jessica schneider on exactly what the former president s lawyers are asking for and perhaps significantly which justice they re asking. jessica, what more do we know about what the former president is seeking from the court? right now they ve filed an emergency request at the court, anderson, even though they ve waited two weeks after the 11th circuit ruled on this. now we re finding out that the justice department has one more week to file its response. trump s team here, they re asking for very limited relief. basically what they want is the special master to get access to these 100 classified documents that he s been blocked from reviewing ever since the 11th circuit ruled and crucially here, if the special master regained access, that would mean that trump s legal team would also get to see the classified documents. that s something they ve long been angling for. what trump s team is arguing, they say the 11th circuit didn t have the jurisdiction to act when it did. now
special master and that has turned out to back fire on him. when we were locked out it was something like a war zone. it s going to hit home. it s going to be emotional when they see their properties up close. everything that you see is being contested by the ukrainians. the russians have completely dropped any pretexts that this is going well. announcer: live from london, this is cnn newsroom with max foster. it is wednesday, october 5th, 9 a.m. here in london. 4 a.m. on the u.s. east coast. it s been a week since hurricane ian slammed into florida and u.s. president joe biden is expected to visit hard-hit fort myers in the coming hours. he ll meet with governor ron desantis, fema and officials to assess the damage there. meanwhile, florida residents are returning. it will be a difficult transition for those who call the island home. what they ll see is really an up close look at destruction that they ve seen from the video clips on the news and some other ph
defense ministry pointing to a map that acknowledges significant losses on the battlefield. this is the map that russia showed today of territory it claimed is under its control. in one day they show that russian forces have been pushed south. you can actually see it in the change in the shades. they re showing that themselves, and the russians are talking publicly about their significant losses. a war correspondent for russian state media today said that russia s special military operation is undergoing a, quote, operational crisis. and drenched in the blood of our soldiers. that s a direct quote talking about retreat, a brutal retreat and that it has been a disaster. these are graphic and brutally honest observations of the counteroffensive for the ukrainians that has been gaining steam. today, ukraine, once again, raising its flag over multiple liberated towns all in the kherson region. also posting this video of a modern russian tank abandoned. this is one of their more i
the 100 or so classified documents and not even going after this part of the case. this is strictly going at this issue that exceeded the jurisdiction. you can look at this one way the first sentence of his argument goes at the issue that he says this is an investigation by his political rival and success sore joe biden. thank you, evidan perez. what jumps out at you from trump s emergency legal request? two things. first of all, jake, the narrowness of the request by trump, all he s asking for is that the special master review the documents presumably so that his team can receive them, he can get early discovery in the case and also, i just have to say it s sort of move that on its face is a head scratcher to me. frankly, the request by the doj was very narrow. it was very well tailored and the court of appeals decision was well reasoned. so i don t know why this would ordinarily be a wise choice of resources by the trump team. kerry, in a separate case the justices ha
