i just spoke to jamie raskin who said our fight for democracy is not over despite the fact that hakeemeffries said in congress we accept the results of congress and there are no election die national hurricane center on his side of the conference, the fight for democracy is still there. >> very much so. here is the thing, you can't unring that bell. so what we saw was an attack on our government, on the government that represents all americans that we agree to abide by under the pact that unites us, the constitution. that was an attack on the government, an attack on the election and as you suggest, ali, we were still in shock the next morning. you can't unring that bell, meaning people saw that happen, and then it becomes in a sense part of a repertoire of dissent. it shouldn't be, and one way that it wouldn't be is if people were being held accountable for that crime. because that's what it was. it wasn't peaceful dissent, it was an attempt to overturn an election. so what we see now when we see donald trump and his supporters celebrating that moment, denying that it was an attempt t

and the democratic congressman, jamie raskin, joins me now. he was a member of the january 6th committee which investigated the attack on capitol hill. so of course, you are the recipient of one of those pardons. senator mullin takes issue with. you also are the top democrat on the judiciary committee. so, senator raskin, i appreciate your time. you heard senator mullin's response to this. he calls it a riot. he's obviously upset about what happened that day. he doesn't mince words about it, but he is defending the pardons, the blanket pardons given to violent and nonviolent offenders by president trump yeah, well. >> look. >> people are. giving pardons, as the senator. >> points out. under the. >> basically unlimited executive discretion of the president. >> but the question. >> is why pardons have. >> generally been. >> used when people are actually innocent or there was some procedural miscarriage of justice. and nobody's claiming that these people were innocent. we've got them on tape, you know, hitting the police officers over the head wi

one of those members, democratic congressman jamie raskin. thank you so much for joining us this morning. first off the bat, is there any indication the suspect acted as a lone wolf? and from what the fbi told you? >> well, you know, they're just developing the facts now. >> so they wanted to caution everybody, you know, not to jump to conclusions. but right now, they do not have evidence that this was connected to the incident in las vegas, or that he was working with anyone else at the time. but it's very possible that, you know, new information surfaces in the hours and days to come. >> do they have information that he set the bombs himself before using his truck in the attack? >> i don't think that they've made any definitive conclusion about that. but again, the evidence that they've got now suggests that he was acting alone. but again, that's possibly to be supplemented with new evidence. if anything or anybody comes forward within the next, you know, several hours or days. >> and what else can you tell us about his his ties to i.s.i.s.

congressman jamie raskin, a democrat as you well know, called today a very tough pill to swallow. as someone who put so much effort like you into the january 6th probe, how did you feel certifying trump's election win today? >> well, thank you for having me, first of all, wolf. i think what the public saw today was how this process is supposed to work. we have elections. elections have consequences. but at the end of the day, when you go into court, when you have recounts and you still lost, you go forward. in this particular instance, kamala harris lost. what we did as democrats, we supported the process. that's how it's supposed to work. so, others who had a different idea four years ago, they created a problem. it takes democrats to show republicans how to get it done. >> kamala harris, the vice president of the united states, and the president of the senate, according to the constitution, she oversaw the certification today and did it very, very cordially without any accusations or any problems at all. as you know, congressman, president- elect trump is accusing president bide

i not only served on the january 6th committee with jamie raskin but i stood right behind him on theall of this happened. which, by the way, was a couple days after he buried his son. so i think a lot of us just have reflections and thoughts about that day and how it transpired and how unfortunate it is. but the american public saw that today, how normal it should be. it was only unprecedented because the former president asked his supporters and followers to come to washington, d.c. and to disrupt our proceedings. >> well, and with enrique tarrio being one of the -- he is the longest- sentenced january 6th defendant, or convicted person. if he gets a pardon, what is the impact of that in your view? >> i think it's incredibly chilling. i think what it would say is the incoming president and his republican supporters don't support the rule of law. that's what it says. you can't walk around and say you support law enforcement and then give a pardon to somebody who does this, who leads an active conspiracy to overthrow the government. that's exactly what was at stake. we interviewed enr

democratic congressman jamie raskin.an, first, let me get your reaction tonight to what we saw happening in the oval office with president trump taking one of his first steps to pardon everyone who was convicted of a crime related to january 6th with the exception of 14 people that he made clear are still on the table. >> well, why were they being pardoned? that's my question. in other words, were they innocent? nobody is asserting that. were they denied due process? no one is asserting that. so, are they reformed and rehabilitated and no longer a threat to democracy, no longer a threat to society? or are they being pardoned simply because they were the willing political foot soldiers for donald trump when he incited an insurrection against the government? so, i think the poles are showing 60 or 62% of the people reject the pardons of people who engaged in violence against police officers and stormed the capitol and tried to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power and succeeded in blockading the peaceful transfer o

you just heard top democrat jamie raskin saying he's not sure what biden did was aboveboard.that you're allowed to do that and senator chris murphy is saying maybe this is wrong too. >> well the constitution gives broad authority, broad clemency authority to the president. i will tell you that rather than helping these individuals face the accountability they so richly do, this is more akin to out in the battlefield whether you're in afghanistan or somewhere in south asia where you use an electronic marker to identify the particular target that you want to reach. these actual pardons tell us that as family members have engaged in crime, tell us there were criminals that were occurring on the j-6 committee. this makes it easier to find out and thanks to the, excuse me, the 1916 supreme court ruling. they have no choice but to either reject the pardon or accept it. liz: let me just be clear. the u.s. constitution says nothing about pardoning future offenses. the word future, wait, wait, wait. >> you're right. liz: the word future is not in there. it just says offenses. it doesn

maryland democratic congressman jamie raskin says expanding the detention requirement to include those accused of theft could sweep up innocent people. this allows us to get up demonize immigrants without doing anything to fix the immigration system. but wisconsin republican congressman derrick van orden says the government needs to first protect its citizens. he recounted crimes in his own state. he says this bill could have prevented. none of this would have taken place if this person was detained deported for simple property crime. >> enough, the bill also let federal agencies for failing to enforce immigration laws. some democrats argued states don't have standing to do that. this provision is almost certainly unconstitutional. the bill now heads to the republican controlled senate. john thune wants to move that bill as early as this week in washington. i'm maddie beer-temple. >> all right. let's talk weather as we take a live look outside over san francisco city hall lit up in yellow the night before mayor-elect daniel lurie is sworn in. >> yeah, beautiful shot there. you almost f
