and frankly, by william barr and jeffrey rosen and his other appointees. the way that this president and this administration messed with justice, the way they messed with the rule of law, all these things that are not at all resolved as president biden now takes over and installs his own appointees in the justice department and beyond, i mean, beyond just president trump himself being in trouble, it's all the ways his administration weaponized the administration of justice for trump's purposes. all of that remains to be unwound, and all of those issues, almost all of them still remain live. take that issue i just mentioned. about the new york investigations of president trump into his financial dealings, potential insurance fraud, potential bank fraud, potential tax fraud. that is one of the cases where president trump got the u.s. justice department to act on his behalf. to wade into that case on his behalf. it wasn't just one of the clown cars full of trump personal lawyers arguing on his behalf, all these lawyers who never seem to get paid and fall by t

there was even questions with william barr of whether he thought it consisted. he talked about white supremacist at the heart of the insurrection as well as other things and talking about the role of the political independence and the role with the press. he understands quite well that that insurrection was about an attack on separation of power as well and that shows you about how invested he is as a nominee of restoring my alma mater at the department of justice. >> absolutely. elly, i would like to get yu take. as laura just said, he said directly in his opening statement, that january 6 was a heinous act that sought to disrupt a corner stone of our democracy. everyone mostly everyone does and everyone should agree with that. hearing that from him right out of the gate was absolutely comforting. >> yeah, it was, kate. and also i thought it was important when it was senator whitehouse asked judge garland, will you investigate the january 6 riots up the chain. will you look at who else who was involved beyond those who went into the capitol and he said he would

actions of republicans like mike pence, government officials, even attorney general at the time william barr, and the georgia election officials, and their role in upholding the election. and the message was, you, too, can do the right thing. they said mike pence did the right thing. he was a patriot. do you think that made for an effective argument? >> yeah, i actually did think it was effective. i thought one of the things representative swalwell said, first, there were a lot of people at the rally who weren't involved in the insurrection. and we should separate those two groups and then they separated out mike pence from donald trump. and say, look, this is a conservative, with whom we disagree on a lot of things. but at the end of the day, we all take this oath to the united states government to protect, and mike pence did the right thing, and donald trump did not and so i thought it was effective. and one of the other things that was effective was, the house impeachment managers, they weren't telling people the conclusion to draw. they were telling them and showing them the facts. they

talking about how terrible it would be if the justice system were politicized after attorney general william barr hands in the time of justice over and over again. we can talk about how he interpreted the mueller report, the sentencing and so on. but lights et's put that aside e we know irony is dead, and let's look at how he handled this criticism of the justice department. what he said clearly is the president of the united states determines policy. i work for the president. my job as attorney general is to tell the president whether what he wants to do is, in fact, in keeping with the law or not. it's his job to talk about the law. it's the president's job to talk about policy. >> and he, carrie, was speaking to senator feinstein and he emphatically said he works in the public's interest and not the president's interest. what do you think the doj is going to look like under merrick garland? >> i think he is going to spend every day working to do right by the law and to bring honor to the department and to restore the honor that is the department that was his experience from being a line prosec

he will talk to john durham who was tasked by william barr to look into the origins of the fbi investigation of the trump campaign. he will see what more he needs to continue. he says he's assured that president biden will not interfere with with the justice department's investigation which barr opened into the tax issues with hunter biden. couple of other things. he said the administration will pause the federal death penalty. in the closing months of the trump administration, it was resumed but there are a will the of questions about it. legal questions especially in terms of fairness of who gets the death penalty. he says that he called the child separation program of trump administration shameful. he said i can't think of anything worse. he also doesn't support defunding the police but he did say the justice department has an obligation under federal law to resume the pattern and practice investigations that were sort of a hallmark of the obama administration but the two attorneys general who succeeded eric holder both jeff sessions and bill barr were very much scaled that back. he said

he is going to basically demand 100% submission as he did with william barr and vice president penceis going to turn on you. is that the kind of future political career you want -- amy: just to be clear, you need two votes. one is to convict, 67 senators needed, and the others to stop him from running for federal office and you just do the majority -- which they already have with the democrats. >> that's right. that's right. so what is the rush? the rush partly is due to a routine most americans don't know about. the congress works, to most, three days a week when they are not in long recesses. three days a week. a lot of them fly in tuesday morning and fly back thursday afternoon or evening. that is one reason they don't have congressional hearings and oversight of executive branch. they don't work monday or friday. they treasure their short work week. it has become a habit. there is no reason why they can't work five, even six days. this is one of the most important trials in american history. this is a trial for the future of our constitution, for whether we are going have a monar

the "times" reports donald trump was dissatisfied with attorney general william barr before the election because the attorney general resisted donald trump's, quote, "idea to end birthright citizenship in a legally dubious pre-election executive order." republican reaction varied from senate leader mitch mcconnell saying the president had a right to pursue his legal options but never saying anything like the election was stolen to house republican leader kevin mccarthy, saying on fox, "everyone who's listening, do not be quiet, do not be silent about this. we cannot allow this to happen before our very eyes." and senator lindsey graham saying on fox, "they can all go to hell as far as i'm concerned. i've had it with these people. let's fight back. we lose elections because they cheat us." the "times" has new information on trump repeatedly urging attorney general barr to launch investigations, quote, "for weeks mr. trump had been peppering him with tips of fraud that upon investigation by federal authorities proved baseless. after the president complained to fox that the justice departme

to sort out when he is confirmed as the nation's next attorney general is why his predecessor, william barrrsonally spent weeks leaning on prosecutors at sdny to try to get them to go easy on that case, and then barr ultimately fired the u.s. attorney in charge of that office. merrick garland is going to have to sort that out. the solution to that can't be, don't do it again. the solution for that has to be accountability for hose who abused the justice department and the justice process in ways that were designed to shield the president from accountability if that is, in fact, what happened there. but what's happened here, what the supreme court set in motion today is something that does not involve federal prosecutors in that whole sdny mess. these are state prosecutors, and their case is moving forward and there really is now, as the times puts it today, the startling prospect of a criminal trial of a former u.s. president. we, the public, will not get to see these millions of pages that are getting handed over now. we won't see them unless and until there are criminal charges filed in t

and the message was amplified by attorney general william barr and trump's top homeland security officials who translated it into a shift in criminal justice and national security priorities. trump's efforts to focus his administration on leftist groups did not stop the justice department and fbi from pursuing cases of right-wing extremism. officials say that the effect of his direction was, nonetheless, substantial. they have a surprising amount of discretion when it comes to this kind of thing. >>> and democratic congresswoman cori bush of missouri announced on friday that she is moving her congressional office away from congresswoman marjorie taylor greene's after a heated exchange where bush confronted the georgia republican about not wearing a mask in a hallway on capitol hill. bush tweeted, "a maskless marjorie taylor greene and her staff berated me in a hallway. she targeted me and others on social media. i'm moving my office away from hers for my team's safety." greene responded on twitter, posting a portion of a video that she claims is of the incident and said that, in fact, the

and i don't know what he thinks he's presiding over, but it will not, i guarantee william barr this, be a quiet surrender of this constitutional republic. >> your view of however normalized that has become, what kind of breach that is to have people who at least claim to be somehow a part of the so-called fourth estate talking about observing elections as if that is a surrender. i mean, that's some of the language that fomented and surrounded the insurrection. >> look, i don't think that we should have any nostalgia for a time when fox news was an honest and decent news organization. you know, if you lived through the clinton scandals, if you lived through their innuendos about bill and hillary clinton murdering vince foster, then i don't think that what we really have is a -- it's maybe a difference in degree but not a difference in kind. and a really telling -- >> did i sound too nostalgic? you know, i get emotional, michelle. >> i do think that there's always a tendency to look around and say oh, well, a previous generation of conservatives didn't even go this far. and it's true.

he should have been fired by donald trump and william barr.den wants to make an honest effort to get people to believe in america's federal law enforcement agency, mr. wray has to go. but as you say, this is a very big problem. the fact that at least half of america, republicans, conservatives, are not going to have faith in the fbi is an enormous issue. as for representative swalwell, i mean, another institution we don't have faith in right now is the democratic-run house intelligence committee. has nothing to do with intelligence for many years now and the idea that swalwell is still on that committee is part of the democrats' -- nancy pelosi's upside down universe. it's bizarre world where nothing makes sense. here's a man who was compromised by a chinese spy and he's sitting on the house intelligence committee? none of this makes any sense. maria: well, it does, because it's all coordinated. it's a stick in the eye for anybody who was talking about his ties to china and fang fang, this spy that he was obviously romantically involved with.

at the president's direction attorney general william barr a loyal member of the president of the president'scabinet authorizes federal prosecutors to pursue substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulations. bill bar pursuing these allegations sparked an outcry. 16 assistant u.s. attorneys and the trump administration urged attorney general to cease investigations because they had not seen evidence of any substantial anomalies. that means they did not find any evidence of real fraud. attorney general barnett or sue the investigation anyways and after his investigation this is what he found. quote we have not seen fraud on the scale scale that could have affected a different outcome in the election. two weeks later on december 14 the elected voted to give job biden pin to six electoral votes and injured his victory. the following day bill barr resigned to attorney general bar had served president trump and he never publicly came out against the president that for bill barr making up election fraud claims and saying the election was stolen was a bridge too far. bill bar made clear overtur

one of your president -- one of your predecessors, william barr, said about emergency risk protection orders, this is the single most important thing i think we can do in gun control areas to stop these massacres from happening in the first place. william barr and i did not agree on the, but i think i am of the opinion that it is an important step to take. would you support these kinds of common sense steps? judge garland: yes, i don't know the specifics of all of them. with respect to emergency risk orders, when somebody is acting out in a way that suggests they are going to use violence against another human being we have to be careful that they don't get a weapon in their hands. i don't know the specifics of how the legislation would do that, but i do think that. sen. blumenthal: i welcome your support to that extent. judge garland: i don't mean to be nonsupportive, but in less i know the specifics it's hard for me. sen. blumenthal:4 i understand and you are doing an excellent job of navigating your way through the request for specific commitments. i understand, sometimes a nonansw

you compare this to the former attorney general william barr, the contrast in terms of humility, in terms of a sense of giving to the country, of really approaching this as the people's lawyer, not the president's lawyer. and i don't think there's anyone who can think that that's not going to happen under attorney general garland. so in terms of those all-important signals and that personal message, it was really quite moving. but it was just a strong a contrast going from trump to biden as for us who lived in the department of justice as it will be going from barr to merrick garland. >> i want to ask both of you about this reporting about the role that prosecuting timothy mcveigh had on him. this is actually part of the garland story. i remember reading it when he was nominated but not really focusing on it. i don't know all of these details were ever shared. i want to read this from "the washington post."

to a department that badly needs it after the last few attorneys generation particularly after william barrw congress moves from here? we should note, by the way, the senate is out of session next week. the house is in committee next week. there are still going to be some hearings. the last hearing related to the whole gamestop wall street trading frenzy. that's going to take place next week. we know there's work going on on covid relief. there's plenty to be done. what is your sense in terms of what happens in the next few weeks? i would like to believe that it won't necessarily be any more partisan than it usually is. it's not exactly that congress is, you know, known for checking everything off the to-do list at the end of the day. >> josh, i'm a little hopeful that there can be some bipartisan cooperation and collaboration on big issues. if you look underneath the headlines, in the senate at least, we've seen some progress. mcconnell and schumer, it was bumpy, but they reached an agreement swiftly on how this trial would be conducted. republicans really didn't do anything to delay the t

spurred from racial justice protests that erupted nationwide last year, the message was amplified by william barrs top homeland security officials who translated it to a shift of national justice. trump's efforts to focus his administration on leftist groups did not stop the justice department and the fbi from pursuing cases of right-wing extremism. but the officials say the effect of his direction was nonetheless substantial. reverend al, your thoughts, and you certainly can take the next question to george conway. >> yeah. my thoughts are that we're dealing with the fact that the right wingers were all over social media, were very public about their intention. they were not hiding the fact that they were telling people bring your weapons to washington. so it did not take a lot of deep dive for the justice department and investigators to look at both if they wanted to. i think that it is a political that they wanted to look at the left and what was in plain view and threats and planning and obvious public planning by the right. one of the things i have known about donald trump having fought with
