>> i'm eager to hear her assessment and what she felt when donald trump was on capitol hill. have a good show. >> thank you, alex. on january 6th, after the trump mob attacks the capital, tim cook, the conscientious ceo of apple reached into his conscience and presumably the conscience of the company he runs and said this, today marks a sad and shameful chapter in our nations history. those responsible for this interaction should be held to account and we must complete the transition to president- elect biden's administration. especially when they are challenged that our ideals matter most. those responsible for this interaction should be held to account. today, tim cook met with the person responsible, donald trump, and donald trump's first returned to capitol hill, since he inside of the attack on the capitol on january 6th, tim cook meeting with trump was arranged by a business lobbying group in washington that calls itself the business roundtable. companies pay big money to be members of the business roundtable which in turn lobbies for those companies and in addition to all that individual lobbying work done by the law firms and lobbyists that companies like apple higher by the dozen in washington. and this guy met with donald trump today in donald trump's return to capitol hill. >> there's no question, none, president trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the event of the day. no question about it. the people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president. >> donald trump did not set foot in the capital today, or on government property because meetings were campaign meeting said they were held off campus from the capital, first with republican members of the house and then the business roundtable and then republican members of the senate, mitt romney and bill cassidy who also voted to convict donald trump in his last impeachment trial did attend the meeting with donald trump today. nbc news caught up with senator romney, on his way to the trump meeting. >> do you plan on confronting him or bringing of any kind of january 6th related issues. >> now, this is not the place for that. >> no, no, this is not the place for that. that is the very polite version of the ultra polite utah senator met romney. maybe two polite this time. what is the place for that, one place that is the federal courthouse, a short walk from where they were meeting where donald trump was scheduled to stand trial for crimes that special prosecutor smith has accused him for committing but the republican supreme court blocked the trial by opposing a long delay in deciding an appeal by trump that they never should have accepted in which donald trump is claiming something that no president and no lawyer or judge has claimed before that the president of the united states has lifetime immunity for any and all crimes committed while he was president of the united states. andrew wiseman will join us to consider the unconscionable delay that the supreme court has imposed on the criminal case of the united states of america versus donald j trump. this is not the place for that. this is not the place for republicans or anyone else to stand up to donald trump, that's what they thought today. even a senator like mitt romney, who knows that donald trump keeps him because mitt romney voted guilty in both of donald trump's senate impeachment trials. >> now we gather due to a selfish man's injured pride and the outrage of supporters who he deliberately misinformed for the past two months and stirred to action this very morning. what happened here today was an interaction, incited by the president of the united states. those who choose to continue to support his dangerous gambit by questioning the result of legitimate election will forever be seen as being complicit in an unprecedented attack against our democracy. >> this is not the place for that. it's also not the place for any exhibition of male ego by anyone other than donald trump, and it's impossible to overstate just how peculiar that is as our first guest tonight, the first woman speaker of the house, nancy pelosi can attest, there are many forces that make the wheels of power turn in washington, policy goals sometimes, ambition, but throughout the history of the republic, there has been no force more consistent than male ego. and so, one of the most fascinating things to observe in the senators public adoration of trump is the complete and utter collapse of male ego in a place that used to be run on the fuel of male ego, the oldest senator, 90- year-old truck -- chuck grassley was in the meeting, when i was working in the senate, grassley had a rough edged ego that was often activated as a cover for his chronic ignorance. the a and has expanded, and the ego of chuck grassley has evaporated. and then there is senator rafael edward cruz, he attacked his father, lied about his father being involved in the assassination kennedy, he attacked his wife, heidi, he ridiculed the way she looked and here is what the outraged candidate for president senator cruz said about that then. >> donald, you are a sniveling coward and leave heidi hell alone. >> let's be clear, this is nuts. >> there was real suspense going into the 2016 republican convention about whether or not the deeply offended senator cruz would event endorsed donald trump, the republican nominee for president but senator cruz looked into his heart and found, nothing. nothing that would prevent him from endorsing the presidential candidate who attacked and lied about his father and attacked and lied about his wife. and there was senator cruz today, in that lineup of utterly ego less republican men craving their moment with trump, craving a possible handshake or pad on the bar -- back or a wink or smile, a glance, anything from donald trump. watch. watch now, senator cruz, he craved that moment, after donald trump passes by, senator cruz,. ,. [ applause ] he kept clapping after donald trump left the room, after the door was closed, did he think donald trump could see through the door? today, the president of the united states was doing the nation's business in italy as a meeting of the g7. the president signed a ten-year security agreement with ukraine, biden and zelinski took questions from reporters. >> the discussion focused on developing ukraine's air defense system. my question is, can you provide any details about the readiness of our allies to take part, thank you. >> i be happy to respond to that. we have acquired commitment from five countries so far, the patriot batteries and other air defense systems as well as we let it be known to the countries that are expecting from us, air defense systems in the future. that they will have to wait. everything we have is going to go to ukraine until their needs are met and then, we will make good on the commitments we made to other countries. >> donald trump could not understand that question, or that answer. the president, who is only three years older than his republican challenger but is accused of being too old for his job has now flown across the atlantic three times in the last week and will fly back across the atlantic from this european meeting, all the way to los angeles, where he will be joined in a campaign fundraiser by president barack obama, george clooney and julia roberts, today the biden/harris campaign released this ad. >> on january 6th donald trump lit a fire in this country. >> 140 officers were injured, the siege lasted for seven hours. >> stoking the lanes of division and hate and now he's pouring gasoline. >> pledging to pardon the extremists who try to overthrow our government. and inciting them to try again. there's nothing more sacred than our democracy but donald trump is ready to burn it all down. >> i'm joe biden and i approve this message. >> leading off our discussions that, speaker america nancy pelosi of california. thank you for joining us tonight. i've been wondering all day, what your thoughts and feelings have been today, with donald trump returning not precisely to the scene of the crime but certainly, the neighborhood of the crime. >> well, he wanted to give the impression that he had come to the capital but what did they go to a bar on capitol hill or something like that but whatever it was, what the republicans and trump are trying to do is pull the wool over the eyes of the american people what happened that day was as it was described, by mitch mcconnell, by tim cook, they may have amnesia about what happened that day but the fact is, it was an assault, it was the scene of a crime, a crime of an assault on the capitol , with confederate flags flying underneath the dome that lincoln built. a crime against the constitution, and it's peaceful transfer of power. a crime against injuring people, a crime against people, whether it was members or police officers, law enforcement, the staff, the trauma continues. it was a terrible thing, when it happened, and it's a terrible thing that they are trying to deny it. this is revisionist history. this is whitewashing, as you say, but it is pulling the wool over the eyes of the american people. as far as those people going to any business roundtable, most of them care about, they just care about not paying taxes, they will put up with anything so they don't have to have taxes. as i recall to your attention, the only major piece of legislation that was passed by the republicans and donald trump when they and he were in power was one bill, a tax bill that gave 83% of the benefits to the top 1%. adding 2 trillion, not million, not billing, $2 trillion to the national debt. and then they come when we are trying to negotiate a budget deal and say, we really can't afford to do what you want to do for women, infants and children in terms of food and the rest because you know it's going to add to the national debt. it's just appalling. >> speaker pelosi, to comment on this phenomenon that i've been wondering about during the trump years, watching the collapse of the male ego, in that institution, where you started as a freshman member of the house, you were surrounded all day in a culture controlled by the male ego, these committee chairman so for ego reasons and other reasons would fight any slight incursion into their jurisdiction there was all sorts of jealousy involved that you know about and i know about in the house and the senate and we could see the male ego energy running wild around the place. most of the time, and in unproductive and negative way that got in the way of progress and so, it has astonished me that among, and i mean this as a male ego issue that among republican men in the senate and in the house, male ego somehow disappeared and i don't think social psychology has ever seen a phenomenon like this before. in the history of the study of male ego. >> well, as i said, we don't agonize, we organize. but understand this, this guy, the former president, he is a master of projection. everything he says about somebody else, whether it's a judge in the courtroom, a witness, a juror, a member of congress, a woman, and opponent in an election. everything he said is a rejection of -- projection of his own shortcomings. crooked this person, he's crooked. lisa this person, he's lazy. name any subject, any subject that you can name, wacky this person, he knows he is wacky, so we are going to do psychoanalysis i think we need to have them in front of some healthcare professionals but i do wish there would be an intervention from his family, assuming they loved him he on the resources, that they would intervene, that the republican party would have an intervention, they have become a cult to a thug and that is really a tragedy for the ground -- grand old party and what they were, so going into insecurities, really, you know the insecurities i'm concerned about are some of the voters out there who fall for his line. but i'm here tonight to say to you on this day, when he tried to return to the scene of the crime, he didn't dare come to the capitol, as he didn't dare come to the capitol on january 6th but we cannot let this be whitewashed, this is a disservice to our founders, the sacrifice of our men and women in uniform who have fought for our freedom that he wants to dismantle. and the aspirations of our children to live in this great country, with respect for the institutions and concerned about their future. he just doesn't care. but let us forget about him, let's just talk about unifying the country. putting forth what joe biden did with the democrats in the congress, the house and senate. we have the first bill, right away, the rescue package, shots in arms, money and pockets, people back to work, children safely in schools. a child tax credit taking half the children in poverty out of poverty. the bipartisan infrastructure bill, we had 13 republicans but that's bipartisan in the house, more in the senate, i think, but the bipartisan bill, creating jobs, the ira, saving the planet, lowering the cost of prescription drugs, the pack act to protect their veterans who have possibly been exposed to burn pits, and that is any reason to vote for us, we are not saying we deserve it, we are saying, we have proven that we can get the job done instead of one bill for the richest people in the country. joe biden, under his presidency and our fusion of resources into the economy, 15 million jobs, what's his name, the worst job record since herbert hoover. lowest unemployment for like 40 straight months, low, inflation coming down. people talk about the cost of living, that's a legitimate concern but we are preeminent in the world in taking down inflation and what we have also done, while i'm concerned about the cost of groceries as anybody would be, for families, but think about how we reduced the cost of healthcare, reduced the cost of prescription drugs in our ira bill, if you are a senior on medicare and you need insulin, before us, it was five to $600 a month for seniors, under joe biden and the ira legislation, it's $35 a month. so when we talk about the cost of living, we have to talk about the cost of healthcare as part of that. so again, it's about the kitchen table, the cost of living, a woman's right to choose which is an economic issue as well as a democracy issue. so, let's just talk about what is at stake for people in the election, because they don't care. they do not care. they care about the 1%, they don't care about your kitchen table issues. and again, always rejecting his own shortcomings onto other people. >> speaker pelosi, thank you very much for sharing your perspective on what is at stake in this election and in the way we govern, thank you for joining us tonight. >> thank you for your attention to january 6th, we cannot let them pull the wool over the american people's eyes. our democracy is at stake. >> thank you. coming up, what the supreme court took 16 days to decide in 1974 about presidential immunity, the current supreme court has now

sale is only for a limited time. on july eight, 1974 the supreme court was presented with a novel question, is the president of the united states subpoenas -- 16 days after the supreme court agreed to hear the case, the court issued a unanimous opinion on july 24, 1974, ordering richard nixon to comply with the subpoena and surrender the tapes. that forced the president of the united states to resign the presidency because the state contained evidence of nixon committing crimes in the white house. each justice who joined that unanimous opinion new that their opinion could bring an end to the nixon presidency by supplying evidence for impeachment, which he did. those justices knew the weight of the decision they were making. but it was in essence, a simple decision, turning on the simple principle. but no one is above the law. after the current supreme court agreed to hear an equally simple case, maybe even simpler, about the presidency. the republican controlled supreme court took eight weeks just to hear oral arguments of the case. it has now been seven weeks since the oral arguments in the current supreme court still has not announced its decision on the simple question, our former president immune from criminal prosecution for crimes they commit while president. no one, prior to donald trump, and possibly the current republican supreme court justices have ever thought that former presidents could not be criminally prosecuted. it's the kind of case that the supreme court should have nailed to decide in 48 hours, at most. the shame of this rep -- republican supreme court is not just ethics violations but financial corruption of clarence thomas and the unconstitutional musings of justice alito caught on tape recently. it's the procedural corruption that this republican supreme court has brought to the case of the united states of america versus donald j trump, the first prosecution in history of a former president for conducting a conspiracy against the united states to overturn a presidential election. joining us now is andrew wiseman, former chief prosecutor in new york state. author of the bestseller, the trump indictments. 1974, 12 days, we are in the 50th day now, now nothing. >> let me add, it was december of last year that jack smith asked the supreme court to take the case directly and they said no. it is six months since he said, let's just decide it now. and then, all of the statistics of the time you noted, the delay is the message. the delay is the decision, because no matter what they say at this point, it's too late for this trial in all reality, to actually happen in terms of d.c. and to your segment with nancy pelosi, it is a way of not reminding the voters, it's not holding somebody accountable, it's saying yes, it's okay to whitewash because the delay has happened already, and so, this is one where liz cheney remarked that the courts basically have held up when she talked about the 60 or so courts that said, you know what, the election was not stolen, the lower courts by and large have held up, you cannot say the same thing about the supreme court. it is totally shameful what they are doing. >> so, even if tomorrow, as they could announce tomorrow or next week, come out with an incredibly simple and possibly even unanimous or high majority opinion saying that no, there is absolutely no validity to the trump claim at all, just like the nixon decision. your point is, whoever managed to delay it that long whether it be alito, thomas, roberts, whoever managed to create this delay, has succeeded in the intent of the delay, which is, no trial before this election, that if we can't protect donald trump from the actual constitution, if we can't change the constitution, we can change his court date, we do have that power and when you listen to those alito tapes, you're listening to a man who to me, seemed capable of thinking that way. >> you could end up with a decision where they put in lots of flowery language about no man is above the law but in fact, this man is, because you know, the judge in the case, the district judge has said, she will give about 80 days because that's how long the stay was before the trial was intended to even if there's a decision tomorrow, the trial in all reality is unlikely to start for 80 more days and at that point, you can imagine a lot of arguments and appellate briefing on the issue of, is it appropriate when somebody is a nominee for president to have a trial and have that going on during you know, the very last months of the campaign. so that is, to me, it is so hard not to view this as intentional, because as you point out, the court has, not just in the nixon case, but it has repeatedly acted faster and it can act faster, so to me, the delay is clearly intentional. it is so undermining when you have the supreme court of the united states undermining the rule of law, i mean just think about that, this is the highest court in the land and is not living up to its, republicans and democrats, they have actually honored the office. >> andrew wiseman, thank you very much. coming up, today republicans in the house of representatives held a hearing designed to defend trump against the criminal trials that he was found guilty of by a manhattan jury unanimously and as you might have predicted, the hearing backfired on the most incompetent

anyone on our side did but that's why we are here. >> that is one of the memorable moments that republicans invited today in the house judiciary committee hearing that was supposed to focus on alvin bragg, nevermind that the house and senate judiciary committees have never investigated any district attorney in america ever before. alan bragg successfully prosecuted donald trump on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records with the intent of influencing the election and violate election law. alvin bragg has already appeared -- agreed to appear at the house judiciary committee on july 12, the day after trump will be sentenced. there is no reason for alvin bragg to agree to testify to the house judiciary committee that he has agreed to do it, so there was no reason for the republicans to have a fake hearing today about alvin bragg when he's not there. in which, the republicans had to sit on the full side of the room, listening to the truth. >> i want to begin by quoting the jury in the manhattan hush money payment trial, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty. this is what the jury announced, unanimously on every count. >> joining us now is congressman eric swallwell, he served as an impeachment manager in the second impeachment trial, congressman swallwell, sometimes they make it too easy for you. >> and sometimes it's okay to have a little fun. >> it is a complete corruption of the concept of the house judiciary committee that it was suddenly decided to go around the country or wait, not around the country, just go to one place in america, to study and investigate the workings of one district attorney, something the house judiciary committee has never done before . >> and lawrence, there's a perfect contrast right, in the president's son, who was convicted earlier this week, he wanted to plead guilty, he had to go forward with this trial, accepted the outcome and republicans, my colleagues and fox news, or fox, not news, they were celebrating the american jury system and republican today were attacking the impartiality of judge merchan, because he made a small contribution years ago, to president biden, when president trump judge in the florida case of stealing national security secrets is a judge that he appointed in the supreme court that is delaying the immunity case, had a judge that flew the insurrection flag days after january 6th. and then, take it back to why do your viewers care, why do everyday americans care about this? it's because donald trump is asking for a job and responsibilities that no other felon would be afforded. no felon would be given a security clearance, no felon can serve in the military or preside over the military, no felon can this of the countries that the president of the united states is going to have to visited by the way, the conditions of any balance probation terms are that you can't hang around other felons, problem, most of donald trump's campaign team and many others white house aides in the last administration are felons. >> as you go forward in the committee, what are you anticipating when alvin bragg does come on july 12? >> to show that you know, alvin bragg brought a case in a city where donald trump chose to live and that case was tried by neighbors that donald trump chose to live with and the jury was in part, picked by donald trump, so, 12 jurors, 34 times, made a decision and 408 straight times, they declared him guilty, and that is entirely based on the evidence, so this is about our jury system but i still think we have to take it back to, why should everyday people care about this and every second that you are bringing alvin bragg in or doing the work on behalf of donald trump, you're not doing the work that the american people care about, eight years ago the pulse shooting happened, no work to end gun violence, no work to go after corporations that are gouging us on our groceries and our gas, no work to bring down the cost of healthcare, so there is a cost for this lunacy and this fidelity to a felon that they show every day. >> congressman swallwell, thank you very much for joining our discussion. coming up, donald trump tried something today that no other presidential nominee has ever done, consulting and attacking and lying about the city where his nominating convention will be held. it should come as a surprise to no one that the city has a black mayor. that ity hais next. it's good to get some fresh air. fresh air? hi guys! bill, you look great! now that

milwaukee, where we are having our convention, is a horrible city. that is of course what donald trump says about cities where black people live. and especially cities with black mayors. >> donald trump want to talk about things that are horrible, all of us lived through his presidency, so right back at you, buddy, i would say that. look, obviously donald trump is wrong about something yet again. i find it kind of perplexing, kind of strange, that he would insult the largest city in wisconsin because he's running for president 194,000 votes in the city of milwaukee and donald trump received 48,000 votes in milwaukee. joe biden won the state by 20,682 votes. for donald trump to win wisconsin this time he would have to get more votes than he got last time. even he should understand that and apparently donald trump thinks the way to do that is to lie about the biggest city in wisconsin. joining our discussion now is democratic congressman gwen moore from wisconsin. she represents milwaukee and is a member of the most powerful committee, the ways and means committee. thank you for joining us tonight. what was your reaction when you heard what donald trump said about your congressional district? >> thanks for having me, lawrence. i saw your segment with speaker m read this -- speaker emeritus nancy pelosi. she got it right that this was a great example of projection. donald trump is projecting on the city of milwaukee, the horrible things that really pertain to his own character. i mean he is a horrible person. it is not just the 34 felony counts, but he is a sexual assault or and there are 54 more counts against him for really trying to undermine our elections and undermine and really inspiring and insurrection. so he is a horrible person and you know, lawrence, i just have to say this. the mayor of milwaukee has worked really hard with all of the republicans in town to make sure that this convention is successful, has all the resources that it needs. i personally hounded the appropriators, democrats and republicans, who increased the security budget by another $25 million to make sure that the delegates would be safe and have a good time in milwaukee. and to have this slap in the face and to call us horrible is a disgrace. it shows his extreme ingratitude. you know the selection committee chose milwaukee for all of the reasons that we love milwaukee. it is a great place. we have a vibrant business community. it is a very diverse community and wisconsinites are very friendly. so i am disappointed and more than that, lawrence, you know all of his sycophants and apologists, that is even worse than donald trump calling it horrible. people making excuses. never our delegation in particular. senator johnson. making excuses for him,
