chris page reports. northern ireland has always been on the brexit front line. frontier. there is a trade border at ports like belfast for goods arriving here from great britain. the inspections and bureaucracy are affecting a number of businesses, like this pet food wholesaler in county tyrone. there's a lot more paperwork, it's taking me a lot more time. we are also finding that suppliers are limiting the amount of products for us. so it means we're having to look more at suppliers in europe. under the arrangement known as the northern ireland protocol, a range of products, particularly food, need to be checked to ensure they are in line with eu rules. that's because northern ireland has an open land border with an eu state, the republic of ireland. the eu wants to prevent goods which don't match its standards from entering its single market. big supermarkets believe there needs to be a more flexible approach, or else consumers in this part of the uk will lose out. northern irish people, everybody in northern ireland is going to see, very, very visibly, the im

chris: patterson's signature character, detective alex cross, is a publishing franchise, adapted into hit films. but his latest book, walk in my combat boots, written with retired army sergeant matt eversman is a non-fiction pageies. chris: why is that important to tell, particularly why to tell now? >> if you've been in the military, if you've been in combat, you'd say these guys got it right and if you haven't, you'll understand, maybe for the first time in your life, what it means to serve, what it means to put your life on the line for somebody else. chris: his favorite story is about twins, jason and kevin drawding who served as army rangers in iraq. >> one of them would go through a hair-raising experience and all he would think about is i hope my twin is okay and jason would always say over and over again, kevin and i are going to go home. we're going to get home. and they did get home. chris: patterson runs his own story telling army. >> i have writers. what i will do is i will write 50 or 60 page outline for everything. there was one year two years ago where i wrote i think it was 2700 pages of outlines which is crazy. chris: do you ever get writer's block? >> no, no, what is that? i've heard about th

chris, we often talked about it. the trump organization int internally tracked and treated these fringe benefits as part of weisselberg's annual compensation. this is on page 13. and the corporate defendants falsified other compensation records. chris, two sets of books. this is going to be a devastating jury case and i think weisselberg is flinching and he's going to have to very seriously rethink whether it's time for him to start cooperating. donald trump's worst nightmare. >> tristan snell, what is the best case scenario for how the former president would be implicated in this when you know the defense? weisselberg did what he did, i didn't know, i signed the checks. i'm the face of the organization. i'm out bringing us in new business, i'm not keeping the books. that was him. whatever happened wrong is on him. >> i think the kicker there is it's going to be a whole puzzle that you have to put together. now, you can get a whole lot more of the pieces of the puzzle dumped onto the table at once if weisselberg cooperates. but if he doesn't, then the rest of it comes down to this ledger, all of the different versions of it. in this indictment, just this l
