12:02 am
ah wrong to the news. our former us president donald trump will appear in new york court on tuesday. the 1st former president to face criminal charges the case against him involves a hush money payment to adult film star stormy daniels out of the 2016 election. trump, who was formerly indicted on thursday, is expected to plead not guilty to the charges for the expect to the trump will voluntarily surrender, meaning he won't be arrested. will be processed as a defendant, meaning he'll be fingerprinted and have mug shot taken. trump is expected to appear in person for his arraignment on tuesday. next week, we'll have the charges against him read in court, and to replete them be released with another court date. he won't have to post bail legal experts say he still at least a year away from actually going on trial. meaning he could be in court during the
12:03 am
2024 presidential election. the u. s. does not bar people from running for office over legal cases. so trump will be allowed to stand is also facing multiple other investigations by the justice department, district attorneys in manhattan and georgia. and a new york attorney general is possible to lend up in court again in one of those cases. we're to gabriel, alexander, whose live for us in new york and gave a truly historic moment one. i imagine that still sinking in their it really is, this is really going to be historic and unprecedented. and a lot of times that word unprecedented is over used. it really isn't when it comes to this situation. never before, as we've said before, and we'll continue to see over the coming days as a former or current u. s. president. ever in us history faced criminal charges? well that has now all changed with this indictment against donald trump. i want to
12:04 am
unpack this indictment just a little bit more. it is about this hush money payment, allegedly paid to this ex adult film star that trump had an affair with. he denies that she doesn't deny that at all, but that in of itself and paying her $130000.00 to keep quiet isn't necessarily a crime what the district attorney was investigating here. and what the grand jury indicted trump on was. how that money was paid to her, allegedly it is there have been investigating if trump, in the course of paying that money through an intermediary, if he falsified business records, which would be a crime here in new york, but also even more seriously if he intentionally misled in order to cover up another crime, which could be a campaign,
12:05 am
a violation of campaign finance laws. i know that's a lot there, but it's important. understand the full context of what the charges are or what they were investigating. trumpets not just about the alleged affair, or the hush money payment, now trumpet denies all wrong doing whatsoever. and his lawyers said that they will vigorously fight this in court. and in the court of public opinion as well, listen to what one of trump's lawyers had to say. this is a historic case, a monumental his, his lap will have wide reaching ramifications and it, it really to day in, i feel very concerned about the rules on this country because it endangers the rule of law for all americans to dates donald trump, to march the democrat of the day after it, sir, and wrote your friend the day after that that you were me. and that's what concerns we when a prosecutor couldn't use the law and the system to go west or political opponent,
12:06 am
it's something that frightens me. and gabriel, we've established that say he will be fingerprinted. he will have more shots taken, but he won't be in handcuffs. nevertheless, his presence their next tuesday, i much will be a huge security effort. it is and it got way. and last week, there already sick secret service agents that were here last week, kind of scoping out the area in anticipation of a potential indictment. it's not only the secret service involved, but it's also the f b i as well as the new york police department, the biggest police department in the united states and the biggest in the world for any police department, by the way. and also the security personnel at the da's office behind me and at the court. incredible undertaking. whenever an ex president goes anywhere, there's a lot of security, even an ex president because they have secret service. but in this situation where an ex president has to turn himself in to
12:07 am
a court to the district attorney's office, it's just, there's so many an answered question, sir. will there be protests which trump has called for? protest will be pro trump. protests, anti trump? protests will they bring him in through an underground parking lot, so no one can see him. will he asked to go through the front door of the court and addressed the media as some have speculated. these are all of the security arrangements now for all of the eventualities. it could unfold here on tuesday that are now being run through with security officials throughout new york to figure out how they will make this happen and make it happen safely. let be very, very interesting choreography. whatever happens, amanda gabriel is on the 11 new york. many thanks. oh, with a view from washington d. c. his she have returns he the political responses mainly coming on social media because congress itself went into recess on thursday, just hours before the leaks began about the criminal indictment having been,
12:08 am
haven't been decided upon. and so we're getting the house republicans where there's a huge block of trump support, largely repeating donald trump's accusations. this is a politically motivated prosecution. we have marjorie taylor green, a key republican ally in the house so that she will be there on cheese. that is off of the supporters to rally on she is a to protest and protect the constitution against against this legitimate prosecution from the district attorney's office. and that also calls for more investigations or investigations for in congress, off the off the manhattan da. because the republican side is all politically motivated and interesting. the, now the man da has responded to those charges off. the indictment being politically motivated by saying we urge you to refrain from these inflammatory accusations, withdraw, you will demand for inclination and let the criminal justice process proceed
12:09 am
without unlawful political interference, unlawful political interference. that's not happening, da, now saying that the congress has caused more information and potentially in inquiry, maybe unlawful of this, couldn't get anymore constitutionally fraud. having said that, when you to look at senate republicans, we're not seeing any, any comments as yet in the senate. after the mid terms. we've definitely seen amongst the leadership and others, this desire to move on from, from because they feel that he may be a liability, especially with indictments, no matter what the, what is, what the republican base may think. there is that fair amongst other republicans in congress, but when it came to a general election, these indictments, this indictments may be a liability. also have trump support is dismissed. the indictment and repeated the accusation that the charges of political i mean there's all kinds of skeletons in the closet in that congress center that they do it,
12:10 am
they just haven't been caught. i mean, it could happen to me, it could happen to happen to anybody. and i think it's kind of scary and people need to wake up and see this. i'm actually, i think it's helping. i think he's going to get more votes. i think if i, if they're wanting democrats trying to get trump like, not to win again for helping to unpack this, even more is room for the pow skis, a former federal prosecutor from the u. s. he also tracks and reports on right wing extremism in the us. he joins us now from sarasota, florida. welcome to the news our so you all coming at this from a very interesting place because you were formerly a republican who defects it because you didn't like the direction of the party was go again. do you think that trump is going to really be able to resist attacking the court when he appears next tuesday? well that's, that's really an interesting question. is what pre trial release conditions is the judge going to impose on trump? i fully expect, given what we've seen so far,
12:11 am
the judge to order him that if he's gonna remain out on pre trial release, he cannot not try to attempt to harass, threaten or intimidate any of the witnesses, such as stormy daniels, michael cohen. any of the prosecutors, especially alvin brag or the judge. and now that's going to be a pretty big mine field for him. not to be able to, to post on social media, or to denigrate them and rally speeches, because that's his bread and butter. so it's going to be his best behavior, but what about is support? as you think they'll follow states as well, will they be able to resist getting involved actively in inverted commas? oh, i would have said that the new york protest was going to be minor if anything at all, tracking them as i do i, i follow on social media, many of the rabble rousers in new york. but the announcement today of the georgia congresswoman green going there to spearhead this protest that's really energized
12:12 am
the right on social media like i haven't really seen since prior to january 6th. so i think that she could draw a significant crowd and could bring in a number of people from outside the city of new york in there on tuesday. what if you could explain something for our international view is because the grand jury says something very unique in particular to the you, as can you briefly explain in terms of the work of the grand jury, what it takes to actually indict someone? well, that a grand jury is an investigative arm, really of the state. in other words, a prosecutor in the united states doesn't get to decide. they're going to charge somebody with a crime. they have to can be in a grand jury citizens from the community to hear the evidence and also why, where this is different from other trials is grand jurors can ask the witnesses questions themselves and converse with the witnesses. the other big difference between a grand jury and a regular trial is there is no defense attorney. there's no and that's why people
12:13 am
are critical of grand juries as far as them being easy to indict because there's no opposition in there. there's nobody presenting the opposite view right now. and what does this mean for the other investigations against trump? a for in total inside in the january 6 arrives, the mar logo documents, and the fulton county case. why was this one brought 1st? i'm really surprised, i honestly thought the fulton county case was going to come 1st because a lot of the evidence there is on tape. there were some delays because senators, like lindsey graham, for example, tried to block their subpoena and that slowed things down a little bit. but i really expected fulton county to come 1st because they had convened the grand jury a long time ago. the grand juries finished their work 2 months ago, and we still don't have any movement from the district attorney. now, there's one thing that people have speculated on is the georgia. the republicans in the georgia legislature passed a new law which allows them to more easily remove a prosecutor if they feel like they've done something wrong. and some have
12:14 am
speculated that that might have paused her for work. what is all of us mean politically, do thing for trump go for it? is there some suggestion? this indictment of the former president may actually help him in the primaries, make it more popular amongst his base? it does it energizes them? ah, he's raising a ton of money right now he's, he's sending out fundraiser e mails today and yesterday, over this indictment and raising a lot of cash. so in that respectable help in but i have to believe that a lot of the moderates in the party and there are many left. but the ones that are there are not going to want to go into the general election against joe biden. presumably, with a candidate who's under multiple criminal indictments, i can't imagine that that's going to, they're going to be very enthusiastic about that role. and i could really talk to you about this all nice and extra a turn of events. so the united states, so we're going to have to leave it there on for the palsky. former federal prosecutor speaking to us live from sarasota in florida. many thanks. thank you.
12:15 am
the president of valerie says, his country is willing to host long range russian strategic nuclear mythos 3 days after agreeing to host smallest tactical nuclear weapons. alexander lucas shanker is a close ally of president vladimir putin, and i'll bet a route to be used as a base for part of the invasion of neighboring ukraine. ok, shameka made his latest comments during his annual address to the nation. you will say, said he knows of western plans to invade his country from neighboring poland, and call for truth, for the war and ukraine. over larry kovalevsky as a representative of foreign affairs for the opposition united transitional cabinet of bella. ruth, he says rushes moves or endangering galleries. people have spoken about nuclear weapons in the lowest since long and they oppose this move. we voluntarily refused from nuclear weapons in 1990. and since then, there has been a complete consensus that will not do not need the nuclear weapons. we don't want

12:33 am
with lou . ah, welcome back of amanda, the top stories here. now just there are for me. u. s. president donald trump will appear in a new york court on tuesday. the 1st ex president to face criminal charges. the president of bella luce, alexander lucas jenko, says his country is willing to host long range russian strategic nuclear missiles.
12:34 am
3 days after agreeing to host small, a tactical nuclear weapons. ukrainians have been marking the one year anniversary of the recapture of the town of boucher president vladimir lensky, vowing to defeat what he calls russian evil. though mexico's president andras manuel lopez abra door has been greeted by protest as during a visit to the city of seo that horace. elsewhere, a blaze of the detention center kill 39 people and killed a further 27 and investigations underway into why 68 male migrants appeared, have been locked in their cell while the fire burned. the women were evacuated. 5 people have been arrested so far with one warrant, still pending. okay, well let's get more from john hallman, who's in mexico city. clearly, john, all of this is inflamed tension between the migrants and the authorities. it
12:35 am
doesn't appear to be a basing, judging by these protests, we've seen that there were $20.00 to $30.00 people around president lopez over at those costs. we are seeing small protests. we've seen very small protests around at all, sir. mexico city by the way, that visit of president hope is over, adored 2 qualities at wasn't because of this tragedy. and because of a desire primarily to see the victims, it was already pre organized. and it was to see government officials, we call and get confirmation yet if he's passed by the hospital where the injured from the attack, the many of it injected from not the attack, sorry, the fire being a being treated. so we're still trying to get information on that as to inflaming the situation between migrants and authorities. well, that situation has already been inflamed for quite some time. the situation in mexico is that the authorities and this isn't just the current administration, but pos ones, their primary objective is to stop migrates from getting to the north and to the
12:36 am
border with the united states. the reason for that is that the mexico us relationship really depends in paul or mexico being able to do that and being able to be if you like a wall further south of the united states so that it doesn't have to deal with. so many people trying to get into it. now the way that president group is over the door has gone about that is by sending out the national guard, which is quite a military militarized force to try and stop migrants, these detention centers. this one was one of them, there's dozens of those across the country that he's continued, which in which migrant say that they often are overcrowded, dirty, don't get enough food. so the primary objective for mexico is not to care so much from grants as to stop them getting to the united states. that is something that's come on the more scrutiny as a result of this fire. yeah, john and talking about scrutiny. all of this, of course, as cons to cold,
12:37 am
critical light on conditions within these kind of facilities do we expect there to be any improvements, any changes or president of his over adored has said that this has been one of the worst tragedies that happened during his administration, and he did say on friday in his morning press conference that he was going to stop a national commission for the human rights of migrants. so he is doing that. but you've also got to look at his pose at the moment. and i say that because off to this tragedy in which 39 people were killed, a horrifying act of negligence. and which someone in which you saw officials just walking past the so as the flames licked it, it, they haven't gone down a tool for him. so the key question is politically, why would he change the structure of this so much? would that be a cost for him? that doesn't seem to be so much tragedies like this one have happened before. not fires, perhaps, but trailers in which migrants have died in mexico. there have been fight it
12:38 am
