he cited writings by the harvard law professor laurence h. tribe to bolster's argument that the deadlines and procedures in the electoral count act are unconstitutional, and that state electoral votes need not be finalized until congress's certification on january 6th. he had worked as his research assistant as a law student, and later helped him and his representation of vice president al gore during the 2000 election. calling his former mentor a key biden supporter and fervent trump critic. mr. chesebro cited what he described as mr. trump's legal views, along with writing as by several liberals as potential fodder for a messaging strategy. it would be the height of hypocrisy for democrats to resist january 6th as the real deadline or to suggest that trump and pence would be doing anything to -- he wrote, joining us now is professor laurence tribe, teaching constitutional at harvard law school for five decades. mr., triborane the middle of tonight's breaking news story. i know you've had time to read it. what is your reaction to what you ha

professor laurence tribe is back with us.qualification clause and how is that clause activated? >> the clause was put in the constitution to make sure of those people who attempt to overthrow the federal government, and its processes, not just the confederate grapples -- but it was a permanent part of the constitution. the people who tried to overthrow the constitution of the united states, orchid a or comfort to the enemies of the united states, have taken an oath to uphold the constitution, could never again hold office. it was not a punishment. it had nothing to do with being prosecuted. in fact the people who wrote that, wrote it at a time when andrew johnson was the presidents, no longer abraham lincoln, and they didn't think that andrew johnson's justice department which was very much on the side of the confederates would prosecute anybody. the idea was that just as you have to be a natural born citizen, just as you have to be at least 35 years old and a resident of the united states for 14 years, you also have to be so

i don't think we've signed a paul laurence dunbar book yet, but we need to. he's really the first great modern black poet, although he lived a very short life. how do you match topics with authors. well, partly that comes from the author telling us what they want to do. their author just coming forward and saying, i would to write about so-and-so. and we say, all right, do a proposal on that. and then sometimes say, can you tweak that proposal and maybe take it a little bit? not direction or where are you finding the evidence on this in the material and on? but sometimes we sit around and we have our zoom meetings and we just kind of dream up topics and then skip or jackie or, or i come up with, well, you know, who might write that or? you know, who might write that? and also, now the press is the series is now more and more widely. the press actually gets proposed and submitted directly to them, to the editors at press. so in other words, ideas for the series can come in through the regular, so to speak. but in many ways, the authors already are matching the

c., that was about howard law professor laurence tribe reveal last night, special prosecutor jack smith has obtained a december six 2020 memo that the january six committee did not discover. that so-called legal memo, written by a former student of professor tribe's, now appears to be one of a sequence of memos that contained the origin of what jack smith is calling a criminal conspiracy to defraud, united states in a conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. 23 years ago, professor tribe worked as an appeals lawyer for vice president al gore in the historic supreme court case of bush versus gore, which ended up deciding the presidential election of the year 2000. kenneth chesebro was one of the research assistants at harvard law school helping professor tribe prepare the case. in a series of moments written by chesebro beginning on november 18th, he advocated what was now seen as the fake electors scheme identified by jack smith indictment of donald trump. in the first version of the memo, chesebro advocated creating republican electors in states won by joe biden just in case dona

and a messaging strategy that cited the work of his former harvard constitutional law professor, laurenceofessor tribe is gonna join us in just a moment. but chesebro once worked as tribes research assistant while he was a law student. and later helped him represent al gore during the 2000 election. the times reports that enamel, and a previous memo drafted weeks earlier, chesebro quoted a clause from a law review article, by mr. trump about bush v. gore, asked for supports that only real, only real legal deadline is january the 6th. in an essay published this week on the legal website jus ofessor tribe says chesebro, quote, relied on a gross misrepresentation of my scholarship. i think that chesebro was citing my work in support of the very opposite conclusion to undercut the constitutional status of the electoral counts act. professor of constitutional law at harvard university, lawrence tribe joins me now. first, drive it is great to see you again. thanks for coming back. back on the show. we can't speak to a better person about this than you. as i mentioned, kenneth chesebro played a

you know, laurence olivier was the last white actor to play othello, and he did it in 1965. and he did it in blackface. and he played a black man brilliantly. am i being told that i will never have a chance to play a black man? is someone else being told that if they're not jewish, they shouldn't play the merchant of venice? are we crazy? do we not know that art is art? this is so patronizing. it's so thoughtless, and treating people like children. - do you think there's a difference between the question of representation and who is allowed to represent other groups? for example, as you said, somebody representing the merchant of venice, and the case of blackface explicitly in this country given the history of slavery and the sensitivities around black racism. do you think there's a difference between those? - there shouldn't be. - why? - because it's patronizing. because it says that we're so fragile that we can't have our feelings hurt. we have to anticipate having our feelings hurt, our children's feelings. we don't know how to stand up and bop the bully in the face. - do

jill, constitutional scholars michael luttig, and laurence tribe are making the argument that trump isible to become president again because of the 14th amendment, because it states anyone who gives aid and comfort to an insurrection cannot hold public office. quote, the former presidents efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, and the resulting attack on the capitol, place him squarely within the ambit of the disqualification clause. and he is therefore ineligible to serve as president ever again. the most pressing constitutional question facing our country at this moment, then, is whether we will be able to abide by this clear command of the 14th amendments disqualification clause. i wonder, jill, if you agree. >> how could you disagree with two eminent constitutional scholars like laurence tribe and judge luttig? i think that they have made a very persuasive case. they have laid it out very clearly, setting out why they think it is self executing. in the past, people have said, oh, you can't bar him unless he is convicted of a crime of insurrection. they make a very conv

. >> what a remarkable conversation we just had with laurence tribe and michael luttig. the way just days away from the first republican debate of the 2024 primary season. i wonder if there's some people in that season who would like to see the 14th amendment section three invoked in donald trump not be the candidate because he might not be qualified to be the president of the united states. but the most popular candidate among all right now is donald trump. he will not be there on wednesday. he said he is skipping the offense. rick tyler joins me now, a former national spokesperson for the ted cruz 2016 presidential campaign, longtime friend of mine. he is got experience preparing candidates for debates. but in 2016, he played donald trump in a mock debate with ted cruz. thank you for being here. it's not often you anti get to -- and you want. it is not often that you and i get to spend time together. i want to pick up on the little of that conversation i just had with luttig and tribe. who say, and they said is up to the people who put the president candidates name on

laurence olivier by the way, there are a lot of discussions among american film critics, in particular , what to do with these films because, on the one hand, they are usually classics, on the other hand, black face is not acceptable. and if we are talking about another question asked by bradley cooper: why are you not a jew playing a jew? this is a very difficult question because, on the one hand , anyone can play anyone, as i have already said in a normal film process, and if we will. if the directors, producers will select the actors and actresses by a huge number coincide with their character, then i am afraid that it is possible to not pick them up because of the appearance of the nationality . jewish art, well as far as i can tell, they have always been fairly widely represented in artistic circles and among musicians, among actresses. there have always been a lot of jews. although of course i could be wrong here, they are now advocating that why is it not a jew playing a jew, but uh this problem manifests itself much more brightly in the community of transgender actresses and ac

for a conversation about casting choices, but let's face it, we are a long way from the days of laurencew playing an afghan warlord in carry on up the khyber. here's the issue with leonard bernstein, there seem to be two parts to it — one is the wearing of a prosthetic nose. now, leonard bernstein, as his family said, did have a generous nose and bradley cooper has chosen to adopt a prosthetic nose. and there is backstory for that. i mean, actors do wear prostheses in order to play real—life characters. we had gary oldman playing winston churchill with prostheses. daniel day—lewis added extra nose and chin to play abraham lincoln. and of course, famously, nicole kidman played virginia woolf by adding a prosthetic nose and won an oscar. as her presenter said at the time, denzel washington, "winning by a nose." i'm not a huge fan of prosthetic noses, i think they're distracting for audiences. but who knows, maybe it's a big part of maestro. we don't know because we haven't seen the film yet. it is already being talked about, though. this is one of the top stories on the bbc website today.

laurence tribe had then tweeted the tweet you see on your screen or the x whatever you call p t.hat chris christie is legally injured by trum's name being on the ballot. but if it's real impact christie seeks a better move might be to first ask a secretary of state to remove trump. then judge luttig tweeted on top of that to say maybe chris christie and asa hutchinson could get together and seek legal judgment. i guess this is the throw the spaghetti at the wall portion of this discussion, david. it may not be elegant and perfect but we're now a few years into this thing and nobody's got an answer for the question what is donald trump. >> that's right. and look, inelegant is probably the right word but it is absolutely a worthwhile effort. and that's the important thing here. at some point you have to create a finding of fact by somebody. you would like that to be by a court but it could be by a secretary of state. how do you get a finding of fact? typically it is not self-executed. it is because somebody petitions to an administrative or legal body. so in this case chris christi

i'd never heard of either the phrase �*ages of man�* orjohn gielgud, and the other was laurence olivier music by sir william walton, and i asked our head of english if i could borrow them. i liked the bright, shiny nature of them. i think i half heard in some distant part of my memory this name, "olivier". anyway, i took them home and i was bowled over. already aware of sort of two extremes. in the olivier excerpts, which were from the soundtracks of the films, things like his account of hamlet�*s to be or not to be soliloquy which, in his brilliant film, has him atop a rocky outcrop, looking down onto the wild sea crashing against the rocks while he contemplate suicide. so he begins to be or not to be and goes through it, and william walton's music is soaring, shouting and trilling and supporting and the sound effects of the water and the wind and the waves. i mean, it's shakespeare plus a lot of bells and whistles in addition to olivier�*s beautiful voice. olivier: to be. or not to be. john gielgud by contrast, the ages of man being an account of his recital of great speeches from sha
