Rep. Joe Neguse on prior case in which a former official argued he cannot be tried: 'Belknap made the exact same argument that Pres. Trump is making today: that you all lack jurisdiction.' 'Many senators...were outraged by that argument. Outraged.'

, D-Md., tapped by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to serve as the lead House impeachment manager, opened arguments at Tuesday's trial, laying out the constitutionality of the Senate trial.

"This would create a brand new January exception to the Constitution of the United States of America. A January exception. And everyone can see immediately why this is so dangerous. It's an invitation to the president to take his best shot at anything he may want to do on his way out the door, including using violent means to lock that door, to hang onto the Oval Office at all costs, and to block the peaceful transfer of power," Raskin said.

SHOCKING that news outlets print false articles like this 1 which is based only only sources of 'ppl familiar with Trump's thinking'. NO FACTS. JUST CONJECTURE GARBAGE. .

LIER!🧐😎👩‍⚖👨‍⚖😎🇺🇸!

I was reminded of a fifth grader doing an oral book report not having read the book. But then I thought that was insulting to fifth graders.

Sorry his death .

Insane fanatic! GOP is a lost bone!

He is the worst excuse for a constitutional lawyer ever...What's his point? Where down this rambling path is he going?

Moving and thoughtful. Now trump team comes up here talking abt this being retribution. 🤦 Trumpism leans hard on retribution, petty BS stuff so think everyone else does. Justice and concept of prevention of bad things is completely foreign to them

Alexander Hamilton also described Trump to a tee...

Sorry Brucie boy... can’t follow you ... what the hell are u talking about

Sleepy Bruce over here trying to make jokes. PEOPLE DIED!

I wish he would stop trying to be a f**cking comedian and say something

This is a terrible waste of time. He is making no sense.

Mr. Castor so far you’re not very convincing.

Anyone else wondering where he going with all this?

Waiting for the BUT..... Stop the drama because, Saying 'STAND BACK and STAND BY' to a cult of aroused anti government extremists is a definite 'CALL TO ARMS'.

How do you like that GOP base you’re 45th president thinks you’re repugnant

Trump the conman used his bully pulpit for weeks to delegitimize the election, and now his lawyers say he “denounces the violence of the rioters”? Trump drove these rioters to violence.

Soooo, the defense is just going to lull us to sleep via irrelevance?

Watching this feels like watching a kid give a book report on a book he didn’t read.

you don’t get to have it both ways. it’s impossible.

Trump told them “I love you” in a tweet at 6:01 pm. so apparently Trump didn’t find it repugnant.

How are things with the capitol now?

He is sounding more like the prosecution team.

Liar

A shocking video seen now. 'Senator' Your vote will determine if this happens again, HISTORY will record if you sided with a man who worked to become an autocrat of our country. Will your great,+grandkids see you as a Benedict Arnold and be ashamed? Is $174K really worth it?

Powerful! trump must be held accountable

Whining pussy.

this guy is just to soft... RepRaskin

Amazing how Raskin is 'now' so upset over police officers getting hurt, injured & some died! Where was Raskin while so many officers died, suffered & where injured during the attacks on so many states this past yr? Death of 'shot'police officer Dorn streamed live on Facebook!

DogecoinToTheMoon

His hairdresser needs to be impeached 🤣

You are watching the downfall in America. Impeachment, gender pronouns and critical race theory while China prepares to take over the world.

pat625t GOP may play dumb but they’re not blind. They can see the videos

Ummmmmm, it’s not, but please continue to AGAIN, waste time and $.

doubt they’ll get the 2/3rds required tho ngl.

So they got everyone’s $2000.00 in the mail before starting this silliness right?

Yeah but they are siting opinion not fact! The American people see how screwed up their government is and WEARECOMINGRUN

I'm going to laugh if the 2nd attempt fails. All we will hear is 'well he was impeached twice' and the response will be 'and each time he wasn't found guilty. You failed twice.' That's when the fragile left resorts to violence cause words hurt them.

And why can’t ABC be objective? There are some of us who still want to hear the news and be allowed to use our deductive reasoning skills to make our own opinions on issues. Why and when did it become the norm that media only has one view and is unwilling to listen to others

Sao cung duoc. Vui la chinh. duyen so quyet dinh .

I believe Rep Raskin was channeling of Hamilton as he spoke. Look at the glow streaming from his face and the power of his oratory.

Looks like a parade of clowns lol

All politically motivated to stain Trumps name and to prevent him from holding federal office again. You can fool your cattle of sheeple but not us.

Oh gee! I WoNdEr WhAt WiLl HaPpEn!

Really need to cover on every station

What I don’t get is- if he committed a “crime” of causing an insurrection that caused death- then why has he not been arrested by the DC police? And also, where is the evidence that 7 people died in the capital?

Was there any graphic warning before I just watched a murder at 130pm on a Tuesday. Shessh 😲. I get the raw footage but damn tho

This was chilling. Watching these insurrection nut jobs get whipped into a frenzy while trump was talking was telling. Accountable and liable. Regardless of timing. No one gets a pass to commit crimes for the loophole.

I think he just said there’s no merit to charge Trump with an insurrection and - he’s right!!

Idiot's, every single one! Impeach Nixon next. Or a potato. Why not? They dont legislate.! We need term limits

tedcruz Convict Trump Immediately and Resign after that you should be ARRESTED 14thAmendmentSection3NOW

That video was a masterclass on presentation and devastating to Trump and every cowardly senator who lets him off the hook.

Then there is no such thing. Careful with your rhetoric genius.

NO JanuaryException for anyone

This is me, watching videos shown during the February 09, 2021 TrumpImpeachment trial of the domestic terrorist attack on the people who belonged in the Capitol, protectors of the Capitol and the Capitol building.

🎧🚖🚖🚖🚃 Today my sister and I share a birthday. 🎉 Pow

Smart as a whip! Thank God he is on our side.

what a fucking farce

Thank you, Rep. Raskin. A moving and poignant delivery. Thank you.

95% only bad news(

The GOP set those cops up to fail. They’re all complicit.

Trump needs to be convicted. The evidence is substantial and compelling that he incited this insurrection.

No moving on from that video alone.
