  14. Judges worry about scope and impact of Trump’s immunity argument

    01/10/2024

    Judges worry about scope and impact of Trump’s immunity argument

    A federal appeals court panel raised skepticism and sharply questioned the former president’s lawyer over the argument that he is immune from prosecution and his federal election subversion indictment should be dismissed. Special counsel Jack Smith’s team has argued that a president is not above the law while Trump’s attorneys said that prosecuting him would “open a Pandora’s box” of indicting other former presidents for actions they took while in office. Former federal prosecutor Elie Honig tells Anderson Cooper how quickly the judges could come to a decision and what happens after. Plus, Republican candidates are racing to make their final pitches to voters in Iowa with less than a week until the state's pivotal caucuses. Then just eight days later will be the New Hampshire primary. CNN Chief National Correspondent John King joins AC360 from Washington, DC with the new CNN polling from New Hampshire and where the race stands.  Learn more about your ad choices.

    Monday, July 22, 2019: Trump Slams Squad As "Racist Group of Troublemakers"

    The President launches new attacks on four Democratic Congresswomen of color. He tweets they are racist and not very smart.

Plus, a political crisis in Puerto Rico. Protesters reject the governor's pledge to not run for reelection next year.

    Nancy Pelosi says her advice to Democrats is be in favor of impeachment, if that is what helps you back home.

Plus, the former Special Counsel did nothing to move Republicans. The President and GOP leaders say it is time for Congressional investigations to end, and Republicans in the Senate block votes on measures designed to protect against future foreign election interference. And the Democrats prepare for next week's CNN debates: Joe Biden gets more aggressive, and a National Urban League meeting highlights the competition for African American voters.
