Love for donald trump. And they re tried to requite as carefully as they can. A leadership shakeup expected this week. House republicans look to oust congresswoman liz cheney from her number three posts. What that will mean for the party and its ultimate surrender to donald trump. Good morning everybody. Happy mother s day. It is sunday, may 9th. I m lindsey reiser. And i m kendis gibson. Looks like we ve made. It looks anything hitting us is looks like we made. It looks like needed. And we have a team for us on this mother s day. From london to here in the united states. With the very latest on all of our top stories this morning. But we are going to begin with that breaking news. That uncontrolled chinese rocket reentering earth s atmosphere. Just hours ago. And after months of speculation about exactly where and when it was going to land. It looks like the u. S. Is in the clear. Chinese state media saying that the debris field here, fell right here. The rocket landed in the indian o
Tourists to you? come on. We knew the gop would try to rewrite history. We just didn t know it would be this soon. I ll talk to former top trump white house official who accepts the election results. My conversation with her is ahead. Plus many of us have seen this haunting video, congresswoman jayapal hiding. That was on january 6. What s her message to republicans who want to move on. I ll ask her. Israeli/palestinian conflict shows no signs of letting up. What do jewish americans think of the power imbalance there? jeff bezos is rich enough to buy a yacht for his yacht. How much power does his cash give him? my interview with author brad stone. Good evening, gaslighting is an i tempt to make one question one s own memory, perception and judgment. To make someone think they might be crazy for having ever thought otherwise. Let me begin tonight by asking you this what do you remember about what happened in nation s capital on january 6? while a lot of us predicted republicans would tr
Shamelessly went with this week. So was january 6th an insurrection or a mob of misfits. There was no insurrection and to call it an insurrection in my opinion is a bold faced lie. You didn t know it was a video from january the 6th you would actually think it was a normal tourist visit. And now they found a new champion to help carry this message deeper into crazy when they purged congresswoman liz cheney of her house leadership role for refusing to fall in line with the republican lie that the election was somehow stolen from donald trump and they elected instead trump s super fan elise stefanik to replace her. What role did these republicans play in the assault on our democracy? that s the question i have and i m sure after hearing those asinine statements you might have the same questions. We may soon get some answers because friday a group of house democrats and republicans reached a deal to establish a bipartisan commission to investigate the insurrection. The proposed commission
And now cheney on a media blitz. Remember the ousting from leadership caused by one thing, holding trump accountable for his actions that led to january s riot on the capitol. In a few hours cheney will make the case once again on the sunday morning talk shows. Here s a preview of the interview with abc news. Should kevin mccarthy be willing to speak, testify before that commission? he absolutely should and i wouldn t be surprised if he were subpoenaed. I think that he clearly and said publicly he s got information about the president s state of mind that day. I would hope he doesn t require a subpoena but i wouldn t be surprised if he were subpoenaed. House minority leader mccarthy doesn t seem too happy with the plan of a 9/11style commission to investigate the riot. His view is that a bipartisan commission is just too narrow. Somehow finding a way to bring last summer s riots into the mix and not just him. Far right members of the republican party are singing in unison in an effort
Well, hey there. It s good to be with you, tonight. This week, president biden will head to louisiana to pitch his getting america back on track tour. And also, to promote his jobs plan. This hour we will dig into his exclusive interview with msnbc s craig melvin, including his plans for immigration. His multitrilliondollar economic package and his thoughts on race in america. From nbc news world headquarters in new york, i m joshua johnson. Welcome to the week. Joe biden has probably attended many joint sessions of congress. On wednesday night, he addressed a joint session for the first time as president. The speech capped his first 100 days in office. It s an arbitrary marker but it s good time to take stock of his administration so far. We will see how the next 1,300plus days in his term measure up to these hundred. Still, this checkpoint coincides with some major accomplishments. His $1. 9 trillion american rescue plan. And as of yesterday, 100 million americans are fully vaccinate
