To address the remaining six appropriation bills, that includes contentious issues like funding for the pentagon and the department of homeland security. Welcome, everyone. Let go now to the decision 2024 and the tale of two vastly different candidates and almost identical geographical locations. President joe biden and former President Donald Trump both campaigning in the Swing State Of Georgia today at the unofficial start of the general election season. Biden will speak in atlanta this evening. His campaign is also launching a new ad in georgia, a critical swing state. Arizona, michigan, north carolina, nevada, pennsylvania, and wisconsin. And in it, biden acknowledges his age as he targets young voters. More on that coming up for you. Last night in his first speech since the State Of The Union address, he told voters in pennsylvania about his a compliment on jobs. 15 million new jobs in three years. That is a record in american history. Unemployment at a 50 year low. 800,000 new Ma
His team expected to hear charges, enter a plea during the initial appearance. The former president is calling for the case to be moved out of washington. He claims it is impossible to get a fair trial in d. C. Fox Team Coverage with Alexis Mcadams on trumps legal strategy. First, go to Griff Jenkins outside the Federal District court In Washington. Griff, what are you expecting out of todays proceedings . Here we go, jillian, mike. We expect things to get more interesting here. We expect the former president to make his way to District Court here in d. C. Once he gets here at 4 00 p. M. To go inside for that, lets talk a little about whats going to happen. He is going to go before a Magistrate Judge, not the judge that will preside over his trial, a Magistrate Judge for the initial appearance and fox news confirms, being told by the court, this will be an arraignment. We expect the former president to plead not guilty to the four charges, but already as you mention in that intro, he i
trump s intent. the new york times reports that prosecutors have questioned multiple witnesses over the past few weeks, including jared kushner, and questioned them about whether trump had privately acknowledged in the days after the 2020 election that he had actually lost. the line of questioning suggests that prosecutors are trying to establish whether trump was acting with corrupt intent. remember, kushner also spoke to the january 6th committee last year. jared, are you aware of instances where pat cipollone threatened to resign? i kind of like i said, my interest at that time was on trying to get as many pardons done, and i know that, you know, he was always him and the team were always saying, oh, we re going to resign. we re not going to be here if this happens, as that happens. so i took it up to just be whining, to be honest with you. we also just learned moments ago special counsel jack smith requested a reply memo by trump and nauta to delay the documen
republican campaign at this point wants to be out on the campaign trail next year and not sitting in a federal courtroom, how do you expect the judge will handle that when it comes up ultimately? i think, mike, that you raise a very significant point in this case in particular because president trump has this problem with all these cases. you know, you could argue some of it is of his own making, but with respect to this case in washington, jack smith, the prosecutor, made a tactical decision to indict him in florida first and he not only indicted him in florida, he tried to push that case to trial to the point where judge cannon set that case for may for trial. i frankly don t see how they can get to trial in may because of the complexities of that case, but that s what the prosecutor did. and i think president trump has a very strong
the trial date, that jack smith is asking for in december, and if not that, something not too far after that. what do you think, joyce, is this something where we re going to see judge cannon set a date in december, or are we going to see more time frittered away as we speak toward the 2024 election? i think christy is dead on the money with her assessment here. the speedy trail act requires judge cannon to set a trial date. trump zed for no trial date. that s just not an option under the law. if she complies with that request, jack smith and the special counsel s office will be off to the 11th circuit with a motion, probably a mandamus petition asking her to set a date and asking she be removed from further participation in the case. the problem you re setting up is the middle ground. what if she doesn t go along with the december date that special counsel asks for and does something january, february? what if it s not until june? and this is where the tremendous
