Eastern, 8 00 a. M. Pacific. Im Jose Diazbalart. We begin with Breaking News in former president Donald Trumps legal troubles. Just in last hour, the new York Court of appeals rejected trumps efforts to overturn the Gag Order in his hushmoney criminal case. Joining us now, msnbc legal correspondent lisa ruben. Good morning. What more do we know about the Courts Decision . Reporter you know, sometimes when a court acts we see an entire opinion. Other times when they reject an application we can see as little ads one word, the word rejected or denied. This is more in that latter category. All we know that the court has said is that former President Trumps application for them to hear an appeal on the Gag Order before his sentencing was rejected because in the courts view there was no substantial constitutional question directly involved. And i want to pause there on the word directly. That may be the Court Signaling that they understand that, for example, the entire case does present a v
Inner circle. The memo which was obtained by the New York Times and has not been verified by nbc news, was allegedly sent in early December 2020 by trump lawyer kenneth chesebro, who is one of the coconspirators identified but not charged in the Justice Departments latest indictment, of the former president.

Those efforts by donald trump and his lawyers to subvert democracy has, in a small part, led the american varshini to create a task force for American Democ
Fascist dictatorship, and so bill barr, after, ive got to say, humiliating himself for several years, bill barr decides, this is where i get off. This is enough. This is my line. I believe in an imperial presidency, but i dont believe in a fascist presidency. Thats what donald trump was asking him to do. Asking him to steal an election. Asking him to arrest his political opponents. Asking him to do the sort of things, again, that fascist dictators do. He wouldnt do it. Now, trump has turned on him. As far as fani willis goes and jack smith and everything else, again, we can point you back to it and play it for you again, what we were saying in 2019. If donald trump lost in 2020, he would run again, and hed run again simply to avoid all the crimes he was committing. Im not good at math, but that was four years ago. Four years ago, we were saying he will run again so he can try to avoid jail. Going to jail. Here we are. I must say, a lot of people were saying that, so its hard to believe
