also with us, neal katyal, former acting u.s.ourtside we have neal katyal. they both msnbc legal analysts. and neal, this one is apparently going straight to the united states supreme court. how fast you expected to get there? >> very fast. first of all, i think this is a solemn moment. it is kind of horrendous that we as americans are in this situation that we have someone running for president who has done these kinds of things. and for people like me, who believe varies strongly that donald trump is un-american away to crush a of trump, i personally would like to have him on the ballot. but the thing is, and what the colorado supreme court said today, which i think is absolutely right, is that in 1860, eight after the civil war, we put an amendment into the constitution, as you fat flashed on the screen, insurrectionists from holding public office, and it's exactly what donald trump is trying to do and you are colorado supreme court just rode the plain text of the constitution and said, you know, trump, you're disqualified. an

i think neal is dead on the money.g about the timeline, if smith has to wait it out and let the d.c. circuit decide this case before it gets to the supreme court, it's possible that it couldn't be decided in this term. they're asking the supreme court directly, ensures that will get a decision by the time this time of court ends in late june or early july at the latest. that could delay the trial if the court held that till the very end. but if they grant his petition to expedite, it's possible the march trial could still happen, maybe with a short delay. the risk if he didn't do this was that the supreme court would not consider this case until the next time of court starts in the fall of 2024. so this is, i think, a very smart move. the point about the nixon cases this. the supreme court can move quickly when they want to. in that matter, the watergate prosecutors subpoenaed nixon's tapes in april. the judge decided they were entitled to them in may. they were in front of the supreme court in july, they argued the ca

and this is a big one, neal. and that is tell us about the role of precedent on the supreme court and what does the top decision say about this court's attitude toward precedent? it says that they can overrule any precedent any time, anywhere. that is, if you can overrule roe, which is what think every justice at their confirmation hearing called a super precedent. and what justice o'connor, kennedy and souter said was a super precedent. and you can overrule anything. and let's just take, for example, the judge's discussion of chevron. i think chevron is the most cited case by the u.s. supreme court ever. and so this is woven very much into the fabric of the law. congress, when it's been passing statutes since 1984, has passed them in the shadow of chevron. so they understand they don't have to so resolve every ambiguity because the agencies can do it for themselves. well, it now looks like the supreme court is poised to overrule chevron. and i guess i disagree a little bit with the judge. obviously, he does this

so during the time of zora neale hurston. she was born in 1811, died in 1960 -- 1891, her parents brought her to' tonville when she was basically a toddler. so in the early 1900s this roadway e now called east kennedy boulevard was actually the old apopka highway. it was the link between northeast if orange county, maitland and northwest orange county, apopka. and so the road itself is a historic roadway. now, we're in a space e that looks at lot different from modern eatonville or eatonville of the day. in fact, this is a space that really hearkens back to what we call old florida. and we are standing in a place where zora neale hurston is known to have done some of her writing. you know, at a certain point she came back and forth to eaton ville, and at times when she did stay here, we call this tuxedo junction. it's actually located right on the shore, so to speak, of the lake. it is a place, as i say, that sheds known to have -- she is known to have done some of her writing. now we're at the matilda mosley house museum. an

this is not a hard case. >> one more for you, neal. in terms of what can happen while this is working its way through the courts, you know, there's talk of a stay that of course trump would like, that jack smith has been pleading sort of against if you will. how much can judge chutkan do while, you know, scotus and the d.c. circuit court decide what they're going to do with this? >> i argued this question last year and basically the supreme court said while the case is on appeal much of it cannot go forward in the district court. some things can, the gag order and discovery of abuse and the like, but some cannot. and that's the reason why jack smith was so smart to file this motion he did yesterday to bypass the court of appeals. >> bluff calling from the special counsel. neal katyal, the person who knows the behavior of the high court better than most americans. thank you for your time tonight, my friend. >> thank you. >>> much more ahead tonight including the strangely tight grip donald trump has on evangelical voters. the new author

neal katyal, let's stay here. we will wind our way back to the law.g, but so sustained, and it is voices like both of yours that cut through. and i just wonder your thoughts on the fact that we have to have these conversations at all about donald trump. >> well, and also, nicolle, the fact that we're having this conversation, having judge luttig talk about donald trump. that's like a matter/anti-matter explosion. i mean, judge luttig is a true national hero and donald trump is now in court, i think, by my count right now this week, in five different jurisdictions as an insurrectionist. it's such a privilege to watch judge luttig and to hear him speak so clearly about what the constitution means and, you know, it connects up very directly to this whole question of the 14th amendment. you know, the judge refers to the concern about it maybe being anti-democratic. the way i look at it is there's some red lines in the constitution that say, look, you're not allowed to hold office if you do these things. you mentioned being 12, but the one that for me is t

and that very became the basis for tray up on vets, done with these and that funds of the neal mystic settlement of in south west and georgia is guarded by a narrow gorge of red sand stuff. the local residents use that sandstone to make distinctive semis, circular handicraft, almost like the so far as the how did these people would come out? this shape didn't happen. and then they've created these items out of the material that was left over. you had one on zone longer puleo that sun down each and until they were quite soon. and so far as a gala thing device on these items were probably too delicate for people to weigh more than they're very fragile items. lot of these are thing. so police not to this, my son wouldn't, these are thing it does have the, it's possible that these rings we use like money to, but i'm getting on the more stuff or in exchange for food overall materials. for example, the narrative doing i'm guitars. perhaps the settlers chose this site because of the color of the rocks. red colored artifacts had been found at other sites, and this indicates that the young may

. >> so that was one question on a timeline, neal. your sense, how quickly we would see this happen? >> i think it will happen quickly. the u.s. supreme court is capable of acting with remarkable speed. bush versus gore was 36 days. the court has a long recess right now, kind of their winter break, and without six are seven weeks where they're not even hearing oral argument, so there's a lot of time for them to get ready to heart this kay and ultimately decide it. >> judge, sit wonder that this state court cites judge gorsuch, does that make it harder for him to overturn the ruling? >> first, let me add to neal's discussion there's already a hue and cry by the partisan political people in our nation, that the decision is anti-democratic. it is not. the constitution itself tells us the disqualifications, or the possible disqualifications of the former president is not what's anti-democratic. rather, the constitution tells us it is the conduct that can give rise to disqualifications under the 14th amendment so, in other words, the frame

in a similar way, residents of canada and south africa entered the book of achievements; beth neal andr became record holders in underwater kissing, managing to last 4 minutes in the pool and 6 seconds. we all want it. in a new year's miracle, but for some this same miracle actually happens, and not even just once and not at the end of the year. brooklyn resident wayne murray won a $10 million lottery jackpot this year, a man who bought a lottery ticket for $30 earned the prize, everything would have been fine, but last year at christmas, murey also won a jackpot of exactly the same amount, $ 10 million . the man immediately became a star on local television. one can only envy such luck, as well as the skill of courage pilot of ural airlines, thanks to sergei bilov, 161 passengers will be able to celebrate the new year with family and friends. he masterfully landed the plane in an open field. an airbus a-320 aircraft operated by ural airlines, flying from sochi to omsk, made an emergency landing in the novosibirsk region on september 12. according to the pilot, the plane would reach it

that off the back neale that came off the back of neale hanvey mp saying in westminster hall there aretrouncing the gay away. the next day there was a constructive and brilliant debate in the house of lords, baroness jenkin , lords, led by baroness jenkin, in which i particularly noted one very movingly speaking one peer very movingly speaking about plight autistic about the plight of autistic children who obviously i'm here for rights. autistic for gay rights. autistic children forgotten in children are often forgotten in this as well because they are disproportion represented in those the tavistock those who go to the tavistock who have symptoms of gender dysphoria, 35% under 35% of the patient cohort , compared to 2% patient cohort, compared to 2% in the general population. so i think the answer to your question is we've got to keep spreading the word and we've got to keep changing the discourse and what happened in the commons kemi in particular kemi badenoch in particular saying the unsayable. but people across the house doing that, that changes discourse. that that changes the di

who and what was miss neal's response? you might have if you have any wish. you said this is a 2 separate as of now, is it 50? i need to go really make it up, you know? so that, that's how that's, that's the limit of just how far this falls can go. but you know, the whole, i do the worry now that we no longer now know the difference between fake news and the real, the real narrative. it's so heavy a lot of channels and this is, this is a very interesting turning point. i mean, october 7th, probably will go down in history for a variety of reasons, depending on how you think about the situation and what will eventually result. um, there are too many people in power available. i don't remember what happened on jet on october of 6 or what happened on october. 8th, that's going to be the problem, george. but for me, one of the saddest things is that the great supporters who procedures for free speech conservatives may have given up the ghost too. and that's why we're making this program george. so that's right. and there was i
