$75 million. what you see on the left there is what letitia james says is all things considered the rough actual truth, a value of $75 billion. now, you might notice when you look at this bar chart here that it seems really kind of low, and that s because of what you re about to see. to leave room for the trump claims you have to build a giant chart where the trump organization made claims legally binding that this was worth $739 million. that s not a bit above or double. it is, as you see, about nine times more than, according to the case, what the a.g. says it s worth. so it is false as best as anyone can tell. it certainly never fetched $739 million or anything close to that in a sale. what you re seeing on your screen in simple form, which i m leading the newscast with, because it s important, is a piece of evidence for dismantling the trump organization. if this evidence holds and a judge signs off on it, you can see trump and his family banned from running any corporati

people vote but also the pr message. they re afraid to use certain words because they don t want people to, for lack of a better word, freak out at the changes they re trying to implement. that s exactly it. for the last 2 1/2 years since the 2020 election, we have really, really seen from former president trump and his allies an attack on voting machines. we saw the former president claiming votes are stolen. we saw fake audits across the country that all target these election machines. so while these new certification guidelines are good and election officials believe they re a big step forward, they have major concerns about how they talk about it, that the word choices they use really matter because there s a certain part of the american population that s already predisposed to not trust this equipment. now that they re changing the rules and the way they re certified, they worry those same people could freak out even more. just break down for us what these new guidelines for c
it s my i love to cover both sides. i love to be able to say, their response is this. we still don t have much of a detailed response because he pled the fifth. how do you contrast laura s pr message in the bubble to donald trump s inability or unwillingness on the advice of counsel to even speak to what he was up to? well, i think what you say under oath matters a lot, and there are in the complaint, it states certain questions to which trump, you know, claimed the fifth. and these were pretty direct questions. for example, did you direct weisselberg to make sure that the value of your properties increased every year? i plead the fifth. i mean, that s an easy no if you didn t do it, right? and that goes to the heart of his own participation and knowledge of the scheme. i think it s also just the sheer
