Filing, citing this social media post from trump that reads, if you go after me, im coming after you. Trumps campaign defended the post as the definition of political speech. And said it had nothing to do with the case. Now smith wants the judge to ban trumps defense team from sharing sensitive evidence with the former president. He argues trump may publicly disclose that information, as hes done in the past. And yesterday, the former president also entered a not guilty plea to three new charges. Those are in the classified documents case. The filings mark the second time in 24 hours that the former president entered a not guilty plea. The former president s extensive legal troubles dont appear to be slowing his campaign. Last night in alabama, he called the cases election interference. Every one of these many fake charges filed against me by the corrupt biden d. O. J. , could have been filed two and a half years ago, they didnt want to do it two and a half years ago, they wanted to wait, and they did wait, they waited right until the middle of an election, and they waited until i became the dominant force in the poll. They want to interfere in my campaign, they want to interfere in the elections, they commonly use tactic in third world countries. We have more now from columbia, South Carolina and now the former president s legal trouble, it is not hurting him on the campaign trail, still in the national polls, and in the state polls, he is the faraway frontrunner for the nomination. That is right. Good morning, amara and victor. Im outside the venue where donald trump is slated to speak tonight ahead of a crowd of republicans. And similarly, to the speech in alabama last night, he will be speaking to a very respected crowd. And i think youre going to hear donald trump similar to what he did last night, air a list of grievances and continue to frame the legal troubles that he is facing as election interference, and also that theyre not just going after donald trump, but theyre trying to go after the conservatives at large. Lets listen to some of what he said last night. They want to silence me, because i will never let them silence you. In the end, theyre not after me. Theyre after you. And i just happen to be standing in their way. And i will never leave. I will never let them do that. Now, victor and amara, donald trump also during those remarks said that if he were elected president in 2024, he would appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate the biden family and continue the work that congress is doing through their investigations, looking at the president as well as other members of his family. But i do think if you look at what you are saying, victor, which is that donald trump is still keeping on with the very Aggressive Campaign schedule and also that this has been so far, it hasnt affected him that much politically in his race, you will see him point to that tonight. I mean he is going to argue that theyre going after him because he is up so high in the polls, they do recognize that he is still the republican frontrunner, despite all of the legal troubles that he is facing, and thats part of why he is still talking about these charges so much. I know through my conversations with Donald Trumps advisers, that they do see the political advantages to talking about his past indictments and the one that was just filed on tuesday night. They argue that his base is rallying around him. But i do think it is also important to point out that thats what his republican primary voters are seeing, theyre rallying around him, but in a general election, this very much could end up having a much bigger impact on his campaign. Already, thank you very much. Joining me michael moore, former u. S. Attorney and partner of moore hall in atlanta. Good to see you. Good to see you. Lets start with the Friday Night Filing by the Special Counsel jack smith. The point of it is he is trying to prevent trump from sharing any evidence in public, on social media. Do you think the judge will grant it . Well, i think its a pretty weak motion at this point. I mean basically, you just have a tweet out there that could have easily have been directed as well to the political opponents as well as to anybody else in this case, it seems to me that in fact maybe not the best grounds to move forward and a little bit credible, if you think about it, in this type of indictment and there type of case and the numbers of documents and information at stake, that theyre suggesting the defendant not be allowed to actually have copies of some of that information to look at. As he prepares his defense for a case. So im not sure that the message that went out alone is enough to go to that type. There is concern that mr. Trump has done this in other cases, talked about witnesses or perhaps intimidated them allegedly, how you could prevent them from happening . Intimidation of a witness is a different matter. Thats something that can be addressed, the court should address it and the prosecutor should address, it im just thinking that it probably got fired a little bit quick based on this one message alone and sort of say we think he may do it because maybe he did something in a case or maybe he will give some document that he gave in another case, even though he hasnt been convicted in the documents case, that that could cause a problem. So you know, you can only cry wolf so many times, and if judges get tired of it, and so this may not have been the strongest one to move on. This is a really crowded legal calendar for trump, i mean hes facing six trials right now, three that are criminal and three that are civil. So you have in march, this Hush Money Case that he is facing at the state level, and then in may, it was when the federal documents case is set to begin, and the Special Counsel, the prosecution wants this trial, this election subversion trial, to begin as quickly as possible, but im sure the judge, is the judge taking into account his legal calendar, and where could she potentially place this trial to begin . The judge will have to do that as a matter of course because you cant have a defendant bouncing from courtroom to courtroom to try a case, they have a right to prepare a case and get their things in order and have their lawyers get things in order as they move from one to the next. The problem with the Special Counsel, this case they brought, all of this information they basically had on january 7th, after the january 6th incident, weave a he already seen congress, one of the most inefficient bodies of the nation and they were able to have a committee and have a presentation on it, and almost a mini trial and to now come forward, were right here on the cusp of the primary season and i know we want to bring our case two and a half years later and bring it forward, and the judge, squeeze it in somewhere because we want a speedy trial. I think jack smith has done a good job, he has been quick since he has been appointed, the problem is, the case is not jack smith versus donald trump, the case is the United States of america and this information has been available to the Justice Department all along. So i just have a hard time imagining the courts forcing a defendant to come forward like that, just because of the government saying we would like to have a quick trial. I dont think the documents case goes in may. I think that is another temporary date that has been set. We havent even gotten into the litany of motions that are going to be filed and the appeals that will go up. This is something that we really are just beginning to see. But the judge has it on the calendar. But that is subject to change. There is a chance that the federal documents case and this election subversion case could go into or past the election . I think its highly likely. I would be surprised to see the cases tried that quickly because i do think you will have a lot of intermediate appeals issues and those things. You will have questions coming up about a change in venue and you will have questions coming up about Security Clearances to look at documents, all of those things, are going to be an issue, going forward. So lets talk about how difficult or easy this case will be for the prosecution. So there are four Felony Charges that the former president is facing, which includes Conspiracy To Defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an attempt to on truct an official proceeding, and conspiracy of rights. You have issues with the fourth charge. I do think that the fourth charge is going to be difficult. But they basically charge the civil rights crime, in this indictment, and in this count, this statute was used, really what i call the kkk statute, and it was made to prevent people from intimidating folks who have had constitutional rights. So it really was meant to punish people who burned crosses in front of churches, and who burned crosses in front of integrated apartment complexes. Thats the case with an identifiable set of victims. Here in this count, because the government has incorporated the entire indictment in into this count, it basically says if you were a biden voter, trump did not want your vote counted and if thats the case he was trying to infringe on your civil rights. How in the world are you going to pick a jury, when you are telling folks you are a victim, and if you were a biden voter, you are a victim because they were trying to deprive of you a civil rights count. And how could they use that to their advantage . Could they get it thrown out . They will think seriously about a change of venue. And they will do a lot of search and Data Analysis and the washington, d. C. And the number of people who work for the federal government and the number of people who work for federal agencies where biden is their boss and they will say, judge, the man who is running against their boss, might very well cost them a job transfer or something else, is here to, you know, this case, we cant get a fair trial here, and thats an important part of the count, because there is a swing one way of democrat versus republicans, but they will do other statistical things and then raise the issue of judge, are you going to allow them to ask who they voted for, because theyre saying in this indictment, that trump tried to have those votes not counted. And so just like you would be able to ask, just think about it this way, if you have somebody charged with a bank robbery, you cant put jurors in the box who were depositors at that bank, because youre basically saying this person was here to rob the bank, and he was going to actually steal your money. Now you get to decide if he is guilty of trying to rob the bank. So i think these are the kind of nuances that were going to see for the next year. And thats why i think the idea that we get into a case in six months or seven months is just a fantasy. Because all of these things are going to have to be litigated out, and motions and appeals and interlocutory appeals as we go forward and i think there will be some things that have merit as the Trump Team Makes an argument, there will be an argument about the first amendment, the threat, the alleged threat, is that political speech and protected by the constitution or was it actually a threat against the prosecution. As i read it, i cant see anybodys name in it so i dont know who it is true so that is the kind of thing the judge will have to ferret through. In a few words, this is going to be in your opinion a very difficult case. I think it is a difficult case to prove State Of Mind and to get past some of the constitutional questions that come out. Really interesting stuff that i learned here. Thank you very much for coming in michael moore. Thank you. A social Media Influencer has been charged with Invicitina Riot after thousands came to union square for a giveaway. Kai cross cenan announced a giveaway and on friday, it got out of hand quickly 3. 00 people turned into thousands of people in minutes. Apparently they there really was no giveaway.

And european officials. Depending on the outcome, the russian leader could see support for ukraine diminish. Cnn National Security correspondent kylie atwood looks at how that might influence putins plans. American and european officials are concerned that President Putin may be factoring the 2024 president ial elections into his ukraine war approach. Essentially banking on the possibility that if President Biden loses, and trump or another republican candidate wins, that u. S. Support for ukraine would diminish, which would then of course benefit putin. And now this is not a steadfast hard u. S. Intelligence assessment on putins mindset but u. S. Officials do think that he is taking this into consideration, and as one expert said, it is basically a potential light at the end of the tunnel for putin that would drive down any possibility of a nearterm resolution to this war. Now, obviously, we know that the likelihood of a nearterm resolution is quite low now. But this could incentivize putin, folks are concerned in the u. S. And europe, to drag on the war, through november of next year. Kylie atwood, cnn, washington. Lets stay focused on russias war in ukraine, and the latest on an attack in the black sea. Ukraine struck one of russias biggest oil tankers in an attack overnight. A source tells cnn a sea drone carrying almost a thousand pounds of explosives struck the ship. Russian Officials Say the ship was not carrying oil. It came hours after ukrainian sea drones targeted a coastal naval base and hit a russian war ship. We have more on the latest, tell us more about the strategy behind the Sea Drone Attacks by ukraine. This has proven to be a crucial moment in the continued counteroffensive and we know the counteroffensive has been slower and anticipated territorial gains are not as substantial, and now we are seeing a shift, particularly on the black sea, since russians withdrew from the black sea initiative. And we are seeing increasing attack against russian targets and we note this morning, of course, there was another coach on the russian oil tanker, using the maritime information. And we heard from the Ukrainian Service and they say the attacks will only continue to increase and will continue so long as Russian Troops are in ukrainian waters and ukrainian land. There hasnt been an outright acceptance of responsibility fy ukrainian forces, one source says this was a joint endeavor, joint service, and many people have denied comment and responsibility on this matter at this stage. We also have the secretary of ukraines National Security and defense council, he says, he spoke about this uptick in Drone Operations with the maritime and air operations, and these are growing more accurate with time and the operators are only increasing in their experience, and that these will continue to be the focus for ukraine, and the aim at this stage is to expand the scale and the range of the attacks targeting russian positions, and this will form a crucial part of ukraines continued counteroffensive and of course we continue to see fighting on the Eastern Front lines, increasing in intensity, and ukraines progress has been slower, we have heard that they are persistent, they will continue to move forward, to try and push and break through the russian defenses, and they have had some success at this stage, and that is continuing. Live from london, thank you. One of Vladimir Putins harshest credits has been dealt another legal defeat. The court has sentenced Alexey Navalny to almost 20 additional years in prison. Navalny was already serving 11 1 2 years. And he is willing to put his freedom and his life on the line again. Cnn International Diplomatic editor Nick Robertson has more. Reporter entering a courtroom that looks as flimsy as the legal case against him, Alexey Navalny and his legal team line up to hear his almost predictable sentencing. 19 years. The judges words utterly unintelligible in the pressroom next door convicting putins harshest and most persistent critic, of creating extremist communities, charges navalny denies, he neither bowed or cowed and even shared a joke with his lawyer. After sentencing, using his Telegram Channel to held his special regime colony, the number doesnt matter. The verdict is not for me. Its for you. They want to frighten you. Not for the first time is navalny being made an Object Lesson that the cost of challenging putin, poisoned and almost killed with a deadly nerve agent, novechuck almost three years ago and barely survived and recovered in germany and then returned to moscow six months later. Despite the certainty of what awaited him. He was arrested, charged with fraud. And other offenses he says are bogus. And is currently serving nine years. In jail, he says, he has been denied sleep, kept in isolation, intentionally made sick, and almost completely cut off from his family and lawyers. Putins brutality has taken s toll. Navalny has lost weight. There are no calls, no visits, allowed 35 minutes a day with a pen and paper and allowed two books. These actions are clearly an open strategy to destroy my fathers physical health and maybe mental, too. Putin it appears, intends to silence not just navalnys supporters, but the man himself. The new sentence expected to be served in one of russias harshest and remote penal colonies, kill cwill cut him of from the outside world, a price he said at the trial he is willing to pay. It is a test of wills, putin has the upper hand but navalny seems to be quite literally betting his life that that will change. In fact, he said as much in that telegram statement. He said this is a life sentence, but a life is the length of my life, or the life of this regime. Victor, amara . Thank you very much.

And an email to the agency cites the end of the covid19 Public Health emergency and a benefit of increased productivity from in person work. Each agency sets its own work requirements for employees, but the white house is asking them to aggressively execute the return to work. Inflation is slowing, wages are rising, and recession fears are easing but americans are generally pessimistic about the economy. And according to the latest polls, they blame President Biden. Polling shows bidenomics is not resonating and the president is not getting credit for the improving economy. The white house plans to put up signs with his name on major infrastructure projects, White House Reporter Jasmine Wright joins us now with the details. Jasmine, tell us more about this new strategy. Reporter well, this strategy is reflective of the fact that on paper the Biden Administration continues to see really trends of positive Economic Data come to them on their doorstep, but in reality, that positive data is not translating to the American Voter, not translating to their pocket, so there is a major disconnect there, and now the administration has a lot of positive data to fall back on, including that fridays jobs report number, and 187,000 jobs added in the economy in july, and historically low unemployment rate, and the lowest Inflation Rate in the last two years and Rising Consumer sentiment. But still, we know that voters just dont see it. According to a cnn poll, taken in july, released just this week, it found that 37 of respondents approve of President Bidens handling of the economy. And now that breaks down really totally when it comes down to partisan lines. Also we know from that poll that just 25 of respondents say that the economy is doing good right now. So therefore, what the Biden Administration is trying to sell is not exactly making it to their voters, really making it so theyre having a shift in their approach, trying to be more aggressive, when it comes to telling the American People exactly what President Biden has done for them and their pockets and we heard Vice President Kamala Harris talk about it, very intensely, on friday. Take a listen. With todays jobs numbers make clear, bidenomics is working. Todays numbers reflect the point that President Biden has made many times. Americas economy is strong. And experiencing stable and steady growth. Now, when you talk to white house officials, they will say that they know that that message of bidenomics which is basically the positive outcomes happening in the economy, plus President Bidens legislative wins together, will take a while to sink in with the American Voter and the american electorate. As a whole. But they hope that that overt messaging that we just heard from Vice President harris, we also heard it from President Biden over the course of the week, talking about what theyve done for the economy, but also subtle messages, one you mentioned at the top, the kind of project that the administration is putting on, to fully brand President Bidens name, as you can see on the screen here, president funded by president joe bidens bipartisan infrastructure law, across the country and projects like bi rebuilding bridges, dams, et cetera to make peoples lives together and put that together, and seeing President Bidens name when they have a better road or driving to the work or gym or Something Like that and try to move the needle when it comes to consumer sentiment, and just the overall approval of President Bidens handling of the economy. Now they have about 15 months to see if that actually does what it is intended to do, until we get to the 2024 election, but as we know right now, the American Voter is pretty pessimistic about where the economy stands right now.

Simone biles is slated to return to competition today at the u. S. Classic. Biles looked like her typical dominant self in practice completing her signature moves, this will be the first competition since pulling out of several events at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. She was suffering from what is called the twisties, now a mental block that causes athletes to get lost in the air. And im joined now by fivetime olympic medalist, gymnast, good to be with you. Thanks for waking up today with us. Do you watch anything, did you watch anything yesterday, to see how she looks and your confidence of how she will be able to perform tonight . Yes, absolutely, i have watched a lot of Training Footage and to be completely honest, its so baffling to me how shes able to come back every single time, not just back to where she was and the shape that she was in, but even better than she was, and being better than the best in the world, and the goat, is nearly impossible, and she continues to prove that it is possible. Shes got 11 olympic medals, four of them gold, dozens literally of National Championship medals, she could have retired, right . You could have gone to commentary, endorsements, speaking deals, why do you think shes coming back . You know, i think for her, its ending on her own terms, and when i spoke to her, i want to say about a year ago, thats kind of what she said, and she really just, its not about the medals, its not about winning again, but really, i think, because it was such a mental block, and the twisties, it is almost like you dont want to go out with that, and like your last reminder of the sport, and also, because she still loves the sport and clearly she is still able to be on top so it is almost like why not . The twisties, lets talk about that. Because the number of rotations in some of these routines, to get lost in the air, when youre upside down, several times in a couple of seconds, how do you get over Something Like that . Well, its, first of all, every single gymnast, i would say 99 of all gymnasts have had it, will have it, go through it, and the most challenging part is you cant really obviously control when it happens, and so it was really just the worst timing, unfortunately, for her, because the best way to kind of get over the twisties is just to go be back in your own home gym and do all of these skills on very safe surfaces and landing, such as the foam pit and mats and extra spot and the games youre not able to do. That the landings are hard and it is very dangerous and especially the level of skill that she does, it is dangerous without the twisties, and then you throw that on top, it just becomes extremely, extremely dangerous, so to be completely honest, she did the absolute right thing, she was taking care of, you know, not only her Mental Health, but also physically. Yes. You know, coming back, at this level, and the level at which she competes, you know, it is like, i dont even know if it it is a fair comparison, because this is in many ways a singular sport when jordan came back to play on the washington wizards, he was at the end of his career, it was a team sport but you expect the great to remain great. If she doesnt do great tonight, what does that mean . Well, first of all, i dont think that that will happen, and i think by great, she has already proved that, just in the training, and the hardest part is you know, really gymnastics is physically demanding but it is really mentally challenging, as we saw from her at the last olympics. But also to have the expectations and the pressure that she has, i mean i felt it on a very like smaller level and scale coming back, after you win the ultimate, in the pinnacle of our sport which is the allaround gold at the olympics, so much more attention and expectation and pressure is on you, and so really, shes obviously capable of doing it, shes capable of being on top, and she just proved that in the Training Sessions yesterday, so really it is just about going out there and getting comfortable again, because it has been a few years since she has competed. Regardless of the outcome here, tonight, this isnt going to make or break how paris will look for her next year. This is really about getting back out there on the competition floor, qualifying for nationals, which yes, she does have to do, even though she is simone biles, she has to get a certain score and moving on to the National Championships in a few weeks. Beyond simone and whats next for her career, what do you think the last two years of her break meant for sports, professional sports . Specifically womens sports. And i pair that with naomi osaka in tennis saying she needed a break as well. Well, as i said, its not just physically demanding but it is mentally demanding and challenging, and you know, youre training seven hours a day, six days a week, and the older you get, the more challenging it is, especially in a sport like gymnastics, and so you know, i think she, she needed that break, she needed both to step away from the gym, mentally, physically, heal her body, heal her mind, she got married, and i think living a quoteunquote normal life, whatever that even means to be normal, i guess, but you know, i think just seeing her back out there, when you start gymnastics and when youre training that many hours a day, you have to love it and you have to be so passionate about it and so you can definitely see that, and not to mention, she is just such a huge rolemon model for athleted women and men and everybody across the country, and the world as well. Thank you so much for spending time us with. And i agree, it is probably a very, very small chance that she wont be great tonight, especially after watching some of that practice footage. Good it have you. And well both look forward to seeing simone compete.

At least 62 Million People across the south and the southwest are under heat alerts today. The temperatures are continuing to hammer parts of the u. S. This weekend. Allison chinchar is here. Extreme heat. Can you tell my husband about that . Because he wants to go on a bike ride after work. And i dont want it to be too hot. Take a shower afterwards. The best advice for you. Take water with you. Hydrate. This is a summer that will never end. For some many places, it is not just hot like a normal summer, records being broken consistently for weeks at a time, you still have the excessive heat alert stretching from California All The Way over towards florida, so again, were not just talking one or two states here, this is pretty widespread, when you factor in the humidity along with the actual temperature, like we often get here along the gulf coast region, that feels like temperature, it is going to reach 118 today, in corpus christi. Not must better in brownsville, baton rouge, 114, 115. Out to the west, very hot, 5 to 10 degrees above normal for places like tucson, phoenix, as well as las vegas, about 100 locations over the next few days, have the potential to break records yet again. At least for the next few days, before that heat finally cools back down. Maybe late next week. We also have some very Heavy Rain Showers moving across portions of the central u. S. , it is not just flooding, but also damaging winds and the potential for hail are concerns today. Allison, thank you very much. So a Real Estate Agent is in, lets say some trouble. Okay. Caught on camera, needless to say, this is not not going to do it. He was caught on Camera Chugging milk out of the bottle straight from his sellers fridge. Here is cnns story. Milk. The civilized way to drink it is out of a glass versus guzzling it out of a jug, unless of course youre celebrating a win at the indy 500. But it was no victory when a canadian Real Estate Agent got caught on Surveillance Video opening the fridge and chugging out of the milk chug for about six seconds, while alone in this home waiting to show it to potential buyers. Why . Why . Why . Why would somebody do that. Mike rose almost closed the fridge and then opened it again for another lingering look, the fullertons were angry, and each lost a parent to covid. The idea of it just, it just grosses me out. Because of the way he got milk . He got whacked with almost 17,000 u. S. Dollars in penalties and costs, the British Columbia Financial Services authority calls it conduct unbecoming. The homeowner confronted rose last summer when the episode happened. I asked him, i said is there anything you want to tell me about the last time you were in my home and he said oh, the Milk Incident . And he was so nonchalant about it. Fullerton says he also accidentally broke her couch by sitting on the arm. Cnn wasnt able to reach rose. But he has yet to apologize for his very unfortunate and very uncharacteristic decision, telling local outlets, i have never done this kind of thing before, nor will i ever behave in this way again. He told the authority he was unusually dehydrated because he was taking new medication and under considerable stress. What did you do with the milk . I threw it away. Hide your milk when mikes around, wrote one joker on roses facebook. He had to move to a new real estate firm. He found out what the star of anchorman already knew. Milk was a bad choice. Jeanne moos, cnn. Get a glass. Get a glass. New york. To claim that he has never done that before and doing it for the first time at someones help. If youre dehydrated, do you reach for milk . And a six second chug is not a sip. That is a lot of milk. I wouldnt even do this in my own home. Thanks for watching everyone. Much more in the next hour of cnn newsroom.
