prosecution force paired down the major trial and watergate, the cover-up trial. where nixon us a coconspirator. ehrlichman, the top defensive adviser. mitchell lee. and some lesser lights. but it wasn t a packed courtroom. it wasn t 19. i think it was six or seven at one point. some of them got suffered and dro dropped later. the process sort them out. i don t believe that 19 people are going to trial in this case. some of them, i think, will likely flip. the prison system in georgia is notorious for being a hell hole. and nobody wants to spend a day there. as i say, i think some of them will cooperate. others may find legitimate reasons to sever. some might go to federal court
these two cases, both cases have been dismissed. the 2013 and 2014 cases, based on statute of limitation. and now, the new law that california allows individuals to have, that might have been borrowed by the statutes. that s a huge victory of this case. and the court of appeals saying the lower court got it wrong by determining that the operations did not owe a duty of care to the individuals. it s interesting to note, the appellate court says there s no case law to site. i think the decision whether the corporations are solely owned by michael jackson and the court, goes on to talk about how he could have restrained himself. he could have conducted himself in a different way, not to harm the boys at the time. i don t think this is a settled

invariably violates it, what happens then? i think a judge brings in a book at a state or county level, that s probably the same thing. i expect, a trump is not going to be to abide by these conditions. when he does violate it, we ll see an escalating response by the court to get him back in line. you re asking something that is not in his nature. it s going to come to a conflict. we tell a baby not to cry, in some respects, right? he said, it may accelerate. you re talking about judge chutkan who said, the more you talk, the faster this court case is going to come. maybe a little reverse psychology in that realm. imagine you re his lawyer, did anyone just shudder? think that you re his lawyer. how do i make sure my case is
and we saw those clips. what has it come to in the united states, when you have public figures speaking against the equal applications of the laws. hundreds of the insurrectionists have gone to jail. georgia can t be pardoned away. it s okay if the georgia case, bigger case, takes longer. i think we will see the jack smith move like lightning. that will put the federal case in the wind of the sails of some of the other prosecutions. there s overlaps in witnesses and people have been charged. look at mark meadows. he has not been charged. he has been charged in atlanta. if you have exposure in both, as subject or a witness, you make a
