Deadline in the 2020 election interference case. Hes got until 5 00 p. M. This afternoon to respond to special counsel jack smiths request for a protective order. Smith is trying to block trump from disclosing evidence and making Public Comments that could intimidate witnesses or undermine the case. Smith asked the judge to step in after trump issued a vague threat on social media on friday. He wrote in all caps, quote f you go after me, im coming after you. This morning, were also keeping a close watch on Fulton County, georgia, where trump is facing another potential indictment for trying to overturn the election. The streets around the courthouse are being shut down as the grand jury considers charges. Trumps lawyer went on a media blitz and appeared on all five networks sunday morning. He floated a new defense for trump, alleged will pressuring mike pence and georgia officials to overturn the election results. Youre saying that asking is action. No, asking is aspirational. Asking i
you re a candidate now, ron. thanks to what is sure to be remembered as the most awkward campaign launch in american history. plus, that s not fair. trump s lawyers channel their inner 8-year-old in a whining complaint to the u.s. attorney general with due apologies to 8-year-olds. later, one year after 19 students and two teachers were gunned down in uvalde, texas, an activist group floats a radical proposal for reining in america s deadly gun culture. and we begin tonight with a question. would you ever hire someone who participated in a deadly insurrection to overtake the u.s. capitol or fellow rioters threatened to kill the house speaker and hang the vice president? would you hire a woman who was once arrested and charged with stealing the campaign signs of a political rival who she had run against for public office? personally i wouldn t and i imagine most of you wouldn t either. but florida governor ron desantis did. this is sandra atkinson. her investigation by
That they went on throughout 2016, werent a lot of them but there were conversations. Cant be sure of the exact dates but the president can remember having conversations with him about it. Throughout 2016 . Yeah, probably up to could be up to as far as october, november. Our answer is cover until election so any time during that period they could have talked about it. Well the finaling of the negotiations is essential in the Ongoing Investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller. And yesterday giuliani acknowledged that trump told mueller about the talks with russia. Take a look. Said the president is not sure when talks ended. Im guessing you had to answer this question in written form by mr. Mueller. That is where we ended it. That is such a key line. In other words the president s response to Robert Mueller in written form, that is the first indication we got of any of the written responses, including that he was negotiating for getting that hotel built in moscow right up until the
Governor of calikcalifornia gav newsom. this is a silly campaign tactic. he is trying to get some attention. gavin newsom is a very distinguished person a governor also a political heckler in this particular environment. he should be fighting the guy on the stage, not fighting somebody in the stands. they have been going back and forth over parameters and rules. it s silly. daniel, jamal tell us how you really feel. thank you all. one of lake tahoe s biggest thieves in custody. and it s not a human. it s a bear. blamed for more than 20 home break-ins. where she and her cubs are now heading. plus, a rare walrus calf rescued, 24/7 cuddle care. that story ahead.
Election. what disoes this get him? he is far behind the former president in state and national polls. what does he earn now with this acknowledgment? i mean, likely it keeps him in the hunt for some of these trump voters. notice how he responded to that question. he did not give a yes or no answer. he gave a very sort of opaque hand on the bible on the 20th. that s who the president is. so, if you clip that, it s not him saying trump lost the election, which could enrage both the former president himself and his voters. it really shows in the end that desantis bet is that he can win over the most hard core trump voters, which pollsters have told me in the past are just unlikely to move from trump under any circumstances. he eventually got to, of course, the former president lost. we ll see where he goes after that. daniel, jamal real quick before we go. i just want to know why ron desantis is going to debate the
