And legal follower coming up. Welcome everybody, this is youre world. We begin with charlotte where trump is set to speak and just got a big endorsement. Reporter he did, he got a big endorsement from the fop, he is going to be here speaking to the fop annual meeting. And we are told by the campaign that those remarks were slated to begin about 445, so in your our charles, we are expecting the former president to take the podium here we dont know if he will route react or make the first on camera remarks about george my seans ruling to delay the sentencing and that hush money, so cold when he tried. But we will be here listening and watching and waiting to see if the former president indeed does remark about that, he did tell Brooke Sigman over the phone earlier today, a few words about this. He said the case was delayed because everybody realizes there was no case and i did Nothing Wrong, its a case that should have never been the case should be dead. Those were word from the presiden
Conservative northwestern law professor and also one of the cofounders of the Federalist Society claimed in an oped this latest to his fascist dick and its grounds for the president simmediate impeachment again. Its just very similar or at least that resuscitate a consistent theme that has been raised throughout the trump presidency. Also most notably by liberal critics. Of course he was impeached allegedly for violating the constitution at the time of his impeachment peter pelosi for example said if we allow one president , any president no matter who she or he may be to go down this path, we are saying goodbye to the republic and hello to a president king. Mind you, at the same time i think critics today have a somewhat contradictory criticism. Because at the same time people also i would say attacking President Trump for not seizing dictatorial powers in response to the pandemic. People are demanding he imposed nationwide mask wet mandates, that was a piece in the New York Times or
More states to chaung the balance of power. The way the senate was designed was to give a lot of pow tore a little group of people. All that and what biden can do on his own to ensure we never have a year like 2020 again. All in starts right now. Joe biden won the presidency decisively, and he did it in a country that is nearly as polarized as it has ever been. Were now basically the final vote, 7 million votes margin of victory for biden, larger than obama over romney. Obama was the incumbent and its larger than george w. Bushs win over john kerry in 2004, again an incumbent beating a challenger. That 51. 3 , its the highest vote share of any candidate challenging the sitting incumbent since fdrs win over Herbert Hoover back in 1932. And thats because its hard to beat incumbents. Only four elected president s have lost in the last hundred years. But the country rejected donald trump. In the weeks since Election Night weve been on a roller coaster ride. The polls were off again and it
My cohost to get her thoughts as well. Emily thank you, harris and to echo what Jonathan Turley is saying here, to remind viewers, yesterday the argument was over the threshold issue, it was a procedural question of whether this entire proceeding was unconstitutional. Today we are going to see the arguments on the merits. Remember as well of the democrats have charged multiple elements as it is within this one charge of incitement of insurrection and in fact, this is part of what trumps defense team is arguing, this is procedurally inadequate to to have so many charges under one account so expect to see, if we can expect the same style it will be compelling, persuasive and highly organized on the democrat house impeachment managers side going down one by one all of these charges they have made. That leads to the president , thenPresident Trump inciting insurrection. What was particularly persuasive, congressman joe negus of colorado, i think its sort of emblematic of the strength of th
The courts. Good morning and welcome. I am dean reuter. It is my pleasure to welcome you here today. In the room, or watching on the live stream, or cspan. Welcome as we mark the 40th anniversary of the Federalist Society. I say the word mark purposefully. Some applause is appropriate but i am blessed interested in accolades. I am more interested in looking to the future. Indeed, my prediction as a veteran of the Federalist Society is that the Federalist Society is poised to accomplish more in the next 10 years then it has in the past 40. But, that depends on you. Not only is this organization yours, you are the organization. You are the Federalist Society. The Federalist Society is nothing more than its volunteer membership. Well, maybe the donors too. [laughter] the donors are important. We are a Nonprofit Organization and we are good at being a Nonprofit Organization. So, donors are important. The theme of this years convention is particularly topical. The current state of the legal
