reality. then, from potential, national security concerns to possible chomsky s a trump grill. chuck rosenberg on what is missing from classified folders found at mar-a-lago. and he was among the very few people in the room where it happened. what i saw general flynn, i saw sydney powell. the overstock person, i ve never met him. but we know about what pat cipollone told the grand jury investigating january six today. when all in starts right now. good evening from new york, i m chris hayes, as you may have seen, president biden delivered a speech in philadelphia last. might be covered it live. speech outlining the threats to our democracy and what he called the battle for the soul of our nation. no it was, of course, a political speech as all addresses by a sitting president inherently are. but in the aftermath, one of the two major parties, dominated by the maga authoritarian faction the president was talking about, has been whining and moaning about how politically
well, i ve got to say, even for republicans we are tack, this is shockingly disingenuous. so, here s the actual story. according to brothers dennis and lee horton, on the world a, 1993, the rope for a joyride when they picked up their friend, a guy named robert lee. for they did not know was that leaf had just murdered samuel alamo and was currently being pursued by the police. they were quickly pulled over and all three men were arrested. now the police involved with a case have been accused of using a whole host of problematic tactics during the investigation. eyewitnesses to the murder changed their story after prosecutors tried to pin the crime on all three of them, the horton s as well. and the district attorney s case file, which was not made available until 2018, quote, lethal shooter, and a police note noting leave acknowledged his role, while seeming to clear the horton s. the horton brothers, who are black, refused a plea agreement, because they said they did not want to pl
but the documents case to me as a wildcard. i have to say, chris, the evidence looked very strong, there it s much more straightforward to prove the documents case, it s almost like a drug case, in a way. you saw the photographs and the documents out there, if you have top secret documents in your basement, you re in trouble. and that really is a lot easier to prove. that s a case that could go quickly, but we have a special master issue and there is still some signs that this is in an earlier stage, but that s the wildcard here. let s talk about that one. you wrote a piece about this basically say get reminded you of drug cases you d prosecuted. and rather than a case like a mastermind of a criminal organization of complex racketeering case, or financial crimes, or someone who is at the top of a drug organization working through a bunch of intermediaries in complex cases this is more similar to something that was more at the bottom, run-of-the-mill possession case. explain that. bec
all these three? i mean, obviously, the doj is not go to do anything, i think, before the election. what do you make of what could happen in georgia? what do you expect for the timeline for these three cases? georgia seems to be full speed ahead. that case is in its final stages. i think if there wasn t an election, we would see unindicted meant, multiple indictments, this. here it maybe early next year due to the election. that cases for certainly full speed ahead. the january six case seems to me to be an early stage because they re still, for example, we just had a seizure of a john eastman phone. i think they re starting in the core and working their way outward, and there s a lot there. as we saw in the january six committee, they had a great investigation, it looked like they were going to wrap up, and then there was more to chase down. we got more coming. so i think that is going to take a while.
they didn t want that individual, pale and was too toxic. when you look at the pulling for instance on things like should donald trump continue to be investigated, it s 50 7:40. if you look at the polling on roe, 60 30, 65, 35 in that neighborhood. if republicans i have come to the belief, and of course but you think, if republicans truly huddled together imbued their mission as a party to win a popular majority in the country, 51%, not use the senate in the electoral college to try to get in there or use threats and intimidation, it would be better for everyone, they would forced to abandon some of this because it genuinely is unpopular and they could compete under normal terms, and yet, they will not do that right now. i think that is definitely the case, i don t think it s impossible for republicans to win majorities. they re a lot of people with conservative views in this country. and not all of them are white,
