Between former President Trump and special counsel jack smith. A short time ago, the federal judge overseeing trumps election case responded to a court filing from smith theres night. Smith is seek a protective order after trump posted this yesterday evening, saying, quote, if you go after me, im coming after you. Smith is pointing to that message and asking the judge in the case to set limits on trump and his legal team when it comes to publicly discussing sensitive evidence and the judge has given the trump team until 5 00 p. M. This sunday to respond. Just this afternoon, lawyers asked a judge for more time to weigh in on what restrictions should be imposed. Joining us now to discuss, democratic congresswoman Veronica Escobar of texas. Thanks for joining. When you saw these words that trump wrote in that threatening post, what did you think of that . What was your concern there . Well, good afternoon, jim. It was as predicted. I mean, i knew he would not be able to help himself. He is a very dangerous person, and he is always, whenever he perceives himself as a person, he fights back, and he does that by threatening people and frequently his supporters respond to that. But this is a very serious case. And his actions are weighty and serious and i do hope that the judge really takes a close look at trumps history in this regard. Well, and that leads me to this question. Should the judge in this case consider Warning Trump that he could go to jail if he continues to make these kinds of threats . You know, the judge already admonished trump, his lawyers were there with him. They know the risks involved. And yet trump continues to push the boundaries of whats acceptable. I have complete faith in the judges decision, and i dont want to weigh in either way. But it is really important that people be protected throughout this process. We saw on january 6th people lost their lives. There was serious damage. We know that trump really took hours to respond, and so we cant put people in jeopardy, especially those who are witnesses in this case. When you consider these threats hes making online, the potential to incite violence like what we saw january 6th, do you think that makes for a speedier trial . The longer the cases take, the more threats he could make. I believe there should be a speedy trial. I also believe the cameras should be allowed in the courtroom. This is a historic case. This is something that every american should be allowed to bear witness to, especially with the way that our democracy was threatened and the way that it continues to be threatened. So it is my hope that every american is paying attention and that everyone watches very closely what happens from here on out. The risks could not be higher. I do want to switch gears and talk about whats happening at the border. I know you have been on this program talking about this several times. Theres obviously more news on this front. An Immigration Attorney tells cnn that texas authorities have separated at least 26 migrant families last month, charging men with trespassing and turning over their wives and children to Border Patrol agents. The Texas Department of Public Safety is claiming that this is not like the trump era policy of family accepseparations. Whats your response, though, to that . Thats what it looks like . It is precisely what happened with the Trump Administration, where the Trump Administration decided they wanted to use cruelty as a deterrent. They wanted to use cruelty as a punishment against vulnerable souls seeking asylum. The Abbott Administration is no different, and in fact in many ways is even more cruel and engages in Even Deadlier conduct than the Trump Administration did. And it really its so important that people also see the incredible hypocrisy that is involved here. The families that were separated, the husbands were taken from their families and arrested because of trespassing. Well, greg abbott is trespassing on federal property and in International Waters with his Concertina Wire, with the buoys. Greg abbott is guilty of the very thing he is trying to punishment immigrants for. But never ttheless i will tell you, i am looking forward to the trial date. The Department Of Justice filed suit against texas. The doj asked the judge to accelerate the suit. The judge agreed. And there will be a hearing on this in a couple weeks on august 22nd. Yeah, and i do want to ask you about some of this. As you know, two bodies have been found in the rio grande near floating buoys, deployed by the governor, greg abbott. The Texas Department of Public Safety says its only aware of one drowning and it happened up river to the buoys and the body floated into the barrier. Thats what theyre telling the public. Whats your reaction . What are State Officials saying . What do we know . I have absolutely zero faith in what the Texas Department of Public Safety is telling the public. I dont know that they have the authority to make the determination about where these people drowned, and from the accounts that were getting its two people, including one child. I dont know that unless we have a witness or unless i hear it from federal law enforcement, we dont know if those two souls that were found in the buoys drowned near or at those buoys. We do know their bodies were caught it is incredibly gruesome and ghoulish. That should have been the alarm sounded to greg abbott to remove those buoys, but of course they just doubled down. They lean in, which is why its so critical and im so grateful to the Department Of Justice and the Biden Administration for taking greg abbott to court. Yeah, and as we were just talking about, this federal judge set a hearing date later this month, dojs lawsuit against texas to rovthese b buoys, and ts ek you called for the full force of the federal government to come down on governor abbott. Were showing your tweet right there could the administration be doing more in your view . Are there other levers they should be looking at . Other tools in the tool belt they should be looking at to try to get something going down there . Jim, it is my opinion that the federal government should send federal personnel to south texas and remove all of the Concertina Wire and remove the buoys. If someone placed items on my personal property, you Better Believe id go out and id remove them. But i will tell you there is a wisdom to what the Department Of Justice is doing. As much as i want to see absolutely immediate action, the Department Of Justice, the lawsuit that they are bringing against the state of texas, if the federal government prevails, and it is my hope that the federal government prevails, that will essentially prohibit greg abbott from doing this again on federal property. So i can see through the lawsuit there is sort of a more permanent resolution. I would like to lean in on a more immediate resolution, but id want resolution nonetheless. All right, congresswoman Veronica Escobar, thanks for joining us. We appreciate it. Russias ministry of defense e, sa one of its fighter jets intercepted a u. S. Drone over the black sea to prevent what it called a border violation. Russia claims the u. S. Air force drone apparently made a uturn when approached by the jet. No word yet from the pentagon. In the meantime, ukraine issued warnings to ships using Russian Black Sea ports. Comes after a wave of ukrainian sea drone attacks, including this one youre looking at here on a russian oil tank they are moscow says will not go without a response. Cnns Nick Paton Walsh joins us now. Nick, fill us in here. Why has the black sea suddenly become this major focal point . Reporter yeah, and totally unexpected, especially from moscow. Fair to say Vladimir Putin even has a fancy holiday home sat on the black sea area just down from where yesterdays attack occurred on an Amphibious Assault ship, and probably not too far away from where the Russian Fuel Cargo Ship was indeed hit this morning. That was carrying 5,000 tons or can carry 5,000 tons of fuel. Apparently nobody ended up on that. Yesterdays attack against the amphibious ship involved 100 people on board. The point here, jim, is these parts of the black sea are supposed to be way out of ukraines range. Theyre suppose to be the safe backwaters that russia could move its shapes to away from exposed areas around crimea. Instead day after day were seeing instances in which ukrainian drones, perhaps traveling hundreds of miles, are in fact coming straight into military vehicles, important parts of Russian Military infrastructure. Thats what they allege the fuel ship was. Just last week, the kirch bridge again hit by a ukrainian drone. That is two close to that area as well. So aeries of incidents here that show, firstly, the increased ingenuity of ukrainians using water drones, which frankly appear to carry enorus ps against exceptionally expensive russian. The fact that that range means russias parts of the black sea it used to consider impregnable are very much now targets for ukraine. And also, too, changing the narrative from about the grind here in the south, where ukraines counteroffensive is taking less land than it would have liked by this particular point, and still at this point russia is on the defensive. Jim . Nick, ukrainian president zelenskyy is confirming that some russian missiles were used in attacks today in ukraine, including where you are near where you are. What can you tell us about that . Reporter yeah, the kinzhal hypersonic missiles seem to have been launched. There appear to be some interceptions, but here in zaporizhzhia, an Aviations Plant may have been hit. Another area hit as well. This is common, frankly. This is part of the daily routine of russias often barbaric response towards ukraine, particularly when its experiencing much more symbolically embarrassing things like attacks on moscow, attacks on naval ports in the black sea area. We have been seeing these attacks nightly, frankly. They often cause deaths, unclear precisely if there was a lot of life from the attacks we heard of today, but for ukrainian civilians, part of the daily horrors since russia invaded, by choice, 18 months ago. Thats right. Nick paton walsh with that live report, thank you so much. Joining us for more on the Military Tactics in the black sea, retired air force colonel cedric layton. Theres new vom pretty extraordinary video that shows one of these ukrainian sea drones. Forgive my ignorance. I didnt realize they had sea drones or what sea drones were. What are we seeing here . Basically what were seeing here, jim, is a missile that is a drone that is acting kind of like a missile, that is going toward a ship. You can see the ship right there as its being approached by the drone. The drone is hitting it right on the side, basically in one of the more vulnerable points of the ship. So what this can do is really a lot of severe damage. It can actually take out a large portion of the ship. It can possibly sink it, depending on the amount of explosives. Now, in this particular case they tell us it was around 500, i think kilograms, of tnt. So pretty massive explosion is possible with Something Like this. I think what youre seeing is something that allows us to realize that the type of warfare were dealing with here is an asymmetric warfare, and thats different. Ukraine has practically mo navy right now except for these drones. Its remarkable, this has been a drone war in my ways. Looking at the video, whats remarkable to me is its got a pretty clear view coming from the drones point of view. That is a camera mounted on the drone, i take it. Right. While were getting a pretty good shot of the russian ship its approaching, im assuming that its essentially traveling under the cover of a lot of darkness here. The ships arent really seeing even though we can see the drone in the video, the ships arent seeing that thing coming. Theyre not. And they dont have to capability. Ships have radar thats designed to protect them against other surface vessels. They also, in the case of a naval vessel, they have radar to protect them against aircraft, but theres very little protection in the way of antidrone measures, and that really affects all of the naval vessels in the world. Thats something thats going to be a Big Game Changer once we really assess how capable the ukrainians have been in this case. Another rinkle the russians werent anticipating. Thats right. And this is one of the key things about this war. Theres a lot that happens that is unanticipated. There are a lot of Different Things that occur that arent part of the playbook, if you will. And they always say, any plan that is used in warfare falls apart once it makes contact with the enemy. Necessity, the mother of invention. Were seeing that time and again many this war. And ukraine is promising more drone attacks, issuing a war to using Russian Black Sea ports. This could get pretty dicey. Absolutely. And you saw it with the attack on the naval vessel in a sea port on the eastern shor black sea. That is actually one of russias major ports. By volume i think it is the largest in Terms Of Trade volume that goes through the port. So the fact that the ukrainians were able to send a drone that far and take out a ship, a naval vessel, that is a remarkable achievement. Yeah, they can just be extremely pesky, those drones. And ukraines air force said russia fired advanced missiles into the western part of the country. What can you tell us about that . Yes, particularly one of the things that they emphasize is the kinzhal missile. Its a hypersonic missile. Kit travel at least five times the Speed Of Sound, probably five or six times the Speed Of Sound depending on the variant and its designed to evade air defenses. They have been able to shoot down those missiles in the past. They are upping the ante and making it clear, these weapons, these Hypersonic Weapons which putin has been so proud of, that they are not invulnerable to. I was going to say, you can shoot those down as ukraine is demonstrating. Yes, and theyve done with our patriot system. All right, still ahead, i will be speaking with manuel oliver, frequent guest on this show. He lost his son in the Parkland High School massacre.

Officials say the 28yearold suspected gunman is now dead after exchanging gunfire with an s. W. A. T. Team while barricaded in a hotel early this morning. The two officers shot while conducting a traffic stop the other night. Officials say the suspect had an extensive criminal history. This is a tragedy for the department. These officers are out here every day protecting our community. For some piece of crap to do this to them because they dont want to go back to prison is ridiculous, and were not going to put up with it. If i recalls say the two officers remain in critical condition. Meanwhile in new yorking a social Media Influencer facing charges of enciting a riot. Duh see any of this video . Involving people who turned up expecting free electronics, including playstations. The mayhem prompted the nypd to activate a level four response, its highest disaster alert level after the large crowd on hand there turned violent. Im not against young people coming here. If we knew about this we could have the barriers out here, Police Officers. We could have did this orderly. Paolo sandoval joins us live. Looks like a mess out there. Where youre standing now looks better than 24 hours ago. Has this social Media Influencer responded to these charges . So, it really is hard to believe, jim, that it was just 24 hours ago that it was utter chaos taking place where im standing. Today there is a nonrelated protest behind me, street vendors. These are all signs of normalcy returning. Youll see some of the are basically trying to power wash the paint splatter. You see just behind that worker you see a temporary fence taken down by the mob during the height of the event. Many throwing Construction Equipment into cops, injuring several people, not just Police Officers with you members of the public. We did hear from New York City mayor eric adams about what may have led to this and also addressing the police response. Here he is. We believe there was some outside influences that may have attempte attempted toin aggravate the situation. I dont think people realize the level of discipline that was shown to take a very dangerous, volatile situation and to be able to bring it to a level of resolve without any loss of life, any substantial damage to property and without young people harming themselves. Reporter back out live, you hear the sights and sounds of the heart of manhattan. We should mention, we have reached out to the influencer thats at the center of this all. Hes expected to return to court on august 18th after being charged with inciting a riot and holding an unlawful assembly. It went from just a few hundred to a few thousand in minutes according to the nypd. Forgive my ignorance, were they handing out playstations . Were they handing out electronics, or were they just in such small numbers they couldnt keep up with the demand . What was that all about . Reporter yeah, its a really good question, and from what weve heard from officials and what weve seen took place yesterday, when he arrived, he did not show up with the free playstations, headphones promised. Thats why youre also hearing that part of the conversation really moving this story forward, nypd saying that influencers should also be held accountable. This underscores the power of social media. Yeah, absolutely, jim. Also underlines that lesson, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Maybe some of your younger viewers havent heard that one in a while. In the meantime, fresh off his arraignment for a third criminal indictment, President Trump joked that four may be his lucky number. Heres what he said at a fundraiser in blm last night. Every time they file an indictment we go way up in the polls. We need one more indictment to close out this election, one more indictment, and this election is closed out. Nobody has even a chance. Now, it is true that trump has remained the gop frontrunner despite his legal troubles. Its also true that a fourth indictment is looming, this time in georgia. And trump would not be able to pardon himself in this case if hes reelected. Cnns nick extra lenvalencia ex were ready. Reporter with a half smile and nod, fani willis says hes ready. Shes leading the investigation into former president and his efforts to overturn the 2020 Election Results in georgia. If somebody broke the law, i have a duty to prosecute and thats what i plan to do. Reporter while indictments could be handed down this month, its been more than a year since willis launched the investigation, Purposing A Special Purpose Grand Jury to issue a subpoena. It handed over its recommendations in february, after interviewing more than 75 witnesses, including some of the biggest anymores in trumps orbit. Mr. Giuliani, when you met with georgia lawmakers, did you lie to them . We will not talk about this until its over. Its a grand jury, and grand juries, as i recall, a secret. Reporter trumps former attorney, Rudy Giuliani is among the list of Trump Associates who received letter from at d. A. Indicating hes a target of the investigation. In the months after trumps loss in georgia, giuliani met with georgia lawmakers at the state capital three times, spreading Conspiracy Theories and election interference lies. I thought they were trying to steal something from me. Reporter Independent Atlanta based journalist George Cheedy stumbled into the group of electors. This week he received a subpoena to appear before the grand jury. Once the grand jury hears the case it will be in their hands to decide whether or not to issue indictments. I think theres enough to put things in front of a grand jury. Beyond that, im going let the grand jury figure it out. Reporter it has been months of work for a sprawling investigation that could include racketeering and conspiracy charges. And there are several indications it may be nearing the end. Friday, outside of the Fulton County courthouse, a heavier than normal Police Presence in the shadows of police barricades. Starting monday morning, streets around the courthouse will be closed. And now with trump already facing three other indictments, The Big Question here is, will Fulton County be yet another place where the former president is arrested and charged . Fulton county sheriff telling out front, his team is prepared. We understand what Courthouse Security looks like, and quite simply, we are ready. Reporter there are currently two grand juries seated in Fulton County. One of them is tasked with having the hear the case. Each grand jury consists of 24 jurors plus two alternates. 16 will be needed for corum and 12 will need to be in agreement for indictments to be handed out.

One of the Deadliest School shootings in American History was reenacted in parkland, florida, yesterday, nearly 140 live round fired inside Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School as part of a civil lawsuit against Broward County sheriff gregory tony and former School Resource officer scott peterson. Peterson remained outside for nearly an hour while a gunman shot and killed 27 students and faculty members. He was acquitted of criminal charges back in june. But theres more on that story. Lets kus with manuel oliver. Hes the father of shooting victim joaquin oliver, known as guac. He should have been celebrating his 25th birthday yesterday. Manuel, i know youre in chicago, but your thoughts on what took place at the school yesterday. Well, thank you for having me here. Always a pleasure. What happened yesterday, its actually something that some parents from parkland were able to put together. I celebrate that. I think its a good thing. Because theyre bringing the facts together, what really happened. And the only way to do it is by just trying to do the whole thing again, which i feel very bad for the neighbors and actually community in general, because they have to go through that. But you know what . This is about making sure that it wont happen again. I understand that some representatives were there yesterday. My daughter was there yesterday. And, yeah, sometimes you need to do these extreme things to make your point. This reenactment is part of a civil action, and youre hoping that a different jury will reach a different conclusion than the one we saw in the criminal trial against mr. Peterson. Yeah, thats the were not part of that litigation. My familys not part of that litigation, but as always, we support each other, and yes, i think that anyone held accountable lets talk about why youre in chicago. You made it your lifes mission to advocate for gun violence prevention. Youre having this event in chicago, in illinois. Tell us about it. Whats going on . Well, we got on a school bus 30 days ago. We hit the road, me and patricia and a couple young activists, and were visiting 23 cities that have been affected by gun violence, which is easy to find, honoring joaquins 21st birthday. We have a show tonight called guac, the one man show. Its been sold out. Then well continue with our tour the next 20 days before arriving home. Whats the show about . I know its about your son, about your experience. But tell us a little bit more and i guess what its going to do for you. For me its just a way of expressing my opinion. When im invited to a rally or event i have like ten minutes to say what i think. Now i have my own shows, and thats a whole hour of full attention. Its a great opportunity. Theater is a great tool to inform people and make your point. Thats what i get from there. But also i get the Share Stories from joaquin. Its a Roller Coaster of emotions. People laugh, cry, and they end up supporting everything that we do. It so far has been great. I havent presented in chicago before, so im very excited. Its a little cooler than it is down in south florida, i know that. I dont know what the weathers like today, but yeah, hopefully you got a jacket or something. Manuel, let me ask you friday would have been joaquins 23rd birthday. He must be on your mind. I know hes on your mind every minute of every day, but yesterday, your thoughts, this weekend, your thoughts. What do we need to know . Well, you know what . We celebrated joaquins birthday yesterday in Highland Park. We were together with families of victi from the Highland Park shooting. Patricia and m we have been trying to decrease the voids of the families, we the pents the last 30 days. Sabut true, there us. And the fact that were celebrating joaquins life with other families that feel the same was a very honest way of celebrating his birthday some were here. We always do Something Different on joaquins birthday. Meeting with other families, trying to raise voice, make a point, and addressing every possible angle. We need to win this fight, and i think we the parents know exactly how this is terrible and it need to be prevented. We dont want anyone else joining our club. Yeah, and thats the sad reality is that youre part of a community. And manuel, correct me if im wrong, you could crisscross this country going from state to state and community to community and finding people what you have been through, and the Community Just keeps getting bigger and bigger because we cant get a handle on this problem. This is the only country where vuyou could have a tour le the one we did visiting memorials from Gun Violence Victims in every other city. You dont find that in any other country. And this is the america people are ignoring. They dont want to see this reality. Were going to put it out there. We have interviews with families of victims. We have interviews with law enforcement. So were doing a whole, you know, program of the actual status of where we are, what we need to do, and what will be the next step. By the way, im headed to d. C. In a couple of weeks, and im bringing a huge, huge big surprise to the capital. Keep in the loop, stay in the loop. Thats what we call in this business a tease. Manuel oliver, great to see you as always. Thank you so much for what you do. Ware not sticking our heads in the sand on this problem. Thanks so much for your time. Good luck tonight.
