wrongdoing. combs has been accused of sexual assault and at least four other cases including a lawsuit by his former producer rodney jones who worked with combs on his latest love album. jones claims that for more than a year combs sexually harassed, drugged, and threatened him while working on the project. combs' attorney called the lawsuit "pure fiction" and jones a liar. now the department of homeland security released a statement confirming the raids in both cities, but they did not explain the reason behind the law enforcement action and said they would release more information as it becomes available. combs has denied any wrongdoing. norah. >> norah: developing story. carter evans, thank you. it was a wild day of legal rulings for donald trump. and it unfolded as the former president sat in a new york city courtroom. an appeals court lowered the amount of bond in his civil fraud judgment from nearly half a billion dollars to $175 million. the payment originally due today, now that deadline pushed

trial. >> i don't have a problem testifying. i did not do anything wrong. >> reporter: former president trump vowed to appeal the start of his criminal trial, but the judge told trump's lawyers today, "we will see you on april 15th." this trial could pull the candidate off the campaign trail for six weeks. norah. >> norah: robert costa, thank you. tonight millions of americans in at least 15 states are in the path of a dangerous spring storm. parts of south dakota were hit with the blizzard today, while areas in minnesota are digging out for more than a foot of snow on sunday. the same storm is also threatening the south with severe thunderstorms and possible tornadoes. a tornado watch is in effect in texas to arkansas. a few large twisters are possible along the i20 corridor for the next several hours as well as damaging winds and flash flooding. tonight there's a growing rift between the u.s. and israel after prime minister benjamin netanyahu denied of
