How much legal trouble has Donald Trump really in?

Are the walls closing in?

Or are we about to find out that some people are in fact above the law?

Welcome to the Bullwark podcast I'm Charlie Sykes and this is the first installment of

a new companion podcast, The Trials of Trump that will be featuring every Thursday.

We all know the headlines, the federal and state prosecutors who may or may not be closing

in on the former president, the civil suits, the discovery, the indictments, but we thought

we'd take a deeper look and try to separate out the substance from the hype so every

week we'll bring you up to speed on the major legal issues surrounding the former president

in key Trump world players.

The sedition trials in DC, the New York indictment, the Jack Smith probes of January 6th in the

Mar-a-Lago document case.

The election probes in Georgia and the Gene Carroll trial that's going on right now,

we are partnering with the folks from law fair whose experts can cover the waterfront

or all of the current and potential prosecutions and civil cases.

So obviously on today's inaugural show, we're going to be joined by the one and only

Ben Wittis, editor-in-chief of law fair and fashion icon who joins us from London, England.

Good afternoon, morning, Ben.

Hello, Charlie.

You know, we saw each other in an undisclosed location the other day and now...

Phoenix, Arizona.

Yeah, I mean, it may have been Arizona.
