ashley webster is live in miami with more. ashley? ashley: yeah, good afternoon, and evening to you, liz. it's remarkable isn't it? the more legal challenges donald trump faces the more money he takes in for his campaign and higher he goes in the polls. right now, he's at the trump national doral resort now about 25 minutes west of here, meeting with his advisors and his new legal team. we know now he's facing 37 counts of illegally happened el ing what they call top secret documentation, but, he continues to dispute that and over the weekend telling the party faithful in georgia that you know what? these charges they are simply baseless. take a listen. >> they are ridiculous and base less indictment of me by the biden administration' weaponized injustice will go down as among the most horrific abuses of power in the history of our country. many people have said that. democrats have even said it. this vicious persecution is a travesty of justice. ashley: travesty of justice so i can tell you we've seen the security become tighter and

ashley webster live outside of the courthouse with the latest. ashley? ashley: good afternoon, to you, liz. you know, everything went pretty much as planned for an event that's actually never happened before in u.s. history. a former president being criminally charged on the federal level but it happened. donald trump arriving prior to his 3:00 appointment with the judge here for his initial appearance. he came in. he surrendered to u.s. marshals. he was arrested. he was not cuffed. he was fingerprinted but he was his mugshot was not taken and then straight to the courtroom in front of federal magistrate judge john goodman. we can tell as you pointed out, liz, he's plead not guilty to 37 counts of illegally mishandling or illegally storing secretive and classified documents, but it should be pointed out it was not trump himself who put in that plea. it was his attorney. in fact donald trump never spoke to the judge and according to reporters inside the courtroom he looked pretty stoick throughout the entire proceeding trump was released with a couple of

ashley webster is live with that. what have you got for us? >> yes, and as we have just found out, john, some of that tech, if not most of it, is still trying to get to the area, as time is running out and time is the enemy here. sonar buoys are one thing that can be used to try and pick out if this mini submersible, if you like, is stuck on the bottom of the ocean, or perhaps if it's floating around on the surface, which seems more and more unlikely. this truck-size sub, operated by oceangate expeditions, a private company, they charge $250,000 per ticket to allow tourists to explore the wreckage. as we know, contact with the crew lost about an hour and 45 minutes into the dive on sunday. nothing has been heard since ominously. one thing that's interesting, the sub itself is actually guided to the wreckage site through text messages that come from the ship on the surface, and for some reason that communication link was lost, and that is one of the biggest mysteries here. we do know that those people on board include british pakistani business

ashley webster is with us. a huge platform for fundraising. how are his competitors keeping up?'s a good question. it's a conundrum because if you're someone else in the gop race, you want to support trump and fight against the justice department received as operating political interference. on the other hand it's like to get a message that resonates with conservatives but different to donald trump, it's no easy task. one of the gop contenders decided to come here yesterday and hold a news conference right in front of the courthouse and he said he was there to call on his gop rivals to join him pledging to pardon donald trump is convicted in the federal documents case meaning that's one approach. it's interesting but donald trump is always campaigning and even as he left the courthouse yesterday after pleading not guilty to 37 counts, right there he made a surprise stop at a cuban cafÉ and met with locals. he prayed with them and took selfies and they sang him happy birthday. this is right after he left the courthouse and then straight back to his resort in new jersey where he t

ashley webster with the latest. time is running out. based on what the coast guard said yesterday, somewhere between 24, and 22 hours but there is a small glimmer of hope as you pointed out. canadian surveillance plane detected banking sounds every 30 minutes in the area the submersible went missing and additional sonar devices were deployed, the banking was still heard. the coast guard put out an update saying canadian piii aircraft detected underwater noises in the search area. as a result, our ovi operations were located in an attempt to explore the origin of the noises, those searches have yielded negative results but continue. of a u.s. navy is analyzing the data as more vessels are arriving in the search area but time is becoming critical. even if the submersible is found, the only real chance of survival, say many, would be to hook a cable to the stranded vessel, real it up to the surface where the craft's had could be drilled open but that process alone could take a day or more to complete. the situation is very challenging. ocea

ashley webster live at mar-a-lago with the latest details. >> we started the day thinking we knew what was inside the indictment. now we do. perhaps a bit of a surprise the indictment was unsealed earlier today. let's get a look at what the counts mean with regard to consequences. counts 1-31, the willful retention of national defense information. a maximum fine of $250,000. obstruction of justice, 20 years. maximum fine a quarter million dollars. concealing a record. 20 years. counts 35 concealing a document in a federal investigation. 36, scheme to conceal, five years, fine $250,000. and false statements and representations, five years and $250,000. the maximum sentence based on this indictment would be 100 years if donald trump is found guilty on all charges with a fine of $1.25 million. tuesday in miami donald trump is set to have his initial court appearance. the president has changed his legal team, perhaps wanting those lawyers who are more familiar with how business is conducted down here in south florida. liz: let's take the story to former assistant attorney andrew mccarthy.

ashley webster has got the numbers. how bad is it, ash? ashley: not great.f a million people experienced homelessness on a single night across the country last year but that number does not accurately reflect the size of the problem because not all the data is being collected. "the wall street journal" says the final u.s. estimate will depend heavily on new york city and los angeles county which have by far the highest homeless numbers last year. they have not yet reported the new numbers but most major urban areas reporting data so far have seen increases including chicago, miami, boston, phoenix. largest increase comes from san diego county which counted more than 10,000 homeless people. that is a 22% increase from last year. so what is at play here? authorities blame growing pressure from high housing costs, the end of temporary pandemic era protections such as eviction moratoriums. stu. stuart: ain't going away anytime soon. that is the way it is. all right, ash, back to you later. >>> why is "bar rescue" guy jon taffer suggesting that small businesses a
