The very next day, the proud boys got to work. the proud boys launched an encrypted chat called the ministry of self-defense. the committee obtained hundreds of these messages which showed strategic and tactical planning about january the 6th, including maps of washington d.c. that pinpoint the location of police. in the weeks leading up to the attack, leaders in both the proud boys and oath keepers worked with trump allies, when such ally was lieutenant general michael flynn, trumps former nati...

He had very seriously and deeply considered the allegations of fraud, but maybe there wasnt a voter fraud to overturn election, and i witnessed him hard start to explore potential constitutional loopholes more extensively. which then connects to john eastmans theories. >> the startling conclusion is this. even in agreed upon complete lack of evidence could not stop president trump, mark meadows and their allies, from trying to overturn the results of a free and fair election. lets return to the ...

>> katie, we should mention yesterday that the house passed a bill that prevents people from punishing -- it does not look like it is going to go anywhere. katie? >> lindsay riser, thank you. we have more on how they have been trying to spin the story on a ten year old dictum after they reported it was true. a person whos running for governor will join me to discuss. moving on now to the january six investigation, the committee has confirmed that they will hold a key primetime public hearing on ...

>> they try to call a witness, not like all witnessed the stand, but call a witness. that is a no no. the former president, calling a witness. we dont know who this wetness. is but we know one thing, whoever they are, they were concerned enough to avoid present trump and call their lawyer. so that tells you something. and there is more here. eyewitnesses, people who were there when it all went down, telling the committee and the american people actually what they heard and saw. there is the dece...

House on the meeting of december 18th. a group showed up at the white house, including sidney powell and michael flynn and overstock.com ceo patrick burn. they made their way to the oval office. they were able to speak to the president by themselves for some time. they traded insult and even challenges to physically fight. the meeting would last over six hours beginning here in the oval office, moving around the west wing and many hours later ending up in the presidents

Raskin who after several days of sort of wondering just how far pat cipollone had gone, weve learned that he did corroborate key parts of the testimony and probably provided even more and new information which weve also been told. but looking at today, that december 18th tweet is going to be a key part of the hearing today. we know that the meeting that was held at the white house prior to that tweet being issued between rudy giuliani, sidney powell, michael flynn, patrick burn, some of the frin...

Declaring even martial law as we heard others were lobbying trump do. that case will be very consequential in that he is both trying to protect his own reputation but also show that 2ru6r78 trump was aware that people in his own orbit were saying that you cannot possibly do these things and that there was a faction within the white house that was very concerned and very knowledgeable that what they were doing was illegal. >> and interesting to learn too that patrick burn, an ally of former presi...

Insurrection and attempts at actually fomenting a coup, taking place at the white house in the oval office on december 18th and in the lead-up to january 6th. the committee really laid out this sort of pivot that the former president made after december 14th towards looking at extrajudicial, unconstitutional avenues in order to hold on to his power, and the desperation that took place in all of these various directions with these fringe players, people like michael flynn, sidney powell, patrick ...

And this includes sidney powell, michael flynn, patrick burn, whos the former overstock.com ceo, not a name weve heard much from, and emily newman, a former trump administration official. in this meeting theyre talking about how to overturn the election, what they need to do to make sure donald trump stays in power. and in seems to be the inflection point for the committee, because just a few hours after this meeting, donald trump tweets, 1:42 a.m. in the morning, be there on january 6th at the ...

Why does the committee want to meet with him, ali? >> reporter: chris, this points to the december 18th meeting you and i were talking about earlier in the show. its something the committee is going to be talking about a lot today because this is a meeting, in the words of congressman raskin, that was one of the crazyiest meeting in the trump white house between the former president, people like rudy giuliani and sidney powell, but also key white house lawyers, people like hirsh man who weve see...
