11:01 pm
happening. >> now, breaking news and extraordinary repudiation of donald trump s former vice president mike pence declares he cannot, in good conscious his words endorse his former boss. we're getting reaction depends is decision as some of the other republicans are rally behind trump and his bid to return to the white house also breaking trump's special prosecutor, nathan wade, just resigned in georgia after a judge ruled district attorney fani willis may stay on the election interference case only if wade fall good quips are experts are breaking down the decision and what it means for the former president all of this coming as trump just secured a delayed in his first criminal trial, a new victory in his efforts to drag out his multiple legal cases until after the election welcome to our viewers here in the united states and around the world, i
11:02 pm
will blitzer a year in the situation room >> the skis, cnn, breaking news, let's get right to the breaking news. donald trump's former vice president publicly refuses to endorse him as their split over the events of january 6 and other issues reaches a new level cns kristen holmes is working. there's dramatic had a development for us. kristen, tell us what pence is exactly. say, hello, this is both surprising and unsurprising at the same time, the two men had a very fractured relations kinship after what happened on january 6, and tense ran against donald trump for office. however, he is still the former vice president to donald trump it in factoring debate was asked of the crowd of all the candidates. if they would support former president donald trump, even if he was convicted of a crime and pens raised his hand. now, pence's unequivocally answering the question of whether or not he would endorse donald trump.
11:03 pm
take a lesson donald trump is pursuing an articulating an agenda that is at odds with the conservative agenda that we governed >> on during our four years. and that's why i cannot in good conscience endorsed donald trump in this campaign. >> again, this is fairly striking given that he stood by him for four years. he was his former vice president. but the two men completely fell apart. how to fracture relationship after january 6 after trump and his allies mounted in extensive pressure campaign on former vice president mike pence not to certify the 2020 election to overturn those results. and as we know a pence did not do so ended up certifying that election. pence himself has said that his life was in danger on january 6 when he ran against donald trump for president this cycle before dropping out he stood up to the president over january sex saying that trump was wrong about what happened with the election. who's wrong about what role pence could play trump for his part, has continued to attack penzi it's called him week saying that he
11:04 pm
didn't have the courage to do what needed to be done despite the fact that again, for four years, pence was a loyal soldier to the former for president. pence after dropping out, has launched a new initiative to raise $20 for quote, unquote conservative principles. i've talked to many of his senior advisers who say they're really trying to find a lane for him to carve out as a reagan republican that has seemed to disappear because as we remember pence was brought onto trump's ticket back in 2016 to serve as the anchor for donald trump to give him that gravitas with the republican party, with evangelical voters by the end of his time in the cycle in 2024 became clear there was no real role for mike pence in the republican party, but a lot of questions as to how he was going to handle this kind of endorsement. was he just going to kick the can down the road? was he going to say he would answer that at a later date, but he was very unequivocal in saying that he would not be supporting or endorsing former
11:05 pm
president donald trump. >> kristen, i want you to stay with us. i also want to bring in cnn senior political analyst, gloria borger, former advisor to vice president pence, olivia troy, and cnn senior political analyst, ron brownstein is joining us as well. gloria, this is truly a monumental shift for pence after loyalty he serving as trump's vice president. what's your reaction? >> well, my reaction is that pence's fashioning himself right now as the keeper of conservatism, as it was defined by ronald reagan and that may sound like a throwback, but but that's what he wants to do. and in speaking about this, he said that that donald trump has strayed from the conservative route. and on the debt on the issue of abortion, even on getting tough on china by switching his position, for example, on tik talk. and he didn't so much raise the january 6 issue, which we know is very much still there and in
11:06 pm
the ether but he's carving out this lane and trying to be the protector of conservatism as it's been known for decades before donald trump took office >> olivia troy, you worked for mike pence in the white house. how surprised by this, are you? and what do you think drove this dramatic announcement from pests? >> i think i'm fairly shocked to see him come out so forcefully and actually fairly early on before the november election. but i'm proud of him i have been waiting for this moment for a long time. i believed that he had this in him. >> i've seen it. it's there >> so i think to flores point, i also think that what he's been watching is what's happening with ukraine because it's one thing about my pencils at really knows his foreign policy. he has always been a jes, a reagan conservative. and
11:07 pm
i think he finds that appalling right now what's happening in congress and seeing how we continue to fall when it comes to standard against russia. and then i think that that's something that is probably very alarming to him and he's seen trump continue to stoke these flames. and i think that is a big thing. and i think the big question is what will he do when it comes to the natives? nepo, remember election and who will he supported that? and what will he continue to say going forward >> ron brownstein, what kind of a political impact of trump's former vice president saying he can't endorse him. what kind of political impact you think that could have on this 2024 campaign? >> i think the real issue is, does it open the door for others to follow you know, as gloria said, pence position himself as someone upholding the reaganite flame against the trump populism and isolationism in the republican party. someone else who ran in that mode in that lane was nikki haley and there are obviously a
11:08 pm
number of national security officials from trump's first term, from john bolton to mark esper, who have come out and said that they do not believe he is fit to be president. again, does pence provide room for these kinds of people two, in a more coordinated way. make that case to the public. the reason why this is so significant politically, i think. is that primarily because of inflation, it is highly likely that joe biden will not match his 2020 numbers among working class voters of all races, including black and hispanic voters. and that means to make up for it. he needs the kind need to improve further among the kinds of problems looking leaning independents who have always been ambivalent and bested trump and or potentially the most receptive from the kind of messages they may hear from mike pence or nikki haley, or others. if pence, in fact inspires others to follow and good good point. kristen, just last year as all of us remember, mike pence said he would vote vote for trump
11:09 pm
even if trump was convicted of a felony during that was during a presidential debates. so what do you think changed? >> look, i can't say what has changed, but i have talked to a number of people around mike pence who really do not like the former president. they don't like what he stands for. they do not like what he was doing to the conservative party. and i would assume that that extends to the former vice president as well. like pans continue to get stronger and stronger in his messaging against donald trump over the course of his election, over the course of his rod in 22 24 before ultimately dropping out. and he made a definitive decision here and to be very clear, he could have easily just said, oh, i'll talk about that later. i'm not going to do anything on that right now. he made a decision going into that interview that he was going to say that he was hundred percent not endorsing donald trump. he has come along away from when he started. i do want to remind viewers that when he came into the race early in 2024, he was still really hard on the pence
11:10 pm
trump administration going in on that saying that they work together as a team. so we have come a long way from that break. >> well, he's still saying they work together as a team, but it was good then. and trump on his own is bad now. and what's so remarkable about this? it's when you think of the years of the trump administration that mike pence was, he always used to say, we stand on the strong shoulders of donald will trump. and he was the most loyal soldier in the administration. and then there was the break and the big break was january 6. and then it got worse and worse. and the people around donald trump don't want anything to do with donald trump. and i think mike pence feels exactly the same way. >> yeah, very dramatic development indeed, and potentially very significant as well, guys. thank you very, very much. and we have more breaking news just ahead on trump's criminal prosecution in georgia, the special prosecutor calling it quits after the judge says its own,

by skechers slip in pants. >> this tiny homes trend now, this is more like it. the same goes for my footwear. why, one hands-free with wide fits, get your slip dry wipe fit, sketcher slip in we're following more breaking news. this our special prosecutor, nathan wade is out and district attorney fani willis gets to stay on the trump criminal case in georgia. that's the bottom line tonight, after the presiding judge issued his high-stakes ruling on efforts to disqualify if i willis. cnn's chief legal affairs correspondent for paula reid. work you the story for us, paula, give us the latest. >> the district attorney, fani willis, in accepting nathan wade's resignation, wrote this wolf, i will always remember that you were brave enough to step forward and take on the investigation and prosecution q. you are the one who had the courage to accept the role, even though you did not seek it. now that wade has resigned, willis will remain on the case. the judge found that willis did not engage in a scheme to
11:16 pm
corruptly profit off of this he said that the defendants did not prove this alleged conflict, but she did not come out unscathed. the judge wrote, quote, the finding is by no means an indication that the court condones this tremendous lapse in judgment on the unprofessional manner of the district attorney in his testimony during the evidentiary hearing, the judge went through the difference between an actual conflict and the appearance of conflict, and admonished both willis and wade for their conduct with the judge said, quote, put a cloud over this case affirms of what happened. next happens next. trump's attorneys have signaled they will engage in additional litigation. they said, quote we believe that the court did not afford appropriate significance to the prosecutorial misconduct of willis and wade. we will use all legal options funds available as we continue to fight to end this case. now, fani willis had originally said she wanted to take this case to trial in august. that was before before these proceedings to disqualify her. well, if that always seemed like an
11:17 pm
aggressive timeline for a sprawling rico case with so many defendants but now we've had several months of proceedings about possible disqualification and you'll also need to find a new prosecutor to lead this case. so it appears highly unlikely this case we'll go before november interesting. >> and paul, i understand there's a >> update and trump's new york hush money case as well. what's that? >> that's right. this was the first criminal case against former president trump that was expected to go is scheduled for march 25th. now, last night, prosecutors say they would not object to a 30 day delay. trump's attorneys are asking to delay the case 90 days so that both sides have a chance to go through tens of thousands of pages of new evidence. so the judge just weighed in saying that on march 25th the day the trial was supposed to start, he is going to hold a hearing. and at that time he will set a new trial date, if necessary. and in the meantime, while he has adjourned the case, so suspended it for 30 days. so at this point, it is
11:18 pm
unclear when exactly that case will start. >> paula reid reporting for us. thank you very much. there's certainly a lot to discuss with our legal and political experts and michael moore. let me start with you. what's your reaction to this ruling as well as this letter from fani willis accepting waves resignation from this case well, i'm glad to be with all of you. >> i think the >> resignation was a long time coming and we could have avoided a lot of the shenanigans over the last few months. if she had just seen fit to take him off the case when the issue was raised not to mention to not be in the position that brought us to this place to begin in width. so he didn't have a choice but to resign. i think that was clearly written. it was either him or her and it was clearly going to be him and that's where we are. but this this order, it's never a good day if you're a lawyer to have a judge say that you're basically not believable into suggested the other bodies like the state bar and the ethic it's commission and the legislature might be able to do something about it, but you as a judge,
11:19 pm
feel constrained to not do it to comply with the law. so while it's a win for her to stay in the case, certainly she did not come out of this without what i think would be more problems i don't think we've heard the end other friday, i think this is you're gonna be an opinion that is trumpeted around both in congress and likely in the georgia legislature, is they look at ways to try to control prosecutions that they don't like. and so i think we've not heard the last of this are the scathing rebuke in the order on that point amy lee copeland, the judge found the defendants did establish what the judge calls the appearance of impropriety. so why is willis being allowed to stay on this case? >> wolff appearance of impropriety on itself usually doesn't result in disqualification. the georgia supreme court has talked about an appearance of lawyer conduct in cases. and in this, they said there needs to be some remedies, but it
11:20 pm
disqualification is really extreme. that really gets in the way of the client's wishes. >> so that is what hi, judge mcafee said either willis and her office go or nathan wade goes. and so mr. wade tendered his resignation, which the district attorney accepted yeah very dramatic development indeed on kush i want to get your thoughts as well, judge mcafee says the evidence didn't show financial benefit, but he also writes this and i'm quoting him now, reasonable members of the public could easily be left to wonder whether the financial exchanges have continued resulting thing in some form of benefit to the district attorney, how do you interpret that >> so look, i interpret that as an expression of the judges skepticism about the testimony that he got from ms willis and wade, that skepticism permeates the opinion. a paula paula referred to it this is a bad opinion for the da hey, i mean, it's good in the sense that she cleared their near-term roadblock, but no prosecutor
11:21 pm
wants to see an opinion like this written about them. it escaping. and she has a problem now and it's not a courtroom problem. it is a problem with their constituents who also happen to be the jury pool and those people are going to be reading this opinion two, they're gonna be following the news and she's going to have a lot of work to do to try to repair and restore her credibility to try to keep this case on track. it's unclear to me based on what we've seen for the last few months that she's up to the task, but i hope so. >> whether you make very important points in d1 and gloria borger, donald trump weighed in on all of this just a short while ago. he wrote this and i'm quoting him now, the fani willis lover, mr. nathan wade, esquire, as just resigned in disgrace. nathan with the special in more ways than one prosecutor engaged by fani pronounced fani willis to prosecute, to persecute trump for crooked joe biden and his department of injustice for purposes of election interference and living the life of the rich and famous so what do you make of this? >> well, this has just donald
11:22 pm
trump gloating, which is something i think we've come to expect in a way. his team did have a real victory, even though fani willis is staying on the case. this is going to delay the case for him and i think he's should be very happy about that. but this gives him an opportunity to continue to undermine the justice department. the way cases are conducted. and even though this is a state case, it's going to be important in the election because it's the state of georgia, which is a very important kaye state. and it's up for grabs and if he can continue to say that the district attorney, who's up for reelection in the state of georgia was playing hanky panky here with my future. it could help him in the general election. yeah, georgia has emerged as a real battle >> indeed, michael
11:23 pm
>> how much will losing lead prosecutor nathan wade set this case potentially back, and how will she replace him? >> well, the district attorney's office in fulton county is the largest in the state, and there are plenty of assistance and capable lawyers you could step in and we saw some lawyers argue on the da's behalf during the motion process. so there are people that can cut me and they're also lawyers all over the country willing to call it and try to get involved in this case. that obviously not just the notoriety, but the historical nature of it draws people in and so there are plenty of lawyers out there who will get in you you've got to there were special assistant das ms cross is one of them another lawyer who the rico specialists. this there are people who will step in the case, can move forward. the question will be whether or not there's an appeal from this. well, they asked the appellate court to reconsider this and the same time. will the da as
11:24 pm
appellate court to consider judge macrophase dismissal of six of the counts that are out so those are things that you know, that also a bode well for trump and his effort to continue to push this case, but past the election. and i've just frankly thing there's no way that this case gets heard before the end of the year >> interesting. all of you make really important and excellent points thanks to all of you for joining us and just ahead, we'll have later on, israel's war against hamas, why prime minister benjamin of tenure is defined, president biden, and what it means for military operations in gaza why choose asleep numbers smart bad? can >> it keep me warm when i'm cold? >> wait, no, i'm always hot. >> sleep number. does that can i make my side softer? >> i think my side firmer speak number. does that can help us sleep better and better? >> sleep number does that 94% of smart sleepers report better

11:28 pm
don't wait- call today. with freelance ai fiber, vegas >> the story of sin city. sunday at ten on cnn on capitol hill. tonight's start new evidence of the growing partisan divide over israel senate republican leader mitch mcconnell is ramping up as harsh criticism of the majority leader, chuck schumer after shubert stunning call for new leadership in israel. let's get
11:29 pm
some more from our capitol hill reporter, melanie zanona right now. melanie, how is mcconnell responding to schumer in this new cnn interview? >> yeah. this was an incredibly sharp rebuke from mitch mcconnell. he had already taken to the senate floor. remember yesterday to lambaste chuck schumer over his calls for new leadership in israel, but in a new exclusive interview with our manu raju macondo really escalated his rhetoric and said, schumer's speech as a direct contradiction of not only united states policy but also democratic policy. let me read you part of what mcconnell told motto, he said, you can't spend years hyperventilating about foreign interference in our democracy then turn around and tell allies, particularly democratic allies, who their leaders should be. and when they should have elections. and then mcconnell went on to criticize and attack schumer directly, who is the highest-ranking jewish official in the country saying, just because he's jewish, doesn't give him a pass to advocate something that's completely
11:30 pm
inconsistent with our path. approach to democratic countries. so some very strong criticism there from mitch mcconnell and it really does underscore the growing partisan divide over israel, an issue that tradition finally has really united both parties. now, you have a growing number of democrats, particularly on the left, who are calling for any aid or conditions, excuse me, on any aid to israel in order to tamp down civilian deaths in gaza? something mcconnell outright rejected in this interview. now, schumer's office did not respond to this new criticism from mcconnell, but they did point us to a post from an israeli opposition liter saying that this speech is just proof that netanyahu is losing some of his biggest supporters in the united states >> well, hi melanie. thank you, melanie zanona, up on capitol hill. all of this comes as the israeli prime minister benjamin attorney is defying president biden announcing plans to go ahead with military operations in rafah, a city in southern gaza, home to some 1.4 million
11:31 pm
palestinians are chief national security correspondent, alex marquardt is getting details for us. alex, what do we know? how about this looming military offensive that the prime minister apparently now supports. >> he certainly does support. he said for quite some time that this is the plan and now his office as saying that the idf is preparing he be operational side of this operation and for the evacuation of those warden 0.4 million palestinians wolf, that is really the major concern here. we heard president biden last weekend saying that israel going into rafah is a red line because administration has walked that back a little bit saying that they want to see a comprehensive plan for what israel intends to do with those 1.4 million palestinians here's what the secretary of state had say earlier today. take a listen >> president biden has been very clear that given the large number of civilians in rafah, about 1.4 million, we have to see a clear and implementable plan not only to get civilians
11:32 pm
out of harm's way, but also to make sure that once out of harm's way, they're appropriately cared for with shelter, with food, with medicine, with clothing. and we've not yet seen such a plan so the expectation is that this would be a major offensive. the only real detail we've gotten from the idf is that they plan to put these civilians and what they're calling humanitarian enclaves. there'll be supported by the international community, but clearly wolf the biden ministration wants a lot more detail. for their supportive of israel's plans and rafah, tensions with the israeli government, very, very strong right now for the first time on another related issue, humanitarian aid, i understand alex has started arriving in gaza by sea how far does this go? >> this was a mission that was carried out by world central kitchen ngo wolf, and they shipped in some 200 tons of aid of food. that's about half 1 million meals now, that's a good number, but broadly speaking, a lot more as needed. that's a lot more than say those airdrops, the us carrying out its 11th airdropped today
11:33 pm
on america in plane dropping some 36,000 meals. so half 1 million versus 36,000, the ships are are putting in a lot more meals than those planes. but world central kitchen wolf now saying that they're preparing another ship with 300 more tons. this is separate wool from the maritime corridor that the us is preparing with other allies that will take some two months to prepare with that peer that the dod and others are building. the bottom line here, wolf is any aid helps, but the us continues to pressure israel to open up more land crossings. to flood the zone, to flood gaza, particularly northern gaza, with more desperately needed aid, >> wolf, alex marquardt with the latest thank you very much joining us now a key democrat in congress, representative debbie dingell, a michigan congresswoman. thanks so much for joining us. what specifically do you think the biden administration should do if israel? but where to invade rafah >> i think the president made
11:34 pm
clear that that was a red line. now, as you've heard this secretary speak and others, there are more than 1.4 million people that have been moved from gazan into that corner >> only >> 2.2 million people in the entire the country. they have no food, they have no place to live, they have no shelter. there are no toilets there, no showers or medical. these people have to be kept safe. we've seen somewhere between 12.14 thousand children killed. i don't think anybody wants to see more civilians killed so i don't think we have a clear picture of what is being planned, how they say they're going to keep civilian safe. but they cannot kill more innocent civilians, and they cannot more innocent children what's your reaction, congresswoman to these comments from senator mitch mcconnell was schumer, the democratic leader was schumer wrong to call for new >> elections in israel so i would never senator schumer is the highest jewish official in
11:35 pm
this country. and i think he expressed the thoughts of many people were the personal comments were the official comment. i don't know, but i think many people look what have my skid was a terrorist act we want those hostages home, but nobody can sit and watch. what is happening right now. the innocent lives of so many civilians and not want something to happen that is going to stop this thinking new deck there. hamas does need to be addressed, but there are too many people dying and it's got to be stuck. >> yeah, senator schumer, the majority leader, he made those comments on the floor of the senate during a 40 minute speech or sounds like pretty official statement. indeed as you know, how did these zip more critical comments about israel in an attack? from president biden and other influential democrats impact michigan voters, many of whom are upset with president biden's handling of israel's war against hamas. as you well
