wow, this is some known i can relate to because they re doing the same thing about me. and as hurricane in approaches landfall, the nightmare scenario for flooding, the west coast of florida. get ready and do not underestimate the potential that this storm can bring. all in starts right now. good evening from new york and chris hazy maeve heard this, a final hearing of the january six committee has been postponed due to the intimate landfall of hurricane ian in fort s gulf coast. we ll be covering that in just a bit. but today the biggest criminal trial related to the insurrection actually began in washington. members of the far-right gang the oath keepers including its founder this man, stewart rhodes the third are on trial for seditious conspiracy for what cause prosecutors say was accorded and premeditated effort to disrupt the peaceful plant transfer of power in the senate. all five members, and roads in particular has quite a colorful history. you notice for instan
