I almost wanted to encourage him to take a few minutes out of 9 00 to tell the people. Preached the gospel. Its good stuff. Theres a lot in there. Its wild. It really is. Its true and sort of were programmatic policies and people sense of who actually gets them or who was on their side and how they interact. Is pretty interesting. Its like in hindsight obamas total acquiescence to the Label Obamacare seems quite wise as a political strategy. All right, my friend, have a good weekend. You are done now. Thanks to you athome for joining me tonight. Donald trump is facing 91 criminal counts in four different criminal cases. Right now prosecutors in all four of those cases are fighting to get to trial before election day. So far only one of those trials is on track to actually make it. Then handed it attorney alvin bragg is preparing to go to trial this month in the case over the hush money payments to adult film actress. While that case moves forward, the others not so much. The federal el
Of the cases that Defense Counsel had cited within their brief that had absolutely no application to the issue that were here before, your honor, today. The first mciver be state has nothing to do. Has nothing related to the disqualification of anyone. I think some of these are just relating to kind of aspiring for broad language about standards to prosecutors. So point taken there but if theyre more all right. Keep it on so as it relates to one of the cases that was referenced here earlier.

Among other things, they were there to discuss when trumps trial in that case would begin. The special counsels team requested that the trial begin july 8th, giving them sufficient time to complete the trial before the election. Trumps team begrudgingly suggested the trial could begin august 12th, which prosecutors were quick to pounce on, saying one thing the parties agree on is that this case could be tried this summer. Trumps lawyers we
