and for those who have been wronged and betrayed, i am your retribution. i am your retribution. donald trump at cpac over the weekend, feeding his followers the dark conspiracy driven vision for america that they crave. just like fox news, trump and the rest of the republican party would rather fill their followers brains with lies than tick them off by telling them the truth. also tonight, trump pledges to run in 2024 even if he s indicted. the strongman principle used by other indicted leaders around the world where criminal charges actually make them more popular with their base. plus, how ron desantis is creating just the right kind of right wing safe space marjorie greene was asking for where you re free to lead your cruelty fly and the children of white christians won t have to worry their delicate, fragile minds learning anything that makes their right wing parents uncomfortable. we begin tonight with jim jordan s subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal
these days. and of course, we saw the troubling case in front of judge cannon in south florida, when trump tried to kneecap the federal investigation into his possession of classified materials. so it s good to be concerned. it s good to be alert. ultimately, the responsibility here falls on the republican party for denouncing the monster that they have created and pointing out how norm violating trump is, even if he technically could govern from prison. the other thing i think i would love for you to comment on is we re already seeing this trump style filter down into officials in the states. you have in georgia these attempts to change the rules to make it so that you can get rid of a prosecutor who is doing something that you politically don t like. thinking fani willis here, making it easier to cashier someone like her, two of the matters under consideration per the new york times would allow lawmakers to punish or remove prosecutors for loosely defined reasons including willfu
in fani willis, and the example they have come up to justify with it, they re saying it s not about willis. it s actually about another prosecutor from 2021 who went to prison for corruption. and the response to that is pretty obvious, right? that was 2021. and you re now just two terms later getting this bill up. and the reality is, if they re saying there was no way to deal with that prosecutor who was corrupt, well, he was dealt with in exactly the right way. he was prosecuted, he went to prison. this looks like the thinnest of excuses to control willis. and a fun way to try to do trump s bidding and punish a prosecutor he s afraid of. joyce vance, thank you. still ahead, a comprehensive look at the ways ron desantis is looking to make florida a safe space for conservatives while everyone else can pound sand. n d with intelligent alerts when a person or familiar face is detected. so you can listen in.
