Next in the case. Plus, officers who put their lives on the line on january 6th were at the Courthouse Yesterday for that hearing. Well bring you their reaction. And theres still one more major legal issue on the horizon for donald trump. What the georgia prosecutor is saying about that case. Good morning and welcome to Way Too Early on this friday, august 4th. Its friday, folks. We made it. Im jonathan lemire, thanks for starting your day with us. History was made in the nations capitol again yesterday where for the First Time Ever a former president of the United States was arraigned for his alleged efforts to subvert american democracy. Just a few blocks away from where he took the Oath Of Office and from where his supporters carried out an unprecedented act of violence just a few years later, donald j. Trump pleaded not guilty to four Felony Charges yesterday stemming from his actions after the 2020 election. The charges were conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to o
he was born in 1827, he was a minister in the church, he served as a chaplain for the union army during the american civil war. then in 1870, he was elected by the mississippi legislature to the united states senate believe it or not. the first ever black man stand to either body of congress in our country s history, was him. it is sort of hard to imagine that today, mississippi was the first day to actually send a black man to the, congress but they did. and they did it all the way back in 1870. and then believe it or not, an 1875, they did it again. the mississippi legislator said blanche k bruise to the united states senate. that s the second time ever a black man was elected to that chamber. and you re probably wondering why or how that happened. the reason mississippi was actually able to make history like that all the way back in the 1870s was because of reconstruction. after the civil war, mississippi was forced to adopt a bunch of new laws and franchising the states n
ironic it is that your the justice says when they re nominate and they re going through the confirmation process, they say we don t like to comment on hypothetical cases. and it was watching the opening segment and it was like no one is aggrieved, there actually is no case here, but they have no problem making decisions about hypothetical cases if, that, say someone one day was aggrieved. that s a great point. they re-found their ability to weigh in on high post. exactly. great show as always, my friend. great to see, you enjoy the rest of your evening off. and thanks to at-home for joining us tonight. alex has the night off. i m filling in for her this evening. but we begin tonight with the supreme court. and his name was jerome rebels he was born in 1827 he was a minister in the amy church. he served as a chaplain for the army for the american civil war. and in 1870, he was elected by the mississippi legislator to the united states senate believe it or not. the firs
reporter: well goodnight, or good morning, it is two a.m. on the east coast. one a.m. an iowa where donald trump was declared the winner. a record shattering a win, the former president conjures up a pretty big question is this race over before it has begun? i m abby philip here in washington, and you are watching cnn s special live coverage of the cnn caucuses. the results of the hawkeye state are echoing across the nation, but what exactly are the message that voters sent tonight. it might very well be that the trump brand is still gold as gold with republicans so how big exactly was this trump when? if you add up rhonda santas nikki haley and vivek ramaswamy. they are combined total, is still not what trump got tonight. that math for, the second and third place finishers is cold and hard, and desantis and haley are now arguing that they have a reason to keep running. but, the question both will here starting this, morning and with throughout the next couple of we
you had conservatives from the house freedom caucus chip roy and dan bishop voting against it with all four democrat members of that committee refusing really to bail out the fractured g.o.p. conference over this bill that they didn t negotiate and would not have written themselves. this advances the legislation now to a full floor vote. and there is a considerable effort to whip the vote and count the votes on both sides. speaker mccarthy pledged yesterday that two thirds of republicans will end up supporting this on the floor. but conservatives like dan bishop are calling on their colleagues to oppose the bill saying that they expect it won t even get half of the conference in support. i m just fed up with the lies. i m fed up with the lack of courage. the cowardice. and i intend, in the time that i m here, i intend to see to it that those that there is somebody who is prepared to say what needs to be done. 434 members of congress, nobody could have done a worse job.
