Trump’s Legal Team Is Enmeshed in a Tangle of Possible Conflicts

Former President Trump’s cast of lawyers is marked by a web of overlapping interests encompassing witnesses, co-defendants and potential targets.

The Los Angeles Times leads with the Obama administration announcing a plan to send hundreds of federal agents and intelligence analysts to the country's southern border to help combat Mexican drug-related violence and prevent it from seeping into the United States. It marks "the most determined U.S. effort in years to counter the powerful and dangerous cartels" that are enmeshed in a deadly battle with the Mexican government that has already killed more than 7,000 people over the last 15 months.
