The reality is that we need to fly people out of maui to give them burn support, because Maui Hospital Cannot do extensive burn treatment. Cnns Derek Van Dam joins us now. What i think is keep is the way is really just dawning there, so i think well just start to get a sense of the damage there. Tell us how this happened . Yeah, its really becoming first light, sunrise roughly about 6 30 local time. Really with this satellite imagery, you see the Orange Specks . These are the three active wildfires, as we go forward in time, we start to see that the hot spots arent as bright as what they were overnight when the fires were at their maximum. What we believe is happening is with a little communication they fires are starting at least to maybe their energy and their extreme erratic fire behavior is starting to calm as the winds gradually calm in the coming hours. So thats good news. The late its wind reports there, over 65 Miles Per Hour, but hopefully that would improve. Youre looking at lahaina. You have to keep in mind, this is the economic hub the western maui. This is where tourists go to vacation, this is where people live. This is where their businesses are located. You can see the hot spots on the big island of hawaii as well, and some of the smoke getting blown out to the Western Pacific because of the powerful winds by an area of High Pressure to the north and Hurricane Dora to the southwest. Its creating strong winds gusting over 85 Miles Per Hour last night, and thats whats fueling these erratic pfeiffer behaviors. We have Wind Advisories and red flag warnings in place. This is similar to the santa ana winds. The winds come up and over the mountains in mawu, similar to southern california. The winds increase and the air dries out at the same time, so it leaves the timber box conditions. Well see that at least for the next 12 hours until Hurricane Dora and that High Pressure system moves west. This caught a lot of people by surprised, not the least because some were sleeping when some of the worst was happening. Well be speak to a reporter in maui in just a few minutes as the day is just starting to dawn and were starting to get a sense of howd about the damage is there, jim. Back here at home, today we are learning about a a Campaign Memo laying out a step by step plan to overturn bidens victory and interfere with the electoral college. At the author is an unindicted coconspirator in the case. Before we break down the memo, which it does lay out point by point what they were trying to do here. Lets go to another decision and access to trumps twitter account. We didnt know about this before, but it was something the Special Counsel got access to earlier this year. The Special Counsels office in january got a Search Warrant for Donald Trumps twitter account. This is what it looked like. He was tweeting all the time. What they were looking for, according to the court filing, was evidence of a criminal offense. On top of that, they were telling the court that they didnt want twitter to tell donald trump that this search want was coming through the criminal process. Because they were still investigating, the judge did say twitter could not tell donald trump about this, appeared one of the reasons is there was a fear he could jeopardizes the investigation, potentially destroy evidence, change his owns behavior. What crime specifically did they expect to find evidence on twitter . He has been charged with four crimes theyre related to january 6th. We dont have the underlying documents yet on exactly what things they had probable cause to get the Search Warrant and access to the twitter account, but twitter was not that easy to work for the Justice Department. They took a few days to turn things over, got a 350,000 fine for that delay, didnt tell trump about this as it was taking place. Now we do have this criminal case and we have this newly unsealed opinion. Okay. Lets go to the memo that lays t the plan to put in fake electors that would turn the result over. Yeah, this is a memo thats been out there, but no one has seen until now. This is not a memo that the January 6th Committee was able to get their hands on apparently, but the Justice Department did quote from it. Last week, its a memo written by Ken Chessborrow who is a lawyer working on this scheme, and wrote multiple memos. What happened was initially they wanted these fake electors to come together on when ken chesebro wrote an additional memo thats cited in the indictment, at that time hes saying on december 6th we want it to look like a routine measure that the fake electors are coming together, but actually we need these, because it will create confusion and people will start to believe that maybe mike pence can overturn the outcome of the election. So prosecutors have zeroed in on this thats notable, because it brings the january 6th motion when they were applying pressure to the Vice President to not count votes, shows that weeks before they were talking about this plan in effect to build a confusion to create justification. And the justification even expands to using the court system. One of the thinks chesebro writes is perhaps the Supreme Court wont rule in our favor, but it will help us, because it will create confusion, a public sphere, buy us time for the campaign. I recognize what i suggest is a bold, controversial strategy and there are many reasons why it might not be securitied. Hes putting the plan in place, and the prosecutors use a sharp word here, this is a sharp departure for this memo when he moves it from a theoretical plan. This is key, setting you up a fake controversy. Thats the idea here, they want to create a fake aura of fraud that would allow the president and deceiving the American Public is crucial in this accusation. Kaitlan polantz, thank you for breaking it down. Norm, this memo is new to us. Why is not a departure from the previous projection. This Ken Chesebro Memo represents the missing link between the benign planning before this memo, for example in wisconsin where there really was litigation going on, and there was a genuine question. They were thinking about how to preserve the electors, and as mr. Chesebro says, the bold and unconventional plan is actually an illegal plan controversial, it says. Its beyond controversial. Its blatantly unconstitutional. Thats the word he should have used. Why . Because the constitution does not provide for when electors are not actually representing a winner in a state. The constitutional does not provide for the Vice President to do the things hes called to do on january 6th, presiding over the meeting of congress. This is the memo where he jump into the illegality that the prosecution charges constitutes these three conspiracies. The memo represents, im not necessarily advising this course of action of the hes covering himself with that language. Is some of these caveats enough to do that . If this was the only memo, it probably would not have been enough to constitute a basis for criminal prosecution, but we know its not the only memo. These are allegations from the Special Counsel, but we also saw them from the January 6th Committee. We have seen the stepbystep progression here to this plot that is a blatant violation of the constitutional terms and, therefore, sound basis for allegations of these violations of federal criminal law. So in the context, its not enough, not even close. Trump didnt write this memo. Right now we dont know if he saw it. Obviously its possible. We dont floe that, though. How important is it for the Special Counsel to prove that trump saw it and endorsed it. The Special Counsel does not need to prove that trump saw the memo. He needs to proffer that trump participated in the illegal different. Brianna, in the very next paragraph in the indictment, after this memo is discussed, the Special Counsel points out that contemporaneous in time, donald trump and john eastman, one of the other lawyers identified as an unidentified coconspirator, they on called the head of the rnc and asked her to help procure the fake electors. Theres contemporaneous evidence throughout the trajectory of the conspiracy, more than enough to charge donald trump, and it seems like hes facing an overwhelming amount of evidence. Norm, thank you.

Lawmakers are reacting to news that Senator Feinstein was briefly hospitalized yesterday, after a fall at home. Feinstein is the chambers oldest member and has faced an increasing number of calls to step down, and she has pledged to not run against in 2024. Lauren fox is on capitol hill for us. Lauren, can you tell us whats happening here . Reporter her office says shes fine. She went to the hospital yesterday after a minor fall, and she had routine tests, but all were clear. This is from their statement she went to the hospital as a precaution after a minor fall. All of her scans were clear, and she returned home. Majority leader Chuck Schumer also said he spoke with the senator from california this morning, that she said she was doing fine, shes recovering at home. I think that its important to point out she was absent from the senate for several months. If you remember, back in february she was hospitalized from complications from shingles. She did face calls from democrats saying that she should step aside. When she returned in may, it happened after there was some pressure because her vote on the Senate Judiciary committee was so key to moving forward many of the president s judicial nominations. There have been some moments over the course of the last several months in which she had seemed confused at times, including right before the recess when she was on the senate reappropriations committee, voting to approval a defense spending bill, and she seemed to read a statement why she supported that piece of legislation, instead of just voting aye. She was reminded by her attach it was time to vote and reminded about the chairwoman, and the office set at the time it was just a confusing set of circumstances. She just had a momentary lapse. So she voted yes, and that was the last of it. Well be keeping a close eye on the senators health when they return in september. Jim . This is big political news. Voters in ohio rejected a measure that, among many things, would have 3 Million People showed up to a poll rejecting a constitutional matter that would have vised a threshold for majority. Reporter the reactions reverberating, as they look to ohio for other protective avenues to protect abbores rights in their own constitutions. Some 3 Million People turned out, certainly not becoming a sleepy august election that some Republican Leaders may have hoped when they scheduled this election. One issue was to change the rules to make it more difficult to amend the constitution. It was about far more than that as well. It was about the petition process, how difficult it will be to get petitions on the ballot. This comes a year after the Supreme Court overturned roe versus wade, sending the issue back to the states. We have seen one state after another, from kansas on to kentucky, montana, michigan as well, protecting Abortion Rights in their constitution. This will be a fullon campaign here in ohio. This is going to be the only state where abortion will actually be on the ballot this november. So look for both sides to pour incredible amounts of resources in. With a simple majority to pass that, Abortion Rights proponents believe this is something they can do. Opponents believe this is a place where abortion can be stopped. Jeff zeleny, thank you very much. Certainly implications for 2024, if you see results like in in remarkably red states, like kansas, like kentucky.
