Way Too Early With Jonathan Lemire

morning. the jurors made up of 7 men and five women, one alternate was also chosen, but five more alternates are still needed. the process appears to move faster than expected yesterday after two jurors seated on tuesday were excused at the start of the proceedings. one said she was not sure she could remain impartial after identifying information about her was made public. another was excused following concerns from prosecutors that one of his answers during questioning wasn't accurate. if none of the jurors are excused jury selection should wrap up as soon as today. judge juan merchan sez he's hopeful opening arguments will begin monday. a former u.s. attorney for the district of columbia. thanks for waking up early. your reaction to the speed at which these jurors and alternate jurors were selected yesterday i think i thought and many of us would have thought this was going to go a little more slowly. >> pretty surprising, ali. and i think it's a tribute to

and they've made it aware to johnson that he cannot rely on his own party for support, which he already knows, but he can rely on them. and one of the reasons we know when we talk to voters, the swing voter project, they've been very disappointed with that lack of legislation that has come from congress, and this will be something that democrats will be able to campaign on heading into november while criticizing republicans. >> i think that's right especially given the conversations i've had with democrats who say they even would take the politics out of this and just look at the national security implications of it. raf, we've been talking about israel's ability to fight as this domestic front is happening over the policy, israel is fighting in gaza, on the border with lebanon, and now on iran or with iran. how critical is this american aid coming? >> absolutely critical, ali. and one of the key, key components are the missiles for

air defenses were ready because american troops could be a potential target if iran was going to retaliate. now, ali, almost as important as the strike itself is what both israel and iran are saying about it. at this point, it is really noticeable. the iranians appear to be down-playing what happened in the early hours of this morning. the iranian military saying the explosions people heard were the sounds of explosions going off. they're saying there was no major or significant damage inside iran. and state media is actually being kind of mocking. there's one meme going around on iranian channels basically showing a small hole in the dirt, a laughably small hole, a couple of inches. and they're saying, look, this was israel's response. so that is telling the iranians

>> but it speaks to the sensitivity around this case, right, and the fact that although jury selection doesn't go like this, usually jurors are not sitting there in front of a former president of the united states who's facing criminal charges. it was striking two previously seated jurors were dismissed. what's the chance that we see more seated jurors excused during the selection process today or going forward prior to monday? >> it wouldn't surprise me at all. it's not that unusual for jurors to be selected and then overnight think about the implications of jury service and come in the following day and say, judge, i slept on it and i have some concerns. now, these jurors seem to have real concerns because donald trump is forever trying to inject fear and intimidation into a process, and that's a real perversion of the administration of justice. i can tell you, ali, the last

bad way. when what i've seen judges do, ali, when i've seen defendants insist on violating court orders is the first time they violate a court order they give a stern talking to, the second time they'll impose sanctions probably in this case money, penalty and fines, but i'll tell you that that second violation judges will say three strikes and you're in a jail cell, do it one more time and i will impose the up to 30 days of incarceration that the law allows me to impose, in the event you continue to violate court orders. i would bet the buck on donald trump ending up inside a jail cell because we all know that he can't help himself. he will continue to post things and say things that are likely to violate judge merchan's gag

Trump Trial Today

they have a jury that's very much central casting for manhattan, as ali pointed out, so if you're educated higher socioeconomic status, a lot of them i was pleased to see read news or consume news from rapids jibril outlets and the majority of them are also childless. so this is very manhattan, but i want to go back to juror 11. this is surprising to me that the judge did not strike this juror for cause given the larger context of this case, i think that the trump team is likely going to seize on this. this is someone again who called their client selfish and self-serving, said he's not her cup of tea. i can guarantee you tonight. they are scouring any public information they can find about this juror, as well as the others. we have to remember what happened over the past 48 hours. they left court was seven jurors and then two of them were dismissed. one because there was a record of prior arrest for someone a similar name, and then another one woman was very concerned about her safety. and i think it is highly possible that when we reconvene tomorrow in this case, you could see one or
