it's outside the courtroom take any of that into account? >> he could. with respect to inside the courtroom, a judge gets to decide how he or she runs his or her courtroom. the judge my understanding was yes you can deliver your portion of your closing arguments, of course that's highly unusual. you would typically see that in a pro say defendant, someone who represents themselves. the judge says you can do that here but you can't impugn me, my staff, the court system, a.g. and not a campaign speech. on its face normally one would look and say it's reasonable. the problem, though, of course, is that this goes to the heart of what donald trump is arguing saying it's a political hit job. the a.g. campaigned against me and i'm running for president and decide to prevent me from doing so. it's a tricky one and they weren't able to come to an agreement. here we are. >> bill: we would expect the judge to stand by his initial decision and we'll move toward

courtroom any time this case has been on. but she has been there. there has been a lot of media attention on this case and for good reason. she has not missed out on any of that. >> bill: the judge was concerned about trump would make some sort of campaign speech in court. maybe, maybe not. his attorney was played the clip half an hour ago. helene yeah said earlier if he doesn't say it, i'll say it. there will be a camera spray inside the courtroom but not follow it minute by minute. we have to read the emails that flow out of court today. >> dana: mr. secretary, mike pompeo is still with us. let's go back to him and get back to this. i want to play the sound bite from antony blinken about the consequences for the houthis if they continue these attacks on ships as we have the breaking news the ship just boarded, turned around and going towards iran. watch him here. >> as we made clear and many other countries made clear, there will be consequences for the houthis' actions.

color inside the courtroom. >> that's right. this was part of a compromise. the media and former president wanted cameras in the courtroom. we don't get that for the entire proceedings. they bring cameras in for a couple minutes. nobody's talking. it's a little awkward. we have pictures from the scene. there's the former president sitting between his attorneys. that's the last we'll see from inside the courtroom. now we're relying from our colleagues in there giving live reports. what we expect is going to happen now is the question of whether former president trump can participate in closing arguments. there was discussion yesterday on whether he would participate in closing arguments. highly unusual. that's what you hire a lawyer for. the judge was open to it. set some reasonable restrictions. said you can't turn this into a campaign speech. you have to stick to the relevant facts. you can't attack people.

to do. the judge insisted on what donald trump's team is calling conditions. they're really just the rules of court. >> not unreasonable? >> not at all. this is restrictions on any lawyer in any scenario. you can't give a campaign speech. you can't give irrelevant issues. you can't testify. you can't attack motives. these are things legally permissible outside those doors. inside those doors you have rules of evidence and procedure. the judge said i'll consider it if you abide by the rules of court. trump's team didn't agree. they could have agreed. they could have said, sure, he'll abide by that. the fact that donald trump is not up there giving a closing argument is his own doing. >> caroline, big picture, talk to me about -- we have to -- we'll say it because it continues to be true and important to point out. the courtroom is the campaign. this is so unusual on so many

was interested abo wk ago. the judge had said okay, but he to agree to these conditions. and i want to put those conditions back up again for our audience here. no introducing new evidence. no acting as a witness and e essentially testifying without cross examination. he can't bring up irrelevant matters, deliv a campaign speech, or impugn the judge, his court staff, or the prosecution, but trump's team didn't agree to these terms by the judge's extended deadline, which was yesterday. danny, trump's team, they didn't agree. you're a defense attorney yourself. what would you have done with this? would you have wanted trump to testify? or was this an easy out for them? >> i would have done nothing because this motion would never have been granted unless a party is named trump. this isn't how any of this works. originally when it was reported that justice engoron denied the request, i thought that makes sense because no other party with counsel unless they're pro se doing the whole thing by themselves, but if you have an

the stage craft complaining there weren't microphones in front of him so he could speak to reporters. the broader view of -- you have trump back in a courtroom, also in front of a courtroom making a campaign speech. you have another republican who dropped out of the race and you have the debate that you and i discussed happening last night. put it altogether. what does today mean for donald trump's campaign? >> well, let's be clear. there is no campaign without the court. he has made this, these legal issues, all the charges, the indictments the center piece of his campaign. he doesn't want to be talking about policy. he doesn't want to talk about how he would solve problems. he has no interest in that. he didn't solve problems when he

marks as well.ing closing he said trump would be allowed to speak only about materially facts that are in evidence in application of the relevant law to those facts. he also said he will not aow a campaign speech or to attack the court, his staff, the judge, and attorney general letitia james as well. and so there is this expectation, ana, this morning because the trial is supposed to get started, closing arguments around 10:00 a.m. the former president is seated in the courtroom right now. we just heard remarks from him. about 45 minutes or so i saw attorney general letitia james make her way into the courtroom as well. closing arguments are going to be delivered by the defense's team for two hours' time followed by the prosecution for two hours' time as well. there will likely be some appeals made or we expect to see some appeals made by the defense team as to asking the judge if, in fact, the former president

for attorneys as well when they're offer the closing armes. let me read some of them for you as judge engoron laid them out saying this, trump would be weto speak only about evidence and application of the releva law to those facts. helso said he will notow a campaign speech or to attack the court, his staff, the judge or the attorney general letitia james as well. whether or not the former president is still going to try and speak today, that is still in question. let me talk quickly, jose, while i can, but what we're hearing from chris kise inside the courtroom, when it comes to the closing arguments. closing arguments will last for two hours from the defense, and then prosecution two hours following those closing arguments. here is part of what chris kise is talking about now. he's making the argument about the fact that this is beyond the statute of limitations. we heard this before. he's talking about the expert witnesses. in december, when we were wrapping before going to break for the holidays, ellie bartoff,

the judge said you could do it as long as you don't give a campaign speech. the trump team said he wouldn't do that. >> this is highly unusual, but the judge was open to allowing judge to participate, but said there will be guardrails for good reason. you've seen trump attack the judge, the court staff and use this as a campaign strategy to frame himself as political prosecution. the judge said, you have to focus on material, relevant facts and you can't attack your accusers. they wouldn't agree to that. chris kise said that was untenable. the judge shut the door on that possibility. we thought they might revisit this issue. it was interesting because chris kise got up and went right into his closing. so far trump has not ente

president and his team couldn't agree to terms, like the fact he wouldn't give a campaign speech during his closing argument or attack the court itself. >> yeah, the president and his team not only couldn't agree, they couldn't respond. willie, at the end of the email chain, judge engoron says, i've given you three extensions. you have seven minutes. having not responded, he's not going to speak tomorrow. one thing i want to point out to you and our viewers is what we are describing as the judge's preconditions, essentially the same rules that would govern any attorney in delivering a closing argument. there are a couple of things that engoron made transparent that would be obvious to any lawyer as an officer of the court that needed to be said for trump because he doesn't have that occupational background. otherwise, the preconditions are the things that i would have to abide by, for example, when i was in practice, in determine to delivering a closer. they are not unusual.
