jack smith the prosecutor is indicating they are accusing trump of doing those things he did to benefit himself, that is up for two -- effort to subvert the election -- who said that george bush going to invade iraq based on a false pretense was not to benefit himself? you can make an argument that bush invaded iraq not to help -- to power up his friends' socks. who says you could not make a case that biden is allowing all these illegal immigrants flowing into the country in order to benefit the democrats in the future? and that is a personal benefit to democrats. there are several arguments you can make and this becomes a slippery slope. i think the supreme court should take a pause to understand the case very well and find a way to strike a balance. instead of saying trump does not have immunity. they open up a pandora's box. if a president can find something of a former president did and use the justice department to prosecute him. host: in virginia, independent line. caller: i have a financial question. do you think there's any benefit to our country to having every state adopt virg

one interesting thing is special counsel jack smith seems to have already anticipated this. he dropped a footnote in a brief related to former president trump's immunity case that says, even if the court were to pull back on the statute, they think they do have the kind of evidence that would be necessary to bring a chart under this particular statute, and they have others as well. host: that court case being heard today. other supreme court news, kimberly robinson -- news being made yesterday because of clarence thomas. can you describe what happened and is there an explanation yet? guest: sometimes it happens that all -- not all 9 justices are at oral arguments. it is pretty rare. typically what happens, particularly post-pandemic, justice will feed into the oral arguments through an audio stream. that did not happen yesterday with clarence thomas. shortly before oral argument, he we heard -- we heard he was not going to be sitting here there was no explanation, as we usually get, as to whether he was ill or suffered from travel plans. we do not know. this up in court is n
