We heard the explosive noise. Clear as day. As if someone lit 10 firecrackers. We immediately feared it was gunshots

We jumped beneath the press rafters Debris fell on our heads

We’ve since been evacuated by law enforcement
We have been evacuated. Secret service ordered us off-site. Massive crime scene.

Two helicopter landings minutes after Trump was evacuated
Cell signals are jammed here. These posts are fleeting. Calls are near impossible. Pardon any unrelated noise on this feed. For next few hours

Medical emergencies left and right at the Trump rally here in Butler County, PA. They’ve offered no shaded areas in audience .. and the small pallets of bottled water aren’t sufficient

Several calls of “medic, medic, medic” amid crowd

We’re here for @CBSEveningNews Image
There were aspirations among the crowd that a VP candidate would be announced tonight. In interviews, some rallygoers are still blasting Mike Pence … who’s not supporting Trump … after Trump supporters sought to capture him on Jan 6. Some carrying weapons and with a gallows outside Capitol
On stage…. The first speakers refer to Trump as “the President”…. Not the former President

That’s been a dynamic among some defendants in Jan 6 court proceedings too

As I head to President Biden's rally here in Madison, WI

A few notes about the impact of the polling and the election on the largest criminal prosecution in US history

(MORE)
In a series of recent courtroom incidents I've witnessed .... Jan 6 defendants boasted that they anticipate pardons or some form of reprieve from a future President Trump

Bolstered by polls or by Trump's campaign rhetoric

At a hearing in May, defendant John Banuelos (who's accused of brandishing & firing a gun amid the mob) challenged Judge Tanya Chutkan

He predicted a Trump victory aloud, adding "I've got nothing to worry about"

SEVEN WORDS

From page 97 of the Supreme Court ruling ===> Image
Dissent (more): “Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.”
This is a staggering thing to read in a dissent/opinion from the US Supreme Court:

“In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law”

Former House Jan 6 Select Committee members are issuing statements upon Trump’s first trip to Capitol Hill post-Jan 6

Rep Zoe Lofgren (D-CA): “I learned during the January 6th investigation to take Mr. Trump at his word, and his unhinged comments about democracy and America's future make it clear that he is a threat to our system of government.”
Rep Adam Schiff (D-CA): “Every Republican meeting today with Donald Trump – who has promised to be a dictator on day one if he’s elected & prophesied a bloodbath if he’s not – should commit today to accepting the results of November’s free and fair election..”
Rep Bennie Thompson (D-MS): “After inciting a deadly insurrection that defiled the halls of Congress, how dare Trump show his face on these grounds? Congressional Republicans allow him to waltz in here when it’s known he has no regard for democracy”

Interesting exchange just now during jury selection in Hunter Biden trial

Prospective juror is called into courtroom. He’s a former police officer who says he’s acquainted with Dr Jill Biden and has met President Biden at events

Under questioning, there are some revelations …
Prospective juror, who says he’s a FOX News viewer, told the court about donations he’d made to a candidate for Delaware Attorney General.

It was money for a prior challenger to Beau Biden

Prospective juror is an RNC donor too. And he’s answers yes when asked if he believes some prosecutions and law enforcement investigations are “political”

Then H Biden’s defense begins to pepper potential juror with questions
