good evening. this is america s late news. breaking tonight the u.s. supreme court has now decided to review the colorado decision banning former president trump from the state ballot. the court has also scheduled oral arguments for february 8 in what could be the high court s biggest political decision since bush v. gore 23 years ago. in the meantime president biden began his 2024 campaign push but instead of running on his own record it appears biden is choosing to villainize former president trump. even some democrats are saying biden is being hypocritical when it comes to democracy but first senior national correspondent dev is life in d.c. with what former president trump is is saying. a very interesting rally to watch. on the heels of joe biden s campaign launch, as you know, punctuated by ominous warnings of what a second trump presidency just might entail, former president obviously responding today. holding a pair of rallies ahead of the iowa caucuses. mr. tr
it is quite a scene down there. smoke and flames shooting into the sky right above. look at that explosion. there are now reports of several more explosions. crews were battling that fire for hours and is now said to be under control. one of the most vital in our nation. cb cotton is following this story. what more can you add? traffic brought to a standstill on one of the country s oldest and most traveled routes. telling fox 29 affiliate that a tanker truck caught fire under i-95 in northeast northeast philadelphia. causing the northbound overpass to collapse. now north and southbound lanes are closed in this area for about three-4 miles. emergency dispatchers were reportedly notified just before 630 this morning. firefighters arriving to the aftermath to assess the damage with portions of northbound lanes reduced to rubble. the fire was under control like you said about an hour later at 7:30 a.m. this morning u.s. secretary of transportation saying federal resources are
including a major meeting with secretary general of nato pushed to tomorrow after the president underwent unexpected dental surgery. and donald trump headed to miami this hour. what do expect inside the courtroom for his historic arraignment, and what to expect outside the federal courthouse with the city ramping up security and shutting down streets. our nbc news reporters are following all of the latest developments, and we begin right there in florida, nearly 24 hours away from the president s arraignment. nbc s gabe gutierrez is in dural where donald trump will be spending the night ahead of his court appearance. what are we expecting tonight? reporter: what we re expecting today in a short time is a small group of supporters that have gathered outside of the doral golf course to greet the former president as he goes in and out of the area. many supporters say they support him completely, that this has been a political witch hunt in their view, and we just spoke with
we know who we are. we just need a jolt to revive a greatness we are destined for. we are still american patriots and our faith still moves mountains. we just need to get going. we ve been dabbling in some dangerous things of late, squashing free speech or cancel culture, losing our sovereignty by overrun borders and tolerating a white house dedicated, redefining us and dirtying up the concept of patriotism. plus, there s a realignment of our system of law and order that s hardening the already violent criminals and putting enormous power in the hands of the most radical liberals we ve seen to date. it feels like the proverbial hour is midnight. even a sliver of light is hard to see. but take heart. you know what happens at midnight. the new day begins just when it may be like we are bending to the will of things that don t make any sense at one of our nation s darkest hours. that s exactly when our new beginning can be forged. and i can tell you this. never underestimate the
