meanwhile, it appears that the judge in the mar-a-lago classified documents case will not fast-track the trial. so, will it happen before the 2024 election? he and the one and only geraldo rivera will be here tonight to talk politics his exit from fox. and why he says he ll use his energy to keep donald trump from becoming president again. i got the letter on sunday night, think of it. i don t think they ve ever sent a letter on sunday night. they re in a rush, they want to interfere, it interferes with the election. election interference. never been done like this in the history of our country. it s a disgrace. okay, let s begin with tomorrow s news tonight. donald trump announced, as you just heard, that he got this letter from the special prosecutor. telling him that he is a target of the criminal investigation into election interference. does that mean that trump could be indicted again? soon? let s ask cnn senior justice
republicans are still supporting donald trump for this one? explained it as stockham syndrome a couple of days ago. but he kidnapped the republican party, abuses for years, and then all of a sudden, his biggest victims are now coming to court to protect him. that s all i can explain it with. look, at the end of the day, donald trump has done almost irreparable damage to the current republican party, and it s time for a gop to point out to see these electorates, which we are going to see the same story play out in georgia in a few weeks with fani willis and the fulton county investigation. i m not certain of, but i feel it s likely. these are great people in their communities, upstanding people that the president of the united states told them to something in the they believed him. now granted train wreck their finances, train wreck some of their lives. some of them might end up going to jail because of it. and yet, your former boss, the governor brian kemp. just on cnn last night.
the doj has been weaponized against donald trump here s. that moment. jack smith has been prosecuted democrats as well. he prosecuted or at, least was part of the prosecution of senator mendez, senator john edwards. are you saying that if he finds evidence of criminality he, should not talk charge donald trump anyway? what i m saying is that when you are going after somebody on the other side of the political spectrum, if you re stretching statutes to try and criminalize maybe political disagreements, that s wrong. this is all speculation. i think that we have gone down the road in this country of trying to criminalize distances in politics, weather than saying oh, you don t like somebody? defeat them in the election rather than try to use the justice system. do you understand why trump s gop opponents aren t seizing on his possible crimes? i remember them watching this. as an american voter, but also

storm the capitol or calling the vice president and asking him to conspire with us not to do is drop. you re, right i need a new verb, not cooperating, just telling the truth is what you re saying. it s considered cooperating? it is considered cooperating. cooperating is looked at in a criminal conspiracy as going against your criminal code. in this case, if these are people who took an oath to the added state government, and they did something with the president of the united states, that they need to describe the grandeur, they should tell the truth. that s cooperating, it s cooperative. i got you. i totally get the distinction. here evan, there s another story that s gonna get a lot of play, tomorrow. that is michigan to tierney general has charged 16 people with being fake electors. they falsely claimed that donald trump won michigan in 2020. what have you learned on this? right, these are 16 people who were part of this scheme to set up these fake electors. and claim tha
