Georgia Senate candidates Herschel Walker and Sen. Raphael Warnock squared off in a contentious debate for one of the most competitive contests in the country, days before in-person early voting begins. Republican Herschel Walker’s campaign has been rocked by allegations the former football star, who supports a national abortion ban without expectation, asked an ex-girlfriend to have the procedure twice and paid for it on the occasion she did. Georgia Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan recently wrote an op-ed for CNN titled “The GOP should never have bet on Herschel Walker.” He tells Anderson Cooper what he would have liked to hear the two candidates discuss. Plus, CNN has more exclusive never-before-seen video of how Congressional leaders on January 6 were frantically coordinating with then-Vice President Pence and Trump cabinet members to stop the rioters and finish certifying the election. All this footage was captured by Alexandra Pelosi, a documentary filmmaker and daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, while she was filming what she thought would be a peaceful transfer of power. Tonight’s video shows Pelosi talking to the Vice President about contingency plans for continuing the work of Congress. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe joins AC360 to discuss Pelosi’s leadership during one of the darkest days in American history.
