primary in which south carolina did not choose the eventual nominee of the democratic party was when john edwards and john kerry ran. the only reason for that is john edwards was the native of south carolina. but south carolina has been the best indicator of who is eventually going to be the nominee of the democratic party. why is that the case? it is the case because democrats -- black voters have been the backbone of the democratic party. what happens in south carolina has a ripple effect. what happens in georgia, mississippi, alabama, and across the country where there is a significant african- american population, there is a statistic i love to use from national geographic that says 90% of african-americans in this country can trace at least one ancestor from south carolina. why is that? it's because 40% of enslaved people came through the port of charleston. it really is the glue for a lot of the african-american community. it has been the backbone of the democratic party. we have saved democracy as we saw in the last election, and south carolinian voters will continue to do that at the firs

edwards scandal . but next, former bbc scandal. but next, former bbc chief political correspondent john sergeant speaks about hugh edwards, the man johnl discuss that . on gb news, the people's. channel >> welcome back . and if you're >> welcome back. and if you're just joining us in a media bombshell story, hugh edwards has been named as the bbc presenter at the centre of the sex pics scandal, first reported by the sun newspaper on friday to react to this breaking news, i'm joined now by one of the biggest faces and names in the history of the bbc, their former chief political correspondent, john sergeant . john, can we talk john sergeant. john, can we talk about hugh edwards, the human being first, a man you know well? yes >> yes. i mean, i've known him as a friend and a colleague for more than 30 years. and when i first heard a few days ago that it was likely, if not known for certain that he was the suspect. >> presenter , i thought, well, >> presenter, i thought, well, this doesn't this doesn't match with my knowledge of him or my feelings about him because he was always so well , sensible and was always so well, sensible and coo

case we have talked about with republican governor, former governor in virginia, including with john edwardsnorth carolina. this man cuts corners. that is why he was chosen. we see the dorm report. evidence of widespread corruption at the fbi and doj against republicans and four democrats. you see this fantastic judge terry doughty, what he found when he did a serious review of the facts on the record and issued his lawyer. you saw the twitter files. you have seen how they treat fbi whistleblowers. the republicans in the house, you need to step up, too. you have been doing a good job. the senate under macconnell and schumer, forget about it. in the house, ag garland accused of lying under oath, committing perjury by one, but multiple former irs officials. he needs to be impeached. impeach with inquiry, mph with investigation and have the full review of what this attorney general has been doing. as in my view the mob lawyer for the biden administration. he still has not appointed special counsel to a point. david weiss just thumbed his nose at a house oversight committee and said, no, i will

can be bribery under your interpretation but he does not care, he is a hitman the case against john edwardsrth carolina, democrat presidential candidate accused of illegal campaign cash to conceal his mistress and love child and with a hung jury in a mistrial and the jury said wait a minute. how is that an illegal campaign contribution. it was not. first we have a supreme court that stops him then we have a jury that stops smith. he also prosecuted robert menendez many remember the case but you don't remember what happened in the case. he's a democrat and accused of taking bribes it collapsed it was a mistrial, again he took the bribery statue and read it so expensively that the jury said wait a minute that cannot be bribery and there's other cases to this effect involving the former new york assembly speaker sheldon silver who died in prison. when he loses cases he brings them again because this is what he knows. if you pile up enough charges against an individual he'll find injury somewhere, at least convict him of one. this is diabolical absolutely diabolical extremely dishonest individu

he was part of the prosecution of senator menendez, senator john edwards. are you saying that if he finds evidence of criminality he should not charge donald trump? >> what i am saying is when you are going after somebody on the other side of the political spectrum, if you are stressing statutes to try to criminalize or maybe politicized lyrical disagreements, that is wrong. i think we have gone down the road in this country of trying to criminalize differences of politics rather than saying you don't like somebody? defeat them in the election rather than trying to use the justice system. we do not know what will happen. i can tell you with the bragg one that was stretching criminal law. the evidence was weak and even if it existed, other people would not have been charged under those circumstances and that is the problem. >> let me just repeat what he said. i said do you think it jack smith finds evidence of criminality he should not charge trump? he said defeat them in the election rather than trying to use the justice system. caitlin, obviously the whole

i mean, he prosecuted or at least was part of the prosecution of senator menendez, senator john edwards. are you saying that if he finds evidence of criminality, he should not charge donald trump in any way? >> what i'm saying is when you're going after somebody on the other side of the political spectrum, if you're stretching statutes to try to criminalize political disagreements, that is wrong. this is all speculation. but i think we have gone down the road in this country of trying to criminalize differences and politics rather than saying okay, you don't like somebody? then defeat them in the election rather than trying to use the justice system. >> do you understand why trump's gop opponents are not seizing on his possible crimes? >> remember that i'm watching this as an american voter, but also as a floridian. so when i hear him talk about criminalizing agencies and how wrong it is, i can only think of my friends who owned in florida and are being dragged to court and are being criminal ides. they're trying to take their liquor license away. ron desantis has weaponized his agencie

to call him a partisan because he has prosecuted or been part of the prosecution team against john edwards, the democrat and senator bob menendez, a democrat, but those cases didn't go well for jack smith and his team and neither did his prosecution of the republican attorney general. >> which is why this should be led to play out in the justice system and not keep pushing this back and back. i want to comment on something you said, maria. the fact that most of them aren't standing up to trump, his republican opponents, and they're not taking advantage there's this potential cornucopia of indictments rolling out throughout this race, will they break because of the facts in one of these should they come down? really that will be a huge moment if they do. who's not a chris christie or asa hutchinson who have already weighed in. >> it's a legitimate point to bring up the overreach of the justice department. they don't have the best record in all cases. they're not holier-than-thou. and so, yes, the prosecutor's got to make his case. he's got to prove the facts, and i think the american people

all the subpoenas themselves are out for a political vendetta, even though jack smith prosecuted john edwards, garland was considered not liberal enough by many when he was picked the first time. so take a look at trump. >> i didn't know practically what a subpoena was and grand juries and all of this. now i'm becoming an expert. vi no choice, because we have to -- it's a disgrace. >> michael? >> it's laughable. how many guys has this dude -- times has this dude been sued? he didn't know what a subpoena is? i practically don't know what a subpoena is. that's the deflection lie. that's the, oh, my god, i'm just -- they're doing something to me i'm just so unfamiliar with, right? you are in new york real estate tycoon as you like to tell us, a billionaire. you mean to tell me in all the time you have been running your companies you never once received a subpoena? i think that's pretty well documented at this point. but here's the rub, very much to your point, it is how he wants to get out in front. he wants to continue to play the victim to that audience that eats it whole, completely digesting

prosecutor, former congressman david jolly, msnbc political analyst and former congresswoman, john edwards, and msnbc political analyst and washington columnist. washington post columnist. cynthia, let's begin with you. this is a grits for the mill for prosecutors looking at this. what are the implications of jack smith's team reaching out to all of the secretary of states around the country. does that say something about the idea of this investigation taking a wider scope than we first thought? >> i think we got for a long time the january six investigation is gonna be very broad because we are up here we are trying to bring the whole fake elector scandal. here is something really important i think our viewers can understand. as jack smith does these interviews, and he asks people like daryl kushner and others what was the president thinking, he doesn't have to think or prove that the president absolutely knew he had lost, and hit evidence that the president said to 15 people i know i lost, and then all this other stuff happened, that is not the corrupt attempt that is required. the inten

he prosecuted senator menendez, senator john edwards.aying that if he finds evidence of criminality he should not charge donald trump anyway? what i'm saying, when you are going after somebody on the other side of the political spectrum, if you are stretching statutes to try to criminalize political disagreements, that is wrong. now, look, this is all speculation. but i think we have gone down the road in this country of trying to criminalize differences in politics rather than saying, okay, you don't like don't like somebody, then defeat them in the election rather than trying to use the justice system. we don't know what's going to happen, but i can tell you with the bragg one that was stretching criminal law. the evidence of criminality was very weak and even if that existed, other people would not have been charged under those circumstances. that's the problem. >> what's striking to me, jake, about that answer is that he hasn't gotten it down to the 15 or 20-second elevator pitch. he's still working through it. >> yeah, i mean, it's

senator john edwards.that if he finds evidence of criminality he should not charge donald trump? any way? >> what i'm saying is, when you are going after somebody on the other side of the political spectrum, if you are stretching statutes to try to criminalize maybe political disagreements, that is wrong. now look, this is all speculation. but i think we've gone down the road in this country of trying to criminalize a differences in politics rather than saying, okay, you don't like somebody, then defeat them in the election rather than trying to use the justice system. we don't know what's going to happen, but i can tell you with the alvin bragg, one that was stretching criminal law. the evidence of criminality was very weak. and even if that existed, other people would not have been charged under those circumstances. that's the problem. >> nikki haley called the news a further distraction, while vivek ramaswamy said a dangerous precedent has been set. a critic of trunk, trump, chris christie, said trump,

as a partisan actor, jack smith has previously been part of the prosecution of democrats like john edwards. he stuck with this, it's basically just a republican talking point now, that they view the entire justice department as politicized. look, they look at some of the failures of the fbi, that have been acknowledged. when it comes to the russia investigation, against donald trump. and reforms that christopher wray made, even though you heard him say he was gonna fire christopher wray. you look at the charges or the lack of serious charges against hunter biden. this is a very popular view among republican voters. and i guess that that is where they feel all these republican presidential candidates with the three exceptions will hurt chris christie and ages hutchinson. you likely have to be. -- their voters are now skeptical of all charges of donald trump. apparently, cannot be convinced, even if there is evidence, even individuals like former -- bill barr, mark esper, saying that they think these are serious charges. >> i, mean fair criticism, is always fair. as you point out, the idea o

. >> jack smith has prosecuted democrats and part of the prosecution of senator menendez and john edwards. you are saying that he if finds evidence of criminality, he should not charge donald trump in any way. >> what i'm saying is when you're going after someone else on the other side of the political spectrum if you're stretching statues for political disagreements, that is wrong. this is all speculation. but i think eve gone down the road in this country trying to criminaliz criminalize differences in politics saying rather you don't like someone, then defeat them in the election rather than trying to use the justice system. so we don't know what will happen. but i could tell you, with the bragg one, that was stretching criminal law. the evidence of criminality was very weak and even if that existed, other people would not have been charged under the circumstances. that is the problem. >>> and we'll have much more with governor desantis in a minute. of course, an indictment in the january 6 case might be in mr. trump's future but the indictment in the classified documents case is vuery

to my former congress peeps, john edwards, charlie dan, thank you so much. >> coming up, folks, i have something to say about what arizona governor katie hobbs is doing to ensure women in her state have access to birth control. and frankly, why other governors should take note. stay with us. stay with us. for asthma driven by eosinophils. it's designed to target and remove them and helps prevent asthma attacks. fasenra is not for sudden breathing problems or other eosinophilic conditions. allergic reactions may occur. don't stop your asthma treatments without talking with your doctor. tell your doctor if your asthma worsens. headache and sore throat may occur. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. get back to better breathing. ask your doctor about fasenra. try killing bugs the worry-free way. not the other way. zevo traps use light to attract and trap flying insects with no odor and no mess. they work continuously, so you don't have to. zevo. people-friendly. bug-deadly. cut! another health insurance commercial, another aqua-aerobics scene. yup. most health insurance com

republican lawmakers had enough support to overturn a recent veto of the ban by democratic governor john bel edwards. the new law goes into effect january 1st. louisiana will join 20 other states that have already enacted laws restricting or banning things like hormone treatments and gender-reassignment surgery. in some cases, the bans have been blocked by federal judges a lgbtq group in minnesota is calling for a local mayor to resign after he made derogatory comments about a pride event being held in a town he posted a prayer on social media asking for wisdom ahead of pride month which he called a celebration of sin and brokenness he had also asked pastors at a church hosting a pride event if there would be stripper poles in the sanctuary. he did apologize and will meet with the lgbtq community this week >>> after a series of lethal intection mishaps last year, an alabama prisoner is set to be put to death on thursday unless an appeals court intervenes james barber, on death row for the death of a homeowner named dorothy epps says is he skeptical about the ability to carry out the procedure. detai

like, but it was pretty clear to most people that it was going to be obama, hillary clinton and john edwards was also in this mix at that point. joe biden was running. he was taking somewhat seriously, but somewhat is operative word there. i mean, he really was polling that well. he thought he was going to be a serious candidate basically as soon as he said this and the new york observer published it, that was the end of his campaign. he kept running a while, but his donors pulled out, said, actually, i don't know about this. you know, obama saw this and sort of couldn't believe that he had said it, but he made it quite he said, you know, i don't think this guy's a racist. i think he misspoke. i think, you know, this is obviously not great. but obama want to get into this topic already. he knew that he was going to have to address his race in a very serious way later on in primary. and he didn't want it to be not on his own terms. so he and biden talked. biden apologized. but politically speaking, from that point, it was fairly clear that biden was going to be more or less an afterthought as

hey, the same john edwards from lincoln. i believe so, yes. and secondly, could you speak? there are a lot of stories that president kennedy just sneak a bunch of mistresses into the white house. going to ask about whether i would do something, you know, it's not it's not really. yeah. you did say that before a class. i can certainly recommend books if you'd like to read those. but generally speaking, i don't get too bogged down in personal lives. he started the trend with the interns. i guess. did you? so that was your question to him. i mean, my own personal opinion is that i don't feel maryland now, okay, now we're wandering into crazy. so let's we'll pull it back a little. what it was is people know, oh, then it must be true. oh, it was. it was in cnn. it must be true. it was it was in washington post. it must be true what i what i'm my point is and what i want you to take from this class is that you should always be asking questions. you should always looking at evidence. don't just accept something at face value because. it's put out by this media or this historian. y

. >> i want to ask you quick before we let you go on friday louisiana governor john bel edwards, a democrat anti-lgbt legislation. including what critics say is the states version of florida's don't say gay bill. as well as the baton gender-affirming care for trans youth. the legislature is expecting to try and override the veto? but what does it say about the general climate of the country but the importance of state and local elections? >> it's a sad state affair when elected leaders some of whom it didn't graduate from college, some that didn't go to meta school, take a hippocratic oath are affecting the decision that should otherize be made between a patient and the case of children and their parents and of medical providers. the sad reality is gender-affirming care has been publicly available in the ways that are familiar to most for the last decade. it's only recently that the radical right wing party republican party has decided to make this a solution in search of a problem. what we know is that this is affecting children in the mental health and well-being. we are seeing increased

. >> well, big mike, democratic governor john bel edwards said the bill needless.nly harms a very small population of vulnerable childrenpo their familiesen and their health care professionals. i expect the courts to throw this out as unconstitutional. >> your reaction? ounal.? rnor quickly >> well, i think he needs to get some of the evidence that i got wheton. i ran the bill two years ago because there was a lot of trauma going on. i got a lot of emails coming in begging me to make sure thisemai bill passels bs. that's why i worked so hard this session when it gotard on through the house. it got killed in the senate again, and i went to my senatesn president and asked him, can i please get it in another committee? he said, if you get the votes on the floor, i'll make it happen. >> and that's what we did. all right, bigand that i my, grt to see. >> i'm glad you survived the trauma of that voicemail. prisedthe left is always so tol, though, right? conservativeo tos, the main oneu that's it for us tonight. we had a great first week at 7 p.m.. thank you for spending

i especially want to recognize john bel edwards for a moment and pay tribute to this fantastic an incredible colleague whom you a mystery as he retired from public service at the end of this year. we've had an opportunity to work very closely with them and again in a bipartisan fashion. and he is the preeminent example of what it means to be a true american and a great governor in this country. governor edwards is a democrat. i'm a republican but would both represent states that a highly dependent on the energy economy and he has been again a remarkable partner working on those issues and so many others. i'm proud of his influence. have an edwards could not be here this week. we are happy to see first lady donna was been with us whose own service a leadership has been such a benefit to the nga and our work over the years. thank you donna. with so much fun. we had an amazing dinner. we all ate way too much less that the worksite of you and your husband now that you getting back after all of these years, and we know you have a grandchild on the weight and just great things happening. we're so

john saratoga now? he's an interesting character in this. no indication whatsoever about race. where i found out was later on at the end of the war. is that edward chin? who was the pay master of the regiment put in the paperwork saying that all monies do to john saratoga were to go to him for he is my slave for life. so here we know that we had so kate's munford was a free person of color and then we've got john saratoga who is an enslaved person both serving in the regiment on the roles major john taylor from virginia brought an enslaved. servant with him and registered him into the regiment so that he was getting then rations and pay through his enslaved servant. so we do know that they were there there were other accounts for putnam's regiment at one point about like 27 men and hazen's regiment was part of putnam's regiment and they said there were 27 african-american with the regiment at that time. some of them were probably in hazen's regiment. but so i was really trying to track him down but i i found it. very interesting. they did not make that designator. and what does that mean that they are not making that designator on these troops?
