so the idea here that they're accusing him of misrepresenting his net worth and all this evidence that is been put forward about why he was doing that, all speaking to ego as opposed to actually demonstrating this net worth, that really attacks his personal brand. it's one of the reasons we've seen him show up so many times during the -- of this case, because as you noted it's not just how many hundreds of millions of dollars they could have to pay out in the civil case, it's also the possibility is on the line that they may not be able to do business here in the state of new york. a caveat that even if that is put forth as one of the penalties here, they would likely result in years and years of appeals. but this is incredibly personal. there's no jail time on the line here, this is not a criminal case like the ones he's facing at a different courthouse here in manhattan, and in florida, and of course in washington d.c.. this is a civil case, but it gets to the heart of who he is purported to be from almost his entire life. >> yes, the financial exile in
i mean, he listed jim jordan, mo brooks, kevin mccarthy who have all been requested for either documents or their presence and testimony at some point the, and who have just simply ignored or haven't responded. >> reporter: exactly. nancy mace sort of walked right into that. she's the one who actually brought up the fact that the january 6th select committee wanted to enforce their subpoenas against some of those folks that you've mentioned, including current members of congress who are chairing some of these hearings right now. she brought that up, and then jared moskowitz sort of took that bait and went with it. when he first said he would vote to hold hunter biden in congress, we all sort of perked up to listen to what he was saying, and he had a pretty big caveat, and it's not likely -- it's actually very doubtful that republicans would take him up on that. this is of course as you mentioned as the guests have been talking about, a coordinated moment between democrats and hunter biden. this is a moment in which you clearly saw republicans going after one another. andy biggs was the voice of reason at one point in the
when the problem began. the potential interim payments would be appreciated. it�*s a little bit of a caveat there, i would just like to get to the end of this, really. sticking plasters, whilst appreciated, i just feel as though we�*re not moving forward. i�*d like to get everything done, really. but it seems that heels are still being very sticky and being dragged behind and it would be nice if we could get some short, sharp steps forward. i�*m not surprised you came to that conclusion because your case has spanned over 20 years, i was listening to you on the radio this morning and it is staggering, awful story. for viewers who don�*t know your particular story, let�*s just go through it. because when it first happened, the initial deficit, you didn�*t think, you were not suspicious of the computer were you initially?
the criminalised people, the people that went through terrible, terrible traumas in very similar of not worse circumstances than my family, are now looking to have those exonerations pushed and moved forward as a batch. but one of the things that's been announced that really concerns me is the fact that the minister, kevin hollinrake, has mentioned the fact that some of these people will be guilty, but they will be all asked to sign a document to say that they committed no offence. and i worry about that. i think having talked to many of my friends who were victims of this, to say that some of the people were guilty, if you were in a room of a 100 people and someone said that two of them were thieves, how would you react to the other 98? and i find that really, really difficult. i don't understand why that caveat needs to be there. i don't understand why we've got into this situation and i don't
who were victims of this, to say that some of them were guilty, if you were in a room of a 100 people and two of them said they were thieves, how would you react to the other 98? i find that very, very difficult. i don�*t understand why that caveat needs to be there. i don�*t understand why we�*ve got into this situation and i don�*t understand why individuals cannot be treated properly. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. let�*s look at some other stories making news. the london to birmingham stretch of the now—truncated hs2 railway could cost as much as £66 billion alone. that�*s almost twice as much as the original estimate for the entire project. the hs2 ltd executive chair said reasons for the cost increase include original budgets being too low, changes to scope, poor delivery and inflation. the parents of a british tourist
they criminalise people, the people that went through terrible traumas in very similar circumstances possibly worse than my family. looking to have those examinations pushed and moved forward. one of the things that have been been announced. that really concerns me, the minister, kevin hollinrake mentioned that some of these people will be guilty but they all need to sign a document to say they committed no offence, i worry about that. having talked to many of my friends who were victims to, say many of them were guilty, if you were in a room of a 100 people and two of them said they were thieves, how would you react to the other 98? i find that very, very difficult. i don't understand why that caveat needs to be there. i don't
politicians put this earlier? why didn't the courts? why didn't the justice system, why didn't journalists do? it chimes with a resignation of national sense that something is not quite right with this but other things too.- this but other things too. thank you so much. this but other things too. thank you so much- as— this but other things too. thank you so much. as promised _ this but other things too. thank you so much. as promised let's - this but other things too. thank you so much. as promised let's speak. this but other things too. thank you i so much. as promised let's speak now to lee castleton who was left bankrupt after a two year legal battle with the post office. his story featured prominently in that tv drama. lee, welcome to the programme. a reaction to what you have from the prime minister, please. their otential prime minister, please. their potential interim _ prime minister, please. their potential interim payments . prime minister, please. tue: " potential interim payments would prime minister, please. tte: " potential interim payments would be appreciated. it's a little bit of a caveat there, i would just like to get to the end of this, really.
that this is a good deal for democrats, that it's a good deal for the country. his view is essentially that democrats got what they wanted here, reflects that old biden/mccarthy deal. this deal has gotten a thumbs up from senate minority leader, mitch mcconnell, and top senate appropriate tors in both parties. the big caveat is the intensely negative reaction from the house freedom caucus, the group of ultra conservative house lawmakers, let's show how some of them are reacting to the deal. on the screen, the freedom caucus said the deal is worse than we thought. if you add up all the spending, it's actually 1.658 trillion. they call it a total failure. marjorie taylor greene says she's a no on this deal. interesting because she voted yes on the biden/mccarthy deal which spent more than this deal does. chip roy says the deal is terrible. 1.659 overall spending and gives up conservative leverage. ralph norman says if this is the best republicans can do, there's no hope of balancing the budget.
representation of that stellar performance for rich investors but also for lots of ordinary people who rely on 401(k) s or invested pension funds for their retirement. joining us now, my washington post colleague, heather long, a columnist for the post for economics, and a member of the editorial board. heather, great to see you. there's always a lag time between the economy improving and peoples lived experience of improving, but does it seem based on what we know that they will continue to experience a better economy, lower prices for a longer time, so on and so forth? >> the answer looks like, yes. all the signs right now, at least almost all the science, you had to add a little caveat, are pointing to a miracle soft landing. we continue to see inflation come down. we continue to see the economy growing and avoiding that recession. most of all, americans are
when talking about planning around them, so what would be the biggest hurdle for you? what if they ruled at the end of their term, which is june? what if they waited even a month from now, after you already of course had the printing deadline for your ballot, what then? >> there are a lot of hypotheticals that could come out of the united states supreme court taking this case, but to take a step back, i certified trump to the ballot today because that is what the colorado supreme court ordered in their decision. the colorado supreme court stated trump did engage in insurrection. he is responsible for many of the actions on january 6 and because of his engagement in insurrection, he is disqualified from the colorado ballot. but the court added a caveat that if an appeal was filed, i was to place him on the ballot. you know, donald trump, his name is very likely to be printed on the ballots, just given the timeline.
