Criminal conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election. A senior Law Enforcement official tells me former President Donald Trump is expected to turn himself in at the end of next week. Trumps surrender and arraignment are likely to look different from those in his previous three criminal cases. The Fulton County sheriff has suggested he wants to treat trump and the others similar to any other defendant. That could mean they would have mugshots taken and be fingerprinted. All of this will happen just a day or two after the first republican debate. We have a lot more to come on all that. Plus, we have a brandnew up date from the National Hurricane center on hurricane hillary. The storm could dump over a years worth of rain on the southwest, including the los angeles area. Stay tuned for that. Gentlemen, thanks for staying up late. Let me start with you, john. Trump is set to surrender for the fourth time late next week. This time, the world could get a mug shot of the former president. You wo
the ground. we talk to the pollster behind those numbers, jen sulzer. it could be a crisis averted for now. developing overnight, congressional leaders says they will pass a stopgap spending bill pushing government funding bills to march. jeremy raskin is demanding donald trump give back nearly 1 million dollars, from former governments, while he was president. we will ask him how far he will take that fight. grab your coffee, settle in, and welcome to the weekend. we are 36 hours away from the start of the iowa caucuses. i cannot believe it either. it is the first opportunity for republicans to vote for or against donald trump since he was charged with 91 felonies. not a normal election. the final iowa poll released late saturday night shows trump maintaining his dominant lead amongst the gop contenders. the nbc news des moines register shows 40% support among likely caucus voters. nikki haley is up 20%. ron desantis is at 16%. a one wildcard factor, the winter weather could
More than that. that just scratches the surface. some of the biggest spenders were saudi arabia, china, they spend this money at this hotel, his golf clubs, chairmen, as we discussed, when this first broke, he reminded me of the we all became experts during this time. this is a clear violation. that is part of the thing. the constitution says the president, or any federal official cannot accept a president which is an officer title, of any kind, or whatever, that is in the constitution, from a prince, a foreign government, without the consent of congress. donald trump came to congress zero times to asked to keep this money. if you look at the history from washington and, barack obama, no one did anything remotely like that. abraham lincoln got these two elephant tests that he loved from the king of silent during the civil war. he went to congress and said,
It reminded me how in 2021, the supreme court had the opportunity to take up to cases related to this. court watchers felt they passed on it because they wanted to get past trump. this is an important point in retrospect. i want you to talk about the cases that could be coming before this supreme court related to donald trump. through that lens, through that lens of a court that two years ago, they thought there would be an opportunity for them to not reckoned with it. it s a beautiful point. we went over the senate and the impeachment trial, second impeachment trial. i was the key to the team, a lot of republicans felt, we will pass this. we ll let someone else deal with donald trump. mcconnell caught up and explained he didn t vote to convict. not because donald trump isn t guilty. he was morally, ethically, factually responsible. the senate as not have jurisdiction to try a former president, which goes against two centuries of precedent. in any event, he let them off
On a technicality. then he said, we ll let the courts deal with it. there can be criminal prosecution later. i think some people in the supreme court might be thinking, let s kick this back over to congress, or the people. we ll let them deal with it. the 14th amendment says that nobody who swears an oath to support the constitution of the united states, that violates that oath by engaging an insurrection or rebellion, shall never be allowed to hold federal or state office again. unless the congress reverses that divestment of ability to serve by two thirds vote. it is very clear. if you are an original, as a textualist, if you want to go by the language of the constitution, it is clear. it is the supreme law of the land. the question is, what we follow that or not? i was a little despairing that the supreme court would take the responsibility seriously. until last week, when trump s lawyers went to the d.c. circuit on a different case and
