Summary
Donald Trump posted on his social media platform that Georgia’s former Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan “shouldn’t” testify in grand jury proceedings this week regarding allegations that Trump attempted to overturn the 2020 election results in the state and some legal analysts are saying the post could be witness intimidation or tampering. Witness tampering is against the law and he was warned by a federal judge not to do so. Glenn says Trump is influencing a witness and according to Georgia state law is subject to felony charges. During Trump's arraignment hearing in Washington DC the magistrate judge told him he is not to commit any crime while on release. But he continues to tamper with witnesses. Glenn wonders if he is he inching closer to pre-trial detention?
