This final version of the bill. But a couple of things have unfolded. In the last half an hour. One of them is that a key amendment that was really important to some of those hard line republicans failed. Theyd failed on a ti, the vote was serenely close, 212 to 212. So what you were seeing play out on the floor, right now is a vote on the underlying bill. The final version of this legislation that does not include an amendment that was very important to some of those conservatives that would have required a warrant. Even american citizens sam was picked up in some of those dragnet searches that are part of the federal Intelligence Surveillance act, section 702. So right now, what youre for seeing as many more democrats voting for this legislation, then republicans, of course, there are some democrats who are on the side of the privacy concerns that hardline republican pins but this is a very interesting moment for Speaker Johnson. This is something that a lot of hardline conservatives are blaming him for saying that this biggs amendment sworn amendment didnt get included their frustrated. I just talked to bob good a conservative who said that this is the reason it didnt pass was because leadership was post to it. So its going to be really interesting to see what does this mean for johnsons future . I also just spoke to Marjorie Taylor greene a few minutes ago. I asked her if this makes her more were likely to push forward with that motion to vacate. She said that is not what shes saying, but she is very frustrated with johnsons leadership on this issue. Brianna all right. And so right now is were looking at the vote here. Can you see the tally there, lauren, what are we expecting here is this is going to play out timing wise well, i think that we are waiting to see whether or not this path is right now. Yes, i can see the tally. It looks like they are vowed to call this vote, right now. I cant hear exactly what hes saying there at the desk, but this vote is obviously looking like its going to pass. And we are waiting to see that final announcement. But one thing i will just keep in mind for you here is that this was an issue that if the warren actually pass it was going to make it very difficult to get this through the United States senate. The fact that that amendment went down means that it may have, an easier time getting through that chamber, getting signed by the president. And enacted before the april 19 deadline. Brianna all right. Youre saying here that this bill is actually passed . Yes. It did just pass. We were watching that happened before fries there. Lauren fox. Thank you so much for the very latest on capitol hill. This modified surveillance bill passing, having to do with section seven of the foreign Intelligence Surveillance act. Thank you for that report. Jessica. Well, as that is all unfolding on the house floor embattled House Speaker mike johnson is on his way to maralago. Hes going to hold a joint News Conference with former President Donald Trump looking to emphasize their close ties as johnson faces a direct challenge to his speakership as lauren was alluding to there. Gop congresswoman Marjorie Taylor greene is standing by her threat to force a vote to remove johnson as speaker. Cnns Kristen Holmes is joining us now, live from West Palm Beach and chris and lets start first with what this Press Conference is supposed to be about Election Integrity worth noting here, that trump continues to make false claims of widespread fraud in the 2020 election in the johnson played a key role in trumps efforts to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 election. What more can you tell us yeah, it just you were expecting two things out of today. One, we are told that they are likely to relitigate the 2020 election not surprising given the fact that donald trump still continues to do that at rallies behind the scenes all the time. And we know the johnson was a key player behind the scenes in trying to get that election over but the other thing theyre going to go, go draw attention to today is this idea of noncitizens voting. This is something that has become somewhat of a republic we can rallying cry that i want to be very clear here from any data that we have, that this is a big issue and also there is a federal law banning neurons citizens from voting in federal elections. That elections at both johnson and trump would be dealing with but again, republicans have really seized on this issue, donald trump has said that democrats actually want undocumented immigrants coming over the border to help them in the 2024 election. Part of this is linking this issue of elections to Immigration Issue that republicans know is hochul to so Many American voters we expected me talking about this today. I do want to add a little bit of nuance just so that we are clear. There are some cities and states who allow noncitizens to vote in local while actions Like School Board elections. But this again, is not something that is widespread all right . Kristen holmes, worse in West Palm Beach, youll be there. Is that all plays out this afternoon . Thanks so much. And joining us now to discuss, we have former republican congressman of illinois, joe walsh and also sarah matthew. She served as Deputy Press Secretary during the trump administration. Joe, i mean through there to promote Election Integrity and without irony, no, no less yeah. Brianna and jessica, can we just for a moment, pause and not brush by this and get into the politics like, what does it mean that Speaker Johnsons down there by his side . Johnsons down there with trump to talk about Election Integrity donald trump tried to overthrow an American Election. Hes been indicted twice on his efforts to overthrow an American Election brianna id add this donald trump on the stump at every one of his rallies so far this year is telling his voters, again that either he will win or the election will be stolen from him so all ready, hes undermining our election. We cannot become numb to what this is sarah, its worth noting and kristen touched on this. There is no a federal law prevents any noncitizen for voting. So no state is allowing that to happen. There is some nuance with these local School Board Elections that sort of thing. We just had that map up why its almost like were in Upside Down Land where you just you have the facts that we just laid out that joe just talked about that we know that there is a federal law preventing this. Why do they keep talking about this in this way . Well, it just furthers trumps narrative that the 2020 election was stolen from him. And so he wants to spread misinformation like this as we all know, that federally, Illegal Immigrants cannot vote in our election systems. But he wants to perpetuate that narrative that they could because he thinks that it will help him not only prove that his claims about the 2020 election, but it also plans to seeds of doubt and case he loses in 2024. I think that thats what hes starting to do. We saw him do this in 2020 when he talked about mailin voting and how fraudulent it was. It was hen trying to plant the seeds because he knew do that theres a chance he could lose to joe biden just as he knows that theres a chance that he could lose in 2024 again. And sarah, just because johnson is visiting maralago, it doesnt mean this is all going to work out for him with trumps support. We should remember that. How do you look at this moment for how . This, for what it could mean when it comes to johnsons. I guess, trajectory, if you will i, think something thats really important to keep in mind is that loyalty is a oneway street with donald trump. And so obviously Speaker Mike Johnson was one of trumps most vocal spreaders of the big lie that the 2020 election was stolen. Hes going down there today to hold this Press Conference to talk about Election Integrity a gritty. And hes doing that all because he knows that he needs to save his speakership because hes worried that trumps close ally Marjorie Taylor greene will force this vote on a motion to vacate, and will oust him from the speakership. But its kind of pathetic in my opinion, just because it seems like right now Speaker Johnson is a little bit more concerned with keeping his job than actually doing his job and his job is to put a vote on the floor for ukraine aid. But hes afraid to do so because he knows that it will upset folks in the conference like Marjorie Taylor greene, and donald trump because he knows that donald trump is not supportive of ukraine aid, but mike johnson has a moment to really change the course of history honestly, with this Ukraine Aid On ukraine is running out of ammunition and putin looks more and more likely to win. There if we are not helping them in their fight for freedom. And so right now, Mike Johnsons downs going to maralago, trying to kiss the ring to save his job, but i wish like you would actually do his job joe, that is a big question. Is, is it will bring up ukraine at all while hes down there because that is a giant issue in front of him that is as you just laid out, like so very important in the span of history and what it means for ukraine in its war with russia. But beyond that, there are also all of these dynamics at play, which is you have President Trump who is running for reelection. You have mike johnson, whos trying to save his job, and you have Marjorie Taylor greene, who is a close out why of trumps whos threatening to oust johnson . Well, how do you think those dynamics are going to play out both today and in the weeks to come they cant govern jessica. Lets just be honest, my former republican colleagues cannot govern and theyve proven this over and over. Look, i have no doubt that johnson will get on his knees and bag trunk to help him on ukraine because i think johnson wants that vote on the floor. But he just right now doesnt have enough courage to do it that republicans have proven their utterly dysfunctional. And i think they know, i think most members of that caucus no, theyre going to lose support of the house, but jessica, i need to say this one more time, referring to trump and Election Integrity. And you said its its like were an Upside Down Land. Yes. But this is what trump wants. And this needs to be said, and this is dangerous. Everything trumps says now about the 2024 election been stolen will incite violence, will incite a january 6 will insight his supporters to get violent and donald trump wants that that cannot be said enough. Trump wants there to be violence, just like he did after the 2020 election. Its not academic. We all saw january 6. We know what can happen. He knows what can happen joe, sarah, thank you so much to both you. We do appreciate your time. Today here in the next hour, a federal judge is going to be considering whether to throw out these charges facing trumps two codefendants in this classified documents case. The trump employees are trying to get their Obstruction Charges dismissed. They claim they didnt know that they were moving boxes of Class Ossified materials from maralago. And one of them, walt nauta, claim the boxes contained random items like News Clippings and hairspray. Thats according to a newly released fbi transcript. Cnns evan perez is outside that federal courthouse evan, tell us more about this hearing today and this transcript well, yes. So in the next hour, were going to see lawyers for walt nauta and carlos de oliveira. These are employees of the former president. Theyre still employed by the former president and theyre accused of helping to move some of these boxes that contain that the prosecutors claim say contained in these classified documents that are at the base of this of this of this case in this trial, theyre asking for these Obstruction Charges to be thrown out because they say they didnt know what was in these in these boxes and they did not obstruct, they did not try to block this investigation, didnt know that there was an investigation going on ill play you just a little bit of brian butler, who we anticipate is going to be unimportant witness for the prosecution. He was identified in the indictment against all of these menn as employee five, and he talked to Kaitlan Collins about his interactions with walt nauta with regarding these boxes. Listen during the us getting luggage, walt asked, hey, i need a minivan. Sure. Go ahead and then he left and i was i didnt think anything of it. It was a little odd the way he asked me. I mean, its stood out now after all this but him in carlos were gone at that time i didnt know because typically he wouldnt go get a vehicle, drive himself in, get luggage so it was unusual for him to make that ask of you . It seemed odd to me once i figured how everything went and what we expect, of course, is that butler will be an important witness for the prosecution. But Last Night We Saw for the first time was not as interview with the fbi, which has happened back in in may of 2020 he two and he described he minimized what he thought was in those boxes list. Ill read you just a part of this exchange with the fbi in which nada says this, he describes a lot of his personal items. They carry their all in the same box the fbi agent says, but now youve looked inside these boxes, nada doesnt respond to that. He says his personal items and the fbi agent says, so when you say personal items, what our personal items and not a Response Hairspray Shampoo of Course Brianna and jessica, we now know from this indictment, the fbi says and the Justice Department says that there were highly classified documents are part of the reason why nada was being interviewed was they wanted to know what damage had been done to National Security by then being stored at maralago now, were to wash her hair with compartment and information. I will say pretty strange trump to be clear, evan is not there today at court. I wonder if the judges decision could it could affect his case . Absolutely, look i think thats the context that hangs over all of this. If these two codefendants are able to remove, these or get rid of these Obstruction Charges, then you can bet that trumps attorneys will come back to this court and say that they should have removed the charges against him as well. He is alleged to have conspired with these men to obstruct this investigation. Of course, theres a lot more evidence. The prosecutors say they have that indicates trump trying to obstruct this investigation beginning with of course, the fact that he refused to comply with a subpoena asking for him to read for him to return these documents. Jessica, brianna all right. Evan, thank you for that report. Live for us from florida.
