Mara gay. White house editor for politico, sam stein. You saw him on way too early. And the founder of the conservative website, the bulwark, charlie sykes. It is a great group. Thank you for being with us this morning. Well begin the week with the latest on those new charges against former President Donald Trump in the classified documents case. Today, a newly introduced third defendant, the Property Manager at former president s florida home, is scheduled to be arraigned in miami Federal Court. Carlos de oliveira was named in a Superseding Indictment last week and charged in four counts, including conspiracy to obstruct justice and making false statements to the fbi. According to prosecutors, trump directed both de oliveira and his valet, walt nauta, to destroy Security Camera footage last year from the Room Monitoring where boxes of classified documents were being stored at maralago. That alleged order came just days after the fbi issued a subpoena for that same footage. Its unclear
hiss rival office holders killed. the lead starts right now. one city, four homes, each one shot at. police say who the man was who orchestrated the attacks, they say he wanted to cause injury or death and the apparent targets were his democratic rivals. plus, trading in on the biden family name, house republicans ready to investigate presidential son hunter and presidential brothers jimmy and frank biden for trying to use their access to the now president to try to make money. where does the investigatory trail begin? well, cnn is investigating. and, how did two passenger planes end up on a collision course? could this very serious question impact your next flight? welcome to the lead. i m jake tapper. we start with our politics lead and the white house counsel s office desperately trying to explain why the biden white house has repeatedly given the american people incomplete, late information about president biden and his staff s handling of classified documents. both
reactions to the appeal. and later, a break from the noise to celebrate a new presentation of under the sea! those poor unfortunate souls decide to dislike the new mermaid in town. this is american voices! friends, we have southern mid weeks until this fall s midterm elections. in this final stretch, republican politicians are going to extremes. rolling out new factions to distract voters and proposing new solutions to have real issues impacting the lives of americans. thousands of asylum seekers find themselves caught in the middle of the gop is cruel political theater. today, new york city welcomed a new group of migrants from el paso texas. from april, gregor abbott has sent migrants from texas, to new york, washington d.c., and chicago. he s not the only republican using migrants as political pawns. there are governors from arizona, and of , have sent migrants to sanctuary cities in an attempt to own the libs. florida governor ron desantis ramped up the inhumane treatme
Question. i think both things can be true at the same time. ron desantis seemed to be under the illusion that he could run a kind of i am donald trump without the baggage, and he s gone for the social issues. but as i think is becoming increasingly apparent, this is not an election about issues. it s not an it s not one where you ll have a referendum on wokism. it is about donald trump. it is about donald trump s personality. at the same time, you are seeing this hard realignment on the right that was a convention of young conservatives recently in washington, d.c. the reports out of there suggested they re not interested in traditional conservative values or even fiscal issues. they like the social red meat issues. so i think the hangover of this is going to take is going to linger for a very, very long time. i think decades from now, we ll look back on this as very much a realignment, even after donald trump leaves the stage.
Row. i don t think we should do it again. governor ron desantis, you ve called him an important voice, one of the important voices for the party. do you think he would be good at what you re talking about in terms of reaching out to people in the middle? he hasn t done it so far. he s done a good job of getting on fox news and he s capturing a lot of attention, but he hasn t done it the way charlie baker and phil scott and i have. we re a consistently the most highest job approval in the country and i think desantis is down around 30th place among governors. is that because he s too focused on the base, too focused on red meat issues. he s focused on the base and he s doing pretty well with the base. he has to figure out a way if he wants a political future beyond florida to appeal to a broader audience. you talked to my colleague dana bash, she asked you if you were thinking about running for president in 2024, you said you still had to do your day job until january 18th. to
