[4] It's Thursday, December 28th, and this is your Morning Wire afternoon update.
[5] The Colorado Republican Party has asked the U .S. Supreme Court to overturn the state's decision to remove Donald Trump from the ballot.
[6] The pending appeal means that for now, Trump will appear on the ballot for the Republican primary on March 5th, which is Super Tuesday.
[7] The Colorado Supreme Court used the 14th Amendment to rule that Trump is ineligible for the election because he allegedly engaged in insurrection on January 6th.
[8] A court in Michigan rejected a similar case there and kept Trump on the ballot.
[9] Now the decision is in the hands of the U .S. Supreme Court, which has never before ruled on the insurrection amendment.
[10] House Republicans suggested this week that President Biden could face an impeachment offense related to his son Hunter Biden's refusal to comply with a congressional subpoena.
[11] In a letter Wednesday, oversight chair James Comer and judiciary chair Jim Jordan demanded a series of documents and communications by the date of January 10th.
[12] Their committee, they said, is seeking to examine the evidence as, quote, part of our impeachment inquiry, whether the president engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct a proceeding of Congress.
[13] Congress.
[14] Hunter Biden refused a subpoena that he testified on December 13th, opting instead to hold a press conference on Capitol Hill.
[15] In that press conference, he decried Republicans' efforts to look into evidence of Biden family corruption.
[16] I'm here today to make sure that the House committee's illegitimate investigations of my family do not proceed on distortions, manipulated evidence, and lies.
[17] Let me state as clearly as I can.
[18] My father was not financially involved in my business.
[19] Several Democrat mayors are requesting help with the flood of illegal migrants into their self -proclaimed sanctuary cities.
[20] Among them is New York Mayor Eric Adams, who's been pleading with the Biden administration to do more to check the massive influx of migrants directly impacting his city.
[21] Adams has moved to restrict buses arriving in the city carrying migrants from the border.
[22] Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson is calling for immediate action from the administration to address the crisis.
[23] We have reached a critical point in this mission that absent real significant intervention immediately, our local economies are not designed and built to respond to this type of crisis.
[24] The Democrat mayor's cries for help come as illegal crossings have hit record numbers.
[25] In November alone, nearly a quarter of a million encounters were reported on the southern border.
[26] A total of 242 ,418 encounters were reported that breaks the all -time record for the month.
[27] Pro -Palestinian protesters blocked the roads into airports in New York in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
[28] The demonstrators stopped traffic on the expressway into JFK in New York for about 20 minutes.
[29] Video shows passengers feeling compelled to exit vehicles with their luggage and walk to the airport.
[30] At the same time in Los Angeles, dozens of protesters blocked off Century Boulevard, one of the main entrances to the airport by filling the road with trash bins, cones, scooters, and even concrete.
[31] According to LAPD, the protesters threw a policeman on the ground while attacking uninvolved passerbys in their vehicles.
[32] Thirty -six were arrested in L .A. and 26 were arrested in New York.
[33] Lauren Bobert will run for re -election in Colorado, but she is switching to a more conservative district.
[34] The Republican Congresswoman currently represents Colorado's third district.
[35] She was re -elected there in 2022 by a very narrow margin.
[36] Now she will run for Congress in Colorado's fourth district.
[37] A career criminal stabbed two teenage girls on Christmas Day in New York's Grand Central Terminal.
[38] 36 -year -old Steve Hutcherson stabbed the 14 and 16 -year -old girls who were visiting from Paraguay after what's been described as an anti -white rant.
[39] Just two weeks prior, prosecutors tried to have Hutcherson put in a psychiatric program on December 12th, but a judge released him.
[40] He's been arrested a total of 17 times.
[41] All right, those are your drive -home updates this afternoon.
