. >> john: also our legal panel, jonathan turley and kent starr joining us. should even move forward, whether it is constitutional to have an impeachment trial for a president who is no longer in office. >> that's right. you've got the constitutionality question. this came up two weeks ago. there was a vote 55-45. five republicans went with the democrats to say this is constitutional and should move forward. you're likely to see that split again. they'll make the case, the republicans will, that you cannot impeach a former official. however, it is the impeachment happened while president trump was president. this is the trial portion of it. democrats will still plow through and likely you're going to have a vote that breaks about the same way that it did two weeks ago. >> sandra: you look at the impeachment element of this that jonathan turley talked about and i'm sure he'll bring up in our coverage today. that's one of the big questions. this is a political process, not a legal process, to impeach a sitting public official. the president is no longer a sitti

. >> martha: ken starr, we spoke on a podcast that everybody can listen to, that will be out tomorrow, when you look at the fast that justice john roberts is not participating in this. isn't that in a way a supreme court decision on the legitimacy of this process, the fact that he has abstained from participate something. >> it's yet another indicator of the unconstitutionality. the president was impeach before but they sat on the article, wouldn't take the time to walk it over. we know why. they didn't want the chief justice of the united states to preside. you can say they were getting ready for trial. if you impeach, it is ebb -- equivalent to an indictment. they were not ready to go. they allowed president trump to as it were retire from office in a course dance with law. he goes away and only then when he's in mar-a-largo do they say, okay, we can now march it over because guess what? the chief justice isn't going to preside. it would be unconstitutional for chief justice john roberts to preside over the trial of a former president of the united states. >> martha: senator leahy presiding and acts an a juror. k.t., one final

starr live at the pentagon. and this is seen as the first military action from the biden administration, at least that we know of, barbara. >> absolutely right, john. the first one from joe biden as commander in chief. and something that very much will be noticed around the world as people begin to assess him as that commander in chief. ordering the strikes yesterday, against this encampment, said to be a weapons storage facility in syria, just over the iraqi border. a site used by iranian-backed militias, which used these iranian-supplied weapons, according to the u.s., and they have launched a number of their rocket attacks against u.s. interests and u.s. troops inside iraq in recent days. all of this leading to president biden ordering a response and defense secretary lloyd austin talking to reporters about how they came to the decision. >> we're confident that that target was being used by the same shia militia that conducted the strikes. we allowed and encouraged the iraqis to investigate and develop intelligence and that was very helpful to us in refining the target. >> and the biden administration, the pentagon, taking pains to call this a

john: you get some of the senators by their eyes and hair. jonathan turley, george washington university law professor and ken starr former independent counsel. his filing, president trump contends conviction at an impeachment trial requires the possibility of removal from office without that possibility there cannot be a trial. is he right, jonathan? >> well, this is a very close question, even those of us who have resolved it on one side or the other. depends what your national default is. you have to go with the text of the constitution which being the removal of the president in a trial presided by the chief justice of the united states. you'll notice the person who's presiding is not john roberts, because they're not trying the president of the united states. perhaps the gold standard of the meaning of the constitution, commentary when the constitution was signed, said you cannot impeach a former official. >> john: hold on there for a second. >> sandra: the senate has now come to order. let's dip in and listen. >> the words of the new england poet james russell lowell, to provide our senate jurors with just one perspective. lowell wrote,
