Summary

El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser issued an emergency declaration Saturday night to address the increase in migrants crossing the southern border, citing the dangerous winter conditions and shelters lacking the capacity to meet the demand next week. A Tennessee man already facing charges in connection with the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol was arrested for allegedly planning to kill FBI agents. A majority of Twitter users voted “yes” in a poll posted by owner Elon Musk asking if he should step down as CEO of the social media company. The fate of President Joe Biden’s multibillion-dollar student debt relief plan could hinge on an obscure financial services company just outside of St. Louis.

0:00.0	Woo! It's up!
0:30.0	All right, one of the other turns, Jake, you're an inconspeん with you guys. The January
0:52.4	6th committee has made its recommendations that they are studying. Studying. Studying.
0:58.0	Okay, we will not be covering them. Their recommendation is Trump bad. It is totally irrelevant.
1:03.0	If you're watching any other form of media and they're telling you that it's relevant,
1:07.0	they're making it up. It's just total horse crap.
1:10.0	Okay, so keep in mind the January 6th committee does not have the ability to charge Trump themselves
1:17.0	with crimes. They are recommending to the DOJ, meaning Merrick Garland, that he'd be charged
1:23.0	with crimes related to January 6th. It would be stunning once Merrick Garland and the DOJ actually
1:30.0	pursues Donald Trump. If and when that happens, it won't. But if it does and we're wrong and
1:35.0	I would love to be wrong, we will of course cover it and give you all the details.
1:39.0	Besides which, the Department of Justice is supposed to do its job. It's not supposed to wait for a
1:43.0	recommendation from a committee in Congress. Like all of this is made up. And of course,
1:49.0	as usual, the people who run the play and that's made sure media is telling you it's so
1:55.0	important. Oh my God. They threw the book at him.
1:59.0	They threw a book of recommendations at him. Recommendations that actually have no force of law
2:05.0	and will have no effect whatsoever.
2:07.0	Look, and this is not an indictment on the January 6th committee. They did their job.
2:13.0	It's more a criticism, a harsh one toward Merrick Garland and the DOJ.
2:18.0	And the media.
2:19.0	And the media.
2:20.0	Yeah, because yeah, I agree. We covered January 6th committee hearings. They did a good job
