CNN
About this episode

In a fiery prime-time speech, President Biden says Trump & MAGA Republicans represent extremism that "threatens the very foundations of our republic". That, as Trump reveals in an interview he's financially supporting some of the Capitol riot defendants and would pardon them if he could. The panel discusses the stark differences between the two politicians, and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s call for Biden to apologize for his “Semi-fascism” remark about 'some' Republicans.

Plus, January 6 Committee member Rep. Zoe Lofgren joins CNN Tonight to discuss former House Speaker Newt Gingrich’s attempt to “arouse the country’s anger” over the 2020 election, how conservative activist Ginni Thomas pressed Wisconsin lawmakers to overturn Biden’s 2020 win, and the missing January 6 Secret Service texts. And, Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams Slams Governor Kemp over the closure of a critical Atlanta hospital.

Hosted by Victor Blackwell.
