requires a response. i m going to throw it to joe in just a second. last time we talked about this you mentioned another client, not the republican operative but the trump organization, donald trump himself and sean hannity and then you talked about another payment. are there any updates to payments to other women that boost your case? we don t have an update per se but i don t want to suggest by that that we don t additional information but we don t have anything we re prepared to publicly talk about right now. are you focused on a $1.5 million payment? we re focused on one of the payment s we re focused on is this alleged payment on behalf of mr. brodie. and does that connect to donald trump at all? perhaps, but we re not prepared to make a statement along those lines. joe, jump in. jonathan lemire, i wanted to ask you a political question.
