muriel bowser in writing rejected it. nancy pelosi, we'd like to know she won't turn over her phone records are the sergeant of arms , so you're pledging a full real investigation, for the right reasons for it we can't let this ever happen again just like we can't let the summer riots of 2020 again. >> remember, congressman ronnie davis that sent the letter to appropriate to preserve all the munication, he's the ranking member on housing ministration, he is also when we've had all o the reports about the changes that need to be made to the capitol police, he has offered them, but you have a democratic chair who stays home and votes proxy instead of holding any of the hearings going forward. if got a chairman of january 6 he said the speaker is off-limits, that cannot be the case we've got to get the answers to those questions and make sure the capital is safe. >> adam schiff, the biggest purveyor of election lies in history. eric can get security clearance and the private sector, we all know all about congresswoman omar,

mirror, muriel bowser. muriel bowser signed the paper. she would not call up the troops. nancy pelosi didn't call up the troops, head of the january 6 committee says nancy pelosi is off limits. they can't talk to her. the sergeant at arms, communication between her and the others. it's not being subpoenaed by the committee. that's why i say it's a shame committee with a predetermined outcome and we need a real committee that's going to ask questions and i'll tell you why i want the answers. because i want our politicians elected officials to a safe and secure and i don't want to ever have another january 6th and this country. we are better than that. >> there is no question. not a single member on the committee didn't vote for impeachment. every single one of the members on the committee voted to impeach my father. isn't it also really interesting that, i was there at the time. do you remember when they burn down the church across the white house. they were burning courthouses. police stations all across the country. seattle and portland in chicago and placing bricks on t

and when will nancy pelosi or muriel bowser be subpoenaed to testify before this holier-than-thou sanctimony has january 6th committee that has the likes of adam schiff, the guy that led three plus long years about election integrity issues that never happened? he lied over and over again about russian collusion. ask yourself this question, if the true purpose of the committee is to understand what happened so that it can never can yougain, how possibly ignore the issue of rejecting the national guard that the president called up? the only reason i can think of is the committee is playing partisan politics and it hasas a predetermined outcome. all they want to do is bludgeon and blame trump again. everybody on the committee voted to impeach trump post presidential -- his post presidential service. the books are cooked here that is why congressman jim jordan and congressman banks were barred from the committee. we will hear from er them tonight. keep in mind every single member of the january 6 committee, as i said, two democrats, republicans voted to impeach donald trump. over the weekend on

bowser? look at the cbs poll buried by the news organization or so-called news organization. a vast majority of americans believe january 6 was a protest that went too far. however, according to the political class, this was a violent insurrection caused by donald trump who called for a peaceful protest carried out by a group of people who refuse to accept the results of 2020. we have been hearing all day that anyone who ever cast down election results is a monster. democrats, they have never done the same? you might remember the dirty dossier bought and paid for by hillary clinton that accused donald trump of being a russian asset and a russian helped him win the election in 2016? you might remember the years and years of claims president trump's election was a legitimate. biden and harris echoed this dangerous life. they accused donald trump of cheating with vladimir putin himself. all of this has been debunked completely and they said it over and over again. adam schiff come another show,

mayor muriel bowser to attack on the front porch and she met the tear gas and helicopters with a paintbrush and i remember miami mayor francis suarez, he went on tv and fighting the coronavirus in his own body to speak to the nation of its seriousness. nearly every night i turn on my tv and social mead and see mayor interviewed on the crisis of the day. i must say we've given the nation the leadership it deserves. >> never has it been more important for us to pull together in league, these have been such trying times, but i have never been prouder of how you, the nation's mayors have stepped up to face our shared challenges head-on. this is not the time for shrinking or shallow leadership, instead, we must be bold, decisive, and truthful to the american public. what we're not out of the woods yet, it's clear that vaccines are working, america is back open for business, and there are better days ahead. one big reason for that is the fiscal assistance directed to states and cities, an accomplishment that i personally and this organization are quite proud of. america's mayors had been and stil

muriel bowser is not being subpoenaed. in my understanding, none of their communications are being subpoenaed. if the purpose of the committee is to prevent this from ever happening again, wouldn't those be the people you needed to ask a question mark if you had 20,000 troops, i agree with you: i don't think that they would've happened. >> president trump: and, with a lot less than 20,000 troops. i knew it was going to be a massive rally. this was a protest against the election which they considered to be totally rigged. i was told by so many people up in what we are going down on the 6th." i met with the top people in military and other places. i said "there is a lot of people that will be coming down." i believe it was the biggest crowd of ever spoken to. it was massive. i'm not talking about the people that walked down to the capital. i'm talking about the -- >> hannity: the rally. >> president trump: -- i felt that was going to happen at the rally, whatever you want to call. the people listening to speeches, a lot of d

., muriel bowser, pushing for democrats' federal election overhaul, saying d.c. could help if it was a state. watch this. >> today we're talking about the filibuster but consider this. we wouldn't even be in this situation if washington, d.c. had two senators, the two senators we deserve. maria: so that's what this is all about, sarah. >> yeah, so muriel bowser sort of admitting, saying the quiet part a outloud that the d.c. state isn't about providing d.c. residents with voting rights but it's about a democratic power grab. all of these things are part of the same effort from democrats to sort change the rules of a game that they're losing right now, whether you're talking about filibuster reform or supreme court packing or d.c. d. statehood, democrats want to make structural changes to the system now that that they're finding had that they aren't able to work successfully in it. that was a stunning admission from muriel bowser about what the end goal of d.c. statehood really is. maria: we will leave it there. thanks so much. sarah westwood joining with us the p

anyway, they wouldn't call nancy pelosi, they would call muriel bowser to testify and ask, why didn't you support donald trump's request for the national guard to put greater security measures in place? they would call the capitol police chief who requested literally requested on six separate occasions, the national guard will be called up. bring him in and let them explain why that didn't happen. also the sergeant of arms, they are allowing him text messages and emails? why is that? why was the request denied by bowser? why was a request for the guard denied by nancy pelosi? if you want to prevent this from happening again, and i do, you need to bring those people in. where is the committee investigating the 574 riots from the summer of 2020. those riots left dozens of americans dad to come up more than a couple of police officers injured, many severely. over $2 billion in property damage, looting and arson. and amid lesser hysteria yesterday, the mob, the media actually managed to set a new low for themselves. comparing biden's hateful device of a speech to the gettysburg address? c

muriel bowser mayor of washington, d.c., said wear your mask. she was at a wedding. maskless. she was enjoying the mewses i can, spirit moved her. that is the exception where the covid germs stay away from dancing music you like. this is democrat hypocrisy. and barking orders at american citizens, completely ordering edicts an demands they make of us. elizabeth: that is important point you're making, deroy. swalwell's state of california extended the indoor mask mandate for mid-february. dr. fauci saying because omicron has lesser, less severe implications than the other variants doesn't mean we have to drop our restrictions. everybody is running to florida. florida doesn't have manner dates. aoc went to florida. gretchen whitmer went to florida. eric swalwell goes to florida, running away from the high regulatory states. you know what it feels like de? people are sick of being bullied, rioters go on the streets, shoplifters with smash-and-grab looting, let criminals out on the street. so unfair to law-abiding americans. your word on that? >> double standard. again, i think it

but may your muriel bowser said there is not a formal process for that. >> i don't know exactly what they will show other than that they have a religious objection. >> someone basically to get sophia tested that they have an exemption question work >> yes. >> shannon: well, as many bars and restaurants shutting down again because of omicron, omicron bringing back and popular earlier in the pandemic. calling it a critical revenue streams for the industry. the program ended last june. tennis star novak djokovic is an australian's immigration tonight and his van railing outside of the hotel as he awaits his appeal to be heard. after having visa canceled due to australia's vaccine law. novak djokovic hoping to compete for 21st grand slam title. and california extending indoor mask mandate for another month. now set to expire february 15th, which would mean it would be in effect super bowl lvi to be played in los angeles. in. nfl officials have reportedly explored the possibility of moving the big game out of state. the current covid search with rapidly spreading omicron it is the new cha

mayor muriel bowser. [video clip] >> i know our ability to move forward has been aided by the efforts of the biden-harris administration and the american rescue plan and infrastructure and jobs act. [applause] i am quite sure your cities have had the experience of what we had with the transformative infusion of dollars. thanks to these investments d.c. is set to rehabilitate and replace some of our oldest high cost bridges and highways and replace them with new infrastructure. in addition to traditional infrastructure we are also poised to build out charging stations, more high-speed internet, and we will continue to improve our water infrastructure. we know too we are looking forward to other investments like continuing to reduce prescription drug costs, expanding affordable housing, expanding the child tax care credit, and for goodness sake, having more of our children in pre-k. these are not contentious issues. these are supports that recognize the reality of what everyday americans are experiencing an

one can argue about covid-19 policy, but the notion that muriel bowser of d.c. would ask you to show your vaccination card before going to a restaurant and drawing parallelisms to rights of jews, it's one step from a process of dehumanization that led to them being herded up into the get ghetto, led into cattle cars, and systematically murdered. you try to understand whether it's this congressman or tom massie or marjorie taylor greene or boebert, how they can make these comparisons. >> it's the silencing from republicans who know better. holocaust comparisons should not happen, period, any time for any reason. your book also talks about the rise of the cancel culture and how parties have used it to stifle meaningful debate. what do you mean by that? >> i think we're living in a moment where we have sort of an extreme right and radical left that seem not just impose these kinds of crazy comparisons on us and offend us in every weak moment but to shut down our ability to have dialogue about it, and neither side is exempt from ignorance or tolerance. i think we ne

one is muriel bowser, the mayor of washington, d.c., and the other is speaker pelosi. i can tell you, when the phone calls came to the west wing of the answers was yes, immediate yes. there was no actionable intelligence, there is no request that was ever denied. yet that's the narrative that the january 6 commission continues to put out there. it is just not accurate as it relates to president trump or anybody out in the west wing. >> sean: once they kicked jim jordan and jim banks of the committee and replace them with the two biggest republican from haters, i think the deck was stacked. you got seven democrats and two never trumpers. let's go to the riots. dozens of our fellow americans were murdered in the course of that rioting. thousands of police officers injured. billions of property damage. where is that committee, mark meadows? i have not heard of it. i'm sure they are probably forming it right now, the very same people. do they only care about the one riot that impacts them, but not the riots that impact other americans? >> there are two different committees

responding to a tweet from muriel bowser reminding residents that proof of vaccinations will be required to enter many businesses in the city later this week. congressman davidson tweeting an image of a nazi document with the words, this has been done before, #donotcomply. joining me now ceo national director of the antidefamation league, jonathan is the author of "it could happen here: why america is tipping from hate to the unthinkable and how we can stop it" and also with us cnn political commentator david axelrod. thank you so much for coming on to talk about this. listen, davidson's tweet is still up. he's followed that disgusting comparison with this, let's recall that the nazis dehumanized jewish people before segregating them, imprisoned them before enslaving them and enslaved them before massacring them. give me your reaction. >> well, look, it's clear that the congressman doesn't have a ph.d. in history, let alone common sense. you know, the genocide of 6 million jews, the slaughter of millions of others across europe was the result of a genocidal madman who committed the syste

muriel bowser in washington d.c. defied her own mask mandate at a wedding. gavin newsom gathered with his friends maskless, pelosi, goes to the hair dresser when knob else can -- nobody else can. good news is aoc is paying florida a backhanded comment. she's looking for freedom and good time, she knows where it find it. it's not in new york. interesting. >> harris: we'll need terms and conditions if you coming aoc maskless. all right. hundreds of drivers stranded for nearly a full day in freezing cold. we've been showing you the pictures and interviews. a live report, the massachusettsive -- massive traffic nightmare on i-95 just gripped that area. >> they say in-person school is safe and should be prioritized. that's never good enough for the chicago teacher's union. they will never pass up an opportunity to exert their leverage. >> harris: you got to watch for this. parents want their kids back in the classroom. teachers union say it isn't safe as omicron cases surge. let's look at what's becoming a standoff next. moving is a handful. no kidding! fortunate

mayor muriel bowser said students and staff have to provide proof of a negative test. listen to what dr. james phillips had to say about these rapid tests. >> there is absolutely no way to keep omicron out of the schools. these antigen tests at home simply are not sensitive enough to keep omicron out of our schools. >> so do you think testing for students is an effective solution, especially if the omicron variant seems to be es escaping accuracy on those tests? >> first of all, we know there are no perfect solutions. but we know three things. we novacks nations are critically important. we know wearing masks is critically important and frequent on going testing, whether weekly, every two weeks, during this realtime of crisis with the tremendous spike in covid case, we know those three things, vaccinations, testing, wearing masks are all critically important to maximizing the chance to keep our kids healthy and safe which is paramount and keeping them in school and learning with their peers which they desperately need as well. >> you've been speaking with superintenden

muriel bowser, thank you for hosting us. you're the best. thank you for everything you do. i have the honor of addressing this body many, many times and i've always had enormous respect for the job you do. some of you heard me say before but it is the truth, i ran for the united states senate in 1972 as a 29-year-old kid because i was a local official and was too hard. they know where you live. and so you think i'm kidding. it is not a joke. mayors carry the quality of people's lives on their shoulders. everything you do every day effects their lives more than anything anybody else does and you could makar break a person's day. will a bus get me home on town. it sounds silly, but will the garbage be picked up, will i be safe walking in the park. these are the bigger questions. and could i afford to give my family a good life. will my kids have a chance to get a good job some day. how will i rebuild from the fire of the storm? all of these questions, they're not partisan but tlir practical. people you look to are you, they're the people that they look to, are you. for real.

muriel bowser put out a tweet about new regulations in d.c. proof of vaccination if you go to a restaurant and also a masking order. your republican house colleague, congressman warren davidson of ohio, responded to that with a picture of nazi imagery of a nazi order and wrote, this has been done before, #do not comply. he added a comment. let's recall the nazis dehumanized jewish people before segregating them. a jewish democrat confronted davidson on the floor of the house today and told me, he said i could report this, i told him the use of such imagery wasn't just repugnant and dangerous and false equivalency but deeply offensive and painful for jewish people. i said i'd debate whenever he wants but there's no debate on the offensiveness of this post. >> he's going to raise money on this. he's going to be known. this is the new politics. it's not about -- it's about how can we outrage the other person that just had the greatest outrage. look. you can disagree with vaccine mandates in restaurants. there's some of it i disagree with, but to

joining us now muriel bowser. mayor, thank you so much for being with us. we saw that positive number there. >> thank you. >> some 2,900 staff and family members there. what do you think of that as you head into in-person learning? . >> well, i think that our d.c. health, d.c. public schools, our public charter schools and our families have done a herculean effort to collect almost 50,000 samples yesterday using at-home test kits and uploading their results to our centralized website which gave a chance of the best information how school should proceed. i'm very happy that d.c. public schools are open today. we have had only one school that had to transition totally to virtual learning because of case rates. we have a few classrooms affected. but most importantly, 50,000 kids in d.c. public schools and 50,000 in public charter schools. >> so i want to ask you -- look, i'm a d.c. public school parent myself, sending two little ones off to school. did their little nose tests yesterday. >> thank you. >> my kids actually had covid, unfortunately, over christmas

bowser didn't call him up. to ask whywants didn't they ? because people vote have been kept safe the capital and safe that day. and i don't understand why there's reluctance to installation what's they didn't because it wouldn't work for their narrative if you could loot courthouses. i was told that that'sd an insurrection when it went on for a year prior. but if they could show a divided america while donald trump was president, w w they cd actually blame that on him. yet all the perpetrators of those crimes, all of the cities that were that those things happenedth in all of the legislators that were in charge were all democratsts. that's literally the only common bond during that eighteen months of total chaos in america was that democrats were a part of all of the disasters. so when it's not conducive to the narrative, you don't hear about it whent it is, they cant try to weaponize it against conservatives. you've seen that acrossng the board, right? joe biden was going to be an elder statesman. he was going

joining us now the mayor of washington, dc, muriel bowser. thank you very much for being on the show this morning. can you tell us what is being done to protect the public today in case of any type of violence and also looking back to a year ago where perhaps washington and the city could have done better to protect the capitol? >> well, certainly, mika, our metropolitan police department works hand-in-hand with federal law enforcement and we have been working with them to understand any threats to the district or any threats around the nation. i think one lesson learned from last year was our national intelligence apparatus did not take the threat of white nationalism seriously and did not believe that this domestic threat and people would actually try to take over the capitol with the assistance of the president of the united states. >> that's one. and, also, i think if you could explain to our viewers what happened in the time during the attack where it took so long for more backup to arrive, whether it be from other levels of the governme
