marshall there and i love it we will see where it goes. there are rumors they is chatting with schumer. come to come agreement where it would not be a debt increasing bill but it doesn t sound like a huge appetite for a lot more spending or tax increases from joe manchin, so whether they get something like that across the finish line between now and election day, i m hoping sounds dubious and not plausible but i will just hold my breath figuratively until that moment because they are certainly trying. at least on the leadership side. bret: january 6th committee hearing today dealt with efforts by donald trump, then president, to put some pressure on state authorities to decertify for joe biden and have alternative elect electors for him. anything that would say to me that you have a doubt deny your

information that we got today that we haven t had for well over a year. the american people have largely processed almost all of this. i mean, almost entirely. and if you have any doubt about that or need affirmation for it, the other testimony was provided by brad raffensperger, republican secretary of state from georgia who just winning a republican primary in georgia. people have processed all of this, right? i think in the end it does expose democrats to some problems of not focusing on things like inflation and the economy. bret: 10 seconds here. sorry, leslie, go ahead. no pressure. you know, when you have texas saying we are not going to accept the election results, maybe we do need more americans to tune in to something like this just to see how close it was, what was happening and what was being asked of these individuals. that man s testimony made me want to go back to church on sunday. bret: all right, panel. thank you.
