I'm John Besser with my colleagues Andrew McCarthy of the National Review online and that is

0:09.4

MacArthur of American greatness.

0:11.5

Three other trials pending.

0:13.6

In order of what I would say were the headlines, most recently headlines about the court case

0:20.0

in Florida, about documents being mishandled or in some fashion not following the

0:27.0

procedures of top secret documents. The announcement yesterday I and I only saw

0:32.4

headlines was that the judges decided to postpone the trial indefinitely, but I'm unsure.

So all she has said is she has a rigorous schedule set up for trying to get through proceedings that have to be

1:56.3

gotten through between now and the end of July and what she's saying is I'm not going to set a

2:01.6

trial date now because it would be

2:03.2

illusory but when we get through all this work if we can by the end of July it'll be
