i donald john trump. do solemnly swear. donald john trump do solemnly swear, so help me. god! so help me. god. congratulations mister crest. january 2017. donald trump became the 25th president of the united states. he was open to diplomatic relations with came joan. but he squandered his johns the. we begin with north korea late today, launching a new missile. north korea has announced its successfully tested a nuclear capable, intercontinental ballistic missile capability. the world news to me it would never reach a child from north korea says it's may just have a mistake. miss sanchez demonstrates that it now has the capability to strike anywhere in the united states. the in july 2017 north korea testing ballistic missiles with inter continental range, the, the threatening gesture directed primarily against trump and the us. the rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime. now north korea's reckless pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles threatens the entire world. the united states has great strength and patience. but if it is forced to defe

i am fired up and energized by donald john trump. host: we will talk to you next month. this is chet in amsterdam, new york. caller: my intention is to vote for donald trump and biden and trump have made mistakes like a lot of politicians. what would they do if donald trump was found guilty? the nomination is already soda. people know his problems, they know joe biden's problems. we've got to move on with this. i'm going to vote for donald trump but what will happen, you are going to throw him in jail? why don't they go after biden and try to put him in jail for the things that he has done? they've got to move on. we've got a lot of problems in this country and i think donald trump would be good on foreign policy. i think the people just hate him. they have so much hatred for donald trump even going back to 2016, but the only reason why he got arrested to begin with is people are tired of the rockefellers, the bushes, the kennedys. one family running everything. so we put donald trump in there who was a businessman, he tried to do the nasty could and because he is not --

you know, i had a conversation with her at an earlier brunch, but if indeed donald john trump comes back to the white house as president of the united states, there's a big concern. many journalists say they cannot cover it. they're saying it quietly, but there will be retaliation for sure. he's got a list already, and he's checking it twice to find out which journalist in his mind is naughty and nice. this former president does not believe in the press unless it's the press that just glorifies him, that makes him larger than life. but if we are the free and independent press as we say we are, we tell the truth and give the facts with the receipts. and this is a president who doesn't like it. so if he does come back, i don't know what it's going to look like. his presidency did change the relationship between the press and the presidency where he came and we're trying to gain ground back. if he comes back, we're going to lose much more ground. >> april ryan, thank you for being with us this evening. later tonight, my colleague has special coverage of the white house correspondents dinner

i am fired up and energized by donald john trump. host: we will talk to you next month. is is chet in amsterdam, new york. caller: my intention is to vote for donald trump and biden and trump have made mistakes like a lot of politicians. what would they do if donald trump was found guilty? the nomination is already soda. people know his problems, they know joe biden's problems. we've got to move on with this. i'm going to vote for donald trump but what will happen, you are going to throw him in jail? why don't they go after biden and try to put him in jail for the things that he has done? they've got to move on. we've got a lot of problems in this country and i think donald trump would be good on foreign policy. i think the people just hate him. they have so much hatred for donald trump even going back to 2016, but the only reason why he got arrested to begin with is people are tired of the rockefellers, the bushes, the kennedys. one family running everything. so we put donald trump in there who was a businessman, he tried to do the nasty could and because he is not -- do

wall street journal jon poll we're looking at now. 11% say that they are goingo to vote for donald john trumpvoteand this is because of thehg things that we have in common as familie s. we care about diversity. all of that is fine. iversity goodness, this is abou political ideology movinggh the time they spend at the schools and going after the and moving gender, ideology and all that, regardless of what you think about that, in the meantime, the economy is collapsinmeg effectivelying and god forbid, should there be a black swan event, let's say, in the middle east or evth north korea, that changes k everything in this country and that would change the economy, the shutting downes of shipping lanes in the middle east. then what do you think's going to happen to energhe middle eas at that point? so i think americans understand that iint,f you care about youri your family in the future. you've got you seen th theseaffy numbers affect you and how trump's policies affected you in a positive way and open the future up no matter who you were. donald and joe biden's policiesa doing the opposite. >>

is about who is doing a better job on the border americans are pretty clear they preferred donald trump. >> johnnald trump came out saying i was the first person who could overturn roe v. wade, i am proud that i did it and democrats have been hitting republicans over the head with it ever since. there is a new ad that the biden campaign has out which is based on pretty much what biden said the other day, listen here. >> trump brags about he is the reason roe v. wade was overturn. here's his quote "i did something no one thought possible. i got rid of roe v. wade" end of quote. but now him and his mega officials are calling for a national ban on the right to choose in every state. i promise you for the democratic congress kemal and i will make roe v. wade the law of the land again, i promise you. >> john: republicans did not have an answer on the attacks from democrats about abortion and they paid for it at the voting booth. do you have an answer for this year? >> i think the president will continue to say he is pro-life and let's keep in mind that president biden is in a defensive message there,

donald trump on directly. his campaign rivals, the republican house leadership the senate republicans, who didn't convict him he said donald john trump, be is hereby acquitted the charge that after his lawyers assured that behind the scenes that trump could always be prosecuted later if they acquitted him this body is not invited to act as the nation's overarching moral tribunal. >> we have a criminal justice system in this country we have civil litigation and former president's are not immune from being accountable by either one even the incoming biden justice department under merrick garland seem to put off accelerating the prosecution until the january 6 committee effectively forced their hand all of these people in washington, they all convinced themselves that someone else, anyone else, or something else would take him on, take him down, even which in private they would say they desperately wanted. >> and they were afraid now it seems to be the conservative supreme court's turn. the arguments yesterday suggests they two are going to kick the can down the road instead of quickly deciding one way or the other whether voters

keep them honest with breaking news on the perpetual machination machine that is donald john trump late today, a new york appeals court judge denied his motion to delay monday's hush money, criminal trial and apologies for not prefacing that width. stop me if you've heard this before because you have, here's the headline from just two days ago, appeals court denies and other trump attempt to delay trial. again, that was monday, seeking more time to pursue a change of venue motion. did yesterday and asking for more time to challenge the gag order. their client is under today. it got even richer with one on trump attorney arguing for more time to file more defense motions to which steven wu arguing for the manhattan district attorney's office said was simply not the way these things work. we're going to leave that for legal panel to sort out in a moment. one thing though is clear these last three motions are only the most recent attempts to delay or derail things last week, you follow the motion demanding the trial judge recused himself for the second time. the first was last summer. he h

potential witnesses in this case, including hope hicks, a longtime age donald trump, michael cohen, longtime former attorney for michael john trump donald trump and stormy daniels, among them who do you think is the most important of the witnesses? >> well, when you break it, the most important you have stormy daniels is going to give you sort of the back, back understanding of why this is all happening. why is it president even considering this, of course? the former president is going to deny that relationship. but it's relevant to his intent and what he wants to do at the same time, there is michael cohen, who is the person who, who's in the room figure really speaking literally speaking but he also has the most for the former president to attack because he's, he's been convicted of a crime. he's lied and misrepresented. >> so those two people are critical. but at the same time is ample evidence. remember, stormy daniels didn't come out and say this happened at first, she was quiet about and denied it. just a lot of fodder here. >> do you do you think the prosecution would like to see donald trump take the stand apps so

>> that's exactly right, john, as we know, donald trump has been trying to continue campaigning despite having to be required in new york four days out of the week, donald trump admitted that today he went and visited the building site for jp morgan where they're going to be building a new headquarters in new york. he met was some working class voters, construction workers, as well as teams union members. and this is really him, despite new york being overwhelmingly having voted for joe biden in 2020, this is him trying to salvage some of his campaigning and looking ahead to november, despite all of the legal battles that he is facing now one really interesting thing just to touch off what joan was speaking about is that even though donald trump is in new york for his criminal hush money case, he's very focused as well on what's going to be happening at the supreme court today in washington. and at one point, while speaking with reporters, he even said he wished he could have been in washington, dc instead at the judge was keeping him in new york take a listen to how he put it we have a

supreme court braces for arguments that could effectively end the federal election case against donald trump i'm john berman with sara sidner and kate this this is n newsroom historis unfolding before our es today, right behind me live pictures of a courthouse in lower manhattan a then at use trump tower here in new york vershortly, donald trump will leave his apartment for opening statements in a trial or could ultimatelland him behind bars. we're getting new details this morning about the very first witness expected to called by the prosecution a man known to be involved in several catch and kill schemes for donald trump. >> polluting the alleged hush money payment with porn star stormy daniels. >> cnn's kristen holmes is live outside court this morning where history really will be made crystal that's all right, john, and we do expect donald trump to stop by those cameras in the hallway. remember this campaign stop he's had in several days. he was supposed to have a rally in north carolina over the weekend where he could likely air his grievances as he likes to do. however, it was canceled due to b

. >> john: former president donald trump back at the campaign trail today the this time in the crucial swing state of michigan where he is expected to put the border front our head of the november election in the next hour he will take to the stage to deliver remarks against what he calls "bidens border bloodbath" will see if the white house has anything to say when karine jean-pierre has the press briefing in a moment. hello and welcome i'm john roberts in washington, bloodbath now one of the former president's favorite words. >> hello i'm sandra smith in new york i want to call your attention to the left side of your screen both of these are life shots, white house on the right, this is a live shot of migrants clearly right now happening before your eyes coming across the border at eagle pass, texas. this is provided by our fox flight team. these are images we are seeing day in and day out hour after hour, immigration was of course one of the former president's signature issues when he ran back in 2016. but this crisis has only exploded since then. voters are taking notice. >> john:

john >> denied. denied. deny donald trump's effort to get the documents case tossed rejected the georgia election case, tossed reject the new york criminal case delayed, rejected this morning. how to cope with so much rejection than one driver lucky to be alive this morning? after a mammoth crane fell, right on top of him >> i was driving and i felt a compression i looked up and i saw the blue structure coming down i slammed on my brakes >> and all you need is love traps and some excellent protective eyewear. no, not just my average saturday night. why the cowboy capital of the world is becoming eclipse central >> if, you work in spaceflight. this is the worst thing that can happen sciutto columbia, the final flight premieres sunday at nine >> so would you give to nashville hot tenders and three mandarin orange tenders >> would >> three classic tenders four big butterfly shrink, four of a kind, baby. >> i said, always a competition. you can't handle the shrimps. >> see about that. >> yeah, we will get your backyard ready for an

terror but americans are swept up in the surveillance and former president donald trump just weighed in all of this. i am john roberts in washington here we go for another jam-packed our. >> sandra: could be with you, john i'm sandra smith and this is america reports. right now lawmakers seem divided on this, listen. speak of those individual saying this is a warrantless search for american's data is not telling the truth. >> it's a disservice to the americans for a member of congress to vote against a simple warrant requirement. >> if you want to track terrorists are bad guys in russia or china you have to have fisa. >> sandra: david is a compromise in the works? >> is all over the place right now. i wish i could tell you more. it is literally changing by the minute on capitol hill. the deadline, sandra, is friday april 19th at the debate is coming to a head this week with a potential vote tomorrow. the fbi and cia use fisa a lot. the controversial section 702 allows intelligence agencies to collect communications of foreigners overseas without a warrant. yes, that foreign person could be speaking to someone

donald trump does not know it. he has great instincts about stuff like this. as far as they're concerned, donald trump so far is just saying what am i doing here? why is this happening? >> john have another note from the courtroom. in terms of what trump thinks of david pecker, trump smiled and kind of giggled a little bit when pecker was telling the story of him coming to trump tower for a meeting that trump wanted and trump said this guy knows more than anybody else to which nobody laughed. mike pompeo and the national security forecastle in the room. it shows you know he is probably still okay with pecker even though the prosecution is trying to get pecker to nail trump as being involved in some sort of grand conspiracy. in the upcoming election. >> during 2015 you saw firsthand how many stories ended up planted in "the washington post" and "new york times" that would make hillary clinton look good? that made the russian investigation take route? that gave cnn another six hours of programming and speculation? how many times did david corn and the others that we find out later these fbi agents who went rogue and feed the story about a russia hoax? now you have someone who

who somehow were enamored of donald trump and might result in a hung jury. now that i've said john, you and i are just looking at the paper record here. the lawyers are in the courtroom. they're getting to see and assess the actual human beings. so their judgment is what really matters here. >> so this is moving very quickly. they are getting through the numbers here to the point where opening statements good. come on monday and not much has slowed things down except for that outburst in core or apparently donald trump was muttering something in the judge issued a stern warning. >> le what strikes you just about not just the pace, but the conduct in general of this trial so far so they are moving quite efficiently. >> john. and what strikes me is that other than the fact that the person sitting in the defendants chair is former president donald j. trump. >> this is a normal trial. this is the way these things work. the reason we are proceeding efficiently here i credit to a few things. first of all, we have a good system in place. we he collectively have been trying cases and seati

million-dollar penalty and based on the interview with anderson cooper, donald trump talk about himself she owes him $24 million. johnhat donald trump told you, pecker said, that is what he told me. >> you recently interviewed stormy daniels. there is some money -- >> that was a desperate problem for stormy daniels. but when she was represented by michael, he slew donald trump on her behalf for defamation. that case was not only thrown out of court but the judge in california awarded attorney fees to donald trump because the judge said the case was frivolous. those were assessed against the client, stormy daniels, not against the lawyer. that debt which has been multiplying is currently about $670,000. sold stormy daniels olds donald trump at this moment about $670,000 and has no chance of discharging that debt because it has been appealed and a pet. this is something i suspect trumps lawyers are going to use when she testifies to talk about her bias and anger. she has lots of things in our favor. she's actually a very good witness. she testified against michael and his criminal trial in manhattan and the jury clearl

middle out, bottom-up, and we are going to reject the extremism and hatred that we see from john -- donald trump every day. >> use of matthew chapter 5, i wonder if it reads the same in the trump bible. michael tyler, communications director to the biden-harris 2024 re-election campaign. thank you for being with us. >>> up next, former president trump was trying to bring both sides of the abortion debate. i will tell you where he really stands. that is next in this week's gotcha. will not all caitlin clark's are the same. caitlin clark, city planner. just like not all internet providers are the same, don't settle. get real deal speed, reliability and power with xfinity. she shoots from here? that's kinda my thing. get the real deal with xfinity internet today, and get fast speeds and a reliable connection to all your devices in the home —even when everyone is online. >>> donald trump is teasing a major announcement from his campaign next week, on the topic of abortion. for months now, the former president has been publicly and privately waffling over whether he would support a 15 or 16 week ban.

table and you are the defendant at a criminal trial is not a good day, whether your name is donald trump or john a bad data. be there, but to the point you're making here, just like in the january 6 testimony, wanted the things trump says out on the road and his rallies to his supporters and his emails& as many, many fundraising appeals is that they're out to get me joe biden's out to get me. democrats are out to get me woke. prosecutors are out to get me. and what happens when you actually have hearings, january 6 hearings or now a criminal trial, people who were velcroed pretty close to donald trump are the ones giving the damage testimony. it's friends of his people. he trusted people who helped him, people who said they wanted to help him, they wanted to help in this case, help get them elected president because david pecker thought would be beneficial to him. the big question is, does it break through? how is it covered in the conservative echoes ecospace where most trump's supporters get their news. that's the challenge. he's going forward. does it break through in the election campaign? b

way they think they will get elected but i guess based on what i am looking at -- >> john: former president donald trump sounding off on his way into court this morning as a third day of testimony underway in his new york criminal trial. i am john roberts in washington we will be watching this for the next two hours. b2 what a day it is i'm sandra smith in new york this is america report. the prosecution picking up where it left off on tuesday with more questions for experts witness david fentanyl the "national enquirer" reported telling about trump's alleged affair with karen mcdougal and the efforts to give that from going public. >> john: the manhattan d.a.'s office also accusing president trump of violating the court's gag order again as we await a decision from george marchand. and it to react to any live updates from the court room. >> sandra: starting outside the court in new york city, air, what do you have? >> hi -- under the -- any moment now for lunch. they have heard this morning from stormy daniels. turns out she wanted twothousand dollars -- $200,000 -- >> sandra: we will start with eric's

michael dreeben who previously worked on special counsel robert mueller's team arguing for donald trump is johnower antonin scalia law clerk. justices who typically like to shy away from politics cannot escape it in this case. they are entering the nerve center of the elections. if they say that trump is not immune, the engines of the case will kick back on and start moving if the justices side with the former president, it's possible he does not go to trial at all here in washington, d.c. again, arguments kick off at 10:00. we definitely expect those to last at least two hours, perhaps even more. back to you. >> ainsley: thank you, david. the ruling is expected in late june. so that would be in the middle of the summer when we will find out what they decide. >> brian: then, of course, if they do something like the documents case, you got to go through all the documents and get the security clearance in order to read some of the documents. even if you are a paralegal working with a lawyer, there is so many documents to go through you have to wonder how they can actually do it before november. w

spoken to trump saying, quote, it was kind of shocking to hear him suggests that john that's interesting. all right. steve contorno with this reporting. thank you very much okay. >> so donald trump is also tangled up in a new legal battle this morning. he is suing two co-founders of his newly public company trump media, saying that they don't deserve to receive there shares which are now worth hundreds of millions of dollars. those two co-founders also former contestants on the apprentice, cnn's matt egan has much more on this map. what has led up to this? >> well, this is just the latest legal twist and what has already been a feed bonanza for the legal profession. essentially, what's happening is the founders of truth, social they're fighting amongst themselves over how big of a steak they're going to get in a company that is now valued in the billions of dollars, even though two social's user account is shrinking and the basically generates almost no revenue at all. so what's happened here is, as you mentioned, it's not just co-founders up to social. former contestants of the apprentice, the show that helped fuel donald trump's rise. they're named in this lawsuit. trump

. >> john: as all of this is going on the white house continues to play the same one note song on all of this. that is that donald trumpcans are to blame for the border. listen to what cream john pierce said yesterday. >> what we heard from the last administration from president trump and you heard me say this over and over again, you all reported this, that he told republicans to reject that proposal because it would hurt him and help the president. so we will continue to urge congress republicans to come back, right? come back to the table, move forward with that proposal. >> john: she keeps saying on the president keeps saying we need congress to fix this but take a look at the statistics. donald trump during his presidency 2.4 million people crossed the border illegally. 7.4 million under biden. is this a matter of congress having to do something or is this presidential policy to handle what is going on with the border? >> it is both president -- presidential and congress. i am one of those where if you look at it, look, there is enough blame to put on everybody. if you look at the last of two appropriation bills f

boots on the ground that we talked about, but people are enabling it in a credibility way to donald trump? >> johntman was disbarred in california last week. >> john clark on his well there. >> yeah, 3 1/2 years later. it was very much in our mind, the people in watergate, they went to jail. john dean, halderman, there were these ethics laws, the rule of law. you cannot just use the fbi to investigate -- not that i could do it, but other people couldn't use the fbi to investigate political opponents. and there will be accountability. we felt the system will hold not just the president or foot soldiers, but will hold the kind of middle officials accountable. i think it's been a big problem that the middle officials so far, very few of them, have been held accountable. >> the ones that trump is going to install, if he gets back into office, starting in 2025. that whole project. bill, good to see you onset. i know i'm not ari melber. >> an upgrade from ari melber. >> i love you even more. >>> by the end of the hour, bill nye the science guy will be here. plus, a tale of two fortunes. booming new jobs

it happened twice when the democrats impeached donald trump and to stick with john kennedy's poultry and ologies what is good for the goose is good for the gander. when house democrats impeached donald trump the first time, republicans had a majority. we could have done this. we didn't because we took the constitutional responsibility seriously and the senate conducted a trial. to take the constitutional response ability seriously now and i can promise you the next time we see an and impeachment [inaudible] you're not going to see a trial. you're seeing the democrats the race the class of the constitution and that is a serious, serious threat to the rule of law. >> clear in the back. to go straight to a trial or to have -- >> i am proposing we go straight into a trial. senator cruz has a different one that would propose we have it handled by a select committee. i think most of us would prefer the former but either one would satisfy. >> last question. >> the first of that he will uphold one of the counts sites several specific instances where secretary mayorkas instructed employees. is

problem with a lot of localities. >> john: we will see what happens at 29 minutes. >> sandra: a lot of activity. president biden an informal president donald trumpputing on dueling tax plans. but you need to know on how it affects you and your money. our panel is up next to break that down for us. >> john: minutes away from the start of today's white house press briefing. college campuses deceived into chaos things to anti-israel protesters. though the biden administration to step up to condemn them? >> these school presidents need to be more active and vocal about the fact that they will not tolerate this type of anti-semitism. they will get control of their college campuses. it is time for congress to start investigating. he's got so many life experiences that he can share. finding the exact date on ancestry that our family business was founded, was special to share with my grandfather. you don't get that moment every day. i would like to take a moment to address my fellow veterans, because i know there are so many of you who have served your country honorably, whether it's two years, four years, or thirty-two years, like myself. one of the be

and i think the key thing here to keep in mind, john, is that this isn't a total change in donald trump's position. he had long said that he believed that abortion should be up to the states. but i think the significance of it is that this is going to be the position that they hold until november, at least that's what his campaign advisers tell me now, and that comes after hit flirted with a 15-week are 16 week ban. and many of these people who criticized him, including senator lindsey graham and marjorie dannenfelser. she's the president of sba pro-life, a leading anti-abortion group. they had been in donald trump's ear for over a year now trying to get him to support a national ban on abortions after a specific number of weeks, mainly 15 weeks. and that's where a lot of this is coming from. but look, i do want to share with you some of the criticism that donald trump lobbed at these allies of him. he said that lindsey graham quote, is doing a great disservice to the republican party and to our country also pointed out that democrats in congress would never allow a national abortion ban

search and ultimately, this became a key part of the obstruction case against former president donald trump. but john, there's gonna be a big fight in court over whether evan corcoran will be able to testify and share what he nose from that episode in the mar-a-lago investigation, if and when donald trump goes to trial in this case. so now quite a marker to see him leaving this legal team. finally, after hanging back after these issues, were all, he was forced to provide them publicly. >> yeah, quite a marker as you say, because you can imagine what a compelling witness he could be potentially kaleb, poland's great to see you this morning. thank you very much, sir. >> it is a remarkable development in this case, joining us now cnn senior legal analyst and former assistant us attorney for the southern district of new york elie honig. thank you so much. i know you've been up late getting up early. we really appreciate you. >> can you >> just give us an idea of just how significant it is that one of trump's key attorneys, evan corcoran, has now left the trump team well, sarah evan corcoran is now a posi

it has been an historic day in the people of the state of ny york versus donald john trump are going to have all the courtroom highlights next the stanley cup playoffs on tnt at tbs euler's covers continues wednesday and fin on tbs when you're the leader is as the cleanup and restoration, how do you make like an every then happened happened brand whatever comes your way? as a pro for that serve crow? >> like never even happened to me. >> harlem is all but home is also your body. last one, i asked myself, why does it pilates exist in harlem? so i started my own studio get an a brick-and-mortar in new york is not easy. chasing inke supported us from studio wind to studio three. when you start small, you need some big help and chase ink with that for me earn up to 5% cash back home business essentials. but the choice inke business cash cart, and chase for business, make more of what's yours, your best days of the year start here. i go. vote or orange days. it's the year's biggest selection of kubota tractors. zero turn lowers utility vehicles, including the number one selling compact tr

and much more on our breaking news out of arizona tonight and donald trump's allies in that 2020 elections former national security adviser, john bolton is here and he joins me to react plus fulton will also respond to trump's demand for absolute immunity. that argument will go before the supreme court tomorrow the white house correspondents dinner, live saturday at seven eastern on cnn it appears that despite my sinister ethics employees are still managing their own hr and payroll why would you think nir humans deserve to do their own payroll? because their livelihoods depend on it, because they have bills to pay. >> me now return the world of hr and payroll to its rightful place of chaos well, face a tsunami of unnecessary felt likes of which you have never seen this friday making this wave must-see movie of this oh, arrives. >> i'll make come talk to you and she's like you never seen her before. he saying i should be flattered it's intoxicating& hilarious why mine your car? >> because you're stupid, you're stupid. i know. i'm just not as disturbed by it is you are an absolute blast not miss this movie challengers abuse frida

by the way, we have seen this movie before, john. 2018, donald trump as president called members of ms-13 animals in light of multiple instances of these gang members brutally torturing their victims first before murdering them in the most horrific of fashions. the acts of animals. but i can provide you dozens of examples of news outlets in 2018 at that time purposefully omitting the part about trump specifically talking about 13 members members and instead presenting where they had him call all of them as one entity animals so the fact-checkers will come to the rescue in 2024 look at politifact and snopes when it could be the easiest fact-check they can do. >> john: it said trump calls some unauthorized immigrants animals and rants when he was talking about murder, dismemberment, decapitation among other things. this is how it all got going in the last couple of days. the biden campaign's rapid response posted a video of trump on x saying "democrats say please don't call immigrants animals and i say no, they are not humans they are animals but what trump actually said don't call them
