The last word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening, lawrence. If you asked me yesterday about impeachment, i would have said i dont know but i dont think so. But now after hearing adam schiff, chief prosecutor of donald trump in his impeachment trial minutes ago with you, its happening. Adam schiff is telling the world on your program this is really going to happen. Yes, thats exactly my impression as well. I came into the show thinking this is an option, i wonder how long theyll dither. It seems to me, my impression as well, this is going to happen. And the question that Mitch Mcconnell raises about needing unanimous consent to proceed before january 20th, i cant find any hole in that. So it may be that the house impeaches and there isnt a senate trial before donald trump leaves office, but professor lawrence tribe is going to explain why you can have impeachment of donald trump after hes left office and there is a value to doing that. This story, rachel, is taking turns unimaginable
Unanimous consent to proceed to this before january 20th, i cant find any hole in that. And so it may be that the house impeaches and there isnt a senate trial before donald trump leaves office, but professor Laurence Tribe is going to join us tonight and explain why you can have an impeachment trial of donald trump after hes left office and that there is a value to doing that. So this story, rachel, is taking turns that were unimaginable to me 48 hours ago. When you talk to him, lawrence, will you ask him a question for me . Writing it down. Its pretty simple, but as far as i understand it, the 2 3 vote to convict in the senate is just 2 3 of the number those present. If 20 senators wanted to just stay away, you could get a 2 3 vote to convict and ban him forever, you could do that with just the democrats. I think thats right if they didnt have a full deck of 100 senators sitting in the chamber, but i would love to check with someone like him. Well get you an answer for that. Off the

Housing. Opponents say discretionary review is necessary so that everyone affected by a project can be heard. How would you if the all reform the discretionary process . Mr. Davis, miss olague and miss selby. As a board president of booker t. Recently we had to seek permission from the board of supervisors for housing and community space. , as much as i would have liked that process to go quicker, as much as i would have liked to see less opposition from some of the neighbors. We had a lot of support from the neighbors as well. I think its really important that folks have the opportunity to air their concerns at city hall to, air their concerns at planning, to air their concerns in front of the board of supervisors and ultimatelis a community, we do need to decide and balance interests and mitigate impacts and at the end of the day the booker t. Project final designs are better than started because it did go through a review process. So i wouldnt try to limit discretionary review. I th
