Anything that would potentially derail the case itself. but as you said, it does raise questions that very least an optics problem for the district attorney who s really been a target of not only political attacks but personal threats, violent threats, throughout her time overseeing this case. trump and his allies have jumped on the allegations despite the lack of evidence presented so far. trump weighed in himself yesterday attacking fani willis directly. so more fuel to the fire, more criticism as trump is trying to throw anything he can at the wall to undermine and erode trust in these investigations. as you know, this is one of several ongoing criminal investigations into trump. we ve seen a similar strategy from him before. this does raise questions for the district attorney, and the prosecutor s office says that they ll respond in court filings. we have yet to hear any sort of pushback on the record from the da s office so far. yet another twist. we ll keep on it. thanks for
Trumps fulton county co- defendants claimed that a court filing that willis and attorney nathan wade had an improper relationship and that they profited from working together. the document did not provide any evidence of wrongdoing. we have that: following this story for us. tell us what is happening here and how this could potentially impact the case in georgia. short-term it s creating an optics problem. fani willis has been under fire from political tags , she s been the entire time we are seeing this case. but right now we are seeing republicans and donald trump jump on the new allegations and use them to undermine the credibility of the entire case and as you mentioned, the defendant, mike roman, is trying to get the whole case against him thrown out. it remains to be seen if that will be the consequence here but in the short-term it s raising legitimate questions about why fani willis was not
Have been put forth in just th last couple of weeks clearly say that this kind of travel and it is kind of hospitalit is of the sort that should b disclosed. so, at the very least, there i an optics problem here tha john roberts surely does not welcome. this is someone who is the mos stellar defender of the courts institutional legitimacy, an this is not good for the legitimacy of the court righ now to have a member, basicall being wind and dying and takin around the galapagos in a supe yacht, when he s telling the rest of the public that hi preference is to drive aroun in an rv land yacht, and sta overnight in walmart parking lots apparently, he doesn t protest too much melissa murray, katie benner, i m gladly we have made it t cover that last topic. coming up, she was the targe of a massive anti-vaccin conspiracy theory, and the story was she was dead which is very much alive, an telling her story exclusivel to nbc news, when the 11th hou
On friday, that s by itsel incredibly telling this is a justice who incredibly, who doesn t really feel the need to explain himself on a regular basis - or ever but this is an unusual statement. he made this unusual statement because the optics of this are so bad i mean, this is a mult millionaire donor to gop causes, causes that often come befor the court. he s not necessarily a direc litigator, but he s very closely associated with thos who bring cases before the court. and he s trying the justic department around and privat jet, those kinds of flight probably should be disclosed there s some ambiguity about what the older regulations require. but then you ethics rules that have been put forth in just th last couple of weeks clearly say that this kind of travel and it is kind of hospitalit is of the sort that should b disclosed. so, at the very least, there i an optics problem here tha john roberts surely does not welcome. this is someone who is the mos
From ohio. you see the theme here. we re told now that the timing should be sometime after the zelensky speech. maybe between midnight and 3:00 a.m. now, you have people that are opponents of the bill that say this is no way to run a railroad. they re already critical of dumping more than 4,000 pages on members with just a couple of days to review it. if they pass it in the wee hours of thursday morning, that s another optics problem. but they do this all the time this time of year. the house of representatives would then meet thursday to pass the bill before the deadline, which is actually christmas eve. so they need to get this under the wire. chuck schumer said yesterday that yes, this bill is just coalesced together in the past couple days. most senators should be familiar with each of those provisions in the bill. they have talked about these things for months. there s always things that we find out. i ve covered the hill a long time that we find out days and
