i am a proud boy. i'm a proud boy.o learn about who the proud boys were, were probably a little bit before donald trump mentioned them at the presidential debates in september 2020. are you willing tonight to condemn white supremacists and militia groups and to say that they need to stand down? give me a name. white supremacists. who would you like me to condemn? the proud boys? stand back and stand by. chanting: donald trump! before the debate stage mention, we had 22,000 proud boys worldwide. give or take. 12,000 of them residing here in the united states, the other ones residing abroad. and it's not hard to see that our numbers have been doubled since then. after the presidential election in 2020, the proud boys started to protest across the country, supporting donald trump's baseless claim that the election was stolen. they set themselves up as an informal army for the former president. i can't tell you if the election was stolen or not. i can't. and that's a problem. those people that think that the election are s

for proud boys, around 33% supported the proud boys and endorsed critical violence. you can look and say 18% of veterans supported the violence so how many supported proud boys ? when you look at it that way, it is less than 10%. on the one hand, that is may be good news because you do not see a lot but also, it makes us wonder for the 15% which is pretty high who do not support a group right now or maybe support a group we did not measure or is this kind of a focus ready to be a part of a group that does not exist yet? we know extremism is evolving rapidly compared to previously. and is much more specific to membership than it had been in previous decades. todd hinted at this. the veteran population in the u.s. is demographically very different than the rest of the u.s. population. on the one hand, the military has been the great emigrate or. but it is different. veterans are in the u.s. on average tend to be older and more likely or predominantly male. this means we are comparing veterans and the overall u.s. population. and they both represent samples of each but

.- my name is enrique tarrio, and i am the international chairman of the proud boys.? our streets! 0njanuary 6th, 2021, a mob of protesters stormed the us capitol. more than 1,000 people are facing charges. the most notorious is enrique tarrio. he's banned from everything. he's the most banned person in the world. tarrio was the leader of a right—wing extremist group. he stands accused of trying to overthrow the us government. well, the proud boys were central because they were ready and willing to fight. whose streets? our streets! so was tarrio the puppet master, or something else? i think he was kind of nerdy when he was younger. all of a sudden with proud boys, he was the fonz. i think he's very interested in his image. i think he might be a charlatan, to be perfectly honest.

well, the proud boys were central because they were ready and willing to fight.e was younger. all of a sudden with proud boys, he was the fonz. i think he's very interested in his image. i think he might be a charlatan, to be perfectly honest. tarrio is loved and loathed in equal measure. can you hear it? can you hear this? suourme their entire stupid | message has become about me and i could not be any happier.

well, the proud boys were central because they were ready and willing to fight.

>> he was not an fbi agent. >> he was the leader of the proud boys. what happened on january 6th is that donald trump's supporters showed up because he told them to. they marched to the capital because he told him to. he tapped the capital because he told him to stop the steal. that is the truth and that is how history is going to record it. thank you for prosecuting those who attacked our nation's capital. i yield back. >> the gentleman you'll spectrum the chair recognizes the gentleman from south carolina. >> thank you mr. chairman. i have a slide appear and i'll start. in october or march of 2022, mr. weiss was denied the ability to bring charges against hunter biden and the district of columbia. in april of that same year, you testified before the senate appropriations committee that mr. weiss was free to run the investigation without interference from the doj. according to the irs whistleblower, there was a meeting in october of 2022 where mr. weiss that he was not the deciding official on whether charges were filed and we know that because we ha

you know, a couple weeks earlier, he's saying stand back and stand by to the proud boys. are you going to write a memo that says what the president is doing as a danger to national security? you know, get ready to get called in the congress for that one. right. like, if you write about january six being this looming threat and the president's organizing this and really pushing this and really motivating a lot of people to violence, that's just really going to i mean, that's going to backfire on you very quickly. so you have to talk about this all speculatively and with the sort of both sides is and that doesn't exist just like the one moment that really crystallized it for me is last year, the january six committee was questioning this top fbi intelligence official with the washington field office and saying, you know, they're talking about, jane, about the december 19th tweet from trump will be wild. that obviously inspired a lot of this really got people moving. and you know, she conceded that yeah as it got closer to january six, we saw a lot more heated rhetoric. and

the proud boys have not been designated by the way of terrorists. great crimes beating up neo nazis walking into an event with flags and taking part of the january 6th riot. how sonny hostin can compare them to those who pitcher children and rape women is beyond me. >> will: it's pretty explainable. stupidity. it's so bad you can't hold a moment of silence for israeli victims without push january. this is from fairfax county school board in virginia. >> during tonight's moment of silence many of our members would like to share our care and concern for the victims loved ones and our entire jewish community. >> i wasn't expecting what seemed to be a sneak attack so it's disappointing my colleagues would that behind me back but we sympathize and human eyes the side that looks like us. as the old adage goes, no justice no peace. >> will: raymond? >> that's abra omis. she opposed a commemoration of the 9/11 victims. her father ran the movk of falls church where the 9/11 hijackers attended. so why she would say this again condoning this sort of violence a

throws a lot of red meat out to these organizations out there, these white nationalist groups and proud boys and oath keepers, the sorts of people who strap on ar-15's and go parading up and down the aisles at walmart because they can, these people are salivating over the prospect of another civil war. i really think you want to tone down the rhetoric when it comes to talking about how our government has somehow been weaponized against the american people because it's just driving those right-wing militia groups into a frenzy. host: we will take that point. guest: congressman? guest: i don't agree with any of those so-called white nationalist. i don't actually know any of them. i'm a gun owner, obviously. as far as weaponization, i don't get into those conversations. that's what people do to sell memberships on both sides. it's unfortunate we cannot sit down and talk about issues. caller: good morning. i would like to represent the folks into are saying that both sides of the party to what happened with the speaker, but without the democrats pushing the agenda, or the c.r., say it is note ob

. >> in fact, he was a member of the proud boys. in court, he stated, quote, they saw themselves as donald trump's army fighting to keep their leader in power no matter what the law had to say about it. on september 4th, joe biggs stated he is confident trump will pardon him. he said, quote, we went there like he asked. stewart rhodes was sentenced to 18 years in prison for the attack on the nation's capitol. have you seen any shred of evidence that stewart rhodes was an fbi agent? >> no. >> in fact, he was one of the founders of the oath keepers and an ricoh tutorial was sentenced to 22 years for the attack on the nation's capitol. have you seen any evidence he was an fbi agent? >> he was not an fbi agent. >> in fact, he was the leader of the proud boys. on january 6th, donald trump supporter showed up because he told them to. he marched the capitol because he told them to. that is the truth and that is how history is going to be recorded. thank you for prosecuting those who attacked our nation's capitol. >> the chair recognizes th

attorney conor munro stated about joe biggs and the proud boys in court. he stated "they saw themselves as donald trump's army. fighting to keep their preferred leader in power no matter what the law of the course had to say about it. and on september 4th, joe biggs stated that he is confident trump will pardon him. he said "i know he will pardon us. we are his supporters and we went there like he asked. now we would like to talk about the case of stella rose sentenced to 18 years in prison. have you seen any shred of evidence that stewart rhodes was an fbi agent? >> no. >> they also asked you about -- have you seen any evidence that henrique -- was an fbi agent? >> he was not an fbi agent. >> in fact he was the leader of the proud boys. what happened is that donald trump supporters showed up because he told them to. they marched to the capitol because they told them to. that is the truth and that is how history will record it. thank you for prosecuting those who attacked our nation's capitol. >> the chair now wrecked sizes the gentleman from south carolin

that stands for proud boys, insurrectionists, and oath keepers. here is my question. you have republicans calling in. they wonder why the democrats do not vote and help the republicans to elect a speaker. we tried to deal with a speaker named mccarthy, but he lied and it a lot of things -- would you please tell the people why we would not vote on a republican congressman that is maga? guest: i think the caller raises an important point, that democrats were already hesitant to work with mccarthy and republicans while mccarthy was speaker and now you arguably have a more controversial speaker candidate who is looking likely that he might be able to pull this off. that will not do much to help with any bipartisan efforts here. we will have to see. johnson is no jim jordan. he has not been as outspoken in his defense of former president trump. he is a little more measured and his lawyer experience comes out for sure, but given his experience and involvement in the 2020 election questioning, that is going to make it difficult for some democrats want to work with him and re

we know he talked to roger stone who was up on the capitol steps with the proud boys and the oathkeepersht be able to put evidence out there that donald trump knew beforehand that there would be violence on the capitol steps. he is an extremely important witness. he was in the room at the time. he knew what was going on. i know there are reports in abc about what he may have said, but we're not going to really know the import of that testimony until we actually hear him testify at the trial. >> one of the things he reportedly said according to abc news was that he, mark meadows, never believed that the election was stolen and told trump repeatedly that that was the case. however, mark meadows wrote a book. mark meadows wrote a book where he says the opposite or basically, where he says things that are different than what abc news is reporting under oath. how much does that matter? >> it matters to the extent that when he's at trial he'll be cross examined extensively on his prior inconsistent statements and what he's going to say are lies. the problem that the defense is going to have he

[sound of explosions] >> todd: explosions rocking gaza as israel steps up the war against hamas. troops ahead of an expected ground invasion. they are attacking territory in lebanon after hezbollah took responsibility for an anti-tank missile attack. >> carley: trey yingst is along the border with the latest. >> trey: since we spoke, there is more fire and interception over

government -- >> and the national security minister -- >> and the americans they have two guys like the proud boys in 2015 and making one of them the secretary of treasury and the other the secretary of treasury and totally irresponsible people, and so the opposition would make it quite clear that they would not participate in winning this war, and only crazy ideas. >> and so, now, likely, they would have said that we will get into the unity government and that important for the israeli public, but we don't want to see those two character involved? >> so, it is probably what is going to happen is that basically they don't trust netanyahu after the three year, and no one trust him really. i don't think in front of cnn, i should discuss this. >> and just to ghost this, these are the multiple attacks into gaza by the israeli defense forces pounding this small congested gaza strip at this point at 5:00 in the morning. as you are sitting here e hehud and you can see what is going on, what is going through your mind? >> possibly stronger, but the influence is going to be the organization to organization

he refused to criticize the proud boys, in important part of the insurrection on january 6 in a presidential debate. and told them to stand back and stand by. >> stanback and stand by. >> leading up to january 6, he praised the trump train, which is a group of trucks that intimidated and force biting campaign workers off the highway in texas. he tweeted, i love texas with this video. >> 3, 2, 1, go. >> he deliberately praised his supporters that used violent techniques to intimidate political opponents, again leading up to january 60 used violent and inflammatory rhetoric. he claimed that if it happened to someone else they would consider it an act of war and fight to the death. right before january 6 he started threatening lawmakers with a crowd he assembled. on the afternoon of january for he said, washington was being inundated with people. our country has had enough, they won't take it anymore. he got even more bold a few moments later when he said, i hope the democrats, and even more importantly, the week and ineffective rino republican party are looking at the thousands of people pouri

. >>> elsewhere the department of justice is appealing the sentences of five members of the proud boys militia group who were convicted in the wake of the january 6th insurrection. the appeals include the group's former leader, enrique tarrio, i three others found guilty of seditious conspiracy. many of the final sentences fell far below what prosecutors had requested. according to the hill the move falls in line with the way the doj handled other seditious conspiracy cases including sentens handed down from members of the oath keepers with prosecutors like wise appealing the sentences for members of that far right militia group. >>> still ahead we'll turn to sports and highlights from a truly terrific night of playoff baseball. two excellent games. >>> plus, a recap of monday night football, and that one went right down to the wire. that's all straight ahead. went right down to the wire. that's all straight ahead.

including former proud boys chairman enrique tarrio, who received the longest sentence for his role, 22 years. prosecutors had requested a 33-year sentence for tarrio. more than 1100 people have faced criminal charges for the attack on the capitol or efforts to overthrow the election leading up to january 6th. including donald trump himself. so there is every reason that congressman jim jordan should receive the same amount of scrutiny. the final report from the january 6th committee states unequivocally, representative jordan was a significant player in president trump's efforts, the list of his transgressions is exhaustive. he led a conference call with donald trump and other members of congress about delaying the electoral vote proceedings. and the day before the attack, jordan texted white house chief of staff mark meadows about how vice president mike pence could reject electoral votes. jordan also spoke with trump by phone at least twice on january 6th but has never given a straight answer about it. >> did you talk to the former president that day? >> i talked to the former pre

we're very proud of the boys but there is a very good mood that could pass right now.er a flawles start, the san francisco 49ers have now lost two games in a row in the nfl, beaten 22—17 by the minnesota vikings on monday night. 49ers running back christian mccaffrey made history in the first half, scoring a touchdown for an nfl record 16th straight game, but san francisco were always playing from behind. vikings wide receiverjordan addison scored twice himself, including one on a 60—yard play. minnesota improve to three and four on the season, while the 49ers are five and two. the new nba season will start with the denver nuggets as defending champions for the first time. and their opening game against the team they swept aside to reach the finals earlier this year... the la la kers. and after an offseason of celebrating... it's time for denver to get back to work. it's hard to be a team that can repeat. the biggest challenge we haveis repeat. the biggest challenge we have is that we have gone from being a team that was haunted by the teams in front of us to now where
