Of the last several months on the senate side, doing things like clarifying the vice presidents, quote, ministerial role in the election, making very clear that what mike pences belief in the law was, is actually what the law reflects. that the vice president cant just come in and unilaterally throw out slates of electors that says that the president lost to keep the president in power. theyre just making that crystal clear. and it also raises the threshold for forcing a vote on objecting to ele...

By the fbi must be opened. in order to open a criminal investigation, you simply need to have whats called adequate predication. its a fancy term for "enough evidence." some evidence that suggests that there may have been a federal crime committed. i think we have passed that threshold, and i believe, if the secret service really did nothing wrong, they should welcome that kind of a full, aggressive, fbi investigation of their conduct. because these text messages could have been historic evidenc...

Question. it may have been the straw that led him to resign, but as is true of a lot of other figures in the administration, it wasnt enough for him to say publicly a lot of the things we are going to be hearing now. so, he needed to reach another threshold in order to be willing to talk. and i think that that is something thats been replicated by other members of that administration. >> subpoena, youre saying? >> i think that thats a legitimate question. if some of these things are of public im...
