We begin with this latenight court filing from Special Counsel jack smith. He is now asking a federal judge to quickly set Disclosure Rules in the January 6th Case against former president donald trump. In the filing smith cited this social media post from trump earlier in the day that reads, if you go af
ballistic missile, most short range but one was an intermediate range ballistic missile that overflew japan. the u.s. will not be deterred in its exercises, the firing and testing of long-range missiles as long as trilaterals with the u.s. and japan that was conducted yesterday and will continue today. the u.s. will not be deterred from the region even as the u.s. warns north korea may be getting ready for another nuclear test. it s possible they re ready to go since may. if kim jong un carried out the test, it would be the seventh. has there been any escalation from russia that would have prompted him to raise that specter? reporter: this is a question we constantly ask at the pentagon. has the u.s. administration seen any indication that russia is prepared to use a nuclear weapon and has there been any reason for the u.s. to change the nuclear posture? in both cases there the answer remains no. but what s concerning is the rhetoric from the kremlin, from medvedev and pu
dividing line. when police officers don t show up to work, they get fired. that s how it should be for senators, too. as chief, i showed up every day and rereduced violent crime by 40%. marco rubio is one of the worst at showing up. and when he does, he hurts florida. instead of voting to condemn radicals who want to abolish police, demings refused. that s not just wrong. it s dangerous. maybe she used to be a cop, but in washington val demings is just another radical rubber stamp. new and important reporting on the justice department s case against donald trump. cnn is now learning this: federal investigators had already served a grand jury subpoena back in june at mar-a-lago. at that meeting the fbi took away sensitive national security documents. so then why the unprecedented search warrant this week? well, cnn is told the fbi developed evidence in part through at least one witness that there were still classified documents stashed at the wall pam palm beach reso
the u.s. economy added 187,000 jobs in july. another sign of the red hot jobs market continues to cool just a bit. the numbers suggest the economy may finally be hitting the sweet spot the fed has been seeking, so called goldilocks principle. get it, you know, the poor ridge was not too hot or too cold. it was too hot for her. i m confused. matt has the story about the numbers and what they say about the state of the u.s. economy. victor and amara, this looks like another goldilocks jobs report. too hot would have been too much. too cold would have revived the recession. this report looks just about right. added 187,000 jobs in july, a
