kara-murza's imprisonment. we urged the administration, on a bipartisan, bicameral basis, to label vladimir, quote, unlawfully and wrongfully detained, unquote. we asked for that designation because that title is more than just words under the statute. it would prioritize m mr. kara-murza's case at the state department, and it would unlock new tools for our negotiators to act with speed and success to get him released, around he needs that speed. since we last wrote the secretary about mr. kara-murza, nothing has changed. nothing has changed, that is, except his decreasing health and increasing danger. mr. kara-murza's family has grave concerns that he may not survive much longer. so we're talking about the life of this permanent u.s. resident. before this prison term, the russian dictator, putin, had tried twice to assassinate mr. kara-murza by poisoning him. he was indeed poisopoisoned, an although vladimir survived each attempt, the efforts succeeded at weakening his body. and then when alexi nafshalney rece

. >> kara. thank you. kara scannell reporting, let's get some insight right now from former federal prosecutor andrew weisman. he is the coauthor of a brand new book entitled the trump indictments, the historic charging documents with commentary there you see the cover andrew, thanks very much for joining us. trump is again asking judge varchar to recuse herself from this upcoming trial, arguing he's conflicted by his daughters political work. what do you make of this? >> well, this as qarrah of it is really the exact same motion he made months ago and was denied and it wasn't an i just by the judge. this is one where the judge to be sure that he was making the call correctly,

>> kara: no.-- especially when we have 300 illegal -- on the terror watch list apprehended at the southern border making a massive national security imperative. we do not know how many have crossed our borders with malicious intent. if they are waiting to be activated we do not know, and kamala harris is supposed to be investigating the root causes of the border, and she is also supposed to be the artificial intelligence in charge, she is also tasked with looking at the relationship within europe when it came to the ukraine conflict and now she's on podcast completely disconnected and that seems to be the problem with the biden administration as a whole. >> emily: do you think that central role will work? or they going to just steamroll over the points that they just made saying is in a just amazing she's on the podcast right now? >> kayleigh: every politician wants to be likable and relatable, and they are going to be encouraged to do something like this and i do not blame folks who say look you

let's bring in cnn's kara scannell. kara, i didn't trump respond to that moment. and how did he carry himself today? you were in that courtroom all day? >> so we'll during that moment, trump hadn't glared at the judge. he had a fixed stare at him as the judge is making a lot of comments that weren't necessarily going in trump's favor at the end of the hearing or what trump thought was the anti stood up to leave and the judge, who is not finished told him, please sit down, sir. but otherwise, during jury selection shan, which took up the entire morning, there was the routine moments or the 22 jurors were answering those 42 questions. and at that time, trump appeared to be leaning back at times he's closed his eyes. other times he was flipping through pieces of paper that didn't look like they were the questionnaire. they seem to have charts or graphs on them. but then when his attorneys began questioning the jurors furs and asking them specifically what their opinion was of donald trump. again, he turned his chair in their direction. he was craning as next, so he w

kara why are prosecutors so concerned? >> we'll prosecutors said that they don't want to hand over the names of the first three witnesses in this case because they believe that donald trump has violated a gag order that already is in place, and they brought it up again this morning saying that since they raise this concern earlier in the week, trump has in their minds of violated the gag order seven more times they'd already identified what they said were for violations. so that brings it up to what they think is 11 violations of the gag order and the two of the examples that they mentioned today was trump linking to a new york post article that referred to michael cohen, a key witness in this case as a serial perjurer what part? what did this gag order says that the former president can't make any comments about any witnesses in this case. trump's lawyers pushed back saying that michael cohen is not like any witness. he has repeatedly made comments about trump, including leading up to this trial. the prosecution also rais

well, kara scannell reporting for us. thank you, kara very much. i want to bring it out. elliot williams right now, what's the significance of alvin bragg himself asking the judge to now clarify whether the gag order includes members of the president's family well, if it was very important for alvin bragg to make this request, and here's why on friday that the district attorney's office had >> merely sent a letter asking the judge to clarify or confirm what the gag order said. well, they were asking for it to be expanded, not clarified, or confirmed. and even setting aside how reprehensible from the speech that the president has engaged in the gag orders simply did not prohibit it on its language. it didn't speak about the judge or the judges coming up. so it was very important for prosecutors to data go to court and specifically asked the judge to expand the gag order >> interesting, le let me follow up or you surprised we haven't already heard from judge merchan about the gag order. do you see any first amendment issues with the including the judge's family? >> well, th

cnn's kara scannell is joining us live from new york, where she was inside the courtroom today kara, we now have the first official court transcript well, if there are no cameras in the courtroom, but they are public interest in this case is insatiable. so the treat chief administrative judge here took an extraordinary step, and so they would make the transcript public every day. so anyone can look word for word to see what is happening inside the courtroom behind me, this on the day when prosecutors laid out the evidence, they hope to prove in this case and trump's lawyers said what his defense would be saying that he was not guilty of these crimes as opening statements got underway opening statements and the first witness, a former tabloid executive front and center monday as the first criminal trial of donald trump officially got underway i think it went very well. prosecutor said the case boils down to a conspiracy and cover up that trump orchestrated the scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election and covered it up by lying in his business records. assistant district attorn

kara scannell. thank you. very, very much. so let's discuss this in more with our senior legal analyst, the former federal prosecutor, elie honig, get first of all, le what's your reaction to this latest trump appeal to delay? >> well if i don't think trump has much of a chance of either succeeding on this appeal or of using it to cause a delay in the april 15 trial start date. so the new issue that trump is bringing up on appeal now as qarrah relates to his claim of presidential immunity. but first of all, there's a procedural problem which is as kara said, too late, he was opposed to make this motion months ago. and second of all, if you look at the substance of it, remember the crime here relates to hush money that was paid to stormy daniels before the 2016 election. so donald trump wasn't even president yet. now, some of the reimbursements spilled over into the first weeks and months while trump was president. but i don't think there's any way he has a realistic the claim of immunity in this particular trial. >> as you kno

kara alaimo, try because >> this marjorie taylor greene for that one.es, it's witchcraft >> this sounds like the kind of thing that you would get on board >> absolutely not. no. i saw an eclipse when i was a kid and that was plenty for me. and in 20 years when i'm really old with everyone here, it's amazing, >> it is one of the most how far, far would you go to get see the eclipse? i walked three feet outside and see the 89% occlusion that's going to happen in the dc area. i'm not flying anywhere for it. i'll see you on talk will cover he got more things to your nih next the legal right to disconnect california lawmakers have introduced a bill, gibbon, workers the right to ignore emails, to ignore calls or texts from their bosses after hours if it passes, it will be the nation's first law allowance. such a thing. >> and it would follow similar >> rules are ready and effect and more than a dozen countries, lulu, are you yea or nay? hey, on ignoring your boss after hours, if it's legally protected, i'm a hard yea. and that's what this is about. i mean, i

cnn's kara scannell joins me now. if we have to break away to the secretary period of state, but what more can you tell us? it sounds as though trump is once again trying to dance right up to that line that the judges laid out saying you know, you can go this far, but no farther. >> yeah i mean, immediately after the just hours after the judge issued this gag order last night, donald trump is up again this time targeting the judge and the judge has made clear he is not part of this gag order. he is fair game and it's all the past gag orders that trump has faced is also kind of have that same contour and trump is taking advantage of that log which and more attacks today. but the judge expanded the gag order, which only protected prosecutors, witnesses, and jurors from being the subject of trump's attacks to now, including family members of his as well as the manhattan district attorney, alvin bragg's family, and he did this at the request of manhattan prosecutors who brought this to the judge's attention given the on s

>> kara: i can tell you why he is in that courtroom because it is political. because letitia james they all ran on the promise to get donald trump in no uncertain terms. i you coming back to the nbc poll, that talks about how donald trump is a head when it comes to registered voters, but if donald trump were convicted of a family this year, joe biden will pull ahead when it comes to a favorite in the general election. so that is why he is in the courtroom. >> emily: in the last eight days do you think that there's been any change in that sway in the public opinion? do you see people congealing my seeing that this is a mockery of the criminal justice system? >> dagen: something jumped out at me, and it was something someone said yesterday, it has been repeated over and over again, but she had said this is a criminal trial and there is no criminal evidence. as of yet. what law did donald trump break? and this is just me thinking out loud, this goes beyond alvin bragg, because he had left his job as the number three in the justice department and gave the opening

cnn's kara scannell is outside the courthouse for us >> kara, what happened? >> kate, the whole sentencing hearing took less than five minutes. alan weisselberg walked into the courtroom, but he is not walking out. he was handcuffed and we'll begin serving his sentence today. so the judge went through this very quickly. she asked alan weisselberg if he had anything he wanted to say today. he said no, your honor. the judge said that i will send it due to the agreed five month prison sentence and that is what she did. and then after that, the officers came over, cuffed weisselberg behind his back and escorted him out of the courtroom so he will begin serving this five months sentence for perjury, as you know, this is the second time he's pleaded guilty. the first time to tax fraud charges in that case. he also got a five month and sentence, ended up serving about 100 days in rikers island. it's possible that's how that will go this time, but this is now the second time for donald trump's former chief financial officer for a longtime associate, has pleaded guilty

two weeks after the dinner kara-murza was back in moscow.nd said the kremlin chooses poison as a favorite method of assassination because it gives plausible deniability, noting that kara-murza was speaking from moscow the anchor asked whether he was concerned that if he is targeted again he will die. kara-murza answered, quote, the biggest gift we could offer the kremlin is to give up and run. hours later as he returned home he was arrested and charged. it's so harrowing because it seems that he knew and he told you he knew exactly what his fate would be. so as we cover these events he may be the least surprised by them. tell me what -- tell me how someone -- how someone does that. how someone -- and you put it all in front of him. right? he loves his family, obviously, and they love him. but just tell me more about him and his decision to go back and criticize the kremlin. >> well, it's hard for us to really understand what -- how a person could be so selfless. but he was. when i pressed him on go back and all the risks he was taking, he sa

kara, what can you tell us about exactly what's going to happen when we get back? from this break for lunch well, now that these seated this full jury and all six alternates, the judge has sent them home and told them all to come back monday morning where he expects they will be opening statements this afternoon when this when this interview gets underway or excuse me, when the hearing gets underway? >> and they'll discuss the sandoval issue. that is how much of trump's pass legal issues they can bring up will be debated between the attorneys and prosecutors want to bring up several recent verdicts that's the e jean carroll verdicts were trump was found to have sexually abused her into fainter. also, the civil fraud judgment, nearly half 1 billion for the judge found that trump had engaged in persistent and repeated fraud and did not find his testimony on the stand to be credible. so these are all issues prosecutors think that the jury should be able to hear donald trump challenged on if he does take the stand at his lawyers are expected to oppose this. we have not

there asking questions now to delve deeper kara into how these jurors might ultimately be able to be impartial. >> yeah. the first one of his now the prosecution then one of the prosecutors on the case is now addressing the jury box and aunts asking them questions he has 30 minutes to ask these questions and try to root out any possible concerns that he might be able to identify an enemy per total. is that right? this is 30 minutes to talk to the 18 jurors that are currently in the box and he's talking to them about who they might hear from in this case. >> he said that there are some witnesses who have some edge. the former publisher national enquirer, an adult film star, and michael cohen, who has already admitted to having lied and he's asking the jurors can you set aside likability and credibility? can you if you don't like the person, can you still find them credible? this or colleagues say that no juror in the box and that they couldn't naibe trying to say shouldn't decided just on what this one person says. anyway, can you keep an open mind until you hear all of the evidence t

kara scannell, geoff toobin as well. we spent some time at the start of the trial on the catch and kill scheme at the center of it. all time we're focusing on the one woman, one of two who silence candidate trump allegedly tried to buy stormy daniels her story before that moment. and since from our randy k stormy daniels don't know who i am. >> i suggest you don't do that to you get long before she was stormy daniels. she was stephanie gregory born in. baton rouge, louisiana, she reportedly had dreams of becoming a veterinarian or a journalist. she was the editor of the school newspaper and president of the four h club beneath her 1997 high school yearbook photo a caption that reads, we will all get along just fine as soon as you realize that i am queen by the time she was 17, she was dancing and strip clubs across the south stripping was her entry into porn hollywood began to notice her to director judd aporeto cast her in some of his comedies including the 40 year-old virgin i was ahead of the curve on the whole. >> ye

indeed, kara scannell. thank you very much. i want to take a closer look now at the critical evidence that potentially could shape the trial going forward. cnn's kaitlan poets is back with us once again, caitlin take us through some of the key exhibits that juror saw during the course of this week and how they fit into this case there are two ways that the prosecutors can get evidenced in before the jury and they need to to prove their case if they want to prove it, they can get testimony and they can get exhibits. >> and they're using both of those tools polls to try and show exactly how this alleged business falsification of records happens. so one of the witnesses we saw today that was rhona graff. she is one of the people that was working at the trump organization with donald trump. and the things she's testifying to, our bot going to become building blocks that other witnesses will probably share similar information about or underline what she had witnessed and is telling the jury about the trump was signing checks often,

so get us kara scannell is joining us. she's got details. kara tell us about this new filing so trump's lawyers have asked the judge to consider a motion for his recusal. this is because of work that hit the judge's daughter does for a political consulting firm, that firm has done work in the past for the biden and kamala harris campaigns. so trump's team has arguing to the judge that their business and his daughter stands to benefit financially actually, from this trial because it will provide fodder for trump rivals to fund off of. now prosecutors are opposing this. they say that an advisory committees and judicial ethics has already said that this was not grounds for the judge to recuse, and also they say that trump's team has put together a daisy chain of innuendos, but no actual evidence that the judge's daughter or her company has benefited or will benefit from this. this comes though, as the judge has already expanded this gag order in the case to include preventing trump from talking about his family members, including his daughter,

and kara touched on this? little bit. we all remember 2016 swirling around the trump campaign were questions perhaps about this personal misconduct. they might have, and this is the allegation on the part of the prosecutors. it collaborated to benefit the presence campaign by essentially shushing these ends these personal intimate relationships. >> what were some of the key points in trump's defense team's opening statement that stand out to you, it's important that we call them opening statements, not arguments. they're just saying what they think the evidence is going to be and they went hard after michael cohen and stormy daniels on credibility witness credibility. number one, michael cohen with he has criminal convictions and his record, stormy daniels might have had a reason for moving forward with this. she came forward with the story and finally, wolf, really important here too big points made by the defense using the term president trump is innocent. that's not something that prosecutors have to establish this ide

. >> cnn's kara scannell was in court for all this. kara, how attentive? >> word jurors, as all of this sleeves was displayed before them jake, it was a very short court session today. >> david pecker was on the and for just over two hours. and during his testimony, the jurors appear to be paying close attention. you could see when pecker was testifying, he often looked at the jury box when he was answering some of the questions. and you could see the jurors eyes following him back to the prosecutor, who would then ask the follow-up question. a bit like a tennis match for their heads going back and forth. we also saw there was some evidence introduced today, some emails. this agreement, the that was painted trump's the doorman at trump tower that came into evidence and you can see the jurors looking down at the monitors. they all have a monitor that shows what the email is that's being displayed to the courtroom and also to them individually. so we saw a lot of them looking down, paying attention to the exhibits that were being entered into evidence today,

i agree with kara. i think if there's one more shot that would be it. i also agree that it will lose on substance. there's a legal doctrine called abstention, meaning the federal records including the us supreme court, are very reluctant to step in and pause things at a trial level, at a state court. and i have to say this >> when you're a >> lawyer, your credibility is everything and you get to a point where you start to lose it with the judge. it's like a boy who cried wolf phenomenon. if you come in every day to three times a day and say, oh, my gosh, we have this emergency. oh, my gosh. this is such an urgent situation. you have to pause it. judge, is going to start tuning you out and i think trump's team needs to consider that the former prison say shared the social media posts in defense of himself from stormy daniels, former attorney michael avinatan is in prison right now trump added his own commentary calling daniels is in form of trump fixer michael cohen, quote, sleaze bags. they both likely witnesses at the trial, would that violate the gag

it's the least we can do for them. >> ainsley: kara, listen to this.s apologizing to parents, the social media ceos during a hearing at the end of january. >> there are a number of parents who children have been able to access illegal drugs on your platform. what do you say to those parents. >> i'm so sorry that we have not been able to prevent these tragedies. we work very hard to block all search terms related to drugs on our platform. [applause] j. >> you saw mark zuckerberg turn to the parents and say he is sorry. governor ron desantis is banning social media for children under the age of 14. then you have congress now considering the kids online safe-t act. it outlaws manipulative marketing and amplifying harmful content that some of these social media outlets are presenting to our children. can we trust them? >> no, we have shown that we can't. and here is the rub, if anyone takes anything away from this, this is what they should remember. tech companies are deliberately designing their products to attract younger and younger audiences. they know
