after that performance it took the judge hours that, yes, donald trump, trump jr. and ivanka must comply with the depositions about the trump organization business practices. their testimony could be shared with the manhattan district attorney that is conducting a parallel criminal probe, or they could all just plead the fifth as eric did over 500 times. one thing that is important to understand here is the snowballing nature of trump's legal and financial legal predictment. today's ruling compelling trump and his children to testify is, in part, a result of mazara's, trump's accounting firm, abandoned him this week. the implication seems to be, yeah, this sketchy thing is exactly why you need to go testify about your business practices. but you know what? being compelled to testify to the new york attorney general may not even be the worst thing that has happened to donald trump as a result of the dodgy financial statements. as you know donald trump runs a hotel down the street from the white house, and he doesn't own the building but leases the building from the

this is trump's kryptonite. he wants sued a rip harder for daring to write that trump was not, in fact, a billionaire. he pursued the case for years. when trump sat down for a deposition in that suit, and the lawyers tried to pin down that he was actually worth, trump testified, under oath, quote, my net worth fluctuates and it goes up and down with the markets and with attitudes and with feelings, even my own feelings. feelings. donald trump lost that suit. hard to believe. i know. sometimes, donald trump needs something to backup whatever his feelings are about his net worth. he needs a piece of paper to show his sellers so that he can show some real estate, lender to get a loan, or, you know, to the american people so you get elected president. that's when he turned to something called the statement of financial condition, prepared by his longtime accounting firm, mazars. this he could show to potential lender or seller and say see, this is prepared in black and white. i, donald trump, and rich. you can imagi

reporting on trump. betrayals of sequel that picks up the story in the administration final chaotic tumultuous year, jonathan was number of things that haven't been revealed about that. it makes clear how closely a democratic system came tot unraveling. as he writes the simple truth about the last year of the term presidency as lives badly and shook the foundation ofdl our democracy conversation with jonathan, jonathan this afternoon will be another house reporter baker of the new york times. peter has authored several books on the presidencies of clinton bush and obama. him and susan are working on their own book about the trump years. jonathan and peter, taken away. >> thank you very much for hosting this today and take you to alyssa who was also working on her own book i can't wait to read that. anybody who doesn't know our four legs of the washington post in the most extraordinary bookstore in america. we are so glad you have become such an important place for people to gather and talk about big book

uh, president trump. i mean, how surprised are you that a year after being traced from office in disgrace? the former president is know the book is favorite to be the next president. i can say, i'm surprised. i think that i was actually surprised that he didn't win reelection given the climate of the united states. and so i am not surprised that people who don't like the way they think the president is operating would be looking for an alternative. and i think the further we get out from moments, from political moments, the easier it is sometimes for people to forget where we just came from. and so i can't say that i'm very surprised. what i am interested to see is how the republican field emerges. i know that there is a governor from florida. his name is rhonda santis who is increasingly popular among public in circles. and so is going to be the case that trump has a bit of a run for his money and keeping the republican party broadly defined together. of course, there are people who still support him and

and he is lack of a new val trump. he is maybe a little bit further to the right in a little bit more extreme in his approach than donald trump is. and so it could be the case. then what we end up seeing is a person who is like truck 2 point. oh, i think that again, then there are some people in the republican party who would hold that there is an individual who represents the republican party who is maybe trump inspired, but not as rough around the edges as trump is. and so it just remains to be seen how their party is going to sort of self. but as long as there is a unified base of people behind donald trump, and as long as he is endorsing candidates for office who go on to win their elections, he will have a hold on the republican party. that's undeniable. those things are all still happening. he's still raising lots of money and so he will continue to be something that the republicans and democrats have to be very, very careful about that because it's time as a leader, as a president, people admire their party is f

and hate trump. everybody should read it. it is an important book. what makes your book different than all the other trump books? of course my answer quickly iscc you provide a smart and insightful and powerful account of the last days. and reporting on those in mind do a good job of framing the consequence of why it matters it was a spectacle always a part of trumps brand but this was important for washington in the country in the world and you do a good job making clear. why do you think this stands out as part of the others? >> thank you for doing this. i have covered the white house in a way that as my white house reporter it's an honor to be here with you. is different about this book is the entire is trying to explain what happened from the disaster on january 6th. so that timeline at the beginning of 2020 from the end of the impeachment trial the first impeachment trial and trumps acquittal chaffin the first week of february. but to go through like some of the other books dealing with everythi

and we've seen this with the trump family, not just donald trump, but his kids. like they weren't raced with the law. you can't expect law-abiding, since they were raised as criminals. it's almost like it's a disability they have or something like that. >> and this is, again, this is defense time and time again. if the combination of the brazenness, and the fact that you can't expect them to have normally -- but again, to me, we have lots of evidence of guilty conscience here, and that's what i think is so important. it's important to me about a lot of the stuff we we've learned. the destruction of documents as one part of it, george. but also like, when he wants dhs to seize the machines, it descends rudy to go to it. there's something there. that is someone who understands what he's doing. he's exactly what it looks like. and there is enough of that to demonstrate that the man, he is a guilty conscience, he's guilty, he knows what he's doing, george. >> look, he doesn't care about the law. he doesn't care about the rules, but he also doesn't want to get caught.

but trump didn't stop there. in fact, he also reportedly asked the attorney general if the doj could seize the machines. barr shot that proposal down. trump then tried to persuade state lawmakers in key states to use their local law enforcement agencies to take control of voting machines. but they, too, refused to go along with his plan. trump directly trying to find ways to seize voting machines in states where he lost, revealing that he was more involved than previously known. in fact, "the new york times" also reporting on new vealed oval office meetings where trump and his legal team discussed these options. we'll have more on that in a moment. is and cnn reporting two versions of the executive order were drawn up for different agencies to carry out showing the extent that trump went to steal this election. more desperate and unlawful attempts. we know the january 6th committee has over 700 documents from inside the white house that trump tried to hide. now some of his records, believe it or not, were torn up

donald trump. donald trump's insane ego demands that donald trump released a statement fighting back against that mazars letter. when he does, that when donald trump does that, he contradicts everything that his lawyers have been telling the judge in that case. then, tonight, in the braking's of the night, the attorney general of the state of new york uses donald trump's exact, profoundly stupid words, in his statement against him. that is where that case is tonight. mazars has flipped. mazars has flipped and is working with new york prosecutors in their investigations of donald trump. that is the judgment of our first guest tonight, attorney philip -- who has studied the letter that mazars accounting firms sent to don trump's company. donald trump and the company has plans last week. philip writes, this is a big deal. it means that mazars has flipped and is now protecting itself, not trump. or, as trump put it in his statement last night, that mazars didn't feel it could fight it out. that is undo

, the trump organization, the trump transition and allegedly the trump white house. i mean, it is absolutely breathtaking and stunning. you know, what's so shocking about this is, as i read the court filings, i was jotting down all the different felonies that appear to have been committed. it's a crime to lie to the fbi. it's called defrauding the government. if two or more people are involved, it's a conspiracy to defraud the government. clearly, there was more than one person involved here. and then you've got computer fraud and abuse, just what i described. penetrating the server in an unauthorized way without permission or knowledge. that's 18usc 1030. finally you've got the racketeering statute. what durham is describing here sounds very much to me like a criminal enterprise for the purpose of committing illegal acts such as fraud and obstruction of justice. lying and perjury and the list goes on and on. these are all things that i think durham is likely considering. i wrote a column today for fox news saying it is unlikely in my judgment that hillary clinton, t

trump trade adviser peter navarro. he has not been shy about his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. he has actually written an entire book about it and given numerous interviews including more than one with my colleague ari melber right on this network. his face says it all in this interview. and pushing to overturn the election results. but tonight mr. navarro seems suddenly reticent when it comes to talking about the january 6th investigation. he says he cannot possibly speak to them without donald trump's permission. and so they need to go talk to trump's lawyers. that's not how a subpoena works. but okay. we'll be keeping an eye on that. also tonight, you remember that story we brought you earlier this week about the national archives discovering that donald trump took 15 boxes of white house records to his golf club when he left office? and how the archives had to get those boxes back because donald trump was not allowed to take them in the first place? well, now the archives has asked the justice department t

he's not a donald trump loyalist. does not mean he's was never a trumper, but he's not part of that maga base or one of the aunts scurrying around to try to do former president trump's bidding. he was also with pence all day on january 6th. so he has this window into, as the protesters were chanting, hang mike pence, throughout the entire day, no one from the white house, not the president, not a low level staffer, no one called the then vice president or his entourage to see if he was okay. at one point short himself called the white house and said hey guys, just so you know, we are sheltering in this particular location, we are fine. i think the real -- it's not really -- it's all those days and weeks leading up to january 6th where marc short was one of the few people who was often in the room or on phone calls with trump, with pence, with some of trump's lawyers and allies who repeatedly tried to pressure pence to, as trump tweeted out prepared in the statement the other day overturn election. that's one of his --

donald trump is dangerous, and donald trump is also stupid, and that makes donald trump a danger to himself, especially a danger to himself legally as his criminal lawyers well know. fani willis has sought no public attention for her quite investigation of election fraud. it took donald trump's public stupidity to force district attorney willis to say publicly, i am conducting a criminal investigation of former president donald j trump. donald trump's public stupidity let him down another road this weekend that his harmful donald trump as evidence to the criminal investigations of election fraud. because donald trump is banned from twitter, yesterday he released a written statement seen by members of the news media and we are not sure who else, that has created more legal jeopardy for donald trump. a statement says that the legislative efforts now underway to clarify the electoral count act of 1887 means, according to donald trump quote, that mike pence did have the right to change the outcome, and they now want to take that right away. unfortunately, he didn't exercise that power, he could

was one year ago today that the second trial of donald trump in the senate, trump of course the only u.s. president in history to have been impeached lights. because only two presidents were impeach before. i'm president johnson, and president clinton. trump accounts for all presidential of peach mints. the second time of course was for inciting the deadly insurrection of january six. and that case was presented a year ago this week with jamming precision by the impeachment manager. >> after he knew that violence was underway at the capitol, president trump took actions that further incited the insurgency to be more inflame to take even more extreme selective and focused action against vice president mike pence. former president trump is also described by -- refusing requests to publicly and mediately, and forcefully call off the riots. and when he was told of the insurgents inside the capitol were trump supporters, the president said quote, well kevin, i guess these people are more upset about the election than you are. >> trump was ultimately acquitted at that trial. failing to get

but with donald trump, thankfully, it's very simple. you can't flush confidential documents down the toilet. you cant rip up classified documents. so i think there is a new line of inquiry with donald trump. but it's unfortunate that we have to live through the consequences of the mistake that we made in 2016 which is waiting a perceived mistake more heavily than we would if it were man. we are seeing this exact scenario with a man. and look, we are so calmly talking about it. nobody's breathlessly putting headlines about emails or classified information. >> what professor eddie s. glaude jr. was, it this is the year it seems where we must finally rewrite this truism that we all listened to our whole lives. originally, it was of course no man is above the law because they're always referring to the male presidents. and now it generally phrase says no one is above the law. it seems like we have to enter a realistic rewrite that says donald trump at least is above saw lobs. because he is going to get away with it, not be prosecuted for at

if trump's company somehow does manage to sell the lease on the trump hotel in d.c., trump could net a personal profit of more than $75 million, even though the hotel properties losing money. what is the timeline here? when do you expect the gsa to respond to your concerns that trump has, likely, violated his contract with the government? >> obviously, i would hope that they would expedite their view and would come to the same conclusion many of us have already, which is that on his base, the action by missouri, this, week negates the validity of any financial information or disclosure trump has provided to tsa and justification for the lease he was granted six years ago. that ought to happen right away. this could be fraud. gsa should have nothing to do with it. awe to do the right thing and pull the plug, expeditiously. >> i guess, i wonder ... this hotel project has been front from the beginning, right? it's always been the focus of a lot of lawsuits and consternation. what do you make of the deutch of bank loan ... deutsche bank agreed to loan trump 100 $70 million for this hotel

trump was trying to arrange it federally. people who supported trump actually tried to carry it out locally in several places. i mean dar leaf, that sheriff in barry county, michigan, he wasn't even the only person in michigan who tried it. this story is just insane. it's playing out in part this week in court. this is out of cross village township in michigan, which is at the very, very tippy top of the mitten, if you think of the lower peninsula as the mitten. in january, 2021, right after the election, a woman from cross village township phoned out a guy who ran a computer technician business and calling from the election integrity commission and voting to collect voting data from voting machines from across the state of michigan and needed her help and there was one voting machine in the state that she was having trouble accessing, the one in cross village township where she is from and said the machine was not connected to the internet so she could not access the data she r-she needed him to physically go to the machine,

to trump's lawyers. that is not how a subpoena works. but okay. we will be keeping an eye on that. also tonight, remember that story that we brought you earlier this week about the national archives discovering that donald trump took 15 boxes of white house records to his golf club when he left office. and how the archives had to get those boxes back? because donald trump was not allowed to take them in the first place. well now the archives have asked the justice department to get involved, after reportedly finding wooded believed to be classified material inside those boxes. we are going to have the details on that story a little later in the show. and, we will be joined live by senator chris murphy who attended a classified briefing today, that he called, quote, downright scary. like i said, lots to get to tonight. but we start in the great state of michigan, again. last, night we started the show with a scoop out of michigan about one part of the scheme that president trump and his allies pursued to

>> i call that trump being trump. there's nothing new here. this is conduct and behavior he engages in any time the circle of justice starts closing in on him. we saw it in the russia probe when john dowd, his personal attorney, started dangling the pardons to paul manafort and mike flynn. we know it's potentially obstruction of justice. the reality here is that we should be truly shocked by the fact that we're not shocked. that in and of itself is an astounding statement about who donald trump is as a person who walks our streets as a member of this society and yet feels that he can do whatever he wants. and by the way, i do hope that folks who were at that rally understand the difference between someone promising something they do not have the power to give without having won an election and what it should say to them, that he is trying to protect himself by promise something, if he wins an election he hasn't even declared to run in. >> joyce, it's not the only way in which it seems he's protecting himself. we see this $1 million payment to

trump told mr. barr that his lawyers had told him the department had the power to seize machines as evidence of fraud. trump mentioned a specific state that had used machines billed by dominion voting machines, excuse me dominion voting systems, where his lawyers believe there had been fraud. mr. barr had been brief extensively at that point by federal law enforcement about how the theories being pushed by trump's legal team about dominion being were unfounded. barr told trump that the justice department had no basis for's seizing the machine because there was no probable cause to believe a crime had been committed. i mean, the more we learned about trump's efforts to overthrow the government and prevent the next duly elected president from being sworn in, i mean, the more it sounds like a little bit like speed dating. it tries roping the defense department into this scheme, hey, send out the military and sees all the voting equipment. military apparently passed. then he started the homeland securit

he told trump how democracy works, told trump that his impulse is on unamerican. of course, it took more than a year to say it publicly. meanwhile, the republican party refuses to turn their backs on donald trump. today, the republican national committee -- have its own republican congressman, adam kinzinger of illinois, and republican congresswoman liz cheney of wyoming, for serving on the january 6th committee. the center states, quote, representatives cheney and kinzinger are participating in a democrat-led prosecution of ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse. legitimate political discourse. i want to remind you exactly what the republican party is now calling a legitimate political discourse. on january 6th, members of the trump mob violently attacked members of the united states capitol police. members of the trump mob proudly displayed a noose outside of the u.s. capitol. members of the trump mob, carrying confederate flags through the halls of the united states capitol and members of the trump mob roamed the halls of the u.s. capitol,

trump. we will come back the department of justice veteran and former acting solicitor general joining me ill has argued dozens of cases before the u.s. supreme court. great to see you, neil. you know there are many other members of trump's inner circle, steve bannon who defied subpoenas and requests for documents. would my rudy giuliani's calculation be and considering some level of cooperation? what might likely be weighing in? >> great to see you, chris. i suspect it's calculation is the same as bannon and the others. rudy is not in a vacuum he is a creature of the donald trump swab and the 18 other people who refused to testify because they're afraid that they're going to tell the truth. when i was in the government if law enforcement asked you to testify or gone cruised to provide information, of course you did, but i think you are the odds swamp creatures will stick together. it's possible rudy will seriously cooperate because he's afraid of legal bills or conscience or whatever. you'l

january 4th meeting at the trump hotel in washington. attended by at least three sitting republican u.s. senators. senator snt all the miss from wyoming, from crime or who came from north dakota, who brought his wife to the meeting, also saw senator ron johnson from wisconsin who also beamed in. that meeting, again, two days before january six, reportedly included those three sitting republican u.s. senators and also mike lindell, the my pillow guy, and sidney powell, and patrick burn, and all these other people who promoted the craziest trump conspiracies around the election. three republican u.s. senators apparently went to the meeting at the trump hotel on january 4th and heard them out. senator kramer says, after that meeting, he received this memo about unleashing the nsa to somehow bolster the fake fraud claims. so you can say what you want to but republican senators in congress and the whole, in terms of how they participated or didn't, or how they stood by or didn't during the whole overthrow the government scheme orchestrated ou

the trump administration. have we even seen this kind of public break between a president and the vice president in recent history, how did the effort to overturn the election drive this wedge between the two? why do you think pence chose to give this speech now? >> it is a very good question. we have seen other presidents and vice presidents split. we have never seen them split on such an important consequential, far-reaching issue, which is to say legitimacy, of the presidential election, an attempt by the sitting president to have the power over the will of the voters. that is a huge issue that is so much different than passed tension between a president and vice president, we have also never seen before this vice president, that is mike pence, oppose something that president trump says so strongly, so forcefully, so unreservedly. you, know even as he rejected president trump's, you know, pressure to try to unilaterally claim power to reject the electors on january 6th, he did it in a way that did not direc

reporting on trump.
