Want to interfere. Should she will come to washington, see that is not going to be given much opportunity. Because we do have standards and once you stalling the children who live you will a mass shoolting, thats where you draw the line. Lets start there. Amanda carpenter, thank you so much. Thanks, don. This is cnn tonight. Im don lemon. Thank you so much for joining us. The scene at the capitol tonight, beautiful, stately, mournful. Honoring a fallen herery, officer Ryan Sicknick who lost his life defending our democracy on january 6th. Just think about the desecration there a month ago when a mob of insurrectionists tried to take down our government nasm as the second Impeachment Trial for the president is looming. Officer sicknick, he lies in state in the capitol dome. House democrats laying out their case in an 80page brief saying, quote, If Provoking An Insurrectionary rite after losing an election is not an impeachable offense, its hard to imagine what would be. And they laid out the evidence, point by point. In the president s own words. The case against the president , and you know the story. Because it is the truth and we lived it. After the election trump refused to accept the will of the people, claiming he won in a landslide, Clamg Tclaiming the election was stolen. All of us here today dont want to see an election stolen by emboldened democrats and stolen by the fake news media. Make no me take. Election was stolen from me, you, from the country. And not a single state has gone through the illegal ballots. The truth is, we won the election by a landslide. If im down by five when they doing 3821, it means im winning in a landslide. We will have the greatest landslide in history. That is what is happening now. People died. After the Electoral College vote, he focused his tweets on january 6th. Be there. Be wild. And urging the crowd to Fight Like Hell or you wont have a country anymore. If you dont Fight Like Hell, youre not going to have a country anymore. You will never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong. And the violence rageded a the capitol. He told the insurrectionists, we love you, and youre very special. Go home, we love you. Youre very special. Team trump responding with a brief today. A misspelling on page one. But they dont hear any of the president s own words. If you heard a single thing about the election. And i quote. It is denied President Trump made any e effort to subvert the results of the 2020 president ial election. Denied . Really . He said it over and over . Demanding mike pence refuse to certify the results even though he had absolutely no authority to do that. All Vice President pence has to do is send it back to the states to recertify and we become president and you are the happiest people. That was a lie. He said it outloud. They want to recertify their votes. They want to recertify. But the only way that can happen is if mike pence agrees to end it back. Mike pence has to agree to send it back. Again, a lie. He put it in writing, Tweeting Again And again and again, and lets not forget his call to georgia Secretary Of State demanding he fight votes to flip the election. Look, all i want to do this is this. Er just want to find 11,780 votes which is more one than we have because we won the state. I just want to find. Where did he think they were going to find them from. What does that mean . And lindsay graham, ride or die, who tells politico today, if team trump argues the election is stolen, that is when youre going to lose everybody. That is when most of lsu be ready to move on. Thats when youll be ready to move on . Because you already told us you were done. Trump and i, we had a hell of a journey. I hate it being this way. Oh, my god, i hate. My point of view, a consequential president. Today, first thing youll see. All i can say is count me out. Enough is enough. Hmm. Well, that was the night of the insurrection. And now, just a month later, the former president s second Impeachment Trial is looming. A moment for the country to grapple with what we have seen. Joining me now, anna navarro. Good evening to both of you. Its stood see what is happening in washington right now. President biden paying respects to the fallen Capitol Hill Police officer brian sicknick, as he lies in the capitol rotunda, and a reminder of the horror of that day. Don, joe bind understands service. He understands loss. He has a reverence for the capitol as the citadel, the temple of american democracy. He spent 36 years there as the senate, and president of the senate. And he went to pay respects to the fallen officer for an event that was incited by his predecessor for the purpose of overturning a democratic election. That five people lost their lives that day. And you couldnt have a more eloquent symbol of what america has moved beyond, that is donald trump to the president that we have now, trying to move the country beyond that moment that we saw tonight. But anna, republicans arent moving beyond trump. The republicans are what . Theyre not moving beyond trump. No, theyre not. He they are beholden to trump. They are afraid of trump. And you know, as i was watching that ceremony today, can i that cnn was carrying. I was growing angrier and angrier, because, don, that did not need to happen. Officer sicknick did not need to be lying in honor there. There were 140 other Law Enforcement officers that were hurt. More people died there. And look, these congress people, the senators, trump and his cronies who peddled these lies that incited this mob, the domestic terrorists, they may not have been the ones breaking the windows or smashing the doors or holding the fire hydrant with which they were smashing peoples skulls or the sticks they were using to hurt people, but they have responsibility. They have blood on their hands and i have yet to hear any of those people, any of those people be held accountable or take responsibility or take some of the blame for what happened. I have yet to hear reckoning. Instead, they went back in that building where that officer is lying in honor right now and they voted to confirm the lies that led to that mans death. That is such a shameful moment for america. But its a shameful moment. Its an unforgivable moment. Its a moment we should not move on for the Republican Party. So kevin mccarthy, if he wants to honor that officer who is laying there, you know what he needs to do . He needs to strip Marjorie Taylor greene, who is one of the primary peddlers of lies of her committee assignments. You know what the snofrs need to do . They need to stop hiding behind the Process Argument of constitutionality, and they neat to vote on the article of impeachment that dont ald trum incited insurrection. I dont want to see them going over there and paying respects to officer sicknick. Im talking as an american. Im not talking on behalf of officer sicknicks family. As an american, im livid, livid seeing them hold their heads down and cross themselves in prio prayer when they dont have the guts to take responsibility. There are many people in this country who feel the outrage youre feeling, the sheer h ad i want to you check out this video of Marjorie Taylor greene, suggesting her followers storm the capitol. Here it is . We have a sea of people f we shut down the street f we shut down everything, if we flood the capitol buildings, blood the buildings, go inside, they are public buildings, we own them. We own these buildings. Do you understand that . We own the buildings and we pay all the people who work in the buildings. Just two years ago that is december of 18. Just two years ago. We reached tout greenes office for comment on the video. They didnt respond. The comments are horrific. Why is it so hard, as anna said, for republicans to figure out what though do about her . Because they are in hock to the energy and intensity that people that Marjorie Taylor greene speaks for to win their elections. Marry Taylor Greene is a dangerous nut who is no more fit to serve in congress than donald trump was to serve in the white house. But thats the problem. Donald trump served in the white house because a whole lot of people with the same the same viewpoints that elected Marjorie Taylor greene to congress from Northwest Georgia voted for donald trump, and voted to reelect him. 74 million did. That is the problem. And the Republican Party is terrified. We are only now beginning to learn how horrendous the final days of Donald Trumps presidency have been. We saw some of it in real time. The phone call trying to the georgia second of state to commit election fraud. But the Republican Party depends on those forces. Until they are able, until they have the strength to stand up and say, no, that is not what we represent. Invite those people to leave. Form a different kind of Republican Party with a different kind of message, they, i think, are going to stick on the path theyre on. Mitch mcconnell is trying to alter that path, but Mitch Mcconnell tolerated the big lie before he finally called it out. So you have various ranges of responsibility of of people who tolerate the lie for a short period of time or a long period of time. That has to be the last word. John, i want to thank you, and anna, i want to thank you. You are representing what a lot of people are feeling. Its disgusting, don. Its disgusting. Now i want to bring in mary trump, niece of the former president. She is the author of too much and not enough, how the world created the most dangerous man. Mary, good evening. He still wants his legal team to argue the election was stoemen. It is a massive lie that ultimately led to the violent insurrection. Why cant he let it go . First, why should he . The Republican Party did themselves and the entire country a great disservice when they didnt put a stop to it on november 7th after the election was called for President Biden. The fact they let it play out so many months and gain steam among donalds supporters is one of the reasons were in this mess. He Still Believes there is a chance for him to i dont know anymore if he believes he can overturn the results of the election. But he Still Believes theres a chance for him to be relevant and dictate how things go going forward, and so far, the republicans in congress seem more than willing to allow that to happen. Well, his legal team says he urged supporters to protest peacefully. He used the word once in his january 6th speech. This is what else he said, watch this. After this, we will walk down, and ill be there with you. You will never take back our country with weak nts. You have to be strong. We Fight Like Hell. If you dont Fight Like Hell,were not going to have a country anymore. Mary, youre a psychologist. After threats of a stolen election, what kind of impact can language like that have on the trump supporters, the people there and riled up . We have to remember that hes been prepping them for this for months. So its not as if january 6th was the first time he was stoking their sense of grievance and anger. Its been going on forever, it seems. So that was just the final straw, if you will, and they were ready to go. I mean, they were ready to go before they got there. And he and donnie and several senators and members of the House Of Representatives added fuel to that particular fire. He was probably told to throw the world peacefully in there so he could have plausible deniability. He said it once. The rest of the speech was an incitement of violence. As sof now, it looks like there are not enough republicans to convince trump. Whop do you say if he is able to skirt accountability again . It could be disastrous. And what i kind disturbing, the republican senators are saying they will vote to acquit without leaving room to be convinced by compelling evidence. Thats it already seems a setup in that respect. At the very least, they need to invoke the third section of the 14th Amendment which would bar him from ever seeking Public Office again. Because if he is allowed to run, he will have a platform that will give him power and relevance he absolutely has no business having anymore. Well, hes been able to use what happened to make a lot of money, and you know, his grift about stolen and we have to fight, he used that to make a lot of money. How do you think your uncle is handling leaving office, without his twitter feed . Is he having withdraw . Yeah, i think hes probably had the worst couple weeks of his life, which is all well deserved. The problem is because of people telling him, threaten to start a third party, he has gotten the republicans back in line. And again, they seem more than willing to sacrifice due process, to sacrifice our democracy to hang on to their power, no matter how ill gotten. Its a very dangerous development, and i cant believe we still have to be having this conversation in february 2021. But we are not any where near Out Of The Woods yet. Amazing, were in february and we have a second impeachment of the former president. Its unreal. Listen, we all make typos in an email or text. But i mean, this is a legal document. His legal team misspelled United States on the first page of the article of impeachment. He said it was embarrassing when Sydney Powell Misspelled district three different ways in the lawsuit. Is this what happens when you surround yourself with yes people . They dont use spellcheck . When i saw it yesterday or today, i sent me over the edge. This has been happening since the very beginning. I dont know if its arrogance or laziness. But they have such con tempbt f for the american people. They misspell the heads of state. They misspell the most basic words and its just an insult to the rest of us. Mary trump, thank you so much. Thanks, don. Great to be here. Who are the rioters who attacked the u. S. Capitol . We have new information about one of them, a mother of oigt. How do people like her end up in the mob . It is love, love, love that makes it all worthwhile and it is love, love, love that cant help but make you smile. It is love, love, love. Send the love. Order now at edible. Com as carla wonders if she can retire sooner, shell revisit her plan with fidelity. And with a scenario that makes it a possibility, shell enjoy her dream right now. Thats the planning effect, from fidelity. So new tonight until the invest zbags of the riot of the capitol, a woman in a pink hat who helped operate a Battering Ram to smash a window has identified by the new yorker. The magazine says she was shouting directions to other riots. The woman is a mother of eight from pennsylvania. She said she was being spontaneous. Ronan interviewed her. Thank you so much. You spoke to this woman. Who is she . How is she part of a mob breaking into the u. S. Capitol . I reported eye didentities o couple participants in the riot, and correctly, a lot of our attention went to individuals who had Law Enforcement backgrounds, training that were part of organized groups. I interviewed a member of the oath keepers. This woman, rachel powell, turned out to be something else. She appearing to have not been a part of an organized group. She appears to be an equally chilly story. She was radicalized through her facebook friends. Through misinformation and content that came at her through the internet and communities she found online. Fascinating. Ronan, i want to play video from the siege of the capitol and then well talk. Here it is. I have been in the other room. Listen to me. In the other room on the other side of this door, right there there is a glass that somebody its broken. You can drop down. There is also two doors in the other room. One in the rear and one in the right when you go in. So people should probably coordinate together if youre going to take this building. We have another window to break, easy. And this window here, needs to be broken. So ronan, she seemed very knowledgeable of the capitol and where she was. You spoke to her about this video. What did she say . She will talked for two hours from an undisclosed location. A lot of the activity she participated in this day can carry criminal charges. She actually watched that footage with me on the line. And she said im going to comment on it further until i have an attorney. But someone needed to be there to give order or more lives would have been lost. Were deaths caused that day by people behaving the way she behaved. She claims the knowledge of the floor plan from her participation that day. We have no knowledge that she was there on a previous tour. Given all you know and you reported, does it make sense . Does her explanation make sense . It is possible. When you look at the tiktok of events, its a huge amount of video. She was involved in multiple skirmishes with police. She was using a Battering Ram. She was in a number of locations there. But i think Law Enforcement is likely going to want to poe questions. She was in the last year increasingly in a community with others, extremist ideologies, and she certainly came there and willing and ready to be involved in acts on of violence. If i know anything about you on this reporting, you will follow up on this. When you get information, please come back. Thank you so much. Always a pleasure.

The white house signals the gops proposed 216 billion package. It just wont be enough. That as the senate sets the stage for reconciliation if they didnt get republicans to buy in. With democrats determined to move fast, what kind of relief can americans exsfwekt how soon . Joining me now, the democratic senator from new jersey that is cory booker. Thank you, i really appreciate that. That is all i have behind wondering. How long i know the current president wants by partisanship, he wants unity. But every tick, tick, tick, its a second, a minute, an hour, and americans dont have relief. How much longer can this go on before checks get in the mail to americans . Yeah, i think that youre right. This is not about a package. Its about the people. And the people who are suffering right now. And when you keep saying, you know, how long do we wait for bipartisanship, we have overwhelming by partisanship right now. When you poll americans, overwhelmingly, they are popular. When you talk about raising the minimum wage, they popular. Talk about aid for state and local governments. You know the governors association, democrats and republicans, you have a package that is big and bold supported by lets talk about that. The former Vice President , now president , came in office in 2009, you know, the economy was going off a cliff. He helped to safe the auto industry. He has and what they did was bold. They had to do it. She has some experience in this. Youre saying you hope republicans catch up. Youre saying they are worried about the price tag. They dont care when it was for Corporate Tax cuts. The white house is saying the risk is going too small, as you said, no too big. Are democrats prepared to move forward on this without republican support . Yes. Yes and i think we all understand the urgency and the pain. 30 million americans dont know that they will have the money and resources for a meal. We have an Employment Rate in an economy that has so many figures like we have not seen since world war ii. We are in a massive economic crisis and a Massive Health cry s sis right now. Everybody from the schools, to the ball businesses, need help now. So we were elected in this cycle and got the majority in the senate to do something for people. And i know that President Biden is has learned a lot from the days where they try to cater to a republican. They change the health care bill, to try to cater, to get republican votes. They did a lot to try to get them in the recovery bill. Do you really think he gets that . Do you any he learns the lessens from the Obama Administration . No, we dont want to work with you. We had a call with the president where he mentioned that history. He knows what we have been through. Lets talk about impeachment before we run out of time. You have already been a part of one Impeachment Trial involving this president. The second one is set to begin. Democrats are going to argue that trump is responsible for the violent attack on the capitol and the president s legal team will say the trial isnt constitutional. What do you think is the most compelling piece of evidence that time . Im not in the huddle of House Managers serves as prosecution. But i tell you, tonight, tonight, the remains of brian sicknick, the officer who died in the attack from new jersey are going to be held in honor in our capitol. His death was a tragedy and its also a crime. We will be holding the trial in a crime scene. s a legal term i learned early in my law school career. But for. But for donald trump, the attack on the capitol would not have happened. He fueled the lie. He put the kindling down and the gasoline through lie after lie after lie, and at a rally, he threw a match, and he pointed that energy and that combustion towards the capitol. So its very clear to me, but for Donald Trumps actions, we would not have insurrection in the capitol and a death of a noble patriot. I saw something you put on social media today. Its the second day of black history month. And you tweeted a quote. Never forget that we were enslaved in this country longer than we have been free. Never forget that for 250 years, black people were born into chains, whole generations followed by more generations who knew nothing but chains. Right now, were in a cross roads with White Supremacists emboldened by the former president. Is that something that can be reversed in. I mean, you cant reverse hes with all directionness. But you can confront and help to heal from it. Not just slavery. After slavery, we went in the greatest period in america of domestic terrorism. Thousands and thousands of americans lynched and beaten and killed all the way up until the 1950s and 60s. We remember girls dying. My family literally in order to buy the house this legacy is still with us. We have to confront it. And realize that this is not let me put it that way. The enslavement, the chains of this history do not just drag down some americans. It drags us all down. So so with have to use february to not just honor black history, shut compel us and benefit us out. I was speaken to Isabella Wilkerson and she reminded me, it wont be until 2111, that black people will be free for as long as they were enslaved in this country. And that doesnt happen for quite a long time. Sadly, you and i will not be on this earth when that happens. Well, that is a pessimistic way to end. 2111 . 23 if you want to live to be 180 no i agree with you in terms of the ballots on both sides. But what we can create in our society, and a more beloved community. I just have im just talking about the time line. Yeah, im fine with that. I know you believe in the redemptive power of love and that can be light in this darkness. Thank you, senator, we will end on that. That is a more optimistic tone. Thank you. Good to see you. Already, good to see you too. I want you to know about a new project of mine. I wrote something that i hope to start conversations. Its called this is the fire, and you can find it where you find books. If democrats go at it alone, do they have to go alone for the next four years . We will talk about it next. It is love, love, love that makes it all worthwhile and it is love, love, love that cant help but make you smile. It is love, love, love that lights the sun and stars above. Oh, i want you to know you are loved. Send the love. Order now at edible. Com President Bidens moving ahead to pass his first major piece of legislation, a massive 1. 9 trillion covid relief package. Lets discuss. Jim and matt, senior columnist for the daily beast. Matt, your latest piece. Its called biden is about to steam roll the gop. Here is why its wrong. Biden faces a tough choice that can set the tone for the next four years and it looks like hes going to do the wrong thing and give in to mounting pressure from democrats to tell republicans to go go stuff it and pass the full 1. 9 trillion through reconciliation. So everyone remembers Mitch Mcconnell say winners make policy, loser goes home. Why shouldnt the democrats play hard ball like that . If they want to live down to the republican example, they can do that. Joe biden ran to be different, right . And to transcend politics. I think bide many my opinion had two mandates. One is to repair the social fabric. In other words, dont be donald trump, and marpart of that is a performance that he is going to work across the aisle. The other thing he had a mandate on was covid. We have two things that are potentially now in conflict. I just think this early on, here we are not even a month into this administration, and healing our divisions was a central team of his campaign promise. And you have ten republicans who are coming forward willing to spend by the way, they just had a bipartisan bill a month ago that spent 900 billion on covid, willing to spend another 600 billion, and if Joe Biden Rebutts that this early, i do think that it set acetone. Im not saying it wasnt be any bipartisan support in the future but i think it will make things difficult. Okay, so heres the thing. Jim, i see matts logic. But matt, i think you left out a major thing. And jim, you can agree with me or not. We have a huge thing called a pandemic going on. Where people are out of work and theyre in desperate need and the clock, every minute that ticks is another minute they cant meet their obligations, and didnt democrats learn in president obamas term that compromise doesnt work when they are dealing with a party of no . Mitch mcconnell said im going to make him a oneterm president , and Mitch Mcconnell has been an obstructionist to democrats forever. He never changed his tone. What gives here . Didnt they learn from obama . Look, this is going to a first. I would like to quote Donald Trumps pollster who issued a memo saying the number one issue for voter us is covid. I was a White House Deputy chief in 2009. We bent over backwards to get three republicans to be a part of the stimulus be. The most important thing we need to do is figure out what we need to do in the package. And the republican governor of West Virginia said youre better off going big than small because you cant fix it did he not doesnt mean we cant work on other things. Im not buying it. Thats exactly what i thought. Maybe there are things in the future that they can Work Together on, but i just think this is just me. I just think that the need is so urgent, its so dire right now that they got to do something. We may as well help our fellow americans than spend it on something that we dont need, which we often do. But stay with me. Were going to talk more about this. Day to day protrump attorney vote illegal himself in georgia in 2020 . Well talk about that next.

Georgias Secretary Of StateBrad Raffensperger launched an investigation into whether lin wood voted illegally. You cant make this up. No, you cant. Its unbelievable.

Its just unbelievable. This is the president of the United States attorney, it says everything you need to know about the trump legal strategy. The former president , matt.
