Trumps race for the republican nomination and his nearest rival ron desantis is a whopping 37 points behind. Also tonight, haiti, months of Gang Violence and kidnappings have terrorized and paralyzed the country. Now an american nurse and her child have disappeared. The latest on the search. Good evening.

Today marked the official start of the timed Window Fani Willis Set for announcing possible charges against him. Tomorrow the grand jury in washington meets and its possible there could be news on whether or not they will indict him on federal charges related to his attempt to overturn the election results. In florida, a bad day for Carlos De Oliveira, the maralago property manager who appeared in court for the First Time Since he was named a Coson Spear Investor
