Failure to televise Trump’s federal trials will unleash flood of MAGA conspiracy theories
In light of the impending historic trials of former President Donald Trump on 91 criminal counts, House Democrats have begun advocating for passage of a bipartisan bill that would put cameras in federal courtrooms across the country.
"There's no substitute for people seeing proceedings for themselves and drawing their own conclusion," Rep. Glenn Ivey of Maryland, a former prosecutor, told CBS News.
The bill was authored by Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa before Trump was criminally indicted.
Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner has been agitating for televising Trump's federal proceedings for months.
