You look at so many of the things that have happened. Why didn't they go after Hillary Clinton for her email. She had thirty three thousand emails that were deleted after receiving a subpoena from Congress.

So down tromp had a big problem with the thought that Hillary Clinton may have deleted thousands of emails, but apparently ripping up official documents beyond recognition was not a problem. I guess I just kind of did throughout its administration. Is you don't do just teeny tiny little pleasant must be tiny little swore. Has our behaviour the new reporting this morning on trumps, widespread and indiscriminate shredding of documents, while president, which is again sailor, you federal law?

Did you see legitimate political discourse at that,

from my former seat. I did not see a lot of legitimate political discourse. and you'd: do you believe January? Six was in any way legitimate political discourse nor was it was a legitimate political of course, because it was an assault on the first branch of government? I think it students stakes here by the hour and see. First of all, they say that part of the reason for the resolution is they want to keep the focus on, show binding and the failures of the democratic administration. Why had work. For you all anybody's talking about this weekend is resolution, rather than talking about the failures of the binding ministration and secondly, it is up on what is I sense around the country from travelling around a ship that is occurring which is applied both are tired of hearing about the twenty twenty election from Donald Trump and from some who support him.

Scott Nichols, you actually look at political poles inside the Republican Party and why Christy is saying actually seems to be bearing out some reality there that publicans are growing. Weary of prompter didn't find themselves more as members of the Republican Party, instead of followers and Donald Trump reason, have Josh Holly and Lindsey Grand coming out and criticising the violence in January, the six, which is deeply ironic, of course, but both of them saying that people committing crimes and that day should be to jail. The Wall Street Journal editorial page came out with a fire breathing up our editorial in support of Hansen and telling Donald Trump three time loser. I'm just wondering somebody like me who seeing this as a former Republican

Do you see any any trend toward normalcy by even a small part of the Republican Party, but well I wish I could join you in the optimism this morning job, but we, the fees, are cracks in the wall. They are very tiny cracks microscopic cracks and their cracks coming over a year after the event, I was tempted to say that a fair number of high visibility? Republicans are breaking not with trumpet with Random Daniel. You know over over a poorly, the chosen press release. I think it's understandable that when pence comes out and says, Trump was wrong, that

There are a lot of relieved. Conservatives republicans are not heard and sow. There is finally another is the life raft we can cling to, but I dont, I really don't think that's very much. You know the vice could have said, and Biden won the election and he's the president of the United States, and we have one president at a time, and you know all the things that we used to say that sound quaint. Now, after election, but all he did was stand up and say. Well, you know Donald Trump tell me. I could do this thing that that was wrong. I I to be more optimistic, but the fact that the the crazy can of the coop wing of the party is fully in control of the GNP doesn't cheer my heart just because the Wall Street Journal is happy that my pants said. One thing that puts him distance between him and Donald Trump. Unfortunately, I wish I could be more optimism. Just can't

Move by the hour and see to censure, Cheney and kinsmen girl came shortly after former vice president, my pants openly rob Donald Trump. This is what we're talking about, while speaking to a group of concern. but if lawyers so here is the the vice president pushing back at trumps, claim the pants overturned, the twenty twenty election this week, the present a said I had the right to returned the election The trouble is wrong. I had no right to overturn the election Presidency belongs to the american people and the American go alone. I there is no idea more on American, Then the notion than any one person could choose the american president. Truth is there's more at stake. Then our party or political fortunes.

Men and women, if we lose faith in the constitution, we want just lose elections will lose our country. I actually think that's a very significant thing Tom and I differ on that point, because I think that's quite significant and So it is the Wall Street Journal editorial Tory Page and peace entitled might Pincers Constitution the Wall Street Journal added for your page rights. This, MR say, A pen stands out as a rare republican. These days willing to stand up to MR trumps disgraceful behaviour at further Action to many in the GEO peace seem to have lost their constitutional mornings and thrall of one man. Conventional wisdom now is it MR tromp controls or republican Party and can twenty twenty four nomination, if he wants it, Someone should remind voters that Mr Trump ended a three time election loser.

Why mister I've had significant policy successes but with Pensioners receive too little credit for his policy. Impersonal advice is conservative, Workin instincts, help to avoid more than one trompe in self implosion. he was loyal to travel and the press repay them by pressure and publicly and privately to commit an on constitutional act. And we will will end there so it is very interesting if you look Jonathan, no mere at the hour of my tenses service. Here's a guy who actually

before he was selected. Donald Trump vice president was very critical of famine, private conversations. Then Became the loyalist loyalists loyalist, even moving water in the same direction where Mr Trumpet move water at meetings by but last week, actually to me at least that was quite a break. Quite a difference from how he and the rest of the party have been acting and was it lost on me or I'm sure you then he did. It the federalists society now? It was not far off sigh. Of course, one of the groups responsible for some of what the problems are set down. Trumps greatest triumphs, naming three conservative Supreme Court justice

as to the bench while in office in either you're right to trace the arc of pensive career were first while he was likely going to lose his re election in Canada, C4 republican government Deanna when Tromp picked him to be his VP to shore up his support with more traditional conservatives, evangelist goals and then pants became the loyalist loyalists with the dear leader, asked cabinet meetings that he really started appraising the president.

of course been a falling out over January Sixth, after election day, it became when it became clear that Janeway six was president former president and his teams best efforts to prevent Joe Biden from being elected and taking office a lot that plan hinged on pence who had been so oil. They thought he would be again and follow through with what Donald Trump wanted pence did, not, of course, and his life was put in jeopardy that he and his family. We remember the hang MIKE Pence chance that went up from the crowd and pence is now trying to have a downside, delicate, balancing act where he has been firm. That eight I didn't. I think, on January sexy saying I did my constitutional duty. I had no other choice the same time, clearly wants to run for president himself and twenty twenty four we'll see if he does, if Trump Foster with his own bed, but right now, he is trying to continue to say did the right thing, but the same time, not anger, tromp war, Tromp loyalists shoe much while doing so, and I

That's what we heard a lot of other Republicans as well this week and in the wake of those remarks and in the wake of the legitimate political discourse conversation where they can say, hey Pence, we support where my pencil January sixth, but we still think, our trump as the overwhelming favourite and twenty twenty four, and he would have our support- were heeded phenomenon. So Tom. Let me ask you: I am curious, you, you look a lot of data points where we ve been talking about the fact that, Are you there now only sixty percent of Republicans are saying they want Donald Trump to run for re election. Forty percent say they don't. I just quoted the AP poll. That said the majority of Republicans consider themselves Republicans first, only like thirty five percent, considering them themselves to being Trump supporters. First ever party members. That's a pre dramatic swing that you look the fact that report.

And for some reason- and I say summaries and actually know why they're saying things in the polls Republicans even jollier starting, become out criticising the violence. It happened on January, the sex I'm curious. Why do you think we are seeing some movement in the direction of normal, say. I'm not saying that I am not trying to normalize Donald Trump, not trying to normalize my former party, I'm just curious to see any trend lines moving away from the they complete lunacy of the tromp years in the Republican Party. Thank you see. Cross currents, certainly Why are these folks are looking at poles and of the kind you just pointed out and saying There is room now to say I don't have to be part of the called because, as you pointed out in other people, saying I'm a republican first summer, tramper second, but I also think that

their occurrence in the other direction. I mean we're talking about this, as is make it just pointed out, in the shadow of the censure of the last two independence, Republicans in Congress that we're talking about this, while other Republicans have had to push back against the republican national. Maybe trying to wash, January sex that the wash lottery journals. Language was interest. Nay, said that you no good for my pants for saying the President pressured him to commit an unconstitutional act. Doesn't that tell us how far and how low standards in the party him drop that this body here, over a year and later, my pencil getting a golf club for saying? Yes, the present ask me to do something I should have done when in an earlier, I think better time Republicans would have said we have to do something about the fact that the de facto leader of the party ecstasy, is an enemy of the constitution.

and so he knows I am happy to say two cheers firmly pence, but maybe One and a half or two, ice. I still think that this is an you know this, it's too late, and at least a bit too little Dynamic, of course, I think working even coming from Donald Trump are in sea. It is still owns. This are in say now the language in January. The sixth was quote legitimate political discourse is about. to say that violence that sort of violence was legitimate. Political discourse actually, unfortunately, fits very tightly into the definition. Fascism in any country? Well in this country or any other country ass, this, time, and several things can be going at the same time when you are dealing with a situation like this in our democracy, Is the core of the

the discussion here is that it's important to make space for comments this to reinforce good behaviour, because I dont know how things get turned around unless the spaces made for it, and hopefully my pants did that we'll see The select committee investigating January Sixth is piecing together. Information on former president from the literally some of the White House, records handed over to the committee, were reportedly torn and taped back together, some couldn't be sent because they were already gone. The wash post has new reporting morning on just how widespread and indiscriminate trumps shredding of paper and the White was throughout his presidency, despite multiple admires judgments, doing so was against federal law first reported by poetic.

Oh and twenty eighteen, then president trumps staffers often had to piece together papers he tore because of the Presidential Records act. That is the federal law that requires administrations to keep their files- it is a law, Trump seems to know, have known about here. He is referencing the law when he criticised Speaker Nancy Policy for ripping up. State of the union speech remember that back and twenty twenty. Terrible thing when she ripped up the stage first of all into the official document, you're not allowed it to legal. What you did. She broke the law that was terrible, just terrible so disrespectful to our country and actually very illegal what you did. very illegal, very illegal one law, denial and say I mean everything Trump says is either confession or action. Let's bring and right now Washington, Post, shaggy alimony. You co wrote this new report Jackie

he knew that tearing up these documents were new. That was an illegal act, but you have reporting that he did it repeatedly throughout the administration. Explain that's exactly right. He was told her heatedly by former White House Council Chiefs of Staff, those around him, but the ripping. Can Newton was so bad that they had to implement entirely new protocols around the present, the former president shredding habits. It was actually really fascinating to sort of go into these processes because they are. Actually really important to maintaining our democracy. There is a reason why people want to keep presidential Occurred under the Presidential Records ACT, therefore, the american public. They help historians right history, they add new color mentors. There also really important to just national security issues for the previous administration to leave a detailed record of conversations dialogue? There's various policy converse? It bears various p

see conversations that happened between. Leaders and in different countries and for the next minute to come in and hit the ground running. So they have a record of those decisions made. But this president was very vigilant with his shredding and single handedly made the decision of what records could be thrown out and what was considered presidential record and what Wasn't this is not how it supposed to work. There is an entire office dedicated to this, the White House off its office of records and management, and they are supposed to go around and basically catalogue, every single record that the president touches under the Central record jacked. Essentially, every record that is created in the White House should be stored. Now the national archives, at the end of the day after four years, doesn't want every shred or or a piece of paper, but there's a process for a reason. One day,

that really set out in my mind, a historian told me that over the weekend that when Sdr was in office, she was such a meticulous rougher keeper. He kept this amazing diary that she, including details like where do I sign in his wife, came over for dinner on x date with him and Eleanor, and they stayed in this room. They this for dinner and they left at this time the next day, and this helps just painting more colorful and better picture of history. These records belong to the american public under the former president, did not give to shreds

about any of these documents that we're going Jackie, its job and well played there not sure resident trump would have had Albert Einstein over for dinner. Two questions for you on this one, though this is against the law. There isn't really much teeth to this regulation right, there's, not a punishment for President Trump faces for shrank documents and, secondly, how much of a hindrance has this been true to Jerry six committee as they continue their investigation yeah. These are two really good points were not exactly sure sort of the impetus for our most recent reporting, which is that the national archives actually had a retrieve multiple boxes and out of the ordinary amount from Marilla go from there President. Last month a coup potentially have to do with January six, since there has been a lot of request and the national archives has been

sponsors to those requests to the January six committee. We ran a comment by seventy Murphy's office, she's a panel us on the committee who said that, while this failure is not shocking, it might not necessarily impede the work of the committee, since they have a lot of sources and methods for getting their hands on various documents. So if they wanted something they would potentially go to staffers or those who were with the former president. Who could then doc, and and lay out those records them elves, but on the question of the enforcement mechanism. You're right this is the pra- is unfortunately, fairly toothless. It's very rare and uncommon and challenging for the national archives to then go out and punish the president for his failure to keep a comprehensive. records management system in place, but you know this: former president has said, a lot of new precedent and and will see if maybe that changes this time around.

Our Jackie thank you thinking so much Sri Gray, reporting tsar ways. We love having on the show thanks so much in Tom. He can but go back and look at the screeching, the howling and the whining and snowflake melting over Hillary Clinton emails and and she destroy, and how could you dare she how Dare she use? private email and and how dare she delete some of these documents when you have Donald Trump? consciously shredding documents as president of the United States, knowing that breaking the law, every The way here there's anything that really indicates consciousness of guilt. In how sick there your desk, ripping paper up in our former federal employee. You know,

records there is our there isn't records act, and I just have this image in my mind, of the port folks undergone pull things out of waste baskets and peace them together, because this guy eminent think it's also a minor of just how weird Donald Trump is that you know the president. I stayed the same there like ripping paper apart and throwing them and waste baskets, but There was an outcry about Hillary Clinton because again there is a federal regulation. There were things bed, you know she didn't we're just more wrong, but again, it shows you how our standards have changed over the years that even now we had a president who was acting like a personal added shredder MIKE do better than Jackie were Jackie, just send back, and I was sitting at his desk shredding stuff and then

having people actually have to peace them together to try to rescue the historical record of a presidential administration. But I thank again, I think you know the term comes to my mind is consciousness of guilt. He knew there were things, and I just want to. Put in the barn bags and never see them and destroy my maker. You know it talking about the hypocrisy. We see Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. You can talk about Trump, can earn for far deleting emails, while he's consciously destroying come in said, have direct relevance on it. presidencies. It gives you the presidency, then, of course, that quote that what did he say I'll only mob mobsters, though they invoke the fifth amendment, because it guilty and You look at one trapper after another trapper through the past few years.

Nineteen Milestone has more than nine hundred thousand people have died from virus has a Friday in research. Vice President Biden urge to every American to get vaccinated, saying the toll would have been higher without vaccines. but New corona virus cases are falling quickly across the country. According to the

York Times fewer than half as many infections are being identified each day, as at the peak of the a crown surge in MID January. New cases are plummeting and almost every state can this and Virginia new infection reports are down about fifty percent in the last two weeks in New York in Maryland, new cases are down more than seventy percent. In the last Sunday, the numbers in New York is you look at this for all the United States going down, but as a drop in places New York across the EAST Coast Florida. Those numbers for immigrants are plummeting and go and going straight down, which is which is great. News of Virginia

has temporarily halted and executive order from the States republican governor, which made mask wearing ops optional in schools. The circuit court judge sided with seven school districts on Friday, who are suing governor, Glenn young king over the law in his own or last month young gave parents the power to choose whether their children, war masks and schools, regardless of The visual district policies judge asserted that not even the governor can override Virginias constitution, which grants schoolboy. with the power to make health and safety decision, since it took a fat at least seventy Virginia school districts had defied the order and continued to require masks for all Stew, Zalm Nicholls. This is another one of these things were. as somebody as former Republican who actually still conservative and still believes, yellow, believes things that,

We can choose to believe part of this again, I understand that politics, especially covered politics, makes a lot republican governors. Stupid young can seems to be cut from a different cloth, but what did We always say what all away said. Why why why Republicans it came in with me? Ninety four said was we want to put the decisions for our schools close to the parents. Teachers. The stuff Since then, cool boards. That's what we want is many decisions to be made on how they run their skulls and you these laboratories, legislative laboratories, educational laboratories and fifty states, and Trust local school boards to know best for them. Now you you take a state like floored. It has sixty seven counties. My today right, clean different

Then, let's say, as can be a county and sixty seven counties in between there, like four different states for different cultures and yet Ryan dissenters. Here you get the Virginia governor than in Virginia governor of Virginia. You get these other lookin governors who wears out. We're gonna tell every school what to do in our state, who can tell every small business what to do in our state. It is the end assess absorption. Bottom up believe that locality localities no to do best when it comes to schools and not about schools, conservative used to be about less bureaucracy and less central control you no money. People tax and legislative and govern as close to the Bob affected by those policies as they could with national government doing things like making sure that Institution and its rights are found

consistently throughout the United States that there was a common defence that you know there were interstate roads and airports, and things like that. It's amazing that the Republicans once the party of Smaller government and local control is now that the governor of rule by the highest executive officer, they can find the will implement what they want. You know whether and that is indeed the eminence remarkable, because this is the kind of thing republicans used to complain about twenty, I've and thirty years ago too many mandates coming out of Washington or stay capitals and that you know you to trust people in the towns. They lived in again within the limits of the constitution, which was why we have a federal government to make sure that we all follow the constitution and don't trample on the rights of other citizens, but it is just the system. Aid seems to me that the same route,

wilkins we're all you know in a ladder about big governments and big government and judges are now relying on governors and control of the courts to get what they want, because they can't seem to convince anyone in the electoral process to agree with them. in the end they want to stab. Maybe they want to step on the decisions of teachers they want to step on the decisions of principles they want to step on the decisions of school boards, It's just again it's the antithesis of what they claim to want. Slowly, walnut duress, governor fail Murphy will no longer require students in school employees to wear masks. It's a notable change for the Democrat who champion some of the nation's most stringent mandates during the pandemic. As Times Frame said the decision signals of deliberate shift towards triggering the corona virus as a part of daily life

Pennsylvania's democratic governor rescinded his state school mask mandate last month in New York in Connecticut are now re evaluating schoolmaster, mandates as well and finally, the most dramatic golf shots.

National security adviser, Jake Sullivan yesterday said any conflict would come at quote enormous human cost, but that the USA and its allies are ready to respond to any contingency.

Core in the window where something could happen, that is, a military escalation and invasion of Ukraine could happen at any time. We believe that the Russians have put in place the capabilities to me. a significant military operation into Ukraine and I've been working hard to prepare a response a new. U S, intelligence assessment! Fines! Moscow has already assembled seventy percent of the forces. It would need to launch a full scale. Invasion of Ukraine through Report says the Kremlin were to attack ukrainian Capital Kiev would be the most likely to be captured in the early days of the invasion, possibly within the first. forty eight hours. It also says that as many as twenty five thousand ukrainian troops could be killed or wounded and up to five million people could become rest

jeez so Tom, I'm curious. What is that? What is your take on where the United States is right now and NATO allies? Are we adequately prepared for a possible russian invasion or have we taken the appropriate steps to deter such invasion not too hard question, because there is much we can do cranes. Not a NATO ally, we have reinforced existing NATO allies. We send troops to those areas as a show of solidarity with our allies. But if this panes

going to involve us, it's going to be a cross border invasion from Russia. The Ukraine that isn't going to involve, U S, forces or NATO, and all we can do- is worn about sanctions and about how difficult we can make life for the russian oligarchy. If they do. This is by yours. Do right now by doing enough right now descended the right messages. I think, he's doing everything he can yeah. I think he's. Do I don't think there's much more, he could do. He certainly can threaten a military response. I wish he were being being a little clearer and the White House started to go in this direction about talking about the way that they can really make. This hurt for the people around prudent

and and their money and their ability to move easily through the capitals of the world. But I think that you know at this point there isn't much Biden can save this whole thing is inside Putin's head only. He knows why he would do it and what he wants to do and deterring that is really really hard job, especially when this isn't the NATO alliance that we're talking about here. Meanwhile, President Biden is scheduled to host german chancellor. Olaf showed TAT the White House later today. The meaning comes, as Germany has faced criticism over not taking a more active role with its european allies in preparing a response, to russian aggression towards Ukraine, among the subjects reported lay on the agenda, a russian sanctions packs package and the nearly complete natural gas pipeline connecting Germany and Russia. details according to the Washington post. This will be

german chancellor. First visit to the wash. Washington since taking office two months ago. That organised, I guess, Jonathan or mere. The question is a love who I mean this is a guy who is the german chancellor ghosting I don't lie all of the NATO, but all of Washington D, DOT c he's been trying to keep his head down as much as possible German, even trying to do as little as they can to deter this massive invasion of a european country they give us? The White House is red on the new chancellor, as well as Germany, where it is now. Is Germany moving in the right direction? Finally,

has been the source of some real frustration in the binding ministration that Germany has been slow to join other european allies, key NATO allies and really resisting what Russia is doing here and in part, for the reasons we need make it just outlined about the Energy pipeline Heather Dependent on on IRAN. Russia, for that there is some hope, though, that this meeting can get Germany more where the? U S wants it to be, of course, Chancellor shoal of just over four Ongoloo Merkel, who would of course Germany. For so long, I was sort of sea as the poor whisper in India she was the real conduit to the russian leader,

The timing of this meeting is also comes at a key moment for diplomacy is the stand off increases and ukrainian border, just as President Biden is meeting with the german chancellor today. Also we have this early. This week, french per President Mccrone is meeting with Putin, which has seen a significant moment where he's gonna try to lead his voice to DE escalate, maybe step into Merkel shoes there as the Putin Whisper of Europe, but it comes with a real sort of break down here. Expectations where we see merely have by the day the Ukrainian still saying look calm down here. We don't think this is going to happen. We don't think this innovations imminent. We think this is prudent to Bluffing, but the warnings are getting just more and more dire from the west, including the Pentagon. Officials who talk to reporters over the weekend outlined that they believe This could happen at any time, though, most suspect would be after the limp ex. If it were to happen, we supplement G Beijing the other day and it could lead to, in addition to the ukrainian military forces. Over fifty thousand Ukrainians

civilians killed or injured. It would be cataclysmic if this were to happen, which is why there's so much emphasis on this diplomacy this week, right Tom Nicholls.
