Oh, you think this is just a Community Center . No. Its way more than that. Cause when you hook our community up with the internet. Boom look at ariana, crushing virtual class. Jamol, chasing that college dream. Michael, doing something crazy. This is the place where we can show the world what we can do. Comcast is partnering with 1000 Community Centers to create wifienabled lift zones, so students from lowincome families can get the tools they need to be ready for anything. Oh were ready. What a night. Thank you for watching the big show cnn tonight with its big star d. Lemon right now. I was watching your show. I mean, chris which part . When mccarthy came out and started blaming everybody but the lights in the room for the horrible decision that they had just made. I dont even know what qanon is. Did i say it right . Come on. Yeah. Remember all of the signs in front of the capitol, people coming to kill you . Exactly. That was qanon. That reminded me of, i dont know any david duke . David duke, i dont know. All the time, all the who dat . Yes. It is embarrassing. We used to get into the at this time f time tit for tat. It should be rebranded the trump party right now. Theyre the party of the qanon believers. Theyre the party of i dont have to go on. 61 did it in a hidden ballot. I wonder how many would have been in an open ballot. Well see tomorrow. Not many. These guys wanted to flex up but they didnt have to own the vote, right . Yeah. So you didnt have as many in the secret ballot. I wonder what happens tomorrow, because, you know, that piece that Donie Osullivan. It is amazing. That guy is bringing great work. These are regular American People who are disaffected and frustrated. I remember seeing this with al qaeda and the taliban. Now, they dont have the same Literacy Curve we here and the exposure and the information and all of that, which makes it even worse that people can fall for it, but they can. They can be like, so i support trump and you support trump . And these people are trying to get him and here is how in one step and another step, and now the Republican Party is saying to people in their ranks, it is okay to listen to these guys. Yeah. It is okay. Well, you are what you eat. Im serious. I cant explain to you, i dont even have the words to tell you just how outraged i am and how just infuriating and frustrating the level of hypocrisy is right now. We are not talking about firebrands, right. There are firebrands in the Republican Party. There are firebrands in the democratic party. They say things that are provocative all the time, but no one is saying to them, hey, you should be stripped of your committee. This is lies on top of lies on top of racist on top of antisemitism, on top of all kinds of things that the leader, Kevin Mccarthy, is the majority, right, majority or the Minority Leader. He is the leader of the Republican Party right now, at least in the house, and guess what . He has cosigned everything that Marjorie Taylor greene has done or said by acting the way they did, voting the way they did and doing what they did tonight. More heat on liz cheney than Marjorie Taylor greene, she gets a Standing Ovation . Thats where we are right now. Stop saying, republicans, the media is responsible for Marjorie Taylor greene. Dont paint us all with that brush. Yes, of course i know not all republicans are like that, but your leaders are putting you in a very you gave it a home. You gave it a home. Amen. You dont get a pass. You gave it a home. Yes. And i hope the democrats are wise enough tomorrow to say, hey, representative Taylor Greene, come on down into the middle and i want to ask you some questions about what it is that you disavow. Yeah. I want to ask you, so the jews Shooting Lasers at us from space it is not her. It doesnt represent what thats what she said. Let her Disavow Everything she said and ebxplain why she said them. Yeah. I heard people saying, why are you paying so much attention to Marjorie Taylor greene. Because they just tried to kill us at the capitol, thats why. There you go. And what ill say is i had a neighbor call me and they said, chris, don, do you realize every piece of mail i got as a republican from the Republican Party had aoc on it, that they made her out to be the boogie man . Yeah. It worked. If democrats in this instance dont call out Marjorie Taylor greene, theyre not worth their salt. Yeah. I get it. I got to run. And the news media, same. If you guys dont call it out, you are not worth your salt. And we have to call it in our own ranks. You saw what happened last night, right . When you were beautifully taking people through the rest of the ceremony, the people on fox were savaging us. Oh, i took pictures. Thats what state tv does. They are the media operatives for the rabid right. There are a lot of people in uniform, men and women who wear that Police Uniform every single day of their lives, that didnt go unnoticed it was covered on cnn and msnbc but fox news did not cover it. They had snippets of it but they didnt do walltowall coverage as we did. They were too busy attacking us and talking about the lady who was unfairly ousted for going after lebron james. Well, thats an important story. Well, if the you are trying to code that race matters. No, no, im joking. Come on. I never know with you, don. Your poker face is too good. Hey, i love you. Dont mess when me when im upset. I know, i am too. I will talk about it. This is cnn tonight and im don lemon. We have breaking news. The moment of truth for the gop, or will it be the qop . Not the grand old party but the qanon old party. Is that what they want to be . Irrelevant, racist, Crazy Conspiracists . Fine, if thats who they want to be. Thats who they are. Own it. Congratulations. Liz cheney, who has been fighting for her political life after she voted, she voted her conscience on impeachment, surviving tonights vote to retain her leadership post. Were not going to be divided and that were not going to be in a situation where people can pick off any member of leadership. Think about this. She was in danger of losing her Leadership Position for telling the truth, the truth that the president incited the riot at the capitol and for voting to impeach him. She has eyes. She has a brain. So liz cheney survives, right, she survives, but it is Marjorie Taylor greene who gets a Standing Ovation from qtrumplicans . Think about it this way. One Democratic Congress person told me tonight, really really, i want you to think about this. They told me tonight that they see Marjorie Taylor greene as the Living Embodiment of what happened at the capitol on january 6th. They say if she werent a Member Of Congress that she would have been in the crowd. And thats why it is so insulting and outrageous to them. And the head of the democrats forcing a vote tomorrow on whether to strip her of her Committee Assignments. She offered a nonapology Behind Closed Doors tonight, saying her past comments do not reflect who she is. Past comments that were bigoted, they were antisemitic, advocates executing fellow congress people. These werent comments that were made decades ago in some ignorant misspent youth, right, but it was over the last three years in countless posts and videos. Yet Kevin Mccarthy would have you believe that he doesnt even know how to pronounce qanon. Hmm. I think it would be helpful if you could hear exactly what she told all of us, denouncing qon. I dont know if i say it right. I dont even know what it is. Any from the shootings, she said she knew nothing about lasers or all of the Different Things that have been brought up about her. Okay. Do you believe that . No, you dont believe that, of course. He doesnt believe that. Lets just give him that, that he didnt know what it is. So he has been saying for, what has it been, a week now or so . That he is going to have a conversation with Marjorie Taylor greene. So if youre going to have a conversation with Marjorie Taylor greene about what she said and her qanon beliefs, dont you think you would know about it as the leader who is going to be having the conversation with her . Wouldnt you do your homework . Come on, Kevin Mccarthy. Turnip truck, didnt fall off yesterday. That is insulting. Think about that. Qanon . I dont know what it is. If you are going to be the one who has to talk to this member and figure out what to do with her assignments because of her beliefs as a qanon person, wouldnt you at least figure out what qanon is . He knows. But he thinks youre stupid. But now Marjorie Taylor greene says those comment dont reflect who she is, and for that the qop, the qanon old party, their conference gave a Standing Ovation to a known bigot and Conspiracy Theorists. Let me just remind you what theyre cheering for when they cheer Marjorie Taylor greene. Let me just remind you of those past comments that he says he doesnt really understand, doesnt know about, whatever, and that she says doesnt reflect who she is. The socalled plane that crashed into the pentagon, it is odd theres never any evidence shown for a plane in the pentagon. There is an islamic invasion into our Government Offices right now. Kennedy getting killed in the plane crash, thats another one of those clinton murders, right . 9 11, you know what 9 11 means to all of us, to everyone in this country, to the world. You know that. But to her it wasnt real . Hmm. She harassed david hogg, a parkland shooting survivor, teenager. I remind you, teen ager. She harassed him inside the capitol in 2019 before she was elected to congress. How do you get so much Media Coverage for your group . Who pays for this . March for our life . Yes. A mom enough is enough teenager, do you have a teenager in your family, a child, relative . Did you have one . How would you feel if someone harassed them that way . How would you feel . Shes a Member Of Congress. She said this about muslims living in the united states. If you want islam and sharia law, you stay over there in the middle east. You stay there and you go to mecca and do all of your thing and, you know what . You can have a bunch of wives or goats or sheep or whatever you want, you stay over there. But in america, see, we made it this great, great country. We dont want it messed up. Hmm. Comments dont reflect who she is. So many of them. Thats what republicans excuse me. Thats what Q Trumplicans are applauding when they applaud Marjorie Taylor greene. The qanon caucus in action. Multiple republicans coming to her defense, more than those who spoke out for liz cheney. One Freedom Caucus member reportedly said, seeing cheneys Impeachment Vote was, and im quoting here, like seeing your girlfriend in the opposing teams stands. Republican women yelling, liz isnt your girlfriend. What happened to the party of values, Family Values . What happened to character . What happened to personal responsibility . The Qtrumplican Party had a chance to make a clean break after de ranged conspiracies led to a deadly insurrection. But facts are facts. They want the crazy. The crazy is a feature, it is not a bug. They embrace it. They applaud it. This is the whole thing in a nutshell. They wanted liz cheney to apologize for telling the truth and Marjorie Taylor greene doesnt need to apologize for lying. For threatening and reveling they are in the chaos that she is causing. Thats where the Qtrumplican Party is right now. The Minority Leader, paralyzed in the face of the Qanon Congresswoman. Who is really in charge . Who is really in charge . In fact, that hasnt escaped the notice of the House Speaker nancy pelosi who put out a statement just today calling him the Minority Leader of q california. How can the Republican Party excuse me, the true the Qtrumplican Party go forward if they cant handle their own members . Kevin mccarthy says he wants to lower the temperature but then does nothing about it. And then theres lindsey graham. Rather than me talking about what she may have said, i want to hear from her. You want to hear from her . Lindsey, you want to hear from her . You havent heard enough from her already . Havent we heard enough of her racist, antisemitic, islamo phobic garbage . Havent we heard enough of her attacks on a teenage School Shooting survivor. Her support for ex kecuting democrats . What about her tweets just today, filled with more lies about democrats . What about her interview with the Washington Examiner calling democrats stupid and calling Mitch Mcconnell mr. Big turtle. Lindsey, thats today. How much more do you need to hear . Weve heard plenty from Marjorie Taylor greene. Yet with everything that we have heard the qop is paralyzed. What they dont repudiate they enable. Their words matter. The South Carolina mom, the former qanon fan tells cnns Donie Osullivan this. Reporter when you see the Republican Party failing to call out a Conspiracy Theorist like Marjorie Taylor greene, what message do you think that sends . I think it is saying that theres some truth in what is in there. If theyre not going to call her out on it, then everyone else believing it, there has to be some sort of truth. If theres some truth, why would anybody leave . Reporter you are saying if Senior Republicans arent calling this out, theyre essentially endorsing it in some way . Yeah, i think that anybody that has an affiliation with like a qanon conspiracy, they have no Business Being in government because it is dangerous. Things have the potential to get very dangerous with them because they are thinking that theyre going to have to fight for this country. And now the Qtrumplican Party is going to seem to go down that dangerous path. What they dont repudiate they enable. This week from marco rubio, the most this is the most marco rubio thing ever, admitting it is legit to report on a politicians Conspiracy Theories but going on to say, dont make them famous, as if the problem is reporting the truth and not the horrible things that Marjorie Taylor greene has said and done. In the middle of all of this there is this Kevin Mccarthy tweet just today paying tribute to brian sicknick, the Capitol Police officer who lost his life fighting the rioters on january 6th. Officer sicknick is an american hero. He made the ultimate sacrifice to defend our democracy. He deserves to be honored. But i want you to look at that tweet again. Okay. Look at that tweet again. For Kevin Mccarthy to tweet about the violent mob that desecrated the capitol while he pals around with the president who incited that mob is and Marjorie Taylor greene by the way, is a really stunning example of trying to have it both ways. He had to run to maralago with his tail tucked between his legs after one failed attempt to embrace the truth that we all know, the truth we all saw on that dark day. There is responsibility for wednesdays attack on congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding. Just a week later he backed down. I dont believe he provoked if you listen to what he said at the rally. If the Republican Party cant disavow qanon and Marjorie Taylor greene, how can you ever excise what Mitch Mcconnell called a cancer on the gop . Instead, we get false equivocancy. We are talking about statements that were made before she was ever a candidate to congress, and that i think has some bearing here. On the other hand, you have statements from ilhan omar and
