1:07 am
speaking about is gathering momentum for president trump to be impeached a 2nd time gabe does that include an increasing number of republicans. the short answer is yes there's many there are as many as 4 republican senators now that are calling for trump to be removed from office that is very significant because of course there are only 100 u.s. senators in the house of representatives there are also numerous republicans that have indicated that they might sign on to the impeachment in the house of representatives donald trump as well so there are calls from all quarters including even republicans that are no they used to work for donald trump or used to be in the white house that are no longer in the white house so there is essentially 3 scenarios that could play out here number one is trump is impeached by the house of representatives that seems very likely at this point and that could come as early as the middle of next week the 2nd scenario is that trump is removed from office

1:09 am
personal account he says is trying to block free speech and in his view try twitter is trying to silence not only him but his supporters as well many of trump's most hardcore ardent supporters are very upset about this banning of trump on twitter including some republicans as well and even some other people who have looked at this and and say is it right that big tech as it's called twitter instagram facebook that they can simply delete an account with the snap of a finger sensually people are worried about this sort of a slippery slope going on there but bottom line is twitter said that his tweets potentially could incite violence as it did with the with the riots at the capital and they said that they felt for safety reasons they just had to completely close his account but clearly he simply does don't know where he will be getting his message out going on going forward from here gabriel thank you and washington.
