Election. >> all right, so is he going to be using that same vein, that same argument in trying to say to the judge in this case that, no, donald trump does not need a protective order? >> well, he did hint at that in the full ginsberg round robin, katy. the news media should be concerned about the protective order, even routine information that isnt sensitive, he may have a point there, but as i said, protective orders are standard in criminal cases, and ill say one other thing, which is that i...

Trump is going to fight everything tooth and nail. it is routine because what they want to turn over are all of the witness statements, so in order to be disclosed into the world, you could imagine that people who have testified against donald trump could find themselves being harassed or threatened by members of the public. donald trump is going to push hard on everything. and even if he doesnt get his way, the eventual delay in his trial, seems to be his game, fight everything, delay everythin...

Reason to ask for her dismissal. let us dive in. joining me now is nbc news justice and intelligence correspondent ken dilanian, its good to see you. get me up to speed on this protective order. why do they argue that what hes posting is dangerous, and not free speech? >> great to see you, katy. look, a protective order is standard in a criminal case. the prosecution is going to turn over tens of thousands of documents, some of which are subject to grand jury secrecy, some have private informati...

Would only do so if she shows a blatant disregard for the law. this revelation, well have to see how this plays out, and i think it would take an awful lot before the government would seek recusal. sometimes you can file an appeal of an adverse order, and in the course of that, the court of appeals will on its own reassign the case to a different judge or it gives the government an opening to ask for it, in a way that may not be postured to do it just yet. >> 5:00 p.m. deadline to file the respo...

Trumps social media, they say, pointing to a post that says if you go after me, im coming after you. that was friday night in the filing. since then, donald trump has repeatedly attacked jack smith, said nancy pelosi is going to hell and claimed mike pence is lying in his sworn testimony, that hes gone to the dark side. trumps lawyers did the full ginsberg, or his lawyer, singular on sunday, arguing the january 6th charges are bunk, that donald trump was exercising his free speech. will he use t...

Looking at this case. how long does a case tipically take when -- typically take when youre talking about each side getting a fair shake in terms of depositions, in terms of the discovery process, insuring that trumps lawyers get access to all that they need to get if they need to get classified and see it in a scif, whatever? how long would that take, and do you believe that could happen before the next presidential election? >> no. i think once again basic fairness would suggest that all of th...

Dovetails with the argument from the trump campaign, right now, in court today, that this discovery process is going to be a beast. theyre already setting the stage, trying to push this off as long as possible. the reality is, of course this going to be norm information. but a lot of the stuff has already been litigated in court. theres already been rulings on privilege, both executive and attorney-client. and i just wonder, i mean, whether you are optimistic about trumps defense trying to claim...

He was being arraigned. for a while it wasnt clear he was actually going to be charged in this case. it is so significant to even be at this point because for so long it was like, whoa -- exactly. it was not even clear he was the target much less wed be at a point. >> the other thing that makes this different is the mar-a-lago indictment which is full of information. certainly there are bread crumbs. >> but theres a lot not even here. >> for sure. but a lot of it we do know because of the house ...

Long it was like, well, its not going to be giuliani or -- >> this -- is >> exactly! it was not even clear that he was the target, much less than we would be at a point -- >> the other thing i think makes this difference is, the mar-a-lago indictment was full of new information. and certainly there are bright comes of new information in this january -- >> the rockets thought even here. >> for sure. but a lot of it we know because of the house investigation into january 6th. i wonder how that rea...
