I am rather shocked he openly said they were all passing around longer pieces about him refusing to leave office prior to the election even taking place. How was everyone so certain Trump was going to lose a month prior to the election ? That they are contacting judges and asking for the legal framework for possibilities ? But the security for the day of the actual contest has lack luster security and feds breaking windows ? Sounds like the whole legal community completely understand the possibly constitutional crisis that would have occurred if a few states had been denied and neither emerged victorious !

It was Judge Luttig's young 'millennial' son who made the difference comparable to Paul Revere to 'get the word out'. I have the same situation with my millennial son's attitude at my age of 75. "Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-Five: Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year. He said to his friend, “If the British march By land or sea from the town to-night, Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry-arch Of the North-Church-tower, as a signal-light,- One if by land, and two if by sea; And I on the opposite shore will be, Ready to ride and spread the alarm Through every Middlesex village and farm, For the country-folk to be up and to arm.” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 1807 -1882

He is clearly a Republican/conservative, but has done what we expect of judges and taken party affiliation out of his legal analysis and actions with respect to the law. He wasn't doing or saying what Trump wanted like 90% of Republicans regardless of if they are judges or not. He is clearly able to be impartial and loves the country enough to do so. I don't have to agree with who he votes for to see he's a decent man of integrity and I respect that immensely.

He’ll be the first judge to be taken down in his own courtroom at gunpoint by Secret Service. All it takes is Donald J Trump to point his finger and say end him! And Secret Service will follow orders and end him on the spot. Every time Donald Trump enters a courtroom. His security detail owns the scene. And as an ex-President, he is the highest authority in the room even over ad Justice. Don’t make us prove it. This time I guarantee the mob won’t show up unarmed.

This former Judge has been the perfect Judge who never interfere with politics and this is the closest he has come, he had to come to the hardest decision of his career and choose his country over his normal decision making democracy was at stake and when good men do nothing then evil men can do harm. As a judge, people will weigh his words with careful consideration. He prevented the insurrection from having lawful justification despite another law scholar Mr Eastman offering the former president incorrect advice on electoral election interference. Now he is at another inflexion point and here he is again doing his civic duty for this democracy and I hope enough USA citizens listen to PBS interview. I appreciate MAGA colt followers will not change their thought but he may be able to get through to the educated Repubicans who are still to decided what action to take to save this precious democracy. Many very brave people have died over the century to give this democracy to the USA and they would be all in now to fight for this democracy. Now it is time for those people who have sworn an oath to the country to be prepared to defend the country again against foreign and domestic actors who would seek to take it away from their families.

None of those things are a threat to democracy, only a stupid riot on Jan 6th is a big deal. In the end I get it, DC will always be a 90% far left Democrat Biased town. Why?

During which time we have learned of his multifarious delinquencies and their criminal intent, their civil infractions, his incipient treachery, his misuse of state documents, any one of which would have landed a non-candidate in prison for years but this campaign holds the media in thrall rather as mesmerised birds witnessing the predatory dance of the Weasel. Just to itemise the delinquencies of which he is either sued or indicted; molesting [rape] a woman slandering and libelling his victim, and denying her very existence extensive tax evasion and fraud on a grand scale organising an insurrection detaining and then concealing classified documents organising a silencing of hostile information issued eventually by an adult actress' [Porn Start' I love the term 'adult' It adds piquancy to the infantile career of a petulant, ill educated, ignorant, stupid mendacious delinquent who was actually elected to the office of President of the USA. To try to prevent his leaving the Whitehouse he attempted various schemes, most illegal and incited a riot of his fans. The details of these activities are well known, and incite a riot utube seems concerned with little else than the career of this petulant, criminal irresponsible liar about whom further details emerge every day. Innocent Europeans except the English, whose governing party lend succour to the monster, may be surprised to learn that this 'man' liable to tantrum and patent lies and denial of Truth is not in prison for his insurrection alone, but this fiction of his being a 'candidate' and this fiction of a 'campaign' hold justice at bay by exploiting the absurd system of justice that the USA has, State courts, state appeal courts, supreme courts, and at the pinnacle of this The Supreme Court, and here is another disturbing circumstance that should cause European hair to be raised in fear, the Supreme Court is nominated by Presidents, yes! That is right, nominated by presidents. Outside the Mikado by Gilbert and Sullivan , this president nominates Supreme Court Justices, he is head of State [The Civil Society] he is the head of the executive branch which h is overtly party political, and he is party leader in so far as the spinless, the gutless, the cunning and the ambitious do his bidding with abject and pusillanimous obedience. Part of the 'entertainment' offered by the media is an interesting facet of this enthralment of party, justice and media and cretinous supporters who dull eyed lack jawed, cretins wearing red caps from under which they observe the world in total incomprehension, but they will vote for the idiot.. This Media entertainment centres on two patent absurdities, or rather three, the first being that this liar, rapist, and traitor was President and is a candidate instead of a felon serving time. This candidate, according to the constitution should be disqualified. It says so in stark and clear terms in article 3 of the Fourteenth amendment. But the tension of this 'drama and although ' lies in the fact that although the facts are known and the article explicit the lawyers outside the supreme court are not confident that the supreme courtesans, [they are kept men owned in three proven cases by a coterie of billionaires] cannot be relied upon to draw the only conclusion that would save the world from disaster; they may nuance it, they may finesse it just as they seem unable to conclude after four years that a past president is not immune from criminal prosecution. Facts and language which is explicit are not the stuff of justice for this gang of at least three suborned justices owned like courtesans by rich, self indulgent criminal billionaires. And so we hover on a precipice unless this cluster of courtesans dig deep into their despoiled integrity and conclude the obvious. That he is disqualified, and he is not immune for criminal acts committed personna propre in his own interest. Of what does his campaign for President consist? denials of patent truths attested by justices in 50 states; mendacity, lies patent lies easy to refute; claims credit for the successes of his successor; his the brass necked effrontery to accuse his successor of all the crimes of which he and his hideous party are guilty; refuting science and denying climate change; overt misogyny; patent racism. promising retribution on his opponents; promising to be a dictator and rubbishing democracy; But what about policies? Oh no! There was no policy ,only a conspiracy to return the USA to yesterday. That is to say the slogan MAGA means that it was great for white males and their amenable wives and family and a group of crooked, spineless men and trickster women aided and abet him in this crooked enterprise; Despite knowing this conspiracy,established facts and testimony there seems to be some doubt in some unscrupulous ,shady minds that he has disqualified himself,and there is still some that flirt with the notion a president is immune from prosecution, and there are some MAGA republicans that are still prepared to put a more 'favourable' complexion the episodes leading up to, including, and subsequently to this traumatic assault on the constitution by a gang and its leader. That call properly indicted and convicted felons 'hostages'. and' political prisoners' And denying this,,and obstructing his successor to solve problems they allege none the less are suffered to put these this systematic obfuscation forward in their campaigns in the country and in the House of Representative ,and do all within their power to resist ,prevent or delay the administration of justice but he has evaded justice because he is a candidate in an election not declared and so justice in this labyrinthine system is held at bay on this fatuous pretext If your grand children face adversity from climate if democracy is laid waste everywhere this man claims the credit. Just so you know what you can tell your grand children in the name of God and minced Jesus. Your Grand children's children will not survive long enough to tell the story. Donald Trump is the most disreputable man ever to stand as a candidate of the USA .It is a shame on their constitution ,on elements of the people and the power structures of the Republican Party that they are so derelict of judgment, as to have connived at his election, and seek ,irresponsibly to connive t his re-election or even to prevent his incarceration in prison. Their attitude is tantamount to Sod the world for Minced Jesus and pious immorality l@@sylviagoodman6008

Cruelty is the point so they don’t care if he broke laws, ruined lifelong careers with lies, dehumanizes groups of people, directs violence towards people/groups.They will vote against their own interests out of spite. Angry, unhappy people have been directed who to hate. Who to target with violence and harassment. Who is to blame for their unfulfilling lives. Who they must fear and why. They are willing to give their leaders blind loyalty and participate actively online in the narrative. They place all their “hope” in one person. The “I alone can fix it” strategy.” It’s the result of consistent daily gaslighting and misinformation. Politicians pay people to post comments supporting their side all over social media. All built on fear, hating people.All coordinated.

I am a German citizen and know very little about all the details what happened at these events. This interview is one of the most outstanding interviews I have ever seen and I am deeply impressed by the humbleness of Michael Luttig and even more impressed to watch him how he considered every single word while answering the questions. The story he tells is heroic and this man literally saved America that day by tweeting his words and not even knowing how to tweet, so he had to read the instructions first. What a fascinating story and in the same time I am deeply worried now about where this political theatre is navigating. After hearing Michael's explanations I believe that there is an urgend need for America to wake up and sort out this mess. We are now in very difficult times of an imminent danger for a thrid world war and the political leaders in the leading nation of the western world have nothing better to do, than conspiring for personal and political reasons. Anyone who can should take all necessary risks, if it can provide possibly any hope to resolve this situation. What the former president did was more than obviously not ok and ist must have consequences, which are of equal gravity.

I think most people, and I'm one of them, take our democratic institutions for granted, assume they will function to ensure the stability of our democracies (I'm in Canada). But like Americans I'm witnessing a movement of "fringe" right wing elements seeking to upend it in my own country. Trump is horrifying but he's one man who would be nowhere without enablers. When we visualize fascism, we usually think of it at its peak state and not its beginnings but it's the beginning that we should be focused on. "It can't happen here" isn't true and we're finding that out. Much thanks to PBS for producing this series and let it be known the right wing of America wants the public broadcaster suppressed just like they do in Canada.

Unfortunately, those who need to view & hear this, aren't listening. This man seems honest & humble. Whether i agree with his politics, which i gather is Rep., is neither here nor there. I can appreciate his thoroughness. We need more judges like this, especially in the SC. We need more like him in general.

He appears to be that, but he is still a Republican who thought that the Impeachment process functioned as it should. This is a highly questionable assertion considering US Attorney General Bill Barr's machinations of the supposed independent investigation into Trump and the blocked reports, plus the US Senate's refusal to even convene into deliberating the articles of impeachment of Trump. I do applaud the fact that he appreciates the danger posed by Trump in his lust for power and the destruction of our government and our country. I also applaud that he recognizes the lack of courage and morality of the Republican leadership in their enabling of Trump just to maintain their own power.

Can you post on your FB page? That's my plan. Here in Texas, *many* of my FB 'friends' are Republicans, although some I've had to un-friend due to their crazy rants and elementary school name-calling.

The more time we listen to him the more encouraged we are because we feel what he says is substantive and that he stands for the Rule of Law and eventhough he is conservative he outwardly does not stand for what Donald Trump and his cronies do.

When his wife of 40 years comes to him and tells him she believed Trump wouldn’t leave the White House, he calmly dismissed her. When it seemed apparent Trump wouldn’t leave, he wouldn’t admit there was a problem to anyone but her. That’s what he said. That is not deep character.

Mr. Luttig is an absolutely brilliant patriotic man with insight and foresight. He is much like my father in law Lt. Col Charles Shallenberger, P-38 fighter pilot in Korea who I imagine is rolling in his grave. Chuck abandoned the Republican part before he died in the W. Bush era. His final words to me on politics was "The republican party has been hijacked". R.I.P. Chuck and thanks for EVERYTHING you did for our community and our country.

Why do the dems hate the electoral college when they lose but when they win they are the first ones to say it’s in the constitution so you can’t challenge it they only like the constitution when it helps them but saying that I know Mikey p could not turn over the elections but considering it was the most divisive election in history and it was during a pandemic where there were a lot of mail in ballots and also the way it was covered on election night that was saying trump was winning then the next day or in the middle of the night it changed what’s wrong with congress taking there time to look at things and make sure there was no cheating since democrats have absolutely been known to cheat in local elections what’s the big deal about proving to the American people that there votes were counted but I guess now it doesn’t matter because now we have Biden and the housing market is a mess inflation is thru the roof and gas is 5$ a gallon what a mess in just 2 years for the guy who was supposed to bring the country together 😂 Scranton Joe showing he does not care about middle class
