speier: i certainly would appreciate that if that would be appropriate. i would also like to ask you about the numbers. when it first became apparent that children were being separated, the numbers were indicated to be like 400, 500. and yet within that short timeframe of may to june, you estimate that over 3000 children were separated, and possibly much more over the course of the period in which this was impacting. do you have any numbers you can share with us, any evidence that there was an effort to tamp down the numbers? i.g. horowitz: i have seen reports and numbers largely from the department of homeland security office of inspector general in their work on this, because dhs would be the keeper of what those numbers look like. the numbers we have seen were in excess of 3000 they have reported. i have seen numbers reported as high as in the 5000 range. we will follow up and let you know what we have on that and what we can get from our departments -- from our counterparts. rep. talib: the gentleman from florida, mr. donald -- the represented from fl

delusion that you see from a member of the house armed services community who represented jackie speier who wants to scrub the social media platforms and posts of our soul soldiers looking for right-leaning or conservative thought. they are looking to politicize our military, they are looking to introduce what the old soviet red army had, political commissars, officers checking out your social media posts, this is a very dangerous road that we are taking the military on if we want to try to make it an extension, an ideological extension of progressive socialism. >> laura: the reaction of men and women in uniform today to these new charges, this new focus for the military, what do you think it is? >> i can tell you what i think it is, right here in fort hood texas, we have a chaplain that is under investigation because on his private social media platform he talked about his disagreement with having these people openly serving in the military, he's under investigation, i've talked to parents who are concerned about having their sons and daughters serve in the military not focus to suppor

representatives huffman and speier have been instrumental on this front and i hope that we act. others want no prohibitions at all. but regardless, the rules are the rules, mr. speaker. i thought that was clear. but aparently some of my friends on the other side think differently. some are acting as though by being elected to congress, they have been anointed to some sort of special club, one that gets to pick an choose what rules to follow. a member on the other side ran an ad depicting her walking around our nation's capitol with a loaded firearm tweeting, and i quote, let me tell you why i will carry my glock to congress, end quote. another republican recently bragged that he was armed during the recent riots. a third was stopped by capitol police bringing a gun into this chamber. and i could go on, mr. speaker. we have people in this chamber who have posted disturbing and threatening rhetoric against members of this body. and there's speculation that maybe some members were complicit with those who attacked the capitol on january 6. you know, these words and actions raise se

commission much like the 9/11 commission, and i have actually put together a bill along with jackie speierices committee and has a deep expertise in violent extremism. we have reached out across the aisle and we have a bill along with representatives reed and gab areno, republicans, to have an even split so that we can move forward with the commission that the american public can have faith in. >> it has to be. you know, it's got to be even. it doesn't work any other way. you don't need me to tell you this. you have former members of the 9/11 commission, which was seen as successful, and you had tom kean, former new jersey governor, obviously, republican, and lee hamilton, former u.s. representative from indiana, they both say exactly that. that pelosi can't have this be 7-4. it won't make sense to people. now, is the speaker open to you saying it has to be even, and what is her reason for 7-4? >> well, we have been talking about this for some time, since we conceived of the idea, and jackie and i both talked to the speaker. i think there is a real concern that members of the republican pa

i also had jackie speier, the congresswoman.ed on the crown prince. the chair of the senate foreign relations committee told me he wouldn't meet with the crown prince if he were ever allowed back into the united states for any official meetings. so it highlights the complexity of this administration. the most important question about what's different, what's important about this, two things. one, the transparency of it, and the fact that the united states now has identified several individuals by name. more importantly, putting sanctions against them and limiting their abilities to carry out their state-conducted business. >> yeah, adds you're reporting, it's a direct carryover contrast of a new president, in their view, cleaning up what the previous administration did. here is donald trump on all of that. >> i will say this. i don't know. i don't know. but whether he did or whether he didn't, he denies it vehemently. his father denies it, the king, vehemently. the cia doesn't say they did it. they do point out certain things, a

. >> there is this moment where jackie spear, congresswoman jackie speier recounts her experiences in. she says, i quote, i was thinking, can this be happening? am i going to die in my own country in the sacred capitol of democracy when i survived in the jungles of guyana? you and your colleagues experienced the storming of the capitol. all of you in the building worried about our safety thinking about your families back home and not knowing what was going on outside. do you hope colleague, members of coming, will be called to the trial as witnesses? >> again, i think every single senator is in many ways a witness to what happened. whether they have additional voices from the house or not, i think our impeachment managers will certainly be those voices. but i certainly hope they remember what it was like on january 6th. what they went through. mike pence -- people were trying to kill mike pence and speaker nancy pelosi. it is not that long ago. if they are going to do the right thing they certainly have to act and impeach the president. >> i want to talk about this, i got into a littl

alex jones and roger stone played any role in the attack, and joining me now, congresswoman jackie speiernia. she serves on the oversight, armed services, and intelligence committees. congresswoman, always a pleasure to see you. let's get right to your reaction to your republican colleague steve scalise there. after all that has happened since january 6th, does he honestly not believe donald trump had any role in those attacks? >> you know, they're trying to redesign history. i was amazed in listening to that interview that he could hardly bring himself to say that joe biden was the legitimate president of the united states. >> right? >> let's be clear, this was an attack on our democracy on january 6th. the president of the united states was intimately involved. he spent $50 million of his campaign money. he urged them to come. he have intended to overthrow the election. that was his goal, to somehow persuade either vice president pence or the membership of both houses to overturn the elections in arizona and pennsylvania. >> yeah. >> so it's a disgrace. >> it's funny because i was speak

that is veteran california democratic congresswoman jackie speier. i want to start with a personal question, if you don't mind. hakim jeffries told me last night members of the house who were there, are still because of the video evidence being submitted, still to this day learning exactly how close you all came. i don't know the number of members of congress with bullet wounds in their lives. i imagine most of them are veterans. i know you have. for members of the audience, who may not know, you were shot several times as part of the jones town massacre and thankfully survived. i can't imagine revisiting this kind of trauma in year life. are you indeed still learning how close you all came? >> you know, you're right. we, i think, are recovering, all of us in the gallery that day, but watching the video over the last couple days is bone-chilling. i think we all appreciate that our sense of security being in that capitol, with the capitol police, is not as strong as it once was because of what we have now seen. we came so very close, and i think the f

congresswoman jackie speier was on in the 3:00 p.m.against mbs would have been appropriate. and i hear what you're saying. and obviously i was part of an administration that made all sorts of compromised and people we had to work with. so i'm not saying this in -- in terms of a judgment rendering by this decision. i'm asking about this declaration about moral clarity with our allies and our partners. and i guess, i'm wondering if the line should be on the other side of dismembering a dissident and a washington post journalists and someone who lived in virginia with a bone saw, letting that slide. >> it is an incredibly fair point. and i think what the biden administration is trying to do is they're trying to say, we are elevating human rights, we are going to hold accountable those people who conducted this operation, who conducted it by denying them visas, by freezing assets. i think also just the fact that we're putting on the the record for the entire international community to see is an incredible important showing transparency on

of your former colleagues, some in the gallery and you know them so well, i was talking to jackie speierthe floor and heard the shots, was having a flashback to jonestown guiana and spent years, barely survived that assassination attempt where a congress member she was killed, as a staff member, and she aoc and others, had real traumatic post-trau mat tick stress. >> keep in mind that impeachment managers themselves, some of them were closeted in the gallery on that date and so, you know, not only do we have the scene of the crime, the impeachment managers, both as witnesses and victims and, of course, the senators as jurors, and i think that the reason that you see the impeachment management team, you know, putting together a case that relies on that video evidence, relies on recreating the before, during and after of donald trump's conduct, i think it is unpredictable, frankly, what their response is going to be after 16 hours of hearing this kind of testimony. so i don't want to prejudge what senators will do and like peggy, maybe they will -- i think maybe they will resort to politic
