well, dave arkenberg, his estate attorney for palm beach county, joins us live from west palm beach. florida, thanks very much indeed for joining us. would it be correct to say that this is unprecedented? definitely, thank you for having me. we've never had this situation before, which is why the f b, i probably had layers and layers of review. and then they had to go to a judge to get a warrant sign, which requires probable cause that a crime has been committed and that mar logo contains evidence of that crime. and you know, because it is so unprecedented that the judge probably was extremely meticulous because this has never been brought before any judge in american history. so legally, what happens from hair than what's the process? well, now that the search warrant who's been executed, the documents that are collected be taken to the f. b i headquarters and they will be reviewed. plus, there needs to be an inventory of the documents seized and it will be returned to the court. the document filed and it looked trump at any time his lawyer is if he has a copy of that search warrant

than we initially expect the w.eel now be moving to dave aaron bhoerg will be coming -- the palm beach county who will be telling us what exactly occurred at mar-a-lago today. >> well, thank you for having me. my office was not involved in the search today. this was all the fed. we were not notified of it, so this was kept close to the vest by the feds, and one thing to know that mar-a-lago is closed during the summer. it's a ghost town in the summer. trump is in bed minister and there's no functions at the club. there's no social functions at the club though there are guest suites there. although trump was not there, i do think that he believes that this is crossing a red line. this is her inner sanctum and to get this raid of his place it has to be a warrant signed off by a judge. there needs to be probable cause. there needs to be a belief that there's evidence there that could lead to a crime. can't be a fishing expedition so this is definitely serious stuff, and i guess the next question is what crimes are they pursuing? and who are they pursuing against? i do not believe they are search

and joining us, palm beach county state attorney dave ehrenberg. nice to see you here, we've got a law firm spread happening right now. who are we billing for this hour? we don't know, but look, it's just a week ago today that we learned from the court that trump was keeping top-secret, highly classified documents at mar-a-lago. we found out the doj interviewed two top white house lawyers about it and next week we may learn what's in the affidavit that made it so urgent for them to actually sees this material. we think about this investigation, that one, a lot has happened in a very short amount of time. what you make of it? >> a lot has happened in a short amount of time, the most significant development right now is what happens with this affidavit. i'll be the first to tell you, i was surprised that the judge yesterday showed as much willingness as he did, in being willing to possibly make portions of the affidavit supporting the search warrant of mar-a-lago available. it's going to be redacted, and we are not going to see a lot the truly juicy

me now to discuss legal analyst and federal prosecutor elliot waylens and also joining us palm beach county state attorney dave aaronberg. we have a whole law firm spread happening right now. i love it. who are we billing right now? we don't know. i'll begin with you, elliot, here. it is just a week ago we learned from the court that trump was keeping top secret, highly classified documents at mar-a-lago. then we find out the doj interviewed two top white house lawyers about it. early next week we may learn what is in the affidavit that made it so urgent for them to seize this material. when you think about this investigation, that one, this, a lot has happened in a very short amount of time. what do you make of it? >> you know, a lot has to happen in a very short amount of time, laura. you know, i think the most significant development right now is what happens with this affidavit. now, look, i will be the first to tell you i was surprised that the judge yesterday showed as much willingness as he did and being willing to possibly make portions of the affidavit supporting the search warrant

. >> on that point, randi, you're on the ground in palm beach county, boxes, 15 others reclaimed by the national archives, boxes were still taken by the fbi this time around. what more can you tell us? >> reporter: we know boxes of items were seized, were removed today from mar-a-lago. our colleague evan perez and gabby orr confirming this information. the people with the fbi included examining where those document were kept apparently and separate sources telling gabby orr documents were seized in those boxes of items. as sara just mentioned, the national archives had alleged that classified information in documents had been removed from the white house and brought here to florida to mar-a-lago. 15 of those boxes were recovered as you said, but they did want to know if anything was left behind according to a person close to this investigation. so we can also tell you that the key take-away here is that the boxes of items were taken, the documents were seized, but also that there was some coordination between the fbi and the secret service. donald trump was not here today. he was in new

also cnn global affairs analyst -- susan glasser, and dave ehrenberg, an attorney for palm beach county, florida. susan, i almost butchered your name so i'm gonna begin with you. on this very notion. i gotta ask you, the washington post report is fully frankly breathtaking. i have to ask you, what is your reaction to the reports that they were searching for not just classified documents, but those that may be related to nuclear weapons? not somewhere where it secured under the cover of the federal government, but mar-a-lago? what's your reaction to that? >> yeah, i mean look laura, this is a very, very serious allegation. this is the kind of thing that government does not screw around about. and obviously, the idea of nuclear secrets being held in an insecure way at mar-a-lago is just extraordinary. and certainly, really changes the conversation in a significant way. we've heard three days of gaslighting from the former president and his supporters, right? about this, as if it was merely a matter of doodles on cocktail napkins. obviously, classified nuclear information is a whole differ

and state attorney for palm beach county, florida. good to see you both. we are learning that this fbi search after suspicions with of withheld materials, what else can you tell us? >> part of what made this perplexing to the people in donald trump's orbit was that his attorneys were engaging on this issue, this notion that he took documents with him when he left the white house that the justice department wanted back, but what we are learning is authorities were suspicious that the trump team wasn't being truthful with them. they were concerned that the trump team was holding back documents, that they weren't putting forward everything that they had available, and they were also concerned that some of the documents could potentially have national security implications. that's part of what led to this search. >> dave, you've been talking to local law enforcement, i'm wondering what you are learning there in florida. >> first, we in the state attorney's office did not know about this search in advance, neither did local law enforcement. you can understand w

. >>> let's bring in now david aaronburg, state attorney for palm beach county. so nice to see you. this is -- look, this is historic. first time in american history a former president's home is searched as part of a criminal investigation. what is the legal peril the president is facing? >> he is facing potential jail time and also potential sanction that he would be barred from seeking office. so there is a lot at stake here. this is also a counterintelligence operation because the feds are very worried that the sensitive documents that he possessed involve national security because they would not go after him if it was just trinkets from kim jung-un. this is about more than that. and i know personally that the feds have been interested in chinese espionage because our office prosecuted a case a couple years ago where you had a trespasser who we couldn't charge with espionage, but she was trying to get into mar-a-lago. and it wasn't the first time someone tried to do it. so that is why the feds are really interested in these documents and the way that the former president is holdi

and with us now, state attorney from palm beach county, dave air renburg. as we learn that the talks are happening, executive privilege featuring prominently here, remind us what would not be covered protected by executive privilege? >> executive privilege is designed to protect the republic, not the president. and so it should not apply to a former president, but there is it some ambiguity. but it is not to cover up a crime. especially a crime involving the attempted overthrow of the united states government. but you will see that some people in trump world will invoke it and trump will certainly invoke it because he wants to delay things. he can essentially win by losing in the courts if he can delay matters long enough. and so that is why the department of justice is being proactive and aggressive to try to get out front and try to limit the ability of trump world to claim this executive privilege. >> how much of getting out front, right, and trying to maybe actively avoid that delay, is related to the fact that there is an election looming and that dona

but i want to turn right away to cnn correspondent, randi kate, who's actually at palm beach county. also here with, us cnn's chief white house correspondent, kaitlan collins. can anyone being with you here, because look, a search on the former presidents home is absolutely extraordinary. and now we know it is about the handling of classified documents. what is happening right now? what is it all about? >> it certainly is remarkable. these events are unfolding in the way to the former president saying that they are and the state but it does seem to be a pretty huge escalation of but we had already known. which is that there was an investigation into whether or not he mishandled potentially classified documents when he left the white house. now when it comes to search warrant that was executed today, it was confirmed by trump himself in a statement who said that a large number of fbi agents were there at mar-a-lago we are told that that was about maybe clocked that more nick that they were there and that it was a search that lasted for several hours. trump said in this -- that they sa

joining me is david erinburg state attorney in palm beach county, florida. sean turner, former director of communications for u.s. national intelligence and a cnn national security analyst. welcome, both. david, let's start with you, as pamela was mentioning more than half of this 32-page affidavit has been heavily blacked out. that was expected, what do you see that we can read, what do you see that stands out to you? >> well, good morning, the most important part for me is that the affidavit shows this is an ongoing criminal investigation. it's not just about retrieving the documents from mar-a-lago and calling it a day. the doj is not going to hang a mission accomplished banner yet. it's clear that trump is in the doj's hairs. and they took 15 boxes previously retrieved and includes the hds documents and as the report said that's really important because that involves human sources that could be at risk. and some of the documents that were retrieved had trump's handwriting on them. so it's getting tougher and tougher for trump to say this is the coffee bo

. >>> let's bring in david aronberg, state attorney for palm beach county, florida. nice to see you this morning. so much to unpack here. the judge pushing the doj to release some information to the public, but it could take some time. he's given them a week to suggest some redactions. he says everyone's rights will be protected, government's, media's, the public's. cnn and others have asked the court for more clarity on behalf of the public. is it possible we get all of these pages that are essentially blacked out with five words left? >> yes, i think that is what is going to happen, rchristine. those in the maga world who are cheering judge reinhart, i think that is premature. when we get the affidavit, i think that it will look like swiss cheese. i think that it will be five to ten words on each page, they will be disjointed and it won't tell the public much. and that is the way it should be because this is a pending investigation. sources are at risk. witnesses could be tampered with. and the targets could then be alerted to what the department of justice is doin

. >> i mean randi, on that point, you're on the ground in palm beach county. boxes and 15 others were reclaimed by the national archives. boxes were so taken by the fbi. this time around, what more can you tell us? >> we know that boxes of items were seized, they were removed from our logo today. our colleague, ivan perez, and gaby or both confirming this information with the source. people coasters investigation. the fbi search included examining where those documents were kept, apparently. at a separate source is telling gabby or that documents were seized. in those boxes of items. so, as sarah just mentioned, the national archives had alleged that classified information in the documents had been removed from the white house and brought here to florida, to mar-a-lago, 15 of those boxes were recovered as you said. but they did want to know if anything was left behind, according to a person close to this investigation. so, we can also tell you that the key takeaway, of course, is that the boxes of items were taken. the documents were seized. but also that ther

a state attorney for palm beach county and ellie williams is a former federal prosecutor and cnn analyst. elliot, the former president invoking his fifth amendment rights here. it has gone on for hour six. we heard. is there what you expected that he would do, knowing his history of the depositions? >> yeah, i think so. so it's a few things, victor. what the fifth amendment is. it says in the constitution no person can be compelled to testify against themselves. you can't bring someone in to have them testify and use the testimony in a criminal proceeding. you have the right to remain silence, if do you have watched a cop show, that's the fifth amendment. that's what the president asserted here. you know, actually, he's got a basis for asserting the fifth amendment here, because we know about an ongoing criminal investigation in new york city based on the same facts that the attorney general is investigating today. the question of whether he unlawfully inflated the values of some of his properties. so, you know, yes, we could have expected it. it might be the one time donald trump actual

you take a look at the cost comparison for eggs and milk in palm beach county, florida.art. so look, if the consumer was strong those new walmart shoppers that they're seeing would also be buying other goods at the big box store when they go in for their groceries but that is not the case. sales are up at walmart because americans are spending but they're reserving their dollars for earningses like groceries. because of that, walmart is shifting, they actually canceled billions of dollars in orders, discretionary items are still sitting on the shelves in walmart. talking about items as like electronics and apparel. americans are cutting back. they are also trading down which is pointing to that lowered level of living standards, really interesting. walmart reporting that they're seeing their consumers buy a lot more generic items, generic brands, versus the brand names. and the consumers that are buying in their store, increasingly using credit cards instead of debit cards. with inflation making everything more expensive, yes. consumers are spending because they can't af

i wanna bring in cnn sarah murray who is covering the -- and the state attorney for palm beach county florida. sarah let's begin with you, because we are learning that this fbi search after suspicions that withheld materials but sk tell us? >> i mean part of what made this so perplexing, particles to the people in trump's orbit, where that is attorneys were engaging in this issue this idea that he took documents with him as he left the white house that the justice department wanted back. what we are learning is that authorities were suspicious that the trump team was not being utterly truthful with them. they were concerned that the trump team was holding back documents. that there are not putting forward everything that they had available. they're also concerned that some of those documents to potentially have national security implications. so that is part of what led to the search. >> they've, you've been talking to local law enforcement about this. i'm wondering what you're learning down there in florida. >> you know laura, first, off we in the state attorney's office did not know

. >>> i want to bring in the state attorney for palm beach county down in florida, dave ehrenberg.give us your sense. what do you make of the verdict, $45.2 million in punitive damages. >> wolf, it is a big victory for the plaintiffs who have suffered for so long at the hands of this believy ating wind bag. a lot of us with disappointed in that $4.1 million in compensatory damages. so i was expecting a hammer to come down today and in punitives and it did. $45.2 million. now it may be reduced by the statutory cap in texas. but it is still a victory. it is not over. because there are two more trials just like this where he could also get hit with big time damages and then there is the possibility that prosecutors could file charges against alex jones for purnerjury. it takes rare talent to turn your civil trial into a criminal one. so his legal problems are not over. >> i want to bring in joey jacks. the judge could cap these damages as dave just said. you could explain why and what that potentially could mean for these parents. >> yeah, you know, at the end of the day, wolf, this i

so we want to bring in dave aronberg, state attorney for palm beach county, florida.good early morning to you. i want to start here, is there any legitimacy to this request for a special master from the trump team or is this just another one of his delay tactics that we've seen play out in cases throughout his long legal history? >> good morning, omar. it is a delay tactic because he is too late to ask for this. the whole thing is moot. this is what happens when you have trouble finding experienced criminal defense lawyers to represent you, you end up litigating the case in right wing media instead of a courtroom and then the clock runs out. because it is difficult to justify the extraordinary request for a special master two weeks after your home has been searched. you waited too long. and, you know, these documents have almost certainly been reviewed already by the department of justice. and that included a filter team to ensure that there are no privileged documents amongst the documents taken. and if there are, they were set aside. so not only is this motion moot,

we also want to bring in dave ehrenberg, he's the state attorney for palm beach county. dave, tell us what you think about this breaking news? >> alysyn, i think this provides further evidence that the department of justice is investigating donald trump, clearly, the federal prosecutors want to learn what trump said and did around january 6th, and that's why they got testimony from short and jacob and now the two packs , if i can call them that, they are seeking that information because, they saw what pat cipollone testified to before the january 6th committee, and there are gaps because he invoked executive privilege and attorney client privilege but the doj has a better way of getting through those privilege claims than the january 6th committee, they've got a lot more power to do so plus they've got that -- >> like how do they break through the executive privilege? >> they are being proactive right now, to go to court, to try to block executive privilege, they go to a judge. the reason why the january 6th committee didn't do it is because they knew they were on the cl

joining us now, chief political correspondent dana bash and phil mudd and state attorney for palm beach county down in florida, dave ehrenberg. do you agree with the justice department that releasing the affidavit, which they reiterate implicates and i'm quoting now, highly classified materials could undermine their investigation if they were to release this affidavit? >> i do. if you look at what the government is saying about this, there is two things. there is witnesses, also evidently a confidential human in informant. if you get that information and even if it is redacting, you tell me if you're at the inner circle at mar-a-lago, what is the first thing your going to do is say who said what and soon as you find a witness that person is going to be ostracized. that goes a step forward for the informant who was key to telling the fbi that there are documents still in that building. that is mar-a-lago. remember we had a lawyer for president trump certify that there were documents so somebody flipped on the the president. i w i would be looking for who that informant was if that stuff is e.r.

i wanna bring in cnn sarah murray who is covering the -- and the state attorney for palm beach countywe are learning that this fbi search after suspicions that withheld materials but sk tell us? >> i mean part of what made this so perplexing, particles to the people in trump's orbit, where that is attorneys were engaging in this issue this idea that he took documents

but i want to turn right away to cnn correspondent, randi kaye, who is actually in palm beach county. i'll stay with us tonight cnn's chief white house correspondent, kaitlan collins. caitlin i want to begin with you here. because, look, a search on the former president's home is absolutely extraordinary. and now we know it is about the handling of classified documents. what is happening right now? what is it all about? >> it certainly is remarkable. if these events are unfolding in the way that the former president is saying that they are and the statement it does seem to be a pretty huge escalation of what we already know. that there was an investigation underway and to whether or not he mishandled potentially classified information when he left the white house. now, when it comes to this search warrant that was executed today. it was confirmed by trump himself and a large number of fbi statements were there. at mar-a-lago. we are told that was about 8:00 this morning. and that was a search that lasted for several hours. and trump said in the statement that they, quote, even broke i

. >>> let's expand this conversation with david ehrenberg, the state attorney for palm beach county, florida, and also with us is sean turner, the former director of communication for u.s. national intelligence. appreciate having you both this morning. dave, first with you, i want to get your assessment of the pros and cons of unsealing a redacted affidavit. >> boris, good to be with you. i think the judge yesterday wanted to show that he is even-handed, that he's deliberative, he's going to listen to both sides and not take an absolutist position but in the end i believe he's going to redact just about everything in this document because there's very little in this document that can be revealed without jeopardizing the sources, without inviting trump world to tamper with witnesses and to tip off suspects so they can coordinate their stories. nothing good can come out of it. you also jeopardize a future defendant's right to a fair trial. so i think when it does come out, if it does, it will look like swiss cheese. it will be blacked out throughout the whole thing with little parts of

political correspondent, abby phillip, counterterrorism analyst phil mudd and state attorney for palm beach county, florida, dave aronberg. i want to start with you, dave. this filing is incredibly revealing, right? doj went further than it really had to go, and it goes point by point, correcting the record on what it says are trump's meritless accusations and inaccurate narrative. just how comprehensively does doj refute trump's claims? >> very comprehensively, pamela. this is yet another self-inflicted wound by trump's legal team. trump could have kept that damaging affidavit sealed but he went publicly and said, hey, let's be transparent and his lawyers said nothing in court and now it came out. now you have this motion for a special master that opened the gates for the doj to respond with a 36-page missile right into the heart of trump tower. i mean, you have got this response that decimates trump's claims that his team was fully cooperative the whole time. actually, it lays out a case of obstruction. obstruction here is punishable by up to 20 years in prison, the big whammy here. things that

the state attorney for palm beach county. $45.2 million in punitive damages for a little bit more thanay. what is your reaction? >> wolf, i think this is a victory for the plaintiff tz. because after yesterday's verdict, just $4.1 million, a lot of us were hoping that the hammer would come down today and it did. and so this hammer will have to be reduced perhaps by the statutory cap. but it does get the plaintiffs closer to the $150 million that they sought. and keep in mind, this is so much bigger than the amount that was offered by jones' lawyers. he offered $8. and so this is a victory no matter how you look at it. and keep in mind also, this is just the first of three trials where juries will get to decide how much jones owes for his actions. and lastly, i know jones is going to spin this as a victory and his audience at info wars they don't care about the truth, but we know better. >> but how could jones possibly spin this as a victory, $45.2 million he'll have to pay out in the punitive damages just announced only a few moments ago. $4.1 million yesterday. how could he possibly s

we also have dave aronberg with us, the attorney for palm beach county, and jessica dean. how are trump's allies on capitol hill reacting to this extraordinary fbi search? >> well, wolf, it's interesting to see kind of the difference between the leadership of senate republicans and the leadership of house republicans. on the senate side, senate minority leader mitch mcconnell has stayed pretty quiet. some of the leadership has tweeted out comments saying they want an explanation, they want accountability. they want the fbi to explain exactly what they were after and why. but in terms of mitch mcconnell, we have not heard anything from him on this so far. it's a very different story on the house side. house speaker kevin mccarthy tweeting and i think it's important to read this to you, quote, when republicans take back the house, we will conduct immediate oversight. attorney general garland, preserve your documents and clear your calendar. that's pretty explicit as to where they are. we also know house republicans did talk about this on a previously scheduled call earlier t

i want to give you an update to the degree that i can on what's happening right now in palm beach county, florida, where in the palm beaches the former president says his home is under fbi raid i have the full right through from the former president and we have someone to discuss in just a moment the headline of this is statement by donald j. trump, 45th president of the united states it then begins, "these are dark times for our nation as my beautiful home mar-a-lago in palm beach, florida, is currently under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of fbi agents the former president writes, quotes nothing like this has ever happened to a president of the united states before after working and cooperating with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate. it is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the justice system and an attack by the radical left democrats who desperately don't want me to run for president in 2024 especially based on recent polls and who will likely do anything to stop republicans and conservatives i

according to dave arenburg, the state attorney for palm beach county where mar-a-lago resides what, we yesterday was likely about a lot more than just newspaper clippings. >> this search warrant in my mind would never have been issued if it was merely about removing government documents. if it was merely about that trump kept keep stakes from kim jong-un. this most likely, in my mind, involved a willful removal or destruction of classified documents that could jeopardize national security. >> joining me now is jessica levenson, professor at loyola law school, paul butler professor at georgetown law school and a former federal prosecutor and daniel goldman, candidate for new york's tenth congressional district, also a former assistant district attorney for the southern district of new york and the lead counsel for the trum impeachment trial. thanks for joining us this evening. this is going to be quite the night. daniel, i'll start with you. we've just gotten word that not only was thereto raid yesterday but that it had nothing to do with the january 6th impeachment, nothing to do with

we've always known about mar-a-lago hanging out in palm beach county, little bit north of where you andrms of this warrant that was executed at mar-a-lago? trump's response in kind of how it is creating even more of a fevered, very violent response from the gop? >> can he do remember a year and a half ago into fbi agents were executed a search here in broward county. they were killed in the line of duty, republicans are calling for us to defund the fbi. their little using horrifically violent language about our law enforcement. we have to make sure the law enforcement are protected. they have the ability to do their job, keep us safe. and the irony of what republicans said about democrats attitude towards law enforcement. and what they are actually doing is horrific. i signed an oath when i first got sworn into the house of representatives, i will protect intelligence. classified information. you swear in, oath i sign my name on it. donald trump took classified, the most top secret classified information. and took it to his home, kept it in a basement with no protection whatsoever. he w

earlier i spoke to dave owenberg, he's the state attorney for palm beach county. he thinks donald trump will likely use the re to encourage his principal bass. we've never had this situation before, which is why the f b, i probably had layers and layers of review, and then they had to go to a judge to get a warrant sign, which requires probable cause that a crime has been committed and that mar logo contains evidence of that crime and you know, because this is so impressive dented that the judge probably was extremely meticulous because this has never been brought before any judge in american history. so legally, what happens from here then? what's the process? well, now that the search warrant has been executed, the documents that are collected be taken to the f. b i headquarters and they will be route at any time. his lawyers, if he has a copy of that search warrant, which will, most likely does, he could release that search warrant if he thinks that the search warrant is so corrupt. he could also fight it in court, but i don't expect you'll see either of those
