On her last show of the year, MSNBC host Jen Psaki called out Donald Trump supporters who are going into the new year — and the 2024 presidential election — attempting to downplay or “rewrite” what happened on Jan. 6 when mobs of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol and tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.

Sharing clips of lawmakers like Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Mitch McConnell (R-KY) earlier taking to the Senate floor to express their disgust about the day lawmakers had to flee for their lives, the former White house press secretary compared them to recent comments by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Vivek Ramaswamy, who recently called the insurrection an “inside job.”

Justice Gorsuch put on the spot by former prosecutor over Trump ballot eligibility

During an appearance on MSNBC on Sunday morning, former prosecutor Glenn Kirschner made a point of making Justice Neal Gorsuch the center of a discussion on whether the Supreme Court will rule that Donald Trump is eligible to be on the ballot in 2024 based upon what the 14th Amendment to the Constitution says about insurrection.

Speaking with host Michael Steele, Kirschner read from a previous ruling Gorsuch authored before he joined the nation's highest court.

"I think they [the Supreme Court] probably recognize that time is of the essence," he told the host. "This is something that has to be decided urgently as we move toward primary elections in the various states. I agree with Barb [McQuade] that the Supreme Court will inevitably take this up for review."

"Here's something fun to keep an eye out for, Michael," he added. "I think what we need to keep an eye out for is whether Justice Neil Gorsuch, agrees with Judge Neil Gorsuch with respect to how to resolve this issue. Frankly, my favorite part of the Supreme Court ruling in Colorado was when they quoted Judge Neil Gorsuch. About ten years ago he had to resolve this precise issue whether states can keep would-be candidates off their primary ballots because the candidate was disqualified under some provision of the constitution."

"Here's what Judge Neil Gorsuch wrote: A state's legitimate interest in protecting the integrity and practical functioning of the political process permits it, permits the state to exclude from the ballot candidates who are constitutionally prohibited from assuming office,'" Kirschner read before adding, "So, Judge Gorsuch is sort of 90 percent of the way there, already ruling that states have this authority. Let's see if Justice Gorsuch agrees with himself from ten years earlier."
