He plays from this really old and tired playbook, right. Where he, there is no floor for him in terms of how low he will go and we should be prepared for that. We s
Welcome to The Beat, im ari melber. But we begin with Breaking News in politics. Former republican Vice President and Defense Secretary Dick cheney is backing Kamala Harris. That marks one of her most high Ranking Republican endorsements in this campaign probably the most iconic. Dick cheney is an Arch Conservative Hawk and a gop icon, a fixture running republican administrations as chief of Staff And War policy as Defense Sect and Vice President and during 9 11 and the wars in afghanistan and iraq. Those were stints that made him a Fire Brand Folk hero on the right and loathed by most prominent washington democrats. And indeed this news right now tonight would have been unheard ever 10 or 15 years ago and cheney is far from a never trumper. He endorsed Donald Trump in 2018. This also completes the Cheney Family unusual evolution and it did not come during the actual four years of trumps presidency, his governing priorities and his mistakes, it came over whether were a democracy or a C

jean carroll after trump lost to her in this previous case about defamation regarding sexual assault. now, donald trump s trip to court is a stark turn from his recent victory in new hampshire. that was just tuesday. this is not how any candidate in any party, in any point in history, it has ever wanted to follow up on a primary when. let alone try to get momentum while under oath. regarding such serious allegations of defamation. now, trump s time on the stand was deliberately brief. he answered a single question from his lawyer, the judge overseeing what would be allowed. the lawyer asked if trump stood by the past deposition that he gave, which denied the underlying sexual assault that is the issue in the defamation, and trump replied, simply, 100%, yes. the lawyer tried to then bulldoze on and get donald trump to say more about denying the actual allegations, the judge intervene and struck those answers from the record. and that, very briefly, shows how court is different
