M. The S. W. Media.

Hello and welcome to the Daily Beans for Monday, February 28, 2022. Headlines today, the

Manhattan D.A. has appointed a new attorney to run the Trump Organization investigation. The

world unites behind Ukraine. The Oversight Committee says some of the documents Trump's

stole from the White House are too sensitive to be described in public. The FCC is probing

the media and telecom sectors for Russian ownership ties in the wake of heavy sanctions,

including against Putin himself. British petroleum offloads 20% of its stake in Rosneft and

Sweden and Germany send weapons to aid Ukraine and Biden nominates Katanjee Brown Jackson

to the Supreme Court. I'm your host, A.G.

Hey everybody, as you know, I'm on vacation. Those are our headlines. You can Google them.

I'm going to have all of the links to the stories in my weekly research notes for patrons

and our newsletter. I think the news is pretty evident today, but some really great news.

I was certain that Biden would nominate Katanjee Brown Jackson on Friday and he did. That's

just incredible. I'm looking forward to a smooth confirmation process, hopefully.

Anyway, I have an incredible interview, teed up for you, with Barb McQuade, former U.S. Attorney

Professor Ola at University of Michigan. Her and I are going to discuss her piece, her 27

page piece out for just security, where she basically does a mock up of what charges against

the former president could look like because of his obstruction of an official proceeding

and his conspiracy to defraud the United States. So we're going to go over that. I hope

you enjoy the interview and I'm enjoying my little bit of a time off. So thank you for

that. Here we go. Let me cue this up. This is Barb McQuade.

Hey everybody, welcome back. Happy to be joined today by my friend, former U.S. Attorney
