In exchanges in the oval office with the president saying, thats just not true. thats bull. thats b.s. barr said he told the president directly. there was never a moment any of them said that the president took that in and agreed and said, "i know its b.s., but i want to keep pushing this." this does, i suppose, get to the question of criminal intent. but there was -- and even when barr talked about the detached from reality, he made it conditional. he said, if he believed this, if he really bel...

To be three years hence, but as of now, it is hard to see how i wouldnt vote for the republican nominee. >> willie, im reminded of -- >> my head hurts. >> -- actually "the simpsons." when homer left after leaving his stint at the convenient store, apu said he slept, stole, was rude to the customer and, yet, there goes the best damn convenient store employee ive ever had. so here, you have barr going, and i wrote it down, that he is full of b.s. >> im going to allow this. >> idiotic claims. what ...

Select committees only remaining hearing this week. its on thursday. the hearing will feature testimony from mike pences former chief of staff or chief counsel, thats greg jacob, who we know spoke with the committee back in february for nearly nine hours. he has a unique window into exactly what trump and his inner circle were saying to pence, what they wanted him to do in the lead-up to january 6th, and according to reporting in the "washington post," jacob was among the very few in a meeting t...

Lives turned upside down. do you want to even respond? just to be clear, witnesses knew they were being recorded and knew their testimony might become public. is that accurate? >> yes. and, look, i only had a chance to skim the former presidents latest lengthy diatribe. but what was most notable to me was its more of the same big lie. he repeats a lot of the claims that were debunked long ago, and you played a nice montage of all the people talking about how, you know, how much b.s. that was. we...

He got himselfen snarled in the gate -- and became the manager after brad parscale was pushed out. and he was there the weeks after. he largely had left the trump orbit by january 6. and per reporting had indicated that he knew that they had lost and that the president knew it too. so that is why even if he comes there and as hes compelled to testify by subpoena, a lot people will watch what he has to say today as the committee builds the narrative of what happened on january 6. >> so legal ques...

Look at west virginia. mailmen selling the ballots. theyre being sold and dumped in river. this is a horrible thing for our country. this is not going to end well. >> mr. trump decided even before the election that regardless of the facts and the truth, if he lost the election he would claim it was rigged. mr. trump was right about one thing, it did not end well. on election night mr. trump claimed even before the votes were counted that his loss was the result of fraud. thursday we had testimon...

Propagating the very claims unsubstantiated claims of election fraud that bill steppian just said in private was b.s. and he thought he needed to professionally distance himself from and that is something important for us to point out from today. all of these people who in these private depositions, bill barr, bill steppian, alex canyon, jason miller all people who worked for the former president did not reiterate these claims publicly nor at the time did they say much. instead they created a pr...

Bill barr. so bill barr would go on to become fed up with donald trumps b.s., his word, not ours, saying trump had become, quote, detached from reality. in december of 2020, bill barr would leave his position. the men who would follow in bill barrs shoes, though, would face the same delusional president that bill barr did and they too would go out and try to reason with him, with the facts, the committee played testimony from richard donoghue, who became the acting deputy attorney general. watch...

The testimony this morning paints the picture of a president who is hearing from all of his top advisors -- not all, but many of his top advisors, the normal team, as bill stepian called them. saying that his claims are outrageous, they were b.s., not based in any fact. he went out to his supporters and told them they were true, encourage them, lit to this match, encouraged people to believe these "b.s. allegations." he asked them for money to help with his legal cases, he gave them a false sens...

But all the other election claims, those still stand. >> i mean, yamiche, its a perfect word. we got inside the black box and its scary whats inside and you and i had so many conversations during the four years of trumps presidency, and now his one year as a deplatformed whatever he is, ex-president, twice impeached, whatever we call him. it is still fascinating to see, in relative terms, the forces of bad and worse, and i guess by that, i mean, to try to process bill barr, who did more to damag...
