just for the record, previously we've reported at cnn another rick perry text.ed that it was his phone. cnn has confirmed from multiple sources, friends and colleagues of his that that is his phone number these texts were coming from in fact, these texts on the meadows log show that he signed his name and his telephone number at the end of -- of the text >> seth: i think if you're going to pitch ideas for a coup, then lie about it, maybe don't sign your text messages with your name and phone number. [ laughter ] did he also send a follow-up text that said, "there's a lot of rick perry's out there, so here's a pic of me sending this text." [ laughter ] i will say, if you've ever texted with an older person, like a parent or an in-law, you've probably witnessed the same behavior. they all sign their text messages with their names like they're writing civil war letters home [ historical music playing ] "dear clarabelle i hope this missive finds you well i write to relay the most unfortunate news i regret to inform you, i have been searching in vain for well-priced

rick perry signing his name on the texts and his phone number is interesting also. the other thing we should just note, you mentioned so importantly that open question of what trump is doing all this time. he doesn't -- he -- the former president, still to this day, as far as we know, does not text. so all of these people were getting to mark meadows, including donald trump's own son, because they knew that was the only way to reach him. to reach the president. >> right. so there are no donald trump president texts here. it's also interesting some other people who are not here, but remember, this is what the committee has obtained, not everything. meadows is fighting. he's withholding things. so i think one of the interesting things has to do with the fact that someone like rathensberger, the secretary of state of ja ja does not respond. meadows reaches out. no answer. >> that's interesting. a good tease. we're going to talk a lot more about that later in the show. as always, fantastic reporting. jam jamie, thank you. >> we are going to talk about that. also a new e

but then today cnn got ahold of the complete message and it is actually signed rick perry. yeah.now what is worse. the fact that he was part of an insurrection or the fact that he signed his text message. that is such an old person thing to do. st like when my grandfather brought a bigger tv because he theut it would fits more channels in it. so look, obviously something happened to rick's memory too. but as worried as i am for those guys, people, i'm really concerned about marjorie taylor greene. congresswoman from georgia and soccer mom whose definitely slashed the other team's bus tires. you see, a few of her constituents filed a lawsuit to disqualify her from congress based op her role january 6th. apparently there is something in the constitution that says you cannot run for office if you do an insurrection against the government. you know how people are crazy ideas back then. and now look, we all know it is probably not going to look but marjorie taylor greene was still forced to tech at a hearing on friday and it looks like nobody has been hit harder by january 6th amnesia

if you all remember that at one point they wanted to go after rick perry when he was the governor of texas. these are all prosecution , by the way, that were eitheron in part or in total dramaticwh overreach. and it always seems to go one way. where's the equivalent on the other side that is just off the top of my head. meanwhile, people who shootpl a lot of people get let out on bail because they're notn a danger 25 grand there's a shooting nine people shot in a shopping mall and there's only a gun charge and twenty five grand in these out. >> i mean, how can that be? we've seen the progressive prosecutors have taken the opinion in city after city at this point that if they're only honestly softer, more gentle on violent crime across the board, let them out sooner from either a sentence, let them out right away with catch and release bail reform laws that somehow this will improve the community that we'vetionsns seen talked about a bit more now in the aftermath of the blm protests and riots. that hasn't worked at all. they have to admit now across the country the crime rate has gone
