he used the actual word. the former ag says he's not aware of any discrepancies in the 2020 election. so i want you to listen what he told abc news chief washington correspondent jonathan karl. >> i had no motivate to suppress it but my suspicion all the way along was that there was nothing there. it was [ bleep ]. you could tell me all you want to that it could have been hacked or whatever. but it's a counting machine and we saved everything that was counted. so you just reconcile it. there's a pile right there. how many ballots? a thousand. now let's see who they're for. there's been no discrepancy reported anywhere that's looked at that. and i'm still not aware of any discrepancy. >> i mean, and that's it, thank you guys for joining us, good night. john avlon and elie honig, elie honig wrote "hatchet man: how bill barr broke the prosecutors' code and broke the justice department." elie, he said it. but you're not buying what barr is selling. why? >> here's a question i would have liked to ask bill barr if

take us inside. tell us what was happening. >> so, when i walked in, there was no people on the ground. there was a line of people. my appointment was at noon, but there was a line already -- there was, like, 15, 20 people already in line. so, i knew my appointment wasn't going to happen then. but as time went on more people started showing up. and it became evident that they were taking walk-ins and appointments. some of the people that were coming in were really sick. you could just see it. and because there were no chairs in the lobby at that time, these people had nowhere to sit. so, they're sitting down. but they were so sick -- the picture really doesn't do it justice because they were moaning. they were in a lot of pain. it really drove the point home as to how serious these people are. i mean, for all i know, these people could have been dying right there and then, you know what i mean? it's just because they were -- they were -- i mean, they were really, really sick. and i felt bad for them.

and then, at pick-up time, she'd come and pick us up. make us dinner. i mean, she was completely present. and everybody's so surprised to hear that because they see this -- this glitz and this glamour. and that was the jackie collins' persona. but the mother, at home, was completely different. >> well, and it's interesting, because she considered herself a feminist, and correct me if i'm wrong, but critics often dismissed her and her books. what did she teach you about a woman's place, in the world? >> well, like i say in the movie, her motto was, girls can do anything. and she saw, from a very early age, the double standard in her own household. also, in hollywood as she, you know, tried to be an actress early on, before she became an author. and she didn't like what she saw. she was so ahead of her time because she -- she knew there was something wrong with it. she didn't understand why women couldn't be as equal as men. and so, that's what came into her writing. that's what she wrote about. she wrote about these strong-female characters. and she taug

and that test is still in front of us. as you indicated, president biden said he was not going to be bound by that august 31 deadline if there are still american citizens who they have not yet gotten out. >> he said he'll extend the deadline to get out if american citizens still haven't been evacuated. what about all the afghans who helped u.s. forces, john, for so many years? >> that's a very good question, and if many of those are left behind and suffer adverse consequences from the taliban, that will be a stain, a mark of failure for the withdrawal, no question about it. the president was a little equivocal on whether or not he would embrace the afghan allies in the extension of that deadline, he sort of suggested he would but make it conditional. we'll have to see how quickly they can round up some of those people, they say they're processing 500 people an hour into the kabul airport but many of those are far from the airport who have to get to the airport. it's not clear that they can. the taliban said they would give

doctor, thank you for joining us. tennessee's top vaccine official and was fired this week for apparently doing her job and encouraging people to get vaccinated. you are there in nashville. what do the state's actions do to public health? >> they have been a big shock, don, of course. i'm a member of shelly's fan club. he was one of the best immunization program directors of any state in the country. she was straight down the middle of the road, nonpolitical, did things right, enormously diligent and very popular. she had the respect of all the providers out there. so this is a blow to the program. furthermore, the state health department under pressure from state legislatures has pulled in its effort to try to get children and adolescents vaccinated in preparation for school. there has been a great deficit in vaccinations of infants, children and adolescents because of the covid time when we weren't seeing doctors. we have to make that up now. we want to raise the rates once again. and of course we have covid vaccine

can you please tell us about the filibuster, how it's being used today. >> yeah. so the thing about the filibuster is it has a very sordid history. it came into existence primarily to support the existence of white supremacy. you showed the clip of jimmy stewart in "mr. smith goes to washington." that movie came out in 1939. during the entire jim crow era, the filibuster was being used almost exclusively to block civil rights billed. the only bills killed during that period were civil rights bills. and civil rights bills were actually ready to pass long before they started to pass in the 1960s. the nation was ready to support them. gallup found 72% of americans ready to support an anti-poll tax law that was ready to pass in the 1930s, and it was blocked by the filibuster. fast forward to today and the filibuster continues to support the forces of the status quo and entrenched power over progressive change and its use still disproportionately is over -- >> i mentioned earlier that you worked with harry reid -- as harry reid's deputy chief of staff when he was the d

you believe us now? this is what they did to us. they invaded us. but now that it happened at the capitol, it's, oh, my goodness. they need to go to jail. well, we told you they needed to go to jail here, and they didn't go to jail. charlottesville could have did the right thing and made such a big statement, and they didn't. charlottesville failed us, and then after charlottesville failed us, our president failed us. >> elle reeve joins me now. thank you so much. great reporting. even after charlottesville on january 6th, the threat from white supremacy is incredibly high. you heard from tenicia that she thinks the government didn't do enough. are people you're talking to worried we could see even more attacks like this in the future? >> reporter: yes, though not from these exact guys and not these exact ideas. but the sort of us versus them way of thinking can lead to violence very easily and spreads very quickly on the internet. so the guys in charlottesville, they liked nazis. the people on january 6th, they hate nazis, and they think democrats

in real terms, explain what does that mean for us? >> well, if you think back to the peak of the epidemic, beginning with the very first cases of covid, in the united states we had 100,000 cases a day, then 200,000 cases a day. then we inched towards 300,000. at that time we were watching 1,000, 2,000 deaths every day and the hospitals were overrun. it's highly likely that with omicron, we will see hundreds of thousands of cases a day. and of those, probably a little lesser percentage will be serious enough to go to the hospital. and hopefully a much lesser percentage now that we're vaccinated and many people have three doses will be sick enough to go on a ventilator or, god forbid, die. but the hospitals are still going to be overrun. the health care industry, the doctors and nurses who are already exhausted from alpha, beta, gamma, and delta are now going to have to face, in the middle of the holiday season, hospitals being overrun. we may get lucky. because this disease is starting so quickly and has such an exaggerated upward curv

treat the parents of these children as domestic terrorists, using our men in blue against us. your power hungry dictatorship has gotten out of control. this is no longer about our safety. it is about control. >> yeah. well, listen, you have been talking about how voices like this are able to win out against facts, and you see parallels to what we see with election denialism and the big lie. explain that to us. >> i think that these two stories that we're following this week are actually more related than at first blush. they're essentially about a vocal minority using violence or the threat of violence. listen to the language of the people who were talking about anti-vaccination. they're that close to violence as well as, you know, members or supporters of trump and members of the gop who also use violence and the threat of violence to give the perception that they are the majority or, at the very least, that this country is divided. so let me put some good news about what's going on. over 75% of eligible americans are now vaccinated. the mandates are working as you're seeing

what is making us so angry? >> well, look, i don't think there's, like, one explanation for, you know, that runs through every event. i think there are long-term factors, and then there is a very immediate kind of trigger and match. i think the long-term factors, don, is that we are living through the modern equivalent of the 1850s. i mean, we are in a cold war between the states between now red and blue america and the issue of whether the -- the -- the -- the disconnect and divergence in values and priorities between red and blue america is being crystallized in a way that it never has, before. um, the -- the pandemic has put everybody under a lot of pressure in their daily lives, and those are real factors. but i think the immediate trigger, the match that has kind of let -- you know, set all this ablaze is that donald trump legitimized violence and intimidation as a political tactic. other republicans have not pushed back against that. they are trying to normalize the january-6th insurrection. and he told hi

the whole time they were dealing with us, they felt no obligation or neglected to tell us they were seeking other accounts where barbara was clearly doing work for cnn and communicating on behalf of her job. >> you said there are others out there who didn't happen to just cnn. it has affected the "washington post." "the new york times." it's a scary thing to see given the first amendment. our jobs are protected under the first amendment. it's one of the things america stands for, freedom of press. where do we go from here? >> well, you know, home any we'll get together. we're going to get together with the attorney general and staff on monday in washington. it will be myself. our bureau chief along with my counter parts at the post and the times. the home is not just to figure out what happened but to see if there are more pragmatic solutions to prevent it from happening again so we're not just dependen on the good graces of what happened at that. that's not the way our government is supposed to work. it is supposed to have predictability and to anticipate what the law will be. >> it is sca
