This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local.
News, beautiful sunshine, and forty eight degrees in Boston. It's eleven o'clock on this Tuesday morning. I'm Sherry Small. Thanks for being with us. Here's what's happening. The Karen Reid case is back in Norfolk Superior Court today for what should be the final pre trial hearing before jury selection begins in one week. What was supposed to be the
final hearing last week ended with unfinished business. Prosecutors want to bring in more evidence from a documentary and text messages from Reed's phone, saying it will help them prove that Red is guilty in the twenty twenty two death of her boyfriend, Boston Police officer John O'Keefe. The prosecution also asking the judge for a more elaborate jury questionnaire, saying it is going to be difficult to find an impartial jury because of the massive publicity surrounding the case.
The defense is still waiting on an appeal to get too of the charges dismissed. The Trump administration continues its legal battle over the deportation of hundreds of Venezuelan migrants. ABC's Christian Cordero reports.
The Trump administration has invoked the so called state secrets privilege, trying to stop Judge James Bosburg from asking any more questions about how President Trump used a wartime power to deport hundreds of Venezuelan migrants. Judge Boseburg did not immediately respond to last night's legal filing, which could allow the White House to block the use of evidence in court.
Boseburg is considering whether the administration defied his ruling earlier this month when he ordered planes carrying the migrants to turn around. Those planes kept flying to El Salvador.
And meanwhile, a different federal judge claimed the Nazis received better treatment during World War II than the Venezuelan migrants did by the Trump administration. A major national security blunder officials in the Trump administration mistakenly share war plans with Jeffrey Goldberg, editor in chief of the Atlantic. The information included classified details ahead of a US attack in Yemen. Goldberg spoke about it on CNN.
Goldberg did not quote from that text in his article, saying hecksets shared operational details of forthcoming strikes.
When targets were going to be targeted. How they were going to be targeted. Who was at the targets. I didn't publish this and I continue not to publish it because it felt like it was too confidential.
The White House says the chat appears to be an authentic message chain, but Hegseth last night attacked Goldberg's credibility, insisting no war plans were sent over the messaging app.
And that's ABC's Lionel Moyes reporting the nation's top intelligence officials are currently testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee, and you can bet they're expected to be grilled about the leak. Looks like we're just going to see a mix of sun and clouds. Today. It'll turn breezy, but we'll see highs over fifty. Fifty two is the high. Turning out
mostly cloudy Tonight. We'll see low's thirty in some of those colder northwest suburbs in the city though, thirty six, and there could be a little rain late at night and Wednesday morning on the Cape and the islands. Wednesday overall rather cloudy, A spody shower will bump back down into the high forties. Thursday. Again, we don't make it out of the high forties, but at least it's dry, partly sunny. Right now, it's sunny all the way, forty
eight degrees in Boston at eleven five. A beautiful sunshine out there, all right. Back to news now, Trans people exist and they just deserve basic dignity. That's a message that protesters are bringing to the Mochlely Federal Courthouse in Boston, where hearing is underway an a legal fight that's brought
by the ACLU of Massachusetts. They want to stop the state Department's policy of refusing to issue passports that accurately reflect the gender identity of transgender and non binary americapkins. Olivia Santora is with the ACLU.
You know, this is a concerted attempt by the federal administration to try and erase trans people and their identities. And you know, through our core case and also through this walk that we're doing here today in solidarity, we're trying to demonstrate that, you know, no president, no executive order cannot race trans people and who they are.
And she says, everyone regardless of gender identity, deserve to have documents that reflect who they are. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has a high profile TV appearance tonight, we get that from wbz's Drumholland.
Mayor Michelle Wu will be a guest on tonight's The Daily Show on Comedy Central. Of course, the mayor's appearance comes a couple of weeks after her defense of Boston's stance to protect immigrants in the city, and will be the first appearance since borders our Tom Holman came to Boston in a five day sweep that ended with three
hundred and seventy immigrants in custody. Homan and many in President Trump's White House have gone after Mayor Woo and Governor Heay for supporting sanctuary policies, something mayor who defended in Washington.
I am here to make sure that the city at Boston is safe.
Others may want to bring how we are here to bring peace to cities everywhere. And tonight to The Daily Show, Drew moholland WZ Boston's news radio.
