Summary

President Trump's second impeachment trial begins today. House Democrats prosecuting the case are calling it the most grievous constitutional crime ever committed by a President. The Trump legal team calls it political, arguing there is no evidence that former President Trump called for any kind of violence. Jonathan Turley, professor of public interest law at George Washington University and a FOX News Contributor weights in on whether the Trump impeachment is constitutional and what evidence will be presented. Turley also discusses the death threats he and his family received after he was a witness on the first impeachment trial against President Trump. President Biden is moving forward with his $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package, which includes $1,400 stimulus checks. Charles Payne, host of Making Money with Charles Payne on Fox Business discusses the relief bill's impact on the economy, the child tax credit, and how blue states are being bailed out. Plus, commentary by Jimmy Failla, host of "Fox Across America." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
