Her from office. Basically because he can. State attorney will join me tonight. Also new details on a possible fourth indictment against donald trump in georgia. Which could come in a matter of days. What fani willis could charge him with. Plus, who his codefendants might be. Another big win for democracy. Proposed constitutional change in ohio meant to thwart the will of the public on abortion and other major issues loses by a mile. Clearly we have a lot to get to tonight as you can see. But we begin with an alarming genuinely frightening news. Frightening item of news regarding violent threats against the president of the United States, joe biden. Vice president Kamala Harris and other elected officials. Threats that appear to be tied to Donald Trumps mounting legal peril. Threats came from a utah man named craig d. Robertson, who will not get to plead his case in court because he was shot and killed today by the fbi as they were attempting to execute an Arrest Warrant. But what he d
Achilles heel of knowledge. Jack smith must prove Beyond A Reasonable Doubt that on the night of january 5 and into january 6, that donald trump knew that he had lost the election. And reading through the indictment, i didnt see anything new which would actually be able to establish that. And just within the last hour, trump posted about todays events writing im now going to washington, d. C. To be arrested for having challenged the corrupt, rigged and stolen election. It is a great honor because im being arrested for you. He also wrote, i need one more indictment to ensure my election. Joining us now, sasha burns live in bedminster, new jersey. Tom winter is also covering the arraignment. And also peter baker is here with us. As well as Chuck Rosenberg, former u. S. Attorney, senior fbi official and an msnbc contributor. So weve been looking at these live pictures from the sky over bedminster. We know that he needs to be here in d. C. By 4 00 this afternoon which is three hours from t
Interference charges. Now, i will remind you, the court could have just affirmed the u. S. District courts ruling that, no, a president ial does not have absolute immunity. But that was not the decision tonight. And while hearing the case does not mean that ultimately they will rule in trumps favor, the highest court in the land just gave trump something that he has been aggressively fighting for, time. The Oral Arguments in the case have been set for the week of april 22nd, nearly two months from now. Why so much time . And after that, even in a best case scenario, it will be a few weeks before a decision comes down. That is the best case considering we know that there are at least some of the Supreme Court justices who dont agree with the earlier rulings. Otherwise, they would not be hearing the case. And if the court does decide to affirm the earlier ruling, as they should, and hand the case back to District Court judge tanya chutkan, she would need a few months to get the case back
any moment now donald trump will be arriving at the courthouse where a three judge panel will hear arguments, can the former president be held criminally responsible for his efforts to overturn his 2020 loss or does he have immunity from prosecution. this is special coverage, i m layer ar laura coates. and i m kaitlan collins. this could ultimately change the landscape of what presidents are allowed do. trump is foregoing the campaign trail to be at these oral arguments as he claim that s has absolute immunity, that his actions constitute official acts that he took while in office. of course i was entitled as president of the united states and commander in chief to immunity. i m entitled to immunity. every president has immunity. especially one that did the job i did. i did a great job. and i wasn t working for myself, i was working for the country. i wasn t campaigning. election was long over. wasn t campaigning. i was looking for voter fraud, something that i have to
