[laughter] [applause] . >> tonight former police officer michael fanone after fighting off an insurrection. when all in starts, right now. >> good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. we have just learned the supreme court of united states of america, the highest court of the land, we'll tackle the most pressing challenge american democracy has faced in more than a century. just a few hours ago the court said it will hear oral arguments to determine if donald trump, the man who incited a deadly insurrection, almost exactly three years ago, in an explicit attempt to overturn american democracy, we'll be eligible to run for president so he can finish the job he started. those arguments will begin a little over one month from now, on february 8th. that's an expedited timeline as far as this court is concerned. this decision from the court is in response to that ruling from the colorado state supreme court back on december 19th

he uses an example that former president trump didn't tell people to go into the capitol. but that ignores the whole big lie that he spread, the december 19th tweet telling people to come to washington, d.c., not telling people to go home for the three hours. so it is an argument but it's not a very fulsome argument. so i find it hard when the 14th amendment section 3 is all about engaging in insurrection or rebellion for you not to get into the facts related to the very essence of that amendment. and since that argument and this brief from president trump was actually pretty late in the brief, it shows that it wasn't the argument they're really hanging their hat on. and i don't see how the supreme court can really analyze this issue without considering the insurrection piece of it. >> well, that would be curious because of course as you well know they're not a trial court, they don't want to do a trial. but this is all going to come up. i bet they do not want any part of this. but sorry, supreme court justices, you're up. marcus childress, tim parlatore,

depositions and collected more than 140,000 documents. and finally the week of december 19th the committee showed us its full hand. >> referring donald trump to the justice department for criminal prosecution. >> for four different crimes. including obstruction of an official proceeding. on january 6th, 2021. >> the whole purpose and obvious effect of trump's scheme were to obstruct, influence and impede this official proceeding. >> conspiracy to defraud the united states. conspiracy to make false statements and perhaps the most grave referral the one for aidings and assisting an insurrection. >> anyone who insights the others for rebelling, assists in doing so or gives aid and

what donald trump started at the election and what happened on the 6th, that is one story. they're not two separate stories. and i think what the video shows us is that exact point. the political coup created the fertile ground for what happened and the violence that took place. donald trump, with his words of incitement, created, again, the grounds for what happens on the 6th. donald trump was the person who first, with his tweet on december 19th, be there and be wild. he was the one who announced the rally on the sixth. all of it is connected. >> he said, it will be wild. how do prosecutors now use this potentially as evidence? could they? chesbro is indicted in georgia, in that indictment, those charges there. he's unindicted in jack smith's case, but the only person indicted there is trump. >> i think in the jack smith case, it could potentially be evidence to flip one like him. i'm sure jack smith is looking for ways he can get cooperators. that's what prosecutors always want. here showing chesbro on the

>> right, so i think that's what we're all looking for right now. i did a word search on the indictment and figured out that the phrase unindicted coconspirator occurs about 89 times in this indictment. as a prosecutor when you see unindicted coconspirator who's known to the grand jury you begin to think about someone who's cooperating with the investigation. whether there are 89 here or not remains to be seen but as you read through the acts being charged in the rico conduct it seems a key moment in this indictment willis has a voice inside the room. in kaufman county when go in to illegally access voting machines and they're unindicted coconspirators, same in this december 19th meeting in the

court. so they weren't even relying on the advice that trump says they gave him. >> we're trying to load up a sound bite from january 6th hearings where the lawyers are talking about that december 18th meeting and what was happening and describing the fighting that was happening inside the oval office meeting that started in the oval office and spilled out to the residence. we heard so much about that meeting and this indictment, we didn't hear as much about it in the jack smith indictment. >> it was interesting. jack smith was laying out a timeline and had a number of tweets that followed from donald trump in the wee hours of december 19th, but didn't include the details of that meeting on december 18th. there may be some reasons for that if he has witnesses that were inside that office, but he doesn't feel confident enough that he wants to lay out everything those witnesses have said. maybe they're not signed up as cooperators, there could be any number of reasons he didn't want to commit in writing to a

part of the way you do that as a prosecutor, you look for location information. you look for device information, twitter, they store and collect your precise location information unless you disable the setting. they can say information like jbs, release precise location information, being exactly where he was at the time and date that the tweets were sent. they can also have information about the device being used, and the ip addresses, which is like a digital address. all of those things are going to let the prosecutors be confident in saying that this tweet was tweeted by donald trump. >> and i'm assuming the tweets we are talking about include the tweets he sent on january 6th as the insurrection is unfolding, most famously a 2:24 pm, mike pence didn't have the courage to do what should've been done to protect our country and constitution. of course, the december 19th tweet of 2020, a big protest on jittery, 60 there, we'll be wild. they seem instrumental in

it's donald trump, but in court under the rules of evidence, you have to actually show that chain for foundational purpose. >> part of what we're looking at here is the cause and the fact that i'm sure you'll remember that the january 6 select committee put together in montage, the response that that december 19th tweet got from extremists. take a look. >> it's saturday, december 19th, the year is 2020 and one of the most historic events in american history has just taken place. president trump in the early morning hours today tweeted that he wants to the american people to march on washington, d.c. on january 6, 2021. >> and now donald trump is calling on his supporters to descend on washington, d.c., january 6th. >> he is now calling on we, the
