Mexico mexico has a responsibility. first and foremost, to its own citizens, to establish safet and security within its ow territory. and to those who visit its country as well. but first, let s get some new reaction from lawmakers, fox host, tucker carlson s depiction of january 6th a being a largely peaceful joining me now, nbc s juli tsirkin is on capitol hill onc again for us so, julie, what are you hearing? yeah, there is no questio there, fatigue, not only fro democrats, but republicans whe it comes to january 6th. you know, or hearing from both sides of the aisle, not just o the release of these tapes t carlson, but also on thi newly-created investigativ committee in the house, led by a republican of georgia wh himself was accused of giving chore potentially to rioters the days before the attack o the capitol. what you re gonna hear in thes two soundbites that will pla for you, one of them is from stacey plaskett, has a lot o experience in this she actually was one of th
By the way, mike pence actuall addressed off turn a speech, which i thought was important, i give him credit for that, he called that out and said, this was not a tourist day, this is a disgrace to anything but that, call it that, right? it was a horrible day for country. i think that is important fo him to say it. but i don t say any of these coming back when they re s loyal to these false narrative that they ve been pushed on, especially, you know, from fox news i would ask josh, m director, to put up a soundbit right now, it s from tim hayden best to get it for th 16 committee, talking about th tucker carlson cherry pick i you well, the switch, ho dangerous it is. let s play that now. it is a totally false narrative, alex, to pick and choose some bits of video wher there are people takin pictures inside the capitol, there are people walking through, not assaulting police officers police officers did their job, they did not facilitate entr or riot. they tried their best to resis violence and then to de-escalate once people were
Inside, because they wer outnumbered. in your role, forme homeland security official counterterrorism official, olivia, how dangerous is wha tucker carlson is doing? it is exponentially dangerous. i ve been monitoring what being said on social media, it is incredibly undermining of our government institutions. it s incredibly undermining of law enforcement. and the worst part is, it is fueling the flames to encourag this type of violence in the future again there has been n accountability thus far. i hope there is accountability for some of these people tha are leading our country down the stark path this is a very dangerous time, what they re doing, they r feeling this type of patriotis that i say in quotes these are the people tha showed up on january 6th, wh said they were there because i was their patriotic duty there s people that served time, right? they re being held accountable there is - who got caught up in this whol
it s another signal for power, she s been very deft, she s been very deft about using and demonstrating he power. she is not the only craz republican in the house, there is a number of folks that have been less skilled at this, you don t see louis gohmert, mat gates, really throwing their weight around to the success that marjorie taylor greene has. i think she knows she ha control of kevin, if kevin wants to keep a speaker ship he has to keep the maga wing o the party happy. she cut a deal with him in order to, you know, get powe within the caucus. she really is the person pulling the strings in a lot o areas. not every area, but in, a lo of areas, that s why mccarthy doing things that are self sabotaging really. like giving this video t tucker carlson, like not going to kyiv, but having delegation to go visit january six rioters. this is not good politics in swing states this is not good politics fo many members of its conference that he has to do in order t keep the merger taylor greene
Optic, even if in the long run it s not going to make a difference as a former prosecutor, i ca tell you that something of thi nature is not something fo prosecutions that ar outstanding moving forward what it does is gives them the presumption the justice system has not worked properly fo these people o insurrectionists, for th people who sought to overthrow the united states government so, from the public perception not only when you re talking about this, but you re addin on to it, for example, the conversation we are just havin about tucker carlson, cherry picking the narrative around january 6th. it makes the job of prosecutor who s looking t continue prosecuting and holding those accountable, those insurrectionists have no yet had trouble, much more difficult, much more challenging, because i ultimately biases the court of public opinion, in a way tha is not fair. speaking of charles, charles, a new york times article today is arguing that the lega jeopardy fox news face
Donald trump, or pence who might return to normal conservatism i don t know, you know, th fact that he continues t stonewall and not cooperat with a legal process als raises a question of whether he s actually really serious and capable of taking this thing on you know, as we talk abou donald trump and how h ferments his followers, how he still leads all the polls righ now, pretty much most of them, unless you throw desantis in the mix. does mike pence really have chance to attract any of those voters because trump has if this thre to since january 6th actually, it started on januar 5th. so, will any of those voters say, you know what mike pence is right, we ar gonna go into his camp and leave trump? i don t really see that happening. the reason i say that is, if you look at social media and the horrific messages that are out there after tucker carlson released and distorted the january 6th footage, and how embedded all these people ar into those narratives, which
He does modern family . people see fox as the official mouthpiece of the administration. how do you see it? i think this is a bigger trend in our media, which is an attempt to report with balance has been displaced by communities. you know, people trying to correct for coverage in other places. mouthpiece of th tucker carlson said you shouldn t believe anythig you see on other channels. this fake news is championed by the president of the united states. that s confusing for people. it makes it harder for all of us to get to what is real. what is real here in this debate is that you have an objectively
