and jill taylor? vern holbrook's former daughter-in-law was set free, after spending about a year in the county jail. charges of first degree murder were dismissed without prejudice, meaning prosecutors do have the option of refiling at some in the future. but at this point, jill has never convicted of any crime in connection to vern's death. >> if it wasn't for jill putting it all together, helping daniel put the pieces together, this may not have happened. >> i think that's, uh, criminal. it's y'know, shouldn't have happened. she, in my opinion, definitely got away with murder. >> and when you walk out of this interview, she might be standing on the street. >> yeah. y'know never know. it crosses my mind. >> reporter: we wanted to talk to jill taylor. and it turned out, she wanted to talk with us to tell us a story of betrayal. but in her telling, she's the one who was betrayed. when we sat down with jill, she'd been out of jail for about three months, claiming she was caught in a web of daniel blizz

jill biden gets into the white house, and jill's decorations in my humble opinion do not stand up. but she is getting praise. it's not fair, raymond. raymond: i don't think it's fair to pit first ladies against each other. all they do is bring a designer in. the truth is the christmas decorations don't change all that much. the only thing that really changes is the entryway downstairs. they said melania looked like she created the shining. that's wrong. my only tiny bit of criticism is jill biden claims she was inspired by the people she met on the campaign trail and that animated her decorations this year. if that were true she would have little union bosses. she would have a couple of people who cleaned the basement her husband campaigned in, and a few bumper cars. that what slowed up at his rally. he had like 12 volkswagens. jesse: you accused me of being the don king of the christmas decor war. this home alone home. you and i watched the movie 50 times because i have kids. now you can rent this house. how much can you rent the home alone house for? >> it's a thousand bucs or so

jill, i want to start with you. listen to what roger stone said as he was coming out of his deposition on friday. take a listen. >> i did invoke my fifth amendment rights to every question, not because i have done anything wrong, but because i am fully aware of the house democrats' long history of fabricating perjury charges on the basis of comments that are innocuous, immaterial, or irrelevant. >> jill, any surprises here? >> it's surprising that he would admit that his claim of the fifth amendment is spurious, because if he did nothing wrong, then he has no fifth amendment privilege against self-incrimination. that's what the fifth amendment is, and there he was admitting in public i have nothing to worry about in terms of self-incrimination because i didn't do anything wrong. and of course his accusation against the committee is also absurd. so i think it was a silly thing for him to have said. >> so malcolm, i hear your chuckling. feel free to weigh in on that, but i want to ask, i saw this and thought of you, t

jill, you have had a chance to read this 52-page report. what do you make of the committee's legal rationale for holding meadows in criminal contempt? >> it is very strong, alicia. and that's, of course, i have perused it for oh, just the few minutes that it's been available, but it is clear that there's no executive privilege, that this is a delay tactic on the part of meadows. that he knows for the than this. that the court ruling from the court of appeals about the january 6th documents only strengthens the argument that the committee has the right to do this and has a need for the information. mark meadows a key figure -- he was with the president on and before january 6th. he knows what the president knows and when he knew it. he knows whether he worked with the committee, the january 6th organizers. there are so many things that only he can tell. and if congress is going to have any oversight role and any role in preventing a future occurrence of an assault on our democracy, they need this information in order to craft legislation. so

jill, what is the strategy here? >> let me just say that in the watergate case, we went from final subpoena for 64 tapes for trial, our second subpoena, to supreme court decision in three months. there's no reason it should take longer. this case is under way. it could be decided long before march. the timing here is crucial because unless the documents are turned over, i would say way before the summer recess, it will be useless. by the time you get to midterm elections and risk that congress could change hands and the republicans would shut this down, americans will never know the truth of what happened, who planned it, who funded it, what did the president know and when did he he know it, going back to another watergate case. we have to have expedition. if there's an argument at the supreme court, it can be done immediately. look how fast they're taking on cases. they took on an abortion case quickly, the vaccine mandate case. it will be argued january 7th, weeks away. no reason this couldn't be argued in weeks if

congratulations. [ applause ] i can see jill pretty soon jill's going to be sitting, going -- [ laughter ] but i'm really excited about this group. to the five honorees and your families tonight, thank you. as a group in your own ways you brought people together. you've made us laugh, you've made us cry, you've made us sing, you've made us dance. and generations of families have shared the love of your work. and our nation is stronger, more dynamic, and more vibrant because of you. you know, i won't go into it, but as i've been in and out of afghanistan and iraq over 27 times, i think, and going to these war zones, be up in the conar valley, and you'd hear our music being played for our service members, for real. the dining halls. there's something. and that's something to remember today. this is for this pandemic of profound loss and pain as we move forward toward repair and renewal, i would argue it's more important. the search for greater meaning in our lives and the lives of the nation we've seen the power of art in every form to heal, to comfort and recover. and as part of a great t

jill, i'm curious what you think of all of the above there. as well as the merrick garland question, because on paper, doj and prosecutors will always say, they just look at the case and make a decision. but michelle raises an incisive counterpoint to that, as she often does, which is yeah, but if they're both defying but meadows has found this way to position himself differently, and he was chief of staff, the most powerful appointed job in the white house, the type of person merrick garland has been professionally would suggest that he would have more pause about that than indicting bannon. >> i think ultimately both are equally culpable. i think that meadows has a better claim for executive privilege because he actually worked in the white house. but the privilege falls when it's not related to the job of the president. and i don't think there's anyone who will argue with a straight face that planning a coup, planning to undermine congress from doing its duty as required by law is part of the president's job. so if the conversations that we

so it was the right thing to do. >> renee, your view. >> i agree with jill. i mean, initially the feeling is, you know, why is biden doing this? why is biden impeding the investigation. but i'm not sure that's exactly what he's doing. and i do think that it's important to show that there are things that are going to be protected, but these aren't things that are necessarily germane to this investigation. >> jill, something that david frum has pointed out is that we want a legal resolution for something that requires a political solution. are we asking too much for the january 6 committee or justice department and justice can't be done for the full awfulness of january 6 through legal means? >> no. i think first of all that the committee is looking at what laws it might need to pass to prevent a recurrence of this. what gaps are there in our existing laws that allow this to happen? whereas the department of justice role is to hold accountable those who violated existing laws. so there is no reason why they can't proceed simultaneously. and it is not going to a

jill, let me start with you, what were the big headlines to you? >> you know, i think the big headline is today right now it does not look as if there will be an invasion. however, obviously the united states and the allies in europe are on alert, but i would point out one thing that really, if vladimir putin were listening to that conference and his people certainly are, i would point out that vladimir putin goes into that wanting wider talks about the future of european security. and that really definitely involves the future of ukraine, and if you listen to what jake sullivan said, he said we can address larger strategic concerns if provided we are operating in a climate of deescalation, so i think what the white house really did, what biden did was to say, okay, we hear you. we see your troops. we know you're serious about this, and we're willing to talk about the things that really, you know, bother you. but you can't invade. and if you do, we are ready. and nordstream, we'll get into energy, but energy is crucial, and that quote, you know, if

>> i agree with jill. i mean, initially the feeling is, you know, why is biden doing this? why is biden impeding the investigation? but i'm not sure that's exactly what he's doing. and i do think that it's important to show that there are things that are going to be protected, but these aren't things that are necessarily germane to this investigation. >> jill, something that david frum has pointed out is that we want a legal resolution for something that requires a political solution. are we asking too much for the january 6th committee or justice department and justice can't be done for the full awfulness of january 6th through legal means? >> no. i think first of all that the committee is looking at what laws it might need to pass to prevent a recurrence of this. what gaps are there in our existing laws that allow this to happen? whereas the department of justice role is to hold accountable those who violated existing laws. so there is no reason why they can't proceed simultaneously. and it is not going to affect anything before the supreme court, which will always stay a

and to jill's point, it is important they do it quickly, and they have been moving quickly. i think the courts are on to what donald trump did when he was president in trying to win by delay. it only took the district court 23 days in this case from the time the case was filed to when they ruled. and it's only been 22 days since the appeal to hearing today. i expect it will be maybe a week to a decision. it's very clear they're moving quickly. i think that's important. >> jill, we've seen mark meadows in some form of cooperation with the january 6 committee. he could, though, in his testifying to the committee at certain points refuse to answer questions. he could use the fifth amendment for that. he could also make attempts to claim executive privilege in response to individual questions. and that could in itself lead to other legal battles. >> it could lead to delay. i don't think it will change the ultimate outcome. but i agree with what was said, which is that we have to wait until after the deposition to evaluate his actual level of cooperation. pardon me if i'm a littl

jill wine-banks, thank you very much for joining us tonight. i want to read one passage of the appeals court decision today just to show the audience how ridiculous the trump argument was in this case. for 24 years of the presidential records act operation, and across five different presidencies, presidents, including former president trump, have agreed that the disclosure decision of an incumbent president controls within the executive branch over the contrary claim of a former president. and so, jill, there is the court saying that, when donald trump was president he agreed completely with what joe biden is doing here. >> exactly. and it goes back even further than that. because during watergate, right after nixon left the presidency, there was a case known as gsa. president carter is the president. he gets to make the decision. and in this case the court was very clear that not only was trump acting poorly, but the biden acted in the best interest of the united states. and that's what the law is intended to protect his interest in the united

jill, i wanted to get your view of what we're hearing about the possibilities of criminal findings in these investigations beginning with wire fraud in soliciting money, what's turned out to be a few hundred million dollars after the election lying about the election. >> it makes total sense to me. i don't think congress had any idea this is where it would end up. they started out looking for what kind of laws do we need to pass to prevent ever again being confronted with the horror of january 6th. but in that investigation, they have come up with obvious crimes by the president, by his top aids and they can't ignore it. they cannot prosecute it. only the department of justice can. so it makes complete sense for them to send the evidence to the department of justice and say we think there is crimes here that you should investigate. during watergate, there was a two-way street. we had the senator irvin hearings and we learned a lot of evidence from the public witnesses that appeared before that committee. but we also had a grand jury and we had evidence that we then put together in wha

and to jill wine-banks's point. it is important to move quickly. and they have been moving quickly. i think what donald trump did, by trying to win by delay, it only took the district court 23 days, in this case, from the time the case was filed to when it was ruled. and it has only been 20 today since he appealed to the hearing today. i two more weeks before we hear to the decision. we >> jill wine-banks, we see mark meadows and some form of cooperation with the january six committee. he could though, in his testifying to the committee, at certain points, refused to answer questions. he could use the fifth amendment. he could also claim executive privilege in response to individual questions. and that could in itself lead to other legal battles. >> it could lead to delay. i don't think it will change the ultimate outcome. but i agree with what was said which is that we have to wait until after the deposition to evaluate his actual level of cooperation. pardon me if i am a little skeptical but i am glad he has turned over some documents and i am glad that he has agreed to testify be

thank you. >> okay. >> that was president biden and jill biden. you heard them both, thanking service members from around the world in bahrain, qatar, romania, colorado on this christmas day for their service, courage, sacrifice. you saw president biden leaning into his empathizer in chief role, apologizing to families saying i know what it is like to have the empty seat at the table during family moments and apologizing to families for the empty seat and emphasizing gratitude for the service members and their sacrifice. >>> we'll turn to covid and the pandemic and the omicron variant leading to cancellations when it comes to flights around the world. cnn's nadia romero and alison kosik are keeping a close eye on covid developments for us this christmas weekend. nadia, we begin with you. you're in atlanta. tell us what travelers need to know as hundreds of flights have been cancelled. >> reporter: luckily for them, most have an email or text message coming so they're able to figure out what the flight will be. if they have a cancellation or delay.

her firm is part of true blue, which trades under tbi jill, great to have you with us. we heard about the trucker shortage from even before the pandemic so what is the primary cause of it at this point and why is it so acute right now >> hi, melissa thanks for having us on. driver shortage has been a problem that has plagued the industry for many years. i've been in this industry for over 25 years and each year, it seems to be more difficult to find drivers obviously, the pandemic has exposed the problem even more as many drivers have taken early retirement and the truck driving schools closing during the pandemic caused 40% fewer drivers trained last year. so with the tight labor market and the increasing average age of truck drivers, it's no surprise that the driver shortage is predicted to continue to increase over the next decade. >> oh, i hadn't even thought about the driving schools closing as part of the reason. that's really interesting. jill, i'm wondering to get drivers back, even some of those newly retired ones back into the workforce, how much is pay going

[laughter] >> president biden: she says "joe, you're too emotional." >> smiled, laura. imagine if someone were giving emotional cues, stand up, laura, smile, look sad, laura. this is so bad for him. it looks like he's being coerced and told what to do what you saw the dead face. >> laura: there is a pattern older gentleman who do get quite emotional at odd moments. john boehner was -- john boehner would cry the second time he had to mow the lawn on a day. don't worry. raymond, i do not want you to worry about that. kamala harris is ready to assume the presidency. she was out doing some important work today at an electric car charging event in maryland. >> okay. >> that's it. >> okay. there we are. >> that's it. >> and there's no sound or fumes. >> i love how she'

we learn a lot about jill biden. i thought she would be protecting her husband and as a result the nation. she is not doing either. >> harris: that's a really interesting point that you make. because if you are not helping him, you are certainly setting him up for failure. >> that is correct. it's an interesting dynamic. we don't know her well. we think we know people because we see them on tv a lot. you see a portion of us and in that particular case we are learning more. we have learned more about kamala harris, we've learned more about jill biden. as a feminist and woman it is disappointing but it just means more women need to get out there who are better role models. >> harris: i will let you drop that mic and bring you back next time. >> this is great. >> harris: may or bill deblasio patting himself on the back saying new york is safer now than it was eight years ago. maybe he hasn't seen the spike in murders in his city or left his house and gone outside. and tornadoes devastating the american heartland. dozens
