Trump employee officially flips and is now working with the feds. And the convicted killer who

And good evening, I'm Aaron Burnett. Outfront tonight denied. A judge ruling against two of Donald Trump's co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case and doing it in an historic televised hearing. It was live on television, something Trump today said he didn't mind.
