headquarters in new york. welcome everyone to alex witt reports. developing this hour a major week ahead in the georgia election case. former president donald trump and his 18 codefendants are due to be arraigned. trump and 11 codefendants have waived the need to appear in person, but we ll be watching for the six others who have yet to do so, including mark meadows, since they could be televised life. we could also see the release of the fulton county special grand jury report by the end of this week which has been at the center of d.a. fani willis investigation. now, despite legal troubles, trump is dominating the gop primary, leading in a new poll by 46 points. earlier today, republican governor chris sununu said the former presidents rivals need to hit him harder. i think they have to be a little tougher on trump. chris christie goes nuclear on him, god bless christy, he does a great job with that. he exposes a lot of that, which i think is important. i think wh ....
tapper: in 2009, south carolina governor mark sanford was a republican rock star. his reputation as a budget-slashing deficit hawk family man had the gop betting on him to beat obama in 2012 until he became a missing person. the search for sanford threw his office into chaos and turned up a secret love affair and a bizarre set of lies that coined the phrase to hike the appalachian trail. but it also revealed something deeper how even the most tightly controlled political persona can mask the messy, imperfect reality of a human being. and counterintuitively, when the world was crashing down around him, baring it all might have been the savviest political move of mark sanford s career. it s monday night. do you know where your governor is? that s what the citizens of south carolina are wondering where in the world is our governor? a mystery tonight in south carolina. the state s governor, mark sanford, disappeared for days. governor alert: the search for mark ....
to register for assistance. earlier this week, i visited fema headquarters in washington. to thank the emergency responding personnel for working 24/7 here in florida and throughout the southeast, and in maui, and hawaii. i want to reiterate that appreciation today. i also convened my entire cabinet as part of a whole of government response. and that response is to increase the number and intensity of the extreme weather events, and be aware we are going to use all the resources available in the government to do it. nobody can deny the impact of climate crisis. at least nobody intelligent can deny the impact of the climate crisis anymore. just look around. around the nation and the world, for that matter. historic floods, intense droughts, extreme heat, deadly wildfires. ones that have caused serious damage like we ve never seen before. just since being president, in two and a half years, i ve flown over more land burned to the ground as a consequence of wildfires then ....
along the appalachian trail to get there. [birds chirping] tapper: being from philadelphia, i have an inherent distrust of anything that comes from new jersey. although i do acknowledge that the garden state punches way above its weight when it comes to political scandals. [indistinct conversations] in 2004, the democratic governor of new jersey, jim mcgreevey, stepped into a press room just like this and became an overnight sensation when he admitted to a gay affair and resigned in the same speech. a governor coming out of the closet was genuinely shocking, a career-killer at that time. looking back, though, i can t help but feel that we were also quick to embrace the headline that we may have forgotten to dig a little deeper, because the reason why jim mcgreevey resigned is a lot more complicated than we remember. ah, new jersey america s communal jacuzzi, or cesspool, depending on who you ask. [glass shatters] a land with its own unique culture and customs and a ....
won t open next week, parents are asking why the warning was so last minute. it is a bit frustrating because it just seemed to be last second that they decided to say the building is not safe. this school in south london has been partially closed. i have two children, one of my children is in key stage two so her building is this one here which will be closed, and she will be relocated to another site about 20 minutes that way. my son is in year two so he will stay in the building that is still safe and usable. i will have a double drop off and pick up. the government says it is acting now because the guidance changed after a raac beam collapsed in a school last week. the beam had previously been thought safe. raac was used in public buildings from the 19505 to the mid 1990s because it was quicker to manufacture than traditional reinforced concrete and easier to install. as you can see, it is fairly lightweight and you can probably see the air bubbles through the concre ....
