Hi and welcome to prosecuting Donald Trump. It is Friday, April 26.

We usually give the time, but I don't think it's that necessary,

but it is before the 930 start of the trial today, so we won't be covering anything that's happening today on Friday,

but we will be covering a lot of news that happened yesterday.

I'm Andrew Weisman and I'm here with my wonderful co-host Mary McCord.

Well, good morning, Andrew and that's right. We will spend probably a pretty significant

portion of today's episode talking about the Supreme Court argument yesterday

on Donald Trump's immunity claim made in his federal case being prosecuted in Washington,

D.C. by Jack Smith, the Special Council.

That's the case that charges numerous criminal violations related to the January 6th

efforts to prevent the peaceful transfer to power.

We will also hit, of course, the highlights

from the last few days of testimony

in the Manhattan trial.

David Pekker has been on the stand pretty much all week

and will be on the stand today.

He is, of course course the former CEO of American

Media which ran the National Inquirer and other tabloid type magazines.

Should we start with some framing of what was in front of the Supreme Court yesterday and then I'm really anxious to kind of make a few top-line points about what I took from the argument and I'm sure you are too, Andrew.

Yeah, and we have actually not had a chance to talk about it, so I'm dying to hear your take.

You know, one of the things that will keep this moving is I have left my venting on the, MSNBC where I was sort of on like morning

due to night yesterday and so I feel like I've sort of expunged that.
