The debate is going on right now on the house floor. Taking a look at ohare. Its not an actual vote for an impeachment. The vote instead will put representatives on the record on how the impeachment process will move forward. If the resolution is approved, it would allow the impeachment hearings and deposition transcripts to be made public. Again, we are listening in life. It is expected to narrowly pass on party lines. Five or 10 years from now people will ask each of us what we did in this moment. They will ask us what we did when confronted with this crisis. No due process now. Maybe some later but only if you feel like. Its not a standard that should ever be applied to any american and should not be applied here. To the president of united states. Some republicans say the process is unfair because they are being left out of the drafting of the resolution. House lawmakers are expected to hear testimony this morning from former National Security council aide tim morrison. He resigned from his post as the senior director on russian and European Affairs yesterday. Morrison was listening in on President Trumps phone call with the president of ukraine in july. Former National Security advisor john bolten has also been called to testify next week so he says he will not come forward without a subpoena first. A vacancy on San Franciscos ninth Circuit Court of appeals is an emotional but appeared President Trumps nominee cried yesterday when a Senate Committee asked him about an angry letter from the American Bar Association questioning if he would be fair to the lgbtq community. It is a fundamental belief of mine that all people are created in the image of god. They should all be treated with dignity and respect he is a Deputy Attorney general in the justice department. The Bar Association raised concerns about his judicial temperament and said he is not qualified for the judicial branch. Republicans say the Bar Association is a leftleaning organization that opposes conservative nominees. Another parent from Southern California has been sentenced in the College Admissions scandal. Jeffrey puzak was sentenced to two months in prison for paying 250,000 to get his son into usc as a fake volleyball recruiter. He is a former executive at the World Surf League which is the governing body for professional surfers and the 12th parent to be sentenced in the skiing. A south bay Charter School fighting to stay open after the school board voted not to renew its lease for the next school year. Cornerstone academy in san jose has 540 students and was founded in 2010 and serves kindergarten through eighth grade. Last week the school board voted 32 to deny the Charter Schools petition to renew its lease saying the school did not meet certain criteria and said there is an achievement gap for math test scores. However, leaders of the Charter School disagree with that. None of these statements are grounded in the law for whether a Charter School should be renewed or not renewed. Its as simple as that. The Charter School plans to appeal to the Santa Clara County board of education and if they lose their, they will then appear to the state board of education. The oakland School District is trying to make sure students enjoy a festive halloween. Many teachers and staff will come in costume today. Here are the photos from past halloween celebrations.
