asking the question of whether trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss including his role in the january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol, make him ineligible to hold the presidency again. at least 20 of those challenges remain unresolv. four of them were filed just this week, in florida, illinois, virgin,nd massachusetts. colorado and maine are the only two states to have already kicked trump off the primary ballot. trump has appealed both decisions. his colorado case is set to be the first to go to the supreme court. if or when the court takes up the case is yet to be seen, but it could come as early as tomorrow when the justices hold one of their regular meetings. and joining me now is colorado secretary of state jena griswold. secretary, thank you for being here. walk us through what happens and what the timeline looks like for you? because i understand tomorrow is actually the deadline for you all to decide who is on the ballot. so how does what the supreme

president. we begin tonight with the 2024 election cycle that's already under way. nearly three years after a heavily armed trump incited mob attacked not just the u.s. capitol building but also democracy and the rule of law. tomorrow, president joe biden will deliver his first major re-election speech of the new year. marking the third anniversary of the january 6th attack. the speech will amp up his warning about the fragility of america's democracy at a time when the stakes couldn't be higher. we're in a defcom one moment and the biden administration is focused on the message that american democracy would not survive another trump presidency. how the american public feels about that message, not so simple. according to a new poll by "the washington post" and the university of maryland, a quarter of americans say it is probably or definitely true that

a lot of voters are saying i'm not tuned in yet. i'm going to see who the republican nominee is going to be. once it is a head-to-head, i think the contrast is going to become more clear and the minds of voters will be more made up to start to lean more into the good side of things, the pro-democracy, the pro-economy, and as long as inflation keeps going down and interest rates go down, that's going to make a big difference. >> molly, you have been critical of the media because the media has a role to play, and it has not shown itself up to the task of fighting fascism, but i'll let you elaborate on that. how the media plays this and whether they try to treat trump as this normal candidate, that is the factor, isn't it? >> oh, yeah. and actually, there was a headline from the associated press today that i saw this morning, i couldn't even believe it. it was some say, you know, january 6th was bad. others say storming the capitol is -- i mean, it wasn't quite that bad, but it was shockingly

packening, and even right now in the negotiations about foreign aid, it's been president biden who has put forward additional money for border patrol agents, for technology, nonprofits on the ground. there are solutions out there, but republicans don't want solutions. they don't want to fix anything. they want to demonize and attack immigrants. >> you combine these two stories, you have donald trump and republicans using white scare, sort of brown scare, trying to scare their mainly white base about brown people to get themselves back into power. they don't want to do anything to fix the issue. they just want the power. for donald trump, he wants the cash. >> 100%. donald trump is essentially in my opinion broke in american politics, he's demonized our institutions. he's trying to tear down our institutions. literally tried to overthrow an election, and an insurrection against our capitol. this is someone who has no core. his core value is making money off the american people. he believes he should be in

the fbi instigated the january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol. that, of course, is a false conspiracy theories promoted by right wing media and repeatedly denied by federal law enforcement. the numbers are even more telling when you break it down by trump versus biden voters. 44% of those who voted for trump say the fbi instigated the attack, compared to 10% of biden voters. the results confirm that misinformation about january 6th is widespread, as the united states heads into a presidential election year. during a campaign in which the leading republican candidate has repeatedly expressed support for those who participated in the insurrection. it's also a stunning instance of people developing a far fetched conspiracy theory about an event we literally watched unfold for hours on live television. an event that was investigated by a bipartisan house committee that interviewed more than 1,000 people. who were witness to or involved

scene of the shocking violence in the u.s. capitol building with a message. >> the former president who lies about this election and the mob that attacked this capitol could not be further away from the core american values. >> that message is one he then took to philadelphia's independence hall as the mud term elections were starting to kick into high gear and a clear recognition that the sway had not ebbed. the speech underscoring that the campaign predictions would break with the hold on the gop. that had been bourn out, one that elevated a political message that would resinate with voters just a few months later in the midterms. >> as i stand here tonight, a quality and democracy are under assault. we do ourselves no favor to pretend otherwise. >> each of these speeches in the

he is saying out loud what is chief of staff and his lawyer told us what the documents reflect, what everybody else has said. he now is saying it himself. that's important, let's that's direct and not circumstantial evidence. and he is an important voice here in part because of this principal, but also because he is a victim. i think it was you lawrence who said earlier, he has a human dimension of this, he was 40 feet from the rioters as he's fleeing the senate chamber down to a secure location in the capitol. they get that close to him, chanting that he should be hung. so there is a human dimension on top of the anger principle that he provides that will be important. but again there are a lot of important witnesses. there's a lot of strong evidence that is coming and that is why jack smith is holding a full house, not a pair of twos. >> that's gonna have to be tonight's last word. tim heaphy, barbara mcquade and

the pause that donald trump's criminal defense lawyer says donald trump was asking for was a crime and it was the very last crime that donald trump and his coconspirators asked vice president to commit. they asked him to commit the crime many times. but the very last time donald trump and his coconspirators asked mike pence to commit that crime was not before mike pence went to the capitol on january six to preside over electoral college vote count ceremony. it was at 11:44 pm on january 6th, after the trump mob attacked the capitol, attacked police officers, said they wanted to kill mike pence, so they wanted to kill nancy pelosi. after the was capitol under attack for hours on end with donald trump doing nothing to stop it, hours after the trump criminal mob was driven out of the capitol building and in the middle of a congress's continuation of the official process of counting the electoral votes, at 11:44 pm, john eastman put his latest

that relentless pressure campaign against mike pence and then when you read in the indictment, donald trump ultimately said if you don't do what i'm telling you to do, i am going to have to criticize you publicly. and then mid-attack in the capitol, he sends out a tweet blaming mike pence. mike pence didn't have the courage to do what he should've done to protect our democracy and our constitution which inspired the mob to want to hang mike pence. i will never understand why it took so long for mike pence to come to the place where apparently he now resides, which is fully blaming donald trump for not only tried to overturn american democracy but endangering his life, the life of his family, the life of all the police officers at the capitol and everyone who is in the u.s. capitol building that day. he will ultimately be a

he was asked several questions about understanding his rights, understanding what was happening. he was even asked what he was pleading to the charges that he faces. there are four of them. largely conspiracies related to the 2020 election disenfranchising people's votes, obstructing the congressional proceeding, defrauding the united states government. and he said in these words, not guilty. that is how he said it. and so trump before the judge -- he also had to speak directly to her tos assert that he understood that it was his right to remain silent.assert that hed that it was his right to remain silent. and if he spoke it could be used against him in court. he acknowledged that he understood that and also that it would be a crime while he is out on bail to intimidate witnesses or potential jurors in this case. and so that was something that the judge made sure that he understood. so this is one of the procedures, quite procedural, but quite a moment for this courthouse, a courthouse right across the street from the u.s. capitol building where the riot
