at this hour, president zelenskyy is in washington pushing for critical aid for his country s existential fight against russia. his visit capped off by a meeting at the white house with president biden. in a few minutes the two leaders will hold a press conference. we ll bring you that live when it happens. we begin with a stunning revelation by the special counsel jack smith in the federal election interference trial. for the first time, the special counsel s office says it has data from donald trump s cellphone, and they plan to show how trump used his phone in the days and weeks after the election, including on january 6th. in a court filing last night previewing expert testimony, the prosecutors plan to bring to the case, jack smith says he plans to call to the stand an expert who extracted and reviewed data from trump s phone and the phone of another individual who s currently unidentified. special counsel said the expert will, quote, testify that he or she analyzed da
out. but it remains a question with other high profile cases. is there a possibility that a leak could happen again. one of the question marks of the court is that it talks about employees of the court. there are clerks, there are staff members. roughly 100 people were not talking about the justices themselves, who were most informed about the content of the draft. itten doesn t indicate if they were directly involved in this investigation over or not. that s a question we don t have an answer to. but it leaves really a sense of how did this happen and how is there not a way to know more? they do not believe there was an electronic breach. to hacking involved no one came forward and confessed. so that leaves them saying that while they had evidence in terms of interviews and even a fingerprint that they looked at and checking the hardware of
baldwin, he went on camera in an interview with abc and said that he did not pull the trigger and now prosecutors are saying they have him on video with his hand on the trigger, we haven t seen that, but prosecutors are saying, they have an fbi report to back up that the gun couldn t fire unless he had actually pulled the trigger. if you can they can show the jury he lied, that s a real problem for him. he s going to say whether he pulled it or not, he was told there were no live rounds on set and he had no reason to believe that there were live rounds on set. that s going to be a key point there. yes. although i think it s going to be easy to demonstrate that there was no gun that fires without a trigger being pulled. but the whole idea of there not being clarity on why live rounds were on set was a problem for the prosecution. they did not want to answer it yesterday. but i think the jury is going to want to know, how did live rounds get on set when there were not supposed to
and try to cap this program and figure a way out of this. that s actually what i wanted to ask you about next. the trump administration is trying to figure out how to deal with north korea. sitting down and having a discussion about this and capping this, as you said. in your expertise having watched many leaders try this, what do you think is the best approach? well, i think the first thing that should happen is the united states should call for talks about talks. informal talks, itten doesn t have to be sitting down for formal negotiations to figure out where both sides are and what they are willing to talk about. i think that needs to be done without preconditions. one of the problems in the past is that u.s. leaders have said we want to sit down and talk about denuclear larization. the response to that has been well maybe that s the outcome,
