if i was the doj, abidin doj, ly i'd probably be redacting everything other than the word and o the so we're going to have to see what they kick back the one good thing that this judge did say is that heil will take a look at if it's too heavily redacted, he will do so himselfi . sosng he's encouraging them to y and give us some sort of clarity. i thinkomio , though, there's a lott of people here that are just waiting, including the trumpe team, to see what the basis was when you have a coordinating president, i mean, any person, but let alone a president, it just doesn't make sense. you know, s professor, it'sen the same office>> the same peopd involved in an operation s crossfire hurricane. i would t think thathe director wray might have cleaned up that officer , but apparently he has not. i think. whatever justification he gave this magistrate who had a clear bias against donald trump, i've got i've got to t believe they want it redactedo for other reasons. that's what my gut tells me. what does your gut tell you? well, first of all, i predictedi exactly what p the judge would o thi

pointing to the gravity of secrets, the doj said some fbi counter intelligence personnel and doj attorneys required additional clearances to even review the documents >> my father-in-law said he has nothing to hide. he did nothing wrong >> lara trump says the investigation has been political. >> this is such a bad look i think for the department of justice now because it goes to further the notion that they are targeting donald trump >> reporter: today on social media, mr. trump reacted to that officials say the evidence was placed for the photo. evidence photo calling it terrible the fbi threw documents all over the floor. officials say the evidence was placed for the photo >> and kelly joins me now. >> well, the former president has asked the co we're waiting another federal judge to rule on a key decision that could determine the course of this investigation. what is next >> well, the former president has asked the court to appoint that independent observer to review all the seized documents. the department of justice has argued that mr. trump's situation here does not qualify for that

doj wanted it done by october 17. found a middle there. >> we speak about the documents as if they fit into a neat pile or one. is it possible that a documents can be both covered by executive privilege and class if ied? >> that's a great question. theoretically, yes. say the president had a conversation with the secretary of defense about strategy relating to a certain foreign country and written up in a memo. that is classified and arguably covered by executive privilege, too. the trump team saying if they're privileged you cannot use them against us in court. >> the doj will appeal. how long will that take? >> doj filed a notice of appeal. we are at the district court level in federal court in florida. they will appeal. if they appeal they go to the 11th circuit court of appeals and takes a long time. in the meantime what doj has said they'll do is ask for a stay which is basically asking the court of appeals for a pause and specific cli focused on the 100 classified documents. this is out of the 11,000 total so ta

ultimately doj is going to want the echds and i do believe doj will make that decision based solely on the evidence. >> thank you very, very much. just ahead how the democrats win in the georgia senate office is making a big impact here in washington with some republicans pointing fingers, , fingers of blame right atat donald trump. ue the head up display. wow! the massaging seat. okay, okay, what next? alexa, turn on holiday ligights. this year,r, give the gift of technology in every buick syouv. it's the holidays. get 3.99% apr and no monthly payments for 90 days on these buick suv models. the holidays were awkward for romeo and juliet. ♪ thankfully, amaz had just the gift to bring the families togeth. ♪ sh legendary deals. a must in your medicine cinet! less sick days! cold coming on? zicam is the number one cold shortening brand! highly recommend it! zifans love zicam's unique zinc formula. it shortens colds! zicam. zinc that cold! i was born on the south side of chicago. it has been a long road, but now i'm working for schwab. i love to help people understand the world through

the doj doesn't have that same deadline. plus, trump lost his one legal challenge on privilege fairly quickly. and there's one other thing that seems to be missing. it's kevin mccarthy's memory of conversation with one specific white house aide. you recognize her. it's cassidy hutchinson. >> she testified under oath and saying that you called her after donald trump said that -- urged his -- told his supporters that they were going to go to the capitol. and you were concerned about those remarks and said, don't come up here. figure it out. don't come up here. she said that under oath. did you tell her that? and why were you concerned about the prospects of donald trump coming to the capitol on january 6th? >> i don't recall talking that day. i recall talking to dan scavino. i recall talking to jared. i recall talk lg to trump. that's what i talked on television too. if i talked to her, i don't remember it. if it was coming up here, i don't think i wanted a lot of people coming up to the capitol. but i don't remember are the c

to jump and doj jumps. that will enable donald trump to cast it as a political prosecution. it may not be a meritorious argument but you can bet donald trump will make it. what i would want as a prosecutor is all of the evidence. doj has been asking the committee for months now, and as sara just said the committee has not turned everything over. they say they will but that's what would interest me if i was a prosecutor on the case. >> right. i want to ask you about some new reporting just coming into our newsroom. trump is calling for the termination of the constitution to overturn the 2020 election and put him back in power. the white house is now condemning him for this. obviously this is just more desperation from the former president. it is not going to happen. what is your reaction to that? i guess what might the justice department think of that when you go out there and you say this sort of thing as they're perhaps weighing making a case against him? >> good lord. i don't even know where to begin. >>

i was at doj for a long time. doj prosecutors have every reason to be way out ahead of congress when it comes to an investigation, because doj has way more powerful tools at their disposal. for example, doj can issue grand jury subpoenas, which actually have teeth and judges will enforce. congress only has congressional subpoenas, which can be fairly casually blown off with no consequence. doj can issue wiretaps, congress can't do that. doj can do search warrants. congress can't do that. so doj can use the threat of imprisonment to flip non-cooperators. usually you see doj way out ahead of an investigation and congress scrambling to catch up. here it's reversed. >> does this resistance or delay jeopardize any potential criminal charges against former president trump or any of the political figures? >> it could jeopardize pending charges. we know doj has charged over 800 people relating to the capitol attack. prosecutors have an obligation to turn over exculpatory evidence, evidence that may be helpful to a defenda

>> will: as of tonight, no comment so far from the fbi or doj. mike said this is up to the american people, you, watching, to decide was this a legal raid. was this a raid in pursuit of justice or was this a partisan act to take out, not just a former president, but a potential candidate for president of the united states, and obviously, according to the latest polls, the leader of the opposition party. in order to know the answer to that question, the doj and the fbi will need to provide, and soon, the evidentiary and legal basis for this. this is a very fair statement, unprecedented action by the department of justice. let's talk about exactly what you the viewer, what you the american, should be taking away from this with steven miller, a former trump advisory. steven, what a day in american history. your reaction. >> this is an abomination. you have the sitting president of the united states, joe biden, through his justice department, through his fbi, conducting a raid on the person who is presumed to be his opponent in the next election, and

if doj wants mark meadows testimony, it can get it by a series of means. it looks like meadows has a lot of exposure here. doj will be able to get that testimony one way or the other. >> joyce, i'm going to ask you to put on your old prosecutor's hat which i suspect is never far from you. the department of justice has received the house january 6th committee's recommendations. from your knowledge which is superficial in one sense, it's just what we've been able to read, what's the most promising avenue for a potential indictment of the president? >> that's a big question. you're right the former prosecutor hat tends to stick around, which means that something that's been really intriguing about the dump of all these transcripts is that the american people in essence have doj's case file on the former president as regards january 6th. this is the evidence that doj uses to assess what charges it might pursue. the one charge that looks like it's dead on the money here, almost as though the statute was written with trump's activity around the 2020 election in

doj really wants to put the pedal to the metal. yamiche: a quick question, is this special master backfiring? >> absolutely. yamiche: ok. it was so nice to have you all around the table. thank you for coming here and sharing your reporting. don't forget to watch on saturday. you will get the latest on hurricane ian and the recovery from the storm. my heart is with all of this impacted find a storm in my native state of florida. thank you for joining us. good night from washington. >> corporate funding is provided by consumer cellular. additional funding is provided by the yuen foundation, committed to bridging cultural differences in our communities. robert and susan rosenbaum. the corporation for public broadcasting. and by contributions from viewers like you. thank you.

the doj essentially saying that review has already been done. so it will be unnecessary to do it again. what is your response to this, and what decision do you think the judge will likely make on thursday? >> i agree with the justice department. a special master is not needed in this case, even if the review had not been done, special masters typically are appointed when there is a seizure from an attorney's office, so they can check attorney-client privilege issues but that was not the case here. and additionally, the search has been completed, pursuant to the procedures that the judge who issued the search warrant laid out. so, they have a team that reviewed all these documents, called out the executive privilege or attorney client privilege stuff, put it in one basket, and then proceeded to give, or wants to give, the other documents to the review team so they can get going with the criminal investigation and national security review. i think the justice department has it correct, here, and i don't think there is a good response coming from t

this is the doj we are talking about. that means the department could be focusing in on trump's inner circle. they are planning around that day independent of the individuals that ransacked the capitol. the january six committee members have been clear that they think the doj needs to do more. in order to hold people responsible for donald trump's and tempted coup. this week, the january six committee voted to hold former advisor peter navarro and deputy chief of staff, dan scavino, in contempt for outright refusing to supply subpoenas. there is every indication that the house will hold both men in a contempt, and then it would be up to the department of justice to criminally charge. like it already has four top trump advisor, steve bannon, who refused to reply the subpoena. his trial schedule this summer. while navarro say they are protected by executive privilege, many committee members explained why that is not true. >> police barest the nonsense talk about executive privilege rejected now by every court has looked at

the doj appealed and garland decides we are going to keep fighting this. i think it was wrong and i also think he missed an opportunity toay say we are different. we are not doing things this way to this preposterous extreme in order toou protect donald trump. but i think he was doing there, he seems i to be searching for e path of least resistance to make as few waves as possible. i think that's a mistake. he needs to undo some of them but not all can be undone. i disagree and. we will see how it comes out but it's a missed opportunity. >> i believe there's cannot bed with that decision one of the other things i want to ask about because i'm fascinated with this concept of an endgame and we've seen it with multiple officials with their time in the administration or after they were designed i pushed you just didn't see it. after it was clear that he had lost in the weeks after it seemed that bill barr was changing his tune a little bit. we've spoken about belmar being in the news where he was quoted as saying i have suspicions all along that the claims wer

here's what doj says about that misfiling. quote, that the fbi in a matter of hours recovered twice as many documents with classification markings as the diligent search that the former president's counsel and other representative his weeks to perform calls into serious question of representations made in the june 3rd certification and cast doubt on the extent of cooperation in this matter. this extraordinary photo shows classified documents that were found inside a container in trump's office at mar-a-lago shows documents of secret and top-secret classification markings along with documents labeled sci, sci means sensitive, compartmentalized information which means they contain some of our country's most important national security secrets and secret programs. doj says some of the documents found in the search were so sensitive the agents needed to obtain additional security clearances to just look through them. doj also warns in this filing that trump's request for a special master, quote, would impede the government's ongoi

if she doesn't, doj is saying they will appeal to the 11th circuit court of appeals. that in and of itself carries its own risk because 6 of the 11 active judges in the 11th circuit are trump nominees. so what the doj wants is they want judge eileen cannon to halt the part of her ruling that said all of the fbi's review of the classified documents must stop. because of that ruling, that review has been on hold for a week. but doj has since said because the fbi's review has been stopped t intelligence review of the ramifications of these documents at mar-a-lago, that has also come to a stop. since this is an ongoing investigation, prosecutors want their work to continue. so alisyn and victor, we'll see if judge cannon allows them to keep working, essentially reversing herself. if she doesn't, doj has said, in fact, they will go for it 11th circuit and see what the appeals hold in that court, guys. >> let's turn to the cnn exclusive about trump white house chief of staff mark meadows. we're learning about how he is now complying with the justice department subpoena. wha

first of all, doj has vastly superior resources and expertise. they have over 10,000 federal prosecutors, the entire fbi and other law enforcement apparatus. fulton county d.a., i admire the effort but they have a grand total of about 50 attorneys and they don't special liize in comx fraud cases. but if a county d.a. tries to indict a former president, first move that former president will make is to go to the federal court and say no, no, you can't do that under our constitution. you can't have elected partisan local county level d.a.s indicting people for anything that touches on the presidency. i know norm will say, yeah, but that argument doesn't gfly here but we don't know because it has never been raised. no one has ever tried to indict a former president. and beyond dispute, that is an argument that can only be made against a county level d.a., not against d.o.j. so that is why doj only has the institutional credibility and i think legal standing to make this kind of case. >> norm, he teed it up for you. i'll give you the final thought. >>

those are doj. 's >> norm, the appeals court not only finding that trump had no ownership or personal interest in these documents, blasting the declassification claims. and that quote, here for blasting the claims, quote, the record contains no evidence that any of these records were being declassified and before the special master rested provided any interference of declassified any of these documents. scathing rebuke from the appeals court? >> well, it was no worse than when trump's lawyers -- have a special master judge who said you can't have your cake, and eat it as well. they are not willing to put the evidence forward, of the classification, donald trump talks about it all the time on social media, don. there is no penalties for that, but his lawyers dare not say it, because they face very serious sanctions if they miss represent to the court. finally, in the past 24 hours, finally we have returned to planet earth. it is like we were in another dimension where the law did not apply, the facts

credibility of the fbi and the doj was always hanging by a thread. merrick garland, christopher wray, they remain silent in the silence tonight is deafening. here now is one senator who is speaking out against all of this, former senator marco rubio. do you actually said this and i found it interesting, doj, the fbi are playing with fire. >> look, i am here in a very unique position in south florida surrounded by people who come from countries where this is familiar to them. this is shocking to americans but in latin america and many of these countries around the world, here's what happens. a group takes power, one of the first things that group does is begin to persecute and go after their political opponents, and then when the supporters of the political opponents begin to complain about it they begin to target them and criminalize opposition bid that is what is happening here now. they took power, they are demanding, you see it on twitter and their public statements, they are demanding and they want donald trump arrested and charged right now. the

but if you get a bar fight or something you won't be covered by doj. and bill barr look to that determined that donald trump's comments, that was part of the presidency and i was very outspoken at the time and that was absolutely wrong, the wall the present has a very broad a job description, they can to be part of it. i felt vindicated a couple weeks or months later when a federal judge who appeared in front of, took the same vision as an outcome of the doj coming cannot do this case because it can possibly be within the scope of the residency to defame somebody who is accused of assault predict and under bill barr, that doj appeal to, and when merrick garland comes in, and said we will continue this appeal keep fighting. i think it was wrong. and i think also america garland it missed an opportunity to say that we are different, not doing things this way and stretching the law does prosperous extreme just in order to protect donald trump. i think what merrick garland was doing is searching for the path of least resistance the path of least political

and i think the fbi and doj. have a lot to answer for. and they've had hunter's laptop for two years. a steven miller, whyny would any americans think that we have equal justice under the law?la i arew? certainly no longer believe that we don't have equal justice. nothing close to it. look, that laptopal is the longest confession on vidia record . in human history. i don'tt think there is a library long enough to contain the list of crimes contained on that laptop. but more importantly,he as this news story points out, it leads directly is sixteen hundred60 pennsylvania avenue and joe biden. imagine if botin, just one dayen in his life got the treatment that donald trump has gottenndo for the last six years. m how many crimes would be uncovered? how much at hunter cash went under the table to joe biden or wasn't properlyto declared thatl was used toar subsidize his lifestyle? was that all reported to the irs? y as a gift tax that all above board? joe biden couldn't survive one hour of the scrutiny that has been on donald trump every singl

the doj, they do report to doj. if you look at the backdrop of crossfire hurricane and all of the misfires there that are well-documented and inspector general reports across the board and how hillary clinton was handling with kid gloves, 33,000 e-mails and all they said is mother may i look at though e-mails. you can review them first before we see them. the contrast, hunter biden the same thing. the evidence starts to mount that they're under tremendous political pressure from the doj or we have ideologs at the fbi. i don't think that is necessarily the case at the fbi. >> charles: let me ask you the notion of an informant. there's some speculation saying at mar-a-largo, president trump is surrounded by political loyalists, law enforcement and the secret service. only law enforcement would have had a legal duty to observer is vaccinations of criminal conduct. i always thought the secret service folks that protect the president and the president's family, not necessarily sworn to secrecy, but be hard to do your job

doj faces credibility crisis prompting merrick garland into damage control mode over claims of political bias in the fbi. >> todd: marianne ortega live in los angeles. >> marianne: accusing trump's team of trying to hide documents saying plaintiff's motion to appoint a special master fails for multiple reasons, and the government developed evidence government records were likely concealed and removed to obs obstruct. doj may not be able to clean up its mess in the midst of political bias within the department. >> the politics of their agents, of the office not being able to contain is causing them to say we better do something. we sought in realtime and took care of it. it ortega a little too late. >> marianne: a.g. garland banned political appointees from participating which reads we must maintain public trust and ensure politics in fact and appearance does not compromise ap appearance of our work and timothy thibault breaks his silence. firmly believe any investigation will show his decision-making were not impact by political bias or partisanship of any kind. the former president and

the doj essentially saying, that review has already been done. so, it will be unnecessary to do it again. so, what is your response to this? and what decision do you think the judge will likely make on thursday? >> i agree with the justice department that his special marked is not needed in this case, even if the review hadn't been done. special master's typically are appointed when there is a seizure from an attorney's office so they can check attorney-client privilege issues. that wasn't the case here. and, additionally, the search has been completed, pursuing to the procedures that the judge issued the search warrant laid out. so, they have a team that reviewed all these documents, called out the executive privilege or the attorney client privilege stuff. put it in one basket and proceeded to give or want to give the other documents to the review team so they can get going with the criminal investigation and the national security review. so, i think the justice department has a correct. here i don't think that it's a good response that will be

how long has the doj been playing politics? remember this? >> at one point, the attorney general had directed me not to call it an investigation, but instead the call it a matter which confused me and concerned me. maria: coming up, former intel committee chairman and truth social ceo devin nuÑes with federal prosecutor kash patel on who's ordering the hit, and what's really going on at doj and fbi. then former attorney general and federal judge himself michael mukasey with reaction to merrick garland's press conference and the two tiers of justice this america today. plus, more misinformation from the corner office. >> we received news that our economy had 0% inflation in the month of july. 0%. here's what that means: while the price of some things went up last month, the price of others went down by the same amount. the result, zero inflation last month. people are are still hurting, but zero inflation last month. maria: not exactly, joe. daze thed and confused over new inflation data this week that remains at 40-year highs and is up 8.5%

he wants doj to do the work. so, the question is, what is doj going to do? generally, their pattern has been one of not giving the public lots of information. they are fighting the biden administration, they are fighting, i should say, over releasing a memo from the previous attorney general concerning the mueller investigation, something that two judges said should be released. it gives you an idea of doj. this is not an organization that only believes in transparency. we have that additional wrinkle as well. >> 100%. tracey, as we keep in mind the doj didn't want the affidavit released in any form, can a majority have it redacted before it gets sent to the judge? how much of a national security concern is the actual affidavit? >> i think really what is going to be important about the affidavit is protecting sources, methods, and witnesses. i think those are the three things that are most important because we have to remember in the narrative that i'm seeing a lot with the republican senators, these fbi agents simply lied under oath in affidavit in order to

doj started a grand jury investigation. they submitted a subpoena to the national archives to be able to review that material. then of course, you had this meeting in june. so that's not that long ago, where the doj and fbi agents are at mar-a-lago. they see this room full of documents. they later tell the folks at mar-a-lago to better secure that room. it doesn't make sense that from that year-long negotiation you would all of a sudden have a search warrant that was a complete surprise to the folks at mar-a-lago. so that's what i'm trying to kind of really get my head around here. >> so does it seem to you that they know what they were looking for? that it's a needle in the haystack, but they know what the needle is? they asked for the documents and they got some percentage but they say what we're looking for isn't there. they're very specific, they know what they need, and it may be related to some other investigation, or do you think they don't know what they want, but they know they didn't get everything? >> it's hard t

we told you about last night between trump lawyers and doj officials. trump lawyers took the doj team in june down to a room at mar-a-lago where boxes of material were stored. some of the material viewed by the doj team was labeled as, quote: sensitive material. our source would not say it had a specific division such as classified or top secret. also unclear, bret tonight whether the doj team asked at that specific time for a specific inventory of the remaining material being stored. after months of high level back and forth negotiations between the trump team and government over potentially classified information brock counsel at some point bret over the past few months. this is why the search of mar-a-lago took place monday. this according to several sources familiar with the search and prior meetings. now, the former president's team denies this and claims donald trump has been cooperating and happy to turn over the requested material. law enforcement sources, they say that's misleading. the former president's son eric told the daily mail the fbi re

it does seem like they have been doing a lot of the doj's work for them. you can look and say, this is an unprecedented circumstance, and that's why we should be cautious. but it's an unpresence departmented for a president to try to overturn an election. that's getting ahead of ourselves. but what's clear is laws exist for a reason, and there also needs to be accountability when it comes to an attempt to shred our constitution and overturn an election. >> i think the goal of the committee has always been two-fold. part has been to tee up for the department of justice to say we're going to let you decide what you can do. but the other goal is persuading the american public. we know tens of millions of americans are viewing these hearings and watching them. i believe the fact that the vast majority of the witnesses are republicans. cassidy hutchinson liked donald trump and wanted to work for him. so hearing from those women i think is incredibly important because it shows they were lied to too as with us the public. >> when you say you think it is swaying t

the panel also referring attorney and trump ally john eastman to doj but saying doj will have to determine who else will face prosecution. >> though the understanding of the role of many individuals may be incomplete even today, because they refuse to answer our questions, we trust that the department of justice will be able to form a far more complete picture. >> reporter: republican lawmakers who snubbed committee subpoenas referred to the house ethics committee. after 17 months of investigating and roughly 1,000 witness interviews, the committee determined that trump knew the fraud allegations he was pushing were false. but continued to amplify them anyway. >> the committee has evidence that ex-president trump planned to declare victory and unlawfully to call for the vote counting to stop. and that he told numerous allies about his intent in the weeks before the election. >> reporter: even if donald trump's close efforts allies like hope hicks worry that the fraud claims were damaging his legacy, trump persisted. >> he said something along the lines, you know, nobody will care about my

of course, the doj's thinking about it. because, this looks like a free grand disregard. >> switching topics, the senate appears to confirm to ketanji brown-jackson to the supreme court tomorrow, i want to play with republican senator, tom cotton, is not saying. , is not saying. the last drug jackson left the supreme court to go to nuremberg and to prosecute the nazis. this is judge jackson might have gone there to defend them. >> you do not think it was a bridge too far to make a link between nuremberg and nazis? >> no, because in three separate cases, she was representing, not american citizens, but foreign terrorists. >> this is a man that graduated from harvard in three years. what is your reaction to what he said, melissa? >> again the defense of defendants is a cornerstone in the american legal system. she has a role as a public defender and a private practice to provide legal defense to individual clients. she was upholding that commitment that is embedded in a six amendments guarantee of the right to counsel. again,

the doj does not. so the judge sort of split it in the middle but we're just going to have to wait to see exactly how much we get out and then the judge can go back, look at the redactions, make some of his own and then they can appeal that so this is going to be a long drawn out process. lara, thank you so much for joining us this morning. we always appreciate having you on. >> todd: any weekend plans in the five seconds we have? >> carley: i can't think that quickly. we should talk to "fox & friends" which starts right now. >> todd: bye. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ down home ♪ momma's cooking ♪ working with this guitar but it's hard ♪ i met a girl, bought a house, put a nice little -- >> steve: you are listening to jimmie allen, our featured performer today on the all-american summer concert series as you can see right there broug

the doj signed on as well. now it's obvious he is, as you note, putting the trump team on the back foot. there's reporting the former white house lawyer, you saw him during the january 6th hearings, warned mr. trump about potential legal peril if he refused to return the classified documents. why is that potentially significant here? >> it's important evidence because when the government prosecutes people, it has to prove not just the acts they committed but it has an obligation to present proof of whatever congress has required when it has written the federal law that becomes our criminal code, which often includes a state of mind. it's not enough to hold on to the documents. you have to do it either intentionally or willfully or with knowledge that you are engaging in something that the law prohibits you from doing. in this case, his statements -- his testimony remains to be seen. but if the testimony is as good as what's revealed in this reporting, it will be powerful evidence of the former president's knowl

been some concern among the doj, and i guess elsewhere. it was considered more conservative, or conservative court. what is the makeup of that court? >> yes, so that was a gamble here, because when doj was deciding whether or not to go to the 11th circuit, six of the 11 judges on the 11th circuit are trump appointees, but it turns out in this case it didn't matter, because a three judge panel that ruled in favor of doj tonight, two of them were appointed by trump, one of them appointed by president obama. so they took a gamble here by going to the 11th circuit. remember, they tried it first of the district court, trying to get that initial judge to overturn part of her original opinion, she wouldn't do, it so they had to go to the 11th circuit, and they appealed in a very limited way, only asking for two things. tonight, that gamble paid off, because they have a victory the 11th circuit tonight, anderson. >> jessica schneider, appreciate, it -- cnn political analyst, maggie eight haberman, she's also the off or of the new book out october

this is the doj we are talking about. that means the department could be focusing in on trump's inner circle. they are planning around that day independent of the individuals that ransacked the capitol. the january six committee members have been clear that they think the doj needs to do more. in order to hold people responsible for donald trump's and tempted coup. this week, the january six committee voted to hold former advisor peter navarro and deputy chief of staff, dan scavino, in contempt for outright refusing to supply subpoenas. there is every indication that the house will hold both men in a contempt, and then it would be up to the department of justice to criminally charge. like it already has four top trump advisor, steve bannon, who refused to reply the subpoena. his trial schedule this summer. while navarro say they are protected by executive privilege, many committee members explained why that is not true. >> police barest the nonsense talk about executive privilege rejected now by every court has looked at

but the doj did nothing about that. the new yorkin times is reportig tonight that the search is ,se quote, focused on material thatn mr. trump had brought with himr- to magalog. it waste private clubnc and residence after he leftes the white house. those boxes allegedly contained many pages of classified documents, according tome a person familiar with their contents. the times continued, quote, mr.t trump delayed returning 15 boxes of material requested by officials with the national archives for manyy months, only doing so when there became a threat of action being taken to retrieve them. fox news has confirmed that per standard protocol, fbi director wray and attorney progeneral garland were aware f the raid before occurred. ve however, you characterized whatd happened i in the unitedom states of america today. thisen is a defining moment, a seminal moment, a partisanns moment, one that generations look back on and ask, was thiso a moment we broke apart but wer? were able to come together. and the answer to that ques

and jake, the judge here is satisfied with what the doj has put forward, which could mean that the doj is going to give us a little bit of a glimpse into this investigation. they had previously said if they were to make any redactions, it could make the whole document unreadable. when they made that argument in court, the judge didn't seem to be satisfied with that. so it's possible here the doj is maybe giving a little more than they had wanted to and just enough to satisfy the judge. we'll know more tomorrow by noon or certain, when doj unveils this to the public. >> so jessica, will we see this affidavit tomorrow? >> reporter: we will. the judge ordered it be made public by noon tomorrow. of course, that means doj would make this public at any point, between now and noon tomorrow. they could make it public sooner. so yes, the judge's orders are quite clear here. doj, you probably knew this going in, they had to make enough redactions, not too many redactions so the judge would be satisfied. they will not be revealing any significant part of this investigation, and the judge has said

a word leaked early on by fbi doj to the fake news media. something about that whole nuclear thing really hurt donald trump. i got under his skin. but besides trump's outbursts, four days after that reporting, we heard nothing about the washington post reporting on those nuclear secrets, no other news outlet confirmed the post alarming reporting. but then a week ago, a week ago tonight, the justice department revealed in a court filing in an unsealed subpoena from may that the documents and the doj was looking for documents at mar-a-lago, once that included a classification called, formerly restricted data. that's a definition that concerns nuclear weapons. now, tonight, the intrepid reporters at the washington post are at it again. headline, material on foreign nations nuclear capabilities seized at trump's mar-a-lago. here is the lead, court, a document describing a foreign governors military defenses, including its nuclear capabilities, was found by fbi agents who searched former president donald trump's mar-a-lago residents a private clu

the doj purchased government bonds worth a record 16 trillion yen in june. rises in long term interests rate occurred. >>> let's see what's happening in the week ahead. we have key numbers on how economies are doing around the world and also companies reporting earnings as well as a meeting that could set energy prices going forward. china's index for july will be out on sunday. the ganl for both manufacturing and nonmanufacturing from june bounce back for the first time in four months to above the 50-year mark. the index plummet nd april as the harsh covid lock down in shanghai took its toll. oufr, infections are rising dwen in recent weeks and some parts of the country implemented restrictions on certain lingers over the economy as beijing stands ready with more virus measures t. nation faces increasing pressure from a downturn in the property sector. oil producing nations are set to discuss on wednesday their output plan for september. members of the organization of the petroleum exports countries and their allies including russia agreed to ramp up produc

how does the doj respond to that, in your view? could we possibly see another search warrant? >> well, they've always wanted to do a search warrants if they could. the hangup is to get a search warrant, you have to show probable cause that contraband would be at a particular place at a particular time, but they have it, right? >> what happened here -- excuse me? >> they have it, right? they do have the probable cause if they -- >> well, not really. it's not at the storage locker anymore, that's been turned over. and all the different places, including trump himself on the planes, i don't think they can zero in or they would have. what happened here is basically the judge ordered the trump team to do its own search. how did doj respond in on the one hand, it's one more time, but they're not happy, what is it, seven or eight times, and it still doesn't, i think, complete the ledger of what they say is missing. i think there will be more jawbones in the secret proceedings that are going on before the chief judge there, the person who ordered the trump team dodd this search. harry

there is this back and forth between the committee and doj. the doj is sort of taking a backseat here. they will collect the evidence as it comes to them. i would agree with norm. there are now a plethora of potential criminal charges. talk about what crimes could be charged here. and yesterday was the first time i certainly saw that we saw a line between the seditious conspiracy with the oath keepers and proud boys and president trump. up until that time, yesterday, essentially, i could only see exposure for obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud united states, now we're getting into the realm of seditious conspiracy. >> here's what hutchinson says, the white house counsel told her about trump wanting to go to the capitol on january 6th. >> mr. cipollone said something to the effect of, please make sure he doesn't go up to the capitol, cassidy, keep in touch with me. we will get charged with every crime imaginable if we make that movement happen. >> today liz cheney is upping the option to testify. how can he not testify

then what happens next at the doj's information, if they can move forward? >> if they can move forward, i think 60, day, 90 day rule does start to kick in. it shouldn't necessarily. i written about, researched that rule all the times it's been applied. it's applied to candidates who might be in the election. so donald trump doesn't actually fit the bill. but you could imagine garland says, look, out of abundance of caution, we're not taking any major overt steps in the investigation until after the midterms, but then after the midterms looks like they have a mountain of evidence in which they might then decide, now is the moment we have to think about indictment. >> so they could move fairly quickly potentially after november is what you're saying? >> i think so. >> do you think there's any resource for donald trump in all of this, someone who protected loudly and repeatedly there's nothing nuclear there and boom we have reporting this evening says there was, in fact, nuclear in there and it was very, very serious classified information? >> yeah. makes me wo

a referral does not require the doj to do anything. doj does not need anything from the committee in order to investigate. in fact, according to the new reporting, they are investigating and they are investigating donald trump. so that is absolutely right, by merrick garland. and you mentioned jamie raskin. it is interesting he was on early with derek barnett. i was onset with her. and it seems quite clear to me that jamie raskin saying the same thing, that he believes a criminal referral will not help merrick garland maintain the veneer of impartiality, and will not be productive in anyway. so it actually seems to me that they're on the same page. and as a former prosecutor, i concur. >> merrick garland, i think, for me the most important thing that stood out, he seemed to say that it doesn't not matter if donald trump wants, again does not matter if he runs again former president of the united states. again, reentering that no one is above the law. he used, norm, the term without fear or favor. >> while, so don, that is what a prosec

kudos to the secrecy with which doj has been doing this. i think the public chatter that this is too slow, that doj is not moving fast enough, i think they are, i think they've moving. i think they've been deliberate in this and i think they have locked it down in terms of leakage. they were ready a month ago to receive transcripts of everything. it was a general request, not just this person's testimony or that. it was give us everything. i think they're ready and poised to move on it in their own timing. >> thank you very much for your insight. >>> still ahead, finland and sweden officially submit their applications to join nato. moments ago the new objections from turkey that could derail everything. >> well, derail everything for now. >>> plus donnie deutsche on why he thinks all the talk on replacement theory creates a branding theory for democrats. >>> white supremacy is a poison that's been allowed to fester and grow right in front of our eyes. no more. i mean, no more. we need to say as clearly and forcefully as we can that the ideo

should be interpreted by inaction for doj. i know that's frustrating for people, and i hope that's what's going on. >> as a taxpayer and as a citizen, if we get out of four years and attorney general and this department of justice is andrew gillem, getting illicit hamilton tickets and search, if that's what we're paying for, we're paying too much for the department of justice. >> i was going say, quick point, keep in mind, the committee is working with a january deadline. they assume they're going to be done. doj has another two years. >> it will be a different horizon if the republicans take down the house and senate and shut down everything and all of the fire hose will shut off if they get control of the government and jill winebanks, peter strzok, very much appreciate both of you. up next on "the reid out," kevin mccarthy seems to be back in the doghouse, and trump is clearly rattled by what he's seeing by the 1/6 committee. the reid out continues right after this. e 1/6 committee. the reid out continues right after this (

the doj is pushing on this at the have a good sense. you have more and you're not telling us about it. >> trump has been told over and over again, for well over a year now, to attend class of ride documents he took from the white house. what does it say that he is still not complying? the fact we're still having this conversation about whether all of the documents have been returned shows donald trump is no big surprise here, but playing it pretty fast and loose. i think it is sort of stepping back from the specifics of the report this evening and taking in the bigger picture that he is still, for al l. it is an unprecedented political situation and obviously an unprecedented legal situation. >> i want to take on the form of keeper testifying the far right groups leader was in touch with the secret service in 2020. how big of a deal is that? >> i think it is a huge deal. everybody is looking for the holy grail. what is the connection between donald trump and the insurrectionist? >> must visit with secret service. what happens? right aft

and what to doj do? they had to walk it back and issue a correction and you know what they did? their statement said some low-level staffer got it wrong in a litter. bill barr has responsibility for you go on wolf blitzer, if it's our case, any person who wants the real story was a give him on the phone, make sure. those three instances and others again like with a mueller report first impressions are so powerful and he's out there using doj's seal to fan the flames of this thing. it is about he took it back later than if he didn't? yes, it is but he did so much damage of what he did early on that it'll think he can forget. we should my people to post q&a if they have question posted in the q&a or the chat and i think the last 20 minutes or so we will try to take viewer q&a. >> yes. we will open up collation and just about five or six minutes if you have questions. nasa time to put them in. i'm looking at them and will start rallying them off. we got some going which is great. this one is a little bit mo
