invasion of france, that began the liberation of that country and of europe and the world from nazi tyranny joining us live from walpole, new hampshire to reflect on this momentous day is the award-winning director and filmmaker. ken burns, who of course produced the war. it's simply called the war, the definitive documentary outlining what happened in the course of world war ii. i can, i'm so grateful to have you on the program. i just like to start with your reflections as we see what are really our final remaining veterans, those courageous men who stormed the beach that day casey thanks for having me. this is one of the most important days in american history. it's certainly one of the most important days in world history. this is the greatest cataclysm in the history. of the world more than 60 million people were killed. this is the greatest invasion in the history of that. and we began our film at the end of the 90s to err in 2007 because
can't win. you can't let him in. michael, talk to us about the trump element sort of looming in these international relations. >> yeah, absolutely. look, i think, you know, i see it myself when i talk to foreign diplomats and people in other concerns. there's almost an expectation that trump is going to win. i think it's a kind of, you know, it's almost a defense mechanism against the 2016 election for those people who were very upset that trump did win. they're now, you know, there was an expectation widely that hillary clinton would win, andic people now are not wanting to get let down or hurt or shocked again. they're resigning themselves to a trump victory, those people who think it would be a cataclysm. there are many of those people in other countries. and i also think that this is already beginning to complicate
the 60s, cataclysm could have resulted because of the encroachments of the soviet union. hard to imagine there might not have been a nuclear exchange in europe then. the lesson of history, you confront threats early so they do not metastasize. what the speaker did here with the leadership of the president is a really remarkable and strong moment, as we like to talk about. he may have come to it late, but that doesn't matter. this is like the prodigal son, right? we celebrate when we get the right result. >> right. it turns out the big winner of this congress is president joe biden. punch bowl news points out house republicans came into the 118th congress with big plans. they were going to cut taxes and spending, impeach president joe biden and members of his cabinet, and use their leverage to force democrats to accept stringent, new border security
republicans have had in modern history. they're now operating with a 2-seat majority, soon to be a 1-seat majority. so they have to break democrats. they have to channel all of the frustration and rage and anger the american people feel over the border cataclysm, and they have to direct that that against the opposition of congressional democrats to any form of tangible border security. here, in my opinion, is how you do that. every single day you come back in, you vote on a different element of border security. hour after hour through the day, through the night, through the weekend. and you expose vote by vote by vote how extreme, how radical, how insane, how deluded and dangerous the democrats have become in their open borders obsession. and then by the time you reach and inform the whole country, you've laid bare just how out of

if he's convicted of uninterrupted cool i would support him. obviously. it's just a sense that people have been wrong about his demise before. after the access hollywood tape, there was a moment, after january 6th, there was a moment when it looked like, okay, this guy's gonna be assured of the national stage and never heard from again. because of that people don't want to get too far ahead and also they think there will never be summit moment where it all collapses. they will never be a bankruptcy event in his political capital. but i also think people are under estimating what a political cataclysm his conviction in an election year would be. it's weird to me how saying when everyone seems about this that's running the republican party. >> i think most people, if you woke up tomorrow and you are accused of overthrowing the government denounced eight you'd want to trial as quickly as you can to prove they're innocent.
republican party and the degradation that's taken place. it wasn't that long ago that somebody who has engaged in this conduct and facing charges like this would not even be remotely considered for an office of public trust much less the presidency of the united states. here we are where the political party that should have protected us from this moment has completely abdicated its responsibilities. so i certainly understand why we are looking to all of the other institutions of our constitutional system to protect us against this cataclysm. >> yeah, i mean, notably when i asked if the republican party was a threat his answer was the republican party doesn't exist, doesn't even see it as a party. i'm going to do two things. i do want to sort of run this down and flesh this out because, like me, our viewers have honorary law degrees by this point but i have to sneak in a quick break. we will let andrew respond to the legal questions on the other side of it. please don't go anywhere. de of t

believe that some maga republicans were willing to default and force global economic cataclysm to harm the presidents reelection. senior biden adviser tells me, but also that many non maga republicans ultimately could be induced not to go that far. the idea here is that biden's calculus to separate the maga extreme from the greater republican party might be working. and i wonder if you think that is, in fact, the calculus, matt dowd? >> i mean, i think that biden's focus calculus is that they figured strategically that could happen. but keep in mind, this was on a pending economic collapse that could be an economic collapse of our country in the, you know, -- credit to the united states was on the line. and so, it was really the sort of house on fire moment, where kevin mccarthy finally, you know, said, i'm going to be the adult in the room and go along with this. i think what is about to happen, and give kevin mccarthy credit.
