i m afraid not, neil. the law that he s talking about is the presidential records act. it explicitly excludes from coverage of the under the presidential records act agency reports. what the case what the case about is in mar-a-largo are intelligence agency reporting about national defense matters. those are not covered under the presidential records act. i don t take any joy saying that. i d love to see a resolution here where president trump said he was sorry for what he did and president biden especially in view of his own problem made his administration drop the case. i m not holding my breath waiting for either of those things to happen. neil: there s another distinction here i m not a lawyer. you are very good ones.
by e. jean carroll who has accused him of rape. in the meantime, the current president will continue to do what he did yesterday, rise above the chaos, focus on the issues he was meeting with his science and technology advisers yesterday. i want to bring in nbc s kayla tausche at the white house, jonathan lemire, host of msnbc s way too early and an msnbc political analyst. so kayla, again, president biden made no mention of trump yesterday. he s got a pretty light schedule for the rest of the week, and i don t think we can do anything but not hold our breath waiting for him to comment on donald trump. but how do you run against somebody who s so famous and adept at sucking up the oxygen reporter: well, chris, i think the white house would argue that that counterprogramming from them began a very long time ago, not least of which last year with several legislative achievements that the president notched that became the bedrock for the 2022
