how many do we get to send to the national convention? i thought it sounded like a lot for a small state. >> four. >> ad a zero to it. >> 40. you failed on that one. [laughter] i told gary he couldn't answer. >> what that means is when the delegates are chosen to go to the national convention. so, let's say trump did get 50%. so, 20 delegates would be able to vote for trump in the first round at the national convention. and then percentagewise to the other ones. so, if there is 10%, it would be two to someone, 20%, four to another one or whatever. >> of the 40 delegates, is that 10 for each of the four congressional? >> 40 throughout the state. >> i'm not even sure how they are chosen but i'm sure there is a process. >> there is a process. i apologize, i can't tell you exactly, but some are chosen at the district. and then there are some that are chosen by the state committee. there is also some chosen [indiscernible] so they come from three different areas. >> is the automatically the delegate? >> no. >> oh, okay. >> protocol says that t

conceivably you could have a bunch of primaries sending biden delegates to the national convention. at the convention by the time the convention biden could step aside. it's not an accident that witmer and newsom have all filed federal committees that allow them to move around the country and pay particular attention to who is being made a delegate. california will hold its primary march 5th, newsom is trying to make sure every one of those biden delegates is a newsom person so he has some influence at the democratic national convention. paul: if the president dropped out, could he release his delegates and they could choose whoever they want as a candidate? that would be quite the free for all. >> yes, essentially he could say i am no longer a candidate, i release my delegates. some states required to vote for the candidate, support on the first or second ballot but could essentially say it is up to you. we've not had this happen. for the republicans, 1952, 1940, at the conventions seriously contested conventions, 60 -- democrats last seriously contested convention was the 1980 conv

so we're already deep into spring if not the summer when we have the national conventions. and then the november election looming. >> we should just take a moment to acknowledge, carrie, these are important, weighty decisions. presidential immunity. is a president immune from criminal charges for things he did when he was president? or did the president engage in insurrection? does that make him not eligible to be president according to the 14th amendment to the u.s. constitution? these are serious issues. >> absolutely. these are cases that the former president trump is involved in, but these are cases about the presidency itself. and that is what all of the courts, the appellate court and the supreme court are going to be considering. the supreme court of colorado in its decision said we are in uncharted territory, we know, we the supreme court of colorado, know that we are ruling on novel issues of constitutional law. so there is an argument that the courts should be taking their time and conducting a constitutional analysis for the history books for future presidencies,

participation of the islamic republic of iran in the world refugee forum was held here at the united nations conventionter in geneva. a meeting to review the status of refugees, the minister of foreign affairs began his speech in this meeting with a question. why should only a few countries have the responsibility of hosting the majority. take care of the refugees in the world. mr. amir abdollahian referring to the purpose of establishing this the assembly said in support of the hosts of refugees from the longest hosting of refugees in the world. as you know, it has been more than 45 years that the islamic republic of iran has hosted the longest refugee situation and now after the developments in afghanistan in 2020. 21 my country hosts the largest displaced population in the world. the longest hosting of refugees, which, as the foreign secretary says, is the result of the irresponsible actions of others. numerous military interventions and other illegal interventions by powers outside our region have caused instability, insecurity and underdevelopment. although there has been no change in the islamic

avelo from his 2016 speech to the republican national convention where he said the whole is the greater than the sum of its parts. he was talking about the republican party. that needs to apply to everyone here. for people on both sides of both houses, republicans on both sides of congress and particularly the house to lash this up as a precondition with aid to ukraine, taiwan and israel is a problem. to answer your question though, in terms of where it is -- you have people, there are elements of what's in the deal now, whether it's increasing a list of third party countries that people need to have tried to go to first, but canada is one but mexico is not, raising the standard of what someone can say when they have a credible fear. progressives are not happy with that but democrats areeing on that on parts of it. >> we'll see what comes out of the senate. thanks for joining us this afternoon. much appreciated. >> thank you. >> the other huge breaking headline today, maine is the second state attempting to block donald trump from the primary ballot even though the former president has

to think about today, there's literally a latino night at the republican national convention in the year 2000. it is impossible to imagine such a thing today. >> that is for sure. >> joaquin castro of texas, it has been nearly three weeks since hamas released any of the hostages from gaza. they so cruelly seized on october 7th, families of those still in captivity more than 100 of them met with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu . a father who attended that meeting will join me next. >>> israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu met with frustrated families of many hostages still being held captive by hamas and other groups. they are demanding a deal for their loved ones release. israel was open to a new pause in fighting say israel is ready for another humanitarian pause and additional humanitarian aid in order to get the release of hostages and the responsibility lies fully with hamas chief and the leadership unquote. this follows saturday's protest were thousands gathered in tel aviv after three is really hostages were accidentally shot and killed by the idf in gaza. >> i am jo

this treaty is, while telling us they want to breach the human rights conventions, the united nations convention against torture and other cruel treatment is punishment about an 84 as well as customary laws that might get in their way including from european court of human rights. international law is binding, no case up, they are supposed to adhere to it. that is why they signed update in the first place. it is abject nonsense. the law society of england and wales wrote further, and state quite clearly that domestic legislation cannot immunise the government from the enforcement of international law but up to claim it can is disingenuous. they also state that refusing to comply with an interim measure would be a clear breach of international law. they accuse the uk government further of using a plot to manufacture a reality and it is the time of year where all indulge in christmas magic and imagine reindeer on the roof but this government has asked the entire legal system of the uk to engage in a former dangerous pretence. the uk supreme court sought out the facts for itself and upon that clear

disagreement on that earlier, it certainly pushes it back closer to maybe when the republican national convention is going on, closer to election day and then you get into questions as to whether or not you can even have a trial at that point, if trump is the nominee. the fascination with march 4, of course, is the next day is super tuesday. happening right before and during the most pivotal month. that has a lot of folks talking. as a technical, functional matter, if this gets delayed and trump does not have to deal with it, it is probably a good thing for him. >> may be judge luttig is right, but he is certainly in the minority inking this will not delay the trial. you hear ron desantis lamenting the oxygen is sucked out of the room. is he just saying the obvious or is he laying the groundwork for a potential loss? >> look at ron desantis ' lived experience. people are unhappy with trump, there is a thought that maybe he should just get into the presidential race and go ahead and take over the party. he was leading trump in the national polls. he waited and waited until the following may. what

securing the nomination sometime in late march, the actual republican national convention where delegates confirm him as nominee and then the election date. so does the election occur after he secures basically super tuesday but before the convention, does it occur before the convention and november? that is where the race could change any number of ways. i still agree with the scholars that there is no way that the supreme court provides immunity. but i think there is still a small chance they might. one of the president's arguments is that he was acting in the outer perimeter of the office. the calls in michigan suggest no, that was a personal vendetta. but is there a scenario where the president should care with the proper administration of elections? there is. but the supreme court is 6-3, so we can't rule out a big surprise. i don't think that it happens, but we can't rule it out. >> and the discussion that we had about just colorado, we have 16 other states that are watching what is happening this colorado, does that decision there help or hurt the arguments that might be made for o
