of a crime. so that s why they re able to get around that here. but look, the former president clearly has a lot of legal problems, but this is arguably the biggest problem he has right now. but the most eminent maybe is what s happening here in new york because the grand jury this is totally separate. this is the stormy daniels done. we went like a banner to be like this is which one? we re talking about another one, the other one that s happening here in new york. it s important to be to be clear and this is when the grand jury is going to reconvene today . they didn t meet yesterday. we don t really know why. what s the significance of them meeting today? you re absolutely right. that this is the most imminent legal threat, though i think we can all agree. it s not the most consequential and we talk about the facts of the case. right. this is about hush money payments and what s so interesting this week is prosecutors have had to take up cause after what happened monday, remember at
things move in new york, what left after michael cohen testifies? something else happened today that makes it i thin even more imminent it s sorry to use the word that fan willis uses, that everyone use without knowing the definition of the word eminent is but what i m getting at is the thing i was looking for is, ar we hearing that defense counse for donald trump went and made a presentation to th prosecutors? because that s something tha is really routine, any sort of ethical responsible prosecutor is going to give tha opportunity and, frankly, an good defense lawyers going t take that opportunity, there i no doubt about that on either. and and the new york times reported that that meeting has occurred already and the import of that is, i think when the grand jur presentation is over, it i alvin bragg s decision at that point and there is nothing left, so frankly, that could even be
well, here s a trivia fact you may not have known since nineteen sixty seven fifty six years the disney corporatioe 1967, n has enjoyedr total control over aboutre forty square miles miles of flo, its own little vatican city. the and this is by act to the legislatur florida legislature, which empowered disney to function effectively as its government. disneyh empowe o act could even acquired ac territory outside its chunk of land by eminent. it may just take it frominen people. now, last year, people began to wonder why would disney, which is a totally politicized company,would bush s race hate, race, hate and sexualized propaganda on children, whyl would they have all these special benefits in the state of florida? good question. so las why woult year, florida s pushe legislature passed a bill ending this weird little of course th disney. and of course, they hated it. florida s governor ron desantiss pushed for and then signed thath bill into law. governor desantis joins us tonigh
conversation. obviously, he s somebody that has something to say that will piss off everybody. but also, he, you know, is one of the preeminent political comics of our time, if not the you know, the most eminent, just in terms of just specifically political comedy. and of course, he works at hbo max, which is our sister channel. so it was a really interesting conversation. i m looking forward to it. i do wonder how much bleeping we re in for tonight. no bleeps! i said no bleeps! we re not governed by the fcc. we re cable, abby! we can say what the whatever the f we want to. it s 1:00 in the afternoon. jake tapper, thank you very much. fair enough. you can watch jake s interview with bill maher tonight on c cnn at 9:00 p.m. eastern, pririme-time. wee will be right back. forever.
