the, the business needs of the news line from the totals from pleads not guilty in a federal court. the former us president turned himself into authorities in washington, dc to face his most serious criminal charges, yet he denies puffing to of a tough job. i just went in the 2020 election also coming up in these yet

independence day celebrations. mix with pro cool rallies, the national colors by a long russian flags as the jazz top of pointedly to valves to bring fresh connections at the women's world cup a shop to speak for germany the to time when is knocked out in the group stages, columbia, and to rock co and fonts to the last 16, the welcome to the program. fully us president donald trump has pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiring to overturn his defeat. in the 2020 election, trump flew by private plane for the court appearance. this is the 3rd set of criminal charges he faces and is seen as the most serious. it's not clear whether

it could dwell his efforts to return to the white house in the 2024 election. the judge has set the next hearing for august 28th. while the former president had this message before flying back home to new jersey. this is a very sad day for america. when you look at what's happening, this is a persecution of a political opponent. this was never supposed to happen in america. the persecution of the 1st of that, leading by very, very substantial numbers and the republican primary and leading vice by a lot of you can't read a new person or you prosecute them. we can't let this happen in america. thank you very much. when i let spring and dw stesan simons in washington dc, so just give us a sense if on all the what from faced in court today. it's all

for us to do. this is just let me just briefly say this is of course what we heard here is the president former president's take on what happened today. there is of course, the other side were says he was arrested for the 3rd time. now and arrange for the 3rd time this time now, because he'd committed criminal legs, he broke the law. so this is not a political persecution as he claims it. i would just want to make this clear. now, why is that important? because it made for some really, really awkward moments today in court in the federal court building here in washington, dc goes to form president phased the special council jack smith, the department of justice, special ed counsel deck smith, who brought those charges forward. and i bet that made for some awkward moments. however, the platform president was advised by the judge, what he can do, what he can do, you can tamper with written is you can reach out to this person or that person,

this kind of stuff. and of course, the judge also asked, do you understand the charges? how do you plead the former president pleaded not guilty to fall for charges, felony charges all. and that was pretty much it and back home to is a golf club in back minster, new jersey. right, so he's done some with denying any wrong doing, and yet he still is competing to leads the republican party. what will this mean for how you associates might see this a well, that's a very, very good question. and guess what? nobody knows really, but i can tell you that that tens of millions of dollars. busy campaign donation money are now diverted to the defense fund of donald trump. he did this before. $40000000.00 already used for his personal defense. now this,

those dollars 25 dollars, 3050 in any amount. those comes from these, these, this money comes from people who believe in donald trump and they want donald trump back and he will use exactly what happened today. the search arrangement, the search arrest. and don't forget, there might be a 4th one coming in georgia. just maybe at the end of the month or little bit later, i don't, we'll use those in his mind. persecutions to raise more funds to campaign, to put his foot down on the neck on any other contender in the g o. p in the republican party. and do you know, as we all know, there are few people want to become the republican president or probably republican candidate in the presidential election next year. don't. so we'll do everything he can to prevent this from happening and to run next year as presidential candidate for the republican party. right, so now moving forward, what is the quotes going to do next?

and what kind of sentence could trump face if convicted the so he wouldn't be convicted on the statuary, the full amount of statuary last there that could bring him between 50 and 70 years in prison, if he would be convicted guilty. and they would really throw the book at him to every charge. now, is this like the? no, it's not. i'm the put a former president into prison for 50 to 70 years. i don't know. probably not like, anyhow, what will happen next at the end of august, there will be another hearing. so this judge you, in the federal court is not going to wait around much and will, they'll stop the trial. and that is not to the benefit by the way of donald trump, because he wants to draw this out as long as possible. but the closer donald trump's judicial legal trouble goes to the 2024 presidential election is the better for him because there we are in uncharted territory, politically speaking and as

a country historic, it is as it, as it wants to be in will it is historic, it is unprecedented, but it is also unprecedented. and what is this country? what is politically happening? it as soon as we coming closer to the presidential election in next year. and what will this mean for donald trump and his legal troubles? nobody knows. indeed, a lot to look forward to and, and unpack the thank you very much in days just on simon's in washington dc. i know hundreds of people have rallied in that needs as capital in the army and support of the military to which else the president will have it. but soon, the riley comes as he just celebrates its independence day from former colonial power friends and c for and sentiments has been running high since the cool independence tanisha. that's what supposes of the military junta say that
