Pete williams. Thank you very much. Let me bring in National Political reporter for the Washington Post and msnbc political analyst. Two msnbc contributors. Charlie savage. Let me go over briefly this reminder about Paul Manafort and why the Special Counsel is interested in him. Starts with donald trump. He hired Paul Manafort to run his president ial campaign in march 2016. Prior to his work on the Trump Campaign, manafort did political work overseas. Some for the prorussian
highlights which as you indicated, rick gates, all eyes will be on him. He was the right hand man to manafort. What hell have to do in order to fulfill his cooperation agreement, for the government
david? david: trevor ault leading us off tonight. trevor, thank you. the system that brought these tornados has now moved out of the northeast. but in the west at this hour they are bracing for what s to come, that rare hurricane, hurricane hilary headed for california and the southwest. california, including los angeles, under the first ever tropical storm watch. take a look tonight hilary heading north, reaching california this weekend on sunday. it impact expected to last for days. crews in long beach already building sand berms. this will bring major flooding and more. let s get to lee goldberg of wabc, tracking it all. historic in nature, strength, and size. reporter: oh, a wingspan of about a thousand miles, david. a very potent storm, and still cat-4, so even if it weakens, it could be a mineral hurricane or tropical landfall. the satellite still impressive. very well defined eye. there are 40 foot waves toward the center. cabo, six to nine-foot waves.
course, this morning, which we didn t receive. we received this instead. how does this impact, or does it impact at all, the timeline of the indictment on the effort to overturn the election and on trump s involvement in that? i don t think it impacts the indictment that may be filed. i think it s a real certainty that it is coming. my guess is it s probably not coming until after those remaining witnesses testifying or scheduled for august. so i m a little less inclined to think it s coming in the next couple of days. but i do think there is significance to the timing here. so if the trial date in the mar-a-lago case gets pushed down to june or july, i think this one probably trails behind. every time something like this happens we can see the january six trial getting pushed into late summer, early fall of 2024. at some point the arguments that were too close to election actually has some merit. i think the prosecutors need to keep the heat on and get these
trial date past the may day that aileen cannon just set. is that something that we could hear more about soon? could that be the and ask that the trump team is going to a lie aiming cameron within the next few days? i think the wait for the new defendant first, which will likely take place soon, i would imagine, and then shortly after that date it would seem appropriate for the parties to ask to reset dates in this case, in light of additional discovery, and that defendants ability to get up to speed. i would say after the arraignment, i think we should expect, in a short period of time, a request for additional time. we were waiting for news on a different indictment, of course, this morning, which we didn t receive. we received this instead. how does this impact, or does it impact at all, the timeline of the indictment on the effort to overturn the election and on trump s involvement in that?
comment. these accounts come after a texas dps trooper blew the w whistle last week saying texas had treated migrants inhumanely. texas dps now saying the trooper misunderstood orders. a member from one of our leadership or supervisor tells a trooper to push back migrants, what that means is to verbally tell them go to a port of entry. reporter: the billions of dollars texas is spending to stop illegal immigration, clearly not stopping the migration flow. i have seen people die from heatstroke on the property. reporter: urbina worries that while the u.s. doj and texas duke it out in court. it s very frustrating. reporter: migrants and property owners are caught in the middle. and rosa flores joins us from eagle pass, texas, so she doesn t have access to her property. does it impact just her or is there wider effect? there is a wider effect, but let me set the scene for you,
