| 0:00.0 | Tonight, the DOJ in disarray as a federal judge tosses out the criminal charges against former FBI director Jim Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. |
| 0:12.9 | Then the administration says they want to talk affordability. |
| 0:16.5 | But the Treasury Secretary's latest financial advice raises serious questions about their solutions. |
| 0:22.4 | Plus, the U.S.-backed plan to end the war in Ukraine sparks confusion over who actually |
| 0:27.6 | wrote it, the U.S. or Russia, as the 11th hour gets underway on this Monday night. |
| 0:45.1 | Good evening once again. I am Stephanie Ruhl and check the calendar because we are now just 343 days away from the midterms. And today, Donald Trump's retribution agenda hit a big |
| 0:52.4 | old roadblock. A judge dismissed the federal cases against |
| 0:55.7 | former FBI director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. The ruling found that |

| 1:42.9 | which means that another prosecutor could |
| 1:45.1 | bring them again. But an attorney for Comey released a statement pointing out that the statute of |
| 1:49.9 | limitations has run and there can be no further indictment. Combe reacted to the decision earlier |
| 1:54.8 | today with the following post. The message has to be sent that the President of the United States cannot use the Department |
| 2:03.6 | of Justice to target his political enemies. |
| 2:07.3 | I don't care what your politics are. |
