electors are given marching orders. the plan expands across seven states, and we hadn t seen that. before so, we worked a bunch of sources and eventually, we were able to get a copy of that document, publish it, at the new york times. and it really is extraordinary in how reluctant but lawyers working on it is. i don t even necessarily endorse this, and this probably would fail in front of the supreme court. and i agree. it s controversial. we might have to keep parts of this very quiet. but they go ahead and implement it anyway, so, it s a key moment in the evolution of the fake electors plan. and we were able to expose it for the first time. let me ask you quickly, look. political reporting that the d.c. brand jury met again this week, focusing on trump safe america pack. testimony being from character was questioned about fundraising from january six. what are you hearing about why this grand jury is still
thirsty, hundred sgry and didn if he died. deputy commissioner of intelligence john miller has more on the legal process. the process has been a bit of a flash point. the family of jordan neely wanted to know why wasn t he arrested had night. prosecutors told police to hold off because they said we need more information. they wanted to hear the 911 calls, they wanted to see if there was any other video, they wanted to talk to the passengers on the train, ask them if they felt threatened. and finally on may 12 tth, they ordered his arrest and began the brand jury pr grand jury presentation. and the video is what he always wish you had. but the tape starts halfway
of the life. that is american 2023. that s only with the former president. i m sure if you prosecute a bill clinton or barack obama for a crime he would have to worry about the safety of the jurors. that s a trump specific issue. let me ask you this, andrew, what is your big picture takeaway of the manhattan da case right now? we just started the show talking with the latest. for laid and david pecker brought deborah bottle witness to the pro trump attorney, robert costello s testimony with a grand jury last week. but i think there s a life lesson to never i work with her dominance nbc. and i agree with her, one of the things that pecker is really on record doing is making it clear to the extent that costello tried to have the brand jury that this was all michael cohen s idea. and this key was the one who
malfeasance, even if it s as jill said it is unfounded. trump is going to make all kinds of claims. he makes all kinds of claims all the time, and he loses all the time. remember, he brought 60 different cases in connection with the election itself. nothing this poor person dead is going to make the claims any larger, or any smaller. he is going to do what he s going to do. as jill says, there is really no legal ramification. when and if the district attorney of fulton county goes to the indicting jury, the regular brand jury, she is going to present her case and they re going to vote on that. whatever this poor person, sad or didn t say, is going to be irrelevant. moreover, the level of misconduct that is required for a grand jury s enormous before a judge is going to disallow a prosecution, or, for example, grant a motion for a new venue. i think this is going to
this delay that they won t hear from witnesses until after the primary is over. this grand jury just convened will have to take time to decide who to issue subpoenas to. that s up to the investigative brand jury. and then they will have to be served and dates will have to be worked out. whether there was going to be a primary or not it would be at least a few weeks before witness testimony could get underway. important part about the timeline the. really appreciate it. thank you both. before we go to break a ickote. georgis voti starttoday. resints wi be ae to cast early ballots rough may 20th ahd of the proi marry onay 24th. next, if it s tuesday, the power of president trump gets put to test tomorrow. we ll pretty view this crucial contest. you re watching meet the press daily kbts. e press daily kbts who said only this is good? and this is bad?
