privilege is raised as sarah just said. it could mean there is evidence that directly implicates the president. we don t know. what we do know is that giuliani and parnas and fruman are tied up in the operation that the president has blessed to try to oust the former ambassador to ukraine, to dig up dirt on president trump s political enemies so the trial of these two individuals potentially does bring more evidence that could put the president in some kind of jeopardy. and so that is going to wind through this court, but this issue raised today as sarah said does imply direct implication in evidence of president. we ll stay on top of that. thanks very much. we more news coming up. including more on today s major breaking stories. president trump end sanctions on turkey and praised a great outcome in sear so why is a tof u.s. envoy telling congress, and
