Mara gay. White house editor for politico, sam stein. You saw him on way too early. And the founder of the conservative website, the bulwark, charlie sykes. It is a great group. Thank you for being with us this morning. Well begin the week with the latest on those new charges against former President Donald Trump in the classified documents case. Today, a newly introduced third defendant, the Property Manager at former president s florida home, is scheduled to be arraigned in miami Federal Court. Carlos de oliveira was named in a Superseding Indictment last week and charged in four counts, including conspiracy to obstruct justice and making false statements to the fbi. According to prosecutors, trump directed both de oliveira and his valet, walt nauta, to destroy Security Camera footage last year from the Room Monitoring where boxes of classified documents were being stored at maralago. That alleged order came just days after the fbi issued a subpoena for that same footage. Its unclear
yeah. erik, mara gay from the new york times . we know little about what happened in this case, but what do you think of the border with north korea? the cold war ended years ago, but help us contextualize what may have happened here and what the incentives are with the governments involved here. first of all, north korea is interesting because this is one of the last countries that prevents the exit of its citizens. when we think about defection, most of the people are fleeing north korea. but there are a few cases of people fleeing the other way. the dmz is really the cease-fire zone of the armistice of the korean war 70 years ago. it is highly militarized. there have been a few cases of people fleeing into north korea. several u.s. soldiers, a handful, really, since 1953 who have fled for a variety of reasons. some were disenchanted with
And ukraine, both sides agreeing to create humanitarian corridors to evacuate citizens the crush to board trains still happening, and train windows are telling the story of this war. pain, loss, and so many families saying good-bye this kharkiv resident said she was lucky to get a seat on a train out. but now that she s stopped moving, the reality is setting in. i adore my city for me, it s best city so beautiful a lot of parks now everything is broke. it is crazy. everything is broke. everything tom, obviously it is urgent to do something to get these folks out. what do we know about how soon those humanitarian corridors will be set up and running? reporter: lester, they are still working out the details. they envision some type of cease-fire zone where they can evacuate civilians and create a pathway to get medicine and food into the devastated
Whatever comes out of moscow simply does not translate. the message doesn t get down to the lowest level unit and hence you have mistakes. to answer your question very directly, we have not thought that every time there s a cease fire announced we re going to rush there with personnel that can get three or four hundred people out thinking it would not be easy in every case, every time we thought that was going to happen, it never has. ultimately we re planning around where can we go, where are those pockets for safe evacuation every day, 24 hours a day, regardless of what is put out for a safe cease fire zone, if you will. what about the u.s. and nato ,dale? are they doing enough to help people in ukraine get out of ukraine? i know we talk about the no fly zone and you know, not getting into a shooting war with russia. but what about the humanitarian effort? is nato is the united states, the eu doing enough to help those people get to where they need to go? yeah, i think specifical
Part of syria and saves lives. if we can have a conversation with the russians about other cease fires that might be useful. bill: interesting answers there. are the russians resisting this overture? in terms of an additional cease-fire zone? bill: the topics to sit down and discuss. is the expression out of moscow that we ll talk to you but only about a, c and d and not b? i think sometimes they tend to i don t want to get ahead of the president and i don t want to get ahead of secretary of state tillerson and what may or may not happen. but russia certainly has an interest in sitting down and talking with us. we have an interest in sitting down and talking with them but it has to be results oriented. it s one of the things that secretary of state tillerson talks a lot about. it can t be talking for the sake of talking. there has to be something that comes of it. if we can get more assurances on north korea that would be worthwhile. if we can get assurances on
