and i don t know the answer. the pitcher who sang the national anthem did he then go and pitch the game? ashley: probably. i m a cardinals fan. is he beloved in st. louis. steve and it s his last year. ashley: yeah. ainsley: ains gwyneth paltrow vindicated after 2016 ski collision. brian: the jury finds t the actress not at fault. big blow to the man who sued her for $300,000. steve: first he sued her for 3 million and the judge said no, you can t have that you can have 300,000 and ultimately she won a buck yesterday. todd: she lost half a day of skiing over this. ainsley: she did get a massage. todd: half day of skiing. ainsley: got a massage. brian: you are right. i don t want to trivialize that. todd: good morning to all three of you. the jury ruling in favor in a
courtrooms. ive got two questions. first, will they say this is extraordinary. it s a former president of the united states, let s have cameras in the courtroom? judges have the discretion to allow, sure. steve: what do you think? i think it will happen. steve: will donald trump take the stand if it goes to trial? wow, if i were his lawyer, i would make it clear that the prosecution has the burden entirely and i don t want to shift the focus to my client. steve: because you know he would want to go to the stand to protect his name. but the john edwards avoided conviction in a comparable case. john edwards did not testify. brian: do you think same judge that presided over the grand jury that was the judge overseeing the case and trial of the trump organization and put the cfo at rikers island? he will almost certainly oversee the arraignment. so much time gets passed and time between arraignment and trial. ainsley: what happens to
i was shocked. today the rule of law in the united states of america died. brian: he didn t put his case on. instead of him appearing. why don t have you bob costello come in where he just eviscerated the story. ainsley: legal adviser to cohen. brian: so kind of interesting. the new york times said the first sign there would be an indictment was around 2:00. when three lead prosecutors walked into the courtroom where the grand jury was sitting and had a copy of the penal law. three hours later, they walked out. the county clerk s office through a back door and started the official process and next thing you know within two minutes of when they closed you saw the announcement. you saw alvin bragg go out the door. what is he actually charged with? at much as 34 counts of fawtion falsification business records, perhaps. it is centered around the stormy daniels case. but what about the karen macdougall factor. what did david pecker say as the last witness to go in there and
steve: it s out of their playbook. what did the russians say that your brother did? well, they re say that he committed espionage. a russian citizen gave him a usb key. as soon as he accepted it. the security service came through the door of his hotel room and he was arrested. steve: was that true? well, it s true that he received a usb key but nobody knows what was on it. it s the way they have set up people over the years. it s a regular. ainsley: being reported that evan wrote a negative story about russia and possibly putin didn t like that so they found a reason to put him behind bars. what s your reaction to see brittney griner, she was released on december 8th in a prisoner exchange she came back to america. we have your brother over there. we have this wall street journal reporter now over there. what s your reaction when you see some being brought back but not others? well, i think particularly when you look at the espionage cases mr. governor vits, and
between her legs and she thought she was being assaulted. and then when the daughter was brought up she said yes, my mom was shaken up and she was forced to get a massage for the second half of the day. she might have even been late for dinner that night. so no one even talks about how long people had to wait to eat dinner and you timed your lunch with your dinner when you are on vacation. ainsley: only one witness. and this guy took the stand and she said how could you have seen you think you saw him i hit him from behind. how could you have seen that when you are colorblind and it was 40 yards away? brian: your witness? ainsley: wasn t it 40 yards or 40 feet? brian: i think 40 yards. steve: ultimately he had asked for $3 million. the judge reduced that to possibly $300,000. she countersued for $1 and ultimately as we just heard the jury foreman. ainsley: he still has to pay her attorney fees. i m sure she got very expensive really great attorneys. brian: maybe attor
