3:02 pm
dangerous what you're doing that tyrant president they want to cancel the president he is a clear and present danger to the nation that we all love houses action today will only extend the division longer than necessary let's come together impeach the president for this high crime against the republic you don't merely seek victory but you seek obliteration of your nemesis and it's now up to the senate to decide whether to indict trump on charges of inciting and so rection despite democratic party calls for urgency it seems that votes will not take place before the president leaves office on january the 20th but that doesn't mean trump won't be affected by it as the decision could ban him from ever running for office again law experts charles rose explains how this could all determine trump's long term future . since he will have already concluded his term what conviction in the senate would
3:03 pm
do is open the door to an additional vote on a majority basis only determine whether or not he would be banned from. future public office i think the odds are very high that that goal would be successful if the larger hurdle is 1st accomplished of an actual conviction in the son in the state prosecutions if they make it to trial there's absolutely no bar he can't be pardoned for it at the federal level and if the state of new york for instance were to decide that they were going to proceed forward with indictment in trial he would get his day in court just like any of the defendant on the federal potential federal charges is going to come down to whether or not president truck chooses to do something that no president has ever done attempt to solve part of which he's actually been advised not to by every legal advisor that he's raise the issue whom
3:04 pm
he doesn't accept so or if he does not sell 40 i think the odds are actually lower that he will be prosecuted federally if you sell ford and he's actually challenging the validity of a cell phone by the president and i suspect is that the united states is not going to be interested in allowing someone to commit crimes and then pardon themselves or boy al gore if he so far didn't see almost guarantees a federal prosecution to resolve their costs or. washington d.c. is currently ramping up security measures ahead of biden's inauguration is prompted by the failure of more riots following last week's storming of the capitol by trying to support as the president says those involved will be punished and promised a peaceful transition that there is never a justification for violence those who engaged in the attacks last week will be brought to justice in washington d.c. we are bringing in thousands of national guard members. to secure the city and
3:05 pm
ensure that a transition code occurs safely and without incident the efforts to said sure cancel and blacklist our fellow citizens are wrong and they are dangerous transplant 1st hand experience they've been shut out of the online conversation now while the internet giants are continuing to purge the president from their platforms with snap chat the latest to issue a permanent ban trump's businesses are also being targeted in the backlash right now see if takes a closer look. undermining an elected president you don't like is called politics just how things are censoring him and denying the president a voice that's just plain petty that's that's what it's called and then to go after his business interests just out of spite that's out and out council culture
3:06 pm
the politically correct acceptable face of hatred here to announce that the city of new york is severing all contracts with the trump organization if a company and the leadership of that company is engaged in criminal activity but we have the right to sever the contract it's happening on every level local governments like new york which now has a problem with trump running the local caris sells and ice rings business is also appointing him towards the door shutting down his online stores for example even the banks of bailing out ruling out future ties on trouble accounts worth millions we witnessed the president of the united states encouraging the roads is a new freedom from call in the in the national guards to protect the congress seen these before. violence has no place in our society and the scenes that we witnessed are a shame on the whole nation. the sports world is no exception to add insult to injury
3:07 pm
they do enough to trump's passion is golf and part of the professional golf of the subsea asian is stripping the president's cherished bedminster golf course of who stayed in the 2022 p.g.a. championship which trump has apparently spent millions preparing for but that's the price of going against the flow nowadays if you don't say what people like to hear you're going to have a bad heart. it will just be you your nearest and dearest get sucked in to and pretty much everyone who depends on you will live in the age of cancel culture but this isn't something the start of this week it is something that they have been doing to us and others for years if you disagree with them if they don't like you they try and cancel you. trump's presidency was undoubtedly divisive this is
3:08 pm
a person you either hate who you love you may feel that he deserves all of this you may feel it's are justified but you can't deny that he's left to mock that he was the president or well turns out you can add i'm working on a bill that would mean that nothing not even the bench no airport no highway no school nothing ever bad the name of this traitor it's about pure hate the social media driven revenge and this is the lowest level of any kind of political discourse that i have ever see it's not in any way surprising that these groups because they don't have a real arguments are going to try to sort of go around the thing it's kind of like if you're in a debate with a person where you have no chance of winning a debate you just turn off the electricity so that nobody has a microphone that's what we're seeing over here when you treat the other side as if they're not just people that you disagree with but people who you view as your
3:09 pm
enemy you will make them your enemy and right now the democrats have made themselves 74000000 enemies maybe even more than that i don't know and when you do that you create divides in the country you create hostility you create violence and we have not seen the end of this this is not something being created by trump's the bastard this is something else something being created by the fact that so many people feel silenced and deep platforms by left wing media both social and traditional the man behind the social network that was taken offline during the why the backlash against donald trump says his platform may never return policy out the full force of the it's nest gate keepers when it was dropped from apple and google also app store was amazon then pulled the plug on hosting the service on its service saying it had been warning about violence content the months paul. although sold itself as a free speech platform became a haven for outspoken conservatives many of whom had already been booted off

twitter and facebook but the decision by big tech to silence paula has caused shivers on both sides of the political divide his party boy care. be honest but not too honest because that is dangerous nowadays do you like me feel so bits of shodan for oil or maybe you just saw my old or chuckled to yourselves when you heard the donald trump had been permanently kicked off twitter yet to quote everyone's favorite prostitute. you big mistake huge so on the face of it trump was banned for the glorification of violence but banning a sitting president from twitter feels a little bit like the thin end of the way just because loads of liberals agree with it and love the fact that it's happened doesn't mean that it's right and in fact
3:11 pm
risks us all sleepwalking into 19 eighty-four apparently twitter was compelled to ban the orange one for his rabble rousing michelle obama express to her discussed his monstrous behavior which suggests that the trial could have been colored with a touch of political motivation running a sitting president no matter what he says feels. problematic especially when all the tech giants have just donated money to joe biden's welcome back to the white house party but all that was ok because 3 days ago anyone. would have just said well that's where i'll just go to paul or instead of being big again big mistake huge huge you could have had these 2 alternate echo

3:24 pm
current trump administration is reportedly planning to slap a final round of sanctions on iraq therms involved in north stream to construction claim the project will see russia dominates europe's energy market and leaves the e.u. at moscow's mercy some companies have already bowed to american pressure including the danish engineering consultancies roundball even so work in the danish baltic sea zone is still planning to get going again on friday when completed nordstrom's who could double the amount of russian gas delivered directly into europe or there are doubts in germany to one northern state m.p.'s says russian gas is just part of europe supply story and that the critics are contradicting themselves. if you could be seen with the critics who say europe doesn't need north stream to the same ones talking about how the pipeline will make us dependent on russian gas but that doesn't make sense if it plays no role whatsoever in europe's gas supply we can't
3:25 pm
fall under russia's influence so these critics should really make up their mind i think we'll have more demand for gas in the near future and not just russian gas from norway and the netherlands to the north stream to be part of this reliable gas supply of course our main goal is to become self-sufficient through renewable energy but that will take time we can't do it instantly. shoppers in northern ireland are finding rows of empty shelves in grocery stores and brags it's being blamed it's 2 weeks since britain totally cut the cord with the e.u. but new restrictions were also imposed on goods being shipped from mainland u.k. to northern ireland where it is britain's only land border with the e.u. bosses of the big supermarket chains have now publicly issued an urgent plea for the government to sort out the red tape. we recognise the european commission needs to seen compliance to support the concessions granted through the northern ireland protocol but the current proposals increased bureaucracy and certification in such
