let's just turn to allen weisselberg. allen weisselberg has left completely to donald trump. term cfo, chief financial officer to the trump organization. he pleaded guilty to a tax fraud scheme of over a dozen years. the trump organization itself was convicted at trial just last year in the manhattan d. a.'s office. he is pleading now to to actual perjury counts, to lying in the civil fraud case where donald trump and, by the way, allen weisselberg were found civilly liable for fraud. you have that -- in addition to being a defendant there and be unfounded liable, he also now is a defendant for lying in the attorney general's civil case. i mean, this is an array of crime. everything i've talked to you about, including the criminal actions that he pled to, his current political actions, he has been paid by the trump organization millions of dollars. at no point did they cut him off saying, wait, we can't have a criminal on our books. we can't be paying somebody like this. no, he has been paid millions of dollars by the trump organization. that is an example of hush money, not

asked, were you ever present when donald trump described the size of the triplex apartment, allen weisselberg said he wasn't, but this again, forbes magazine had an audio recording of an interview with donald trump in which he described the inflated size of this penthouse triplex apartment, and weisselberg was there. so that's specifically what he is pleading guilty to, but he also admitted to lying during his testimony in the fall during this trial with that, allen weisselberg, donald trump, the adult sons were all found libel and that massive fine that donald trump is facing a $454 million. so weisselberg, acknowledging that he lied under oath during that testimony, loading not plead guilty to that charge today. so weisselberg now how is expected to be sentenced next month, prosecutors said that they have agreed than recommend a sentence of five months in rikers island jail. remember, allen weisselberg already, please could be guilty in 2022 to tax fraud charges. he served a five-month sentence at rikers, ultimately, that ended up being about 100 days. so that is what looks like it will pla

don alexander at "forbes" puts out a story that has just a litany of back and forth between allen weisselbergagazine about how involved he was and the headline in the story even said that weisselberg was lying on the stand. and this almost immediately triggered an investigation that led to this morning's proceedings, where he looks like he's going to end up back in rikers for another five-month tour of duty. >> sue, there are lies that could be fuzzed up with a complicated fuzzy borderline, and then there were lies that were so obvious that i could understand them. and lying about trump, the size of trump's tacky condos is like a lie that a child could understand. anything you can measure with a tape measure. >> that's above my pay grade. maybe you're saying these things so often that you forget the difference between the truth and the lie. i don't know. it was puzzling to me why he would -- it was such an obvious misstatement, and it was seized upon immediately, and i think prosecutors saw it as a way in come back with charges against allen weisselberg. they had been looking at other charges

but allen weisselberg is not going to be cooperating with the district attorney's office. he will not be testifying against donald trump. this is just a straight plea that weisselberg will make to surgery, but it will not in any way. sources tell us impact the criminal investigation that will start later this month against the former president now weisselberg will be pleading guilty that will make him a convicted liar. so it will make it harder for anyone to change their mind and call him as a witness because he will have admitted just having live in another they're investigation. but certainly this is bad for allen weisselberg the second time he will be pleading guilty in that case. he was sentenced to five months and he served about 100 days. that right? here's ireland and new york is a notorious jail. it's possible that will be how this plays out again today. we do know that prosecutors and his attorneys have just entered the courtroom. we will expect allen weisselberg to appeal here's some time this morning, then he will he will plead guilty. and what they call allocut

. >> following the new revelations from former trump organization cfo allen weisselberg. trump's campaign is going on the attack once again targeting manhattan da, alvin bragg and the statement trump's campaign claims bragg has committed repeated prosecutorial misconduct in his illegal desperate pursuit of trump. the statement goes on to say the da has turned a blind eye to the admitted and repeated perjury of michael cohen joining us now, former federal prosecutor for the southern district of new york jessica roth. you hear that you see that statement from donald trump, but allen weisselberg admitted to perjury, correct. give us some sense of what's happening here. yeah. so it was a surprise and >> allen weisselberg showed up in court and pled guilty teach a perjury. i think it was yesterday. yeah, a lot happening. the purpose of the letter that was filed by mr. trump's lawyers as i read, it, was really to erode public trust in the integrity of the da's prosecution of trump by pointing to the lies and unreliability of michael cohen as a witness. there were accusations of

>> right, so this actually all went down in the last several minutes, jose, and allen weisselberg wasccording to adam reiss who was in the courtroom in handcuffs pleading guilty. it's going to be two counts of perjury in the first degree. what he's pleading guilty to is two specific counts. it's all tied to the a.g.'s trial. you'll remember that weiss l weisselberg testified at that. he testified at the time of trial that he really wasn't across that, he wasn't across those misrepresentations that were made on multiple occasions except for the problem that forbes, the magazine had all sorts of communications that dated back to weisselberg apparently, according to them, trying to make certain claims and statements about this. and you remember this is all tied to the idea of trump's wealth, and forbes' inclusion of him on the wealthiest people in america list trump's team regularly interfaced with forbes trying to lobby for the former president's that his worth was at a certain level. this all dates back to that in that testimony, and the manhattan district attorney's office said that t

here's aaron katersky. >> reporter: for almost 50 years, allen weisselberg was a trusted lieutenant of the trump family. tonight, for a second time, that loyalty is sending him to jail. weisselberg pleaded guilty to perjury, admitting he lied during the new york attorney general's investigation and trial of his former boss. the 67-year-old weisselberg came to court today in handcuffs. he was released until april 10th, when he will be sentenced to five months in jail. >> how do you feel? >> reporter: weisselberg has already served time for evading taxes on benefits he received as chief financial officer of the trump organization. this time, he lied about his role in affirming the size of trump's fifth avenue penthouse. trump's financial statements said it's 30,000 square feet, but the attorney general showed trump's signature on a document certifying it's a third that size, 11,000 square feet. that false valuation is part of the reason trump was held liable for fraud and ordered to pay a nearly half billion dollar civil penalty. weisselberg did not implicate trump. he left the trump org

it's like allen weisselberg can have his own hegemony case. he is the one that continues to get paid to misrepresent donald trump and his businesses. can you remind our audience of how close this man is to trump and his family? what an internal part he has been in the trump organization, which is a tiny business and he has been a key member. >> it's incredible. i'm currently writing a book on donald trump and his money. in doing that, we're going back and looking back to donald trump's father and allen weisselberg has been in the frame for 50 years. >> 50. >> 50. he was to read trump, he got hired by donald trump. he's been there every single step of the way. he knows where every penny is in that organization. he's crucial. he is now in the middle of another trial coming up, the criminal child that is coming, up the hush money payment trial. i don't expect him to be a witness in. that i think was uncooperative in terms of what he was willing to say that he knew. i think the part of what happened today was, you know, the return trip to rikers i

included a guilty plea from donald trump's long time financial gate keeper, allen weisselberg.bc legal correspondent lisa rubin is following that story for us. what happened in court? >> allen weisselberg pleaded guilty to two counts of perjuring himself in connection with the recently concluded civil fraud case that the new york attorney general prosecuted. his guilty plea came in connection with statements he made during a 2020 deposition, but he also admitted in court today that he perjured himself in 2023, during a civil deposition and his trial testimony. all of the testimony considered perjury deals with the value and size of donald trump's trump tower apartment which was erroneously reported on his financial statements as having 33,000 plus square feet. the actual size of the apartment is about 10,000 square feet. weisselberg said he wasn't aware of that at the time that he was involved in reporting that. that was found to be not credible, not only by judge arthur engoron, the civil judge who oversaw that trial, but based on his perjury plea, allen weisselberg knew it wa

and the manhattan district attorney's office agrees with that and allen weisselberg has pleaded guiltyt of cooperation agreement. we do not expect his testimony at the upcoming criminal trial of the former president. that trial slated to begin by the end of this month or at least jury selection, and that stems back to a series of payments to two women and a pattern of conduct we've well discussed at this point. he will not be testifying. this is not contingent on any future testimony. this is a straight guilty plea as it pertains to that testimony involved in the a.g.'s civil case, which trump has appealed that, the massive over $450 million fine and disgorgement. >> that news continuing to come as we continue to follow today's decision from the supreme court. back with us to discuss, msnbc legal correspondent, lisa rubin, paul butler, former federal prosecutor, and msnbc legal analyst. and michael zeldin, former federal prosecutor. one of the things that the supreme court mentioned in this decision is it's essentially congress's role to decide whether the 14th amendment applies and wh

allen weisselberg may have given information to the maybe even testified to a grand jury. >> and he has already pled guilty to perjury? >> exactly, but there could be more complications there. there also could be discussions about the theory of the case, of the federal campaign. why do i say that? because if you remember, less go back in a time machine to when bill barr was the attorney general that was fighting with the acting u.s. attorney, audrey stratus saying that you essentially should get rid of the case and she pushed back. so there could just be a whole massive material, and that is what i'm keeping my eye on, what is the information and is it going to be something that is really meaningful, exactly. >> but i don't fundamentally understand, and this is according to d.a. bragg, he asked for a lot of this material last year and did not get it. and then trump asks for it in january and so far, 103,000, i think, is the count, pages of documents have been turned over. i mean, what might possibly account for that? >> i think one thing you have to understand is although all of the

developments connected to both today through the trump organizations, former top finance guy allen weisselberg. and his former attorney, michael cohen. cnn's kara scannell has been following all those developments and joins us now kara, what do we learn today? >> yes. so weisberg, longtime confidant of donald trump, pleaded guilty to two felony counts of perjury. this all relates to testimony he gave during the new york attorney general's civil fraud investigation into the trump organization. and when he testified at the trial last year and his false statements relate to testimony about the size of trump's triplex apartment at trump tower. it had been valid for years on the company's financial statements as though it was 30,000 square feet. in reality, it was just under 11,000 square feet. one of the statements that weisselberg admitted today that being false was he was asked at the trial and in his deposition whether he'd been present when donald trump's talked about the size of the apartment, he said he had it. in reality, he had been he was present when trump was talking to reporters from f

y en el escenario judicial que involucra al expresidente trump, allen weisselberg, ex director financierogrado. inicialmente fue acusado de 5 cargos por mentir bajo juramento durante el juicio civil por fraude financiero contra el expresidente trump. el fiscal de distrito recomendó una sentencia de 5 meses de cárcel y podrá esperar en libertad su audiencia pautada para el 10 de abril. en el tema de política, nicky kiley le ganó a donald trump en las primarias republicanas de washington y obtuvo así su primer triunfo ante el supermartes. la ex embajadora ante la onu afirmó que no se siente obligada a respaldar a trump si él ganara la nominación en el programa de nbc news meet the press dijo que aunque cada candidato debe firmar un compromiso de apoyar al nominado del partido, ella lo hizo para poder participar y que el comité nacional republicano está ahora bajo el control de donald trump. por supuesto, lo invitamos a sintonizar este supermartes aquí en noticias telemundo tendremos una extensa cobertura de las primarias que se llevan a cabo en 15 estados y el territorio de samoa no se lo p

criminal trial and widely respected for the way in which he manages the courtroom and in fact, allen weisselberg, trump's former cfo, said of judge merchant that he showed them the utmost respect, understood their role as advocates. so this is a judge who is even killed, doesn't lose it in any sense. and here he was obviously quite upset very much with the lawyers and how they're making claims that were outrageous in a certain sense, needed to be supported because of how exceptionally they were criticizing the prosecutors, basically saying the prosecutors are engaged in a conspiracy of hiding evidence from them without any support. so i think this is a remarkable setting of the table for the trial by the judge who's well respective for being able to control this room, right. >> eric, see what this is. one and bringing now, we have made me rocha who is with us. the da in westchester county, new york, also former division chief for the sdny and many, you know, todd blanche very well. you worked together, was it surprising at all to you to see your former colleague called out in that way? >> well,

allen weisselberg was sentenced and convicted to prison. trump's chief strategic steve bannon was sentenced to prison pending appeal for defying a subpoena.pe trump's business was itself found guilty of tax fraud. two trump lawyers kenneth chesebro and sidney powell have pleaded guilty to election related crimes. and now tomorrow peter navarro is due to report to start serving his sentence in federal prison. it's not like manafort is the only one in stripes, right? that's how these guys role. t you sign up for the trump p campaign, they ask you what sizh should they make your jumpsuit. but even apart from all the pa indictments of trump himself, he has surrounded himself with people who are very comfortabled with the criminal side of the ledger. manafort because of his background stands apart as a very specific kind of criminal in donald trump's world. and as such, there is just one last aspect of this that is h,t truly amazing, that it's like -- the part of it that we won't in believe years from now when we look back on a news day like thi

allen weisselberg is also available and donald trump has not said anything about him. he's likely to be a witness for the defense. there's a lot the prosecution could do with him as well. i don't think this scuttles the prosecution's case entirely, but the prospect of getting rid of michael cohen and stormy daniels is a big, big deal. >> dave, let's go to our home state of florida. let's go to that mar-a-lago classified documents case which is getting so crazy that it sometimes takes a comedian to explain it best. take a listen to stephen colbert last night. >> his lawyers argued today that the presidential records act does not apply to former president trump because he had virtually unreviewable authority to designate presidential records as personal ones and the national archives has authority over only presidential records and not personal ones. as you can see, officer, i couldn't have stolen the car, because i have it. how could i steal something that's already mine? do you have the keys because i'm having a hell of a time hot wiring this [ bleep ]. >> stephen colb

we're going to see a lot with allen weisselberg who has his own legal issues to deal with going forwardk the prosecution is going to make hay of him as a defense issue. >> that's the legal landscape, part of it, again, there's so many court cases, 91 felony counts as we have been saying. there's a lot of polling that suggests that there are republicans out there who voted in republican primaries that say, listen, i'm not comfortable with somebody who's convicted. do you put in stock in the polling? >> look, i don't think anything in the court system is going to save america from donald trump. i think that he gets a net benefit to a lot of hard core maga voters. they think he's being persecuted for being an innocent businessman. but i don't think that's going to be the key valence where voters make their decision. we're in court on the stormy daniels case because he paid a porn star off to keep silent. that stuff is baked in the cake. the overhang of the legal stuff with trump, it's not going to change the outcome of the election. i have told my democratic friends do not count on the cou

and then i think we've got the wild card of what are we going to hear or not hear from allen weisselberg. but it doesn't matter. you the paper. you have the recording. i think you're going to have a couple of witnesses. i think you get a conviction. i think you're then left with the legal question was it done in service of a different crime. >> right. >> and that's ultimately going get decided up on appeal. but as for the jury, i see a conviction, personally. >> does he spend a day in jail? >> again, for this particular crime, and again, it is a misdemeanor in new york unless it is attached or bootstrapped to another crime, which makes it a felony. and again, that will be worked out i think on appeal. it's not the kind of thing where you're going see him do a lot of jail time. he may not do any jail time for it. whether or not it moves the needle i think is an open question. but i think it cannot help to go into this election cycle as an convicted criminal. >> that's right. he will then be in addition to all the other records he set as president, not just the first multiply indicted or e

geoff: and separately, william, allen weisselberg, who is one of donald trump's longest-serving associatesed guilty today to perjury? bring us up to speed on that case. william: that's right. weisselberg was for almost 50 years donald trump's chief financial guy. he got his start as fred trump's, donald trump's father's bookkeeper. he admitted that he lied under oath as part of, he lied to investigators and on the stand, as part of this big sweeping civil fraud trial that just socked donald trump with nearly half-a-billion dollars in fines. in that ruling, the civil fraud ruling, the judge in that case ruled that weisselberg was central to all of the different fraudulent things that donald trump got up to, banned him from serving as a financial officer, said he's got to pay back half the $2 million severance that donald trump gave him when he was walking out the door. so now that he's pled guilty to perjury, he could spend a couple of months in prison. notably, in this case, and, all along, and this has been an incredible frustration to prosecutors in this case, weisselberg has never impli

that probably means information about votes like michael cohen, or perhaps former trump cfo, allen weisselberg. if 30 days can cure the problem here, the judge marchand will go ahead and reset the case for trial and will be back off to the races. but there are some unanswered questions here. >> lots of unanswered questions, lots of documents to review. peter baker, we are waiting for the judge in the georgia case, particularly in terms of fani willis and that hearing that we all saw on national television to see where he comes down for that ruling. today the house judiciary committee, which is led by jim jordan, and actually threatened to hold d.a. fani willis in contempt and they said they were doing so because she did not comply with their subpoena, she has two weeks to respond to the chairman of the committee. donald trump's allies on the hill, they seem to be trying to find any way they can to help donald trump. how much of this kind of thing do you think will ramp up as we continue to get closer and closer to november? clean look, obviously congress has a limited role in overseeing any ki

there's a recording that michael cohen made of donald trump telling him to go get allen weisselberg,a payment in order. there's evidence here, but it's still a very high bar. i have always thought this is one of the weaker cases that have come to trump's doorstep. but having said that, i don't think donald trump wants to be on trial again anywhere. he tried to make the last two with e. jean carroll and the new york a.g.'s case show trials for him to court his base and he got disastrous financial results. i don't know that he wants to go into another courtroom where he's going to be under oath. he's a horrible witness if he testifies. he lies. he exaggerates, he doesn't stay on script. he's a lawyer's worst nightmare on a witness stand. so i don't think he wants to do this, but he may have no choice. >> it strikes me, david jolly, you heard the former president on the trail referring to all of these cases, the georgia case, the new york case as local cases, as though they don't have national implications, when of course, when anything tied to trump has national implications, and as we

it's about the conspiracy between michael cohen, donald trump, executives at american media and allen weisselbergng others to pay off stormy daniels in the wake of the disclosure of the "access hollywood" tape that almost completely derail and destroyed donald trump's candidacy in 2016. seems the d.a.'s office asked for a very wide swath of these materials last year. what they got they turned over to donald trump, they say, last june in these papers. however, without ever complaining about it trump then issued a subpoena of his own this last january and only in the last several days has he received these 104,000 pages that go to the core of their defense. that michael cohen is not to be believed, that he is a liar and that the facts as investigated by sdny will show they purposely did not testify donald trump not because he was sitting president because they couldn't support conviction on the same federal charges trump argued should preempt the case. >> trump asks sdny for these documents when? >> january 18th. after he asks sdny appears since march 4th he first got an initial tranche of 73,000 p

blistering letter to alvin bragg saying you are proceeding with all of these trials and things like allen weisselbergplea deal this week. in your words you are allowing people with brutal attacks on law enforcement and murderers to roam the city free. >> look, he is in a political battle as much as a legal one and he is fighting it that way. and he has got a lot of ammunition with alvin bragg who is the paragon progressive prosecutor. and who does have a well-deserved reputation in new york for minimizing the number of cases they take and then taking the cases they have and pleading them down. contrast this with the 76-year-old nonviolent weisselberg who he has now prosecuted twice in 18 months and is about to put, i guess, refresh my recollection island for another five months. >> shannon: jury selection starts we think on the 25th. jonathan, how well do you think that is go going to go for the former president who has not found the court system to be very friendly to him. >> not very friendly and night mnightmarish jury poll. special counsel. the fact is that even the hung jury in new york is quite
