were meeting for their own republican electors for donald trump. >> those fake republican electors signed forged certificates, purporting to be the real electoral college votes and, in other words, asserting that in fact donald trump had won georgia. those fake certificates were actually mailed to the national archives as though they were official. and it's not like they didn't know they were up to something fishy, no. the trump campaign told the fake electors to operate in, quote, complete secrecy. the washington post obtained an email sent by a trump campaign staffer sent to the fake electors the day before the meeting. in part, it reads, quote, i must ask for your complete discretion in this process. your duties are imperative to ensure the end results -- a win in georgia for president trump -- but will be hampered unless we have complete secrecy and discretion. the email went on to instruct the electors to tell security guards at the building that they had an appointment with one of two state senators. again, quote, please, at no point should you mention anything to do with presidenti

the republican is a well-known republican congressman who won the republican nomination going away, but even in a republican year it is difficult for a republican to win statewide in new york. that appears to be holding true in the gubernatorial contest. in the house race, i guess he was asking about claudia tenney. her district is leaning republican. she is favored for reelection. we have to see what develops. this is very early in the house races, shortly after the new york primary. host: allen in mississippi, republican line. caller: good morning. thank you for taking my call. i would like to comment on the insurrection on january 6. the main question is -- nobody asks the reason why it happened. i would like to comment and say the reason it happened was that people are absolutely fed up with the corruption of the government that are in power at the moment. how can the president of the united states after two years become a millionaire? they all become millionaires, and i would like to say that president trump said in his speech we will march down to the white house peacefully. let m

another run for republicans as pfluger, with another rpi and it is 10-0 republicans.: august pfluger seems to be a part of every angle and this game, whether it is pitching or now, at the plate. george: if we have an mpv vote, pfluger may be up there. candidates, i should stay. george: stu b -- steube will bat for the second time this ending. two away here and it is 10-0. republican fans are chanting. mitch: if greg steube can get a big hit here, he would be another candidate. george: he already is a candidate. mitch: he is in the running, for sure. george: they did throw five innings in three-hit shutout ball, so yes, he is a candidate. mitch: the funny thing is, while he gave up 11 runs last year, he is remembered for his homerun. george: the rabbi angular, stumbles and throws it to second or the out. the democrats come out of the ending but not before the republicans plate five more runs, leading 10-zero. one more shot for the democrats ♪ mitch: [inaudible] george: a lot of work left for the democrats, one last chance, three outs to do so, trailing 10-0 as we go to

you had the republican primary. described dan cox as a whack job. >> qanon whack job. >> qanon whack job. he won and he won decisively with donald trump's endorsement. you obviously didn't endorsed him. what happened? >> well, it was kind of unprecedented collusion between the democratic governors association and donald trump, and both of them were promoting a conspiracy-theory believing nutjob, the guy only spent $100,000 on his campaign. it was a win for the democrats. it's a big loss for the republican party and we have no chance of saving that governor seat. we actually had a chance if they hadn't gotten together and done that. >> let's play a section of what the democratic governors association, one of the ads that ran effectively to promote dan to republican voters. listen to this. >> meet dan cox, donald trump's handpicked candidate for maryland governor. dan cox, too close to trump. too conservative for maryland. >> so, definitely a cynical effort, no question, it arguably worked. he did win, but everything

republicans dial (202)-748-8001. independents, (202)-748-8002 and you can text us at (202)-748-8003 but include your name and city. you can also send a tweet or find us on instagram @cspanwj and facebook.com/c-span. let's start by talking about the monmouth university poll. it was taken earlier in the hearings before the most explosive hearings, for example, the cassidy hutchinson hearing. but of those that have been watching the initial hearings only 6% changed their mind. it said about one in 10 republicans have changed their mind. the same poll asked what people think about american democracy in general. the number of people who thinks the american system is sound has also decreased since the last time the poll was taken. but when it comes to watching the hearing it found 6% overall. we also have another poll that came out recently. the majority of people think former president trump was somewhat responsible for what happened january 6, but they do not believe he will be charged. 57% of americans up from 53% in ja

where some republicans are going to say, other republicans. you've gone too far. we talked earlier about the possibility of term running for election. we're already seeing efforts by his support is to take control of election infrastructure in many states. how extensive is that in your view? it's a real world. it is a real worry and there's a because what donald trump in the end was too clumsy and too gross for the american political system. that what other people have more shrewdly recognized, is that if you manipulate the system a little bit, you can't refuse to count votes once they've been cast. but it's not so difficult to stop the boats from being cast in the 1st place. and it's not too difficult to wait the boat, so some people's will count for more and other people's votes counts, count for less. and the american system has never been as represented as a parliamentary system is. but you can make it more equal as happened between about 960 and about 2005. or you can push the opposite direction as we've been doing since 2005 and now with turbo power since 20

or if you were a republican, take your hat off for a moment and you're a republican. would you be able to make the same statement that you just made and, and politically survive? probably not. i was so impressive about what lives chain in one of my very good friends and congress adkins are you are good for. i do have him. he and i co lead a caucus on syria together and have worked very closely for a number of years now to attempt to change and improve us policy as it relates to the syrian war that's now going on more than a decade and sadly has been forgotten by too many year. so i adam, is someone i like and friends with admire a great deal. and i think one of the, even though the commission or the committee is described as a democratic lead committee, it is in terms of the numbers of the membership. that's by the way because kevin mccarthy rejected putting g o p members on other than the 2 that were appointed by speaker below. so i just wanted to emphasize for our audience, so they get lost the weeds. kevin mccarthy, the republican leader, had an opportunity correct

my republican colleagues are adamant. i am shocked and many of my colleagues are and the american people as well american women today will have fewer rights than their mothers and their grandmothers. we are living through a world where without risking criminal penalties and much of the nation will be at risk of losing these liberties. let me be clear this shouldn't be controversial. it shouldn't be one that provokes on the floor of the y united states senate. griswold versus connecticut has held for decades. it is enshrined in the case law reaffirmed by the supreme court that individuals have the right to use contraceptives. but we've seen after assurances by three of the members now sitting on the supreme court that respect for precedent is no longer deeply felt. in fact it may not be felt at all. what one nominee referred to as president on precedent and therefore well-established law, that was roe v wade and now it's gone. it was in justice alito's words, egregiously wrong. but none of those three nominees expressed an

and in other states that could elect republican governors and republican legislatures who are alreadylotting to steal the next presidential election because the electoral college allows them to steal it. without the electoral college, republican stealing the presidential election would be mathematically impossible. they could never create enough fake votes in states like arizona, or georgia, or pennsylvania, to flip the national vote totals because in california alone, joe biden got 5 million more votes than donald trump. in new york, joe biden got 2 million more votes than donald trump. every other country in the world that is watching donald trump and republicans plot to steal the next presidential election, knows that the only way they can do that is the electoral college. and this is screaming lee obvious other countries because no other country has an electoral college. they look at it in wonder. every element of the criminal conspiracy that donald trump was running in 2020, to try to overturn the outcome of the presidential election, was a manipulation of the electoral college.

christian nationalism is reshaping the republican party. the reason this christian nationalism thing is an awkward fit, the reason it's maybe not an easy path for today's republican party or at least it shouldn't be an easy path for today's republican party to bring this back is because they are not inventing this phrase for the first time, wasn't ear not ignorant to history and we know what it meant the last time, right? christian nationalism is not a new concept. it's not a new american right wing political concept. the reason this ought to be awkward for them to bring this back is because thes last times a country that we tried that on with guys like gerald l.k. smith leading the way. they were really not shy saying exactly what they meant by, it so i'm going to play you a little more gerald l.k. smith here. i apologize in advance for the annoying music coming back but also specifically for the contempt of what you're about to hear him say. >> subversive forced, exploiting sentimental knit wits are reading not, constitution a co of condu

candidates who will make a decision. >> republicans want a crowded republican field. >> look. the point is basically about math and the more candidates get in the easier for donald trump to hit the number he needs and we can have a debate -- >> call it 30%. >> right. the floor and the ceiling are similar for donald trump and if there's 16 candidates in that 30% looks strong and the reality of how the primaries. we spent time in the states. what matters is who's in first place as you keep moving on. it's survivor and advance. he can do that. >> this is giving me flashbacks. will the anti-trump vote coalesce? they want a crowded field at the beginning but will they get the act together to coalesce around a candidate the way they didn't in 2016? not only are the stakes higher but donald trump's appeal is solidified more than in 2016 with the republican primary. >> it is interesting to see the impact of the hearings on trump's standing. from the npr/maris poll. 53% said he deserves great deal or good amount of blame for january 6. shouldn't run for president in 2024. now 32%. what

and republican leaders?the line, republicans shunned him. when nixon and his cronies did watergate, they made him resign. when donald trump incites a violent insurrection, republican leaders say thank you, sir, may i have another? >> this is actually pretty good. the problem that nobody is acknowledging is that this is still donald trump's party so you can have these candidates running giving you policy who run and give you this and that but none of them give you donald trump's base. we just had larry hogan in here but larry hogan's republican nominee replacement is dan cox, who is a nut. you still have donald trump's base, which none of these people bring you and you voted for donald trump twice. i voted for him none. i want donald trump and his element to be indicted. i think this now is on merrick garland and while that is the shift from republicans and democrats because democrats now want merrick garland to take action and whether or not donald trump is indicted, this are people around him -- >> scott, i

democrat versus republican. republican still have a three-point advantage here.erconfident. >> i always want people to be excited about going to the polls. i want to deliver that message and your poll indicates that. there is been a dissipation and support for both sides. democrats and republicans. i think it should be a warning sign for people that are conservatives. the climate has shifted. since the dobbs decision. politics also is a related reality. the second is it really does come down to candidates. i think while the conservative movement has done a good job of helping to recruit some good candidates, but think that is a bit of a frustration across the conservative movement is that there is not a unified set of policies around which a conservative house majority and a conservative senate majority wants to govern. we are trying to keep their feet to the fire on that. it is far more important to be conservative than it is to be a republican. if the republicans were to do that in their house and senate races, you would start to see the american people come ho

is republicans talking about climate. host: they are republicans that do not deny it? guest: the first 10 of the caucuses are that there is climate change and -- republicans are on a continuum of exactly where they are at on this. we agree that this pollution is better than more pollution. less emissions is better than more emissions and we have a responsibility to leave this earth better than we found it. i think we get off track on this climate debate when we demand a litmus test, how much is the climate changing, that tends to start the division. that is how the division starts. i would advocate that we back off that. the litmus test should be, do we want to leave the earth better than we found it? we got to bring republicans and democrats together to talk about this. nothing happens in washington if it is not bipartisan. every once in a while, when it does through reconciliation, it is just one party. it is forever fought by the other party. we have got to come together on this. part of the way we do this is changing the way we talk about this that does not turn pe

luckily, republicans have a solution.y bill allowing greater access to safe and effective contraception act incentivizes manufacturers of contraceptives to file an application for over-the-counter access. it also allows priority review for these applications in ways the fda filing fee. that means cheaper, quicker, and more available access for women across this nation. with my bill, women 18 and over can walk into their local pharmacy, whether that be in sydney, iowa, or the deepest parts of manhattan and get the routine use birth control they need. madam president, when your doctor is 30 miles away and gas is $6 a gallon, you do not need a messaging bill you need access. and therefore, i object. >> objection is heard. >> madam president. i ask unanimous consent of the senate proceed to the immediate consideration s4638 which is at the desk. further that the bill be considered read a third time and lpassed. the motion to reconsider be made and laid upon the table. >> is there objection? >> reserving the right to object to

more than that there are republicans, republican officials and likely republican voters who think whilerump that he's too divisive to run again. and of course there are other republicans who are interested we know in jumping in and i think that's only strengthened by what you're hearing in these hearings but look, donald trump seems intent on getting out there early and saying to republican officials, to the republican party and republican voters, you're either with me or against me. to alex's point, there are real challenges to doing this before the midterms. it's certainly not something that republicans want. i can tell you, based on conversations that i've had in the last 24 hours in the white house, democrats would certainly welcome donald trump getting in early. >> he would really suck up all the energy around the midterms. as alex said the economy, that's what the republicans want to talk about. >> exactly. i was talking a aide. they're stressed because the question is, republicans are probably going to take back a couple of seats coming in the fall, so it's not will republicans w

host: john in halifax, virginia, a republican. caller: i watched for the first time a little bit of a meeting last night and it felt like people said what trump ought to do as opposed to what he was legally required to do. so it is to me another russian collusion situation. the biggest problem with our media and i appreciate the previous caller for bringing it up is the media cannot admit they were wrong in a lot of ways. the only thing i want to say about the commission is we have on record joe biden saying antifa is an idea. emotionally, the word rioters or insurgents is more damaging. financially, antifa has been more damaging to our country. if we were to say that those january 6 rioters were incited by the president to act when a candidate who now becomes president calls a terror organization like antifa, and the media and even c-span doesn't do enough job calling them what they are, doesn't joe biden have some culpability to that as well? thank you for taking my call. guest: that is a big response a lot of republicans have t

our overall congressional vote preference, democrat versus republican in our fox news poll and, for republicanse are these conversations about is the g.o.p. overconfident, could they be -- should they be managing expectations? >> i was want people to be excited about going to the polls, so i want to deliver that message, and your poll indicates that, that there's been a dissipation in support for both sides by both democrats and republicans and i think it out to be a warning sign for people that are conservatives for two reasons, shannon. the first is that the climate has shifted, the political climate has shifted some since the dobbs decision, but politics also is a related reality. but the second is that it really does come down to candidates, and i think that while the conservative movement has done a good job of helping to recruit some good candidates, the thing that still hasn't happened that is a bit of a frustration for us in heritage and across the conservative movement, is that there isn't a unified set of policies around which conservative house majority and a conservative senate majo

republican. caller: right. think he should be and only because anytime you give an inch to a leftist, they end up taking seven miles. it's like dealing with ill-tempered teenagers. if you think rationally, ok, we could have another republican president and be more diplomatic about it, it means nothing to the leftist. you have to go what's true and right and screw them. and trump says it like it is and trump's going to do it and he won it last time. he can win it again even though you think oh, it's going to be difficult. it doesn't matter. we're up against a bunch of crazed marxists. host: did you watch those two speeches from here in washington? caller: i watched part of trump sometimes but he bores the hell out of me. he does speak like a simpleton. i agree he doesn't have any sway. you have a group of us that are so pissed off that we're done being, quote-unquote, tolerant. it's now forced acceptance. we know what's going on. trump's the only man with the balls to make something happen. host: when you hear f

the republicans support this. the democrats added a provision that has nothing to do with veterans healthcare. and it is designed to change government accounting rules so they can have a ha$400 billion spending spree. my amendment will not reduce veteran spend big a time. >> they did get 134 republican votes and you have plenty of republicans still voting for it, it seems like making this seem like a democratic gimmick obscures what is your real point and your life-long interest, which is this is about budgeting. and whether the rules should e tight now or whether as those who defend this bill say allow congress to work in the future to be fiscally responsible. isn't that a more accurate way to think about what you're offering? >> well, loet's be careful here you mischaracterized this when speaking with senator manchin. we're expecting the new expenditures will increase the deficit and we accept that as a price we have to pay for people who served the country. what i'm objecting to is a budgetary gimmick, a slight

republicans blocked us, so we're back today. if the supreme court won't protect a woman's right to make her own health care decisions, if congress can agree to put the protections of roe v. wade into law, then everyone in this chamber has to decide whether they will protect women's health care or not. and that includes making sure women have a right to abortion services, but it includes having reliable access to family planning services. let's start by passing the expanding access to family planning act to protect and expand funding for title 10 clinics, which support maternal health, cancer screening, contraception, and other essential health care. in 2020 alone, get this number, 1.5 million americans received services through title 10. but currently, federal funding is not enough to serve the number of people who need care, and in the wake of the supreme court's ruling attacking the freedom and autonomy of women, it's likely that there will be even more demand in the years ahead. that's why expanding access to family planning

republicans lost those races.they weren't going to make that mistake again. you look now and look at dr. oz in pennsylvania. you look at j.d. vance, and herschel walker and joe biden's approval rating very low in these states and republicans are behind in the polls and getting crushed in fund-raising, so it's not just the extremes when we're talking about the issues. it seems the republican base in these swing states have also selected really extreme candidates and it looks like they'll do it in the arizona senate race, as well. how much does that keep democrats in the game. >> well, this is where you have to make this distinction that we both understand between the house and the senate. the house in the midterm election like this is increasingly a nationalized thing and you see the congressional generic ballot rise and fall on the basis of some of the things that you talk about and there are individual factors in certain house races and not that much. the senate races make their own wind and weather like gubernat

as the republican party hasn't shifted.scalator demonizing immigrants he has really taken the other strategy and yet in 2020 every republican who flipped a democratic house seat was a woman or a person of color. they are touting that as an example. what do you think is behind that? >> i was talking to a republican consultant this week who says look at the recruiting this time, too, in midterms. they have found candidates who are people of color, women. who in certainly not in terms of policy but in terms of demographics look like the candidates who were recent democrat candidates. we have talked about that demographics are destiny but it's shifting and the biggest dividen line is college education. >> that idea of geographic as destiny is something that you popularized, roy. >> let me clarify. we never said demographics is destiny but there's changes in voters. it was a big group of changes. plus we always argued very specifically republicans had to retain a core of support and if they couldn't then the math didn't work for

very large percentage of it vote against the republicans heard -- republicans.ave a pleasant day. host: thank you. from stephen in michigan, he says i'm an absentee voter, i have to go to my polling place in advance to prove my citizenship in order to get a ballot sent to me. then he says i see no fraud. you can text us at 202-748-8003. another michigander from rapid city, this is jeff. republican line, you are next up. caller: good morning america. c-span communists spreading copper -- propaganda ad nausea him. this is another edition. you had that woman on from michigan who claimed outright that there was no fraud in michigan. everything is great but she doesn't bring up in 2018 the only reason her and the rest of the soros girls took over michigan was because they put legal weed on the ballot and to vote that night at 6:45 it looked like a grateful dead reunion tour. host: you're saying a lot there we are asking about changes in the electoral systems would you advocate for changes? caller: you no one -- you no one. -- know what. i want to know why i can't cri

it happened because republican senators and a republican president, five out of the six supreme court justice were part of this majority decision were appointed by a president who did not win the popular vote. we need to elect democrats to the senate so we can fix this problem. leigh ann: i want to ask about that specifically. you mentioned some of the justices appointed by president who didn't win the popular vote. perhaps you and other democrats in the senate, are you discussing changing the process of confirming a supreme court justice? sen. smith: i'm talking about the need for broad democratic reform here starting with reforming the filibuster, the rules of the senate so that a minority in the united states senate cannot stop us from putting into place laws that the vast majority of americans want. the protections of roe v. wade are broadly popular in this country in the united states senate is unable to act on that because of senate rules. i'm talking about that and looking at reforming the electoral college or at least having some sort of law around a national topic so presiden

the problem is that republicans believe across the country, republicans believe in washington, republicans believe in state legislatures that 18-year-old crack pots should have more firepower than police officers. >> should have the right to have a weapon of war. >> absolutely. >> you stand with the shooter when you hold that position. it is simple. look at the video, as well, and see if you really feel that way. on abortion, do most of these republicans, would that apply to their daughters? >> no, of course not. >> of course not. >>> the house select committee -- and this is on the insurrectionist angle of it -- is holding what could be its final public hearing. thursday at 8:00 p.m. in primetime, the panel will give a detailed account of what took place inside the white house while president trump's supporters stormed the capitol. lawmakers are specifically looking at the 187 minutes between trump's stop the steal rally on the ellipse and when he finally tweeted out a video telling his supporters that he loved them and to go home. meanwhile, the january 6th committee says it is hoping to

. >> what do republicans have to say? >> the republicans offered a bit of a muted response. many not defending donald trump's actions, not yet criticizing what the justice department is doing, taking a wait and see approach. one of those republicans, lindsey graham of south carolina, who told me earlier today that he does not think that trump should be prosecuted. >> that's just ridiculous for me to comment over what some grand jury may be looking at. i don't see anything to prosecute him over. >> now, graham himself has come under scrutiny for phone calls he made to the georgia secretary of state in the aftermath of the november 2020 elections. the georgia prosecutor looking into donald trump's actions, has asked for graham to come before the grand jury and testify there. graham himself has said that he will not do that, he's trying to fight that subpoena. nevertheless, you're hearing some defense from republicans but most are saying they're going to take a wait and see approach. >> maanu raju, thank you so muc. >> federal prosecutors have obtained a warrant to search the c
