i would note, the georgia state judge has recently reversed himself and said he will make public the may learn a bit more. they each wrote an apology to georgia citizens. particularly pleading to something that is so core to the conspiracy. it will be interesting to see what the apology says and what we learned from that. the big news was with respect to the reporting or to mark meadows or whether he was offered immunity by the fed's. if that is the case, he could be a devastating -- . that is on the criminal side. then there is the ongoing civil case that donald trump seems to be showing more interest in than many criminal cases pending. >> that may go to what he knows about the financial hit the companies can take. how leveraged and how much is the shell game. i don't know if you have a cabin in upstate but i guess it's common that they have multiple shell companies housing a single cabin. that is sarcasm. just for anyone that just turned on the tv. i did want to get to the tampering point. i mention your experience. again, a lot of people know you from mueller. lawyers know you fro

bit of a change of heart and a reversal compared to what she was doing standing in front of the georgia state senate laying out a host of things that were not true. she obviously now only gets probation, she has to pay a $5,000 fine, has to apologize to the people of georgia, but most importantly as we have been discussing with all of these defendants, she now amps up the pressure on other people to cooperate. and certainly if prosecutors got the cooperation of someone like rudy giuliani or anybody sort of at that level, that's a game changer for them. it doesn't discount what she is offering. she is giving something significant, or they wouldn't be giving her probation. i think what you see is just sort of you're going to see more and more defendants now feeling more pressure to cooperate, certainly she didn't have the trial pressure that someone like chesebro or powell did, they had trial dates set, but still this is an important moment for the rest of the defendants in this . >> and, again, there are now still 15 co-defendants including trump, there were 19 to begin with, and we see ken ch

in my state and other states, mass voter challenges. did you know that in georgia right now, single citizens, random citizens can challenge the legitimacy of other citizens' votes? literally, a handful of people are responsible for challenging the votes of thousands of georgia citizens. partisan and racial gerrymandering is one of our most serious problems along with all of these tactics of voter suppression. and as we are seeing play out in the house with kevin mccarthy needing 15 votes and then being summarily thrown out, they are finding themselves sewn up in a bag of their own making, but i submit that this is a danger to our democracy, and when you think about the work that we need to do right now in order to exercise american leadership on the global stage, this is a threat to our national security. and so you are the center for american progress, and you know better than most that there is no progress without the voices of the people. so i know you all have in talking about a lot of things over the last couple of days, but the most important thing we've got

and that they each gave a video statement to the georgia state prosecutor, but we don't know what iss. we just don't know how helpful they actually are to the prosecution, and when you have chesbrough's lawyer saying not just that, that he's not the architect, that he's minimizing his own criminal conduct, but the other part that he said after the plea was, donald trump has nothing to be worried about. and my client didn't snitch on anyone. so again, these are not the words of an act and actions of somebody who would be a star witness for the prosecution. it's quite the opposite. this is someone minimizing their own conduct, and saying that they're not providing information. and sidney powell, she only pled guilty to the coffee county hacking scheme. she never pled guilty to actually spreading widespread voter fraud claims, which we believe that it's alleged that she did, with donald trump, and rudy giuliani, and jenna alice, and others. she's not admitting to it herself, i'm not sure how much she's actually going to give on these other defendants. the last thing i'll say is, in my e

state electors to go for trump and to flip, and she was also standing up before people in the georgia statemaking a host of wild, baseless claims about dead voters in georgia, none of which was true and she all, but admitted today in court and that's a problem for giuliani. a query about how much of a problem it is for trump, powell and chesebro all people in the legal circle, but they all have different stories to tell and it's just a question of which one has the one that's most problematic. >> other than the three lawyer, another person, another co-conspirator has also flipped. that brings the number of defendants down to 15. could we be seeing more flip in the coming days and weeks? and could that potentially speed up a trial date? >> perhaps, but i think the issue is that chesebro and powell sort of had -- >> a speedy trial thing already. >> to start on monday. >> they had a timing issue. ellis had been complaining a while she wasn't getting her legal bills paid, perhaps to the extent like other people, like giuliani, who have legal bills who aren't getting help from trump are feeling

publicly, the fact is that they also introduced such a new legal if you want, canon, in the state of georgiatate of georgia, where mostly african americans live, she decided to use the so-called rika against the defendants, if you remember, rika is what was used against the mafia, this is against the roketiri. these are the toughest possible measures and the greatest opportunities to restrict the freedom of the defendants, to take them into custody even before the trial at the very beginning, these are the interesting deals that are being concluded, these people could be imprisoned for 12 years, and you know what kind of punishment they are given, six months, probation , months, probation, and a fine of $500, which for an overachieving lawyer is not an amount, that is, in other words, they are using a law that has never been used in this way, using how political weapons intimidate defendants, blackmail them, and then they say , guys, everything is not so bad, if you cooperate with the investigation and help us put trump in prison, then we will actually make you innocent, because those punish

been convicted of racketeering, they were looking at a minimum sentence of five to 20 years in georgia state but, all four getting off probation, fani willis probably thinks that these cooperating witnesses could deliver the biggest fish. rudy giuliani and donald trump. so today in court, ellis specifically stated in papers she aided and abetted giuliani in making false statements to the georgia senate. last week, ken chesebro and his guilty plea implicated giuliani in the fake electors scheme. so, a guilty plea from rudy giuliani is clearly on fani willis' wish list, and that's going to be -- would be a really interesting lead negotiation. >> so much intrigue to come. and the obviously the consequences very significant. paul butler, blayne alexander, thank you, both, so much. >>> with the fate of more than 200 hostages hanging in the balance, the secretary of state makes a major diplomatic push with israeli attacks on gaza intensifying. you're watching "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc. nsifying you're watching "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc a cowboy or a gangster. and a gangster

if meadows is cooperating on the january 6th case, likely he would cooperate in the georgia state caseified documents case being prosecuted federally in the southern district of florida. typically, not always, but typically if somebody is coop rating on one case, they are cooperating across the board. federal prosecutors, and tim and i both served as federal prosecutors, would require full, complete and candid cooperation. we don't tend to cut cooperation deals in which the defendant or the bad guy or mr. meadows, perhaps, in this case gets to pick and choose on what issues he cooperates. let me talk about your first question. so the difference between a plea deal in which somebody acknowledges their guilt, like jenna ellis did, and an immunity deal, as mr. meadows may have, if the abc report something accurate, is the second thing, an immunity deal occurs when a defendant has important information for prosecutors that they need to prove their underlying case, they need a vector into the criminal conspiracy, and sometimes the vest vectors into the conspiracy are other criminals, so mar

law is to reduce inflation. no, here's the proof: trump is ahead of biden in almost every swing state, georgia, pennsylvania, north carolina, if the election were held today, biden would lose by a landslide. lead, so biden changes his course, for the election, he chooses the principle of the gun instead of butter. biden asks congress for $100 billion, but says not to worry. taxpayers are just funding defense contractors, creating all these proxy wars with america. jeffrey sachs, eminent economist, i like this man well only because chubais hated him. for me, that's enough for jeffrey sachs. treat with respect, that's what jeffrey sachs said. professor sachs, how can we avoid armageddon. we are drifting towards disaster, and i would say that this is precisely drift. dwight esenhower gave his farewell address 62 years ago in january 1961. and even then he warned us about the power of the military-industrial complex. the military-industrial complex has taken over us foreign policy, especially since the 1990s. we sometimes call it the era of niakons. this was an era when the united states waged non

those victims more specifically the residents, the citizens of this state of georgia, cnghe fact that they werepting to take away the lawful votes that they placed f now president joe biden in the 2020 election. so that letter of apology makes sense. but also, ana, there is a record of proffer that is a special condition that is already provided to the state. i want you to think for a second about the timing of all this. you got her lawyer, sidney powell's lawyers in court on monday fighting tooth and nail to get the charges dismissed. between monday and today, sidney powell provided a recorded proffer and a letter apology and hammered out the details of a probationary plea, guilty to six counts. so there has been a lot of things going on behind the scenes. do underestimate prosecutors and what they're able to do while they also prep for trial. >> and what is the tru camp >> i think thi is very alarming news for the trump camp. you know, united they stand, divided they fall. but so often i have seen this, jose, there just is no honor among thieves when you conspire with people who are

these shots of the chase in the us state of georgia are now the main evidence. product about a murdere officer with a speedometer over a hundred miles, a busy highway does not allow the violator to break away, the driver finally pulls over to the side of the road, get out of the car, hands behind your head, the police sheriff wanted to write the driver a fine for careless driving and speeding, but he turned out to be not the timid one, being already at gunpoint, he sharply raises his hand and immediately receives a stun gun, a fight ensues, and a step away from the highway, a little more and he is a rowdy, holds it up above the sheriff, the policeman goes to extreme measures, grabs a pistol from his holster and shoots at point-blank range. i fired shots, the suspect was killed. the fallen driver is still clutching the air with his hands, but the sheriff doesn’t even think about providing first aid, and when he is secured, it becomes too late, only looking at the fuss around the motionless man, the officer seems to understand what exactly he just did and tries to explain, he was fighti

that the state is asking that a $6,000 fine be imposed and restitution of $2,700 be paid to the state of georgialogy letter be written to the citizens of the state of georgia, that you truthfully testify at all hearings and proceedings and trials involving the co-defendants in this matter, and that you have no communication with co-defendants, media, or witnesses until this case has been completely closed against all defendants? >> i do. >> and do you understand as a special condition of this sentence that you are to provide what you've already done a recording proffered to the state with a good faith prior to entering this plea? >> i do. >> so in exchange, sidney powell agreeing to testify in future hearings and hand over documents and referendum related to the case. obviously given her proximity to donald trump after the 2020 election, that could be pivotal. >> yeah. part of her agreement involves writing a letter of apology to the people of georgia for trying to interfere in the election. elliott, how significant a development is this? part of the reason this was brought as a rico case is pre

was in the courtroom because it came together so quickly in georgia, jenna ellis, she accepted a plea deal. she pleaded guilty today in the state of georgia in that election of interference case, i want remind our viewers who jenna ellis is, what she used to said previously and what she said in court today. >> an elite strike force team that's working on behalf of the president and the campaign to make sure that our constitution is protected. >> president trump's right that there was widespread fraud. >> we have this overwhelming evidence of fraud. this election was fraudulent and corrupt zbld all of these false and fraudulent. >> i endeavor to represent my client. to provide me with true and reliable information. if i knew then what i know now i would have declined to represent donald trump in these post-election challenges. >> maggie, as someone who read her tweets, it's kind of stunning to hear the tears today. >> deep regret, a different thing than remorse. but yes, what she was saying for a very long time was that, you know, donald trump was in the right and she was going to be right. she was one of the biggest proponents

in the legislature in that state in georgia where republicans are in control of the legislature, they are trying already to use a new state law that they just passed to go after the prosecutor who was leading that investigation and who has brought that case in court. this is a new process that georgia republicans just newly wrote into law. and while they were debating it in the legislature, they said they definitely wouldn't use it just for this case. it had nothing to do with fani willis and the trump case. they weren't doing it just to get trump off the hook. sure enough, as soon as they've passed this law, georgia senate republicans have, surprise, already used it to file a formal complaint against fulton county district attorney fani willis who is the prosecutor leading the racketeering investigation and the racketeering prosecution against trump and his co-defendants. they're doing it. georgia republican governor brian kemp has said he's not in favor of them doing this. at least not yet. and the fact that the power to go after a prosecutor like this is something brand new, republ
