5:04 am
character." one cold trump, "fascinating and mysterious." he walks into the room and sets people up and i find that interesting, really. this one guy can do all of this, wow! that is what i think. the former president has been complaining that judge is going too fast and not living his attorneys block the jurors who could be against him but by law each side has the right to remove ten jurors without any reason, but the former president wants the right to remove more than that. he has also indicated if convicted here, he will appeal. >> if you look and you take a look, every legal scholar, every legal pundit said there should be no trial. speak with the former president says he does intend to testify and if he does, prosecutors say they tend to question him about the half a billion polar real estate fraud judgment found liable for sexually assaulting
5:05 am

everybody's social media presence and say, ," oh, what the heck does that mean?" >> that is actually part of the process in one of the reasons the president complaining about it, the defense can't go into social media post and some of the potential jurors. they found one person videoing a celebration on election night and trying to indicate, that person was in favor of joe biden work up within the prosecutor said, "no, they were posting a party happening in manhattan." if you are anti-trump and set it on fb, you they will get it and if pro-trump, they will find that all's well's thank you. >> ainsley: what if people are taking it down? >> lawrence: that is one of the things, also, the person for the defense questioning actually lied about it here they said they didn't post anything, no, really because a picture in a post talking about locking him

5:08 am
safety appearance before a federal prosecutor that is to respect the system, someone that should know the court system and how it works. i don't understand this. >> brian: you shouldn't lie. >> lawrence: what is it up with celebration, the height in a way that especially when you have the same people, a nonviolent offense allegedly have done and they are advocating for jail time for the guy, lock him up! >> ainsley: you are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. but you have elected officials that ran on, "i will lock him up and get rid of this guy does quote. >> brian: his daughter will benefit if he wins. he will get more money, and definitely should recuse himself if they care about the system. and i also found out i may be on the last one to know this, this was not a rotation thing. for example judge cannon was picked imported because of rotation. but this was not rotation and
5:09 am
judge merchan was selected for this. i didn't even know that. they handpicked them for this trial. >> steve: maybe he is the most fair trial judge in new york. >> ainsley: fair? if he were fair, he would gagged both sides. >> lawrence: his daughter was compromised. there was so much outrage in 2016 the people said, lock hillary up, and the former president said let's be bygones be bygones. the prosecutor, we don't need a system like that. he has shown more mercy to the democrats when actually credible case against them than they are showing against him. i just hope they understand what they were doing to the legal system. >> brian: write them a crazy three weeks. they have a shot of getting this done by memorial day. >> lawrence: president biden heading to philadelphia today in his third campaign stop in philadelphia this week. >> steve: jacqui heinrich from the one of the white house, hate. >> good morning to you guys.

5:11 am
biden's uncles death in world war ii as part of a larger story that donald trump is not worthy of serving as commander-in-chief. listen to this. >> my uncle, they call him bozey, my uncle bozey, an athlete and they told me as a kid he became an army air corps for the air force. he flew though single engine planes over war zones. he got shot down in new guinea. and they never found the body because it used to be there are a lot of cannibals for real. >> according to the pentagon, biden's uncle was a passenger on the plane to ditch in the pacific ocean for unknown reasons and both engines failed low altitude appeared and he is still missing. the u.s. government service record does not attribute his death to hostile action or to cannibals here there was, in fa, documented cannibals in the
5:12 am
region in the mid 20th century spirit a white house spokesman andrew bates did not acknowledge this discrepancy in the telling of the story when he delivered his statement for the press here and he said biden is making the case of honoring armed forces are not calling them suckers and losers against tying everything back to trump, guides. >> brian: which he allegedly said he denies or cope with the president leaves his uncle was eaten by cannibals. >> lawrence: right. >> brian: is that right? >> that is what it sounded like. >> steve: jacqui coming in the history the united states, is there any other president who would imply had an uncle invite cannibals? >> brian: can you look that one up? >> ike have to do a little research but i can certainly tr. my research this morning, i will get right back to you. >> lawrence: let's start with woodrow wilson and work our way back. thank you, jacqui.
5:13 am
>> ainsley: thank you, jacqui, his relative a plane crash in an area or there were cannibals. >> lawrence: we never had a more diverse president than him too, part of the black community. what else, hispanic community. he has every single fact. >> steve: whoever he is talking to, he needs their vote. unlike the amtrak conductor story which has been debunked a dozen times, he still tells that one. >> brian: i will say this one of the biggest stories is not reported widely, this is the first time he in april. we will follow that story. >> lawrence: it was on last week. >> ainsley: so good. >> brian: it is chilly and i'm losing consciousness. >> ainsley: you know what, doesn't mind. i like that. >> ainsley: brianna, just take a day off. when you set a record we should pointed out.

5:16 am
>> b>> steve: brooke, thank you very much. those google employees shot back at google and said, the company is terrible because they've got this contract hold nimbus with the israeli government. and it is essentially blood money is what they are saying. i wonder how many of the 28 are going, "you know what my didn't think they would fire me. now what will i do?" imagine if you were one of the parents. you had a good job at google and what was going through your head sitting in the bosses office complaining about his decisions was a good resume builder. >> ainsley: these protesters are essentially supporting hamas. they are supporting iran and iran has their videos out this morning from iran showing women struggling as morality police officers are shoving them into bands and arresting them for not wearing a job. one lady university student and journalist arrested from her house on tuesday after posting on x detained, tased and

5:18 am
fighters. we had a student on earlier today to talk about the state of columbia. why is she still there? she told us what it's like to be a student there. a watch. >> i think a lot of their lack of clear combination comes from academic freedom and free speech. and they haven't yet drawn the line between free speech and hate speech and said, "certain things aren't okay." and the reason is xyz, and that is scary. how am i supposed to respect leadership that can't do abcs and holding university values? i hoped that we would do better, especially in an institution like columbia, right? that is why i applied, we will leave the future generation. i'm scared. these leaders are our future generation. help! wake up america, where are we, really? >> ainsley: she is jewish. and she said she will stay at
