Nomination making his way down the steps as he prepares for another afternoon in court. Its an extraordinary situation to say the least of a former president and someone who is currently running. We have amazing fox team coverage. We have dana perino, Shannon Bream and jessica tarlov. First, lets go to david spunt live outside the federal courthouse where we expect the former president will pull up a short time from now. Hi, david. Hi, martha. Its symbolic here today. You cant see it on camera. Were just feet away from the u. S. Capitol blocks away from the white house. The former president will make his way here, as you said, in motorcade. He will head before the Magistrate Judge. He wont be placed under arrest in handcuffs or mug shots. We know he will specifically be fingerprinted. Once hes here, hes in the custody of u. S. Marshals. Hes not in the custody of the fbi. Hes not going to have his hands behind his back. He did say he would be arrested today. I want to put up this truth
just maybe things in this country would snap back into something resembling a pre-trump normal. dangerous elements of the far right would crawl back into their dark caves and corners that want harm done to the foundations of our most prized institutions, relentlessly maligned for years under donald trump would repair themselves. maybe even overnight. simply because trump is no longer the person sitting behind the resolute desk. sadly it appears that any of those hopes were in vain. more proof this afternoon that the destruction he left in his unhinged wake, the moral wrought he spread quietly continues to spread to this day inside some of our most important and revered institutions. considering chilling new reporting in today s the new york times, cataloging attacks on the fbi. the piece centers in part on a somewhat dishonest effort by a group of former agents calling themselves the suspendables. they wrote a letter earlier this month of accusing the fbi from discriminatin
Statement. do they have someone like mark meadows or someone else that will say, you know what the? he told me that this was all one big scam. you know, trump from all of the accounts, seems to be on message consistently. many people believe that he does believe this. but the question for i think the courts, particularly the appellate courts, is this what we want to have in the criminal code? do we want the federal government to be able to arrest poll situations and say, yeah, you can say false things, but not when you know they re false and you shouldn t listen to us. that s a dangerous road to go down. i think that when you also look at what was raised earlier about the nature of these counts, i think that that, 19th century law involving the denial of voting rights is very sketchy in terms of its legal use here. but they still have to face the
neil: i wanted to get your thoughts while i still have you, governor, there s much made of some of the pit falls of some older established poll situations. you saw the mitch mcconnell frozen moment speaking to reporters. there was the dianne feinstein lost trying to decide what she was supposed to do ahead of a vote. we ve seen this again and again with president biden, whether fair or not. you think there should be an age at which you can no longer hold office? i think the better way to do it, neil, we should have term limits. you know, i served as a governor in new jersey where i had term limits. two terms is all i can do. if we had term limits for folks in congress, 12 years in the house, 12 years in the senate, that if we had term limits, that that would eliminate a lot of this conversation. neil: that wouldn t stop the private citizen, joe biden, for
Not just the states we have seen these draconian laws being proposed or passed, but even in the states like maryland, where i enjoy the rights to do a lot of this, but providers are feeling slightly defensive. we have to make sure we reinforce what is safe and healthy and accessible. and all three of those terms are being redefined by poll situations, not doctors. i want to turn to the politics of this next. i m going to ask both of you to stick around. a quick break for us. we will all be right back. all b.
