are going to impeach you, and it s happening very, very soon. on this vote the yeas are 214 and the nays are 216. the resolution is not adopted. you know, i have to say the season took an unexpected turn last night. willie, one of the more surprising but really good introductions to the season, who knew mike johnson would star as a happless speaker of the house who couldn t even get an impeachment through. all we re missing is the slow push in on his face. that was truly we have four hours, luckily, today to go through one of the most humiliating days in the house of representatives. they couldn t pass their own impeachment of mayorkas, couldn t get through an israel bill. they did find time to pass a resolution that says donald trump did not commit an insurrection around january 6th. want to make sure they protect him on that. they re getting ready to have a vote today, a procedural vote to turn away the senate immigration bill they ve been asking for for two gene
are decided before election day? plus, any minute now, president biden will be weighing in on the border bill, a last ditch effort to turn it into law. but, on the hill, is it already a lost cause? so we ll get to that, we start with the breaking news, the d.c. circuit court unanimously rejecting donald trump s claims of immunity from federal prosecution, declaring them to be contrary to the constitution and america s founding principles. this is a massive legal blow to the former president, in and of itself, but moves the d.c. election interference case closer to a trial, at least bombly. potentially. in the opinion, they said, we cannot accept forum president trump s claim that a president has unbounded authority to commit crimes that would neutralize the most fundamental check on executive power, the recognition and implementation of election results. and, in fact, they say, it would be a striking paradox if the president, who alone is vested with the constitutional du
6th. i think i have that date right. there have been 4,001 gun deaths. 4,001 in the first month and few days. i want to put the pictures back up of the four people who died at the hand of ethan crumbley. madison, justin, just 17. what do we owe those 4,001 people this year? those four oxford students, and everyone who dies at the hands of gun violence? we live in a society where we can t control everything that happens outside of our household. we expect and demand a lot of each other every day to protect and keep our communities safe. one of the things that s most important is to talk about it with each other and to insure if you have a firearm, safely store it. that means having the gun unloaded, locked and ammunition separate. that s one of the major things we can do. if all of us did that, we could change the trajectory of gun violence in this country. 76% of school shooters get their gun from a home. we would have families who have lost their children at school. let s
that s going to do it for me today. deadline: white house starts now. hi everyone. it s 4:00 in new york. i m ali velshi in for nicolle wallace. an incredibly important question looming over democracy, can presidents be held accountable for crimes committed in office. a unanimous ruling by the d.c. court of appeals rejected donald trump s claims of immunitity in the federal election case. the decision by the judges is a stinging rebuke of the ex-president in what has become a months long push to get the charges against him dismissed. in their ruling, the judges make the point that while donald trump is a former president of the united states, he is in the eyes of the law, just another criminal defendant. for the purposes of this criminal case, frp has become citizen trump with all the any executive immunity that may have protected him while he served as president no longer protects him in this prosecution. prosecuting presidents for things they did in office would have
