the public, the public, had an interest in a prompt resolution of this case. she said, by the way, dana, that she had actually talked to a judge in new york, the judge about to hear the criminal case in new york dealing with hush money payments, a criminal trial, one of four that former president is facing, because she knew it overlapped with his plans for his trial, but in the end, she chose march 4th as the date for this trial to get started here in washington. dana? so interesting. evan, thank you so much for that reporting. let us know if you hear anything else coming out of the building behind you. here with me to share their reporting and insight, carrie cordero, shan wu and political director david chalian. where do we start? i guess the first question i have, shan, is how set in stone is this? i think it s pretty set in
