weissman does not want the israeli viewer to see what he... really lost.rayal of another person of his people, who holds the post of president of ukraine, who in the same way betrayed his grandfather, who fought against nazism, who, without hesitation, betrayed his benefactor and also the jew who made him, made him and artist and president, calmly, just like that, with a click i put him under arrest to please another owner, although quite recently i congratulated him on his birthday in this way, dear igor valerievich, with great pleasure, to be honest, we congratulate you, in general, i wish you everything that the guys said, and friends, time, and health, and children, grandchildren, in general, i wish you next year that everything will be as before, and we have at least something thank you, believe me, i am not defending kolomoisky, absolutely, no, there everything about him is clear, i’m talking about something else, i’m talking about the ease with which people part with their conscience, with a sense of gratitude, with a sense of duty, surprisingly, th

surname of his relatives, parents, grandparents, grandmothers , great-grandmothers, the surname weissmanme white, so... just recently the lenkon theater was supposed to go on tour to israel with a wonderful performance staged back in eighty-nine by mark zakharov, a jew, by the way, according to the stories of the famous jewish writer shalomeikhom, tevye milkman, performance, memorial prayer , peltzer played there, sasha abdulov and leonov played there, the play was restored, now the main role is played by the note. an artist with whom i really love and am happy to work, seryozha stepanchenko, this is a play about a jewish shtetl, about pogroms, about the very difficult fate of a jewish family at a certain time, and so anatoly vaisman writes a denunciation that sounds like this, they want to bring the linkom theater on tour play a performance of a memorial prayer, read speculation on the jewish theme, the stage of the gobim theater. dear israelis, with experience, can you explain to me what this is? the producers decided for themselves that money does not smell like blood, and most import

andrew weissman, welcome back.ith winning most of what he wanted, an early date for that, march in the federal coup case. he had his mugshot taken in georgia. we lived through what i'm about to show you. everyone absorbing that process. >> we say around here, we are living through extraordinary times. >> trump's codefendants in the georgia election interference case are starting to surrender. >> an attorney, john eastman, booked and released on bond -- >> kenneth chesebro, the pro-trump attorney -- >> criminally indicted and booked. >> rudy giuliani, one-time doj official, just had this happen. this is his mugshot. >> they all surrendered yesterday. they've got mug shots. it's quite something. >> the scene outside the georgia jail, so much happening already today. >> mark meadows just got booked. >> history happens in georgia. >> a primetime surrender. >> here it is. criminal defendant and former president, donald j. trump. whatever you think of the photo, this is not something to take lightly. >> the only presiden

but then little guy, take his surname in israel: weissman, who you were born with, with which surnameurname anatoly bely? our surnames do not need to be touched and denigrated, but he was surprised for you, in general there were people on this list who disappeared, changed sides, and revealed their true faces. those who surprised you with this and or in general, we always roughly understood who they, well, of course, were surprised. that is , you didn’t expect that a seemingly normally adequate actor would be an adequately intelligent, educated person. this not only applies to anatoly, the white weissman, many others, many others chulpan khamatova is a good friend. she and i also studied at the same time ; the smartest, talented, beautiful girls starred in one film together. but the first bell rang for me when i came to kazan and the moscow clergy. in the cathedral mosque. they often invited chulpan to support their city, kazan, on all sorts of holidays. support the clergy and chulpan somehow always. like the fox, yulia, wagging her tail like that, she always somehow escaped from it a

andrew weissman is back with us.you were the first to write that donald trump is lying about his wealth. a very long time ago he sued you, you won the lawsuit because he's been lying about his wealth for a long time. now he finally hits a courtroom that is even more effective on this point than the liable courtroom that you ur -- >> let's put in context he began doing this in the 1970s. he lobbied forbes magazine on behalf of his father in the middle of a recession saying somehow magically the trump family wealth was growing. and i think he realized early on he could play the press, and he did it for a number of reasons. he did it because he has this vast wealth. he cares about being pegged at the top of rich lists because he's needy, but it also is an effective tool to put him in front of bankers who might not otherwise have spent any time with him. the more he appeared in the media, the more he appeared on rich lists, the more fetching he was to lenders, and he kept this up on and on again through serial bankruptci

and so this new individual could be, again, to kind of make that rough comparison, a weissman-type figure i'm curious of what you make of at least this little tidbit and whether we should expect anything about who will actually try donald trump as a defendant? in theory there's nothing preventing a special counsel from doing it himself, although often it is the deputies who do the daily trial advocacy. >> you know, i think that that's right. i think in these cases that we will see the lawyers who have already been in court playing significant roles in trial. but the addition of alex whiting to jack smith's team is a smart move. it's someone he's used to working with and relying on. he has deep experience as a prosecutor. he was in the justice department civil rights division doing criminal work. this is someone who knows what's going on in these sorts of cases and will be a solid addition. >> interesting. yeah, your reminding folks of some of the cases he's tried at home, not just the war crimes context. we haven't hit much of the laterally documents case at all tonight. i did want to ret

i want to bring andrew weissman in.makes me want to have a conversation about whether there is a section for a worthless lawsuit, for wasting everyone's time and energy. as ken said, the judges rebuked him. there is no executive privilege. there is no -- doesn't seem to be a very good chance the supreme court is going to take this one up. and his glee in sort of being out there, clogging up the discourse seems like obviously it's his right to be out there speaking and, and my colleague ari melber's face sort of says it all. it seems like on the legal merit, just as ken dilanian said, pretty open and shut. >> i always hate to say that a case is a slam-dunk, because you never know. but i completely agree with ken. this is open and shut. there really is no defense here. but just to be clear, this is unlike in a civil context. in a criminal ken text, a defendant is entitled to simply go to trial, even if the proof is overwhelming because the government has to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt to a unanimous jury. so

. >> okay, but -- andrew weissman tweeted today fani willis saying she'll call 150 witnesses is really absurd. 150 witnesses no matter who's on trial does seem aggressive, does it not? >> it seems unwise to say you're going to present the same exact case no matter who the defendants are. you only have two defendants part of two very discreet schemes. you don't need to start proving up all the other evidence with respect to 17 other defendants the jurors are never going to meet. it's going to be confusing and the jurors may start to resent the prosecutors for making this go on so long. she's estimating four months. the judge said that could take eight months. you have to prove there's a pattern of racketeering and enterprise, but you don't necessarily have to put on the exact same case to do that when you only have two defendants versus 19. >> is it just because she wants these folks tried together, and if it does, what is a reasonable time line for that, mimi? >> i think she's doing it, again, because i think that's the position that a prosecutor who charges 19 people together must tak

leading off our discussion tonight is andrew weissman, former fbi general counsel -- he's a professor of practice at and what you law school, and the host of the prosecuting donald trump podcast. also with us neal katyal, a former acting solicitor general and professor at georgetown law. he is the host of the podcast, courtside with neal katyal. they are both msnbc legal analysts. we will discuss burning man, neil, in the next segment. we won't have andrew suffer that, because i know how jealousy is about not haven't been able to be there himself. >> andrews already said he's coming next year. >> we are going to hold -- burning man gets its own segment, the neo-pagan ritual, we'll hear your defense in the next segment. but andrew, let's begin with what we saw in that sentencing today. 22 years for the person who was doing the work for donald trump, who was committing crimes for donald trump. we've only seen people sentenced to prison for committing crimes for republican presidents. only two of. tim and here we have to because whenever. if you're donald trump's defense counsel, you hav

joining us now, nbc news legal analyst andrew weissman. good morning.nts. do you think his team has a point that a trial starting in seven or eight weeks simply isn't feasible? >> let's start with the last point. that is definitely a good argument that seven or eight weeks is insufficient time. we just had that issue litigated in the d.c. federal case against donald trump. i know it can be hard to keep them all straight because you have the former president facing four separate cases. three of them are set for trial right now. we have an early march date, an end of march date and a may date for three of the cases. georgia is the one where there is not yet a date. people who want to go to trial soon have all raised their hand and said we'd like an early trial. donald trump is not in that position. he wants to go to the back of the line and have his trial after the election so that it's never televised and he can continue to spin the facts and the law without actually being in a forum where a judge will actually determine that and a jury will actually det

former top official at the department of justice andrew weissman is with us.nce agent peter strc is here my question for you as an investigator, how do we find out where this draft report is of the durham investigation that when she refused to write, i have been asked to write a report, i refused to do it but she testified yesterday, there's a draft report was written. what does it say and should we be able to see it? >> i think absolutely we should. this is what weaponization of the department of justice looks like not the clown car that jim jordan is driving. it is things like this fist, i want to thank her for her braver ri in this testimony, but two, for doing the right thing and having the moral integrity to resign back in 2020. because had she not done that, there's a real chance that whatever the draft report was would have been published and quite likely could have impacted the 2020 election. but as to seeing it, she joins now, if you think back, the four prosecutor who is quit the roger stone prosecution, one prosecutor who quit the mike flynn prosecu

andrew weissman with us and form attorney general for national security, mary mccord is back with us.bc contributors. i start with you. you weren't here when the judge was reacting. i spoke to your colleague when this really bombshell ruling came down, i guess bombshell for me, maybe it wasn't surprising for you. now we're heading into a trial on monday with the question of fraud settled, but these others big questions with the big impact on trump and his businesses very much on the line. what are you watching for? >> well, when i think about this now, i just think, you know, they're saying it's all over but the shouting. and i think that that's what's going to happen. there's just going to be a large back and forth in court. there's some fraud counts that still have to -- that will be heard at trial. but the main thing is going to be exactly what the penalty is. and it's not going to be -- i can feel it, i hate making predictions, but on the low side given the main count which was fraud, has already been decided. the judge has said i don't even need to hear that, i've already made a

jerry weissman has been covering this for decades. you have watched this market transform. it only makes sense if you take the recent guidance from the central banks literally. if you don't do that, then they don't make sense. central banks were hiking around the world until recently. some of them still are like the fed, but they shifted their guidance recently to talking about stopping the tightening cycle. what they didn't do was shift from that to talk about flexibility in 2024. they adopted a transition area guidance which is this higher for longer. i think the fed have been trying to guide the market toward having the market think that rates will stay high for long. if you believe this is the case, then yes, the 10 year at 4.6 makes sense. we know the fed can pivot often and often it does and if we see the economy weaken which we believe will happen, then in retrospect, these 10 year yields will not make sense. lisa: we are reaching new post cycle highs. this is amazing to watch, 4.67% and climbing. we cannot -- we don't have a crystal ball and can't see into the futur

to that point and piggybacking on what commissioner weissman ward said earlier, if we look at slide 31, i would encourage more actionable, you know, for example, instead of establish a school staffing model, let's implement one. let's get to where we want to get instead of recommend additional measures in 0.5, how about institute equitable measures to align like let's let's actually take the action, let's get there, let's get where we need to get taking into account everything that president bogus just said. we need to we need to stop talking about planning to make a plan. we need to actually get to the point of the action, right? yes important. okay so thank you for that. let me just again, as as we go back to the goals and what we wanted to leave with today. so to that last point, i'm hearing wanting as we're moving forward with with these proposals, wanting to be clear and maybe even wanting to have heard tonight some clarity, like what does this actually mean? so we actually have a part two of this workshop. we'll see if we get it to go a little bit more deep into what does it mean
