something. there will be a hearing on tuesday and i do suspect at the very least the prosecution will get what they asked for, which is thousand dollars fines for each of these violations. the harder question is, what happens after that? is the judge going to say that next time it is up to 30 days of incarceration? i suspect the judge will do something like that because you cannot run a trial this way. one thing he did today which was interesting, he didn t impose any sanctions today for violating the gag order but at the end something interesting happened. the defense asked who were the three prosecution witnesses that are going to be called tomorrow on the first day of the trial. the prosecutors said, we are not going to tell you who they are because your client is going to tweet about them and attacked them. the judge agreed with them and said, we will not give you the witness names. i do think that is the start, the judge is starting to have a
going to be hot this week, some areas setting record in hottest temperatures for midwest and mississippi river valley. over to brian. brian: see you later, janice. this morning, live look in milwaukee, stage is set for first gop. eight candidates aiming for their big break-out moment. they take the stage tomorrow night 9 p.m. tammy bruce joins us now. harder question, who has to steal the spotlight? tammy: american people will see haves from outside the context of trump. rich and i wanted him now, now stand on your own two freaking feet, people. surprise, remember carley figerina, doing well in the
november election. can a trial be held before then in that time span? absolutely. will it? harder question. you have other matters already set for trial. as ken mentioned, you have the same defense counsel in these cases. they can t be in two places at once and we see now that the strategy of the trump team seems to be delayed. not a shocking strategy. so can it happen? yes. it can, katy. i believe it can in the eastern district of virginia, i believe it would, but this judge has to set her own timetable and she has to keep the parties sort of in line and on schedule. that s not an easy thing to do. and also be fair to them given the time constraints that are out there. chuck, thank you. always good to have you. my pleasure. coming up next, changing the rules. what ohio republicans are trying to do to the state s constitution ahead of a big
they control that land bridge. can you say who has the momentum on these front lines in the east right now? yeah, that s tough, wolf. that s a harder question. in the east around slovyansk, as ben just mentioned, that s going to be a slugfest for some time there has been active artillery shelling, barrages by the russian forces. that is her way of war. after that artillery shelling, they ve usually tried to put in fast-moving combined arms ground forces. the russians have not been able to do that. if you watch the film of their troops moving, it s very slow and tentative. that s likely because they fear the ukrainians technologically advanced weapons systems. but still, both sides are teetering back and forth, and we re likely going to see this for a very long fight. this is going to be tough. it s a lot like the western front of 1918 in world war i. a lot of artillery shelling. a lot of slow movements. some forward momentum and some
about a russian withdrawal. you can look at the map that we ve got here. you can see that they ve pulled out, they re going to refit and belarus and then they re going to refit over and belgorod, which is about 80 miles east of kharkiv, which is the second largest city in ukraine. but more importantly, it s really at the northern tip of the eastern donbas region where we expect the fighting to start at the helicopter pilot yourself, we saw what appeared to be a daring flight into belgorod to bomb the fuel depot . we know that javelins will be on the ground here in four to six days, but should we be giving more weapons to ukraine in this window of opportunity? well, that is certainly one of the options that we have and one of the challenges we ve seen is that there s a lot of bureaucratic red tape in getting those systems into the country in the first place and into the hands of those who would use it. and then the harder question also needs to be asked are we giving them the full sys
