Behavior and the stakes. It was a bracing message. He will be treated like any other defendant. Trump did not attend the hearing in washington today, and thats fine. You can have these kind of hearings among lawyers. His defense team entered this morning. We saw that, tracked that. Hearing about what, in other cases, might be a more routine matter. What are the rules of evidence before you go to trial . How can it be discussed . So this is basically the framework, ground rules, you may have heard the reference to a protective order. Now judge chutkan rejected Donald Trumps request to speak in broader general terms about some of that evidence. Hell be restricted from publicly discussing the sensitive materials. The ruling came out late today. The judge says if Defendant Trump receives sensitive materials has part of this case, meaning stuff he might not otherwise get but for being a criminal defendant, his lawyers may not allow Defendant Trump to write down any personally identifying in
So were going to do it the way we try to do it around here, which is with the facts and details first, and then well discuss them together. Todays proceeding began around 4 15 p. M. Eastern. Defendant trump was seated with his lawyers, just as he was during his last arraignment. You may recall. This is a sketch from that day in a Federal Court in florida. That was how he looked then. Todays arraignment adjourned so recently that we actually dont have those actual Court Sketches yet. We will get them and we will bring them to you on msnbc at whatever hour we get them. Lets put it like this when this year began, no former president had ever been indicted and arraigned. Tonight were reporting on Defendant Trumps third arraignment in four months. So he does know this process. Today he was digitally fingerprinted, submitted details like his birthday and Social Security number william a know that special counsel jack smith was in the courtroom because our reporters spotted him, seated roughl
There at the high court. For the next a0 minutes or so, the Bbc News Channel stayed on live pictures of the outside of the courtroom, awaiting what turned out to be a rather brief shot of the duke leaving the building Chris Collins echoed that who thought. We asked bbc news for their response to those points and they told us. Although there were many cameras outside the courtroom, there werent any inside, which meant reporters had to relay what was going on via live online updates or wait till they were outside the high court to summarise what had been said on television. The only visual material of what happened in court via drawings by the courtroom artist, although sky news filmed a ginger bearded actor voicing prince harrys words. Tom boadle tweeted. Well, lets discuss this issue of whether there should be more tv tv cameras allowed in british courts with the legal commentator joshua rosenberg, who, of course, spent 15 years as the bbc s legal correspondent. Thank you so much for c

jean carroll after trump lost to her in this previous case about defamation regarding sexual assault. now, donald trump s trip to court is a stark turn from his recent victory in new hampshire. that was just tuesday. this is not how any candidate in any party, in any point in history, it has ever wanted to follow up on a primary when. let alone try to get momentum while under oath. regarding such serious allegations of defamation. now, trump s time on the stand was deliberately brief. he answered a single question from his lawyer, the judge overseeing what would be allowed. the lawyer asked if trump stood by the past deposition that he gave, which denied the underlying sexual assault that is the issue in the defamation, and trump replied, simply, 100%, yes. the lawyer tried to then bulldoze on and get donald trump to say more about denying the actual allegations, the judge intervene and struck those answers from the record. and that, very briefly, shows how court is different
