I would love to talk i will talk about it. Theyre not taking away my First Amendment rights. Donald trump claiming earlier this week that no one is going to stop him from speaking about his criminal case.

Plus, attorney general Merrick Garland appoints a Special Counsel to investigate hunter biden . And republicans are predictably complaining about it after spending months demanding exactly that.

Despite his fame and political prominence, he cant just publicly abuse witnesses because hes on the campaign trail. The judge who taught him that lesson today is named Tanya Chutkan. I have a bunch more to say on her in a bit, but we begin the reidout toni
Underway right now. Good evening once again, im stephanie ruhle. Tonight, in his First Oval Office address, President Biden made the case for the bipartisan debt ceiling bill. He spoke of an economic crisis averted, and reminded the nation that, without the bill, the u. S. Was in fact headed for a disastrous u. S. Default. Passing this Budget Agreement was critical. The stakes could not have been higher. They were extreme voices threatening to take america, for the first time in our 247 year history, to default on our national debt. Nothing nothing would have been more irresponsible. Nothing would have been more catastrophic. No one got everything they wanted. But the American People got what they needed. We have heard of an economic crisis, an economic collapse. I want to commend speaker mccarthy. You know, he and i, we and our teams, we were able to get along and get things done. The final vote in both chambers was overwhelming. Far more of our bipartisan than thought was possible. T

very good wednesday morning to you, i m jim sciutto. and i m erica hill. today president biden taking that state of the union message to the battleground state of wisconsin. it s part of a two-day swing where he will be touting his administration s accomplishments and also which of course were laid out during last night s address. sounds like the start of a campaign. president biden s speech set the stage for a likely 2024 bid. he vowed to, quote, finish the job. while making a point to call for unity and bipartisanship, asking to work with republicans even as he sparred with a handful of republican lawmakers on a number of topics. instead of making the wealthy pay their fair share some republicans, some republicans, want medicare and social security to sunset. i m not saying it s a majority. i m not politely not naming them, but it s being proposed by some of you. look so, folks, as we all apparently agree, social security and medicare is off off the books now,
