| 0:10.8 | The latest development is that the jury has reached partial verdicts in the Diddy trial, or you may call him Sean Combs. |
| 0:20.8 | And so we will continue to update that. |
| 0:23.6 | Deborah is watching that minute to minute, among other things. |
| 0:27.5 | You know, the Trump administration suing the city of Los Angeles, |
