I'm Lou Dobbs with the Great America Midday Update for February 29th.
00:00:04.680
That's right, this is our bonus day in the leap year.
00:00:08.120
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear the Special Counsel's request to determine if President Trump has absolute immunity.
00:00:16.240
Well, Jack Smith, the Special Counsel, got his wish, and something tells me he's already very sorry he prodded the Supreme Court.
00:00:23.540
Jack Smith's existence in his vicious prosecution of President Trump makes the case for absolute immunity.
00:00:31.520
Immunity already given judges, senators, and congressmen.
00:00:35.120
Then there's every question about Smith's legitimacy as a Special Counsel.
00:00:40.080
He was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland, not by the President as required by law.
00:00:46.500
Former Attorney General Ed Meese took that argument to the High Court.
00:00:53.540
Joe Biden had his annual physical yesterday, no new issues, but plenty of ailments, apnea sleep disorder that is linked to dementia,
00:01:02.640
heart and cholesterol conditions, and the risk of stroke.
00:01:08.600
But all in all, not terrible for a fellow his age, but certainly not what's needed to be running the nation and the free world,
00:01:16.280
as he has already amply demonstrated over his first three years in office.
00:01:22.240
The Fannie Willis hearing has become a public spectacle, a trial of the corruption of Willis and her lover, lead prosecutor Nathan Wade,
00:01:32.340
conspiring with the Biden White House to bring their prosecution against President Trump,
00:01:38.060
to receive federal monies for that prosecution, and to, well, to spend that money, let's say, unwisely,
00:01:45.040
and to have been an ethical conflict in their relationship, to have been caught lying on just about everything.
00:01:52.120
And now they face an ethics panel for their conduct.
00:01:55.640
Fannie said early in the hearing process that she wasn't on trial.
00:02:00.280
She couldn't have been more wrong, and she very likely will be disbarred.
00:02:04.680
If she isn't, there's even more corruption in Georgia than any of us thought.
00:02:20.680
