we all remember jeff sessions and william barr but this was in that key period right after william barr denied and came out and said the truth. that there was novidence of widespread fraud in the election. and this is who sort of took his place. so that was a very vulnerable time for the justice department. and i mean, that was just a really intense period. and sort of the wall held up a little bit there. but that was really an ongoing theme of the trump administration. if you look at it from the campaign, you look to the muller report and you look to the ukraine scandal, he dn't really respect that blind between the justice department and the white house. and i think that's something during the biden administration that there's been a lot of effort to sor of build back up again. that's very important to merrick garland to make sure that wall is in place to make sure there's not this direct political influence onion going criminal cases. yamiche: and kelly, ryan is talking about this through line. and i think -- not respecting the line between the d.o.j. and the white house is probably

take the words of the former attorney general, william barr, who saw no evidence of widespread voter fraud or abuse or anything that's been articulated in the courts of law across this country even by those who are proposing that big lie. so i echo what the commissioner said. what i thought was so striking across all of it is their undying adherence to their oath and that they were juxtaposing their willingness to get back up to fight another minute, let alone another day. they continue to serve. even those who were taking their service for granted, who anticipated they will come back day after day. and the idea of them being willing to fill their obligations and both and the way they're recrafting and recasting of this narrative as if those members of congress who say they would like the truth are abiding by their oath. that was quite a poignant display and dynamic for me. >> it certainly was. jaime, it's interesting. the republican congresswoman liz cheney, one of two republicans on this panel, she took fell ow republicans to task for down playing what happened on january 6th. it w

remember william barr looked into these arguments and he said, essentially, that these arguments wereounsel is a strong republican partisan. he's also a real lawyer, and he looked at these arguments and said they were a joke. it just shows that giuliani and company were not being real lawyers. they were just being blind partisans, and they were pushing arguments that we know now, as we knew then, were, in fact, a joke. >> he said this because he was trying to dissuade the party apparatus from pushing these lies, from pushing the big lie. what does it tell you learning more about what was being said privately versus what was coming out publicly? >> well, what you noticed was people like justin reaimer did t say anything publicly. all the republicans who knew these were a joke were cowed into silence, and the field was left entirely to these trump partisans like giuliani, like sidney powell, who had no regard for what was really true or legal and, you know, their silence has allowed these arguments to fester for all of these months. >> and then also new this morning, we have learned tha

christmas to the top two justice department officials who were in charge after the attorney general william barrue who was acting as deputy attorney general they say that he and jeffrey rosen who was the acting attorney general, told the president that the justice department extensively investigated the claims of election fraud and found them to be groundless, at one point rosen told the president, quote, much of the information you're getting is false these notes were turned over to the house oversight committee, which released them today. the justice department usually doesn't do this. they usually resist congressional demands for this kind of information, but in this case, it is decided that congress's need for information about what happened outweighs the justice department's need for confidentiality. and president biden has chosen not to assert executive privilege over any of this presidents sometimes do claim executive privilege over what happened in past white houses for institutional reasons, but not this time. so the justice department has notified former justice department officials th

was constantly calling acting attorney general jeff rosen for evidence of voter fraud, something william barraid did not exist. today the house oversight committee released handwritten notes by mr. rosen's deputy of a december phone call he and his former boss had with the president. the handwriting isn't very legible, but quoting the former president, it reads, just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the r congressmen. republican congressman. in other words, just lie and other liars, myself included, will take it from there. we are joined by congresswoman malone. it's another example of the president going to extreme lengths to overturn the election, but to have it handwritten by somebody, the deputy or the assistant to the guy who he is talking to, what happens now? i mean, what's your committee going to do about this or can they do? >> well, just as you said, it's highly unusual to get any documentation involving direct comments of a president of the united states, especially to get handwritten ones documenting in great detail that he was urging the department o

we have seen william barr, wilbur ross both held in contempt in 2019.tigate but really contempt has just been a symbolic thing. historically, congress had its own inherent enforcement power. send out the old sergent of arms throw them in the prison near the capitol. that hasn't happened in over 80 years. the realistic option here, john, is they can go to the courts, they can file a lawsuit to force these people to testify and then if they don't you could have a real criminal issue. don mcgahn is a case in point of what should not happen. it took over two years of legal battles, jerry nadler took four months to go to court, fought it, dragged out forever. the house needs to do better and move more quickly and our courts need to move more quickly if we get this battle. >> the department of justice in the past hasn't been involved in the contempt sigcitations but t could. merrick garland could get involved. >> it's their choice. the people held in contempt barr and holder is in charge of doj. >> mo brooks, a lot made of the fact that mo brooks said that he

were talking about the fate of the rule of law where the justice department changed hands from william barr and the final days the lackey jeff rosen to joe biden's new attorney general merrick garland. the justice department had declined to prosecute wilbur ross. that was according to reporting from the associated press and government executive. that decision not to prosecute came after the commerce department own inspector general found ross had lied to congress about a citizenship question that he wanted to add to the 2020 census. we have an important update to that story. the ap and government executive have both issued corrections clarifying that in fact it was the trump justice department that made the decision not to prosecute ross not the biden administration. which is of course a very, very big difference which is right in line with the rule of law in the trump era and what is to be done about the criminal enterprise that was the trump administration because this is an astounding fact but it's true. wilbur ross is the fifth member of donald trump's cabinet who is referred to justice
