Description
Today begins a momentous three days of hearings in Trump’s classified
documents case in the Florida courtroom of Judge Aileen Cannon. In an
alternate timeline, the criminal prosecution — which was originally
slated to start on May 20 — is already underway. But in the real world,
Cannon has postponed proceedings indefinitely — and it’s likely that,
pending what happens today, Monday and Tuesday, they won’t begin at all
in 2024. Senior legal affairs reporter Kyle Cheney joins Playbook
co-author Ryan Lizza to discuss. Plus, after an enormous wave of
donations triggered by his conviction in New York, Trump has all but
erased Joe Biden’s cash advantage in the presidential race. All that and
the rest of the news you need to know today.
