it sure mattered in georgia. the people of georgia should be very proud of their two twos and their state. because georgians and john and rafael went to the united states senate i can confidently say real significant help is on the way. senator ossoff. >> thank you, leader schumer. it's great to be alongside you, senator reverend warnock. the message today for georgia families is very simple. $8200 of additional federal financial relief to help see you and your kids to this pandemic will be included in the senate legislation that we're working to pass right now. $8200 for a family of four in georgia earning $75,000. senator reverend warnock and i were sending to fight for covid relief for the people of our state who have had to face extraordinary childcare costs, as schools have been closed, who have that huge medical bills during this health crisis, , who have seen loss of employment and severe financial distress. families have been facing eviction and foreclosure. we came here to deliver help for the people of

in georgia by pressuring georgia state officials with responsibility for elections to do his bidding. former presidents -- former presidents -- >>> in addition to the events of january 6th at the u.s. capitol, the article of impeachment against donald trump also highlights something that happened four days earlier, trump's phone call with georgia's secretary of state in which trump spent an hour trying to alternately coax and threaten that georgia state official into overturning joe biden's election win in that state. trump told him, quote, i just want to find 11,780 votes. he told the secretary of state that he should tell the public he has recalculated the vote tallies in georgia and discovered that trump actually won. and we know that this is what president trump said because the whole thing is on tape. well, now, a georgia state prosecutor, the district attorney in fulton county, has opened a criminal investigation centered on that phone call. it's a crime in georgia, potentially a felony, to solicit someone to commit voter fraud. but here's another understanding about this, whic

from fulton county, georgia. i just wanted to get your reaction to that, if you didn't mind. >> welling i'm super jealous because if this case ever goes to trial, she's going to have a real jury, and when she presents her case, if she is convincing, as damning in her presentation as the house managers were in the impeachment, she could very well get a guilty verdict. but we've got a very different jury and they've predetermined there's going to be no guilty verdict, at least of many them, so it's kind of nice to see the process of justice work the way it's supposed to or at least see the opening days of that begin. in a way that ends up in front of a real jury and not a compromised senate. >> we are expecting to see the start of the president's defense tomorrow. there's reporting that suggests that they're going to go very short. that they're not going to use anywhere near even half the 16 hours that are allotted to them. i wonder at this point in the process do you feel like there should be witnesses? part of th

now republicans in the state legislature in georgia have introduced a resolution to change the georgia state constitution. suddenly. very quickly. right now. they want to change the constitution so district attorney faunae willis cannot proceed with this investigation into potential crimes by donald trump, at least not the way she's planning to do it. georgia republicans in the legislature have decided that they would like to create a new mandate in the state constitution, they're going to amend the constitution, to say if a crime that's being investigated has anything to do with an election, then the prosecutor investigating that crime can't convene a grand jury in fulton county to look at that. a prosecutor can't convene a grand jury in any one county. republicans in the state legislature now are trying to change the state constitution so that majority minority fulton county cannot have its grand jury decide on subpoenas and evidence and potential indictments in a case like this. no, new rule that they want. their new proposed rule is for any crime related to an election, georgia is

and georgia republicans do not appear eager. according to npr, the text of one voter suppression bill was introduced just one hour before it was passed out of committee giving the democrats on that committee barely any time to find out what was in it. so what happens next in the state of georgia? georgia democrats are still in the minority in the state house and the senate. so, is there anything they can do to stop these changes? joining us now is democratic georgia state representative, rhonda. representative, thank you for joining us. tell me the status of this. this is a remarkable and interesting matter, in that republicans, until this election, were all about early voting and absentee voting. they wrote that law into being. they -- they are the ones who passed these laws into being. >> thank you for having me tonight. yes. we did receive this bill, yesterday. and today, during our committee meeting, it was a hearing in which fellow georgians were able to talk to us about their concerns about hb-531. as we know, georgia has

it harder for people to vote in georgia? >> well, certainly there isn't an overtune of a knee-jerk reaction. the number of bills that have been introduced are much higher than normal. i think this is a bipartisan effort looking forward. i think both democrats and republicans have introduced election reform ideas that are common sense ideas, that aren't trying to make a point but truly trying to make a difference. things like making sure the county's release at the time they close the election, total number of outstanding votes would have made a difference on election night. looking for opportunities to allow counties to start processing those absentee ballots well before the election is over so we don't have to wait days. i'm going to personally work with the democrats and the republicans to try to get some big ideas across the finish line. >> will these new ideas that some republicans are now putting forward actually make it more difficult, let's say, for minority voters in georgia to actually cast their ballot? >> i certai

and the attorney in georgia was fired because he was not aggressive enough in pursuing things. if anyone believes that is the proper conduct of a president carrying out his obligation to defend the constitution and the laws, that's an interesting interpretation of presidential conduct. it's glowft about this one phone call. it's about several other steps the president took in georgia to suggest something had occurred which hadn't occurred, number one, and that three separate recounts were invalid, simply because they did not produce the results the president wanted. that is an essential fact check to the veryifiable history of what happened in georgia, and we need to clarify that. >> o'donnell: and that's why i asked that question, because i think there were so many outright factual inaccuracies made that in case you just dig down, some might just swallow them and believe them to be true. on these points let's bring in cbs news legal expert jeffrey rosen. we heard mr. castor start his closing argument in saying, "look, we're not trying to-- we agree, we denounce the violence, b

it happened in georgia. fulton county district attorney willis announced she has officially begun a criminal investigation of interference in the georgia presidential election process. the worst that can happen to donald trump in his senate trial is that he would not be allowed to run for president again, which he probably wouldn't do anyway. the worst that can happen to him if fawny willis proves a case against him in georgia is prison time. 74-year-old donald trump is going to spend most of the rest of his life as a defendant in civil cases and possibly in criminal cases. we will bring you the latest on the criminal investigation of donald trump in georgia at the end of this hour. and we begin tonight with the senate trial, where it all finally got said in one place at one time. we finally heard a full presentation of everything donald trump did that led to the violent invasion of the capitol. house manager eric swalwell guided us through the weeks of repeated incitement by donald trump. >> on december 19t

msnbc's cory kauffman is in georgia for us. there's a newly elected district attorney behind this. >> reporter: yeah, it's the fulton county district attorney, fanny willis. this is the second investigation regarding that phone call. she said she feels her office is uniquely positioned to investigate this. her office was not involved so she wouldn't be a witness to her own investigation unlike brad raffensperger's office who was involved in the phone call. this second investigation has voters here in georgia looking toward what will happen after yesterday's vote of the they say even though they are disappointed in yesterday's vote, they weren't surprised in the outcome. they feel that even though it was the most bipartisan vote in history when it comes to impeachment, it still felt like the proceedings went along party lines and they do still feel that trump controls the republican party. listen to what they had to tell me yesterday. >> yes, i actually think that a lot of the republican people that voted with trump don't actual

i know on the streets of georgia as thousands protest against the arrest of a prominent opposition politician. outrage in condemnation after malaysia deports more than a 1000 a 1000000 more nationals despite a court order against it. all of that to come but we're going to start in the u.s. where we're about to get an update on the car accident involving american golfer tiger woods he's been undergoing surgery following the incident near los angeles now the sheriff's office it says the crash was not life threatening but we do know the 15 time major champion has multiple leg injuries police say his car rolled over and firefighters had to cut into the vehicle to free him he is believed to have been the sole occupant in the single vehicle crash while woods hasn't played professional golf since december before recovering from a 5th back surgery that press conference has just started let's hear what they have to say. in to this press conference to discuss a traffic collision which occurred this morning valving eldrick tiger woods joining sure if you know about it let me to station captain james pow

satisfied the results there to the white house he made that infamous call to the secretary of state of georgia asking him to find just enough votes so he can win this state they will talk about the speeches he made particularly those after the election where he talked about fighting like hell to save the country they will talk about how he flagged up january the 6th as a big deal that people should come it will be a day of history because according to the impeachment managers the new this was his last chance because that is when the senate would meet along with the house of representatives to certify the electoral college votes they have pointed to the fact that while there was a more making their way to the hill he was tweeting in opposition to mike pence his own vice president they made the point very clearly that as the room the holes here in the senate they were chanting hang mike pence because they see of tweets that donald trump so it's all about laying the bricks of the case that they've got against donald trump. they've got 16 hours to do it we've had just 2 hours there is a lot more t

but what is her role in the georgia congressional georgia delegation. is she a player in the delegation right now? >> so, she just got sworn in to office on january 3rd. so i think it's a bit early to know what her role will be in the delegation. i will say that because she is a trump loyalist who trump has even given her his sign of approval. and she has shared a stage with him. georgia republicans have embraced her and the maga base has embraced her, therefore, other republicans in georgia's delegation they have stopped short of embracing her but they have avoided criticizing her and they have definitely kind of realized that well, they have decided they don't want to angerer the base and have so far taken a hands off approach to her. and that has allowed her to have a big voice, because she is the loudest voice and other voices are silent rate now in the georgia congressional d delegation. >> tia, thanks very much. >> thank you. >> coming up, two weekends of historic protests and thousands of people detained in russia. we will tell you why the demons

so what happens next in the state of georgia? georgia democrats are still in the minority in the state house and the senate. so, is there anything they can do to stop these changes? joining us now is democratic georgia state representative, ronds rhonda burno. representative, thank you for joining us. tell me the status of this. this is a remarkable and interesting matter, in that republicans, until this election, were all about early voting and absentee voting. they wrote that law into being. they -- they are the ones who passed these laws into being. >> thank you for having me tonight. yes. we did receive this bill, yesterday. and today, during our committee meeting, it was a hearing in which fellow georgians were able to talk to us about their concerns about hb-531. as we know, georgia has been a leader in providing voters more options to vote than most states. so, why would they undermine -- why would we undermine our own success? and as you said, it's basically because we did win those three elections. and so now, they want

and the eu have condemned to the arrest of a senior opposition here in georgia. it was taken into custody on tuesday morning, accused of seeking to violently overthrow parliament. we report from the capital. reporter: surrounding the headquarter of georgia's largest opposition party, police carried out a special operation to breach the building. opposition supporters resisted, but officers soon overwhelmed them, taking the leader of the united national movement into custody. last week, georgia's prime minister resigns, citing concerns about clamping down on the opposition. his successor, appointed on monday, was quick to take a hard-line position. >> i sincerely thank the entire police force for protecting the dignity of our state, the stability of our state, and once again reminding everyone that we are a state governed by the rule of law. reporter: he is accused of leading antigovernment protests that turned violent in the summer of 2019. but the opposition says, his arrest is politically motivated, an attack on democracy with western aspirations. using tactics

do they tell you that georgia has changed, or do these numbers just kind of reveal something about georgia politics that hadn't always been as apparent as it is now? >> i think the whole shows us georgia has changed that is in the process of changing but that poll is just a snapshot in time. and i think, you know, some of those democratic lawmakers and republican lawmakers, those favorability numbers can change with different circumstances at a different time. coronavirus relief is going to be really important, for example, senators ossoff and warnock because they campaigned heavily on additional rounds of stimulus checks. so, you know, those tides can turn. but it shows right now republicans are struggling in georgia. >> taking a look at these favorability ratings you see right now, you can see that the former president has a net favorability rating of minus 17 points. president biden is currently doing well as is stacey abrams and the newly elected senators jon ossoff and raphael warnock. governor kemp has a net favorability rating of negative 9. what is your sense of how both parties ar

i got a masters with a focus in public finance and i came to georgia in 2003 to teach at georgia state, the andrew young school of public policy. i have been very involved in the policy life of georgia ever since that time. >> how do you think being a teacher will help you in washington, d.c.? what traits do you bring to the table, having that background? rep. bourdeaux: it is very important to think about -- the thing about being a teacher is learning to listen to your students, to understand where they are in learning something you are trying to convey to them. one of the things i really believe in in public policy is sitting down and really having a dialogue with people in the community about what they need and how we work our way to a solution. a lot of my experience of that is grounded in learning how to teach. >> when did you decide to run for office, and why? rep. bourdeaux: i got into this race back in july of 2017. there were several pushes that got me into it. the first was the destruction of the affordable care act and the sense that our representatives had lost their line o

so many republicans in georgia used early voting. democrats outnumbered republicans in early voting for the first time. that means that republicans used early voting in every single election in georgia before january 5th. before november, republicans were the ones who voted by mail in georgia in larger numbers. republicans specifically exempted voter i.d. from mail-in ballots because they thought their numbers would vote more by mail-in. so everything they're talking about now is a direct response to the fact that democrats won in november and won in january and instead of trying to reach out to new constituencies, they're trying to suppress the new constitueies from voting in the future. >> there were hearings about this the other day where a lot of them, and even raffensperger who to a certain extent, right, to his credit sort of stood up against the big lie, there has been a lot of this yada, yada, yada, where a lot of people think there say lot of fraud, so we have to do something even though there was no fraud. they're still usi

you're our expert on georgia law. what does it mean to you that the secretary of state's office is now investigating this case? >> you know, i was glad to see them announce an investigation, but i've really got some concerns about the appearance of the investigation, and let me give you an example. one thing a prosecutor wants to do in any case is to sort of remove any taint of a conflict of interest. and so i'm not sure how wise it is for the secretary of state, who is a key and material witness in the case, to investigate it. if you just think about it like this. let's say you're in the first national bank and a bank robber comes in and he says, i need $11,780, and he goes by the bank manager's office, and he talks to him for an hour and threatens him, staying bad things are going to happen if you don't give me the $11,780 and he runs out of the bank. you certainly don't want the bank people and the employees at the bank investigating that. so there are other mechanisms under georgia law instead of -- such as referr

look at georgia. what i understand the secretary of state, who is really -- he's an enemy of the people, the secretary of state, and whether he's republican or not, this man, what he's done, like this character in georgia who's a disaster. >> let that sink in. a republican public servant doing his job, whose family had just received death threats and the president of the united states labeled him an enemy of the people. and that's why this is different, because this was not just one attack or one comment. this was attack after attack in the face of clear threats of violence. and on december 1st, another official gabriel sterling, a republican who voted for trump made this point and appealed directly to our president to stop his dangerous conduct. >> mr. president, it looks like you likely lost the state of georgia. we're investigating. there's always a possibility. you have the rights to go to the courts. what you don't have the ability to do and you need to step up and say this, stop inspiring people

trump is facing at least two investigations in georgia. including one, a source tells cnn, about the former president's phone call pressuring brad raffensberger to find votes to over turn his election loss. another by the fulton county district attorney's office, looking into trump's alleged efforts to influence the administration of the 2020 georgia general election. >> something occurred here within my jurisdiction that may be criminal and if that is the case, it needed to be investigated. >> reporter: and there are multiple criminal and civil probes in new york. investigating trump's properties and alleged insurance and tax fraud. this could be charged filed against trump in washington, d.c. [ crowd chanting ] federal prosecutors stressing that nothing is off the table. when asked if they were looking at trump's role in inciting violence during the capitol insurrection in january. >> i think there is grounds for further proceedings. both civil and criminal against former president trump. that phase of accountability moves to the courts.

georgia republicans are now trying to get rid of it. and georgia is test case. the republican secretary of state said over and over there was no fraud. the system worked. and instead of applauding that system and trying to make it easier to vote and expand voting access, they are trying to get rid of all the things that made the system work so well. simply because in this one election, it worked better for the other party than their party. even though georgia republicans wrote every aspect of the state's voting laws. >> you know, ari, then, what are the prospects of this bill? is it going to pass? >> well, there is divides within the republican party in georgia. obviously, these provisions are getting a lot of scrutiny. people are wondering where did the elimination of sunday voting come from? nobody was talking about that as a problem in the last election. and so i think the republican party is divided but i think this puts additional pressure on democrats in congress to pass the john lewis voting rights act, and to pass the for the people act. so that democrat

deputy campaign manager justin clark said there was no evidence of that in georgia and georgia could prove that the vote count was accurate. "mr. giuliani called mr. clark a liar according to people with direct knowledge of the exchange. mr. clark called mr. giuliani something much worse and with that the election law experts were sidelined in favor of the former new york city mayor, the man who was telling the president what he wanted to hear." what followed, says "the times" was 77 democracy bending days. the "times" reports donald trump was dissatisfied with attorney general william barr before the election because the attorney general resisted donald trump's, quote, "idea to end birthright citizenship in a legally dubious pre-election executive order." republican reaction varied from senate leader mitch mcconnell saying the president had a right to pursue his legal options but never saying anything like the election was stolen to house republican leader kevin mccarthy, saying on fox, "everyone who's listening, do not be quiet, do not be silent about this. we cannot allow this to

. >> one of the states trump targeted in his big lie was georgia, and you know georgia very well. republicans there are now pushing a bill that would restrict voting, eliminate sunday polling, which is, of course, a big factor. many african-americans go to the polls and they want to limit the use of drop boxes. i'm sure you are going to fight this. what are you going to do? >> well, let's be clear. this is the omni bus version of the house consolidation of voter suppression bills. there's actually more than 24 bills that have been introduced. i think the number now stands at 25 or 26, but the reality is that they've spent most of the legislative session trying to fix a problem that they almost uniformly said did not exist. the cheerleaders for this voter suppression activity are brad raffensperger, the secretary of state, and brian kemp, the governor, the two who were lauded by so many for their stalwart protection of the right to vote. i was always very clear that they weren't protecting the right to vote. they were protecting the system that they created, and now that that syste

in public demonstrations with a focus on public finance and i came to georgia in 2003 to teach at georgia state in policy studies and had been very involved in the policy life of georgia ever since that time. >> how do you think being a teacher will help you in washington d.c.? what traits do you bring to the table and having that background? >> it is very important and being a teacher learning to listen to your students and understand where they are in learning something that they are trying tou convey to them. one of the things i believe in and public policy is sitting down and really having it dialoguett with people in the community about what they need and how we work our way to a solution. a lot of my experience with that is grounded in learning how to teach. >> when you do decide to run for office and why? >> i got into this race in july of 2017 and there were several pushes that got me into it. the first was the destruction of the affordable care act and just the sense that our representatives had lost their line of sight for people of the seventh district of georgia. they are ther

donald trump was trying to commit election fraud in georgia and threatening the georgia attorney general not to get in his way. this "new york times" report seems to have added substantially to the criminal investigative leads that should be followed by the justice department and the state of georgia and other states. later in december, white house meetings became even more deranged with one participant saying it was really damn close to fistfights. a north carolina lawyer brought into the discussion by white house chief of staff mark meadows told donald trump that mike pence had the authority to decide which electoral votes could be counted on january 6th when congress met to accept the results of the electoral college. that, of course, was a legal lie. mike pence had no such authority. $255 million, that's how much money donald trump raised in those 77 days. donald trump raised $255 million for himself and the republican party, telling people the lie that the election was stolen and the money that they would give to donald trump would be used to overturn that election and keep donald t

the removal of the northern georgia district attorney and rudy giuliani's false claims before the georgia legislative committees, could we expect to see the accountability we didn't get in the u.s. senate come from the state of georgia? >> that would be poetic justice, and let me tell you why. black people certainly helped to seal the deal for joe biden and helped to seal the deal for a historic senate runoff, right? so it would be poetic justice for this black woman who is the lead prosecutor leading this investigation now to say not only did black people turn out in this election and we're going to protect their right to vote as you just talked about in the last segment with mondaire jones, around what is the cdc doing, the black caucus doing, the poetic justice everything john lewis fought and really lived all his life for which is to ensure the protect of black votes, for that woman to be in the position to make this call is tremendous, and i think absolutely where there's a black woman in charge and she's going to be responsible for the investigation and fact finding and she's alread

with me now is senator raphael warnock of the great state of georgia. senator, thank you so much for being here. let's talk about what you are going to be able to accomplish now that democrats finally have the majority. you're on agriculture, banking, commerce science and transportation, the joint economic committee and a committee on aging. what's your priority and what do you think you can get done quickly? >> well, thank you so much, joy. it's great to be here again with you. you know, as i stand here in the rotunda of the capitol, i can't help but think about the fact that it wasn't that long ago that i came to this very rotunda as an activist and i was arrested in an act of civil disobedience standing up for the most marginalized members of our society at that time. we were protesting the fact that we were passing a $2 trillion tax giveaway to the richest of the rich while taking resources away from the children's health care program, resources needed from folks who are living on the edge. and today i stand here having moved to being a legislator w

same with stacey abrams in georgia. the reason i think -- you tell me if i'm wrong -- they have to go backwards to lay the foundation is because the exact words of the president did not incite violence, nor did anybody ever know. now that we know people were plotting, scheming -- >> steeper -- >> sean: you go. >> can i say something quick? >> sean: you bet. >> new evidence makes you do that. the only reason they are trying to create a bizarre story line that trump was in on it with dan scavino because we now know after impeachment, done without a lawyer or hearing or without witnesses that the f.b.i. and the capitol hill police actually now understand this was preplanned. they were planning bombs the night before. so the whole story line that donald trump caused this by the speech has fallen apart good to the good law enforcement activity. what did nancy pelosi know and when did she know it? if it was widely known by the f.b.i. and the capitol hill police people were planning to come to washington before the 6th, to cre
