Whoever the judge is going to be here in florida, shes going to be able to relook at that and relitigate that and trump might appeal some of these rulings and want to go up to the supreme court. i think hes going to do everything he can to try to use the legal process to delay this so that he doesnt have a trial in this case. >> laura, do you still think its possible it would happen before the election? >> theres one hand what would be prudent for the average defendant, who doesnt know whether t...

In my generation, it was the first time that we had seen a system fail so spectacularly in our lifetime. this whole system wants you to feel like trayvon was a criminal! [crowd] thats right! this whole system is wrong! and then we see coming out of california this hashtag of black lives matter. [sandy] black lives matter was started kind of spontaneously by alicia garza, who was an activist in oakland, who was just really pissed off at the acquittal of george zimmerman. i remember waking up in t...

Those moments. >> not guilty in the shooting death of trayvon martin. >> we saw the trial of zimmerman. we saw nothing come out of it. in 2012 was this awakening moment. in my generation, it was the first time we had seen a system fail to spectacularly. >> this whole system was like trayvon was a criminal. this whole system is wrong. >> and then we see coming out of california this hash tag of black lives matter. >> black lives matter was started spontaneously alicia garza, who was an activist i...

Unturned, all with an eye toward ensure people view the investigation as non-political. >> jack smith does, however, have a bit of a mixed record. several of his highest-profile cases ended up failing. he indicted the governor of virginia, then the supreme court threw the case out. he was involved in the indictment of senator bob menendez from new jersey which ended up in an acquittal. and then that case got thrown out too. he was involved in the prosecution of john edwards, the former vice pres...

He was in and out of power, bouncing back to become italys longest serving prime minister since the second world war. his eccentric behaviour and bizarre jokes appalled many, but they appealed to his core supporters. i have to bring you some greetings from amman. who was it? it was someone with a tan. it was someone with a tan. in 2009, a man smashed a model of milan cathedral into the prime ministers face, but none of it stopped his love of partying and the allegations about his sex life. berlu...

Has enormous discretion and she could essentially almost have a pocket veto on the case by delaying it until after the republican nomination or even the general election. i think if she were to do that, i think the doj would appeal and do sort of a writ of man dams. an appeal to the 11th circuit. there they might seek her recusal. certainly a faster date. thats one of the ways i think she would do a disservice to this country where people are entitled to hear the evidence and weigh it for themse...

Charges of corruption. he was sometimes found guilty in lower courts, but used italys tortuous legal system to ensure he never went to jail. io sono innocente. sentenced to prison for tax fraud in 2013, he did community service with dementia patients instead. he was in and out of power, bouncing back to become italys longest serving prime minister since the second world war. his eccentric behaviour and bizarre jokes appalled many, but they appealed to his core supporters. in 2009, a man smashed ...

Happen. >> mary, i want to ask you because the inside the doj is kind of a mystery to most people. so with the status we are at at this point, what is happening in the department of justice now? jack smith and his team were walled off, essentially. are they now working with other members of the department of justice legal team? what is going on in the building right now? >> this remains an ongoing prosecution. so his appointment as special counsel continues through until there is a conviction or...

Florida is trumps home state. in miami-dade county trump goss 46% of the vote, 46% of a 12-person jury is 5.5 jurors and i think that may be donald trumps best chance at an acquittal by getting some of those supporters on the jury to do some jury nullification where they just ignore the evidence and say, i dont want my guy locked up. palm beach county is 43%. he does better here than in d.c. but it was foreign to smith to file in florida because he can make the public understand its not about po...

How much favorable do you think it would be if is a jury pulled from the west palm court area. >> good to be with you, kaitlan. it is a big deal that this was filed in florida because in washington, d.c., trump got 5% of the vote in the last election. so, yeah, thats one reason why republicans think that jurors in washington, d.c. are members of antifa or something because they think they have it out for them. in florida, its a red state. florida is trumps home state. in miami-dade county, trump...
