and i see the young women in our country today, people like kathy hutchinson and sarah matthews. young women, who when faced with this unbelievable situation when you had a president of the united states attempting to steal an election, and they testified in front of our committee that shows tremendous bravery and courage. i'm so proud of what women have accomplished, and are accomplishing across the country, i want more women to run for office. the last thing i would say about this is, women very often when they come to see me and say, i want to run for office. women will come, and they will say things like i have never fund raised, for i have never done public speaking, or gone door-to-door. a list of things they have never done or don't know how to do. i have never had a single man come to me with a list like that. men don't make a list of what they don't know how to do. so, one really important message for young women is that the men have no idea what they are doing either. it's smart to have a sense of what you need to know and don't know, but you just have to do it. and we

let me play sound from sarah matthews, former deputy white house press secretary under president trump. here is what she said to cnn. >> he had every opportunity to call off the mob and condemn the violence. we've seen from taped testimony from several of my colleagues that folks were pleading with him to do that, and he didn't ever pick up the phone once. i think that the january 6th committee has laid that out. furthermore than just january 6th, he's continued to push the lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him with zero evidence of that. i think that that does pose a threat to our democracy. >> not only does he continue to push that lie, but other candidates he's supporting are doing the same. what are you expecting to hear from the committee today? what will you be looking for? >> they are trying to get into his state of mind. we're supposed to hear more about what's happened with the secret service. i think there was this famous incident where he wanted to go up to the capitol and he was overruled by the secret service. some people have said, well, what authority do they re

think about people who testified in front of our committee like sarah matthews, cassidy hutchinson. these are people that have stood up for the truth. they understand and recognize that in this nation, our institutions do not sustain themselves. they only sustain themselves because individuals do the right thing. every citizen of this country, whether you are elected or not, has an obligation to make sure you are doing everything you can to defend the institutions of our republic. and to recognize what it means to be a nation of laws, not a nation of men. we can all disagree with the rulings of the courts. but none of us can ignore the rulings of the courts. none of -- donald trump did that. 61 out of 62 courts that heard his claims, the claims of his allies, that saw the evidence, ruled against him. the president of the united states has a duty to make sure laws are faithfully executed. i president of the united states cannot ignore the rulings of the court. no citizen can do that. we need to recognize and understand what it means when we say we are a nation of laws. it means no ma
