something to say. an attorney for kimberly guilfoyle is saying the subpoena is of no consequence because she has nothing to hide. and a source for eric trump says he s not losing sleep over it. should she be worried these subpoenas for their phone records are a prerequisite for a future call to testify? sure. as elie indicated, it doesn t mean they will. we ve seen people defy subpoenas. we ve also seen people like jim jordan say they don t care, they have nothing to hide, but then they turn around and refuse. as we talked about here before, this is an attempt this whole defense is an attempt to run out the clock to the midterms. the longer there s a delay, the less likely there s an ability to a requirement to actually testify. so step one is, i don t mind. step two is, no, i m not going to. step three is, here are my excuses why i don t come. step four might be some litigation, executive privilege, attorney-client privilege, legitimacy of congress. we ve seen all this stuff.
this is looking very hard at everything else that went on in the willard. the hotel has been asked to provide information for us, so we re in the process of doing our investigation. reporter: what could the hotel possibly tell the committee? maybe nothing about what specifically went on in those war rooms, but maybe a lot about who paid the bills, and that could help uncover a whole lot of folks who helped push the lies that led to an insurrection at the willard. don. tom foreman, thank you very much. joining me now, asha rangappa, cnn legal and national security analyst. asha, thank you for joining us. so you say the trump team s legal strategy was the epicenter of everything and that the january 6th insurrection was just the muscle. is that why investigators are so keen to find out what was happening in that war room? yes, don. the legal strategy that was led
that s illegal. you don t have to succeed to actually bring to be guilty of conconspiracy. but there s two elements of the conspiracy here. one is the lawyers coming up with a cockamamy, fake, unlawful scheme to snatch the election under the guise of the law from joe biden. and if that didn t work, then we ve got plan b, which is to bring the protesters to washington, and i think the question with kimberly guilfoyle is given that she raised money for the trump campaign and other areas, where did the money go? who brought the money together to pay for plan b, which of course when mike pence wouldn t go along with plan one, plan b came into effect, and america in this moment is lucky that it didn t succeed, and i really appreciate coverage of the fact that we might lose democracy the next round, don. that s why this is so important. yeah, yeah.
with kamala going on the road providing biden s success in the last year, he has a job she can excel at. she doesn t have to say anything. perfectly said. mary, two hours on the phone with xi to convince him not to partner up with russia? biden can t even convince his people of anything. you re right, he can t get manchin and sinema to do what he wants but he thinks the chinese are going to listen, got it. lynn? what s up, lynn? why do we demand the white house release the transcript of biden s phone call. if trump was still president, all of the democrats would be demanding it. that s right. why not? it s an honor and deals with the chinese. we need to know. national security is at stake. i doubt it was the perfect phone call. i don t mind, this is from lynn, i don t mind aoc whispering, how do we get nancy pelosi and kamala harris to whisper too.
