Listen now
Description
Donald Trump's attorneys are again trying to get Judge Juan Merchan to recuse himself from the former President’s upcoming hush money trial in New York, citing his daughter's political work. Several months ago, the judge declined a similar request. A CNN review of the former President's appearances shows he has repeatedly taken steps both inside and outside the courtroom to challenge both the judicial system, and the judges themselves. Anderson talks about it with former federal judge Jeremy Fogel. Plus, new details about the Israeli strike in Gaza that killed seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen. CNN's political and foreign policy analyst Barak Ravid gives his reaction to what the Israeli Defense Forces said about the strike.  Learn more about your ad choices.
