Rachel Maddow shares reporting by CNN that the House Select Committee on the January 6th Attack on the Capitol is seeking the phone records of some Republican members of Congress, as well as Donald Trump and members of his family as part of the broader examination of the role of Trump's effort to overturn his election loss in triggering the January 6th riot.

#MSNBC #Trump #January6
okay, who wished for “May You Live in Interesting Times”
Ok, far as I know that’s a common saying from Chinese culture.
Its an insult disguised as a pleasantry. The other example I remember is “May you come to the attention of the authorities”.
I’m not from any culture even close to that. We are known as Skips, a multi-ethnic people in a distant and fabled land.
@Lily Jade I believe that was Joe Biden and he made it happen.
Ancient Chinese curse
@Craig Nelson yup biden and China, not a coincidence.
Nick Land
How do you “stop” something by yelling from behind a barrier a hundred yards away? …”will be wild” – Donald Trump (regarding the January 6th insurrection where people came armed with weaponry and rope and zip ties, etc.)
Weaponry eh
I’m not aware of the weapons seized or anyone charged with an insurrection. Where’s the proof? The majority of those being charged address being charged with misdemeanors. The FBI even said there was no plot. This sounds like Russian collusion all over again. Repeat the same story over and over and enough idiots will take hold.
@Brian Cloud Weapons have been seized, this information is freely available.
@Saul T. Nuts BAD EXCUSE!!
@bus driver it’s not an excuse, it’s a fact. Smooth brain
IQ45: it was a perfect phone call
Echo chamber. Democrats are SICKENING.
@i dont have time 2 reply Still not as bad as a president compromised by Russia using a disgusting video.
@homesmaybe but the american people voted for them putting them in power.
13 dead American soldiers and the blood of many more have been spilled and you have the nerve to call the orange man dumb. Everyone one of you that voted for biden have the blood of these men and women on your hands due to bidens incompetence. Each and every biden supporter is a hypocrite and a fool.
liberals are a pathetic excuse for an American… their brain function is right up there with the man they voted for.
If I had a buck for every time I heard someone say ‘ At any other point in time … ‘ or ‘ This is unprecedented … ‘ during the trump insanity ( a period still occurring it must be said ) , such a rich man I would be .
I want 5 bucks for every time a MSM news broadcaster says “This is a threat to our democracy”.
To bad Trump is total broke and is no begging for money stop endorsing this clown he owes to many people and to many countries
@Leeanne Bishop lemming he made 2.4. billion from his company will not being involved how much did you make.
@JT You are the definition of eyes wide shut.
Let’s get Nancy Polosi’s emails and phone calls to the Capitol Police, on that day..
INDICTMENTS…..THEN THE STORY…THANKS
“I armed terrorists to overthrow Afghanistan!”
– *Joe Biden* 🇨🇳
Can imagine if they were conspiring to take another podium form the Capital, or trying to get people to put their feet up on Pelosi’d desk? It would have been the end of the REPUBLIC!!! …Lol….you people are dumb.
The Don’s, words would say it was a perfect phone calls and a perfect White House meeting with some of the greatest thinkers in the history of any White House!!!
@Betty White The Vibrator Slayer the Clinton’s killed him. Move on…
@Beverley Ibrahim truth hurts
@i dont have time 2 reply THAT’S trump’s title. TRAITOR TRUMP.
I want to hear the phone call with Obammy and Biden talking about holding back aid if Ukraine doesnt “Fire that lawyer”.
@Betty White The Vibrator Slayer ha. 28 flights for Bill Clinton. Clinton had him killed. That’s what the Clinton’s do…
“…don’t be too gentle when you put them in the car, ok?”
@Caryn G Compton if you become my friend I will teach you how to be a patriot. But that means you’ll have to get rid of your anti-American values. Also you going to have to quit your little antifa club 🤣
@Caryn G Compton I think the real reason that you’re upset is because us Patriots are making you anti-americans provide ID next time you vote 😁.
Trump 2024 voter ID ❤️🇺🇸
@Caryn G Compton when you get out your Antifa meeting, I’m here .I will do my best to talk you out of Rioting..
Oops ,I meant peaceful protesting 🤣
I wish I could run into one of you in the streets. I just wish. You people want to turn this country into a communist state because you hate yourself and you hate everyone who’s ever made something of them selves in an honest fashion. God u make me sick.
@Pickle Rick Shhhh Caryn G Compton is in deep sleep dreaming about the best president in History Donald Trump 🇺🇸
Jim Jordan is stuffed!
JJ rocks! I love it when Democrats attack people like him, they are completely triggered!
They will be inlaid upon the congressional halls!
They will sentence to eternity in prison.
Thanks for exposing yourself
Are you crazy. What they are proposing to do is against federal law. You can’t just take someone’s phone records without a warrant. This is illegal. This is America, we are not communists. This madness needs to end.
@Pickle Rick Not unless you have probable cause.
Remember mr. Adam Schiff defending not to disclose his phonerecords?
His records had already been disclosed and shared, illegally. This is being done legally, through subpoenas.
@Mary Lynne Being attempted, through subpoenas.
Through Investigation.
Complete Transparency.
Zero Secrets.
All the way to the top.
You seem upset
President Trump had the most transparent and investigated administration in us history and still no crime found
@William Yahwehson
Sure, but make sure to include unelected policy makers and influencers.
Military officials.
Intelligence officials.
Ambassadors.
Think Tanks.
Policy Groups.
Non-military advisors to the Military.
Etc.
All of a sudden the Afghanistan debacle is forgotten😂😂😂😂 gotta love the media in America 😆😆👏👏
@Mark 15Vintage if that’s true, and I’m not doubting you, that’s a failure on Biden’s part.
Still the overarching stupidity is that Trump negotiated a bad deal.
Congrads ISIS…CNN & BLM got bombed out of Afghanistan..CNN ran like a coward,,,lol
@Car Bul This is far worse than Saigon ’75… its not even close. This withdrawal was handled so badly that I almost can’t believe this can be chalked up to incompetence. You have to TRY to fail this badly; almost like they need an excuse to re-enter and continue the forever war.
@Notapathetic Leftylooney but why are liberals ignoring Biden when he is continuing the same policies of trump?
I thought they hated trumps polices?
so the news should only be about one thing?
Get these criminals!!
There should be something there. Thanks Rachel for the inf. :O)
We are still on with this? Oh my god…. what a cancer
Yeah we’re still on with it. Still hasn’t been any ACCOUNTABILITY. Oh I wonder, how will you blame Biden when the next Capitol root happens???
@Mojo_Quid If he was guilty we wouldn’t be dragging this out forever. Those people did what they did. He didn’t make them show up.
We don’t take kindly to treason so we will continue to hunt down all involved.
@Michael S You aren’t hunting anything down lol
@Mojo_Quid See the problem with this “Jan 6th riot” is it doesn’t make any sense, if there were thousands of Trump supporters at the Capitol and Trump calls for the insurrection, then the Capitol would had easily been overtaken. There’s not enough cops to stop thousands of them. If they did, then over thousands would be in jail by now. You would need the military to stop this.
MSNBC:
-literally struggles to cover for the current president…
-best they can do is go back to trump to distract
Probably because this president is boring and the last one literally tried to burn down American democracy just because he lost
@June DiMond and the August 31 WITHDRAWAL that YOU are talking about is OBAMAS afganistan WITHDRAWAL order that he signed in 2014. TRUMP stopped the WITHDRAWAL and then dropped the mother of all bombs on AFGHANISTAN in 2017 within his first six months.. which then reignited tensions with Iran and Iraq … OBAMA and. Biden ENDED the Iraq war..and we were COMPLETELY out of Iraq December 2011….we went BACK to Iraq under TRUMP..when he had soleimani assassinated…and then Iraq attacked the US embassy in Baghdad in 2019…trump sent 14000 troops to Iraq .when we were OUT of Iraq .for years…trump signed the deal with the Taliban when the Afghanistan Government didn’t WANT him to… Because they KNEW this would happen..trump did it anyway..trump should have STARTED the WITHDRAWAL..but he didn’t..he just sat at his rallies bragging that he brought troops home from Afghanistan and you all applauded him…he never said he brought CIVILIANS home…and trumps agreement is ONLY SPECIFIC TO THE MILITARY…read the agreement…it’s available to the public…
@Syenna Watson I do admire people that stay with their convictions no matter what. Best of luck to you Syenna.
@TexTech there’s evidence to back up my convictions…
There’s no EVIDENCE to back up ANY of the things you guys peddle…
But you all already know this already
Congrads ISIS…CNN & BLM got bombed out of Afghanistan..CNN ran like a coward,,,lol
we sent 26000 national guard members to protect theses liers and cheats but sent 5000 armed forces to protect 15000 in afganistan ? hmmmm, sounds perfect
@dtpEX YT Trump thinks that airports existed in 1776 & that Frederick Douglass is still alive.
@Robbie Weirdicht You see you’ve just admitted how Trump powerful still is. He can still set things up without even being in the WH. And also he can come in the middle of the night to hunt you down.Waaahhhhhhh… You see how scary he is.
Congrads ISIS…CNN & BLM got bombed out of Afghanistan..CNN ran like a coward,,,lol
@Robbie Weirdicht Trump set Biden up to fail🤣 you just love slurping the propaganda 🥒🤤
@Robbie Weirdicht there was going to be a mess regardless. Yeah when JB is at the helm🤣
You’ve lost control of your zombies. They will come for you once they realized you’ve used them.
@Viva La Raza! why wasn’t anyone ever actually charged with “insurrection”???
I strongly believe the zombies will collapse and burn under their own pathology of ideological possession, they are possessed. They will still go after anything with a functioning brain for a while though
Joe Biden is a disgrace to his country. The soldiers mother is right.
Congrads ISIS…CNN & BLM got bombed out of Afghanistan..CNN ran like a coward,,,lol
Lmao says the guy who actually casted a vote to literally put a mentally unfit moron in office 😂😂😂
Instead of story after story that does nothing but bash trump, how about run some coverage on what’s happening now…
@W W That’s all every main stream news outlet does. They’re all trash. best we can do is watch everything and then come to our own conclusions.
@Pedro Noa: Right back at ya! 😁
Congrads ISIS…CNN & BLM got bombed out of Afghanistan..CNN ran like a coward,,,lol
@El Coolio Magnifico I thought liberals were anti war why are they ignoring Biden air strikes
Most Trumpers are more sensitive than the politically correct liberals they despise. They can whine with the best of them.
Just like his taxes. We are not going to see them. Corruption has deep pockets.
