- SECURITY COMMITTEES. - SHE JOINS US NOW. - WHAT IS YOUR UNDERSTANDING NOW - ON THE DISPOSITION OF THE HOUSE - WHEN IT COMES TO THE IMPEACHMENT - VOTE? - REP. DEMINGS: THIS PAST WEEK HAS - BEEN AN UNBELIEVABLE WEEK - STARTING WITH WHAT HAPPENED, THE - ATTACK ON THE CAPITAL LAST - WEDNESDAY. - IT WOULD BE GREAT IF PRESIDENT - WHO ARE VICE PRESIDENT TRUMP - WOULD INVOKE THE 25TH AMENDMENT - WHERE HE CAN REMOVE A PRESIDENT - IMMEDIATELY. - OBVIOUSLY, IT DOES NOT APPEAR HE - HAS AN APPETITE FOR THAT, BUT - THE HOUSE IS READY TO MOVE WITH - IMPEACHMENT. - TONIGHT, WE WILL MOVE ON THE - RESOLUTION ASKING VICE PRESIDENT - PENCE TO INVOKE THE 25TH - AMENDMENT. - JUDY: YOU WERE VERY INVOLVED IN
- THE FIRST IMPEACHMENT PROCESS - AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP A LITTLE - OVER A YEAR AGO. - HOW WILL THIS WOULD BE - DIFFERENT? - IS IT EASIER, IS IT HARDER? - REP. DEMINGS: IT IS REALLY ABOUT - HOLDING THE PRESIDENT - ACCOUNTABLE. - NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW. - WE KNOW HOW THE IMPEACHMENT - HEARING AND TRIAL WENT LAST - YEAR. - THE PRESIDENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN - HELD ACCOUNTABLE, HE WAS NOT. - BUT LET'S FAST-FORWARD TO LAST - WEDNESDAY. - WE WERE ENGAGED IN CERTIFYING - THE ELECTORAL VOTES, WHICH IS - PART OF THE PEACEFUL TRANSITION - OF POWER, AND MEMBERS WERE - ATTACKED BY AN ANGRY MOB THAT - WAS INCITED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP. - THE PRESIDENT KNEW OR HE SHOULD - HAVE KNOWN THAT HIS ACTIONS AND - WORDS, OR THE ACTIONS AND WORDS - OF HIS ENABLERS, WOULD HAVE - INCITED HIS FOLLOWERS TO - VIOLENCE.
- WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? - FIVE PEOPLE DIED LAST WEDNESDAY, - INCLUDING A U.S. CAPITOL POLICE - OFFICER WHO WAS JUST TRYING TO - DO HIS JOB TO KEEP THE CAPITAL - SAFE AND TO KEEP US SAFE. - JUDY: WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THE - ARGUMENTS OUT THERE AMONG SOME - REPUBLICANS THAT HE HAS ONLY GOT - 7, 8 DAYS LEFT IN OFFICE AS - PRESIDENT, WHAT GOOD DOES IT - SERVE TO MAKE THIS MOVE? - REP. DEMINGS: I GO BACK TO THE - VICE PRESIDENT COULD REMOVE HIM - IMMEDIATELY, AND A PORTION OF - THE CABINET. - THEY HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO DO THAT. - US FULFILLING OUR CONSTITUTIONAL - RESPONSIBILITY HAS NOTHING TO DO - WITH THE CLOCK. - THE PRESIDENT INCITED A RIOT, HE - INCITED PEOPLE TO TRY AND COME - TO THE CAPITOL AND OVERTHROW THE - GOVERNMENT TO PREVENT US FROM - DOING OUR WORK.
- HE HAS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE - FOR THAT. - THIS IS ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY. - SINCE THE VICE PRESIDENT WILL - NOT INVOKE THE 25TH AMENDMENT, - THAT LEAVES US WITH IMPEACHMENT. - WE ARE GOING TO LIVE UP TO OUR - CONSTITUTIONAL RESPONSIBILITY - AND WE WILL BE HAVING THAT VOTE - TOMORROW. - JUDY: SINCE DEMOCRATS ARE IN THE - MAJORITY, IT SOUNDS AS IF THERE - IS NOTHING TO STOP THE - IMPEACHMENT VOTE FROM PASSING. - I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT WHAT - HAPPENED LAST WEEK. - DO YOU NOW BELIEVE THAT THERE - WAS INSIDE HELP FOR THE RIOTERS, - EITHER FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT OR - FROM MEMBERS OF CONGRESS? - REP. DEMINGS: FIRST OF ALL, LET - ME SAY THAT THE UNITED STATES - CAPITOL, THOSE OFFICERS ON THE - FRONT LINES, DID AN AMAZING JOB - CONSIDERING THEY WERE - UNDERSTAFFED, DID NOT HAVE - ADEQUATE RESOURCES OR SUPPORT - FROM OTHER AGENCIES. - HOWEVER, ONCE THE CAPITAL WAS
- BREACHED, IT DOES APPEAR THAT - SOME OF THE RIOTERS KNEW EXACTLY - WHERE THEY WERE GOING. - THERE WERE OFFICES, AS YOU HEARD - EARLIER, THAT ARE UNMARKED. - MANY MEMBERS DO NOT KNOW WHERE - THOSE OFFICES ARE BUT RIOTERS - CERTAINLY KNEW WHERE TO GO. - WE WILL BE LOOKING INTO - EVERYTHING. - AS YOU KNOW, THERE ARE SEVERAL - INVESTIGATNS INTO WHO HAD A - PART IN COORDINATING THIS - VICIOUS AND VIOLENT ATTACK. - JUDY: FOR THE MEMBERS OF - CONGRESS WHO SPOKE AT THE RALLY, - ENCOURAGING THE CROWD WHO SHOWED - UP IN WASHINGTON LAST WEEK? - REP. DEMINGS: MEMBERS WHO SAID - THINGS LIKE TAKING NAMES AND - KICKING ASS? - I THINK IF YOU LOOK AT - STATEMENTS THAT WERE MADE DURING - THE RALLY, AND THEN IMMEDIATELY, - THE CROWD MARCHED DOWN TO THE
- CAPITAL AND TRIED TO DO JUST - THAT, BREACHING THE CAPITAL. - YOU HAVE HEARD THE THREATS - AGAINST THE VICE PRESIDENT AND - OTHERS. - SO, CERTAINLY, ANY MEMBER OF - CONGRESS WHO MAY HAVE - PARTICIPATED IN THIS EFFORT TO - OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT, FIVE - PEOPLE DEAD, ONE OF THEM A - POLICE OFFICER, CERTAINLY MUST - BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE ALONG WITH - THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED - STATES. - JUDY: WHAT DOES THAT MEAN - HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE? - REP. DEMINGS: THE INVESTIGATION - HAS TO MOVE FORWARD SO WE CAN - UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHAT ROLE - THEY PLAYED. - WE KNOW THERE WILL BE INTERNAL - INVESTIGATIONS FROM THE - COMMITTEE ON ETHICS. - THEY WILL BE CRIMINAL - INVESTIGATIONS THAT ARE ONGOING. - ONCE TESTIMONY COMES IN, - WITNESSES COME FORWARD WATCHING - THE VIDEO, LEARNING EXACTLY WHAT
- ROLE ANY MEMBER OF CONGRESS - PLAYED, THEY SHOULD BE HELD - ACCOUNTABLE TO THE FULLEST - EXTENT. - JUDY: CONGRESSWOMAN VAL DEMINGS, - WE WILL CERTAINLY BE WATCHING - VERY CLOSELY TOMORROW AS THIS - HISTORIC SECOND MOVED TO IMPEACH - PRESIDENT TRUMP TAKES PLACE. - THANK YOU VERY MUCH. - REP. DEMINGS: THANK YOU. - JUDY: AS YOU JUST ARE HEARING, - DEMOCRATS ARE NEARLY UNANIMOUS - IN THEIR DECISION TO IMPEACH - PRESIDENT TRUMP A SECOND TIME. - THE QUESTION IS WHAT ABOUT - REPUBLICANS. - CONGRESSMAN TOM REED OF NEW YORK - IS, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE - CO-CHAIR OF THE PROBLEM SOLVERS - CAUCUS AND HE JOINS ME NOW. - CONGRESSMAN, THANK YOU VERY MUCH - FOR JOINING US. - WHERE DO THINGS STAND RIGHT NOW? - WE ARE HEARING THAT THERE ARE AT - LEAST TWO HOUSE MEMBERS WHO WILL - VOTE TO IMPEACH, CONGRESSMAN - CHENEY, CONGRESSMAN CANS ANGER
- DEBT CONGRESSMAN -- CONGRESSMAN - KINZINGER. - WHERE DO YOU STAND? - REP. REED: I AM ADAMANTLY - OPPOSED TO IMPEACHMENT. - THIS IS A VERY CONCERNING TIME - FOR OUR COUNTRY. - THIS IS NOT JUST ABOUT THE - EVENTS OF JANUARY 6. - THIS IS ALSO ABOUT OUR - CONSTITUTION. - AND WHAT IMPEACHMENT MEANS, WITH - REGARDS TO WHEN SOMEONE IS - IMPEACHED, WHAT THAT MEANS TO - THE INSTITUTION OF CONGRESS, - INSTITUTION OF THE EXECUTIVE - BRANCH. - WE HAVE CONSTITUTIONAL SPEECH - ISSUES HERE. - WE NEED THOSE INVESTIGATIONS. - THAT AN AN IS WHY I AM OFFERING - AN ALTERNATIVE PATH WITH REGARDS - TO CENSURE, THEN CONTINUE DOWN - THIS PATH TO SEE WHATEVER - ACCOUNTABLE MEASURES NEED TO BE - DEPLOYED IF ANY. - JUDY: WHAT ABOUT THE COMMENTS BY - OTHER REPUBLICANS IN THE HOUSE - LIKE CONGRESSWOMAN CHENEY, JOSE
- BECAUSE OF THE PRESIDENT'S - DIRECT ROLE IN ENCOURAGING AND - INCITING WHAT HAPPENED IN THE - CAPITOL, HE SHOULD BE REMOVED? - REP. REED: I RESPECT MY - COLLEAGUES. - I THINK I HAVE DEMONSTRATED OVER - THE YEARS, BEING A PROUD - REPUBLICAN BUTTON WORKING WITH - PROUD DEMOCRATS AND HAVING THOSE - DIALOGUES. - I THINK MY COLLEAGUE, LIZ CHENEY - , MENTIONED THIS IS A VOTE OF - CONSCIENCE, THIS IS ABOUT THE - CONSTITUTION, ONE OF THOSE DEEP - VOTES WE HAVE TO REFLECT UPON. - I RESPECT HER CONCLUSION BUT I - DISAGREE WITH IT. - IT IS BASED ON MY READ OF THE - CONSTITUTION, MY OATH TO THE - CONSTITUTION. - BUT ALSO THE SNAP IMPEACHMENT, - WHAT THAT WILL DO TO FUTURE - IMPEACHMENTS, FREE SPEECH - RIGHTS. - EVEN DEPLORABLE COMMENTS HAVE TO - BE LOOKED AT FOR THE PROTECTION - IT PROVIDES FOR FREE SPEECH. - JUDY: ARE YOU SURPRISED WITH THE
- REPORTING THAT SENATE MAJORITY - LEADER MITCH IS NOW IN FAVOR OF - IMPEACHING THE PRESIDENT? - REP. REED: I HAVE SEEN THESE - REPORTS AND I HAVE NOT SEEN - COMMENTARY DIRECTLY FROM SENATOR - MCCONNELL. - THAT IS ALSO THE FRENZY. - I TRY TO BE A RECENT MEMBER OF - CONGRESS, TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND - ONLY COMMENT ON THINGS THAT I - KNOW FIRSTHAND. - I THINK THESE REPORTS ARE COMING - FROM AIDS AND OTHER FOLKS. - RATHER THAN COMMENT ON NEWS - REPORTS, I LET THEM SPEAK FOR - THEMSELVES AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - TRY TO LISTEN AND TALK TO THE - AMERICAN PEOPLE. - NOW IS THE TIME TO NIGHT THE - COUNTRY, CALM THE COUNTRY, NOT - RESPOND TO COMMENTARY THAT MAY - BE ERRONEOUS. - JUDY: I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE - CERTAINLY AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT
- UNITING THE COUNTRY. - THERE ARE REPORTS THAT AMONG - HOUSE REPUBLICANS, YOUR - LEADERSHIP IS NOT LOBBYING YOU - TO IMPOSE -- TO OPPOSE - IMPEACHMENT. - REP. REED: WE HAD A LENGTHY - CONVERSATION THE OTHER DAY. - I THINK THEY RECOGNIZE THAT THIS - IS A VOTE OF CONSEQUENCE, A VOTE - BASED ON CONSTITUTIONAL - PRINCIPLES. - THE REPUBLICAN PARTY THAT I - BELIEVE IN, WE ARE PROUD - REPUBLICANS, PROUD OF OUR BELIEF - STRUCTURE, AND WE HAVE THE - RESPONSIBILITY TO RESPECT OUR - COLLEAGUES. - FOR COLLEAGUES WHO MAY BE - THKINGHOW DO I USE THIS FOR - POLITICAL ADVANTAGE, AS I SAID - ON THE ISSUE OF THE ELECTORAL - BOAT, IF YOU ARE PLAYING - POLITICS WITH THIS COMING NOW IS - NOT THE TIME FOR THIS. - NOW IS THE TIME TO RISE AND LEAD
- THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, NOT WITH - POLITICAL CALCULATIONS BUT WHAT - IS RIGHT BASED ON THE - CONSTITUTION AND YOUR HEART AND - YOUR CONSCIENCE. - JUDY: I HEAR YOU SPEAKING ABOUT - CENSURE. - WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE PRESIDENT - TRUMP'S FUTURE SHOULD BE IN THE - REPUBLICAN PARTY? - REP. REED: I THINK A LOT IS - GOING TO DEPEND ON BETWEEN NOW - AND JANUARY 20. - I THINK WE WILL HAVE TO KEEP A - CLOSE EYE ON IT. - I THINK THE FUTURE OF THE - REPUBLICAN PARTY WITH PRESIDENT - TRUMP, THE IDEAS AND POLICIES - THAT HE HAS INSPIRED, IS - SOMETHING WE WILL HAVE A - CONTINUATION OF A DEBATE AND BE - PART OF. - I THINK WILL REALLY HAVE TO KEEP - ANYE ON IS HOW WE GET BETWEEN - NOW AND THE 20TH TO SEE HOW THAT - LEGACY GOES. - AT THE END OF THE DAY, I - ENCOURAGE THE PRESIDENT. - I WAS AMONG THE FIRST EIGHT TO - ENDORSE HIM. - I KNOW HIM AS AN INDIVIDUAL. - I ENCOURAGE HIM AT THIS POINT IN - TIME, GET US THROUGH A PEACEFUL
- TRANSITION, NO MORE VIOLENCE. - LOWER THE TEMPERATURE, NOT RISE. - JUDY:RE YOU SAYING IT IS - IMPORTANT TO WATCH WHAT HAPPENS - BETWEEN NOW AND THE 20TH BECAUSE - YOU ARE CONCERNED THAT HE MAY DO - SOMETHING? - REP. REED: HE HAS THE ABILITY - OBVIOUSLY TO INFLUENCE MILLIONS - OF AMERICANS. - WE ARE GETTING REPORTS OF - ADDITIONAL VIOLENCE COMING OUT. - PUBLIC REPORTS ON THAT. - IT IS IMPORTANT JUST TO SEE HOW - EVERYONE REACTS RIGHT NOW. - THAT IS WHY I AM ALSO OPPOSED TO - SNAP IMPEACHMENT BECAUSE I THINK - THAT WILL ADD TO THE POTENTIAL - INCITEMENT OF VIOLENCE, PEOPLE - RESPOND TO THAT BECAUSE WE ARE - RUSHING TO THIS JUDGMENT. - I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE, BOTH SIDES - OF THE AISLE, NOW IS NOT THE - TIME TO RAISE TEMPERATURE, NOW - IS THE TIME TO LOWER TEMPERATURE - AND TRY TO UNITE THE COUNTRY. - OBVIOUSLY WHAT THE PRESIDENT - DOES BETWEEN NOW AND THE 20TH IS - A VERY IMPORTANT PIECE OF TIME - TO JUDGE WHAT FUTURE ROLE HE
- WILL HAVE IN THE REPUBLICAN - PARTY, IF ANY. - JUDY: IN A QUICK SENTENCE, WHAT - DO YOU WANT THE PRESIDENT TO SAY - TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, IF - ANYTHING? - REP.

- HAVE TO DO MORE CONTACT TRACING - SO WE UNDERSTAND IN WHAT - ENVIRONMENTS THIS VIRUS IS - TRANSMITTING, AND WE NEED TO - UNDERSTAND THAT ANYONE WHO IS IN - CONTACT WITH THE CASES CAN STAY - HOME. - THOSE EFFORTS HAVE REALLY GROUND - TO A HALT AS OF LATE. - THAT IS A DANGEROUS PLACE TO BE - GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE HAVE NOT - YET SEEN THE FULL EFFECTS OF - WHAT HOLIDAY GATHERINGS WILL - LIKELY DO TO OUR CASE NUMBERS. - JOHN: JENNIFER, AN - EPIDEMIOLOGIST, THANK YOU VERY - MUCH. - ♪ - JUDY: NOW, AS THE U.S. ENDURES - THE RAGE OF THE POST-ELECTION, - AND THE RAVAGES OF THE PANDEMIC, - WE TURN OUR SIGHTS OVERSEAS AND - TO THE ONGOING CALAMITIES OF - COVID-19, HUNGER, PRIVATION, - AND THE PLIGHTS OF CHILDREN. - HERE IS AMNA NAWAZ WITH TWO - LEADERS WORKING TO SOLVE THESE

- WEALTHIEST TO STEP UP AND SHOW - THEY CARE. - HAS IT GOTTEN BETTER OR WORSE? - DAVID: IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE IN SO - MANY WAYS. - THE BAD NEWS IS THAT THE NUMBER - OF PEOPLE INCLUDING CHILDREN, - THE NUMBER ON THE STARVATION IS - RISING TO 270 MILLION PEOPLE. - THE SAD FACT IS THAT THERE IS - $400 TRILLION WORTH OF WEALTH. - DURING THE PANDEMIC, - BILLIONAIRES MADE 5.2 AGAIN - DOLLARS IN INCREASED WEALTH PER - DAY. - ALL WE ARE ASKING FOR IS $5 - BILLION TO AVERT FAMINE AROUND - THE WORLD. - I DON'T THINK THAT IS TOO MUCH - TO ASK. - AMNA: HENRIETTA, YOU HAVE BEEN - ISSUING WARNING FLAGS ABOUT WHAT - CHILDREN HAVE GONE THROUGH. - A LOST GENERATION OF CHILDREN - WORLDWIDE. - WHAT DID YOU MEAN BY THAT? - HENRIETTA: WE HAVE RISING - INEQUALITY, A DISTRESSING AMOUNT
