Description

Former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows' text messages from January 6th were released by the January 6th commission and their contents revealed members of Congress and Fox News hosts begging Meadows to get Trump to make a statement. In the courts, Judge Dabney Friedrich ruled that Jan. 6 cases invoking the law against corruptly obstructing an official proceeding has been properly invoked. This opens to the door to bringing criminal charges against Meadows and potential Donald Trump. Is this a turning point? Will the January 6th insurrectionists finally be brought to justice? Could Members of Congress who aided them be ejected from the Chamber? David Rothkopf discusses these latest developments with Norm Ornstein of the American Enterprise Institute and Allison Gill of the Daily Beans and Mueller, She Wrote.
Last in the episode, the panel discusses the recent news that the Senate may be setting aside the Build Back Better legislation in favor of focusing on voting rights. Will Democrats eliminate the filibuster to protect voting rights? To find out the answers to these and other pressing questions join us!
