salaries. question number eight, is the border on the verge of busting? after weeks of record migrant encounters, seems something s got to give. but tonight we begin where we started with trump s viability to be in the oval office again. the former president just a short time ago appealing maine s decision to keep him off the ballot. he s citing the 14th amendment and it s a first time the secretary of state made that call, just a couple of weeks after colorado s judges did exactly the same thing, now, trump is likely to appeal colorado s ruling as well, which would kick that straight over to the supreme court. joining me now is james schultz, a former trump white house counsel, so, jim, what is next now that trump has decided to appeal maine s decision to keep him off the primary ballot? so, it goes to the maine superior court, january 17th, i believe, is the date that it s heard. there will be three dates, three days after that time frame on that decision to appeal it to the maine
cash. and all of this kind of adds up to, you know, very serious allegations, very serious jeopardy if the allegations are proven true, for both menendez and his wife. i do believe that that, you know, this case will move along fairly quickly at this point. they are going to have to exchange discovery, it s going to take some time to do that. but i do think this is something that s going to move along. and jim schultz, thank you very much for joining us. thank you. and a surprising move tonight for senator bernie sanders, he s calling on congress now to end u.s. funding to israel over its war against hamas. sanders saying, while we recognize that hamas s bar baric terrorist attack began this war we must also recognize that israel s military response has been grossly immoral and violation of international law. results have been catastrophic.
