mark pomrantz assessment there. i think thore capable and faunae willis is capable of bringing this case as she's shown in other cases. but it's the perfect tool in a case maybe what she has here where you've got somebody who's calling the shots but allowing other people to be engaged on the ground so you can bring in all of those things and allow the jury to hear the full scope of criminal activity. you also have fake electors and tampering with voting machines, and if other people did those things they might not ordinally come in under other joineder rules. if you charge the rico then all that comes in and the jury gets to understand the full scope of all the activity. they may seem less important, but when you view them in their entirety, you see this was a very wholehearted effort to overturn an election. >> indeed it was. what do you expect for the report tomorrow? everyone is saying lower your expectations. do you think we'll be able to get anything given the way this is going given the introduction and conclusion and other parts getting released? >> faunae willis tried to keep this under wraps. she wouldn't be

understanding stating it or versus intentionally lying but your question, and mark meadows, somebody who jack smith, and fanny willis very much focused on, and if i were them, i would be lining up a federal and state indictment if you can prove it, to put pressure on him to try to cooperate. >> what you make of what we understand now? i thought of james comey when i heard her talk about other tapes, i never had heard of anybody recording each other, clearly a lot of people recorded donald trump, and potentially that is what one does when there are questions of criminality by him all the time swirling. the fact that there are multiple people that they recommended indictments for, that means criminal proceedings potentially are imminent now for multiple people potentially including the president, the ex- president. >> it is important to remember that we are talking about one juror, not 24, and that this was just a special grand jury that made recommendations call it is still up to the da to decide who she thinks should be charged, and a normal, regular grand jury that would make the decision. so we are still a number

mark meadows. joyce, i want to ask you what we are learning and what we can anticipate going forward. let me play what fani willis, the d.a. there, had said last month when discussing this release with the judge. take a listen. >> if that report was released, there somehow could be arguments made that it impacts the right for later individuals, multiple, to get a fair trial. at this time in the interest of justice and the rights of not the state but others, we are asking that the report not be released because you having seen that report, decisions are imminent. >> decisions are imminent, the key phrase there. so, joyce, is there anything from what we're seeing today in this report that could change fani willis' timeline, maybe even speed it up? walk us through what we should be watching next. >> so i think fani willis got what she wanted here. what she's really saying in prosecutor speak is that if there are releases in the grand jury report about individuals before they're charged, there's the possibility that if they're convicted down the road, those convictions could be attacked on appeal. she's essentially s

willis one way or another. she said they were imminent. apparently, i just get it out for my producer in my ear, as cnn's reporting mark meadows as well as received a subpoena from jack smith, which i think is not shocking, right? if you're subpoenaing mike pence who probably also want to talk to mark meadows. it does it >> does suggest that the sincere speculation about whether mark meadows was cooperating and that was the reason doj didn't actually go forward with the recommendation, if you remember he was referred by congress and there was speculation that the reason doj didn't go for it was because he struck some kind of deer deal. he turned over some documents but not all. this would suggest whatever that speculation once it didn't go anywhere. if you're not issuing a subpoena -- >> start your engines and lawyers crafting some novel immunity that applies to chiefs of staff as a mansion in the constitutional system. somewhere in the constellation x to the vice president as a special status. >> maybe an aide to the vice president. >> yes, aiding the president. presumably he's going to try to find it as well. >> he can try and assert executive

mark meadows that we know appeared in front of that grand jury. the general attitude by the trump campaign has been to cast dispersions adds fani willis as someone whohould be focusing on crime in her county and not an issue like this and suggests that the lack of public interest from the d.a. or the grand jury that donald trump was neither subpoenaed to testify. >> let me read a statement from trump's legal team about a month ago, exactly to garrett's point, barbara. trump was never subpoenaed nor asked to come in voluntarily by this grand jury or anyone in the fulton county district attorney's office. therefore, we can assume that the grand jury did their job and looked at the facts and the law as we have and k canned there were no violations of the law by president trump. is that a logical assumption in your mind? >> no, in fact, it's just the opposite in my mind. and the reason is that under georgia law -- before the grand jury, that could be the case that this case just doesn't come anywhere close to donald trump, but based on all the things wen including that phone call, it seems more likely that donald trump was a target of the investigation.

mark meadows. judge mcbernie confirmed in his ruling that the special grand jury provided district attorney fannie willisster of who should or should not be indicted and for what, end quote. wow, that part, he said will continue to be kept secret. meanwhile, any official charging decisions will be up to d.a. fannie willis who the judge said possesses, quote, the only physical copy of the report. one that we know could be the whole road map for her to bring a criminal indictment against any member of the trump coup plot team through a regular grand jury. so here is fannie willis in court asking why the court stay sealed. it was for the sake of the potential defendants. >> we think four future defendants to be treated fairly is not appropriate at this time to have this report released. at this time, in the interest of justice, and the rights of in the the state but others, we are asking that the report not be released because you haven't seen that report. decisions are imminent. >> we're back with our panel. david jolly, i think this is so, so, so important. a criminal investigation has brought back one re

mark meadows in late january, and nbc has not confirmed that. we'll come back to that, but that is what cnn and the "wall street journal" are reporting. i want to talk more about fanna willis. she has brought some unusual cases. rico cases, cases against teachers. she's a pretty bold prosecutor. you know, what do you make of the likelihood that she is the kind of prosecutor who would shoot for the king, as they say? for donald trump, because i mean, donald trump is at the head of this conspiracy. he reportedly even solicited research that he received the results of in december that confirmed for him that there was no fraud sufficient to overturn the elections in multiple states, including georgia. we know that is now true because of the jack smith investigation. and then in january, after receiving that research that included georgia, he still gets on that call on january 2nd and asks for those 11,000 some odd votes. is fani willis the kind of prosecutor, just based on your reporting, who would take that kind of a case, or are we looking at cases for perjury here and not necessarily cases that involve trump himself? >> well, okay. so you make a good point. georgia's rico l

mark meadows, what was his demeanor when he came in? mr. meadows didn't share much. >> didn't share much. interesting, right? so look, we mentioned this the last hour. it's been 29 days since fani willissaid the indictments were imminent. does this put anymore pressure on her, does it have any impact on the case at all? >> i think it does. she said i meant legally imminent. i'm a lawyer. i went to law school. there's scrambling. you heard the no comment, i'm sure behind the scenes, those weren't the words. i'm sure exasperated that emily kohrs went on and said these things. still, she is not breaking the law. she's not following the judge's orders. she's not breaking the law, but the headlines, i think, are what she revealed. she's not much of a poker player and let us know what's coming at least in the special report. >> was there anything in the numbers that surprised you? i mean, maybe more than a dozen indictments. i suppose we could have guessed that there would be some recognizable faces, there are so many recognizable faces, but i wonder just in general what you make of that? >> so i had surmised, based on not much, we were talking about something like that because remember, we

willie, it seems to me that they're a little off the mark here, but okay. >> yeah, last couple of days. joining us now, columnist at "politico," jonathan martin. jonathan, great to see you. >> hey, willie. >> let's talk about what we've seen here in the last couple days from republicans, which is, coming out of the state of the union address, president biden clearly is going to make this rick scott plan -- by the way, mitch mcconnell yesterday was clear to say it is a rick scott plan, not a republican plan. doesn't have a lot of love for senator scott. but president biden is going to use this. republicans want to perhaps put in jeopardy social security and medicare. republicans now saying none of them actually want to do that, but the plan is the plan. it's in the brochure. on the other hand, you have republicans in the house going after things like hunter biden's laptop and going after their tweets being taken down a couple years ago. >> right. >> is this a contrast -- >> it's really important stuff, willie. >> yeah. >> look, those two clips really capture the contrast in the parties

fully reopened, but this bridge -- and we traveled across it, willie, to get here to crimea -- this bridge is also an illustration of why marksays that crimea will be so difficult for ukrainian forces to take. president zelenskyy said he wants to do it. this bridge is one of two ways onto this peninsula. the other is a land bridge to the northwest of here. now, when we came here to crimea yesterday, we travelled about 4 hours across the peninsula. there, we found another reason why crimea will be a challenge for ukrainian forces. we spoke to a number of people, all of them spoke in russian, described themselves as russian. one 73-year-old woman told us if she was younger, she would fight. another man in his 50s said, we aren't prepared to be slaves. there was a lot of propaganda for president putin, supporting russia's so-called special military operation. but we did find a lot of opinion there that was supportive of russia and opposed to what president zelenskyy has said he wants to do, which is to take back crimea. another observation, important observation to note was just how much military we saw there. many soldiers and
