0:00.0 | But let's go to the story with Fox News. |
0:01.5 | Trump says Wall Street Journal wants to settle defamation lawsuit. Okay? And Rob, I think you got this video somewhere if I'm not mistaken. And then I'm going to go read. Go for it. This is short. Just say no. Just audio. This is from Air Force One. Go ahead. Yeah, they're having, they want to settle it. Treat it is wrong. |
0:21.8 | I mean, you know, when I get treated unfairly, I do things about it. |
0:26.4 | So we'll see what happens. |
0:29.0 | Okay, so it doesn't say much. |
0:30.8 | And then on the other video clip wrap, overwhelming good cause exists to expedite. |
0:35.9 | Trump wants to put Murdoch under oath right away after filing massive defamation suit against |
0:41.6 | WSJ over Jeffrey Epstein's report, a letter. |
0:45.5 | Trump lawyer Alejandro Brito filed a motion on Monday demanding the billionaire Rupert Murdoch, |
0:51.2 | owner of All Street Journal, sit for a deposition within 15 days, |
0:55.1 | citing Murdoch's age and health, stating the 94-year-old has suffered from multiple health issues |
1:00.6 | throughout his life is believed to have suffered recent significant health scares and is presumed |
1:05.0 | to live in New York. The motion argues that there's good cost to expedite Murdoch's deposition, |
1:09.8 | and the court should exercise its discretion to authorize the same as Trump sues the journal over a report claiming |
1:16.4 | and composed a body, a 50 birthday card for sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. So what's going to happen here, |
1:25.0 | Tommy? What's going to happen with this story? Oh, by the way, are you a full-time employee? Yeah, I sure am. There's not a whole lot. I'm going to comment on this one. I'm going to have to leave it to you guys. Okay. So what's going to happen here? Tom, your thoughts on this one? Well, they're trying to claim that with Rupert's. so what do you do when you sue somebody? If you really believe that there's something there, you want to get to what's called discovery and deposition, D&D, you want depositions so you can ask them questions. You ask them questions the way you answer those questions, you can get judges to look at the deposition and to say, well, the document they were |
2:01.8 | talking about here where you kind of took the fifth and everything, I'm going to allow, I'm going to call |
2:05.9 | that admissible evidence. And I'm going to say that that is a permissible discovery. It's a wrestling |
2:11.3 | match. And so what Trump's lawyer wants, we want a deposition with Rupert Murdoch as quickly as possible. |
2:19.2 | If you're Murdoch, you don't want that as quickly as possible because despositions lead to discovery and lead to documents. |
2:25.6 | So the other side for Trump, Rupert's guys are going to say, well, we got this birthday card and we got some other things here. |
