emma like am i free? can i watch you guys? now, i know. all right. burning the midnight oil, chris a s. i ghlove to see, my friend, i have a good night. you do. thank d you for joining me this evening. it took nearly a month to get it, but we finally have it, the d.c. circuit court of appeals has ruled on presidential immunity, donald trump s last best attempt to evade a criminal trial for his attempts to overturn the 2020 election. it is unanimous ruling, rimmed i by all three federal appeals court judges overseeing this case, to biden appointees and one appointee of president george h. w. bush. those judges spell it out and no uncertain terms. donald trump s claim that a former president cannot be duly prosecuted is worthless. quoting from the ruling, it would be a striking paradox if the president, alone, is vested with the constitutional duty to take care of the laws he faithfully executed, where the e sole officer capable of defying those laws with impunity.
