While the ranking from tallest to shortest changed for several peaks, van westrom says colorado dnd lose or gain any 14ers. as for the weather system it aced the test and that has implications for far more than 14ers status. the project involved recalculating sea level. sea level isn t ever exactly level, so if you can map out what that surface is, that s the new heights we re going to do for the entire nation. reporter: as part of the calculation noaa measured gravity across the entire united states. we would fly these grids. took 15 years to fly the entire nation. that tells us what the actual gravity is. reporter: using that and sophisticated gps scientists say they can now calculate heights within a couple inches anywhere in the u.s. including colorado s highest peaks. it s fun for the hikers it s important for the rest of the nation, but it s
It is far from over, the former president will be sentenced july 11 days before republican national convention in milwaukee and a few days after the first debate. giving trump clean background the age of 77, presidential status, highly unlikely he will be sentenced to prison but the decision is entirely up to judge merchan who is capable as we now know of doing anything unorthodox. as we witnessed over the past few weeks while donald trump went to appeal, a good shot at winning as well. it won t happen until after the election. joining me right now to discuss the verdict and where both campaigns go from here from biden and trump led to a seems yes, talkshow host kellyanne conway will fox news contributor best-selling author, it s great to have you, what changes now? the verdict you predicted now in the books as we wait for july 11. two things change. the first is in the 12 hours
I brought in what we had said i did toil about this way back saying, i don t know if they should bring this case. it s people just going to see it about a second case here s what we said. joe six-pack is not going to take the time to wrap his head around how the statute of limitations applies to a misdemeanor of falsifying business records if it involves a violation of state election law. in a second crime involving a federal campaign conditional on the residential status of the defendant that s kinda hard to put on a bumper sticker yeah. so but i always got it should have been brought generally by merrick garland because it is that s really the case and that you know, that s the weird thing. it was a falsifying business records case in the state, and yet the closing argument was all about, hey, this is what got him the election. this is what and it did it get them the election? i don t know did russia get them the election? i don t know. and you can t relitigate all that stuff. i never thought the democrats were right to be
