i'm john berman. and i'm erica hill this morning indictment watch drags on, frankly, is the president of former president is now facing we're learning potentially even more legal peril at any moment. now there could be a possible indictment involving hush money payments to porn star stormy daniels. that of course, is the case that we're watching in manhattan because the grand jury will reconvene today. we're told that trump is preparing himself. for that to happen today, but not clear whether he's prepared for this sources now, say a federal judge overseeing the classified documents probe this is a different case. the documents found at mara lago has seen compelling evidence now that donald trump used his attorney to help further a crime. so the big question could that attorney now have to testify, plus federal reserve chair jerome powell just hours away now from the decision that is considered to be maybe the most significant of his career. will he decide to

raise interest rates again to fight inflation? and if he does , can he avoid the dreaded b word and the r word both at the same time? what are those words bailout and recession? thank you . my imagination. there was that was running him up. we will discuss and to colorado dentist has now been charged with killing his wife. the mother of his six children by poisoning her protein shake. we have new developments in that case as well, but we do begin this morning with cnn exclusive reporting. we are learning that emails between stormy daniels and one of trump's attorneys and his firm had been turned over to the manhattan district attorney. these emails from 2018 when daniels was looking for an attorney and reached out to joe tacopina, that night name sounds familiar. it's because he's been on tv he now represents. donald trump. current attorney tells us that his client shared confidential information about the case with tacopina to campinas role now on the trump legal team. poses a conflict of

interest. christian homes broke this story for us, and she's live this morning west palm beach, florida near mara lago, kristen, what more do we know about these communications and also the timing here? well according to stormy daniels attorney again, this is back in 2018 that she provided this confidential information. when she was seeking an attorney, she went back and forth in a number of emails with tacopina and with his firm, essentially answering questions, giving a level of detail that he thought should go under review. so he turned over these communications to the prosecutors, and now it is in the judge's hands to decide if this is going to amount to any sort of conflict of interest. and if it does, doesn't require some kind of disqualification for talk. subpoena or does it require some kind of limitation ? because you have to keep in mind this. could that information be used in this case and specifically, could it be used? potentially against daniels. if this goes to trial, and there's a cross examination could the information that she gave tacopina and his firm be

used against her in some capacity now, i will note that tacopina denies that there is any conflict of interest. he said he never spoke to her met stormy daniels, but i do want to point to one thing. this is on our own air. back in 2018. this is an interview. with don lemon . tacopina mentions stormy daniels. this is what he said. but i can't really talk about my impressions or any conversation we had because there is an attorney client privilege that attached even to a consultation. even to a consultation, obviously raising some questions here and again, it will be up to a judge to decide if this does amount to a conflict of interest. all right. we'll be watching for more on that christian. appreciate it. thank you. so now when it comes to this case of the classified documents, which were found at mara lago sources now telling cnn a federal judge has seen compelling evidence that donald trump may have used his attorney to help further a crime. the judge also ruled the prosecutors had shown trump shouldn't be able to use attorney crack client privilege to shield his

discussions with his lawyers with us now. cnn senior crime adjust for caitlin poland's caitlin just give us the actual news in this here what we learned about about what judge beryl howell said here. well what we're learning is the judge howl is agreeing with the justice department and the justice department has the goods or appears to have the goods that could force donald trump's lawyer, evan corcoran, to testify against him in the grand jury proceedings in the classified document investigation and that he could be saying something that could show that donald trump himself was trying to break the law commit a crime. potentially that's a really big deal. there's a lot of signs in this ongoing proceeding. we're watching now in the circuit court of appeals in d. c there's a lot of things that suggests that this really is the type of testimony that could make or break a case. the linchpin testimony and we are waiting to hear whether a federal appeals court is going to force even

corcoran to come back into the grand jury proceeding and give answers. the reason that we keep reporting on this is because we keep learning little tiny things that happened in this proceeding that was so crucial before the district judge last week, and this this new information really puts together this full timeline that evan corcoran had drafted a statement to the justice department, saying that they had searched for classified documents turned everything over the fbi then came in tomorrow, lago found more than 100 classified records, and so he has been trying to hold off having to say to the grand jury exactly what he and donald trump talked about. and so the court cited against trump and with the justice department, saying he did need to go answer the questions. say exactly what donald trump said to him. what advice he gave back to donald trump right now, the circuit court of appeals has put an unheard of deadline on this, and we are waiting for them to do something. the justice department did file a response

at six a.m. this morning, just hours after trump had gone to the appeals court. and do we know how quickly we could heal from here from the appeals court any minute now it's fully briefed. as they just waiting at this point. caitlin really appreciate it and appreciate the very understandable explainer. look there's a whole lot of any minute now is going on today in the legal world surrounding donald trump, which is why it's great that ellie hosting cnn's senior legal analyst, informal federal prosecutor is here with us led. i just want to start with this little bit of caitlin. poland's was just reported here. why it's so significant. i think you told me last week that in your entire legal career attorney client privilege was only pierced once one time in 14 years, one time in 14 years. that's the biggest, so that's how unusual this is in this new information that we received last night with judge howell. we knew that she had to have seen something in order to pierce that privilege, but now we know a little bit more than significant, really important about this is it answers the question. who is the liar here? or at least who does the justice department? think is the liar here? and the answer? now we

know is donald trump, and we know that the judge greed. so this goes back to when donald trump's team sent an affidavit affirmation to the justice department during the whole mara lago incident, saying, basically , we have given you all the classified documents and we've looked everywhere. that's everything. that was a lie. there were way more classified documents. and so the question is who in this chain of client, donald trump and then attorneys, including evan corcoran? who was the liar? doj went to this federal judge and said, we think trump is the liar. and they proved it by what's called a prima facie case, which is latin for on its face, not the same as beyond a reasonable doubt. big important difference there, john . but now we know that the judge has said yes, i find by by a prime official case that the one who lied here is donald trump. yes oh, just keep it looking at eric here. i guess it's just me talking to you, which was sitting it out any combination. i'm good. let's go is just standing by here. all right. so that is the documents case. meanwhile, you are here on a

very short leash because this indictment could be hand handed up today. it could be having to do with connections to the hush money payments. explain to me the process here. we think the grand jury meets on wednesdays. what could be happening behind the scenes right now? if this were to happen today, what's happening in any grand jury presentation? you come to a point where you've shown them all your evidence as a prosecutor, then you have to make a decision as a prosecutor, do, i now ask them for an indicted the vast majority of the time. the answer is yes. but alvin bragg will have to make that decision. if he wants to seek an indictment. then you go into the grand jury room. you give them a draft indictment. you walk the grand jurors through it. you say okay, proposed count one is this crime? here's the legal elements. this crime proposed count two on down the line. sometimes you give a summary, okay? just as a reminder, folks you've heard from michael cohen. you've heard from etcetera on down the line. here's what they told you. and then you leave the room and they vote and if they vote by a majority again lower standard here than beyond a

reasonable doubt. then you have an indictment. at that point. it is a sealed in diamond. we won't necessarily see it. we will not see it at that point. it's under seal. it's protected. it's not public goes over to the court, and then you arrange for the arraignment. the first appearance usually that's when the indictment is unsealed. but trump's team might know they've been indicted. they might even get a copy of that indictment from the prosecutors really up to prosecutors, so we're going to have to be in a react mode here. we should still say it may not happen at all. but if it were to be happening today, the process of the prosecutor going in speaking to the grand jury getting a vote. how long would that take? it could take an hour. it can take a half hour. it can be very, very quick. you just run through the indictment. if there's only two or three counts that takes five minutes. they vote. they may deliberate, but you're not talking about a trial jury deliberation, which can take days or weeks, which is why we say this could really happen any minute, which is why we're sort of waiting on pins and needles here very quickly. the cnn exclusive reporting on joe tacopina, who a lot of people know from television, is

a serious attorney who has had a lot of clients over the years. how problematic is this possible conflict of interest? so this actually happens not infrequently, where attorneys representing a client here donald trump, and it turns out he's also represented a witness in the past, right. the first question is, was there an attorney client relationship formed between joe tacopina and stormy daniels? i think the answer is yes. we just heard joe tacopina saying, yes. you don't have to have a formal contract. i hereby represent you in order to form that relationship. so the second question is, is it a conflict that we can deal with and what the court will probably do. i would say to donald trump. mr trump if he's the defendant, let's assume your lawyer joe tacopina used to represent somebody who can now be a witness against you. are you okay with that? usually the defendant will say yes, he's my lawyer. i want him as my lawyer. i wave it. it's fine. and then what the judge will often do is say okay, but tacopina, you are sealed off. you cannot cross examine stormy daniels, who you had an attorney client relationship with and you cannot use or disclose any information that she gave you. and then the courts really trust attorneys as

officers of the court to make good on that. thank you very much client. privileged explaining that ellie honing. thank you so much for explaining this also well, and i do apologize that you didn't get to talk to erica was supposed to be all jp that you were stuck with. you were gonna shut afterwards. wake up from now to this critical decision as we look at the fight against inflation so hours from now. we will learn if the fed chair has decided to hike interest rates again. and, of course, if that is a yes, the next question is by how much matt eagan joins us now, obviously, matt, this affects people. in so many ways, and it also be the first in most fulsome time that we've heard from the fed since all this banking turmoil. what are you expecting? john and erica. you know, the fed is walking a dangerous tightrope right now raising interest rates in the middle of the banking crisis of risk making the banking crisis worse, but doing nothing here means they could be letting inflation heat back up. i mean,

this really is one of the most challenging decisions in jerome powell's career. and it could really go a long way towards shaping his his legacy. now goldman sachs thinks that the fed is going to do nothing here. keep interest rates steady, trying to survey the damage in the banking industry, and that's what sheila bair things should happen to. but look at this over on wall street investors are actually coalescing around the idea that the fed is going to raise interest rates at last check about 85% chance that the fed raises rates by a quarter of a basis point. just 15% chance right now of no rate hike. and given those odds, there is a danger here that if the fed doesn't act today, if it doesn't raise rates, they could end up kind of spooking wall street. a lot of investors would worry that the fed looks scared and that the fed maybe know something that they don't so if the fed raises rates today, that means that rates will be the highest level since 2007 on that

chart. you can see that rates are going up rapidly. we haven't seen rates go up this fast and this short amount of time really , since the early 19 eighties under paul volcker. so what does all this mean for everyday americans? well higher borrowing costs. we've already seen mortgage rates go up to nearly the highest level in 20 years. the fed moves today they could go higher credit cards. it's never been more expense. pensive to have a balance. on your credit card, auto loans, student loans, all of them getting more expensive, and powell is also going to face questions today on this banking crisis. how much does he think that the stress in the banking industry is slowing the economy and also, how did regulators including the fed missed the red flags before these banks included. so a lot of tough questions today for fed chair jerome powell will be watching in parsing every syllable that comes out of his mouth today. thanks so much for being there for us. thank you. still to come here. explosive arguments in the courtroom

their favor now skipping a jury trial in the $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit, in the first day of the hearing was really only supposed to be one day as far as we knew the judges some pretty tough questions for fox's attorneys and also challenged some of their possible legal defense is cnn senior media reporter. oliver darcy joining me now, so there is more to come today. this went on for awhile yesterday. it wasn't supposed to theoretically go on and bleed into the second day, but it did , and now we're seeing them continue to make their arguments in court continue to try to bring these legal filings that they've submitted over the past few weeks and months to life in the court in front of this judge who's going to decide one way or another. fox has asked to be declared when declared the winner ahead of a trial. dominion has also asked to be declared the winner. either scenario is not super likely, but it's possible that judge could rule in some minor things . but what's been really interesting to watch. erica is how the judge has greeted some of fox's arguments in court and he's been quite skeptical at

times. at one point, he called foxes arguments intellectually dishonest. another point, he asked locked, he said. um how can you be fair if you are knowingly providing false information? and so it seems pretty clear that fox, at least in this in this hearing is not being greeted with the warmest arms. not exactly. no, definitely not a warm hug. that's for sure. it is fascinating to your point, the fact that it's bleeding into a second day, so more to come more to watch for today. oliver appreciate it. thank you. alright still ahead. poisoned protein shakes. that is how prosecutors say a colorado dentist killed his wife. we have details of this case next. what's the number one retinol brand used most by dermrmatologists. neutrogena rad wrinkle repair smooths the look of fine linenes in one week, dep wrinkles and four so you can kiss wrinkles. goodbye, neutrogena.

escalated, this chilling timeline begins march 4th. that's the day that police say james craig had arsenic delivered to his home. two days later, his wife, angela craig, went into the hospital. she had symptoms like dizziness. she had headaches. she had difficulty focusing her eyes. those according to police are all symptoms of arsenic poisoning. then you fast forward to later in the month between basically march 9th in march, 14th when police say james craig ordered potassium cyanide, a highly lethal chemical to his dental practice around that same time, angela craig was hospitalized for a second time. a few days after she was let out of the hospital. she returned to the hospital again last week. that was the third time she was hospitalized. she was complaining of the same symptoms. you guys she was complaining of dizziness, headaches. her body felt sluggish. it was not responding . she had difficulty focusing her eyes. police say again. these were all symptoms of poisoning from substances like arsenic, and so the last time

that she was admitted to the hospital. that was the third time she rapidly declined. she went into the hospital, she was put on a ventilator. and soon after that, she was basically declared medically brain dead. that was just last week, and in a matter of days, james craig was arrested. he is now facing charges for first degree murder , and police were able to bring this case so quickly, they say, basically in this affidavit because they found volumes of evidence. the search is on his computer again. some of these you mentioned, but we'll go through them again. things like undetectable poisons. how many grams of pure arsenic will kill a human how to make poison tap five undetectable poisons that show no signs of foul play. this overwhelming evidence convinced police to get james craig off the street. he is now behind bars. he's on no bond. as you mentioned he's going to be formally charged tomorrow. this is a really shocking case. it's rocked their community and then further, it's the personal details that make this case just so gut wrenching. james and angela craig were parents to six

children and what is perhaps one of the most piercing details in this affidavit comes basically the very end, john and erica police say that as angela craig lay dying in the hospital, james craig flew another woman to denver, a woman that he appeared to have an intimate relationship with and he according to police had apparently planned to start a new life with her. we've reached out to james craig's attorney, we have not yet heard back back to you. wow wow. i mean, what a case whitney wild. thank you so much for those details. this morning parts of california still reeling from yet another atmospheric river system, and it's not over yet. even more rain and snow are expected today before the storm system moves toward arizona and the rockies. california's utility company, pg and e says that the storm exceeded all expectations. heavily damaged electric infrastructure, and that means over 100,000 people are still in the dark. this morning 100,000 customers. cnn's stephanie elam joining us now,

so stephanie, these rainfall records broken yet again on tuesday. you guys can't catch a break in california. well you know what? erica? let's be happy. i have like, maybe or two windows here that it's not raining, so i don't have a hood on, so we're going to take it right. it's been raining a ton last night. it woke me up. it was so loud in los angeles and just to give you an idea of just how many records were broken, according to the national weather service in los angeles, five of those records for march 21st were broken yesterday. downtown los angeles, breaking a 130 year old record from 18 93 raining. approaching an inch and a half of rain. just just show you what is happening here. rebecca and san bernardino. you can look up here. you can see the clouds came in. okay, so it's not raining, but the clouds have come back into the fog, but the snow line is probably about 3 35 100 ft. up or so because i'm standing at 2500 ft, so still a lot of snow coming up in those higher regions, but

throughout the state, we saw people having hail. we saw trees falling. we saw that there was some flooding in some places all of this along here and just take a look over. here. there's a car coming down. i want you to see this car is coming down and you can see the people coming up from higher up in the mountains. they're coming down with snow on their cars. the difference this time between the last time i talked to you was the fact that they're actually able to make their cars down the road, but just to give you an idea of how much precipitation we have seen over this, um what season the southern sierra is at a record all time snowpack right now. the central part of the sierra is not far behind it. and overall, the state right now, it looks like it may be on track for another record here, so this is just an unfathomable fathomable amount of precipitation that we have received in california, especially when you consider last year we barely had any snow pack. so things are changing. um but, you know, happy spring, guys. you know what? the many things that i love about you,

stephanie elam. how about looking on the bright side there? no hood right now, and it's spring. it was a whole lot going on right there. going on. the most important thing is to see you and you look bright in spring and sunshiny too. so there's that. so thank you. i was trying to bring it to you know, off the ground brought it. you brought it, but you always do my friend stephanie. thank you. thank you. alright this hour. norfolk southern ceo will testify on capitol hill as lawmakers look to pass a rail safety bill in the wake of the toxic train derailment. that's ahead. the kennenedy center presents the mark twain prize for american humor celebrating adam sandler with special guests sunday at eight exclusively on cnn. wells fargo presenting sponsor of the kennedy center, mark twain prize, small to medium sized business, you may qualify for the employee retentionax credit up to $26,000 per employee. not alone . the money is yours if your

locomotives or the rail act. these bills call for imposing new safety standards and stiffer penalties for wrongdoing. ohio's governor says he supports it. and so should norfolk southern. out of those two bills. we all be able to get a bill that will will make a big big difference. uh, you know, i served many years in the house and the senate. i'm not going to get into the gory details about which version of the bill is better. but we just we need to change is, uh, i think either bill will do a good job. the pressure is on. governor dewine sent a letter to norfolk southern, saying it is our expectation that you will champion all good faith efforts to improve rail safety. and we are calling on you today to work with legislatures to ensure the best possible policy outcomes in these proposals. critics say the rail industry, as you know, has been against reforming the industry in the past during his prepared statements, norfolk southern ceo alan shaw is

expected to say today. he does support legislative efforts and that both bills quote include measures with the potential to enhance safety. ah, as you know, testified before congress earlier this month and in front of pennsylvania lawmakers, many in east palestine, not convinced with his testimony, saying that he was basically short on specifics when it comes to defining how exactly norfolk southern will deal with possible long term health effects. of the residents there, and also the economic impact on the members of the community is still a lot of unanswered questions for some folks. there it is palestine. unanswered questions. jason you've been asking for a beginning you reported from the ground. they're great to have you on the story again for us today. thank you. you bet. so we're this morning that another retail giant is shuttering some stores, bed bath and beyond his closing 400 locations. interesting. those stores, though not going to stay empty for very long. cnn's daniel myerson is joining us now, so we've talked a lot about the

changes about bed bath and beyond the fact that there are plenty of stores ready to move into those spaces is fascinating to me. right it's very surprising erica. these 400 bed bath and beyond stores. they're already in high demand, particularly among discount retailers that are growing. that's where we're seeing most of the growth in retail right now. so already companies like t . j. maxx homegoods ross stores , these discount clothing and home home goods retailers. they're scooping up these leases were we expect to see the budget gym chain planet fitness move into some of these stores burlington as well and the spaces are attractive because they're small, so companies don't have to pay as much for rent or labor, and they're also mostly in the suburbs. that's appealing to stores right now, and there hasn't been that much new retail development over the past decade, so there's kind of a scramble for these old bed bath and beyond stores. that is interesting. i'm actually a little surprised by that. so

glad that you're informing some of this alright, shifting gears here to inflation. i heard some stories this morning. ah about prices going up for people with pets. people do crazy things. i'm not judging. i'm not judging here crazy, not judging people who love their pets john things for their pets. but that kind of stuff is getting more expensive. it is john. so people treat their pets like they're they're like their children. early in the pandemic. there was a spike in pet adoptions about 23 million households adopted pets keep them company while they were stuck at home, but it's proving very costly to take care of those pets. that's um so we see pet food that's inflation on pet food has increased faster than on human food up about 15.2% in february from a year ago. we also see pet supplies up 11% and vet services of 10.5% so that's forcing some some tough decisions for pet owners. we're seeing people buy fewer toys for

their pets switch from the natural and organic pet foods to kind of the basics. and in some cases, folks or even having to return their pets to the shelters. and part of that's part of some people that that's financial, other people. it was a bad decision that they made the pandemic that they couldn't support them. i will say, though it makes me feel not better, but at least i don't. i'm not entirely going crazy when you show me that number because when i went to buy my dog, a new bag of dog food two weeks ago, i thought to myself, this has gone up exponentially since the last time i bought it, and i was buying it at the same store. so at least on this one point i'm not totally crazy. thank you want just the one there are a lot of other up for debate. so after 88 88 world cup wins, mikaela shiffrin has become the greatest alpine skier of all time. time ever. she joins us next. we're really excited. ever better disruptption hits y your supply chain and rider. make

record. and best of all. mikaela shiffrin joins us now. it's so great to see you. thanks for being here before we get into the real heavy stuff. that guy asking you those questions did did you know him? is that is that someone you've seen before? yeah that's my boyfriend. he races on the men's circuit, and , yeah, i hearing that. you know, you don't like the sound of your voice. that was just that's pretty embarrassing for me. it's pretty cute, though, to see you reviewed by him. i get i got so giggly and i couldn't think straight and he did such a good job. but you know so he's got a he's got a fallback career opinions. yeah he should probably stick with skiing a little bit longer, but he's he's quite good at that. um so you bring it in general, and in this case you brought all these trophies bring things places. this is kind of intimidating. what are we looking at here? we're looking at basically some of the some of the booty from a ridiculously successful year. overall grove is a kind of end

of the season overall title for most points accumulated through the season, so that this was actually my biggest goal this season was to win my fifth overall globe and, um, i did not expect that i would be re setting the all time wins record. honestly in my career, let alone this season, so that was it's not that it's a surprise. it's just like i never i feel like i was never supposed to be there. but this was what i had my sights set on. so um, that's kind of why we brought it in terms of saying never. you never thought you would be there. it wasn't something that was that you were working towards necessarily know. i just i feel like. this this kind of gold like the gold to be consistently strong throughout the season. that's always been more the most important thing to me, and i mean the winds record that it spends standing for 34 years like i mean, lindsay was

the one who bought the closest and that we all thought was going to break it, and i never considered myself as part of a threat to that record, so i've just kind of been trying to take it day by day. keep plugging away this season. i won 14 races but i thought i was like hoping to be able to scrape by winning about five because the competition level has gotten stronger and stronger over the especially the last year, so i'm walking away from this season with three world champs medals, three globes. overall globe. that's it spend? yeah. i mean the record not so bad. it's been okay. alright reasons i love watching. first of all, it's because you're a so good but be and we just saw a little bit of it there. you actually seem to enjoy it and enjoy winning, which i know sounds paradoxical for amazing athletes. but sometimes i get the sense that for great athletes, they don't enjoy winning as much as they

hate losing. you get what i'm saying right there and you really seem to get joy out of it. i mean, i like what you see here, the actual run i'm having on ski. the turns that i'm making that is the most fun feeling. it's such it's such an amazing feeling like as if you're flying and i like that feeling. i like skiing. that's kind of the whole that the passion comes from the fact that i just love the feeling doing the sport. so the winning like it's more of the turns. you make on the way to actually winning the waste versus the winning happens in the blink of an eye when you cross the finish line. and it's a little bit hard to comprehend, especially after 88 victories. it's like i don't really know what to do with this, but i really really liked the run that i just took. so it's i know it's a it is a little bit cliche. it's like the process, not the not the destination, whatever. but that is what i get the joy from, but i think it's also so great to hear and i look at young

athletes and even not it's right who look up to and adults, frankly, who who look up to you and i was reading a great piece with you in sports illustrated talking about how you really redefined success. and to me a lot of what that was. it was that it's okay to lose. it's okay to fail. and to put your name on that to me, that goes hand in hand with what you just said about this really being the process and the fact that you still love what you do. all of those things have to work together. yeah well, it's the only reason i'm still in the sport is because i love it, and there's been plenty of times throughout my career, especially over the last three years where i thought you know, maybe i'm not. fully motivated to keep doing this. um but i still get back to it because i keep like waking up every morning thinking i like if i just do this and tweak that or whatever. maybe i'll ski a little faster. that motivation has not left even on the good days. definitely not. but on the bad days, i still have the motivation to improve again and that has to be there. i mean, you're going to fail in life. you're going to do it either privately or publicly.

you're going to have bad days. probably i think for all of us, most of most of our time is kind of spent actually. like not achieving our goals. and then you have a couple of moments here and there throughout life where you achieve it, and that makes all the work worth it. but i just i don't know about how you guys feel about it. but you don't like just go through life being successful. everyday struggles that makes everything interesting. yeah and you have to be passionate in order to stick stick to things. i guess that's what i've can't wait to see what's next. what do you do next? it's so great having you here and congratulations on everything. thanks. come back anytime. thank you. you okay? what you wish for? still ahead here, gwyneth paltrow back in court today after an alleged skiing hit and run incident with a man that man says it left him with serious injuries. those details next. you know if you wewere cash back, and you can tn

her legal fees paid. terry sanderson this retired optometrist. he says that in 2016 was skiing and deer valley, utah that gwyneth paltrow barreled into him while recklessly skiing, causing him to fall down, suffered broken ribs, a brain injury now, gwyneth paltrow saying that is not what happened? he skied into me. i was downhill on the mountain. he was above me. they were on beginner's slope. she was skiing with her children. her now husband, brad feld check and they are expected to testify on her behalf. and so also, i do want to point out that this man terry was originally suing her for 3.1 million, and now he's lowered that to about 300,000, which is, you know, raise some questions from some people following this. it does. i have to say that stood out to me and then i'm very curious to see the testimony because, as i learned, i only recently started skiing. but one of the first things that i was told was the uphill skier has to look out for the downhill skiers. if you run into them,

the thinking on the mountain is right. the skiers etiquette is that's your fault, because they can't see you behind them. so be interesting to see as we hear these different sides. so look, i mean, there are no cameras right? there's only this witness testimony of a man that was with terry, a friend of his saying, yes, gwyneth paltrow was the one that barreled into him. and now gwyneth team and her family and we expect our children to say no. he's getting into her. so where is this going to land? it's going to be up to the jury, right? but gwyneth many people are wondering if she's going to testify, and that's what we are looking out. for. if we're going to see that this week, yes loss, thank you very much. thanks to all of you for joining us today. i'm erica hill. and i'm john berman at this arrow with kate baldwin starts. right now. hello everyone at this hour, the federal reserve's big day to raise or to hold and what are the ripple effects from all of that, plus new moves in separate investigations into former president trump with eyes on a
