You are live in the cnn newsroom. Im jim acosta in washington. Good evening.

If you go after me, im coming after you. Smith wants the judge to limit trump and his legal team from publicly discussing sensitive evidence in the election interference case. Today on cnn we heard from one trump lawyer who says he will fight that protective order.

we begin in the us where a congressional committee has released six years of tax returns for the former president donald trump. mr trump battled for years to keep the documents secret until the supreme court approved their disclosure last month. the returns show that in two years covered by the release, he and his wife paid just 15 hundred dollars in federal income taxes. the former president has released a video statement, condemning the release of the documents. although these tax returns contain relatively little information and not information that almost anybody would understand they are extremely complex, the radical democrats behaviour is a shame upon the us congress. joining me now is adam davidson, a contributing writer to the new yorker. he has long covered trump s finances for the magazine. thank you very much indeed for joining us. if i could start by picking up on the point made there by donald trump, a lot of people will neither be able to make head or tail of
state. whoever does win that race will take on john fetterman in november. he easily won the democratic senate primary last night, though may be the first candidate to do so from a hospital bed. he underwent surgery for defibrillator hours before polls close. this is after he suffered a stroke a few days ago. he seems to be recovering and in good spirits this morning. so many races, so many states, important results for both parties. another race we re following in north carolina, congressman madison cawthorn is on his way out. the trump favorite conceded late last night. cawthorn was once viewed as a rising star in the gop, however his political career tarnished by recent scandals from video, salacious video, claims that put him on the outs within his own party. we re following both parties in these states as only cnn can. let s begin on the ground in two states, let s go to the state where things haven t been called yet on senate side in pennsylvania. democratic side, j
