00:00:30.000 Good morning, everyone.
00:00:34.020 I'm Megyn Kelly.
00:00:34.960 It's Tuesday, February 24th, 2026.
00:00:37.800 And this is your AM Update.
00:00:39.620 Right, talking about the lowest Trump has ever been going into the State of the Union.
00:00:42.980 President Trump heading into tonight's high-stakes State of the Union address
00:00:46.780 amid some troubling poll numbers.
00:00:48.880 Their stories were censored and suppressed like maybe almost never before.
00:00:56.180 President Trump honors the families of Americans killed by illegal immigrants.
00:01:00.000 A federal judge blasting former special counsel Jack Smith
00:01:03.620 in an order blocking the release of his classified documents report on the president.
00:01:08.900 And opening arguments begin in the trial of Corey Richens,
00:01:12.300 the mother who published a children's book to help her sons cope with the loss of their father,
00:01:17.840 only to be later arrested and charged with his murder.
00:01:21.540 All that and more coming up in just a moment on your AM Update.
00:01:24.500 Our sponsor, the Electronic Payments Coalition, says Washington politicians are always getting in your wallet
00:01:33.960 and now they're messing with your credit card.
00:01:36.300 They say your credit card and the security offers are under attack
00:01:39.760 and that Senators Dick Durbin and Roger Marshall want to change the nation's payment system
00:01:44.320 to benefit corporate megastores like Walmart and Target at the expense of everyday Americans.
00:01:49.340 Credit cards can keep your payments secure and provide rewards that families use
00:01:53.860 to help make everyday purchases more affordable.
00:01:56.540 The Electronic Payments Coalition says the Durbin-Marshall mandates
00:01:59.380 would let corporate megastores cut corners on credit card processing,
00:02:03.180 routing transactions over cheaper, untested networks
00:02:05.960 with weaker security and fewer protections.

00:02:11.420 and consider telling Congress to guard your card.
00:02:14.340 The State of the Union addresses tonight
00:02:18.660 and the president heads into it amid sliding approval ratings.
00:02:22.680 According to a new CNN poll released yesterday,
00:02:25.340 just 36% of respondents say they approve of the way Mr. Trump is handling his job as president.
00:02:31.800 63% disapprove.
00:02:34.140 This marking a steep drop from last year's lead-up to Mr. Trump's joint address to Congress.
00:02:38.780 His approval rating then, after just a few weeks in office, at 48% in a CNN poll.
00:02:45.420 Asked about the direction of the country,
00:02:46.980 just 38% of surveyed adults this week
00:02:50.460 say Mr. Trump's policies are moving the U.S. in the right direction.
00:02:54.720 61% say we're headed in the wrong one.
00:02:58.100 As the president prepares to address the nation tonight,
00:03:00.800 57% of respondents say the economy and cost of living
00:03:04.660 is the top issue they want him to address.
00:03:07.400 trailing way behind in second place,
00:03:10.740 immigration at just 13%.
00:03:12.960 The state of U.S. democracy at 11%,
00:03:15.840 health care at 7%,
00:03:17.780 crime and safety and foreign policy all lagging far behind.
00:03:21.800 CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten says
00:03:24.300 the biggest driver of the slide
00:03:26.140 is the president's collapse with independence.
00:03:29.260 What is driving this drop?
00:03:31.160 I said record was the name of the game when it came to this segment, right?
00:03:35.260 Talking about the lowest Trump has ever been going into the State of the Union.
00:03:38.120 The lowest that any president has been this century
00:03:41.420 going into a State of the Union at this point in their presidency.
00:03:44.000 It is also the weakest that Donald Trump has ever been with independence.
00:03:49.080 At this point, a year ago, Donald Trump was at minus 13 points.
00:03:52.760 Look at this.
00:03:54.120 Minus 47 points among independents.
00:03:57.980 The lowest Donald Trump has ever been in either of his two terms
00:04:01.580 as president with independence.
00:04:03.440 That is driving these numbers.
00:04:05.480 Meanwhile, the president not faring much better
00:04:07.440 in new polling done jointly by The Washington Post and ABC News.
00:04:11.760 That survey showing 39% approval versus 60% disapproval.
00:04:16.660 Mr. Trump's highest disapproval rating
00:04:18.320 since the days after the January 6th Capitol riot.
00:04:21.940 Breaking it down by issue,
00:04:23.240 just 41% say they approve of the president's handling of the economy.
00:04:27.760 57% disapprove.
00:04:29.380 On immigration, 40% approve versus 58% who disapprove.
00:04:34.720 On tariffs, 34% approve versus 64% who do not.
00:04:39.480 While the numbers for President Trump look rough,
00:04:41.680 Democrats in Congress hardly benefiting.
00:04:44.560 On immigration, in the news these past couple of months
00:04:47.120 with nonstop negative coverage for the president,
00:04:50.300 38% of registered voters say they trust President Trump more.
00:04:54.840 34% prefer Democrats on this issue,
00:04:57.820 with 24% saying neither.
00:05:00.840 On reducing the cost of living, it's essentially a tie.
00:05:03.600 32% trust President Trump more.
00:05:05.780 31% prefer Democrats.
00:05:07.900 33% say they trust neither.
00:05:10.440 As President Trump makes the case tonight for his administration,
00:05:13.900 some Democrats preparing to boycott the event altogether.
00:05:17.020 U.S. Senator from California Adam Schiff announcing in a Saturday social media video
00:05:22.340 that he will not be in attendance.
00:05:24.860 I will not be attending the State of the Union.
00:05:27.300 I've never missed one.
00:05:28.880 I have always gone both to inaugurations and to States of the Union.
00:05:33.120 But we cannot treat this as normal.
00:05:35.580 This is not business as usual.
00:05:37.220 I will not give him the audience.
00:05:38.880 He craves for the lies that he tells.
00:05:40.940 Okay, Mr. Schiff instead will participate in an alternate event
00:05:45.280 outside of the Capitol building,
00:05:47.080 hosted by left-wing groups MidasTouch and MoveOn.org.
00:05:51.540 Several other Democrat lawmakers also planning to skip the State of the Union,
00:05:55.900 including Senators Chris Murphy of Connecticut,
00:05:58.120 Ed Markey of Massachusetts,
00:05:59.800 Chris Van Hollen of Maryland,
00:06:01.180 and Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal of Washington.
00:06:04.440 Set to deliver the Democrat response to the president's remarks,
00:06:07.440 newly elected Virginia governor, Abigail Spanberger.
00:06:11.700 You know, the one who stood silent for what felt like forever
00:06:14.580 when asked in her gubernatorial debate about boys' and girls' locker rooms,
00:06:19.240 and also when her attorney general,
00:06:21.080 who wanted Republicans and their children, murdered.
00:06:24.020 Not a peep back then.
00:06:26.060 Now, she's feeling chatty.
00:06:28.240 President Trump's full list of special guests not yet announced.
00:06:32.040 The gold-winning U.S. men's hockey team is expected.
00:06:35.080 The gold-winning women's team is not.
00:06:38.080 A U.S. hockey spokesperson telling NBC the women are unable to attend,
00:06:41.820 quote,
00:06:42.420 due to the timing and previously scheduled academic and professional commitments,
00:06:46.700 the ladies adding they were honored to be included
00:06:49.080 and are grateful for the acknowledgement.
00:06:51.720 House Speaker Mike Johnson telling reporters yesterday
00:06:53.860 that House officials are scrambling to find a place for the beloved men's team
00:06:57.860 following their last-minute invite from President Trump
00:07:00.620 moments after they beat Canada in Milan.
00:07:03.240 The remarks set to begin at 9 p.m. Eastern.
00:07:08.060 President Trump declaring yesterday National Angel Family Day,
00:07:12.260 the White House event attended by dozens of family members
00:07:14.700 whose loved ones have been killed by illegal immigrants.
00:07:18.440 Mr. Trump maintaining a long-standing bond with angel families,
00:07:22.040 dating back to his first administration,
00:07:24.260 frequently meeting privately with families at the White House
00:07:26.540 and highlighting their stories
00:07:27.960 as the administration pushes for tougher immigration enforcement
00:07:31.300 and mass deportations.
00:07:33.620 Here are the president welcoming the families
00:07:35.540 and accusing the establishment media and the left
00:07:38.340 of totally ignoring their stories.
00:07:41.480 These are the angel families that we love,
00:07:44.900 that for decades our government betrayed,
00:07:47.800 and our media totally ignored, and I've seen it.
00:07:50.000 When I first got involved with the angel families,
00:07:53.900 I had a meeting, it was so sad, and they got up and spoke,
00:07:56.960 and the media literally just turned off the cameras.
00:07:59.240 They didn't want to hear them.
00:07:59.960 It was my first glimpse as to what was happening.
00:08:02.940 These are sick people, an infinite loss.
00:08:06.320 They were the victims of politicians who put the comfort of foreign criminals
00:08:11.280 before the safety of American citizens and American patriots.
00:08:14.800 Their stories were censored and suppressed like maybe almost never before
00:08:22.160 so that the politicians could open our borders
00:08:25.040 and allow our nation to be invaded.
00:08:28.360 If we didn't win the election, our nation would right now be destroyed.
00:08:32.360 President Trump choosing to sign the proclamation on February 22nd
00:08:35.840 in honor of Lakin Riley,
00:08:37.960 the 22-year-old Augusta University nursing student
00:08:41.140 murdered on that date two years ago during a morning jog
00:08:44.860 by illegal immigrant Jose Ibarra.
00:08:47.900 Ibarra had multiple run-ins with the law released each time
00:08:51.220 before eventually going on to murder Lakin.
00:08:54.440 Her death, along with similar cases,
00:08:56.400 emerging as a central issue in the 2024 campaign,
00:08:59.680 leading to the first piece of legislation
00:09:01.340 signed under the second Trump administration,
00:09:04.060 the Lakin-Riley Act,
00:09:05.540 requiring the Department of Homeland Security
00:09:07.400 to detain illegal immigrants arrested for certain violent crimes.
00:09:12.280 Lakin's mother, Allison Phillips, invited to speak yesterday.
00:09:16.160 If you've lived the nightmare that we have lived,
00:09:18.780 you understand the importance of the job that he's doing
00:09:21.480 and securing our nation and fighting for our families
00:09:25.580 because this could be any family.
00:09:28.540 She wasn't somebody that put herself in bad positions.
00:09:31.540 She didn't make bad choices.
00:09:32.940 She was just a good girl.
00:09:36.100 And she just wanted to go for a run that morning.
00:09:39.020 I'm beyond blessed and thankful that you're honoring
00:09:42.620 not just Lakin because she's one in a ton of people
00:09:47.180 that have suffered at the hands of illegal immigrants.
00:09:50.440 She's not the only one.
00:09:52.520 And so thank you for honoring all of them, not just Lakin.
00:09:55.320 Coming up, a federal judge slamming
00:09:59.540 former special counsel Jack Smith
00:10:01.200 in an order blocking the release of his report
00:10:03.680 on President Trump's classified documents case.
00:10:07.040 And opening arguments begin in the trial of Corey Richens,
00:10:10.760 the woman who published a book to help her children
00:10:13.180 process the grief of losing their father,
00:10:16.040 only to then be arrested for allegedly poisoning him herself.
00:10:19.640 Ever been in a bad relationship?
00:10:28.800 You know, the kind, it just wears you down.
00:10:31.020 You settle in, even though deep down, you know,
00:10:33.140 this is not how it's supposed to be.
00:10:34.900 That's what daily aches and pains can feel like.
00:10:37.240 You stop expecting to feel good.
00:10:39.400 You start thinking, maybe this is just life now,
00:10:41.760 but it doesn't have to be.
00:10:43.300 With Relief Factor, you can break up with pain,
00:10:45.500 just like Anthony did.
00:10:46.860 He wrote, quote,
00:10:47.560 I was dealing with debilitating pain and fatigue.
00:10:50.440 I've been talking about Relief Factor
00:10:51.920 and taking it for about two months.
00:10:53.900 And now I'm back to running my business,
00:10:55.680 fishing, gardening, and doing the things
00:10:57.140 that really matter to me.
00:10:58.580 And listen, maybe it's your back pain,
00:11:00.740 your knee issues, or stiffness that's slowing you down.

00:11:24.040 In a major victory for President Trump,
00:11:26.620 U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon
00:11:28.440 blocking the release of former Special Counsel
00:11:31.000 Jack Smith's report
00:11:32.520 detailing his prosecution of Mr. Trump
00:11:35.180 over the handling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
00:11:39.020 President Trump and his co-defendants,
00:11:40.740 Walt Nada and Carlos D. Oliveira,
00:11:43.000 first moving to block the report's release
00:11:45.520 back in January 2025 upon learning of its creation.
00:11:49.820 On Monday, Judge Cannon, a Trump appointee,
00:11:52.580 prohibiting the DOJ from, quote,
00:11:54.280 releasing, distributing, conveying,
00:11:56.320 or sharing with anyone outside the Department of Justice
00:11:58.900 any information or conclusions
00:12:01.120 in the report or in drafts thereof.
00:12:03.780 In July 2024, Judge Cannon,
00:12:06.660 of the Southern District of Florida,
00:12:08.680 tossing out Smith's case against Mr. Trump
00:12:11.020 and two co-defendants, finding Smith
00:12:13.260 was improperly appointed.
00:12:15.660 Judge Cannon's 15-page ruling yesterday
00:12:17.920 slamming Smith for, after his disqualification,
00:12:21.540 compiling and delivering the report
00:12:23.320 to Attorney General Merrick Garland
00:12:25.040 after the case was thrown out,
00:12:27.040 accusing Smith of circumventing the court's order.
00:12:30.400 Judge Cannon writing the release of this report
00:12:32.340 would, quote,
00:12:33.200 cause irreparable damage to the former defendants
00:12:35.740 by disclosing non-public discovery materials,
00:12:38.440 adding it would violate, quote,
00:12:40.440 basic notions of fairness and justice in the process
00:12:42.980 where no adjudication of guilt has been reached.
00:12:46.340 Judge Cannon writing that while in cases
00:12:48.220 where a defendant pleads guilty
00:12:49.940 or where the prosecutor elects not to bring charges,
00:12:53.680 sometimes a special counsel will release a final report,
00:12:57.500 it is, quote,
00:12:58.080 certainly not customary for a prosecutor
00:13:00.320 to disseminate large swaths of discovery
00:13:02.960 after a case is dismissed
00:13:04.620 without finding the defendant guilty
00:13:06.300 and where the defendants still maintain their innocence.
00:13:10.180 Smith submitting the report
00:13:11.520 to Attorney General Merrick Garland
00:13:12.900 before vacating his post in January 2025.
00:13:17.020 Volume one of the report
00:13:18.280 was focused on Smith's investigation
00:13:20.180 into alleged attempts by Mr. Trump
00:13:22.320 to overturn the 2020 election.
00:13:24.840 Smith managed to spring that one on the public
00:13:27.400 days before President Trump's inauguration.
00:13:30.340 Volume two focuses more
00:13:31.820 on the classified documents case.
00:13:34.160 On that, Judge Cannon telling Smith,
00:13:36.300 nice try, but no cigar.
00:13:39.820 Opening statements yesterday
00:13:41.260 in the trial of Utah mother,
00:13:42.820 Corey Richens,
00:13:44.000 accused of fatally poisoning her husband, Eric,
00:13:46.540 in March 2022.
00:13:48.800 Summit County prosecutors
00:13:49.900 charging the 35-year-old more than a year later
00:13:52.480 with aggravated murder,
00:13:54.280 attempted aggravated murder,
00:13:55.800 mortgage fraud, and forgery,
00:13:57.700 alleging she spiked her husband's Moscow mule cocktail
00:14:00.900 with nearly five times a lethal dose of fentanyl
00:14:04.140 at their home near Park City.
00:14:06.620 The state alleging Corey killed her husband
00:14:08.300 to gain access to his business assets
00:14:10.200 and life insurance payouts.
00:14:12.140 Money prosecutors say she intended to use
00:14:14.220 to save her indebted real estate business.
00:14:17.100 The case drawing national attention
00:14:18.520 when authorities arrested Richens
00:14:20.240 just weeks after she published
00:14:21.940 a children's book she wrote,
00:14:23.780 which she says she wrote to help her
00:14:25.720 three young sons cope with their grief
00:14:27.840 after the loss of their father.
00:14:30.460 Corey held in custody since her arrest,
00:14:32.300 denied bail multiple times.
00:14:34.800 In court yesterday,
00:14:35.560 during opening statements,
00:14:36.660 prosecutor Brad Bloodworth
00:14:38.040 telling jurors Corey was involved
00:14:40.140 in a relationship with another man,
00:14:42.140 Robert Josh Grossman.
00:14:43.920 Bloodworth showing the jury text messages
00:14:45.820 between the two,
00:14:47.060 Corey fantasizing about leaving her husband,
00:14:49.660 gaining millions in the divorce,
00:14:51.300 and then marrying Grossman.
00:14:53.300 Court documents indicating Corey
00:14:54.800 took out multiple life insurance policies,
00:14:57.440 totaling about $2 million on her husband
00:14:59.700 without his knowledge.
00:15:01.840 According to Bloodworth,
00:15:02.820 Corey was allegedly $4.5 million in debt
00:15:05.660 and wrongly believed she would inherit $4 million
00:15:08.460 upon her husband's passing.
00:15:10.980 Bloodworth laying out the timeline
00:15:12.340 on the night of Eric's death.
00:15:14.200 March the 3rd, 2022,
00:15:17.740 the defendant, Corey Richens,

00:15:25.940 seven-year-old Ashton,
00:15:28.440 and five-year-old Weston

00:15:42.080 Robert Josh Grossman,
00:15:44.920 texts Corey Richens
00:15:46.380 an image of two people romantically kissing.
00:15:49.580 The image is captioned,
00:15:51.400 love you.
00:15:51.820 At 8.36,
00:15:54.480 Corey Richens replies,
00:15:56.340 love you.
00:15:57.340 The boys go to bed.
00:15:59.100 Corey Richens makes Eric a drink
00:16:01.320 and takes it to him in their bedroom.
00:16:04.180 He drinks on the bed.
00:16:06.200 She departs the bedroom.
00:16:07.940 Corey Richens returns to the bedroom
00:16:09.700 at about 3 o'clock a.m.
00:16:12.760 She feels that Eric is cold.
00:16:15.260 She nudges him.
00:16:16.960 He does not respond.
00:16:19.280 Defense attorney Catherine Nestor
00:16:20.560 beginning her argument
00:16:21.640 with 911 audio from that night.
00:16:24.480 911,
00:16:25.120 address of the emergency.
00:16:28.100 My hands are so breathing.
00:16:30.120 She's cold.
00:16:31.320 Can you do CPR?
00:16:32.800 No.
00:16:33.820 I don't know.
00:16:35.100 You don't know?
00:16:35.920 I'm going to tell you how to.
00:16:36.880 Are you willing to do CPR?
00:16:38.780 Yes.
00:16:39.960 Those were the sounds
00:16:41.000 of a wife
00:16:42.420 becoming a widow.
00:16:44.940 Nestor pointing to a key
00:16:46.080 unanswered question in the case.
00:16:47.860 He ingested a fatal dose
00:16:50.580 of fentanyl.
00:16:52.100 What you will never hear
00:16:53.900 after four years
00:16:56.780 of investigation,
00:16:58.400 where as recently
00:16:59.660 as two weeks ago
00:17:01.060 they were back searching
00:17:02.100 that house.
00:17:03.060 After four years
00:17:04.440 of investigation
00:17:05.440 and five weeks
00:17:07.420 of this trial,
00:17:08.600 you know what you're never
00:17:09.480 going to hear?
00:17:10.180 is how that fentanyl
00:17:11.980 got inside of him
00:17:12.980 because there is
00:17:14.360 zero evidence of that.
00:17:16.240 To this day,
00:17:17.560 slide 11 please,
00:17:19.280 you're going to see
00:17:20.180 that his death certificate
00:17:21.480 reads
00:17:22.200 that the manner
00:17:23.640 of his death
00:17:24.580 is still unknown
00:17:27.420 to this day.
00:17:29.100 You're going to hear
00:17:29.720 testimony that a medical examiner
00:17:31.560 has the ability
00:17:32.400 to declare
00:17:33.160 the manner
00:17:34.020 of someone's death.
00:17:34.780 It can be homicide,
00:17:36.580 it can be suicide,
00:17:37.820 it can be accidental overdose,
00:17:40.000 it can be murder,
00:17:43.160 it can be anything.
00:17:45.120 To this day,
00:17:45.960 the medical examiner,
00:17:47.280 the professional
00:17:47.900 that's the head
00:17:48.660 of declaring
00:17:49.120 how people die
00:17:49.840 in the state of Utah
00:17:50.640 has never been able
00:17:51.720 to determine
00:17:52.380 the manner
00:17:53.340 of Eric Richen's death.
00:17:55.420 Nestor telling jurors
00:17:56.420 that Eric was dependent
00:17:57.560 on drugs
00:17:58.280 like marijuana gummies
00:17:59.680 to relieve pain,
00:18:01.120 pointing to a crime scene
00:18:02.160 photo showing
00:18:02.820 an empty expired
00:18:03.920 hydrocodone bottle
00:18:05.140 in the couple's bedroom.
00:18:07.060 Nestor also happens
00:18:07.960 to be the attorney
00:18:08.580 for Tyler Robinson,
00:18:10.020 the accused killer
00:18:10.760 of Charlie Kirk.
00:18:12.500 Prosecutors calling
00:18:13.300 Eric's sister,
00:18:14.380 Katie Richens Benson,
00:18:15.620 to the stand
00:18:16.180 the first day
00:18:16.960 of the trial.
00:18:18.260 Benson describing
00:18:18.980 what she believed
00:18:19.960 to be unusual behavior
00:18:21.500 from her sister-in-law
00:18:22.660 on the night
00:18:23.580 of Eric's death.
00:18:24.660 Who was there
00:18:25.180 when you arrived?
00:18:26.360 Sorry, guys.
00:18:28.020 This was the worst
00:18:29.120 in my life.
00:18:30.140 I'm sorry.
00:18:31.460 When I got there,
00:18:32.280 there was a bunch
00:18:32.900 of emergency personnel,
00:18:35.060 police officers,
00:18:36.340 and Corey and her mom,
00:18:38.080 Lisa, were there.
00:18:40.340 And I saw Corey
00:18:41.420 standing on the other
00:18:42.300 side of the staircase.
00:18:44.360 She just shook
00:18:45.280 her head at me.
00:18:46.680 I observed that she was,
00:18:48.100 she was not how she
00:18:50.220 normally was
00:18:51.520 when we would go
00:18:53.140 on overnights.
00:18:54.840 She was very well
00:18:56.000 put together.
00:18:57.120 She had a matching
00:18:58.220 pajama-esque outfit on.
00:19:01.100 Her hair was all
00:19:02.560 done up.
00:19:03.820 She wasn't crying
00:19:04.900 like I was.
00:19:05.680 She wasn't hysterical.
00:19:07.760 Just stood there
00:19:09.060 and shook her head
00:19:10.000 no at me.
00:19:11.180 On cross,
00:19:11.940 Benson admitting
00:19:12.660 that her brother
00:19:13.360 had previously
00:19:14.120 been prescribed
00:19:14.860 hydrocodone,
00:19:16.000 had used THC,
00:19:17.380 and drank alcohol
00:19:18.540 socially.
00:19:19.680 If convicted,
00:19:20.460 Richens could face
00:19:21.260 a maximum of life
00:19:22.420 in prison.
00:19:23.340 She has pleaded
00:19:23.940 not guilty
00:19:24.740 on all counts.
