, might favor donald trump. that judge looks like she's going to stay on the case. >> well, she's going to stay on the case for now. big question was whether or not this was some preliminary assignment to judge, aileen cannon, as she was randomly assigned to donald trump's case. we all know her very well. she had a very embarrassing run act appointing a special master, in trying to pretty much run on position on behalf of donald trump, previously. in the 11th circuit court of appeals said you got it wrong. you got it wrong in the facts. you got it wrong in the law. doesn't mean the doj can't move to recuse. but recusal is a high standard. ultimately, she can deny a motion to recuse by the doj. and let's be very honest, let's manage expectations here. just because you are a trump appointed judge doesn't mean end of itself that is grounds for recusal. however, there is some law that is within this 11th circuit. there's a whole bunch of us that have been talking about this amongst ourselves, in terms of the legal a

donald trump's criminal defense lawyers and donald trump now have it all. they have the case of the united states of america versus donald trump. this is in their hands right now, the full grand jury testimony of all of the witnesses who will testify against donald trump. andrew weissmann is with us tonight to analyze that, and much more that we have to cover tonight. and tonight is one of those nights, where we have to reflect on the fact that you live in a country where the incoming president replaced every u.s. attorney, as is customary for new presidents, but this time, the president deported from that political custom in one instance. the president did not replace the republican appointed u.s. attorney who was investigating the presidents son. the new attorney general, chosen by the new president did not in any way interfere with the u.s. attorney who was investigating the president some, and he was appointed by the previous president. you live in a country where the president and the attorney general belief that no one is above the law, including the

you know, hannity starts off by saying that i am not going to challenge donald trump. i'm not gonna do what cnn did, and try to make him answer for anything if he said something that is not true. trump starts off when his first response is about the competency of joe biden, which he says, i called sean, called him shaun, and told sean not to make jokes about it. and i think after that, he didn't. that, for me, through the entire thing of. there is no way for me to know that he didn't also call sean and go over what questions could be answered and could not be answered and to go over the content of that very first question. that, for me, through off the notion that i don't have the questions they were when, had not also been pre-screened by donald trump and his camp because these are friends in front of fans. so, what he is doing is exciting, as you just read that passage from my piece, he is playing to all their emotions. and, you get caught in this blizzard of lies and fabrications and exaggerations, and you have no concept of whether or not he is saying is true. all y

well at this hour, tonight right, now, 27 hours after donald trump was told that he had just become the first former president in history charged with federal crimes, including violations of the espionage act, the trump criminal defense team is in chaos. the trump criminal defense lawyer who call donald trump at seven pm last night to tell him that he was indicted by prosecutors in the executive branch of the government that he once controlled, resigned or was fired this morning along with another criminal defense lawyer that also resigned or was fired this morning. last night, after the indictment was announced, the league criminal defense lawyer in the case of the u.s. versus donald j trump said this -- >> even if he talks about the documents or the existence of them, that is light years away from the specific intent that they need for an espionage case. >> and now, that lawyer is gone. anything the trump defense lawyers have ever said publicly about what we're done the possible charges against donald trump as turned out to be completely wrong, not that we see the actual charges again

criminal psychologist and niece of donald trump. the mary trump show and author of the reckoning, our nation's trauma and finding a way to heal. >> mary thank you very much for joining us tonight. a very eager to hear from you what you think your uncle is going through. and let's go to the beginning with rachel's question which is handwritten here, i do a close-up with a camera but man you would have trouble with this penmanship. she did have to translate it for me. she wrote how afraid of jail, that's her question, how afraid of jail is your uncle? >> lawrence, it's a great question. the problem is as is often the case with donald is the extent to which he is able to grapple with those kinds of questions. i don't think that he allows himself to believe that's a possibility. it is literally beyond him to imagine a situation in which he would be held accountable to such a degree. that he would lose freedom. to the extent that he hasn't already lost his freedom but that's self-imposed. so if he could comprehend that that was a viable p

this information came from people who were on donald trump's employer, who were on his payroll. we are talking about text messages that were between the trump employees. we are talking about surveillance tapes in mar-a-lago. >> where he is actively trying to keep this content. for those who are saying what about pence, what about biden? he actively used his team to keep to hide this content after the government said could you hand the specter. >> and we are not talking about government policy memos here. we are talking about information that was derived in many cases from human intelligence sources. we are talking about information that was presumably given to us in some cases by our allies we are talking about classified maps of military operations. this man had no business keeping these documents. these highly sensitive documents outside of the white house. certainly not at mar-a-lago. >> carol, people are fired up across the board. what are you hearing about security concerns and possibly demonstrations? >> there are a lot of, in fact people have been talking about whether or

we have seen some high profile republicans come out against the donald trump, like chris christie, for example, who's running against him in the republican primaries, but by, in large numbers of congress as well as his fellow competitors in the primaries have essentially backed trump. and so that's, i think, a key distinction here where as in the case of nicks and pretty much everyone agreed that what he had done was wrong. that it was kind of wilful malfeasance. and there was a general sense of bipartisanship that he needed to go. and that's one reason why richard nixon ultimately do tender is, is resignation. but in this case, we don't have that. and that's why it's so much so much different. we have democrats versus republicans at all, just one another republican saying that this is essentially a weapon, ization of the justice system. and so it's very unique, i think in that sense, thomas, you brought up the rest of the republican playing field right now. so let's take a step back and look at some of the trumps main republican challengers. randa santas, he's framed his candidacy is

now, we have this aileen cannon, a judge who is appointed by donald trump. p and proceeded to render a whole set of extreme pro trump rulings of when he tried to attack the fbi search warrant and the legitimacy of the fbi search after his obstruction of earlier efforts to get the documents from him. she was overruled by a three judge panel on the 11th circuit, a very conservative court in the country on the bases that she had no justification for what she was doing. i think that she may end up facing a lot of pressure to recuse herself after that last round of what had happened. all of which is to say that our courts have been under attack by donald trump, by the federalists society, which attempted to pack the courts with federal society bloggers and hacks. people who would not have been qualified and would not have been put on to the court in prior generations. we are up against some of those people. i know that there's a lot of resilience in the federal judiciary and when you judges, whether they were appointed by democrats or republicans, to act in salas

oh, well, turns out, donald trump, you did not believe this bogus theory. that is what this tape is saying. regardless of the provider about having classified documents or not, on this tape, you have trump's own view of the law, and what remains classified, and what isn't. he even says, quote, see, as president, i could have declassified it, now i can't, you know. this is still secret. that is gold for jack smith, the former president trump's own words, saying he thought documents were still classified after you take them out of the white house. this becomes an open and shut case for mar-a-lago. his bravado defense might get him somewhere if he is charged in yet another indictment, at bedminster. that's all he's got. >> glenn kirschner, as a former practitioner in the trial courtroom, where you have to present and to deal with evidence like this, and credibility of evidence, we have -- what we are hearing is donald trump referring to that document very clearly, saying it is pages long, it appears to be holding it up. we hear audio reaction from people who se

that's not gonna happen with donald trump. er the election, is at this point, up to judge cannon. >> anthony, if you look on the last page of the indictment, it's like a one pager. it says that this case, i'm quoting it, this case will take 21 days for the parties to try. that is something that special counsel's team wrote in. then if you look at the fourth, number four on that list, it goes on to say they check a box that say they could do this case between 21 to 60 days. jack smith thinks this is going to be quick. his deputy thinks it's going to be quite. do you have the same confidence? >> [inaudible] >> anthony, are you on mute? >> i, am sorry about that. i don't know that i had that -- that i have that same confidence. i think that document perhaps was submitted before we knew that judge cannon was going to be the judge presiding over this. paul can speak more, i suspect about this. but i suspect there are going to be a lot of pretrial motions before we actually get to the start of this trial. but i will say one thing abo

donald trump's pack is paying's legal bills, donald trump is running for president again, donald trump could be president again, in which case, walt nauta will have a job still. he might get a pardon and continue to have his legal bills paid. in the absence of all those things, he might go to prison, does not get his legal bills pay, and he stays in jail. it's a different calculus then an ordinary defendant who is on trial with somebody else who might have those powers. when your codefendant is the once and possibly future president of the united states, it's a different ball game, alicia. >> that is the most compelling explanation to i've heard. lisa reuben, as always, you are staying with me. can dilanian, thank you so much. next, the spin machine, it is in high gear. hypocrisy of the republicans who are rushing to the defense and the former president. and a reminder, in case you needed it, this is trump's second criminal indictment, but wait, there could be more. the other legal trouble facing donald trump. that is why lisa reuben is sticking around. but first richard louis who is s

it was a trump lawyer who entered the words not guilty as donald trump's plea trump is accused of conspiracy and his indicted codefendant was booked as well, seen there with trump. that's mr. nota, a lesser known character, now the coconspirator. he was also seen, i should mention, in the car with trump as well as the courtroom because he still works for trump. both men seen with trump's legal team. here's a wider sketch of the historic booking of a former president today. the judge oversaw that booking and allowed trump to keep his passport for any travel but barred from discussing this case with witnesses like his codefendant, mr. nauta. this is donald trump's second arraignment in just over two months. that is another unprecedented reality that you can see in this breaking news comparison tonight. donald trump there captured by a camera, so you have that image, inside a new york city courtroom for this arraignment which was very historic at the time, a big deal, and today's federal arraignment. what you see on the screen are the moments donald trump doesn't want to you see. both these cas

poll, about where things stand in this race, quinnipiac poll showing who you vote for and 53% donald trumpnext closest, 23% desantis. 4%, that is the next after desantis and trump. how do those candidates that are having a hard time breaking through, break there? is it about taking on trump? >> it is so difficult. and i've talked -- i've spoken with a lot of the campaigns this week and of course donald trump and his advisers as well about this. they have a very fine line to walk. and i think what i've been hearing a lot of through my reporting is to look at the primary election strategy versus the general election strategy. a lot of them are focusing on the primary, which is they do not want to alienity at trump base because they need those voters. and it is very similar on capitol hill as well. a lot of the republicans are rallying to donald trump's defense. they're dismissing some of these charges like you said, even though they are very serious charges and trying not to, you know, step into a land mine here with donald trump. and i think that is what we're seeing the majority of the can

donald trump has a long histo of before. donald trump has a long history of being _ before.rump has a long history of being sued, lawsuits i before. donald trump has a long l history of being sued, lawsuits and history of being sued, lawsuits and his tactics tend to be to delay, to run down the clock that he cannot be prosecuted any more. the doj has decades on policy which it does not indict a sitting president. donald trump is not a sitting president said this is, pressure on the doj to get this done and have a speedy trial this is not the only investigation on donald trump also investigating the role on the january the 6th capital riots in 2021. that has to come back at some point and could come back in an indictment due back sometime over the summer. there is a lot of pressure to get this done from the doj. in terms of a speedy trial, who knows how long it could take. as i mentioned, you need to select the jury, donald trump needs to have a permanent legal team as well. there are also this going on here. so we do not really have a sense of the timeline. but the departmen

donald trump. on may 6th, 2021, asking, politely, for the return of documents that belong to the united states government. nothing was returned. on january 17th, 2022, an archive contract arrived at mar-a-lago to load 15 boxes into a truck and transport them 1000 miles north to the national facilities. on may 11th, of 2022 last year, may 11th of last year a justice department issued a subpoena for any remaining documents that donald trump's florida residence. on june 7th, the justice department returning j brett, went to mar-a-lago to collect the remaining documents subject to that subpoena. on that day, donald trump's lawyers gave jay bryant a written, signed a statement saying they were returning everything in donald trump's possession, subject to that subpoena, after what they called a diligent search. on august 8th of last year, august 8th, justice department officials in the fbi returned with a search warrant and seized over 100 documents marked classified as well as thousands of other governm

that sits beside all of these public statements of donald trump saying that he could declassify them by magical thinking, or simply by moving them from one room to another in the white house? >> classic misdirection by mr. trump here. so he likes to talk about this idea of declassification. so let's imagine for a second, it even mattered for the espionage act. it's not giving any proof that he declassified it. there's no staying order that's going to be provided. despite the fact that he talked about it. there is not going to be any documentation showing how he declassified these particular records. and there's not going to be any evidence that he removed the classification markings on the records. which is what mattered, for purposes. neil knows this, andrew knows, it if you have classified information. you go based off on what's classified on the documents. they were all looking at the document. he will probably put forward the defense that the abstract theory, that because there is no limits on a present. an incumbent president on authority to declassify. that he could automaticall

we have heard from a spokesperson of donald trump in the last half hour. let's take a listen. e executive branch has the power to classify documents. the decision to classify documents. the decision to pursue charges against president trump while turning a blind eye to others is emblematic of the corruption that we have here. we are at a turning point in our nations history. the targeting, prosecution, of a leading political opponent, is the type of thing you see in dictatorships like cuba and venezuela. it is commonplace for viable candidates to be prosecuted, persecuted, and put into jail. what is being done to the president trump should terrify all citizens of this country. these are not the ideals that our democracy is founded upon. this is not our america. thank you. so what is happening right now inside the courthouse because mark has he been arrested because man has been finger printed because mark has a mug shot been taken? what's happening's a mug shot been taken? what's happening"— a mug shot been taken? what's ha enina' , , , a mug shot been taken? what's ha--enin-'

how much legal peril is donald trump? facing right now, and how strong it does this case against and look at the moment. you know, i read the entire 42 page indictment against donald trump and it's what's called a speaking environment. tom, in terms of an indictment, you don't always have to have full details and then you can just have what we call a bare bones indictment, which is just to let the party that defend it. know what they're being charged in. and just a little bit about the information. but what i love about this indictment is special council jack smith. pretty much laid out everything, not just for donald trump, but for the american people to read and to understand what exactly occurred in this case. and he did it with not just words, but he did it with pictures and pictures a but at 1000 i'm worth a 1000 words. this indictment is really worth a 1000000 because he has pictures. he has the words, he has what donald trump said, and videotapes and so with amounts to 837 count indictment of donald trump for his w

now you got donald trump looking at a federal indictment for a number of felonies. ere is the rule of law? the gop used to be the party of law in order, and now we have former presidents being indicted federally, and at the state level. and candidates for the oval office saying, i'll pardon people that participated in physical acts of violence in order to commit insurrection. what is happening here? >> what's happening is they're looking at polling four where donald trump, is it where they're at when they parent those stops. i know how this works, i was in congress katie. it's very difficult for me to look at some of these people seriously. but it's amazing that a military lawyer, ron desantis, right, somehow forgot to read, look at sourcing, actually use his own investigative training to see what's right in front of his eyes. the reason is is because there is no worry about the american citizen. it's all about if he can win. it's the same with a lot of these other candidates. they don't care about america, they don't care about truth. they only care if they get thei

he's not a fan of donald trump. he has no interest in joining kind of the talking points that we saw from kevin mccarthy, the house speaker, and other republicans, criticizing the department of judge's justice, and suggesting there are two tiers of justice in this country. that is something that mitch mcconnell is likely to engage in, but at the same time, he doesn't want to enrage that trump base. he is already not favorites within that group, so that's why you see him waiting until the last minute. but i can promise, steph, if i am in that press conference tomorrow, i'm gonna ask him that question. whether or not he answers it, we're gonna have to wait and see. >> we will be watching. of course, he doesn't have to join kevin mccarthy. he can simply speak his own truth. ryan nobles, thank you. we're gonna let you head to bed, in case you get to ask mitch mcconnell any questions tomorrow, i want you to be ready. but for the rest of, you are sticking around, because there's a lot more. ahead, we dig into the former p

he quickly became donald trump 's favorite white house waiter. he is just a service oriented guy, said ty cobb, a former trump white house lawyer, who knew nauta in his capacity as trump's valet. nauta serve them during long working lunches in the residence. he's not partisan, he's a really genuine person, and somebody who never, ever expected in his lifetime to be the valet to the president of the united states. that was the highest honor of his life, cobb added. i'd be shocked if trump said ten words a day to him, two of the words not in trump's vocabulary, thank you. donald trump is saying thank you to walt nauta now by letting him sit at the dinner table that he used to serve. but for walt nauta, the price of sitting at donald trump's dinner table includes sitting at the defense table in the case of the united states of america versus donald j trump and walt tea nauta. well walt nauta lose his place at both of those tables by flipping and testifying against donald trump? as the washington post puts it, in hopes of a lesser sentence, the answer

with donald trump, it neverl usual. with donald trump, it never is. cted, but some of this is pretty complicated, so let's try and answer some of your questions online. an indictment is a document that sets out details of charges, designed to make sure the accused has notice of the alleged criminal offences. mr trump faces seven charges, including conspiracy, false statements, obstruction ofjustice and illegally obtaining classified documents. he will leave his home in florida to appear in court in miami on tuesday, but it is unlikely he will be fingerprinted or handcuffed. theoretically he could be jailed if he is found guilty. the espionage act violations can carry up to ten years in prison. but the charges may be difficult to prove. legal experts say as things stand, mr trump will still be able to enter the presidential race. but he does face all sorts of other legal problems, from probes into his new york businesses to various six abuse allegations. given those other cases, how significant could these latest allegations actually be? i spoke to a cr

returned materials that rightly belong to both to the federal government and the people of america, donald trumped to cooperate. as we now know from the indictment unsealed by the department of justice yesterday, the former president and his personal valet had now codefendant walt nada, both have been indicted. trump alone faces 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information, and one counts of false statements. both men are also charged with one count each of conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a documents, corruptly concealing a document, concealing a document in a federal investigation, and a scheme to conceal. what nauta also faces a separate charge for making false statements. now, the government alleges in its indictment that trump was not nearly a passive bystander who got caught up in this ordeal. he was an active participant who was personally involved in the process of packing up documents, as he was set to leave the white house, and quote, cause scores of boxes, many of which contain classified documents to be transported to the mar-a-lago club in palm beach, fl

i agree with firm president trump _ donald trump to leave court? irm president trump that the i with firm president trump that the us is in decline, specifically political decline. it is not economic decline, not technological, not military, but politically, either the uk or other countries around the world used to look at the united states as an exemplar of effective, cutting governance. people wanted their countries to be run more like the united states. nobody looking at the us today would say that, and it hurts me, i mean, it hurts my heart to say that, as an american, someone born here. trump is of course at least in part responsible for that, not holy, but certainly... he has done more than his part. certainly... he has done more than his art. ~ ., , certainly... he has done more than his art. ~ . , . certainly... he has done more than his art, . ., , . ., , his part. what is the source of this dechne his part. what is the source of this decline in your _ his part. what is the source of this decline in your view, _ his part. what is the source

thank you very much. >> have a great show. >> at this hour tonight, right now, 27 hours after donald trump was told that he had just become the first former president in history charged with federal crimes including violating the espionage act, the trump criminal defense team is in chaos. the trump criminal defense lawyer called donald trump at seven pm last night to tell him that he was indicted by prosecutors in the executive branch of the government that he once controlled, resigned or was fired this morning along with another criminal defense lawyer that also resigned or was fired this morning. last night, after the indictment was announced, the league criminal defense lawyer in the case of the u.s. versus donald j trump said this -- >> even if he talks about the documents or the existence of them, that is light years away from the specific intent that they need for an espionage case. >> and now, that lawyer is gone. anything the trump defense lawyers have ever said publicly about what we're done the possible charges against donald trump as turned out to be completely wrong, not that w

as president, donald trump, the 5 horns. now he's the 1st form or us leader to face federal criminal charges. he says it's a political hit job on his 2024 presidential campaign. but what does it mean for america and the future of its democracy? this is inside story, the hello and welcome to the program. i'm how much enjoy them. it's an unprecedented moment in the history of the united states, one that's fraud with legal uncertainties and political implications. former president, donald trump, has been charged and connection with the mishandling of classifying documents is the 1st federal criminal indictment of the us president. and now the nation is heading into uncharted territory a year before the presidential election. trump is called the indictment and abuse of power and an attempt to keep him out of the white house. there's lots to discuss with our guests, but 1st this report from victoria getting the president, donald j. trump, for me, you as president on from campaigning in georgia, 2 days after being in billing serie

donald trump will be accusing special prosecutors. the united states, and the world, have much to fear on the second trump presidency. they would never stoke that fire on this program because, strongly, i believe that if the republican candidate will beat him, and by an even greater margin than he beat him before. i mentioned donald trump's demand to dream of appointing a special prosecutor, merely to illustrate how much donald trump has to say about the federal criminal case against him that is not, to actually, about the federal criminal case against him. it can be fairly taken as an indicator, and just how hopelessly guilty that donald trump thinks he is. so, there's so much actual evidence in the case and, instead, turns his comments about being the first federally prosecuted former president for the united states into a fantasy for his weakest minded followers, which would generate campaign contributions from them to restore donald trump to the presidency, and to carry out their fantasy. there is just 100 lawyers and they could no

we were not expecting until right now to see donald trump as he makes his way into port. yes, it was. we didn't know whether that was going to happen in new york. we didn't see a lot of president trump. we know, as a said earlier that there is an underground entrance to this court, but it was, you know, the donald trump. i'd like to get for a moment. donald, this may be part of this effort just to show that kind of fearless defiance that he has been showing all along. the secret service aren't advising him to do this because their number one job is to make sure that wow, this is a proud that is largely great from pictures and never know who is going to be hanging out around here. they've been the presidents in the past run into negative incidents in public places like this. but my guess is if we're seeing donald trump right now, because he wants to be see you make very good points. so we're not and just to be clear because you probably can't see what i'm seeing, but we're not, we don't see him right now. we just see that the motorcade has stopped. clearly he is in the vici

"the new york times" is confirming that mark meadows, donald trump's former chief of staff, has testified to a federal grand jury as part of special counsel jack smith's ongoing investigations into trump's mishanding of classified information and his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. this is a major development, and we are going to talk about it in just a minute with representative jamie raskin who served on the january 6th committee, but we start with mar-a-lago. at this point you have probably seen a picture of trump's florida resort. now, mar-a-lago is massive. it sits on about 20 acres of land. it has more than 50 bedrooms, and has all the hallmarks of luxury, all the fancy stuff, italian stone and spanish tile, and lots of marble and gold plated fixtures and expense was rugs and also has a golf course, a ballroom, a batik, and not one but two swimming pools. here they are. one is by the beach in front, and the other sits right in the middle of basically everything. now, i point these pools out to you not just because pool envy is a real thing especially in the summer months beca

donald trump said his defense will be handled by todd blanche, who was also handling donald trump's defensee new york case. these are very serious charges. probably more serious than the new york ones as far as the amount of prison time he could be facing, the amount of fines he could be facing. these are federal charges. he needs to assemble a legal team that is some ill your with national security law. >> mary interesting. our correspondent, thank you. >> my pleasure. >> from the biggest political story in the u.s., we switch to the u.k. where britain's former prime minister boris johnson has announced he is resigning as an mp. mr. johnson claimed he had been driven out by a committee investigating whether he deliberately misled parliament. he said he received a report which he dismissed as a biased kangaroo court. the panel has been seeking whether or not mr. johnson lied about parties at downing street that broke covid roles. he admitted misleading parliament but denied doing it on purpose. here is our reporter. >> this is extraordinary. this was unexpected. we did not think this was ab

had, audio recordings of donald trump, realtime text messages of his aides saying donald trump told me to do x, donald trump told me to do y. we've seen him get out of legal jeopardy because he's not on record anywhere or he's squishy. there's no text trail for him. there's no email trail for him. he famously doesn't put things in writing, and for the first time we have his words on tape a lot of them, and for the first time we have aides in realtime talking about him, and federal prosecutors have all of this. the detail in this document is unlike anything we have seen in the eight plus years now that we've been covering donald trump. >> it's a great point, and the closest anyone came was robert mueller's volume 2 where don mcgahn and his chief of staff's notes where trump tells him to fire mueller and put out the false statement, it's i think obstructive acts 3, 4, and 5 that come the closest to what katy is saying, but actual trump's voice on tape we haven't heard or seen before. >> donald trump's reaction to don mcgahn. >> he fired him. he ultimately fired him. >> why are yo

s arraignment of donald trump. the same kind of energy. donald trump goes into the courtroom. will be entered. >> when the trials are going to be done. that is really for aileen cannon to be able to control the docket. i did want to say quickly. i was interested in your setup. can you imagine aileen cannon after all the stuff she did, clearly, it favor donald trump, reading the 49-page indictment, seeing what he did, -- >> what i'm saying, that's crazy. >> don't you think, yeah, you would think if the case stays with, are she's going to make sure she minds for p's and q's. >> the legal states are saying this. well judge cannon has a very public rebuke from the 11th circuit court, the earlier stages of this case, they believe that it had an effect. she is going to be possibly putting a better foot forward. she cares about the reputation. we don't know if that's true. we don't have any insights. it's all speculation. >> it is. i, mean look, it's a federal. judge you would think that they want to do their job, they'd have to follow the law. the arbiters of the fact, the determine

donald trump is about to pull up there. what's the scene? >> reporter: hi there, katy, actually, just a few seconds ago, former president trump in his motorcade just came by. you can see a group of trump supporters have arrived here, about several dozen or so, and they have been chanting "let's go trump" as the former president made his way through. there's a heavy security presence. the street has been blocked off for several minutes, and it all comes after local authorities are saying they have resources on hand to deal between 5,050,000 people. of course, no indication anywhere close to that will actually show up, but there's been a small crowd of supporters here that have been here now for the past hour or two here in doral, greeting the former president, and we have been speaking with them, and they do see this as a political persecution, no matter when you ask them about specifics of the indictment. but, again, with former president trump expected to spend the night here at his doral golf club and resort, he's expected to stay here over

minutes, more than half an hour, for the proceedings to progress through the focus of being on donald trump. his attorney was clearly aware that there were going to be things applying to him as they're discussing these release conditions. who trump could talk to. and the judge did acknowledge that walt nauta worked for donald trump. he worked for his every day. and so having a situation where the two of them can only be -- cannot discuss anything at all and could only communicate through their attorneys would be quite difficult. >> he's his personal aide, for those who don't know him. he's not a house hold name. he fetches his diet cokes and was seen fixing his collar at a golf tournament at mar-a-lago recently. is there anything that stood out to you kaitlan, as you were in the room as you were watching this. >> this is one the quietest courtrooms, we were instructing there there was no disturbances and anybody would be removed an the number of security officials in the courtroom both protective details, for these two men, jack smith, the special counsel and donald trump, the former presid
