Former CIA Director John Brennan joins Jen Psaki to discuss how damaging Donald Trump's handling of classified documents was to our national security.

  "I can tell from the code words that are on there...the types of very sensitive collection systems that this information is derived from." John Brennan to Jen Psaki on what stuck out to him the most in the Trump indictment. ... .en Psaki "Is there anything about any of the timelines of these documents that gave you pause because you knew what the moment was?" .John Brennan : "I've been able to put some pieces together and I'm sure our adversaries and others have been able to put the pieces together."

Jen Psaki says, “No matter how hard they try to spin themselves as the party of family values…That’s hard to do with a straight face given that the defacto leader of their party has now been branded a sexual abuser.”

Carroll called the verdict a victory for her and other victims of abuse. “I filed this lawsuit against Donald Trump to clear my name and to get my life back,” she said in a statement. “Today, the world finally knows the truth. This victory is not just for me but for every woman who has suffered because she was not believed.” Carroll’s lead attorney, Roberta Kaplan also released a statement saying, “No one is above the law, not even a former President of the United States.” In videos posted to his social media platform Truth Social Tuesday evening, Trump said he plans to appeal the verdict, calling it a “disgrace” and “political witch hunt.” He also repeated his claim he did not know who Carroll was. Trump attorney Joe Tacopina outside the court Tuesday said that he had spoken to the former president and that he is “ready to proceed and go forward.” Enter your email to sign up for CNN's "Meanwhile in China" Newsletter. close dialog What’s happening in China and what do

Stormy Daniels says Former President Trump does not deserve incarceration

  Piers Morgan sat down with Stormy Daniels for an interview to discuss all things Trump and that interview airs tonight. In a preview clip released, Daniels is asked if she would get closure to see Trump jailed. During the stunning interview, Morgan asked Daniels if she was prepared to testify at a potential trial.  "It's daunting, but I look forward to it. You know what I mean? Because I have nothing to hide," she said. "I'm the only one that has been telling the truth. And, you know, it can't shame me anymore Daniels then said there is "absolutely" no doubt she would testify. "I think having them call me in and put me on the stand legitimizes my story and who I am. And if they don't, it almost feels like they're hiding me," Daniels said.  Despite being eager to take the stand, the adult film star doesn’t believe Trump deserves to land in jail – at least for the hush money case.  "I don't think that his crimes against me

ABC News BLURS Trump message during Mar-a-Lago speech last night

  Many networks carried Trump’s speech last night after his arraignment yesterday but only one blurred out part of his message. I checked several other networks and it appears ABC News was the only one to blur Trump’s message on his podium about texting him. ABC News cut away from the former president’s speech as he was delivering a favourite recent addition to his stump speech, claiming that Joe Biden would provoke an “all-out nuclear World War 3.” During the speech, Mr Trump sounded familiar notes, claiming he did nothing wrong. “The only crime that I have committed is to fearlessly defend our nation from those who seek to destroy it,” Mr Trump said, while claiming “our country is going to hell.” He also repeated his attacks on Juan Merchan, the judge presiding over his case, as well as the official’s family. “I have a Trump-hating judge, with a Trump-hating wife and family, whose daughter worked for Kamala Harris and now receives money from the Biden-Harr,” Mr Trump continued.

  Former President Trump is set to give remarks tonight at Mar-a-Lago at 8:15PM 4/4/2023 in NYC. Much like 2016, Trump has captured media attention over this phony indictment and many will be broadcasting his speech live. But of course you can watch it here below: Former  President Trump  slammed Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg Tuesday from Mar-a-Lago, just hours after pleading not guilty to falsifying business records related to alleged hush-money payments made ahead of the 2016 presidential campaign, telling supporters he "never thought anything like this could happen in America."  Trump was arraigned Tuesday in New York City, after being indicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges.  The judge did not impose a gag order, so Trump was free to make remarks about the case Tuesday night when he returned to Mar-a-Lago. "I never thought anything like this could happen in America. I never thought

Former President Donald Trump’s indictment could make turnout in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election ‘unstable’

The winner in Tuesday's election between Democratic-backed Janet Protasiewicz and Republican-backed Dan Kelly will determine majority control of the court, with issues like abortion access, redistricting and more than a decade of Republican priorities, hanging in the balance. The court has been under conservative control for 15 years, helping to enshrine priorities of the GOP-controlled Legislature and former Gov. Scott Walker. Liberals have cast the race as a defining moment for their side to exert power and potentially overturn the state's 1849 abortion ban law and redraw maps created by Republicans that have led to them increasing their control of the Legislature. The winner will also set majority control of the court ahead of the 2024 presidential election. The current court came one vote short of overturning President Joe Biden's win in Wisconsin in 2020. As of Monday, Protasiewicz and her backers have spent about $23.3 million compared with about $17.6 million for Ke
