we know allan weisselberg testified already in that investigation. one of the things he told letitia james and her team is trump's apartment was overvalued by give or take $200 million. weisselberg could be an important witness if james brings a lawsuit against the trump organization with respect to misrepresentations and omissions in the financial statement through which they obtained bank loans, insurance policies, several tax benefits up to $5 million for the former president personally. >> wow, lots of info there. glenn, last word here. quickly, do you concur with all that lisa has said? is there any incentive for allan wise wiesel burg to work with the manhattan d.a. on anything she may bring forward? >> i absolutely agree with lisa in theory. once someone pleads guilty, they can be compelled to testify. what they can't be compelled to do is tell the truth. allan weisselberg took what i call a soldier's plea. i've tried to flip co-conspirators against a bigger fish and they said no, i'm pleading guilty and not cooperating. i don't think that bode

his company's former bookkeeper, allan weisselberg is expected to plead guilty in manhattan and agree to help prosecutors in their pursuit of possible tax violations in the trump organization. that's all today. this is different than the new york state attorney general's investigation. these are probably worth listing out. i mentioned the manhattan district attorney's case. there's the january 6th investigation, of course, by congress. the georgia grand jury investigation, this is a criminal investigation into whether trump's team tried to overturn georgia's election. then there's the fbi search of mar-a-lago under the auspices of the espionage act. the espionage act is the legal basis for the search. now, in that case the mar-a-lago case, trump's lawyers and the department of justice will be fighting in court over whether a judge should release the details of the affidavit that led up to that search. trump's lawyers want it publicized even if there's damaging information. the doj says the affidavit is part of an ongoing investigation into national security. many trump followers have

his company's former bookkeeper, allan weisselberg is expected to plead in manhattan today and agree to help prosecutors in their pursuit of possible tax violations in the trump organization. now, that is different than the new york state attorney general's investigation. it is probably worth listing these out. so you have the manhattan d.a. letitia james, the new york attorney general looking into whether the trump organization fraudulently misvalued properties to get loans or save on taxes. this is a civil case. then there's the january 6th select committee investigation by congress, the georgia grand jury criminal investigation, whether trump's team tried to overturn georgia's election. and then there's the fbi search of mar-a-lago under the auspices of the espionage act. trump has not been accused of violating the espionage act. that's the legal basis for the search. >>> now, in that case, the mar-a-lago case trump's lawyers and the department of justice will be fighting in court over whether a judge should release the details of the affidavit that led to the search. trump's lawy

in new york, spot lines on the trump organization, chief financial officer allan weisselberg is expected to plead gil guilty in a tax fraud case and here in d.c., the committee investigating the capitol riot could one day have a new star witness. former vice president mike pence. >> if there was an invitation to participate, i would consider it i would have to reflect on the unique role i was serving in as vice president the american people have a right to know. >> reporter: and in atlanta, mr. trump's former attorney, rudy giuliani testified before a federal grand jury for six hour, but it's unclear what questions were asked and whether he answered them. he helped trump try to overturn the georgia election results overnight, mr. trump weighed in on the investigation saying if you want to challenge election results in georgia, they will charge you and put you in jail he ended the post with "a perfect phone call", likely talking about that conversation he had with georgia secretary of state brad ravaffensberger, askn him to help find votes >> getting tough to keep track of it all. thank y

sources tell nbc news, trump organization former cfo, allan weisselberg, will plead guilty to several criminal charges. he is expected to be sentenced to five months in jail for his role in a long running tax scheme at the former president 's family business. sources also say weisselberg will cooperate against the trump organization, but there is no indication he will cooperate in any investigation into the former president. but remember, that business that he ran was a very small family business, run by donald trump. with that, let's get smarter with a lot of help tonight, from our lead off panel. greg bluestein a political reporter for the atlanta journal-constitution. he's the author of flipped. how georgia turned purple and broke the monopoly on republican power. former u.s. attorney, joyce vance, who spent 25 years as a federal prosecutor. she is now a law professor at the university of alabama. and andrew weissmann, former fbi general counsel, and former senior member of the mueller probe. counselor weisman, we need you to help us out. there is a lot of reporting. and i want to

trump once called allan weisselberg a loyal employee and one of the toughest people in the business. now he's pleaded guilty and has agreed to testify in a criminal trial likely to happen this fall against trump's company. >>> in georgia, a flurry of activities surrounding the criminal investigation into the attempt to overturn that state's 2020 election results. rudy giuliani testifying before a special grand jury and trump ally senator lindsey graham is next after a federal judge rejected his effort to avoid testifying. >>> in yet another legal case, trump pleaded the fifth. something he had never done before. unlike the former president, cheney acknowledged she lost, while conceding to trump's chosen candidate in wyoming, cheney launched a new national political organization, an effort to vanquish trumpism and block any attempt by trump to return to power. >> we must be very clear-eyed about the threat we face and what is required to defeat it. i have said since january 6th that i will do whatever it takes to ensure donald trump is never genny where near the oval office, and i mea

so don't forget there is a criminal case against the trump organization and the cfo, allan weisselberg trial date, yet. but weisselberg's former daughter-in-law is supposedly said to be a witness in that case which will establish a lot of the wrongdoing that happened. a crime by the cfo influences what will happen to the organization itself. then you add to that the civil case and donald trump should be very worried. very worried. >> here's what i find perplexing, the, about the children testifying. we've been showing images the entire time, we showed america, we showed don jr., and then there was eric trump. we know back in 2020, i believe, over 500 times invoked the fifth amendment when it came to testimony with attorney general letitia james. so what does this signal, now of the shift, right, of don jr. and ivanka providing testimony when in fact their brother pled the fifth? >> it is a little perplexing. there's no question about that. but that was a year ago, right? think of all of the things that we know today that we did not know a year ago. all the evidence that's out there, an
