the senior leader on the international stage at this point. merkel is second to him. he s been doing this for almost 20 years at the highest levels. he s got a ton of experience. he s very good at working with people. that s his profession as a professional intelligence officer. he will bring all that to the table. if you look at the north korea issue, just as an example. this is a case where president trump has put it out there. he said north korea will not get an icbm capable that can hit the united states. the u.n. security council has been unable to stop north korea from doing that. putin is not throwing trump a bone. he is not supporting the u.n. security council resolution. he s not producing a resolution. i think that s going be the rule rather than the exception. i don t think putin will be bringing a will t ining a lot e

further clarification of their inquiry pretty much on that level of request. there is a more recent case, hazuri vs. state where the request was for a generalized read back. the supreme court of florida held the court should have asked whicportions of the testimony the jury wanted read back. mcgirth vs. state which is a 48 southern 3rd, 2010 case, i believe, is probably the most scriptive, a florida supreme court case as well and there is a section in that that discusses the trial court in that case. the jury asked whether it could have a discussion with the court regarding t ining the jury inst and the court said it would be willing to address any specific question the jury might have but could not engage in a general discussion. i think obviously it is within the court s discretion to do that but i think it should be at this point at least the extent of any communication would be
