard from the january 6th committee that trump was given a lot of this information. that he was bringing it up with doj officials who would shoot it down. italy-gate, people like it because it's the craziest one. also it's unclear if trump heard about it. some people who pushed it said they brought it to him. >> dominion voting machines was taken seriously enough that now there a defamation suit makes its way through court. i know it's impossible to know what's in the hearts and minds of these lawmakers. but i think it's important to stress that, a.,

then there's this helpful text from arizona representative paul gosar: "call me, i have some fireworks coming out of arizona early tomorrow. call me anytime, i'm up." "i'm up?" i know arizona is a desert, but this guy is thirsty. speaking of criminals, it's been a rough few weeks for crypto exchange founder and man who told his barber, "give me the shower drain"... sam bankman-fried. bankman-fried was the c.e.o. of crypto-exchange ftx, which recently went belly-up and cost investors $1.8 billion. what has this world come to, when you can't trust the guy selling imaginary computer coins whose name is almost exactly "bank man fraud"? what next? what is next. talk to me it what's next. don't get your annual check-up from dr. guy deth-kauser? yesterday, bankman-fried was arrested in the bahamas. today, prosecutors unsealed an eight-charge indictment, ranging from wire fraud, to money laundering, to conspiracy to commit fraud on the united states, which means he could face up to 115 years in prison. because this allegedly guilty guy is allegedly very guilty. allegedly. how allegedly? gillee

also right-wing favorite paul gosar of arizona sent a link to supposed evidence of election rigging. he got this supposed evidence and forwarded the citation to mark meadows in the white house. the blog he got the information was called some swear word told me. word that starts with b and rhymes with mitch. some blank told me. that's the name of the blog that he cited to the white house chief of staff to justify whatever means were necessary to keep trump in power. some b told me. congressman jim jordan of ohio texting a detailed plan for how vice president mike pence could overturn the election and proclaim trump to have been re-elected. expected to be house of the judiciary committee next year. there is no record of mark meadows ever replying to the messages. but in some cases he does. and there are also reference that's suggest he was communicating with many of these members of congress separately on incrypted messaging apps and those are message that's as far as we know the january 6 investigation has not yet obtained. scott perry exchanged so many texts with mark meadows full of

we have paul gosar for example citing an article from a website some which will be told me. right news outlet, leading a source of some of these people. breitbart. it's all over the spectrum. random postings online. italy gate in particular came from this random youtuber, brandon johnson, and it just kind of filtered his way into all these republican officials and got its way to mark meadows. as to whether or not they were making it to trump, the evidence suggests that yes. there's limited evidence in the tax themselves about whether the information got to trump, but we've heard from january six committee that trump was given all this information. that he was bringing it up with doj officials who would shoot it down. again, italy gate, i think people like it because it's the craziest one, and that one also, is not clear if trump heard about. some of the people who pushed it said they brought it to him, but that one is a little less clear. >> the dominion voting machine was taken seriously enough that now there is a defamation suit that is making its way through court. i know

also right-wing favorite, congressman paul gosar of arizona. he sent the white house chief of staff a link to supposed evidence of election rigging. he got this supposed evidence that he sorted the citation to mark meadows in the white house, the block that he got the information was called some swear word told me. a word that starts with b and rhymes with mitch some, blank, told me. that's the name of the block that he cited to the white house chief of staff to justify what whatever means were necessary to keep trump in power. some b told me. congressman jim jordan discussed in detail of how vice president pence could overturn the election and -- when he wasn't. jim jordan is expected to become chairman of the house judiciary committee next year. and in lots of cases there is no record of mark meadows ever replying to these messages. but in some cases he does. and there are also references that suggest he was communicating with many of these members of congress separately on encrypted messaging apps. those would be messages that as far as we k

in december, arizona congressman paul gosar spread outlandish lies about the dominion voting machineny claiming that china bought dominion in october for $400 million. again, this is not public stuff, right? they're not doing this on tv, this is communications to mark meadows, passing along this nonsense. congressman scott perry but the venue, again, as i said, now the chair of the house freedom caucus, texted about his efforts to set up a forensic cyber team that suggested seizing voting machines, putting them under lock and key to keep part of the coup plot. also sent chief of staff messages slip a qanon conspiracy theories that italian satellite photos, that one was going on a bit. he s meadows on york eaves, quote, why can't we just work with the italian government. well, scott, hate to tell you, you can't because the whole thing is made up, buddy. then there's georgia congressman rick allen, again, this is just going through a sample of republican members, republican members in good standing, not the people you hear a lot about, they are going back and forth with meadows. allen

in a since-deleted tweet, including a screen shot of trump's original statement, republican paul gosarpresident. unprecedented fraud requires unprecedented cure." kari lake, who still hasn't conceded to governor katie hobbs, also agreeing with trump. >> president trump is saying we are in unprecedented times and unprecedented measures are necessary. >> "outfront" now, lisa hutchison, republican governor of arkansas. i appreciate your time as always. you know, look. there's been many in your party who have called this out. there have been some who have refused to call the former president out even though they say they're for the constitution. then there is a sitting member of congress and a candidate for governor saying they support it. openly backing the president's call to terminate the const constitution. can you believe that this is in your party? >> it's terrible. and first of all, i really appreciated herschel walker last night in his concession speech said, democracy and the constitution is more important than herschel walker. i thought he gave an incredible statement and i think

it's completely in line with what he's done in the past, including members of his party are doing, paul gosar and marjorie taylor greene, sitting members who spoke this year at a conference for the organization that fuentes founded. and you didn't see the pearl clutching from republicans back then. and even if they are denouncing it now, it doesn't mean that they didn't give those very people a platform in the first place or that members of the party don't regularly traffic in anti-semitism adjacent hyperventilation over george soros and globalism. it all just goes to show how this kind of far right extremism is making a creepy comeback. to the point where the department of homeland security this week published a terrorism advisory bulletin warning about the, quote, persistent and lethal threats to the lgbtq, jewish, and migrant communities from violent extremists inside the united states. now this, as awful as it may be, should not shock people. we have seen this movie before. history doesn't repeat itself, but it sure often does rhyme. we're in a sort of 1930s moment. hate, specifically ant

republican member of of congress named paul gosar from arizona retweeted a video that seemed to be fantasies saying about the murder of of of aoc. you know, obviously as someone who is not particularly liked by people and gosar is ideological circles. but the idea that a member of congress could seem to almost cavalierly threaten the life of another member. gosar was censured by the house and stripped of his committee assignments, but has thus far refused to to resign his seat. it is a reminder that we live in perhaps quite perilous times in terms of the health of our of our democracy. and as the former senate historian -- baker said, we need environment in which legislators not merely speak but are willing to listen to one another. and in an environment in which violence seems to hover over all aspects of political life, the art of political listening is is very difficult to achieve indeed. and with that, hopefully people have some questions. casey, thank you so much. again. fantastic. so question from lynn that we just got she said bravo. so interesting. where were you? and i think it make

we know there's a dozen or two of them, you saw the paul gosar put up a tweet agreeing with the formerhould suspend the constitution. you heard marjorie taylor greene in new york saying if i haddone it, it would have succeed and i would have had weapons. people not taking serious their oath to the constitution and the democracy which it supports. >> i guess at its core, it reeks of political terror. they know they can't win elections. that's why they're so attracted to violence. hypocrisy, you can't get past it. they were sent to congress on the same ballot they think were zapped by italian lasers. can you not snap them out of these moves they were willing to make in service of donald trump? >> you can't. we know that, right? because all of the objections that came in on january 6th even by the way people who are a little smoother like ted cruz, all of these objections came in at a time where there had been litigation all over the place. where there wasn't a single credible shred of information. rudy giuliani was pushing crazy theories and the pillow guy, but there wasn't a shred of ev

well, there are two members of congress, marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar, and both of them haveck fuentes white nationalist conference. they are members in good standing of republicans in congress. there has been too much tolerance and there is always been too much tolerant of anti-semitism. the republican party has a problem where white nationalist are being given far too much accommodating hearing. they are allowed to exist within the party without total condemnation. those are just words. they are not doing anything about it. they are not saying, donald trump disqualified himself and we will not back him under any circumstances going forward. they leave the door open to supporting him because they were afraid of his committed base of support to do not care. and nobody is sure what is going to happen in a republican primary. they think trump is weaker. they want glenn youngkin to run, they want ron desantis to run. nikki haley, i think they hope a lot of people will challenge trump, but they will not take him on directly because they are afraid if he wins, the support and agai

there were official actions taking place based on these messages, which in the case of paul gosar from info wars, a founder with white supremacist ties, and in the case of gosar, a blog, and this is where members of congress were drawing their information. >> hunter, as you went through these text messages, from the asylum wing of the republican party, it struck me in looking through the first batch that you have put out, as you just alluded to, many of the people involved are still members of congress, sitting in the house of representatives. in the rear view mirror, as you look at what they did, they tiptoed up to sedition. they were right there at the gate of sedition. what do they do now? what do they have to say now? >> well, you know, you're making a really important point, mike. and one thing that, you know, people should note is some folks got promotions. we see ted bud, a house member now, moving on to the senate. this guy, john james who was running for office in michigan should lead the challenge there. right? and he, you know, lost a race in 2020, and said the state needed
