cnn's paula reid are joining me here along with kaitlan collins. so paula, we're getting our viewers who are just joining us minute by minute accounts from our three correspondence in the courtroom and in the overflow room that would viewer gonna be seeing on the left-hand side of the screen exactly. >> and we're getting updates after our own slack channel here. and this is it. the jury yes, he they are now getting their instructions from the judge. he is walking them through what they're going to see, starting with opening statements. he's explaining the prosecution will go first, then the defense. he's going to explain the burden is on the prosecution. in fact, there's many parts of this trial the defense doesn't even have to put on because again, the burden is that of the prosecutors. he's also going to talk often through how they should operate throughout the next five to six weeks. he's going to tell him not to talk to anyone about the case, right? don't read anything about the case. so this is going to be their mission statement. he's laying o

cnn's kaitlan collins and paula reid are also outside the courthouse right now.ke and we are obviously watching closely as a lot of these key decisions are being made by the judge right now as to >> what the jury is actually going to hear once the jury is brought in, we also have jury consultant attorney ronaldo's tibial here with me as well. and we're not, we're looking at this michael cohen issue that they're arguing. it's actually quite important because they're basically arguing which of michael cohen's crimes that he pleaded guilty to. can they talk about here because they're saying, well, we're bringing up some of them, but we're not bringing up the one about the campaign finance violation. the judge seem to agree that there is concern that if the jurors here that they may associate trump with that and believe he also committed a campaign he's here. he says he did this with trump. therefore, trump must also be guilty. so that seems to be a fair ruling, but generally on cross-examination, they're gonna be able to cross diamond him about any crimes of dishone

paula reid. and of course, kaitlan collins, as well. this hearing is on the judge by the end of this could hold donald trump and contempt. >> yeah, it's totally possible. and we heard a right that you can see on your screens as prosecutors are talking about how these posts pose a very real threat to these proceedings. he goes on to say that these posts both intimidate both the defendants direct targets and others who may be called to testify during this trial. and the point of the gag order it's to protect witnesses, protect the jury, protect prosecutors, people who are just either doing their job are complying with their civic duty so that they are not intimidated, that they are not harm first and foremost, but also that they are not afraid to participate in these proceedings and prosecutors are arguing that trump's that violations repeated up to ten. they just added another one. so at least 11 that these are clear violations of the gag order and putting this whole trial, this historic trial at risk. >> i mean, trump walked outside of

actress quiet is election interference pure and simple in those words, i want to turn to paula reid and kaitlan collins, who are covering this along with me here in new york about what we expected from the opening statements, both by the prosecution and by the defense, we only heard a little bit from david, but we'll have a lot more of him tomorrow. he's really an essential start off for this framing entire nature of the deal. >> that's exactly right. and i think he could take up most of the rest of the week. so i want to remind people to scheduling here. it's really unique for this case. that tomorrow is the judge is going to hear arguments about a gag order on whether trump violated it's of course, not even going to start until after 11 i didn't know goes until two. there's no court on wednesday, then hopefully back in session on thursday and friday, but i would be surprised if it gets any other witnesses besides david this week, he's a great one to start off with. not only is he a colorful new york character, but he helps the prosecution frame their argument that this was not just a one-off time whe

collins right outside the court. kaitlan yeah jake fascinating to listen to those conversations and trump's attorney making those arguments. i've gotten my panel back here with me, paula reid, and kasie hunt, and paula, there was a moment that we were all listening to that caught everyone's year where it was justice ketanji brown, jackson, essentially asking the reverse of what trump's team, trump's attorney was arguing, which was he saying it? this is what jack smith and the government says it is. then future presidents are going to be chilled. they're not gonna be able to make decisions as bold and fearlessly as we've seen, presidents do for the last over 200 years and she kinda reversed that questioning, tim, i want to listen to that moment because there's a few hours ago what just this is katon to brown jackson had to ask to trump's attorney if someone with those kinds of powers, the most powerful person in the world with the greatest amount of authority could go into office knowing that there would be no potential penalty for committing crimes i'm trying to understand what the disincentive is from turning the oval office into the sea heat of criminal activity in
