tanya miller, does it make sense to you now what this process has been, beginning on january 3rd, fani, of donald trump's phone call to secretary of state brad raffensperger in georgia, asking for 11,000 votes and telling, we also know, an awful lot of lies to the secretary of state about the election that was conducted in his state. here we are two and a half years later. does that amount of time make sense to you in this investigation with a special grand jury that was first empaneled to hear all of this evidence and now finally landing on indictments at this point? >> absolutely, lawrence. i think you hit the nail right on the head. i mean, there were all these conversations about how long this investigation was taking, how all encompassing it was. look, the district attorney could have seen this case in multiple different ways. this could have just been a case about that call to brad raffensperger. but what you saw here is sort of par for the course with fani willis. when she sees cases like this that she believes will fit that rico statute, she has talked about how much she likes

but i imagine the results will be very similar. >> tanya miller, the motions are coming quickly now in the georgia case, asking sydney powell, asking to have her case severed, saying that she had nothing to do with most of the people who are charged in this case, she should be tried separately, trying her with all those other defendants would be prejudicial to her. kenneth chesebro also ask you to be tried separately, and with a speedy trial. sydney powell asking for a speedy trial. presumably there will be more of these coming with district attorney willis asking for a deadline, asking the judge to set a deadline on requests for a speedy trial and severance so that we can see exactly who wants this. >> yeah, and i will just tell you, lawrence, this is a common motion that you see filed in any case involving coconspirators or codefendants charged together on some -- theory. everybody wants to be tried alone. what i thought was interesting about sydney powell's motion is that she's almost asking the judge to decide she's innocent, weighing the evidence that he hasn't heard. it again fel

they are all listed together like the same enterprises tanya miller was just saying.of those names are pretty obscure, like the local georgia officials who served as fake electors, and then some trump campaign folks, but many of them are familiar faces who, as the indictment alleges, were furthering the charge of criminal conspiracy out in the open, day after day, and even often on camera, like rudy giuliani, facing 13 counts. he led a team of lawyers that included sydney powell, tied with seven counts, and jenna ellis, charged with two counts. they spent later months of 2020 telling anyone who would listen about the friday claimed occurred. >> the dominion voting systems, the smartmatic technology software and the software that goes in other computerized voting systems here as well, not just dominion, were created in venezuela at the direction of hugo chavez to make sure he never lost an election after one constitutional referendum came out the way he didn't want it to come out. we have one very moran witness who has explained how it all works. he is affidavit is att

"the reidout" continues after this. the virus that causes shingles is sleeping... in 99% of people over 50. it's lying dormant, waiting... and could reactivate. shingles strikes as a painful, blistering rash that can last for weeks. and it could wake at any time. think you're not at risk for shingles? it's time to wake up. because shingles could wake up in you. if you're over 50, talk to your doctor or pharmacist about shingles prevention. salonpas lidocaine flex. a super thin, flexible patch with maximum otc strength lidocaine that contours to the body to relieve pain right where it hurts. and did we mention, it really, really sticks? salonpas, it's good medicine. . >>> all of trump's co-defendants and potentially all of the unindicted coconspirators face a daunting decision. do i continue to shield tr

tanya miller is a georgia state representative who serves as a prosecutor in the fulton county district attorney's office alongside fani willis. she joins me now. first, i just want to ask about these motions made by both jeffrey clark and mark meadows to not just remove the case from that court but not to appear in a criminal county jail and be processed at all. what do you make of? those and were you surprised or not surprised at the judges ruling that they can't do that. >> no, i was not surprised that they asked for that and i also was not surprised that the judge denied that specifically. as we know we have been talking about these motions to remove the case, state court to federal court, centered around this idea that they were federal employees acting at the behest of federal employees doing federal business when they were allegedly colluding to steal the election down here in georgia. i think that motion is going to be denied eventually. with what they did though, recently, was asked judge jones, on a bomb appointee, a fairly straight middle of the road in moderate federal judge
