they were trying to do that even before you were sworn in. well, with milley, let me see that. i ll show you an example. he said that i wanted to attack iran. isn t it amazing? i have a big pile of papers. this thing just came up, look, this was him. they presented me this. this is off the record. but they presented me this. this was him. this was a defense department and him. we look at some. this was him. this wasn t done by me. this was him. all sorts of stuff pages long, look wait a minute, let s see here. oh, my gosh. yeah [laughter] isn t that amazing. this totally wins my case, you know? except it is like highly confidential, secret secret information. look at this, you attack hillary would print that out all the time, you know. no, she would send it to anthony weiner [laughter] the pervert. by the way, isn t that incredible? i was just thinking because we were talking about it. and you know, he said he wanted to attack iran and what these a
and what it means for the war in ukraine. then, despite the mounting legal troubles, the twice and i did former president is still the republican front runner. why some democrats are sounding the alarm. as that 11th hour gets underway on this monday night. good evening once again. i am stephanie ruhle. tonight, for the first time, we are hearing donald trump on day in 2021, discussing a secret document about attacking iran that he did not declassify. as we reported, the conversation is a key part of special counsel jack smith s case against donald trump, and it is referenced in the indictment against him. cnn obtained and played the recording earlier this evening. these are bad, sick people. that was your coup, you know, against you well, it started right at the when hillary, miller is talking about, you are trying to do a coup. they were trying to do that even before you were sworn in. well, with milley, let me see that. i ll show you an example. he sai
is going to be a permanent member of this team. we ll see. and so that is what they re working on now. and kaitlan, judge cannon, we should point out, she s a trump appointee. she did a trump-friendly ruling that was overturned months ago. i know that there are people on the prosecution team who are wary of her. how does the trump team view her? do they think that she s going to be an asset? they re thrilled. i mean, they could not be happier to have her on their team or to have her overseeing this i mean. she is a trump appointee. she was picked in the days after he lost the 2020 election. that s obviously not a comment on whether or not she s a good judge or a bad judge or indifferent. but they re thrilled because they saw how she was what her rulings were when they went to her for the special master case last fall. that was when she got overruled by an appeals court in a pretty embarrassing fashion for a judge because basically they said she was giving trump specia
trump onsie and just have it on hand rapid response every time ron desantis says something to differentiate himself from donald trump. yes, they ve been playing that a lot, but i say gif. the differences go on. thank you,nc my friend. and thanks to you at home for joining us this evening. it was november 12, 2020, and there was a lot going on at the time. it had been less than a week since the networks called the 2020 presidential election for joesi biden. donald trump was just beginning his campaign to deny that result and try and overturn it. just a few days prior trump s lawyer, rudy giuliani, gave his infamous four seasons landscaping press conference to contest thela election results. we all remember that. trump had decided to deny president-elect biden to the classified presidential daily briefing as was the custom in presidential transitions, which in t retrospect seems a bit ironic. just one day later senator lindsey graham would make a phone callou to brad raffen
because they have electronic communications that are solely between the two of them. that they couldn t have gotten out of nauta s. we other pieces there seems to be some kind of witness who paid a key role in bringing this bedminster audiotape, bringing that kerfuffle or whatever you want to call it and it s not been charged with the dissemination case, bringing them to florida. someone said nothing trump was waving around was under iran were document. now the feds can charge trump on that because they have, in their possession, the way they have the iran war plan is revealed in this indictment, and it is surprising to me. one of the things we see in this indictment is a list of all the documents, the classified documents that trump is being charged with willfully and unlawfully retaining. the around word document as dates of when he unlawfully
