United states indicted on State Charges stemming from his and others efforts to overturn joe bidens election win in the State Of Georgia. I make decisions based on the facts and the law. We look at the facts and look at the law and bring charges. Having another indictment for him questioning the integrity of this countrys elections is what we are doing to a president that served this country. The governor of georgia i guess cant pardon. I dont know how you get out of this. Do i intend to try the 19 defendant in indictment together . Yes. The calendar is getting crowded. All the possible trials that the former president is facing. This case has a couple of twists on advice of counsel. You see some of the lawyers on whod advice they relied indicted. An abuse of power by angry democrats who decide the rule of law doesnt matter to them anymore. Its bigger than watergate. It goes to the foundation of democracy. This is very different and much more serious and much more troubling. Good morni
That new york or georgia, there is nothing he can do about it per se. the federal jurisdiction, then that question becomes a big one and suggest we are talking about through the campaign season again. this is like law school hypothetical. what if he wins the election, gets rid of the federal cases, can he be tried in state court? probably no, not while president. it s all in play. love the hypotheticals. i want to ask you. you made an interesting point, intentional or unintentional. you said this is the opposite of what a president should have been doing, which was quite literally the point ruby freeman made when she was testifying to the january 6th committee about what it was like to have a president attacking her. she is central in this case. sure. and ruby freeman is i mean, the best american you could imagine. she is african american woman. decides to help her neighbors vote. that s what she is trying to do.
Yes. maybe she would be safe at the police station. she did need protection from this kind of stuff. and that to me that s the sort of gut wrenching, heart breaking part of all of this. i mean, the citizenship of ruby freeman and her daughter is so clear through all of this. her daughter loving to be the face of the elections office in fulton county, helping her foalo citizens vote, happy to explain any questions or concerns with any voters receiving their absentee ballot applications or needing any other assistance from the voting office. she loved doing that. asked her mom to fill in as election worker. we need more folks to come in and work. and her mom decided she would come in and work on election day. all that up through and including ms. freeman turning to the police repeatedly because she needed someone to protect her. she trusted that they would protect her. but not asial person has been charged or as far as we can tell even investigated for what has
Claimed connections to the trump administration and the trump campaign. we have not heard back. when i say we ve tried multiple times in multiple ways to reach her, i really mean emphasis on multiple. but now this all raises a potentially kind of explosive question, right? these folks who were trying to get ruby freeman to confess to having committed election fraud, were they there talking to her just as private citizens, just as concerned citizens, or were they there on behalf of the trump campaign? did the trump campaign know they were doing this? did the trump campaign send them to try to get some confession out of ruby freeman? they said they needed to act within 48 hours? well, why? 48 hours away from that conversation was january 6th when the election were to be certified in congress. if they were trying to get supposed evidence of election fraud, some kind of confession to election fraud to stop that certification, well, 48 hours would be the relevant time frame. in terms of ans
Daughter have not been investigated by local police or by state authorities. federal agents have apparently monitored some of the threats, but they have made no arrests. quote, freeman showed hundreds of threatening e-mails and text messages to police in cobb county where she lives. she visited the fulton county police station, told officers about the threats while she was there. her phone buzzed nonstop with menacing calls. freeman says an officer answered more than 20 of the threatening calls. in response to freeman s at times panicked emergency calls to 911 cobb county officers meant to her home multiple times, but police officials never opened investigations into the threats that she faced. and yet for all that the reason we have that video of ruby freeman talking with the crisis manager lady who showed up on her doorstep to threaten her in an even more insidious way, the reason we have that tape is when the cop suggested they go to the police station and have that conversation, ru
