Into benghazi, but its more than convenient reversals that bother me. its that some feel like they are pulling one over on you. the thought that youre not only gullible but have the short-term memory of ted lassos goldfish. theyre hoping that you will buy into their rewrite rather than holding them accountable, and i got to tell you, i find myself watching press conferences these days and these interviews like ka kathy bates in her role as annie wilkes in misery claiming that everyone forgot wha...

Damning evidence enter kevin mccarthy. theres pretty interesting audio that further proves why the january 6th committee wants the house minority leader to voluntarily testify. a request that we know he repeatedly has refused to comply with. yesterday he seemed pretty emboldened and today looking a little bit more like a cat that ate the canary so allow me to paint the picture this friday evening because here he is yesterday feigning amnesia about a conversation he had with trump five days after...

Is that elections are unpredictable at best. so i think counting their eggs before theyve hatched isnt going to be, you know, a good thing in this case. they need to do whats right for the country. continue with the subpoena, even if it is going to cause additional, you know, problems within the party, because i think were already having this divisiveness, liz cheney with her father stood alone when we were doing a moment of silence about this. i think that says a lot about where we are. >> tary...

Going to such great lengths to avoid telling the truth, whether to the committee or to the american people? >> well, hes either lying or needs to see a very, very good neurologist because hes got an incredible case of amnesia. thats a conversation no one could ever possibly forget. and, you know, his willingness to lie is akin to basically trumps willingness to lie. and the entire -- a lot of the republicans in the house are willing now to lie about what happened on january 6th. and trump is say...

For what youre doing up there. >> its like they have amnesia. it doesnt like they kept used against them. as a hey, lets do it now. it goes bad for them later. does it meet your expectations has a question? >> an excellent question. really great. i think its strange to--its one thing to say hey we are relating to people, but i think its the preaching more than th relating. i think its that i can listen to something im not interested in a make a nice face and i think we can all do that as humans....
