That is right, you cannot ignore those discussions. Thank you to you for putting them front and center, and to david for the good work he does it have a great evening and great weekend, guys. Thank you at home for joining us this evening. One of the most important criminal cases against donald trump has been on lifesupport for weeks now but as of today, it appears that the case will live. The former president will likely have to face trial. For the past two months, we have watched as the Georgia Election interference case against donald trump and 14 Co Defendants devolved into a high stakes sideshow. Several of the defendants in this case accused fani willis of having a relationship with the Special Prosecutor on her team, nathan wade. A relationship that created the Conflict Of Interest. They argued that because of that relationship, fani willis needed to be thrown off the case, a move that would effectively kill any chance of this case ever getting to trial. Last month, d. A. Willis
Just ruled that Fulton County District Attorney fani willis can stay in charge of the sweeping election interexperience case into donald trump and more than a dozen others if and only if top prosecutor nathan wade, the man she had a relationship with, goes. Covering all of the angles of this major decision with msnbcs katie phang, and lisa rubin, danny cevallos, and dave aaronberg, State Attorney from palm beach county, florida, thank you all for joining us, katy, walk us through this 20plus page decision and the choice willis has to make now. So, ana, msnbc first to report this 2346 page ruling that came from judge scott mcafee. The process has taken a few months, and so to that extent, if there was a win, the win would be for the defense for the delay. However, ultimately judge mcafee saying no actual Conflict Of Interest was proven by the defense. It was their burden to have to show it through competent evidence during the course of the hearing. The judge reporting there was an appe
Opinion and my lawyers opinion. Donald trump who still wants us to believe he can legally stash americas most sensitive secrets in a maralago bathroom was back in court today, requesting that the whole Criminal Case be dismissed. Also tonight, Vice President Kamala Harris makes an historic visit to an Abortion Clinic as republicans continue to push for a national ban. And i call this one. The big push to force a Chinese Company to divest tiktok would allow the far right maga crowd to swoop in and gobble it up, which now seems very possible. But we begin tonight with the lone exception to Donald Trumps petulant attacks against the judges and prosecutors in the numerous criminal and civil trials against him. That would be one judge aileen cannon, a trump appointee, where remind you, who is overseeing the federal Criminal Case involving trumps mishandling of classified documents. Todays hearing in a florida courtroom on two of trumps motions to try to throw out the case is the latest exam
Good to be with you. Im katy tur. Fani willis can stay on the trump interference case but if she does Special Prosecutor Nationen Wade has to go. Were waiting on her decision. While this is a big win for the Fulton County d. A. s office, the judges decision was scarring. Andrew weissmann has more on what stood out to him and what he says continues to jeopardize that case. It is not just georgia. There was another seemingly small but actually pretty significant ruling in florida by judge cannon. She rejected one of trumps motions to dismiss the classified documents case against him, saying his argument of constitutional lateness is premature. Weissmann argues it might have been better for Special Counsel jack smith if she threw out the case entirely. What about the hush money case in manhattan . The d. A. Braggs office says it is turning over even more documents to trumps legal team now giving them 100,000 pages and counting of new evidence. What that means for the trial, which was supp
Tsirkin on the capitol hill, and our brian chungs here with me in new york, and with us, lindsey gorman, Senior Fellow for emerging technologies, alliance for securing democracy, and also Senior Adviser in the biden white house. Julie, this could be a rare bipartisan vote, why the urgency now and what does this bill do . Reporter yeah, its rare indeed, ana, every time we talk about, we talk about how things arent going well here on capitol hill. But here you have overwhelming support from republicans and democrats to pass forward this crackdown of tiktok essentially, this bill, as you laid out, would force the Parent Company of tiktok to divest to an american company, not only tiktok, this bill would force any app, any Company Owned by a foreign adversary to do the same or else tiktok is banned from the app store, from any platform here in the u. S. If that doesnt happen within six months here. Not everybody is on board, right, you did have a small percentage of young House Democrats h
