There was an agreement between one or more persons to achieve the object of the conspiracy and that was set forth in the indictment. The government is really going to set forth a pretty narrow number of charges here and frankly, it would not be unexpected if they had a convention on some and not others conviction.

commission in the house of her position thank you so much for joining us. the former president arraigned today with your thoughts? i think it is a tremendous vindication of the rule of law in american democracy that we at least are starting off the principle that nobody is above the law, that people cannot get away with crimes and at use their fame cannot get away with crimes and at use theirfame or cannot get away with crimes and at use their fame or celebrity or former public office in order to nullify the prosecution. donald trump famously said that he could shoot someone on fifth avenue and it would make no difference to his supporters. that has proven to be fairly accurate prophecy about his supporters but not true of the american system ofjustice. you cannot get away with that just because you think that you exercised some kind of dictatorial or autocratic spell over the masses. i autocratic spell over the masses. i want to ask you on the indictment because it claims that preside
