CNN
About this episode

Trump files his response to the DOJ's blockbuster brief, saying classified material "was to be fully anticipated" in presidential records found at Mar-a-Lago. The panel discusses the credibility of Trump’s latest defense strategy, and the disagreement between the former president’s legal team and the DOJ on the level of cooperation seen in returning the classified documents.

Former Trump White House Acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney tells CNN Tonight how he’s unimpressed by Trump’s “Clown show legal representation”, and how the former president is becoming “more and more of an issue” for the GOP. Plus, Mississippi's capital is without safe water for a third day, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin loses her bid to fill the Alaska House seat, and tennis star Serena Williams advances to the third round of the U.S. open.

Hosted by Victor Blackwell.
