interview since having a stroke. an update on his health, and how his campaign against trump backed doctor oz is going. but we start this evening s broadcast with breaking news in the investigation at mar-a-lago. the next phase of the battle between the justice department and all trump will take place in a florida courtroom tomorrow. both soils will appear before a trump appointed judge, alien cannon. she will be the one to decide whether to grant the former president s plea for a special master to go through those documents that were seized in his florida home. just a few hours ago, his legal team filed its response to the department of justices objections to having a third party review those documents, citing the need for a quote, independent attorney client privilege assessments and executive privilege determinations. in a court filing, revealed at this very hour last night, the justice department said a special master was not needed and revealed a whole lot of damning new
