john roberts. >> aishah: critics say it could be prevented, many pointing their finger at kim gardner, accusing her of neglecting her duties. >> john: the missouri attorney general filing to remove her from office but she is remaining defiant. >> attorney general and others use this unfortunate incident and tragic happening to this young lady as a political stunt. >> john: and you'll never believe who she is linked to, left wing mega donor george soros. she's just one of dozens of prosecutors who have received funding from him. >> aishah: including los angeles district attorney george gascon. a new update on a case in his district, too. stick around for that. >> john: brian kilmeade with reaction to all of this. >> aishah: and grady trimble live in washington. what more do we know about the legal filings against the st. louis top prosecutor? >> we know it's the first step in what could be a long legal process to try to remove circuit attorney kim gardner. the situation in st. louis is highlighting how progressive prosecutors like her have come to power all across the country. gardner is claiming th

john: lindsay you've been on this case for a long time. kim gardner had tried once before to get a new trial. what was different this time? lindsay: what was different was lamar johon. from that trial in st. louisll the way to the supreme court, the question was does the prosecutor have the authority to go to court and overturn the conviction. the court said no but called on the legislature to give them that power. so the legislature gave them the power to allow them to do this. kim gardner filed that appeal. john: you spent most of your life in prison. you told us when we met last time that as long as there's life, there's hope. you had so many setbacks. so many times the courts said no. how did you keep your hope alive during that time? lamar: it was all i had. i couldn't imagine giving up on something that i know was wrongfully taken from me. i couldn't mang giving up. john: not only did you keep open alive, but you don't seem angry. you didn't seem angry at what was done to you. how do you explain that? lamar: holding on to anger would be trading

for conspiracy theories, but edwin stanton did order a photographer by the name alexander gardner to photograph johnwilkes booth's remains dead. and to my knowledge, that photograph has never surfaced. so just little food for thought. we're going to jump ahead to stop seven in cleveland. this stop is notable because cleveland had the foresight to construct an outdoor forum for lincoln's viewing all the other stops. the funerals were held in. a capitol building or some sort of hall where the public had to be funneled up steps down hallways and through this way, in that. and cleveland had the great idea. hey let's have the funeral outside. we can get more people to view him so they created this chinese style and the days leading up to the president's arrival in cleveland, the newspapers, even printed. ladies, please do not put hoops in your skirt. so they could fit more people in line. all right. they were expecting 120,000 people to view the president during the stop in cleveland. unfortunately, again, heavy something that seemed to plague the lincoln funeral train kind of put a damper on the crowd.

gardner. let's start with theunidentify ed objects becoming quite the trend. i was in the white house briefing room when johnirby broke the news to us they had shot this down over alaska. we had a couple more in recent days. has the administration given us any indication as to what they were? and when should we expect a more substantial update? >> defense officials briefed reporters last night. they haven't given us much else. the objects continue to be unidentified. all that we know is two were shaped like cylinders. one was shaped like an octagon. they've said they are shooting them down out of an abundance of caution. after we saw the chinese spy balloon earlier this month, there's been heightened scrutiny from lawmakers from the american public, wondering what is in the air space. something that was interesting that i thought from defense officials yesterday, they said there are objects that are in the air space for not nefarious purposes. nothing would pose a threat to national security for legitimate research purposes. there's heightened scrutiny because they believe that china could be operating a glo
