the host of the charles coleman podcast.ll very much for spending part of your saturday evening with me. clare, your reaction to that stunning back and forth between trump's lawyer and the member of the appeals court. >> well, i'm ashamed to say he is from missouri. i'm ashamed that. well frankly, and the right has to be very disappointed, maga has to be very disappointed, because they have been peddling to america that all of the ivy league schools are hotbeds of socialism and communism, and brainwashing to the progressive left. this guy is a harvard law grad, how embarrassing for harvard law school for him to make the kind of arguments he did, clearly the people who drafted the constitution did not have in mind that someone could be president, commit murder, mayhem, and rob and in bezel. and all he has to do is hold on to 35 votes in the senate, or just resign, before they have a chance to impeach, up and he goes scot-free. that is ludicrous on its face, and embarrassing for any lawyer. i don't care if you are an intern ri

i'm charles coleman junior, filling in for my friend and colleague, ali velshi. and we've got a lot to talk about. we start this morning with the trials of donald trump. now he's had his day in court, and just like that, he's been ordered by a jury of his peers to pay 83 point $3 million to e. jean carroll for repeatedly defaming her. and how does he respond to this? of course, he went to vegas. the campaign valley, and we can have before that was replete with a typical vitriol, hatred, and lies, that we've come to expect in the twice impeached, multiplied republican front runner. however, instead of focusing on his primary part in nikki haley, trump largely directed as verbal assault president joe biden. now this is understandable, and it actually makes more sense for his political economy. primary season may have just begun, but let's be real. this primary race is pretty much all but over. president joe biden is going to be the democratic nominee, and donald trump is almost certainly going to win the republican nomination. this comes after he decisively won iow

charles coleman is back with me.hinking do a bunch of lawyers have a pool on when any of these trials get going. >> that would be a good one. you're talking about someone an this, but part of it that people need to understand is that there's been a significant delay in terms of charging him because of the thoroughn these investigations. you don't necessarily see something wrong on y 6th and indict and arrest the president on january 8. these are the results of very very detailed and layered investigations that have gotten to the facts and given prosecutors the evidence that they need to build these cases, and that's how these things have moved forward. >> is part of building the case, even though we're looking primarily at the criminal cases, right, watching what's happening in the manhattan courtroom today. are there lessons to be learned, things to watch. are there changes in strategy that lawyers might consider watching what's happening now? >> well, i think more of that is going to be around the technical aspects

nbc news and msnbc legal analyst and host of the charles coleman podcast.ght, my friend, let's get into this. because the supreme court has sent a lightning fast timeline for trump's ballot appeal. what, if anything, do you read into that? what, if a>> alex, i think the e court understands the urgency of the situation in that they have to bring some level of clarity to this 14th amendment issue. they're the only ones who can do. it may also understand that, as these primaries continue to take place in primary season, it's imperative that they sort of sort this out so we don't end up with a more complicated situation down the road, as we previously talked about with ryan, there are a bunch of differences between the states and how they all handle these elections, and who can be on the ballot and how challenges are initiated. so, the supreme court is really going to be the final arbiter in terms of making sure that all of the rules are essentially the same, and whatever the decision is around donald trump being on the ballot's final and allows the electorate

i'm charles coleman junior, in for my friend and colleague illegal she. now the next primary is less than a week away in south carolina, where donald trump is likely to humiliate nikki haley in her own home state. if you are keeping score at home, haley is the former governor of the state, it is expected to take a considerable l in her own backyard. but while their why -- might not be much suspense, there is not a crucial state. and there's a lot where we can learn see take place. it's the first primary state where the the goal be a significant factor. and that's what president biden must travel is going to be down trump in november. nbc's erin gilchrist has more. >> i don't come here to tell you who to vote for. i came here to tell you who you must not vote for. >> reporter: south carolina congressman jim clyburn from an 80 church pulpit last week, targeting former president donald trump, blasting his comments about the country's first black president, and accusing him of wanting to make medication more expensive. >> there are forces at work that are att

. >> joining us now, msnbc legal analyst charles coleman, to help us understand this. play in the outcome? did he help or hurt himself? >> well, jonathan, in the long run, i do think that he hurt himself. i think that what he was trying to do was force the judge into a position where, by denying him an opportunity to speak, he would have created an issue for appeal for himself. judge engoron basically gave him the rope, and he hung himself, predictably. what he ended up doing was creating a space where this is one less issue for an appeal. he would go back and say, "i was treated unfairly and my rights were violated in some form or fashion." kudos to the judge. it was a calculated risk by the bench. he understood there was a risk this could happen, but, ultimately, it didn't play a factor in the way donald trump wanted it to. >> there is $370 million penalty that the state general wants to impose, and it'll prevent trump from doing business in new york state. he hopes to make his decision by january 31st. talk about the process the judge now has to go through and what

charles coleman with back with me. here in studio, valerie castro.re can you tell us about this fourth victim? >> maureen brainerd barnes was killed in 2007. her body was recovered in 2010. the same time the other bodies were recovered. at the time of her murder, she was a sex worker in manhattan, but her family say he was so much more. a reader, a writer and a mother to two children. told, we heard from her sister and her daughter, who's never spoken publicly before. >> i was only 7 years old when my mother was murdered. her loss drastically changed the trajectory of my life. there are countless times i needed her and she was not there. i remember she read to me every night and now i can in longer remember the sound of her voice. >> it has been 16 years since the last time i saw my sister. 16 years since i heard her voice. because 16 years ago, she was silenced. losing maureen has became a wound that never truly heals. it remains a part of me. maureen was a mother of two. amazing children and they will forever be without their mother. >> and we shou

adam reese and charles coleman jr., it's been a wild night. thank you. >>> we're continuing to follow tonight's breaking news. the u.s. and uk strike houthi rebels in the red sea. sorry, in yemen. >>> coming up on "the reidout," haley and desantis continue their sad battle for second place behind trump who is too busy bragging about destroying a woman's right to make her own reproductive decisions to even notice. "the reidout" continues after this. - "best thing i've ever done." that's what freddie told me. - it was the best thing i've ever done, and- - really? - yes, without a doubt! - i don't have any anxiety about money anymore. - great people. different people, that's for sure, and all of them had different reasons for getting a reverse mortgage, but you know what, they all felt the same about two things: they all loved their home, and they all wanted to stay in that home. and they all wanted to stay in that home. - [announcer] if you're 62 or older and own your home, you could access your equity to improve your lifestyle. a reverse mortga

i'm charles coleman junior in this evening for alicia menendez. we begin this hour with breaking news out of capitol hill. congress has reached a spending bill for 2024. now, the deal establishes an overall spending limit of 1.59 trillion dollars for the fiscal year. congresses currently facing its first chant -- deadline of january 15th -- joins us now from capitol hill with the latest. good evening, julia. help us break this down. this 1.59 trillion dollar deal. >> well, it depends who you ask when it comes to breaking down the steel. when speaker johnson put out his memo to colleagues breaking it down, he said that there would be 886 billion dollars for defense spending and 704 billion dollars in non defense spending. now when democrat leader jeffries and leader schumer put out their statement, they noted that it's 77billion dollars in spending. there's a bit of a discrepancy because of a 69 billion lls called aside car by the democrats that wasn't the orin mccarthyspeaker mccarthy deal, with the biden white house. it mightake you a while to re

msnbc legal analyst charles coleman is back with me. then they don't get a reason. but i want to play some of what he said during the vote about what he sees as the importance of this bill. take a listen. >> only investigative conversations tied to the possibility of crime are required to be reported. if these laws were in place in 1989, i vote aye. >> as a prosecutor who has worked closely with police, what could be the impact of this? >> chris, the significance of this measure cannot be overstated. and i can answer as a prosecutor, but i also have to answer as a black man who has been stopped by the police in new york city. so you can't approach nypd on this conversation with a modicum of good faith. we have seen it ruled that stop and frisk is illegal, and we have seen stop and frisk as a manner of getting from a level one search to a level three search, and what that means is we have a basic stop, and try and see if anything else is amiss that we can get probably cause and arrest off of. because we have this history, this is a very

joining me now, msnbc legal analyst, charles coleman.is a former brooklyn new york prosecutor, now a civil rights attorney, and host of the charles coleman podcast. a really good friend to us. let's get into, does charles. this divorce case, it does not materially affect the criminal prosecution of trump and his codefendants. is this affair that is being allowed to spill over? or will the divorce judge, and the criminal judge, are they going to see it as a defense tactic, dragging these kind of salacious allegations just in an attempt to muddy the legal waters? >> alex, that's exactly what this is. that is exactly what we're looking at. the defense in this case is going to use everything that they can, that's at their disposal, to try and distract from the actual facts, and the merits of the case against donald trump. i said at the beginning, of all these cases, that we are going to get a first row seat and insight into how all the different ways the legal system, works and what the tactics that attorneys can use to try to avoid doing wi

msnbc legal analyst charles coleman joins us now. he's a former brooklyn prosecutor. lese things. but before we get there, in the debate tonight there was a interesting exchange on crime. i want to play ron desantis free while. and we will discuss it any other aunt. >> the lamb riots in the summer 2020, when i saw that happening in minneapolis and florida i called out the national guard. we had state law enforcement deployed. we said we're not burning down your cities and you know what, it didn't happen. he sat in the white house and tweeted law and order. but he did nothing to endure law and order. as your president i will never let our cities burn. you have every right to stop this runaway rioting. in fact you have a duty. nikki haley and i have a disagreement on the blm stuff as well. she tweeted during this period of time that the death of george floyd should be, quote, personal and painful for each and every american. but people in iowa had nothing to do with that, or florida, or south carolina. she was virtue signaling to the left. she was accepting the narrative

former new york prosecutor and civil rights attorney charles coleman. giles, winning contribute to cbs news monday morning, and now editor at large for news week. let's start with iowa. max, i turn to. you your biggest take away. any surprises with all this turnout? >> sometimes things are just simple, and donald trump, what we are seeing is, he is leading incredibly amongst one demographic, and that is republicans. >> far-right christian evangelical republicans. >> i wish that were true. i wish that were true, but donald trump is now showing where the republican party is, not the independents and moderates. and never before in the history of modern american politics have we seen such a divergence between where a political party is and where the majority of the american population, the american voter base is. her only nikki haley's only chance of new hampshire, and she's gonna lose, that is independent. and as soon as they move to a place where only republicans vote, i don't care where it is, donald trump will win by resounding margin, because at this p

and former new york prosecutor and civil rights attorney charles coleman, also here, also an msnbc legal teamed up with correspondent jermaine lee for an msnbc special called black men in america: the road to 2024. you can catch it this sunday, starting at nine pm eastern, right here on msnbc. charles, let's start with you. the action, all that we've heard from carole since the verdict? >> well, symone, i think that we have we've heard from miss carroll is very important in terms of framing the narrative around this cloak of invincibility that donald trump has maintained thus far. and i know that people will say, well, he's been indicted. he's been impeached. where are you coming from with respect to this cloak of invincibility? it's because he's never actually been held accountable. this is the first time that we've seen something to the point of a verdict. we will see, the second time, when judge engoron enters his order at the conclusion of the new york civil trial which we just referenced. this is the very first instance that were actually seeking donald trump's armor finally appears

from manchester, new hampshire, and also with us former federal prosecutor kristy greenberg and charles colemanth this primary calendar, how complicated is this collision with his legal schedule going to get? >> good morning, guys. look, the results last night definitely lightened up the demands of the campaign schedule for him, at least in these immediate months with confidence from the trump team they are in a strong position here and don't have too much to worry about with nikki haley, they have the ability to really hone in and focus more on some of these legal ends. alina habba, of course, his attorney not only in the civil fraud trial in which we are awaiting a rule from judge engoron by likely early february, but also his attorney in the e. jean carroll defamation suit, she was up on stage last night with donald trump here, and so that is where we have seen very much almost in a way the legal and the campaign working in tandem here. of course we expect donald trump to be back in manhattan at the thursday after, of course, the trial was canceled today as well. donald trump may very well s

i want to bring in legal analyst charles coleman, also listening into the argument, and what is your reaction to what ryan said, and donald trump was most attentive when there was discussion about how he is the leading candidate in the polls? >> i would love to say that legally this is something that donald trump was interested in, but at the end of the day we all know this is something that plays directly to donald trump's ego, and as somebody embattled politically and legally, this is good news he has to look forward to, because if he's sitting in the hearing and listening to the argument and the questions being asked by the panel, he has to understand he's up against a significant hurdle trying to get judge chutkan's original decision overturned. >> one thing we heard from trump in a video overnight, charles, was that, one, this is election interference, and he's trying to get the charges dismissed and rally his base behind him politically, and maybe the legal argument here is that the actions he took looking for voter fraud, no evidence of that, and there were legal pathways to g
