KAY JOINS US THIS MORNING.
AND WE HAVE A LOT TO GET TO.
LET’S DIVE RIGHT IN.
ALL 100 SENATORS ARE EXPECTED TO
SWEAR IN TODAY AS JURORS IN THE
SECOND IMPEACHMENT OF DONALD
TRUMP, THE TRIAL.
THE NINE HOUSE DEMOCRATS SERVING
AS IMPEACHMENT MANAGERS
DELIVERED THE SINGLE ARTICLE FOR
INCITING AN INSURRECTION TO THE
SENATE YESTERDAY.
THE TRIAL WILL BEGIN IN ERNEST
FEBRUARY 8th.
A LITTLE OVER A WEEK FROM NOW.
GIVING BOTH SIDES TIME TO
PREPARE THEIR CASES AND THE
SENATE TIME TO CONFIRM PRESIDENT
BIDEN’S CABINET APPOINTEES.
WE ALSO LEARNED SENATE PRESIDENT
PRO TEM, LONGEST SERVING MEMBER
OF THE MAJORITY SIDE, PATRICK
LEAHY, WILL PRESIDE OVER THE
TRIAL.
>> OKAY.
I’VE BEEN CLEANING UP MY WORK
SPACE HERE.
.
>> LET’S GET BACK TO THE NEWS
FOR A MINUTE.
I UNDERSTAND ROBERTS IS LIKE I
CAN’T DO IT.
I’LL BE OUT TAKING A SMOKE SO I
CAN’T DO YOUR IMPEACHMENT THING.
BUT SHOULDN’T THEY FIND A JUDGE
IN THE D.C. CIRCUIT OR SOMETHING
OTHER THAN A DEMOCRAT, ANY
DEMOCRAT WHO ALREADY VOTED TO
IMPEACH DONALD TRUMP A YEAR AGO?
BECAUSE I WOULD BE SAYING THE
SAME THING.
MY GOD, WHAT WOULD WE BE SAYING
IF WE GET TO DO THIS NOW.
WHAT WOULD WE BE SAYING IF RON
JOHNSON OR JOHN CORNYN OR LINDH
LINDSEYLINDH
LINDSEY GRAHAM WERE RUNNING
THINGS.
NOTHING AGAINST SENATOR LEAHY.
YOU CAN’T HAVE SOMEBODY RUNNING
YOUR IMPEACHMENT TRIAL THAT
VOTED TO IMPEACH HIM A YEAR AGO
OR VOTED NOT TO.
>> THE JUDGE SHOULD NOT ALSO
SERVE ON THE JURY OF A TRIAL.
JOHN ROBERTS, THE SUPREME COURT
CHIEF JUSTICE SAID I CAN’T DO
THIS AGAIN.
I DON’T HAVE TIME.
BUT THIS IS TECHNICALLY THE WAY
IT SHOULD GO OUT IF THE SUPREME
COURT JUSTICE, THE CHIEF JUSTICE
CAN’T SIT ON THIS TRIAL.
BUT IT DOES GIVE THE APPEARANCE
CERTAINLY THAT A PERSON WHO IS
ALREADY CONVINCED THAT THIS MAN
IS GUILTY, THAT THIS PRESIDENT
SHOULD BE IMPEACHED, IT DOES
GIVE THE IMPRESSION THAT IS A
PARTISAN OPERATION.
I SUSPECT SENATOR LEAHY WILL DO
EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER NOT TO
DO THAT.
I’M SURE THE REPUBLICANS WILL
SEIZE ON IT.
HOUSE DEMOCRATS PORING OVER
HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF VIDEO TO
HELP BUILD THEIR CASE THAT
DONALD TRUMP INCITED THE CAPITOL
ATTACK.
SOURCES TELL THE PAPER ONE IDEA
UNDER CONSIDERATION IS TO
PRODUCE A VIDEO HOW RIOTERS
REACTED TO THE JANUARY 6th
REMARKS BEFORE THE ATTACK.
AND DEMOCRATS ARE PARTICULARLY INTERESTED IN THIS VIDEO
INTERESTED IN THIS VIDEO
PRODUCED BY THE ONLINE FORM JUST
SECURITY
SECURITY. >> YEAH!
>> INVADE THE CAPITOL BUILDING.
>> TAKE THE CAPITOL.
.
>> TAKE THE CAPITOL!
>> TAKE THE CAPITOL RIGHT NOW!
>> SO, KATTY, YOU CAN HEAR IN
THAT VIDEO THE CROWD HOURS
BEFORE LISTENING TO PRESIDENT
TRUMP’S SPEECH.
IT IS IN THE TWO MONTHS LEADING
UP TO JANUARY 6th.
IT’S GOING TO BE WILD.
