Matlock. hopefully with a little more rigor but maybe as much panache as a solid closing argument that people recognize from courtroom toov dramas. they said yes, we re playing highlights, some video testimony you re heard before, but wrapping it all together with a concept that jumped out to me yesterday, criminal intent. joe and others know that s not a legislative concept. it s not a concept for the next election, although voters can consider whether they want to re-elect anybody affiliated with the violent overthrow of the government, but it s a concept in criminal law to show o show not only did donald trump do and say many bad things a leader should not do but we might call debatable, but the committee seemed to show evidence in summation that he also exhibited the criminal intent to knowingly in a premeditated fashion commit crimes against the united states and against the peaceful transfer of power. and that came through very starkly yesterday, and that is
Got a little more detail on what the committee had uncovered from this trove of communications they got from the u.s. secret service, including warnings back in december coming to the u.s. secret service from people saying, look, extremist groups are planning on go to the capitol, they want to kill people while they are there. i want to go back to the cassidy hutchinson testimony. she was such a bombshell witness in the public hearing. listen to what she said in the video testimony they showed yesterday. he had said something to the effect of, i don t want people to know we lost, mark. this is embarrassing. figure it out. we need to figure it out. i don t want people to know we lost. he said mark, you can t possibly think we re going to pull this off. that call was crazy. he looked at me and shook his head and said, no, cass, he knows it s over. he knows he lost, but we re going to keep trying. one of the hardest things for this committee to do is show what donald trump was actually thinking because so many people around him have refused to
Arguments really going to sway a judge? are they gonna sway the prosecutors? it looks like she s no mayor garland, that s a good thing, right? it doesn t appear that the investigators in georgia are worried about timelines and everything else. they just wanna get to this investigation. or any of these delay tactics by kemp going to work? i doubt it. let s remember that governor kemp is a key witness in this case. he personally received calls from the former president and others asking for a special election. his testimony is very relevant to the very things that the special grand jury is looking into. the timing of all of this as i understand from public reports is the da tried to allow the governor to testify through video testimony earlier on and there is various back and forth that led to now having to call for his personal appearance before the grand jury. i cannot say that this is done to have any sort of political
Been outright disrespectful and has shown that he doesn t truly understand the scope of the investigation going on here. and i think it really does underscore that willis team has truly in this effort shown that they re have interested in creating a full anti-racketeering case against former president trump and his allies here, showing that they ve already gotten nearly 120,000 documents from kemp s team and so far have made it clear they are not interested in potentially video testimony or just a written statement, as kemp s people offered over the course of the summer, but they want him to come in and answer direct question. so far, willis has actually been fairly successful in the courts in compelling testimony from resistant witnesses, and that s actually the point of setting up the special grand jury, to make sure that agents like raffensperger, the secretary of state, and kemp and giuliani would have to testify here. she also got some good news yesterday, where courts in colorado and new mexico made it

And pro-cop. president biden still recovering from covid made those remarks during a virtual address to the national organization of black law enforcement executives. biden rarely comments publicly on the insurrection and has held off on mentioning the january 6th committee s work saying congress should act separately. but of course, the two men could be on a collision course for a rematch of the last election and f-they both run again in if they both run again in 2024. congressman elaine luria, a congresswoman of the house select committee has revealed new testimony showed how former president trump edited his speech meant to condemn the insurrection. she tweeted this. it took more than 24 hours for president trump to address the nation again after his rose garden video on january 6th in which he affectionately told his followers to go home in peace. there were more things he was unwilling to say. now, here s some of that video testimony. i m not sure when those conversations began because they

January 6th. one of the committee members, congresswoman elaine luria, released previously unseen video testimony this morning, highlighting trump s reluctance to give a speech condemning the violence on the day after the insurrection. it shows trump crossed out lines from his prepared remarks on january 7th including this one, highlighted in yellow, addressed to the rioters. it said, quote, i want to be very clear, you do not represent me. he crossed that out. cnn s ryan nobles starts us off from our coverage from capitol hill with a closer look at the new testimony released today and the witnesses close to trump who could be appearing in front of the committee soon. the january 6th select committee is far from done. the committee will be in order. planning hearings for september and promising their august will be spent expanding an already sprawling investigation. we anticipate talking to additional members of the president s cabinet.
