FRANCIS: The people are angry.

5
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:10,381
The Congress is in disarray,

6
00:00:10,594 --> 00:00:13,176
the Supreme Court is down a justice
and doomed to deadlock,

7
00:00:13,472 --> 00:00:16,259
and the executive branch is without a boss.

8
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,263
I need to tell you, there is a lot of pushback
on the Hill

9
00:00:20,354 --> 00:00:22,515
about the simultaneous vote
for president and VP.

10
00:00:22,814 --> 00:00:24,270
FRANCIS: You want what they all want.

11
00:00:24,858 --> 00:00:26,268
A better seat at the table.

12
00:00:26,693 --> 00:00:29,730
And that is something that I can give you.

13
00:00:30,113 --> 00:00:31,068
Aidan?

14
00:00:31,156 --> 00:00:33,317
AIDAN: (ON PHONE) You should’ve
gotten out when you had the chance.

15
00:00:33,408 --> 00:00:34,363
You think you're out?

16
00:00:34,451 --> 00:00:36,362
It's not just what he did with all the data.

17
00:00:36,453 --> 00:00:38,444
Aidan had access to everything.

18
00:00:39,373 --> 00:00:40,829
Do what you were supposed to do.

19
00:00:41,208 --> 00:00:44,075
Move the anti-filibuster measure
fonNard so the Senate can vote.

20
00:00:44,169 --> 00:00:46,205
-No.
-No?

DOUG: The vote is inconclusive.

22
00:00:48,423 --> 00:00:50,163
Neither you nor Conway to 26.

CONWAY: I don’t care what they say,

24
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:53,879
I'm fucking president of the United States.

MARK: No, you're not.

26
00:00:55,472 --> 00:00:57,178

Even if it only lasts for a couple of weeks.

00:01:19,705 --> 00:01:23,789

preserve, protect, and defend

-Liar.
-It's temporary. I'm only acting.

(INHALES SHARPLY) Oh.

00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:34,878
You have to now carry this

-Mmm-hmm. It's the law.

that Vice President Claire Unden/vood

was sworn in as acting president.

-Were you aware?

47
00:03:57,487 --> 00:03:58,647
Of course.

Do you have any comment?

REPORTER 2:
You think this vote will be the charm?

53
00:04:10,542 --> 00:04:13,158
CONWAY: The congress is no different
than the rest of the country.

54
00:04:13,253 --> 00:04:17,542
People are sick and tired
of all this confusion and chaos.

The public is not happy.

00:04:20,093 --> 00:04:21,674
If you become president,

57
00:04:21,762 --> 00:04:24,128
would Claire UndenNood remain
as vice president?

58
00:04:24,222 --> 00:04:26,679
Not if she wants what's best for the country.

59
00:04:26,767 --> 00:04:29,304

would you have a choice?

And Rasmussen changed his vote.

67
00:04:44,284 --> 00:04:46,320
Well, he's been waiting
a long time to pay me back.

68
00:04:46,411 --> 00:04:48,948
Creating a deadlock on Rhode Island
just gives him the spotlight.

00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:51,405
-He can be convinced.
-LEANN: Meeting's set for this afternoon.

70
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:53,707
Yes, but if we can't, we lose Rhode Island.

71
00:04:53,794 --> 00:04:56,206
He seems to be acting alone,
but that could change.

72
00:04:56,296 --> 00:05:00,209
We will make gains this weekend.
Shore things up by Monday's vote.

73
00:05:03,136 --> 00:05:07,049
Mr. President, it's possible we may
need to consider the other option.

74
00:05:07,140 --> 00:05:08,425
A rescheduled election.

75
00:05:08,517 --> 00:05:11,054
No, no. I'll get Rasmussen back in line,

76
00:05:11,144 --> 00:05:12,884
and turn some others along the way.

sit-downs for you and Madam President

All live feed communications
have ceased or been disconnected.

84
00:05:34,584 --> 00:05:37,075
However, we have been receiving
texts and e-mails

85
00:05:37,170 --> 00:05:39,786
from an American scientist stationed there,

86
00:05:39,881 --> 00:05:44,841
claiming that an unidentified
occupying military force has landed.

87
00:05:44,928 --> 00:05:47,169
You think the soldiers are Russian?

89
00:05:49,933 --> 00:05:52,470
They arrived via unmarked research vessels.

We reached out to Moscow but they're
denying any official involvement.

(SOFTLY) Surprise, surprise.

00:05:57,315 --> 00:05:59,351
CATHERINE: It's a brazen act of aggression.

93
00:05:59,442 --> 00:06:01,148
Well, it's a crime of opportunity.

94
00:06:01,236 --> 00:06:04,399
Petrov thinks the US government
has their eye off the ball.

95
00:06:04,489 --> 00:06:06,104
Well, it doesn't.

Cathy, what's the most recent
communication we've received?

97
00:06:09,369 --> 00:06:11,655
What I'm saying is,
this aggression in Antarctica,

98
00:06:11,746 --> 00:06:14,738
by powers unknown,
is a direct result of the uncertainty

99
00:06:14,833 --> 00:06:16,698
that our presidential situation has wrought.

100
00:06:16,793 --> 00:06:19,125
Congressman Watts,
since when is Antarctica a concern

101
00:06:19,212 --> 00:06:20,952
for the Congressional Black Caucus?

102
00:06:21,882 --> 00:06:24,123
I hope you're not implying that
the caucus shouldn't have a voice

103
00:06:24,217 --> 00:06:27,880
in international affairs?
I hope that's not what I'm hearing.

104
00:06:27,971 --> 00:06:29,336
Thank you, Randy.

105
00:06:30,348 --> 00:06:33,886
I've called a meeting tomorrow
for the Congressional Black Caucus

to discuss our positions,
both foreign and domestic,

107
00:06:37,188 --> 00:06:38,678
before Monday's presidential vote.

108
00:06:38,773 --> 00:06:40,855
Are you considering shifting
your support to Conway?

109
00:06:40,942 --> 00:06:42,773
Well, all I can say at this time,

110
00:06:42,861 --> 00:06:45,352
that the most important thing is unity...

111
00:06:45,447 --> 00:06:48,814
And the public's faith
in the institution of democracy.

112
00:06:48,909 --> 00:06:50,740

"Bellwether senior member" that.

00:22:46,282 --> 00:22:48,864
To be frank, they could be gone by Monday.

344
00:22:49,994 --> 00:22:52,155
That's not what I wish, of course.

345
00:22:52,246 --> 00:22:56,956
But know that you are working more
with me on this than with them.

346
00:23:09,179 --> 00:23:11,010
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

347
00:23:18,689 --> 00:23:20,020
Congressman Watts.

348
00:23:20,107 --> 00:23:22,393
Governor. We're so happy
you could join us today.

349
00:23:22,484 --> 00:23:25,601
As am I. The black community
deserves so much better

350
00:23:25,696 --> 00:23:27,106
than Frank UndenNood's failed policies.

351
00:23:27,197 --> 00:23:28,232
That we can agree on.

352
00:23:28,324 --> 00:23:30,030
I look foward to hearing
about your platform.

353
00:23:30,117 --> 00:23:31,106
-Shall we?
-Oh, no. I'm sorry.

354
00:23:31,201 --> 00:23:34,489
We have just a bit more private
caucus business to attend to first.

355
00:23:35,372 --> 00:23:36,361
Excuse me? (CHUCKLES)

356
00:23:36,457 --> 00:23:38,743
This is a meeting
of the Congressional Black Caucus.

357
00:23:38,834 --> 00:23:41,667
Well, I understand. That's why we're here.

358
00:23:41,754 --> 00:23:45,121
I was told 9:00, and it's already been an hour.

359
00:23:45,215 --> 00:23:46,295
You should've been told 10:00,

360
00:23:46,383 --> 00:23:49,466
and you will get your opportunity
to address us.

361
00:23:50,763 --> 00:23:51,843
I appreciate your patience.

362
00:23:52,014 --> 00:23:53,094
(SIGHS)

363
00:23:58,187 --> 00:23:59,347
(DOOR CLOSES)

364
00:24:01,941 --> 00:24:03,647
I'm not gonna beg.

365
00:24:03,734 --> 00:24:05,895
No, you're gonna smile.

366
00:24:10,866 --> 00:24:12,481
The Muhammed Kalabi
they arrested in Tennessee

367
00:24:12,576 --> 00:24:14,282
is not the Kalabi connected to ICC.

368
00:24:14,370 --> 00:24:16,486
Can you prove it wasn'tjust
a bureaucratic mix-up?

369
00:24:16,580 --> 00:24:17,615
Not yet.

370
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:22,408
What else?

371
00:24:22,503 --> 00:24:25,961
Uh, final voter suppression lawsuit
was kicked back to the lower court,

372
00:24:26,048 --> 00:24:27,538
SCOTUS deadlock is feeding the chaos.

373
00:24:27,633 --> 00:24:29,214
Do you read the paper, Sean?

374
00:24:29,885 --> 00:24:32,217
Billy got a byline on that three days ago.

375
00:24:34,223 --> 00:24:35,429
Declaration of war?

376
00:24:35,516 --> 00:24:37,928
UndenNood was so evangelical
but hasn't mentioned it in weeks.

377
00:24:38,018 --> 00:24:40,760
All right, that's enough. That's enough.

378
00:24:46,193 --> 00:24:47,353
Lisa Williams.

379
00:24:49,697 --> 00:24:51,062
What about Lisa Williams?

380
00:24:52,074 --> 00:24:53,189
I saw you talking.

381
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:56,070
I thought she might be a lead
worth pursuing.

382
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:57,150
She's not.

383
00:24:57,246 --> 00:24:59,032
She's using what she read in the paper

384
00:24:59,123 --> 00:25:00,613
to get attention or a little cash.

385
00:25:00,708 --> 00:25:01,743
I did some digging.

386
00:25:01,834 --> 00:25:05,543
She and Rachel Posner both went
to a church called the Fellowship.

387
00:25:05,629 --> 00:25:07,415
-Rache| disappeared...
-Stop.

388
00:25:07,506 --> 00:25:09,542
No more conspiracy theories
about dead girls.

389
00:25:09,633 --> 00:25:10,998
But people love stories about dead girls.

390
00:25:11,093 --> 00:25:15,336
The next House vote
is the day after tomorrow.

391
00:25:15,973 --> 00:25:21,218
The natives are restless, outraged,
just plain scared, actually.

392
00:25:21,311 --> 00:25:25,099
They want to wake up in the America
that they fell asleep in.

393
00:25:31,572 --> 00:25:34,029
Dig deeper on the Kalabi lead.

394
00:25:34,116 --> 00:25:36,402
See if you can connect UndenNood to it.

395
00:25:48,672 --> 00:25:52,460
SO, this is the James S. Brady
press briefing room.

396
00:25:54,261 --> 00:25:57,719
And under ourfeet is
actually a swimming pool.

397
00:25:57,806 --> 00:25:59,592
It was built by the March of Dimes

398
00:25:59,683 --> 00:26:01,719
for President Franklin Roosevelt,
who had polio.

399
00:26:01,810 --> 00:26:05,143
And this pool was really
the only way for him to exercise.

400
00:26:05,230 --> 00:26:06,686
It was an open secret

401
00:26:06,774 --> 00:26:09,106
that the president used
a wheelchair most of the time.

402
00:26:10,110 --> 00:26:11,896
Which is why the White House was one

403
00:26:11,987 --> 00:26:15,571
of the first wheelchair-accessible
government buildings.

404
00:26:15,657 --> 00:26:17,067
But everyone pretended he could walk?

405
00:26:17,159 --> 00:26:18,239
Yes.

406
00:26:19,203 --> 00:26:21,239
-That's a bit of grace.
-Yeah.

407
00:26:21,830 --> 00:26:23,195
A thing not spoken?

408
00:26:23,290 --> 00:26:26,782
Yeah, this building literally changed
because of his disability.

409
00:26:26,877 --> 00:26:30,335
But people just respected him,
respected his, uh...

410
00:26:30,422 --> 00:26:31,537
Right.

411
00:26:31,632 --> 00:26:36,001
(STUTTERS) That office used to carry
so much weight, so much, uh, respect.

412
00:26:36,095 --> 00:26:37,960
You don't think it does any more?

413
00:26:38,055 --> 00:26:40,717
NO, oh, no, no!
I'm not saying that. (STUTTERS)

414
00:26:40,808 --> 00:26:41,797
(AUDIENCE CHUCKLING)

415
00:26:41,892 --> 00:26:45,055
I was giving you a hard time.
I know what you meant.

416
00:26:48,065 --> 00:26:51,182
Anyway, sorry,
didn't mean to hijack the tour.

417
00:26:54,071 --> 00:26:55,811
Moving on... (CHUCKLES)

418
00:27:04,456 --> 00:27:07,072
Gentlemen, we're ready for you now.

419
00:27:13,340 --> 00:27:15,331
I could come here today and talk

420
00:27:15,425 --> 00:27:18,542
about federal sentencing disparities
between crack and cocaine,

421
00:27:18,637 --> 00:27:20,719
which obviously are racially motivated.

422
00:27:20,806 --> 00:27:23,843
I'm sorry, but are you asserting
that the crack epidemic

423
00:27:23,934 --> 00:27:25,424
is exclusive to the black community?

424
00:27:25,519 --> 00:27:27,259
No, not at all.

425
00:27:27,354 --> 00:27:30,938
But I think it's fair to say
that sentencing discrepancies

426
00:27:31,024 --> 00:27:34,312
have disproportionately
affected minority populations.

427
00:27:34,403 --> 00:27:35,813
We're not one-issue voters.

428
00:27:36,405 --> 00:27:38,145
Of course not. That's what I'm getting at.

429
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,606
The whole point of today's meeting
is to broaden our platform.

430
00:27:40,701 --> 00:27:42,862
Republicans are always dwelling
on crime, Governor.

431
00:27:42,953 --> 00:27:44,659
Well, I'm here to have a dialogue.

432
00:27:44,746 --> 00:27:46,327
We expected you
to come in here with a plan.

433
00:27:46,415 --> 00:27:48,406
And I do have a plan.

434
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:51,617
Concentrating on a few pieces
of onerous legislation is not a plan.

435
00:27:51,712 --> 00:27:53,794
-Let's be clear...
-That kind of talk we've heard before.

436
00:27:53,881 --> 00:27:54,996
I'm a Republican.

437
00:27:55,090 --> 00:27:57,081
-Oh, here we go.
-CONWAY: You're not listening.

438
00:27:57,176 --> 00:28:00,509
Look, I want to help you help yourselves.

439
00:28:00,596 --> 00:28:02,302
(ALL MURMURING)

440
00:28:02,681 --> 00:28:03,921
(CHUCKLES)

441
00:28:06,226 --> 00:28:07,591
WOMAN: Unbelievable.

442
00:28:07,686 --> 00:28:09,927
CONWAY: That's my platform.

443
00:28:10,022 --> 00:28:13,310
Well, I've heard enough.

444
00:28:16,445 --> 00:28:20,484
SO, does anyone else have
any questions for the governor?

445
00:28:20,574 --> 00:28:22,530
CONWAY: Well, I have a question.

446
00:28:24,203 --> 00:28:26,660
What has Francis UndenNood
ever done for you?

447
00:28:29,124 --> 00:28:33,458
This little charade this morning... (SCOFFS)

448
00:28:34,087 --> 00:28:36,920
-Well done. Quite an act.
-WiII.

449
00:28:37,049 --> 00:28:38,459
-Governor.
-CONWAY: (CHUCKLES) No, but really.

450
00:28:38,717 --> 00:28:41,049
See, you may have differences with me...

451
00:28:42,387 --> 00:28:45,254
You may have genuine differences with me.

452
00:28:45,349 --> 00:28:48,011
But see, that's the operative word,
"genuine."

453
00:28:49,102 --> 00:28:52,265
Can someone here please explain to me
why you all are still loyal

454
00:28:52,356 --> 00:28:54,096
to Francis Undenrvood and the Democrats?

455
00:28:58,403 --> 00:29:02,021
One of these days
the members of this room will realize

456
00:29:02,115 --> 00:29:05,152
how much you actually
prop up the status quo.

457
00:29:06,995 --> 00:29:08,405
And how's that working for you?

458
00:29:08,497 --> 00:29:10,112
Will, why don't we thank

459
00:29:10,207 --> 00:29:12,072
the gentlemen and women for their time?

460
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,090
You've made a mistake.

461
00:29:34,314 --> 00:29:35,679
What we're proposing

462
00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:39,517
is a new election in the two states
that weren't able to provide

463
00:29:39,611 --> 00:29:41,192
valid electors by the safe harbor date.

464
00:29:41,321 --> 00:29:43,607
-Can we even do this?
-Is that even constitutional?

465
00:29:43,699 --> 00:29:45,655
Hold on. Hold on, everyone!

466
00:29:46,368 --> 00:29:49,531
I'd like to know where does
the attorney general stand on this?

467
00:29:49,621 --> 00:29:51,532
CLAIRE: Looking into it, but on board.

468
00:29:51,665 --> 00:29:55,123
FRANCIS: Bob, there's no precedent here.
There's no playbook.

469
00:29:55,711 --> 00:29:58,043
We can look to the Constitution
for inspiration,

470
00:29:58,171 --> 00:30:00,036
but not for instruction.

471
00:30:00,173 --> 00:30:02,710
Thursday's vote showed the
Democrats are coming to their senses.

472
00:30:02,801 --> 00:30:06,714
We lost one vote, Jordan.
We can go back and forth like this forever.

473
00:30:06,805 --> 00:30:09,888
As one of the few Republicans in the room,
it needs to be said.

474
00:30:09,975 --> 00:30:13,559
The stability of our country is more
important than the presidency.

475
00:30:13,687 --> 00:30:16,895
Not if people believe the president
is being chosen behind closed doors.

476
00:30:16,982 --> 00:30:20,224
A process that is laid out
in the Constitution.

477
00:30:20,319 --> 00:30:23,402
The same process that can keep us
gridlocked for the next two years.

478
00:30:23,530 --> 00:30:26,067
SADOWSKY:
The House should and will decide.

479
00:30:26,199 --> 00:30:28,235
Delaware has one congressman.

480
00:30:28,869 --> 00:30:32,077
How will that play in Austin
when your opponent in two years

481
00:30:32,164 --> 00:30:34,655
tells voters that you allowed
a state like Delaware

482
00:30:34,750 --> 00:30:36,240
to have the same influence as Texas?

483
00:30:37,085 --> 00:30:41,249
A lot of you incumbents will be
in danger of losing your seats.

484
00:30:42,215 --> 00:30:43,625
(MURMURING)

485
00:30:45,427 --> 00:30:47,088
And there it is.

486
00:30:47,220 --> 00:30:49,427
Look. Look at them.

487
00:30:50,390 --> 00:30:53,598
That is the look of contemplating loss.

488
00:30:55,020 --> 00:30:56,260
Loss”.

489
00:30:58,065 --> 00:31:02,525
The only constituent that anyone
in this room really listens to.

490
00:31:02,611 --> 00:31:05,444
I, for one, would like to hear how
the president feels about all this?

491
00:31:05,572 --> 00:31:07,108
-Well, I've made my...
-I think we could...

492
00:31:07,949 --> 00:31:11,112
SADOWSKY: NO, Mr. President.
You haven't spoken much here.

493
00:31:11,244 --> 00:31:14,361
We believe in one person, one vote.

494
00:31:14,456 --> 00:31:17,368
If we take that away,
then what is this country?

495
00:31:19,044 --> 00:31:20,375
Isn't that right, Mr. President?

496
00:31:20,462 --> 00:31:22,703
Absolutely, Madam President.

497
00:31:24,674 --> 00:31:26,665
(PANTING)

498
00:31:29,429 --> 00:31:31,966
Oh, wait, hold it.
Let me just move down a bit.

499
00:31:32,099 --> 00:31:34,215
I keep slipping off the podium.

500
00:31:34,309 --> 00:31:35,640
-You got me.
-Is that better?

501
00:31:35,727 --> 00:31:37,137
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

502
00:31:37,270 --> 00:31:38,635
(BOTH PANTING, GRUNTING)

503
00:31:41,817 --> 00:31:44,058
So the Lincoln...

504
00:31:44,152 --> 00:31:46,985
-That was actually his office?
-Can we not?

505
00:31:47,072 --> 00:31:49,154
-Can you... Can you move me up a bit?
-Yeah.

506
00:31:49,241 --> 00:31:50,572
(CHUCKLES)

507
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:51,985
(GRUNTS) Okay.

508
00:31:52,202 --> 00:31:53,988
(BOTH PANTING, GRUNTING)

509
00:32:04,089 --> 00:32:06,751
-How'd it go?
-We'll see.

510
00:32:06,842 --> 00:32:09,504
I need you to look over
the Antarctica statement again.

511
00:32:09,636 --> 00:32:11,092
Whatever you need.

512
00:32:11,179 --> 00:32:12,464
-Walk with me?
-Mmm.

513
00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:16,681

-Why?

He cannot be on the outside looking in.

00:32:34,202 --> 00:32:35,442
He'll win.

519
00:32:35,537 --> 00:32:39,621
-You actually believe that?
-Sure. Why not?

520
00:32:44,212 --> 00:32:47,454

I used to fly something a lot bigger,
a lot more power,

540

but it was so weighed down
with all the weaponry,

541
00:34:50,797 --> 00:34:52,753
it was like flying a tank.

And then it became more than that.

591
00:37:55,148 --> 00:37:56,854

she told me about this guy

from across the street sometimes.

is inhabiting the same world as you.

them while they're doing it,

What were you doing there?

673
00:42:27,462 --> 00:42:30,829
I asked Seth Grayson about Lisa Williams.

674
00:42:30,965 --> 00:42:34,082
Why the hell did you think that
was an appropriate thing to do?

675
00:42:34,177 --> 00:42:36,088
Didn't I tell you to drop this lead?

676
00:42:38,139 --> 00:42:40,380
Nobody's on it because she's a junkie.

677
00:42:40,475 --> 00:42:43,683
And everything she said to me is
in the Lucas Goodwin manifesto,

678
00:42:43,811 --> 00:42:45,517
which has been picked apart
by every message board

679
00:42:45,646 --> 00:42:47,932
and conspiracy theorist on the Internet.

680
00:42:48,024 --> 00:42:51,016
At first, Grayson said
her name didn't ring a bell,

681
00:42:51,152 --> 00:42:52,483
but then he called me out of the blue

682
00:42:52,612 --> 00:42:54,318
and asked me if we were still looking into it.

683
00:42:54,447 --> 00:42:55,687
So I followed up.
