Deadline White House

and, of course, under the penalty of perjury. so i suspect vaughn's impulse which is trump can't stop restraining himself is right. he'll tweet, he'll give speeches in front of the courthouse steps and so on. but when it comes to whether he's going to take the stand inside the courtroom, to put it in vaughn terms, if trump does so he will face an loml, loss of his life. i think that's what the lawyers are going to say. >> saw you nodding. >> flow way that i would believe donald trump is going on that stand. he absolutely is narcissistic, he definitely can't resist the microphone. but he also knows the difference between a mic and a courtroom hearing microphone. he knows if he gets on that stand he opens himself up no matter how they rule on the hearing they do today, they may bar some things, there's so much to work with on donald trump. and he knows that.

The Faulkner Focus

on the courthouse steps. the problem is in this particular case, donald trump is expected apparently by the judge to sit back and listen while michael cohen and others say all sorts of things about him that are negative that may or may not even be true and expected by this judge to keep his mouth shut and remain silent. it is not right and not what the first amendment is all about and i think the gag order goes too far. >> harris: convicted lawyers michael cohen hope that what he says is a lie. that has to take the patience of job. house oversight chair james comer said criminal referrals from his investigation into president biden could be just weeks away. he also added impeachment is still on the table for joe biden, the nation's president. democrats have repeatedly pushed comer to say which crimes he thinks biden has committed and those divisions were on full display with committee leaders popping off.

Katy Tur Reports

these rules, why clients have to rely on attorneys to speak, and this is exhibit a as to why. >> help me understand what judge engoron was trying to do by letting him speak, if he was trying to give him whatever room he needed because this is a man running for president. he's going to say whatever he's going to say outside of the courthouse or on social media, why not give him five minutes to give his campaign speech and say whatever he wants to say and say thank you, and move on. >> he can make the campaign speech on the courthouse steps. we have rules in court, and we're so committed, how often do i hear other folks say, we have to treat trump exactly the same as everyone else. i'll tell you a everyone else. i repre everyone else and so do the other lawyers out there. everyone else would never ever, i can't stress this enough, can my client give a speech. every time that happens in court, i'll be completely candid with you, most o. time when that happens in court, the judge flat out yells at a client who speaks up. it happens within a second.

Trump Immunity Appeal

the courthouse steps. but unlike what happened in new york when we saw james the a.g. do something dup diifferent, wet hear them on the courthouse steps. >> oh, no, trump will be a spectator. >> which will drive him crazy. >> he is allowed to talk outside of court. i don't know what he will. one thing that is important and tone of this rgtargument and trump's approach, there has been a shift. early day, he had a different team of lawyers. very aggressive and very political throwing things out there that were just so over the top. but now a shift. and if you -- >> can we just note, you can continue that point, but we do believe this is the former president actually arriving. he has been staying at his golf course in virginia. we believe this is him and his legal team arriving at the court. >> and notice he is going into an area that won't have a lot of
