Topics
新闻播报员:报道了密歇根州16名伪造选举人面临刑事指控,以及特朗普可能面临与1月6日国会大厦袭击事件相关的第三次起诉。同时,拜登政府的庇护政策也受到了法庭的挑战。 Colin Jackson:详细介绍了密歇根州伪造选举人案的指控细节,指出这些被告伪造文件,试图将密歇根州的选举人票授予特朗普,即使特朗普在该州输掉了选举。他还谈到了这些被告的背景,以及此案在全国范围内的影响。 Neal:作为民主党人,他认为对伪造选举人的指控并非政治行为,而是基于压倒性的证据。 Greg Allen:报道了特朗普被告知是特别检察官对1月6日事件调查的目标人物,暗示他可能面临第三次起诉。他还报道了特朗普的律师请求推迟对特朗普隐瞒机密文件的审判,以及检方对此的回应。 Joe Rose:报道了拜登政府新的庇护申请规则,以及该政策引发的争议。移民权益倡导者认为该政策不合理,因为它造成了申请瓶颈;而移民限制支持者则认为该政策只是障眼法,并没有真正减少非法移民。 特朗普的律师Tad Hutchin:认为特朗普作为前总统和总统候选人,应该得到特殊考虑,不应该像其他案件一样对待。 检察官David Harbou:反驳了特朗普律师的观点,认为特朗普只是普通公民,而不是总统,媒体关注不应成为推迟审判的理由。 新闻播报员: 报道了密歇根州对16名伪造选举人提起刑事诉讼,他们试图在2020年大选中将密歇根州的选举人票授予特朗普。同时,特朗普被告知是特别检察官对1月6日事件调查的目标人物,这可能导致他面临第三次起诉。此外,拜登政府的庇护政策也受到了法庭的挑战,导致非法越境人数下降。
