Mounting charges all related to his work with trump after the 2020 election. Giuliani says his legal troubles have left him out of cash. And the death toll is rising in hawaii surpassing 100. President biden will travel to maui soon once his visit will not interrupt the Recovery Efforts on the ground. And the family from The Blind Side is pushing back on claims from retired nfl star michael oher that they withheld millions of dollars from him. They claim he would plant a negative story about them in the press unless they paid him 15 million. In just one month, messi has his team reaching new heights. He stored his ninth goal in six games after a victory over Philadelphia Union and miami now heads to the cup final. Hes good. Hes very good. Cnn this morning starts right now. I want to take my kids to miami just to go take them to see messi. You should use my Expert Analysis that i just gave you that hes good at soccer. Thank you for that, phil mattingly. This morning we are tracking several developments as donald trump faces Felony Charges for trying to overturn his 2020 election loss in georgia. This is whats new overnight. The sheriff says the former president will be arrested and booked at the county jail when he surrenders. The District Attorney has given trump and his codefendants until noon next friday to turn themselves in. Trump says he will be holding a major News Conference on monday to prove the election was somehow rigged in georgia, even though multiple recounts and court cases have proven over and over and over again joe biden was the winner and trumps lawyers withdrew every one of those cases. Rudy giuliani, one of trumps coconspirators says he will surrender and hes slming the da for using racketeering charges. The same type of charges he used to prosecute mafia leaders in the 80s. Hes a politician and not a lawyer. Not an honest, honorable lawyer. This is a ridiculous application of the racketeering statute. Theres probably no one that knows it better than i do. This is not meant for election disputes. This is ridiculous what shes doing. Also, i dont know if she realizes it because she seems like a pretty incompetent, sloppy prosecutor. Another codefendant, mark meadows, is fighting to move his case from State Court To Federal court to try to get it dismissed. Thats the most fascinating part of it for me. Lets bring in senior legal analyst elie honig. We know these new things out of georgia. What does this tell us . All four indictments are in. Lets take a moment and assess where we are and whats next. Fulton county is the newest one. Whats happening in that case . The judge has given the parties until august 25th to surrender. Thats the easy way. If they do that, they come in themselves and are processed. If anybody does not surrender, then the dad. A. Has the right to send out Law Enforcement officials to make an arrest. The other big issue, and we just said this, removal, get ready for a lot of talk about removal. Mark meadows is trying to do this. Donald trump will try to follow. In a nutshell, this means if a federal official gets charged with a state crime that relates to that federal officials official job duties, you can get the case moved over to Federal Court and then potentially dismissed. So these are really important motions. Mark meadows has already done this. Trump is sure to follow. The other thing that were watching for here is we have 19 defendants in this case. Thats a lot. And a lot of these folks are facing criminal charges for the first time. Are people going to try to save themselves, cooperate and flip. If so, are they going to be able to take prosecutors up this hierarchy chart. Watch and see if anyone pleads guilty or if theres Cooperation Agreements or an information. A lot of whats in the indictment is part of jack smiths most recent indictment talks. Walk us through those three outstanding cases. Now were into the federal cases. This is jack smiths 2020 election interference case. The big issue there is what will the trial date be. Doj put in a brief asking for january 2nd. Pretty aggressive timeframe. Trump is not responding yet. His response is due later this week. Maybe never. Certainly after the election, and the judge is holding a hearing to decide the trial date and other sklking issues on august 28th, a week from monday. The other jack smith federal case, now were talking about the maralago classified documents case, they are going through how are we going to handle classified documents. Doj returned a superseding indictment, a version 2. 0 where they added this other defendant and added three charges against donald trump. The question is that going to come promiez the may 2024 trial date . The dynamic, trump is going to want to push back. Doj is going to want to say lets keep it. The first of the cases, the ma manhattan case, they are going through pretrial motions and they have a date of march 2024. Calendar . Look how wide open it is. We have an election in november of 2024. New york, the hush money case, their trial is scheduled for march. Thats going to go through april. Maralago, the florida case, that is set for trial starting in may. Thats going to go into july. Now where are the other cases going to fit . Lets take jack smiths case. They want to start it in january. They do not have enough time to get that in before the new york case. Then we have fani willis case. Theres no place for that. You cant so close to the election. If they start a trial in august, theres no way. Especially a rico case. I dont see any room for fani willis case before the election. Even jack smiths case, someone has to get rid of this. The d. A. , not dismisit, but move it. Alvin bragg said publicly, he said if i have to i try to come up to accommodate the others, im willing to try to do that. Thank you so much. We have more in a little bit. Were keeping pace with the legal woes are the strategies to defend him. Hes a sampling of how his allies are responding to this indictment. Imagine if this had been applied to al gore supporters in 2000. This is a direct threat to the american system of the rule of law. There were also alternate electors in 1960. On advice of counsel, trump asked pence to kick it back for recertification, where State Legislatures are empowered to determine elections. Thats called politics. Alternate electors had legal precedent of being selected and chosen in it the kennedy and nixon 1960 election. Joining us now is senior political sport maggie haberman. Theres a lot to dig into here. One of the things i want to start with, i think yesterday afternoon, last night, the alleged report that the former president has decided hes going to release. Its going to lay out fraud that everyone and their mother and every court has repeatedly said is not true. The intent behind this, what is it . So my colleague and i reported yesterday that a number of trumps aids and allies woke up yesterday several after hours after he had been indicted for allegedly trying to subvert the election and being part of a conspiracy to find he had posted this social media posting saying theres going to be a major News Conference on monday where hes going to show this report. We dug into it and learned that a trump aid, who works communications, at least in part compiled what is more than 1 100page report about georgia specifically, as we understand it. And about what she believes and what he believes despite all kinds of evidence to the contrary is widespread fraud in that race. And this is what he was going to move forward with. Its unclear whether this press Conference Goes forward, but thats what it refers to. And we should note to the point that you guys were just making about the various layers of the legal woes here, the aid shows up in another of the indictments that trump is facing, the one related to maralago documents. She was in the room when trump was brandishing what he described as a secret Military Document that he could have declassified a as president. The piece is so interesting. The headline is trump taunts test limits of release. And the lines that the judge sought to lay out about what he can and cannot say. Hes really pushing here in a way that could hurt him in terms of how this trial is conducted, when this trial is conducted. He has been attacking prosecutors and other judges in these various case, but the judge who oversees the January 6th Case against him at the federal level, warned at a hearing on friday there was clearly going to be a limit to trumps free speech. Now his lawyers and his advisers are the front runner for the republican nomination, hes a political candidate, he should have a fair amount of leeway because of that. She was suggesting there are going to be lumts despite that because the laws of the court have to come first. He went within a short time of that hearing and began posting on truth social, his social media website, other peoples posts about the judge, adding some of his own commentary. Generally, it was other peoples. One included a large picture. Hes clearly testing the terms of his release, both in this case and i would say with the attacks on Rt Prosecutors in others. Some lawyers say, and we talk about this in the piece, other defendants if they were doing similar things would be in jail. Its very complicated to think of Something Like that happening to someone who has Secret Service detail, but will the judge or the prosecutors seek some kind of recourse as he continues to talk. She did threaten to move it up the more he talks about not the personal threats, but about discovery. Right. What she suggested is she maybe forced to preserve the sanctity of the jury pool, she maybe forced to move the trial date up sooner if this continues. So well see if the government tries to suggest a that he has reached that. For the last several months, probably longer, theres been a lot of speculation about mark meadows, his role in all of this, regardless of the Special Counsel investigation. He was obviously indicted in the georgia case. He moved alone yesterday to try to chip things from State Court To Federal court i was interested in the fact he did it by himself. He didnt do it with the other 18 codefendants and he moved first. Whats your sense of that dynamic right now . The moving fehr was significant. Youre going to see a pretty aggressive defense in that case. They are trying to lay down a marker this ought to be in Federal Court. Im not surprised it was only him. I dont think in a rico case where defendants are arguing they want to move together. I think that meadows is going to make a specific argument as a former chief of staff. But as you note, med does is the focus of specific attention for a lot of people. For people around trump because people have wondered what he said, for prosecutors because hes one of the people who knew a lot. Now he has clearly was not especially help ful to investigators in georgia. You can just read the indictment and see that. But i think you are going to see him try to argue very ex extensively he should not have to face trial in a state court in georgia. Does it indicate anything to you, though, that he was not indicted in jack smiths probe about january 6th and is indicted here in terms of cooperation . I dont want to speculate about what he may or may not have done in other cases. With january 6th, house select committee, he partially cooperated. He would not give an interview. Here he does not seem to have done a whole lot, although as i understand it, he had been brought in at some point by prosecutors. He is very apparent in the federal indictment, as you say. There are scenes that relate to him, but he was not indicted, but a number of people were not indictmed by jack smith in that case. I would like to see where this goes. Thats fair. Maggie, thanks as always. We have new cnn reporting this morning revealing just how financially taxing defending a former president has been for Rudy Giuliani.

Heres how the governor describes the process. If youre lucky, you get to see fingerprints. Its very hard, but thats why what were doing is were asking all our friends and family in the area who have concern to get swabbed at the Family Support center so that we can match people genetically. This is much like you see in a war zone or what we saw with 9 11. Pooud has issued a federal disaster declaration. You look at the new video, its devastation. Its hrd to get your head around. The federal government deployed resources to the area. Biden didnt weigh in himself publicly until yesterday. Speaking out while visiting milwaukee. Telling he does plan to visit m maui, but dont want to infringe on the Recovery Efforts. Joining us now is the White House Press secretary karine jeanpierre. Were looking at this it new video. The west wing has been receiving regular reports from the ground from fema administrators. At this moment, does the president believe the administration is doing absolutely everything it can or are there things on the federal side he wants to add given the scale of this tragedy . First of all, thanks for having me. I want to say we are praying for those who have lost so much, who have lost loved ones, their community, their household and their businesses. We are incredibly thank tful to the First Responders and the really very brave firefighter who is have been dealing with this fire from the moment it began. So i want to be very clear. As you mention ed, you all hear directly from the president. He takes his job incredibly seriously, which is why he mobilized the federal government to make sure that we did everything that we can on the ground. You talked about the major disaster declaration, the president was able to approve that within hours when the governor requested that. Because thats how seriously he took this and he is taking this. We have dozens of agencies in the Department Working hand and hand with our local partners and our local and state official it is make sure that the people in maui are getting what they need. You heard the president talk about what the fema has been able to do. You think about 50,000 meal being delivered, 75,000 liters of water, thousands of cots, thousands of blankets, all of these things are incredibly important. You see the Department Of Transportation dealing with closely with commercial airlines to get folks out. So we are taking this incredibly seriously. The president has mention ed, yu heard him publicly say that the first lady and himself are going to be going to hawaii, when we know they are not being disruptive. We see fema search and rescue, they are sifting through ashes. Thats going to take some time. You all are reporting more than 100 souls lost. This is a city that has been completely devastated. You think about generations of history on that island that has now been ruined. So were going to continue to be there not just for the shortterm, not just for the shortterm, but for the longterm. And sadly, this president has had to deal with many disasters in the past two years. He has shown up and he has been there and we have federal assistance continuing in those certain other states and cities that are still doling with their disaster. So we are going to be here for the people of maui until they need us throughout this time. Its a good point you bring this up. I heard from a lot of people inside the white house that the focus on Disaster Relief is one of the primary issues that the president puts a lot of pressure on his team to deliver on. Its a critical component of what the government can do. Which is why i want to ask you this question. You will probably think its minor, but the idea of not saying anything until yesterday publicly, why . I would disagree with that. The president , when i w
