Manhattan DA lawyers worried about indicting Trump over "hush money" payments to Stormy Daniels. In order to convict Trump on felony charges, prosecutors would need to prove Trump intended to commit or wanted to conceal a separate crime through the payments. But a judge might believe the Manhattan district attorney's office is overreaching by enforcing federal law. If the case gets to a jury, jurors may wonder why federal prosecutors didn't bring charges against Trump, or they might not believe Cohen's testimony. A representative for the Manhattan district attorney's office didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

A former Mike Pence aide said it's "absurd" that Donald Trump claimed he can declassify documents with his mind. "If you're the president of the United States, you can declassify just by saying, 'It's declassified,'" Trump said earlier this week. Marc Short, who served as Pence's chief of staff in the White House, said his claim is "absurd" in an interview with CBS News. Trump has so far denied all assertions of wrongdoing, saying initially that he had "declassified" the documents. Under the Presidential Records Act, presidential records must be turned over to the National Archives and Records Administration upon leaving office.

"Trump could kill 50 on our side and it wouldn't matter," Graham told journalists Susan Glasser and Peter Baker, whose new book, "The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021," details the exchange. Trump told his supporters in Sioux Center, Iowa.
