sick notes and saying that other work and health care professionals would instead do that to take that away from gps. it's worth just saying, though, the government isn't clear who would actually do that instead of gps. they said they would be medically trained, they would be medical professionals, but it's not clear how they'll be funded, where they'll come from or how they will be trained either. so, the government is saying that they're going to consult on that. it's worth saying, though, that the measures that in the next parliament after — in other words, the general election. and that is quite a significant hurdle for the conservative government at the moment, obviously quite a distance behind in the polls. so, in many ways, really, what we're seeing here is a glimpse into the conservative party manifesto for that general election. manifesto for that general election that's coming up later this year. labour, for their part, they're saying, well, there is a crisis in mental health and they say the government is attempting to make mental health a new front of their culture wars,

hey, everyone. it's 4:00 in new york. i'm in for nicole wallace. special counsel jack smith is a prosecutor that stays out of the spotlight. he prefers to speak through his fiings. that's why his laltest brief in the federal election case merits our attention. over the weekend, the justice department responded to trump's claims that he is immune from prosecution. what he did was within the scope of his duties as president of the united states. it's an argument that trump was taking to the courts in order to get the whole election case dismissed. the special counsel is speaking to the court. let's be honest. he's also speaking to any of us who care about the health of our democracy. prosecutors acknowledge the fact we're dealing with an unprecedented situation. for the first time in our nation's history, a grand jury charged a former president of committing crimes while in office to overturn an election

he lost. in response the defendant claims to protect the institution of the presidecy, he must be cloaked with immunity from criminal prosecution unless the house impeached and the senate convicted him for the same conduct. he's wrong. the special counsel also suggests that more than justhe indictment of donald trump and the election is at stake here. the presidency plays a vital role in our constitutional system. so does the principle of accountabili f criminal acts. particularly, those that strike at heart of the democratic process. rather than vindicating our constitutional framework, the defendants sweeping immunity claim threaten to license prosecutes to commit crime to remain in office. if donald trump is not held accountable, prosecutors say the basic principles of our democracy are up for debate. a scheme to thwart the peaceful transfer of power is the check on executive abuses. the president colts to power by

above calendar demonstrates, expedited resolution of this case will ensure the colorado voters cast ballots in the presidential primary election, knowing whether trump is qualified to serve as president. providing the certainty is important both for the candidates and colorado's republican primary and most importantly for the millions of republican and unaffiliated voters in colorado who will be casting ballots in that election. the urgency, it is palpable, barb. >> i think she's right. she makes the argument in colorado, they are a super tuesday state. she said her deadline drop dead is something like february 12th. in the iowa caucuses, they're going to go cast their votes on january 15th and people could be disinclined to vote for donald trump. in donald trump's defense, if they think he might not be a viable candidate, and so to protect his interests, the court really needs to decide this very quickly. >> and here is the thing, there are the legal arguments going to

democracy. that's really when the deadline is, that's where, you know, the ground meets the rubber, so to speak. i don't see at this point, if it were only one state, only colorado, there might be a procedural way for the supreme court to kind of get out of deciding this kind of issue. but the supreme court doesn't like deciding big constitutional issues if they can avoid it. now there are two states, the general election is coming, i am with barb, i believe the supreme court is going to have to wrangle with these very, very technical issues looking back to the intent of the drafters of the 14th amendment and decide once and for all what the limits of that are. i think it is important for us on programs like this and in our work to make clear to the american people this is part of the procedure, this, too, is how democracy works. this isn't somebody railroading a system in maine, this is a secretary of state following the law as she sees it. voters lodged a complaint, she made a decision and then sent it to the courts. that's exactly what is supposed to be happening.

where different states are coming to different conclusions. and that in the interim poses challenges of its own. >> it does. it is very problematic. i will start off by saying that every state has always had their own methods of running primaries right down to the iowa caucus, which you can make the argument that isn't democratic at all. it is a bunch of people getting together and making decisions that carry an outsized amount of weight. so, the -- there are states in which joe biden is not on the primary ballot. these are the kind of quirks that happen in every election season, every time, but people don't pay as close attention to them. that's why i think it is less likely that in the primary context is when the supreme court makes this decision. but i think come general election time, when election officials need to print those ballots and there needs to be a clear choice not just for electoral purposes, logistically, but for the american people to have faith in

stir up the crowd, but maybe even more importantly, the things he didn't do in the 187 minutes when he as president had the power to stop the chaos that was occurring at the capitol and instead chose to do nothing. so it is on that basis that she made her finding that he engaged in insurrection or at the very least aided those who did. >> i appreciate the call to go over that. what a world where just a few -- more than 30 pages seems look a light and easy read compared to the legal documents that we have all gotten accustomed to reading in this day and age. barbara mcquade, thank you for starting us off. when we return, a dangerous illegal threat against maine's top election officials, it is part of a wave of violent political threats with experts warning of much worse to come. that's ahead. plus, russia's brutal assault against ukraine a large scale missile attack launched against the capital city kyiv and a swift retaliation against ukraine against russian targets.

be made in court and there is also the discourse that is happening in the court of public opinion. i want you to speak to the point that congressman raskin made that section 3 of the 14th amendment addresses the only type of disqualification where the individual actually has control, rather than seeing this as undemocratic, seeing it as particularly democratic. >> yeah. i mean, he's absolutely right. the constitution contains a lot of limitations on who can hold office, including the presidency. the age being the one we think of that is easiest. people don't quibble with that. there are all kinds of procedures about primary election and that's why i think that the challenges that are happening right now may not end in quite the bang as whatever comes with respect to the general election. in every state you have different procedures by which candidates are chosen to be on the primary ticket. sometimes through elections, sometimes through the choice of

republicans say the rioters were mostly violent. that's down from 26%% in 2021. i think this is another question, how do you deep the memory of the truth of what happened here alive. >> i'm going to be slightly contrarian. i agree with everything that tim has said in how these former trump loyalists should be out there and can do a lot to sort of bring people back to the fold to normalcy and politics. but honestly, i don't want it to be writing a book and going on a book tour. think need to be active engaged and mobilize and willing to mobilize people in this country to vote differently, to act differently, to legislate differently if we're going to excise trumpism out of our democracy. it's not just an election.
