republicans are trying to attack voting and disenfranchise people. once again, mitch, please. mcconnell claims this is one party rewriting laws, he should be referring to what his party is doing on party line simple majority votes or through executive action. take the so-called free state of florida where chairman ron desantis is doing everything he can to prevent people from voting or to out right intimidate them if they try. his latest authoritarian idea is to create a literal personal police force to oversee state elections that would answer only to him. the job of the titled office of election crimes and security would be to investigate, detect, apprehend and arrest anyone for election laws with the power to monitor voters and even arrest them so does ron plan to have the secret police arrest trump voters since the heart of election fraud in florida seems
there s no bottom to trump s willingness to abuse his power. i think it s true and of course why wouldn t he? he hadn t been held accountable for anything so he keeps stretching those limits of executive power. i think a lot of people in congress are thinking about not only rewriting laws but maybe the constitution because i don t think congress ever imagined that somebody would test the guardrails like the president has, and he just keeps pushing it further and further. according to the reports even what rudy giuliani admitted last night, you heard that is still just egregious in itself. egregious for sure, but again is it the sort of thing going to bother trump supporters, i doubt it. biden s a front runner, democrats don t have the nominee yet, but no matter who it is, how they are going to fight this president, his campaign cacktics are really scorched earth tactics. i think with jujitsu.

doesn t care about the constitution. there will be presidents after him. if he he gets away with all this overreach. creating laws, rewriting laws, ignoring laws. it will be a occasional defeat for the country and for the rule of law. and i think that s the worst part of this. if this were a republican, he would be impeached now over all of these abuses. charles, thank you. nice to see you. pleasure to be here. and didn t benghazi keep teach the state department a lesson? new fears about security of u.s. embassies? that s next plus learning tonight iran drones out of air field in baghdad. air field in baghdad. all the latest in baghdad is when folks think about what they get from alaska, they think salmon and energy. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when w
