The defense, in one way or another in this federal case, and the other today, saying not so fast. Today, the special counsel, asked for a january 2nd trial date in the election subversion case, which had said partake as little as four weeks. The former president , who is expected to challenge that, took the first step tonight in his social network. Quoting now, but leaving out some of the personal tax on smith and president biden. Quote, only an Out Of Touch Lunatic would ask for such a date. One day, into the new year, and maximum election interference with iowa. Now whatever you make of that, in particular the, the proposed date is yet another entry on what is already a very crowded calendar. Take a look. Surrounding that date are the trump organizations Civil Fraud Trial this october, the e. Jean carroll defamation trial january 15th. That is the same day of the iowa caucuses. Super tuesday, march 5th, is just ten days before march 15th, manhattan hush money trial. In the maralago documents trial is scheduled for may 20th. Today, in that case, Trump Codefendants Walt Nada and Carlos De Oliveira were in court. But first, cnns paula reid on the special counsels need, the need for speed. Paula, what exactly is the government requesting, and how likely is the judge to grant the date . Well they have this need for speed, they say, to serve what they described as to serve the public interest, it having a speedy resolution to this case. What they are asking for the judge to start this trial immediately, and after the new year. They say the last 4 to 6 weeks. And these are of course the for the first two months of a president ial election year. And right at the start of when primary voting would start for republicans. This would mean that Candidate Trump will be spending most of his weekdays in a courtroom. So, its unclear if a judge is going to go for this schedule. The special counsel also revealed a new detail today. And that is the fact that at least some of the evidence in this case is classified. And john, that could potentially complicated some of the Pre Trial Hearings here. But, the special counsel insists that even with that classified material, they will still be ready to go, in early january. So has the former president and his team, have they responded yet . Well as you noted in the intro, the former president has responded. But officially, his legal team has another week to weigh in with legal arguments, about when they think this case should go. Now, the florida prosecution is any indication, we expect they will likely try to advocate for this trial to be pushed until after the 2024 election. Now, after they submit their suggestions to the judge, this will all be hashed out at a hearing in late august. On august 28th, the judge has said. And then, she will hear these arguments, and decide on a trial date. And there is a hearing in this case tomorrow before a judge what is expected to happen there . Thats right john. The 28 hearing was supposed to be a big deal, because that was supposed to be the first hearing before judge tanya chutkan, the women who oversee this case to what is expected to be a trial. For months, she said it sent schedule a hearing tomorrow, because the two sides cannot agree on the rules for handling sensitive evidence in this case. So, i will be in the courtroom. We expect both sides will go before this judge. Again, its their first appearance before her in this case. And, they will make arguments for how they think they should handle sensitive evidence. The special counsel is advocating for broad protections. Citing concerns that the former president may learn something, evidence thats been gathered by prosecutors, and cher, potentially impacting the investigation. But Defense Attorneys, they want something more limited. Theyre arguing for something thats more similar to other january 6th cases. And john, it will ultimately be up to the judge, her first test in this case. You will be in the courtroom, we look forward to nearly realtime updates. Paula reid, thank you very much. As we said a moment ago, the former president s codefendants in the documents case, and they were in court today. But once again, procedural matters appeared to be slowing things down. Randi kaye is outside the courthouse, and joins us now. So, what did happen in court today, randy . Well john, donald trump waved his appearance to peer in court today, but he did enter a not guilty plea on the new charges in the superseding indictment through his attorney. His aide, while not a, also was here in court, and did enter a not guilty plea. We were expecting the Property Manager from maralago, Carlos De Oliveira to be in court, which he was, and to end to a plea. You may recall last week, he was in miami with a wash and you see bass lawyer, which so he could enter a flea, because he needs a floor lawyer to enter a plea here in the state of florida. He had a florida lawyer in the court room with him, but apparently, had finished up all the paperwork, had officially signed on. So once again, carlos, yellow there is really arraignment words postpone, to not appear back in court here on tuesday, august 15th. Where he possibly could wave his appearance. But we did learn earlier this evening, that his florida lawyer did now officially sign on, hours after that schedule arraignment. And he will now officially represent him here in the state, so we do expect that he will enter the plea. But john, just in terms of the charges that they are facing now. We are looking at false statements, conspiracy to obstruct justice. And concealing documents. And weve seen this play out before. Its just another, day and another delay. As youll recall, walt nauta, the aid, his original arraignment, he first can find a florida lawyer. Apparently, thats very difficult here. And then he had issues with his flight from new york. He was delayed, he was stuck on a plane. So, weve seen this movie before, john. Does it look like these delays, and the ones that may be coming next time there is a hearing, could impact the actual start of the trial . Its possible. I mean, jack smith said that the superseding indictment, and the new charges in them shouldnt impact the timeline for the trial. But it certainly looks possible, given what were seeing. And now, we are seeing a new court filing from walt knott and his team, requesting that he be able to view classified documents in the maralago documents case. They say that he needs to do that in order to properly prepare for his defense. But prosecutors say, that he just doesnt have the Security Clearance for Something Like that. Also, they say that he was not part of the willful retention of the documents. He is being charged with obstruction, so he should not be able to see those documents, john. And what is, next in the process for these two men . Well, come august, the prosecutors now have a deadline of monday, august 14th, in order to respond to this latest filing from walt nauta and his objection. And then, judge aileen cannon, who has also set a hearing date for august 25th to deal with those matters if needed, she also wants to make sure, we are told, that all of the pleas in all of the arraignments, and all of those smaller matters are dealt with, before the august 25th hearing, if that does indeed take place. And also john, i should point out that because of this, this could potentially delay Donald Trumps trial, which is scheduled for may. As weve said, in this classified documents case, if all of these hearings continue, and all of these delays. And funds continue, it could very well get pushed from may, possibly even past the president ial election, john. And that maybe, part of the point. John, randi kaye, thank you very much. With us now, former trump attorney tim parlatore, who currently represents another 2020 figure, bernie kerik. Also with a, cnn senior legal analyst elie honig, who has prosecutors and cnn political analyst and New York Times senior Political Correspondent and trump biographer maggie haberman. Elie, i want to start with you. The proposed hot trial date of january 2nd. Real estate, or is this like an opening bid . Its like an opening bid. This was a remarkably sort of wrote Wishful Thinking on the prosecutions part. I mean, if they start this case in january, that would mean, according to prosecutors request, Jury Selection would start in mid december. That means Donald Trumps team would have four and a half months or so to get ready for trial. That is close to unheard of in the federal system. This is a broad conspiracy. This charge is donald trump, but at least six other coconspirators involved. It covers seven states, over 2 to 3 months. And just to understand why its such a short timeframe. Think of what Donald Trumps legal team has to do in four and a half months to make this happen. They have to review all of the discovery. Theres going to be Hundreds Of Thousands of pages of discovery. Theres going to be hours and hours of surveillance video. They are going to have to prepare their own defense. They get to do their own investigations. So, trump is entitled to some due process here. I think for two and a half months is really pushing it. But as you say john, i do think thats an open again. But i really quickly, whats the implication . This was an explicit, but the implication in this filing was look, its important to do this quickly, because there is an important day looming. Yeah, they are studiouslys avoiding say, because the election. But they are saying the first, where we have to do this quickly. Its inappropriate, i think, for prosecutors to even acknowledge the election, never mind you argue for a court, you should schedule with the election of my. Thats mixing politics right into the case. Okay, it wasnt explicit, i should say that, but it did seem to hangover. The flip side of that mr. , parlatore, is donald trump complaining that january 2nd, a trial date would be very close to the iowa caucuses. Why should that matter, why should a Nominating Process Matter To Judicial Proceedings . Well you know, you need to have a client who is available, who is able to assist in his own defense. So certainly, looking at other Scheduling Concerns like that is something that should be taken into consideration. But, at the same time, i think that the strongest arguments that the defense should raise, are exactly what ali just said. You know, this is way too fast, and really, one thing i noticed in their filings as they avoided also saying how much discovery there is. Because i think that if they put that volume in there, you see that its probably even more discovery than they have in florida. I mean, this is going to have everything from the january 6th committee, all of those, the documents. Each witness that has been subpoenaed has submitted thousands of pages of documents. Were talking probably over 1 million pages of documents that they are expecting to get rid of that quickly. So, i think that for what is going to most impacted the judge, leading with, this is something that we could not possibly be ready to go in that period of time. And if you force us to pick a jury on that date, we will not be ready. And this is a gift wrapped appeal, thats a stronger argument then to just rely upon the iowa caucus. State yeah, easier to put a finer point on that. Look most people charged with crimes, they have jobs. Right now, Donald Trumps job is running for president why, should that inherently delay trial . Correct . Well, it is something that we bring up oftentimes is, what the Different Things are with the defendants schedule, with the defense at other trials, vacations. He pushed trials out a month, even because somebody has a vacation schedule. Ive seen trials pushed out because the Defense Attorney has Maternity Leave schedule, things like that. So, it is relevant to consider. Because ultimately, the speedy trial is the right of the defendant. And so, as long as he is willing to push it out,. Maggie, i know better, weve no better weve noticed on, to ask you whats don trump thinking, whats innocent. So i ask you what hes doing, about what hes doing. Because we are seeing him lash out, on his social media network, in campaign speeches. He has talked about the special counsel, he is talking about the judge, he is talking about the trial date. He is talking about mike pence. How much of this is a strategy, and what does he think hes getting out of . This i dont think strategy is ever a great thing to how donald trump comports self to social, media or in a lot of his public remarks. But, if there is a strategy, it is essentially to tarnish all the prosecutors who were involved, which is what weve seen him do over and over. Again he is a man of very few moves, and he uses them repeatedly. He is very very angry about these indictments, thats clear. The main thing that hes doing, jonathan just get stressed enough is, putting aside all the arguments against prosecutors. He is airing an app thats attacking prosecutors as well. But, he is trying to reinforce for everybody, i am the front runner for the republican nominee, i am the front runner on the front runner, dont even bother trying to compete against me. Now, theres no question in polls, he is far and away running ahead of everybody else. But, he is doing what he often does, which is try to make it such inevitability, that nobody should even try. And that is something of a shield, against what you are seeing in the courts. I mean, his appeal is to the public. We have seen him do this as a populist over and over and over again. And his voters become support, and his shield. Is this something that his lawyers have an opinion . On his lawyers would rather that he not speak as much as he does. John one of his lawyers, who is handling the january 6th case, he was brought on in the last couple of weeks, months i should say. But john he gave a podcast, where he was very clear that he does not agree with some of what the former president is saying on social media. Among them, the former president was insisting, were gonna File A Motion asking for a recusal of judge chutkan. And laurel made clear, no we, actually have made a decision on that at all. He also repeatedly talked about how you can control some clients. This is not something that any of them want. And so, they all work around it, and weve seen that over and over. But trump is going to find, out or not, whether this is a problem from. Thats what we have to th judges. Yome, and, wemr. Parlato think about what magg said there, and how the lawyer s is very complica in a campaign, and a whole bunch of people that want to put out public statements. It is something that is preferable, for me, to have hen they are runn fr president , it gets complicated. Complicated.

False positive and negative results may occur. Ask your provider for cologuard. I did it my way Breaking News<\/a> tonight on the wildfires in. Maui island authorities have just raised the death toll to 50. Three and while touring the devastating city of Hawaii Governor<\/a> josh green told wolf blitzer, he expects it to exceed the 61 People Killed<\/a> in the states deadliest national disaster. That was a tsunami in 1960. Our bill we are, just arrived in maui, it is among the first reporters to make it into lahaina. He is trying to set up a live shot. Communications are really tough, but we have bill on the phone right now, while we have you bill, walk us through what you are seeing. Well john, i came here bracing for the worst. I had seen those Helicopter Aerials<\/a> the last couple of days, and heard some tales of folks who have gotten out of here. But, its worse than i had imagined. It looks like a bomb went off in lahaina town. All of the iconic buildings are either flattened or just scorched skeletons of their former selves mick fleetwood, the drummer of fleetwood mack, his place is gone, the library, the school, everywhere its a one 80 pan of anybody whos been here to this taurus knows, its one of the most charming, remote places in the world. And just a gorgeous setting. But im hearing from people that the plane the flames came so fast, entire structures went up in a matter of minutes. And, captains who were in the harbor say oh, it looks like that house, survived there might be a little bit of question and will be gone in five minutes. But, right now im walking over towards the. It sort of the Signature Heart And Soul<\/a> of this town of, 150 years old. Its scorched, everywhere. Theres still leaves on it, so if this thing survives, it would be such a sort of boost, amid so much utter destruction. It reminds me of paradise california, john, the deadliest wildfire, and similar circumstances, in which the blaze came so fast, and keyboard trapped in a mountain town, with only a few ways out. The same here, they got trapped between this mountain of a fire, and the pacific ocean, while winds were hitting 80 miles an hour. So, people were just trying to get to the harbor, to get on the boat, to try to get away. Its a hopeless situation. We spoke to the coast guard today, who told us that 100 ports of people jumping into the water, because the water was the only place that could go for safety. Bill, the scale i think is hard for some of us to perceive. So as you look around, and you do your one 80 or three 60s here. How far does this go . How much of this part of the island has been burned . So, this is a town of roughly 9000 people. When the tourists are here. Its right up, and lines along the coast. So its contained, there are houses up on the hillside that i can see, that might have been escaped. And we came in from the south, where some homes have survived, that anything in the town center here, is just completely devastated. I mean just, you can see, this reminds me of paradise. You walk by a car, and there are these aluminum sculptures of the melted rims of cars. The fire was so heart, interned everything all the way to the ground. Here. Oh my goodness, im just make into the front seat now. And, there are signs of life, theres a few cleanup clues, a few Search And Rescue<\/a> folks walking through. But, just lifeless, smoky and soojee, devastation, where lahaina town used to be. You said you see a few people there, picking up. Can you get a sense of the recovery efforts, if any, that are happening . Not really. I mean, there are helicopters flying. I know the National Guard<\/a> has efforts here. But, not really, its pretty lifeless, as of right now. But, its too early to tell. I just met a gentleman here in 35 year resident, who just set, i became homeless on tuesday night. His house burned, he took shelter in sort of an alcove, along here. And, he has been living there ever since. And to sort of, you can see, hes going through the five stages of wrestling with this. Its unthinkable. And these are folks who are very used to hurricane warnings, tsunami warnings, on the big island when the volcanoes are going. No one could ever have imagined that one of the deadliest wildfires would happen in the middle of the South Pacific<\/a> like. This bill we are, were gonna give you a chance, you and your team, to try to get your video signal up. Let us know, if we can connect. Its important to have you there, we appreciate the work you are doing. Hopefully we will talk to you again very soon. Okay. All right, cnns Veronica Miracle<\/a> is also on the island, and joins us now. And from where you are veronica, what is the latest as far as people being able to get back to lahaina . Well john, we are standing on the road, the one road in and out of luck at the haina. And it remains closed. People can come out, they just cannot go back in. And earlier today, there was a line of cars for miles. But the police have now asked people not to wait here, not to stay, and they actually brought in a tow truck, threatening people that they will tow them if they continue to remain on the side of the highway. So all of those people have scattered down the road, but they are still waiting, hoping that the moment this road opens up, they can go in and see their house, their community, or whats left of it. We heard from bill, just the absolute devastation, as well as the governor of hawaii today, saying that he estimates about 80 of lahaina has been decimated. John. All right, Veronica Miracle<\/a> again, watching people get out. People cant get in, keep us posted veronica. Thank you. And just to put a number on the enormous physical damage these fires have caused, in addition to the horrifying loss of life. Hawaiis governor does say as many as 1700 buildings have been destroyed. Including this shop that tiffany when owns in lahaina. Tiffany, your store, the whalers locker, was on front street in lahaina. And the video we took is just horrifying. What did you find, when you got back to the story yesterday by boat . Nothing, just total destruction. It really looked like a war zone. It looked like a war zone. Nothing . Remaining nothing remaining. Everything is burned to the ground. The business is, thats a shot of it right there. Theres cars burned up on the roadway, just shells of buildings remaining. Car frames, and you know, i was speaking about it earlier with somebody, when you watch the news, you see short clips of destruction, and they always focus in on that one clip thats really bad. But, there arent any good clips in lahaina right now, everything is that path. Its not just what we see on the news right now. Can you describe for our audience, the historical significance of front street and lahaina, to hawaii, and why its important to rebuild . Yeah, absolutely. Behind a has such a, such an amazing history, all the way back through the kingdom through the capital of through elite, is being a big whaling port. A lot of ships came here for short leave, not for whaling, but they always knew they could get their crew back because no one could go anywhere, so we had 700 Whaling Ships<\/a> come through on our busiest year, during that time. Since then, its just become an amazing place, and then National Historic<\/a> district, a registered historic district. So, there have been fires on front street before, a long time ago, and its been rebuilt. This is so devastating, but i do think that lahaina, and all of hawaii has a really special place and everybodys hearts. The people ive spoken with from lahaina the last 24 hours. First of all, they are overwhelmed with the scope of the destruction. Were reinventing our network. With smarter, more efficient routes. So you can deliver more value to your customers. Fast.

Just one aleve. 12 hours of uninterrupted pain relief. Aleve. Who do you take it for . So a day after Florida Governor<\/a> ron desantis fired his second democratic, and democratically elected prosecutor, the struggling president ial candidate use that act as an Applause Line<\/a> during a stump speech in iowa. We had a prosecutor in orlando, she wouldnt prosecute cases. Shes putting people out back on the street, and this one guy shot two police officers, because he should have been in jail. And hes out of there, so i removed her from her post. Im not just gonna sit there and take that. [applause] desantis fired State Attorney<\/a> wednesday, saying in an executive order, the orlando area prosecute did not pursue mandatory sentences for gun crimes and drug trafficking. He also said she was quote, derelict, in Prosecuting Serious Crimes<\/a> by juvenile offenders. In his order, he said that she, quote, neglect knew of duty and competence. Now, floridas constitution allows governors to remove elected officials for a number of reasons. But no previous Ford Executive<\/a> has interpreted that our nearly as broadly. Last year, desantis removed another Democratic State<\/a> attorney who had promised to not prosecute those who seek or perform abortions, as well as those who provide gender affirming treatments. A clear challenge to desantis, in laws that he has backed. Now, monique joins me tonight to respond to the governors accusations. Miss thanks so much for being with us tonight. Just to be clear, you won, what light 66 of the vote in 2020 . So, whats your reaction to all this . Yes, thats correct. I won by an overwhelming margin, and my reaction is that we are losing our democracy right but i wrote, vote by vote. And, no one is coming to save us. In his announcement yesterday, Governor Desantis<\/a> accused you of being lax on crime, and the climbing to prosecute certain charges. And he cited three cases, two of which involved suspects with prior records who went on to commit violent crimes. Do you stand by all of your past prosecutions from your office . I absolutely do. The governor and local Law Enforcement<\/a> have been really good about pushing false narratives about my role in the system. But its really important, to be clear, the criminal legal system is a collaborative system, it doesnt only rest on the shoulders of the State Attorney<\/a>. There is a judiciary, there is Law Enforcement<\/a>, there is a defense bar, and these are the components of the criminal legal system. Any decisions that have been made by attorneys in my office, have been ratified by the judiciary. However, no one is talking about decisions made by the judiciary. Furthermore, crime is down in central florida. So obviously, there havent been decisions that i have made, that have impacted an increase in crime in any way. The Florida State<\/a> constitution does allow a governor in that state to remove an elected official for, quote, malfeasance, miss fee since, neglect of duty, habitual drunk in this, incompetence, or permanent ability to perform official duties. This has been used previously for people who were ill, who were hurt who were addicted, who were arrested and convicted. Thats what this has been for before. This governor is weaponizing the constitution, in a way that it has never before been used. And it certainly wasnt intended for the governor to use this overreach, to subvert the will of the voters. So why is he doing it . You know, he did it once last year as well . Well, he has done it before. You know, with two prosecutors now, but hes done it with the school board officials. Hes down with other elected officials. And the common theme here, is that these elected officials are in democratic counties. The common theme here is that he is a weak authoritarian, and that he is using his power to retaliate against areas in the state that did not support him in the election. We have seen it with what he is doing with disney, and were seeing it with what where he goes and chooses to suspend or, remove, a duly elected official. And this is the worst attack on democracy, that this country has seen, and something has to be done to stop. Do you think he would be doing, if you are not having some troubles on the Campaign Trail<\/a> for president . Well, there is no question about it. This has been used as an outlet for his failing president ial campaign. This is something to get him back into the headlines, and give him fodder for maybe taking over some of trumps voters in the face of his indictment. However, its not working. The more outrageous he becomes, the lower he falls in the president ial polls. And its really pretty sad and pathetic. What is next for you . Do you think theres any possibility that the state senate reinstates you . So, my legal team is currently reviewing my legal options, and they will make a determination, and advise me on what our next steps are in that regard. But i have filed for reelection, and i plan to continue to run, and really when my seat, by the will of the voters, the way democracy works in this country. And, be the duly elected State Attorney<\/a> once again. Monika morale, we appreciate your time tonight, thank you so much for being with. Us thank you so much, and for anyone who wants to support me, you can find out more at monique for State Attorney<\/a>. Com. Thank you for having me. And just ahead, the one pledged trump cant break, because he now says he wont sign. Were talking with the loyalty fled pledge all of the candidates are being asked to sign, saying they would support any eventual nominee. Former republican South Carolina<\/a> governor mark sanford joins us, to discuss the latest drama over the former president and the upcoming republican president ial debate, thats next. Ever since i retired, ive had trouble falling asleep and staying asleep you know, insomnia. Which was making my days feel like an uphill battle. That is, until i discovered something different, quviviq a oncenightly fda approved medication for adults with insomnia. Not getting enough sleep was leaving me tired. Oh come on but quviviq helped me get more sleep. Quviviq works differently than medication you may have taken in the past. Its thought to target one of the biological causes of insomnia overactive wake signals. And when taken every night, studies showed that sleep continued to improve over time. Do not take quviviq if you have narcolepsy. Dont drink alcohol while taking quviviq or drive or operate heavy machinery until you feel fully alert. Quviviq may cause temporary inability to move or talk or hallucinations while falling asleep or waking up. Quviviq may cause sleepiness during the day. Quviviq may lead to doing activities while not fully awake that you dont remember the next day, like walking, driving and making or eating food. Worsening depression, including suicidal thoughts, may occur. Most common side effects are headaches and sleepiness. Its quviviq. Ask your doctor if its right for you. My dad was a hard worker. He used to do side jobs installing windows, charging Something Like<\/a> A Hundred Bucks<\/a> a window when other guys were charging four to fivehundred bucks. He just didnt wanna do that.

A stunning new report from propublica reveals new details in a lavish lifestyle of Supreme Court<\/a> Justice Clarence<\/a> thomas over the last three decades, all bankrolled by wealthy friends in more extensive than previously known. Most of it was never disclosed by justice thomas. Details from tom foreman. The most complete accounting yet of the high life of Supreme Court<\/a> Justice Clarence<\/a> thomas showing much, much more than previously known. More private jets, more fancy vacations, more sporting events. All gifts from Mega Rich Businessmen<\/a> and documented through public and private records, plus interviews by propublica. Justice thomas has been living a life of extreme luxury for 30 years under at least four different wealthy benefactors. Earlier reports have unveiled lavish gifts for thomas, including gift for his mother, in this nineday in indonesia vacation, from harlan crow. I come from regular stock. He also wrote a film about thomass humble taste. I prefer the rv parks. The list of benefactor now includes three more names according to propublica. David sokol, wade is inga, and tony de valle. The four moguls collectively treated thomas to 38 destination vacations, including a previously unreported voyage on a yacht around the bahamas. 26 private jet flights, plus an additional eight by helicopter. A dozen vip passes to professional and College Sporting<\/a> events, two stays at luxury reports and one standing invitation to an uberexclusive golf club. The dollar value, likely in the millions. Little of which appeared in required financial disclosures, according to propublica. Thomas has previously said that he did not feel the need to disclose some gifts, and that worries jeremy fogel, a former judge. I simply couldnt have done this. Even if the people involved did not have interest before the court, it is the idea that you are receiving gifts of this magnitude. Associate justices make about 285,000 a year. In 2001, when they made about 100,000 less, thomas spoke up. The job isnt worth doing, for what they pay. Its not worth doing for the grief. It is worth doing for the principal yeah. Now he bristles at questions about his principles. A calls crow near merely a friend, cross as they never talk about his work, and the new report found that none of these wealthy pals seemed to have cases before the court. Still, between these new benefactors, just like harlan crow came into his life after he was appointed to the Supreme Court<\/a>, that is why it is so problematic from an ethics standpoint. There is no evidence that these rich friends broke any rules or laws with these extravagant gifts. Nor is there any proof that technically, Clarence Thomas<\/a> did anything wrong by accepting. Some defenders are calling this a smear job. Nonetheless, early revelations spurred an outcry for more strict transparent rules about what Supreme Court<\/a> justices can except, and this will only increase that drumbeat. John . Tom foreman, thank you very much. Next, the encouraging step made by iran today to lead to freedom for five americans. Were any of them prosecuted . Or any of them potential . Where any of them held with no response being able to get out . The answer is no. You should be prosecuted for your thoughts. The difference here is, so when hillary comes, instead it Nothing Happened<\/a>. When they said it in georgias election, Nothing Happened<\/a> either. Alec gore and Hillary Clinton<\/a> both conceded there. Why do you think that Kevin Mccarthy<\/a> is talking like this . He wants to stay relevant and politics. That is the theater of politics. You saw the quote, elevated, or supposed elevated emotion that he just showed. Pure theater. It is an absurd argument. At the end of the day, to your point, they both conceded those elections. To compare that somehow with folks storming the capital, breaking into a building where i worked for 12 years of my life, its an absurd comparison. It shows the danger of donald trump in my mind, because what it says is, somebody is highly elected as Kevin Mccarthy<\/a> will twist himself in knots to stay relevant with the trump base. To me, that is frightening for the way that it undermines the very tenants of open and free elections. Good to see you in person, thank you for coming in tonight. Yes, sir.
