Washington and sarah, what does this decision by the appeals court mean for trump s case in georgia? while aaron, it essentially means that barring some sort of miracle for the district attorney s office, there s just no way that donald trump is going to be going to trial anytime before this november election in this it s georgia election interference case. now, what normally happens when an appeals court takes up an issue is that automatically what has been going on at the trial court level is staying aid. but this was an unusual situation where the trial court judge judge mcafee said he was going to continue on even if the appellate court decided to take up this issue. so today, the appeals court made it very clear that this prosecution against donald trump could not continue at the trial court level as long as they re weighing these issues. and again, this means we re looking at potentially of re-litigating willis s romantic relationship with a fellow prosecutor, whether she should have been removed for the case from the case as a result of that, as result of other public comments
She made about the case as well. the trial court judge criticized her conduct very heavily, but allowed her to remain on the case as long as her fellow prosecutor stepped down, what s also interesting about the way this process works is once the floodgates are open, now that this court has agreed to hear this appeal, it allows the district attorney s office to bring the aspects into this too. so they are going to be appeals court and saying, look, the trial court judge, throughout a couple of counts against donald trump and his co-defendants, we want those brought in. we want those the charges brought in. so this is again, something that s going to involve a lot of lawyerly arguments. it could stretch on for months, as you pointed out, this is tentatively set for oral arguments in october but again, that s a tentative date. we don t even have a hard date on the calendar of if this appeals court is going to hear oral arguments and when that could happen. all right, sarah, thank you very much. now, in front now, ty cobb, the former trump white house lawyer, tie the appeals court. now, as you hear sarah detailing ordering all work to stop in the georgia election case against trump s. so just

Election subversion case against donald trump and several of his co-defendants. ease now paused indefinitely delivering a massive legal victory for the former president who is hoping to push these legal issues into 2025, perhaps at least at the very least until after the 2024 election, the appeals court in georgia ruling the case, there cannot go forward until a panel of judges decides whether fulton county district attorney, fani willis is disqualified, that the da kann ask the appeals court to fast track that case. the timeline, though e is completely up to the court and happening in the next hour. steve bannon will be in a us district court over a justice department request to have him begins serving his four-month prison sentence. trump s former adviser was convicted nearly two years ago. i ve contempt of congress after defying a subpoena tina involving the january 6 capitol riots, cnn political correspondent sara marie is live outside us district court in washington. so sarah, what are we expecting in court today?

Woman. now, the other significant information that came out from the cross examination is that hallie biden said she was going through rehabilitation treatment in early october, and that was part of why hunter biden came back to delaware, and he attended some of those sessions with hallie biden. there was a very tortured series of questions from lowell to biden, and she sometimes seemed nervous and was looking around the gallery, and i noticed her looking at her brand new husband, a man by the name of john anning, my colleague spoke with him. they just got married this past weekend, chris, and when sarah asked him about that, he said this is one heck of a way to spend the honeymoon. this is speaking to really the complicated emotional and family dynamics that are at play during this trial. yeah, complicated to say the least. hallie biden was in a romantic relationship with hunter biden in october of 2018, and that s when the gun was purchased. as you ve been following along with this trial, how important is that, and how important is
From the discussion itself. how i think that any person, if you re exhausting your remedies to appeal really should be able to do that outside of jail. why? because if you serve the sentence and an appellate court it says we re reversing. its irreparable harm. you ve already served. and so the argument of his lawyers will be listened. the appellate court ruled that what i was not successful, that certainly i was convicted during trial and that will stand, however, i can still now go to the dc circuit. they call it on bonk. that s, that s all of the justices and the dc circuit valuating that. and if not, perhaps as supreme court. so i think they do that is bannon s team have a very good argument to make that if the judge puts him in, which won t be today, they usually in federal court gives you a time to surrender the harm would be done. let s wait for all of this to be exhausted. so i think he has a very credible argument, but ultimately wealth, it depends upon the person wears the blank robe, and that s the judge so sarah, how soon based on what you re hearing, what you re reporting

Less likely 11 percent, no difference 55. independence different story, more likely 16, no difference 58. twenty-six number in the middle, bigger than a lot of people expected. final thoughts? i think it is really too soon to tell exactly how does conviction is going to sway the election, there is a numbers of voters who were open to having their votes swayed by the conviction as a relatively small compared to the rest of the electorate. most people have seen with his conviction in either were more excited to vote for trump or are reaffirming their believe that donald trump was a crook all along. adding a small segment of the electorate who might change their mind, we do not know how powerful this will be went to the election is still five month after the conviction. trace: and we will talk by the way to a lifelong democrat adjustment is coming up who is voting for trump and he will tell you why, it to be fascinating. julia, sarah, thank you so much, we appreciate that. meantime, testimony underway in
