the republicans to come to his defense and call for future pardons and destabilizing department of justice and the call of other republicans here, and we are through the rubicon, and what are we doing here is what i say to the party. this reads clear as day, and the photos are, there and the photos are there, and this is very similar to what many of the republicans were criticizing hillary clinton for, except it is 1,000 worse. i think it is just requires a moment to think about the gravity of this. it does seem like a lot of the language that we are hearing of the spokesperson from former president there, and some of the elected officials is pretty dangerous language that is clearly designed to just di side the country as much as possible all to the benefit of one guy, the former president. well, there is an overwhelming majority of voices out there at this point in time, and we will see how it plays out, but last night, chris christie was not here singing from that hymn
esposito came to my office. we started to work on the case. i didn t meet them at the airport. i have no idea how they arrived. one other question. trump is going to former president trump is going to be headlining a $100,000 per person fundraiser for giuliani to help with the aforementioned legal bills. part of the bond restrictions that were handed down today is that he condition not talk about the case with a co-defendant. trump, obviously, his co-defendant. can you assure the court their not going to be talking about that case? well, i haven t looked at his bond order. our bond order says don t discuss things wico-defendants except through counsel. that s not uncommon to say don t talk to defendants, except through counsel can you assure the court that they are not going to talk about it? i would assure the court we made this agreement and we will abide by the bond conditions. have you spoken to trump s attorneys? i have not. brian tevis, thank you for
around and try the others later, so it will have to be done more than once. does that complicate trump s case here? if he case goes to trial actually in october, what kind of impact does that have on mark meadows, donald trump, all the others here. it could complicate or the defense gets as opportunity to see how witnesses will testify. there s a transcript that makes the a second trial perhaps easier. you worked in the district attorney s office for more than ten years. when you ve seen the attacks from trump and others on not just the district attorney here, but other prosecutors here, a big part of his bond restrictions are not going after other witnesses. one big question i ve heard thrown around trump s orbit is what happens if he violates
sheriff s office? reporter: this is significant, anderson, because these are not the first threats we ve seen down here in fulton county as a result of this case. our colleague nick valencia has learned that employees in the fulton county sheriff s office have been facing threats to themselves and their homes. of course last week we reported on how there have also been threats on officials, including the district attorney, fani willis, and even the grand jurors who voted to indict trump. down here in fulton county, their names were published as part of the indictment. we know the fbi is working on some of those threats. but it also appears that today s bond restrictions are part of an attempt to tamp down some of these threats. there was also a new court filing from the special counsel, pushing back on the former president s request for a 2026 start date. jack smith has asked for a start date of january 2, 2024. what more are smith saying? reporter: clearly they re quite far apar
for money. mark meadows has left the former president in the dark about what his legal strategy is. and john eastman and his attorney have been trying to keep their distance as well. this should not be an issue, specifically when it comes to eastman. the bigger thing, i think, in terms of the former president s bond restrictions is that restriction on social media. and anything that can be perceived as a threat on social media. that and the bond agreement i think is going to be the biggest challenge for the former president and potentially for the judge overseeing this case. turning now to hawaii. take a look, some images just a short time ago of pride skpn the first lady hearing from survivors and witnessing devastation from the wildfires that killed at least 114 people, a number that is expected to rise. about 850 people still unaccounted for. it is the deadliest wildfire in more than a century. president biden said the whole country will be with hawaii during the recovery. we wi
