House. Im sure you have heard that. Ainsley Brooke Singman spoke exclusively with the former president last night and joins us now. What did he say . Thats right. I spoke with the former president last night who says his fourth indictment comes during a, quote, dark period for our country but he wont let it stop him President Trump telling me this is a consideration of the greatest and longest running witchhunt in american history. I will make America Great again. Now, late Last Night Trump was indicted by Fulton County georgia d. A. Fanny willis alongside 18 others that included personal attorney Rudy Giuliani. Former white house Chief Of Staff mark meadows and even kanye west former publicist. Traveled to the home of an Election Worker in Fulton County. These charges come after a years long criminal investigation over his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 president ial election in the state sparked by a phone call he made to georgias Secretary Of State back in December 2020 charge
Staff, mark meadows, and his postelection attorney, Rudy Giuliani. They are accused of engaging in a conspiracy to commit crimes intended to reverse trumps loss in georgia in 2020. The 98page indictment lists 13 State Charges against trump himself including racketeering as well as false statements. Prosecutors claim trump and his codefendants, quote, refused to accept that trump lost and knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election. District attorney fani willis wants the trial to start within six months. And unlike in Federal Court that trial could be televised. Lets begin at the courthouse in atlanta with cnns sara murray. And sara, this is a much more sprawling case both in terms of the number of defendants but also the nature and scope of the charges than what we saw in the Special Counsels case. Help lay it out for us. Reporter yeah, i think thats absolutely right. In these other federal cases we have seen donald trump largely charge
Biological mom came to court. it s upsetting that people would think i would want to make money off of any of my children. ainsley: that s what the family said. not the attorneys. my bad. steve: sean tuohy jr., the son of the tuohys he is just saying he just now found out about the conservatorship? here is he now. if is he saying he learned that in february i find that hard to believe. i went back to look at i was curious today to look at our family group texts and text toes see what things had been said and there were things back in 2020, 2021 if you guys give me this much i won t go public with things. i don t know if that s true. ainsley: he went on to say i hope he gets everything entitled to him legally. they will end the conservatorship if that s what they want. they only made money for the book that michael lewis wrote.
Randomly to go back and look at our family group texts and see what things have been said. there were things back in 2020, 2021 that were like if you guys give me this much then i won t go public with things. s.j., sean jr., is not named in this lawsuit. it s still very unclear what went wrong between the two sides to come to this being so public. of course this will come out i m sure in the court filings. now the tuohies are going to respond and need to account for all the money and where it went. did they answer the specific question whether it was an adoption or a conservatorship? or have they not addressed that in their response? they haven t addressed that. to be fair, cnn s reached out to them. they haven t even responded to us. this was from a local newspaper. but yes, they are not addressing specifically exactly the terms of what this guardianship, what it was. notable. brynn gingras, thanks so much. jessica. we are following all the latest on former president donald
Affront to our constitution, an affront to our founders. in affront to the suffragist wh, fought for women s voting rights. asked our kids in our family group texts what they thought t this moment, and they responded, almost immediately, and confirmed the worst. their faith in our democracy is shaken. laura: let me say, if your family s group is what is informing your speeches tonight on the house floor, yeah, everybody s faithur in it all should be shaken. well, it would be hilarious, right? if it wasn t all connected to this attempt at removing a duly elected president of the united states. republicans know these pitiful times are going to work, so they are taking a different and i think, much more effective path. the articles that we wrote after all of these hearings and all of these grand pronouncements and all of these crimes in plain sight, we get abuse power? with no real dates on this is
