military? one single senator is so determined to make a point about abortion, he s blocking the pentagon s most senior promotions. that republican is here with me in just moments. also tonight, i have some new reporting inside donald trump s thinking regarding the special counsel s january 6th probe. i m kaitlan collins and this is the source. tonight, the window until the first votes are cast in 2024 narrowing and trump headed to trial, is there still time for a viable alternative to emerge? ron desantis is still number two in the gop race. he s trailing trump by more than 30 points in most polls. so what is the florida governor s strategy? what is he doing to turn things around? blaming the media. the media does not want me to be the nominee. i think that s very, very clear. if you look at the people like the corporate media, who are they going after? pretty clear that the media does not want me to be the candidate. i think that they ve tried to tik create a narrative
There are a few concerns and yesterday a lot of tv crews were down here and there were a few people protesting and trying to be heard on tv and there is a pretty heavy police presence already. the appearance is several hours away and it has been totally barricaded off and he is expected to enter the court room from behind where we are now so we are not expecting to see him walk past at any point, although there are about a dozen chemicals following him in from the airport on hisjourney to following him in from the airport on his journey to court a dozen camera crews. his journey to court a dozen camera crew- his journey to court a dozen camera crews. ~ . ., camera crews. what about the timing of what happens camera crews. what about the timing of what happens next? camera crews. what about the timing of what happens next? we camera crews. what about the timing of what happens next? we expect - camera crews. what about the timing of what happens next? we expect his appeara
