here to respond trump 2024 senior advisor alina habba. good to have you with us at.rmer president might not be up to a debate and that is why he says he is running scared from the previously announced abc debate. >> i'm literally at a loss martha. i was laughing when i listen to that. for anyone to say that donald trump is afraid. i don't know if you have not been watching the news but if there's one thing you cannot call president trump and that is a fearful person especially after what has transpired the last two weeks. i'm insulted and offended by those comments and remarks. secondly i echo your sentiments. he's not only not afraid but bring it on. under american terms. not under cnn and your stations with your terms and mics off because you are afraid. number 2 we have a vice president who is not the candidate yet and you are right martha and also by the way everyone is getting excited but this is the same person who never went to the border or did anything. there's nothing to be afraid about. her record is a big zero. so no, president trump is not afraid. i love

we'll also hear from trump's attorney alina habba, his son eric trump and celebrity wrestler, hulk hogan and that was our raquel martin reporting tonight. meanwhile, lawmakers, lots of republican lawmakers are looking for answers with that assassination attempt on former president trump over the weekend and some of them are taking matters into their own hands. >> it kind of a wild moment. lawmakers started running after the head of the secret service. kimberly cheatle demanding answers today. this is at the convention cheetle didn't end up giving a substantive answer. >> we followed her through a mezzanine up some stairs up, a skip, getting faster and faster and we're trying to get answers. oliver well, flynn. >> lawmakers say the secret service identified the 20 year-old gunman as a threat an hour out from the event 40 minutes before the shooting day say they saw him looking through a range finder. and at 5.53 local time in pennsylvania saturday about 20 minutes before the shooting they say they saw him looking through a range finder again. >> take the stage knowing there was a threat r

he's there also the former president's lawyers including todd blanche, emil bove, a alina habba, who is expected to speak tonight. they've been with him most of the week. we've seen them walking as well it's just fascinating. >> shermichael -asco, jason aldean being there and his wife, jason aldean, of course, was performing in las vegas when there was that horrific mass shooting. obviously, he is no trump supporter forming but, you know, when you talk about the importance of the night and obviously trump is appearing speaking for the first time since the attempted assassination that connection can't go on with this noise, certainly can't go unnoticed. >> and look, you saw the past are talking about the millimeter difference i was looking at twitter, seeing where people were posting about it, and a bunch of my republican, conservative friends were saying how people in that that crowd were standing and cheering because to alyssa's point earlier, there is a religiosity to this and a lot of those evangelicals they do believe that trump is somehow ordained by god, whether you agree with

we will analyze new findings and former president trump's legal analyst alina habba will join us. harris: tonight is the night and you can probably hear them warming up behind me for ending of the rnc convention. before that happens, president donald j trump will accept the republican nomination and it will be on the stage behind me. they lit up the balloons, it is spectacular sight. trumps he's rewritten his a acceptance speech following his assassination attempt five days ago. we heard from ohio senator j.d. vance last night, he talked about appreciation for the former president and deep rooted history in rural kentucky. vance told how he wanted to be buried there with his family. >> in that cemetery, there are people born around the time of civil war. if, as i hope, my wife and i are laid to rest there and our kids follow us, there will be seven generations in that smoul mountain cemetery plot, seven generations of people who fought for this country, built this country and made things in th country and would fight to protect this country if asked to. that is not just an idea, m

trump legal advisor alina habba telling us earlier the court made the right decision. >> i think the american people think that these cases should never have existed. let's just be clear. now we're in this political attack on a leading candidate because they can't win with their candidate. >> dana: bryan llenas is live in palm beach, florida with more. hi, bryan. >> hi, this morning fox can confirm that former president trump's lawyers have filed a letter to judge juan merchan asking the court to throw out his conviction in light of the supreme court's immunity decision. now look, if merchan agrees to take this issue up, it would postpone the former president's july 11th sentencing. look, the judge could decide not to take this issue up. the deadline for filing post trial motions passed a few weeks ago and merchan could instead direct trump's lawyers to appeal the conviction after trump is sentenced. the supreme court ruled presidents have immunity for official actions taken while in office. in this case, trump's 34 felony convictions for falsifying business records is based on actio

we're going to have alina habba here on that. harris, now she goes after j.d. vance who will be speaking tonight at the rnc. kamala saying that j.d. vance will be loyal only to trump and not to our country. j.d. vance was a marine. where is kamala harris? well, do we even need to ask that question? and we also have pete hegseth. the left, the liberals, the democrats, they are scared of the unity that is on display. been happening two nights so far. night three of the rnc, top of the hour. ♪ ♪ peaking to self) about our honeymoon. what about africa? safari? hot air balloon ride? swim with elephants? wait, can we afford a safari? great question. like everything, it takes a little planning. or, put the money towards a down-payment... ...on a ranch ...in montana ...with horses let's take a look at those scenarios. j.p. morgan wealth management has advisors in chase branches and tools, like wealth plan to keep you on track. when you're planning for it all... the answer is j.p. morgan wealth management. when the sawdust settles and the

joining us now alina habba, legal spokesperson to former president trump. appealed court's order and jack smith's spokesman said the dismissal of the case deviates from the uniformed conclusion of all previous courts to have considered the issue. your reaction? >> shocking really that they want to appeal it because their henchmen who was falsely appointed and i have been saying this of about. i think you and i spoke about this last time i was on. he had no business in plain english doing what he did. which means the january 6th case should be dismissed. the box's hoax case was dismissed appropriately. you are not allowed to say i'm going to put my friend jack in and jack is going to go after trump. but here we are. we have got tissue james, d.a. bragg and we are seeing this the doj spending in people to the states d.a.'s office in new york. at what point are we going to start speaking english to the american people and saying we are not allowed to do. this it's unamerican. let's stop. >> laura: no statutory authority. >> none. >> laura: the office was creat

we'll also hear from trump's attorney alina habba, his son eric trump and celebrity wrestler, hulk hoganveral members of the trump family in attendance at this convention night after night. but notably missing is former first lady melania trump were told that will change tonight. she is expected to make her first appearance for now in milwaukee. raquel martin, back to you guys. thank you, raquel, to be interesting. >> the trump assassination attempt is also top of mind. still tonight, investigators are still trying to figure out a motive in the assassination attempts. saturday, detectives say they found internet searches for both trump and president biden on shooter thomas crooks, phone authorities also came across a message posted to a gaming platform that they believe to us from crooks, which said, quote, july 13th will be my premiere watch as it unfolds and quote, but the fbi believes the account under his name that was posted on is fake. so make of that, what you will. kron 4 will have special coverage of the republican national convention tonight, starting at 7 o'clock, we'll carry

and so that's the exact antithesis of what is being argued by alina habba and people who say this isponization of the department of justice by merrick garland or by joe biden is that she is saying that this is unconstitutional because, in fact, he is divorced from and not sufficiently under the thumb of this administration. so that's sort of point one. and point two is really the one that you started with, which is for 25 years republican and democratic administrations have used special counsels, when i was working for special counsel mueller it was challenged as every defendant has a right to challenge whether this was a constitutional provision. the district courts, both in d.c. and in virginia, held that it was constitutional. the d.c. circuit held that it was constitutional. judge cannon is the first judge to find that this was an unconstitutional appointment of a special counsel and inappropriate appropriations, in other words, funding of the special counsel. so i think that we will see this being appealed by jack smith because it is such an outlier decision, but it remains to b

here is alina habba, his attorney, talking about how the president has been feeling all week and howing going into this. >> he's grateful for life, he's grateful for the support of all the americans that have been out here at the rnc. he feels the energy, he feels the love, we all do. >> reporter: now, it's unclear, larry, if trump will address the shooting itself, but fox was told his speech will focus on unity and his policies and that you're going to hear from a changed man who escaped death. >> i can tell you that after last saturday just by a quarter of an inch avoiding being killed by a gunman, president trump tore up the speech that he had and said i need to redo this. it has to have a different tone. i have to lay out the pathway how we unite the country not just with words is and tone, which are very important, but also with how we bring about that success. >> reporter: and at the end of the night, larry, when he has wrapped up with his speech, he'll be joined on stage with his vice presidential nominee, senator j.d. vance, and both of their families. and then we'll see that

not the official act, what it is specifically, and it will slow the whole thing down but i think alina habbas right. there are a lot of issues even before we get to that. if you recognize the supreme court decision it downgraded some of the obstruction charges regarding the rioters. and so i think that impacts some of the charges against the president as well. there is confirmation there is absolute immunity when there is an official act of the president. >> bret: looking at this further there is some talk of january 6th in this opinion and whether the communications by president trump during that time involve official conduct and they essentially say it needs to be determined by the district court. the court therefore remends to the district court to determine whether it's official conduct or unofficial conduct. >> exactly. that really slows it down as the judge was just talking about the idea of presumptive immunity. the court says it is ultimately the government, jack smith's burden, to rebut the presumption of immunity and goes back down because it's factual. they say the parties had see

alina habba is a legal adviser to donald trump and one of his lawyers, and the way that she put it is quote, this dismissal marks the first step in ending the weaponization of our justice system, restoring the rule of law and making america great again. this is a notable victory, legal victory for donald trump. we are just 113 days away from the november election, and of course he has suggested that all of these cases should be dismissed and if he were to get back into the white house, he could if he so chooses, uses the department of justice to do just that, andrea. >> and barbara mcquade, let's talk about the judge chutkan case in washington. you know, as well as obviously just what has just happened. this case in florida was considered of all the cases because of the video, the evidence of alleged obstruction, the confirming witnesses that they had, this case also because it happened after he left office was considered one that might be, you know, separate and immune and might survive the immunity decision by the supreme court. >> yes, so you're absolutely right about this that thi

we're getting a statement from one of trump's legal spokes people alina habba. she is calling this decision a pivotal moment in our nation's history. the supreme court is unequivocally declared the administration's lawfare will not go unchecked. mark levine is still with us. we'll bring you back in for your continued reaction here. >> i'm in a place where the walls are built like a bunker. >> sandra: all right, a little bit tough to hear you there. andy mccarthy, are you still with us? i read a statement from trump legal team and try to get mark levine in him. we can't to continue to hear from him calling it a pivotal motion. the supreme court declared this administration's relentless lawfare will not go unchecked fete further thoughts. >> it certainly has shown that lawfare won't go unchecked because i think the defining feature of lawfare is this notion that even when a president is acting within the presidential authority, prosecutors who are inferior officers in the chain of command at the executive branch, that prosecutors are empowered to read into the mot

do have alina habba with me here and alina, you and i were just speaking. first of all, you came in with the president and former president. it says just last night to milwaukee, what is it been like for him knowing that he was so close to being gravely injured on saturday i mean, clearly they if they could have they this shirt shooter wanted to kill him and assassinate a former president and candidate for the republican party for me, i can tell you that it was emotional i was nervous to see him. i kept thinking i didn't know what to say. there are no words. he is a friend of mine and at the end of the day, when and you see someone almost get killed but you know them. i mean, this is a very strange place in the world to be right now, i think for all sides of politics, we don't want, want that for anybody that's just against the grain. so to you, how he's feeling, i mean, there must be such an feeling of one mortality, but also the political climate we're in yeah, i think that he, you know, he had a speech ready and that speech maybe would have been quintess

we've seen how his other attorneys, including alina habba, had talked about justice kavanaugh rememberingt trump did for him by, by not pulling his nomination when it was in the middle of a frenzied chaos and a question of whether you'd get confirmed when trump has a very singular view of how this court should act in accordance with the fact that he put three of these justices on that court obviously because donald trump thinks everything is about loyalty. and so the fact that he went through the process of nominating them, that they were confirmed that they sit on the bench. there is some kind of aspect there that they owe him. now, obviously, that is not what anyone who sits on the supreme court and ends up on the supreme court wants to believe in any way that there is any kind of partisan behavior that goes into the court any even before you get to this. and i should just know we do have the decision now from the supreme court on immunity. we are waiting, we are reading through it to see what it is. we'll report it as soon as we have it, but we knew that this moment was coming now beca
